Chapter 12: Destroy the Predators
Seeing that the new boss was asleep, the "households" no longer dared to be as noisy and frolicking as before, and tried to keep their voices down and continue to do their own things silently.
After sleeping for eight or nine hours, David woke up, and by this time the "household" who had gone out hunting had already returned.
Manman personally cut the back of the neck of the "gecko" that was killed by David into small pieces with a gray-white stone knife, placed it on a round yellow leaf, and presented it to David respectfully.
David thought of one thing at this time, and walked to the "kitchen" with the red pieces of meat, that is, the two large white stones that cut the meat, and then asked Muma to help pick up some hay and sticks.
David's *** was very sharp, and he cut the wooden sticks that were originally used as weapons into thin sticks and put them on the hay, and then took out a lighter and lit the hay.
Soon, a small bonfire illuminated the small half of the cave.
Seeing this, the "households" first shrank back in horror, and when they saw David and Muma with calm faces, they gradually gathered around, first bowed down to David again, and then under the leadership of Manman, they sang and danced happily around the bonfire like crazy.
Usually they don't see much fire in person, and it's all caused by thunder, which is a terrible thing for them.
I didn't expect David to be able to draw out the "Heavenly Fire" and control it within a small range, his boss is really awesome!
David squatted by the campfire, skewered some pieces of meat with a thin stick, and began to roast, and the aroma of roasted meat suddenly filled the cave.
When he finished eating the "gecko" barbecue that felt like earth chicken but tasted a little like two small pieces of beef mixed with a small piece of salmon meat, he realized that all the monkeys, including Muma, had already quieted down, with their mouths open and their eyes open.
"Muma, lead everyone to cut the meat, and we'll roast it together!" David said to Muma with a smile and handed *** to the other party.
This *** is not a small knife for David, and in the hands of Muma, it is equivalent to a small "fruit knife", but it can still be used for some work such as cutting meat.
Wooden Ma often eats barbecue in the human base, but because he has eaten it, he knows that it is much more delicious than raw meat, and when he heard David's explanation, he immediately happily led a few "households" to cut some meat with a knife, and skewered it with a stick like David, ready to start teaching everyone to barbecue.
He instructed the other households to chop sticks with stone knives and throw them into the fire to enlarge the bonfire.
After the big skewers of barbecue were grilled, the first thing to try was Manman, and when he took the first bite of the barbecue, he burst into tears.
Next, each "household" was given a piece of grilled meat.
After they took their first bite of the barbecue, they all reacted in the same way as Manman, oh my God! There are still so delicious things in this world!
Follow the boss and eat fragrant meat! David's status in everyone's hearts has been raised countless times.
At this time, Mu Ma looked at the elated "households", seemed to think of something, and frowned.
Seeing this, David pulled Muma aside and asked, "What's wrong?" ”。
Muma thought for a moment, lowered his voice and said, "Huhu, Kaka's, enemy, can't, excessively, help." Then he tilted his head and thought for a while, then continued: "But, I, promise, help, they, you, kill, 'Siva'." I, integrity. ”
"'Siva'? Vicious? David asked.
"Yes, like it, bigger." Muma said, pointing to the "gecko" meat piece hanging on the wooden frame.
David said, "Kill 'Siva,' and then we'll go home." ”
Hearing that he was home, Muma clapped her hands gently, and her eyes bent into crescent moons.
Next, David roughly learned that "Siwa" is a much larger "gecko" animal, and there are two of them entrenched in the nearby underground river, and often run into the hole with a waterhole below to harass the "household", and if you are unlucky, the "household" who goes out will meet the two plague gods.
However, in order to survive, the "households" must go out hunting, but all the "households" together are not enough for one "siwa" to fight, and they cannot catch each other with a net bag, because the "siwa" is infinitely powerful and can tear the net pocket at once, and for this reason the lives of the "household" warriors are often sacrificed in vain.
David asked the Mulma interpreter to ask Manman if he had been to "Siva" recently.
Manman said that he had slept more than 100 times without seeing "Xiwa", and according to the activity pattern of "Xiwa", it was very likely that it would appear in the near future, so everyone was many times more frightened than usual when they went out hunting.
Through Muma's explanation and David's own analysis, he determined that because "Huhu" and "Kaka" both live on the sunny side of Proxima Centauri B, and they sleep every 10 Earth hours, each time for about 10 hours, they both use "sleep" as the unit of time. One "sleep" is equivalent to about 10 hours.
David thought about it for a moment and decided to booby trap Siva.
Next, David asked everyone not to go out to hunt for a while, and to eat the ingredients in the "kitchen" and in the cage for a while.
David then asked Manman to direct his men to tie several large pieces of "platypus" meat to a long rope and throw them into the pool, and the other end of the rope, through the gap in the small hole, extended into the hole, and tied to a large wooden bench.
After waiting for several solar days, and seeing no movement on the rope, Manman sent the monkey down to check on it, and the "platypus" meat was intact.
Fortunately, there is still food in the cave, and because barbecue meat is more digestible than raw meat, it can give everyone more energy, and the consumption of meat is less than before, so there is no need to send hunters out to forage for food in a short time.
However, the wood is consumed quickly, and almost everything that can be burned in the cave is used for barbecue, and the second cage is ready to be dismantled.
Of course, in order to save wood, David would extinguish the fire every time he waited for everyone to roast the meat.
On this day, in order to save the liquefied gas in the lighter, David found a string, two small wooden sticks, and a small wooden board to make a cross-shaped tool for drilling wood for fire, and planned to drill wood for fire.
He dug a small hole in a piece of wood, placed some dry wood chips in the small hole, taught Muma to insert the vertical wooden stick on the fire-making tool, held a small wooden board with a small groove in the palm of his left hand, and gently pressed the top of the wooden stick through the wooden board, and then pulled the horizontal wooden stick with a thin rope tied like a violin bow with his right hand.
After a while, a trace of green smoke came out of the small hole in the wood, and Muma was overjoyed to see this, and continued to turn the stick, and finally led the flames.
David saw the smoke and flames swinging behind him, and suddenly thought of something.
So I looked up and looked carefully at the opposite wall of the cave, and finally found that more than a meter above the wall of the cave in front of me, there was a small hole the size of a basketball, and it seemed that fresh air was pouring in from there.
Manman was also very interested in the flames, and when Muma blew out the flames, he came over and asked to play as well.
Muma had no choice but to stretch out the tools, and Manman happily took them, picked up the remaining sawdust on the ground, put them in the small hole in the wood, and fiddled with Muma's example for a while, and also learned to drill wood to make fire.
Mu Ma watched intently as Man Man successfully lit the fire, and a trace of unhappiness drifted through the corners of his eyes.
As Manman continued to study the fire-making tools with great interest, David caught a glimpse of the large wooden bench at the entrance of the cave moving slightly, and then suddenly rushed to the entrance of the cave and got stuck in the round stone, and then "snapped" and the rope was broken.
So he immediately turned to Muma and said, "Muma, let them move the stone away, put down the ladder, and only put a small half!" Let a few households hold on to the top of the ladder to keep us from falling. ”
Muma hurriedly ordered a few "households" to do the same, and then picked up David and went down the soft ladder to the top of the bottom hole.
At this time, David saw that there were two "Siwa" more than two meters long below, and they had eaten up the bait, they heard the movement overhead, lay on the shore, watched the soft ladder go down, and then saw two monkeys, one big and one small, looking at him with a smile.
The shape of "Siwa" is really similar to that of "Gecko", but it is larger.
David had already taken out a pistol and loaded a good bullet, and he didn't want to make too much eye contact with the other party at this time, so he raised his hand and said, "Bang!" Smack! "Four shots, a smooth end to the battle.
Muma ordered the "households" above to lower the soft ladder and carry David down to the bottom of the cave.
Man Man boldly leaned in to take a look, and climbed down with a few "Huhu" warriors, walked to the side of "Siwa", and after confirming that they were indeed out of breath, he and several "Huhu" bowed down to David again, and then happily danced around the corpse of "Siwa".
At the "celebration feast" held in the water cave, Muma, David and Manman sat by a large log and watched the other "households" sing and dance around the two bonfires on the shore of the waterhole, or sit around the open space to eat fragrant "Xiwa" kebabs.
At this time, Muma turned his head and said to Manman in the card control language: "The god of Weiwei said that he is going to the east. ”
Hearing this, Manman hurriedly said, "Isn't the gods willing to continue to bless us?" ”
Muma said, "The gods have a big deal to do, and that is to find a way to destroy the demons. Now that your greatest threat to the underground has been eliminated and you have learned to use the Sky Fire, there is nothing to be satisfied with. ”
Man Man showed a regretful expression: "The gods want to go, of course I don't dare to stop it, you want to go to the east, you can take the waterway." ”
Muma said, "The gods also have this idea. The divine power of the god is actually greater than what we have seen, he can fly, he can enter the sea, and he can kill all demons in an instant, but because he was framed by the demon king with trickery, most of his mana was sealed. Now the demons are taking advantage of the fact that the divine power of the gods has not fully recovered, looking everywhere and trying to kill the gods, and we may be discovered by the demons when we take the waterway. ”
