Identifying and marking swamp areas is not a purely manpower-based carpet inspection, and there are also clever means available.

For example, what they are doing now is to put behind the elk herd.

As a large herbivore, the adult male of the elk can reach a body length of up to 2 meters, a shoulder height of 1.4 meters, and a weight of up to 250 kilograms.

Where the elk herd is unimpeded, the centaurs can pass; If there is a place where elk will sink in when they pass by, people and horses will definitely fall into it.

But where the elk herd is staggering and trudging through it, there is a high probability that people or horses will still fall into it.

Because the main hooves of the elk are wide and can be separated, fleshy, and the skin aponeurosis is connected between the two main hooves, its ground pressure is small, and the traffic capacity of the swamp environment is stronger than that of humans or horses.

"Shaojun." Ou Kang asked in a low voice, "How does the moose recognize the frustration that no one can identify?" Is it possible that mooses are smarter than people? ”

"Ah~"

Ou Kang's question dragged back Ou Xing's thoughts, which were wandering and pondering when he could make up the telescope, a reconnaissance artifact.

"I don't know why the moose can recognize frustration. However, I suspect that it may be because the eyes of the moose are brighter than those of humans, or the nose is more sensitive. ”

"It must be so." The district musician on the side whispered, "How can an elk be smarter than a human? After Shaojun took everyone to the elk group, this kind of thinking is called wisdom. ”

"I see." Ou Kang was thoughtful.

Ou Kang and Ou Le, the two humming generals who have followed him for a long time, and all the students of Ou's private school, Ou Xing has great patience and is always willing to give them more guidance. These young people are the basic disks of the district star.

Ou Xing looked around, looked at each other with the clansmen, and said softly:

Xun Zi said: Those who fake horses are not profitable, but thousands of miles; Those who fake the boat are not able to water, but the rivers. A gentleman is not different, and he is good at things. ”

"Whether the moose discerns frustration, it relies on wisdom, clear eyes, or a sharp nose. To be able to fake the ability of the moose and use it for me, this is the gentleman's trip to be good at fake things. The second and third sons should be remembered and thought of. ”

"Yui." Everyone bowed their heads in unison and whispered in response.

"If a man dies in despair, his relatives and friends will lay him down; If the moose dies in despair, who will pay tribute? ”

Ou Xing continued to teach them.

"In the elk herd, there may also be individuals who can't recognize frustration and fall into it, but such individuals, after falling into frustration, have already died and cannot be seen. Therefore, in the eyes of people, moose have the ability to recognize frustration. This is survivorship bias, two or three sons, should be remembered and considered. ”

"Yui."

"Shaojun!" Ou Le lowered his voice, but couldn't hide his excitement and whispered, "Right front, far away in front right, there is an elk stuck in the frustration pit." Shaojun really has a heavenly constitution in his mouth and follows his words! ”

Ou Xing squinted his eyes vigorously and looked in the direction of Ou Le's finger, but he still couldn't see it very clearly.

Over the years, he often read and wrote at night. The oil lamp was not bright enough, and Ou Xing's eyesight was somewhat affected, and he guessed that he already had mild myopia.

Ou Xing's tears narrowed out, but he still didn't see why. He simply closed his eyes and gave up treatment.

"Good." Ou Xing said softly, "When the moose group is farther away, we will go over and mark this frustration pit clearly." As for the elk, which fell into frustration, they were shot first, and then dragged back to the camp - in the evening, we roasted and ate! ”

"Hooray!" The crowd cheered in low voices.

This time, the members of the district family who went out with Ou Xing and carried out the site selection operation of the hunting ground were a total of 32 people, all of whom were fifteen or sixteen years old. One elk, enough for everyone to eat.

Ou Xing gently squeezed the horse's belly with his calves, and his hands were slightly loose, driving the horses under the seat to move forward slowly.

"Let's go, follow the hoof prints of the elk, and go over and see."

"Yui." A crowd of centaurs followed.

"White elk, it's white elk!" On Ou Xing's side, Ou Le shouted excitedly again, "Shaojun, it's a white moose that has fallen into the pit of frustration!" ”

Hearing this, everyone looked carefully in the direction of the frustration pit.

"What a white moose!" / "It's a white moose, that's right! / "Heaven is auspicious! ”

Ou Xing rubbed his eyes, but he still didn't see it very clearly. But he could feel that everyone was agitated, the speed of progress was involuntarily accelerating, and the air was filled with the smell of excitement.

"Calm down, control the speed of the horse, and move slowly!" Ou Xing scolded in a low voice.

"Yui."

After beating the horse and walking to a distance of about fifty paces in front of the pit, Ou Xing finally saw clearly that it was indeed a white moose trapped in the pit.

A white moose from the neck onwards, with a layer of mud hanging from the torso, and limbs that had fallen into frustration and could not move.

It is estimated that before falling into this depression pit, this unlucky white elk had also fallen into other depressions, so it was wrapped in a layer of mud.

The previous misstep, White Elk saved himself with hard work. But this time, I'm afraid it wasn't so lucky.

As they got closer and closer to the white elk, the clansmen could not hide their excitement, and their breathing became heavier and heavier. Ou Xing's heart did not fluctuate.

Although the crossing, especially in the form of soul piercing, has brought a great impact to Ou Xing's materialist beliefs.

However, Ou Xing, who grew up watching "Man and Nature" and listening to the voice of teacher Zhao Zhongxiang, did not believe that an individual elk with albinism could have what kind of great power it had.

"It's not a unicorn phoenix." Ou Xing muttered quietly in his heart.

"Zi is silent, and the strange force is confused." Ou Xing glanced at everyone and said, "White elk and black elk, but they are all moose." Caught in the pit of frustration, the white elk that is difficult to protect itself, can he have any divine power to protect others? ”

As he spoke, Ou Xing had already stepped up to the white elk. He turned his horse's head to the white elk, which was in the pit of depression, leaned over, pointed his whip at it, and said:

"If you don't move, I'll have someone rescue you with bamboo poles and ropes; If you move, I'll shoot you with an arrow, and then drag out the frustration and roast it. Do you understand? ”

The wind rose, and the white elk nodded to Ou Xing again and again.

"Hooray!"

"Elk, thousands of herds, digging grass roots, where they become mud" - "Naturalist"
