Chapter 51: "The Wisdom of Man"
"Whoop~Whoa~"
A Liaodong jackal, which was originally competing with his companions to devour roe deer, suddenly screamed and rolled on the ground, as if he wanted to relieve the pain in his body in this way.
The other two jackals seemed to be frightened by their companion's appearance, and quickly jumped to the side, whispering to their companion with a "woo, woo", as if asking what was wrong with it.
The howling Liaodong jackal lowered its voice as it screamed, spitting blood foaming intermittently in its mouth, leaving only its limbs still struggling on the ground.
At this moment, another Liaodong jackal also began to scream, probably because the pain was too severe, it actually stretched its head to its stomach, biting its belly and tearing it hard, as if it couldn't feel the pain of being torn in the stomach.
Li Hang on the tree was stunned by this creepy scene, he had been paying attention to the whole process, he didn't know what was going on, this unknown fear frightened his whole body The hair on his body exploded, and the already fluffy rabbit looked like a ball of hair.
With a piercing pain, the second Liaodong jackal was already dying in a pool of blood under it before it could completely tear open its stomach.
The last jackal finally couldn't take it anymore and ran away with a wail in its throat.
"Whoosh!"
"Wow~~"
Before it could run far, an arrow from a farther away shot into its body with lightning speed, probably because it was too far away and its strength was about to run out, but the arrow that hit the Liaodong jackal did not cause much damage to it.
But after the horrible scene just now, the jackal had become like a frightened bird, howling miserably in its mouth, and jumping around like a headless fly.
"Whoosh!"
Another arrow came over, and this arrow was also lucky, it actually hit the hind legs of the Liaodong jackal, although it did not shoot through, but it made one of its hind legs no longer able to exert force, and could only limp into the dry grass.
"Tread, Learn"
A tall man ran quickly in the distance.
He had a messy little braid and a few long pheasant tail feathers stuck in his head. The body was wrapped in several layers of the fur of an unknown beast, and only the bare thick arms were exposed, and the longbow in his hand seemed to be the culprit who shot and injured the Liaodong jackal.
When Li Hang saw the appearance of the human being, he hurriedly hid himself in the canopy and remained motionless, for fear that the man would find out and shoot him with an arrow.
The man ran behind the Liaodong jackal with two feather arrows on his body, threw the longbow aside, pulled out a broad-bladed short knife from the leather sheath on his waist, and at the moment of pulling it out, his waist and abdomen were forced, driving the muscular swollen arm and swinging it hard.
"Whew......"
As soon as the jackal screamed in the middle of the scream, the man chopped off his head from the neck.
Li Hang, who was hiding in the middle of the tree and only showed his two eyes, happened to see the picture of the jackal being cut in two by the man, and his body was stiff and seemed to lose consciousness.
“****”
The man muttered a language that Li Hang didn't understand, as if he was complaining about something, and at the same time wiped the short knife on the body of the Liaodong jackal, put it in front of his eyes to see if there was a gap, and then picked up the longbow and walked to the two dead corpses.
When he got closer, he saw that one of the jackals had been bitten in the belly, and his mood seemed to be even worse, so he threw the two dead jackals on his shoulders and fixed them with a longbow hanging from his chest.
Then he lifted the dead roe deer, groped in its stomach for a while, took out two women's fist-sized balls and threw them on the ground, slowly returned to the decapitated Liaodong jackal, carried it with his other hand, and walked into the distance.
Li Hang didn't dare to breathe out when the man came over, and it wasn't until he walked away that he took a hard breath and calmed down.
I waited a little longer.
Li Hang climbed down the trunk of the tree, walked to the two balls that the man threw away, and stared at them curiously.
These are two ice balls that seem to have been frozen in blood, and a deep knife mark can still be seen on the surface of the melted water.
Suddenly, the slightly smaller ice blood ball exploded, and several pieces of Xiaoice hit Li Hang, startling him a lot, and after jumping away a few steps in a hurry, he found that he was not injured.
Since it was just a false alarm, he relieved himself and walked towards the place where the snowball exploded, where there was still a crooked branch.
After studying the twig with a rope sharpened at both ends, he finally understood what was going on.
He simulated such a scenario in his mind.
The man found a few pliable branches, sharpened the two ends, and then bent the branches into a circle with force, and then tied the ends together with a rope, and a small circle was done, and he concocted several similar circles.
When the temperature was at its lowest at night, he froze the small circles into the blood water, causing them to slowly solidify in the blood ice cubes.
After it was frozen, the man took out the blood and ice cubes, cut them into small balls that could be easily swallowed by wild beasts along the edges of the small circle, and finally cut the rope frozen in the ice balls with a knife, and in this way, a murder weapon that killed people without seeing blood was made.
The next day, he cut open the belly of a roe deer he caught, took out the inside, put the murder weapons in it, and then sprinkled blood all the way, setting up the scene as a scene of a roe deer dying of excessive blood loss, and then waited quietly.
Sure enough, as he expected, after a while, a black bear came, but before it could eat a few bites, three more Liaodong jackals also followed, fortunately, Li Hang had been in the tree when he came, and the interaction with the beasts was only treated as a small animal like a squirrel by the man.
Like Li Hang, he watched the scene of the three Liaodong jackals driving away the black bear, and secretly cursed the black bear's waste in his heart.
You know, a black bear is worth far more than three jackals.
But he didn't dare to act rashly, for fear of attracting the siege of the three jackals, although he was very confident in his martial arts, but he didn't want to be injured for this benefit, there was no special medicine for tetanus and rabies in this era, and the fur of the three jackals was not bad.
Then there is the scene that Li Hang saw. Two of the three Liaodong jackals swallowed ice blood cells, which slowly melted in their warm stomachs.
One of them melted a little faster, and the spiky branches that had been cut off the rope stiffened violently under the restraint of the puck, and the spiky ends pierced the jackal's stomach directly, causing its painful injuries in an instant.
The other one melted a little longer, and finally broke out, but this fierce Liaodong jackal had already lost too much blood and died before it could bite through its stomach.
The third jackal, which was lucky enough not to eat the ice blood ball, was frightened and was easily killed by the hunters waiting on the side.
In the end, if he didn't really look down on the small animals in the trees, with his archery skills, Li Hang would have been hit hard even if he didn't die.
He shuddered, feeling that the already biting cold winter seemed to add a little coldness.
"Is that the wisdom of the hunter?"
