Chapter 43: The Wolf Is Coming
Chapter 43: The Wolf Comes
After getting the unicorn grass, Hou Dahai returned to his heart like an arrow. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info but before leaving, he has one more thing to deal with.
That's the kids who make him feel uneasy.
Such an obvious trap that several people were unaware of it before they were caught by the other party. This also proved the correctness of not allowing a few children to travel to the northern Central Plains in the first place.
If this is in the Central Plains, if Lao Hu doesn't ask for him. Based on the current experience and experience of these children, Hou Dahai thinks that if they still have a pair of underwear when they come back, they will insult his IQ.
Looking at the four children kneeling in front of him, Hou Dahai had the heart to teach a few lessons, but when he thought that it was for the unicorn grass after all, his tone softened.
"Ping'an, you always claim to be the smartest person in the villa, how do you feel about this incident?"
Faced with his father's question, Hou Ping'an couldn't wait to dig a pit and bury himself.
Dad, they have been looking for medicinal materials that they can't find for more than ten years, how can they find them so easily.
So far away from Tiannan County, and close to the sphere of influence of the Hundred Beast Alliance, where is there such a talkative woodcutter?
Monkeys, primates, when they see strangers or animals, who are not vigilant and stand on a high place, how can they be caught so easily?
When I first met a stranger, I didn't know how many people were hidden. also took the two brothers of the Yue family, and entered the strange tribe so openly, and I didn't know how to be vigilant. Moreover, who will bring home the truth of strangers who meet for the first time.
"It was because I wasn't vigilant enough and too gullible to trust people that I let Yue Niu and them get into danger. ”
"What else?"
"I was carried away by the unicorn grass, and I didn't think that this was set up by someone else. ”
"Anything else?"
And also......
There is nothing Hou Ping'an can't think of for the time being, so he can only be silent.
"There is nothing wrong with what you just said, but you forgot the most important point, pie does not fall from the sky. You always have to remember that there is no such thing as a world that does not work for nothing, and when something is 100% successful, you must remember to tell yourself that this is also the closest you are to failure. ”
"Your uncles and I have been looking for unicorn grass for more than ten years but haven't found it, and the tribal areas in southern Xinjiang almost come once a year. If I really have unicorn grass in this place, how can we not know ......?"
Hou Dahai's voice became lower and lower, as if he had thought of something important, and with a wave of his hand, he let a few children retreat, leaving Yue Laoqi and Qin Wu whispering in the house.
The few people who went out were visibly relieved. For this farmer, who never lost his temper, only people as close to his sons and nephews as them knew how terrifying he was when he started his temper.
Before it was dark, the people of the tribe, men and women, young and old, were busy with their work. The women are stockpiling the fruit and some plant stems, and the men are slaughtering their prey. Even some children who look less than ten years old have all kinds of things to do.
The real idlers of the entire tribe, except for the children in swaddling clothes, seem to be the only ones who are Hou Ping'an.
Knowing that they were storing food for the upcoming migration, Hou Ping'an didn't ask much. It's just that he is more curious about some of the stems on the women's hands. After all, these can be called food, and in some cases, identifying these things is saving lives. And for the means of saving his life, he, like everyone else, will not be idle.
Not only was he learning to identify with those women, but he also asked Qin Hao and the three of them to learn.
In case you admit your mistake in the future, there is someone around you who can remind you.
There are not many types of stems, that is, more than a dozen. After a short period of effort, Hou Ping'an basically learned to recognize.
These were these stems, mostly underground, and he still didn't know anything about the stems and leaves above.
Still, it doesn't matter.
As he learned to recognize them, there was a professional who was a hundred times more proficient in these things than they all did. The boy in the tiger skin.
At first, the young man didn't know what Hou Ping'an was doing, and thought that these northerners, who were similar to himself, wanted to rob them of their food.
When he knew Hou Ping'an's purpose, his eyes were full of contempt.
For tribal teenagers like them, identifying these most common stems was as easy as eating and drinking. As long as the child is over ten years old, he can basically recognize it with his eyes closed.
The young man's eyes of contempt and oysters were all smashed on Hou Ping'an and them. It wasn't until someone came to inform him that Lao Hu was looking for him that he took his eyes back.
Hou Dahai didn't know what they were discussing, and when Hou Ping'an recognized all the types of stems here, he hadn't come out of the simple wooden house.
The towering giant trees herald the early arrival of the night. Piles of bonfires were lit by people. When the pieces of meat interspersed with willow branches were put on the fire in pieces, it was time for supper.
It's not just about having dinner. The nocturnal beasts also began to look for breakfast when they woke up.
The smell of gluttonous meat is carried into the woods with the breeze. A slight howl and shout followed the smell of meat to the fire.
The people of the tribe have long been accustomed to it.
It has been several days since they came out, and Hou Ping'an, who fed the war horse to the beasts, is slowly getting used to it.
The only one who is not used to it is Hou Dahai.
Maybe I can't say that I am not used to it, but I can only say that they have not heard this kind of voice for many years, and suddenly they feel a little strange.
Suddenly, a wolf howl appeared above everyone's heads. It was as if through the fog of the underworld, announcing the coming of death.
Predators such as tigers, leopards, and pythons, the people of the tribe are not worried. Most of them are solitary creatures.
But the wolf is not, this is known as the most vengeful carnivore, and it has always lived in groups.
Young warriors are naturally fearless, and as long as they hold tightly, the wolves rarely take the initiative to attack. But the tribe was not only the warriors, but also the old men, the women, and the children.
Those who could afford to take up their weapons took up their arms and watched vigilantly beyond their makeshift fences.
Even Hou Dahai, who had been discussing things in the house, walked out of the hut after hearing the wolf howl, and unconsciously put his hand on their side-worn weapons.
Only, why is there only one wolf howl?
Isn't the wolf's howl just to summon its companions? Now what about its companions? Where are its companions?
Its companions are among the tribes.
When Hou Ping'an heard this voice, he was not as nervous as others. His eyes are not as full of worry as others.
There was only doubt in his eyes, wondering why the wolf came?
