Crossing to Live in the Wilderness Plains

After resting with Aze in the tribe for a period of time, Chen Qi put it on the agenda to go out to catch live animals. The place to go out this time is a bit far away, and he probably needs to sleep on the plains overnight, so the people who went together There are several.

The place where a few people came this time is a colony of snow geese. It is not close to the Chishui River, and the terrain is higher than other places. It is probably because it is not near the water source. There will not be large carnivores nearby. It is snow geese. Great place to hatch eggs after each migration.

A few people lay quietly in a bush and observed the situation of the snow geese. It was still early in the day, and a group of snow geese had just left to hunt for food, but there was still another snow goose guarding each den. It was already summer. For a while, birds with wings came back earlier than other animals, and the eggs of snow geese were almost ready to hatch these days.

"Should we catch the live ones or shoot them directly?" Ah Shu touched the wooden bow in his hand, his eyes flashed with excitement. It was his first time to participate in the task of catching birds. Birds with wings are very difficult prey for orcs, and their feathers are not as easy to strip as other mammals, and the meat they get after cleaning is not much, so unless the orcs It is really impossible to find prey, otherwise it would not have hit the bird at all.

Chen Qi looked around at the surrounding situation. The habitat of snow geese is very large. Although the distance between the outer dens of snow geese and the dens is quite a distance, the number of sightings is still very considerable. Don't look at the birds. Their appearance is not as threatening as other carnivorous animals. Once they fight and are besieged by snow geese, they will not get any benefits.

"Let's approach slowly, try not to attract the attention of too many snow geese." Chen Qi warned.

Their mission this time is mainly to steal the eggs of snow geese that are about to hatch. Adult snow geese will be caught if they can be caught alive, and if they can't be caught, they will hunt a few and go back to make food.

Several people dispersed. They had caught red-billed queleas in the tribe before, and they also had a little experience in catching birds. At this moment, in addition to the necessary wooden bow, everyone was holding a long bow in their hands. Long net bag, the net bag is woven with tough rope, once the toughness is in the snow goose, there is absolutely no need to worry that the other party will break free.

"You follow me." Aze pulled Chen Qi's wrist to protect him behind his back, then leaned forward and approached the nearest snow goose nest under the cover of grass.

In addition to the orcs, there are also a few wild foxes who are also eyeing these snow-white eggs. These wild foxes are smaller than adult snow geese. They hide on the other side of the grass, so they didn't find the orcs at all. trace.

The wild fox lay on its stomach and slowly approached its target. One of them pounced on the adult snow goose that was hatching in the nest, as if trying to bite off the goose's neck with its sharp teeth.

The snow geese were very vigilant. When the wild fox rushed over, they suddenly flapped their wings and stood up. The huge wings knocked the petite wild fox to the ground. The wild fox rolled a few times on the spot and stabilized itself Stand still, not hurt by this sudden change.

The snow goose spread its wings and used its body to protect the snow-white eggs behind it. It seemed to be irritated by the wild fox, and pointed its sharp beak at the wild fox. Once the wild fox made a move to pounce, it must give it a slap. Mouth let it taste great.

A few snow geese that were hatching eggs in the distance also noticed the situation here. They raised their heads and hooted, but they did not come to help. There were also eggs behind them that needed protection. Wild foxes usually only stayed in a nest of eggs. Steal one or two. Although I hate wild foxes, I am worried that once I leave the range of my nest, the eggs will be stolen by other wild foxes.

After the wild fox attracted the attention of the snow goose, the other two wild foxes approached slowly behind, biting an egg neatly with their mouths and wanted to leave. Flying directly over, the wild fox that attracted attention quickly stepped forward, biting a snow-white bird's egg, without fighting, and ran directly into the tall grass not far away.

The other two wild foxes escaped from the attack of the snow geese and fled separately. The nest with five or six eggs was reduced by half. The snow geese chased angrily for a distance and then returned angrily. The mate has gone out to look for food. If it leaves the range of the bird's nest, I'm afraid it will lose the remaining eggs.

A Ze broke the neck of the wild fox that just ran into him, and caught the bird egg that fell from its mouth with his other hand.

The fur color of this wild fox is a bit mixed, gray-yellow and gray-yellow, not good-looking, but the fur is smooth and feels good to the touch.Chen Qi helped put the breathless wild fox into the backpack, carefully put away the intact bird eggs, and said with a smile: "Although the fox's fur is not very pretty, it should be good for making a scarf. I'll give it to you when I get back." You make one." In winter, Aze has always disliked the animalization of the whole body, and the neck is still not covered with fur. Chen Qi persuaded the other party several times, and then he had no choice but to make some warm scarves for Aze.

"If you like fox fur, I'll hunt you some nice ones next time."

While the two were talking, there was already a commotion among the snow geese. Chen Qi looked intently, and saw that Ah Shu had already wrapped a snow goose in a net bag, and Ah Jing was following the other party and was packing the bird's eggs in an animal skin backpack. , there was probably a majestic giant wolf god standing next to it, those snow geese didn't dare to rush up directly, but began to slowly gather around here, huge birdsong one after another, spreading towards the center of the snow geese group, Snow geese already started to circle in the sky.

After an attack by a flock of red-billed queleas, the orcs felt a bit shadowy about large flocks of birds, especially the snow goose was dozens of times the size of the red-billed queleas, and its attack power was also stronger than that of flocks. The height is much higher, and several people just want to make a quick decision.

Chen Qi pulled Aze's sleeve and pointed in another direction. A Shu and the little wolf cub attracted the attention of the snow geese, and they could easily approach the bird's nest in the other direction.

A Ze didn't use a net to catch them, and directly shot and killed several nearby snow geese guarding the bird's nest with a bow and arrow, and helped pick up the eggs while guarding Chen Qi.

When the snow geese in the distance reacted to the situation here, Aze had already picked up the injured snow geese, carried Chen Qi on his back and evacuated the area. of.

"Ah, pain, Ah Jing, are you alright?" Ah Shu's head was densely covered with a thick layer of snow clouds, the snow geese swooped down, and the net bag in Ah Shu's hand had lost its original function. He could only wave randomly in the air, even though he had turned into a beast and wanted to tear off those attacking snow geese, but the movements of the snow geese were obviously much more flexible than he imagined, Ashu's attack did not cause much damage to the opponent at all. The snow geese caused several wounds on his hands and face instead.

The little wolf cub has been protecting Ah Jing's surroundings, and the already ruthless snow geese have already killed red eyes. Fortunately, the little wolf cub has become thicker and thicker after moulting, and he was not injured except for the messy hair .

Ah Jing carried the animal skin backpack full of bird eggs behind his back, casually picked up the snow geese that had been killed by the little wolf cub next to him, and patted the little wolf cub on the back. Upon receiving the signal, the huge tail swept forward, forcing the snow geese that had gathered around to retreat for a certain distance, and then retreated behind Ah Jing.

While running, Ah Jing shouted to Ah Shu who was still surrounded by snow geese: "Let's go."

Ah Shu didn't expect Ah Jing and the little wolf cub to run so neatly, cursed in a low voice, and ran after them.

A Shu probably attracted most of the firepower of the snow geese, and the overwhelming snow geese chased after them. Finally, they got through several tall grasses before finally getting rid of the pursuit of the snow geese, and waited for them to go back to rest last night. At the time of the meeting, Chen Qi had already prepared lunch.

Originally planning to complain to Chen Qi as soon as he came back, Ah Shu, who left A Jing and the little wolf cub and ran away first, forgot everything when he saw the delicious food, and leaned forward happily.

A Ze pulled out a clod of mud from under the carbon pile and threw it to the other party, A Shu reflexively reached out to take it, and then threw it on the ground, complaining: "Why did you throw me a hot stone? "

A Ze took the steaming bird's leg from Chen Qi, "This snow goose is mine, you can eat it yourself."

"It's enough to break the mud." Chen Qi pointed to A Jing who had already automatically and consciously pulled out another mud clod, "Look at how A Jing did it."

Because he was worried that it would be hot, Ah Jing took out his own bone knife and knocked on the mud block a few times, the mud block split open, and the golden meat was revealed after a layer of cattail leaves were removed. The scent went straight into the noses of several people.

It was the first time Ah Shu saw this kind of food, looked up and down curiously, tore off a small piece of snow goose meat wrapped inside and put it in his mouth, wondering what seasoning Chen Qi put in it, It is very different from the usual grilled and boiled meat. As soon as the tender and smooth meat is in his mouth, he can't help but squint his eyes. Ah Shu has long put aside the matter that Ah Jing left him before, happily After enjoying a delicious lunch, I couldn't help feeling a little annoyed that I didn't take the opportunity to hunt more snow geese just now.

Ake came back after they had almost finished their lunch. There were two huge animal skin backpacks hanging behind him, one was filled with bird eggs, and the other was filled with hunted snow geese. There are also a few snow geese that are still alive and kicking with their mouths and wings tied up around their waists.

Seeing A Ke who was neatly dressed and returned by Dafeng, A Shu opened his mouth wide in surprise, and asked incredulously, "Didn't you get noticed by those snow geese?" If there are dozens of bird nests, it is impossible not to attack each other in groups.

Ake unloaded the things, and tore off a bird's leg from the snow goose held by A Shu, grinning with big white teeth and said: "It's thanks to you who led away all the snow geese." .”

"By the way, Chen Qi, you said earlier that you wanted to catch some wild horses. When I just came back, I just saw a herd of wild horses. Do you want to catch them?"
