Chapter 3 Catch Fish
Under heavy pressure, Wang Yang is very motivated. In addition to exercising every day, he also drew a picture on the wall, with ten circles, each smaller than the last, and the last one is a dot.
Then he would throw stones at the circle, trying to achieve a flying knife that would shock the world and make ghosts and gods weep.
Moreover, he took a large bone and polished it continuously to create a bone spur thirty centimeters long.
He made up his mind to improve his food, at least not to be vegetarian every day.
He took the bone spurs and came to the stream. The stream was crystal clear, and the water reached his knees. Occasionally, a few small fish could swim by. The species of those fish was unknown, and he didn't care, as long as they could eat it.
He put the bone spur into the water, and it immediately twisted. Using his powerful mathematical calculation ability, he quickly filtered several formulas in his mind and quickly guessed the angle.
But he was still not complacent, and kept stabbing at a certain stone in the river to refine his technique.
Within a few days, he practiced unhurriedly to ensure that he could be very precise.
Finally, he had his first fishing trip.
A small black fish swam slowly, not noticing Wang Yang outside the water.
It swam very leisurely, wagging its tail back and forth, looking very proud. It probably didn't do anything good just now. It had a bad smile on its face.
Wang Yang watched it swim in front of him, and when it was less than ten centimeters away from his feet, he narrowed his eyes and stabbed hard.
With a "boom" sound, the bone spurs were like thunder, creating ripples on the water surface, passing through layers of obstacles, and quickly arrived in front of the little black fish.
The reaction speed of the little black fish in the water is extremely fast. When it sees the danger falling on its head, it flicks its big tail, turns over, avoids the bone spurs, and flies away.
Wang Yang frowned. The speed he used and the angle he calculated were fine, but the fish was very flexible in the water and difficult to catch.
However, he was not discouraged and continued to thrust out and withdraw his thorns all day long.
The result was really not good, the effect was not good at all, and I didn’t catch a single fish all day long.
It's no wonder, if it were so easy to catch fish, adults would have caught it long ago.
Besides, adults have to take care of everyone, and there are more than twenty mouths waiting to be eaten. They can't spend their time and energy on fishing.
Besides, there aren't many fish by the stream.
But for Wang Yang, this is his only safe hunting place.
For several days, Wang Yang kept fishing, but he only caught one small fish. The efficiency was so low that he almost gave up.
He discovered the difficulty of fishing. The timing of his lunge was right, and there was no doubt about his accuracy. However, as soon as the bone spur entered the water, the fish would be frightened and quickly dodge away.
It is impossible to determine the trajectory of its escape.
Unless the fish's movement space can be restricted.
Thinking of this, Wang Yang's eyes flashed and he began to build a wall in the stream.
The creek is not wide, maybe only about one meter.
Wang Yang picked up the cobblestones and placed a stone wall every ten centimeters across the meter width, just like a simulated racing track.
In this way, the width of one meter is reduced to seven widths of ten centimeters, and the space for fish to move is only ten centimeters.
No matter which channel the fish enters, it is absolutely impossible to turn back or turn around.
After doing this, Wang Yang stared at a fish again. When the fish entered the channel, he stabbed it hard.
This time, blood dyed the water surface red.
"caught you!"
Wang Yang lifted up the bone spur, and the little black fish was pierced through the body and struggled hard.
However, Wang Yang didn't care about the feeling of the fish, so he threw it to the ground, picked up a stone and beat the fish to death. He ate it happily, feeling the fishy taste in his stomach, and burped with satisfaction.
After a while, he started to squat again, and another fish slowly swam over.
He struck again, his bones like lightning, stabbing down with precision. The fish also discovered the danger and instinctively flicked its tail to escape.
With a "pop" sound, its tail hit the stone wall next to it and bounced back.
The bone spurs pierced its body without giving it another chance to react.
…
On this day, Wang Yang caught five fish, and he realized that this method was very good.
Every day after that, his proficiency increased and he caught more and more fish. At most, he could catch ten fish.
Unfortunately, the creek was still too small, and the fish were few and small. Each of the ten fish could only have a few bites, but at least they could often eat meat. Everyone was very happy and praised Wang Yang.
Everyone's physical condition is getting better due to the increase in meat intake, especially the children younger than Wang Yang. They have obviously gained weight and have chubby faces. They all smile when they see Wang Yang.
The fishing matter was soon taken over by another adult. There were ready-made stone channels to restrict the movement of fish, so catching fish was no longer difficult.
Wang Yang has been proud of this for a long time, and finally lived up to the title of Outstanding Youth of the 21st Century.
After a period of time, in addition to throwing stones every day, Wang Yang also had another training, climbing trees.
In the forest, most large animals will not climb trees. In an emergency, hiding in a tree is a very good way. It can be said to be one of the life-saving means for survival in the jungle.
Such an important means cannot be left behind.
Wang Yang did not dare to go deep into the forest, so he practiced on a big tree at the entrance of the valley.
To be honest, he really couldn't name what kind of tree this tree was. Not to mention how old it was, he just said that during the few years he went to college, he gave back all the things he learned to the teacher.
It takes three people to hug this tree. The tree is very tall. The trunk is bare below four meters. There is almost no place to climb. There are also mostly thick trees in the forest. It is difficult for small trees to survive in fierce competition.
Unlike later generations, the bigger the trees grew, the more tragic they became, and they were all chopped down.
It is very difficult to hold this tree with bare hands, but Wang Yang learned a few tricks from the adults. They had polished sharp stone tools, similar to small pointed awls.
When climbing a tree, pierce the tree with a cone, rely on waist and arm strength, and use the strength of your feet to climb up quickly.
It was very difficult at the beginning. He often lost strength in his arms before climbing up the branches, and his waist strength was also not good.
He trained crazily every day, and after a few months, he had improved his body's coordination to a higher level. Since he could eat meat regularly and his strength grew quickly, he could barely survive such high-intensity consumption.
It would be nice if I could eat more meat.
Of course, his ability to climb trees has improved a little. He first takes a run, kicks on the tree a few times, and then plunges the cones in his hands into the tree.
Keep your feet from the trunk of the tree and climb up while digging.
There is also a trick here. If you want to climb quickly, you must not dig the awl too deep, otherwise it will be a waste of time to pull it out.
But if you don't dig it deeper, you may take it off, and the balance requires a lot of practice.
As for new tools, such as other things, since I didn’t see them at the exit and the adults didn’t understand them, I had to give them up temporarily.
This season of the year is autumn.
In fact, we can’t call autumn, it has almost no sense of existence. Since it is the warm period of the interglacial period, the summer is only 16 or 7 degrees Celsius. Spring is shorter than summer, and autumn is shorter than spring. It only takes about a month to reach autumn.
It's winter.
Winter lasts for a long time, maybe nearly five months. Just imagine what it would be like to live in the ice and snow for five months without heating and air conditioning.
Maybe we don’t experience it in modern times, but here, temperatures of dozens of degrees below zero are commonplace.
To use the simplest metaphor, if you go out for a convenience trip, you can bring back a popsicle.
Go out and stand for a few hours, then congratulations, you have the honor of becoming the first humanoid ice sculpture in history!
Wang Yang definitely has no intention of dedicating himself to art.
In winter, everyone would huddle closely together, with thick animal skins on the ground and several thick layers of animal skins covering their bodies. Even so, they were still shivering from the cold.
Every time, several people would catch a cold, and then a weak person would have a fever and die.
What did you say? Give me a fever-reducing shot? Dude, it’s time to take medicine. You must not give up treatment.
In addition, due to hunting accidents every year, two or three friends would always die, resulting in the tribe's population being unable to grow.
The number of people represents labor force, productivity, and combat effectiveness!
Therefore, if you want not to be threatened by the seven wolves, you must increase your survival guarantee so that you will have the capital to threaten the wolves next time!
