Chapter 33: The Horned Spear

Zhou Jiping stood quietly, the night wind blew the leaves, making a rustling sound, the moonlight was as bright as water, so beautiful!

It’s really comfortable to enjoy the tranquility. Control your breathing, evenly, thinly, and long...

Gradually, every exhalation is accompanied by thoughts and sent to the Dantian...

The whole world seems to have stopped...

Suddenly, Zhou Jiping, who was in silence, felt: a furry air ball approaching him from behind!

The hair on my back, neck, and even all over my body stood up in horror...

Danger!

Without having time to think about it, Zhou Jiping shook his right shoulder, and the Type 81 gun belt slipped off his shoulder. He quickly clasped the gun body with his right hand and pushed it back hard - oh - the person behind him let out a muffled sound.

There was a rapid gasping sound, but Zhou Jiping also felt the person grabbing the butt of his gun.

Grab the gun? Don’t throw the gun away!

Zhou Jiping pressed his body forward, held onto the gun with his right hand, and kicked his right foot backward.

The visitor reacted quickly. Seeing that the kick was fast and urgent, he hurriedly pressed Zhou Jiping's gun butt with his hand. Bang, Zhou Jiping's leg was knocked open by the gun butt, and at the same time, the other party had to let go of his grip on the gun.

Zhou Jiping took two steps forward, turned around with the gun in hand, loaded the bullet, and turned on the safety, all in one movement.

"Captain?" Looking at the person fighting him behind him, Zhou Jiping froze.

"Pay attention to the gun! Why are you so nervous?" Major Dog shouted in a low voice. Zhou Jiping quickly turned off the safety and unloaded the bullet. "I'll come over and take a look. Not bad. I'm very vigilant."

"Captain, are you okay? That rifle butt just now..." Zhou Jiping asked sarcastically

"It's okay. What can happen to me? You're still far behind these days."

"Well, the weather is nice today, and the moon is really round." Major Dog resisted the urge to grit his teeth and said to Zhou Jiping

"Yes, it's almost August 15th"

"By the way, Xiao Zhou, how are you doing at home? Has your father recovered from his illness? Is the family still short of money?" Major Gou was concerned.

"There is no shortage of money, captain. The doctors at our military hospital are very skilled and the treatment was timely. My father is recovering well. Thank you!"

"Boy, why are you being polite to me? Okay, let's go and stand your guard."

"Captain, move slowly!"

From a distance, the dog captain whispered to himself: "Damn it, I'm full of food. I just want to be beaten if I don't sleep."

Not far away, a wandering whistle huddled in the shadow of a tree, resisting the urge to laugh.

Today is the first time I practice Qigong in Africa after going abroad. The effect is not obvious. Not only can I not fall into silence, but I also feel an inexplicable irritability from time to time. Maybe I am not accustomed to the soil and water of Africa? Someone is here, Zhou Jiping is standing still.

Feeling that the time was almost up, Zhou Jiping slowly exhaled and finished the exercise.

Turning around, he saw Yilin standing under the tree in the distance. When he saw Zhou Jiping turning around, he hurriedly came to greet him.

"It's time to eat. From today on, it's only twice a day according to tribal rules." Yilin whispered, observing Zhou Jiping's expression.

"It doesn't matter." Zhou Jiping pretended not to care. Why bother to get something for nothing?

Sitting on the ground in the shade of the trees in the square, eating original ecological food, Zhou Jiping did not feel that his status had been reduced at all. Instead, he felt that he was more like a tourist. This meal was the most he had eaten since Zhou Jiping came to Dameng. His appetite gradually increased.

After adapting to the food here, Zhou Jiping relaxed a little. He needed to take good care of his body as soon as possible.

After the meal, Yilin was called to the wooden shed. Zhou Jiping watched from a distance. Judging from the way the chief and Yilin were talking, he guessed that it must be related to him. Sure enough, Yilin came back after a while and told Zhou Jiping: Didiya brought

People have gone to trade goods, and the tribe is short of manpower. Zhou Jiping is going to guard the tribe's farmland today, and Yilin will accompany him.

"Can I be a hunter? I like hunting very much" Zhou Jiping smelled another opportunity to jump and run

"I'm afraid it won't work. You don't just become a tribal hunter. You must be able to hunt the prey with your own hands. You can't hunt the prey without a gun." Yilin refused directly, but her face, which was not good at lying, had already shown her secrets.

Zhou Jiping knew that the tribe would not give him a chance

Under the leadership of Anka, Zhou Jiping and Yilin walked to the tribal farmland. The person responsible for the safety of the tribal farmland was Zomayo. According to Yilin, Zomayo was also a hunter when he was young. Now because he is older, he is responsible for guarding the farmland.

The tribe's cultivated land is very large. It is located between several forest lands and the Hetao River. Zhou Jiping estimated that it is several hundred acres. However, there are not many crops on the cultivated land. Weeds and crops grow together. It is obvious that no weeding operations have been carried out.

Looking at the empty land in front of him, Zhou Jiping really didn't understand what there was to guard. Moreover, looking at the tree house in the distance, it was obvious that someone was guarding it at night. If it weren't for the low chance of successful escape at this season, Zhou Jiping would be very happy.

Live in a tree house

Continuing to listen to Zomayo's explanation, Zhou Jiping understood that the thieves to guard the cultivated land were not people, but animals on the grassland, usually hyraxes, baboons and wild boars. Hyraxes were easy to deal with, but baboons and wild boars were easy to deal with.

Much more trouble

Baboons are very smart. They will sneak up on you when you are most relaxed, and they will silently dig up what they need before leaving. If they haven't dug enough and there are not many people coming to chase them, they will stay in the ground.

Not leaving

In comparison, wild boars are the most difficult and vicious robbers to deal with. They often come in groups and dig and eat fiercely. They can hollow out a large area of ​​land in a short time. When people come to catch them, they will

They will choose to confront people, and they will only leave when they are really hurt. Otherwise, they will only leave after they are full.

According to the chief's wishes, Zhou Jiping would come here to work during the day. At the same time, Anka and Zubei would also come to "help". Obviously the chief was still very worried about his son-in-law.

After confirming Zhou Jiping's job, the next step was to get the weapons. Elder Mumabei was in charge of the tribal weapons. There was no choice but to do so. Zhou Jiping and Yilin had to walk back and follow Zomayo as he talked and walked towards the tribal camp. Maybe because it was

Walking back? Anka and Zube thought there would be no accidents, so they did not follow the three of them.

When he got the weapon, Zhou Jiping, who was full of expectations, was disappointed. What he got was a spear with an antelope horn as the tip. Although the two-foot-long antelope horn was considered sharp, it was absolutely incomparable to steel.

At first, Zhou Jiping thought it was Elder Mu Mabei who was making things difficult for him. Later, after asking Yi Lin, he found out that tribal warriors, especially those who guard farmland and herds, all use this kind of horn spear, and only those who can hunt prey for the tribe

The hunters use regular iron spears
