The way to improve productivity is nothing more than population and technological knowledge. Hua Xi couldn't think of any way to improve population in a short period of time, so she could only start with science and technology. The best way to improve productivity at present is to teach people to make some practical hunting tools, traps, nets, and
There are three things like javelins that can not only be used to catch prey, but can also be used in a wide range of other ways.
Hua Xi calculated that if things went well like today, it would take almost all the men of the clan to capture three goats each time. The number of prey almost depends on the frequency of hunting and casualties. Secondly, even if the prey is captured, most of them will be killed.
It is dying or dead prey. It takes a lot of energy to drag it back from the forest to the camp. If an emergency occurs midway, how will the thin tribesmen who have consumed a lot of energy cope with it?
The weaving of rattan nets is not too difficult. Hua Xi first taught a few ingenious women step by step based on the shapes of fishing nets he had seen in the countryside. After they had children, he then asked them to teach them to other tribesmen. As for the javelin, it was even easier.
, collect some relatively hard stones, pour the bones into one end of a long stick, or directly sharpen one end of the stick and burn it with fire, so that the sharpened end can be harder. After teaching these times, it will not take long.
After more than an hour, which is considered relatively fast in terms of time, I took stock after sunset. There were two rattan nets of about 1x5 meters and more than thirty javelins. Almost every member of the Qingzhuang tribe had one in their hands.
The improvement in combat effectiveness is of great help. All that needs to be done is to train them how to use these javelins.
At dawn the next day, when the sky was still dark, a total of 25 people including Hua Xi, Shi Zhui, and Zi Ding were already at the gentle river section where they were yesterday. The early bird catches the worm, and he still understood.
Hua Xi knew that this section of the river was where most of the animals in the forest came to drink water. At the very least, it was the only section of the river with gentle terrain within dozens of miles. While most of the animals were still resting, Hua Xi took the water tribe members with them to get some water.
Hua Xi looked up and dug four pits about 3 square meters square and one meter deep with a flat tool in the forest.
Look at the sky: "make do" and then instruct the tribesmen to hide among the trees not far apart. If you look carefully, you will always find some seemingly ordinary but weird tree vines on the ground not far from the pit.
There are obviously more poisonous insects and beasts in the primitive jungle than there are now. Others don't know it. Hua Xi stayed in the bush for half an hour, and his exposed skin was bitten by some insects that he didn't know whether they were mosquitoes or poisonous insects. 7,8
The itching was unbearable. Just when Hua Xi could hardly hold back and was about to rush out, the sound of footsteps could be heard intermittently in the depths of the jungle from far to near.
"It seems like an animal came to drink water. I finally gave these ghosts a free bite." Except for Hua Xi, almost all the clan members had this idea. Several clan members were already ready to make a move, waiting for an opportunity to pounce on one so that they could claim credit from the clan leader.
Now is not the time to hunt. Good opportunities need to be observed accurately before taking action, making sure to hit the target with one strike. After yesterday's hunt, Hua Xi realized that once the hunting operation started, it would be difficult to hide in the original place to catch the prey. Animals
Hua Xi was extremely vigilant, so Hua Xi stopped the young tribesmen who were about the same age as himself and motioned them to continue waiting. Everything depends on his gestures.
After about half an hour, several groups of giant-horned deer, wild boars, bison and goats, numbering between 20 and 50, passed by. After a few minutes, there was movement on the prairie next to the forest. After a few minutes, Hua Xi and others took a closer look.
Guys, countless antelopes and wildebeests are stationed in this crowded section of the river to drink water and rest. With such a rich mobile food, naturally there are a lot of carnivorous beasts accompanying them.
"Cool, this is called the animal world. The ones shown on CCTV are just childish." It was the first time that she came into contact with these bloody jungle survival scenes so close. Hua Xi was as shocked as if she had won 5 million yuan.
However, the same pictures and lenses have different meanings in the eyes of other tribesmen.
"Fuck, it turns out there are so many prey in this section of the river..." Tribe A's mouth watered.
"Oh my god, the clan leader is so great. He can actually find so many prey." Tribe B also drooled.
………………
Just as the elder Ziding and the others were drooling and their eyes were filled with flesh, the voice of the patriarch Hua Xi sounded: "You four will still follow the old method yesterday and select the prey that is closest to us and has the smallest number, and they will be driven into our encirclement. Understand
No?"
Of course, Hua Xi's words inevitably need to be translated by Ziding. Although they cannot be translated word for word, the meaning is still clear to the four clever clansmen yesterday. The four of them nodded desperately to their great clan leader with excited expressions.
, and then silently slipped to a place about 50 meters ahead. The driving process went smoothly. A group of about 20 to 30 goats were frightened and turned around and ran towards the trap set by Hua Xi.
"Papa...wuwu...baa...baa..." The sounds of the sheep falling into the trap and the frightened calls for help continued to reach the ears of the people in the Youshui Tribe. However, to their ears, this was simply celestial music, and they were intoxicated by it but fell into it.
There were only a few traps, most of them avoided or jumped over the traps and continued to escape quickly.
"Ouch..." With a gesture and a loud roar, the warriors of the Water Tribe who received the instructions from the clan leader spread the vine nets in their hands from the trees where the sheep passed. The warriors under the trees worked together to pull the grass ropes in their hands to death.
Yes, several three-finger-thick grass vines and wild vines were tightened with a "bang" sound, hanging on the ground where the sheep were advancing. Under the attack from up and down, the sheep, which were originally frightened and messy, were in the woods with a small space.
The speed has slowed down, and it didn't take much effort for Hua Xi and the others to catch them. While the sheep fell to the ground in panic, some people from the Shui Tribe worked together and rushed forward, setting the traps they had already woven on the fallen sheep.
On the heads of the restless losers on the ground
"Ah wu... ha..." The first thing the tribe warriors did after setting the trap was to lift up the new leader and cheer and roar loudly.
The roars frightened them back obediently, and they honestly went to fend for themselves. It’s no wonder that they had never tried to capture so many prey without any casualties. Their support and admiration for Hua Xi further increased. After cheering, Hua Xi laughed and signaled
The tribesmen put themselves down and counted the results of the hunt. There were actually 12 goats, and they captured such a large number of live prey without any harm. Naturally, they took them back to the camp as soon as possible. Hua Xi didn't want to
What accident happened along the way?
On the way back, there was indeed an accident, but it was the icing on the cake. When Hua Xi and the others returned to the river bank less than a mile away from the tribe, Hua Xi accidentally discovered that several rabbits appeared vaguely under the dense grass by the river.
The animal went over and took a closer look, and it turned out to be a rabbit.
"Haha, I'm pretty lucky! Before I left Shenzhen to work, I knew very well in my hometown about the reproductive capabilities of rabbits. Rabbits have the ability to reproduce after two months of birth and can reproduce 4-6 times a year.
There are about 6-10 rabbits in the nest, otherwise humans would not be called the king of rabbits. This is probably how the bunny girl came to be..." Hua Xi, who was determined to breed rabbits, immediately walked closer to see how many rabbits there were.
At first glance, the number is not large, but it is not small. There are about sixty or seventy rabbits. If they are kept for a year, there will be seven or eight hundred rabbits. No wonder current scientists believe that if no measures are taken to restrict rabbit reproduction within 90 years,
There should be a rabbit standing on every square meter of land on the earth. The last time Australia sent out the army to eliminate rabbits in Australia, it shows the strong reproductive power of rabbits. Rabbit meat is not only rich in protein, but the fur can also be made into useful fur clothing.
Catching hares is relatively difficult, and their agility and speed are not comparable to those of us humans. However, Hua Xi and the others had vine nets and a large number of people. Although a lot of them slipped through the net, they finally captured about thirty hares that were a bit unlucky.
sunset
When Hua Xi and a group of people drove 12 goats, each carrying a different number of hares, they appeared outside the tribal settlement. This scene made the tribesmen in the settlement stunned. Then,
With wild shouts and shouts, the children happily pulled their mothers to open the guardrail gate and happily welcomed the heroes of their tribe.
