Chapter 137 Crocodile
"Wow..."
The trading team of the Mang Tribe has been walking south along the Lobster River for more than ten days. If it weren't for the huge rhino's road, the road would be really hard to walk.
Along the way, they only encountered a small tribe, and lived far away from the river. This small tribe mainly hunted and did not dare to go to the river to catch fish, nor did they master the methods of fishing.
"Captain, why do I feel that the more I go south, the hotter the weather is?" Yun felt a little puzzled. When he was in the tribe, it was already cooler, but the place he is now in is still hot.
Chenbeidao: "It's right that the heat is right, which means we are heading right, and there must be a lot of good things ahead."
The reason why Chen Bei insisted on walking for so many days was that he became hotter and hotter, which made him convinced that there were many things in this world that matched his previous life experience.
If you continue to move forward, will you reach the subtropical or even the tropics of this world?
There are so many good things in the subtropical and tropical areas, and the resources are much richer than the places where the Mang tribes are located, and of course there are more threats.
"Ah!"
A wild sheep was drinking water by the river. Suddenly, a bloody mouth appeared from the water, bit it suddenly at its neck, and dragged it into the water.
The wild sheep struggled wildly, but could not get rid of it at all. And it was spinning wildly by the bloody mouth. Soon, the wild sheep lost its life and became food.
"Crocodile?"
Chen Bei sat on the back of the Rhino King and happened to see this scene from a distance. He was very surprised that he actually saw a creature like a crocodile in the river.
When he was in the Mang tribe, Chen Bei was a little surprised why there were no crocodiles in the river, but he had seen this creature in the animal skin scroll painted by Qingzhu.
Qingzhu explained to him at that time that crocodiles existed around the former Mang tribe, but later because the weather gradually became colder, this creature slowly disappeared like a rhino.
Now, Chenbei saw crocodiles in this place, which proved that they did not disappear, but moved south!
Yun Zaibei behind Chenbei, said, "Chief, is the ferocious water beast called a crocodile just now?"
Chen Bei nodded and said, "Yes, the crocodile is very fierce, but it is full of treasures, especially its skin, which is very tough and is most suitable for making animal leather jackets and leather shoes."
"Its meat is also edible, and there is still a lot of meat."
"It also has a lot of oil, which is also a good thing. I have heard that applying crocodile oil on your body can make your skin that has been bitten by mosquitoes more comfortable."
"I heard that in some tribes, catching a crocodile is a symbol of warriors."
Yun heard the eyes lit up. He was the captain of the hunting team. His favorite thing was to hunt. Although the crocodile looked terrible, it was a very ideal prey for him.
"Chief, I'll take someone to catch one."
Chen Beidao: "But you have no experience in capturing water beasts, so it is not wise to go down the river rashly."
There are more than crocodiles in the river, some of which are more ferocious than crocodiles. Chen Bei doesn't want Yun to take people to take risks.
Yun Zixin said: "Don't worry, leader, I won't go into the water. I'll lead it to the shore and catch it."
This is a feasible method. Chen Bei thought about it and had rich experience in Yun Hunting and should not make too dangerous moves, so he nodded in agreement.
Yun called a few totem warriors to go with him. Chen Bei and other totem warriors hid in the woods by the river and watched them not far away.
They caught a lot of prey on the road and hadn't finished eating yet.
Yun chose a fresh deer leg, tied it with a tough animal skin rope, then hid in the grass by the river, and threw the deer leg into the water.
After a while, the bloody smell of the deer legs really attracted a crocodile.
The crocodile is about three meters long and swims quickly under the water.
"Here you come!"
Yun looked at the figure swimming in the water, and he gently pulled the deer legs to the shore, just leaving the water.
The crocodile had already swam over, and the smell of blood made it very excited. After seeing the deer legs, it bit it almost without thinking about it.
"Click!"
When the cloud was about to bite, it pulled the deer legs a little further, causing the crocodile to bite it empty.
At the same time, Yun and the totem warriors also saw the crocodile's terrifying teeth clearly. If they were bitten, they would be disabled even if they were not killed.
Yun became even more careful and pulled the deer legs up little by little.
Obviously, this crocodile has never seen such a method of trapping. Seeing that the flesh is right in front of him, how can it resist the temptation?
The crocodile climbed up the shore and approached the deer legs again.
Before it could bite, the deer legs were pulled a little further away.
The crocodile was obviously angry. It swung its tail and suddenly became faster. It climbed in front of the deer legs in a few strokes and bit it down.
"Pull it, hold it!"
Yun handed the animal skin rope to the totem warriors and asked them to hold it. He himself picked up the stone spear and rushed towards the crocodile quickly.
Seeing that the deer legs could not be swallowed, the crocodile immediately began to roll up and wanted to tear the rope off. It was very strong, and it was a little difficult for the two totem warriors to pull it.
At this moment, Yun had already rushed over. While the crocodile was still biting the deer legs, he stabbed the crocodile with his spear and stabbed it at the crocodile's neck with his spear.
"puff!"
The sharp spearhead of the finest stone polishing directly penetrated the tough crocodile skin and pierced its neck with the huge force of the cloud.
The crocodile suffered pain and immediately let go of the deer legs and turned his head to bite it towards the clouds. It was very fierce.
However, the cloud was prepared and flexibly avoided its bloody mouth, and the spear in his hand still nailed it tightly, making it unable to escape.
The crocodile struggled for a while, but was stabbed by the totem warrior coming from behind and finally died.
"Finally killed it."
Yun put away his spear and for the sake of insurance, he pierced the crocodile's spine with a stone knife to confirm that it was completely dead. Then he grabbed its tail and dragged the crocodile, which was more than three meters long, to the place where Chenbei were.
When Chen Bei saw the crocodile close up, he sincerely praised Yun and others for saying a few words.
If it weren't for luring it to the shore, this thing was not that easy to kill. Only in the water could it exert its full strength.
"Let's eat grilled crocodile tonight. Remember to peel off the skin first. I want lean meat on my tail."
It was getting late. In the evening, the trading team of the Mang tribe found a flat place on the river beach, then set off a fire, preparing to spend the night here.
The big crocodile was peeled and the meat was cut off and roasted on the fire.
Crocodiles are different from wild animals in the forest. They have a lot of oil on them, so they are very suitable for barbecue. If they have good skills, they can be roasted into golden yellow.
What Chenbei wants is the meat that connects the tribe with the crocodile's tail and body. This is the one with the largest amount of exercise among the muscles of the crocodile and the taste is the best.
Chen Bei sprinkled the spices and salt he carried with him. After baking, he took a bite and sighed: "It tastes really good."
That night, everyone in the trading team tasted the crocodile meat to a greater or lesser extent.
The crocodile skin and bones were not wasted, and they were all taken away.
