Chapter 45 Strange Voice

After hunting the giant wild boar, Chenbei asked the hunting team to take the giant wild boar back.

"Chief, what about you? Aren't you going back to the tribe with us?" Yun asked in confusion.

"I won't go back for the time being. We have always known too little about this forest, so I plan to take this opportunity to explore this forest well and draw a map so that you can have a reference for hunting in the mountains in the future."

"map?"

It was another new term. Yun had never heard of it, and the expression on his face was a little confused.

Chenbeidao: "It is the entire forest that is reduced and painted on the animal skin, marking the conspicuous and key things. Even if you have never been to that place in the future, you can know what is there based on the map."

"This is a good thing!" Yun's eyes lit up, and he was obviously attracted by Chen Bei's description.

"Chief, why don't I go with you and let them take the prey back. If you go alone, no one will help you."

Chen Bei thought about it and did not encounter any danger along the way, so he said, "Okay, then you can explain to them and let them return."

Yun immediately told the members of the hunting team that they would take the giant wild boar back the same way, not hunting or staying on the way, and go back to the tribe directly.

Under Chen Bei's guidance, the hunting team made two simple sleds, placed the giant wild boar on it, and dragged it back directly.

Chenbei and Yun continued to move forward and explore this forest.

"Crack..."

The two of them stepped on the snow, one deep and one shallow, leaving a string of footprints along the way, but these footprints will soon be covered by snowflakes that continue to fall, and it will disappear without a trace in no time.

There are still many birds and beasts moving in the mountains and forests in winter. When the two of them are moving forward, they will accidentally encounter birds flying away from the trees, or the beasts on the ground will run away immediately after seeing people.

In the evening, the two found a very shallow cave, only two or three meters deep, and there were no wild animals inside.

Chen Bei went into the stone cave and looked at it. He was very satisfied, so he said to Yun: "Let's spend the night here tonight. You go find some dry firewood to make a fire, and I'll go hunting."

"good."

The cloud immediately went nearby to look for dry firewood, dry moss and other things to make fire.

On heavy snow days, the firewood in the mountains is actually drier than usual, because the moisture has been drained and solidified. Even the moss covered by snowflakes is shaking the snow clean after being dug out. It is also very dry and is very suitable for attracting fire.

Chen Bei took his spear and went nearby to find prey. In the mountains and forests, he didn't want to eat jerky barbecue at night.

Or is it more satisfying to eat fresh meat when grilled.

After Chen Bei became a totem warrior, his five senses became more sensitive. As long as he listened quietly, he could hear subtle sounds from afar.

He closed his eyes and listened carefully for a while, and found some movement on the left, so he walked to the left.

After walking about five hundred meters, a wild beast appeared in front of him, lowering his head, digging the snow on the ground with his hooves, and eating the dried grass below.

The wild beast's hair is earthy yellow and looks like a deer, but has no horns and a very short tail. Its ears stand up from time to time to listen to the movements around it.

"It turned out to be a deer, and it happened to be hunting for dinner."

Chen Bei quietly approached the deer, and he did not throw a spear because the spear would pierce the internal organs and affect the taste of the meat.

He tried his best to lower his body, reduce his presence, and make himself almost integrated with the mountains and forests, so as not to disturb the deer.

When he walked around the back of the deer, the deer was still unaware of it and was still lowering his head to eat grass.

"Swoosh!"

After the deer entered his attack range, Chen Bei held the stone knife in his hand and rushed out instantly, reaching an extreme speed.

The deer panicked and wanted to hide, it was too late. The stone knife cut off its neck neatly.

Chen Bei wiped the blood from the stone knife with snow, then put it away, carrying about thirty kilograms of deer in one hand and preparing to walk back.

"Moo!"

Suddenly, Chen Bei vaguely heard a strange beast roar. This beast roar gave him a familiar feeling, but it was not the scream of a bison.

When Chen Bei listened carefully, his screams stopped again, as if it was just his hallucination.

"Did you hear it wrong?"

Chen Bei listened for a while, but the sound did not sound again. Chen Bei shook his head and walked back directly with the deer.

When we returned to the cave, the cloud had already picked up a lot of fire and a pile of fire was raised at the entrance of the cave. There was a lot of moss in the cave to isolate the cold ground and make it easy to sleep at night.

"Carry this deer and roast it for a while."

"Okay, leader."

Chen sat next to the fire to rest, while Yun Ze held a stone knife and skillfully treated the deer. After the treatment, he used a stick to penetrate it.

Yun took out a small bag of salt and some spices from the animal skin bag she carried, and evenly applied it to the deer, so that he would not have to eat the tasteless barbecue.

The method of carrying salt and spices with him was also brought by Chen Bei. Later, the hunting team ate it several times. When hunting, they also learned to carry some salt and spices.

It was dark very quickly in winter. When the clouds were finished, the sky had completely darkened, and there was no moonlight. It was pitch black outside, and the sound of snow crushing branches from time to time came.

Yun put the deer on the fire and roasted it, and said while roasting it, "Chief, I think I should come back when the snow melts. Now there are white everywhere and many places cannot be seen clearly."

Chenbeidao: "The current exploration is mainly for winter hunting. Just look at a rough one, and you don't have to look at it in detail. However, if you want to draw a good map, you should really come back after melting the snow."

The two of them surrounded the fire and spoke while eating barbecue. After cooking, they cut it off with a stone knife and ate it.

Soon, all a deer fell into the stomachs of the two of them, and they only ate half full. In order to fill their stomachs, they roasted some jerky to eat.

The totem warrior consumes a lot and eats a lot.

The two discussed again and took turns to watch the night, Yunguan was guarding the first half of the night, and Chenbei guarded the second half of the night.

Chen Bei lay on the ground paved with moss. The soft moss and the fatigue of the whole day made him fall asleep quickly.

After falling asleep, Chen Bei had a dream. He dreamed of the Totem God. The Totem God pointed him in a direction. There seemed to be a group of huge beasts in that direction, but in the dream he couldn't see clearly what these beasts looked like.

"Moo!"

At midnight, a faint cry woke Chenbei up. He suddenly flicked and sat up, looking outside in surprise.

"Chief, you woke up so quickly, you can actually sleep more."

Yun thought Chenbei was having a nightmare.

"Yun, have you heard any strange sounds?" Chen Bei asked.

Yun shook his head and said, "I didn't hear any other strange sounds. It was snowing outside and the wind was very strong. Maybe the leader heard the sound of the wind?"

Chen Bei rubbed his temples. It was really windy outside, maybe he heard it wrong.

"Yun, I can't sleep anymore. You go to bed, I'll watch."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, the leader."

The clouds lie down inside the cave. The soft moss and the warm firelight made him fall asleep soon.

Chen Bei sat by the fire all night, but he didn't hear any strange sounds until dawn. He thought in confusion: Did you really hear it wrong?
