The Rise of Primitive Tribes Farming

Chapter 201 The Temptation of Salt
The Rhinoceros King ran wildly with Chen Bei and Hong Hua.

Hong Hua sat in front of Chen Bei, she had never been so close to Chen Bei, she could even smell the faint scent of herbs on his body and feel his warmth.

There was the whistling wind in my ears, and the scenery passed by quickly. At this moment, Honghua was a little obsessed with this feeling.

It would be great if it could continue like this.

Unfortunately, she knew that this was impossible, and there were more important things at the moment.

When Honghua saw a few pieces of huge dead wood lying on the ground, she immediately told the Rhino King to stop.

The rhinoceros king stopped in his tracks, gasping for white air from his nostrils, his whole body was burning hot, in order to hurry on with all his strength, he used the power of his blood just now.

Chen Bei and Hong Hua jumped to the ground, and Hong Hua led Chen Bei through the dead tree, which was covered with moss.

When he walked behind the dead tree, Chen Bei saw a small piece of strange mushroom.

These mushrooms are very large, as big as a sea bowl, and they grow very strangely.

Their umbrella handles are white, and the canopy is red. The canopy does not grow downwards, but closes upwards, looking like big red horns.

Safflower carefully approached these mushrooms, and said: "This is called a bone mushroom. Look carefully, they actually grow on bones."

Chen Bei followed Hong Hua's finger to look, and he found that these big mushrooms were growing on a pile of animal bones, but the animal bones were covered with moss, so you couldn't find them unless you looked carefully.

The red flower continued: "When people or animals approach them, they will spray a kind of powder. This powder will make people lose their strength and fall on the spot, unable to move."

"After poisoning the prey, the white bone mushroom will emit a peculiar fragrance, attracting a kind of beast nearby, we call it the mushroom guard beast."

"This kind of beast is not big, but it is very ferocious. It will eat the prey poisoned by the bone mushroom, and then leave the bones for new bone mushrooms to grow on it."

"So miraculous?"

Chen Bei listened with gusto. He had heard many stories about the interdependence of animals and plants before, but he did not expect to see one of them with his own eyes.

And it's such a weird one.

Honghua tied her stone knife to a long branch with a rope, and then said to Chenbei: "However, the white bone mushroom will only spray poison powder when the living thing is close, and the dead thing is close, it will not Dusting, so we still have a way of picking it."

"In the past, I used this powder to deal with many ferocious prey."

As Honghua said, she approached the bone mushroom with a branch tied with a stone knife. After getting close to the handle of the umbrella, she chopped it lightly, and the umbrella cover of the bone mushroom fell to the ground.

She chopped three of them in a row, and then used a hook made of a branch to hook the chopped bone mushrooms over. As for the rest of the bone mushrooms, they did not move.

Hong Hua explained to Chen Bei: "This thing is very magical and very rare. I will keep a few every time, so as not to make it extinct."

Chen Bei nodded. The tribal people are in awe of everything in the forest, and they will not easily drive a species to extinction.

For example, hunting, they will let go of pregnant prey and cubs, which is a customary rule.

Otherwise, there will not be so many prey to catch in the future.

After Honghua hooked the canopy of the bone mushroom, she carefully wrapped it with a piece of deerskin to prevent it from getting on her hands.

Showing the red flowers to Chen Bei, he said, "Look, leader, after they are cut off, they won't be sprayed with poisonous powder. As long as they don't come into contact with the poisonous powder, they are safe."

Chen Bei observed carefully, and found that the horn-shaped canopy of these white-bone mushrooms was bulging behind, which looked like an air bag, with a thin film in the middle, and there was indeed some powder inside the film.

Chen Bei guessed that the reason why this white-bone mushroom could spray poisonous powder was due to the air bag. When the prey approached, the air bag contracted, then burst suddenly, and the compressed air exploded, spraying out the poisonous powder.

"Fantastic plants."

Chen Bei couldn't help but sigh, the plants in this world are so amazing, he has seen many with his own eyes, and now he saw another one.

Hong Hua said confidently: "It only takes a little bit of this powder to poison a bear. Here are the powders of three white bone mushrooms. Even if the armored beast is huge, it will definitely poison it."

Chen Bei said: "I hope so, then let's go back quickly, and don't let that armored beast run away."

Chen Bei turned over and sat on the Rhino King's back, and then pulled the red flower up.

"go back."

Chen Bei yelled, and the Rhino King snorted, and ran towards the salt flat with his thick long legs. The speed was so fast that the small animals along the way ran away.

When they returned to the salt flats, the armored beast was still rummaging around in the salt flats, looking for high-purity salt.

Yun Jian Chenbei and Honghua came back, and said angrily: "This armored beast is too arrogant, it just walks around in front of us, it doesn't take us seriously at all, if it can't be beaten, I would I want to go up and give it a knife."

Chen Bei said: "It's okay, let it be arrogant for a while, the poison powder will come back."

Chen Bei waved his hand, called everyone together, and said to them: "Take out all the salt you brought."

Chen Bei unfolded a piece of animal skin on the ground.

The totem warriors of the hunting team took out the salt they carried with them, most of which were packed in small animal skin bags, everyone poured out a little and poured it on the animal skin.

Due to the large number of people, even if each person poured a little, a large pile was quickly poured, about ten catties.

"enough."

Chen Bei didn't intend to waste too much salt on the armored beast, just enough was enough.

"Safflower, it's up to you next."

Hong Hua nodded, she asked everyone to stand a little further away, and then opened the bone mushroom wrapped in deerskin. She wrapped a bone mushroom with a piece of soft animal skin, and then pierced the membrane in the middle with a bone needle.

After the film was broken, Honghua gently poured the poisonous powder inside into the salt pile.

In this way, the poisonous powder of the three white bone mushrooms was poured into the salt pile, and then Honghua used a wooden stick to gently mix the salt and poisonous powder evenly.

From the beginning to the end, she was careful not to get the poisonous powder on her hands, nor to let the poisonous powder rise up.

Even so, she still washed her hands carefully with the water she carried with her, and then nodded to Chenbei.

Chen Bei carefully lifted the four corners of the animal hide, and then entered into the salt flat.

As expected, the armor-piercing beast was confident, knowing that Chen Bei could not hurt it, so it just gave Chen Bei a cold look, and continued to search for salt.

Chen Bei tried his best to avoid the armored beast's sight, walked around behind it, found a stone slab, and poured salt mixed with poisonous powder on it. As for the animal skin, because it was stained with poisonous powder, Chen Bei carefully folded it up, Wash it up after you leave here.

Chen Bei's speed was very fast, and before the armored beast noticed him again, he had already returned to the hunting team.

"Next, we can only wait patiently."

Chen Bei washed his hands like red flowers, and then watched the armored beast from a distance with everyone, to see if it would eat the pile of salt.

On the salt flats, the thorn-armored beast's nose kept moving, and it seemed to be able to tell which saline soil had a higher salt content from the smell.

It walked up and down the salt flats, and soon it noticed the pile of salt on the stone slab.

The armored beast walked over and sniffed it. It smelled a human smell from the salt, and glanced at Chen Bei.

It walked around the pile of salt a few times, and then left again.

"So smart?"

Chen Bei and everyone in the hunting team looked at each other. No one expected that the armored beast could smell the smell of people from the salt, and then thought it was a trap and refused to eat it.

Yun said helplessly, "What should we do now?"

Chen Bei thought for a while and said, "Wait, I don't believe it can really resist temptation."

Animals have a greedy instinct. Sometimes they know that it is a trap, and many animals will take the risk to try it.

Not only animals, but many people are the same. When faced with temptation, they cannot resist for too long.

Now that the leader has said so, everyone can only wait patiently, after all, no one has a better way.

The armored beast walked around the salt flat, but because it smelled the high-purity salt just now, it actually found it difficult to swallow the salty soil.

Finally, it returned to the place where the pile of salt was, sniffed it as usual, and turned around twice, but it held back again, turned and walked away.

On the hunting team side, everyone felt it was a pity, and even felt that the armored beast could not be fooled, after all, it had already walked away twice.

However, there was a smile on Chen Bei's face, and he said confidently: "Wait for it, it will soon eat the salt mixed with poisonous powder."

Honghua nodded in agreement, and said, "The leader is right."

Time passed bit by bit, and the armored beast turned around the wide salt flat, but it didn't eat any other salt soil, and its eyes always drifted to the pile of pure salt soil.

Finally, it came to the pile of salt again. This time, it couldn't stand it any longer. After sniffing, it lowered its head and licked all the salt on the slate clean.

The salt of the Mang tribe tasted much better than the salt soil, and the armored beast had a happy look on its face.

After seeing the armored beast eating, everyone in the hunting team was excited. The leader was right, and the armored beast failed to resist the temptation.

Honghua silently counted the time in her heart, and then said: "Fall!"

"boom!"

The huge body of the armored beast shook a few times, and then fell to the ground.

It was terrified and wanted to struggle, but found that it had no strength at all. There was a look of remorse in its eyes, but it was too late.

Chen Bei stood up and said with a big laugh, "After all, it's still a sacrificial offering from our Mang tribe, so tie it up and make it tighter."

"Yes!"

All the totem warriors stepped forward one after another, took out the strongest ropes, first tied the armored beast's claws together to ensure that it could not break free, and could not cut the rope with its sharp claws, and then layer by layer the entire armored beast tied up.

"Make a big frame, bring this armored beast with you, and we will go back to the tribe."

Since he caught the armored beast and was worried about the wild boar forest, Chen Bei didn't plan to explore further, as he had already caught enough sacrifices.

Everyone in the hunting team skillfully built a large frame, then tied the armored beast to it, carried it on the back of several rhinos, and embarked on the return journey.

　Jia Geng, who owed the lord, finally paid back...
