Chapter 374 Rice Field Eel
Xiao Se stared at the creature that was chopped into two parts and smiled: "This is not a long worm. This is called an eel. It looks like a long worm, but it is actually a fish beast."

The eel that was cut off in the snow was about one meter long and as thick as a baby's arm. At first glance, I thought it was a long worm.

Ye Feng stared at the eel: "How to distinguish between long worms and eels?"

Xiao Se said: "The body of the long worm has scales, while the body of the eel is smooth. The tail of the long worm is round, while the tail of the eel is flat on the side, and it is gradually getting smaller."

"Moreover, if you see an eel, you will feel that it is looking at you. But when you look at an eel, you won't feel it looking at you."

Xiao Se pointed at the eel in the snow and said: "The color of eels is generally this color, yes, it is the same color as mud. This is good for hiding in the mud."

"Besides, most eels are the same color as mud."

"But worms are different. Remember, the more beautiful the worm is, the more poisonous it is. The pointier the head is, the more poisonous the worm is."

Ye Feng suddenly realized: "So that's it, remember it. Do you remember it?"

The tribesmen all said they remembered it: "So this is it?"

"I thought it was a worm. It scared me."

"You're just a coward. I only scared you, but not me."

"I don't know who screamed so loud just now."

The tribesmen were all joking, but Fengshou asked the question: "Can this eel be eaten?"

"It's edible." Xiao Se smiled so hard that his mouth watered. "And it's a very delicious food. It's not poisonous and it's delicious. But when you catch it, be careful of being bitten by it. There are also some poisons in its mouth. Teeth.”

In fact, long worms can also be eaten, but Ye Feng and the others believe in their hearts that ferocious beasts like long worms cannot be eaten.

In fact, most of the long worms here are poisonous and very large. If you catch one, you may die, so they usually don't catch long worms to eat.

In particular, many tribesmen were bitten to death by long insects, and they kept a distance from the long insects.

Besides, there is so much food now, and there is no need to eat long worms. What if the food is poisonous and poisons the tribesmen to death?
Poison does not kill one person, but poisons an entire tribe.

When the tribesmen heard that it was edible, they all became excited: "It can bite people but not kill them. It's okay. Just scratch its head and dig it up."

It was all worth it. I didn’t expect that chasing a saber-toothed tiger would not only encounter lotus ponds, but also catch eels.

The tribesmen moved even faster, holding back their breaths to dig up lotus roots. When they encountered an eel, they picked it up and threw it on the snow without politeness.

The waiting tribesmen slashed the eel into two pieces.

Seeing this, Xiao Se shouted from the side: "Cut its head, don't chop its body, it's such a waste."

"Okay!" The tribesman responded happily, raised his knife and chopped off the head of another eel that was thrown up.

The scene is a bit bloody, but don't have the heart of the Virgin at this time, the truth is to live.

What's more, in this era when there are more beasts than humans, you have to eat all the beasts you can eat.

Otherwise, humanity will not survive.

The sun slowly became level with the ground, and Night Breeze shouted loudly: "The sun is going down. Stop digging and go back to the tribe."

The tribesmen immediately stopped what they were doing, crawled into the snow, and headed towards the tribe holding lotus roots washed clean with snow.

The chopped eels were also carried back in their animal skin pockets. Fengshou dragged the saber-toothed tiger carcass while still saying: "It's a pity that it's not alive. Otherwise, we can keep it."

"Arthur, tell me, are there any cubs in its belly?"

As soon as it said this, Xiao Se subconsciously looked at the saber-toothed tiger's belly. Apart from the bulging belly, he couldn't see anything special about it.

"Yes!" Ye Feng suddenly said, "I'm still alive if I'm afraid." Xiao Se was startled: "Did you see it?"

Ye Feng stared at the saber-toothed tiger's belly and said in a deep voice: "The saber-toothed tiger I killed had the same belly. After I peeled its belly open, there was a little cub inside. But... the little cub was too small and didn't survive. Come down."

Even if it survived, Night Breeze would kill it at that time, because to Night Breeze, the saber-toothed tiger cub at that time was a beast and food.

Xiao Se carried the big black knife and headed towards the saber-toothed tiger: "Peel open its belly and take a look. If there are really little cubs, then we will raise them."

Whether you can raise it to maturity or not, at least give it a try. If you can raise it to be a fear, then why not be a good partner.

Ah Fang, who was following Xiao Se, felt Arthur's kind eyes and immediately stuck out his tongue and circled around Arthur, looking very friendly.

Ye Feng took the big black knife and said, "I'll do it."

He didn't want Arthur to experience such a bloody scene.

He walked up to the saber-toothed tiger and slowly cut open its belly with a big black knife. The bright red blood instantly dyed the snow red.

A small cub slid down from inside, landed on the snow, and moved slightly.

"It's alive." Xiao Se immediately picked up the little cub and wrapped it in the animal skin clothing. "Don't freeze."

I really didn’t expect that after the saber-toothed tiger had been dead for so long, the little cub inside was not suffocated to death. It was a miracle.

He took out two more little cubs, one that moved slightly was held in Changsheng's arms, and the other was held in Fengsheng's arms.

But this one gradually stopped moving, and Fengshou was so frightened that he shouted: "Arthur, it's not moving, please look at it quickly."

Xiao Se examined the little cub and shook his head: "It's dead."

In the past, when she was studying medicine, she heard her teacher say that if a tiger gives birth to two or three animals, one of them will be killed as soon as it is born.

She thought she killed one because the tiger mother chose to kill a weak one.

Now that I think about it, it is because the mother tiger knows that a tiger cub that does not receive nutrients cannot survive.

Rather than stumbling around alive and being eaten by other beasts, it is better to eat your own children to avoid developing feelings.

This is the case in the animal world. Once in the eyes of the animal mother, the baby animal has no chance of survival, or the baby animal has a disease and cannot survive, the animal mother will eat them directly.

The only ones that love their babies as much as humans do are probably monkeys.

When a baby monkey dies, the mother monkey will carry the baby monkey's body with her until she can no longer carry it with her.

Fengshou showed sad eyes: "This is the first time I saw such a small cub. It died without even opening its eyes. It's really a bit pitiful."

People are kind when conditions allow.

If he had not had enough to eat like before, he would have snatched this little beast back to the tribe and eaten it long ago.

Now, the Qinglong tribe has the conditions to eat enough and they can survive. Seeing such little beasts, the kindness in their hearts naturally comes out.

Xiao Se sighed softly: "It's quite pitiful. Just put it in the snow."

Fengshou reluctantly placed the dead cub in the ground and dragged the saber-toothed tiger's body away.

When I looked back after walking far away, I saw a wild beast emerging from nowhere and eating the body of a small cub.

Xiao Se also saw this scene. This is the law of nature. When the little cub dies, it is eaten by other beasts, and then humans eat the beasts.

Such a cycle!
