wild trail

Chapter 20 Trap
Fan Xing looked at the sad Wang Lang and asked, "Lang, what's wrong with you."

Wang Lang shook his head with a wry smile, stood up and said, "I'm fine, let's go! Let's go eat together!"

Fanxing doesn't understand that the tribe is getting better and better now, what else is Wang Lang upset about, looking at Wang Lang's back, his heart is full of doubts.

The people of the tribe ate heartily around the fire, and everyone had a happy smile on their faces.

Wang Lang casually took a piece of meat, sat aside and ate absent-mindedly.

Looking at the simple fence, Wang Lang muttered to himself: "The fence of the tribe can only ensure that wild animals cannot come in. If you encounter enemies, this defensive measure will not help at all. We must find ways to strengthen the defense."

Thinking of this, Wang Lang walked out of the wall. A large open space had been cleared outside the wall. A pit was dug every ten centimeters on the edge of the open space. The densely packed earth pits formed a semicircle around the cliff. The trunks that have been cut down are all small trees with a diameter of more than ten centimeters. Even if those towering trees are cut down, they cannot stand up with the number of people in the tribe.

Wang Lang roughly estimated that about fifty or sixty trees have been cut down so far, which is far from enough. He must cut down enough trees before the rainy season comes, and the sooner he completes it, the more he will feel at ease.

Wang Lang walked around the pit, selected four locations, and planned to build several high platforms here as archery towers. Although the four archery towers were a bit sparse, with the cooperation of each other, four trained archers could deal with Enemies without long-range weapons should be able to hold on. With the productivity of this era, a tribe can maintain a size of about 100 people at most, and most of them are small tribes with dozens of people. The tribes are besieging at the same time, and safety can still be guaranteed.

The delicious food at noon made everyone's stomach full, and they all lay on their backs enjoying the afternoon sun. No one cared about the sense of urgency in Wang Lang's heart.

Everyone was lying on the ground lazily, not wanting to move, and Jianya was lying on the ground, holding his belly and humming. This unprecedented taste experience made him more convinced of the existence of God, and he believed that everything was bestowed by God. of.

Wang Lang did not destroy this peaceful atmosphere. In this precarious world, eating a full meal is already the greatest happiness in this world. He felt the joy of people. It was not until this moment that Wang Lang really felt that he had integrated into this world. My world can only be a distant memory to me.

There is still a long way to go to completely free people from hunger, and Wang Lang feels that he has a long way to go.

After resting for more than an hour, Wang Lang asked several women to cook salt according to the method he taught, leaving three men to let them continue to cut trees, and he led the three men out to hunt.As the rainy season is coming, the jungle will become muddy and difficult to walk. People will stay in the tribe for a living by breeding and fishing most of the time. Wang Lang has to hurry up to collect enough food, and it is best to catch more food. Lively prey.

This time Wang Lang didn't intend to adopt the hunting method. The best way to catch live prey was traps. Wang Lang had set up some traps before, but those traps were too simple and could only catch some small animals and birds.

It is of course no problem to use this method to survive alone, but to solve the food source for more than a dozen people, the small traps before are useless, and larger and more complex traps must be made.

Jian Ya and Huo walked in the middle carrying a large net, while Wang Lang and another young man named Wu Yun held spears one after the other to guard the surroundings.

Half an hour later, Wang Lang chose a place that looked good, threw the net on the ground, and asked Jian Ya, who was the best at climbing trees among the four, to wrap the rope around the thick branches using the method Wang Lang told him.

After a tedious arrangement, the trap was set up, Wang Lang fiddled with the trigger made of rope with his spear, and the large net spread on the ground was instantly pulled up by a huge pulling force and hung in mid-air.

Seeing that the trap was working normally, Wang Lang smiled with satisfaction. This trap can catch animals as big as wild horses at least, and more will be deployed in different areas in the future. This brand new hunting method has never appeared in this world. , the prey would not see through it for at least a long period of time. After these traps had no effect, Wang Lang estimated that the tribe had passed the initial stage of development. Even without these prey, the animals he raised should be enough to maintain the survival of the tribe.

Jian Ya and the others stared at the swaying net bag hanging in mid-air, and were stunned. This kind of miraculous thing completely subverted their cognition. It turns out that hunting can still be played like this.

Wang Lang patted the three people who were still in a daze, and asked them to put down the net. They nodded dully, still unable to believe what happened in front of them, Huo let Wu Yun pinch him, and the pain from his arms told him, All this is real, I am not dreaming.

Huo became excited. With this kind of sharp weapon, it doesn't take much effort to hunt. He can just sit there and pick up the prey. Thinking of the beautiful life in the future, Huo couldn't help but salivate.

The three excitedly put down the net and rearranged it. Wang Lang covered the net with fallen leaves and weeds. After simple camouflage, this place is not much different from the surrounding environment. Wang Lang believes that with the IQ of animals, he will never be able to see this place. danger.

Jian Ya's face was a little flushed due to being too excited.He asked tremblingly, "Lang, what shall we do next?"

"It's fine to wait, just come here for a day or two to come and see it. We need more nets and more traps, and the harvest from only one trap is too little." Wang Lang said.

"Yes, this one is too few. After returning home, let the clansmen make as many fingers as there are on one hand. No, it's too few. At least as many fingers as two hands." Jian Ya said incoherently.

Wang Lang smiled and said, "Let's go, let's set up some traps in other places while it's still early."

"Are there any traps? But the net we brought has been used up." Huo asked suspiciously.

"Did I say that there is only one kind of trap?" Wang Lang said pretending to be mysterious.

The three of them looked at each other, and they all saw the light of excitement in each other's eyes. During this time, Wang Lang brought them too many surprises, each of which subverted their cognition. They thought this was the life they dreamed of, but they didn't expect Wang Lang to surprise them again. They felt that the most correct decision they made in their life was to choose Wang Lang as the leader of the tribe.

The three couldn't help looking at Wang Lang, and suddenly saw a mysterious light around Wang Lang. The light was so sacred that they seemed like an insignificant speck of dust in front of him.

Wang Lang looked at the three people in a daze, and felt a little unhappy. Why did the three people do this? Why are they always in a daze? This is not a holiday, wild beasts are everywhere around them, they really don't have any sense of prevention, and they don't know how they survived until now.

Suppressing the unhappiness in his heart, Wang Lang said in a deep voice: "What are you doing in a daze, let's go."
