Chapter 15 The Indigenous People Who Are Not Ashamed
Li Sheng couldn't help holding his breath, wanting to see how the cat preyed, or how the squirrel escaped from danger.

The cat lay on the ground and slowly climbed up to the root of the tree where it was hiding.

The squirrel seemed to sense danger and stood upright to look around.But Maomi had already leapt into the air.

The squirrels were not slow to respond either.It always likes to stay not too far from the tree, so that it is convenient to return to the tree to avoid danger.It's the same strategy this time.Seeing it whistling, it returned to the trunk and quickly climbed up.

The cat jumped up and jumped on the tree trunk and climbed up. However, although the cat can climb trees, its speed is not as fast as that of the squirrel.The cat seemed a little reckless, and quickly climbed up to a height of more than ten meters with the momentum, but the squirrel had already jumped to another tree at a height of more than 30 meters.

But the cat accidentally fell from the tree trunk.

However, for cats, a height of more than ten meters is not necessarily a dangerous height for them.As long as they are agile enough, their feet can absorb a lot of impact.It's just that the cat doesn't seem to be at that level yet.After a terrified cry in the air, it scratched its limbs upwards a few times, and its funny movements gave people the impression that it was Tom being played by Jamie in a cartoon.

The roots of this tree are one or two meters above the ground, and the ground is full of roots.The cat was about to turn sideways and bump into these tree roots.Falling from a height of more than ten meters probably made it difficult for any animal.There may even be internal injuries.

Li Sheng kindly took two steps forward to catch it.I feel that the weight of this cat is very light, at least not fat.

But the cat didn't know good people, so it grabbed Li Sheng's hand with a "meow".He was caught off guard, but fortunately he was not injured because of the gloves on his hands.

The cat took the opportunity to escape to a place five or six meters away from him before standing still, turned around to warn him, and ran away.

Li Sheng took a look at the scratches on the leather gloves, and could only smile wryly.

The jungle has always been the jungle, and sometimes, some animals even hunt their own kind.Like chimpanzees in African forests.Even if they belong to the same ethnic group, when there is danger, at most they will provide a solidarity, and rescues that really lend a helping hand will hardly happen.Especially a lone ranger like the cat just now is more vigilant towards other animals, even if they are of the same kind, let alone a big guy who is rarely seen.

Well, he can understand the cat's rudeness.forgive it.

After experiencing this episode, Li Sheng continued to head northwest after eating.After walking for another hour, he found that he had reached the hilly area.The terrain has become less flat, and some gullies have been found along the way, some of which are still flowing with streams one or two meters wide, while others are only trickles.

He didn't go up the mountain, but continued along the foot of the mountain.But this road is not so easy to go.I often encounter some streams or pools a few meters wide, and have to detour.

"Squeak~~cheep~" A loud and shrill cry came from afar.It seems that there is still a long way to go.It sounded like a monkey's cry.

He sensed in the direction of the sound, and someone actually broke into his territory?He clearly sensed that there were three animals that should be humans, and they seemed to be hunting with weapons like bows and arrows.Originally, he thought it was time to go back.But suddenly found someone, no matter who it was, he felt that he should go and observe.

He sensed that the distance between the three people was still more than ten kilometers away.If it was in the past, if it was coming back, it would be dark after leaving the forest.But after thinking about it for a while, he felt that it didn't matter even if it was dark.If I can walk faster, I should be able to get out of the forest before dark.

Having made a decision, he speeded up, taking out the running speed he had trained in the jungle before.The group of monkeys stopped calling soon, but he still sensed those people. They should have hunted and killed a monkey.They were heading northeast, as if to enter hilly country.He ran all the way there, hoping to keep up with those people.

The other party didn't walk too fast.Li Sheng finally hung behind the opponent after 10 minutes.Although the terrain here is uneven, it is mostly low mounds.On the ground of these terrains, some bushes grew using the sunlight leaked from the gaps in the tree canopies.

Li Sheng discovered that there was a small river three or four meters wide here.But this small river can't be found on the map at all.Because it is completely covered by the canopy.And there is a small path that people walk out by the river.Judging from the three aborigines walking along the path to the hilly area familiarly, it is likely that they walked out of this road.

That's right, the first three people are obviously indigenous people.They have straight black hair. Although they are men, they all have regular hair. Two of them wear it and one is tied into a ponytail.None of them wore any clothes on their upper bodies, only a T-shaped crotch pocket made of linen or some other fabric on their lower bodies.Seeing that each of them carried a longbow and a few long arrows that were obviously handmade, all of these proved that they were indigenous people.

He has also watched some documentaries, or watched some news.There are still some undiscovered indigenous tribes in Brazil.A few years ago, there were also two news of the discovery of new indigenous tribes.

Some of the natives of the Amazon are said to be cannibals.He didn't know whether these people belonged to an indigenous tribe that had not yet been discovered.I don't even know if they are cannibals.

Of course, there are also reports that the cannibals in the virgin forest do not like to eat people.Cannibalism generally occurs in several situations.That is, after defeating the hostile tribe and capturing the leader of the opponent, the winning tribe will share the leader.Another situation is that when an important person dies, people in the tribe will eat him, hoping to share his wisdom or courage.The last type is people who are considered to have betrayed the tribe, and after being killed, they may also be eaten.

Of course, if there is a shortage of food, ordinary captives may also be eaten.Before he figured out what kind of tribe the other party was, he didn't plan to contact them.

But seeing that the man they helped with the ponytail had a monkey hanging on his back with its tail dragging to the ground, this tribe does eat meat.I just don't know if they eat human flesh or not.

Several aborigines turned around a hill, Li Sheng followed and found a small river more than two meters wide.Aboriginal people walk up the creek in the valley.

He thought for a moment and continued to follow.The aborigines walked along the creek for more than half an hour, and the valley in front of them suddenly opened up, and there was a village inside.Li Sheng sensed it, and found no one following him nearby.Then climbed to the mountain bag to observe.

It has to be said that this valley is very hidden.On a flat land less than 30 meters wide, the tribe's thatched huts are built on the slopes on both sides.They are all blocked by tree crowns, and although there are no trees in the open space, there is a small river flowing in the middle.Even if this gap in the woods less than 15 meters wide was found in the air, no one would have noticed that there was a tribe in this place.

The three returned with their prey, and seemed to be well received.

Li Sheng saw him preparing food.They don't just eat meat, but also some tubers that look like plants.Seeing that they smashed the tubers and fried the juice, the juice didn't seem to be lost. After the slag and something were kneaded, they were divided into balls and flattened, and then they were pasted on some stone slabs for moxibustion.

And the hapless monkey was disemboweled, and the guts were popular among their food-poor crowd.The monkeys are then skinned and the hides are hung to dry.It seems that this is the raw material for the leather skirts worn by the women of this tribe.

He also saw that the tribe had more women than men, at least the adults.They have no clothing above the waist, and a leather skirt below the waist.More men wear it.

On the flat land of the valley, children play outside naked, and there are also some elderly people.He counted briefly, and what he could see, including children, was about 80 to 10 people in this tribe.He observed for about [-] minutes and looked at his waterproof watch. It was already past three o'clock in the afternoon.It's time to go back.

This time I went into the forest, I didn't get any results, but at least I found a primitive tribe in it.

After he quietly left the bushes, he ran all the way.Finally got out of the forest and found the jeep just before [-]pm.He sensed while driving, and found that he could sense the existence of these indigenous people now, but it took more energy.

At this time, he noticed that some of the natives had already started to rest, and a few couples were hiding in the surrounding bushes doing things that shy away from the sun.

Field battle blanket, really enough open.
