Survival In the World of Beasts
Chapter 72: Wounded and returned
No matter what the idea, at least for a short time these herbivorous dinosaurs can only be raised like this, but the various thoughts in his mind at least comfort Li Zhixun, who currently feels that it is not worthwhile.
A few lambs in the enclosure were feeding steadily. They were already a lap older and they were very well taken care of by Asha and others. Li Shizhao looked at the lambs and then looked at a few females with big bellies. He couldn't help being curious. Asked, "What do the cubs in the valley eat just after they are born,"
When Asha saw the curiosity on Li Shizhen's face, they all laughed. No matter how the Holy Spirit blessed them, they were still children who hadn't gone through the ceremony and knew nothing.
Asha smiled and said, "When the cub was young, he drank soup, put some meat, and some fir fruit."
Li Zhizhu: ==
He can only drink soup without milk. It sounds so pitiful, but I don't know why Li Shizhen seemed to breathe a sigh of relief deep in his heart. Finally, his lower limit was not refreshed again this time.
But thanks to the cubs of the orcs, if the human babies are estimated to grow up, it would be two. He looked at a few ewes in the fence, and counted a few females with big bellies, and then looked at a few healthy lambs, and felt that he could be relieved that these lambs were healthy and strong. Early weaning should be fine.
Asha thought that Li Shizhen was still surprised about the cubs, so he said carefully: "The cubs are all animal-shaped when they are young, and they are relatively small when they are born. Just feed some soup. When they have teeth, they can feed some minced meat. If you can crawl and run, you can eat meat on your own. At this time, it’s okay to drink soup and meat."
Li Zhizhu:...
Why does it sound like wild animals, should he be worthy of being a little orc? However, this is talking about little males.
"Hey, what about the little female? Do you keep feeding the soup?"
Several females looked at each other a few times and sighed: "Yes, small females are more delicate and not easy to raise, that is, we can have such conditions in the valley, if it is in the small tribes outside, in the snow season Many little females will be thrown into the river."
Li Shizhen was taken aback when he heard: "Throw it into the river? Why?"
Asha smiled bitterly: "In the snow season, there is less food. The weather is cold and the predators are more fierce. The general small tribes have difficulty even adult females to survive and cannot raise small females. Moreover, it is passed down from generation to generation and thrown into the river. Females will be rescued and raised by other big tribes."
Li Shizhao disapproved: "The river in winter is very cold even if it doesn't freeze, and there are predators in the river..."
Asha sighed: "Why don't they know, it's just that the rules are like this. The little females are not raised in the tribe. It's better to ask for the possibility of survival. Moreover, even if the little females are raised, they are more vulnerable than the little males. It is also difficult to escape under the hunt of predators. My original tribe was just a few of the little females who grew up with me. They came to the valley later to live a safe life..."
As if thinking of something, Asha's voice was almost inaudible. Several females around also thought of something, and all lowered their heads.
Li Shizhao was silent. He thought of the leopards. They only had a few people. If they were in such a heavy snow season in the north, it would be really hard to feed a small female. No wonder the male-female ratio is so unbalanced. It seems that this is not an isolated phenomenon.
Compared with the beast-shaped male cubs, the little females, which are more like human babies, can only eat liquid food for a long time. Of course, it is more difficult to grow up, and the self-preservation ability is still much weaker after they grow up. Because winter conditions are better, young females can stay in the valley for a long time before they grow up, but this ratio is much better.
However, there are no particularly young females in the valley now. I am afraid that even in such a warm valley, it is difficult for young females to grow up because of food, sanitary conditions and inherent fragility. Perhaps many of the young females I saw were also rescued when they were young or after they grew up, such as Ahu and Asha.
However, thinking of the situation of the leopards, Li Zhixun felt subtly that bringing back females not only made one-on-one marriages in the valley more popular, but also avoided the problem of close blood relationship, and the children were healthier and smarter, right? The ancestors in the valley also realized this advantage early, so they advocated bringing back females from outside.
"Is it our habit to bring back females from outside?" Li Shizhen couldn't help asking.
The ten or so females who had gone through the ceremony were taken aback for a moment, and they all laughed: "Isn't it, Ah Zhao, weren't you also brought back?"
Li Zhizhu: 囧.
He really forgot that in the eyes of others, he was also the "female" brought back.
Li Shizhao is now too lazy to correct everyone’s views. He returned to the problem of lambs: "These little lambs must be raised stronger. Goat milk is more suitable for the cubs than broth. If the lambs are older, they can be weaned earlier, which saves money. The goat's milk that came down was just...er..." He looked at Asa's belly, a little embarrassed.
Asha reacted quickly to understand what Li Shizhen meant, and his eyes sparkled suddenly: "Really? Goat's milk is better than broth?"
Li Shizhen nodded hesitantly: "Uh, it should be the case. The cubs are more fragile. You see lambs are just born. Goat's milk is more suitable for newly born cubs." Although it is not as good as breast milk, But it is also stronger than broth. It is estimated that broth is the most nutritious fluid food that adults can find. For the stronger males, feeding goat milk is at least better than broth, Li Shizhen sighed.
A female named Assi next to him added: "Yes, I've heard Lan Amu say that his previous tribe used to feed cubs with prey milk. It seems that Ache and Aman drank a little milk when they were young, but It doesn't seem to belong to a sheep."
The females started discussing with excitement. They didn't expect that breeding sheep would have such benefits. The cubs will be born with better food, and of course they will be stronger.
Li Zhizhu is a female who has not undergone rituals. Even though the blessing of the Holy Spirit is so confusing, he is still far less persuasive in infant knowledge than Lan Emine, who successfully gave birth and raised two young females. This was one of the legendary events in the valley that year.
Li Shizhao added: "If it is a newly born female, I am not particularly sure. Drinking corn juice may be better than broth alone." Hyundai has never heard of using goat milk to drink directly to babies. , It is estimated to be no good, the baby's stomach is fragile. But I have never heard of broth. I have heard of rice soup. It is estimated that it is pure starch. The baby can absorb calories, but the nutrition of protein must be lacking.
As for corn juice, he remembered that his little cousin added this as a supplementary food when he was very young, as well as eggs. Wait to see if the hunting team can harvest poultry. It really doesn’t work. Li Shizhao’s gaze is on the few herbivorous dinosaurs nearby. Anyway, they eat so much every day, which is temporarily useless, but the eggs they lay are also eggs. It's not.
For other things, rice cereal or something, Li Shizhao was a little helpless. He had found wheat, but the seeds were still on Miss Brachiosaurus's back. He hadn't seen rice or anything. I don't know if there will be surprises in the other seeds that Ahu brings, but even if there is food suitable for babies, I don't know if it will be too late to plant and bear fruit.
Asha and the female looked at each other, and there was joy in their eyes. Although I don’t know if Ah Zhao’s statement is reliable or not, after all, he seems to be uncertain about it, but the planting side may bring such a surprise. very good already.
Asha nodded: "I'll ask Lan Eminem again when I look back."
Regarding Asha's plan to consult Lan Eminem, Li Shizhen was not at all displeased about being untrusted. Instead, he nodded vigorously in agreement. The knowledge of infants and young children... Li Shizhen said that engineering students really know nothing. He just now That's all he understands. Seeing Aman and Ache have grown so big in a healthy and lively manner, Lan Amu's opinion is obviously more worthy of reference.
After all, the future of an ethnic group still depends on the next generation. Infants and young children need to be carefully looked after. The semi-safari career of the two teams in the valley may cause some infants and young children to be unable to communicate in time, or in this era, everyone feels small The death of males, especially small females, is too normal to attract attention, but Li Shizhao always believes that if this experience can be taught and accumulated, it will be of great benefit to the future of the valley.
Li Shizhen, who felt that he was thinking too much suddenly, laughed, and then bid farewell to a few "quasi-eminems" who were going to visit Lan Eminem later. When I went back, I was free and maybe I could talk to Bai and Lan Emine. For the adult females who are about to become eminems, maybe they should strengthen their communication with the blue eminem and the jade eminem?
After the filling is completed over there, these females can be replaced, and let them go to a team with Lan Emu for the time being. We can communicate more with each other, and they will be able to take care of them. Li Shizhao thought secretly in his heart—
The base fertilizer has just been filled, and snowflakes floated in the sky again. This is already the second snow in the valley. It seems that the snow season is really here.
Li Shizhao transferred several pregnant females to Yu Amu's logistics team. By the way, they temporarily assigned the young females to the breeding area to help. It was snowing these two days and the planting was suspended. They asked them to go to the breeding area to help. It is better to collect more forage and hoard, so as not to get too busy in the breeding area when planting requires manpower.
Li Shizhao went to the north to take a look. Because of the relatively high temperature, the ground was not as thick as the snow on the south, with only a few scattered snowflakes, which quickly melted away, but they did not need to do irrigation work. Just afraid of hurting the seedlings, they decided to stop the snow before transplanting.
Li Zhizhen and Bai both secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the impact was not significant. It is estimated that Xue Ding and the others will be able to continue this work.
Chiapa's affairs are hanging in the hearts of the two of them more and more. It has been so long since they have been out, which is really hard to rest assured. If it drags on, it will be difficult for Li Shizhao's words to be persuasive in the valley, even if he speaks as a sacred stick, I am afraid that the valley will be panicked again.
However, on this day, a sharp whistle sounded suddenly in the valley. This whistle meant that something happened outside! Li Zhizhen and Bai were originally having a meal. When they were surprised, they threw down their chopsticks and immediately went out of the stone house to see what was happening.
Today, Team Leader Yong is patrolling outside the valley. In view of the bad weather, Bai has arranged a patrol team to relax the patrol range before, so he especially arranged a squad of Li to be stationed at the entrance of the valley, and he can take care of anything.
Facts have proved that this arrangement is really wise. It was the squad that was blowing the whistle. A young male hurriedly ran over to report to Bai. The smoke was lit in the south, and the distance was not close!
When such heavy snow is flying, if they are not standing in the valley, it would be difficult to see the smoke signal in the valley, and in the south, it is obviously the signal from them. The situation is obviously very urgent, and the distance must be very far, so it is used. Smoke News!
Bai did not hesitate, but took out the whistle specially made for him by Li Shizhen. The assembly whistle sounded quickly in the valley, three short and one long. All the young males hurriedly put down everything in their hands and took up weapons to gather in front of the hall. Up.
Bai was not long-winded, and before he even had time to explain to Yang Apa who ran from a distance, he only hurriedly said to Li Shizhao: "Take care of the valley!" He turned around and led the team and went out.
Seeing this group of tall figures disappear at the mouth of the valley where snow flies, Li Shizun is a little uneasy, what has happened caused calm Yong to ignite the news of smoke.
Taking a deep breath, Li Shizhen forced himself to divert his attention. He had to calm down before he could comfort everyone when he saw the old and weak running in panic.
"I'm not sure what happened. There was news of smoke coming from the south. It might be that a large group of prey was found. If you are worried, please rest in the hall for a while." The calm expression on Li Zhixun's face made many eminems. With a sigh of relief, those who had work like Yu Amu Lan Amu went back to work first, and everyone who had no work hesitated and chose to stay. The fire in the hall was quite warm, and Li Shizhen was not worried.
Yang Apa looked worried: "What will happen?"
For this wise old man who has gone through the vicissitudes of life, Li Shizhen is not prepared to conceal: "It's not clear yet. But obviously Yong needs manpower to help. One is that he may have encountered a predator, and the other is that he may have found a large group of prey. Li Shizhao took a deep breath and saw that everyone around him entered the hall. They shouldn't hear their conversation, so he lowered his voice, "We have received Chiapa and the others."
Li Shizhao thought about it carefully. The smoke news can only tell everyone that there is an emergency. Come here quickly, but it can't explain what it is. But if it is a predator, it will be okay for them to escape. Besides, if it is really impossible to deal with it. The predators, they are too late to escape, how can they have time to burn the smoke? The last two guesses are most likely.
If it was Chiapa and the others, and Li Shizhen didn't say it, it might not be so good. Either Yong and the others couldn't tell the people to come back to report the letter, or the situation was too urgent to wait for the person to arrive, so they directly used the cigarette message.
Yang Apa frowned his snow-white eyebrows, apparently thinking about this issue too. It may be good news or bad news. In any case, I still have to appease everyone and wait for further news to come.
Li Shizhao and Yang Apa were both guarding outside and didn't intend to go into the hall. If there is any situation, they will get the news as soon as possible. Whether to conceal or announce it, it must be arranged according to the situation at the time.
Li Shizhao's feet were numb until he stood. He wanted to persuade Yang Apa to take a rest in the hall. He was young and fine. Yang Apa was old and just hurt his vitality. After all, it was cold outside.
Yang Apa shook his head but refused. The two were struggling. A young male running flushed and sweating came back. Li Shizhen recognized that this was a member of the Yong team. The distance was so far, even the orcs. The physical strength has been running for so long, and it is like this!
He saw Li Shizhen and Yang Apa, he was greatly relieved, took a few deep breaths, and said with his waist half-chuckled: "Qi, Qi Apa," he gasped again, swallowed, and straightened up, Li The hearts of Shizhu and Yangappa were raised, and then they heard, "They are back."
The expressions of Li Zhizong and Yang Apa did not relax because of the news. If they returned safely and smoothly, why should there be such an urgent smoke signal, and the expressions of this male did not seem to be very relaxed.
He seemed to catch his breath, and said in one breath: "Chiapa and Qingapa and many of them were injured. I met Bai on the road and told him. Bai said they went directly to meet him, and asked me to come back directly to report the letter. , Let the valley prepare, he said that Ah Zhao knows how to arrange it." After that, he glanced at Li Zhixun.
Li Shizhao didn't start the arrangement immediately, but asked a few key questions, how many people were injured, and how serious the injuries were.
After listening to the answer, both he and Yang Apa's hearts sank.
Yang Apa ran back directly to fetch the medicine. Li Shizhao turned around and prepared to meet Bai them. After all, Bai they only carried weapons, and they probably had some emergency medicine powder on them. More things need to be taken out of the valley. Li Shizhao himself has experienced the magic of herbal medicine, but disinfection still needs to be done to stop bleeding.
This news can no longer be concealed, and the people in the valley are afraid that they will have to act. Fortunately, Yu Emu and Lan Emu had left when they had problems, otherwise Li Shizhen was really afraid that they could not be comforted.
Li Shizhao quickly entered the hall and explained the situation directly: "Qiapa and Qingapa were received, but they are not in good condition. Many people are injured and need to be assisted."
The pan exploded in the hall, and Li Zhizhen raised his voice: "It's all quiet!"
Although the panicked old females calmed down, they looked very anxious. Li Shizhao then continued: "Come down, everyone, they have already taken care of it, nothing will happen! Don't think about it, we prepared last time. The stretcher is still there?"
After Li Zhizhu got the affirmative answer, he ordered a few young females on the scene and arranged for them to get the stretcher as soon as possible, and prepare more animal skins, thick and thin. These stretchers themselves are not heavy, they need to carry things to meet them.
Li Zhizhu: "Other people boil some hot water. Forget it, just take the animal skin to the hot spring water and scald it. It is useful to dry it. Don't touch the animal skin with your hands. Wash it with hot spring water. In addition, prepare more salt and cool hot spring water, which will be useful when people bring it back later."
While talking, Yang Apa came back with a huge animal skin, and several females also arrived carrying a stretcher and animal skins. Then, Yu Emu, Lan Emu and others with an anxious look also received the news from nowhere.
Li Shizhao had no choice but to say: "Follow the eminems who can handle the trauma, Shie Emine, the handling of animal skins is up to you, Ying Emine, you are responsible for bringing people to prepare salt and water. In addition, There will be more fires in the hall, and some bedding and animal skins will be prepared. I am afraid they will stay here for a while.
After the words were over, before he could hear their response, Li Shizhao preemptively carried the bag for Yang Apa, let the young male take the lead, and a bunch of people set off in a hurry.
The distance is indeed very far, and the snow is always falling. Except for one male, Li Shizhao and his party are all elderly and females. They walked deep in the snow and followed their messy footprints, breathing out white gas. , A piece of wood on his face.
The world is white, and everyone’s anxious minds are blank. Just like this white and white world, there is only a wheezing gasp left. I just want to be faster and faster, but it seems that it hasn’t changed much from beginning to end. Snow white makes people want to go crazy.
Fortunately, in the end, I saw a lot of small black spots from a distance, and they should be white.
The distance on the snowy ground was far away, and Li Shizhao's group saw Bai and they all started to gallop. When they got closer, Li Shizhao realized that the situation was worse than his own judgment. Li Shizhao couldn't even imagine how Chiapa and his team had sustained such a heavy blow to reach the valley.
Everyone actually bears a human being, and some even turned into a beast-like Apa with a beast-like shape, and the Apas who followed turned out to be supporting each other.
Bai had already turned into a tiger shape. At this time, Qiapa, who was in the shape of a wolf, had dyed Bai's own fur with blood.
Li Shizhen gasped, "Quickly, stop first, put a hemostatic bandage, and then move back!"
Yang Appa did not speak, and went forward to take Chiappa to the stretcher brought by the females. Li Shizhao realized that it was not that the bleeding had not stopped, but that the wound was too deep and could not be stopped for a while. There was one on his right shoulder. The huge wound was missing a piece of flesh, and bones were almost visible, which could not be stopped directly.
Li Shizhao didn't need to ask Yang Apa to put down the package and opened it. Lan Emu's eyes were red. He gritted his teeth and didn't let himself go to trouble. He just helped deliver things and watched Yang Apa move quickly to spill the medicine and bandage it properly.
The human-shaped Qing Apa was on Yong's back. His condition looked slightly better, but his legs seemed to be red and he was inconvenient to move. Yu Amu hurriedly stepped forward to apply the ointment to him.
The eminems have all seen similar scenes. Although this situation made them anxious and sad, they all shed tears to help Yang Apa deal with the injuries that needed to be dealt with most.
Chiapa, who was in serious condition, were all moved to the stretcher and carried by a few males. A few young females and Li Shizhen also helped to carry the stretcher together. At this time, ignore the males and the females. There is not enough manpower. There is only one female. If a person cannot bear a wounded person, he has to carry a stretcher. The rest of the eminems also helped the Apas behind, and the group returned to the valley again.
It was harder to come than to go, carrying and carrying the wounded, and the weight was not light, but everyone was even more anxious. The injury was so serious that it was just hastily dealt with, and it was necessary to return to the valley to deal with it as soon as possible.
Li Shizhao hated that there was no hospital at this time, and there was no professional team of doctors and nurses. He worried that he would rely on Yang Apa alone, and he didn't know if he was too busy. I hope everyone will be fine in the end...
