Chapter 53
Turning over and jumping into the cave, Fengyun walked towards a big rock, pushed it towards the entrance of the cave, and found that it was bigger than the entrance of the cave, just enough to block the entrance of the cave.
Fengyun immediately realized that Bao had dug out this big rock in the cave specially for him to block the door.
"I didn't expect Bao's mind to be so delicate that he would even think of such a trivial matter."
Fengyun couldn't help shaking his head, feeling a little emotional in his heart.
The storm in the weekdays seems a bit rough and careless, but I never thought that there is such a delicate side.
With a residence, Fengyun jumped out of the cave and began to survey the surrounding environment.
Not far from the cave, there is a stream of water flowing down from the crevice of the rock. It is very clear. Although the water flow is not large, it is enough.
No suspicious animal footprints and feces were found. There should not be many wild beasts living nearby, and safety can be guaranteed.
Looking up at the sky, the sun had already started to sink, so Fengyun decided to give up hunting bamboo beasts.
I picked some relatively large leaves and spread them on the bottom of the cave, and put some things that were not used temporarily in the cave.
After carrying the bow and putting a dozen arrows in the quiver made of gopher skin, and holding the spear, Feng Yun jumped out of the cave again and walked towards the bamboo forest not far away.
He was going to hunt something for dinner.
After walking about five hundred feet, Feng Yun's eyes suddenly lit up and he stopped in his tracks.
After thinking about it, he picked up two stones from the ground and put them in the animal skin bag.
He continued to walk, but his steps were visibly lighter.
After walking about ten feet away, he stopped, put the spear lightly on the ground, took off the bow, took out the arrow from the quiver, and stuck it on the ground in front of him.
He took the stone out of the bag, weighed it in his hand, and threw it forward with a sudden shake of his hand.
Snapped!
The stone hit a bamboo and made a crisp sound, which was loud and spread far away.
In the next moment, like a frying pan, a large gray shadow suddenly appeared not far from the bamboo hit by the stone, flying around.
hum...
Accompanied by the rapid sound of the bowstring vibrating, one after another arrows traced lightly in the sky, and shot towards the flying gray shadows.
Almost in the blink of an eye, all the arrows on the ground in front of Fengyun were shot by him.
The gray shadow that was shot whirled and fell to the ground.
With the bow on his back and the spear in hand, Fengyun walked over and picked up the prey one by one.
They are a kind of bird with a gray body and a tuft of long green hairs on the top of the head. They are neither big nor small, each weighing five or six catties.
After picking up all the prey, Fengyun showed a satisfied smile.
He is happy not only because his dinner has been settled, but also because his archery has indeed reached a very high level.
All the birds he shot were arrows in the eye, exactly.
Every arrow he shot not only avoided numerous bamboos, but also achieved such a high accuracy, which was really not easy.
You know, he didn't use the Zombie Eye this time, relying on his true ability.
After removing the hair and internal organs, Fengyun adopted the same method as cooking the bamboo-eating beast, putting the bird meat into a bamboo tube and roasting.
But he didn't do all of it, he only made half of it, and he baked the rest for tomorrow's breakfast.
Pushing the boulder to seal the hole, Fengyun lay down on the leaves and soon fell asleep.
As soon as the sun came out the next day, Fengyun pulled away the boulder, jumped out of the cave, drenched in mountain spring water, washed up, heated up the roasted bird, and after eating, he was ready to hunt bamboo beasts.
He strode towards the depths of the bamboo forest, but he stopped after a few steps.
turned and walked back,
But instead of going back to the cave, he climbed to the top of the mountain.
The mountain is not very high, only less than two hundred feet, but it is still much higher than the surrounding bamboo forests and woods.
Condescending, he set up a pergola with his hands, and activated the snake god's eyes to look around.
Fengyun discovered that the area of the bamboo forest was larger than he imagined, and with his current powerful eyesight, he couldn't even see its edge.
Looking at the past, the eyes are full of endless greenery. The wind blows, rising and falling, like a green ocean.
He turned his head to look in the direction where Bao took him and Lei Lai, and this time he saw the border, but what really caught his attention was the forest bordering the bamboo forest on the left.
I don't know what kind of strange species it is, but the leaves are all red and very bright.
At first glance, he thought the trees were burning.
Withdrawing his gaze, he turned around and went down the mountain. On the way, he took a vine along the way.
Back down the mountain, he jumped into the cave and tied the boulder with vines.
After people come out of the cave, they drag the vines, pull the big stone out, and block the entrance of the cave, so as to prevent other creatures from getting in.
After clapping his hands, Fengyun walked into the bamboo forest with very light steps.
As he walked forward, he listened attentively.
With the experience of successfully hunting bamboo-eating beasts yesterday, he found that ears are more useful than eyes in order to find their tracks.
They have similarities and differences to gophers.
The similarity is that they all like to dig holes, and they will dig out vertical/horizontal underground tunnels. The difference is that bamboo-eating beasts rarely come to the ground, and it is impossible to hunt and kill them after they show themselves.
Although they feed on bamboo, they do not use the ground at all.
They will bite off the roots of bamboo, and then drag the bamboo above the ground to eat underground. It is difficult to find their whereabouts.
But difficult doesn't mean impossible.
Fengyun found a way to capture their whereabouts.
They show holes when they drag the bamboo underground, and they make noise when they gnaw on the bamboo.
Relying on these can lock their whereabouts.
It's just that if you want to do this, you need extremely strong observation skills. There are too many bamboos, and it is difficult to find out which one is abnormal.
The sound of bamboo eating beasts gnawing on bamboo is very similar to the sound made by wind blowing bamboo leaves. In addition, the sound will be attenuated a lot when it is transmitted through the soil to the ground. It takes a strong ear to distinguish it.
Digging up the ground with bamboo, Fengyun raised his spear, the bamboo-eating beast on it was already dead, and the hunt was successful, but Fengyun didn't show a hint of joy, on the contrary he frowned.
He really couldn't be happier.
In order to hunt and kill this bamboo-eating beast, he actually spent almost a morning.
According to this efficiency, he can hunt only two in one day, and only fourteen in seven days.
The task that Bao gave him was to hunt and kill 200 bamboo-eating beasts within seven days, and the number of bamboo-eating beasts killed in one day would reach nearly thirty, which was a huge difference.
This undoubtedly caused a great blow to Fengyun.
He originally thought that he had found a way to find the whereabouts of the bamboo-eating beast, and it shouldn't be too difficult to complete the task.
But the harsh reality told him that he had no chance of completing the task at all.
"Could it be that Bao is deliberately embarrassing himself, deliberately setting the goal so high that it is impossible for him to complete the task? No, not right."
Fengyun shook his head and denied this possibility.
Although the cruel assessment is very strict, but it will not give a little chance.
There may be some who pass the assessment, but they must work hard enough and find the most effective method.
"Method? Yes, the key to solving the problem should be to find the right method."
Fengyun's spirit was immediately lifted, and he realized that he had found a direction.
If he could find a more efficient way to find the bamboo-eating beast, he would still be able to complete the task on time.
"But what method?"
The energy that had just come up was vented again, and Fengyun really couldn't think of any better way.
The spirit is sluggish, and the body can't lift up. Fengyun leans his body on the bamboo, and presses the back of his head on the bamboo, using his brain to find a way.
After thinking about it for an hour, there was still no gain.
He decided to do some research first to see if he could find any useful information that would inspire him.
He reached out and grabbed a bamboo, and was about to stand upright.
His body hadn't stood up straight yet, but his expression suddenly changed, and he immediately put his ears on the bamboo he was leaning on just now, and listened carefully.
After a while, a smile slowly appeared on his face, and his eyes became brighter and brighter.
"It turns out that the key to solving the problem is here."
Fengyun straightened up abruptly, grabbed the spear beside him, and threw it out.
The spear pierced through several bamboos and penetrated deeply into the ground.
Fengyun ran over and dug around the spear.
Soon, the entire spear was revealed, with nothing on it.
A trace of gloom appeared on Fengyun's face, but he still did not give up and expanded the excavation area.
When the area of the pit expanded to the size of two houses, a new discovery was finally made.
They dug an underground tunnel, which was dug by the bamboo-eating beast, but the distance between it and the spear was more than two feet.
"I see!"
The haze on Fengyun's face was swept away, and he showed a bright smile.
His judgment was correct, but there was a relatively large deviation in the thrown spear, and it failed to hit the target.
Retrieving the spear, Fengyun chopped off a piece of bamboo that was as thick as the rim of a teacup, and cut off a section slightly longer than his body.
He first opened up all the joints inside the bamboo to form a bamboo tube, and finally sharpened one end.
After walking a certain distance, I inserted the pointed end of the bamboo tube into the ground, then put my ear on the other end exposed to the ground, and listened carefully.
After listening for a while, he would stand up, grab the spear and throw it.
There were exceptions, three or four times out of ten, instead of throwing the spear, he pulled out the bamboo tube, inserted it in another place, and continued to listen.
It's just that his efforts were basically in vain. He threw the spear again and again, but it was all useless work, and there was no gain at all.
However, this situation finally changed after he threw the spear for the twenty-first time.
After Fengyun dug up the soil around the spear, a bamboo-eating beast was pierced through the head by the spear and died unexpectedly.
"call!"
Fengyun let out a long breath of foul air, and his whole body relaxed.
Not only did he find a way to quickly locate the bamboo-eating beasts, but he also possessed the ability to hunt them down. The violent assessment was no longer difficult for him.
