Starting from the top of the mountain, until leaving the tribe, Caesar received a lot of attention.

When walking down the path of glory, the people on both sides of the road paid almost all their attention to it.

Why does that wolf also go out with the hunting team?

Are they crazy? !

Such new things are enough for people who stay in the tribe to talk for a long time.

For the first time hunting with the team, what Lang Ga said to Shao Xuan was: don’t do anything, just keep up. And now, the first test Caesar faces is to “keep up.”

The tribesmen went out hunting, relying on the early training and the seniors’ teaching, while Caesar, after following into the mountains, showed more of the instinct of beasts.

Relying on this instinct, Caesar did not fear or flinch when facing the unfamiliar surroundings, but became more excited. Even if I was locked up in the tribe for two years, I grew up in the tribe. After I came out, I entered this mountain and forest. The wildness still aroused. It ran like a wind of freedom. If it weren’t allowed by the hunting team, it would have waited for it to come. A throat.

At first, Caesar was also curious about the surroundings and sniffed everywhere, but after Shao Xuan warned a few times, he restrained a lot. Now, under the influence of instinct, it followed the hunting team closely and did not hold back.

Sometimes people from the hunting team walked directly through the tree, and Caesar could not climb the tree and was just below. Slightly slow down in the bright place, speed up and start to run in the dark. This is a nature hidden in the blood of Caesar, which has not been shown in the tribe, but it is very obvious in the mountains and forests.

Seeing that Caesar has been following, and nothing unusual has been caused, the hunting squad is also relieved. On the way, Caesar also helped the hunting team lead away a large beast, and easily returned to the team.

Over the mountain, came to the first stronghold, rested for one night, in the morning, went down the mountain to hunt.

When going down the mountain, Lang Ga said to Shao Xuan: “A Xuan, stare at Caesar. There are traps in this area. Be careful not to let it be…”

Before he finished speaking, Lang Ga saw that Caesar had walked to the place where there was a trap. He sniffed from the left and right, and seemed to be walking around, but he didn’t have any foot in the trap.

The hunting team slowed down and looked over there.

In this area, there are very few large beasts and fierce beasts. The traps here are actually mainly for prevention. If other large beasts or fierce beasts catch up with the mountain, they can use these traps to block it.

However, at this moment, Caesar was walking inside, but there was no sound of traps.

coincide?

That’s a coincidence. There are more than just a few traps in the place where Caesar walked. However, up to now, no one has been driven.

Everyone turned their heads to look at Lang Ga, Lang Ga blushed, and his eyebrows moved again and again. Obviously, the situation in front of him was beyond his expectation.

“I taught it to recognize some traps, and I usually practice a lot in this area.” Shao Xuan said calmly. He had long expected that the traps over there would not pose a threat to Caesar. When in the tribe, such traps were a necessary training task every day.

“It… will avoid the trap?” Lang Ga swallowed, hard to accept.

If even such a beast knows how to avoid traps, then who will set the trap for? Is it nice to put it there?

“When I come back this afternoon, I will change the one over there.” Lang Ga said heavily. He really didn’t put much effort into the traps over there. After all, the chance of using them over there is not great. It is rare to use it once a year. enter.

Seeing Lang Ga like this, Mai thought it was funny, “Okay, the beasts also know how to learn, Lang Ga, you have to be more attentive.”

After going down the mountain, Caesar didn’t run far, but followed Shao Xuan closely, watching his surroundings vigilantly.

The place under the mountain lost three thorns and black winds last year, but other fierce beasts will soon enter this area, so it still cannot be taken lightly.

“Mai! There is a hole!” Ang whispered, who was in charge of investigating the front.

When the others heard Ang’s words, their hearts were full of joy.

“Where is it?!” After confirming that there were no dangerous beasts nearby, everyone immediately circled towards Ang.

Shao Xuan took Caesar and also leaned forward, only to see that Ang opened a bunch of knee-length grass, and a small hole was exposed.

“They’re out!” Ang said happily.

The “them” in Ang’s mouth are a kind of green rodents. The hunting team call them “grass rats” because they look like a bunch of green grass with thicker hairs, which are very similar to grass. When staying quietly in the grass, it is difficult to be spotted by the hunting team, and they will come out during the day and night.

The reason why everyone on the hunting team is so excited is actually because of this season, a kind of plant that grows on the grass rat-rat wood.

Rat wood is a kind of plant that parasitizes Life in the seedling stage. The seeds are similar to a nut that grass squirrels like to eat. Every winter, grass squirrels collect food from various places in the mountains and forests, and then hoard the food several meters deep underground. In the cave, there is a wealth of food stored in it, and he hides in the cave throughout the winter, eating, drinking, and sleeping.

However, the climate of this basin under the mountain is different from that on the mountain side. It is much warmer in winter than the mountain side when there is no snow in all seasons. Even so, Life’s grass mice in this basin still maintain the habit of hibernating.

When winter is approaching on the other side of the mountain, the grass mice in the basin begin to hoard food and drill holes to spend the winter. During the winter, they sleep most of the time. When they wake up, they go to the “granary” to find food and continue to sleep after eating.

But the rat wood seeds picked up back into the grass rat hole, after being eaten, began to sprout, broke out of the grass rat’s body, and grew into a seedling similar to grass rat hair. All the energy required for the growth of rat wood comes from the grass rat, because there is no sunlight in the underground hole.

After a whole winter, when the winter on the other side of the mountain is over, when the grass squirrel comes out of the hole again, the sapling of the rat wood has almost grown, and at a suitable time, it will detach from the grass rat and begin to lignify. And grow independently. And this time period is within fifty days after the end of winter.

Shao Xuan has seen the rat wood in the mountain forest, a very huge tree, it is hard to imagine that such a giant tree, from the germination to the seedling period, actually parasitizes the grass rat.

The rat wood before lignification is beneficial to the National People’s Congress. Children who eat rat wood seedlings will have stronger physical fitness, and the awakening time will be earlier. Of course, it also has a quantitative effect. The more you eat, the more obvious the effect. Even if the awakening time cannot be shortened, it can also strengthen the physical fitness.

Many people in the hunting team have children who have not yet awakened in their homes. For them, if they can awaken one year earlier, they will have more soldiers in the family, and they will be able to go out hunting a year earlier and have more food. For the awakened soldiers, the ratwood seedlings also have a certain detoxification effect, which is better than their usual medicine packs.

People on the tribal hills may not be rare, but for the people at the bottom of the hill, ratwood seedlings are indeed very attractive.

The more difficult thing is that the grass mouse is not easy to catch. They are too concealed. After leaving the hole, they don’t know where they will jump. There are many entrances to the hole. Keep one of them. It can still enter and exit from another hole unless you Block the other openings. Secondly, it has to be in a hurry. If the rat wood has been separated from the grass rat, it will be useless even if it is found.

Mai carefully looked at the soil at the entrance of the cave and calmly said: “Look at this soil, they should have been out for at least a long time.”

When I heard that there was already a day, everyone’s joy just now cooled down a lot. They have been out of the hole so long, can they still be found?

“Can you find Caesar?” Ang looked at Caesar and asked Xiang Shao Xuan.

“You can try it.” Shao Xuan said.

Hearing this, the excitement of the people who had cooled down a bit rekindled.

“Can it really be found?”

“How to find it, it has never seen a grass mouse.”

“Okay, let Caesar try first.” Mai stopped others from asking. The two children in his family have already awakened and don’t need the help of rat wood seedlings, but they can try their best to find it for its detoxification effect.

At Shao Xuan’s gesture, Caesar sniffed at the entrance of the cave and walked around the cave again. It seemed that he was sure of something. It had never seen a grass mouse. However, there was the smell of a creature around the cave, and that was a grass mouse.

Caesar walked a few steps in one direction, then looked back at Shao Xuan.

“Uncle Mai, maybe over there,” Shao Xuan said.

“Keep up!”

Everyone followed Caesar, not very fast, and sometimes they would warn him when they encountered a beast.

Caesar, who was tracking the state, seemed very excited, and as it speeded up, Shao Xuan knew that they were getting closer and closer to the grass mouse.

Whoosh!

Caesar shot out like an arrow, jumped high, jumped over the row of bushes in front of him, and got into the bushes higher than people.

“Caesar!” Shao Xuan was a little worried. He was afraid that Caesar would be too excited and ignored some of the dangers hidden in the grass.

The grass is so dense that I can’t see what’s hidden inside, and don’t know what’s going on inside. Only after Caesar rushed in, there was a rush of rustling, just a squeak, and after a while, Caesar rushed out of the grass again.

Seeing Caesar, everyone’s tense muscles loosened slightly, but soon, they were attracted by the green hair ball held in Caesar’s mouth.

“It’s a grass mouse!”

“Hurry up! A Xuan, see if there is any rat wood on that grass rat!”

Everyone suddenly became excited.

Caesar held the grass mouse in his mouth, but did not kill it, nor did he bite it.

Shao Xuan pulled the rat from Caesar’s mouth. Without this green hair, the grass rat would be about the size of two fists, but with this green hair, it would swell three times in size.

However, when he carried it in his hand, Shao Xuan could feel the weight loss of this grass mouse, which was the result of the parasitic rat wood.

I didn’t see the bald spots where the rat wood had been detached. After looking for it carefully, Shao Xuan’s gaze was placed on a “hair” that was slightly thicker than the other green hairs, and the stone knife was returned to his waist with his other hand. He twisted the green “hair” and saw the thin brown lignified circle at the root of this green “hair”. Shao Xuan definitely said, “It’s still there!”

Passing the grass rat to the people next to him, let them cut the green hairy rat wood seedling, and he looked around.

When Caesar got in just now, he had a bad feeling, but fortunately, Caesar came out soon. Now, that unpleasant feeling has not only not disappeared, but has become a lot stronger.

I glanced at Caesar, and the wolf who was still holding the grass rat happily just now, the hair on his back stood up.

“Uncle Mai!” Shao Xuan whispered.

Mai, who was watching the team cut the ratwood, saw Shao Xuan doing this, realized that it was wrong, and gestured to the others.
