Original War

On Lang Ga's side, several people were attracting attention.

Shao Xuan felt the line of sight in front of him, and then moved away after staring at him for about two minutes.

"Axuan, run!" Lang Ga shouted over there.

There was no need for Lang Ga to shout, Shao Xuan had already noticed that when the other party looked away, his legs burst out in an instant, and his bent knees ejected.

Click!

A section of the stone pillar stepped on under his feet suddenly cracked, and Shao Xuan's body shot out like a bow and arrow.

At the next moment when Shao Xuan left the stone pillar, from the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a long shadow that shot out and recovered quickly. If Shao Xuan was slower, he might be swept by that long shadow.

Shao Xuan knew what that long shadow was. If it touched him, he would be dragged directly into the water.

At the same time, Lang Ga and the others had already thrown their spears towards the creatures in the water. They didn't dare to shoot directly just now because Shao Xuan's position was easily injured. Now that Shao Xuan left, they didn't have to tie their hands and feet. The horns on their arms were raised and they threw the spears in their hands.

The stone spear passed through the rain curtain, and Shao Xuan could hear the "swish" sound of the spear swiftly across the air.

puff! puff! puff!

Three spears pierced the creature in the water, and red blood flowed out. If the piranhas were there, they would have followed the smell to snatch it, but now, except for the struggling movement of the creature that was shot, and Nothing else.

Whizzing!

Two more spears projected past.

There is also a long straw rope tied to the spear. Obviously, this is to drag the prey that was shot back to the shore.

As the people on the shore retracted the straw rope, Shao Xuan finally saw the creature's figure.

There is a little difference from what I just thought. The creature dragged ashore is indeed like a frog, but it is more obvious that it still has a long tail behind it!

tadpole? Tadpoles with forelimbs that have not yet developed into frogs?

Hearing that cry just now, Shao Xuan had no idea that he would see such a situation!

The long-tailed frog that was shot was still struggling, but the struggling was a bit smaller than before. The forelegs and back pedaled, leaving traces on the beach.

After the long-tailed frog was repaired a few times and stopped struggling, Shao Xuan took a closer look.

Except for the long tail, its limbs are also webbed rather than toe-shaped. The mouth is opened, and there are some fangs in the mouth. Other than that, it looks exactly like a fully transformed frog. .

Not only that, the size of this long-tailed frog also made Shao Xuan speechless, not counting its long tail, its body length has exceeded five meters! No wonder Lang Ga and the others are so nervous.

It was the first time Shao Xuan saw a frog that was so big, with teeth and a long tail.

"Almost scared to death just now!" Seeing that Shao Xuan was safe and sound, Lang Ga took a long breath, and then warned Shao Xuan: "This thing has come out. Be careful in the next time. It's best not to go to Yuzha again these days. Looked."

Whether you can catch fish is a trivial matter, but your personal safety is a major matter.

Lang Ga felt a lingering fear. He didn't expect that the thing in the water would come out so quickly. When he saw the two bulging eyes exposed on the water very close to Shao Xuan, Lang Ga only felt a basin of cold water facing him. Splash.

Someone who used to patrol was caught in the water, and those who were pulled into the river never came back. Although everyone took precautions and hunted a lot of these things every year, if one was not careful, they would still be slapped. In front of the prey, do not take it lightly.

Watching other people slaughter the long-tailed frog, Lang Ga told Shao Xuan some things to pay attention to, and also said some previous tragedies, in order to attract Shao Xuan's attention.

"As for this thing, it tastes good, and it can still be hunted, but in two days it will be difficult to start." Lang Ga said.

On the same day, Shao Xuan and Lang Ga hunted down three long-tailed frogs. Apart from the different patterns on the surface of their skin, these three were all peculiar species with large teeth and long tails.

The people who patrolled in the same round divided their points. After the patrol, they took the frog meat back. It was good. Although it was not as tender as the frog meat that Shao Xuan had eaten in his previous life, it contained more energy than snail meat.

Compared with winter, the rainy season here is relatively short, but it is not a one or two day event. There will be about 30 days. No one knows the specific time. It varies from year to year.

Two days later, because of the continuous heavy rain, the river surface was ascending a lot.

Shao Xuan thought, with such an upward trend, it would take less than ten days to cross the stone line, but looking at other people, it seemed that there was no worry at all.

When Shao Xuanlai was patrolling the banks of the river, from shallow water to deeper places, you could see a lot of exposed slightly triangular heads and round eyes, densely along the river bank line.

No wonder Lang Ga said that it is difficult to start, so many long-tailed frogs, before you pull the hunted frogs ashore, the grass rope is pulled down the river by them.

Sometimes when he was idle, Lang Ga would stuff mud into the empty snail shell, and then threw it over to watch the long-tailed frogs shoot out their long tongues to grab food. Like the frogs that Shao Xuan knew, those long-tailed frogs are also things that capture movement. Many times the snails thrown in the past are swept away by the projected long tongue before they fall into the water.

Those long-tailed frogs never go ashore, at most they only lie on their stomachs in shallow waters, revealing a triangular head and a pair of round eyes. It is also rarely called, unlike the sound of frogs that Shao Xuan thought. Only occasionally can I hear a small and short "croak" sound.

As the river rises, every day when Shao Xuan passes by, the patrol site will retreat. Because of the existence of those long-tailed frogs, they must keep a safe distance from the river.

Until one day, when Shao Xuan came to the river, he found that all the long-tailed frogs lying near the river bank had disappeared, but the river, which had already risen to the seventh fish fence, began to retreat.

The rainy season has not passed. Lang Ga told Shao Xuan that this was only the first river drop in the rainy season, and there will be several drops thereafter. After the first river drop, all the long-tailed frogs disappeared, so there is no need to worry about it afterwards. They will appear again.

At the same time, Shao Xuan also noticed that when the river surface fell, the direction of the river, which had been gradually obvious due to the rising water in the rainy season, changed. Nowadays, the river is not flowing in the direction that the overlords in the river swims, but is flowing upstream of the river that Shao Xuan guessed.

The changing direction of the river and the long-tailed frog that disappeared overnight told Shao Xuan that something was happening in the upper reaches of the river. According to Langga, there will be several times when the river surface drops during the rainy season. Every time the river surface drops, the flow direction of the river will change. Every year in the rainy season, many things they don't know are happening.

It is precisely because of many strange phenomena that the people of the tribe feel that this invisible river is more mysterious, and they have been reluctant to explore, let alone explore.

When the river descended for the first time, Shao Xuan saw the wood-eating insects in the seventh fish fence.

The seventh fish grid was built by Shao Xuan. He put a few pieces of wood in the fish grid. He didn't expect that this time when the river surface fell and the water receded, he temporarily trapped the wood-eating insect in it.

Wood-eating insects are like a mass of mucus. When they smell the presence of wood, they will stick to the wood block, or directly grow longer, and then pull the wood block down.

However, Shao Xuan found that there were many trees growing in the flooded area, but those trees had not been eaten much. Throw a small piece of wood into the river and wait for more than an hour to see the piece of wood being pulled down. If this is left in normal times, it will take less than two minutes for the piece of wood floating on the surface of the river to disappear.

Obviously, the activities of those wood-eating insects during the rainy season are also very unusual.Therefore, when Shao Xuan was patrolling every day, he would put a wooden block in the water to see how long it would be pulled down the river. A thin straw rope is tied to the wooden block, and the other end of the rope is tied to the stone pillar so that it will not float away. After returning, Shao Xuan will record the results of the day in his own secret "notebook".

This rainy season has only 27 days, which is a few days shorter than last year. This is normal. According to the veterans, the longest rainy season they have experienced is 40 days, but the shortest rainy season will not be less than two. Fifteen days.

When the rain stopped, the dark clouds that had been lingering in the sky dispersed, and the long-lost sun shone on this land again, everyone in the tribe became as clear as the weather.

The children who had been stuffed in the house for nearly thirty days ran out like a joy, barefoot laughing and running around. The children in the cave also began to prepare things. After the rainy season is over, they can continue to fish. For the time being, they don't have to worry about being dizzy by the sound of the river.

Why is it temporary?

Because those horror beasts who stopped roaring will reappear after a while, and they will scream again.

"A Xuan, I'm going back!"

Lang Ga and others have packed their things and are ready to leave.

"I'll go back right away, let's go first!" Shao Xuan replied.

After the rainy season is over, as long as there is no water, there will be no danger, so Lang Ga is not worried.

When Lang Ga and the others left, Shao Xuan took out a wooden boat from the animal skin bag. This was the last few days of his patrol. After returning every day, he made it out of the wood stored in the house and some small stone nails. A simple sailing boat.

The sail is made of only the leaves of a plant, and the planks are also ordinary wood. The hull of the small sailboat is only two palms long.

The wind blows from the river bank to the big river. Shao Xuan put the simple small sailboat on the river surface. With a little force with his fingers, the hull was pushed away and swayed. The wind blew away from the shallows of the river bank and sailed to a place where the boundary was invisible. The green on the boat is particularly conspicuous.

There are many piranhas in the river. These big-headed and low-IQ guys who disappeared during the rainy season have become active again, even more active than before the rainy season. Throwing a small piece of blood into the river can cause it They have been fighting for a long time and are very energetic. The good thing is that they are not interested in wood, but the wood-eaters in the river who are interested in wood seem to have disappeared.

Standing by the river and watching for a while, Shao Xuancai carried his things and left. When he went up the mountain, he looked back at the river and he could see the small dots drifting away under the sun.
