Chapter 11: Raise a Rabbit

 The hunting team was silent for a while, and then violent cheers rang out. They learned from Yuan and shouted, "Chen Chao, Chen Chao!"

    After all, the scene just now had too much impact on them, and the nature of human beings is admiration. Strong!

    Chen Chao smiled and motioned for them to calm down, don't get too excited, after all, there are too many variables in the mountains.

    He jumped off the moa's back, checked it, and died completely, too much to die. I went to see another moa again, and I don't know when it died.

    After making sure that the two moas were dead, he greeted everyone from the hunting team to come down. After the Yuan first came down, he looked up at the sky and had to go back quickly, otherwise he would stay in the mountains after the sun set. It's dangerous, let alone they carry prey.

    The hunting team found two long trees and tied the moa to them with vines. Groups of four. They rotated when they were tired. The two boys with injuries on their legs were not allowed to lift them. The rest of them walked consciously. Guard on both sides.

    Although everyone was tired after a busy day, the hunting team was filled with joy of harvest. In fact, there was nothing to say, but under the influence of the atmosphere, everyone couldn't help but say a few more words.

    Talking, laughing and laughing along the way, time flies quickly, the hunting team finally returned to the tribe before the moon rose.

    Wu, who had been looking around in front of the tribe for a long time, finally felt relieved. Today's gathering team had already returned, but the hunting team, which had always returned early, didn't come back before the sun set. He couldn't help but worry.

    At first, because of the weather, he didn't notice today's prey. He just kept complaining about Yuan, why is it so late today, and what if there are wolves!

    Until I saw that the eight people on the hunting team were carrying two huge moas, the little old man with the horns was first unbelievable (?_?; then dumbfounded (⊙_⊙), and then hard. Patting Yuan on the back, ~\(≧▽≦)/~ laughed from ear to ear.

    But the leader Yuan made a gesture to tell Wu that he was able to catch so many prey today, thanks to Chen Chao.

    The other people in the hunting team also spoke in native language about how good Chen Chao is today, and his faces were full of pride and pride.

    The women and children in the tribe also rushed out, circling the giant moa, plucking the moa's feathers, and then opened the beak to look inside.

    Today’s dinner consisted of two fish per person and half a roasted rabbit, and a green fruit, sweet and sour, two per person. Due to the upgraded equipment of the collection team, the efficiency has been greatly improved. Usually, each person can only eat To one fruit, each person can eat two today.

    The moa was too late to deal with this kind of bloody prey, so the witch asked the hunting team to put the moa in a sealed small cave and sealed the hole with a boulder to prevent the smell of blood. Floating out.

    ...

    There was no words for a night. Today, the hunting team did not go out hunting for the first time. The harvest these days is very rich, and the carcass of the moa needs to be processed, and after a few days of busy work, everyone is a little tired.

    Part of the moa's corpse was handled by the river. When dealing with the moa, Chen Chao asked them to save their feathers and intestines, and let them deal with the others.

    Some of the people who couldn't be idle just followed the gathering team to gather wild fruits.

    Some others realized how much the weapons Chen Chao's newly created played in this hunt, and they all spontaneously searched for suitable materials around the tribe, planning to also make a few spears or slings for backup.

    Since the women removed the rabbits from under the slate yesterday, they did not recover the traps, so today there is no need to go to the woods to collect rabbits, and there are still 20 live rabbits in the tribe that haven’t finished eating, Chen Chao also let them keep. Come down and ask the collection team to get some grass that the rabbits can eat.

    Whether the rabbits are raised for reproduction or killed in winter, there is enough food anyway, plus Chen Chao has made great contributions as soon as he joined the tribe, and Yuan and Wu also let him go.

    Chen Chao found the long grass that the collection team brought him back yesterday. He was planning to get a straw rope or something. Many traps need ropes and other things to assist.

    Straw rope is also called straw rope, but he hasn't found anything like rice around this tribe, so he wanted to try if he could use other things instead.

    But most of the women brought back were very damp and in a tender green state. Even if they were to be used, they had to wait for them to dry naturally.

    "Straw...straw..." Chen Chao murmured to himself, "pop," he clapped his palms, wondering if the wheat rhizomes will work? Didn't Huang Yan plant the wheat seeds he gave him in the tribe before? Before I came down, the ears were already hanging.

    He glanced around and saw Huang Yan who was silly and silly standing in front of Mai.

    But at a glance, he was a little disappointed. How could he forget that he had only given Huang Yan ten wheat seeds before, but how could this kid not harvest them?

    EMMMM... I forgot, I took it for granted. He was a primitive child and didn't teach him. How could he know to harvest wheat? As for planting, it may be that a small part of wheat fell randomly into the ground when it was mature. After the winter with good luck, let's take root and sprout.

    But now only these ten can't be called a harvest, just let this kid use his hands to find a place to save them.

    Thinking of this, he wanted to do it himself. If he let this kid do it, and he didn’t know if he could do it well, but after thinking about it, his identity would become untenable, so he had to wait until the evening to try. Entering Huang Yan's dream, he gave him the task.

    The straw rope seems to be impossible now. Go and see the rabbit. Chen Chao got up and walked to the rabbit nest. When he walked to the rabbit nest, he suddenly became happy. No effort.

    Wasn't the hay padded under the rabbit nest exactly the hay I needed? I really used it every day, but I didn't think of it.

    When he sleeps in the cave, isn’t it the hay underneath~~~

    Chen Chao searched the database for the editing method of straw ropes, and it was quite simple. First pick up four to six hay, tie a knot at one end, and divide the remaining part into two evenly. Use the palms of both hands to rub it up and down, and it will automatically twist into a rope.

    While rubbing it, add two hay and then connect it, repeating the required length to complete the knot, so that a straw rope is braided.

    In the tribe, as long as Chen Chao moves a little, a group of children will immediately surround him, and this time is no exception.

    Huang Yan was originally looking at his beloved wheat, but suddenly realized that Chen Chao was not knowing what he was doing next to the rabbit's nest, so he called other friends to start the onlooker mode.
