Chronicles of Primordial Wars

Langa's over there, a few people are attracting attention.

Shao Xuan felt the gaze in front of him. After staring at himself for about two minutes, he moved away.

“Xuan, run!” Langa shouted over there.

Without Langa shouting, Shao Xuan had long noticed that the other side was shifting his sight, and his legs burst in a flash and his bent knee ejected.

Knock!

It cracked at a pause above a stone column under his feet, while Shao Xuan's body shot out like a bow and arrow.

At the moment Shao Xuan left Shizhu, the afterglow of the corner of his eyes glimpsed a rapidly ejected and recovered long shadow. If Shao Xuan was slower, he might be swept by the long shadow.

Shao Xuan knows what the long shadow is. If he touches it, he will be dragged directly into the water.

Meanwhile, the Langa have thrown their spears at creatures in the water. They didn't dare to project directly, just because Shao Xuan's location was prone to accidental injuries, now Shao Xuan leaves, they don't have to restrain their hands and feet, the muscles on their arms are raised, throwing spears on their hands.

As the stone spear crosses the rain curtain, Shao Xuan can also hear the "clattering” of the spear speeding through the air.

Pfft! Pfft!

Three spears stabbed the creature in the water, the red blood flowed out, if the piranhas were there, they would have followed the taste and begged for it, but now, there is nothing but the struggling motion of the only creature being shot.

Whoops!

Another two spears were projected.

The spear was also tied to a long straw rope, apparently to drag back to shore the prey that had just been shot.

Shao Xuan finally saw the creature as the people on shore retrieved the grass rope.

The creature dragged ashore, a little different from what was just thought, does look like a frog, but more obviously, it has a long tail behind it!

Tadpoles? Tadpoles that haven't grown into frogs and have front and rear limbs?

Just now, Shao Xuan did not expect to see such a situation!

The long-tailed frog that was shot was still struggling, just a little smaller than just now, with the forelimbs and the backsliding, leaving a mark on the beach.

When the long-tailed frog was replenished with a few knives, and no longer struggling, Shao Xuan took a closer look.

Apart from that long tail, its limbs are also fin-shaped, not toe-shaped, with open mouths and some pointed teeth in its mouth, and the rest of it looks exactly like a converted frog.

Besides, the size of this long-tailed frog also makes Shao Xuan talk, not counting the long tail, it is more than 5 meters long! No wonder Langa's so nervous about them.

So big, with teeth and a frog with a long tail, Shao Xuan first met.

“I almost freaked out!” When Shao Xuan was safe and sound, Langa took a long breath and warned Shao Xuan: “This thing came out, the next time should be careful, it is best not to go to the fishgate to see it again in the next few days. ”

Being able to catch fish is a small thing, and personal safety is a big thing.

Langa's heart palpitated. He didn't expect that thing in the water to come out so quickly. When he saw the surface of the water very close to Shao Xuan, he revealed the eyes of those two drums, Langa only felt a basin of cold water pouring over the face.

Those who were guards were caught in the water, and those who were dragged into the river did not return. And even though you can hunt a lot of this stuff every year, it's a trick that happens by accident. Don't be careless in front of the prey.

Watching others slaughter the long-tailed frog, Langa told Shao Xuan some things to pay attention to, and some previous tragedies, also to attract Shao Xuan's attention.

“As for this stuff, it's good to eat, it's still hunting, but in a couple of days it's gonna be hard to do.” Langa said.

On that day, Shao Xuan and Langa hunted and killed three long-tailed frogs, all of which, apart from the different patterns on the skin surface, were peculiar varieties with large long teeth.

The people on the same patrol split up a bit. After the patrol, they brought back the frog meat. It was good to eat. Although Shao Xuan didn't eat as much frog meat in his previous life, it contained more energy than the spiral meat.

The rainy season here is relatively short relative to winter, but it is not a day or two, there will be about thirty days, no one can say the exact time, it is different every year.

Two days later, because of the constant heavy rainfall, the river rose considerably.

Shao Xuan thought that with such a rise, it would not take ten days to cross that stone line, but looking at the others, it did not seem to worry at all.

When Shao Xuan came to patrol the banks of the river, from shallow water areas to deeper places, he could see a lot of exposed slightly triangular heads and round eyes, along the river bank, dense numbness.

No wonder Langa said it was hard to do it, so many long-tailed frogs, before you pulled the hunted frogs ashore, they pulled the grass rope down the river.

Sometimes when you're free, Langa stuffs the mud into an empty shell and throws it over and sees those long-tailed frogs shoot out their tongues for food. Like the frogs Shao Xuan knew, the long-tailed frogs were also catching sports, and many times the spires thrown before they fell into the water had been rolled away by the long tongues that had been fired.

Those long-tailed frogs never disembarked, lying only in shallow waters at best, revealing a triangular head and a pair of drum eyes. It is also rare to scream, unlike Shao Xuan's thought of frogging, but only occasionally can one not loud and brief “quack” sound be heard.

As the river rises, every day when Shao Xuan passes, the patrol places retreat, because those long-tailed frogs exist, and they must keep a safe distance from the river.

Until one day, when Shao Xuan came to the river, he discovered that all the long-tailed frogs lying near the river bank had disappeared, but had risen to the surface of the seventh fishgate and started to retreat.

The rainy season did not pass, Langa told Shao Xuan that this was only the first time the river had fallen during the rainy season, and there would be several more falls after that, and after the first river had fallen, all the long-tailed frogs disappeared, and there was no need to worry that they would reappear.

At the same time, Shao Xuan also noticed that, as the river fell, the direction of the river, which had become more obvious due to the rainy season, changed. Nowadays, the river does not flow in the direction of the superiors of the river, but upstream of the river that Shao Xuan speculates on.

The direction of the river that shifted and the long-tailed frog that disappeared overnight told Shao Xuan that something had happened upstream of the river. According to Langa, there will be several river falls during the rainy season, each time the river falls, the direction of the river changes. Every rainy season, a lot of things happen that they don't know about.

It is also due to many strange phenomena that the tribes feel that this river, which does not see the borders, is even more mysterious, and that they have been reluctant to explore, let alone dare to explore.

When the river fell for the first time, Shao Xuan was inside the seventh fish grill and saw the kind of insect that ate wood.

The seventh fishgate was set by Shao Xuan, who placed several pieces of wood inside the fishgate. I had no idea that the river had fallen and the water had fallen, so I temporarily trapped this wood eater inside.

Woodpeckers are like a heavy piece of mucus, and when they smell the presence of wood, they attach to the wood fast, or they grow straight, and then pull it down.

However, Shao Xuan found that there were many trees in the river where the water was submerged, but those trees were not eaten much. Throw a small piece of wood into the river and wait more than an hour to see it pulled down. If you put it in normal, it doesn't take two minutes, the floating piece of wood disappears.

Obviously, the wood-eating insects are also very active during the rainy season.

So Shao Xuan puts a piece of wood in the water every day as he patrols to see how long it will be dragged down the river. The wood is tied to a fine grass rope, and the other end of the rope is tied to a stone column so that it does not drift away. When he returns, Shao Xuan will record the results of the day in his secret “notebook”.

This rainy season, which lasts only 27 days, a few days shorter than last year, is normal, and according to the veterans, the longest rainy season they have experienced is 40 days, although the shortest rainy season is no less than 25 days.

When it stopped raining and the sky spread with clouds that had forgotten, and the long-overdue sun shined again on the earth, everyone in the tribe was in the same clear mood as it was.

Kids who had been stuck in the house for almost 30 days ran out laughing barefoot. The children in the cave are also preparing things, and the rainy season is over, and they can continue fishing. For now, they don't have to worry that the cries coming from the river will shake their minds.

Why temporarily?

Because those horrible river beasts who stop screaming, they'll show up again in a while, and they'll scream again.

“Xuan, back! ”

Langa et al. have packed their things and are ready to leave.

“I'll be right back, you guys go first!” Shao Xuan responded.

After the rainy season, as long as it doesn't go under, it won't be dangerous, so Langa won't worry either.

When Langa left, Shao Xuan took a wooden boat out of the leather bag. This was the last few days of his patrol. After returning every day, he made a simple sailboat out of wood hoarded in the house and some small stone nails.

Sailing is only a plant's leaf, planks are common wood, and the hull of a small sailboat is only two palms long.

The wind blew from the bank of the river to the great river. Shao Xuan placed the simple sailboat on the river, fingers slightly hard, the hull was pushed away, swayed, and the wind blew away from the shallow beach of the river bank, heading towards a place where the border could not be seen. The green on board is particularly noticeable.

There are plenty of cannibals in the river, these big, low-IQ guys who have disappeared from a rainy season, are starting to get active again, even more so than before the rainy season, throwing a little piece of meat with blood into the river can provoke a long mix-up of them, very energetic. Well, they're not interested in wood, and the wood-eating bugs in the river seem to have disappeared.

After standing by the river for a while, Shao Xuan left with something in his hand. When he went up the mountain, he looked back at the river and could see the small point that gradually drifted away under the sun.
