When Shao Xuan was in the free trading area, before taking out the spar, he would polish the stone tools every night in his spare time.
Because the animal skins sold so fast, many of the Yanjiao people were idle in the next few days, so Shao Xuan asked them to find stones, and then select satisfactory stones and polish them into the required stone tools.
What is the geographical shape of the way back, how high is the mountain, how is the vegetation distribution, how many types of animals and plants are in the mountain, etc. Shao Xuan has learned from Duokang and other people, so when he was polishing stone tools, he had already thought about it. Okay, what kind of traps and lasso to lay out. Even if there is no spar, according to what Dokang said in the past, there will be a lot of robbery. In the free trading area of Anba City, many people can talk to you and laugh with you the day before, and they can lie in ambush in the mountains the next day. Killer inside.
When going out to trade, it is necessary to guard against others, so Shao Xuan made these stone tools to prevent too many people chasing and killing them at that time, in case of emergency.
Stone tools are not like gold tools, as long as there are no special needs, the requirements for stone are not too high. Useful stones are everywhere in the mountains and forests. Unlike gold tools, it doesn’t hurt to waste them. For many tribal people, a small dagger can be very precious. Of course, it is impossible to throw gold tools as darts and hidden weapons. Going out, if you can't find it after throwing it, it must be distressed.
Obviously, the person An Yan sent out to hunt down had the same idea. They inquired about the Yanjiao people's previous behavior and deeds, but they never heard that they would use large-scale traps and hidden weapons when they returned, so they didn't care when they chased them. At first, it was because the Yanjiao people didn't follow the original route, and they didn't see a figure. Later, when they saw footprints and other walking traces, they continued to chase excitedly until they heard a slight thin line bouncing. sound.
As if a bird flew up from the tree, and then they were faced with dense wood thorns.
It was too sudden, even if they reacted quickly, they could not completely avoid these sudden wooden thorns.
One person in the team swings the sword in his hand, and the shadow of the sword forms a shield to block the wooden thorns that are shot in the face. One thing, it only felt as if a thin rope was suddenly pulled out from under his feet, and then there was a wooden thorn coming from the side. Not only that, every time he pushed a step away, it would always trigger the noose that was hidden somewhere, and then a thorn. Round after round of attacks.
One person is like this, there are so many people in the team, as long as one or two of them trigger traps, once they become panic, they will trigger other serial nooses, and it is hard to prevent.
The wood thorn is not as hard as the gold stone, but when it shoots quickly, it can still hurt people, and there are other things on the wood thorn. Once the skin on the body surface is broken, the toxins on it will spread with the blood. Come, it won't kill them, but it can bring them a lot of trouble, and it will also affect their pursuit speed.
Bang!
With a light sound, a mass of pale yellow fine powder suddenly burst out in the air, spreading rapidly like a fog.
Those who can get out of the battle circle have already jumped away quickly, no matter what it is, it is better to avoid it. The person who was attacked by the wood thorn thought it might be some kind of poison. He held his breath, and after blocking the wood thorn and jumping out of the attack range, he saw the yellowish smoke dissipate before breathing again.
When everything finally stopped, the leader looked at the person who was rolling on the ground, and secretly said "rubbish". His gaze moved to a tree beside him, where more than a dozen thin wooden thorns were nailed to it. He moved over carefully, making sure that nothing was triggered, before reaching out and quickly picking a leaf, wrapping a thorn, and pulling it off the trunk.
This is a wood thorn broken off from a plant in the mountains. There are some brown-green marks on the end of the wood thorn, indicating that they have not been broken off for a long time.
In the mountains and forests, there are many such plants, but many animals have rough skin and dry flesh. These wood thorns are not a big threat to those beasts with thick fur, but people can't do it. There is no thick thorn. Covered by fur and without armor, it will be affected by the toxins on the wood thorns after being hit. Fortunately, these toxins are not strong and will not cause death.
Tribes love to use these gadgets! The leader scoffed.
It's just, who set up the rain-like attacks that burst out one after another just now
Is it someone else's ambush? Or was it done by the Yanjiao people who left
There was a faint sweet scent around, I don't know if it was the scent of flowers on the tree or something else.
The leader threw away the wooden thorns in his hands, frowned, and glanced around with hazy eyes. Even after several rounds of attacks, they still couldn't find the traces of the trap.
"Keep chasing!" Regardless of the person who fell to the ground and was affected by the poison, the others planned to move on.
"Everyone should be careful later, those tribesmen like to use some gadgets!" The leader said. In their opinion, these are little tricks composed of some wood, flowers and plants.
However, just after taking two steps, I didn't know who stepped on what, only to hear a short "hu" sound of vines bouncing, and the nerves in everyone's brains suddenly tense, clenching the weapons in their hands, the leading subordinate team. One of them pulled a copper shield over him and looked vigilantly in the direction of the sound.
However, instead of waiting for a new round of wooden thorn attacks, they saw a few strange crescent-like wooden objects flying out, not in the direction of them, but in the direction away from them. go out.
The flying wooden objects accurately passed through the gaps between the branches in the forest. They were not blocked by the thick trunks and dense branches, but rushed out of the cover of the leaves and flew away along the arc.
Bang bang bang!
I don't know what those wooden objects that flew out hit, but when they heard the sound, the hearts of those who were chasing jumped, and their nerves were tense again.
After the wooden tool hit something, it flew to another direction, and then, some dense swishes came.
Realizing what it was, the leader shouted, "It's the Scythe! Dodge!"
Different from the buzzing sound made by other wild bees when flying, the flying sound of sawfly is very special, similar to the whizzing sound of arrows passing through. They are two to three times larger than ordinary bees and fly up. The speed is also very fast, because there is a cone-shaped hard armor in front of the head, which can easily pass through the leaves and get stung by them, and the consequences are much worse than wood thorns.
"There's actually a beehive around here!!" The leader said anxiously.
Scythes generally do not attack actively, but once they get angry, they become very aggressive. Moreover, the hives of Scythes are very large. Almost every hive in the forest will occupy an entire tree, and the number of bees is naturally large. Except for those beasts with thick skins who like to steal honey and are gifted with talent, the other beasts in the forest are all keeping away from the hive of the sawtooth.
And these chasers, obviously did not expect that the people of Yanjiao would take the path of the sawtooth. The wooden objects that flew out just now were aimed at the bee's hive!
The hive was attacked, and the piercing wasps were angry.
Just listening to the puffs of the leaves being passed through can tell the mood of the piercing wasp at this time.
As soon as they heard that it was a saw-piercing bee, the rest of the team panicked, and quickly dispersed to distract those saw-piercing bees. If those saw-piercing bees chased the others, they would be able to escape this disaster. .
However, even if they split up again, there will always be sawtooth chasing them.
It's those pale yellow powders with a slightly sweet smell! !
Thinking of the reason, the leader was angry and aggrieved. If he killed one head-on, it would be fine, just annoying these little tricks of the tribesmen, which could kill people!
There were also many of those piercing sawfly who were slapped on the ground with a sword, but the more this happened, the more angry the piercing sawfly was. There was a constant whirring in the forest.
A man touched the noose because he avoided the piercing wasp, and was hung up by his feet. Before he could cut the vines with his sword, the big clip with pointed stone cones on both sides like the mouth of a giant beast gave him to him. It was clamped, and even the sound of mourning could not be made.
In an instant, blood spread.
Similar situations happened everywhere else, or they were tied up, or they fell into potholes, and then they were greeted with the real killer move.
The whizzing sound of the piercing bees, the dense popping sound like rain, and the panicked screams of the pursuers, mixed into a mass in the forest.
At the foot of the mountain, two groups of people were on their way, and they were the people from the Yanjiao and Taihe tribes.
They could hear the movement on the mountain. Not only the members of the Yanjiao team, but the Taihe tribe team also glanced at Shao Xuan from time to time.
They didn't know what Shao Xuan had done. After changing the way, Shao Xuan told them to hurry with all their strength, ignoring the traces left on the ground, and then Shao Xuan took a few people to break it off, and asked the people from Tai He before leaving. some medicine.
Because it was for the safety of the two teams, the people of the Taihe tribe didn't hide anything, and they gave everything Shao Xuan wanted. The kind of powder that attracts the piercing wasp is made by the people of Taihe. The reason why they dared to walk near the leaf bee's nest was because the people in Taihe had a way to avoid the leaf bee.
The team waited for a while at the foot of the mountain, and Shao Xuancai brought people back, but the expressions on the faces of the people who came back were strange, a little dazed, and a little expectant.
Dokang is one of them. He thought that Shao Xuan was taking them to stop those who were chasing them, but he didn't expect that when they got to the mountainside, Shao Xuan told them to stop, and then assigned tasks to break wood thorns, cut wood, find vines, and then Shao Xuan carried his wooden box and continued to walk up the mountain with those things, and began to arrange it.
Shao Xuan said that he could block the steps of those people, Duo Kang didn't believe it, but now that he heard the movement from the mountain, it was really possible to tell what Shao Xuan said.
hula-la-
A flock of birds flew over the team in the sky.
"Those birds..." The people of the Taihe tribe stared at the sky and followed the birds, looking at the mountain behind them that was constantly emitting movement.
Those birds are scavengers, and they can smell blood from far away, and then follow the smell for food.
When hunting in the forest, they would also judge what happened somewhere based on the movements of the carrion birds, and now, the places where the carrion birds flew is where the flaming horns set traps.
"Are those people dead?" Someone in the team asked Shao Xuan.
"It's not that easy." Shao Xuan replied, "However, after a few more visits, there shouldn't be much left."
a few more times...
Yanjiao's people and Taihe's people raised their eyes to look at Shao Xuan at the same time, then looked away, and walked in silence.
