Chronicles of Primordial Wars

Chapter 7: Weird fish

Views:

The black hemisphere Shao Xuan regarded it as a fish float. Shao Xuan tried wooden blocks and the like, but it didn't work. Just like what the tribe said, the diving area near the shore was okay. In a slightly deeper place, the wooden block sank after being placed on the water surface for a while. Something pulled it down. of. And since such black blocks are a means of life-saving for swamp worms, they should also have a certain repelling effect on creatures that like to catch floating objects in the river.

There is no fish hook, and there is no stone hook that can replace the fish hook for the time being. There is no way, Shao Xuan simply tied a stone worm directly.

I used earthworms to fish in my last life, but I have never seen earthworms in my life, so I tried using stone worms instead. The tribe said that the creatures in the water are very fierce, and they should not care about such a simple bait. Shao Xuan didn't plan to catch a fish now without a hook. If the fish in the water eat stone worms, it would not be too late for Shao Xuan to polish a fish hook tomorrow.

The stone worm was just asked by Caesar to dig and fasten it at the front end of the straw rope, but this is only temporary. If the stone worm is resistant to water, it will slip away from the straw rope after a long time. There are not enough tools, so I can only try this first, the stone worm slips away, and it's a big deal to dig another one.

The black hemisphere acting as a fish float was tied about half a meter away from the end of the rope. Shao Xuan did not intend to test the deep water. Standing on the edge of the shoal, Shao Xuan threw the bait and the black hemisphere out. Under the weight of the grass rope and the stone worm, although the black hemisphere sank a little, it still floated steadily on the surface of the water. Shao Xuan watched it based on it to judge what might happen under the water.

The straw rope he carried on his body was not long, less than five meters together, and Shao Xuan was still very close to the place where the stone worm was thrown. Standing on the shore, Shao Xuan's feet did not touch the water, so pay attention to the water surface, and be prepared for any accident so that he can get away in time. There were guards guarding soldiers not far away, and he ran there first in case of danger.

When Shao Xuan was doing all this, the two soldiers who were guarding the riverbank were also very curious about Shao Xuan's purpose. They originally thought that the child was going to go into the water, and planned to carry the child away and throw it back into the hole later. Will see this series of strange behavior. Therefore, after the two looked at each other, they did not go to pick up someone for the time being, but stared at Shao Xuan.

"Caesar, as soon as I let me pull it, you can pull the rope." Shao Xuan put the other end of the rope in Caesar's mouth, and he held the middle section.

After waiting for a while without seeing any movement in the water, Shao Xuan thought to himself: Could it be that there are no fish in the water near the shoal? Or something in the water isn't interested in stone worms

Before the words were finished, the black hemisphere attached to the water surface sank suddenly.

Got it! !

The rope in Shao Xuan's hand slid rapidly, and the palm of his hand was aching hot due to the friction of the straw rope. Shao Xuan clenched the rope and pulled it back, while calling for help from Caesar standing behind him: "Caesar, pull!"

Although it was a bit sudden, Shao Xuan could feel that the force of pulling into the water was not beyond what he could bear, so he asked Caesar to help pull it, wanting to see what was biting the bait in the water.

Caesar clenched the straw rope tightly and pulled it back hard, dragging people so many times, it was not that he had not pulled the rope before.

The two warriors who were watching from a short distance were nervous. They had never been in the water. Even if they came to the river bank, they would just dab some water on the edge to wash the animal skins. They would not take another step into the water. In the summer, I have seen a huge river beast appearing on the water in the distance. Coupled with the bloody incidents about this river that the tribe has passed down from generation to generation, I have always maintained a cautious and fearful attitude towards this river. Now I suddenly see Shao Xuan was surprised when he pulled something from the river, and the string in his heart was suddenly tense, for fear that something big would come out of the water.

"In the past?" A soldier bumped his companion with his elbow.

"Go... go... let's take a look..." The other hesitated, not knowing what to think, and said.

There was wind blowing from the river to the bank, with moisture and a faint fishy smell. I don't know if it was the smell of water creatures or something else, but this smell made the two warriors more and more nervous.

Shao Xuan could feel something in the water pulling through the straw rope in his hand. He wanted to drag it into the water, but he wanted to pull it up to the shore, but Shao Xuan was slightly better. something to pull out.

The thing that was biting the bait was about to take shape, and the surface of the water in the shallow water splashed and splashed because of the violent struggle and pull of the underwater creatures.

Shao Xuan clenched the rope tightly, stared at the surface of the water and pulled back with concentration, when suddenly a picture flashed in front of him from far to near, like a big mouth with countless fine teeth biting towards this side, the whole mouth almost Shrouded Shao Xuan's head!

When he was about to touch Shao Xuan, the screen quickly disappeared.

The screen flashed too fast, and Shao Xuan was gone before he had time to avoid it.

Shao Xuan shook his head, thinking that he was probably too nervous and had hallucinations.

When the two warriors came to Shao Xuan's side, what was in the water had already revealed its full picture.

It was a strange looking fish, about half a meter long, and the fish head took up two-thirds of the entire fish body. When pulled out of the water, the fish mouth was still biting on the rope tied to the stone worm, and it did not want to let go. the meaning of.

"Continue pulling, don't stop!" Seeing the rushing warrior standing beside him, not looking like he was about to take action, Shao Xuan greeted Caesar to continue.

For the first time towing a fish, in addition to being surprised and vigilant at the sight of unknown creatures, Caesar quickly bit the straw rope and pulled back with all his might.

After pulling the fish out of the water and pulling it back for a while to make sure the fish would not jump back into the water, Shao Xuan let go.

"Finally out! Good Kay... Caesar! Shunkou, where are you Tamar going to drag the fish?!"

Caesar still pouted his butt, bit the rope and pulled back, while pulling his throat, he let out a low growl. Obviously, the fish was pulled out of the water to make it vigilant. , it continues.

When he heard Shao Xuan's words, Caesar let go of his mouth reluctantly, and approached the fish that was still flapping its tail carefully, baring his teeth as if he was going to take a bite.

From the place where Shao Xuan stood at the beginning to the site of the stone-throwing worm, it was only a few steps away. It was estimated that the water depth at the place where the bait was placed was not deep enough for people, but I didn't expect such a ferocious fish activity in the shallow water area. Look at the big mouth , full of fine teeth, and biting the bait will not let go, after being dragged ashore out of the water, he slaps his tail vigorously, struggles violently, and looks like he will not give up until he pulls off the bait.

A soldier who came over pierced the piece with a spear that he did not know whether it was a stone or the spear of his aunt and nephew. He used a lot of force, and the spear came out very quickly. The spear directly penetrated the body of the fish and nailed the fish to the shore. on the ground.

The pierced fish only loosened the rope at this time, opened and closed its mouth forcefully, and the fish head swung, as if it was about to bite the things around it.

As for the straw rope that was loosened by the fish, there was only a piece of residue left of the stone worm that was originally tied to it, and the straw rope was about to be bitten off.

The straw rope used by Shao Xuan is very tough and wear-resistant. He knitted it by himself.

When his eyes fell on the open mouth of the strange fish, Shao Xuan was startled.

The most obvious thing about the fish head is the big mouth. In the big mouth of the strange fish, you can see countless fine fangs. Teeth of such proportions seem to be born to bite and kill. The pulling force was slightly stronger. If it wasn't for Caesar's help, Shao Xuan alone might not have been able to pull it out of the water so quickly.

If the nearby diving area is full of these kinds of fish, people will probably be gnawed to the bones when they enter the water. This is just one of the fish, and there may be other more terrifying things. It is no wonder that even the totem warriors in the tribe are reluctant to go into the water.

Shao Xuan shuddered at the thought of what would happen when the tribe's children went into the water.

Moreover, when I was pulling the rope just now, the picture that flashed in front of my eyes seemed to be this fish mouth full of fine fangs...

Shao Xuan stared at Yuzui, and he thought of the visions he saw in front of the stone and earth fence of that remote mountain village at the end of his last life.

The two warriors next to him saw Shao Xuan staring at Yuzui in a daze, and thought that Shao Xuan was frightened and did not dare to approach this hideous creature.

It was the first time that Shao Xuan had seen such a fish, but one of the two warriors had seen it.

"When I hadn't awakened to the power of the totem, I followed my father to the river and saw this kind of prey once. The witch said it was called fish. The water is full of danger. At that time, there was a woman in the tribe who washed animal skins by the river. His arm was bitten off, and my father stabbed one to death with a spear."

As he said that, the soldier glanced at Shao Xuan. He did not expect that Shao Xuan, a child, would be able to drag the fish up from the water without entering the water. Back then, his father went into the water at the risk of the boss and rescued the woman who was dragged into the water. Yes, unfortunately, half of the woman's arm was gone when she was rescued. For a period of time after that, women in the tribe stopped coming to the river to wash animal skins, unless the stream on the mountain narrowed during the drought, and they had to come here to fetch water.

Shao Xuan came back to his senses, the pierced fish was dead.

The soldier who pierced the fish pulled out the spear, took the fish off the spear head, and handed it to Shao Xuan with the tail of the fish.

"Here, this is your prey. Good job! You will definitely become an excellent warrior in the future!" After thinking about it, the warrior said again: "You better stay away from the water, except for fish in the river. , there are a lot of dangerous things, not every time I can be so lucky."

However, half an hour later, Shao Xuan, who was considered "not so lucky every time", used the same method to drag a fish that was bigger than before out of the water.

The two warriors: "..."
