132 Unicycle
◎ She sat down, patted the black panther's head, let him rest for a while, drank a sip of water herself, and put some water in the palm of her hand for the black panther to lick and drink.◎
But coal balls are too black. When they appear in the dark night, they are a disaster for prey. When they appear in the daytime, they are too obvious.
Seeing her looking at him, the black panther opened its mouth and looked at her innocently with its big eyes.
Okay, she waved at him, meaning to let him step back and not disturb her hunting plan.
Anyway, having a black panther by her side can provide some protection so that she doesn't have to fight alone.
It wasn't her first time hunting alone, and she wasn't afraid to fight with her prey, but it did feel good to have friends caring about her.
The black panther probably knew that its hair was too conspicuous, so it kept looking for shade to hide its body.
He was born with a different fur color from his companions, and he has become accustomed to his own peculiarity. Through long-term hunting practice, he also has his own special way of hiding.
Seeing that he deliberately fell far behind and kept hiding his figure, Qiao Jinnian was satisfied.
She doesn't have a keen sense of smell or excellent hearing, but she can observe traces on the ground to determine the direction in which her prey is moving.
Qiao Jinnian kept his head down, searching for traces around him. He had seen these antelopes before and knew their special hooves that were grown for walking in the desert.
What's more, she actually found a row of such footprints in the sand nearby.
She continued to move forward following the footprints. Her efforts paid off and she finally found a group of antelopes eating desert plants in front of her.
They don't need to drink water in their entire lives, eating these water-containing plants is enough, so they were born for the desert.
Qiao Jinnian crawled forward from a distance, hiding his body, holding a lasso in his hand, hoping to hit the antelope with one strike if possible.
The black panther knew she was going to hunt, so he hid in the shadows and kept watching her.
Being careful enough, Qiao Jinnian came to a sand pile and sat on the sand to avoid being discovered by the antelopes behind him. Then, taking advantage of the antelopes' unpreparedness, he quickly threw the noose over and put it around the head of an antelope. He pulled hard and the rope tightened. The antelope was frightened and bleated in panic.
The herd of antelopes also scattered and fled in an instant, running to other places.
When the antelope tried to jump to avoid, he found that he could not escape at all. He looked around and when he calmed down, he saw the two-legged beast standing in front of him.
Although he had never seen this kind of species, he was very angry now, very, very angry. He lowered his head, pointed his long horns at Qiao Jinnian, and started running towards her.
However, Qiao Jinnian would not wait foolishly for him to rush over. Instead, she stood straight in front of him, raised the spear in her hand, and stabbed it towards his head.
No matter how long the horns are, they are not as long as the spears. This is an inevitable result and it is the wisdom of mankind.
She has to hunt a prey for her lion father today.
The antelope soon fell to the ground in a pool of blood, growling "baa-baa--"
Since Black Panther came with her, Qiao Jinnian asked him to help her drag the prey.
The antelope was not big, but the cheetah dragged it backwards. Qiao Jinnian pulled one end of the rope, and together with the cheetah, they dragged the antelope home.
After spending the entire morning searching for prey and slowly approaching it until successfully capturing it, it was already noon, the sun was scorching, and the temperature in the desert was over 40 degrees Celsius.
Walking under the scorching sun, Qiao Jinnian casually placed a leaf on his head as a sun hat, bent his waist, and walked forward with all his strength. Sweat soaked his hemp rope clothes, but was instantly dried by the scorching sun.
She sat down, patted the black panther's head, let him rest for a while, drank a sip of water herself, and put some water in the palm of her hand for the black panther to lick and drink.
Black Panther was also curious about the fact that she carried water with her, and even wanted to dig into her water cup to see why there was water in it.
His claws were very sharp and he almost knocked the lid of the kettle off. If he had, the water would have poured out and been wasted.
After patting his big head, Qiao Jinnian said with a fierce look: "Don't move, or I'll hit you! Wuhou——"
After being hit on the head, Meiqiu bared his teeth and breathed at her: "Ha——"
He had been roared at twice by his father, yet this guy still dared to breathe. So, Qiao Jinnian didn't tolerate him and also breathed at him: "Ha——"
Black Panther: “…”
Seeing that he was confused by her breath, and probably began to suspect that the leopard had given birth, Qiao Jinnian deliberately said to him: "Meow?"
This is the cry of a cheetah. Then, the black panther opened its mouth and its eyes were dull, as if to say, "Are you stupid? I am a leopard, not a cheetah!"
"Hahaha..." Qiao Jinnian thought this guy was quite funny. He patted his head again, stood up, and the man and the leopard began to cooperate again.
Finally, after great effort, Qiao Jinnian finally dragged the prey back.
Then, Qiao Jinnian began to reflect on whether he needed to invent a wheelbarrow to drag the prey back home.
She was lucky today that no predator snatched her prey. It would have been terrible if other animals had snatched her prey on the road.
Moreover, the prey was really heavy. She was so small, and if it weren't for Black Panther's help, it would have been impossible to drag it back.
Putting the prey in front of his father, Qiao Jinnian said to the lion father: "Roar——"
What she meant was that this was the prey for the lion father to eat. As for whether he could finish it or share it with other lions, it was not her business, because she turned around and went to look for wood, preparing to make the wheelbarrow in the next two days.
The unicycle is very important and can help her a lot.
The lion father had a look of surprise on his face when his prey was suddenly thrown away. However, when they were in the eastern grasslands, his cubs would also hunt for him, so it was not surprising.
If the lion father wants to eat, he can still eat the whole prey.
This is what the cub caught for himself. Look at how tired he looks.
In fact, lion fathers sometimes look at their cubs and notice that their cubs have excellent physical fitness, as if they never need to rest. Even after just hunting, they still have the energy to do other things.
Unlike lions, after hunting, they need to rest for a while and recover their strength before they can start to enjoy the food.
Because of the hunting failure, the six lions can only take a day off today, lying under the tree to rest, and prepare to continue hunting the next day.
I thought that was it, but unexpectedly, the cub went hunting on its own and dragged the prey back to its father.
Oh my God, who has ever seen a little lion take care of an old lion and even go hunting for the old lion?
Obviously, the antelope cannot be eaten by everyone together, but it is no problem for the old lion to eat it all by himself.
However, the old lion did not do that. Instead, he lay down and finished eating by himself, and then called the other five to come and eat together.
The four little ones immediately became happy. They had just been watching the old lion eat, their saliva was flowing, and they were in a very depressed mood.
The golden retriever also ate silently, but while lowering his head to eat, he looked back at the cub running through the woods.
He still remembered the cub, the one that had once suckled milk in their lion pride in the valley.
The reason why I remember her so clearly is because she was so special.
At this moment, the golden retriever turned his head and looked at Ryan, who was licking his big paws comfortably after eating. He felt a little complicated and his eyes were far-sighted.
This antelope can only fill the lions' stomachs, but at least this way they will have strength to hunt tomorrow and won't be too weak.
Here, Qiao Jinnian was going to use the simplest method to make a wheelbarrow of his own creation. He would use a whole piece of wood on top to carry the prey, and a cross section of a tree stump on the bottom, which would be cut off and used as a tire.
Although she had never ridden a bicycle before, she imagined the appearance of a unicycle and felt that it seemed not difficult. If she failed once, she could try a few more times. It should be mainly a tire, with two long wooden boards fixed on the left and right sides of the tire, connected by a long wooden board and two handles, which made it convenient to push the car, and the prey could be placed on the board.
Well, it was just that the wood was not easy to cut, because she didn't have those tools, she only had a flint knife, which was quite sharp.
By the way, the wildebeest’s horns can also be used. Let’s find some harder stones.
It took her a whole week just to cut the wood, and she had to find many pieces of stone and animal horns.
After the materials were prepared, they were of course a little crooked because there were no measuring tools, but as long as the tire could move, nothing else mattered.
Fortunately, she found the roundest tree, whose cross-section could barely serve as a tire. In order to reduce the weight of the tire, she hollowed out the middle of the tire, just like a bicycle tire.
After tinkering with it for several days, a very ugly and strange unicycle was finally made.
Qiao Jinnian tried it. Well, although the wheels were not round enough, it was okay on flat roads, but it would be a bit bumpy on some surfaces.
But it's better than trying to drag the prey back by force.
Now that I had a unicycle, which I had spent two weeks making, I was so excited that I picked up the honey badger, put it on the unicycle, and then pushed it forward.
The honey badger didn't know what she was going to do and was about to ask her, but there was a pothole on the ground and the car shook violently, and the honey badger was also shaken up.
Flathead Brother: “…” What happened?
All the animals have seen that for the past two weeks, the two-legged beast seemed to be possessed and had been cutting trees all the time. No one knew what she was doing.
Now, they discovered that animals can stand on it and follow this thing?
So, could it be that the biped wants to carry someone, but she can't do it herself, so she wants to be such a useless waste?
Yes, in the eyes of animals, this thing has no idea what it does.
Even the honey badger was fed up with it. This thing was weird. He jumped off the car and felt that it was safer on the ground.
In order to test whether the wheelbarrow is strong, Qiao Jinnian plans to put an animal that is almost as heavy as a large antelope on it to try it out.
After looking for a long time, it seemed that only stripes met the requirements, but the stripes were too big and she couldn't fit them...
Ah! Well, she thought of an important question, that is, first of all, how to put the prey on the car?
