When the sun sets, there are sparks of fire at a certain distance from the bamboo forest.

The people of the Bear Tribe, who had harvested a lot, sat together here. Several pottery jars were filled with bubbling water, and inside them were bamboo shoots that had been peeled and cut into large pieces casually with rough tools.

Some people who couldn't wait had already started eating the peeled bamboo shoots raw, just like they did when they didn't have clay pots.

The leader of the bear tribe did not eat it raw, but sat there patiently waiting for the water in the jar to boil.

Since the invention of the clay pot, the leader of the Bear Tribe, like most tribes that have clay pots, has been accustomed to putting some things in the pot to cook them.

While waiting for the bamboo shoots to be cooked, the leader of the Bear Tribe and some other people would occasionally glance at the not-too-far-away bamboo forest, which had already become dark and connected.

There is a scary animal in the bamboo forest, and that animal is the black and white bear.

Compared with the grizzly bears that sometimes appear around the tribe, these black and white bears are not too violent or aggressive.

Of course, having said that, the black and white bear is still someone they are not willing to provoke easily.

Because these black and white bears, which are not very aggressive, are more terrifying than the grizzly bears that occasionally appear near the tribe when they really start to go crazy.

Once upon a time, at this time of year, when the people of the Bear Tribe were digging bamboo shoots to eat, someone killed a black and white bear cub and prepared to roast it for eating.

The result was that before the man could light the fire, he was beaten to the ground in an extremely brutal manner by the huge black and white bear that came over.

More than half of the head was eaten.

Two other people from the tribe were also implicated.

From then on, the people of the Bear Tribe firmly remembered that black and white bears were not to be messed with.

When digging bamboo shoots to eat, try not to go too deep into the bamboo forest.

When you encounter a black and white bear, try to avoid it as much as possible, especially when you encounter those fat and clumsy black and white bear cubs, you should stay as far away from them as possible.

After all, these seemingly harmless guys are actually more lethal to people.

But this time it was different. The leader of the bear tribe came here not only to lead people to dig bamboo shoots to eat, but also to take the opportunity to catch a black and white bear cub and bring it back.

The black and white bear is indeed not easy to mess with, but when will the score be determined?

When food is plentiful or relatively easy to obtain, the people of the bear tribe are naturally unwilling to come into conflict with the black and white bears.

Because doing so would be counterproductive. Instead of risking such a great risk to deal with the black and white bear, they might as well go find other herbivorous prey to bully.

It’s different now.

They are used to eating salt, so in order to get more salt, they are willing to take such risks...

As night gradually fell and the firelight flickered, the leader of the Bear Tribe, who had eaten boiled bamboo shoots that had lost much of their flavor due to lack of salt, turned his head to look at the dark bamboo forest and clenched his fists.

Then I started thinking about what to do when I encounter a black and white bear cub...

The sunlight shines down, making the bamboo leaves appear somewhat transparent.

In the bamboo forest covered with a layer of dead bamboo leaves accumulated over the years, people from the Bear Tribe were moving slowly forward on the bamboo leaves. From time to time, someone would squat down and use the digging tools in their hands to dig out some bamboo shoots that had just shown their pointed ends.

Farther away, the leader of the Bear Tribe, who was walking in front, held a long weapon in his hand and kept scratching the dead branches in front of him, making a rustling sound.

Along with the rustling sound of weapons sweeping through dead leaves, from time to time some things would wriggle their bodies and quickly run away into the distance.

Those are snakes living in the bamboo forest.

After digging bamboo shoots in the bamboo forest for a long time, some smart person discovered this characteristic of snakes, and thus the skill of scaring off the snake appeared in the bear tribe and was passed down from generation to generation.

As they walked slowly, the leader of the bear tribe and some other people kept looking around, hoping to see the black and white bear.

By now, the people of the Bear Tribe who came here have been divided into two parts.

The seven fastest runners, including the leader of the bear tribe, were responsible for finding and capturing the black and white bear cubs, while the other large group of people who were not as fast as them were digging bamboo shoots on the outskirts of the bamboo forest.

Moreover, in order to avoid entangling the tribesmen who were digging bamboo shoots outside the bamboo forest during their escape after they captured the black and white bear cubs, the leader of the bear tribe led these people around the outside of the bamboo forest and walked a long way elsewhere before starting to move closer to the bamboo forest.

Death always makes people understand certain truths, and these truths containing blood are often remembered very clearly.

For example, the response strategy currently adopted by the leader of the bear tribe. If the tribe had not been attacked by black and white bears before, he would never have thought of such a safe method.

After another round of searching, the leader of the Bear Tribe pulled aside a few bamboos with his hands and looked up at the position of the sun. Although he felt a little regretful, he still spoke and led his men back.

Because after leaving the bamboo forest they still have to walk a long distance before they can meet up with the people in the tribe. If they don't leave early, they won't be able to get there before dark.

When we were about to walk out of the bamboo forest, we suddenly heard a noise from the slope on one side.

The leader of the bear tribe subconsciously looked up and saw a black and white ball of fur rolling down the slope, crushing the dry bamboo leaves.

Before the leader of the bear tribe could react, the small ball had already rolled in front of him.

The fat body bounced twice on the ground, and then it hugged the legs of the bear tribe leader and licked the legs of the bear tribe leader with its tongue.

Maybe he felt that the bamboo of the wrong color was salty and tasted better than the previous bamboo, so he couldn't help but licked it again.

"#￥%..."

The leader of the bear tribe was surprised and delighted. He stopped being dazed and bent down to hug the guy who was about to take a third lick. He shouted and turned around and ran away.

His years of experience in digging bamboo shoots in the bamboo forest taught him that generally speaking, the big black and white bear would not be too far away from the small black and white bear.

The rest of the people also followed their leader and ran away.

Not long after the leader of the Bear Tribe and his men ran away, there was another noise on the slope, and a larger black and white ball rolled down.

This guy obviously didn't realize that his cub had been kidnapped. He rolled over twice on the spot, then stood up awkwardly, looked around, and began to casually look for his troublesome cub...
