Chapter 54 Burning the Forest
The number of bamboo-eating beasts in the bamboo forest is not particularly small. Fengyun only hunted one in the morning, but his method was not right.
It is not wrong to look for the flaws exposed by the bamboo-eating beasts when eating, but it is impossible for bamboo-eating beasts to eat all day long. Most of the time, they are doing other things.
In other words, the number of bamboo-eating beasts that can be found is very small just by catching the flaws exposed when eating, and it cannot meet the assessment requirements of Bao at all.
Fortunately he found a better way.
Monitor the situation underground through bamboo tubes, so as to locate the traces of bamboo-eating beasts.
Compared with eating, bamboo eaters will spend more time digging tunnels, or running in tunnels, and the sounds produced by these activities are much quieter than those they make when eating.
Even if Fengyun's ear strength has been greatly enhanced due to the improvement of physical fitness, it is impossible for him to hear these voices, at least he can't do it now, after all, the sound is covered by the thick soil.
Inserting the bamboo tube into the ground is different, it is equivalent to extending his ears to the ground, and it is much easier to catch the sound of the bamboo-eating beast.
Being able to capture their sounds, he can then determine their location and hunt them down.
It's just very difficult.
First of all, it is difficult to determine their positions, in fact, it is very difficult to lock them.
They make sounds because they are moving, and moving causes them to constantly change position.
If he wanted to hunt them down, he had to plunge his spear from the ground into the ground, and the bamboo-eating beasts were not big, so they needed extremely high precision to hit them successfully.
This is also the reason why Fengyun failed many times in a row at the beginning. If there is a slight deviation, all previous efforts will be wasted.
However, after trying again and again, summing up experience and correcting errors, he finally achieved a precise hit.
Although one success does not mean that he will succeed every time in the future, but with successful experience, it will be much less difficult to achieve success again.
Fengyun's subsequent performance also showed that he has indeed mastered the ability to accurately hunt and kill bamboo beasts.
In the beginning, he often missed, three or four times out of ten, or even half the chance of returning empty-handed, but as time went on, his success rate became higher and higher.
By the time the sun is about to set, the chance of his success will no less than 80%.
Looking at the dense bamboo-eating beasts hanging on the bamboo poles, Fengyun decided to stop hunting temporarily and go back to deal with them.
Back in the cave, Fengyun counted them, and there were twenty-five in total. Although they had not yet reached the daily hunting quantity stipulated by Bao, they were not far behind.
Most importantly, this is what he gained in less than half a day.
If you hunt for a whole day, you can kill more than fifty of them no matter what.
As he takes more shots, he will accumulate more and more experience and experience, which in turn will increase his chances of success in hunting.
Therefore, if there is no accident, he will only hunt and kill more and more bamboo-eating beasts every day.
Due to limited conditions, Fengyun has very limited methods to deal with the bamboo-eating beasts, but he still came up with tricks.
Using bamboo as a pot, he put the chopped animal meat into it and boiled it, which made him cook a delicious soup.
In the end, all the bamboo-eating beasts were eaten by him, but it was already midnight, so it took a lot of time.
Fengyun felt it was worth it.
He discovered a secret.
Although bamboo-eating beasts are not savage beasts, their effectiveness is not much worse than that of savage beasts.
Fengyun can feel that they have a strong nourishing effect.
After eating them and being swallowed again, he felt very comfortable in his body.
Although the heat flow from his stomach was much worse than when he ate wild beast meat, when they spread to his whole body,
It's like the earth is moistened by spring rain and full of vitality.
I don't know if it was an illusion, but after eating the meat of the bamboo-eating beast, Fengyun felt that his vitality had been enhanced.
He was very curious about the changes in his body, but he finally gave up exploring.
He doesn't have the ability to understand the deep secrets of the body, at least he can't do it yet.
Three days later, Fengyun had put 227 front teeth of bamboo-eating beasts in his animal skin bag, and he had already overfulfilled the task.
There are still two days before the time agreed upon by Bao, Fengyun feels a little bored.
Before, he hunted and killed bamboo beasts to complete the assessment, but now that the goal has been achieved, he has lost the motivation to continue hunting.
As for exercising reaction speed, direction determination, and anticipation ability, he already felt that there was not much room for improvement.
Before completing the assessment, he was able to achieve a 100% hit rate.
In the end, he was able to directly track the whereabouts of the bamboo-eating beast without the help of the bamboo tube.
He didn't know if this happened to him only.
In the process of searching for bamboo-eating beasts through the bamboo tube, his hearing has greatly improved. In the end, even if he throws away the bamboo tube, he can still capture the sounds they make when they move.
The ability to determine the direction and predict the direction seems to have become his instinct. After each shot, he no longer needs to obtain the coordinates through complicated calculations as he did at the beginning.
Thinking about it, you don't have to think about it, you will naturally know where to throw the spear, and the result is that you successfully took the lives of the bamboo-eating beasts.
If this is the effect that Bao wants to achieve, Feng Yun has already achieved it perfectly.
On the sixth day, after Fengyun had breakfast, he wandered in the bamboo forest.
During this period, he had already locked the position of several bamboo-eating beasts, and he could kill them as long as he shot, but he didn't do this. He was already a little tired of this kind of activity that no longer challenged him.
"How about going to the forest that looks like it's on fire?"
Fengyun's mind suddenly came up with the strangely colored forest he saw when he climbed to the top of the mountain.
"Will there be any danger?"
Before leaving, he hesitated again.
"Danger? In this strange world, the most indispensable thing is danger. Even if the forest is dangerous, if you escape today, you will still encounter various dangers in the future."
"This time, it's time to practice in advance. Besides, if you really encounter an irresistible danger, you can also ask for help from Rio. There is nothing to be afraid of."
A voice jumped out of Feng Yun's mind, retorting loudly.
Feng Yun turned around and walked towards the forest, he was persuaded, in fact he was persuaded by himself.
Three hours later, Fengyun appeared outside the forest.
As if we had made an appointment, there was a blank area about twenty feet wide between the bamboo forest and the strange forest, and there was not a single bamboo or red-leaved tree in the middle.
Such a strange situation made Fengyun couldn't help raising his vigilance.
He didn't step into the blank area rashly, but gathered his eyes and looked at the opposite forest.
It is very calm and normal. There are various plants growing under the tree, and insects and small animals can also be seen. The only thing that seems strange is the color of the leaves.
Out of caution, he activated the snake god's eyes, but he still didn't find anything unusual.
After thinking about it, Fengyun retreated.
Instead of leaving, he found a straight and long bamboo, cut it off from the root, removed the branches and leaves, and turned it into a bamboo pole with a length of six or seven feet.
He held the spear in his right hand, grasped the root of the bamboo pole with his left hand, and stretched forward.
slap...
Before stepping into the blank area, Fengyun used his long bamboo pole to pump the ground a few times vigorously.
His pupils suddenly narrowed.
As the bamboo pole beat the ground, gray-white smoke and dust rose.
At this time, a gust of wind suddenly blew the gray-white smoke towards the red leaf forest, and finally fell under the tree.
Neither the red-leaf tree nor the plants under the tree changed. What changed were the insects and small animals living under the tree. After they were contaminated by smoke and dust, they all fell to the ground.
"What a horrible smoke!"
Fengyun couldn't help taking a deep breath.
Taking a few steps back, Feng Yun once again activated the eyes of the snake god and looked at the insects and small animals that fell to the ground.
"Fortunately, none of them died."
In the vision of the snake god's eyes, their state has not changed much from what he saw before, and it is not much different from other insects and small animals that are not contaminated by smoke and dust.
"Do you want to go there?"
Fengyun hesitated again.
He didn't know if his adventure was worth it, and the most important thing was that he couldn't be sure what benefits this adventure could bring him.
If you get nothing after entering the red leaf forest, the risk is not worth it.
"Do you want to go and have a look?"
Just as Fengyun was constantly weighing the pros and cons, a voice suddenly sounded not far behind him.
Fengyun was startled at first, but soon calmed down, turned around slowly, looked directly at the person who came, and asked each word in a word: "Uncle Bao, are you following me?"
"No, and I don't need it. I have searched this bamboo forest many times, and there are no powerful beasts, nor any terrible poisonous insects. I don't have to worry about your safety at all."
"So, why should I follow you? I might as well go to sleep when I have time."
Bao behaved very frankly, and what he said should be the truth.
"Then why did you suddenly appear behind me?"
"What do you mean I suddenly appeared behind you? You leaned over yourself, okay?"
"According to you, you've been around these days? But why are you here?"
"Still asking me? Aren't you the best answer?"
"I'm just answering?"
Fengyun showed a thoughtful expression.
"Uncle Bao, do you want to say that you are here just to prevent Lei Ge and me from entering this red leaf forest?"
"You have finally figured it out. But this forest is not called Red Leaf Forest, but Huoshao Forest, isn't it more vivid?"
"It is indeed more image than the red leaf forest. Well, I have a question to ask Uncle Bao, how do you know that Lei Ge and I may come to burn the forest?"
"Young people are full of curiosity. Seeing the burning forest is so strange, it is rare to be able to suppress curiosity. Don't forget, I was young once, and I know the thoughts of you young people very clearly."
Looking at Fengyun, Bao Bao showed a smug smile, as if I had already seen through you.
