Chapter 376
Seeing that the guy on the ground had died, Zhou Chen slowly pulled out the arrow from the opponent's body.

"The barking deer is the largest type of deer. Generally speaking, an adult barking deer has a body length of about 1 meter, a tail length of 17-21 centimeters, and a weight of 25-30 kilograms."

After measuring the guy at his feet, Zhou Chen guessed: "This is a male barking deer. Judging by its size, its weight should have exceeded 30 kilograms."

"The barking deer is a solitary animal with a timid and cautious habit. It mostly looks for food at night or in the early morning and dusk. During the day, it hides in the bushes and rests. When it is frightened, it can make extremely loud barking sounds similar to dogs. It is very fixed, when being chased and fleeing, no matter how far you run, you will eventually return to your original area of ​​activity.”

Zhou Chen paused, and then said: "In other words, this red deer lived in this area."

He squatted halfway, stroking the single-forked and inward-curving horns on the bark deer's head.

"It's easy to confuse muntjacs with deer people, but the difference between the two is quite obvious."

"The muntjac has small fangs, and its whole body is yellow-brown or reddish-brown. The main difference in appearance from deer is the horns, which are pointed and curved inward, and have many vertical vertical lines. The forehead runs along the direction of the horns. Two black stripes extend out, concentrating on the nose, and some longitudinal prismatic protrusions appear at the base of some horns."

"In fact, muntjac is the earliest deer. Fossils have been dug out in the strata of the Miocene, which means that muntjac has appeared 1500 million years ago."

After listening to Zhou Chen's explanation, everyone seemed to have opened the door to a new world.

Rinse the blood on the arrow with lake water, and Zhou Chen put it back into the quiver.

He dragged the barking deer to the lake, seemed to think of something suddenly, and said with a smile: "As far as I know, the barking deer has keen hearing, but is extremely timid by nature. Even, they can't even move around, which is why they are easily captured by humans or other beasts."

He paused and joked, "I guess this guy might be dizzy..."

As soon as these words came out, the people at the scene and the audience in the live broadcast room couldn't stop laughing.

After cleaning up the red deer by the lake, everyone returned to the camp.

Today's hunting was very successful. Although there were not many prey, only one, but dozens of catties of meat were harvested.

For dinner, the fat man took the initiative to invite Ying, and made a meal of his best braised pork, which made everyone's mouths full of oil.

After drinking and eating, Zhou Chen and Jiang Wan went out to eat.

"Hey, look, how is my hanging foot trap arranged?"

Jiang Wan patted the dust off her hands, and said proudly.

Zhou Chen picked up a wooden stick to trigger the test.

slap~
The moment the stick touches the trap, the trap is triggered.

Zhou Chen nodded and praised: "Not bad, not bad, very sensitive."

When Jiang Wan heard this, her little head rose even higher.

"Okay, okay, you are the best, go and reset the trap."

Zhou Chen rubbed the other person's head and said dotingly.

After setting several traps around the lake, the two returned to the camp.

"Boss, let us guard in the first half of the night."

Seeing Zhou Chen returning, the fat man ran over and spoke first.

Seeing that the other party was so active, Zhou Chen smiled slightly, "What are you guys planning?"

Zhou Chen glanced at Fatty and Li Qiang with meaningful eyes.

"Oh, it's nothing, it's just that we played a game of chess just now, and we haven't decided the winner yet."

Zhou Chen's eyes were as sharp as a falcon, and the fat man felt that he was seen through by the other party in an instant.

"Chess?"

Zhou Chen was puzzled.

"follow me."

The fat man led him to the campfire, pointed to the chessboard on the ground, and said, "This is it..."

Good guy.

Zhou Chen discovered that beside the bonfire, there was actually a chessboard, and the chess pieces were carved out of the boards left over from Zhou Chen's longbow.

Picking up a chess piece, he looked at it carefully.

Although the production of chess pieces is a bit rough, it does not affect the use.

"You plan to... play chess during the night watch?"

Zhou Chen questioned.

Hearing this, Li Qianggang quickly raised his hand and replied, "Don't worry, boss, don't we have three people? Two people play chess and the other is responsible for observing the situation. There will be no problems."

When the other party was speaking, he glanced at He Jianzhong beside him.

He Jianzhong also hastily explained, "Don't worry, brother Chen, we didn't play chess for the sake of playing chess. The main reason is that it is easy to get sleepy at night, so we came up with this strategy."

Seeing that the three of them had made promises, Zhou Chen nodded slowly, "It's not impossible, but you must be more vigilant."

"Good boss!"

The three responded in unison.

Zhou Chen was startled when he saw this, then he smiled and got into the shelter first.

In the past few days, Zhou Chen felt the tediousness and fatigue of leading the team.

It turned out that he slept very well, even if he was alone in the wilderness, Zhou Chen could fall asleep quickly.

But since he led the team, he has never slept soundly, and even wakes up at night.

Maybe it was because he was too tired, or the new camp gave him a lot of sense of security, Zhou Chen fell asleep not long after entering the shelter.

This time, he slept peacefully.

Zhou Chen didn't wake up until Li Qiang, who was changing the guard, woke him up.

"How about it?"

Zhou Chen rubbed his sore neck and asked casually.

"It's okay, don't worry."

Li Qiang smiled and handed the longbow to Zhou Chen.

Fatty also handed over the crossbow to Liang Tian.

After having the weapon, everyone's courage and momentum came out.

Especially after hunting a barking deer today, people are more relaxed.

After the three changed shifts, it was Liang Tian and Zhou Chen's turn to take charge of the night watch.

According to the work and rest habits of modern people, the second half of the night is actually more tormented than the first half of the night.

This is Liang Tian's current state. Although he is sitting opposite Zhou Chen, the other party has already begun to nod his head.

Zhou Chen didn't wake up the other party, but put the crossbow in the other party's hand aside.

After moving to the lake, the croaking of insects and frogs became more serious than before.

At one o'clock in the morning, the island is still extremely noisy.

Zhou Chen sat by the campfire and looked at the starry sky.

Today is their fourth day on the island.

According to the plan, they have to survive on this small island for 7 days. Although half of the time has passed, the small island is still in the fog.

Now the camp has more food and water.

Zhou Chen decided that after dawn, he would explore the depths of the island.

The reason why Liang Tian was not brought along was because the other party's physique was too weak, and if something went wrong, it would be even more troublesome.

Zhou Chen always felt that this island was unusual.

If he can't explore it, he will always itch in his heart.

Time passed slowly, and before I knew it, it was already dawn.

After washing half of his face by the lake, Zhou Chen went out to check the trap set up last night.

To his delight, the first trap paid off.

After unloading the pheasant floating back and forth in the air, he continued to check other traps.

In the end, Zhou Chen harvested a pheasant and a hare.

After breakfast, Zhou Chen bid farewell to everyone.

When they heard that the other party was going to travel alone, everyone was both shocked and took it for granted.

Especially Liang Tian.

He didn't refute the whole time.

Seemingly sensing Liang Tian's frustration, Zhou Chen comforted and said, "Don't worry, I'll go explore the road first, and then we'll go up the mountain together."

Liang Tian nodded, trying to hide his sadness.

In fact, Liang Tian's heart was tangled at this moment.

He wanted the other party to take him there, but he didn't want the other party to open his mouth.

He knew that Zhou Chen would have finished exploring the island long ago if he hadn't repeatedly wasted time.

After exploring the island twice, Liang Tian has already realized the fact that he is an oil bottle.

He didn't want to hold back the team, let alone Zhou Chen.

Just like that, under the gaze of everyone, Zhou Chen left the camp...
