survival in the wilderness

Chapter 205

After Lin Yan and the others left, the busy sowing began in Sun City. In the new year, the land thawed out and everything recovered. It was a good time to plow and sow.

Without being urged, every household understands the importance of farming and invests in the land one after another.

Last year, the number of cows in the city increased by five, and the lambs also grew stronger.

Someone came up with a whimsical idea, thinking that the grown-up sheep looked no weaker than the cow, so they carried the iron plow, put the reins on their own sheep and went to the field.

There was a family that started it, and after it was proved that it was feasible, the people with sheep were inspired and could no longer sit still, and drove their own sheep to work with the plow.

Huahong was walking on the edge of the field and saw the white and black sheep pulling plows in the field. They were not much slower than cattle and could turn the soil just the same.Enviously, he said to Jin Zai: "It would be great if we had a sheep. Who came up with this good idea? Sheep can work just like cows."

"Huo Huo's family was the first to use sheep to pull the plow, and others followed suit." Jin Zai had already inquired, "The price of lambs in the city has increased. They used to sell for 1 cents, but now they cost 1 cents. .”

"It's increased by two cents. This is only the first day. Will it be more expensive tomorrow? Do we want to buy a lamb?" Huahong was a little anxious, and it would become more expensive after a few more days.

Jin Zai was not in a hurry, "When you buy a lamb, someone needs to feed it twice a day, mow the grass and herd the sheep. We don't have that many people in our family."

Hua Hong thought about it, "You're right, it's easy to buy sheep, but difficult to raise them. Forget it, I won't buy it."

After seeing the effect of the sheep pulling the plow, many people were moved, and the price of the lamb was one day.

Compared with the scarcity of cattle, sheep reproduce very quickly.All the families who could afford it raised sheep for the convenience of farming and to save money for plowing the land.

All of a sudden, there was a wave of raising sheep in Sun City.

With sheep, more land can be cultivated.Immediately afterwards, more people joined the army of land reclamation.

Compared with the hustle and bustle in Sun City, Lin Yan and his party did not dare to show their atmosphere at this moment.

It's been ten days since they came out, and they still haven't gone out of the pika field. The dense forest is full of dense grass, and there is no gap for people to walk through.

It had been several years since he had walked in such a dense forest. At first, Lin Yan was a little uncomfortable. The linen clothes on his body were all scratched all day long.

Seeing this situation, Blue Star rearranged the team. Three people led the way ahead, ten people guarded, and the rest took the opportunity to search for new species.

This trip has no destination and is not in a hurry. The speed of the team's progress is very slow.

Lin Yan has gained a lot. From the time he came out to now, the Science and Technology Museum has collected more than 80 new plants, and the contribution value has increased by more than 500.

Huang Ying was also very satisfied, and found several new herbs, collected herbs with her companions, and made specimens.She writes and draws in a notebook and records a lot.

Walking and stopping, Lin Yan and Lan Yue would climb up to observe the surrounding terrain when they encountered a big tree, and draw what they saw.

On the tenth day, however, their luck seemed to run out when they ran head-on with two gigantic apes, three meters tall, muscular, and covered in brown hair.

The two apes suddenly appeared in front of them, and no one noticed them. When they saw them, they were already three meters away.

The sudden change made people jump, and then the two sides confronted each other. Everyone didn't dare to move, and stared at the ape.

Lin Yan swallowed nervously, thinking that these two big guys would be hard to mess with at first glance.They are huge and sensitive, and their eyes are full of curiosity.

The first time they met, everyone raised their crossbow arrows, and several people immediately shot arrows, but the ape's limbs were extremely flexible, and while dodging, he grabbed the arrow with his bare hands.

They brought the best crossbow bolts on this trip, which were fast and destructive, but they were of no use to apes.

The ape picked up the arrow and looked at it curiously, and then threw it towards them, making a sound of piercing through the air. The person standing in the front didn't dodge, barely avoiding the vital point, and was stuck in the thigh by the arrow.

At that moment, everyone felt that it was over.

Everyone subconsciously stopped, not daring to act rashly.

The apes didn't rush over either, looking at them curiously.

Then, someone couldn't stand it anymore and moved slightly, and the ape immediately looked over.

The silence was stagnant, and the sounds of insects and birds seemed to have disappeared. Lin Yan had no chance of winning if he wanted to go head-to-head, so he had to outsmart him.

She found that the apes had no malice towards them, just pure curiosity.It seems to have found something interesting and imitated human behavior.

It is a blessing in misfortune to not have the intention to kill, and the most feared thing is that they will suddenly become violent.

In a hurry, Lin Yan slowly stretched out his hand and took out a steamed bun from the cloth bag he was carrying.Although she moved slightly, she still attracted the attention of the apes.

Then, under everyone's anxious and puzzled eyes, Lin Yan slowly walked to the front, facing the ape directly.

Lan Xing was right in front. Seeing Lin Yan approaching, he hurriedly said, "What are you doing here? Back off quickly."

When Lan Xing spoke, the mouth of the ape on the opposite side opened and closed, making a strange sound, like a roar, with a tone of voice.

Lin Yan looked at them in surprise, is this learning to speak?

Lan Xing didn't dare to speak again, for fear of offending the apes, and the consequences would be even more unpredictable.

Lin Yan ignored Lan Xing, raised the steamed bun in his hand, and handed it to the ape.

After waiting, the ape came over, took the steamed bun from Lin Yan's hand, squeezed it with his claws, and it immediately turned into crumbs.

They looked at Lin Yan, wondering what the little dwarf wanted to do.

Lin Yan was speechless, she just wanted to share delicious food with them, who knew that the apes could not control their strength, and instantly became scum.

Smiling, Lin Yan took out another steamed bun and broke it in half. She stuffed a small half of the steamed bun into her mouth to chew, and handed out the remaining half.

One of the apes looked at Lin Yan and took the steamed bun. This time, it learned to control the steamed bun. It didn't break. Like Lin Yan, it stuffed the steamed bun into its big mouth, chewed it twice, and swallowed it. .

Then, the two apes stretched out their upper limbs in unison, beckoning Lin Yan to take it out again.

There were five steamed buns in the cloth bag, Lin Yan's dry food, she took out two more without hesitation.

The ape took the steamed bun, stuffed it into his mouth, and ate it.

After eating, he looked at the cloth bag straddling Lin Yan. Lin Yan was so short that the ape might feel uncomfortable looking down at her, so he stretched out his strong left upper limb and lifted her up to look at him.

Seeing this scene, the others gasped, but they couldn't do anything.

Lan Xing was about to slash with his knife, and shouted anxiously, "Lin Yan, look for a chance to run."

Lin Yan suddenly felt something was wrong, and hurriedly shouted: "Don't move, listen to me."

Lan Yue hesitated for a moment, then slowly put down the big knife in her hand, and the others also stopped.
