Chapter 21 Trap ([-])

Wang Lang has never been in contact with the overly complicated trap before, but the net pocket trap is the most classic trap in countless TV dramas. Out of curiosity, Wang Lang checked the specific principle on the Internet, so it is not difficult to make.

After more than a year of living in the wild, Wang Lang is very familiar with the terrain near the tribe. There is a big pit with a diameter of more than two meters nearby. That big pit can be said to be a natural trap, because the depth of the pit is nearly three meters. , Even if the prey is caught, no one can get it. Wang Lang didn't use it as a trap before, but now that there are enough people, that place reappeared in Wang Lang's mind.

Half an hour later, Wang Lang and the others were walking through a low bush. Jianya, who was opening the way in front of him, suddenly let out a scream, stepped on the ground suddenly, and fell straight down.

Wang Lang, who followed closely behind, reacted very quickly. Just when Jian Ya stumbled and fell, Wang Lang rushed over quickly and grabbed Jian Ya's hand, but Jian Ya's weight of more than 100 kilograms and the overgrown weeds on the ground were very wet. The huge inertia brought Wang Lang down into the pit. In a panic, Wang Lang grabbed the edge of the deep pit with his right hand and stabilized his falling trend.

"Are you all right?" Wang Lang asked downwards.

"It's okay, Lang, let go, the pit is not very deep, you climb up and get me out." Jian Ya said.

Stretching his neck and looking down, Wang Lang saw that Jianya was less than half a meter away from the bottom of the pit. He couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Okay, be careful, I'll let you go."

After Jian Ya responded, Wang Lang let go of his hand, and Jian Ya fell firmly to the bottom of the pit.

Huo and Wuyun also caught up at this time, and after they pulled Wang Lang up together, Wuyun chopped some vines nearby and threw them into the pit.

Jian Ya grabbed the rope that was handed down, and the three of them worked together to pull Jian Ya up.

After Jianya came up, he looked at the big pit that he just fell into with lingering fear. Although the pit was not very deep, if he fell unprepared, he would definitely break his leg. In this day and age, such a result is not much better than death .

Jian Ya expressed his gratitude to Wang Lang, and Wang Lang patted Jian Ya on the shoulder to signal him not to care.

"What do you think of this place?" Wang Lang asked.

Jian Ya looked at the deep pit that almost killed him, and said, "What use can this place be?"

Huo at the side understood what Wang Lang meant, and said, "Lang, do you mean to turn this place into a trap? If people can fall, animals can also fall, right?"

Wang Lang smiled and said: "That's right, you can see that the side of the pit is full of shrubs, and if you don't pay attention, it will fall down. If we use branches to camouflage the hole, the prey will be more difficult to detect. Isn't this a trap?"

After listening to Wang Lang's explanation, Jian Ya and Wu Yun also reacted, and Wu Yun said: "In this case, we can dig some such pits in other places. Wouldn't it be more traps?"

Wang Lang shook his head and said, "It's not that easy. It's almost impossible to dig such a big hole with our current tools."

Wu Yun sighed, a little regretful in his heart, he was indeed a little whimsical, it was not easy to dig those small pits for burying tree stumps in the tribe, let alone such a big pit.

"It's good to have this natural trap. There are many animals living in this bush. This trap will definitely catch us a lot of prey." Wang Lang inspired the three people who were somewhat lost.

The three of them nodded, and under Wang Lang's instructions, they found some branches to hang over the entrance of the cave, and cut down many shrubs to cover it. After some camouflage, it was impossible to tell the difference between this place and the surrounding environment from the outside.

Wang Lang cut another two-meter-long branch and stuck it next to the trap as a mark to prevent other members of the tribe from falling down.

It was dusk when we returned to the tribe. When the tribe saw that Wang Lang and the others had returned empty-handed, they all knew that the hunt had failed, and everyone felt a little disappointed.

Looking at the faces of the crowd, Huo knew what they were thinking. As a warrior of the tribe, it was a very shameful thing not to catch the prey. In the past, Huo would feel ashamed of his incompetence, but today it is different. It is an unprecedented hunting method. Although the prey cannot be brought back immediately, in the long run, this method will definitely receive more goods than the traditional method.

Huo yelled at the crowd in dissatisfaction: "What are you all doing with your heads down, what do you know, Lang taught us a new way of hunting today, and there will be more and more food in the future."

Everyone subconsciously looked at Wang Lang.

Wang Lang nodded and said: "Huo is right, but this method will not yield much in the near future. During this period, we still have to hunt in the traditional way. The food stored in the tribe is enough for us to eat for a while. Now, don't worry too much."

With Wang Lang's proof, the clansmen felt relieved, since the leader said that there was no problem, then naturally there was nothing to worry about.

After dinner, Wu Yun tossed and turned and couldn't sleep. Thinking about the prey that could be found at his fingertips in the future, his mood was agitated. Looking back on the past, where the tribe moved from here to, they never stayed in one place for a long time. The wandering life made Wu Yun very tired. Wu Yun cherishes a stable life.

Wu Yun wondered why Lang knew so much. Could there really be gods? Although Wang Lang had said a lot about gods before, Wu Yun didn’t really believe in them. If there were gods, why didn’t they help us before? After so many clansmen died, Wu Yun couldn't tell whether it was gratitude or resentment for that.

Distraught, Wu Yun stood up and sat by the fire and looked at the rocks on the cliff. With the dancing of the firelight, there were some distorted shadows. He wanted the gods to know what was going on in his mind.

But how to communicate with the gods, Wu Yun was very distressed, staring at his own shadow with blank eyes.

Suddenly, Wu Yun had an idea in his mind, if he could leave the thoughts in his mind on the cliff like a shadow, then the gods should be able to see it.

Thinking that the dark cloud no longer felt drowsy, he became excited for a while. He quietly left the sleeping crowd, picked up some charcoal from the burnt fire, and came to the cliff, frowning and thinking carefully. Say something.
