Back to the Three Kingdoms and become a python

"The crocodile was actually scared off by the rhino?" Lin Bei was really stunned. With the size of the crocodile, he shouldn't be afraid of the rhino. It is a land animal. Although crocodiles are amphibious, they are obviously much clumsier on land, so they retreated wisely. There is a lot of food by the river, so there is no need to pick hard bones to chew.

The river was quiet again. Lin Bei saw the birds flying back to the reeds, as if they landed on the rhinoceros. Lin Bei thought of a kind of bird, they should be rhinoceros.

This kind of bird feeds on the parasites on the rhinoceros and hardly flies away. If there is an enemy, the rhinoceros bird will fly up and scream, reminding the rhinoceros that it is equivalent to having a few more sentinels for the rhinoceros. The relationship is similar in the ocean, some small fish tend to attach to the big fish, let the big fish take them to other sea areas and then leave to look for food.

Afterwards, a herd of bison also came to the river. Compared with the herd of deer, this herd of bison was much wilder. They jumped into the water unscrupulously, making the river extremely muddy. The male rhino seemed to have never heard of it. They are tossing, and they all have the character "ox", so they have a high tolerance for each other.

Lin Bei saw the five crocodiles again, but then retreated immediately, because these bison are also extremely strong, and they are also of the hard-boned type, unless the crocodiles are very hungry, and the water here is enough to submerge the bison. Otherwise, the crocodile will not play bison's idea.

The bison is tossing around here, and no other creatures will dare to come for a while, so Lin Bei swims down, chasing the whereabouts of the five crocodiles, and goes into the water to have a look. The water of this river is surprisingly shallow and wide. The water is more than three feet deep but only one foot deep. Of course, there must be deep places and shallower places, but this kind of river section is really suitable for crocodiles to forage.

"It is estimated that this river will lead to the Mekong River." Thinking of this possibility, Lin Bei temporarily stopped and looked towards the Changshan Mountains. He estimated that the distance between them should be forty miles. Lay here, then change the car into a boat, and then enter the Mekong River. When you reach the Mekong River, you can go to other countries through this big river. However, the depth of the river is a problem. It is one foot deep and carries a little more cargo Ships have to run aground.

Chapter 196 Indigenous

There is no doubt that if Wanghai City wants to conduct business with other places, the most convenient way must be the waterway, which includes sea navigation and river navigation.

Sea navigation is still a little difficult for the time being. At most, you can only swim along the coastline. If you want to cross the ocean, you need a ship with certain conditions, but this era does not have such conditions, so it is best to use the rivers on the river.

Now Lin Bei is thinking about the possibility of using the river in front of him. This river is not far from the Changshan Mountains, only forty miles away. Although there are many beasts like rhinos in the forest, as long as the road is paved, The beasts naturally had to retreat, the key is that the river is too shallow and the crocodiles in the river.

In this tropical forest, with the arrival of the rainy season, the rain will increase, and rivers will easily form, but once the rainy season passes, the river will dry up. Lin Bei believes that this river is probably a river in this rainy season. When the time came to repair the road, but the river dried up, the joke would really be a big one. This was the first point Lin Bei considered.

The second point is the crocodiles in the river. To be honest, Lin Bei was quite surprised that these crocodiles could reach a length of eight meters. How long is a mid-wing boat?It was only about ten meters long. Lin Bei was really worried about such a ship facing such a huge crocodile. It was too easy to be knocked over. In short, it was too dangerous.

In addition, Lin Bei still has deeper worries. Are there other beasts besides crocodiles in the river?Will these beasts attack humans or ships?This worry is not superfluous at all. Judging from Lin Bei's experience in this era, because there are few people in the poor mountains and bad waters, the size of the beasts that can grow up is larger than what Lin Bei saw in his previous life. This is of course because no one can hunt and kill them. The reason for them is also because of the good environment of this era, which is suitable for the growth of these beasts.In this environment, humans are at a disadvantage.

A dangerous river, and it may be a river in the rainy season, Lin Bei can't help but think about it comprehensively, and now he has to involve more than [-] people in Wanghai City for a single decision.

"I saw quite a few reflections on the long mountain just now, so there should be quite a few rivers and lakes. Let's take a look around and try to find a suitable river, even if it's farther away."

Thinking of this, Lin Bei no longer went down the river, but walked towards the second reflective place according to his memory.

Then Lin Bei saw rhinos again, this time there were three rhinos, two big ones and one small one. The rhinoceros and birds were also startled by Lin Bei's noise, but this time the male rhinos were very friendly.Instead of attacking Lin Bei, he snorted a few times and walked away slowly with his wife and children.

"It seems that there should be a lot of rhinos here, so we can see them again after a short walk."

Later, Lin Bei arrived at the second reflection point, which turned out to be a large swamp. The increase in rainfall caused some low-lying places in the forest to accumulate water, and the water soaked the ground.A large swamp was formed, and Lin Bei also saw herds of rhinos and bison here.They wallow in muddy water, which both cools them down and hardens their surface with the mud to defend against enemies.

Rhinos are second only to elephants in size and weight, and there are almost no natural enemies on land, unless they themselves are injured or old, and the bison apparently live well in this forest.Except for tigers and wolves who can occasionally kill them, they have no serious opponents, so they are numerous.

After leaving the swamp, Lin Bei went forward again, and when he reached the third reflection point, he found that it was a small river.The river was smaller than the first one I saw. The river was turbid, with dead branches and leaves floating. With the arrival of Lin Bei, several pythons got out of the river and ran away. There were also bison and rhinos here, but only No elephants were seen.

"This shouldn't be true. There are so many rhinos but no elephants? It's unscientific."

If you want to say where there are the most elephants in Asia, there is no doubt that Laos and Thailand are the two countries that regard elephants as national treasures. Thailand even has an elephant festival. Later generations often see Thais catching wild elephants. According to reports, there should only be more elephant herds in this era. Lin Bei didn't see the elephant herds, so he probably didn't go anywhere.

"If the elephant herd is too far away from the Changshan Mountains, it will be difficult to catch. One hundred miles is almost the limit."

According to this range, Lin Bei ran quickly, but after a circle, he still did not find any trace of the elephant, and finally had no choice but to stop.

"How about catching rhinos?" Looking at the rhinos at the edge of the swamp, an idea flashed through Lin Bei's mind, and then he carefully analyzed the possibility.

Compared with elephants, the back of rhinos is much narrower. In addition, rhinos are more irritable than elephants. If you use rhinos to go to the battlefield, they should be stronger than elephant soldiers. But taming is a difficult problem. I have only heard of taming elephants in ancient times. , but rarely heard of someone taming a rhino.

"Oh, I remembered. I remember that the animal world once said that it seems that the eyesight of rhinos is actually not good. It is a bit like myopia. They can't see things in the distance. It is probably because of this reason that they are so short-sighted. No one tamed a rhino."

Wei Wei felt a little regretful, but Lin Bei could only give up his idea of ​​taming the rhino.

Lin Bei didn't look back at Haicheng that night. He climbed a big tree and stayed up all night.

On the second day, Lin Bei, who was still full of energy, followed the idea he came up with last night, taking the Changshan Mountains as a line, and he searched along this line at the angle of a parallel line, from south to north, as long as the range does not exceed [-] You can.

After running like this for two hours, Lin Bei probably ran out of the range of Rinan County. Lin Bei heard the sound of water, and he saw a big river.

This big river is very wide, about six feet wide, and the water is extremely deep. Lin Bei got into the river and looked at the bottom of the river. The stones at the bottom of the river are very smooth, and there are obviously many holes. Lin Bei even found it in the holes. A few turtles, so Lin Bei was sure that this river was not a rainy season river, and it was not the kind that would dry up after the rainy season ended.

After discovering this, Lin Bei was immediately refreshed. This kind of big river has a beginning and a flow direction. If it is the most ideal situation to flow to the Mekong River, even if it does not flow to the Mekong River in the end, it will definitely gather water from other rivers. It's not far from the sea, so the chances of it ending up in the ocean are not small.

Along the way, Lin Bei was going to investigate the source of the river. It would be best if the source was close to the Changshan Mountains.

The river is quite gentle, and the reeds on the banks are extremely dense. This is also a paradise for bison.In addition, Lin Bei also found traces of the rhinoceros. After crawling forward for a while, a large greenery appeared in front of Lin Bei, and a large lotus leaf was in front of him.

These lotus leaves cover the entire river section, and there are protruding thorns on the surface of the lotus leaves.Like the thorny one, this is the chicken head lotus, which belongs to a wild lotus species. Their lotus pods are also different from other lotus pods. They are purple in color and have needle-shaped thorns on the surface.

Going ashore, the range of the chicken head lotus is astonishingly large, stretching for several kilometers, and when it is about to go out of the range of the chicken head lotus.Lin Bei's eyes suddenly stopped.

The chicken head lotus had already begun to bloom. At this time, Lin Bei saw a bud on the bank of the river, which was obviously broken off from the lotus stem. This is not something a beast can do.

"Is there anyone?" Lin Bei stretched out the snake letter to detect the surrounding movement and catch the breath in the air, but in the end he didn't notice it. After all, the various smells in the forest are too complicated.Even if someone passes by, the breath will soon blend into the air.Hard to notice.

Climbing in front of the flower bud, Lin Bei observed the surroundings. There were obvious traces of trampling on the grass. After careful identification, it should be that someone came to the river to drink water, and then picked the flower bud off by the way.

"There are traces of people." Lin Bei straightened his body: "Is it Han people or barbarians? Or the remnants of Rinan and Jiuzhen counties? Or the local aborigines. The possibility of aborigines is relatively high."

The aborigines here refer to the ancestors of the three countries of modern Burma, Thailand and Vietnam. In this era, apart from the Han Dynasty, the production and technological level of these three countries were obviously very low. Among them, Vietnam was still the territory of the Han Dynasty at this time, and the other two countries might also be There is no concept of country.It exists in the form of tribes and ethnic groups. If it exists in this form, the water source is obviously indispensable, and they are likely to be near this river.

Thinking of this, Lin Bei did not hesitate too much, and followed the trail, preparing to find these natives.

Following these traces, Lin Bei can almost see how many of them there are, there should be five of them, and they are very careful, walking next to bushes or under trees, and will not pass by rocks, because The rocks are the place with the most snakes. These five people obviously have rich experience in wild survival. Of course, this is also normal, after all, they have lived here all the time.

After tracking for about an hour, Lin Bei stopped. Those people were obviously returning home, and Lin Bei was outside their home at this time.

It’s a bit of a stretch to say it’s a home, it’s better to say it’s a grove. Some animal skins and reeds are hung around the groves to block the view. Here, Lin Bei didn't even see ironware, so he was extremely backward.

The village is divided into several buildings that look like houses. There are more than 30 people inside. These people are all dark and very short. The tallest one is not 1.6 meters five, and the rest are about 1.4 meters to 1.5 meters. They are also dressed abnormally. No matter men or women, they only wear something around the lower body, some are animal skins, some are leaves, but the upper body is naked, women also expose their breasts, but their faces, necks and arms I don't know what color was used to paint it, it was painted colorfully, and there was a man who looked relatively strong and obviously had a high status. Around his neck was a necklace made of animal teeth.

At this time, several people were skinning the boar, and others were lighting a fire, obviously preparing to eat the food they had just hunted. They talked from time to time, but Lin Bei didn't understand a single word.

"These guys are primitive people..." Lin Bei sighed. He saw those skinned guys cut off the boar's throat, put their mouths together, and drank the blood one by one. In Lin Bei's opinion, It was an extremely disgusting thing, but other people seemed to be envious of those people drinking blood. Lin Bei could even hear the gurgling sound of swallowing saliva from someone's throat...

Can't bear to look at it, Lin Bei really can't bear to look at it, quietly walked around this simple village, Lin Bei saw that there was actually a small wooden boat by the river behind, this small wooden boat used big trees to hold the tree Other than that, Lin Bei really didn't find anything of value.

"These aborigines are still living a half-naked life, so backward..."

ps:...

Chapter 197 Yizhou Wang Family

These natives roasted wild boars on the fire. From this point of view, they are not drinking blood. In addition, Lin Bei also saw the guy who looked like a leader wearing a necklace of animal teeth rummaging through a pile of animal skins. Finally, I found a small bag.

"This is a sack of sackcloth?" Lin Bei was a little surprised, thinking that these natives also knew how to make sackcloth, but since they could make sackcloth, why didn't they get some clothes for themselves? Lin Bei didn't understand.

An aborigine fetched water with a stone bowl nearby. The leader opened the sack and dug in it. The sharp-eyed Lin Bei saw that he finally took out a few yellow-black crystals and threw them into the stone bowl.

"That was salt just now, right?" Seeing the leader stir the stone bowl with his fingers a few times, and finally put his fingers in his mouth, Lin Bei was sure that it was definitely salt, and Lin Bei thought for a moment.
