275. Finally see the beast (4/10)
The northern Crown Diao tribe was once a nomadic tribe on the grassland, but now it has become a wandering tribe. They will follow the herd of bison and wildebeests on the grassland, and will also go to the edge of the city for a while, so these black people speak well in English.
They have dealt with people in the city and know very well how complicated the routines of people in the city are, so even though Lao Yang said several times that he didn't know how to tame zebras, they still didn't believe it:
You two zebras were honestly under your crotch, and then told me that I didn’t know how to tame them? Although we haven’t studied much, it’s not easy to cheat!
Yang Shubao thought that the black people went directly to the river and lake to catch shrimps and crabs, but they did not. They braved the scorching sun and walked towards the riverside. The black people rushed towards a forest of acacia. After entering, they found a shade of trees and lay down to rest.
Some people took a kettle to fetch water. They poured water from the river regardless of whether it was clean or not. They filled the pot and then lie down and drank it directly. They were very heroic.
Yang Shubao looked upstream, and several oxen were walking close to the river. Their throes were all solved in the river. The natives were drinking their feces. Even if the oxen did not throes, they had to drink their bath water.
Lao Yang is particular about people and cannot stand this situation. He only drinks Scarlett Johnson's bath water.
He thought that the natives were tired and wanted to take a break, but he was exposed to the sun and couldn't stand it all the way, so he also went to find a shade to rest, while John took two zebras to drink water.
But the natives not only rest here, they spread their clothes and lay down to sleep.
Yang Shubao went to ask Wengjiwa: "What are you doing?"
Ongiva yawned and said, "Sleep."
Uncle Yang looked up at the sun and asked suspiciously: "Sleep? Isn't it morning? What are you sleeping? Aren't you going to catch ghost shrimps and ghost crabs?"
Wengjiwa smiled and shook his head repeatedly: "No, no, no, of course we have to catch ghost shrimps and ghost crabs. It's not now. They are easy to find at night. We have to go to bed first and wait until the night before taking action."
“Can’t find it now?”
Wengjiwa shook his head again: "I can't find it. To catch ghost crabs, you need ghost shrimps. Ghost crabs like to eat ghost shrimps, but ghost shrimps cannot be seen during the day and can only be seen at night, so they are called ghost shrimps."
When Yang Shubao heard this, he was no longer interested and he would not stay with these people at night. If the natives had bad intentions to attack him, it would be difficult to be prepared for that night.
Seeing that he was about to leave, Ongiva asked disappointedly: "Don't you like eating ghost shrimps and ghost crabs? It's delicious."
Yang Shubao explained: "I still have something to do during the day, so I can't sleep here for a whole day."
Ongiva was happy again: "Then come back tonight, we'll wait here."
This is the entrance to the Taiba River to Lake Grand Saint Lucia. Last time Lao Yang came with the old hero, he was familiar with the road.
But he didn't want to come out to take risks at night, so he declined, "Let's talk about it then. I don't think I'll come. I'll go to bed early at night."
Onjiwa immediately advised him, "Then you go to bed now, sleep now."
Uncle Yang waved his hand and said, "I can't sleep during the day."
Ongiva asked him again, "So can you tell us how to domesticate zebras? We are willing to give you some ghost shrimps and ghost crabs, okay?"
Uncle Yang was speechless.
These natives were very difficult to deal with. They were very unwilling to accept the method of domesticating zebras without getting the method of domesticating zebras and wanted to leave him to continue asking.
There was no way, Yang Shubao could only take the opportunity to leave by taking the zebra to drink water as a reason.
This is a small episode of his trip. After leaving the natives of the Cangyu tribe in the Northland, he rode on zebras and walked along the river, trying hard to find the herd of elephants.
He is not very confident about whether he can find the last elephant herd. This kind of monster will continue to migrate in order to feed, and it will travel an average of 16,000 kilometers a year.
What is the concept of a trip of 16,000 kilometers a year? On average, it takes nearly 50 kilometers a day, but even if you walk so many roads, they are still as fat as they are. From this we can see that you have to eat less to lose weight. You can’t lose weight by walking alone.
The migration route of elephant herds is led by older females. They will choose migration routes with water based on their experience, and often have to pass through streams, lakes, swamps, etc. During this period, their life is like a very patient trip to seek food.
Fortunately, both Tail River and Lake Lucia are important habitats for elephant herds. The elephant herd he encountered last time should have left, but other elephant herds appeared near the river.
After two zebras traveled north for more than ten kilometers, an elephant herd that was larger than the last time appeared.
This group of elephants consists of more than twenty large African elephants, with four small elephants inside, most of the others are strong female elephants, and there is a stronger large male elephant walking around not far away.
The grand elephant should want to enter the elephant group, but the elephant group refused to accept it. Whenever it approached, a female elephant would raise its nose and make a loud croaking sound.
The elephant group is a matriarchal society, commanded by the elder sister. The male elephants are gentle in nature. They can drive them away with just a shout of their elder sister. They will not rub their faces in a silly way, nor will they relied on their strong bodies to confront their elder sister's head.
When John saw elephants for the first time, he saw these super giant beasts that were often three meters high and six or seven meters long. His face was irresistible and shocked: "What a great beast, it's simply Komodo beast."
Uncle Yang jumped off the horse's back and walked towards the elephant group.
His affinity for animals is now no less than that of the monster elves. As he approached the elephant, an elephant felt his breath and took the initiative to greet him. One of the little elephants was sucking water with his nose and trying to spray him.
This is a way for elephant groups to express their friendship. They use their noses to suck mud and water to spray them with each other in order to protect themselves. If an elephant is excluded by elephant groups, it is manifested that everyone will not spray mud and water for it.
There is no mud around, and the little elephant is sucking river water, so Lao Yang did not avoid it, but covered his face and turned his back to the little elephant to bear it: He cannot face the little elephant, otherwise the little elephant would spray water on his face, what is this?
Xiaoxiang was quite arrogant and walked around and squirted his face. Old Yang bravely raised his head: Shameless, come on.
A powerful water column hits the head!
The weather was hot, and it was comfortable to be sprayed by the river. After being sprayed, Lao Yang went to find the head of the elephant group. When the elephant saw him coming, he lowered his head and swept his nose.
Seeing this, Lao Yang sat up directly.
The African grassland elephant is the largest animal on land. The adult elephant has a strong nose and can easily lift a person.
Lao Yang sat on its nose and touched its rough skin, then pointed to the top of its head and said, "Crank me up."
Just like the words of the Warcraft Elves, the animals could understand what he meant. The elephant slowly put away its nose and raised it to its ears. Yang Shubao grabbed its ears like a wall and turned it up with force.
