After the men and women who collected wild vegetables and fished and hunted, the yard slowly became quiet.

Xu Chen and two men of tool sat in the yard, and continued to compile yesterday's bird-catching artifact with quick hands and feet.

Two hours passed in a flash, and he slowly woven a large vine basket with a diameter of three feet.

The shape is like a bamboo dustpan commonly used in rural areas.

The rattans are very sparsely woven, like fishing nets, all with holes the size of fists.

The two tool men saw Xu Chen getting such a strange thing, and thought he was going to take it for fishing, so they didn't care.

Xu Chen didn't explain either. After finishing it, he found a two-foot-long short stick, tied a slender rope in the middle, woven the vine basket with a short stick and placed it in the yard, then pulled the rope from a distance, and the vine basket fell down and buckled it on the ground.

Ness!

Xu Chen snapped his fingers, and satisfiedly put away the vine basket and short stick rope, and then greeted Gu He to work.

"Gaha?"

Gu Heju threw away his hoe and ran over sweating profusely. He looked at the big vine basket full of holes in Xu Chen's hand for no reason.

"Catch birds, go!"

Xu Chen was too lazy to explain and turned around and left.

Hearing is false and seeing is true. For this group of savages with low understanding and almost zero imagination, he doesn't like to explain many things now because he can't explain clearly.

Seeing Xu Chen and the other two preparing to go out, a group of children also screamed and wanted to follow him, but Xu Chen drove them back.

Bird catching is different from fishing, because the speed and IQ of birds are much higher than that of fish. When he was a child, he had the experience of catching sparrows with a dustpan. Although he had succeeded, the success rate was not high. As long as there was a slight movement or a slight slower one second, it would fail.

The fewer people in this way, the better.

Gu Heju can still help, but if a group of children follow him, I'm afraid that the whole day will be in vain.

The clear river flows.

The flowers and plants on both sides are flourishing and lush.

The mountains are full of flowers.

Flocks of water birds frolic and forage in the morning sun.

On the clear and vast blue sky, several goshawks were hovering, and sometimes diving down, scattering countless birds.

In the direction of the valley downstream of the river beach, you can see a group of wild horses and many herbivores looking for food leisurely on the river beach.

Apart from a thatched courtyard hidden among flowers, plants and green trees, the entire valley can only see white smoke rising from the kiln factory.

The sky is high and the earth is vast, and the mountains and rivers are like picturesque. They are still in a primitive look, and there is no trace of the third artificial building.

Such a beautiful scenery is refreshing.

However, after getting used to watching every day, Xu Chen now doesn’t feel much fresh.

Compared to beautiful scenery, food and survival are more important.

A group of women scattered near the Wild Wolf Valley to pick various tender wild vegetables.

Through the lush grass and trees, you can only hear the sound of them communicating and laughing.

Xu Chen brought Gu Heju, who was full of confusion, came to the river beach near the river beach. After a brief observation, he chose a small river bay where there were many water birds on weekdays.

The water flows here are relatively gentle, and the water plants on the shore grow very high. The reeds that start to bolt have exceeded the top of people's heads. On weekdays, a large number of wild birds are foraging here for food.

After choosing a location, you will go offline.

First, put the fresh fish raised in the fish basket yesterday with very tough weeds and tied them to the waterweed, then pull a few handfuls of weeds to stitch them on the vine basket to disguise, and then support the vine basket with a short stick.

Although Gu Heju was very serious about Xu Chen's various arrangements, he was still in a state of confusion.

They know how to catch fish, but what the hell is birding?

It’s OK that birds can fly with wings!

However, Xu Chen did not explain, and the two of them could only continue to be dull tools.

Xu Chen put down the long rope and the three of them hid in the grass more than ten meters away.

"Little...be careful!"

Gu Heju, who was already very scared of the grass, watched the surroundings nervously with a stick, and kept poking around in the surrounding grass.

Although Xu Chen's face turned a little dark, he did not stop the two of them, because he was still very scared, so it would be better to be careful in everything.

He has recently figured out the origin of the Ba tribe's name, which is indeed related to the poisonous snake with green patterns.

When Mother Ba's mother first moved here with more than a dozen tribesmen to settle down, there were a lot of poisonous snakes in this valley, and three people were bitten to death by poisonous snakes.

At that time, the tribe members were very scared, and most people wanted to live with the Wu tribe, but Moba was unwilling to do so. After taking the tribe members for two years to kill hundreds of poisonous snakes in the valley, they finally obtained a relatively safe living space.

In order to allow his tribe members to survive tenaciously, the first generation of Mother Ba used the name of the poisonous snake as the name of his family. This is the origin of the Ba tribe.

In fact, in this vast area, poisonous snakes are everywhere.

This kind of poisonous snake is the most venomous one, and it will undoubtedly die after being bitten. The origin of its name is that this kind of poisonous snake will make bar sounds before discovering its prey or attacking.

This is also the reason why Xu Chen heard a whisper when he picked up wild duck eggs that day.

If you are an adult who is familiar with Bashe, your first reaction when you hear this sound is to be alert to defense or even escape immediately.

But Xu Chen didn't know, and Gu and Ju didn't hear it at all. When the two saw it, it was too late. The poisonous snake had already launched an attack.

It is said that one is afraid of a well rope after being bitten by a snake for ten years.

What's more, it's a vicious snake that is almost certain to die.

Therefore, no matter how much caution is, it is not an exaggeration.

However, after such a rumbling noise, there were many water birds near the river bay and wild birds hiding in the grass all fluttered without a trace.

Bird catching requires more patience than fishing and more control over the timing.

The three of them lurked quietly in the dense grass, looking at the designed trap through the weeds. It took half an hour before sparse water birds began to fall into the river berth for food.

Because of the slow flow level in this river beside, there are many small fish and shrimps and are easier to catch. It is the closest place to the courtyard where water birds gather the most.

However, those who started to fall were some long-legged white cranes.

This kind of bird has long legs and long necks, which looks quite tall. In fact, it has no meat and small eggs, so it is not the target of Xu Chen's capture.

Therefore, these birds fell down one by one, and Xu Chen felt sweat on his forehead because the little fish they tied to the shallow were so conspicuous.

Sure enough, not long after, several cranes discovered the small fish under the trap, slowly surrounded them and began to observe and test them.

After a few tests, it seemed that there was no danger, a crane quickly poked in and picked up a small fish and swallowed it.

However, the fish was tied to the aquatic grass with weeds. After swallowing it, it seemed to be stuck in the throat and felt uncomfortable. It was soon spit out again. Then several cranes snatched up and the weeds were torn off. The fish was finally eaten by a white crane in one bite.

After eating the fish, more cranes flew over and began to surround the vine basket, stretching their long necks in to peck at the small fish. Xu Chen was about to throw a stone out to drive it away, but unexpectedly, the wooden stick was suddenly knocked down by a group of cranes. The vine basket was instantly locked down. Although not holding one, the cranes were frightened and most of them flew away instantly.

Xu Chen went to the river with a depressed face and set up the vine basket again.

Several small fish below have been eaten. If there are cranes coming to make trouble, I am afraid that this plan will not be successful.

Next, I continue to wait.

After more than ten minutes, water birds fell into the river berth one after another. This time, not only were there long-legged cranes, but also several wild ducks, including the most common kind of mallard duck, and a black and gray red-necked wild duck.

After the group of wild ducks arrived, they clamored and arched around the water plants. The scene suddenly became lively, and Xu Chen's heart also became excited and nervous. He held the rope with both hands and looked at the group of wild ducks seriously, hoping that they could get into the trap soon.

However, it was obvious that his protagonist's halo was not very effective. Soon, several long-legged cranes discovered the small fish under the trap, so they slowly came up to watch and then scrambled to eat.

This time I didn’t touch the wooden stick, and all the vine baskets were not locked down.

But all the fish tied below were stolen.

It seemed that the fish yield was relatively large in this strange place. A group of cranes were reluctant to leave, and they all circled around the trap. There was even a crane jumping onto a vine basket and flapping its wings to prepare to come to a white crane to shine its wings to summon more companions to wait for the rabbit. As a result, the vine basket was trampled over and a white crane with a ghost head and mind were buckled into the situation.

The sudden fright caused the birds to explode in an instant, and all the thunderbolts flew away again. A few ducks and other water birds were all frightened and flew away in a fright. In the blink of an eye, the river bay became empty again.
