Lamb has been a delicacy since ancient times, and it is also Mufeng's favorite.
So he naturally took wild sheep as his first animal to tame.
But as Mingguang said, the wild goat runs so fast in the jungle that few can catch up with it.
Wild sheep are not only fast, but also very cunning, appearing in the jungle between human tribes and large carnivorous beasts. Some wild sheep appeared less than ten miles away from the Jiang clan.
According to his memory, Mu Feng remembered that there were quite a few wild sheep near the tribe, and there were more than 20 wild sheep in a small-scale herd, which completely met his standard of "trying hands".
In addition to salt, he asked Mingguang to prepare animal tendons and rattan.
The animal tendons were twisted into animal tendon ropes by him, and he kept them for tying sheep.
As for rattan, it is used to weave nets.
Mufeng knew how to weave nets before. He had studied history in archaeology before and was very familiar with the appearance and weaving of fishing nets.
Under the special emphasis of Mufeng, the rattan is soft and flexible.
Under his "guidance", the people of the tribe soon learned to weave rattan nets from rattan.
It's just that the net woven by rattan is not as practical as the net woven by rope and twine.
Fortunately, Mufeng does not use it to fish, but to make traps.
After doing this, Mu Feng asked Mingguang about the wild sheep's haunting habits, and decided to set off into the woods tomorrow morning before dawn, targeting a place where about thirty wild sheep haunted.
The next day before dawn, Li Hu appeared in the cave and woke Mu Feng.
With the previous fishing experience, now Mu Feng wants to go out, and no one can stop him.
More than 50 young and strong people from the entire tribe were dispatched. Almost everyone carried a skin bag, and the skin bag was filled with salt water.
Except for the salt water, everyone carried rattan nets, bone knives, bamboo spears, and animal tendon ropes.
The most puzzling thing is that Mu Feng asked people to bring the two shovels with them.
"What is the big chief planning to do?" Lihu asked Mingguang in a low voice, "I still carry a skin bag for hunting, and there is still water in the skin bag?"
"I don't know either!" Mingguang shook his head, "Now that the gold utensils are also brought, won't we have to dig a well again?"
"Dig a well?" Lihu frowned, "Can you hunt by digging a well?"
Mu Feng walked not far behind the two of them. After hearing this, he shook his head and smiled, without explaining, and sighed in his heart: "The cognitive level of people in primitive society is really worrying!"
The group quickly came to the place Mingguang said.
It was still dark, and Mu Feng looked around with a torch. The surrounding grass and bushes had clear teeth marks on the leaves, which were obviously eaten by herbivores.
He looked left and right again, chose a place with relatively lush vegetation and few teeth marks and stood still, and said, "This is it!"
The people around came together.
"Mu Feng, what should I do?"
Mu Feng reached out and picked up a bamboo gun, drew a circle seven or eight meters long and two meters wide on the ground, and said, "Now, everyone quickly dig up the soil in this circle, and throw the soil farther away. place!"
"Ah?" Li Hu was surprised, "We are going to dig such a big well here?"
Mu Feng shook his head: "
No, it doesn't need to be that deep, as long as it's about your height! "
He originally wanted to say more than one meter deep, but he was not sure about the bouncing of the wild sheep. For the sake of safety, he had to say a little more.
"What's the use of this?" Lihu looked puzzled.
Mu Feng looked at the sky, waved his hand and said, "Now is not the time to explain, dig the hole first, and you will find out later!"
"Yes!" Lihu hurriedly greeted these people to dig soil.
Two shovels and more than 50 bone knives dug the hole in Mufenghua in almost an hour.
After doing this, Lihu looked at Mu Feng again: "Mu Feng, what are you doing now?"
"Now cut a few slender branches, as long as they can cross the pit! Then put the rattan net on it, hurry up!"
So Lihu, Mingguang and a few young men hurriedly chopped branches and placed them on the pit, and then spread the rattan according to Mufeng's requirements.
After doing all this, everyone still didn't understand what Mu Feng wanted to do, so they all looked at him.
Mu Feng sighed in his heart, and could only say: "Now, everyone will cut the grass nearby, put it on the rattan net, and cover the rattan net until the net can't be seen!"
"Remember, spread evenly!"
It was also that everyone acted in unison, and soon finished according to Mu Feng's requirements.
More than 50 people all looked at Mu Feng again.
Mu Feng was very speechless, so he could only say: "Now, remove as much soil as possible around the pit, and then pull the grass to cover it, it is best not to see the soil!"
The crowd did the same.
A grass-laying trap from the earth's modern people is completed!
In the end, Mu Feng didn't wait for everyone to look at him, he picked up the leather bag and opened his mouth, and threw it towards the grass on the trap.
"Ah, Mu Feng, what are you doing?" Li Hu couldn't help exclaiming.
Mu Feng still didn't explain too much, just instructed: "Ten more people, and each of them will sprinkle salt water on the grass!"
After doing this, Mu Feng picked up another leather bag, found one direction and sprinkled no less than ten meters of water on the grass leaves.
At the same time, he let Lihu and Mingguang also
They each sprinkled ten meters of salt water on the grass.
In this way, there are three invisible grasses on the lines that are sprinkled with salt water, and finally point to the ground is the trap in front of them.
Mu Feng clapped his hands, nodded with satisfaction, and motioned everyone to follow him and leave quickly.
So far, the trap designed by Mu Feng for wild sheep has been successfully set up, and his domestication plan has officially started!
