Chapter 1544 Eat My Old Π Stick

Originally, I said I went to bed early, got up early and set off early, but last night because of the coyote attack, I was tossed for a long time, and Zhang Zian was tossed, and he was in a daze until it was almost dawn, and he felt like he had just closed his eyes. , was awakened by birdsong outside.

When we got out of the tent, it was already daylight.

In fact, the elves had already woken up, but he didn't get up, so they were happy to rest for a while.

The bonfire had already been extinguished, and even the embers were cold. He added firewood at about four o'clock in the morning, and estimated that it would last for two hours at most.

Femas suggested that it should be responsible for adding firewood. Anyway, it sleeps outside the tent, which is more convenient, but it does not have the flexible hands of humans. If it wants to add firewood, it can only add dead branches into the fire, which is easy to throw sparks. There is a certain degree of danger, so he decided to come by himself.

Seeing him come out, Femas yawned, and said without waiting for him to ask: "Everything is normal, the coyote has not come back. Besides, I thought about why the deer was able to detect the danger in advance yesterday."

"Oh why?"

Yesterday, when we chose this creek to camp, the head deer showed a visibly nervous look, as if it sensed some potential danger, but Femas didn't smell anything, and something happened at night. It has always been worried about this, even though Zhang Zian and the other elves went back to the tent and continued to sleep, it was still thinking about this matter, and it finally figured it out.

Femas led him to the creek.

The water level of this creek that was formed temporarily due to thunderstorms is significantly lower today than yesterday, and the flow rate and flow have weakened a lot. In about two or three days, the creek will turn into a mud ditch and finally dry up completely. Until the next thunderstorm comes and comes back to life again.

Femas explained: "Because the head deer drank the raw water from the stream, but I drank the water that you filtered, sterilized, boiled and cooled."

Zhang Zian seemed to understand, "You mean, the smell of the coyote is dissolved in the water, so the head deer tasted it?"

"It should be like this." Fei Max nodded.

That makes sense.

Zhang Zian raised his eyes and looked upstream of the creek.

Coyotes also have to drink water. After they drink water from upstream, the smell is carried downstream by the stream. When the head deer drinks water, it senses that there are coyotes upstream, so it is nervous, but there is no such smell in the cold white Kai that Femas drinks.

The head deer knows there are coyotes upriver,

But it can't be sure how far away it is. No one knows how long this stream is. As long as it is the direction in which the stream flows, it can be counted as upstream.

According to research by scientists, deer are not very afraid of coyotes. To be precise, deer have two reactions after smelling the smell of coyotes. Deer can panic, but if they just smell the normal male coyote or female coyote, the deer will not show obvious fear.

Obviously, it was the black wolfhound yesterday that made the deer react uneasy.

Zhang Zian held a compass in one hand and a mobile phone in the other. Through comparison, he found that the location of the light group seemed to be in the direction upstream of the creek. If he continued to move towards the light group, he might encounter coyotes, especially yesterday. The night group.

Of course, the flow of the creek is tortuous and changeable, and it may turn elsewhere after turning a few turns.

In any case, a living person cannot give way to a few animals, and even if he takes a detour, it may not be without trouble, because the badger is a smart and vengeful animal. There are many related videos on the Internet showing the character of the badger. Including a movie "God Is Crazy 2", because the male protagonist accidentally stepped on Pingtouge, he was almost chased by Pingtouge across the desert...

The badger suffered a huge loss yesterday, and after recovering from it, he might want to get revenge.

Zhang Zian said that it doesn't matter, it can come when it wants, anyway, there may be a black bear behind it, a few more coyotes and an American badger are no different, if there are too many lice, it will not bite, and if there are too many debts, it will not worry...

"Quack! Last night's road torch, do you have any extra? Give me one for fun!"

Richard jumped on his shoulder with pretended intimacy.

"Why do you want that thing?" Zhang Zian waved it aside, "Get up, don't delay me making breakfast."

"Quack! Your idiot's accuracy is too poor. Like last night, if you just threw the torch into the hole dug out by that stinky badger, nothing will happen? So, if there is another unexpected situation, Ben Uncle can turn into a bombing chicken, hold the torch and be responsible for dropping bombs, and guarantee that every shot will be accurate!" It shouted.

"If you dare to beep again, I'll remove the word 'boom'." He said contemptuously, "Look at how scared you were last night!"

Richard desperately tried to find reasons to justify himself, what kind of gentleman is poor...

After breakfast, it is not advisable to walk around immediately after eating a full stomach, as it is easy to get stomach problems, so Zhang Zian did not rush to start, but carried out the idea of ​​last night, found a branch with a suitable length, and used a knife to cut off the bark and branches and whittle it down to a straight stick, and use the rough red phosphorous from the road torch cap as sandpaper to smooth the burrs.

"Pi, this is for you."

He greeted π and waved the wooden stick in his hand again.

"Squeak?"

π was sitting on a branch looking at the giant tree in the distance, the blisters on its palm had disappeared, hearing his voice and looking at the stick, he couldn't help being confused.

"You were very brave last night, but the branch was uncomfortable to swing, right? So I cut this wooden stick for you, and I will rely on you to protect everyone in the future." Zhang Zian swung the wooden stick vigorously a few times, whistling.

"Squeak!"

π jumped off the tree three times and twice, ran over on hands and feet, happily took the stick, ran to the open space, and swung it a few times like him.

Zhang Zian's trekking pole was too long and too heavy for π, this wooden stick made him love it, the weight and length were very suitable for it to use.

Pi swung his stick for a while, and then carried the wooden stick on his shoulders. He paced around the camp with vigilance, looking around vigilantly, like a dedicated guard, and even Richard envied him.

Vladimir was anxiously waiting to get π a hat with a red star on his head when he returned home.

Seeing it playing happily, Zhang Zian secretly regretted why he didn't think of cutting a wooden stick for it to play with?

Every elf has its own strengths, as long as they are given a suitable stage to play, before last night, who would have thought that π would be so brave against coyotes?

Even the spotted owl helped out last night, hooting to warn of the presence of coyotes.

The only thing you can't count on is Richard.
