Chapter 868 Ambush Success
The newborn wildebeest is covered in amniotic fluid and is so thin that it seems to be just bones. Its limbs are as thin as bamboo poles and it cannot even stand steadily.
The wildebeest that had just given birth did not seem to have any discomfort. It turned around and licked the calf, licking the mucus clean. On the one hand, it was to clean the calf's body, and on the other hand, it was to replenish the body's nutrition and speed up recovery.
This is probably the point where humans are inferior to animals in the wilderness.
A very significant change trend in the process of human evolution is that the head is constantly getting bigger, while upright walking leads to a narrow pelvis.
Not to mention the choice of increasing revenue or reducing expenditure, this is the combination of the two, which makes humans the most difficult creatures to produce among all animals.
But for herbivores, they are at the relatively bottom of the food chain, and there is always a lack of carnivores in their living space.
The wild environment is very dangerous, and it is often necessary to forage for food, avoid enemies, etc. soon after giving birth.
In this case, if childbirth causes the mother great pain, prolonged weakness, or even a certain degree of physical trauma, it would be extremely dangerous.
The coveting of carnivores forces the young of herbivores to quickly acquire the ability to stand and run from birth. If they want to be able to move right after birth, they cannot do without the length of time they spend developing in the mother's body. Therefore, most herbivores have a gestation period of 7-13 months.
So compared to these animals, human babies are essentially "premature babies."
The mother also develops the ability to recover quickly through long-term natural selection.
But no matter how quickly he recovered and stood up, what lay before Bifang at this moment was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
One is a newly-born baby wildebeest, and the other is a large wildebeest that has not yet recovered its strength. Now he doesn't even need to ambush them, he can just rush up and be sure to catch these two guys.
Just as the audience in the live broadcast room showed.
[What a good opportunity]
[Fuck, why don’t you do this? ]
【Finally, I have some meat to eat! 】
With such a good opportunity, no one thought that Bifang would fail. Almost everyone imagined the scene of eating meat and couldn't wait to know from Fangshen what it tasted like to feed a wildebeest.
only……
Bifang glanced at Harley who was eager to try next to him, and a sudden idea came to his mind.
How about letting Harley try it too?
In fact, it is better to try and make more mistakes and accumulate experience than to teach too much.
Of course, there are differences between experience and experience.
Simply failing to catch up is experience, catching up but not killing it is also experience, and catching up but not killing it but not beating it is also experience.
Chasing small animals, medium animals, large animals, horned animals, and armored animals are all different.
If you just keep repeating the previous mistakes, you will not learn anything in essence. Only through complete practice can you accumulate truly valuable experience.
This time is different from the last time we caught an ostrich.
Not to mention the cubs, it should not be a big problem for Harley to catch up with the mother who just gave birth by relying on brute force.
Therefore, even if it fails, Harley can still learn more.
Bifang himself didn't have too many worries about teaching Harley how to hunt.
The qualities of cats are there, their claws, their sharp teeth, they will slowly learn to use these things, just let them come into contact with as many things as possible.
But Bifang doesn't plan to stop there. This time he plans to join forces with Harley.
It's time to change your goals.
Originally, he was planning to hunt pregnant Mt. Goby, but now he might as well leave these two targets to Harley and hunt other adult Mt. Goby himself.
It just so happened that Bifang didn't really want to do this job. From the perspective of human morality, it was not a good idea to specifically target vulnerable groups such as pregnant women.
Compared to picking up bargains, it is more suitable for me to go head-to-head.
Thinking of this, Bifang no longer restricted Harley's eagerness to try, but let it move with him and crawl towards the herd of wildebeests.
With branches and shrubs hanging all over his body, Bifang almost blended into the surrounding environment. Holding a spear in his hand, he quietly moved forward.
Harley next to him was no fool either. He imitated Bifang, retracted his limbs, and lay on the ground, moving little by little, like a spotted yellow worm wriggling in the grass, his little claws constantly pressing on the ground.
Forty meters…thirty meters.
As the distance gets closer, Bifang's breathing becomes deeper and faster. The rapid replacement of oxygen allows him to burst out with more powerful strength in a short period of time.
The tense atmosphere also affected Bifang's own emotions, causing this strong body to have some unknown reactions.
The heart was beating like a drum, the blood was rushing rapidly, and the mitochondria in countless cells were silently bursting into higher working efficiency, like a steam engine with coal added, with a raging flame burning.
Capturing such a large and numerous prey for the first time made Harley feel different emotions. His leopard eyes kept turning to stare at the wildebeests, while at the same time he closely followed the movements of Bifang, almost lagging behind by only one body length. From this point of view, it was already quite good.
Bifang opened his mouth, inhaled quickly and exhaled slowly. Even though his body was covered with mud and yellow soil, he did not look dirty, but instead added a sense of wildness.
The naked forearm muscles were exposed to the air, and one could almost see each muscle twisting and tightening, like steel cables twisted together, strong and powerful.
The cuffs of Bifang's clothes were rolled up high, close to his upper arms. On the one hand, it was for better movement, and on the other hand, direct contact with the air would allow him to feel the flow of air more directly.
A man's forearms are the sexiest part of his body.
This may be a bit absolute, but it is evident from the fact that this part is almost always ranked at the top in many voting lists.
Bifang's strong physique makes his overall image appear very stable and down-to-earth. Just standing there gives people a strong sense of security. His strong muscles make his forearms full of masculine charm, which adds points to the picture itself and firmly attracts the audience's attention.
Once again approaching, the distance has now exceeded thirty meters.
If it is a single creature, this distance is still very safe, but the other party is a group of creatures, with a 360-degree field of view, so you have to be careful.
For this reason, Bifang's movements became even slower.
Harley was a little impatient and made a humming sound in a low throat, but Bifang stopped, turned back and glared at him, then he calmed down and followed behind obediently, crawling forward.
The audience was so nervous when seeing this that they dared not breathe, as if their breathing would disrupt the tranquility of the scene.
The mucus on the cub's body had already been licked clean, and he slowly stood up and began to walk with the help of his mother.
Such a smooth birth also made the other wildebeests relax their vigilance. They scattered again and ate , without noticing the long grass swaying slightly not far away.
Time passed by minute by minute, and Bifang did not dare to delay too much. He kept the speed of approaching at a not too slow level to prevent the group of wildebeests from scattering and running to other places.
Fortunately, this place is close to the water source, and there are lush and long grasses nearby, which can better conceal the sight. When the small wildebeests can run around the herd, Bifang has shortened the distance to about 20 meters.
This distance was already quite close. Holding the spear in his hand, Bifang was quite confident that he could hit the target with one throw. He glanced at Harley behind him.
As if realizing something from Bifang's eyes, Harley leaned forward slightly, as if ready, and the muscles on his shoulder blades kept twitching.
Seeing this, Bifang no longer hesitated, and his body, which had been ready for action, suddenly bounced up from the ground like a loosened bowstring.
The Harley behind him started even faster, and raised its back almost at the moment when Bifang suddenly jumped up. It arrived first and split the grass like a yellow lightning.
Grass clippings were floating in the air, dancing around.
Such a loud noise naturally startled the wildebeests. Just seeing the size of the newcomers, this group of herbivores instinctively fled in all directions. The huge body of more than one meter long jumped out of the grass as if it had no inertia at all, and ran towards the distance, from static to dynamic, at an incredibly fast speed.
But no matter how fast they are, they are not as fast as Bifang and Liecheetah who have taken the lead!
As the yellow lightning struck, Bifang's whole body strength flowed through his waist and arms and was transferred to the spear. The whole person was like an extremely soft cowhide whip being swung, flexible and resilient. The moment the strength accumulated to the extreme, it was thrown from the hand that served as the whip tip.
With extremely amazing power, the spear instantly turned into a residual image and disappeared in Bifang's hand, cutting through the air, with a scream, and once again surpassed the chasing cheetah and flew towards the frightened wildebeest.
Ultimate muscle control, ultimate balance control, nerve reflexes, energy burst...
Long-term strengthening has already made Bifang's spear throwing accuracy reach an extremely terrifying level. Even from twenty meters away, he has enough confidence to hit the moving wildebeest!
Even without flint, a sharp wooden spear is still harder than flesh and blood. Due to its integrity, it even flies more steadily and accurately than an ordinary spear!
The flying spear was faster than any animal present, and it hit the largest wildebeest before it could jump out of the range of five meters!
With the dual blessing of speed and quality, the sharp wooden spear head was like a heated steel knife, cutting into the butter made of flesh and blood.
The audience's pupils contracted, unable to believe what was happening before their eyes.
The entire spear pierced into the oblique side of the wildebeest's back and then came out from the abdomen, crushing its internal organs and directly piercing through the two-hundred-pound giant beast!
Hot blood gushed out from the penetration hole, scaring all the other wildebeests.
The companion in the front was shot by the sudden attacking weapon, and the rest of the wildebeests that were originally fleeing in the same direction immediately changed direction and ran to other places, completely losing their minds.
There was a water source in front of it and Bifang behind it. The wildebeest, which had to make a right angle to escape, changed direction again, giving the pursuing Harley a chance!
The target changed direction twice in a hurry. If Harley couldn't catch up with it by chasing it in a straight line, it would be a disgrace to Bifang.
Harley did not disappoint Bifang. He witnessed the scene of the mother wildebeest giving birth with his own eyes, which left a deep impression on him. He ran straight towards the mother wildebeest that was giving birth.
With the right time, right place and right people, and a distance of twenty meters, the food was right in his mouth. Bifang couldn't expect Harley to lose like this.
As expected, Harley did not disappoint Bifang. With a few leaps, he jumped onto the body of the wildebeest, hooked its flesh with his claws, and held on to it tightly, and instinctively tried to bite the prey's throat.
These days, whenever Bifang deals with a mammal, he will demonstrate to Harley what "throat slitting and bleeding" is. After a few times, he cleverly understood the weakness of the animal and successfully used this technique the first time he hunted it.
Unfortunately, the bite was not successful the first time and was successfully avoided by the wildebeest.
However, after more than ten months, the wildebeest had lost a lot of nutrients in its body, so it was no longer able to run. Fear became a catalyst, and under the attack of the cheetah, it lost its balance and fell directly to the ground, successfully creating a good opportunity.
Seeing this, Harley rushed forward, opened his mouth, bit the wildebeest's neck and locked its trachea.
The heavy panting sounds coming from the mouth of the wildebeest, together with the cheetah's breathing, seemed to form a unique signal language.
Seeing this, Bifang quickly stepped forward, but did not choose to get closer. Instead, he stood a few meters away, watching Harley's movements and helping to prevent the prey from escaping.
I don’t know if it was because of too much physical exertion, but the prey lying on the ground was still struggling frantically. Several times, the cheetah had to be dragged up by Harley. The most dangerous time was when it even shook Harley off and crawled on the ground for several meters. Fortunately, Harley stood up again and bit its neck again.
This is another weakness of the cheetah. Its head is too small, and its mouth is not big either. Its muscles are not strong enough, and its bite force is not enough. It cannot bite off the neck and let the prey bleed in one breath. It can only kill its prey by suffocation, which is much less efficient. It often takes several minutes to kill the prey, which may cause many accidents.
Both sides were losing strength. Fortunately, fear would accelerate the loss of strength, as would bleeding. The wildebeest's struggles became weaker and weaker. After nearly five minutes, only its legs could twitch and it could no longer stand up.
Only then did the cheetah open its mouth, gasping for breath, and turned to look at Bifang, as if waiting for something.
Bifang was not stingy with his praise and walked up to touch Harley's head.
“Well done.”
The cheetah raised its head to embrace Bifang's palm.
At this moment, the audience seemed to have just reacted, causing the live broadcast room to be plunged into a wave of excitement.
