Chapter 87 (1/2)
There was a light rain in the sky.
At the foot of the mountain.
Because it has been raining heavily since yesterday afternoon. After a night, the water on the ground is much deeper.
Many of them stood in the water with their legs wrapped in animal skins and holding spears. Their arms were raised high, and then their spears thrust into the water.
After repeatedly stabbing in the water twice, when the spear was raised, there was a big fish with its tail swinging, sharp teeth showing and struggling hard.
So sharp, so dense teeth Is it a piranha?
Ye Xi looked into the water.
There are many strange fish with sharp teeth in their ankles.
These piranhas are grayish gray, about the size of an adult's arm, and swim about in the water. They seem to be very powerful, and when they flick their tails, they churn up a splash of water.
Some piranhas open their sharp teeth and surround the people's feet, tearing and splashing at their calves.
Fortunately, the hide was thick and didn't bite.
Among the people standing in the water to insert fish, there are actually a few brave women, who are not afraid of being bitten by piranhas and bravely participate in the hunting.
The chief and Putai did not go into the water, but stood on the shore watching them.
Sensing the sound of footsteps, they turned their heads and saw Ye Xi and them.
Pu Tai said with a smile: ”finally wake up?”
The voice is joking.
Cone and ye Xi are thick skinned people, smell speech facial expression have no change.
The chief said with a smile: ”Ye Xi is still growing. I can sleep when I am as old as he is.”
Pu Tai ran against the cone and said in a loud voice: ”Ye Xi was awake late because he was growing up. How about you? You are just lazy!”
Cone is not willing to: ”I am also growing body, I am not full of 20!”
”You've got a partner, and so on!” Butai laughed and shook his head.
The chief picked up two spears from the ground next to him. ”Take them. They are for you.”
Ye Xi took over the spear. The whole body of the spear was made of wood, but the spear head was very sharp.
They first put down their spears, bent down to wrap the skin around their feet. Then they picked up the spear and prepared to go into the water with great interest.
”Ye Xi, you are the first time to stab fish, so I want to say more,” the chief told him
”Remember, as soon as the skin is bitten, come back. Although the teeth of these fish are short but very sharp, without the protection of animal skin, they will be bitten and bleeding immediately. And as soon as they smell the blood, they all rush over like crazy. ”
”So it will be troublesome.”
Ye Xi nodded: ”OK, I know.”
Standing in the water, immediately there are many piranha fish around, shaking their heads and tails to gnaw Ye Xi's animal skin and foot binding.
Although he felt the strength coming from his feet, ye Xi didn't care. Anyway, they couldn't bite through the skin for a while.
He looked down at the water around him, and saw that in addition to the piranha, there were small separate fish.
This kind of fish has a big head and a blue shell, but its body is very small and it swims slowly in the water.
Piranhas sometimes attack them, but when the fish sees an enemy, it swims its tail and runs so fast that it can't catch up with it.
The continuous rainstorm raised the water level, and the small fish swam out of the river first.
Ye Xi noticed that ye Xi was looking at the fish. He stood beside him and said, ”this kind of fish doesn't need to take care of it. It doesn't have any meat.”
Ye Xi: ”yes.”
Seeing more and more piranhas tearing at their feet, ye Xi shook his feet vigorously.
There is no loose mouth.
Ye Xi held up his spear and aimed at the piranha that bit the skin of his ankle with a sharp stab.
Seeing ye Xi's action, he gave a jump: ”Ye Xi, you are not afraid to stab yourself in the foot!”
