Chapter 6 Courage is the key to success (Please save and read)
Unlike the gloomy forest, the lawn outside is bright and sunny.
The lawn was not very big, probably about two miles in size, and it was overgrown with all kinds of weeds, some as high as one or two meters. It was growing wildly. Xu Yang could hardly see his own shadow as he walked in it.
Xu Yang's nose was filled with the scent of various wild flowers and weeds, and he could not smell even the slightest scent of animals.
There are quite a lot of tiny insects such as butterflies, dragonflies and bees, but unfortunately they are not on Xu Yang's diet. When he saw the bees, he was thinking about whether he could find a beehive and get some honey, but after watching a bee collect honey and then fly into the dense forest, he had to give up the idea.
"Hua hua hua~~"
Wandering around aimlessly, Xu Yang suddenly heard the sound of waves washing sand and gravel, and his nose also felt the thick water vapor.
Will there be any fish?
Hope rekindled in Xu Yang's heart.
There is no fish in the wolf's regular diet, but now the owner of this body is Xu Yang, and he is so hungry that he can stuff any meat into his stomach.
As they jogged, weeds fell all around them and the sound of waves became louder and louder.
There is no road in the world, and the brave wolf will open up a road by himself. The thick wolf hair made Xu Yang fearless of the weeds and dead branches. He walked about 500 meters towards the dense water vapor and finally reached the source of the water waves!
A lake with an overall diameter of about two kilometers appeared in front of Xu Yang.
This is an inland silted lake, wide from east to west and narrow from north to south. At the narrowest point, the two banks are less than 100 meters apart. At this moment, there are several ferocious crocodiles basking in the sun by the lake, and there are also some driftwood like dead tree trunks floating leisurely in the water. In the shallow water in the distance, there are several tall-legged water birds looking for small fish. The reeds on the shore are rustling, and it is obvious that there are some creatures moving inside...
Looking at the vibrant scene in front of him, Xu Yang was surprised and distressed at the same time.
Being able to raise large animals like crocodiles, it is obvious that this lake is rich in resources and has no shortage of food. However, with abundant food, there must be no shortage of carnivorous hunters in the lake... I am only a "half-baked" wild wolf now, with little knowledge of survival in the wild. In addition, wolves are small in size and cannot defeat the freshwater overlords. Therefore, this bite of food is not so easy to get.
"Gudong~~~"
The sounds of heavy objects falling into the water were heard one after another.
Several crocodiles saw the gray-haired wolf emerging from the weeds, and with their nimble limbs, they quickly sank into the water.
Xu Yang showed a bitter look, well, the host was ready to welcome the 'jackal'.
"Gugu~~"
The giant crocodile and hunger, the double crisis tormented Xu Yang. Even a clay man would have some temper, let alone a human being?
Looking at the still rippling lake, Xu Yang's eyes revealed a fierce light for the first time!
Done! The wolf dies and the bird flies to the sky, it will live forever!
The weeds were high above the lake, and there was a 60-70 meter long rocky beach separating it from the lakeshore. Although Xu Yang was determined not to be afraid, he would not go straight to the giant crocodile without thinking. He carefully avoided the widest east and west shores and ran towards the shallows where the water birds were catching fish.
"Flutter~~~"
Although Xu Yang's aura was not strong, the unique aura of a carnivore was still enough to intimidate the water birds.
After driving away a few water birds, Xu Yang waded down. The water was not deep, only about 20 to 30 centimeters. Because the water birds were catching fish everywhere, the water was a little turbid.
The shallow water was good news for Xu Yang. At least he didn't have to worry about a giant crocodile sneaking up on him and suddenly giving him a death roll.
There weren't many fish, but there were some. Xu Yang stood in the water and looked around. He could see two silver carps about eight or nine meters away from him. The silver carps were about the width of a palm and more than thirty centimeters long, so they were considered big fish.
Gently breaking the surface of the water, Xu Yang wanted to catch the two silver carp.
Eight meters, seven meters, six meters... When Xu Yang approached within five meters of the silver carp, the silver carp's stupid brain also sensed something was wrong. Water is their home ground. The two silver carps flicked their tails and instantly rushed out five meters away.
Apart from jumping out when the silver carp swung its tail, splashing a large amount of water and muddying the water, Xu Yang didn't gain anything.
There is a reason why fish is not in the wolf's diet
The hunger in his stomach did not allow Xu Yang to be depressed. He looked again and found that the silver carp did not swim far away.
"Are you reluctant to part with these water hyacinths?"
Xu Yang's eyes rolled around, and he came up with a plan in his mind - the 'aquatic version' of waiting for the rabbit by the tree, waiting for the fish by the gourd. If this method is used to deal with terrestrial animals, the effect will definitely be very poor, but it is not impossible to succeed when used to deal with stupid silver carp.
Xu Yang stared at the two silver carps more than ten meters away, and slowly retreated until he retreated to the zucchini bushes floating on the shore. With his limbs bent, Xu Yang hid most of his body in the water, with only his head above the nose exposed above the water.
Waiting and waiting... In the strong fishy smell of water and the fresh fragrance of zucchini, Xu Yang's heart was exceptionally calm.
Everything is ready, just waiting for the opportunity to come...
One minute, two minutes...ten minutes passed, and the silver carp's pitiful brain forgot the danger a few minutes ago and was driven towards the water hyacinth by instinct.
The water was very clear and Xu Yang could see everything clearly.
Two silver carps swam towards the water hyacinths without any vigilance, and Xu Yang, who was hiding in the gourd bushes, was not discovered.
'Seven meters, six meters, five meters... three meters, and still approaching, right now!'
Xu Yang shouted wildly in his heart, exerted strength with his limbs, and his wolf body broke through the water like an arrow from a bow. He leaped up suddenly and plunged into the water fiercely. His speed was as fast as lightning, and he was close to the unsuspecting silver carp in an instant.
The two forelimbs were like the sharpest harpoons, instantly piercing through the dorsal fin of the silver carp, and two streams of bright red blood bloomed at the bottom of the water.
[Resource +0.1]
[Resource +0.1]
This time, Xu Yang heard the prompt sound clearly. The two silver carp brought him 0.2 units of resources.
After catching two silver carp, Xu Yang quickly went ashore. The most important thing at this time was to fill his stomach.
After shaking off the two silver carp from his paws, Xu Yang grabbed one with his two front paws without a knife, fork or chopsticks, and began to chew it. To be honest, the taste was far worse than wild venison. The scales and fish bones made Xu Yang's mouth uncomfortable, and compared with the warm venison with a light salty taste, the fish meat was cold and fishy, and was not a delicacy.
But compared with starving to death with an empty stomach, all these disadvantages are not really disadvantages.
The two fish, bones and blood, weighing a total of seven or eight kilograms, all went into Xu Yang's stomach. Although he was far from full, at least he was not so hungry that his eyes turned green and his mind was full of "food, food".
Licking the corners of his mouth and front paws, Xu Yang felt a little unsatisfied. In the animal world, eating something is a great happiness.
