Chapter 14 The Saint and the Hunter
"Ha ha ha ha!"
"Aren't you crazy? You dare to throw all unpalatable fish to me. Today I want you to know what is the anger of Black Dragon Queen Elena."
Under the tall trees, Ace was tragically **** in a ball, his tail was hung on the trunk, and his face was hanging upside down, and Elena cast the "whip of painful thorns" that Ace had shown her. ", and showed a wild smile.
Eliza didn't laugh at him at this time, but smiled a little.
But what she did made Ace shudder. Dozens of extremely poisonous weeds are floating in the air under the control of Eliza, mixing slowly.
A pungent smell came, and Ace's little heart was thumping in fright.
In the evening, Ace, who was severely repaired by two little black dragons, squatted on the throne with a very ugly expression.
Two little black dragons lay on both sides like door gods, kobold scholar Ronnie Stam. At this time, they are reporting their income for the past few days below.
"Report Your Majesty, the tribe led by your servant now has 272 adult kobolds and 185 minor kobolds."
"Among the adult kobolds, there are one hundred and thirty-four ordinary swamp kobolds after evolution, fifty-one first-order swamp kobold warriors, one second-level kobold priest and one kobold hero plus myself. .”
"Under your guidance these days, we have stored a large amount of food. We have thirty-two tons of carnivorous fish, three tons of ordinary herbivorous fish, and some edible ones picked by our kobolds, the old and the weak. Twenty-one tons of plants."
"There are thirty-five tons of meat and twenty-one tons of edible plants."
Kobold scholar Ronnie Stam held a slate and respectfully stated each item of data.
Kobold scholar Ronnie Stam is very proud of having achieved such a great result in a few days.
Thirty-five tons of meat is quite a large number, equivalent to 35,000 kilograms or 70,000 catties of meat.
In addition to vegetarianism, the entire kobold tribe of more than 400 kobolds cannot eat so much food in a year.
They saved so much food in a few days, and their kobold tribe really worked really hard.
As for why kobold scholar kobold scholar Ronnie Stam can calculate and understand weight units, this is of course Ace's soul transmission to the other party.
Listening to so much food, especially a full thirty-five tons of meat, Ace nodded in satisfaction.
Now he has to eat two tons of food every three days, thirty-five tons, enough for him to eat for more than a month.
In a few days, the other party was able to get so much food mostly composed of carnivorous fish, which is really quite capable.
As for the little vegetarian fish in the meat diet, Ace also expressed his understanding. After all, the kobolds are not very smart, and it is not easy to catch fish in the water.
Manslaughter is a very normal thing. As long as the predatory fish maintains a rapid decline in nature, the problem is not a big one.
"Bring me all the thirty-five tons of meat."
Ace, who felt his stomach was empty again, said with a wave of his hand.
Kobold scholar Ronnie Stam lowered his head and said, "Your orders are above all else!"
After a while, with the efforts of many kobolds, thirty-five tons of meat filled the entire hall.
Eleanor stared at the pile of meat piled up in front of her with bright eyes.
Without waiting for Ace, he jumped on him and started eating.
The food they ate during the day only filled their superficial stomachs, and the innermost stomach, which was like a storage ring, was not yet filled.
Most of the giant dragons are aware of crisis. Generally, when they are awake, they do not allow their stomachs to be empty.
After all, no one knows when humans will kill them, so they have to store enough food to replenish their physical strength for running.
Sanlong ate so much that he insisted on filling his stomach with more than thirty-five tons of meat in one night.
Ace ate the most, eating seventeen tons, and nearly half of the meat went into his stomach.
After eating and drinking enough, Ace sat on the throne contentedly, and the whole dragon seemed a little lazy.
Eleanor and Eliza were also overwhelmed, lying on both sides of Ace, not wanting to move.
During the break, endless storms of thought were circulating in Ace's mind.
Why did he use all kinds of methods to destroy the carnivorous fish in the rainforest?
This is actually related to a story.
A long, long time ago, a sage with a third level of thought met a hunter at the foot of the mountain while traveling.
Orion sat on a wooden stake and sighed, his face was full of sorrow and helplessness, and he looked extremely decadent.
Facing Orion who was frowning, the sage asked him: "Why are you so sad? Did you encounter any difficulties? Or you are worried about your future."
The hunter said: "Four years ago, my third son was eaten by a tiger when I was hunting in the mountains. Three years ago, my fourth son was starved to death because I couldn't hunt prey. One year ago, I focused on cultivating My eldest son also fell off a cliff because of avoiding the pursuit of a tiger, and in the not-too-distant winter, my youngest son, nine, who was only four or five years old, was killed when a tiger sneaked into the house while I was out."
"I didn't mess with that tiger, why does he always have trouble with me?"
"I don't understand why the other party is targeting me so much? I haven't hurt him."
"Also, I obviously worked so hard. I went out early and returned late every day, desperately hunting for food for my family, but several of my sons were starved to death."
“I feel that my life is full of sadness and helplessness, so I sit here and sigh.”
The sage listened to Orion's words, pondered for a while, and then picked up a stick from the bush.
said: "Do you know how much meat a tiger eats in a day?"
The Orion nodded and said: "I know this, the tiger eats twenty catties of meat every day, and this does not include the bones and what he wasted. If you add up the bones and what he wasted, there may be three pounds. Forty catties."
The saint smiled.
said again: "Then count as thirty catties!"
"A tiger eats thirty catties of meat a day, three hundred catties in ten days, three thousand catties in one hundred days, and close to ten thousand catties a year."
"Ten thousand catties?"
Orion was a little confused. He didn't have a brain that had received knowledge and education, so it was difficult for him to accept such a huge number of 10,000 catties.
Seeing that the Orion was confused, the sage changed his way and said: "A sheep with a hundred catties, ten thousand catties is equivalent to a hundred sheep."
Orion said happily this time: "I know that, the price of selling a hundred sheep is very expensive, and my family can't eat it all in a lifetime."
"A tiger will eat a hundred sheep in a year, and there are more than one tiger on the mountain. I see that the mountain behind you is deep in the clouds and mist, and there is no end to it. You can raise 100,000 tigers."
"The meat eaten by a tiger can feed more than 50 of your offspring, and the food occupied by one hundred thousand tigers can support five million of your offspring!"
"If you and your descendants can kill all the tigers in this mountain and live in the place where the tigers belong, you and your descendants will become a country that will be passed down in the mountains forever."
The hunter fell to his knees and watched the saint go away in the morning light.
In the following twenty years, the hunter took his remaining four sons and dozens of grandchildren who were born later, and no longer avoided tigers. They bought bows and arrows, scimitars, long swords, and spears from the mountain, and joined forces to kill tigers. Tigers in the mountains and various carnivorous beasts.
The disappearance of tigers and various carnivorous beasts made the hunter and his descendants occupy the position of carnivorous beasts in the forest to a certain extent.
In the following hundreds of years, hunters and their descendants persevered and expanded step by step into the mountains.
Their mission is to hunt tigers and leopards and all kinds of beasts. Abundant meat resources make the hunters' descendants extremely strong. The courage to fight face-to-face with tigers and leopards has also tempered their incomparable willpower. A person who can live to adulthood is a strong fighter who can make ordinary people fearful. As for the weak, they will gradually disappear in the fight with tigers and leopards.
Hundreds of years later, all the tigers in the mountain range with 100,000 tigers disappeared, and a powerful country proud of hunting tigers and leopards rose in this mountain range.
The sage actually only answered a question of the hunter, but the question he answered solved all the problems the hunter encountered.
Tigers want to eat meat, and humans also want to eat meat. There are only so many resources in the forest. If you eat more, I will eat less.
From the moment the hunter stepped into the forest, the two actually had irreconcilable contradictions.
Hunters hunt desperately, reducing the food in the forest. Tigers can't find anything to eat, so they can only eat people.
If the prey is eaten by the tiger, the hunter will not be able to hunt food, and there will be no food, so his son can only starve to death.
The relationship between the two has been sworn enemies from the very beginning.
The hunter's retreat is actually forcing himself to die. If he really wants to live better, he can only face up to the difficulties, kill the tiger, and kill all the beasts that can compete with him for resources. , the food share in the forest belongs to the hunter.
The food share allows the hunter to have sufficient food, and sufficient food allows him to raise more offspring, and his family can grow stronger and stronger. In this way, it can snowball over time and make the snowball more and more It got bigger and bigger, and eventually it became a country.
On the throne, Ace pondered slowly, reminiscing about the hidden meaning and knowledge hidden in the dark in the story, which only second-level thoughts can see through.
In his previous life, a great man once put forward the realm of thought. Mountains are mountains, water is water, mountains are not mountains, water is not water, mountains are mountains, and water is water.
