Guwei people invest a lot of manpower and material resources to catch whales every spring
At the beginning of March every year, all whaling rafts are ready to go, and at least half of the people need to participate in whaling. People gather in places where whales often appear and choose favorable terrain to set up camp.
Each raft is about tens of feet apart. After the hunters arrived at their destination, they began to take turns to watch every day, looking at the sea tirelessly, searching for the traces of whales.
Hunting such huge animals in the ocean is a very difficult and dangerous thing, both on ice and in water, and requires patience, perseverance and superb technology.
The unpredictable weather always threatens the safety of hunters and rafts. The strong winds and waves can overturn the boat at any time. The ice floes can crush the rafts like a matchbox.
Especially in the early summer, the ice under the hunter's feet will break at any time, and people will be frozen to death if they fall.
The huge body of prey itself is a threat to the hunter
The most gentle bowhead whales among whales, their huge tail can easily overturn the boat with just one swing, and humpback whales and gray whales are even more dangerous.
Therefore, most of the Guwei tribes whaling groups are collectively fighting and forming a whaling team. There are five people in a team, including an experienced hunter as the captain. Each raft consists of two oarists, a helmman and a throwing hand.
The traditional method of whaling is to hold a whale harpoon and throw it to the prey, exhausting the injured whale and causing it to surface.
This way the hunter has enough time to kill it with the dart
However, this method is not very effective. If there is only one or two harpoons thrown by the whale, the injured whale will still escape
At the same time, the harpoon is very heavy. It is never easy to accurately and forcefully throw the harpoon at the prey on the boat that is undulating with the waves.
The method of guwei people catching whales is different from this
They are usually driven by a hunter alone in search of prey
After the hunter stabbed the whale with a very light but poison-coated spear at the front, he immediately returned to the island to hold a series of shamanic rituals, praying to the gods to help them make the injured whale die soon.
Meanwhile, other people from the tribe took a boat to sea to monitor the situation of injured whales
As the whale kept swimming, the spear thrust deeper, and the poison gradually became immersed in its body.
Even if the spear is broken, the whale will eventually be poisoned. It may swim far away and the hunter cannot get it, but it will be obtained by others.
This method of whaling is commonly used on the island, so when the whaling season comes, you will see floating dead whales on the sea. The whales are huge and can be easily discovered. As a result, someone will always get it
To drag the whale from the sea, many people need to work together. In addition, the locals have the habit of eating whale meat raw, so they all have great strength.
If the whaling season is a bumper harvest, then you won’t have to worry about winter. Whales can provide a lot of meat and fat to meet the needs of most of the food and fuel for the island’s people in the year.
After the whaling season, people always hold grand festivals, usually for three or four days. During this period, shamans are held to worship the sky, thank the gods for their blessings, thank the whales for bringing rich food to everyone, soothe the whale's soul, and hope that there will be a good harvest in the coming year.
At the same time, relatives and friends from all over the world were invited to share the joy of victory. People sing, dance, tell stories, play games, stay up all night and have fun.
The young lady’s whaling method is unique and terrifying, and she is catching whaling with bare hands!
This is an asymmetrical power confrontation!
This is the real reason why she especially likes whaling!
Since you can't find an opponent on the mainland, whether it's a human or a beast, just jump into the cold North Sea!
That day, she took a raft to track down a huge gray whale. The hunter beside her was about to throw a poisoned spear and was stopped by her. A fierce man crawled into the sea full of floating ice. When she was young, she practiced excellent water in the Tianchi Lake of Changbai Mountain. She dived underwater and was as easy and fast as a mermaid. She quickly caught up with the gray whale and swam with it.
Day Ah!
What a big guy, he is so round from beginning to end that he is not ten feet long!
When the gray whale saw her, she was a little uneasy and kept shaking her head and tail, causing huge waves!
She passed through powerful undercurrents like an arrow, grabbing the dorsal fin of the gray whale as a horse riding
The gray whale seemed not used to swimming with people, and struggled desperately to get rid of this small burden on her back, but she couldn't succeed. After more than a moment, she didn't know if she was tired or had already accepted her fate, but she returned to her slow swimming posture.
She watched countless translucent fish and shrimp swimming by her side, and many of them were sucked into the huge whale's mouth, but she felt her eyes wide open.
After playing for a while, she remembered the main purpose of this trip. She swam to the whale head and grabbed the nostrils that were constantly spraying water out, and slammed the whale's head. The gray whale had no response at all. She felt so comfortable that she wagged her tail. It probably felt like it was tickling?
The young lady's self-esteem was hit hard, and she thought there was no need to practice muscles with this super big guy. She was busy secretly using her peerless magical skills to punch her again.
This punch is more than a thousand pounds!
The huge gray whale could not bear it anymore, and the fish tail as big as a cabin was about to sway over, and the thunderous stir almost knocked her out!
She quickly gathered the unparalleled protective energy of the body, lay on the whale's head and grabbed the whale's nose firmly. She punched out like raindrops, and then followed...
Driven by the survival instinct, the gray whale dived in an emergency. I don’t know how long it took, but the pressure in the water became increasingly greater and stronger, as if she was about to flatten her chest, her face turned red, and her eyes seemed to be squeezed out of the eye sockets. However, the force of the right fist she swung was not weakened, but instead became more and more powerful!
This is her trait, and she will be stronger when she encounters strong!
As she was dizzy, she felt that the rushing rushing through her body gradually subsided, and the water pressure gradually decreased. It seemed that the gray whale had begun to rise slowly, and finally floated on the Shanghai surface and remained motionless. I wonder if it was temporarily unconscious or dead?
When she opened her eyes, she saw a lot of blood emerged from the huge whale's mouth. It was obvious that her brain had broken after being hit hard, dyeing her whole body red
The long-haired hunters on the raft saw the new leader floating up and quickly rowed to her side and threw the rope. She tied the fish fins with the rope, but did not get on the boat. They grabbed the whale nose and paddled the water, and worked with the hunters on the raft to drag the gray whale to the shore.
In the north of the island, on the Oha Beach, which is still frozen in the world, hairy hunters sang and danced to celebrate the first whale they caught this year, and it was also a huge gray whale!
The young lady was too lazy to change her wet clothes. After her luck was dry, she transformed from a girl in blue to a beauty in red.
She personally handed the large piece of whale meat to the Guwei people, and repeated the same sentence happily: This gray whale has not been bleeding or poisoned, it has been caught by hand, and it has not died when it was dragged ashore, so the taste must be even more delicious!
People cut the fish slices and tasted it, and it turns out!
So bare-handed whaling became a fashion, gradually developing into the game of the bravest people on the island
However, this kind of whaling activity is too dangerous after all. Fewer than one of the thousands of people can succeed, but hundreds of people were swept into the whale tail and died. They can only deal with smaller narwhals. Decades later, this dangerous competitive sport was explicitly banned by the eldest daughter of the eldest daughter. Of course, this is a later story (I would like to remind you that the eldest daughter of the eldest daughter is more troublesome than her mother. Alas! The eldest daughters of the Murong Group are all so fierce. If they don’t cultivate enough innate immortal energy to become immortal, it will be a huge disaster for the mortal world)
The young lady was still excited and was still unsatisfied. She ordered people to divide about one-tenth of the whale corpses into large pieces, put more than a dozen deer-pulled sleds and sent them back to the Tyrannosaurus Army's headquarters, and asked the chef to share the soldiers with dinner. Each of them had a large piece of them, and the rest were hidden in the cellar.
In order to show her kindness to the Guwei tribe, she set an example and required that she must eat whale meat raw, with Xiaohong being the exception.
The soldiers of the Second Tyrannosaurus Army were so bitter that they had to swallow a sip of meat and drink a sip of wine to avoid the fishy fishy food.
The long-haired soldiers of the Third Tyrannosaurus Army were eating happily, and bonfires were lit everywhere in the camp, and they all spontaneously sang and danced, cheering for the first great harvest of this year's whaling season!
The eldest lady was a little amused and laughed. It seemed that in her (their)'s eyes, it was better to see that the tribe was conquered and the tribes were enslaved than to be more important than the tough and unpalatable whale meat in her hands?
In fact, it is right like them. Since you know you are powerless to change everything, enjoy the joy of life happily! It is always better than some so-called smart people who are always worried about goals that you can never achieve or situations that you cannot change, and sigh, making you feel bad, and the people around you feel uncomfortable. Xiaohong has come behind her at some point, and seems to have seen what she is thinking.
She stood in the cold wind without looking back and said: Sister Xiaohong, you feel this feeling because you feel helpless and powerless to change, so you also have troubles, right?
Xiaohong sighed: I am talking about myself. It’s better to be stupid, I’m lucky.
Zhou Yun shook her head, her face full of loneliness, and her voice was quiet: I am stupid enough, but I am still the same as you... She looked to the southwest, and could not see anything except the white space.
Xiaohong frowned and said: I think my eldest sister has fun all day long, how could she be like me?
Zhou Yun said quietly: In fact, no matter what you play, it is only fun to play with him. My eldest sister is just bored and pass the time, otherwise she will feel empty and extremely uncomfortable!
In the next few days, the eldest lady was completely obsessed with such a career. She caught a giant whale with bare hands every few days. The soldiers of the Second Tyrannosaurus Army had to eat whale meat raw for a long time, but gradually, after getting used to it, she felt that the taste was actually good!
The only thing everyone is worried about is whether hair will grow on their bodies as they continue to last?
