The Nasan people worked quickly in the wind and waves, and inserted twenty or thirty sharp knives into the beach.

The place where they buried their knives was on the beach, just at the edge of the ice sheet, with wind and waves hitting, so it was very dangerous to stay in such a place, so they worked very quickly.

As the wind grew stronger and the waves became bigger, the sound of "bang bang" hitting the ice cap was extremely terrifying.

Looking at the knives erected on the ice, Li Du understood their methods of hunting seals.

Seals have very soft belly. When they crawl, they must stick to the ice surface. In this way, when a sharp blade is exposed to the ice surface, they will pass through the knife and their belly will be cut by the knife.

Because seals have thick fat all over their bodies and the nerves in the fat layer are not rich, they do not feel pain and eventually die of excessive blood loss.

Li Du said: "I have seen this hunting method, but it is used to hunt crocodiles. I didn't expect that I could use this method to hunt seals."

Big Ivan looked at him strangely and said, "Hunting crocodiles? Have you ever seen anyone use this method to kill crocodiles?"

Li Du shrugged and said, "I haven't seen it with my own eyes, but I've seen it in some books."

Big Ivan shook his head and said, "No, boss, what you see is fake. You can't use this method to hunt crocodiles."

Li Du asked strangely: "Why can't it? The crocodile's armor is hard, can't it be possible to hunt them through their belly?"

Big Ivan still shook his head: "First of all, crocodiles are reptiles, but their limbs are strong and their belly is not close to the ground; secondly, the most valuable thing about crocodiles is their skin, which will destroy their abdomen; most importantly, the crocodiles feel sensitive on their abdomen, and they will clearly feel pain after being cut."

After hearing his words, Li Du was stunned and said, "Is the information I read fake?"

Da Ivan said: "It must be fake. Hunting crocodiles is based on anesthesia guns or rope covers. They tie their necks with rope covers and drag them ashore to hunt them."

After setting up the knife formation, the Nasan people came over to wave and took them away.

Sotar Nasan specially explained the reason for Li Du's actions. Ivan translated: "This is a hard work, you have to brave the wind and waves, and you have to do it quickly."

"Why?" Li Du said, "Can't you usually do?"

"It's not possible. Usually, seals are carried by the sea or in the water, and will not go deep into the land. And there is no cover for waves, seals can see the upright knife. In order to protect their belly, they will not pass through rough places on the ground."

"The reason why we do things quickly is because we don't know when the sea will crawl in the sea. The seals will become violent when they find strangers around them. They can easily kill someone in close proximity."

Next is waiting, when the difficulties in this life are buried.

A group of people pursed their clothes, shivered their heads, shivered in the cold wind, and looked at the seals in the distance.

Li Du asked: "Can't you go back and wait? Come back to check the situation after a while, anyway, the dead seals can't escape."

"They can't escape, but they will be eaten. Once the seal is cut, it will bleed a lot. There are sharks in the sea, polar bears, Arctic wolf and Arctic foxes on the shore, and birds in the sky. They all like to eat seals. The long wait has begun. The waves hit the shore and splashed a lot of waves, covering up the knife on it to a certain extent, but some will be left after the sea water comes ashore and will slowly freeze.

There are not many knives exposed on the ground, because seals are not stupid either. The blades exposed outside are too long and they will avoid them once they notice them.

The Nasan people did not blink, but they were not staring at the blade, but at the sea.

They hope that seals will appear again at this time. While the part of the knife exposed on the surface has not frozen and is covered by waves, it will be difficult for seals to find the existence of the knife and it will be easy to fall into a trap if seals climb onto the shore.

Unfortunately, they watched with a gaze, but no seals climbed up from beginning to end.

Sodaer Nasan and others shook their heads one after another, looking quite depressed.

"Living in the polar region is so difficult. They risked their lives to hunt ten times, and I'm afraid they could succeed only two or three times." said Ivan.

Li Du remembered the hunting peoples they encountered on the African grasslands. They had a hard time survival and it was very difficult to hunt in the wild, and it was not as simple as the rich driving with guns to play.

After waiting in the wild for four or five hours, there was no harvest. This hunting was like a failure.

The Nasans braved the storm and chiseled out the ice-formed knife, and they had to continue traveling and search for prey.

There was no harvest on land, so they turned to the sea, threw down the fishing nets by the sea, and dragged the fishing nets over and over again onto the ice.

The wind and waves appeared on the beach with some fish, which was their goal. After casting a few nets, they caught some silver-white sea fish.

Seeing this, the men still shook their heads. The number of these sea fish was not enough. There were fifty or sixty people in their ethnic group, and they could eat fifty or sixty kilograms in a meal.

Sodaer Nasan went to collect all the fish, chopped off the fish head with a knife and threw it back into the sea.

Li Du told Ivan: "For them, this is too wasteful? Fish heads can be used as bait for hunting, such as to attract seals or wolves."

Ivan went to chat with Sotar Nasan, and came back and shook his head, "This is their belief, which belongs to the shamanism. They believe that all life will go through a cycle of life and death and rebirth. Throwing the fish head into the sea is to allow the fish to be reborn."

Li Du shrugged, Nasan people's ideas were so unique.

Great Ivan told him that there are some special things for the Nasan people to name newborn babies, usually the names of newly-dead members of the clan, followed by the names of important members who died in the clan, representing the rebirth and return of these people.

Therefore, the Nasan people are not afraid of death. Just like faith, death is just the beginning of a new life.

Dao shook his head and said, "This is why the number of people in their tribe is getting smaller and smaller. If they are afraid of death and try to survive, they can survive longer."

After working outside for a whole day, they embarked on the return journey exhausted, but only carried more than twenty sea fish of all sizes.

Ah Ah were running and gliding on the ice. They didn't have to worry about food and drink. As long as Li Du didn't beat them, there was no time to worry about them. A few little guys were having fun together.

When passing by the sea, they encountered a lonely seal.

Ao saw that it was round and chubby, so he ran to tease it.

But seals are not easy to deal with. This is a seal with gray spots, weighing 100 kilograms. Ao gnawed it, and it suddenly twisted and rushed towards it, opened its mouth and launched an attack!

Fortunately, the seal had poor mobility on the shore, and Ao reacted quickly and fled with his tail in time to avoid being bitten.

However, the ice surface was too slippery, Ao ran and couldn't stand firmly, and finally hit the ice layer with his head.
