Mixing anesthetics with food was not Mufeng's first initiative.

He has seen others use corn and wheat mixed with rat poison to poison rats before, which is considered a local method.

It's just that he has now replaced the rat poison with an anesthetic, and replaced the wheat and corn with carrots.

As for how to numb the mammoth, he has to be prepared:

One is to find the frequent haunts of mammoths;

The second is to let the elephants get used to feeding.

Otherwise, he would throw food with anesthesia to the mammoth rashly. With the mammoth's caution and intelligence, he would definitely not be fooled.

He may also start to scare the snake.

So he decided to take the anesthetics he had prepared, with Han Shu and a group of fifty people, and headed towards Bai Shuyuan again in a hurry.

The last few times he saw the mammoths were in the south of Baishuyuan, so this time he went straight to the south and east of Baishuyuan.

But unfortunately, they walked for a long time without encountering a mammoth.

It was not until late in the evening that I saw a large piece of gnawed grass in the southeast.

He took a closer look at the broken grass stalks on the ground, and found that sprouts had sprouted underneath, and he was sure that it should have been here the day before.

Considering the danger he encountered when he was camping on the grassland, he didn't dare to chase after him rashly, and hurriedly led his clansmen to spend the night close to the forest.

After dawn the next day, he led the crowd to follow the trampled marks on the grass.

There is already Xialu on the grass, and it is very inconvenient for the mount to walk in it.

When Mu Feng thought of Xia Lu, herbivores generally do not eat grass with dew, so he told everyone to slow down their journey to prevent himself from accidentally startling the mammoth herd.

Fortunately, although Xia Lu is heavy, it also dries quickly.

It took less than an hour before and after the sun came out, and under the wind and sun, the grass and trees soon dried up.

Only then did Mu Feng urge everyone to continue searching.

But in this way, the animal hoof prints that were still clearly visible were not so obvious, and they had to be very careful to find the traces of the previous group of mammoths.

The hard work paid off, and in the evening of the second day, they finally found a group of mammoths along the traces in the grass.

The good news for Mu Feng is that there are not too many mammoths in this herd, there are only thirty or forty mammoths—this should be a small elephant herd.

Mu Feng clearly remembered that the group that chased him last time was no less than fifty!

But that's good too, Mu Feng didn't even dare to hope that he could catch dozens of heads at a time—he didn't even think about ten.

The real idea in his heart is to catch one or two ends and try his hands first, then sum up his experience and catch more next time.

After all, there are only a dozen or twenty mammoths in the big tribes, which is enough to show how difficult they are to catch.

Now that the mammoth was discovered, Mu Feng naturally began to arrange it. He asked people to cut a pile of grass that the mammoth liked to eat, and then mixed a little radish in it.

Then people carefully and carefully approached the direction where the mammoth was grazing, put a pile of grass mixed with chopped carrots there, and then carefully retreated.

Mu Feng waited patiently, nestled in the sacred grass and carefully visited.

In order to ensure that no traces were exposed, he asked most of the troops to withdraw from this area, and he took Han Shu and Hu Leibao to observe carefully nearby, leaving only the pockmarks in the middle to keep in touch.

The two of them nestled in the grass and waited for two hours. The elephants turned left and right for a while, but they couldn't reach the place where Mufeng and the others put the haystack.

This made Mu Feng very anxious, almost two hours later, those haystacks should be withered: "Could it be possible to return without success today?"

Han Shu at the side was obviously more anxious than Mu Feng, he asked Mu Feng in an imperceptible voice: "Great chief, do you want me to go over and drive them to the haystack as soon as possible?"

After thinking about it, Mu Feng shook his head, signaling him to wait patiently.

Finally, after another half hour, the mammoth finally walked towards the place where they put the haystack.
Mu Feng vaguely saw the group of mammoths through the tip of the grass, obviously hesitating for a while, and then one or two mammoths rolled up the grass from the ground and put it in their mouths to eat, and it took a while for the other mammoths to follow suit stand up.

Mu Feng was excited in his heart, looking forward to the group of mammoths eating the "grass" he had prepared.

But because of the distance, he couldn't see if what they were eating was the pile of grass he had prepared.

Half an hour later, the mammoth herd moved again and followed the guarding group to the east—it seemed that they were going to drink water.

Mu Feng didn't dare to act rashly, and waited until the mammoth herd was far away before running to the place where the haystack was placed with Han Shumao, only to find that the haystack had been eaten clean.

He clenched his fists excitedly: "It's done!"

Han Shu didn't understand, so he said, "Chief, these mammoths seem to eat such fodder, why didn't you come up and put anesthetics on them?"

Mu Feng smiled and shook his head: "The anesthetic is mixed with several kinds of herbs. The taste is too strong. They won't eat it if it's too irritating all at once! Let them take it step by step and have a process of adaptation!"

Han Shu seemed to understand, and nodded.

"Okay," Mu Feng said with a smile, "Now call Shuo Feng and the others to follow, and wait for tomorrow!"

"Tomorrow?" Han Shu was taken aback.

Mu Feng nodded: "Yes, I have to do this for the next few days, it will take a lot of effort, let's go!"

"Yes!" Han Shu agreed.

In the next few days, Mufeng and the others followed the group of mammoths, chasing water and grass, all the way crookedly from northwest to southeast, and then made a big circle from southeast to northwest.

Mufeng has roughly figured out the range of activities of this group of mammoths through these few days.

And he has been constantly changing the "recipe" of forage in the past few days:
