Danao Island, even though it is only eighty miles away, is equally boundless at first glance. The forest in the distance is shrouded in a layer of light blue mist, making it look extremely mysterious.
The group of brown apes chased us up the hillside. I said to General Ji, "Why don't you shoot them?" Because I saw that he would only occasionally shoot when the apes were chasing too closely.
Shoot an arrow and shoot down the one running in front.
"I shoot this pot of arrows as soon as I shoot them. I can't replenish them. I don't know how many I will use later, so I have to save some money."
I know that there is another reason. The jungle here is dense, and the group of chasing apes is extremely agile. His body only flashed, and then he was blocked by the layers of tree trunks and branches. He was afraid of wasting precious arrows.
The road was very difficult. Cui Yingying's pants and top were torn by thorns and she was a little embarrassed. I had to put the top with half a sleeve missing on her body. Yingying was panting and smiled gratefully at me.
And those brown apes don't seem to want to kill us all. Their current behavior is a bit bluffing, keeping an arrow's distance from us. It's not okay for General Ji to shoot, and it's not okay not to shoot. I don't know what their intentions are.
"Aren't we walking further and further away from King Tian and the others? No, we have to think of a way." I sat down on the ground and said to the three people.
Cui Yingying was very tired. When she heard what I said, she immediately sat next to her and refused to leave. She had reached her limit. After all, she was only a teenager. When the two generals saw this posture, they hurriedly came over.
Now, we are sitting on the top of a higher slope, which is considered a more open place. The wind is strong on the top, and there are no tall trees. Instead, there are weeds growing all over. General Meng slapped his thigh and said, "Yes!"
"
We hurriedly asked, "What has it? Who has it? Xu Lin has it?"
He rolled his eyes at us and said, "These brown apes have hair on their bodies, so of course they are afraid of fire. We might as well turn around and set fire to them so that they don't dare to come near, and then we can make plans."
Let's just do it. We left only Yingying to rest where she was. The three of us found many old dead branches and hay in the rock crevices, in the lee behind the rocks and at the base of the tree roots. They gathered them together in one place and lit them with fire sticks.
Then he threw the kindling into the haystack everywhere
It is said that people are suffering from mental illness, and it is true. Our busy work only caused thick smoke to rise in several places around us, and the fire did not burn even a single spark. Yingying saw that we were so smoked that she even
The sneezing brought tears to my eyes, and I couldn’t help laughing:
"Don't even look. There is grass everywhere. The little hay you picked up is only for smoking!"
The noise we made was not small. Seeing the thick smoke rising, the pursuers stopped moving forward and avoided the leeward.
Among the apes, I saw the female ape again. She jumped up and emerged from the apes. Her long black hair floated behind her like a black flag. When it landed, it hung down to cover it.
Lost half of his handsome face
Her face was as cold as ice, with no expression at all. Among a group of tawny apes, her snow-white figure was particularly conspicuous.
I saw her lift up and reach the base of a big tree. In one leap, she grabbed a branch ten feet high. With a kick on the trunk of the tree, her body soared up high again like a catapult. In just two clicks, she reached the top of the big tree.
top
"My darling, without more than ten years of training, I can't reach her level at all!" It was General Meng. As he said this, he put his hands on his arms. The gold in his arms might have fallen out of his chest due to the busy work just now.
The general put an arrow into his string and was on high alert
But I was worried, what if she got scratched while she was carelessly jumping among the thorns? Why, when I looked at her body, there was not a single scratch or bruise on her top, bottom, front, or back?
You are really good at it. You have to look at your own embarrassment and stick out your tongue.
She stood at the top of the tree, holding a thin branch that swayed in the wind with only one hand, and covering her eyes with the other hand, looking at the sky. The top of the big tree was blown by the wind, like a fan.
Yeah, I was so stunned that I didn’t shake her down.
The two generals were still searching for hay to add to our fire. They were sure that with fire, the apes would be able to take care of us.
I just looked at the female ape. A strong mountain wind blew away the branches that General Meng had just added to the fire. The dark clouds covering half of the sky rolled over like a mat. Thunder and lightning were wrapped in the clouds, and the sky suddenly turned dark.
"It's going to rain! My fire!" General Meng's desperate cry reached my ears.
And a dazzling bright flash, twisted, instantly set fire to the top of the big tree where the female ape was standing just now. After the dazzling light, I only saw the tree crown that was still smoking, and the heavy rain was pouring down.
Come down, the female ape is gone
I couldn't hear their frightened screams at all, I could only see the wet shadows of the rats jumping up and down one by one. Where is the female ape? Is she okay?
The swarming group of apes disappeared in the blink of an eye. These uncivilized things thought that the gods were angry. Just now, their leader had hoped that the heavy rain would help them. But the fire was extinguished, turning into black, half-black ashes.
The stream of water rushed past my feet. Everything was so white that I could hardly open my eyes.
I wiped the rain off my face, tried my best to open my eyes wide, and looked under the big tree that had been struck by lightning. I had to see whether she was alive or dead. I had to see if she was still there.
This is my only thought. What I saw in the cave, as well as Cui Yingying's words, and the two senior couples still in the cave, gave me a hunch that this female ape must have an unusual life experience.
The huge energy of the lightning instantly dried up all the water in the tree crown, and the heavy rain came immediately, extinguishing the fire. Now, it is just a lifeless reference object.
A dozen steps away from the tree trunk, I saw her, lying face up on the hillside, her long hair floating in the water.
She closed her eyes tightly, as if she was asleep. Her face at this time was much cuter than when she was awake, without the coldness and ferocity.
Without thinking, I ran straight over, grabbed her arm, and pulled her up from the ground. I looked around and saw that General Ji, General Meng, and Yingying were all gone, but I wasn’t worried about them. They were two grown men.
Taking care of a little girl shouldn't be a problem
I was anxious to know how this female ape was doing and whether she could be saved. I saw not far from us, there was a sloping boulder with its roots inserted into the rock slope. The exposed part looked like a car shed, which was perfect for shelter.
rain
I carried her there, and two brown apes sheltering from the rain saw us, screamed, rushed into the rain, and ran away.
I asked her to lie down on the dry stone slab leaning against the mountain. I stretched out my hand to detect her breathing. No, I put my hand on her heart. I tried hard to feel a slight beating. Fortunately, she was not dead.
through
I have to save her
First, I took off my pants and wring them dry. Although there was only one trouser leg, it was still a pair of pants.
I was only wearing a pair of soaked trousers, and my top had already been given to Yingying. She bent down, holding my trousers in one hand, and lifting one of her legs with the other.
