Volume 1 Sunrise in the East and Setting in the West Chapter 77 Red Fruit

The water curtain that pours down is like a mirror, and the sun shines on it, sparkling, and the stone cave is also illuminated by the bright light of the water curtain.

At this time, Qin Xiao was shocked to find that there were many fruits growing on the surrounding stone walls.

These fruits are all red, but the leaves on the side are purple, Qin Xiao has read a lot of books, and he also has some understanding of many strange flowers and plants, but he has never seen such red fruits.

The red fruit grows out of the cracks in the stone wall, although it is not large, it is as red as fire, and it looks very good.

Qin Xiao knew that the more beautiful many fruits were, the more toxic they were, and he didn't know if these red fruits were poisonous.

When I stood up, although my body was still a little sore, it was no longer a big problem.

He wondered in his heart that the giant ape had caught him last night, and instead of poisoning him, he had thrown himself into the cave, and he didn't know what it wanted.

Qin Xiao knew that the giant ape was completely different from the mandrill.

This giant ape is huge, it looks like it has lived for many years, Qin Xiao knows that although it is a mountain and wild spiritual creature, it really can't be underestimated, such a strange beast must have spirituality, and it will bring itself to the cave, but I am afraid that it really has a purpose.

Outside the cave is the hanging stone road, Qin Xiao knows that this hanging stone road is connected to the big stone platform opposite, in the middle is the deep pool, out of the cave is only ten steps away, is the big water curtain pouring down.

Qin Xiao didn't know if the giant ape was still on the big stone platform, so he walked in front of the water curtain at the moment, took a deep breath, and rushed forward like a cheetah, the waterfall hit his body, extremely heavy, fortunately, he was extremely fast, and he passed through quickly, and his whole body was all wet in just one stroke.

Through the water curtain, the sun was shining, and the suspended stone path led to the opposite side, and I saw that the giant ape was sitting on the edge of the deep pool, with his back to this side, as if he was looking at something.

Last night, I only saw the giant ape with long hair, and I didn't see the color clearly, at this time under the sun, I could see clearly, the giant ape was mainly brown hair, but there were a lot of white hairs mixed with it, obviously this giant ape was not young, and even an old ape.

I don't know if the old ape heard the movement behind him, but he sat there anyway, like a stone sculpture, as if he was basking in the sun, and seemed to be reminiscing about the past.

Qin Xiao secretly complained, the giant ape was sitting at the entrance of the suspended stone path, if he wanted to leave, this hanging stone path was the only exit, and now it was blocked by the giant ape, and he couldn't leave at all.

He looked down and saw that the deep pool was bottomless, and the waterfall hit down, smashing violent waves, and knew that if it fell down the stone path, it would be crushed.

In front of the giant ape blocking the way, an ape is the pass, ten thousand people are not open, but there is a bottomless deep pool on the left and right, and there is a stone cave in the back, there is really no way to enter the heavens and no door, Qin Xiao never thought that he would be in such a situation, and he couldn't think of a way to leave when he broke his head.

Retreating to the stone cave, he simply didn't care about anything else, and practiced the [Taigu Yi Qi Technique] for two hours, feeling refreshed.

He thought that as long as the giant ape held on for a day, he would not be able to leave for a day, and the only hope was that he could take the opportunity to escape when the giant ape left.

When the hunters went up to the mountains to hunt, they could meet the giant ape in the jungle, which proved that this guy was often active in the mountains and forests, and it was impossible for him to stay on the stone platform all the time.

But when the giant ape will leave is really a question.

If it doesn't leave, will it be trapped here?

Stuck here, the first thing to solve is the problem of eating and drinking.

The water source is not a problem, out of the stone cave, is the waterfall, the water in the mountain is naturally sweet enough to nourish people, and there is a clay pot in the cave, which is suitable for holding water.

But food is a real problem.

The package prepared by Hongye, Qin Xiao has been carrying it on his back, and there is still a little dry food in it, which can last for two or three days, but after two or three days, what should I do?

However, he thought that the giant ape could not have been guarding the intersection for two or three days, and he observed from time to time, as long as the old ape left, it was the time for him to escape.

He knew that it was useless for him to be in a hurry, and now that he had thought of a way and there was hope, he no longer had to worry.

In the next two days, he ate and drank, and from time to time he went through the water curtain to check the situation, but the old ape sat there from beginning to end, like a stone statue, and Qin Xiao could only return every time.

At dusk on the third day, Qin Xiao went out again, but he was pleasantly surprised to find that the giant ape was gone, and he was really overjoyed, secretly thinking that it was really time for the old ape to leave, his dry food was exhausted, and if he couldn't leave again, he would really starve to death.

He looked around, made sure that the old ape was not nearby, let go of his legs at the moment, and quickly ran across the suspended stone path, as soon as he ran to the big stone platform, he heard an ape roar, Qin Xiao was frightened, and saw a big rock not far away, the old ape jumped up to the sky, and then jumped a few times, and had already arrived in front of him.

"I'm going to die right now." Qin Xiao's whole body softened.

The old ape still didn't hurt Qin Xiao, circled around Qin Xiao a few times, sniffed with his nose straight, and suddenly reached out and grabbed Qin Xiao's back collar, returned to the deep pool, just like last time, threw Qin Xiao into the stone cave again.

Qin Xiao passed out again without accident this time, and when he woke up, it was dark outside, knowing that it was late at night, he struggled to sit up, smiled bitterly in his heart, and secretly thought that the old ape had really become a sperm.

There was no doubt that the old ape had apparently deliberately hid behind the rocks, just waiting for himself to get out.

It seems that the old ape guessed his own thoughts, and knew that he wanted to escape while it was leaving, so he deliberately hid and waited for himself to go out and give himself a good look.

The old ape has infinite strength and amazing speed, it is not something he can deal with, but now this old guy still has the wisdom to set a trap, Qin Xiao only feels that life is more miserable than this.

In the next two days, in addition to cultivating the [Ancient Yi Qi Technique], Qin Xiao occasionally went out to take a look, most of the time the old ape stayed there, and twice disappeared, Qin Xiao didn't dare to go out easily, and deliberately waited for a long time, once the old ape couldn't hold it and ran out by himself, and once he waited for a stick of incense, Qin Xiao saw that there was no movement, and tiptoed to the big stone platform, and saw that the old ape had just jumped out from behind the rock, and immediately turned around and ran back to the stone cave.

After another two days, Qin Xiao had no more rations, he was hungry for a whole day, his body was a little weak, he could only drink water to replenish his stomach, and he lasted until the dusk of the next day, he was a little faint with hunger, and the old ape was still there without moving.

Looking at the red fruits on the stone wall, Qin Xiao knew that if he ate these fruits, he might be able to survive, but whether this red fruit was poisonous or not, he couldn't be sure, in case he took the poisonous fruit and was poisoned without starvation, it would be really sad.

In the middle of the night, I couldn't stand it anymore.

Thinking in his heart, this stone cave was obviously inhabited by someone, since that person lived in the cave, it is very likely that he had eaten the red fruit, if the red fruit was poisonous, that person must have died of poison, if he died, and the old ape could not come in through the hanging stone path to collect the corpse, then the corpse must have rotted in this cave.

However, there are no dry bones in this cave, which means that unless the person has not taken the red fruit at all, it can only prove that the red fruit is not poisonous.

Qin Xiao thought that the only food that could sustain him at the moment was Chiguo, even if he was poisoned, it was better than being starved to death.

Red fruit is poisonous or not, it is not certain, at least half of the chance is non-toxic, if you guard the non-toxic red fruit but starve to death, it is really a big joke.

At that moment, he no longer hesitated, picked a red fruit from the stone wall, didn't think about it, threw it into his mouth, took a bite, a sweet juice filled his mouth, and then a burst of aroma wafted out of his mouth.

"It tastes good." Qin Xiao couldn't help but admire.

He plucked a dozen more from the stone wall and ate them all in a moment.

The stone wall is full of red fruits, not to mention two or three hundred, saving a little food, but it can last for a while.

Although a dozen fruits are in the stomach, it is not enough to eat enough, but it is not dizzy from hunger.

Lying on a haystack with a pillow wrap, the fragrance of the vultures in his mouth diffuses.

I slept for a while, but I was woken up by a feeling of heat, and then I found that I was stained with sweat all over my body, and the worst thing is that the five organs in my chest cavity were like being on fire, which was extremely uncomfortable, and sweat overflowed from the skin.

Qin Xiao quickly took off his shirt, leaving only a pair of shorts, but the heat was still unstoppable.

When March, the weather in Xiling is still quite cool, especially at night, even a little cold, this stone cave outside is a waterfall, and the night is even more cold in the stone cave.

Qin Xiao immediately thought of the red fruit he had eaten, and knew that if nothing else, it must be the red fruit that caused his body to be abnormal.

He was annoyed, but at this time, his body was hot, like being in a steamer, there was no way, he rushed out of the stone cave and ran to the bottom of the waterfall, hoping that the coolness of the waterfall water would slow down his heat.

He didn't dare to go to the middle of the waves, the huge curtain of the waterfall was full of impact, if he was in the center, if he was not careful, he would be washed by the waterfall under the suspended stone path, and he could only stand on the edge.

But the amount of water was enough to drench his whole body.

Although it is the edge, the impact from top to bottom is also extremely strong, Qin Xiao clenched his hands into fists, trying his best to stabilize his body, Rao is so, his body is still shaken by the impact of the water waves.

The cold water poured the whole body, and the feeling of the heat did get some relief, but the heat did not come from the outside, but in the body, although there was a cold water impact, but the whole body was still sweating, and the water of the waterfall was mixed with sweat, but the feeling was never experienced.

After standing like this for more than half an hour, the feeling of roasting like fire slowly dissipated, Qin Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, returned to the cave, sat on the haystack, soaked all over, and sweated, but at this time, he suddenly felt that the whole person was refreshed, and there was an indescribable comfort.

He lay upside down, this time squinting and falling asleep.

When he woke up, the sky was already bright, Qin Xiao sat up, and suddenly found that his skin around him was ruddy, as if he had applied rouge, he was stunned for a while, and the rouge had not faded for a long time, Qin Xiao was surprised, and secretly thought that if he left here alive, how would he see people in the future?
