Chapter 248: Get Out

Li Chaoyang remembers very well that since they came up yesterday, the vines have always been in front of the stump, and now the vines are gone, and there is only one possibility, that is, the monkey did it.

I don't know if it's intentional or unintentional, but this is not a good situation for Li Chaoyang and them.

"Without a rope we would have to jump under the tree, but that would be risky." Mia said.

"It's not just a risk, as long as they lie on the tree and don't go down, we can't get over it at all, we have to think of other ways."

Li Chaoyang glanced left and right, they didn't have any tools except a tree trunk, and they couldn't reach the monkeys on the tree at all, and it was impossible to drive them away.

"I jumped over and chased them away." As she spoke, Mia lifted the trunk of the tree and made a gesture to rush over.

Li Chaoyang knew very well what would happen to Mia if she jumped over, and she had no chance of winning when she fought with a monkey in a tree, and even said that she was going to die, and Li Chaoyang could use this opportunity to get rid of her.

But he eventually grabbed Mia.

"There's a better way." Li Chaoyang said.

"What's the solution?"

"Fire."

As soon as Li Chaoyang said this, Mia suddenly realized, what he said is right, no animal is not afraid of fire, and monkeys are no exception.

The two of them said they would do it, Mia held the trunk and guarded the door to prevent the monkey from approaching, while Li Chaoyang smashed the trunk in his hand, gathered weeds and leaves, and lit the fire again.

Smoke rose from the mouth of the cave, and the monkeys on the roof of the cave immediately squeaked and ran away, and their methods worked.

The dry trunk was easy to light after being broken, the flames were getting higher and higher, and every piece of wood was lit, Li Chaoyang grabbed a handful of the most burning wood slag, as if holding a torch, when he came to the entrance of the cave, these monkeys did not seem to realize the danger coming, one by one poked their heads out and scrambled to climb up, and some bared their teeth and grimaced on the treetops.

Li Chaoyang threw down the wood slag in his hand without any hesitation, countless flames fell from the air like a heavenly maiden scattering flowers, some of the wood slag was extinguished in the process of falling, but most of them were still burning, and they landed in the monkey pile from the sky, and the gray-brown hair was immediately ignited by the flames.

The piercing screams came from the trees, and the monkeys on fire screamed and climbed down from the trees, but they were too dense, and this movement led the other monkeys, and the flames began to spread at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the monkeys were completely confused, crowded up and down, and the screams came one after another, and some monkeys jumped directly from the trees, and many of the monkeys were injured and limped into the depths of the woods.

The dry branches and leaves of the palm tree were also set on fire, and the brown hair burned faster than the monkey hair, and the treetops were burning in the wind, and the monkeys who climbed the treetops could not hide, so they could only scream and jump to the trees on the side.

The monkeys were crushed, they were covered in flames, and in the blink of an eye they were burned beyond recognition, the piercing screams were enough to penetrate their eardrums, and the air was filled with an unpleasant smell of burnt hair.

Some of the monkeys broke their legs and couldn't get up, so the others dragged them away with them.

The yellow-haired monkey jumped to his feet in a hurry, quickly jumped to the tree on the side, slid to the ground with the tree, roared at Li Chaoyang, and kept slapping the ground with both hands to demonstrate.

Immediately afterwards, it picked up Li Chaoyang's vine again, and bit it angrily.

In less than three minutes, all the monkeys ran away, and Li Chaoyang and they won.

The corpses of three monkeys were left under the palm trees, their heads tilted and their eyes stared, their bodies still smoking, curled up like children, their crooked mouths still oozing blood.

The biggest difference between humans and animals is that humans will use tools, and the emergence of fire has completely widened the distance between primitive people and primates, and a food that can cook food with fire to obtain more protein and be easier to digest has further stimulated the evolution of the human body.

Finally stood at the top of the food chain.

"Chen Yaodong, there are a lot of monkeys over there, and I saved Mu Ping from the monkeys last time." Mia sat at the entrance of the cave and let out a long breath.

The monkey's attack had scared her so much that these guys were like they were dying, but luckily they still had fire, otherwise they would have been trapped in the mountains today.

"Go down, we'll be in trouble when they come back." Li Chaoyang said.

"Okay, then you take the lead and jump down." Mia leaned against the cave wall and made a gesture of please.

Jump?

Li Chaoyang glanced down, and jumped from a height of more than ten meters to death.

"There are two ways, the first is to climb the rock, and the second is to jump to the opposite tree and climb down, which is also the most reliable way."

It is not easy to jump to the opposite tree, the cave where Li Chaoyang and them are located is three or four meters higher than the nearest palm tree, and jumping down can only jump to the fragile canopy of the palm tree, and because it is jumping on the canopy, it will inevitably produce violent shaking, and if you are not careful, you will fall.

It's just playing with your life.

"Don't dare, I know you don't dare, let me come!" Mia suddenly got up without hesitation, jumped and jumped down.

Li Chaoyang was stunned, and a scene that made him even more stunned appeared, Mia did not jump to the canopy, but opened her arms in the air and hugged the trunk steadily, her movements stretched and flexible, like a South American lizard flying in the air.

"Thank you for not killing me just now, so I'll let you go too, if you're still alive the next time we meet." Mia raised her head with such a smug expression, she climbed down a little and raised her head to add: "By the way, you were excellent last night, I like it very much, continue next time." ”

After saying that, Mia quickly got down from the tree, and ran away in a blink of an eye.

Suddenly, Li Chaoyang felt that something was wrong, why was Mia in a hurry to leave before she got the phone? Reaching out and touching it, the pocket was empty.

There is no doubt that the battery was stolen by Mia.

And it was when they had just fought the monkeys together, and it was never a shame for pirates to steal, in their opinion, it was a means of survival. Mia stole the battery without Li Chaoyang being aware of it, which shows that she is already a veteran.

Li Chaoyang was calculated by her again, and she must have gone to the cannibal tribe to find a satellite phone at this time.

Looking at the steep cliff, Li Chaoyang was a little impatient, he didn't have Mia's skills, a blind attempt was to die, and the only way was to climb the rock.

Although Li Chaoyang was very angry, but he quickly calmed down, and he had to calm down, he lay down at the entrance of the cave and observed carefully, found a few protrusions and cracks on the cliff wall, determined the route of travel, and then he picked up an aluminum kettle and hung it on his body, the kettle can be used to hold water, and the strap of the kettle can also be used as a rope when necessary.

Li Chaoyang took a deep breath and adjusted his breathing, flipped down the hole, his body was close to the cliff, and his fingers picked at the cracks and protrusions and slowly descended. The experience of long-term wilderness adventures came in handy at this moment, it was not the first time he had been like rock climbing, he was familiar with it, and he quickly regained his senses, his movements became more and more proficient, and the speed of descent became faster and faster.

The mountains of Elysium Island have been attacked by wind and rain for a long time, and there are a large number of depressions and fissures, and there are many focus points, and some stone crevices that cannot be inserted by fingers can just be pinned with daggers.

In less than five minutes, Li Chaoyang successfully descended to the ground.

At the moment of landing, Li Chaoyang was relieved, took a little breath and immediately rushed to the tribe, on the way, Li Chaoyang thought of the bamboo raft he took when he came, which was hidden on the seashore opposite the deep-water river, and he didn't know if it had been washed away after the storm of the past two days.

When Li Chaoyang came to the river, Mia had already run away, and most of them had already crossed the river.

After two days of heavy rain, the water level of the deep water river has risen a lot, and the originally clear river water has become particularly turbid, and all the aquatic plants in the river have been washed away.

Li Chaoyang had to go into the water from the estuary, and when he thought of the big octopus in the water, he couldn't help but feel a pang of anxiety in his heart, and the speed was naturally a lot faster.

After going ashore, Li Chaoyang trotted all the way to the cannibal camp, and when he got closer, he slowed down.

The tribe was quiet, all the houses were burned down, only the charred black stones remained, the unburned wood stood alone in the middle of the houses, the former human garbage, the discarded hoods, the iron sheets, became the furniture and daily necessities of the natives, and now they were abandoned again, abruptly placed among the ruins.

The wooden pillar in the center of the platform still stands, and this once most sacred place has been completely abandoned at this moment, telling its story and sorrow.

The corpses of pirates and cannibals were now all white bones, ripped all over the ground by animals. It's only been two days, and the corpses have been eaten up by animals before they have time to decompose, and the ground is littered with footprints, vultures, felines, and some that are apparently left by monkeys.

Maybe the group of monkeys before was in a hurry to eat the corpse, and they happened to run into Li Chaoyang and them.

Li Chaoyang glanced around and didn't find Mia's figure, so he picked up a cannibal spear and cautiously moved towards the platform in the middle.

The crack in the stone where the satellite phone was hidden was still there, and the outside was still stuffed with small stones.

Li Chaoyang couldn't hide the excitement in his heart, strode forward and quickly pulled out the small stone, and when he looked down, the whole person was stunned as if he had been struck by lightning.

The satellite phone is gone!

He thought he had seen it wrong, blinked his eyes, and pulled out all the mud and sand inside, and the satellite phone was really gone.

How is this possible? Li Chaoyang remembers very clearly, the satellite phone is hidden here, why is it missing?
