No, in less than three days, almost all the places where it was necessary to install "rat guards" were installed with such nondescript doors.

However, the information about the origin of those rats and their nests has not been found, and there has been no progress, which makes Hongxia'er very puzzled.

What's even more amazing is that nothing like this has happened since that night attack of rats, as if it had never happened.

Over time, Hongxia'er slowly forgot about it.

About a month later, Hongxia'er Cottage encountered a strange thing again, different from the two incidents of "baboon cavalry" and "night attack of rats", this time it was the apes who imitated humans to use sticks to beat fox friends and dogs, so that they were powerless to resist, so they had to hug their heads and run away in embarrassment.

What's going on here?

It turned out that a wild dog field team of Hongxia'er found a black-haired ape that was fleeing for its life in panic and was seriously injured and almost fell into a coma. Feeling compassionate, they came to the rescue, saving the injured black-haired ape and stopping the other five black-haired apes who were chasing him.

Unexpectedly, the five black-haired apes were furious, and they actually broke off the thick branches of the wine glasses from the nearby trees and used them as sticks, and beat them at the field members.

However, Hongxia'er's hunting team is "outnumbered", there are hundreds of them, and the other party only has a few, no matter how powerful it is, it is also overwhelming.

It didn't take long for the black-haired apes to gradually lose their physical strength, and they were finally outnumbered, and finally had to break through and escape.

The captain of the field team sent several wild dogs to escort the injured black-haired ape to the cottage for treatment, while the rest of the field team members stayed behind to continue the hunt.

At about three o'clock in the afternoon, suddenly, everyone noticed that a large group of birds in the woods in front of them flapped their wings and flew up one after another, and screamed in the air.

The thought of "there must be a situation" flashed into everyone's minds.

After a while, I saw the branches and leaves in this forest shaking violently, from far to near, one after another. Soon a large group of black-haired apes jumped down from the trees, all running with sticks and rushing towards the field team.

It turned out that the group of black-haired apes had swung from one tree to another, and had rushed over from the "air corridor" of the woods.

When they encounter vine plants, they hang from the vines, look in the right direction, and swing from vine to vine like a swing. And when there are few vines and plants where they can't grasp it, they go straight to the high-altitude passage and grab the branches and jump from one tree to another.

In this way, they move very fast, far faster than they can advance on the ground avoiding the thorns. This is the unique activity ability of apes.

Just now, the wild dogs had learned the power of these black-haired apes with sticks, and now when they saw that the other party had come to so many black-haired apes with sticks at once, they suddenly felt cold sweat on their bodies, and their backs were cold.

After the shock, everyone immediately realized that a catastrophe was coming.

If you can't win, run. Without saying a word, the wild dogs turned and ran back desperately, hating themselves for running too slowly......

When Hong Xia'er heard the news, she was stunned.

This is really a "bad year"! Why did Hongxia'er's tribe encounter such strange things one after another this year?

According to feudal superstition, this may be her destiny to have these calamities.

However, according to Confucianism, it is a test of God to see if she is capable of coping with big challenges, and whether she is suitable to be the leader of this group of fox friends and dogs.

At present, these stick-wielding black-haired apes are extremely difficult to deal with, they have a simple weapon similar to that of ancient humans, clubs, and they are able to walk and fly on trees. If you win, they will fight you on the ground; If they can't win, they will run away from the tree. It's really "flexible up and down, free to advance and retreat".

For such a cunning and difficult enemy, Hongxia'er is really at a loss at the moment, and there is no way at all.

Just then, a female fox messenger came in and reported to her that the black-haired ape, who had been injured and unconscious, had been carefully treated by the "barefoot doctor" Red-haired Daddy, and had now woken up.

Hongxia'er hurriedly set off with the signal corps to inspect the wounded.

In the red-haired father's cave infirmary, she saw a black-haired ape with rat eyes, dripping eyes, and a thief's head and brain, yawning on a dirt bed paved with hay.

Obviously, this is definitely a relatively intelligent and clever black-haired ape, maybe it is now playing some small ninety-nine abacus in its heart.

When the red-haired father saw Hongxia'er coming, he hurriedly gave a brief introduction to Hongxia'er and the black-haired ape.

Although Red-Haired Daddy is a red-haired savage, he also knows a thing or two about the language of apes and apes.

However, for Hongxia'er, who knows thousands of languages of various animals and insects (Feifei was instilled with this knowledge by the scientists on this planet when he first arrived on this planet, see 'Chapter 6 Soul Transplant'), she is naturally familiar with the language of the black haired ape, and there is no language communication barrier.

Hongxia'er walked up to the black-haired ape and asked what its name was and where did it come from?

The black-haired ape said intermittently, its name was "Slip Fast", and it came from a peach blossom source "Water Curtain Cave" in the West Mountain, about one or two hundred miles away from here in the southwest? The climate is suitable, the peach trees are full of trees, and the peach blossoms in full bloom are like large pink clouds, which is extremely beautiful. There are many black-haired apes living in the Water Curtain Cave.

Their tribal leader, named "Tired Scream", under his leadership, everyone is keen to practice martial arts—they dance with guns and sticks, and almost every day they have to lie down and complain about their misery before resting. In addition, the tribe also has a system of "rewarding the good and punishing the lazy", and the winners will be awarded the honorary title of "Black Ape Warrior", and those who are lazy and slippery will be caught and beaten with rattan or sticks (commonly known as "slapping the board") as punishment.

In the evening, suddenly a fox messenger ran in and reported to Hongxia'er: "It's terrible. The black-haired ape has already broken through our two lines of defense, killed a dozen of our brothers, and is now attacking the third line of defense. ”

"Ahh It's worth it. Let's go, I'll take a look. Hongxia'er was taken aback, and hurriedly led everyone to run to the gate of the cottage outside the cave.

At the beginning, after Hongxia'er led the team to capture this cottage, a total of four lines of defense were built, the first three lines of defense were below the halfway up the mountain, and the last line of defense was at the gate of the cottage.

Now the enemy is already attacking the third line of defense, and if the line of defense is lost, only the last line of defense at the gate of this cottage will remain, which can really be described as a "war crisis".

Coming to the gate of the cottage, Hongxia'er really saw that at the third line of defense halfway down the mountain, the enemy and us were engaged in a fierce battle.

More than a dozen of our "fox friends and dog friends" condescended to guard the key places, and threw stones down from the high places to block the attack of the black-haired ape.
