Chapter 10 Begins
It is a fact that what is difficult for them is not the difficulty of climbing, but more of the sudden attack of poisonous snakes during the climbing.
"And when are we leaving?" Toma glanced back at Tokara and couldn't help asking.
“... Tomorrow! ”
Tokara thought for a moment, and then answered, he looked down, and then looked at the torches in the hands of several people now: "The night is not conducive to action, and we can't go down with torches, so let's find a place nearby first, and rest for a while." ”
Then they searched around. Of course, there was no absolutely safe place nearby, so you had to settle in a cave relatively closely, and first light some bonfires outside the cave, and fill it with enough firewood to burn for a night.
"I'll keep watch, you rest first." After preparing everything, Tokara looked at the crowd and said.
Naturally, they can't just go to sleep with their heads turned upside down, they have to leave someone to watch, just in case?
"I'll take over in the middle of the night." Tuoma glanced back at Tuo Kara, and took the initiative to share the burden for Tuo Kara, of course, Tuo Kara did not object, nodded and agreed.
After taking care of everything, Tokara was left alone to look at the falling clouds in the sky, and the others went to rest.
The cool mountain breeze blew from time to time, occasionally blowing into the cave, blowing away some of the anxiety in their hearts and allowing them to fall asleep faster.
There was no speech all night, but Amanda had a dream in which a girl who didn't know her name looked at him with a smile and wanted to tell him something.
But he couldn't hear it, and he couldn't see the girl's appearance clearly, but the red scene behind it was reflected on her body, making the petite and beautiful figure even more distant, far away from her.
Besides, she's not human, and if those ears and tail aren't ornamental, she's an orc girl.
Eventually, however, his mind wandered and he flew somewhere else, where he finally led the Roys to the icy land of Luowu.
Bite!
Activate the quest, the relic of the ancestors...
························
The next day...
A ray of sunlight shone on the earth, and according to the angle of the sun rising, it was about seven o'clock when Amanda woke up.
Because there was a cover of a bonfire, and it was an extraordinary period, and there was no thrill in the night, Yaluo Zhang held his hand and yawned, and looked at Amanda: "Awake?" ”
Amanda nodded.
"Here, I've picked some fruit, you can eat it first." Then, out of nowhere, Yarrow pulled out bunches of grapes.
The fruit was cold and cold, with some dew on it, and the green and red ones were obviously not fully ripe. But...
"You can't eat the dead." Yarrow picked one first and filled his stomach, and at the same time did not forget to say to Amanda.
"I'm not pretentious." Amanda, however, took the grape from Yarrow without hesitation, then picked one and wiped it twice, then threw it in her mouth and chewed it.
"Alright, let's go." At this time, Tuokala, who had been resting later, also woke up and reminded everyone.
"Alright, let's go!" The others were naturally the same, nodded and walked out of the cave one after another.
The cave they were looking for was only a few hundred meters from the canyon at most, so they soon arrived at their destination, but on the way, several old hunters also picked some fruit to satisfy their hunger.
It's also the season when the fruit is ripe, otherwise they will have to raise the fire and roast the meat.
I came to the canyon again, but I still used a dozen rattans to make three ropes in advance as a guarantee of safety.
Although they are all climbing veterans, they still need to prepare for the necessary measures, and it won't take much time anyway.
The tribe is not large in number, and they are not allowed to have any accidents and sacrifice one person in the forest, then the danger they face in the future will be even greater.
Instigation!
"You're all set."
After a section of the rope was tied to a large tree a few meters away, Tuoka pulled the rope and said.
"Well, it's pretty sturdy." Croton smiled when he heard this, and also said with a pull of the rope.
"Well, be careful, don't play yourself to death here." Tuokara reminded everyone one last time.
"Of course." Toma and Croton said at the same time.
Their lives are their own, of course they won't be sloppy in this, don't look at Croton who doesn't care, it's all for the sake of watching.
"By the way, Uncle Tokara, do you think there are any other intelligent beings in this world?" Seeing that several people were about to go down, Amanda suddenly followed up and asked.
"Well..."Tuokara thought for a moment, and then said, "I don't know, and there is no record of it in the tribe, so it stands to reason that we are the only intelligent creatures in this world." ”
"Has anyone ever reached the bottom of this canyon?"
Saying so, he still remembered the dream last night, according to the research of mysterious phenomena in the previous life, he was thinking about that dream, and then looking at this canyon as it was unnatural.
At this time, he didn't realize that the system had sent him an extra task, otherwise it would have been even more unnatural.
"Nope."
After thinking for a while, Tuokara gave the answer: "Although it is recorded in the tribe that there were ancestors who wanted to know what was at the bottom of the canyon for some reasons, but after climbing more than a thousand meters below, they still didn't look like they wanted to the end, so they gave up. ”
More than 1,000 meters, according to the floor buildings on the earth, this height is basically four or five hundred floors, and the canyon is likely to be much more than this thousand meters.
"It seems that if I have the opportunity in the future, I will have to get some things to find out here." Amanda made up her mind.
Although the dream last night didn't really mean anything, even if he didn't think about it, he was curious about the situation below the canyon.
This is basically the habit of every scientist, full of curiosity about anything unknown, and science is a history of inquiry.
After that, the three of them finally did not hesitate, slowly exposed half of their bodies, and crawled to the bottom of the cliff. There were some rocks falling off along the way, but everyone's hands were steady, and years of experience allowed them to find the best route in an instant.
On the cliffs, the occasional roots of some plants would grow, which also made it easier for them, so soon they came to a hundred meters away.
