Chapter 7: Fear

Just as he was about to climb down the vine, he suddenly saw the grass in the distance move, and a wooden stick tied to a sharp stone stick.

Qin Yue suddenly became vigilant, this was a stone spear, a product of the Stone Age. The soles of her feet moved slightly, and she duly burrowed into the dense vines and foliage covering, carefully holding her breath.

After a while, several figures emerged from the grass. They were thin and hairless, but their faces were covered with beards, their hair was long and frizzy, and they were naked with their upper bodies, which were hastily covered by animal skins.

They all held a stone spear in their hands, and several of them had a mountain of stone spears stained with bright red blood.

The leader looked around fiercely, and when he saw that there was no threat, he waved his hand and shouted, and several more people came out of the grass one after another, and he led them towards the giant tree.

After coming to this jungle for so many days, seeing a human being for the first time, Qin Yue didn't know whether to be happy or sad? This group of people looked like primitive people in the Stone Age, looking weird and sloppy, Qin Yue was stunned in his heart, could they really have traveled to the Neolithic Age?

The first time she saw a human being, Qin Yue didn't have the intimacy of a fellow countryman seeing a fellow countryman, and her intuition told her that this group of primitive people was very dangerous.

She was still hiding in the tree and was motionless.

A group of more than a dozen primordial people gathered under the giant tree, just below Qin Yue, and she became more and more afraid to move.

The leader didn't know what he was saying, so a few primitive people left here, the rest of the people moved a few large stones, and another primitive man rubbed a wooden branch, apparently drilling wood to make fire.

Qin Yue stared at their methodical movements, and gained a new understanding of primitive people, who not only learned the use of tools, but also the division of labor and cooperation.

Soon, sparks appeared, they lit a fire, and the few primitives who had left also returned with firewood.

The man in the lead took a large piece of meat from the skin bag and threw it on the fire to roast it, and then took another small piece from the skin bag and threw it into the fire.

Qin Yue couldn't see what it was, so she carefully climbed to the gap between the branches and leaves and looked down.

She opened her eyes wide and covered her mouth in horror to keep herself from making a sound.

She saw that what was burning in the fire was a palm-like thing, and her distinct fingers told her that it was not the palm of an animal!

They eat human flesh!

Coming to this conclusion, she could no longer suppress the horror in her heart, and she was extremely glad that she did not cry out enthusiastically when she saw a human being, but hid herself, otherwise she would not be able to imagine what would happen to her.

She couldn't help but take a few steps back, startling the branches next to her, making a subtle noise.

The leading primitives suddenly raised their heads, and their fierce and sharp eyes stared at Qin Yue's hiding place.

At this moment, several frightened birds fluttered their wings and flew up from the dense branches and leaves, and the leading primitive man stared at it for a while with doubts in his eyes before he shifted his gaze.

During this period, Qin Yue kept covering her mouth tightly, not daring to make a single sound.

The leading primitive man began to divide the roasted half-cooked meat among the others, and then took the charred palm from the fire and sat down on the stone to nibble on it.

Qin Yue's stomach was full of sour water, barely suppressing the nausea and fear in his heart, and he opened his eyes and stopped looking.

I don't know how long it took, Qin Yue heard the sound of Suosuo, looked down, and saw that they had already packed up and were ready to leave.

Qin Yue patiently hid on top of the tree, and she was relieved until there was only a mess left under the tree. However, she did not show up rashly, but patiently watched the movement below.

After a while, I saw that the group of primitive people just now quietly turned back, observed around the tree, and looked up at the branches nearly ten meters above the ground, before trotting away, and the figure disappeared into the dense woods in front of them.

Qin Yue squatted weakly on the branch, and a cold sweat broke out on his body.

I didn't expect this group of barbaric primitives to be so suspicious, and I thought it was the movement just now that attracted the suspicion of the leading primitives, so I asked the primitives under him to check it again.

But she couldn't figure it out, why did they eat human flesh when they had animal meat to eat?

And they lived in this jungle? She had never seen a trace of human existence in this jungle before.

No, looking at their thin and short journeys after long journeys, and they were wary of this area, they obviously didn't live here.

Qin Yue secretly prayed in his heart that he would never run into them again.

She waited for a while, but there was no movement around her, and she descended from the tree along the vines.

Thinking that Liang Jian was still seriously injured and waiting for her, she couldn't stop being anxious, so she hurriedly picked up the back basket and loaded it with green fruits.

She put the basket on the other side of the tree, and the primitive people didn't pay attention to it, and the green fruit was an ordinary thing in the jungle.

However, she noticed that one of the green fruits had been poked with a stone spear, and the skin of the green fruit was solid, leaving only shallow marks.

Qin Yue was afraid in his heart, thinking that Liang Jian didn't dare to delay more, he walked back half as fast as he went, and quickly walked through the jungle and returned to the cave.

She put the basket on her shoulder on the floor of the cave and gasped for air.

Wiping the fine sweat on her forehead, she hurriedly went to see Liang Jian.

He hadn't woken up yet, but he was breathing much more evenly, and he didn't have any more fever, and she carefully changed the medicine on his wound.

A long golden glow shone through the cavern, slowly closing the last rays of afterglow.

Qin Yue looked at the sturdy Qingguo and made a difficulty, she used a lot of angular stones to smash it, but it couldn't be broken, it looked like a stinky stone that couldn't be penetrated by oil and salt.

Suddenly it occurred to her that there was a Mongolian knife, and she thought about giving it a try.

So she picked up the Mongolian knife, took a big stone, and cut a small hole in the center of the green fruit, and she poked it into her mouth with the Mongolian knife, and a crack appeared in an instant.

Qin Yue was overjoyed in his heart, and used a knife to pry it open, dividing the green fruit into two halves, which was very smooth.

The shell is about the width of a thumb, the inner layer is delicate and smooth, and half of the middle is empty. The other half was something wrapped in a thin sac, Qin Yue cut it with a knife, and saw that it was a flour-like thing, beige in color, very delicate.

Qin Yue didn't know if it was poisonous or not, so he didn't dare to try it easily, so he simply put aside the one with the fruit and took out the other half to prepare to boil the medicine.

She took the husks and scooped half a jar of water into the stream, threw a few dried herbs into it, put them on the stones, and put firewood under them to burn them for fire.

After the medicine was boiled, Qin Yue took the slightly hot decoction and looked at Liang Jian, who was sleeping unconscious, a little at a loss.

Such a big jar of medicine, you can't pour it raw!

She bit her lip, made up her mind, lifted the decoction and poured a big mouthful, reached out and pinched his cheeks to force him to open his mouth, lowered her head and pressed against Liang Jian's lips, and fed the decoction in her mouth into Liang Jian's mouth.

After feeding several mouthfuls in a row, more than half of the decoction in the husk was missing, and I thought that so much was enough, so I stopped.

Qin Yue was just thinking about feeding the medicine, and she didn't have the slightest thought, but now that she had finished feeding, she looked at Liang Jian's lips that were slightly soaked in medicinal juice, and her face flushed slightly.

It's pretty soft...... Qin Yue couldn't help but think.
