【056】Cave
Shen Nong and the others walked on the rocky mountain with their bodies low, bending their legs as much as possible to hide their bodies behind the rocks to prevent them from being spotted by the white-bearded apes that might appear at any time.
Shen Nong followed behind Chi and kept looking around curiously, hoping to find the trace of the white-whiskered ape, but everywhere he looked, there were all bare stones, not to mention the white-whiskered ape, not even a single monkey hair.
"Chi, did you find it?" Shen Nong couldn't help but ask.
"There shouldn't be one here, if you get close to the white-whiskered ape's lair, you can clearly hear their cries, this fierce beast is very noisy. Chi looked back and said.
The two continued their climb up the hill, and after a thorough search of the area, they finally found the lair they had been looking for in a rocky area.
I saw that this was a gentle mountainside, and three boulders had set up a cave on the hillside, and the cave was unusually dark, and I could only hear a lot of noise coming from it, but I couldn't see anything inside.
This area is directly facing the wind outlet, and whenever a gust of wind blows on the mountainside, there will be a 'woo' sound in the cave, which sounds very terrible.
Shen Nong and Chi hid behind a boulder more than twenty steps away from the cave, just poking their heads out slightly to look at the white-whiskered ape's lair.
"Listening to this sound, it looks like there are a lot of monkeys inside. Shen Nong couldn't help but say.
"There are a lot of white-whiskered apes living in the white-whiskered ape's lair, and if they find out that one of their people is attacked, the whole group will go out and work together to defeat the enemy, which is very dangerous. Chi said seriously.
He didn't want Shen Nong to fight the idea of the white-bearded ape, because this group of monkeys was like a hornet's nest, as long as they stabbed it, something would happen immediately, and then the scene was not for fun, and even Chi himself didn't have the ability to leave alive under the siege of a group of white-whiskered apes, so he didn't want Shen Nong to take risks.
"Oh. Shen Nong nodded, he didn't care too much about Chi's words, he didn't plan to fight against a whole group of white-bearded apes, the reason why he let Chi You take himself up the mountain to find the white-bearded ape's lair this time is to see what the white-whiskered ape's nest looks like and whether there is any room for operation, and secondly, he also wants to try his luck and see if he can pick up a leak, meet one or two white-whiskered apes who are alone and go out alone, and then attack and assassinate them to get the flesh and blood of the fierce beast.
The terrain of the white-bearded ape's nest in front of him made Shen Nong very satisfied, because the entrance of this nest was just right on the tuyere, and only when the wind blew, it would immediately pour all of it into the cave, giving it a ventilation effect.
This effect is naturally very comfortable for the white-bearded apes living in the cave, but at the same time, it also brings a trace of hidden danger to the cave.
And this hidden danger happens to be the space that Shen Nong can operate!
"Wu, now that you have seen the lair of the white-bearded ape, let's hurry up, otherwise if a white-bearded ape discovers us, we may never be able to leave this stone mountain again. Chi shook his head left and right and looked around, and said very jealously.
However, Shen Nong set his eyes all on the cave, the nest of the white-bearded ape was formed by three huge stones in the shape of a 'vulture' stacked together, and above the nest, there were many gravels of different sizes, these gravels were small fists or so, and the large volume was comparable to the body of an adult, and a large pile of scattered gravel was pressed on top of the cave, which made people worry about whether they would suddenly roll down all of them.
Shen Nong looked at the gravel thoughtfully, and a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, and he laughed very meaningfully: "I have a way." ”
"What's the solution?" asked Chi suspiciously.
"The way to wipe out all the white-whiskered apes in this cave. Shen Nong smiled confidently: "It seems that we can go back early this time when we go out hunting." ”
"Huh?" was stunned, he didn't understand the meaning of Shen Nong's words at all.
And Shen Nong didn't have the intention of explaining to him now, because the plan that suddenly formed in his heart was not something that could be explained clearly at a moment, and instead of wasting time to explain to Chi, it was better to implement the plan first.
"Let's go, let's go down the mountain first, and after we get what we need, we'll sneak up at night. Shen Nong patted Chi on the shoulder and said, and then retreated towards the mountain road he had come from.
Chi looked at the nest of the white-bearded ape, and then looked at Shen Nong's back, scratching his head in confusion, he didn't know what kind of medicine Shen Nong's gourd was selling, so he had to follow Shen Nong lightly and left this place.
After descending the mountain, Shen Nong took the grasshopper everywhere in the forest to look for weeds that could be burned, and the efficiency of the grasshopper was very high, and soon a large number of weeds were found, and the number could be piled up into a half-human-high grass pile.
Shen Nong was not idle while looking for weeds, he easily pulled out two thicker branches and a piece of rotten wood from a dead tree whose body had decayed to a certain extent.
"It's up to you to kill those white-whiskered apes at night. Shen Nong looked at the branches and wood in his hand and said to himself.
......
Before you know it, the moon hangs in the treetops.
The forest was quietly plunged into darkness, and the whole forest was silent, and sometimes the sound of insects and beasts roaring came from afar, symbolizing that the forest was still dangerous at night.
Looking at the pitch-black sky overhead, Shen Nong climbed down from a big tree and said to Chi, "It's time to start moving, we'll take these weeds up the mountain now." ”
He then jumped down from the treetops and carried behind the foot of the tree a large bundle of weeds that he had already packed with animal tendons.
"Wu, does this really work?"
"Rest assured, as long as everything goes according to my plan, the outcome will definitely be successful. Shen Nong said confidently.
The two of them followed the previous method, and Chi climbed the mountain wall first, and then put down the animal tendons and pulled Shen Nong up.
Shen Nong was also carrying a bundle of weeds on his back, but this weight was nothing to Chi, and his arms pulled Shen Nong's whole person up very easily.
After collecting the weeds, Shen Nong and Chi climbed to the treetops of the big tree in order to wait for the night to come, and in the process of waiting, Shen Nong also roughly told Chi Ting about his plan, so that he knew what to do when he went up the mountain, so as not to cover his eyes with his hands and touch the dark.
