In the dimly lit cave, the chief hung his head and said in a low voice after a moment: "Fortunately, a batch of food was exchanged from the Kurosawa tribe...... It can last for a while. ”

Wu sighed and didn't speak.

"How could these murderous creatures suddenly come to our east? The chief frowned in thought.

Wu didn't answer.

Chief: "More than thirty years ago, a huge herd of giant beasts migrated from far away and passed through the western part of Blackridge, forcing the fierce creatures there to flee to our side for refuge, maybe this time it was also because the giant beasts were about to migrate on a large scale?"

"By the way, I remember Putai said that on the way to the Kurosawa tribe last time, I also encountered a small herd of giant beasts!"

Wu pondered for a moment: "It shouldn't be, the large-scale group of giant beasts migrates regularly, and when they pass through the west, the ground to our east will feel a slight tremor, and I don't feel it this time." ”

"The tremor was very mild...... Could it be that we have neglected?" asked the chief, unwillingly.

Wu looked at him with a clear look: "Are you afraid that there may be a drought on the west side of Blackridge, so you caused the murderous creatures to come to our side?"

The chief let out a breath of turbidity and said, "If that is the case, the tribe will be miserable, they will have to wait until the rainy season arrives before they can leave, and it is only the middle of the dry season." If we haven't been able to go into the jungle to hunt, what will the tribesmen eat, and now we don't have enough food to consume. ”

The chief paced uneasily: "What is the reason for this......"

Sometimes, it's the unknown danger that is the most terrifying.

The tribe is seeing improvement, but it is about to face this crisis again......

Wu said indifferently: "Do your best, obey the destiny of heaven." The ancestors will bless us. ”

After that, he instructed: "Pay attention to stabilize the mood of the people. ”

The chieftain looked solemn: "Yes, I see." ”

The two whispered a few more words before parting, and the back of the old man Wu slowly disappeared into the depths of the cave, engulfed in darkness. The chief wiped his face with his hand, and his anxious expression disappeared suddenly, leaving only composure, and then walked out.

Ye Xi quietly left the corner.

The chief walked out of the mouth of the cave, pondered for a moment, and waved a warrior.

Ye Xi stood not far away and noticed this scene.

He knew this warrior, he was dexterous and adept at concealing himself, and he was responsible for finding his way when hunting teams were hunting. He was also in the team of warriors who went to the Kurosawa Trade Fair last time, because the information he brought helped the team avoid danger several times.

Ye Xi pretended to walk not far away casually, pricking up his ears to listen to their conversation.

His five senses were stronger than they thought they would, and they thought the distance was safe, but he could hear it.

Chief: "The jungle will become more and more dangerous in the future, and we must not go into it then...... The tribe hasn't been fetching water for a while, the water tank has been empty for several times, you go to the lake today to have a look, if it's safe there, we'll go to the lake today to get some water. ”

I don't know how long this turmoil will take, and the more prepared things like water, the better.

The warrior nodded solemnly.

The chief repeatedly instructed: "Be careful, be careful to hide your whereabouts, and come back as soon as you notice too many murderous things on the road!"

"Yes!" the warrior commanded, armed with his weapon, and his nimble figure fading into the jungle.

in the open space.

The tribesmen were restless, some were polishing their bone tools, and some were making tools.

Ye Xi had nothing to do, so he took a piece of wood, sat at the mouth of the cave, and decided to make a teacup by himself.

The sawdust was scraped up by the bone knife and fell to the ground, and as time passed, a crude wooden cup embryo gradually took shape.

The sun is setting in the west.

There were more and more wooden cups on the ground beside Ye Xi, and they were lined up one after another, and their shapes ranged from crude to barely visible.

Ye Xi held the embryo of a wooden cup in his hand, and absentmindedly began to carve patterns on the body of the cup.

He kept an eye on what was going on outside.

It's been so long...... The warrior hasn't come back yet?

Ye Xi put down the wooden cup and looked at the chief who was standing not far away, looking at the jungle.

The chief's face looked calm, but a closer look revealed the anxiety hidden in his eyes.

Until the end of supper, when everyone put out the fire and walked into the cave, the warrior still did not appear.

The rocks rumbled slowly to block the entrance to the cave, and Ye Xi looked at the dark night that was gradually obscured in the cracks, and his heart was heavy.

The next day.

Soon it was discovered that the warrior was missing.

The chief told everyone the truth.

Everyone was sad, and they all knew that the warrior would not come back. But no one blamed the chiefs.

After all, they didn't expect that the jungle would become so dangerous that even the best fighters at stealth would be killed.

But there is good news in the midst of all the bad news, and that is that their trap has successfully captured a strange beast.

This fierce creature was covered in spikes with its blue-faced fangs and looked very difficult to deal with, but at this moment, it was pierced through its body by the spikes in the trap, and it was staring at it and dying through it.

The trap worked.

The crowd took the strange monster out of the trap and re-covered the trap.

With this successful case, everyone has hope, and they work together to dig a few more traps.

Now the tribe has to conserve food, and if the trap can catch a few more prey, it can also alleviate the need for food.

............

On the third day, two ferocious creatures fell into the trap.

On the fourth day, a huge murderous creature stepped directly through the trap and broke into the open space to attack people, but because the stinger on his foot was cut, he fell to the ground and died of poison after a few blows.

On the fifth day, the sixth day, the monsters in the trap became more and more powerful and weird. In the evening, there was an eerie roar in the jungle.

On the seventh day, a pure-blooded beast broke into the tribe, but fortunately, Putai had recovered by then, and together with the chieftain, plus Wu was on the side to bless the warriors, the three of them joined forces to hunt down the pure-blooded beast. By this time, the terrifying beast roars in the jungle had become more and more frequent.

On the tenth day, the heart-wrenching roars of beasts in the jungle were already coming and going, and the roars of some of the fierce creatures were very close to the tribe, and when the roar sounded, the child was bleeding directly from his eyes and nose, and was gagged by his father Eminem, and hurriedly carried to the depths of the cave.

On the fifteenth day, all the tribesmen did not even dare to go out of the cave, so they blocked the entrance of the cave with huge stones, and shrank in the cave, listening in horror to the roars of various beasts outside the cave.

Sometimes, from a wall away, you can hear the sound of a fierce fight between the murderous creatures.

Day 20.

The food stored in the cellar began to bottom out, and on this very day, some of the fierce creatures began to push up the rocks and try to break in.

All the warriors stood behind the rocks and managed to stop the attack.

The tribesmen have been terrified these days, and after being in the dark cave for so long, there is finally a child who can't stand it anymore.

A child desperately covered his ears to resist the roar of the beast, and asked his Eminem tremblingly, "Eminem, when will they leave!"

Their Eminem didn't know either, so he had to comfort: "I'll leave soon, I'll leave soon." ”

On the night of the twentieth day, Jiaojiao suddenly became extremely agitated, constantly swimming around the cave, trying to get out of the cracks in the rocks, and when Ye Xi pulled his tail back, he bared his teeth at him irritably.

The little flower that was moved to the cave by Ye Xi was also very noisy, it was originally hungry for a few days and seemed listless, but it was full of energy and walked around the entrance of the cave with a few small roots, and it didn't make a snorting sound, just wanted to get out of the cave.

They're starving these days.

After all, the tribe has limited food, and even people are going hungry, so naturally they can't take care of their food, and the food given to them can only ensure that they don't starve to death.

Ye Xi thought they were going out to find food, but he just comforted them and threw them back.

As a result, on the morning of the twenty-first day, the terrifying roar of the beast outside the cave suddenly disappeared.

There was silence outside the cave.

It's also quiet inside the cave.

It's so quiet that everyone can hear their own heartbeat.

All the murderous creatures seemed to disappear overnight.

The chief's eyes were solemn, and he looked at the rock blocking the entrance of the cave as if he saw some kind of desolate beast.

"Wait, don't move the stone right away. ”

The wait was until the afternoon, and it was still quiet outside the cave.

The chief asked all the tribesmen to hide in the depths of the cave, and then, together with Yong and a few other warriors, slowly moved the boulder himself.
