Zheng Jun was quite annoyed when he woke up, not because he had the gas to get up, but because he was worried that he had missed the time again and put out the campfire. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

You know, the deer that was eaten over had already been thrown into the river by Zheng Jun and floated away, and the lack of food stimulated the animals to instinctively stay away from the flames. As long as the campfire is not extinguished, there is no need to worry about being attacked by predators after falling asleep. In the past few days, Zheng Jun would occasionally oversleep and get to the point where the campfire burned out and went out. Once, I even woke up when I was touched by an animal like a bobcat to the edge of the tent. Fortunately, the other party was quite timid, and Zheng Jun woke up and made a slight move, so he fled.

Of course, such a situation is quite unfavorable for Zheng Jun, who has to wake up regularly every night to check the campfire and replenish fuel. As a result, his sleep quality deteriorated, and he had to sleep longer to protect his health, which made him spend less time on the road each day.

The situation can be greatly improved if there is a companion, and simply taking turns keeping vigils can give both of them a better night's sleep. It's a pity that Zheng Jun didn't dare to expose the secret of the crossing easily, and he wasn't sure if he would be able to take others with him. As a result, there is a reliable companion to keep vigil, and this kind of good thing can only be longed for in the heart.

Because he had a similar experience before, when Zheng Jun woke up when he heard the voice, his first thought was that the campfire had gone out again. However, the light that came through the tent refuted him well, and it suddenly surprised him.

In the wild, smaller rays of light attract a variety of creatures, but firelight appears too bright and only keeps most animals away. Almost only humans actively approach open flames.

Although it was guessed that someone was approaching him, Zheng Jun didn't plan to go over and give them a hug directly, after all, he hadn't slept to the point of being stupid.

Zheng Jun picked up his bow and gently slipped out of the tent, he moved so deep that he was almost on all fours, his weight forward, and only occasionally propped up the ground with his hands to make sure he didn't fall to the ground. This pose is from a book and is said to be a very practical tactical pose. Zheng Jun practiced for a long time to master, and when he ran like this, he was not only fast, but also able to make very little sound.

He didn't stupidly approach the other party directly, but quietly made a big circle, only to find that the other party's speed was quite slow, and by the time he had all gone around behind the other party, they hadn't even reached the edge of the camp.

Looking from behind, you can see two black shadows, although they are also slightly bent, but they can still be faintly seen.

Zheng Jun followed behind them, silent, ready to see their plans first.

From a distance, the two of them were estimated to be about 160cm tall, and they were still wearing fur clothes, and they didn't have anything on their hands that could be used as weapons. This is also one of the reasons why Zheng Jun did not take the initiative to attack, after all, people are social animals, no matter how homely Zheng Jun is, he hopes to communicate with people after being alone for more than ten days. Even if you don't understand each other's language, you can understand each other with gestures. As long as the other party came with a friendly purpose, Zheng Jun planned to live in peace with them, and maybe he could inquire where to find the mammoth.

The two were also very cautious, hiding at the edge of the camp and observing for a long time before daring to approach slowly. The purpose of these two men was so simple that they could be said to be stupid, they neither rummaged through objects nor tried to find food, they just squatted down and started a fire.

If the purpose of their approach was to roast the fire, then such a simple person, Zheng Jun thought that there was almost no need to test, and he could directly use it to keep vigil with confidence.

Confirming that the two had no ill intentions, Zheng Jun put the bow on his back, his hands were free, put them on his chest, stood up and approached slowly in a peaceful posture as much as possible. As a result, the two of them were so focused that they didn't even notice him, which was a bit embarrassing. As a last resort, Zheng Jun had no choice but to cough, hoping to attract attention.

The sound of coughing coming from behind in the dead of night will not make people feel unresponsive in any era. If you really encounter this situation when you are crouching, you should generally rush forward and observe the situation after running a certain distance. If you're going to look behind you while running, you're likely to fall into a mess like these two people.

A cough in the darkness obviously brought great fright to the two of them, but they didn't know that they frightened Zheng Jun a lot either.

Zheng Jun had only been able to see their backs before, but now he waited for them to fall into a ball before he could see them completely through the campfire.

Zheng Jun thought that these two people were wearing fur clothes, but then he realized that they were actually two people with lush hair all over their bodies. Only the facial fur is less, revealing the face, and the facial features of these two people look more like apes than human beings. If the next movie of Rise of the Planet of the Apes is filmed, these two people can participate without even makeup.

The two "men" kept retreating in horror even when they fell to the ground, and Zheng Jun had to raise his free hands as high as he could, trying to calm them, and finally almost put on a posture of surrender.

After surrendering to these two people, in order to calm them down, almost all of Zheng Jun's patience was exhausted, and it was best to finally use a few compressed biscuits to transform the two "people" from a state of panic.

Zheng Jun still plans to try to communicate with the two. In his opinion, this kind of ape-man should be the same period as the Yuanmou ape-man. At least compared with the Yuanmou ape-man restoration map he had seen, the difference between the two is not too big, and I believe that at least there is the possibility of communication.

Whether it is for animals or people, sharing food is the clearest gesture of friendliness. If you see that Chinese people are still talking about things at the dinner table, you can know how much impact this kind of friendly expression has on human beings.

The two ape-men are a man and a woman, and Zheng Jun finds this but is not sure whether they are a couple, nor whether they have a sense of family. After they finished eating a few biscuits in a few clicks, they began to look at Zheng Jun curiously, and he had no choice but to let go of his search. He took a stone and drew the outline of a mammoth directly on the ground, and took out a biscuit and compared it to the portrait, at least to make sure that the two of them connected the food to the mammoth.

Regardless of how the two ape-men understood it, at least they immediately showed the appearance of trying to take Zheng Jun somewhere. I really didn't know how to express to them the intention of setting off after dawn, so Zheng Jun had to pack up his things and rush with them overnight.

As they departed, the two ape-men took a few thicker branches from the campfire and used them as torches, and carefully guarded them from extinguishing. Apparently these ape-men have been able to use fire, or at least have the consciousness to preserve it.

Zheng Jun followed the ape-man on the grassland, originally worried that he would not find his way back. It turned out that they were still walking downstream along the river. Since he didn't have to worry about getting lost after being discharged from the hospital, he had the patience to follow the ape-man with peace of mind.

They walked for several hours, even after dawn, before they reached their destination. Not knowing how the two apes understood what he meant, Zheng Jun found that he had been taken to an ape-man settlement.
