Chapter 7: The Savage Cave
Wang Yifei and Jian Ji have been following the savages for a long distance. The wild man finally stopped in front of a large mountain.
I saw the wild man roaring loudly twice at the mountain. And there was a response from the belly of the mountain. The savage's face seemed to be happy.
The savages came to the foot of the mountain. There is a huge rock at the foot of the mountain, which looks like an ordinary mountain rock. The wild man lifted the boulder, revealing a deep hole.
He turned around and yelled at the two of them twice, meaning to urge them to go in. The two of them had no choice but to enter the cave as they were told! The wild man then hugged the boulder and blocked the entrance to the cave again.
Wang Yifei and Jian Ji had an exchange. If the two are combined, even if the two work together. It is also far less than the strength of the savages. If the two of them make a rash move, it may be no different from looking for death! The two also discussed escaping, but this savage valley could not allow the two to escape quickly. The beasts of the valley are all the eyes of the savages, and there is really no escape.
What can be done now is only to take one step at a time. If the time comes for them to fight to the death, the two of them will fight again!Or, they may be able to find a way back from the savages. After all, looking at this wild man, his IQ is not low. And it's the native!
Wang Yifei and Jian Ji followed the wild man into the cave. After the initial discomfort, I was finally able to see. I saw that most of this cave was formed naturally, and all kinds of stalactites hung upside down in the cave. The cave extends in all directions, like a labyrinth of branches.
Wang Yifei and Jian Ji entered the cave and came to this big cave that spread out of many caves. I saw that in the center of this big hole, there were a lot of big sticks neatly placed, and a bad breath rippled out of these big sticks. And the wild man approached and put his own stick in the middle!
Wang Yifei was amazed. If it seems unlikely that these are all the sticks of the savages in front of you! Savages live together, and this is the tribe of savages!
Wang Yifei and Jian Ji met and smiled bitterly! A wild man is not something that two people can match, and another group of people. The two of them couldn't escape.
The wild man led the two of them towards one of the deepest branches.
I don't know how long I walked. There are branches in this hole, and these branches have been clearly worn recently! The two of them could not say much, and only cared about moving forward. The two estimated that no matter how far away this cave was, there should always be an end!
Thinking of the end, it seems that the end has already arrived. I saw that there were three large holes in the front of the road, which were obviously artificially pierced. The entrance of the cave is hung with vines, like a human gate.
When the wild man came to the big hole on the far left, he respectfully said this to the inside at the door. After a bit of babbling, the wild man led the two of them inside.
Wang Yifei quietly looked at the cave. The cave was not dark, and there was a moonlight-like glow that filled the cave. If you look closely, you will find that there are many fist-sized stones evenly inlaid in this cave, no less than a hundred. Wang Yifei remembered a treasure recorded in the Chronicle of Strange Things, moonstone.
The cave was so large that it was the size of more than ten houses combined. In the cave, there are stone tables, stone chairs, stone beds and other objects. There was a huge figure sitting at the stone table!
Wang Yifei retracted his thoughts, and came to the seated wild man with the sword killer.
"You, you, people?"
A voice that didn't look like a human voice sounded, Wang Yifei and Jian Ji were really startled! The wild man in front of him could speak?
Seeing that the two did not answer, the wild man slowly raised his head. I saw this wild man, a scar, hideous throughout the whole face! A spur of evil qi roared out!
"We are human beings, do you have anything to do?" Wang Yifei hurriedly replied.
"Literacy, words," the savage asked.
"Yes!" replied Wang Yifei.
...
Knowing that Wang Yifei was literate, the savage didn't ask anything more.
The savage who grabbed Wang Yifei and Jian Ji took the two out again at his behest. Just a short distance away, waiting.
Wang Yifei doesn't know how long it has been. About a day.
Wang Yifei and Jian Ji were once again brought to the three big holes. Only this time, I walked through the middle door.
This hole is half the size of the hole I went in last time. The light here is also brighter. Because in addition to the inlaid moonstone, there is a moonstone the size of a human head held by stalactites on the stone table!
There were three wildlings at the stone table, but only one of them was sitting in the middle, and one of the two wildlings standing next to him was the Scarface wildman from last time!
The savage who led the way came in and fell prostrate on the ground!
Wang Yifei looked at the wild man and was surprised to find that the wild man in the middle turned out to be a maternal wild man!
Wang Yifei finally understood!
Savages live in groups with a clear division of labor. The biggest of them is the mother of this group! This is a matriarchal society!
And the savages already have a lot of wisdom. Among the savages, there has been a culture of mutual communication between ethnic groups!
Compared to the entire group, the middle and lower class savages can communicate with each other. I also learned the way to resist beasts. And the high-level savages, or have mastered the language of humans!
Now, he has been captured in a cave, which can be said to be the core of the entire tribe. And the savages do. Then it must have something to do with what Scarface Savage asked himself!
Wang Yifei pondered, or this is a chance to leave!
Wang Yifei also respectfully performed a literati salute to the three savages. He believed that the wild man would understand the meaning!
Sure enough, the leader of the wildlings replied.
"Young man, don't be polite. Are you literate?" the leader of the wildlings no longer spoke much different from ordinary people.
"Yes, Chief. I have been learning Chinese since I was a child, and I already know how to read words. Wang Yifei replied modestly and firmly.
"You translate a book for us, and I'll send you away. The chief seemed to know what the two needed. A condition that cannot be denied was proposed.
"If you want us to translate, no problem, but you have to let us go first!" Wang Yifei said.
The leader of the savages thought for a while: "Okay, I'll let the people next to you go first." But if you cheat on me. You will be a sacrifice!"
...
Wang Yifei and Jian Ji were taken out of the leader's cave by the savages.
The two came out of the cave. But Jian Jian resolutely refused to allow Wang Yifei to stay, and he insisted on letting Wang Yifei go first!
Wang Yifei saluted at the sword: "We have experienced so much together. Now he is also a teacher and a friend. I also know you're not the Deadpool you used to be. But after all, I am a scholar and can read. If you stay and can't read, you'll be sacrificed, and I won't be able to escape. ”
"On this trip, you go first, remember to go back and tell my father, mother, brother and family. I'm not dead. Let them not worry too much. Wang Yifei's words were categorical, so that Jian Jian couldn't refuse.
Wang Yifei said and tore off a piece of his clothes. I used charcoal as a pen and wrote a letter to my family. The sword slain and went back with this book. There will be no death!
Everything is done. Wang Yifei found the wild man who had captured them. Let him send the sword killer away, and he will be left alone in the Savage Cave, waiting to complete the agreement with the leader!
