Chapter 280: Broken Map

The road of the underground world is tortuous and dark, and the empty cave may become a stone wall a few hundred steps away, or it may become an impassable abyss, and Xi Wen lives to follow behind the cave people, because the complex terrain often loses their traces, but the foul smell that permeates the cave people's bodies allows him to find them smoothly with his sense of smell.

After climbing over several cliffs, through a huge mushroom jungle, and crossing two underground rivers, Xi Wenming finally came to the cave man's lair, but the narrow entrance really stumped him, he clearly smelled that the entrance of this cave less than a foot exuded the unique smell of the cave people, and because of the activities of countless cave people here, many times a day, the stone walls of the cave were rubbed extremely smooth.

Ji Wenming leaned down, lowered his head and could even see that in the dark cave, there were countless black shadows hidden in it, heavy snorts, scattered heartbeats, all of which proved that there was a large tribe living here.

A spear poked out of the cave and almost stabbed Ji Wenming's nose, he quickly got up, took a few steps back, thought about it, controlled his body, and shrank several times to show that he was harmless.

Then I saw a group of centaurs coming out of the cave, led by the cave man who was more than three feet tall, he looked burly compared to ordinary cave people, and the spear he held in his hand was sharper.

Even if he shrunk his body, he was more than five feet tall, and if he wanted to, he could easily kill all these green blind people, but he didn't do this, as a stranger, he just wanted to find his way home.

Facing the spear with a cold light flashing on the tip of his nose, Ji Wenming raised his hands high and said, "I have no malice, I'm just a poor person who wants to go home!"

Baribaly didn't attack recklessly, the giant wasn't as big as the Explosive Bear, but it was twice as tall as himself, and his actions were not malicious, looking more like an intelligent being, perhaps not a life-and-death struggle.

Baribaly is very jealous of Xi Wenming, this man has found a place for his clan to live in, bringing danger to the clan, and he looks very powerful, as evidenced by the half-human-tall giant axe behind his buttocks, this axe is exquisitely worked, it looks like it is thousands of catties, only the black iron dwarf has such exquisite craftsmanship, ordinary people can't handle such a weapon at all.

The members of the hunting party behind Baribaly were all in place, blocking the entrance to the cave, this was already the bravest warrior that the clan could choose, and if he clashed with the giant, even if he killed the giant, he would inevitably be damaged.

Seeing that Xi Wenming opened his mouth and muttered something, Baribaly judged the situation and stopped the bloodthirsty impulse of the clansmen, he stood his spear beside him, waved his hand and shouted to himself, "Baribaly!"

Seeing that the cave man shouted "Baribaly" several times in a row, Xi Wenming understood a little, and he also gestured to himself and said, "Xi Wenming!"

The cave people don't have their own language, they rely on comparisons and gestures to communicate with each other every day, and Xi Wenming doesn't understand the underground language, but through comparisons, he finally explained that he has no malicious intentions.

Seeing that Xi Wenming was able to communicate, Baribaly guessed that the other party might be hungry! So he was full of vigilance, but he ordered his people to fetch some rock pork and give it to Xi Wenming.

Ji Wenming accepted the gift, and took out a bunch of demon beast jerky that he had carried and gave it back to Baribaly, letting the other party know that he was not short of food.

The initial contact between the two sides was very friendly, and Baribaly was a little relieved about Xi Wenming, the most terrifying thing in the underground world is the predators, they are fierce and arrogant, bloodthirsty and ruthless, and Xi Wenming carries food around him, so it is very likely that it has nothing to do with predators.

The vigilance of both sides has been lowered considerably, and the atmosphere is much more cheerful.

Although they were choked enough by these unhygienic and foul-smelling guys, she still helped them deal with their wounds, stop bleeding, and bandage them, this kind of medical skill is far beyond the knowledge of the cavemen who grew savagely, making them mistakenly think that they are miracle doctors.

After some in-depth contact, Baribaly finally understood that Xi Wenming was the same as the harpy, he had fallen here by accident, maybe he was just lost, he felt a lot more relaxed, took off his animal skin pants, tore off a piece of animal skin from the corner, and handed it to Xi Wenming.

Ji Wenming did not refuse because this animal skin was very suspicious, he knew that the other party's actions must be reasonable, so he took this black animal skin with confidence and spread it out.

Baribali spoke very quickly, muttered a few words, and saw that Xi Wenming didn't understand, so he anxiously stepped forward and pointed to the lines and a few special symbols on the animal skin, and said a foreign language to Xi Wenming again.

After his repeated explanations, and compared with the terrain around him, Xi Wenming gradually understood that this dirty and pickled animal skin was actually a map, the red dots represented the cavemen's settlements, the black lines represented the mountains, and the red lines represented the magma rivers, but the red and black intertwined on this animal skin still made people's heads big.

Ji Wenming was very helpless, he saw that this tribe was very primitive and simple, and lacked food, so he took out a large amount of demon beast jerky from his arms, piled it on the ground, and then contemplated for a moment, and mobilized his consciousness to be consumed by signing a contract, and after the few divine senses directly transmitted his thoughts to Baribali: "I want to find a guide to take me out of this area, and I am willing to exchange food for a guide to guide the way!"

A voice suddenly appeared in Baribaly's mind, which made him understand the meaning of Ji Wenming at once, he was a little surprised, and a little frightened, this kind of telepathic communication, he was also in contact with it for the first time, but the underground world was vast and boundless, and when the eagle man appeared, it also brought him the same shock.

Baribaly's request was not complicated, Baribaly pondered for a moment, walked back to the cave, discussed with the village chief for a long time, and finally decided to personally go out to lead the way for Xi Wenming, on the condition that it was food, a lot of food.

Baribaly's map was given by Harpy Hall, the map marked the nearest large underground cave, where the Harpy lived, according to the Harpy, about five days away from here, Baribaly did not know that the five days that Harpy said was calculated at the speed of flight, he simply thought that he only needed to leave for five days, and it would not affect the lives of the clansmen, and he knew that being able to make friends with the strong would have great benefits for the future development of the clan and even his own progress.

Baribali didn't know how to transmit the sound, he pointed to the jerky on the ground and gestured for a long time, and Xi Wenming realized that he needed more food, but Xi Wenming couldn't expose his own small world in the cave, so he said: "I don't have much food on my body, if you know where there are beasts, I am willing to help you hunt in return!"

Baribaly was very happy that they could learn about the giant's methods and even learn a few tricks when they hunted together, so he arranged for guards, and once again led several good men in the hunting team to set off, and accompanied Xi Wenming out to hunt.
