Chapter 180: "The Return"
Savannah in the afternoon.
Banyan tribal territory.
As usual in the afternoon, the apes brought out a quick lunch with handy roast meat and wild fruits, and took advantage of the rest time to take a nap.
For most of the apes of the Banyan tribe, a good life should be like this, a safe habitat, enough food to eat, and a belief to guide the way ahead when confused.
"It's back!"
Next to the dry river, Li Hang stood on a huge rock that had been warmed by the sun, looking out at the barren banyan territory.
The surrounding radius of a hundred miles was once the territory of two dogs, bears, and beasts, and was later occupied by a mammoth whose strength was not inferior to that of ordinary beasts.
The mammoth was called Manman, and it was now the temporary guardian beast of the Banyan Clan.
In the shadow of the boulder, dozens of apes sat on the ground tiredly leaning against the boulder, even though Li Hang helped them avoid all kinds of dangers along the way with his keen five senses, but the way to march in a hurry seemed to be in a hurry, but it also made these apes almost exhausted their physical strength.
Mao hurriedly bowed slightly, and asked slightly hoarsely, "Venerable Beast, is this the territory of the Desolate Banyan Clan?"
His most handy weapon, the Beast Tendon Meteor Hammer, had been left on the road a few days ago because he was overwhelmed, and he looked around with a wooden spear in his eyes, his eyes full of disappointment.
"Of course not, have you forgotten the banyan forest I mentioned?" Li Hang lowered his head to look at the apes and gave them a warm smile, "But it's almost there, you can rest for a while, and you will definitely be able to reach the banyan tree before nightfall today." ”
The apes were suddenly in high spirits, and they couldn't wait to help each other stand up, and looked into the distance along Li Hang's gaze, although the distance was too far to see any shadow of the banyan tree, but the fatigue accumulated for many days seemed to dissipate a little bit out of thin air.
......
Bang bang!
Bang bang!!
The mammoth strode around the borders of the Banyan Clan's territory, leaving a little breath of feces and urine every once in a while to indicate the belonging of the territory.
He was accustomed to his current life, and after every round of the banyan forest, the apes in the banyan forest would prepare fresh branches and haystacks for him to enjoy, so that although he had lost some freedom, he had also gained long-lost comfort.
Ahh
Just as it surveyed the vicinity of the barren territory it had briefly occupied, a deep tiger roar suddenly came into its ears.
"The voice is...... Lord ?!!"
Hmmm!
The mammoth screamed, then immediately picked up speed and strode in the direction from which the tiger's roar had come from.
It had been completely broken and planted the seed of Li Hang's invincibility, so even if it hadn't seen it for many days, it wouldn't dare to slack off in the slightest.
Ah!!h
Hmmm!ang!!
The roar of the tiger and the cry of the elephant echoed each other, and as the ground shook more and more strongly, the figure of the mammoth Manman running wildly gradually appeared in Li Hang's sight.
"What kind of beast is that?"
As the mammoth drew closer, a wave of horror appeared on the faces of the apes.
The apes of the Warong tribe had lived in caves deep in the jungle for generations, and they had never seen such a behemoth, even if Li Hang had briefly mentioned that he had left a subordinate guardian beast in the tribe before.
"Quick, find cover, hide yourself!"
Mao hurriedly turned his head sideways, looked at Mammoth and shouted to the people behind him, he believed in Li Hang's strength, but the comparison with Mammoth's huge size made him have to plan for the worst.
"Don't panic, that's the second guardian of the Banyan Clan, and it won't hurt you. As soon as he recovered from the joy of meeting the mammoth, Li Hang heard Mao Hurry's shout, and he raised his front paws and waved at them, signaling the apes to be calm.
Mao was stunned for a moment, "The second guardian, the attached guardian, how is it possible?"
Although he had already thought highly of Li Hang's strength before, it was only now that he realized how strong and powerful the true strength of the Three-Tailed Guardian should be to make such a strong and mighty mammoth willing to succumb to him.
After Li Hang reminded him, he turned around to greet him, and he hadn't seen him for more than half a month, and he didn't know if this mammoth was still as obedient as he was at the beginning.
Bang bang!
Hmmm!
The mammoth stopped in front of Li Hang, his two thick front hooves bent and knelt, hissed, threw his nose back, and pointed to his back.
"Long time no see, Manman, the tribe is all right. Li Hang was not polite at all, his body shape changed instantly, shrunk into the form of a three-tailed cat, and swooped onto the back of the mammoth.
"Ang, I'm here, Lord, please rest assured!" Feeling that Li Hang was standing firmly on his back, Man Man shook his head and slowly straightened up, and replied in a rough voice, feeling that the aura on Li Hang's body was a little stronger, and Mammoth immediately said respectfully.
"Good job!" Nodding, Li Hang patted the mammoth's head in approval as a sign of encouragement, "Let's go, go home!"
Seeing Li Hang squatting on the back of the mammoth, although the apes were still a little afraid of the mammoth, they were no longer as panicked as before, they gathered around the mammoth more than ten meters away, looking up and down the tusked giant beast curiously, and their mouths let out bursts of exclamation.
Boom!
Boom!
The mammoth walked slowly towards the banyan forest, trying his best to stabilize his body as he walked, so as not to make Li Hang feel uncomfortable with too many movements.
"Keep up, you'll be home in no time. ”
After turning around and shouting to the apes, Li Hang stopped caring about them, closed his eyes and curled up in a ball, bathing in the afternoon sun and slowly falling asleep.
During this time, he worked as a nanny and a sentry, and he was really tired, and as soon as he returned to his territory, he couldn't help but relax his mind.
Boom!!
Boom!!
As the banyan forest gradually approached, the apes of the Warong remnant tribe became more and more excited, but they couldn't help but feel a burst of apprehension.
What if the Banyan tribe doesn't accept them?
What if you accept it, but you don't get along?
If there is a conflict when getting along, what should the three-tailed guardian ape do with the Wild Banyan tribe?
The possibilities and uncertainties of the future made these apes feel up and down, and they all fell silent for a while.
"Hey, you see, it's strange that a group of strangers are following the guardian!"
A few apes who were leaning over the ground to collect the young berries and leaves accidentally spotted the team of the Depression Remnants, immediately dropped the work in their hands, and stood up vigilantly and looked into the distance.
"It's a stranger, and it's really ugly. ”
"Go and call the Flamebringer and tell him to bring the torches. ”
"Yes, you have to bring torches, the hunting party is not there, I think they are quite numerous. ”
Because it was too far away, the apes of the Banyan tribe did not notice Li Hang lying on the back of the mammoth, and mistakenly thought that those strange apes were invaders brought by the mammoth as their own people.
