Traveling through the primitive world: I was a priest in the tribe
Chapter 104: Ape 11
For fear of alerting the enemy, after setting up the isolation zone a few days ago, they have not gone to the mountains where the apes are in the past two days. The hunting team also goes out on the nearby hills and lakes to ensure their safety as much as possible.
Ji Lang didn't sleep well the whole night. He tossed and turned, and finally fell asleep with Qing Jiu holding him in his arms. When he fell asleep, he had all kinds of dreams. One moment, the apes rushed up with rocket launchers, the next moment, the apes suddenly begged for mercy, making everyone feel helpless, and the next moment, there was a fire that not only burned the apes' cave, but also burned their cave.
After waking up, he still felt a little dizzy. It was not yet fully light. After a night of nightmares and the hot weather, Ji Lang could not sleep at all. He simply got up and went outside to get some fresh air.
Qing Jiu got up early and was busy organizing his bow and arrows in the yard. He was not surprised to see Ji Lang. After all, this man woke up many times during the night and he must have slept poorly. It would be good for him to get up and do something to distract himself.
He could understand why Ji Lang was so worried this time. After all, when he faced the cannibals before, on the one hand, he knew the number and strength of the other side. On the other hand, Ji Lang had never encountered a scene of cannibals killing and eating people, so he didn't have much idea in his mind. However, the apes had seriously chased Ji Lang and hacked him once. After the last encounter with the apes, Ji Lang would wake up in the middle of the night from time to time. He had a direct feeling of the speed and strength of the apes, and now he couldn't help but worry even more.
Qing Jiu: "Are you awake? Sister Lan buried a few new potatoes at the bottom of the pot. They should be ready soon. Go and have a look."
Rubbing his sore eyes, Ji Lang responded, took two steps towards the kitchen, then turned back and walked to Qing Jiu's side. He squatted down and said with some concern, "Can you beat the apes? I always have a bad feeling..."
Qing Jiu raised his hand and ruffled his hair which was a little fluffy and messy from sleeping. "Believe me, I won't take risks unless I am absolutely sure."
He was not bragging, but through the previous battle with the ape and Xishi's subsequent observation and tracking, they found that the number of that group of apes was not that large, and although they were bigger in size, their movements were a bit clumsy and slow compared to the hunters. In addition, they had so many weapons that did not belong to this era, so they had a chance of winning, but they had to try their best to avoid getting hurt themselves.
"Don't think too much. If you don't want to eat, go wash your face first. The water outside is still cold and it will be very comfortable to wash your face." Qing Jiu's tone sounded like he was negotiating, but he took Ji Lang out.
As soon as he stepped out of the cave, Ji Lang couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. Why were there so many people here, yet still so quiet?
Seeing him and Qing Jiu coming out, Dashu immediately stood up from the corner where he was squatting, baring his teeth and grinning, "Chief, priest, are you guys up?"
"Why did you come here so early? Have you eaten?" Ji Lang asked.
"Not yet. We'll go back and eat after the leader distributes weapons to us. We'll set off right after that." Dashu said. They were the group assigned to shoot arrows, so they had to split up and ambush early to avoid too many people going out and attracting the attention of the apes.
Ji Lang went to the sink to wash his face by himself. Qing Jiu was telling those people some key points to pay attention to. Ji Lang felt a little nostalgic for him being in this state. He had no expression and his words were cold. It seemed that he had only spoken to Ji Lang like this in the beginning of the cabin. Later, he didn't know when, but slowly, his tone of voice unconsciously became a little warm and gentle when he spoke to him.
The arrangements made by Qingjiu and Xishi were very detailed. Ji Lang, who was a little worried at the beginning, gradually calmed down as he listened. He shook his head. He felt that he might have been frightened before, so he couldn't calm down. He couldn't help but worry. After being pinched by Dayu before, he still didn't like to have something around his neck. He would feel uncomfortable wearing a scarf in the cold season.
Sometimes he would think, he used to be very brave, why did he become so timid and cautious here, especially when he was in the small house at the beginning, he really felt like he was fearless.
But for someone like him who grew up with legal education in peacetime, perhaps the biggest setback he encountered from childhood to adulthood was when he learned that his parents divorced and each had a new family and neither of them wanted him.
When I first arrived, I had no knowledge of this world and my thinking was still stuck in that safe era, so naturally I was not afraid of anything.
But it’s different now. He has experienced some things, witnessed the cruelty of this world, and realized that the price to pay if one is not careful is his own life, so he has become extremely timid.
An ordinary person like him is particularly insignificant in such an era where the strong prey on the weak.
Thinking of this, he began to observe Qingjiu and Dashu's group again. Compared with these people, Qingjiu's body seemed particularly tall and strong. If Dashu hadn't said it himself, Ji Lang would not have believed that this group of people who looked completely different from Qingjiu and Guoqi could also be hunters.
Now these people have serious and resolute faces, as if they are determined to fight to the death with the apes, and they really look like hunters.
Even without the blessing of the mountain god, they are still trying to realize their own value in their own way.
Both the team responsible for archery and the team responsible for cutting vines set out in several waves. Qingjiu and Xishi were the last to leave. It was already afternoon when they left. Sashi was from the archery team and set out earlier. Guoqi stayed at home to look after the elderly, the weak, the women and the children to prevent any accidents.
Originally, as the first person in the group to use a bow and arrow, Ji Lang also wanted to go, but was ruthlessly rejected by Qing Jiu.
Qing Jiu wanted to take him hunting and learning, but not now. It was too dangerous this time. If something went wrong, not only Ji Lang might get hurt, but others might also be implicated.
Ji Lang also understood his concerns. He also knew his own capabilities. If he really encountered danger, his brain would freeze up. His ability to respond in the wild was too poor, so he was not suitable to be a drag in such a critical operation.
When operating in the wild, whistles cannot be used to transmit signals. After all, the sound is too strange and can easily attract the attention of various wild animals.
After Qingjiu and Xishi arrived at the place and confirmed that all the people who were going to cut the vines were present, they took out the cell phones in their pockets and flashed the light three times towards the opposite mountain. This was what Jilang taught them. Not long after, they received the three flashes from Sashi in return.
"Get started." Qing Jiu gave the order in a low voice, and all the people who were originally lying in the haystack rushed forward, immediately ran to the edge of the cliff, waving the long knives in their hands and began to chop the vines that were thicker than their thighs.
Liefeng and his three cubs squatted on the edge of the cliff and stared straight ahead, as if paying attention to the movements of the apes.
Soon, the apes in the cave sensed something was wrong and began to vigorously shake the vines that had not been cut yet. Some of them even began to climb up along the vines.
Xi Shi chopped and moved closer to the edge of the cliff to take a look. "Hurry up, they found it!"
There were so many vines, tangled together in a tangled mess. Some of them had to be cut off before we realized they were all from the same root.
"No, this is too slow." Qing Jiu said, and immediately took out his cell phone and started flashing it, signaling them to act in advance. Sa Shi on the opposite side understood his intention and flashed a bit to signal him. Then he put his cell phone away. He couldn't keep flashing, otherwise it would affect the accuracy of the archery of those on the opposite side.
The vines were wet and not easy to ignite, but the flaming arrows that rushed over did have an effect. Several apes that were originally running up the vines were either shot or frightened. They roared and shook the vines even harder, but when they found that this had no effect, they jumped back into the cave.
The sound of "whoosh, whoosh, whoosh" came over in waves. Many of the arrows that were originally lit had already been extinguished by the time they came over. Even if they were coated with oil and alcohol, it did not have much effect.
and……
Qing Jiu was speechless as he looked at the several arrows that had fallen in two and had fallen at his feet. These people's aim was too poor. They had to be careful not to get hurt by the flying arrows while cutting the vines.
He has been attacked three times in this moment.
"People on the other side, can you do something? Go shoot the apes, what's the point of shooting your own people?" Someone couldn't help but curse.
"That's right. If you're new, just practice more. What's the point of beating up your own people?"
Needless to say, they must have learned this from Ji Lang, and most likely said it when Ji Lang was teaching them.
