Chapter 220 Yellowstone, Potholes, and Bamboo

The giant ape groaned twice, ignored the calls of the monkeys, and did not express his attitude, just sat back under the shade of the tree and gnawed bamboo by itself.This kind of mental work is not suitable for it. It is better for it to seize the time to replenish its physical strength.

It suddenly remembered something again, raised its head and told the monkeys to wait here and not go anywhere, and then continued to eat.

Even if the king of monkeys does not give orders, the monkeys are not willing to leave their king. The king of monkeys deliberately ordered a word, which aroused the curiosity of the monkeys. Obviously, the king has important things to do, and it seems that he will bring on them!
This is so beautiful!

The monkeys were all jumping up and down excitedly. As for the guy who was neither human nor monkey, they had already forgotten about him. With the king of monkeys around, he could be slapped to death with one slap, and the monkeys didn't care about him at all. Put it in your eyes.

However, the apes in the back row still threw gravel and wood at him frantically, and grinned at the big man who blocked their view.

Zhang Tian retreated to the side knowingly, and sat down in the shade of a tree like the giant ape.Da Zhuang took the opportunity to stay in the first row, admiring the emperor's face up close.

It is said that it is the shade of trees, but it is actually the shade of monkeys. The sparse forests in the valley are all covered with monkeys, forming real baobab trees, casting patches of shade.Monkeys also understand the truth that if you want to see a thousand miles, you can climb a tree.

"Whoa!"

"Te!"

As soon as he sat down, the monkey on the tree started to harass him, shaking off the leaves and branches, and what's more, he spit the fruit shell and core directly on his head.

It is impossible to expect these monkeys to be talented, Zhang Tian immediately picked up a fist-sized stone, turned his head and grinned at the monkeys, throwing the stone.

The group of monkeys screamed in fright. A stone of this size would kill the monkeys if it fell on them!
The monkeys pushed each other and scrambled to climb higher. Some monkeys accidentally fell to the ground and were glared at by Zhang Tian.

Heh, if a tiger doesn't show its power, you think I'm a sick cat?

Zhang Tian bared his teeth and threatened for a while, then sat down again and put the stones by his feet in case of emergencies.

It was the first time in his life that he saw so many monkeys. Looking around, the whole valley was crowded with all kinds of monkeys, as many as thousands!Most of the apes in the northern part of the forest are probably here!
The giant ape gathered so many monkey grandchildren, is it planning to launch another attack?
It may not know that the people by the river have retreated to the north of the river. No matter how agile the ape army is, it is useless if they cannot cross the river.Moreover, after the previous surprise attack, the Riverside people were already prepared, and they would never let them succeed again and again.

No, it should know.

The movement of the people at the riverside to move the camp was not small, and the surrounding wolves could not have been unaware of it. If the wolf boy organized and planned all this, would there be any reason not to tell the giant ape about it?
Zhang Tian's eyes fell on the giant ape, which was leisurely nibbling on the bamboo with its strong bite force and tough molars.

What is it waiting for?

He was thinking, when a familiar cry came from above his head: "Bing Bing! Bing Bing Bing!"

Looking up, Xiao Cang with gray head and red belly was standing on the branch closest to him. His sharp beak opened and closed, and his voice was clear and pleasant. He was in the midst of the howls of ghosts and wolves, and suddenly heard the singing of songbirds. The sense of music and ear temporary clarity.

Zhang Tian grinned, thinking that he must have a high affinity for the forest, and the animals in the forest seemed to like him very much.He beeped twice, calling it down to eat.

Xiaocang skillfully landed on his shoulder, and Zhang Tian rewarded it with a plant seed as always.

Xiao Cang swallowed it in one gulp, and screamed endlessly. After screaming for a while, seeing that the stingy guy didn't give any more, he buried his head in combing his feathers with his sharp beak.

Suddenly, it seemed to sense something, flapped its wings and soared into the air, warning loudly: "An earthquake is coming! An earthquake is coming!"

As soon as the sound fell, the ground shook violently and shook violently!

The group of monkeys suddenly burst into screams and fell into panic.The fear of earthquakes, like the fear of fire, is rooted in the genes of all animals. This terrible disaster can topple the strongest trees, crack the hardest ground, and destroy their homes in an instant.

"Roar!"

The giant ape roared, signaling to the monkeys to calm down and not be afraid.

This roar made those monkeys who were subconsciously trying to escape calm down a little and stopped their steps. However, the shaking did not show any sign of weakening. Not only did it not weaken, it even increased!
"Crack!"

There was a crisp sound like ice shattering, and a gap suddenly opened on the ground, followed by a series of crackling sounds, the sound became louder and louder, like crackling firecrackers, the gap began to thicken and widen, and spread rapidly to both ends, It spread all the way to Zhang Tian's feet.

The monkeys on the ground and in the trees were terrified, screaming and running wildly without looking back.

Zhang Tian was also startled, he staggered towards the open place in the valley, and stopped soon.

Not quite right!

The shock was still strong, but the gap suddenly stopped spreading back and forth, and only kept expanding to the sides, like a gate to hell slowly opening...

As the cracks opened wider and wider, the pervasive sunlight immediately swarmed up, revealing the hidden space hidden behind the door, and a circle of chubby black and white creatures sitting or lying among the piles of bamboo!
Zhang Tian was stunned for a moment, and after a closer look, he confirmed that he was not dazzled, and that he was undoubtedly a giant panda lying on the ground eating bamboo.

The crack opened to the maximum, and a circular pothole with a diameter of about ten meters appeared in front of all the monkeys.

The monkeys who sensed that there was no danger ran back one after another to watch the excitement.

Xiao Cang, who was flying in the air, gave another loud warning: "The cave has appeared! The cave has appeared!"

Zhang Tian stood on the edge of the pothole and looked down. The bottom of the pit was three or four meters away from the ground. He carefully distinguished it and confirmed that the distance was gradually shortening, and the pothole was actually rising!It's like a smart elevator!
Lots of bamboo, twelve giant pandas, and...one person!

a woman!
His eyes swept over the naive iron-eating beast, and then fell on the woman in the middle of the pit.

The other party was also looking at him, with a little surprise in his eyes.

The disappearing pothole that Aba and the people on the riverside have seen should refer to this...then this woman should be a wolf boy...how is it a woman?Aba clearly said it was a little boy...

On second thought, it might be Aba's subjective assumption. Four or five-year-old children have not yet developed secondary sexual characteristics, so it is difficult to tell whether they are male or female from their appearance.

The woman stood very straight, and her figure was also tall and straight. It seemed that even if she lived with wild beasts, she always kept walking upright.

Perhaps because of living in the forest for a long time, her complexion is much fairer than that of most primitive people. She seems to have suffered a fire. There are many black and purple scars left by burns on her face and body, and there are many new scabs. shocking.

Maybe the wolf boy didn't hate humans from the beginning. She might have tried to contact the same kind, but she was not accepted. Instead, she was caught and burned at the stake, so she left this scar on her body. After she escaped, she gathered herds to start Retaliation... In this short moment, Zhang Tian has already imagined a big drama.

The pothole rose until it stopped less than half a meter from the ground.

The monkeys retreated a few meters away. The sudden hole and the black and white bear in the hole made them curious. It was the first time they saw this round creature. The black and white bear looked harmless to humans and animals. But their burly bodies make monkeys instinctively afraid.

Zhang Tian didn't take a step back, he didn't feel any danger or hostility, and this group of iron-eating beasts, like the giant apes, only cared about eating bamboo without even raising their eyelids.

From looking down to looking up, things that were previously invisible due to the angle can now be seen at a glance.

His pupils froze!
The woman was holding a round khaki stone in her hand!
The woman obviously noticed his gaze, and immediately turned her wrist, turning her back to him.

But it was too late, Zhang Tian was too familiar with the appearance of the five-color stones, especially after he got the white stones, blue stones and red stones, with just one glance, he could tell that the stones held by the other party must be yellow stones!
"Woo! Aww!"

Zhang Tianchao's woman uttered a friendly monkey cry. Since the other party can communicate with the great ape, she must understand monkey language.

The woman was stunned, with great confusion in her clear eyes. She looked him up and down like a fool, and seemed to confirm that this strange guy was not a threat, so she looked away and looked at the giant ape.

"Roar!"

The great ape finally left its comfortable seat and got up to work.

It ordered the monkeys to jump into the pothole, told them to be obedient and quiet, and not to provoke its lovely neighbor, the giant panda, or the human being.

The apes gathered around the pothole, shouting happily, as if they were brave, but their bodies were very honest. Everyone was afraid to go forward, and no one wanted to be the first monkey to eat crabs.

The great ape brushed aside the group of bluffing monkeys, jumped straight into the pit, made brief friendly eye contact with the woman and the giant panda, and then beckoned the monkeys into the pit.

Finally, the monkeys were no longer afraid, and jumped into the pit like dumplings. After a while, hundreds of monkeys filled the pit, and then saw the king of monkeys crawling out of the pit.

The ape suddenly yelled in panic.

The giant ape roared to reassure the people, saying that you go first, and the king will arrive later.

Before the sound fell, the earth shook again. Amid the screams of the monkeys, the pothole began to sink, and the ground slowly closed like an old and heavy door, making a dull sound.

In the end, even this sound was silenced, and the earth returned to its original state, tightly stitched, as if it had never been cracked.

The rest of the apes looked dumbfounded, and they were rare to be quiet, only the sirens of the birds echoed in the forest:
"The monkey has entered the hole! The monkey has entered the hole!"

"The cave is gone! The cave is gone!"

The silence lasted only a few seconds, and the monkeys shouted again and made a fuss.

Zhang Tian walked carefully to the cracked land just now. The ground was very solid, but the surface was bare without any vegetation, which was in stark contrast to the surrounding green land.This is the only evidence that paranormal events have taken place here.

The pothole must have sunk deep into the ground.

He pondered in his heart and understood a lot of things at once.

Huangshi is obviously the real stone of the earth. What is the specific function? Zhang Tian dare not jump to conclusions, but since the woman can use the power of Huangshi to move vertically, she can also move horizontally.

In this way, the adventures of Aba when he was young can be explained. The reason why he was able to travel hundreds of kilometers in a short period of time was not because he shrunk to an inch. When he was traveling in the underground cave, the underground cave also It's moving, and it's moving far faster than he can travel!
In the deep underground, there is no reference object. When the cave moves at a constant speed or with a very small acceleration, people cannot detect it. Of course, even if there is a strange feeling, Abba will never think about it. How could the cave possibly move?This is totally against common sense!
The successive earthquakes last night must have been caused by the woman walking back and forth underground.

She used this power as a subway, transporting "soldiers" and supplies from all over the forest to the front line, gathering wolves, supplying food such as bamboo, and now transporting giant pandas and monkeys...

Thinking of this, Zhang Tian's expression became more serious.

With the power of Huangshi, the river's natural dangers that the people on the river bank relied on became a decoration, and the herd of beasts could easily go around behind the people on the river bank from the ground, and launch surprise attacks from places they didn't expect!
Giant pandas and giant apes are powerful combat forces, but their food needs special supplies, so they should choose to be transported last, and giant pandas appeared in the pit, which means that the herd has almost assembled, maybe tonight, maybe Tomorrow, a large-scale attack on the people of the river is about to break out!

And his clansmen who are resting and recuperating in the riverside tribe are likely to be affected too!

"Woo! Woohoo!"

Wuwu skillfully climbed onto the elder brother's shoulders, hugged the elder brother's neck, and sensed that the elder brother was in a bad mood, so it let out a cry of concern.

Zhang Tian ignored it, and glanced at the group of monkeys. The monkeys who left just now accounted for about one-fifth of the total. The woman had to be transported back and forth four more times before all the combat power could be sent to the front line.

He recalled the scene just now, the woman's attitude towards him was a bit strange, and she didn't seem to understand monkey language... Anyway, he had to find a way to talk to her.

Seeing Wuwu, Da Zhuang presumptuously overran it again, occupied its mount, rushed up angrily to drive Wuwu away, and then climbed onto Zhang Tian's shoulder to show off his might.

Zhang Tian took advantage of the situation and asked it if that woman was the human being who sat on the giant ape's shoulders before.

Da Zhuang gave a negative answer.

No... Could there be more than one wolf boy?
Zhang Tian walked up to the giant ape.

After seeing off the first batch of apes, the giant ape obviously knew that the woman would come back, so he sat in the shade of the tree and continued to enjoy the food.

Zhang Tian asked the giant ape if that woman was a wolf child.

After asking several times, seeing that the giant ape ignored him at all, he had no choice but to give up.

He glanced at the sky, it was still early, if he rushed back now, he might be able to return to the riverside tribe before dark, so that the tribe could prepare for it...

But this is not the best policy, not to mention that under the eyes of the giant ape, he can't leave easily, even if he escapes by chance, even if the people on the river get the news and make preparations, a fight will inevitably hurt both sides.

War is always the worst outcome.

Maybe the wolf boy didn't understand the language of the Hepan people, so he couldn't communicate and negotiate with the other party, so he had no choice. Then, Zhang Tian was happy to act as a third party to promote the peace talks between the two parties.

The sky clan he leads is powerful enough and deeply trusted by the riverside people. As long as they win the trust of the wolf boy and the beast herd, this crisis will be solved easily.

"The earthquake is coming! The earthquake is coming!" Xiao Cang issued an alarm.

After a violent shock, the woman came back, still standing straight in the middle of the pothole.

Looking at the empty pothole, the group of monkeys shouted: "Where are the apes!"So many apes!
The giant ape got up to work again, appeasing the hearts of the people and urging the ape to enter the pit.

Zhang Tian tried to get close to the woman in the pothole, but just as he stepped forward, a giant hand almost as big as his torso blocked his way.

He turned his head, facing the warning eyes of the giant ape.

He understands that he is not allowed to approach each other.

The second wave of monkey soldiers began to "board the ship", Zhang Tian was a little impatient, if the other party didn't understand monkey language, how would he communicate?
With the mentality of why not give it a try, he spoke out and greeted the other party in the language of the people on the riverside.

Women are unmoved, and most of them still don't understand.

The potholes collapsed and the earth closed.

When she returned for the third time, Zhang Tian tried to communicate with her in bird language, but failed.

When she came back for the fourth time, Zhang Tian really had nothing to do. He thought that this woman probably only understood wolf language, so he raised his neck and imitated howling a wolf: "Wow!"

The monkeys were stunned, and even the giant ape looked sideways, wondering what this guy was doing.

Zhang Tian knew that his imitation was clumsy, and he didn't expect to convey any useful information, as long as he could make the other party understand that he wanted to have a friendly exchange with her.

The woman obviously understood his intentions, and finally reacted, pointing to her ears, shaking her head lightly, expressing that she didn't understand.

After she left with the apes, the sun began to set towards the western mountains. The valley originally occupied by thousands of apes is now only left with more than a hundred apes, including the giant apes and the macaque family led by Da Zhuang. The bottom of the valley is quiet and open. many.

Zhang Tian recalled the woman's every move, and the more he thought about it, the more strange he felt. The woman did not show any hostility towards him, and he did not see the slightest bit of wildness from her. On the contrary, she seemed quite gentle and approachable. .

A wolf boy who was raised by wild beasts and was about to attack the human camp had such a face, which made him feel a little out of harmony.

Maybe it was her partner's wish, she just had to do it, but she didn't agree with it in her heart, at least she didn't fully agree with it.

If this is the case, then using her as a breakthrough point is undoubtedly the best choice...

As Zhang Tian was thinking, the earth shook for the fifth time.

When the woman returned for the fifth time, her complexion was very pale, and she had obviously reached the limit after using her ability for a long time.

The giant ape greeted all the remaining apes to enter the pit, and it also jumped into the pit with the remaining bamboo and bamboo shoots in its arms. Play some tricks, or slap him to death.

Zhang Tian didn't intend to cause trouble at first, he was unarmed, how dare he make trouble under the eyes of the giant ape?

A sense of weightlessness came, the ground began to descend, the land on the surface closed, the roof of the cave stopped at a height of about two meters, the sunlight was driven away, and the dark cave glowed with a dark green phosphorescence.

They are luminous stones, and there are quite a few of them, illuminating this nearly [-]-square-meter underground cave brightly.

After reaching a certain depth, the cave began to move laterally, and the inertia caused all the passengers to fall backwards, but the woman stood firmly all the time.

I didn't expect to be able to take the subway 1 years ago... Zhang Tian looked around, quite dumbfounded.
