As soon as Guo Baibo sat down, all kinds of uncomfortable feelings all over his body rushed into his brain, including abdominal pain, chest tightness, strong nausea and dizziness, all of which showed his fangs.
Guo Baibo suddenly lost his strength and fell forward abruptly. Wu Qi still squatted in front of Guo Baibo and caught Guo Baibo's fallen body.
Guo Baibai's white arms as delicate as willow branches wrapped around Wu Qi's neck, pressing his whole body weight on Wu Qi. She pursed her pale lips tightly and rubbed the side of Wu Qi's neck.
Wu Qi's skin was equally cold.
"Wu Qi, do you think we will die here?"
Wu Qi was silent for a moment, then raised his generous palm to stroke the back of Guo Baibo's head. He tried to increase his body surface temperature as much as possible, but the effect was not obvious.
"Don't worry, we can all survive."
Guo Baibo closed his eyes and buried his face into Wu Qi's shoulder. She couldn't laugh.
Guo Baibo knew his own state best. His brain was dizzy, his whole body was weak, and he was completely unable to go on his way. If Wu Qi and Gao Yuan rested in the cave all night waiting for her, they might be overtaken by the enemy.
Every time he was overtaken by an enemy and escaped, Wu Qi had to pay a huge price. Either a few bones were broken, or a large piece of skin and flesh was scraped off, and it was so bloody that it made her heart bleed.
The first time Wu Qi and others were able to escape was when Gao Yuan used the natural pit trap discovered by hunters in Xujiazhai and lured Mi Weier and Heiss into falling into it. The pit is 27 meters deep. The bottom of the pit is weird mud that will sink in if you use force. The surface of the pit is covered with slippery oily moss. This hindered Miweier and Heiss for a while.
The second time Wu Qi and others were able to escape was because they were lucky enough to encounter a group of gibbon monkeys, and they were lucky not to be the main target. The Gibbon Monkey King has "steel skin" and "strange strength", which can directly compete with Miwei Er or Heisi. With more than 40 ape brothers and extremely familiar terrain, Miwei Er and Heisi also have to stay away temporarily.
Before these two opportunities to escape came, Wu Qidu fought closely with Miwei Er and Heisi for half a minute to a minute. In just such a short battle, he had 7 bruises on his body from being hit by a steel ruler, 3 bruises scraped off by the beast's tail, 2 broken ribs, a broken left forearm bone, and a broken right thigh bone. There was a huge gash of 5 centimeters penetrated by the tail of the alien beast.
If the opportunity had come 10 seconds later, or even 5 seconds later, Wu Qi might have fallen seriously injured and been caught by Miwei Er. If they are caught up by the enemy again, they may not have such good luck again.
An atmosphere of despair began to spread in the cave, and hunger and exhaustion filled their bodies. There is no dry wood or fire here. If you eat raw python meat, you will ingest a large amount of mutated parasites, which is no different than seeking death.
Wu Qi will not sit still and wait for death. He motioned to Gao Yuan to support Guo Baibo for him, stood up and walked out of the cave. While soaking in the rain, he used his hunter's skills to create fake traces around him. It is hoped that these false traces can lead Heiss to go elsewhere and buy some time for Guo Baibo's recovery.
Wu Qi also wanted to find some food, so he made fake traces while heading north.
Wu Qi walked for 45 minutes and was soaked in the rain for 45 minutes. He finally found the second cave. The cave is connected to towering rocks, and the entrance is five meters high. There are a large number of animal bones piled up around the cave, including both leftovers and clean ones. Wu Qi stepped forward to inspect it and found that the bones ranged from foxes, rabbits, squirrels, and monkeys to tigers, leopards, wolves, bears, and wild boars.
It can be seen that the owner of the cave likes to eat meat very much and does not choose the meat of animals. His own strength is at the top of the jungle food chain.
It is commonplace for hunters to learn about the owner of a cave through the accumulation of bones at its entrance. Wu Qi can even deduce from the feces of a certain animal what the animal that defecated had eaten in its last meal. It's just that throughout Wu Qi's nine years of jungle life, he has never encountered a carnivorous creature that doesn't choose the meat of any animal.
Wu Qi entered a resting state, walked quietly, held his breath and concentrated, using his low-light vision to the maximum, and walked inside against the rock wall.
There are many ivy growing from the rock cracks in the cave. The ivy is not only distributed on the cave wall, but also on the ground. Wu Qi very carefully stepped over any ivy that might make noise and continued to explore inside.
The closer Wu Qi got to the inside of the cave, the more he felt the numbness of electric current flowing through the surface of his skin. The hunter's instinct was warning him that it would be very dangerous to go in again.
Suddenly, Wu Qi heard a strange sound, like the sound of something sharp piercing the flesh. The voice was familiar to him, but he couldn't recall it at the moment. Wu Qi continued to walk closer to the rock wall, and finally saw the end of the cave passage.
At the end of the passage is an open cave space. The height of the cave is higher than the five-meter-high cave passage. Wu Qi measured it and found that the top of the cave was at least 7 meters high and the horizontal area was conservatively 200 square meters. And this was just the tip of the iceberg of the cave seen from the end of the passage. .
If it weren't for the large number of animal bones piled at the door, Wu Qi would have been deeply surprised. Such a cave can even be called a "cave".
The strange sounds became louder and louder. Wu Qi boldly looked inside the cave and saw a huge shadow!
At this moment, Wu Qi's pupils shrank violently, and he was beyond shocked.
The owner of the cave is a silverback gorilla. The silverback stands 6 meters tall, twice as tall as the Colossus of Destruction, and its two thick arms are larger than the warhammer-like arms of the Colossus of Destruction. Silverbacks have slender black hair all over their bodies, and the hairs hang down like whiskers. The long hair on their backs is silvery white.
The sheer size of Silverback alone was far from enough to shock Wu Qi beyond measure. Wu Qi was shocked that this giant-like silver back actually held an exaggeratedly large bow. He also placed the polished arrowhead on the bowstring, and used two thick black fingers to pull the bow and loosen the string.
puff! The arrow hit a meat target. The meat target was the carcass of an iron-cracked brown bear. Its back neck to mouth was penetrated by a rock pillar that protruded horizontally from the rock wall and was hung on the rock wall.
This silverback actually split a brown bear's carcass with iron to practice archery!
Wu Qi tried to observe more carefully. He found that Silverback's bow was a purple shirt bow. It was larger than the ones used by the hunters in Xujiazhai. It completely fit its 6-meter-tall figure. It was obviously made by it itself. Bow strings and arrows are all naturally there.
A giant silverback whose intelligence has evolved to the point where it can make bows and arrows. With its wisdom and strength, there is absolutely no creature in this mountain that can compete with it, not Wu Qi, not Miweier, not Heisi. Not to mention the second-level Gibbon Monkey King and other "Kings of Beasts", they will all be killed by it like crushing ants!
