1278 - Patriarch in the cave

Lying on the stone platform and looking up, the thief didn't even have the strength to blink his eyes.

But fortunately, there is a place to shelter from the wind and rain on this stone platform, because on the stone platform, there is also a protruding stone, and the two stones are on top of each other, revealing the hiding place in the middle.

Well, I'm lucky enough to find such a place.

Ji Thief comforted himself in his heart, and the rain fell even heavier.

The rain mixed with the wind came in from the edge of the platform and hit the thief.

Seeing this scene, Ji Thief said in his heart that this is not good, this still has to be wet, so he used the pitiful strength he raised to go inside.

This time he went inside, but the thief found a terrible place.

On the mountain wall, where the two stones were struck, there was a cave.

Oh, good fellow, this cave is well hidden.

No matter from below or from above, you can't see this cave.

If I hadn't climbed this stone platform by myself, I am afraid I would not have found it.

There's nothing more exciting than the thief right now.

What is there to say about finding such a temporary hiding place?

The thief hurriedly crawled towards the cave, and after entering the cave, he breathed a sigh of relief, and he didn't have to worry about the thunder and torrential rain outside the cave.

In the cave, the thief leaned on the stone wall with his back, turned his head to look at the torrent outside, although he said that now his life is not in danger for the time being, but a new problem has come, he can't stay in this cave all the time.

The devil knows when this torrent went, but he didn't have anything to eat.

And how are they going to find themselves? These are all questions.

The thief looked down in the leather bag he was carrying, but found some sealed fruit wine in a bamboo tube and a dried fire fold.

This fire fold is tightly bandaged by itself, otherwise, it will be soaked in the torrent just now, and it will be wasted.

Basically, I had these two things on my body, and nothing else.

Ji Thief felt cold and hungry like this, so he really had no choice but to open the fire fold and blow it, take the fruit wine, and pour it into his stomach one by one to keep warm.

He took off his soaked clothes, he was naked, although it was cold, but there was no other way for the thief, otherwise, if he was wet, he would freeze to death.

The thief curled up on the edge of the fire to keep warm, but the flame was so big, how could it make the thief warm all over?

He drank some wine to develop some strength, and said in his heart that he would die of hunger and cold if he continued like this, and that death would be too miserable.

In desperation, the thief held a fire fold in one hand and fruit wine in the other, and walked back and forth in the cave naked to keep warm.

As he was walking, the thief suddenly noticed that something was wrong.

It's as if this cave is very deep.

He hissed, turned his head in confusion, and let his curiosity lead him down the cave.

There is a fire fold illuminating, and the thief goes deeper and deeper little by little.

About twenty meters deep into the cave, the thief found something.

When he first saw these things, Ji Thief was not ready to be startled fiercely, and blurted out a groan, and the whole person jumped up like a cat with its tail stepped on.

I saw that in the cave not far in front of me, there were many skeletons lined up.

You think, it's a big night, and it's a secluded cave, isn't it scared to death when you see these suddenly?

Rao was used to seeing the thief of life and death, but he was still taken aback.

Even, as soon as the thief's hand was released, the bamboo tube in his hand fell to the ground with a bang, and the fruit wine spilled on the ground.

Ji Thief hurriedly picked up the fruit wine and patted his chest, and only breathed a sigh of relief after making sure that it was really just a skeleton.

He took a closer look, only to see that there were many human skeletons lying on the ground.

Moreover, on each skeleton, there were scattered and worn animal skins, and next to the skeleton, there was a rotten wooden spear.

Seeing this situation, the thief couldn't help but sigh, and said in his heart, why are there human bones here?

And, depending on the situation, these skeletons are all local primitives.

Why are there dead people here?

Ji Thief couldn't figure it out, and he couldn't figure it out, he stared at the skeleton, and suddenly, he remembered what Oga had said to him when he entered the Baigu Mountain Range.

There is a tradition in the beast tribe that when each patriarch is about to reach the end of his life, he will leave all his tribe behind and leave the tribe alone, looking for a place to wait for the end of his life.

It's just that none of the clansmen know where their patriarch will end his life.

The thief once asked Oga how long this tradition has been, and Oga said that he did not know, but said that he knew, and that seven patriarchs had ended their lives like this.

Ji Thief deduced at that time that even if each patriarch reigned for thirty years, the beast tribe would have a history of at least two hundred years.

His gaze fell on the bones on the ground, and the thief suddenly thought of a possibility.

With a thought, he crouched down to scatter the skeletons and check the number of skeletons.

This trip is counted, no more, no less, exactly seven.

Damn, there can't be such a coincidence, right?

I also broke into the cemetery of the patriarchs of the beast tribe in a daze?

Realizing that there was this possibility, Ji Thief hurriedly arched his hands at the skeleton, only to feel a chill on his back, and he hurriedly said: "Brothers, uncles, there are strange things, there are strange things." ”

Saying that, Ji Thief breathed a sigh of relief and planned to turn around and leave quickly.

Just a step, the thief suddenly stopped, looked at the dry animal skins on those skeletons, rolled his eyes, picked up the animal skins one by one and put them on his body, and said: "Brothers, you see that my little brother is smooth and slippery, and I am cold, in the spirit of compassion, you will borrow me to wear this clothes first, and when I go back, I will definitely give you a good burial? ”

As he spoke, the thief bowed again with joy.

With animal skin on his body, the thief felt much warmer now.

Although it is said that these animal skins smell musty and strange, it is better than being frozen.

Ji Thief sighed, and said that his luck was still good, and he came to wear it when he was about to freeze to death.

Alas, if only there was something to eat, this good fellow starved himself.

Holding his belly and thinking, all of a sudden, the thief heard a movement in his ears, and in the empty cave, it was so clear and audible.

All of a sudden, the thief only felt a coldness surging directly from the root of his tail to the heavenly spirit, which frightened the thief to wake up at that time: "Who is !!?"

He hurriedly picked up a relatively intact wooden spear on the spot, and stared cautiously in the direction from which the voice came.

Creak.

The voice came again, and Ji Thief's face turned pale.

End, finish calf, is there really a monster?

He looked at the skeletons on the ground, and in the light of the fire, it seemed as if he were smiling at himself.

The thief is going to cry.

Just when the thief was thinking about whether he should take off the animal skin on his body and return it to these big brothers, a gray-haired hare suddenly jumped out of the depths of the cave.

The hare and the thief gathered more than ten steps together, probably also stunned, I didn't expect that there would be erect apes in this place besides myself.

Looking at the thief again, when he saw the hare, he breathed a sigh of relief and his eyes lit up, and he said, "Your mother's rabbit cub dares to scare me! Don't run! Come and let me take a bite!"

The rabbit turned around and ran away without saying a word.

What do you think, how can the thief let this go?

He was already hungry, and when he saw the food, he didn't chase it.

So, the thief threw off his footsteps and chased forward.

The rabbit ran in front, and the thief chased after him.

After this chase, the thief didn't care where he was.

The cave is very large, and there is still a lot of depth in it.

The road went back and forth in all directions, and finally, the foodie was terrible, especially a hungry foodie, only to see, the thief suddenly accelerated a pounce, the rabbit couldn't dodge, and was held in the arms of the thief and pressed under him.

Stood up and grabbed the hare and scolded loudly: "Run, run, you little rabbit cub, I..."

The thief froze before he finished speaking, because, in front of him, he saw a terrible scene.
