A subjugated princess will never die a vagabond

At this moment, those golden-red monkeys came over with their tails between their legs, and Cloris was alarmed. Just as she was about to pick up the crossbow, the monkeys stopped a few meters away, formed a circle, raised their hands and began to dance: "Whoa, whoa, whoa."

It seems to be celebrating and grateful.

……

At the other end, the ape with its left eye pierced led the team into the dense forest and began to return to the camp. It had blood on its face, and several apes murmured behind their backs, holding up bone fragments and wooden poles one after another.

At this time, the ape suddenly turned its head, and it pulled out the branch directly above the eye. Eyeballs were strung on the branch, and with a bloody flower, it stabbed straight at the mumbling typical one!

"Woooo—" the ape was blinded by the branches, and the screams startled the birds.

This is not over yet, the one-eyed ape snatched the stone from the subordinate, and opened the screaming upper and lower jaws——

"Boom!" He broke his teeth.

"Boom!" She rubbed her tongue.

"Oh!"

"Oh!"

"Oh!"

The wailing continued for a long time without stopping.

56. Monkey with fire

Starting from the cave where Cloris hides (point), through the rainforest on the opposite side of the col, across a turbulent river at the end of the rainforest, over the low hills behind the river, on the top of the mountain covered by lush forests, about seven hours Beyond the distance, there are more than [-] ape populations living there.

The gray and black monkeys built simple ape huts on the big trees, polished rocks and animal bones to make tools, and cut wooden poles to use as sticks, driving more than 100 golden red monkeys and more than 200 other monkeys. Used as cannon fodder for hunting ferocious beasts.

They found several types of seeds that could be planted, and they were randomly buried on the gentle slope of the back mountain, and the monkeys were driven to take care of them.The flowers and fruits planted cannot meet the needs of the group. It is just that the apes love this kind of food and are too lazy to search for it. Therefore, they collect the seeds and sow them near the settlements. This is a luxury that only leaders and big shots can enjoy.

Among the towering giant trees, on the platform with gnarled branches and intertwined vines, the apes built a spacious and tall ape hut with rattan, broad leaves and wooden blocks. A bonfire was lit on the ground paved with vines. The fat, two-meter-long ape was grilling food.In front of it are little monkeys that are breathing out but not breathing in, with blood dripping from their deflated bellies, and several female apes nursing their cubs are waiting around.

A one-eyed ape came up. It lowered its back and lowered its head, not daring to reveal the hostility in its eyes.The fat gray and black ape roared "WOOOOOO", and finally picked up a stone and threw it at the one-eyed ape, smashing its nose and face bruised.

"Woo!" The one-eyed ape lay on the ground, kissed each other's toes, and was kicked away again.

"Woooo!" The fat ape stood up, and the sound resounded throughout the settlement.

"Woo! Woo! Woo!" All the gray-black apes roared furiously, while the rest of the monkeys trembled.

"Woo!" At this moment, a slender gray-black ape came out. It opened its mouth wide, chewed the bone fragments in its hands with its sharp teeth, and beat its chest, surrounded by several younger brothers.

"Oh." The fat ape nodded, sat on the soft animal skin wooden chair again, and began to enjoy the food.

……

Cloris is followed by a group of monkeys.

If it weren't for seeing that these golden-red monkeys were much gentler than the gray-black apes and showed enough respect to herself, the girl would have counted one of them and wiped off their necks.

"Don't follow me anymore!" Cloris kicked a monkey away gently.

After chatting with each other for a while, the monkeys kept a distance from Cloris, but still followed them from a distance. Along the way, they collected tall grass stems, peeled bark off trees with their sharp claws, and picked up fallen branches. and broad leaves, picking them up as they walked, and when Cloris reached the wetland in the col, the group of monkeys had woven crude backpacks out of stems and leaves, stuffed with stuff.

These monkeys are much thinner than the apes, and their strength is relatively weak, but they can survive in the wilderness, and their overall physique must be better than the current Cloris.At least Cloris, who didn't have the touch of the void, couldn't compare to such an adult monkey in terms of pure power.

The sunset was about to set, and it was approaching night again. Cloris returned to the cave along the climbing vines. The monkeys tried to follow, but this time, she was kicked out mercilessly by the girl.

Firstly, she has no habit of living in the same cave with monkeys; secondly, she is not sure whether these monkeys who are smart enough to weave are really grateful to their saviors, or are they hiding some dark and dirty thoughts, the farmer and the snake In the end, those gray and black apes who escaped are hidden dangers after all, and I don’t know if they have more companions. If there are another twenty or thirty such things, Cloris doesn’t want to bring a few burdens The monkeys run away together.

The six golden-red monkeys finally chose to stay in the woods on the other side of the cave. They gnawed at the tree trunk with their claws and teeth. A monkey waded through the water, opened the curtain of the cave, and put two fist-sized purple fruits at the entrance of the cave.

Cloris didn't dare to eat something of unknown origin, so without saying a word, she called Little Mingyu over: "Here, here it is for you."

Although I have never eaten this kind of purple fruit, most of the fierce beasts have the nature of seeking good luck and avoiding evil. After taking a light bite, Xiao Mingyu puffed up his cheeks and twitched twice. The sour feeling was surprisingly good, and his teeth quickly worked. The paper shredder is average, and it shreds the fruit into the stomach in two or three strokes.

It rubbed the remaining fruit on the ground with its fins, and pushed it to Cloris without much sincerity.

"It's all for you," Cloris said.

After receiving such instructions, Xiao Mingyu didn't show any pretense, and immediately pushed the fruit into the cave.

"It seems to be really edible?" Cloris looked suspiciously at the back of the little ghost fish.

But she didn't see any purple fruit growing anywhere along the way, and she didn't know which corner the group of monkeys dug out from.

The girl opened a gap in the rattan curtain and peeped in the direction of the monkeys, her bright eyes widened instantly——

Those monkeys are making a fire!

The trick that she didn't know about the majestic and terrifying upright apes has been easily realized by this group of monkeys!

In the lower realm, fire has a very good effect on repelling poisonous substances such as snakes, insects, rats and ants, and even for slightly weaker beasts, fire light can also play a deterrent and defensive role.In the wasteland layer with short days and long nights, there are mostly nocturnal creatures. They are more sensitive to light sources and usually avoid fires.

Of course, flying insects, birds and beasts who like to fight fire are indispensable, but for explorers, it is always safer to have fire than no fire.

Cloris couldn't sit still anymore, she picked up the oil lamp, picked up some strange bird livers that didn't taste too good, waded to the monkeys' camp, pointed to the fire, and handed the liver to the one who looked relatively The older monkey.

The girl wore an "innocent" smile, so sweet that people could recall her first love. She squinted her eyes and asked cheekily, "Can this fire give birth to me?"

The monkeys seemed to be flattered, and a little monkey hooted his liver with a tree branch and grilled it on the fire.The little monkey's barbecue skills were very raw, and the liver was half-baked. It reverently raised the branch above its head, held it in front of Cloris, lay down on the ground, and kissed the girl's toes.

Cloris took the roasted bird liver, she did not stop the little monkey from kissing, her eyes revealed a light of contemplation——

Is this behavior really a courtesy derived from monkeys?

While thinking, Cloris planted the branch on the ground and shook her head at the monkeys.

She took out two pieces of flint and steel from the Ring of the Void, sparking sparks: "Fire, do you understand? Chacha, chacha!"

The group of monkeys was shocked by the fact that Cloris took out something from the whirlpool, they jumped up, and the old monkey immediately understood the meaning of the girl, and shouted: "Chacha! Chacha!" It took out two pieces from the package. A rougher stone also sparked and was handed over to Cloris...

57. Cloris is a monkey

When the old monkey handed the two flint and steel to Cloris, the girl was too shocked to speak.This means that the monkeys already have a relatively complete culture of using fire, and their understanding ability is also extraordinary.

Although the monkey took out two flints against Cloris' original intention, judging from the body language alone, it is completely understandable for the old monkey and the young monkey to react in such a way.

"Fire, do you understand?" Cloris used two flints to spark sparks in front of the fire. Under the crowd of monkeys, she felt more like a monkey than a monkey, "Huh, do you understand? The fire is on." ,call!"

The girl wanted to use a leaf as a demonstration, but the environment was too humid to ignite at all.

The old monkey nodded thoughtfully. It grinned twice at a monkey, and the latter was ordered to run under a tree trunk with two companions to dig and bite. The monkey with the sharp stone flakes was also there. Chisel aside.

It was only then that Cloris noticed that the monkeys dug out a big hole in the thick and thin old tree surrounded by the two, and yellow-brown resin flowed out of the tree hole.One monkey catches the resin with a leaf, while the other holds the sawdust in its palm and squeezes out additional resin.

The monkey handed the resin to Cloris, scooped out part of it with his fingers and applied it to a piece of wood, and ignited it with the almost carbonized branch.

A layer of flames came out lightly.

The old monkey held the leaf and made a gesture of please, asking Cloris to take the resin.

As if she had found a treasure, the girl nodded her thanks and was about to leave when the old monkey grabbed her arm.

"Anything else?"

"Oh." The old monkey handed the branch with the bird's liver to Cloris.

"This is for you." Cloris gestured to eat, and then handed the branch to the little monkey.

The old monkey scratched its head, and pulled the girl to ask her to wait a while. It called the monkey who was chipping the cork pole with a stone, and took out a rope made of grass stems and a sharp stone from the woven bag of leaves. Get your hands dirty and have another monkey punch a hole in a wood chip.

Cloris wondered what kind of tricks these monkeys were playing. After a quarter of an hour, the old monkey assembled the various parts into a small bow and arrow——

Bow drill!

For a moment, Cloris felt that she was a monkey.

The old monkey put some dry leaves under the bow drill to make tinder, and dripped a few drops of resin. He took Cloris and taught her to drill wood to make fire.

"..."

Cloris felt the enthusiasm of the monkeys, but an inexplicable sense of humiliation was slowly rising from the bottom of her heart.

Resin is probably something that supports combustion. In a humid environment, a little spark from the flint may not be effective, so the old monkey gave the bow drill he made to the girl, in case this monkey with only a long head and a hairy head still burns in the end. There is no fire.

Cloris returned to the cave with the bow drill and resin with complicated emotions. She ignited the tinder according to the method taught by the old monkey, and then added leaves and branches and other combustibles one by one. Looking at the blazing bonfire, the girl didn't have a trace of it. sense of accomplishment.

Cloris changed into a vest and shorts, and dried the soaked clothes by the fire. She left a gap for the vines, and when the dawn dawned, the girl ushered in the third day of the wasteland layer.

This is the cold season in the mist layer. During this time period, the morning light on the wasteland layer will last for about two hours, and the evening will last for an hour and a half. Norris is actually active for a little longer.

The little ghost fish can't fly, so it can only stay in the cave all the time. It regards Cloris as its new feeder heartlessly. It spends four-fifths of the day sleeping, and the rest of the time it hugs the animal Dan was in a daze.Only when he felt hungry, the little dark fish would sit in the refrigerator and wait for Cloris to feed it the blue monster bird meat. After eating, he defecated in the corner and continued to sleep with the animal eggs.

At the end of the day, Cloris didn't get any real results. The first goal of living in the wilderness, "making a fire", had been achieved by the monkeys.

When the morning sun shines, this sense of shame is even more profound.

The little monkey from last night touched the vicinity of the cave in the early morning, and it triggered the bell mechanism. If Cloris hadn't caught it in time with the enhanced Void Touch, the sound of the jingle would have scared it off the cliff.

The little monkey brought a pottery bowl and a pottery plate.

In the bowl was a half-cooked bird liver, which was slightly smaller than what Cloris sent over last night, probably divided among the monkeys.The bird liver was topped with smashed berries and a few mint-like leaves. Not to mention delicious, at least it met the dietary standards of the reformatory.

"?" Cloris' face was full of question marks.

When she pushed back the vines and looked across the valley, the thatched huts made of ancient leaves came into view.

The monkeys had already burned some charcoal, and they brought clay from the lower reaches of the river, and the old monkey was using the clay to build a cylindrical utensil in front of the hut.

"kiln?"

Cloris was stunned. She never believed that this was something that monkeys could develop. There must be people on this island, or there must have been people!

No matter which one, it is impossible for those who can live here without any flying vehicles. Even if the flying vehicles are damaged, it is still the hope for Cloris to leave the desert island!

Cloris didn't care about being reserved, and ran to the monkeys' camp in a hurry. In one night, a stone ax and two stone spears appeared in the monkeys' camp. Which mine picked up the source crystal fragments, which look harder and sharper than pure stones.

These materials don't seem to be products from nearby. Cloris speculates that they are belongings of the monkeys, brought from other places.

While the girl was delighted, her heart also became heavier——

With this level of technology, the golden red monkeys must have developed a large settlement. With the cooperation of these weapons, their combat effectiveness must be good, but just yesterday, they were killed by those gray and black apes and fled in a panic... …

The more surprises the monkeys brought her, the greater the potential threat of those gray and black apes.

The gray and black apes must also belong to their own tribe, and they are even stronger. The few that ran away before, with their cruel and bloodthirsty aggressiveness, will definitely not let it go.

This group of monkeys respected themselves very much. In addition to being grateful, Cloris also thought of a possibility—maybe humans really came to this place and left a legacy, so that the monkeys maintained their respect for humans. worship.

But everything is just speculation, and Cloris needs to figure out this place slowly before she can make a more comprehensive plan.

With such thoughts in mind, she made up her mind and walked towards the old monkey who was chopping wood with stone chips...

58. Ghost Fish Homing

Seeing Cloris' arrival, the old monkey put down his homework, lay down on the ground, and kissed the girl's toes.

Cloris waited for it to stand up, pointed to the nearby woods along the cliff where the cave was located, and said, "You can settle there!"

"Woo?" The old monkey scratched his head blankly, racking his brains to analyze the meaning of the hairless monkey's "call".

Cloris suddenly clapped her small hands, and a big light bulb lit up on her head.

She suspected that her IQ was really hit, so that she didn't think of such a simple method.

The girl stimulated the spirit veins, and the secret text representing the "Phantom" skill on the Touch of the Void was lit up. She first used a stick figure to roughly show the environment near the cave. The old monkey was shocked immediately, and it raised both hands excitedly. Jump around Cloris.

The girl pressed the old monkey's head to make it stop, and then said: "This is, my territory."

She pointed to the cave, drew her own image, and drew a few golden-red monkeys in the nearby woods, pointed to the old monkey and said, "This is your settlement."

Cloris thought for a while, and created a few bouncing gray and black apes in the distance. When they approached, the old monkey bared its teeth, and its eyes flashed with hatred.Then, the phantom representing Cloris also jumped over, killing them one by one with a dagger, leaving a few apes, and the monkeys holding spears swarmed up.

I don't know if the old monkey can understand it, Cloris said: "You obey my order, I will help you beat those apes."

The old monkey was startled, snapped his fingers, and shook his head desperately.

unwilling?

Cloris frowned.

Unexpectedly, the old monkey held up one finger next to the little phantom of the gray-black ape, and then extended four fingers next to the golden-red monkeys.

"You mean, the four of you can only hit one of them?" Cloris adjusted the number of phantoms uncertainly.

Seeing the illusion change, the old monkey immediately nodded his head frantically.

Cloris pursed her lips: "..."
