Chapter 70 Who Is Right

Because a year has not come, the cave is full of ash and cobwebs and looks a little dirty.

The fighters cleaned up a little.

Litu spread a piece of animal skin on the ground and let Ye Xi sit down.

Ye Xi was used to this kind of treatment from the tribe, so he sat up without any excuses.

The other warriors could not rest, and they began to deal with the prey that came today.

The soldiers dissected their prey, discarded the internal organs, and drained the blood. They must reduce the weight of their prey as much as possible to bring back more.

The smell of blood in the cave was tangy for a while.

The sky outside is getting more and more dark clouds, and the sky is completely overcast.

Rumble.

The dark clouds that had been brewing for a long time finally sounded the first thunder.

It didn't take long for it to rain outside, and it was pouring rain.

There was a muddy smell in the air.

Soldiers brought dissected prey to the rain.

They want to remove the bloody smell from their prey as much as possible, so as not to be targeted by predators when they return.

Li Tu did not know which corner of the cave to find a large stone pot, rinsed the stone pot in the rain, and directly received half the pot of rainwater after washing it. After a simple stove was built with stones by the fire, the broth was boiled in a stone pot.

Gulugulu, blisters bubbling in the stone pot, and the aroma of the meat permeates the air.

The warriors chiseled several rough wooden bowls out of wood, and each filled a large bowl of broth and drank it loudly.

They were hungry and thirsty after hunting for so long, and the pot of broth at this time soothed them greatly.

The thunder rumbled outside, the rain continued, and the soldiers in the cave drank broth and chatted.

"How about Xiaote, has it been eaten by the leopards?" Ye Xi turned and asked Putai.

When being chased by the leopards, everyone was forced to climb a tree, but Xiaote was so huge that he couldn't climb a tree, so Putai had no choice but to let him escape.

He was a little worried about Xiaote, but Putai was always busy, and it was not until now that Ye Xi found a chance to ask Putai when he was free.

Xiaote is Putai's pet, and he can sense whether Xiaote is alive or dead.

Putai shook his head: "I can feel it's not dead. The leopard group was targeting us at that time, and would not specifically attack Xiaote, the terrifying beast."

"Why do the leopards attack us?"

Ye Xi was a little puzzled, if the leopard group chose another target to attack, the success rate would be higher. Why choose them? And so persistent? In the end, he was not even willing to cross the cliff to attack them.

Putai smiled bitterly: "Last year, our hunting team killed their leader by accident. This year they are probably here to take revenge. I didn't expect them to take revenge like this. Da Hong even fell off a cliff because of it."

Speaking of this, Ye Xi's expression became a little sad.

When the soldier fell off the cliff holding the black panther, he wished he could save him.

"Don't be sad, it is common for soldiers to be injured or even die while hunting." Putai comforted Ye Xi instead.

"If I can fire both arrows, maybe he doesn't have to die."

"It's not your fault, Ye Xi."

Ye Xi twitched the corners of his mouth and didn't speak, but silently decided in his heart that he must practice bow and arrow diligently after returning home. If this happens again, he will not be helpless.

Putai noticed that Ye Xi was still blaming himself, paused, and asked, "Have you noticed that there are very few older warriors in the tribe."

Ye Xi was startled.

Thinking about it this way, yes, there seem to be not many fighters over the age of 50, and fighters over the age of 60 can even be counted on five fingers.

"them……"

"The mortality rate of soldiers is really high." Putai sighed, "especially a small tribe like us that is not very powerful."

Putai looked out of the cave, and the dangerous jungle was now covered by a rain screen.

"This jungle is really too dangerous, and there are many terrifying predators lurking in it. Even if you become a warrior, you will not be able to get in your teeth when you encounter those creatures. That's why the chief was so opposed to you becoming a warrior."

"You don't have to be too sad. Even if Da Hong survives, he will die in five or ten years."

"It's me, I don't know how old I can live and how much prey I can hunt for the tribe." Speaking of which, Putai's voice was stunned, and his expression was a bit vicissitudes.

Ye Xi comforted: "No, Uncle Pu, you will live a long time."

Putai laughed: "Little guy, you have always been so mature, and I didn't expect to say such childish words."

Ye Xi frowned and immediately wanted to refute.

"Ye Xi, listen." Putai didn't wait for him to speak, and became serious, "This world is too dangerous, too dangerous."

"It's like being attacked by a group of black panthers today. As long as there is one point, our entire second hunting team will be here today."

"Do you think today is a special situation? No, this is our daily life, the daily life of soldiers."

"You are not allowed to participate in the hunt this time, are you very unconvinced in private?"

"That's because you are all too immature. Once you encounter an unexpected situation and you can't react in time, it will be a dead word. Only when you are more familiar with the rules of this jungle and apply your abilities more skillfully, I can let you rest assured. Take part in the hunt."

"Especially you, Ye Xi, your potential is enough to make you a fourth-level warrior, or even a fifth-level warrior. I can't let you have any mistakes, do you understand?"

Ye Xi lowered his head and was silent for a moment.

After a while, he raised his head: "A sharpened weapon is a weapon."

Putai was startled.

"Isn't a warrior growing up and breaking through from the edge of life and death? If I don't face danger all the time, can I really break through to a fourth-level warrior, or even a fifth-level warrior?"

Putai's eyes widened slightly, he wanted to refute but didn't know how to refute.

Because the reason why he broke through to a second-level warrior himself was because he once encountered a giant ape and broke through when he was on the verge of life and death.

Looking at Ye Xi's tender but firm eyebrows, Putai lost his voice. He murmured and repeated, is the sharpened weapon a weapon?

After a long while, he said, "Maybe you are right."

Soldiers are too precious to Tu Shan. They don't want to lose any of them. They are just like big birds that take care of their chicks and refuse to let them out of their nests. Perhaps because of this, he lost the opportunity to sharpen new warriors.

Therefore, for so long, they have only produced two second-level warriors from Tushan.

What exactly is right?

Putai was upset for a while, he stood up suddenly, walked to the entrance of the cave, and watched the heavy rain.

Ye Xi also came over and stood beside him.

Outside the rain screen, there are huge earthworms rolling happily in the rain.

It loves the rain.

The land is arched like a hill, and the body as thick as a rhino is constantly drilling in and out of the wet soil.

"What is this?" Ye Xi's eyes widened in horror.

But Putai was very calm: "That's a big earthworm. It eats insects and won't attack people."

Ye Xi looked at the big earthworm, his eyes still wide open.

How could there be such a big earthworm, it's too scary!

The soldiers who washed their prey in the rain should have seen it, but they were all calm, as if they had not seen it. They should have long known that this big earthworm does not attack people.

Ye Xi slowly regained his composure, trying to make himself accept the astonishing fact that prehistoric earthworms were so huge.

The dark clouds in the sky were thick, and there was no sign that they were about to disperse.

Putai looked at the sky and said regretfully, "It seems that this rain won't happen for a while..."

Before he could finish speaking, a white silk thread suddenly struck like electricity from nowhere, and slammed into the ankle of a soldier who was cleaning his prey!

Before everyone could react, the soldier was dragged by the white silk thread and dragged into the depths of the jungle at a very fast speed.
