Chapter 90: Defense Systems

"It is possible that they will learn to make rattan ladders." I said, "But have you ever thought that the highland is at least ten meters away from the bottom? How did they throw the rattan ladder up? Even if you have enough strength to throw the rattan ladder up, how can you ensure that the rattan ladder can be stably stuck in Stone or a big tree?"

Zhang Yutong thought thoughtfully for a moment, nodded and said, "Yes, we lost the rope when we came up. It took a lot of effort."

"The front is the lowest place from the highland to the ground." Luna suddenly shouted at us.

I looked along the direction of her fingers, but what I saw was a high protrusion. After running past, I suddenly found that the other side of the protrusion is a V-shaped slope. There are many mixed traces left there.

After running up and looking carefully, I found that the bottom of V-shape is only about ten meters away from the ground, and the grass there has been completely destroyed, with numerous footprints and other suspicious traces.

"Ah..."

Hearing Luna's shouts of surprise, we quickly gathered around. She took a canine necklace and stroked it carefully.

"To whom does this belong?" Zhang Yutong asked.

When Luna looked up at us, she burst into tears: "It belongs to my mother."

"Don't cry, your mother and other people, they will be fine." Zhang Yutong comforted her and pointed to me and said, "You see that Lu Fei brother's first wife was also taken away together. Didn't he cry?"

Originally, I was very sentimental, but I was a little happy when I heard this sentence.

Luna stared at me, nodded and wiped away tears.

On the ground corresponding to the bottom of the V-shape in the highland, there is the remains of almost nothing but bones. You can know almost everything at a glance that it fell from the mountain. There are also some broken rattan ladders scattered around.

Zhang Yutong came over and said, "Brother Lu Fei, the black monsters must have come up from here."

I also agree with this answer. Black monsters are not only smart, but also have super imitation ability.

"Those rattan ladders belong to our tribe." Luna suddenly came.

"You can see this?" I'm surprised.

Luna nodded affirmatively: "Of course, only our tribe can make this kind of rattan ladder."

Zhang Yutong and I looked at each other and were completely stunned. If the black monsters didn't make rattan ladders, how did they climb up?

However, this problem will not be something that puzzles me for a long time. It's enough that we know where the black monster went up to the highlands.

"Go back and bring some people here tomorrow to solve the problems here."

"Are you going to pack this place up?" Zhang Yutong asked.

"Stuffed up?" I pointed back at the V-shaped slope: "How long will it take? And now it's rainy season, so even if it's stuffed up and it's possible to be washed away. Wouldn't that be a waste of time?"

"Then what are you going to do?" Zhang Yutong took my arm and Luna with the other hand.

I explained: "Of course, it is adapted to local conditions. We will pile up some stones here and dig a big pit on the ground. As long as the black monster dares to come again, we will ensure that they will fall into one by one. Even if they can escape the trap and climb up, we can throw them down with Stone on their way up. It is close to the ground, which is convenient for us to get up and down by ourselves. "

Zhang Yutong agreed and nodded: "This is all right. As long as we kill both the black monster and the humanoid monster, we will be safe on this island."

"I hope so." I'm worried that there will be other strange creatures over the waterfall.

After everyone finished work in the evening, I called everyone together and held a short meeting to ask them all to stop their work and go to work together in the V-shaped mountain tomorrow.

The division of labor is the same as before. Women are responsible for digging holes on the ground, while men search for stones on the high ground. In order to prevent the stones from being washed down during the heavy rain, we also dug a shallow ditch as a diversion channel.

It took only one day to finish the work. Some branches were laid on the big pit in the ground, and then a thin layer of soil and leaves were sprinkled. It only took two or three days, and there was no suspicious sign.

But to be on the safe side, I insist on visiting the V-shaped mountain three times a day, once in the morning, once in the evening. In fact, as long as we don't go down, the black monster won't go up to the highlands at all. Because there is no place to attract them in the highlands.

In the next half month, the gully around the tribe was finally completed, and bamboo arrows were set up in the nearby peripheral woods, and the tribe's defense program was officially announced to be completed.

After dinner, I took Zhang Yutong to find Wuwa, and asked her to take care of animals and cultivate land with the women in the tribe from the next day.

"None of us can plant vegetables." Wuwa widened her eyes and said.

"You have completely forgotten how to cultivate the land, haven’t you?" I know that their tribe can't cultivate it carefully when they live in trees, but I don’t think they can even forget how the land is cultivated.

Wuwa said with a face of approval: "We have not planted land for a long time. When my Abba was still there, he told me that farming is the stupidest job."

"But you can't even eat enough by stealing." Zhang Yutong said.

Wuwa seems to see hope: "Yutong, then you can teach us."

Zhang Yutong smiled very embarrassedly: "I can't farm either, but I will turn over the ground."

"It's okay, the women we brought from the cannibals can cultivate the land. You can just follow them. It's the rainy season, so we have to hurry and plant more land." Ever since I lived on a desert island, the food crisis has been hanging over me.

Wuwa looked extremely reluctant: "Chief, do you want us all to listen to those who have eaten human flesh?"

"It’s not listen to them, just follow them to learn to cultivate the land, and you will soon learn it." I explained: "You should understand that you are second only to me in the tribe."

This sentence made Wuwa very happy. Although she was reluctant, she agreed to come down after all.

After discussing with Wuwa, Zhang Yutong and I walked back together.

"Brother Lu Fei, don't you want me to follow the farming, do you?" Zhang Yutong asked faintly.

"You can keep cooking, now there is nothing in the tribe. From tomorrow on, I will take a few people to find the black monster." I don't want Zhang Yutong to be with me suffering from hardships and dangers all the time.

"I don't want to cook either." Zhang Yutong said unhappily: "I like to follow you, and I will go wherever you go."

"When we find the black monsters, I will take you with me. Until I find them, you will take your own holiday and stay in the tribe well."

"But... I just like staying with you. Just let me go." Zhang Yutong is half shy and half coquetry.

I coughed intentionally and said sternly, "There was no way before, so that you could bear so many dangers with me all the time. You are lucky to survive being caught by cannibals. Do you still expect yourself to be so lucky every time? Li Wanxue's life and death are uncertain. You said what should I do if you let the black monster catch again?"

She snorted. After a moment, she seemed to understand, and promised, "Well, I'll listen to you this time. Sister Wanxue's whereabouts are unknown. If something happens to me again, you will be more sad."

"If only you knew, it would be fine."

Zhang Yutong smiled: "Brother Lu Fei, I can't go, but you have to promise me one thing."

"You say."

Zhang Yutong leaned her body towards me, grabbed me and stood up, then whispered to his ear: "Can we not live with Lucie and Li Ding? The big house where the chief lived before has been repaired. Let's move there."

I thought about it for a while and thought it was quite good. I am already the leader, and in order to maintain my authority, I have to show a little uniqueness in all aspects. As the saying goes, you have to give both kindness and prestige. Too approachable, over time, they don't think I am a leader how important. Especially Li Ding and Lucie, they are all our own people.
