Chapter 197 Suspicious Traces

Because there are a lot of emissaries and their families living in the tribe, I have to be on guard.

After we arrived first, we tied up the alpaca in the woods.

"Brother Lu Fei, are you going to the top of waterfall Mountain?" Zhang Yutong ran over to ask.

"You must go up there, or you will be in great fear."

"Then I'll go with you."

"Don't go. We have plenty of people now. Don't run after me wherever there's danger, as you used to."

"All right, then." Zhang Yutong nodded behind his back.

I pointed to the women; "There's no more work for you here now, so you'd better go home."

"Well, be careful." Zhang Yutong urged.

I said, let Zhebe with nine people left behind, the rest of the climb with me up the waterfall mountain.

Halfway through, I heard them blow a horn, and I quickly stopped them.

Then ten of them fired a few shots at the top of the waterfall hill, and when the horns blew again, we went up again.

When we reached the flat ground above The Falls, we took a careful look. After making sure there was nothing suspicious, he crossed the waterfall to the meadow on the other side.

During the search, some barefoot footprints were found. It receded toward the sinkhole.

It makes me congratulate myself for being so cautious.

"They can't have gone far. Let's chase them down the sinkhole tunnel." I waved my hand.

Most of the people have never been here, they've been right behind. When we arrived at the entrance of the sinkhole, we saw many obvious footprints again.

"Chief." A member of the treehouse tribe ran up to him and asked, "Shall we wait until Cui Bin and his crew arrive before we go down?"

"We can't wait for them. They have come to work. We have come to relieve danger."

"I'll go first, then." "He volunteered.

"I'm the leader. I'll go first." Leading, in the aboriginal world, is one of the most important indicators of leadership.

He stopped me and said, "Because you are the leader, you cannot go first. It doesn't matter if the horde doesn't have me. If the leader doesn't have me, the horde will fall into trouble."

I'd also like to argue that he has taken possession of the entrance to the sinkhole passage. I had to do what he said. Half the staff, I followed down.

We grew cautious as we approached the cave. Conventional wisdom says those guys are probably hiding in a cave.

Get the man with the rifle out of the line, and on the word, everyone fire inside.

There was nothing but the echo of the gun.

"What shall we do, chief?

"You take ten men and guard here. I'll take the rest to the bottom of the sinkhole." I looked at him. "What's your name again?"

"Oh, my name is Jombu. Does the chief not know my name?" He was confused. He was a young man in his twenties, short and stocky.

"Know, just just suddenly can't remember." I dissembled.

He grinned. Admonishing him to be careful, I went on with the remaining twenty.

Upon reaching the bottom of the sinkhole, more suspicious traces were found. A lot of stones by the pond were turned over, and there were fish in the pond again.

Then I went to the place where we used to build our shack in a pile of rocks. There were a lot of fish bones on the rocks and a lot of brown and black hair inside. It smells like sweat. It made me think of those savages we met when we went to the other world.

The others, after searching elsewhere, said they could not find it, and soon gathered around me.

Go to the door of the house at the bottom of the sinkhole, arrange two people to stay behind, leading others to continue to search. I've looked everywhere, but I can't find anything.

Because the inside of the house had been searched by the big tribe, and it was a mess. Covered in dust and cobwebs, there was no sign of biological activity.

Back outside, I asked everyone to find a place to rest, waiting for Cui Bin and their arrival.

And I climbed up the cliff to observe the stone crevice that led to the other world. The sticky hairs on them seemed to indicate that they had gone back to another world.

But I had no intention of pursuing it, for there was a little hole in the middle of the passage, and we had to get there on our stomachs, and if the Savages were there, it would be very dangerous for us. But to scare them, I fired two shots into the crevice.

"Chief, are they in there?" Zong Bu ran over eagerly, raised his head and asked.

I put the gun away, dropped it to the ground and said, "They should be in there. We'll just stay here and watch."

"Let me go in with some men and kill them. Will not the chief go there again?"

"How do you know?" I was surprised.

"Everybody knows that." He was even more surprised than I was. "Oh, it's someone we've been here with before, everyone knows."

What he meant was that only us survivors and the treehouse tribe knew that I was going to the other side to find Li Wanxue.

I nodded and let him go on to rest.

About an hour later, Cui Bin and his crew still had not come, so I took two of them to guard the stone crevice and took the others into the water to catch fish. Compared to going out to sea, fishing here is a godsend.

After catching the small fish, I asked everyone to keep them with the canteen they carry. After going back, we can build a fish soup, which can ensure that we have fresh water fish to eat all the year round.

Pond can no longer see the shadow of the fish, we have on the shore, piled together to have a hundred pounds. At this time Cui Bin also appeared with people in the sinkhole channel above.

When they came down, I explained the situation.

"The savages followed us, did they?"

"Not much. We've been back so long." I said, "But maybe they searched for us and found some tracks we left along the way."

"That's right, then." "They think we can cross the desert and so can they," Cui said. I always got the feeling those savages were a mess. Being chased by those cavalrymen muscle man met?"

"This is probably, can use guns, you can imagine that they are quite high level of civilization. Wildlings can be taken and used as playthings."

"Are you sure you don't want to go into the crevice?"

"No, we'd be dead if we went in there. Just take down the stone ladder. Let them live here as long as they don't go up the waterfall."

Cui Bin pointed at me with a strange smile: "You want to play hard to get. Let them settle down here now, and then we will suddenly kill them."

"Something like this might happen when we go to the other side." If the wildlings are going to settle in the sinkhole, I'll have to. If they retreat halfway to the next world, we'll be all right.

Cui Bin nodded: "Then let's start working."

I nodded. Everyone unloads their stuff and arranges their own. After making preparations, we began to dismantle the stone ladder together. While I continue to defend the perimeter with men with guns.

It's not a job that can be done in a day or two. When it gets dark, we'll camp here. The next day I took ten men down Waterfall Mountain. Go back with Zhebie and arrange for everyone to continue to repair the canal.

Because the quality of the canal is not too great, only two meters wide and one meter deep is enough, all together, we can build at least 2,000 meters a day. The speed is increased by the fact that there are many slopes near the Waterfall Mountain, and it is easy to dig a channel in the valley.

After working for two days, I saw Cui Bin and the others had not returned, so I went up to check the situation.

When I got to the gap, I suddenly saw some hairy guys eagerly coming out of the cracks in the rocks, one by one, directly jumping off the cliff, looking terrified.

I shouted, quickly took out my gun and shot at them, but missed.

I had to lead people to speed up close to the gap, Cui Bin they have already disassembled the stone ladder almost. They were already on the alert. The savages quickly hid themselves behind rocks.

Down the rope, I went to cui Bin's side: "have you seen, a total of how many?"

"More than a dozen, I don't know." "They were screaming together just now. I don't know what happened," Cui said.
