Zhuang Rui's trick has always worked well, but this time it didn't work. King Kong, who originally only made a "whimpering" sound, sat down on the ground, beat his chest and cried loudly, acting like a child.
.
"Damn, I made my brother sad too..."
Seeing King Kong's appearance, Zhuang Rui also felt sad. He had been living on this desert island for almost a month. Calculating the time, his wife might have given birth by now. Thinking of his relatives, Zhuang Rui burst into tears.
Done.
Although their starting points were different, they were both missing their relatives. The two primate creatures sat on the ground and burst into tears.
After a long time, King Kong stopped his sadness first, stood up and moved the big stone back. On this island, no one except him could move the big stone away and disturb his relatives.
But Zhuang Rui couldn't hold on anymore, thinking that he would probably never see his mother, wife and children again in this life, so he would stay on the desert island and become a savage. Zhuang Rui couldn't hold back his tears, and they fell down in a steady stream.
It actually made King Kong a little bit at a loss.
"Hoo ho!"
King Kong pulled Zhuang Rui with his hand, raised his arms, and after a few movements, pointed to the mountain, as if telling Zhuang Rui that there was something interesting there.
Holding back the sadness in his heart, Zhuang Rui stood up. He couldn't think about this. He couldn't live any longer if he thought about it. He was very lucky to survive the waves of the sea.
Seeing that Zhuang Rui stopped crying, King Kong screamed happily and ran up the mountain at the lead, turning back to signal Zhuang Rui to follow.
To be honest, Zhuang Rui had no intention of playing anymore at this moment, and there was no need to continue exploring this extinct volcano. He followed King Kong just because he didn't want to make this big guy with the intelligence of a five- or six-year-old kid angry.
After walking for more than ten minutes, we were not too far from the top of the mountain. Seven or eight meters directly in front of Zhuang Rui, a dark cave entrance appeared.
The entrance of the cave is not very big, only one meter square, but Zhuang Rui took a look with his spiritual energy and found that the cave was actually extremely deep, so deep that he could not see the end of it within his 500-meter spiritual energy detection range.
Although the cave was pitch black, it could not block the detection of Zhuang Rui's spiritual energy.
The floor of the cave is uneven, and it seems a little narrow at first. But the further inside, the wider the cave becomes. At a depth of two to three hundred meters, it is already more than ten meters high, and it branches out into many branches, extending in all directions, like
Like a maze.
There are also streams in the cave, and there are a lot of stalactites growing on the top of the cave, with strange shapes. If this appeared in China, after development, it would definitely become an excellent tourist attraction.
However, during the process of releasing the spiritual energy, Zhuang Rui felt that the released spiritual energy was continuously decreasing, which made him a little strange, so he quickly took the spiritual energy back.
"Could that sheepskin be the route map in the cave?"
Zhuang Rui, who had withdrawn his spiritual energy, was still thinking about the twists and turns of the terrain in the cave. Suddenly, a light flashed in his mind. He remembered the piece of leather he found in the wooden house, the messy lines on it, and the complicated lines in the cave.
They are actually 70-80% similar.
The more he thought about it, the more Zhuang Rui felt like it. The leather had no markings on it, only lines drawn around it, which were most likely the route map in the cave.
This discovery made Zhuang Rui a little excited. Pirate treasures are a temptation that no one in the world can resist. For hundreds of years, countless people have excavated on some famous pirate islands, just to uncover the inexplicable secrets of those famous pirates.
Lost treasure.
Although Zhuang Rui was not short of money, he did not mind having too much money. Even though it was useless to ask for money on this desert island, Zhuang Rui was still so excited about his discovery that he wanted to crawl into the cave.
For others, entering this cave is no less than entering a maze, especially when it is pitch dark inside. Even if you hold a torch to mark the cave, you may not be able to find the way back when you turn back.
But for Zhuang Rui, these are not problems. Even if he goes out of the aura's field of vision, Zhuang Rui can still get out, and he can also find the fastest way to the depths of the cave.
"Ouch!"
King Kong didn't know what Zhuang Rui was doing, but after seeing Zhuang Rui trying to get into the cave, he jumped to the entrance of the cave and waved his arms to prevent Zhuang Rui from entering.
"King Kong, what's wrong?"
Zhuang Rui was a little strange. He had just used his spiritual energy to see that there didn't seem to be any danger in the cave. The most likely possibility was to get lost in it, but this was not a problem at all for him.
"Hoo ho..."
King Kong looked a little anxious and picked up a fist-sized stone from the ground. Then he took a sneaky look into the cave, raised his long arm and threw it hard into the cave.
The stone hit the rock wall and made a dull sound, but the scene that followed left Zhuang Rui stunned, because the originally quiet cave became boiling with the stone.
You can see from the entrance of the cave that a large black shadow suddenly appeared in the cave, flying overwhelmingly in the cave, and even a few black shadows flew outside the entrance of the cave.
"Holy shit, bat?!"
Zhuang Rui now knows why the spiritual energy has decreased for no reason. It turns out that it was absorbed into the body by these bats. The bats hanging upside down on the cave roof did not attract Zhuang Rui's attention at the time. He thought they were some protrusions.
of stones.
Looking at the dense black shadows in the cave, Zhuang Rui couldn't help but feel his scalp numb. Although bats live on mosquitoes, there are still vampire bats in the world. This is not a legend, but a real creature.
Zhuang Rui didn't know if the bats in the cave were vampire bats. If so, it would cause great trouble to his cave exploration trip.
Bats naturally like the dark night, so the sunlight outside made them scream immediately, and the sound was very unpleasant.
However, King Kong who was waiting outside the cave was very excited. Before the bats could fly back, he slapped them with his hands and slapped them one by one to the ground.
King Kong's arms were extremely powerful, and the bat he hit suddenly became bloody and bloody, and it looked like it was no longer alive.
King Kong's next move made Zhuang Ruizhi feel a little sick, because King Kong directly grabbed the bat on the ground with his palm and stuffed it into his mouth. Red blood dripped down King Kong's big mouth.
"Ouch..."
Seven or eight bats were not enough for King Kong to stuff between his teeth, but this guy hadn't forgotten about Zhuang Rui, so he actually saved the last one, took it and put it to Zhuang Rui's mouth.
"Go, go, I won't eat this..."
Seeing the bat that looked similar to a mouse, Zhuang Rui quickly pushed away King Kong's hand, but snatched the bat away because Zhuang Rui wanted to see if it was a vampire bat.
Zhuang Rui learned in biology class that vampire bats are not very big, with the largest body length not exceeding 9 centimeters, and their unexposed tail fur is mainly dark brown.
The appearance of vampire bats is easy to identify. There is a "U"-shaped groove on the top of their noses. The tips of their ears are triangular. The canine teeth are long and sharp. The upper incisors are well developed, slightly triangular, sharp as a knife, and can stab.
Wear the protrusions of other animals to get satiated.
"Fortunately, it's not a vampire bat..."
After Zhuang Rui carefully inspected the dead bat, he felt relieved that it was a very common big-eared bat that lived on mosquitoes and would not attack humans.
But the cave full of bats also gave Zhuang Rui a headache. He was completely intact, but even if he was accidentally caught by these bats, he would probably be infected with the virus.
Use fire and smoke to drive it away? That is simply unrealistic. The depth of the cave must be at least five hundred meters, so how much firewood will be used?
And I don’t know if there is another exit from this cave. If I finish my work and the air can circulate elsewhere, then Zhuang Rui won’t cry to death?
"King Kong, how about we go in and play?"
After Zhuang Rui thought about it for a long time, he still had no solution. He immediately focused on King Kong's head. This guy was rough and thick-skinned. Bats shouldn't be able to do anything to him, right?
"Hoo ho!"
King Kong's reaction was somewhat beyond Zhuang Rui's expectations. The guy shook his head repeatedly and put his head in his hands, apparently very afraid of the cave.
Zhuang Rui didn't know that when King Kong was a child, he ran into a cave once because of his naughtiness, but was driven out by countless bats, which almost blinded him.
From then on, King Kong only dared to throw stones at the entrance of the cave, catch a few bats and eat them to vent his hatred, and let them enter the cave again, even if they were killed.
Zhuang Rui was a little reluctant. The map made him feel itchy. If he didn't go in and check it out, he might not be able to sleep well at night.
Seeing Zhuang Rui walking around at the entrance of the cave, King Kong's eyes flickered, he grabbed Zhuang Rui, pointed at the cave, and then pointed towards the cave.
"Is there any other place I can go in?"
After spending such a long time with King Kong, it can be said that Zhuang Rui's understanding of gorilla body language is definitely as good as that of the scientist who has studied gorillas for decades.
"Hoo ho!" King Kong nodded repeatedly.
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go..."
The cave was indeed spreading upwards. Maybe there was an entrance at the top of the mountain. Zhuang Rui followed King Kong excitedly and ran up the mountain.
It takes more than ten minutes to climb up the gentle slope of 500 to 600 meters. The top of the mountain is very open, about 300 to 400 square meters in size. There are still traces of the volcano, and it is sunken into a hole 45 meters deep, with no grass growing inside.
.
King Kong did not stop at the top of the mountain, but ran to the other side. He ran down for only two or three minutes, and after running a hundred or two hundred meters at most, King Kong stopped in front of a rock wall covered with vines.
"Hey, is this your old home?"
Zhuang Rui couldn't help but laugh when he saw King Kong push aside the vines and reveal a cave entrance. He had already seen it with his spiritual energy. There were many sugar cane poles in the cave. King Kong must have lived here before he knew him.
The cave seemed to be only a dozen meters deep, but Zhuang Rui used his spiritual energy to discover that there was actually a hole of fifty or sixty centimeters in diameter behind the innermost rock of the cave.
What appeared behind the hole was exactly the same as what was seen on the other side of the mountain, a maze of twists and turns in the mountain.
Zhuang Rui was not in a hurry to check the situation in the maze, but followed King Kong into the cave.
Fortunately, there is no unpleasant smell like a cat or a badger. The inside of the cave is very dry, and there are still a few slits where the holes are blocked, allowing for very good air circulation inside.
"King Kong, push this stone away, I want to go in..."
Zhuang Rui released his spiritual energy and took a look two to three hundred meters away from the cave entrance. There was no decrease in spiritual energy. In other words, there were no living organisms in the cave here.
"Ouch!"
King Kong gestured wildly with his arms, as if he didn't want Zhuang Rui to go in. He just stayed by the stone and didn't make a move.
"King Kong, it's okay. I'll come out after a while. Well... I'll come out and grill you some meat..."
Hearing the barbecue, King Kong drooled from the corner of his mouth. He immediately beat his chest and moved the huge stone weighing four to five hundred kilograms away from the statue, exposing the entrance of the cave.
"King Kong, wait for me here. I'll be out in a moment..."
The hole was too small, Zhuang Rui had no problem getting in, but King Kong couldn't get in. Zhuang Rui was afraid that King Kong would become uncomfortable in the dark, so he simply let him wait outside and got in alone.
The cave road here is exactly the opposite of the upward road on the other side. It is a downward road, and after walking more than ten meters, the space becomes wider, and each cave appears in Zhuang Rui's aura.
"Which way to go?"
Zhuang Rui stood still after going a hundred meters deep. He was now in a large cave more than ten meters high. In the center of the cave, there was a small pool. The sound of water dripping from it was heard in this empty space.
The cave looks very clear.
"Grandma's, isn't it some thousand-year-old stalactite?"
Zhuang Rui thought of the stories in martial arts novels. Many heroes were forced by their enemies and trapped in desperate situations. Then they obtained the thousand-year stalactite and advanced their skills to take revenge.
Shaking his head at his boring thoughts, Zhuang Rui raised his head and looked up. A stalactite as thick as a child's arm was hanging down from the top of the cave. If a spotlight could be installed here, it would definitely be a stalactite.
Excellent tourist attraction.
A total of six forks appeared around the cave, which made Zhuang Rui hesitate. He didn't know which fork he should go to.
"Take another look with your spiritual energy, don't get into the bat's nest..."
Zhuang Rui calmed down, stood in the cave, and released his spiritual energy. In addition to the road he came from, Zhuang Rui was ready to use his spiritual energy to check the other side roads.
"This one doesn't lead to the bat nest, this one doesn't, damn, this one leads to the bat nest..."
Zhuang Rui looked at three forked roads in succession. One was blocked by rocks after more than two hundred meters, the other was leading to the top of the mountain, and the third was probably on the opposite side of the mountain.
"What...what is this?"
When Zhuang Rui looked at the fourth fork in the road, he suddenly froze, and a golden light seemed to appear in his eyes. Well, he saw a ball of golden light!
