After resting for a while, the baby elephant slowly stood up.
The elephant roared and quickly touched the baby elephant's head with its trunk.
"Oh, it's fine now, don't worry."
The elephant rubbed its trunk on Chen Jie's face to express its gratitude.
Chen Jie reached out and touched the elephant's trunk and stood up.
"I'm going back, and I have to take good care of the baby elephant in the future." Chen Jie reached out and touched the baby elephant's head. He felt pity when he saw the baby elephant just reaching his waist.
If he had just run away, it is not certain whether the baby elephant would have survived.
At this moment, Chen Jie was very happy that he chose to believe in the mother elephant.
The elephant barked twice, rolled up Chen Jie with his trunk, and placed him on top of him.
"Baby, are you going to send me home?" Chen Jie was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized that the elephant's behavior should be to send him home.
The elephant responded and waited for Chen Jie's order.
Chen Jie touched the elephant's ears and spoke in a low voice.
"I don't know where to go, but I want to go there." Chen Jie pointed to the location of the stone steps. Although he didn't have any high hopes, thinking that the elephant could understand him, he still had some hope.
Lucky mentality.
The elephant barked and led the baby towards the stone steps.
With the elephant as a tool, Chen Jie felt a lot more relaxed. He could also look at the surrounding environment along the way.
Except for the old volcano that made Chen Jie a little interested, there was nothing else around. Apart from stones, there were only a few bare trees.
There are a lot of vultures here, squatting there like a sculpture.
The elephant's footsteps were much faster than Chen Jie's, and soon they arrived near the old volcano. The elephant turned directly and took Chen Jie in another direction.
Chen Jie sat on the elephant and naturally discovered that the elephant was taking the wrong route, but Chen Jie still chose to believe in the elephant.
Because he was convinced that since elephants could live here and get bananas for him, it meant that there must be places here that he could not see or explore.
Sure enough, after bypassing several big rocks, the elephant took Chen Jie to a river. There were not only banana trees, but also several fruit trees around. Chen Jie didn't see the variety of the fruits, but they were very similar to pepper fruits.
It looks bright red.
The elephant came to the stream and rolled Chen Jie down with its trunk, letting him stand safely next to the river. The elephant used its trunk to suck the water from the river and poured it back on the baby elephant.
The baby elephant also imitated the elephant, sucking water with its trunk, but the spray was not as good as the elephant's, and it sprayed on Chen Jie's body.
"Little guy, you are going to give me a bath." Chen Jie smiled, took off his shoes, and walked into the river. Drinking the cold water made him energetic. He reached out to hold up the river water and washed it.
Wash your dusty hair.
After washing his hair, Chen Jie went upstream in the river, filled the bamboo tube, and drank heavily.
"Baby, it's time for me to go home, even though I really miss you." Chen Jie walked to the elephant, reached out and hugged the elephant, and said reluctantly.
It was almost evening, and if I didn't go back, I would probably have to go back in disgrace, and it would be terrible if I ran into the wolves again.
The elephant nodded, as if he understood what Chen Jie said, he lifted Chen Jie up and walked up the river.
After walking for about half an hour, Chen Jie saw the stone steps and was delighted. It turned out that they were all connected. Without the elephant to lead the way, he might not have been able to find this shortcut.
At this moment, Chen Jie was extremely lucky that he chose to believe in the elephant.
Chen Jie slipped off the elephant's body, turned his head and saw the elephant looking at him reluctantly. Even the baby elephant raised its trunk towards him and barked a few times.
"See you soon." Chen Jie touched the little elephant, turned around and climbed towards the slope.
After climbing up in a few moments, Chen Jie lowered his head and saw the elephant and baby elephant still standing there, looking at him. Chen Jie smiled at the elephant and waved goodbye.
Although he was reluctant to leave, Chen Jie didn't linger for too long. He still had a lot of things to do and there was no time to waste.
Chen Jie walked for a while, returned to the place where he burned grass in the morning, and resumed the action of burning grass.
When you feel tired from burning, take a rest and continue burning grass.
In two hours, Chen Jie burned a large section of the road.
Watching the sun gradually set, Chen Jie picked up the ax and walked down the stone steps. He had to return to the cave before dark.
Passing by the woods before, Chen Jie turned around and walked in. There was not much food left, so he had to get some fish and shrimp back.
After picking up a branch, Chen Jie knocked on the surrounding grass and saw many grasshoppers popping up. Chen Jie stretched out his hand to catch some, broke off the grasshopper's legs, and put them in his pocket.
Chen Jie cut the branch in his hand into a very sharp point, walked to the stream, and started spearing fish.
After a while, Chen Jie forked seven or eight fish. Looking at the fish on the ground, Chen Jie used soft branches to string them together into a string, which was easier to hold.
After picking some more pepper fruits, Chen Jie got up and walked towards the cave.
When he came back, Chen Jie did not see the wolves.
"Girls, I'm back. Did you miss me today?" Chen Jieren arrived before he could say anything.
"Captain, you are back."
"Captain, I miss you so much."
"You are finally back."
The three women stood up in unison and looked at Chen Jie with smiles on their faces.
When Chen Jie looked at the three women in front of him, he always had the illusion that he had three wives.
"Look what I brought back for you." Chen Jie shook the fish in his hand, walked to the dead branches of the black locust, used the branches to push aside the dead branches of the black locust, and walked in.
"Wow, captain, you actually went fishing. I love fish the most." Chen Yanyan happily ran to Chen Jie, took the fish from Chen Jie's hand with a smile, and said happily.
"Little greedy cat, you are the greedy one. Here, this is yours too." Chen Jie took out the chili fruit from his pocket.
"Oh, Captain, this is so good of you. I love you so much." Chen Yanyan couldn't hold it back and kissed Chen Jie on the cheek, kissing her hard twice.
Chen Jie looked at Chen Yanyan's enthusiastic look, and the fatigue of the day seemed to have disappeared.
"Look, our captain was kind to you and got you all your food." Xiao Baihe said sourly.
Thinking about Chen Jie saying that he would not take her there in the morning, Xiao Baihe was depressed for a whole day, but when Chen Jie came back, all he brought back were Chen Yanyan's favorite foods.
"Look, what is this?" Chen Jie smiled and took out the banana given by the female elephant from the bamboo basket.
"Wow, banana? Captain, where did you get it? I haven't eaten a banana for a long time." Xiao Baihe's eyes lit up, and all the unpleasantness just now was forgotten in his mind.
