The immediate crisis was temporarily resolved, Chen Jie cautiously raised his legs and walked towards the steps.
After walking two or three steps, Chen Jie stopped, picked up a relatively thick branch, and began to flap it toward the grass, fearing that some insidious animals might be hiding inside.
After knocking for a while, he made sure that no random creatures came out, and then he stopped.
"Come up, there's no danger here anymore." Chen Jie turned sideways and said to the people behind him.
After saying that, Chen Jie took two more steps, intending to burn away the unsightly weeds in front of him, otherwise the thorns would easily prick people.
If he had to cut the road out bit by bit, he might not be able to walk even a few steps until dark.
So the best way is to burn it with fire, which is quick and effective, and can also scare away harmful insects and ants nearby, killing two birds with one stone.
Chen Jie placed the branches and lit a fire. Watching the fire devour the weeds, Chen Jie threw in some branches from time to time to make the fire burn more vigorously.
The three women behind him saw Chen Jie's actions and roughly understood what Chen Jie needed to do. They quickly began to move the branches. For a while, the three women began to work.
Chen Jie turned around and saw the three women working hard, with a smile in his eyes. It seemed that bringing the three of them together was the right choice.
As the fire grew stronger, the grass on both sides of the stone steps began to shake, and there were even some rustling sounds, as if some creatures were escaping.
When Chen Yanyan and Lisa saw this, the two women's faces turned pale and they stared closely at the action in front of them, for fear that some unknown object would appear and startle everyone.
Xiao Baihe turned around and was about to speak when he saw the two of them looking pale but holding back, and felt warm.
"Don't worry, all animals are afraid of fire. They will not attack us. They are just running for their lives. Once they run away, we can continue going up the mountain."
"Sister Baihe, how come you know everything? You're so amazing." After listening to Xiao Baihe's words, Chen Yanyan finally breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Xiao Baihe with eyes full of admiration.
Xiao Baihe said: "Of course I have learned from being with the captain for a long time! I knew so much before." After saying that, Xiao Baihe looked at Chen Jie unconsciously.
Chen Yanyan looked at Xiao Baihe and couldn't help but look at Chen Jie, her eyes filled with admiration. This was the captain they were most proud of.
Miracle lay next to Chen Jie's feet, watching everything in front of her quietly, without the slightest worry that any creature would jump out and hurt them.
The fire grew stronger and stronger, and it felt like it was about to go out, so Chen Jie added a handful of branches. The fire continued along the stone steps and burned halfway up the mountain before gradually extinguishing, and a spacious stone road appeared in front of everyone.
The three women looked at the scene in front of them in amazement. They all felt incredible. Who on earth would build such a good stone road on such an island? Could it be said that the savages made it themselves? Are savages really so smart?
"Captain, were these stone roads paved by savages?" Chen Yanyan frowned and asked what was on her mind.
"Pfft, Yanyan, you are too funny." Xiao Baihe couldn't help but laugh like a pig.
Chen Jie looked at Chen Yanyan's blank expression and couldn't help but smile.
"You have to ask the savages about this, I don't know either."
As soon as Chen Jie said this, everyone almost laughed out loud during breakfast.
The four of them laughed for a while, and Chen Jie looked at the road in front of him.
"Okay, it's getting late, we still have to go down the mountain." After saying that, Chen Jie picked up a bunch of branches and burned them towards the upper section of the road.
Just walking and burning like this, finally burned all the weeds.
When Chen Jie walked to the middle of the stone road, looking at the road above, Chen Jie frowned. It seemed that the burning would continue, but the branches in his hands were almost burned.
Looking at the three women, they were panting from exhaustion. It was unrealistic to ask them to move branches below.
Chen Jie withdrew his gaze, looked at the road above, and looked around, taking in everything at a glance.
He really stood high and looked far away, and he saw the scenery at the bottom of the mountain clearly. Looking into the distance, he could not see clearly at all. The mountain was shrouded in white mist all year round, making it impossible to see the end of the mountain.
.
Moreover, the woods below are too dense, making it difficult for people to distinguish the geographical location. From a distance, they look like piles of green squares. Looking further out, you can't see the end at all, and some are just white mist.
It seems that this island is very big. The location where they live is the entrance at the very top, maybe not even the entrance.
The three women looked at Chen Jie looking around, and they also imitated Chen Jie's behavior. After watching for a while, they felt a little bored. Moreover, seeing the stone road in front of them, the three women were a little discouraged. If they had to run back and forth a few times,
I guess they'll have to hang up here first.
Chen Yanyan suddenly pointed in the direction to the side and shouted excitedly.
"Look quickly, what is that?"
Everyone looked along the position of Chen Yanyan's finger and saw that in the northwest direction, shrouded in clouds and mist, a larger island gradually appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
This scene of pure natural scenery opened everyone's eyes.
Chen Jie frowned and had an illusion that the pirates' habitat seemed to be the larger island.
It seems that they are really close to the pirates.
Fortunately, they were smart and moved to the cave so that the pirates did not know of their existence. Otherwise, something big might have happened.
But it seems that the pirates' island is still some distance away from them, so it is considered safe for the time being.
"Captain, do you think those pirates will live on that island?" Xiao Baihe frowned and said with some worry.
It turned out that they were so close to the pirates.
"Then, what should we do? Are we so close?" Chen Yanyan said with worry on her face, her little face wrinkled together.
"What are you afraid of? The pirates don't know we are on the island, and they won't come in easily to find us. And the pirates are so far away from us, they won't be able to find us for a while." Chen Jie comforted everyone, but in fact he didn't have any psychological problems.
end.
Those beasts can't do anything. If their existence is discovered one day, it will probably be another bloody battle.
"What if they suddenly land on the island?" Lisa said in a cold voice, making everyone feel even heavier.
Chen Jie did not answer Xiao Baihe's words because he was not sure what those pirates were thinking.
If pirates really came, he hoped that only one ship would come so that he could continue with his previous plan.
