Turning his head and looking at Chen Yanyan's worried face, Chen Jie couldn't help but comfort her.
"Don't worry, pirates usually won't come to a place like this. They are very busy."
Listening to Chen Jie's words, the three women finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Xiao Baihe knew that Chen Jie seemed to have not given up on the plan. Looking at Chen Jie's serious look, Xiao Baihe began to be worried again.
Before Xiao Baihe could speak, he saw Chen Jie turning around and walking towards the steps. When he reached the end, looking at the messy grass above, Chen Jie turned his head and looked at the three women who were frozen in place.
"Do you still want to go into the mountains?"
In fact, Chen Jie's mentality was like a mirror. Seeing the exhaustion on the faces of the three women, he probably would choose to give up going into the mountains.
Women's physical strength is not as good as men's. Even if they are mentally expecting it, they still need to do what they can. Seeing the faces of the three women dripping with sweat, Chen Jie sighed. It seems that going into the mountains is not a good thing.
At the very least, the grass in front of me is the biggest obstacle.
If these stone steps kept circling along the mountain road, wouldn't their efforts be in vain?
Chen Yanyan sighed, sat down on the ground, curled her lips, and said helplessly.
"I didn't get anything done all morning, and I'm so hungry."
"I'm a little hungry too." Lisa touched her belly and looked at the stone road covered with grass, feeling that there was no end in sight.
Xiao Baihe did not answer the call, her mind was full of what to do to prevent Chen Jie from implementing that crazy idea.
Chen Jie chuckled lightly, and couldn't bear to see the three girls disappointed.
"How about we go back for lunch first and continue working on it in the afternoon."
The three of them were silent when they heard Chen Jie's words, and seemed a little tired of such boring things.
After receiving no response for a long time, Chen Jie raised the corners of his mouth slightly and looked at the three women with solemn faces before speaking with a smile.
"What's wrong, are you giving up?"
"Humph, there are no savages here at all. We have walked so far without even seeing two hairs. It is a waste of time and energy." Chen Yanyan pouted her mouth and said angrily.
Listening to Chen Yanyan's frank words, everyone couldn't help laughing.
In the end, it was Xiao Baihe who spoke to comfort Chen Yanyan.
"That's how it is here. We don't know what we will encounter. Maybe the savages went to play under the mountain, or they hid in the cave and didn't come out. Don't be discouraged."
In fact, what Xiao Baihe said is not unreasonable. The whereabouts of the savages are inherently erratic, so it's hard to say whether they are there or not. It's normal for them not to be seen at the moment.
Chen Jie nodded and looked at Lily Xiao with approval.
"Lily is right, do we give up so easily?"
Seeing that Chen Jie was still yearning for the top, Xiao Baihe quickly helped.
"That's right, that's right. We have to keep working hard. Maybe there are really savages up there. Being able to see savages in our lifetime can be considered an experience."
Chen Yanyan and Lisa looked at Lily Xiao strangely.
Why is this girl so interested in the savages? Shouldn't they be the two of them curious about the savages?
"Let's go back to have lunch and rest first, and then continue in the afternoon." Chen Jie deliberately teased Chen Yanyan, wanting to see what she would choose.
Chen Yanyan sat on the ground without saying a word, just crying and looking at Chen Jie pitifully, as if begging for mercy.
Chen Jie burst into laughter and said immediately.
"Didn't you scream the most joyfully yesterday? Why are you still not happy when I brought you here?"
"..." Chen Yanyan looked at Chen Jie helplessly, finally knowing how it felt to shoot herself in the foot.
Everyone looked at the expression on Chen Yanyan's face and couldn't help laughing again. There was no way, Chen Yanyan was so cute.
After laughing for a while, Chen Jie made a decision directly.
"Let's go, let's go down the mountain now. Eat and drink enough to have the strength to continue."
The three women nodded, turned around and walked down.
When the four of them went down the mountain, it was much smoother than going up. When they were halfway up the mountain, Chen Jie suddenly spoke.
"Wait a mininute."
The three women turned back and looked at Chen Jie in confusion, thinking that Chen Jie had discovered something again.
Chen Jie took the scimitar from Xiao Baihe's hand, walked to the side, and began to chop at the messy grass.
"Captain, what are you doing?" Chen Yanyan's eyes widened and she looked at the strange Chen Jie, thinking that Chen Jie was taking advantage of these weeds to vent his anger.
While Chen Jie was doing this, he glanced sideways at the three women and found that the three women were looking at him like they were idiots, which made him dumbfounded.
"Have you ever seen a brown mat?" After Chen Jie finished speaking, he turned his head and continued to compete with the brown leather on the ground.
"No." The three women said in unison, thinking that Chen Jie was getting them food.
Chen Jie was speechless when he heard the three women's words. He had never eaten pork, and had he never seen a pig running?
Sighing, Chen Jie simply gave an example.
"Have you ever seen martial arts movies? The heroes in them always wear raincoats on rainy days, remember?"
‘Coir raincoat?’ What is that thing?
The three women still shook their heads and looked at Chen Jie in confusion.
Chen Jie glanced at the three people and spoke helplessly.
"A raincoat to protect yourself from the rain on rainy days."
Chen Yanyan suddenly woke up, pointed at the thing in Chen Jie's hand, and said excitedly.
"I know, it turns out it's an ancient raincoat, it turns out that's what it is." Chen Yanyan suddenly remembered the martial arts TV series she watched.
"Well, if there are too many, we can make it into a mattress so that you don't have to worry about being cold when you sleep at night." Chen Jie began to think about the long term.
I always live in a cave. Although there are weeds and wolf skins underneath for cushioning, it is still a bit cool in the cave when it is cloudy and rainy. If there is a mattress, it will be different, and it can keep out the moisture.
It can prevent coldness and kill two birds with one stone.
The three women finally understood Chen Jie's intentions, and they admired Chen Jie even more. Even in this situation, Chen Jie knew that there was nothing in this world that Chen Jie couldn't do.
Chen Yanyan became interested at this time, raised her face slightly, and said cheerfully.
"I understand, the captain wants to make a mattress for us, right? He's afraid that the three of us will catch a cold while sleeping."
"Oh, you still understand me." Chen Jie gave Chen Yanyan an appreciative look.
Xiao Baihe showed an adoring smile and spoke softly.
"Captain, it seems that there is really nothing in this world that you can't do!"
Chen Jie glanced at Xiao Baihe and spoke carelessly.
"Yes, I won't have children."
Xiao Baihe knew that Chen Jie would say this, so she turned around and said.
