The little skull was cold, holding it like a squirrel.


    Ye Xi looked at it as if he had stuffed something in his heart.


    “…… Why did you die here? "


    "Did the people who lived here kill you?"


    It was quiet in the cave.


    The little skull''s mossy empty eye socket looked at Ye Xi quietly. There were moist water drops from the eye socket, which seemed to be in tears.


    Ye Xi''s ear suddenly moved.


    He heard a sound coming from outside the cave, far from here. The sound was very low, as if it were crawling. However, ye Xi''s ear power was so strong that he immediately recognized that it was the sound of several people walking towards the cave with dead leaves and branches pressing on their feet.


    Ye xiqian removed the water drops from the eyes of the little skull and put it down gently.


    Then he raised his feet and walked to the entrance of the mountain.


    The entrance of the cave is covered by dense Dendrobium fimbriatum, and the scenery outside is not clear. Ye Xi did not go out, so he stood at the entrance of the cave, quietly waiting for visitors across a vine curtain, his face was dimly illuminated by the thin light.


    "Rustle!"


    The sound of trampling on the dead leaves became clearer and clearer.


    The next moment, the tassel Dendrobium with bright yellow flowers was suddenly broken open! A stone spear stabbed at Ye Xi''s chest!


    Ye Xi did not blink his eyes. He held the stone spearhead which had been polished to be extremely sharp.


    As if the spear was clamped by a pair of tongs, the thread could not move.


    Dendrobium fimbriatum was opened.


    The man holding the spear reveals the true face of Lushan Mountain.


    Ye Xi looked at people.


    He was a thin old man with a cold face. His skin on the back of his hand was very old, with earthworm like tendons and veins protruding. He was dressed in dirty animal skin, naked and strong chest, with potholes and scars like medals.


    At the moment, the cold and fierce old man looked at Ye Xi, as if he were stupid.


    Dendrobium fimbriatum was opened again.


    Four old soldiers with stone knives and spears burst in.


    As soon as they saw Ye Xi, their body was as rigid as a sculpture, as if they had seen something extremely incredible, or as if they had seen their relatives who had left for a long time. They were so excited.


    Ye Xi was confused by their reaction and slowly released his hand holding the spear.


    I didn''t expect Leng Li to release his spear at the same time.


    "Bang!"


    The spear, which no one held, fell to the ground, breaking the eerie silence.


    "You Where are you from? "


    The old man spoke.


    His tone was strange, his voice was dry and ragged, and it was obvious that he had not spoken for a long time. The five old soldiers trembled slightly, staring at Ye Xi without blinking, waiting for his reply.


    Ye Xi put down his previous hostility to them and said, "I come from the north."


    Several old soldiers were excited to the point of madness, crying and laughing.


    "They''re looking for the right way!"


    "There are other tribes in the north. I said that our ancestors came from the North! Ha ha ha


    "Judging from the strength and clothing of this young man, there must be a big tribe in the North!"


    Leng Li''s eyes were red and his eyes were flashing with tears. A pair of withered and wrinkled hands tightly held Ye Xi''s arm. He could not help saying, "great, great..."


    Ye Xi was puzzled. When they were calmer, he asked, "Why are you so excited when you see me?"


    Lengli old man wiped his eyes, showing a sad smile: "excuse me, we have not seen foreigners for a long time."


    "Yes, young man, it''s very kind of you to come here. It''s a pity to see you before you die."


    "Our tribe is called the millstone tribe..."


    The five old soldiers were excited and excited as if they saw outsiders in the desert island. They didn''t hide anything at all. They told ye Xi everything as if you were pouring beans out of a bamboo tube.


    Because they like to polish stone tools, their tribe is called the millstone tribe. When and why they moved here, relying on a special kind of grass juice called "zhencao", they successfully survived in this poisonous and insect ridden tropical rain forest.


    But the rainforest has one fatal drawback: the scarcity of ferocious animals.


    Gradually, the millstone tribe soldiers are less and less powerful.


    One day 60 years ago, more than 20 soldiers went out hunting to survive. There are only witches left in the cave, as well as a group of old and weak women and children and ordinary people. Of course, the cave is blocked with huge stones.


    Cold Li old man named Huang Shi said this, his hands were shaking, muddy tears penetrated into the layers of wrinkles, legs like soft, sitting on the ground.


    "That day..."


    "I remember that day very clearly. We were out hunting, and we were very lucky. We found two very long, very long, big white meat worms as thick as tree trunks. They were enough to feed all the fallen people.""But the two meat worms are more difficult to entangle. Although they are not poisonous, they have great strength. Our more than 20 brothers spent a lot of effort to kill them, and then happily carry them back."


    "It''s a little late to go back."


    At this point, he can''t say any more. He lowers his head and covers his face full of tears with his hands. He is trapped in the memory and cannot restrain himself.


    The old man named Bone Claw continued.


    "When we rushed back, we found that the huge stone at the entrance of the cave had been removed The mouth of the cave is very bloody. We walked quickly into the cave and saw a scene that we could never forget in our life


    His face was calm, but his wrinkled hands trembled slightly.


    "All our people are dead. There are bones and meat scraps everywhere. None of my friends, my children and my amum have escaped. Even the wizard is dead, and his body is gnawed in a mess."


    "Some giant insects have come here, pushed open the stone of the hole, come in and gnaw at them."


    "But we can''t avenge them. We don''t even know what kind of giant insect it is. We only see the body fluid crawling on the ground, and we know it''s a giant insect."


    Hearing this, ye Xi couldn''t help asking, "since there is insect fluid, have you searched for it along the insect fluid?"


    "Of course, we have been chasing along with the insect liquid on the ground. But the insect liquid finally disappeared on the ground. We dug up the ground, but we couldn''t find the trace of the insect at all. Even if we yelled at the cave, there was no movement."


    "We''ve been here for more than 60 years, and we haven''t waited for the worm to reappear."


    Five old soldiers clenched their fists.


    Obviously, although it has been more than 60 years, the hatred in their hearts has not been extinguished.


    Ye Xi was silent and asked, "are you five soldiers left now?"


    Huang Shi sighed: "at the beginning, we survived 27 soldiers, all of whom were men. There was no woman or child left in the tribe. We can''t just wait, or the grindstone will disappear when we die. "
