Ye An

The return journey was smoother than when it came.

The flock of birds guided the direction in the air, and the convoy did not encounter any threats like armored crickets. It left the rocky mountain smoothly and came to the woods where the mutant apes lived.

When passing through the woods, the driver subconsciously speeded up, not wanting to encounter the ape again.

I don't want the plan to change quickly, even though the convoy speeds up, it still doesn't escape the sound from the forest.Fortunately, the apes are not hostile, and their voices are not as sharp as they were when they first met, let alone dizzying.

Even so, the hunters were still very vigilant. Under the leadership of Jason, they stepped on the accelerator one after another, continued to speed up, and stayed away from the forest.

Ye An opened the car window, looked back through the gray rain, and found that on a huge ancient tree by the forest, the ape was leaning out of the canopy, vigorously waving its forearm towards the direction of the convoy, holding an oval-shaped thing.

Seeing Ye An appear, he grabbed the branch and shook it, expressing anxiety.

"parking."

Sensing the ape's emotions, Ye An realized that there was a situation and immediately stopped the vehicle.

Although the hunter didn't understand what he meant, seeing that Xiao Yun didn't object, he still followed Ye An's instruction and stopped.

Ye An pushed the car door open, and ran towards the road amidst everyone's suspicious eyes.

There was a lot of rain and the road to the forest was very muddy.

In order to see the way ahead, Ye An had to rest his arm on his forehead.Even though he was very careful, he slipped twice on the way and almost rolled into the mud.

Coming under the tree where the ape was, Ye An waved upwards.

Looking down from the canopy of the tree, the ape uttered two more low calls, signaling Ye An to take two steps back, and dropped the things in his hand.

Ye An reacted very quickly and immediately reached out to catch it.Wiping away the rain in front of his eyes, he found that what the ape had thrown was a tattered animal skin bag, which was not light in weight.Open the mouth of the bag, there are several rare fruits inside, all of which taste quite good.In addition, there is a small branch with young leaves, the juice is sweet, no less than sugar cane.

"For me?" Ye An raised the animal skin bag and looked up at the ape.

The ape yelled again, and before Ye An could respond, it jumped towards another giant tree, grabbed the branch with its front paws, swayed up and down, and disappeared into the depths of the forest.

Watching the mutated ape leave, Ye An couldn't help but marvel at the intelligence of the ape.In the use of tools, it has surpassed all the mutant beasts he has seen.

Before returning, Ye An checked the animal skin bag again, and found that there were still many seeds under the fruit and branches, some of which had become shriveled, obviously stored for a long time, and a small part was still full, which should have been collected recently.

"Thank you!"

Ye An cupped his mouth with one hand and shouted towards the forest.

With the help of his ability, he quickly contacted the ape who was still moving forward.The latter stopped moving, yelled twice, then stopped making any response, and completely disappeared into the forest.

Ye An returned to the car, put down the ape's gift, took the dry cloth from Xiao Yun's hand, and wiped the rainwater off his face and body.

The hunter in the front seat looked at Ye An with a strange expression through the rearview mirror.

"What?" Sensing the gazes of the two, Ye An raised his head and met their gazes.

The hunters shook their heads and put away their thoughts.

The more they got in touch with, the more they understood that anything that happened around Ye An, as long as it was related to mutant beasts, was not worth surprising.

The convoy moved forward in the rain, occasionally stopped halfway, replenished water, and set off again after a short rest.

Passing by the place where the caravan members were imprisoned, the ice wall had disappeared, and the caravan members who had been staying behind the wall were nowhere to be seen.Probably because Ye An and Xiao Yun didn't show up for many days, they took chances and tried to escape after the ice wall disappeared.

Experienced hunters check the tracks on the ground, and even if it is covered by rain, they can still accurately find the direction in which the caravan members escaped.

"Take a few people to catch up." Xiao Yun ordered.

Jason quickly named six hunters, all of whom were good at tracking.

A group of people chased after the clues, and returned from the forest in less than half an hour, bringing back a few broken bones and blood-stained cloth.

The bones are human bones, and the surface is covered with bite marks.The pattern on the cloth is very familiar, wiped off the mud, it is the same as the one on the caravan member's coat.

Jason detailed what they found on the road. After confirmation, none of the escaped people could leave safely, and all of them were killed by insects.

"From the traces, it should be an armor cricket." A hunter added.

The convoy wiped out most of the armored crickets, but not the group.There are not many members of the caravan alive, even if they encounter a small group, they still cannot escape death in the harsh environment.

Knowing what happened to these people, Ye An didn't say much.

They are Eluo's confidantes, no matter what Eluo's attitude towards them is, whether they want to abandon them in the end, during the period of following Eluo, there is nothing less to do or not to do.

It's not wrong to end up like this now.

After finding out the whereabouts of these people and learning about their fate, the convoy did not stay any longer and set off again soon.

The roar of the engine spread far away, alarming the musk deer foraging for food by the river.

After looking up and confirming that the convoy's target wasn't me, the forest musk deer group calmed down and continued to eat the green grass that germinated in the rainy season. They didn't notice at all that two mutated bobcats had approached quietly, eyeing the cubs in the group.

Nature is like this, survival of the fittest, the strongest is king.

Lin musk deer was careless and let down his vigilance while looking for food, and he was destined to be taught a lesson in blood.

On the isolated island, the antidote prepared by Lily of the Valley was very effective. After confirming that it was safe, the caravan took their leave one after another.

Several team leaders wanted to say hello to Ye An, but Ye An didn't come back for a long time, and there was no more news to send back. The departure date can't be delayed any longer, so I can only ask Lily Lan to convey my thanks and say that next time I will go to the isolated island Open a trade zone and they will definitely come again.

Zhao Weng originally planned to stay for a longer period of time. He didn't want to receive news suddenly that he had to come forward in person for something, so he had to change his plan, leave a letter to Ye An, and set off with the team.

On the day of Ye An's return, the poisoned fir tree had already moved freely, and she was still a little thin, but her spirit was very good, and she could recover after a little more care.

The bustling bazaars and camps returned to silence, with no more people coming and going, and no noise.

Kapok and Bauhinia lead people to further clean up the camp, and guard the snapping turtle shells that Ye An put together.

After finishing the assigned work, several teenagers took fishing nets and barrels to the river to search for small fish and shellfish.

Hearing the sound of the engine in the distance, the teenagers stopped their movements, stood up and looked, and found the convoy passing through the rain curtain. They recognized Ye An who was leaning out from the sunroof of the car, and immediately threw the barrel and fishing net aside. He shouted happily: "It's your lord, your lord is back!"

After hearing the sound, Mu Mian and the others rushed in one after another. Seeing the approaching convoy and the lord who had returned safely, they couldn't help but smile, and surrounded Ye An excitedly, and surrounded Ye An who got off the car. The hunters in the car were all pushed aside, even Xiao Yun was no exception.
