Chapter 180 Strange Stone Pile

After finishing our meal, we decided to go fruit picking first, because Wang Ping was right. If we released those wolves, they would definitely find a way to come back and take revenge.

We can't just let them trap us on the mountain like this, and security is especially important right now.

We must ensure the safety of all of us, so we must prepare more and more useful traps around the camp where we are now.

However, what's a bit of a headache is that the cave we're currently living in is surrounded by hard rocks, unlike the cave we lived in before which had soil on the top. So, it would be quite troublesome to dig a trap here.

At this moment, Chen Jian, standing to the side with a small entrenching tool, nodded at me and Wang Ping and said, "I think we should try a different approach. Brother Sihai has been trying to divert the waterfall water from the foot of the mountain to the top, right? I think after we finish picking the fruit, we should think of a way to bring the water up. If we can bring the water up, then if those wolves come to attack us again, even without picking up stones, just splashing water on them will be enough to make them suffer. After all, their fur becomes very heavy once it gets wet. And didn't Brother Sihai say that the rocks become extremely slippery when wet? That way, the wolves won't be able to rush up, and we can drive them all away without using the Yibing Clan?"

Wang Ping nodded after hearing Chen Jian's words, but then frowned.

“Chen Jian is absolutely right and makes a lot of sense, but we don’t have any water pumps or pipes right now. How are you going to pump the water up the mountain?”

I find the argument between Chen Jian and Wang Ping giving me a headache. Although we've almost reached a point where we can't solve the problem, I've wanted to do this for a long time: bring the water up.

Firstly, by bringing the water up here, we won't have to run down the mountain to wash vegetables all the time.

Moreover, women can boil water directly on the mountain to take a bath, which makes it very convenient.

After all, water is the source of all things. We can live without food, but we absolutely cannot live without water.

It was precisely because we valued water so much that we went through so much trouble to choose this campsite, searching for so long before finally settling on it.

It's because there's a waterfall at the foot of this mountain, but the water in that waterfall comes down from another mountain peak.

Moreover, that hill is very far away from ours.

I was also feeling a bit of a headache, but after thinking it over, I patted Chen Jian and said, "Forget it, let's go find the fruit first. As for the water, we'll figure that out later. You can't let yourself die from holding your pee. Besides, aren't you all college students? You can't possibly be completely helpless with something like this?"

After hearing what I said, Wang Ping chuckled and said, "Our educational level is not as high as that of Clerk Xu and Secretary Xiao. I'm afraid we'll have to trouble them with this matter."

I know that Wang Ping and I have gotten quite close during this time. Wang Ping no longer feels awkward like before. He has gradually integrated into our group and occasionally makes some harmless jokes with us.

Chen Jian, of course, knew what Wang Ping meant. After listening, he looked at me thoughtfully and curled the corners of his mouth.

"Oh dear, who told Brother Sihai to enjoy such a blessing of two wives? As for the matter of the two sisters-in-law, it's not up to Brother Sihai to handle. Let's hurry up and find a basket to pick up fruit."

I was speechless with them, but secretly I felt a sweet joy in my heart. After all, who wouldn't yearn to have two such beautiful women together?

In the afternoon, we rushed to the orchard while it was still bright.

We've fenced off the orchard with branches and vines to prevent wild animals from damaging it. It may seem selfish, but we have no other choice.

In this situation, we must ensure that everyone has enough food and vitamins, otherwise, if someone gets sepsis here, it will be a fatal disease.

We brought a lot of baskets and buckets with us, filled them all up, found a very large tree branch, hung all the things on it, and carried it back to the camp.

Halfway there, Chen Jian suddenly complained of a stomachache, saying that the fish soup he had eaten at noon might have been a bit off, and now he had an upset stomach.

I was also getting a bit tired from walking. After all, the sun was so strong, and my whole body was covered in sweat, feeling sticky and uncomfortable.

Wang Ping sighed. He took the water that Xu Wei had filled for us before we came and handed it to me from his pocket.

"Let's rest for a bit and let him go to the bathroom. It's still daylight, and we have guns with us, so it should be fine."

Everyone has to go to the bathroom sometimes, so how could I not let Chen Jian go? I nodded.

Chen Jian quickly ran to the low bushes on the other side, but as soon as he went in, I suddenly heard him shout in surprise, and then he staggered out of the bushes.

I was startled too, and quickly ran over to ask Chen Jian what was wrong. Chen Jian, with a pale face, pointed to the grove of trees: "Brother Sihai, there's a pile of rocks in there!"

Wang Ping, who was following behind me, burst into laughter when he heard Chen Jian say that: "Hey kid, why have you become so timid? It's just a pile of rocks, why are you so scared?"

Chen Jian frowned as he looked at Wang Ping: "Brother Wang Ping, I'm not as cowardly as you think. It's just that this pile of stones was obviously made by people. You two come and see for yourselves."

I immediately followed Chen Jian into the grove of low bushes, and there I found that there was indeed a pile of stones in the grove, and the stones seemed to have been splashed with something red.

The whole thing looks like a pyramid, but because the stones are all very angular, they look particularly strange when placed together.

Wang Ping, who had just been joking, changed his expression upon seeing this scene.

Immediately afterwards, he pulled out his gun, scanned the surroundings warily, and whispered in my ear, "Sihai, this pile of rocks looks very similar to the one they saw in the apple orchard before."

I nodded. If Wang Ping could see it, then I naturally could too.

But could there be traces of those indigenous people in this place as well?
