In the bustling territory of the monkey troop, the monkey king, after much busyness and commotion, finally managed to properly handle the branch in his hand.

It piled the prepared branches together with the vines and leaves it had gathered earlier, and then began to build the hut with great enthusiasm.

It first planted several thick branches firmly in the ground, forming an irregular circle.

They then quickly tied them together with vines, and finally carefully laid down layers of leaves.

Although the shack was built crookedly and looked frail, as if it would collapse at any moment.

But the Monkey King looked smug, like a proud little general.

It scurried happily in and out of the hut, and every now and then it would run up to the other monkeys, waving its arms and legs to show off, as if to say that this was the greatest masterpiece of its life.

Upon witnessing this scene, Lu Fan suddenly realized what was happening.

It turns out that the Monkey King saw how efficient and convenient the tools were when he used them, and realized that tools could help them accomplish various tasks more easily, so he "stole" the stone tools.

Looking at the Monkey King and the lively monkeys around him, Lu Fan felt a strange and indescribable feeling welling up inside him.

These little guys are clever and quick-witted, showing great enthusiasm and talent in using tools.

If they can continue to learn and master the tools, they might actually be able to create their own unique civilization.

With this in mind, Lu Fan made a decisive decision.

With a smile on his face, he walked up gently, patted the monkey king on the shoulder, first pointed to the stone axe and stone knife on the ground, and then pointed to the hut that the monkeys were building.

He then solemnly handed the tools to the Monkey King and said earnestly, "These are for you. I hope they can help you make your lives more enjoyable!"

The Monkey King was initially puzzled, holding the tools at a loss, his eyes full of confusion.

Seeing this, Lu Fan patiently demonstrated again how to use a stone axe to chop down trees and a stone knife to cut, explaining in detail as he demonstrated.

The Monkey King suddenly realized what was going on, excitedly took the tools, and turned back to building the hut.

When the other monkeys saw that the monkey king had obtained the precious tool, they immediately gathered around, staring at him expectantly.

Lu Fan smiled and reassured everyone, "Don't worry, don't worry, everyone gets a share!"

After saying that, he distributed the remaining stone tools to the other monkeys one by one, and even taught them how to use them.

The monkeys were indeed clever; they quickly mastered how to use the tools and busied themselves enthusiastically in the forest.

Some monkeys wielded stone axes, energetically chopping branches; others held stone knives, carefully whittling wood; still others cracked nuts open with stones, enjoying the delicious treat.

For a moment, the woods echoed with the sounds of knocking and the joyful shouts of the monkeys, creating a vibrant and lively scene.

Looking at the lively and heartwarming scene, An Lan asked curiously, "You really gave them all the tools? Aren't you afraid something might happen?"

Lu Fan smiled and explained, "There's a saying that the difference between humans and animals is that humans can use tools. Since humans learned to use tools, they have started the process of civilization."

So, if these monkeys also mastered the use of tools, wouldn't they be able to create their own civilization? I'm so curious.

Besides, we now have more advanced iron tools, so these stone tools are less useful. Giving them to them is putting them to good use.

After hearing this, An Lan couldn't help but laugh and said, "Your idea is really novel and unique. However, seeing how happy they are, it's quite worthwhile to give them the tools."

At this moment, the live stream chat was flooded with comments:

"Wow, even monkeys can use tools now!"

"I'm reminded of a movie called 'Rise of the Planet of the Apes,' where the apes are just like humans."

"Am I the only one who finds this terrifying to think about? Humans interfering with the development of a race, wouldn't that count as changing history?"

"In Liu Cixin's short story 'Destiny,' dinosaurs become the rulers of the earth. Do you think that in the future, these monkeys who know how to use tools will dominate the wilderness?"

In the bustling monkey territory, Lu Fan watched the busy monkeys, cleared his throat, and spoke loudly.

"Old friends, I have a big project going on, and I need your help moving some bricks. If you help me with this, I guarantee there will be even more delicious rabbit meat next time!"

Upon hearing this, the Monkey King's eyes lit up instantly. He squeaked twice, as if summoning his companions or readily agreeing to Lu Fan's request.

The other monkeys also stopped what they were doing and gathered around, full of curiosity about the new "task".

So, Lu Fan and An Lan led the monkey troop in a grand procession toward the brick kiln.

Along the way, the monkeys hopped and jumped around with boundless energy, some nimbly darting between branches, others running joyfully on the ground.

Some mischievously jumped onto Lu Fan and An Lan's shoulders, occasionally tugging at their hair, making the two of them laugh out loud.

Dahei excitedly ran around among the monkeys, mingling with them and having a great time.

Upon arriving at the brick kiln, Lu Fan picked up a brick, held it high, and shouted, "Look everyone, move this one, move them to my shelter!"

As he spoke, he placed the brick in front of a large monkey and gently patted it on the shoulder.

The monkeys stared at the bricks, examining them curiously for a moment. Then, a few of the bolder monkeys took the lead, imitating Lu Fan, picking up the bricks and running towards the shelter.

Seeing this, the other monkeys followed suit, and soon the road from the brick kiln to the sanctuary was full of monkeys carrying bricks, resembling a busy and joyful "brick-moving assembly line".

The monkey king was even more energetic, struggling to carry a brick bigger than itself, walking unsteadily.

Despite looking very strained, it gritted its teeth and persevered, occasionally glancing back at the other monkeys, looking just like a dutiful traffic controller.

A little monkey accidentally dropped a brick on the ground, which startled it so much that it jumped away and looked at the other monkeys with pleading eyes, as if asking for help.

Another monkey passing by saw this and, without saying a word, picked up a brick and helped carry it to the sanctuary.

While moving bricks, the monkeys came up with many novel and interesting methods.

Some monkeys stacked several bricks together, tied them tightly with vines, and then dragged them along; other monkeys worked in pairs, one pulling from the front and the other pushing from behind.

Watching the monkeys' creative antics, Lu Fan and An Lan couldn't stop laughing.

"These little guys are really smart!" An Lan exclaimed with a smile.

"Yes, maybe they really will be able to create their own civilization in the future." Lu Fan looked at the busy monkey troop, his eyes full of expectation and anticipation.

As time went by, the number of bricks in the kiln dwindled, while the pile of bricks next to the shelter grew ever higher.

Although the monkeys were panting heavily, not one of them gave up.

Their passion is like a burning flame, filling the entire wilderness with vibrant life and energy.
