Chapter 173 A Man-Eating Monkey



These containers were buried in the pit, and some parts were actually quite fragile and could not withstand repeated knocking.

Now, what Lu Wuyai needs to do is stabilize these pits as much as possible, ideally turning them into caves.

At the end of the tunnel, Lu Wuyai began digging in the soil near the containers to expand the space.

As for the women, it was already nine o'clock when they finished eating.

It was late at night, and everyone was fast asleep in their own places, while the rain continued to fall outside.

In the forest near the rocky hill, a few pairs of green eyes occasionally appear. As spring approaches, some hibernating animals also emerge one after another.

There is no doubt that this pack of wolves has a keen sense of smell.

The bodies that had been buried in the mud during the day have now been discovered by them.

If Lu Wuyai were still awake, he might have been able to hear the sound of wolves digging in the rain.

Half an hour later, two emaciated wolves dragged the carcass out of the mud and began to devour it.

The scene was quite bloody at one point.

it hurts.

From the forest came disgruntled roars. The wolves, who were devouring human flesh, suddenly bared their teeth and retreated, looking resentful and helpless.

Soon, a species twice the size of an ordinary wolf appeared in the forest.

It was the wolf king. The moment he stepped out of the forest, his green eyes naturally fixed on the human corpse that was only half-dead.

The head and thighs were still there, but the internal organs had almost been eaten.

it hurts.

The wolf king growled in discontent, but driven by hunger, it continued on foot and began tearing at the carcass.

When it ate the human head, it hesitated for a while, but in the end it easily bit into the skull and made a sucking sound from its throat.

"It looks delicious," the wolf growled, its green eyes blinking with an agility and cunning never before seen.

It seemed to glance in the direction of the cave and faintly smelled the scent of rain.

Finally, the wolves in the woods quickly retreated and ran towards the depths of the deserted island.

That night, Lu Wuyai had a nightmare, a nightmare about everyone.

Call up.

At some point, Lu Wuyai sat up in bed, his forehead and back covered in cold sweat.

"This dream felt so real." Lu Wuyai shook his head, stroking his chest. He felt utterly exhausted. It took him a long time to truly ponder this problem.

After getting up, Lu Wuyai found a water glass and drank two large glasses before finally burping.

Sitting on the bed again, Lu Wuyai recalled the nightmare he had just experienced, but he couldn't remember the specific details. The only thing he was certain of was that it must have been a nightmare, otherwise he wouldn't have felt so uneasy, and he still hadn't calmed down.

As soon as he lay down on the bed, Lu Wuyai still felt very uncomfortable, as if a stone was pressing on his heart.

However, since he could no longer recall the scene in his dream, Lu Wuyai closed his eyes again, listened to the constant noise from the outside world, and soon fell into a deep sleep again.

The next day, everyone came out of the cave and watched the morning light rise in the east. The dark clouds in the sky began to gradually dissipate.

The azure sky was like a painting. It was a scene that no brush could describe.

Lu Wuyai stretched towards the sun, embraced it, and when no one was looking, patted a certain part of Su Xi's body, revealing an amazing elasticity there.

"A deathly expression." Su Xi pouted, then suddenly remembered something, and a blush immediately appeared on her cheeks.

Soon, Lu Wuyai picked up a hoe and walked towards the fertile land he had chosen before.

Late February is a good time for clearing land and planting. Today they plan to shovel soil and, in addition to planting some vegetables, also plan to plant sweet potatoes and potatoes.

Although planting now is indeed a bit early, it is still an experiment. Most importantly, it is related to the local temperature and humidity.

Upon arriving at the sunny, gentle slope, one can immediately see that the dense wild grass has already sprouted tender shoots and is thriving.

"I'm very busy right now."

Lu Wuyai let out a sigh of relief, looking at the green grass covering the mountains and fields, and suddenly regretted choosing this place as his vegetable garden.

“I’ll go first, you watch my movements.” Song Xiaoyou said as she picked up a hoe and began teaching how to weed on the gentle slope.

It has to be said that Song Xiaoyou has a really good figure.

Lu Wuyai looked at the figure opposite him, bathed in sunlight. Unbeknownst to him, the girl who used to walk with her head down had transformed into a red rose, exuding an alluring fragrance.

Thinking back to the atmosphere inside the container that night, Lu Wuyai couldn't help but ponder.

Seemingly noticing the intense gaze, Song Xiaoyou turned around and saw that it was Lu Wuyai. Her fair cheeks immediately turned red, and the blush quickly spread from her neck to her whole body.

"That's all," Song Xiaoyou said, stumbling.

Soon, everyone had their own hoes and were busy on the gentle slope.

Once he came to his senses, Lu Wuyai joined the hoeing team and did his best to complete the hoeing work for the day.

But it must be said that hoeing is boring, tiring, and physically demanding.

At first, I took a break every half hour, but as I kept hoeing the ground, I finally started to feel soreness when I bent over.

Thus, apart from Lu Wuyai who came down from Lu Chi, everyone else started clearing the weeds by hand early on.

Perhaps due to the continuous rainfall, the soil is very moist, and you can occasionally see some earthworms, which shows how fertile this place is.

Two hours later, Lu Wuyai was unable to stand up straight and stopped temporarily where he wanted to rest.

Beside him, six women were squatting on the ground picking grass. Although it was still winter, they were sweating profusely.

"This is too tiring," Gu Yuxin couldn't help but complain, stretching out her arm and wiping her face with her relatively clean arm.

"This is how farmers cultivate the land; it's not even considered hard work," said Song Xiaoyou.

Lu Wuyai understood this all too well. The weather wasn't too bad now. The real challenge was the summer, and the heartache of having all that hard work destroyed by natural disasters.

"You all take a break, I'll continue." Lu Wuyai took a breath. Although it would be difficult to complete the cultivation of the entire land today, completing more domains was better than resting.

Half an hour later, the six women were divided into two groups.

One group continued weeding behind Lu Wuyai, while the other group began to find some small trees in the nearby forest and cut them down.

After working back and forth for several hours, Lu Wuyai finally had to stop because his hand cramped up.

At this moment, most of the hillside had been cleared of soil by Lu Wuyai, and the foot of the mountain was overgrown with weeds, which was quite a spectacular sight.

The next step was planting. Lu Wuyai didn't participate in this. He took two sheepdogs and began his first patrol near the vegetable garden.

You must understand that they are not just a group of survivors on a deserted island.

When he left, Lu Wuyai took a whistle with him. Since the arrival of the cold winter, the three falcons had disappeared, and he planned to recall them once more.

“Go to the orchard to look,” Lu Wuyai said to himself.

The fruit trees survived the last tsunami intact. I don't know if they're still there after winter, but they're more likely to be. After all, they're plants that have grown for many years and should have adapted to the desert island's climate.

Survival of the fittest, elimination of the unfit. That's how cruel and ruthless the rules of nature are.

An hour later, Lu Wuyai arrived at the orchard without incident.

At this moment, the orchard grows on a cliff, appearing exceptionally majestic.

"The flowers are already blooming even before winter is over." Lu Wuyai looked at the flowers on the treetops, wondering what kind of wild fruit they were. They were so vibrant in this season, some even bearing small green fruits.

The orchard was very large, and Lu Wuyai had no idea how many wild fruits were inside.

After watching for a while, Lu Wuyai began to whistle. He had already seen many birds appear in the sky.

His whistle was quickly answered.

What initially appeared to be just three black dots suddenly obscured Lu Wuyai's vision.

Three exceptionally beautiful falcons perched on a large, seemingly vibrant tree. Lu Wuyai reached out and stroked the glutton's white feathers. It was a feeling completely different from that of a sheepdog.

“I thought you were dead,” Lu Wuyai said with a smile.

It makes a clanging sound.

The metallic bird song echoed in Lu Wuyai's ears, and he suddenly felt a tearing sensation in his eardrums.

Fortunately, Lu Wuyai brought earplugs with him when he went out, otherwise he might have fainted again.

After finding his former partner, Lu Wuyai was in a particularly good mood. Gazing at the bright sky, he no longer longed to go back.

So he walked to the end of the orchard, sat on the cliff, and stared at the blue sky for two hours.

Only when he realized it was getting dark did he pull the eagle and the dog towards the cave.

Before leaving, he picked all the small green fruits in the orchard and put them in his pocket.

On the way, he occasionally ate a few slices and found that they tasted too sour.

"This is a sour plum, and I've almost lost all my teeth," Lu Wuyai couldn't help but complain.

As it grew darker, Lu Wuyai started running.

"It got dark so fast today," Lu Wuyai couldn't help but complain. He then realized that it was probably because the cliff was so high that the light felt particularly bright.

It was already five o'clock, and it was estimated that Lu Wuyai would have a hard time reaching the cave before dark.

But in any case, the sooner you go back, the safer you will be.

Ahead, two sheepdogs were leading the way, and falcons soared in the sky. If there was any danger, Lu Wuyai would be able to spot it immediately.

Therefore, even as dusk begins to fall over the deserted island, Lu Wuyai is not afraid.

With a mouthful of sour fruit, Lu Wuyai's ears were filled with the sound of rushing wind.

"This fruit is so sour, it makes me even hungrier." Lu Wuyai said with a crooked mouth, feeling saliva dripping from the corner of his lips.

The sky was darker than before.

Lu Wuyai ran around in the forest, gusts of wind blowing against him. At times, he was no slower than a sheepdog.

At a certain moment, a piercing bird cry came from the sky, and Lu Wuyai immediately stopped.

"What's going on?" Lu Wuyai stood on a gentle slope and realized that the birdsong was not coming from in front of him, but from the forest to his side.

Lu Wuyai squinted and looked carefully. He saw nothing, but when he glanced at it up close, his scalp suddenly went numb.

A pack of wolves actually jumped out of the forest, completely overwhelming Lu Wuyai and his group in numbers.

Lu Wuyai was completely baffled. This wasn't a dense forest, and there wasn't enough food. Why were these wolves hunting here?

"No one else has this kind of luck." Lu Wuyai spat on the ground, but he was no longer the person who was afraid of wild wolves.

Lu Wuyai drew a dagger from his waist and swung it forward a few times. The dagger gleamed coldly, its sharpness exceptional.

The general and marshal lay on the ground, their hair standing on end, facing the pack of wolves from a distance.

In the sky, the greedy creatures continued to emit long cries, the sound like a sharp sword, as they drew closer and closer to the ground.

Lu Wuyai counted carefully and found there were a total of twenty-three wolves. Once a team battle started, he would probably be finished, not to mention his comrades who cared about him.

With no other choice, Lu Wuyai walked to the sheepdog's side, looked at the general and the marshal, and finally decided to let the general stay.

Alas.

The marshal licked Lu Wuyai's body, his hair, which had been standing straight, became fluffy, and his eyes showed a reluctance to leave.

"Let's go." Lu Wuyai patted its body and quickly left before the wolves completely surrounded them.

Finally, the marshal departed, his four legs running wildly through the dark forest. He wanted to deliver the message to others as quickly as possible.

But before he had run far, the marshal was suddenly hit by something and plunged headfirst into the woods, causing him to veer off course.

As it stood up again, a huge wolf rushed out of the dense forest and bit its neck.

At this moment, the marshal could only let out a mournful cry, struggled a few times, and then fell completely silent.

The green wolf's eyes darted around, looking nothing like the eyes of an ordinary wild wolf.

At the same time, Lu Wuyai and the general were surrounded by wolves.

“Hold on a little longer.” Lu Wuyai said, the dagger in his hand flashing a blindingly cold light in the air.

Finally, the first wolf charged forward. Lu Wuyai calmly stretched out his hand, and a beam of light shone directly on the wolf's head.

Wow.

The wolf immediately let out a howl; the bright light made it very uncomfortable.

In a flash, Lu Wuyai plunged the dagger into the wolf's head without any hindrance.

Lu Wuyai took a breath, stepped on the wolf, took out his hand, and drew his knife.

As the saying goes, pulling out a radish brings out mud; wolf blood sprayed into the air, adding a touch of brightness to the night.

The next second, Lu Wuyai turned off the flashlight, and all around him were green eyes.

It makes a clanging sound.

The falcons were still circling, and Lu Wuyai frowned. At this moment, if Greed and the others didn't come down, he and the general would be unable to defeat the wolf pack.

"it hurts."

A signal came from the wolf pack. Lu Wuyai instinctively crouched down, his back tensing. When he turned around, the general was already fighting several wolves.

Lu Wuyai drew his gun and fired several shots at the wolf pack in the darkness.

The loud banging, like thunder, did indeed deter the wolf pack after a while.

But soon, Lu Wuyai's heart became tense again.

He saw a pair of eyes, as large as copper bells, slowly appearing on the mountain path where the marshal had left. Their terrifying aura terrified all the animals in the sky and on the ground.

To Lu Wuyai, the muffled heartbeat undoubtedly indicated that the other party was a terrifying wild wolf.

In particular, those unforgettable wolf eyes gave Lu Wuyai a very familiar feeling.

“That’s right, it’s a man-eating monkey.” Lu Wuyai took a breath and realized that the anthropomorphism in the wolf’s eyes looked a lot like the man-eating monkey he had encountered before.

"What exactly is this?" Lu Wuyai took a breath and thought to himself. On a deserted island, one is bound to encounter things that defy common sense.

it hurts.

With a soft wolf howl, Lu Wuyai realized that the wolves, who had been afraid of him, had surrounded him again.

This time, Lu Wuyai did not hesitate. He pointed the gun at the Wolf King, pulled the trigger, and a burst of fire illuminated the surroundings.

"Such a fast pace." Lu Wuyai felt a surge of tension. The other person's body vanished in an instant, like a ghost.

After the two gunshots, Lu Wuyai knew he was running low on bullets, so he simply turned on his flashlight, hoping to kill a few more wolves with the bright light.

"it hurts."

Amidst the howling of wolves, Lu Wuyai's palms were covered in cold sweat.

He couldn't help it; he couldn't help but feel nervous. Wolves were everywhere, so he couldn't calm down.

Choking to death.

Suddenly, three falcons swooped down from the sky and disappeared into the forest opposite Lu Wuyai.

The next second, a fierce roar resounded, like thunder on the ground, terrifying Lu Wuyai and the wolf pack.

Lu Wuyai, who was the first to react, immediately seized the opportunity, took out his dagger, and stabbed the two wolves to death, one in front and one behind. Of course, he was also injured in the process.

Two more claw marks appeared on his chest, and the smell of human blood drew the wolves' attention back to Lu Wuyai.

"The brave will starve, and the cowardly will starve."

Lu Wuyai's heart skipped a beat. He looked back and his heart sank slightly.

As soon as the wolf king appeared, Lu Wuyai knew: Marshal, there probably won't be a chance to bring the news from here to the people in the cave.

"General!" Lu Wuyai shouted, and the sheepdog trapped in the wolf pack immediately escaped and limped back to his side.

"Don't leave me." Lu Wuyai patted the general and found that he only had some superficial wounds. The most serious one was that a piece of his ear was bitten off.

It's really hard to imagine that a sheepdog could fight several wolves like that.

Suddenly, Lu Wuyai noticed a problem.

He looked around at the dark forest, wondering when he would be able to see anything again at night.

"I can see it at night too."

Thinking of this, Lu Wuyai immediately became excited. In the darkness, the surrounding environment was as bright as day. Only at this moment did he truly understand how Song Xiaoyou had felt.

There's nothing to hide; it's even clearer than it is during the day.

Lu Wuyai immediately raised his gun. He had been firing haphazardly in the dark, and the light and his hand speed were completely mismatched, resulting in only a few bullets hitting the wolf.

But now, the situation is completely different.

Lu Wuyai, who can see at night, can even predict the next move of some wolves by relying on his hearing.

With a bang.

In the instant the bullet whizzed through the air, Lu Wuyai clearly saw a wolf fall.
