Around 4 p.m.
Ye Feng sat on the edge of the treehouse, which was more than 6 meters high, gazing at the sun in the distance, which had dimmed considerably…
He had only just finished his work when he realized that although this place was deep in the forest…
But if you stand up in the treehouse and look up, there is a large hole right above you in front of you.
He estimated that the sunset could be clearly seen here every day between 4 and 5 pm.
It's practically a natural viewing platform...
He got up very early today; the roof tiles had all been installed.
The materials used are still mainly palm leaves and moss...
Now, it can completely shelter the treehouse platform, so even if it rains heavily tonight, he can get a good night's sleep.
In addition, he expanded the platform, setting up the framework...
Next, all you need to do is fill in appropriately sized logs as flooring.
He also used vines to secure the wood on all the platforms.
Now I don't have to worry about the log rolling down while I sleep...
These tasks sound simple, but for someone with injured hands, they are extremely difficult.
He's been busy since morning...
He stretched, took a bunch of grapes he had picked that afternoon from his bag, sat on the edge of the platform, and casually swung his legs around...
While eating, he thought about the survival mission ahead...
"Ooh ooh ooh..."
Just then, a faint chirping sound suddenly rang out…
Two little monkeys wobbled out of the backpack and finally crawled to Ye Feng's lap.
Two pairs of adorable big eyes stared straight at him…
Ye Feng smiled slightly, took two grapes, and gave them to them…
The two little ones woke up early this morning.
It must be said that animals, especially highly intelligent mammals like monkeys, are very human-like...
They seemed to know that Ye Feng had saved them, and they even fed them…
After a day of playing and getting used to each other, they are no longer as wary.
It seems they've come to regard him as their mother, their master, or their leader.
Ye Feng could even stroke them at will…
He even gave the two monkeys names…
The all-black one is called Mao Mao because of its abundant fur.
The one with a tuft of white hair on its head was named Da Wang because its bark was loud and sounded a bit like a dog's.
After getting them, Ye Feng realized that pets can indeed provide emotional value.
He feels less lonely now...
A moment later, he patted the two monkeys' heads...
"Do you think... my companions are still safe and sound?"
The two monkeys made smacking chewing sounds, not even glancing at him, just busy munching on the grapes…
Ye Feng smiled helplessly and shook his head.
Today marks the third day since I separated from my companions. Judging by the timeline, they should have arrived by today at the latest…
He left markers along the way, not too far apart...
There are four of them, eight eyes in total. If you're just a little careful, there's no way you wouldn't notice.
"Could it be... that they took another route?"
Ye Feng had a bad feeling…
If you take the same route again, you might be late or encounter unexpected problems.
But the thought only lasted for less than half a minute before Ye Feng shook his head again…
He had a high opinion of Liu Sisi's abilities and intelligence.
Liu Sisi knew that a group of people were chasing her, given their fighting strength.
If you were to encounter them head-on, the odds would be against you.
Therefore, she would never choose to follow the original route.
And he had shown the route map to everyone; it was just a few simple lines…
If Fu Changxiong could remember it, Liu Sisi would certainly not forget it.
So, now that we've ruled out the possibility that they took the original route and got lost, only two possibilities remain...
They either encountered other people and were temporarily trapped, unable to escape.
They either encountered wild animals and were injured, making it impossible for them to get here quickly.
Ye Feng frowned, the more he thought about it, the more it made sense…
It's now almost certain that their companions are in danger.
He immediately stood up and prepared to grab the compound bow…
But when he turned around and looked at the sky, he put his hand down...
Today is a cloudy and rainy day, and it got dark much earlier than usual.
Normally it's around 6 o'clock, but today I estimate I'll have to arrive at least half an hour earlier.
If I go out now, I'm afraid I'll get lost before I can find them.
After thinking it over, he finally decided to first find some building materials or collect some firewood, and then go find his teammates tomorrow…
Time flies, and it was already around 5 p.m.
By this time, Fu Changxiong and Qi Xiaojie had been walking for about an hour.
They walked and searched, following the arrows, and now came to a place with uneven slopes made up of stones of different sizes.
The two had walked more than 200 meters, but the arrow mark left by Ye Feng suddenly disappeared completely...
This should have been a happy thing, indicating that they were getting closer and closer to Ye Feng.
Or perhaps, Ye Feng is nearby...
Qi Xiaojie carried Qi Xiaoyan on his back for half an hour along the mountain path, and by this time, he was completely soaked in sweat.
It turned out that Qi Xiaoyan had completely fallen into a coma just half an hour earlier.
If it weren't for the discovery that she still had a heartbeat, anyone would have thought she was completely dead...
Her face now looks exactly like a dead person's...
Qi Xiaojie was extremely anxious; he knew his sister wouldn't last much longer…
So he hurriedly started walking uphill. Desperate times call for desperate measures; unable to find any arrows, he figured he had no choice but to just go for it…
"Brother Xiong...Brother Feng...he's definitely...he's up there..."
"Thump..."
Before he could finish speaking, a dull thud came from behind him.
Qi Xiaojie immediately sensed something was wrong and turned around to look...
Fu Changxiong fell face down to the ground, while Liu Sisi also fell to the side...
He knew that Fu Changxiong also had arrow wounds and had been struggling to hold on all the way, but now he was probably at his limit...
"Brother Xiong!"
Qi Xiaojie rushed over, put Qi Xiaoyan down, and immediately turned Fu Changxiong over...
Along the way, he mostly looked for road signs and led the way, rarely observing Fu Changxiong.
Now, upon closer inspection, it becomes clear that his lips and complexion are almost identical to his sister's—eerily pale.
The clothes were completely soaked with sweat and blood…
"Xiong-ge! No! Don't fall asleep..."
With a sob in his voice, he kept shaking Fu Changxiong…
"Don't...don't die! Your daughter...is still...waiting for you!"
Under the violent shaking, Fu Changxiong slightly pulled up his eyelids... He felt as if his eyes were covered with a thin mist.
Qi Xiaojie in front of him became blurry. Even his facial features were completely blurred...
He could only feel Qi Xiaojie's warm tears hitting his face...
He was actually already exhausted, and he had only managed to get through this journey thanks to his strong willpower and physical condition.
He thought that if he could just hold on a little longer, he could lighten Qi Xiaojie's burden considerably.
If he were to collapse again, Qi Xiaojie would absolutely not be able to go this far on his own.
But now, he really has no strength left...
Even so, he forced a smile and said in a barely audible voice:
