Chapter 213
There are many thieves in the forest who steal food. These thieves usually choose to act in the dead of night, and they are hard to guard against. It is the first time that the people on the riverside have encountered such open-minded and domineering beasts like monkeys.

The people on the riverside were about to explode, and the loss came second. The most annoying thing was that they were output by a group of stupid monkeys riding on their faces, and they were even ridiculed.

However, these monkeys are obviously not stupid.

The monkey group seemed to know very well that as long as they kept moving, the weapons of the riverside people would not easily hit them. They also chose the timing very cleverly. Slip, don't give the Riverside people a chance to organize a counterattack.

This group of monkeys obviously knew the group of two-legged beasts living by the river very well, and their plan was very thorough. This should have been a perfect operation, but unfortunately something unexpected happened, a group of strangers came to the forest People, they not only waited for work with ease, but also took out weapons that the monkeys had never seen before.

Some of the monkeys hit by the arrow died on the spot, and some were still struggling to escape. The hunters immediately stepped forward to make up the knife.

Zhang Tian asked: "Leave a living."

The arrogant group of monkeys made everyone a little dumbfounded, but Zhang Tian and Lin Yu were not surprised, they had seen even more arrogant ones.

The primitive ancestors must have never imagined that after more than 1 years, the monkeys in some areas can no longer be described as arrogant. That's a notorious one.

But this group of monkeys is more special.

Generally speaking, even apes of the same species have their own territory and range of activities. Once the territory is demarcated, they will not communicate with each other unless they compete for territory.

Among this group of monkeys, just the ones shot down include macaques, langurs, gibbons, bear monkeys and other apes. They must be scattered all over the forest and guard their respective territories, but now they are acting together , which in itself is a very unusual thing.

Combined with the wolves last night and the experience of the Rock Castle people, Zhang Tian naturally thought that the animals in this forest might have been integrated by some kind of force.

"Woo! Woo! Woo!"

Zhang Tian's thoughts were interrupted by the monkey's violent roar.

Langya tied a monkey's arms and neck with ropes, and led it to Zhang Tian like a dog.

Lin Yu looked at his eyes carefully. The monkey's fur was khaki, its face was bare and hairless, its outline was sharp, its eye sockets were ring-shaped, and its face was fierce.

"It's a macaque," she said.

An arrow was firmly inserted into the macaque's left buttock, as if an extra tail had grown out.

Perhaps because of pain, or perhaps because of anger, the macaque raised its head and opened its mouth wide, revealing a mouthful of foul-smelling yellow-green teeth.

But Zhang Tian knew that it was bluffing.

Monkeys love bluffing the most.

He decided to start with the macaque first.

[Faith value: 1201]

[You use magical psychic. 】

[Please choose an ethnic group, you will master the communication methods of this ethnic group. 】

[You choose macaque. 】

[You have mastered the communication method of the local apes. 】

[Faith value: 1101]

Almost all living things have the ability to communicate, and even plants can transmit information through chemical and electrical signals.

Of course, the efficiency of different communication methods is definitely different. Among all communication methods, human language can undoubtedly convey the most abundant information and is relatively the most convenient.

Animals, like humans, also use their senses to communicate. The commonly used methods include visual communication, auditory communication, olfactory communication, tactile communication and so on.

At this moment, Zhang Tian, ​​who has mastered the communication method of apes, can understand the "words" of the macaque in front of him from its posture, movements, facial expressions, eye movement and changes in expression.

For example, at this time, it is striding forward, its tail is raised, and the tip of the tail is bent back into a semicircle. It is actually saying: I don’t accept it!

Macaques are social animals with a large size, ranging from tens to hundreds of individuals in a group. A strict ranking system is implemented in the monkey group, and the male adult monkeys are ranked through brutal fighting.

The position of the top leader is detached, and enjoys the privilege of eating first, occupying land and choosing a mate among the monkeys.

In other words, although macaques are notoriously aggressive monkeys, as long as they are convinced, they will become obedient.

"Woo! Woo! Woo!"

The macaque kept "barking and barking".

At this time, Zhang Tian understood. It was not only venting its anger, but also provoking and insulting. The simple smell of the mouth brought extreme enjoyment, and you could tell how happy it was by looking at its expression.

Although animals don't have a codified language, they still rely heavily on vocal communication for everything from performing courtship rituals, to warning calls, to communicating food locations, to social learning...

The sound used to convey information does not have to be a cry, but can also be a sound made by rubbing, tapping, or beating.

Zhang Tian thumped the ground violently, then fell on all fours, twisted his face, and grinned at the macaque, a whine that only the macaque could understand brewed in his throat.

Everyone present was shocked.

"My lord priest..."

The clansmen thought that Priest Sky was ill, and wanted to step forward to help him, but Lin Yu stopped him.

"Just watch quietly, the sky is negotiating with this monkey."

"Ah this..."

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, with a little surprise in their astonishment. So, does the sky priest know monkey language?
After thinking about it, since the sky knows everything, it is normal for the sky priest to know more.

Macaques are scarier than these Twolegs!

It was so frightened that it backed away again and again until the rope that bound its wrist was taut, making it impossible to retreat.

It understood Zhang Tian's signal and understood his "words". It couldn't believe its eyes and ears. It immediately closed its barking mouth and looked at the four-legged animal in front of it in astonishment. two-legged beast.

This guy...is he a human or a monkey?How do you know the rules of the macaque family?

It got a little confused, and then started to panic, because the "human monkey" in front of it was provoking it to a duel!

It is the kind of duel that is not only superior, but also life and death.

What a joke!You are so big and I am so small, isn't this bullying the honest monkey?

The macaque was very puzzled, this guy didn't look like its kind, why did he know how to initiate a duel and compete with it?

Arranging seats in a duel is a very common thing in its group. According to the rules, once one party initiates, the other party must either accept it and fight a big battle, or surrender and surrender. There is no third way to go. .

The macaque is not stupid. After looking at the size of the enemy and us, the physique of the man-monkey in front of him is about to catch up with the orangutan, and he must not be able to beat it.

But if it just admits it like this, and respects this monster who is neither human nor monkey as its big brother, it will also be unwilling.

After a while, the macaque also bared its teeth, squeaked twice, then turned around, and twisted its buttocks at the man-monkey opposite, and the feathered arrow stuck in its buttocks also swayed with its hips.

"I'm injured, my ass hurts, I can't duel."

It probably means that.

Zhang Tian sneered in his belly, thinking, you stinky monkey, are you still playing tricks on me?

There is no reason to avoid a duel, on the contrary, taking advantage of the opponent's illness is the kingly way!

With a loud roar, he waved his arms and rushed forward!

The macaque screamed in fright, and immediately prostrated itself on the ground, buried its head very low, and dropped its high tail to the ground, as if surrendering.

Zhang Tian patted it lightly and cooed twice, expressing that he accepted its surrender and was willing to accept it as a younger brother.

The macaque's heart finally fell back into its belly.

It can't fault the opponent's operation, movement, voice, demeanor... except that it doesn't smell like a monkey, doesn't look like a monkey, everything else is completely in line with the rules passed down from generation to generation by the macaque family, but... it always feels Something is not quite right.

However, the complexity of this matter far exceeded the load capacity of its little head, it couldn't figure it out, and it didn't bother to think about it.

Recently, there are many unusual things in the forest. If everything has to be pondered, should it still live?
This forest has its rules, and all kinds of animals living in this forest have their own rules.

As long as you follow the rules, you can never go wrong if you follow the rules.

It raised its head and secretly glanced at its newly recognized big brother.

This big brother has a bit of severe hair loss, but he looks very strong, stronger than his previous big brothers.

Of course, it is still a thousand miles away from the king of monkeys, but it can be the king among the macaques. In the future, the eldest brother will be the king. As long as he has a good relationship with the eldest brother, he may be able to become the second brother.

Moreover, with the big brother covering it, the group of two-legged beasts should let it go, right?
Seek good luck and avoid bad luck, animal instinct.

The macaque instinctively realizes that its new big brother will do it good.

It saw the elder brother making a gesture and making a creaking sound.

This group of actions and calls is very common, and it is often used to catch lice for each other or to help each other.

The macaque knew that the eldest brother was planning to heal himself.

This big brother understands too well... he is completely macaque!Perhaps, the eldest brother is a macaque, but he doesn't look like a monkey?

The macaque was still skeptical at first, but now it is convinced and decides to hang out with the elder brother for the time being. If the elder brother loses to a stronger monkey in the future, it will just choose another Mingjun.

The macaque family has always regarded strength as the king, and there is no such thing as loyalty.

It chirped and cooed, expressing as much obedience and kindness as possible.

Zhang Tian understood its statement, and felt that the monkey's hostility had completely disappeared, so he was obviously convinced.

He untied the rope, and the macaque moved its arms happily.

Seeing the berserk monkey suddenly become calm and honest, everyone couldn't help being amazed, and thinking of Tian's vivid imitation just now, they thought it was extremely funny.

They didn't quite understand why the sky priest went to such great lengths to negotiate with the monkey, but there was no doubt that there must be a reason for him to do so.

Zhang Tian greeted: "Lin, it's your turn."

Lin Yu approached with a medical bag.

The macaque immediately bared its teeth and stared fiercely at the visitor.

Zhang Tian signaled it to be friendly, and the macaque obediently calmed down, still staring at Lin Yu vigilantly.

Lin Yu took out a pill.

This is a "sugar-coated cannonball" that she kneads from aconitum mixed with maple syrup. Aconitum is both poison and medicine. An overdose can be fatal, and an appropriate amount can have an anesthetic effect.

After all, the macaque is a beast. Although it has surrendered, if it is hurt or feels pain, it will still get angry and mad, and even violently hurt others.

And to treat its arrow wounds, pain is inevitable.

Just in case, get an anesthesia first, and try the effect of the new drug by the way.

For this pill, Lin Yu referred to the dosage of the Hepan people. The Hepan people often use darts to poison monkeys—this may be the reason why they are hated and retaliated by the monkeys—they know how much poison to apply to the monkeys. Deadly enough.

On this basis, Lin Yu reduced the dosage to avoid harming his life.

She handed the pill to Zhang Tian, ​​who then handed it to the macaque and ordered it to eat it.

The macaque sniffed, and it smelled a sweet scent that reminded it of the fresh and juicy shoots on the treetops in spring.

It didn't hesitate, threw it into its mouth and chewed it, and swallowed it.

"grumble?"

It suddenly felt dizzy for a while, and then its legs went limp, and it fell down feebly.

……

"I heard you caught a monkey?"

"I heard that the sky maiden fought with it?"

"It is said that……"

The story of the witch in the sky fighting the monkey quickly spread to the ears of the people on the riverside. This kind of funny gossip spread faster than anything else. When the sun was setting, the young and strong who went out to look for food also returned one after another, setting off another wave of discussion , the camp is full of cheerful atmosphere.

Many people came to visit the macaque that was persuaded to surrender by the sky maiden.

"Aren't you awake yet? You won't die, will you?"

"I'm panting, I can't die."

Lin Yu’s dosage was obviously too high. Wuwu—the name Dr. Lin gave to the macaque—had been in a coma for several hours. She had already pulled out the arrow and resorted to what she had learned all her life: disinfection, application of medicine, and bandaging. Set, to treat trauma to the monkey.

With her meager medical skills, she had to work part-time as a veterinarian, which she never expected.

It's fine if he doesn't wake up, after all, the food at night is his companion, the rabbit dies and the fox is sad, and things hurt his kind. As the eldest brother, Zhang Tian still has to take care of his younger brother's mood.

After dinner, Zhang Tian returned to Wuwu, patted it on the shoulder, and let out a squawking sound, urging it to get up.

As night fell, in his perception, the hostility surrounding the camp began to stir again.

He has something to ask it, but he can't let it sleep until tomorrow.

Wuwu's eyelids moved, and then slowly opened his eyes, still a little dizzy, obviously the effect of the medicine has not completely passed.

But soon, it was awakened by the pain from the buttocks, its eyes widened, it kept sucking air into its mouth as if it was burning its mouth, and whimpered.

It held back and didn't move, because the elder brother told him not to move.

Although the butt hurts, but the foreign body in the butt is gone, which is a good thing, the elder brother must have treated the wound for it, and it knows it well.

Zhang Tian took some young leaves and fruits for it to eat first, and then cut to the point after it finished eating.
