The pouring water curtain is like a mirror. Under the sunlight, the waves sparkle, and the stone cave is also illuminated by the bright light of the water curtain, which is mysterious and unusual.

At this time, Qin Xiao suddenly discovered that there were many fruits growing on the surrounding stone walls.

These fruits are all red in color, but the leaves on the edges are purple. Qin Xiao has read a lot of books and has some knowledge of many exotic flowers and plants, but he has never seen such red fruits.

The red fruit grows from the cracks in the stone wall. Although it is not big, it is as red as fire and looks very good.

Qin Xiao knew that the more beautiful the fruits, the more poisonous they were, and he didn't know whether these red fruits were poisonous.

I stood up. Although my whole body was still a little sore, it was nothing serious.

He was curious in his heart that the giant ape caught him last night and did not kill him, but instead threw him into this cave. He didn't know what it wanted.

Qin Xiao knew that the giant ape was completely different from the mandrill.

This giant ape is huge, and it looks like it has lived for many years. Qin Xiao knows that although it is a spiritual creature in the mountains, it should not be underestimated. Such a strange beast must have spirituality, and it may have a purpose to bring him to the cave.

.

Outside the cave is the suspended stone path. Qin Xiao knows that this suspended stone path is connected to the big stone platform on the opposite side. In the middle is the deep pool. Only ten steps away from the cave is the large curtain of water pouring down.

Qin Xiao didn't know if the giant ape was still on the big stone platform. He walked to the water curtain, took a deep breath, and rushed forward like a cheetah. The waterfall hit him, which was extremely heavy. Fortunately, he was very fast.

Quickly, pass through quickly, and your whole body will be wet in just one move.

After passing through the water curtain, the sun was shining brightly, and the suspended stone path led directly to the opposite side. I saw the giant ape sitting on the edge of the deep pool with his back to this side, seeming to be looking at something.

Last night I only saw the giant ape's long hair, but I didn't see the color clearly. Now under the sun, I can clearly see that the giant ape's body is mainly brown hair, but there are many white hairs mixed in. It is obvious that the age of this giant ape

He is no longer young, he is even an old ape.

I don't know if the old ape heard the movement behind him, but he was sitting there like a stone sculpture, seeming to be basking in the sun and reminiscing about the past.

Qin Xiao secretly complained that the giant ape was sitting at the entrance of the suspended stone path. If he wanted to leave, the suspended stone path was the only exit. Now it was blocked by the giant ape and he could not leave at all.

He looked down and saw that the deep pool was bottomless, and the waterfall hit it, creating violent waves. He knew that if he fell from the stone path, he would be shattered to pieces.

In front is a giant ape blocking the road. One ape is the barrier, and no one can get past it. On the left and right are deep pools with no bottom, and behind is a stone cave. There is really no way to go from heaven to earth, and Qin Xiao never thought that he would be there.

Being stuck in such a situation, I can't even think of a way to leave even if I break my head.

I retreated to the cave and simply ignored everything else. I practiced [Ancient Intention and Qi Jue] for two hours and felt refreshed.

He thought that as long as the giant ape stayed for one day, he would not be able to leave. His only hope was to wait for the giant ape to leave so that he could take the opportunity to escape.

When hunters go up to the mountains to hunt, they can encounter giant apes in the jungle, which proves that this guy often moves around in the mountains and forests and cannot always stay at the stone platform.

But when this giant ape will leave is really a question.

If it never leaves, will I be trapped here to death?

Being trapped here, the first thing to solve is the problem of food and drink. The water source is not a problem. After exiting the cave, there is a waterfall. The water in this mountain is naturally sweet enough to nourish people, and there is also a clay pot in the cave for serving food.

Water is perfect.

But food is really a problem.

Qin Xiao has been carrying the package prepared by Hong Ye. There is still some dry food in it, which can last for two or three days. But once two or three days pass, what will happen?

However, I also thought that the giant ape could not stay at the intersection for two or three days, so I kept observing from time to time. As long as the old ape left, it would be the time for me to escape.

He knew that it was useless to worry. Now that he had thought of a solution and there was still hope, he no longer had to worry.

In the next two days, he ate and drank, and walked through the water curtain from time to time to check on the situation, but the old ape sat there the whole time, like a stone statue. Qin Xiao could only go back disappointed every time.

At dusk on the third day, Qin Xiao went out again, but was pleasantly surprised to find that the giant ape had disappeared. He was really overjoyed and thought to himself that it was just the right time for the old ape to leave. He had run out of dry food before his eyes. If he could not leave again,

, I really want to starve to death.

He looked around to make sure that the old ape was not nearby. He immediately let go of his legs and ran quickly across the suspended stone path. As soon as he reached the big stone platform, he heard an ape roar. Qin Xiao was frightened to death, and saw something not far away.

Behind a big rock, the old ape jumped up into the sky, and after a few jumps, he was already in front of him.

"I'm really going to die now." Qin Xiao felt weak all over.

However, the old ape still didn't hurt Qin Xiao. He circled around Qin Xiao a few times and sniffed with his nose. Suddenly he reached out and grabbed Qin Xiao by the collar. He returned to the deep pool and, just like last time, pulled Qin Xiao away.

Xiao was thrown into the cave again.

Qin Xiao fell into a coma as expected this time. When he woke up, it was pitch black outside. He knew it was late at night, so he struggled to sit up, smiling bitterly, thinking that the old ape had really become a spirit.

There is no doubt that the old ape was hiding behind the rock on purpose, just waiting for him to get out.

It seemed that the old ape guessed what he was thinking and knew that he wanted to escape when it left, so he hid deliberately and gave himself a good look when he got out.

The old ape had infinite strength and amazing speed. He was not something he could handle. Now this old guy actually had the wisdom to set a trap. Qin Xiao felt that life could not be more miserable than this.

In the next two days, Qin Xiao, in addition to practicing the [Ancient Intention Art], occasionally went out to take a look. Most of the time, the old ape stayed there. He disappeared twice. Qin Xiao did not dare to go out easily, and deliberately waited for a long time.

, once the old ape couldn't hold on anymore and ran out on his own. Another time after waiting for a stick of incense, Qin Xiao saw no movement and crept to the big stone platform. When he saw the old ape just jumping out from behind the rock, he immediately turned around and ran away.

Returned to the cave.

Two days later, Qin Xiao had no more food. He had been hungry for a whole day and his body was a little weak. He could only drink water to fill his stomach. Until the evening of the next day, he was so hungry that he was faint. The old ape was still unshakable.

Stay there.

Looking at the bright red fruits on the stone wall, Qin Xiao knew that if he ate these fruits, he might be able to survive. However, he was not sure whether the red fruits were poisonous. If he took the poisonous fruit, he would not starve to death but be poisoned.

, that’s really sad.

By midnight, I couldn't stand it anymore.

I thought to myself, this cave has obviously been lived by someone. Since that person lived in the cave, he may have eaten the red fruit. If the red fruit is poisonous, that person must have died of the poison long ago. If he died, the old ape

Since there is no way to collect the body through the suspended stone passage, the body must rot in the cave.

But there are no dead bones in this cave. In other words, unless the person has never taken the red fruit, it can only prove that the red fruit is not poisonous.

Qin Xiaoxun thought that the only food that could keep him going right now was red fruits. Even if he was poisoned to death, it would be better than starving to death.

It is not yet certain whether the red fruit is poisonous or not. There is at least a half chance that it is not poisonous. It would be a big joke if one were to starve to death while guarding the non-toxic red fruit.

Without hesitation, I picked a red fruit from the stone wall. Without thinking, I threw it into my mouth and took a bite. A sweet juice filled my mouth, and then a burst of fragrance wafted from my mouth.

"It tastes good." Qin Xiao couldn't help but admire it.

He picked a dozen more from the stone wall and ate them all in a matter of seconds.

The stone wall is covered with red fruits, at least two to three hundred of them. If you eat sparingly, you can survive for a while.

Although more than a dozen fruits were eaten in his stomach, he was still not full, but he was not so hungry that he felt dizzy.

Lying on a pile of hay with my pillow on my back, the lingering fragrance lingers in my mouth.

After sleeping for a while, I was woken up by a feeling of heat. At this time, I found that my whole body was stained with sweat. What was terrible was that my chest and five internal organs seemed to be on fire. It was extremely uncomfortable, and sweat was pouring from my skin to my skin.

Overflow.

Qin Xiao quickly took off his clothes, leaving only a pair of shorts, but the heat was still unstoppable.

It was March, and the weather in Xiling was still quite cool, especially at night. It was even a bit cold. There was a waterfall outside the cave, and it was even colder inside the cave at night.

Qin Xiao immediately thought of the red fruit he had eaten. If nothing unexpected happened, it must have been the red fruit that caused the abnormality in his body.

He was upset, but at this time, his body was extremely hot, as if he was in a steamer. He had no choice but to rush out of the cave and run under the waterfall, hoping that the coolness of the waterfall's water would alleviate his intense heat.

He did not dare to go to the middle of the water waves. The huge waterfall curtain was full of impact. If he was in the center, if he was not careful, he would be swept under the suspended stone path by the waterfall, and he could only stand on the edge.

However, the amount of water was enough to cover his whole body.

Although it was on the edge, the impact from top to bottom was extremely powerful. Qin Xiao clenched his fists with both hands and tried his best to stabilize his body. Even so, his body was still shaken by the impact of the water waves.

The cold water poured over the whole body, and the feeling of intense heat was indeed alleviated somewhat. However, the intense heat did not come from the outside, but within one's own body. Although the cold water hit the body, the whole body was still sweating, and the water from the waterfall was mixed with the sweat.

, that feeling has never been experienced before.

After standing like this for more than half an hour, the burning feeling slowly dissipated. Qin Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, returned to the cave, and sat on the haystack. His whole body was soaked and sweating.

But suddenly I felt that my whole person was refreshed and felt an indescribable sense of comfort.

He lay down on his back, and this time he squinted his eyes and fell asleep.

When he woke up, it was already bright. Qin Xiao sat up and suddenly found that the skin all over his body was rosy, as if he had applied rouge. He was stunned for a while. The rouge did not fade away for a long time. Qin Xiao was surprised and thought to himself.
