Chapter 1022 1021. Lilliputian (55)
The plantain worm did not come back for a long time, which made Li Du a little worried.
Big Ivan pulled out a Colt pistol, he spat out the gum and said, "Boss, may I go look for it?"
Lu Guan said weakly: "There's no need to be so nervous, right? What other beast can take him away?"
Big Ivan said: "Beasts are not scary, but people are afraid. Who knows if he was captured by people from some tribe, or if he and people from the tribe joined forces to make arrangements?"
Li Du shook his head and said, "You don't have to think that way, the plantain bug is not this kind of person, I mean, he has no brains to design such a trap as you think."
"It's always better to be careful," said Big Ivan.
Brother Wolf agreed with him, and also took out a gun.
The lion hunter prepared a rifle for them, a brand-new AK-74U, which is an old gun that has been born for a long time, but it is very powerful in jungle warfare.
After waiting for more than forty minutes, Li Du became impatient, and the figure of the plantain bug finally appeared.
He is carrying a black mamba, with two wild birds and a hare hanging from his waist. He walks lightly and seems to be in high spirits.
Li Du asked in astonishment: "Are you going hunting?"
The plantain bug said happily: "We've been recruited, my tribe, we've been recruited."
Upon hearing this, Li Du immediately stood up and asked excitedly, "Have you found the way back to the tribe?"
"Yes." The banana bug nodded vigorously.
They extinguished the bonfire and buried it tightly with soil. After making sure that it would not cause a fire, a group of people followed the plantain insects to the depths of the woods.
Huge trees lined up row upon row, with towering trunks reaching into the sky, and some trees still grow green leaves, with luxuriant branches and leaves, covering the sky and the sun!
It was too difficult to travel in the jungle. As they walked into the depths of the forest, they encountered more rivers, most of which were small rivers and streams. They seemed to be able to run into one after a few steps.
Some herds of deer live in the woods, but they are very vigilant, a little troubled, and immediately flee when they hear the wind.
After walking and resting, another hour passed, and they still didn't see the location of the Pygmies' tribe.
Li Du felt that they might not be in South Africa, but entered Botswana, because this forest straddled the two countries of South Africa and Botswana.
If so, it increases the possibility of the existence of diamond mines. Botswana is a famous diamond producing area in the world.
While walking, Ah Miao, who was leading the way in front, suddenly rushed to the big tree next to him, and at the same time uttered a sharp cry to the side: "Meow meow meow!"
Ah Ao, Crispy Noodles, and Ali were the first to react when they heard its cry. They also looked sideways and forward, and quickly got together, protecting Sophie behind them vigilantly.
Following Ali's fourth child's eyes, Li Du and others looked over and saw a beast on a tree.
This beast is very similar to Meow, but bigger and stronger than Meow. It has a brownish-yellow fur with black spots on it. It is the famous African animal, the cheetah.
The cheetah has a beautiful appearance. It has a black stripe from the corner of its mouth to the corner of its eyes. It has a slender body and smooth lines. There is a black ring on its long tail. Looking at it lying on a tree, its body outline looks like a bronze statue.
The two sides met each other, and the cheetah was lying on a branch of a tree and staring at Li Du and his party. Its four long legs were drooping under the branch, and it seemed that it had no hostility towards them, but was enjoying life leisurely.
Brother Wolf and Big Ivan immediately aimed their guns at the cheetah, but neither shot.
Among them, brother wolf glanced at the cheetah and waved quickly, and said in a low voice, "pass through here quickly and leave this way."
Li Du didn't want to provoke this beast, nor did he intend to hunt it down, after all, this was their entry into other people's territory.
Of course, he didn't have the courage to provoke the cheetah, which is a jungle killer. They are currently the fastest running animals on land in the world, with a speed of 112 kilometers per hour.
As we all know, cheetahs are extremely explosive, especially in short-distance bursts. If the human sprint world champion competes with a cheetah in a 100-meter race, the cheetah can let the world champion run 60 meters first, so that the cheetah will reach the finish line first.
On the same tree as the cheetah was the carcass of an antelope, or half an antelope, which had been torn to pieces and should be food for the cheetah.
Maybe it was because they were full, and because Li Du and his party were so numerous, Cheetah also didn't want to provoke them.
The two sides looked at each other, then lived in peace, and finally separated.
The plantain bug led the way and walked for more than an hour. When Sophie was exhausted, a whistle suddenly sounded from a tree.
Everyone looked up subconsciously, and saw a small black man standing on a branch of a big tree, looking at them with piercing eyes.
Similar to a plantain bug, the small black man is only about 1.3 meters tall, with a thin body, wearing a grass skirt, holding a homemade short bow in his hand, and a horn-like thing hanging around his neck.
Seeing the black man, the plantain worm cheered, "Akana Akana!"
The black man identified it carefully, then grabbed the horns hanging around his neck, raised his head and blew: "Woooooo!"
Soon, more than a dozen small black men appeared, and the plantain bug was even happier, dancing and shouting: "Akana, Akana! Akana!"
The other blacks ran out. They turned a blind eye to Li Du and his party. They ran to the plantain bug and danced around him, shaking their bodies, shouting, "Akana!"
Luguan then shook his body and said, "Akana!"
Li Du said: "What does this mean?"
Lu Guan said: "I don't know, maybe it's a happy tone?"
Only then did the little black people look back at them, and one of them had a puzzled expression on his face and said, "Akana?"
Seeing his expression and feeling the questioning tone in his words, Li Du felt something was wrong, and asked the plantain worm, "What does Akana mean?"
The plantain worm said: "Hi from the tribe has returned home."
"What do you mean by returning home?"
"right."
Li Du pushed Luguan out and said, "Very good, buddy, you belong to their tribe now."
The plantain bug chattered something to the little black people, and the little black people made a movement towards Li Du and his party, patted the forehead with the back of their hands, and then waved their hands to the sky.
Li Du said: "This is?"
The plantain bug smiled and said, "Phantom, Phantom Nimen."
Surrounded by the little black people, they walked forward, passed through a series of tall trees, and a flat land appeared in front of them, and their vision suddenly became wider.
Many huts stand on flat ground. These huts are so small that they may be 1.56 meters high. There are small bonfires, small stools, and small carts on the ground, and they are all miniature.
In short, they seem to have entered the Lilliputian.
