Chapter 1289 Dry branches

It was a huge and messy pile of branches. It looked like a nest. The nest was at least three meters high from the water.

Xiao Se looked at the dry branches and said in surprise: "This must have been the nest of the giant salamanders originally. Later, after the drought, the water level dropped, and the nest stayed there!"

"We just used it to make a fire to dry our clothes and roast fish to eat." Ye Feng did not expect that he would actually find a fish and beast's nest by the water. No one would believe it if he told it.

Xiao Se smiled with crooked eyebrows. She really didn't expect that the random nonsense would actually come true.

It seems that the giant salamander dived out from under the water, like an otter, dragging branches into the cave and playing with the trees here like toys.

Eventually the water level dropped and the toy sat there, a bleak pile of firewood.

Night Breeze shouted to Fengshou and others: "Come here, there are dry branches here, take them over and light the fire."

Feng Sheng and others rushed over screaming, laughing crazy when they looked at the huge pile of branches. They moved the branches over and lit a fire, drying Xiao Xe's clothes first, and then their clothes.

After everyone's clothes are dried, the fish will be grilled.

Fengshou smiled with a smile on his face: "There are actually branches in the cave here! I can't believe it. Arthur, are you trying to say that this branch was dragged in by the giant salamander just now?"

Ah Ri also hurriedly said: "Yes, I don't believe it can crawl again. Can it climb up and down again from the mud pit where we fell?"

"Yes, although this giant salamander is very big and has hands and feet, I think it is definitely not as powerful as humans!"

"Stop guessing, just ask Arthur directly."

The tribesmen chattered and speculated, and finally looked at Xiao Se. Even Ye Feng had a smile on his lips, looking at the dark water of the water warily while admiring his Arthur.

Xiao Se chuckled and said: "Your guess is right. No matter how big it is, it is still a fish beast. It cannot climb out of the mud pit and reach the ground with a rope like us."

Fengshou suddenly realized: "So, they have wings!"

Xiao Se really wanted to laugh at his words: "Of course not. Look, this underground cave is big. Think about it, this underground water space should be larger, and it may lead to a small river in the forest."

"The branches fell into the small river and floated with the current until they reached the dark cave and flowed here. Then the fish and beast picked up the branches and piled them here as their toys."

This explanation made everyone suddenly realize that this was much more reliable than the idea of ​​having wings from Harvest.

"Then can we go out along this stream?"

Xiao Se and others all looked at Ye Feng who was asking the question.

Ye Feng's face was slightly warm and he said again: "Look at this tree, it's as thick as my waist. It can come in, so we should be able to get out too."

Fengshou and the others all opened their eyes in surprise, and were filled with joy: "Yes, it would be best if we could get out of the water. I don't want to get into the mud again."

"It's fast to fall out of a mud pit, but not so fast for us to climb out."

"And I have to experience having my whole body filled with mud again. I really don't want to."

Ye Feng and others looked at Xiao Se, waiting for her to speak out.

Xiao Se frowned and thought for a while and said: "The idea is very good, but I want to say one thing, this is underground water, the water is between ten and 20 meters above the ground."

"In addition to the depth of the water, there is also the length of the water. If this current is very long, how long can you hold your breath and swim across it?"

"If this water flow is except for a cave here, it means there is no other place for us to breathe."

"Perhaps we will be drowned before we reach the source of the water."

This statement silenced everyone. They were not fish, so naturally they couldn't live in the water for that long. This idea was not advisable.

Finally, Night Breeze decided: "Go back the way we came."

There are too many uncontrollable factors in the dark water. If he can't ensure the safety of his tribe, then don't take risks.

Moreover, the giant salamander that wanted to attack Arthur was still in the water. Who knew where it was hiding and whether it would rush out and bite them.Fengshou and the others nodded after hearing this: "Yes, that giant salamander is a ferocious creature and cannot be entered into the water."

"The fish is grilled, but it's a little fishy!"

"It would be nice if you can eat it. I want it to be as delicious as the food in the tribe!"

"Hey, I miss the delicious food of the tribe!"

"Me too, I feel like I can eat seven or eight bowls this time when I go back!"

"Why are you eating so much? It's a waste of food."

"That's right, three bowls are enough. Too much is a waste."

Xiao Se listened to the laughter of the tribesmen. She smiled lightly and said nothing. She took the cooked but fishy salmon meat without salt and took a small bite.

Hey, don't tell me, although this giant salamander is very big and old, its meat is very tender, with a bit of jelly in it.

Although there are no condiments and it smells a bit fishy, ​​it tastes delicious.

Also, the blood of these creatures has the taste of salt, not to mention that it grows in the underground water of caves, so the meat is certainly more delicious.

Fengsheng took a bite of the fish and shouted happily: "Wow, it's so delicious!"

Suddenly, the cave echoed with the sound of harvest. The sound hit the cave wall and bounced back, and faint water ripples brushed the tail of a fish.

The giant salamander that made a sneak attack stared at a group of unknown creatures roasting on the fire, baring its ferocious fangs.

It gently swung its tail and swam towards Xiao Se and the others silently.

The tribesmen who ate the meat of the giant salamander all exclaimed: "It's delicious, much better than the fish and beasts in our reservoir."

"It's simply incomparable. I really want to catch two and bring them back to the tribe."

"Fish and beasts can't live out of water. If you catch them, you can't take them back. You can only give them to Ah Sheng and the others to eat."

Harvest sighed: "That's a shame."

Xiao Se smiled and said: "Although this is called a giant salamander, it has legs like a skink, so it can live in the water as well as on the shore."

"The basic one can live for ten days and a half, and the strong ones can live for more than a month!"

Everyone was surprised: "Isn't this fish so powerful that it can live for a month without water?"

In their minds, fish and beasts cannot leave the water and cannot live without the water. They did not expect that there are giant salamanders that can live for more than a month without the water.

Xiao Se chuckled: "It's amazing after being out of water for more than a month! There is a fish called African lungfish, which can live out of water for months or even years."

Everyone was shocked again: "How many years?"

Xiao Se nodded vigorously and said sincerely: "Yes. There is a piece of land there that will be without water like our drought this time."

"The lungfish will wrap itself in its own mucus, lurk in the mud, and then come out when the rainy season comes."

"Not only can it live out of water for several years, its lifespan is longer than humans."

"If it is not caught and eaten by humans, it can live for more than 90 years!"

Everyone was amazed again, curious about these strange things, and admired Arthur for knowing so much.

Ye Feng looked at Arthur with eyes that were so soft that water could drip from his eyes, full of affection and affection.

Suddenly, his expression changed and he looked sharply into the dark water.
