Zha Wenbin's hands were pinched by the giant ape at this moment, unable to move. Just as it was about to be fatal, he fiercely lifted his right foot and kicked the giant ape's crotch with all his might.
The giant ape let out a pained cry and crouched down, causing Zhang Wenbin to also heavily fall onto the rocks.
The two of them fell down together, rolling as one, and this place was originally a slope, only a few meters away from the waterfall. At this moment, they were hugging each other and rolling straight towards the edge of the cliff.
Cha Wenbin and the ape fell into the water, and just outside was a 100-meter waterfall. The ape refused to let go, even when Cha Wenbin tried to use his Seven-Star Sword, but it was too late. He could only follow the current downstream, and as the sound of rushing wind and water grew louder in his ears, he realized they had already reached the edge of the cliff.
"Chaozi, Zhuoxiong, you must live... Go... Out!" This was Cha Wenbin's last roar, which also woke up Chaozi and Zhuoxiong. When they were startled awake, they only saw Cha Wenbin being pressed down by a giant ape and rolling out, disappearing from their sight before they could even get up.
When they arrived at the top of the cliff, all that could be heard was the rumbling sound of water and an endless expanse of blackness, followed by the "squeak squeak squeak" calls of monkeys behind them.
As the two turned around, a hail of stones rained down. Chaozi didn't dodge either, and in an instant, several wounds appeared on his forehead, with blood flowing freely. But perhaps the monkeys didn't understand human expressions; if they knew that once a person's eyes turned red, they were no longer human, but a killing god.
Chao Zi's eyes were already filled with a bloody color, it was unclear whether it was due to lack of rest or anger. The scene of Cha Wenbin falling off the cliff kept replaying in his mind, and that one sentence "You want to get out of here alive!" kept echoing in his ears.
He bent down, his right hand resting on the boot, and in a flash of lightning, his arm shook, and a cold light flashed by. "Plop" A Ba Shu ape fell head-first into the water, thick blood slowly flowing out from the river, and when Zhuo Xiong discovered it, his feet had already turned red.
"Ah... Ah!" Chaozi was furious, he yelled and rushed towards the group of Ba Shu apes. The one closest to him didn't even have time to retreat, and was caught by him grabbing its hind leg, swinging it in a circle in mid-air before smashing it heavily onto the nearby rock. A loud "crack" sound echoed, and that Ba Shu ape's skull had already shattered...
In an instant, two more monkeys had lost their lives. Adding to the three from before, a total of five apes had been killed by this person. The monkeys were always bullies who feared the strong and preyed on the weak. Their leader had just fallen off the waterfall, and now was the time when they were without a leader, making a ruckus with their "squeaks" as they fled in all directions, holding their heads and wanting to get away from this killing god as far as possible.
Chao Zi saw the monkeys escaping, and with a swift motion, he pulled out the dagger from the monkey's body under his foot, ready to chase. "Plop" - one of the monkeys' hind legs bent, falling to the ground. Turning around, it was Zhuo Xiong! His stone had accurately hit the monkey's hind leg. Chao Zi rushed up in three strides, grabbed the monkey and prepared to throw another one!
That ape wasn't a vegetarian, its reaction was really fast, it twisted its body and bit down on Chaozi's right hand with one mouthful. The pain made Chaozi let out a "hiss" sound, and fresh blood gushed out. But he was fine, not only did he not let go, his empty left hand grasped the ape's neck, and with a "crack" sound, the ape's head tilted to one side, its neck snapped by Chaozi!
Throw away the gibbon, Chaozi turned around and walked back to the cliff, shouting loudly for Zhang Wenbin's name. Half a sound passed, without getting any response. And the rest of the gibbons were gone, presumably they were really scared this time.
Zhuo Xiong bandaged the wound for Chao Zi, this man didn't say a word, but had two lines of tears hanging from his eyes, and with the wind blowing, accompanied by the river water, they all entered the valley together.
Listening to the rushing river water, Chaozi gritted his teeth and said, "Xiangzi, I'm going down to find Wenbin! You watch them here."
"I'll go down, your hand is still injured!"
Chaozi pushed Zhu Xiong away, "Listen to me, don't argue with me this time! Wenbin told us to get out of here alive, you have to stay here. If those monkeys come again, you know what to do. Wait for me on the cliff for three hours, no matter if Wenbin is dead or alive, I will come up because I promised him we would get out alive!" After finishing speaking, he pointed at Old Wang and Leng Yiran who were on the ground, then resolutely walked towards the cliff, grabbed the bronze chain and started climbing down.
Zhuo Xiong, on the other hand, was still praying and even knelt down to his ancestors, whom he believed had always been protecting him, begging them to bless Cha Wenbin and Chaozi's safe return. A hundred-meter drop, without professional training, would be fatal or at least severely injurious, not to mention that there were two man-eating demons below.
Chaozi bore the unbearable pressure, and with great difficulty, he returned to the water's surface. Fortunately, their wooden raft was still there. Without wiping away the water droplets on his face, he jumped onto the raft, grabbed a branch, and paddled out to the middle of the lake.
Zhuo Xiong above saw the weak light of Chaozi's flashlight, and finally breathed a sigh of relief. At least he had gone down safely, now all they could do was wait. They might have already lost Cha Wenbin, injured Lao Wang and Leng Yiran, and Chaozi absolutely couldn't be lost again.
Chaozi rowed the wooden raft, carefully searching for any signs of movement while shouting out Cha Wenbin's name, but no matter how loudly he shouted, there was no response. Suddenly, he spotted a dark shape floating on the water's surface not far away and quickly rowed over, praying in his heart that it might be Cha Wenbin.
As I walked closer, it turned out to be that dead snake. The snake was now belly up and Super Zong plucked up the courage to poke it a few times with a wooden stick. The snake didn't react at all, apparently it's dead.
Looking at this huge creature floating on the water, Chaozi thought to himself: How poisonous must this python be? Such a giant snake was killed by its own mouth, if it were a human, would there be any chance of survival? Wenbin is still down there, and it seems that the python is still alive... Chaozi didn't dare think about it anymore.
He skirted the snake's corpse, brandishing the branch in his hand with all his might, not letting go of any corner, and carefully searched the entire lake surface, but still couldn't see Cha Wenbin's trace.
Isn't it that the water flow has been washed away downstream? Chaozi again carried a wooden raft and walked out, all the way to the entrance of the lake surface, where a huge white object was stuck in the narrow river channel.
His heart tightened, and without saying a word, he knew it was the giant ape from just now. He quickly paddled the wooden raft over, thinking to himself: Brother Wenbin must be okay.
He walked over to take a look, and the white ape's mouth still had blood bubbles hanging from it. It seemed that it was already dead. Unfortunately, its body was too huge, and Chaozi could only use a stick to poke at it for half a day before he could barely move it a bit. Walking around to the back of the giant ape, he saw that its chest was covered in blood, with a wound about two fingers wide at the location of the heart, still gushing out fresh blood. Chaozi measured it with his hand, and it was exactly the width of the Seven Stars Sword!
"This giant ape was killed by Wen Bin's brother!" Chaozi shouted.
The knot in Xiaozhi's heart finally loosened a bit, the giant ape was killed by Zha Wenbin, so it's very likely that Zha Wenbin was still alive when he fell into the water!
Otherwise, this fatal injury would have killed the giant ape on the cliff, and Zhang Wenbin would not have fallen down with it.
After affirming his own thoughts, Chaozi went back and searched every corner again, but still didn't see anyone.
The body of the giant ape was stuck at this exit, and even if Zhang Wenbin drifted down with the current, he should have been blocked here. There are only two possibilities: one is that it was washed out first, and the other is that it sank to the bottom of the lake.
It had been more than two hours since he came down, and the time he and Zhuo Xiong agreed on was getting closer and closer. Looking at the deep river channel they entered before, Chaozi's tears couldn't help but flow out again. He could wait, Zhuo Xiong could also wait, but could Lao Wang and Leng Yiran still wait?
Chaozi exerted himself and kicked the giant ape, turning the boat's head towards the waterfall. When he grabbed the bronze chain again, he looked back at the lake one last time, then dove into the water flow of the waterfall, unaware if he heard the frog's cry behind him: "Ribbit..."
