Chapter 40: The Stone Altar
Li Yun followed the mutant bull through the labyrinthine mountains, and finally arrived at a huge stone chamber.
Here, Li Yun met the Ape King.
I've seen the Ape King once before, but that was far away.
Now observing the Ape King up close, Li Yun only felt a strong sense of oppression coming towards him.
The king of apes is dozens of meters high, like a mobile fortress, covered in black hair, black hair hanging down like vines, and two eyes like lanterns, which is very impressive.
It unconsciously exuded a powerful momentum.
It gives a great sense of oppression.
There is not only the Ape King, but also several powerful mutated creatures.
They sat across from the King of Apes.
When Li Yun came in, Li Yun obviously felt a pair of sharp eyes on him.
Stresses him out.
The master of the gaze is the king of apes.
The Ape King stared at him for two seconds, and then suddenly laughed and said, "Haha, you must be a snake general." ”
The pressure disappeared, Li Yun breathed a sigh of relief, and then walked up to the Ape King and said, "I've seen the Ape King." ”
"No need to be polite, I've wanted to see you for a long time, and today I finally got my wish. ”
The Ape King laughed.
The other mutated creatures also looked at Li Yun, and Li Yun smiled at them, and then sat next to him with the brute bull.
After chatting for a while, Li Yun got to know several mutated creatures around him.
They are all the chief guards of the Ape King, who specialize in guarding this mountain.
Suddenly, I saw the ape king say: "Snake general, you killed the black tiger and got back the thousand-year-old stalactites, these are all good, there is a lack of capable people like you around me, do it well, I won't be able to treat you badly in the future." ”
"Yes. ”
Li Yun responded casually.
"I shouldn't have asked, but I'm still curious, how did you kill the black tiger?"
The Ape King had already known from the mouth of the wild bull last time that Li Yun only had a transcendent first-order, and it didn't understand how Li Yun killed a transcendent second-order black tiger.
After all, the gap between the first order and the second order is huge, no less than the difference between cloud and mud.
The king of apes has not seen anyone who can kill people across large levels.
The other mutant creatures looked at Li Yun, even the brute bull.
To be honest, Manniu was also quite curious in his heart, wanting to know how Li Yun killed the black tiger.
"Speaking of which, I was also lucky, I was lucky enough to kill the black tiger, at the beginning...."
Li Yun made a lot of nonsense, not wanting to expose his hole cards in front of them.
After hearing this, the ape king nodded and said with a smile: "Sometimes luck is also a kind of strength. ”
Li Yun smiled and didn't speak.
Subsequently, the Ape King asked for a banquet to entertain Li Yun.
During this period, Li Yun casually looked at this stone room.
Suddenly, he noticed a painting hanging on the east wall, which showed a small white fox.
The more Li Yun looked at it, the more familiar he felt, and finally determined that the little white fox in the painting was Li Xiaolan.
At the moment, Li Yun remained silent and didn't ask anything.
Soon, the banquet was ready.
Li Yun and the others moved to the stone room where they were eating.
Halfway through the meal, Li Yun made an excuse and left his seat.
Along the way, Li Yun found that this place was really complicated, and the winding route could make people dizzy.
However, Li Yun still walked towards the place where Li Xiaolan said that the Ape King hid the jade pendant.
That's why he left.
It would be great if I could steal the jade pendant now.
Going around and around, after half a ring, Li Yun still didn't see the stone room where the jade pendant was hidden.
After another moment, before he saw it, Li Yun was ready to go back.
But soon he found himself lost.
I went around for a long time just now, and now I don't know where I went.
Li Yun wondered for a while, so he casually chose a path to go on.
Half an hour later.
Li Yun came to a strange stone chamber with a round roof, a bit like a church on earth in his previous life.
In the center of the stone chamber, there is a circular stone altar made of unknown stones, about three meters high, which is a bit like an altar.
The stone altar was dark black, as if it had been drenched in blood, and it looked a little weird.
For some reason, seeing this stone altar, Li Yun had a feeling in his heart, as if it was alive and staring at himself.
Suddenly, Li Yun was a little frightened.
"It's better to take a closer look. ”
Li Yun thought to himself, so he prepared to get closer to see the stone altar.
At this time, suddenly, a mutated creature walked in from outside, and said with a smile: "I've been looking for you for a long time, so you are here, come back with me." ”
Just as it walked in, that strange feeling disappeared.
Li Yun looked at the stone altar again, and he no longer had that feeling, as if the stone altar was a dead thing.
Li Yun turned his head to see that it was a guard chief of the Ape King.
"Why are you here?"
Li Yun said with a smile.
"You haven't come back for a long time, and the Ape King estimates that you are lost, so let me come to you. ”
The chief of the guard said, "However, you can still really walk, and you have actually come here." ”
"Where is this?"
Li Yun asked.
"This place is very old, the Ape King has existed for I don't know how many years before he came here, but there is nothing else here except this stone altar, no one likes to come here. ”
"That's right. ”
Li Yun nodded thoughtfully.
"Alright, let's go back. ”
"Hmm. ”
Li Yun took a few steps with it, then looked back at the altar.
The altar was still lifeless, like a dead thing.
"Maybe it was my delusion. ”
Li Yun shook his head in his heart, then turned his head and walked out of the stone room.
After returning to his seat, the Ape King looked at him and said, "Where have you been, why have you been there for so long?"
"I was lost just now. ”
Li Yun said.
"Haha, you're really lost. ”
The Ape King laughed, and the other mutated creatures laughed as well.
After the banquet.
Everyone dispersed.
Li Yun walked out of the ape king's lair and looked back again.
It's a bit of a pity that I didn't steal the jade pendant this time, but it's not without gain.
At least, Li Yun has memorized the route inside, and next time he comes, he won't be like a headless fly like this time, and he doesn't know where to go.
"Let's go, go back. ”
Next to him, Manniu patted Li Yun.
Li Yun turned around and went down the mountain with the wild bull.
