Chapter 35: The Golden Snub-nosed Monkeys
The closer he got to the mountain waterfall, the more difficult the road became, and the steep terrain and slippery road surface caused Yan Jie a lot of trouble, so he had to move slowly and cautiously.
On the other hand, Xiaopi was like a fish in water in such an environment, like walking on the ground, only to see this little monkey constantly moving and flying between the trees, always a few steps ahead of Yan Jie, and then stopped, sneering at Yan Jie, as if to say, "Why are you so useless, this little road is so slow." ”
Running all the way, Yan Jie, who was already out of breath, always had to concentrate on identifying the situation of the rocks under his feet, but the monkey he picked up always put on a "you can't" expression in front of him, and Yan Jie, who was angry, turned black in front of his eyes several times.
"Dead monkey! You have been caught by Lao Tzu for the rest of your life, wait until you go down the mountain, and see how Lao Tzu cleans you up." Yan Jie shouted angrily to Xiaopi.
But apparently Xiaopi didn't take Yan Jie's cruel words to heart, landed on a low tree with a few jumps, turned around, and patted his monkey butt in front of Yan Jie, and then turned his head and stuck out his tongue at Yan Jie.
"This monkey is really a refinement, calm and calm, I am a dignified junior martial artist, a human being in two lives, how can I not get along with a monkey. Yan Jie kept persuading himself not to care, but he was getting more and more forceful under his feet, eager to catch up with Xiaopi now and rub the monkey's sharpness.
In this way, a person and a monkey, one after the other, shuttled between the ancient trees in the mountain, and the place where they passed was startled by a group of birds, which was also a rare liveliness in this medicine valley for tens of thousands of years.
Yan Jie and Xiaopi meander up the mountainside, getting closer and closer to the cliff where the waterfall is located, and after passing through a bush, Yan Jie comes to a fork in the mountain, the road on the left side continues to go up, while the one on the right side goes straight down, I don't know where it leads.
The cliff where the waterfall is located is obviously located at a high place, so Yan Jie did not hesitate and chose the road on the left, but just as Yan Jie took a step to continue to set off to a high place, Xiaopi grabbed Yan Jie's leg.
"Babble, babble" I saw Xiaopi pointing to the road down on the right side, and kept talking about something.
"You want me to go this way? Why, we're going to the waterfall now, we should go up. Yan Jie squatted down and looked in the direction of Xiao Pi's finger, but he didn't find anything special about the downward extension of the trail on the right, which was more incredible than where it leads, perhaps such a path can be formed naturally under nature.
"Babble, babble. Seeing that Yan Jie didn't plan to go to the path on the right with him, Xiaopi was also in a hurry, grabbing Yan Jie's hair and dragging Yan Jie's arm.
"I really can't go, Xiaopi, you have to think it's fun to go by yourself, I still have to go before the sun goes down to pick the monkey spirit ginseng back and then go to meet Long Lao, I don't dare to stay alone at night in this medicine valley, it's too dangerous." Yan Jie looked at Xiaopi in embarrassment, and still made a judgment calmly, this medicine valley is full of crises, and he has been attacked by beasts many times in broad daylight, once he enters the night, and in this deep mountain, his strength is not the food of the beasts.
Seeing that he couldn't convince Yan Jie, Xiao Pi turned his head and walked down the path on the right hand side in a puff of anger, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"Xiaopi, Xiaopi, hey, forget it, playful monkey, I'll go pick monkey ginseng first, and then come back to it when I go down the mountain." After shouting a few times and seeing no response, Yan Jie didn't delay any longer, thinking that nothing would happen to Xiaopi in the mountains, as long as he stopped being greedy and pressed by stones.
Yan Jie, who was separated from Xiaopi, also sped up, and finally came to the cliff where the waterfall was located before the sun set, and the turbulent streams flowing in the mountains all converged here, flying down from the cliff, shining like the Milky Way, and finally carrying the roar to continuously impact the riverbed at the foot of the mountain, such a grand natural wonder also made Yan Jie amazed.
"The water flow of the waterfall is too turbulent, I can't go down directly, otherwise even the body of a junior martial artist won't be able to withstand such a strong impact. Yan Jie was very aware of the power of nature, and did not dare to act rashly, but carefully investigated on the bank of the river, trying to find out the specific location of the monkey ginseng, but the turbulent water and the getting late in the sky did not make Yan Jie very rewarding for a while.
"Babbling, babbling" Just as Yan Jie was trying his best to search for the traces of monkey spirit ginseng by the cliff, a familiar cry came, and before Yan Jie could react, he saw that Xiaopi had already climbed onto his shoulder.
"You're back so soon?Have you had enough?What is this?" Yan Jie found that Xiao Pi was holding a golden peach in his hand at this time, the peach was very large, Xiao Pi had to hold it with two hands to barely hold it, and the golden aura continued to emanate from this peach, which was a good thing at first glance.
"Babble, babble. Xiaopi looked at Yan Jie nervously, and the little hand holding the peach tightened, as if he was worried that Yan Jie had snatched its peach.
"No one is competing with you for peaches, where did you pick them from, they look very different from ordinary peaches. Yan Jie pouted at Xiaopi, indicating that he was not interested in its harvest.
Just as Yan Jie and Xiaopi were burying each other on the shore, suddenly, a violent commotion came from the depths of the woods below the mountain, followed by a chaotic roar and the sound of countless branches being crushed.
In the blink of an eye, a golden snub-nosed monkey jumped out of the woods and landed in front of Yan Jie, and then the second, third, and fourth, more and more golden snub-nosed monkeys gathered in front of Yan Jie's eyes, obviously the movement just now was given by these golden snub-nosed monkeys.
Yan Jie looked at the dense group of golden monkeys in front of him, his scalp was numb, he had roughly assessed the difficulties encountered in this trip before going up the mountain, and finally decided that as long as he didn't provoke the overlord of this mountain, the golden monkey group, then no matter what beast he was, he still had the strength to fight.
Unfortunately, the worst happened at this time, the golden monkey group in front of him was obviously very angry, all babbling and roaring at themselves, one of the huge white-gold monkeys was particularly eye-catching, it should be the leader of this group of monkeys, the platinum monkey king.
"Everyone, Brother Monkey, I don't know where I offended you, I'm just here to pick up a medicine, as for such a big battle?" Yan Jie arched his hand to the platinum monkey king, and said with a smile, at this time, the sweat had unconsciously flowed down from Yan Jie's head, everyone knew that a golden snub-nosed monkey was not terrible, but a group of golden snub-nosed monkeys cooperated, and even intermediate martial artists had to avoid its edge.
The platinum monkey king looked at Yan Jie, waved his hand, and the monkeys immediately became quiet, and then the monkey king pointed to Yan Jie's back, babbling and saying a few words, and then angrily punched his chest, expressing strong dissatisfaction.
Yan Jie looked back and saw that Xiaopi was holding the golden peach tightly at this time, looking at Yan Jie pitifully, as if to say, "No one is allowed to snatch my peach." ”
"I'll go, little ancestor, dare to love that your peach was stolen, hurry up and return it to others, otherwise we will both stuff their teeth between them." Only then did Yan Jie realize that it might be Xiaopi who stole the golden peach belonging to the monkey group, so he was chased and killed.
"Babble, Hiccup. It's a pity that Xiaopi doesn't agree with Yan Jie's opinion at all, how can there be any reason why the things that have already arrived will go, so he opened his mouth directly, bit off half of the golden peach, swallowed it quickly, and quickly took another bite, and the golden peach was swallowed into his stomach by Xiaopi in two bites.
When the Platinum Monkey King saw this scene, he immediately jumped like thunder, and with another wave of his hand, the monkeys were restless, and they pounced directly on Yan Jie and Xiaopi.
"My ancestor, why did you eat it, it's over, and lick your ghost's hand, run. Seeing that Xiaopi solved the golden peach with three downs and five divisions, Yan Jie knew that there was only one way to escape, so he grabbed Xiaopi and went directly.
Behind him were countless golden snub-nosed monkeys under the command of the Platinum Monkey King, rushing towards one person and one monkey.
