Chapter 20: The Monkey and the Treehouse
After a night of tossing, Wu Ming was also tired, and he still had some injuries on his body, so he leaned against the tree and fell asleep quickly, and he slept very deeply. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The sun shines on the earth, and the beautiful lawn is still the same as yesterday.
Yesterday the guide was the soldier who came to the edge of the lawn, because he was afraid in his heart, and did not step into the range of the lawn, he looked from a distance and saw Wu Ming lying there motionless.
The soldier was secretly happy in his heart, thinking that Wu Ming must be the same as those who entered here a few years ago, and he had already returned to the west. For the sake of safety, he still observed for a long time, until noon when the scorching sun was headed, he saw that Wu Ming had not moved, and his heart was full of joy and left.
He is happy that Wu Ming should be dead, and he is happy that Wu Ming is dead, and he can collect money.
Getting westerly, Wu Ming stretched his waist, and when he woke up, he felt refreshed, yesterday's fatigue was swept away, he moved his arms, and the soreness was much better, and he thought that it should be the benefit of sleeping in the state of exhaling breath.
After a brief tidying up, Wu Ming was afraid that the soldier who led the way would find out that he was not dead, so he set off in the direction that the old man pointed out last night.
After walking for a while, Wu Ming found that there was no road at all in the direction the old man was pointing to, so he could only find a way out of the road by himself.
Only those who find their own way and walk out of a road will know the pain in it, Wu Ming is holding a knife in his hand, the knife is no longer sharp because of last night's battle, and it will naturally take more effort to open the way with a knife that is not sharp.
But Wu Ming was also injured in his hands last night, and he couldn't exert too much strength, so he moved forward very slowly.
Time passed, and the afterglow of daylight was already hidden under the stars, and night returned.
Wu Ming lit the fire again, illuminating himself with the firelight, and at the same time, he also overflowed the aroma of the cooked meat in the package, and then quickly ate his stomach.
Suddenly, in the bushes not far ahead, there was a rustling sound.
Wu Ming held the knife vigilantly, a black shadow came out of the bushes, and came towards Wu Ming, Wu Ming ran the blade around his body to protect his body, and the black shadow passed by Wu Ming, and directly took the cooked meat behind Wu Ming.
When Wu Ming turned around, he saw that the black shadow was a strange beast like an ape and a monkey, and the strange beast picked up the familiar and jumped and fled.
Wu Ming scolded: "You took Lao Tzu to drink the northwest wind!" I saw him lunge forward, blocking the way of the strange beast.
As soon as the alien beast jumped on the trunk, Wu Ming swung out the trunk with a knife and broke it, the alien beast fell down, and when it landed, the alien beast kicked its hind feet and turned its body to flee backwards, at this time Wu Ming blocked the alien beast again with a somersault.
After tossing like this for half an hour, the alien beast was tired of running, and it made a pleading gesture towards Wu Ming.
Wu Ming didn't know the name of this strange beast, so he could only call it according to the similar animal: "Dead monkey! I think you dare to steal Lao Tzu's meat, Lao Tzu slaughtered you!"
The monkey made a creaking sound, and Wu Ming asked as if he didn't understand, "Do you want to negotiate terms with me?"
The monkey actually nodded and made a pleading gesture again, Wu Ming asked curiously, "What chips do you have to negotiate with me?"
The monkey made another creaking sound and pointed in one direction, and Wu Ming asked, "Do you want me to go to a place with you?"
When the monkey nodded again, Wu Ming grabbed the monkey's tail with a sliding step, and then said with a smile: "You can go, if you have any tricks, Lao Tzu will kill you first." ”
The monkey quickly shook his head, as if to ensure that he would not play tricks.
Wu Ming grabbed the monkey's tail as if holding a dog chain, others were walking dogs under the moon, he was walking monkeys under the moon, and he had to use the knife in his hand to open the way while walking, so there was no comfort at all.
After walking for an hour or so, Wu Ming asked, "Dead monkey, have you arrived?"
The monkey shook his head, Wu Ming glared at the monkey murderously and said, "You'd better not lie to me, or I'll pluck your hair and pick your skin!"
The monkey was so frightened that it screamed again, but this time the cry was a little miserable, and Wu Ming smiled proudly.
One man and one beast continued to move forward, the monkey led the way in front, and he grabbed his tail in the back to follow, such a picture for some reason, Wu Ming thought of the picture of watching the Journey to the West in his previous life, and from that picture he thought of his boyhood watching black and white TV.
There was a sour feeling in his heart, and the hand holding the tail unconsciously strained harder, and the monkey screamed in pain, and turned back with some resentment.
Looking at the monkey's pitiful appearance, Wu Ming laughed dryly: "It's not your fault, I'm sorry." ”
The monkey turned around and continued to walk with tears in his eyes, but in his heart he complained about the smell of the barbecue, which would not have fallen into the hands of this person if it was not too strong.
After walking for about an hour, he finally came to a huge shrub, whose dense foliage covered the sky.
Under the shade of the tree without starlight and moonlight, it seemed even more cloudy in the dark night, Wu Ming stopped, found a branch and made a fire, and slowly walked forward with the branch that lit the fire.
The shrub's torso was large, according to Wu Ming's estimation, it should be the size of a standard basketball court, and under the guidance of the monkey, he found a tree hole as tall as him.
Entering it, Wu Ming found a sitting person, and when he got closer, it turned out to be a white skeleton with a pair of armor, and it seemed that this person had been dead for a long time.
The monkey squeaked, Wu Ming saw that the surroundings were closed and let go of its tail, and the monkey ran to the side as soon as it was free, dug out a small box from a piece of dirt, and then came to Wu Ming with the box.
Wu Ming asked, "This is your condition?"
The monkey nodded and motioned for Wu Ming to open it. Wu Ming cautiously opened the box, a fragrant fragrance came to his nose, and after the lid of the box was fully opened, he saw that there were two small pills in it.
Wu Ming asked, "Can you eat it?" and the monkey nodded again.
Wu Ming smiled slightly: "You can't eat things indiscriminately, what if you are poisoned?"
The monkey squeaked and squeaked, as if explaining something with grievances, although Wu Ming didn't understand, but he probably guessed something, so he said: "Don't worry, I'm also a person who keeps his word, so whether this thing is true or not, I'll let you go!" ”
The monkey did not turn and run away as if it had been pardoned, it pointed to the ground and then to itself with a look of grievance.
Wu Ming asked with some surprise, "Could it be that this is your home?"
The monkey nodded, then snatched the burning branch in Wu Ming's hand, and then quickly lit up a place, and the entire tree hole lit up. Wu Ming was amazed and realized that this was a treehouse.
