At night, the entire Great Thorn Forest is covered with black, which is more secluded than during the day, and at the same time exudes a gloomy atmosphere. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Somewhere in the forest, a small black shadow was shuttling between the tall trees, unusually flexible. From time to time, the moonlight above shines through the layers of dense foliage and shines on this shadow, revealing its true body, the golden-eyed monkey.

The golden-eyed monkey is a demon beast race that is active in the daytime, and it is clear that it is night at this moment, but it is really abnormal to jump left and right so actively.

But it's not to blame. Because there are people chasing it behind, it naturally wants to run.

The golden-eyed monkey is a demon beast race with high intelligence, and it was chased by the person behind it from day to night, and it already knew that the other party had evil intentions, so it couldn't stop, it could only keep running.

As for the person chasing the golden-eyed monkey, it is naturally Zhou Chen. It was not easy for him to chase the golden-eyed monkey for an entire afternoon, but he didn't catch it, and dragged it until the moon was hanging high.

"I observed with the spirit eye technique, this golden-eyed monkey's elemental strength level is only one star, but its physical strength must be two stars, otherwise it should have been exhausted after escaping for so long. However, it's almost time to reach the limit, I have a three-star physique, and I'm a little tired, so I don't believe it's also a three-star!"

Zhou Chen's tree-climbing skills are definitely not as good as the golden-eyed monkey, so he chased on the ground.

When he first spotted the golden-eyed monkey, he decided to catch it, so he chased it out. But not long after he chased out, the golden-eyed monkey disappeared. If it were someone else, it might be no problem, but Zhou Chen's soul strength has reached the spirit level, and he can release his soul power to explore the surroundings.

The current range limit of his soul power is only more than ten meters, but he can still search for a golden-eyed monkey who has just escaped not long ago. So, Zhou Chen quickly found it again and began to approach quietly. Unexpectedly, the golden-eyed monkey was abnormally intelligent, found Zhou Chen, and escaped again.

In this way, one escapes and the other chases, the former is better in flexibility and speed, and the latter is better in the tracking power of soul exploration. Under the stalemate between the two, they have been running far away, but they have not broken this balance.

And Zhou Chen thinks that he has a three-star physique, and if he continues to consume it like this, he will be able to win by endurance sooner or later.

"Has its speed slowed down?"

Zhou Chen's soul power can't be released all the time, most of the time he still relies on his eyesight, staring closely at the golden-eyed monkey moving quickly on the tree in front of him.

At this time, to his delight, the little monkey who had spent an afternoon of his time finally showed signs of exhaustion.

Just as Zhou Chen wanted to rush up and grab it with all his might, he saw that the golden-eyed monkey actually jumped down from the tree.

"What's going on?"

Zhou Chen frowned, increased his speed a little, and followed.

"Is it a lake?"

A small lake appeared in front of it, causing a fault in the road ahead, and the golden-eyed monkey was faced with no trees to climb, and it stopped on the edge of the small lake, and seemed to be at the end of the road.

"It's too late to get around the lake now. ”

Zhou Chen slowed down and approached the golden-eyed monkey step by step.

Twitter!

Seeing Zhou Chen getting closer and closer, the golden-eyed monkey suddenly bared his teeth and grinned, and then jumped into the small lake with a "plop".

"Sneaking down?"

Zhou Chen was not surprised that the golden-eyed monkey jumped into the water, because most monkey monsters were water-based. However, the golden-eyed monkey in front of him did not swim on the surface of the water in order to cross the small lake to reach the opposite side, but dived directly underwater, which is really abnormal.

"According to the information on the Demon Beast Illustrated Book, the golden-eyed monkey's swimming ability may be good, but its diving ability will definitely not be very high. It chose to dive instead of swimming to the opposite shore, and there was definitely something to it about. ”

Zhou Chen did not underestimate the intelligence of the golden-eyed monkey, he had reason to believe that this little thing might be digging a hole for him, waiting for him to be fooled.

Thinking so, he walked to the edge of the small lake, squatted down, and was not in a hurry to do anything, but first observed the surface of the water.

The water is calm, reflecting the moonlight above, making it appear somewhat bright. The night breeze blows from time to time, causing a slight ripple on the surface of the water.

"Could it be that there are some powerful demon beasts down there?"

Zhou Chen felt that there might be something hidden under this water, so after a little consideration, he decided not to go into the water, but to wait quietly to see what other opportunities there were.

Crash!

After a few minutes, the golden-eyed monkey finally couldn't hold it anymore, and emerged from the center of the small lake and began to breathe greedily. It was very smart and knew that Zhou Chen would wait by the lake, so it chose the location of the water coming out of the lake in the middle of the lake.

Twitter!

The golden-eyed monkey breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Zhou Chen, and grinned again. This time Zhou Chen understood, it was laughing at himself.

Wow!

With a splash, the golden-eyed monkey dives into the lake again.

"Little thing, still playing aggressive tricks on me?"

Zhou Chen thought about it for a moment, couldn't think of any good way, and didn't want to risk going into the water, so he shook his head, turned around and left.

He gave up. If he didn't catch the golden-eyed monkey, he would have wasted most of his time, he didn't care.

Zhou Chen strode away from the small lake and walked in the direction he was coming from.

He ran a little far because he was tracking the golden-eyed monkey, and he had to return to the outer area of the forest at this moment, where the strength of the demon beasts infested was low, which was suitable for him. After all, he could only subdue one-star demon beasts.

Crash!

After Zhou Chen walked out for a while, there was a splash behind him, and then, he suddenly sensed something and immediately turned sideways.

Syllable!

A pebble passed by, and then fell to the ground with a soft thud. This was obviously aimed at Zhou Chen's back attack, but he dodged it in time.

Zhou Chen turned around and saw that the golden-eyed monkey had already come out of the small lake and was dancing on the shore. It jumped twice, grabbed a stone from the ground and threw it again.

Zhou Chen easily avoided it, and then didn't look at the golden-eyed monkey again, and left quickly.

......

The next day, the sun was already high, and on the high branch of a certain big tree, Zhou Chen, who had slept all night, opened his eyes.

He stretched, then looked at his watch, where the time showed 8:27.

"Slept for almost 4 hours, which was enough. ”

Taking out a bottle of mineral water from his backpack and another loaf of bread, Zhou Chen began to settle his breakfast.

When he came out this time, he didn't bring much dry food, after all, he couldn't pack too much on his back. Although you can catch some small animals and roast meat like yesterday, you can't have clean water in the forest. Therefore, at most, until tomorrow, Zhou Chen will have to go back once to replenish food and water before he can go back to the forest to catch demon beasts.

Of course, with his physique, it's perfectly fine without eating or drinking for two or three days, but there's no need for that.

"Yesterday, I was lucky to meet the golden-eyed monkey, so let's see if I can find another rare demon beast today. ”

Thinking back to last night, Zhou Chen still has some pity, the golden-eyed monkey is very rare after all, and after missing it once, I don't know when I will see it again next time.

But there was no way, the golden-eyed monkey clearly did everything possible to provoke Zhou Chen and wanted to lure him into the water. With such an obvious trap, he naturally wouldn't be fooled. As for what was under the little lake, he didn't bother to guess.

Dididi!

Suddenly, the watch in Zhou Chen's left hand automatically turned on the vibration function and sounded a prompt.

Open the message interface. ”

Zhou Chen frowned slightly, brought the watch slightly to his mouth, and gave a command.

Drip!

In an instant, the watch completed virtual imaging, and a transparent interface was displayed in front of Zhou Chen's eyes. In the interface, there is an email that has been automatically opened, and there is only one line of words in it: I am injured, who will save me!--Lin Li, the contractor.

"I see. ”

Seeing this email asking for help, Zhou Chen felt relieved. Only in this emergency will the watch turn on the vibration and sound without his command, and directly open the stranger's email.

The Contractor's Watch in his hand is a benefit of the East China Sea Alliance to every Contractor, and it contains many powerful functions. Among them, there is an emergency call function, which can be used by the contractor to send a message to summon other contractors who are nearby in case of danger.

Of course, this function is not something you can use as you want, and if you are not in danger and are just playing around, it is a crime, and even a contractor will be sentenced.

"It seems that it's not far from me, this is the edge of the forest, and there are no powerful demon beasts, so let's go and take a look. ”

Zhou Chen is still willing to save people, but he will wait until he sees the specific situation.

He stuffed the rest of the bread into his mouth in two bites, drank a bottle of mineral water, then threw the bottle away, put on his backpack, and jumped down from the tree.
