CHAPTER XII. The Asylum 249
(PS: Thanks to Guomu for the 500 coin reward, thank you for the 2 monthly passes that love loneliness!) ļ¼
In a strange forest-
Kathu looked at the chimpanzee again, and he felt that he was quite close to the chimpanzee, and he finally understood what it meant to be an "orangutan......
He looked towards the dilapidated thatched hut again, the old man had already left the thatched hut for some distance, but the aura he left behind was still very powerful, so that the whole area was a hazy blur, which would make people feel that their eyes were blurred......
However, Katu, who had practiced qigong, knew very well that this old man was either a master of science and technology, using unknown technology; Either it is a retired martial arts master, and the aura alone is enough to deter the other party and scare the enemy away.

The old man had already walked to the lake, leisurely grabbed the small stool that had been placed aside, and sat down.
But Katu also adjusted his state, and he focused all his attention on his eyes, although he couldn't see through the walls or anything, but it was more than enough to penetrate the aura of those obstacles.
It is precisely because of such a keen eye that Kathu can see through the opponent's moves in advance in every boxing championship, and then defend and counterattack.
But the strange thing is that even so, Katu can only barely see the figure of the old man, vaguely, and he can't even see the style of clothes on his body, but the fishing rod in his hand can be seen clearly.
The old man waved the rod lightly, and the line swung out in the direction of the force, but Kathu saw that there was no hook at the end of the line!
"Isn't this Jiang Taigong fishing - the wisher takes the bait?" Kathu asked the chimpanzee in surprise, he didn't understand why the owner of this thatched hut was so mysterious and unfathomable.
However, he paid attention to the situation on Kathu's side from time to time, and occasionally exuded some warning aura to deter ......
The most important part is that when Kathu crossed the lake on the back of a chimpanzee, he saw that the lake below was full of crocodiles, and because the water was turquoise, although it could not be said to be crystal clear, he could still see the situation in the water in general.
Except for those crocodiles with a slight difference in size, there are basically no other aquatic animals in the lake, and strangely enough, I haven't even seen a single fish, this lake is very weird!
In other words, if the old man fished there, the only thing he could catch would be crocodiles......
When the chimpanzee saw the old man concentrating on fishing, he thought that he would not be punished for bringing a stranger, so he ran excitedly towards the thatched hut, and turned to Kathu and waved his arm.
Kathu strode after him, and even though he didn't know whether the old man was friend or foe, or whether he welcomed the visitors, at least for now he was neutral, and he didn't expel Kathu, or stop the chimpanzee from leading the way.
When Kathu entered the thatched hut, he was stunned......
It was a very simple thatched hut, with almost no furniture in it, except for a thick rope hanging from the crotch, and a small stove that was not dirty, and on top of it was a ceramic bowl with a unique pattern.
There was also a jar of potion sealed in glass next to the stove, and Kathu walked there, crouched down and took a look, and there was actually a small crocodile soaked in it......
He stood up and looked around the humble environment again, thinking to himself that there was not even a basic dining table and bed in this place except for the stove?! How did this old man live?
Kathu glanced at the thatched hut again, and on the wall of one corner there was a long rope hanging from it, on which hung a lot of fur and leather, like a quilt......
He walked up to the fur leathers, the smell was very strong, a little fishy, and a little smelly, but after looking up and down, what made Catu wonder was what kind of animal skin was this? It's a pale pale blue skin with scales on it, and the scales are much larger than normal fish scales......
"What is this?" Kathu asked the chimpanzee, pointing to the scaly skin hanging from it.
The chimpanzee didn't know where to find the peanut, it was clumsily peeling there, it had an anxious expression, if it couldn't eat the peanut, it wouldn't want to deal with others!
Kathu couldn't help but laugh and walked over to the chimpanzee and held out his hand to it......
The chimpanzee thought that Kathu was going to snatch its peanut, so he quickly covered the peanut with both hands, twisted his strong body to the side, moved his protruding lower lip again, and muttered in orangutan language.
"I'm not interested in peanuts, but I can peel them for you, do you need help!?" Kathu said deliberately with an impatient expression, finding that coaxing a chimpanzee was like coaxing a child.
The chimpanzee stared at Kathu suspiciously, for him, eating is the most important thing, what if Kathu took the peanuts away and didn't give them to him?! The chimpanzee hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and nodded, not knowing whether to give the peanuts or not......
Kathu didn't like to say much, so he put his palm out and placed it in front of the chimpanzee......
The chimpanzee, perhaps thinking that his life-saver would not cheat him on peanuts, gave them away reluctantly and put them in the palm of Kathu's hand.
Kathu's fingers are also very flexible, and with a slight pinch of his fingers, the peanut shell cracks, and the peanut falls into his palm, and he hands it to the chimpanzee.
The chimpanzee took the peanut excitedly, quickly stuffed it into his mouth, moved his lower lip, and enjoyed the "deliciousness", just like a child eating candy, and its face was actually overflowing with a happy expression.
Katujin felt that this was an eye-opener......
"Now you can tell me what the scales are, right?" Kathu gestured to the pale blue scaly skin that hung there.
The chimpanzee's happy expression was immediately put away, and it frowned, wandering back and forth in the thatched hut, it seemed that this intelligent and honest primate had not yet learned how to lie, so it was studying how to explain it to Kathu.
But what Kathu can be sure of is that this skin must have come from a species he had never seen before, this mental prison in the air, as it continues to deepen, the mystery is not gradually solved, but is surrounded by layers of fog, and more and more mysteries follow......
The chimpanzee also felt that it had made a lot of mistakes today, and it was already fortunate that the owner did not punish it, and now if it leaks secrets again, maybe the next time the skin hanging on the rope to dry will come from it...... (To be continued.) )
