Chapter 395: This Wine Is Poisonous!
In short, after going around for more than an hour, Ye Xian was in a valley in the vast forest sea and went directly into it.
The valley is quiet, and the thorny shrubs are like clusters, arranged in clusters, blocking everyone's way.
Suddenly there was no way out in front of me......
Qi Xiang and the others were stunned, and couldn't help but turn their heads and look at Ye Xian, somewhat confused. Is it in the wrong place, there is no way out, do you want to fly over?
At this time, Ye Xian smiled and waved his hand: "Great Sage ......"
"Squeak!"
The white-haired monkey smiled proudly, and his thin body suddenly jumped, ignoring the dense thorns, and jumped directly over the thorn bushes, and disappeared into the valley in a few ups and downs.
"It's ......"
Others were a little puzzled and puzzled.
At this moment, the white-haired monkey ran back, and on the monkey's tail, there was a thick and long mountain vine wrapped around it. At first glance, everyone suddenly realized and understood a little.
Soon, the monkey came back and put the mountain vine in Ye Xian's hand.
"Guys, I'm going first."
Ye Xian laughed, pulled the mountain vine for a while, and the whole person was like a swing, directly crossing the dense thorns, and slowly disappeared into the depths of the valley.
Seeing this, the white-haired monkey also followed deftly and deftly.
"I see."
Tian Shi shook his head and smiled: "And this trick, it's really cautious." ”
"yes."
An Zhi agreed: "The mountains and rivers are poor and there is no way out, and the willows and flowers are bright and another village. There are benefits to being cautious. lest outsiders break into here and find that there is a treasure in the valley, and take it without asking. ”
"...... right"
In the middle of speaking, the white-haired monkey rolled up the vine and came out again.
"Brother Qi, you first."
Tian Shi and An Zhi pushed and let Qi Xiang go in first.
Qi Xiang was not polite, and directly pulled the mountain vine. Gently swing. He felt like he was flying, a few tens of meters at a time, and then skimmed through the dense thickets and reached the interior of the valley.
In the middle of the valley, between a flat clearing, Ye Xian waved and greeted each other with a smile.
"Whoosh!"
Qi Xiang saw the gap and jumped down gently: "There is labor!" ”
"Great Sage, go again."
Ye Xian handed the mountain vine to the white-haired monkey, and then said with a smile: "Qi Daoyou." Look at it, it's my wine cellar. ”
"Huh?"
Qi Xiang looked around the valley and saw thorny bushes on one side of the valley and towering peaks on the other three sides. One of the peaks is a steep cliff.
At this time, Ye Xian pointed to the direction, which was a steep cliff.
Qi Xiang squinted, his gaze turned for a while, and he found some cracks between the cliffs. Merely. Due to the distance and the angle of his sight, he wasn't sure how big the rifts were.
But come on. Among those chasms, there may be spacious caverns.
While Qi Xiang was watching, An Zhi and Tian Shi also dragged the mountain vines one after another.
The crowd gathered. looked at Ye Xian again.
Because the valley is surrounded by high mountains on three sides, there is no way out.
Ye Xian suddenly asked, "Do you know what kind of place this is?" ”
"I don't understand ......" Tian Shi shrugged his shoulders and said, "If you have something to say, just say it." Don't sell off. ”
"Here it is...... Monkey Mountain. ”
Ye Xian sighed lightly: "Many years ago, well, not many years, it should have been five or six years ago, in this place, there lived a huge group of monkeys. Hundreds of monkeys live in this place. ”
"Huh?"
Qi Xiang and the others were stunned, looked around, and saw only a white-haired monkey in the wide valley, and there was no so-called huge group of monkeys at all.
"And then?" Tian Shi asked, "Those monkeys, migrated?" ”
"No ......"
Ye Xian shook his head, and then said softly: "It's all dead." ”
"Huh?"
The unexpected answer naturally surprised Qi Xiang and the others.
"Why?"
An Zhi frowned: "What is the reason?" ”
"Yes......"
Ye Xian wanted to say, and suddenly, a long mountain vine fell down between the cliffs.
Everyone looked and found that they didn't know when, the white-haired monkey had climbed to the top of the cliff, and in a crack, threw down a mountain vine.
"Squeak!"
The white-haired monkeys danced and seemed to call them up.
"Go up and talk about it."
Ye Xian gestured: "There is a cave above, and I brew monkey wine on it." ”
"Oh!"
The others must have no opinion, and they pulled the mountain vines in turn and climbed briskly to the cliff wall. When they got closer, they could see clearly, and sure enough, in the crack, there was a very spacious cave.
The cave hall of the cliff cave is about 30 square meters, and on both sides of the cave hall, there are long tunnels leading to different caves.
Judging from the traces of the cave walls, these cave halls and chambers should be naturally formed. There are some small traces of axe chisels in it, which look very fresh and feel like Ye Xian's handwriting.
As soon as he entered the cave hall, Qi Xiang smelled a strong aroma of wine, which wafted out of the cave inside the tunnel.
An Zhi moved his nose, sniffed around, and then smiled: "Sure enough, there is wine." ”
"The wine is in there."
Ye Xian beckoned: "Everyone come with me......"
The tunnel is dark and seven or eight meters long. Everyone came to the end, turned a corner, and suddenly opened up in front of them, and a cave room of about ten square meters appeared.
"Huh!"
When they looked at it, they saw that there was a large pool in the middle of the cave. In other words, most of the area of the cave was dug into a large pool, and in the pool, there was a glowing liquid.
"Poof!"
Suddenly, Ye Xian lit the torch next to the cave and lit up the entire cave.
At this time, everyone also saw more clearly that the liquid should be wine. A strong smell of alcohol permeated the chambers.
The wine was so strong that it was even a little choking. As the saying goes, it backfires, and the smell that was originally very mellow and fragrant suddenly becomes pungent due to the strong taste.
"Ahem......"
Tian Shi covered his nose and was a little suspicious: "This...... Is it really monkey wine? ”
"It's all said, it's a semi-finished product...... Semi-finished products within semi-finished products. Ye Xian was accustomed to it, and said with a smile: "It still needs to go through a few processes, and then add spirit fungi." It's a finished product. ”
"As for the current state, you can't drink it casually, and if you drink it, ......"
Ye Xian smiled, and his expression was a little gloomy: "If you drink it, you will die." ”
"Huh?"
Qi Xiang and the others were stunned for a moment, and subconsciously took a step back.
"Dead people?"
An Zhi frowned and said in surprise: "Yezi, don't be joking. This wine is obviously very fragrant and feels very mellow. How could it be possible to drink a dead man? ”
"Don't believe you." Ye Xian shook his head lightly and sighed: "The monkey group I just talked about is almost extinct because of drinking these wines......
"What?"
Qi Xiang and the others were shocked and moved.
"This wine is poisonous!"
Ye Xian's expression was solemn, and he talked eloquently: "Back then, the huge group of monkeys was needed for winter. There were many wild fruits stored in the cave. These inexhaustible wild fruits, after mold precipitation, become the most primitive wine. ”
"It stands to reason that this fruit wine. It's definitely not poisonous. However, I don't know for some reason, maybe there is a little monkey naughty, unintentionally. In this fruit wine liquid, something highly toxic is added. ”
Ye Xian sighed lightly: "This toxin is completely integrated with the wine fungus. Penetrates the liquor. However, the monkeys were unaware of it and came to drink every day. That's it, they all suffered. ”
"How do you know this?" Qi Xiang asked, a little skeptical. After all, Ye Xian is not a monkey, how can he understand it so clearly.
"My Speculative ......"
Ye Xian said slowly: "I remember, this should have happened six years ago......"
"At that time, I hadn't settled in the mountain villa yet, I was just cultivating nearby. Early in the morning, I used to meditate in the mountains, and then I noticed a little monkey stumbling towards me. ”
"That little monkey is the Great Sage."
Ye Xian sighed and fell into his memories: "At that time, the Great Sage was very pitiful, his whole body was scarred, and it was all scratched by thorns. In addition, its hair has also fallen out, and there are even some terrible sores on its body. ”
"In short, it looks so miserable that people can't bear to look at it directly."
Ye Xian shook his head, as if he wanted to get rid of the shadow at that time, and then continued: "Seeing its situation, I moved a little compassion, took it back, picked some herbs for detoxification and healing, boiled it into juice and fed it, and then applied the wound ......"
"At that time, its condition was too serious, and I just had the idea of being a dead horse as a live horse doctor, and I didn't expect it to live. Unexpectedly, a miracle happened......"
Ye Xian was surprised: "Why don't you know what's going on, it actually survived the ghost gate and recovered little by little." Within a few days, the hair on his body grew little by little. However, it is white hair. ”
Variation......
Qi Xiang and the others immediately thought of this word in their minds. However, they didn't mean to disturb Ye Xian, but kept quiet and continued to listen to him.
"When it's healed, it'll bring me here." Ye Xian covered his eyes and grieved: "Do you know what scene I saw back then...... Corpses are everywhere, corpses are everywhere. ”
Everyone was silent, and naturally knew what Ye Xian meant.
"The entire group of monkeys, more than a hundred monkeys, only the Great Sage is the only one left, and the rest are ...... Alas! ”
Ye Xian sighed: "I will never forget the scene of the great sage's sad wailing...... Every drop is blood and tears! ”
"After that, it took me a day to bury them all."
After a long time, Ye Xian continued: "Then I found this cave and the wine in the cave on the cliff. When you see a pool full of wine, it feels like the legendary monkey wine. ”
"To be honest, I was still a little excited to taste ......"
Ye Xian was a little lucky: "Fortunately, the Great Sage stopped me in time and didn't let me drink." I was still alert, and I knew that something was wrong when I thought about it, so I took the wine back for a test, only to find that the wine contained a very strong toxin. At that time, it dawned on me to understand the reason for the mass death of the monkey herd. ”
"What about the Great Sage, why did it survive?" Qi Xiang suddenly asked, knowing that this was the key. (To be continued......)
