Chapter 207: Back to the Old Place
At this time, in the cave, there is also a little spirit ape hiding in the corner.
The little spirit ape shrank into a ball, and those big eyes looked at Ren Zhen angrily and vigilantly.
Ren Zhen slowly approached, stared at the face of the little spirit ape, and thought about a question: to kill or not to kill.
It was clear that his not-so-kind gaze had angered the little spirit ape, who suddenly bared his teeth at him aggressively, and his face showed a fierce light. Perhaps because of the little spirit ape's timid personality, this kind of staring lasted less than five seconds, and the little spirit ape did not make any moves to hurt him, and jumped towards another corner.
The little spirit ape was hiding from Ren Zhen.
This also fully illustrates the high intelligence of the species of spirit ape. Although he was full of hostility towards Ren Zhen, he didn't do it because he was afraid of his opponent's skills. If you can't beat it, you can only dodge.
Forget it, spare his life.
Ren Zhen felt compassion at this moment. Even if the little spirit ape grows into a big spirit ape, it will take a long time, and not all big spirit apes will cultivate into demons.
Ren Zhen put away the Nine Tribulation Sword and the Seven Exquisite Qiankun Circle that the Great Spirit Ape put around his neck, and planned to return the same way by relying on the rope.
As he reached the entrance of the cave, he suddenly felt someone push him, and as he fell, it was as if another pair of hands were on his shoulders. Fortunately, there was a rope still tied to his body at that time, otherwise he would have been suddenly pushed off the cliff, and his body would have gained weight, and there was no doubt that he would have fallen into a pulp.
He turned his head and saw that it was a little spirit ape.
The little spirit ape climbed on his back and smiled wickedly at him. As soon as this smile was connected with the angry expression just now, he suddenly felt that something was wrong.
didn't wait for Ren Zhen to react. The little spirit ape had already climbed up the rope. The rope also swayed back and forth with the range of the little spirit ape's climbing movements.
Ren Zhen raised his face and looked at the small black dot that was getting higher and higher. A thought suddenly crossed my mind - the ape had always lived on rocky cliffs, and this creature was very skilled in climbing. Why did this little spirit ape push him just now, and why did he climb on top of him and climb up with the rope?
It is impossible for the little spirit ape to climb the mountain just to climb it, and it is impossible for it to play a prank.
The little spirit ape can only have one purpose, climb up and bite, cut, and tear his rope. In a word. I don't want him to live, a mortal child.
Ren Zhen's eyes shrank, his palm turned upward, and shot out a few Sun God Needles in the direction of the little spirit ape.
"Whew! Swish! Swish! ”
The little spirit ape was stabbed by the sun god needle. screamed in pain, looked down at Ren Zhen, and his eyes burst out with hatred.
To Ren Zhen's surprise, the little spirit ape was obviously injured. But he only hesitated for a moment. It was hard to climb up. He climbed slowly, but he did move upwards.
A few sticky liquids were sprinkled from his body and fell on Ren Zhen's body. It was the blood that flowed from the little spirit ape, one, two, three......
Soon, the ropes were dyed red by him.
Ren Zhen had to shoot the last few remaining Sun God Needles again.
He couldn't let the little spirit ape live anymore. Because this little guy witnessed the process of killing his companions and relatives, he has already murdered him. Just looking at the scene of the little spirit ape being seriously injured, but still trying to climb up like this, you know how much the little spirit ape wants to kill him.
Can't beat it. Hide. If you can dodge, you will play tricks.
Ren Zhen began to regret his kindness. This spirit ape has too much hatred in his heart. In the future, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not cultivate into an evil demon when he grows into a great spirit ape.
"Whew! Swish! Swish! ”
After receiving Ren Zhen's instructions, the silver needle stabbed the important parts of the little spirit ape's body. Sensing a premonition of crisis, the little spirit ape suddenly went crazy and twisted his body in the air, and Ren Zhen, who was dragged under the rope, was thrown around like a grasshopper tied to the rope.
The greater the movement above, the more powerful the amplitude of the throwing below.
From a distance, it is very thrilling. Once the people below have a mistake, they will fall and the gods will not be able to save them.
Suddenly, Ren Zhen found that the little spirit ape was not moving, and looked up......
He was stunned.
The little spirit ape, which was already very weak, was actually gnawing the rope with his teeth, and the little spirit ape was going to die with him!
There are thousands of cliffs down there, and what a dangerous thing it is.
Not daring to continue imagining, Ren Zhen hurriedly climbed up along the rope, and his face turned a little pale with nervousness.
A few seconds later, there was a sudden roar above him, a voice that was poignant and desperate.
With this roar, the little spirit ape's body fell with a bang. When he flew to the bottom of the cliff, the little spirit ape's gaze was firmly locked on Ren Zhen's body.
His eyes were full of anger and sorrow, and Ren Zhen couldn't forget such a look for a long time.
The little spirit ape was finally buried at the bottom of the cliff.
For some reason, Ren Zhen was not happy about the death of the little spirit ape, but was a little sad. A spirit ape can sacrifice himself for the sake of his relatives, and such family affection makes him feel jealous and envious.
Dragging his tired body, when he slowly climbed up, it was already a quarter past four in the afternoon. Now he is tired and hungry.
When he found the package and stuffed it into his mouth, he thought of a sumptuous dinner he had once enjoyed on Lingyun Mountain. That kind grandmother, the craftsmanship is really good.
Unfortunately, the world is impermanent, and things are not people. When he went up the mountain again, the old woman was no longer alive, and she had said that she would come to visit again. It's impossible to come true.
While it was still early, Ren Zhen decided to go to the grandmother's house to have a second look, even if the person was gone, it would be good to bow to the grandmother's grave.
After Ren Zhen made up his mind, he returned the same way and went in the direction of the west.
The small village where the grandmother is located is halfway up the mountain, not far from Ren Zhen's location, and after walking for about ten minutes, you can see white walls and black tiles, and on a few clotheslines strung with iron wires, there are several clothes of different colors floating, and some clothes are even patched.
The village was quiet, and there was no one.
At this time, we should all go to work in the mountains.
Ren Zhen secretly thought while walking out towards the familiar bungalow alone.
Tentatively pushed the door of the courtyard. It's not closed.
The door squeaked open, and Ren Zhen was stunned and stepped in.
It's not the same as you imagined. The yard has no owner. It still looks clean, with no fallen leaves and almost no dust. Even the stone tables and benches in the corners of the courtyard looked very clean, as if they had just been wiped.
It's just that there are no chickens in the chicken coop, no ducks croaking all over the yard, and the thin figure who loves to sit on the door frame and bask in the sun is gone.
Ren Zhen shook his head lightly and only stood in the courtyard for a short while. Then he turned and went out. He was an outsider, and it was somewhat rude to trespass without the consent of his master.
"Hey. You stop! ”
He heard a crunchy sound behind him, and thought it was a hallucination, but he looked back hesitantly and was stunned. blurted out, "Xiaozhen?!" ”
"Ren Zhen? How did you end up here? ”
After Xiaozhen saw Ren Zhen's face clearly. It seemed that he was also surprised, put the rag in his hand aside casually, and approached Ren Zhen.
Xiaozhen was dressed very quietly that day, and her long black hair was draped over her shoulders, making her skin look fairer and fairer. She didn't wear makeup, but this beautiful face did not lose her posture because of this, but had a pure beauty that caught people's hearts.
Ren Zhen couldn't help but take a few more looks, and said with a smile: "Go up the mountain to collect medicine." By the way, why are you here? ”
"Herbs?" Xiaozhen laughed out loud: "I didn't expect you to be such an antique thing at such a young age." It's no wonder you're going to fall in love with my grandma. As for me, I missed my grandmother, so I came home and helped her sweep the yard. Grandma is a clean person so that she will be more comfortable when she comes home. Hey, why are you hurt? Her gaze fell on Ren Zhen's bloody arm.
Ren Zhen said: "Oh, it's okay, I accidentally rubbed it." I brought the medicine, and I'll just wipe it off later. ”
Xiaozhen said: "Look at me, I forgot to let you into the house, you come in and sit, if you go up the mountain now, it will be too late, and it will be dark in a while." You might as well stay with me for one night and go up the mountain the next day." Seeing that Ren Zhen was a little hesitant, Xiaozhen thought that Ren Zhen was taboo about her grandmother, and hurriedly said: "I sleep in my grandmother's room, you can sleep in my room." ”
Ren Zhen had no choice but to nod: "It's the same wherever I sleep, it's okay if I'm a big man." ”
Then, he followed Xiaozhen into the room.
Xiaozhen brought Ren Zhen a glass of water, put it on the table, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect you to come here." ”
Ren Zhen said: "Before I came to Lingyun Mountain, my grandmother kindly took me in, so I have always been grateful. Grandma cooked a good dish, hehe, after eating it now, I still often think about it. ”
Xiaozhen said: "My grandmother's craftsmanship is actually average, but she eats all the food in the mountains, green food, so people in the city are tired of eating those big fish and meat, and then eat the small dishes made by my grandmother, they think it is very delicious." I still miss my grandmother's cooking. ”
Every time I mention grandma, the atmosphere becomes a little more oppressive.
Ren Zhen wanted to change the topic: "By the way, how can you be with Jiu Ye, and that Ge Yunfei and He Xianshi, they are not serious people, I think you are a girl, it is better to be less involved with them." ”
Xiaozhen lowered her head in embarrassment, and said in a low voice: "The ninth master is my benefactor, he has helped me a lot, and even my current work is arranged by him." As for He Xianshi and Ge Yunfei, they asked me to eat on the bamboo row that day, and I saw that it was difficult to refuse them for the sake of the starting point, and they didn't usually interact much. I don't know if they embarrassed you after what happened last time? ”
Last time, Ge Yunfei and He Xianshi made the fishing village restless, if it wasn't for Ren Zhen's help, she and Cai Fan would probably be unlucky. It's just that according to Ge Yunfei's personality, he may not be grateful to Ren Zhen, and Xiaozhen is a little worried that Ge Yunfei will find trouble with Ren Zhen.
Ren Zhen said: "I have rarely been in Nantian recently, and I have also come back from a business trip to Qiongtai, so even if they trouble me, they may not find opportunities." ”
Xiaozhen said: "That's good, that's good." ”
At this time, Ren Zhen inadvertently glanced at the corner of the wall, where there was an old flower pot, and a plant with an unsightly appearance was planted in the flower pot. He squatted down curiously and said happily, "How can you have this in your family?" ”
His voice trembled slightly. (To be continued......)
