The body of the stream is open and the water is flowing rapidly. The old man and the young woman were very water-oriented, and they still had bamboo baskets on their heads, half-kicking and half-swimming in the turbulent current. As soon as they arrived in Xixin, twenty or thirty officers and soldiers with swords and guns were chased out in the town, shouting to catch spies. When they arrived at the bank of the stream, they jumped into the stream one by one to catch the old and the young. The old man and the young woman were so frightened that they threw away the bamboo basket above their heads, and with their hands and feet strong, they swam like arrows to the opposite shore, jumped ashore and ran away. At that time, I didn't understand what was going on, hiding in the distance, and seeing how it turned out.

Seeing that an old man and a young man had already fled ashore, the 20 or 30 officers and men chasing in the creek were still reluctant, and more than a dozen officers and men had already tracked them ashore, divided into three sides, and flew towards the old and the young. An old man and a young man fled for a while, and were about to flee into a dense pine forest, and the woman behind the old man somehow lost her mind and fell to the ground with a scream. As soon as the old man turned around, he couldn't turn around in a panic to help the woman, and after a slight pause, several officers and soldiers had rushed into the pine forest and blocked the way. The people chasing behind also arrived together, swordsmanship and guns, surrounding the old and the young in the core.

An old man and a young man were in danger of dying when they suddenly heard a moving roar in the depths of the pine forest. At the beginning of the roar, two big monsters with golden hairs and bodies like giant spirits burst out of the pine forest, dancing with four long arms and rushing towards a group of officers and soldiers. When the officers and soldiers saw these two monsters, they were so frightened that they shouted, and they fled, and their guns and knives were all over the place. The old man and the young woman were so frightened that they fell to the ground, and their legs were as weak as mud. It's no wonder that these two big monsters, looking at the back of the ordinary officers and soldiers, grinning with huge mouths, did not chase after them, but picked up the old and the young who fell to the ground, sandwiched them under the ribs one by one, turned around and left.

I saw these two monsters behaving strangely, as if they were intent on saving the old and the young. I suddenly remembered that the Blue Lion City told Lady Rakshasa about the apes raised by Lady Rakshasa like this, how could there be such monsters here? I wanted to explore him to see where these two monsters had rescued the old and the young. At that time, the ordinary officers and soldiers had escaped from the stream without their lives, so I aimed at the shadows of the two monsters to follow. I'm ashamed to say that those two monsters are too fast. As soon as he jumped up, he went out more than ten feet, jumping and jumping, just like flying. No matter how good the light work is, it is beyond the reach of the dust. Because human beings never have such strength, monsters don't have to choose the way to go, and all they go is barren rocks and strange ravines. I chased it for a few distances, and then I lost sight of the monster, and even lost my own path.

I was pausing to find my way when I heard a delicate shout behind me: 'The old-timers are very happy. I was taken aback, and when I looked back at a strangely handsome woman, dressed in an elegant blue dress, with her bare hands, slim, I could not have thought that she had come behind me. This light-hand exercise is really out of reach. She didn't wait for me to open her mouth, she immediately bowed down, reported her feet, and said to me: "The younger generation has become a friend with the sister of the Luo family, Gongzi Li. In Blue Lion City, I also secretly met my predecessor Dao Fan, so I met him at first sight. I don't want to meet here, but I'm really happy. ’

When she said this, I immediately understood that it was Lady Rakshasa. I said, 'The girl's martial arts and talents, the little daughter-in-law has talked about it again and again, and I don't want to be happy here.' The ape saved the two just now, and it must have been the girl's order. Lady Rakshasa nodded and smiled, "This is not a place for conversation, and the younger generation has the courage to invite the older ones to go to a place not far away so that they can seek advice." I smiled and said, 'I am old and alone, I have no concern, and I want to talk to the girl, so we will go together.' ’

So Lady Rakshasa led me to the valley where you were resting, yesterday afternoon. At that time, the thatched tent on the edge of the lake in the valley had not yet been erected, and Lady Rakshasa and I arrived at the edge of the pool, and the apes had already put the old man and the young woman on the grass by the pool. But this old and young, thinking that they had fallen into the hands of monsters, frightened their souls out of their bodies, and the father and daughter hugged each other tightly and shrunk into a heap. Next to him stood a giant spirit god-like ape, and there were not only two, but two more, carrying a bamboo bag on their shoulders, also standing far away.

As soon as Lady Rakshasa arrived, she shouted a few words to the apes, about the language of apes, and the four apes retreated far into the pine forest and hid.

When the apes retreated, the two of us comforted the old man and the young woman, and asked them where their homes were? How could they go to Nanjian Town to be chased by the officials and soldiers and regarded as spies? The people of the Blackstone Empire were so superstitious that they saw with their own eyes that the Rakshasa Lady called out monsters, like cattle and sheep, and treated them as living bodhisattvas. Lady Rakshasa stopped them from praying and offered kind words of condolences.

The old man spoke the language of the Purple Cloud Empire very well, so he said that their village was not far from here, because the terrain was remote and dangerous, and outsiders could not easily reach it, and the villagers did not want to interact with outsiders. Only the old man was a village chief and understood the language of the Purple Cloud Empire. All the things that need to be traded with the outside of the village will be exchanged by the village chief with a deputy to Nanjian Town. Because he doesn't often go to the town to trade, I don't know that the merchants in the town have stopped the market recently, and the officials and soldiers have been stationed, and the old man still holds two baskets of objects woven in the village, and also takes his eldest daughter, trekking through mountains and rivers, and rashly enters Nanjian Town. Unexpectedly, when the ordinary officers and soldiers saw that his daughter was pretty and sweet, they thought that an old man and a young man could be bullied, so they swarmed up with their blades. The old man saw that the situation was not right, and led his daughter to escape from the village.

After he had finished speaking, he knelt down and begged us to go to his village, and kept saying, 'If the Bodhisattva and the old gods come to the village, it will bless the whole village, and it will be a blessing for all generations.' Lady Rakshasa thought for a moment and said to me, 'There is a place to go, and we are using it.'

The old-timers probably didn't know that Li Gongzi and Ling Yuan had agreed with the juniors to meet in Nanjian and would arrive soon. Now that the merchants of Nanjian have fled and there are no shops in the city, we can't survive, so it is better to lead them to the village as well, to a wonderful hiding place. This matter has to be arranged by the juniors, and now the old-timers are invited to accompany the old and the young here temporarily, and the juniors will come when they go. Then he let out a long whistle. The four apes immediately leaped out of the forest, Lady Rakshasa sat on the bamboo bag, the two apes carried the bamboo bag, and the two apes followed behind the sedan chair, flying towards the road from the beginning, and walked out of the distance in the blink of an eye.

I was secretly amazed when I saw this Rakshasa Lady doing so, and I learned from her mouth that you were going to be here. Although she didn't explain why you came, I can guess that you came. In less than a meal, two apes carried Lady Rakshasa back, and the two apes behind them also carried many bamboo poles and pine branches. According to her, you have made a secret mark with her that you will be brought into the valley if you leave a secret mark on the path you must pass. She also ordered the four apes to build a thatched hut and gather rocks to pile up a chimney. The apes were ordered to be cautious, and immediately worked separately, using both hands and feet, and were as flexible as humans. The old and the young, looking at it in amazement, regarded Mrs. Rakshasa as a living bodhisattva.

I asked Lady Rakshasa, 'What is the use of this thatched hut in the valley since there is such a place as a mountain village?' She said that the thatched hut is the accommodation of the four apes, so that you will not be brought to the village to frighten people to death, and the chimney mound is also used to guide you here. When everything stopped, she gave instructions to the four-headed ape for a while, and then ordered the old man, father and daughter, to lead the way to this small peachy mountain village. Mrs. Rakshasa saw that this mountain village was secluded and clean, and the villagers were gentle and kind, so she was very happy to be temporarily supported by them in the old man's house of the village chief. ”
