Chapter Eighty-Five: Unexpected Joy
Xiao Ding and Yue Yurou inadvertently walked to a cliff, which was the cliff where Xiao Ding was chased by the giant bear that night.
Because it was dark that night, Xiao Ding didn't know what was going on under the cliff.
At this time, Xiao Ding looked down the cliff and saw that there was a small valley under the cliff, surrounded by mountains on three sides, and only one side was open to enter the valley. There is a small open field at the bottom of the valley, which is red, green, and green, and seems to be growing wild grasses and wild flowers, but because of the distance, it is not very clear to see.
The trees at the bottom of the valley are relatively sparse, but there are many rocks.
Xiao Ding looked in the direction of Yue Yurou's finger, it turned out that Yue Yurou found that there was a wisp of cooking smoke behind a mountain rock, ethereal and misty, slowly rising, there was no wind at the bottom of the valley, and the cooking smoke rose straight into the air and then drifted away, under the afterglow of the setting sun, there was a sense of tranquility in the paradise.
The valley floor is inhabited? This was Xiao Ding's first thought. Since there is cooking smoke, there will naturally be people there, but I don't know who is there.
"Shall we go down and have a look?" Yue Yurou asked in a low voice.
Xiao Ding didn't want to make trouble, on the premise of not knowing the details of the other party, it was best not to rush over, in case the other party had bad intentions, he and Yue Yurou would be very dangerous.
However, there was always a voice in his heart calling, go down and see, you must go down and see......
"This ......" Xiao Ding hesitated for a moment, looked at the sun that was about to set in the sky, and said, "It's good to go down and take a look......"
Although he said this, he was still hesitating in his heart.
"Then let's go down and have a look, this small valley looks beautiful......" Yue Yurou really wanted to go down and have a look.
The two walked along the edge of the cliff in the direction of Taniguchi.
After walking for about an hour, the two finally circled to the valley. By this time it was dark.
The two looked at each other and walked towards the valley.
As soon as I walked in, less than thirty zhang away, suddenly a loud roar came from the hillside on the right: "Whew-"
Xiao Ding and Yue Yurou were startled at the same time, and when they turned their heads to look, they saw a behemoth jumping down from the hillside, which was actually a giant ape.
This giant ape is a foot tall, with long black and brown hair, thick limbs, and flexible jumping, and runs straight towards Xiao Ding and the others.
Xiao Ding and Yue Yurou were so frightened that they ran away, but the giant ape was in hot pursuit.
Xiao Ding thought while running, could this giant ape be a sperm? How do you grow so tall? Could it be the legendary "King Kong"?
Although Xiao Ding and Yue Yurou ran with all their might, they still couldn't get rid of the giant ape, seeing that the giant ape was getting closer and closer, Xiao Ding hurriedly threw away the two burdens on his shoulders.
ran forward for a distance of less than two miles, and suddenly a figure flashed behind the huge mountain rock next to him, shouting to Xiao Ding and the others: "Brother Xiao Ding, you come with me......
Xiao Ding was startled, and hurriedly looked at it, only to see that the person who came out from behind the big mountain stone turned out to be Mu Yiyi, whom he had just met a few days ago.
"Miss Mu, why are you here?" Little Ding Qi said.
"Brother Ding, don't talk about it yet, come with me." Mu Yiyi said urgently. As she spoke, she had already grabbed Xiao Ding's right arm, and dragged Xiao Ding to run behind the mountain boulder.
Xiao Ding's left hand was still holding Yue Yurou, and the two of them were pulled behind the big mountain stone by Mu Yiyi. There are still a lot of rocks behind the big mountain rocks, and the three of them go around and around to the stone wall of the mountain cliff before stopping.
Xiao Ding turned around to look at the giant ape, only to see that the giant ape had reached the edge of the rock, and its paws were still carrying the two burdens that Xiao Ding had just thrown away.
Seeing that the giant ape was only ten zhang away from the cliff, as long as the giant ape jumped up a few times, he could cross the mountain rock and come to a few people. But the giant ape didn't seem to see Xiao Ding's people, looking around, left and right, and looking around near the mountain rock.
"Huh? Is the giant ape a bad eye? Didn't he see us, why didn't he come? Xiao Ding said strangely.
"It can't see us." Mu Yiyi stared at the giant ape and said.
"Why can't you see it?" Xiao Ding and Yue Yurou were both very curious.
"Because I have set up a formation here, and without my leadership, it can't enter the formation." Mu Yiyi said with a smile.
When Xiao Ding heard this, his eyes immediately widened, and he turned his gaze from the giant ape's side to Mu Yiyi's face, and he said to Mu Yiyi in surprise: "Miss Mu, it turns out that you know the formation!" ”
"That's right, what our Misty Cloud Sect is best at is all kinds of formations!" Mu Yiyi replied.
"You turned out to be a member of the Misty Cloud Sect!" At this time, Yue Yurou interjected. She hadn't seen Mu Yiyi, but she had heard of the Misty Cloud Sect.
"Brother Xiao Ding, you don't want to introduce us to it, I don't know who this fairy girl is......" Mu Yiyi said with disgust at Xiao Ding.
"Ah, look at me, I was chased by the giant ape just now. This girl is not a Dao girl, she is Yue Yurou from Yuqingmen, and Miss Yue wears a Taoist robe for the convenience of travel, just like you wear men's clothes. Xiao Ding introduced.
"Hello, Yue Meinu, my name is Mu Yiyi, and I am a member of the Jingzhou Miyun Sect." Mu Yiyi took the initiative to introduce Yue Yurou, and also took Yue Yurou's little tender hand.
"It's Sister Mu, seeing you wearing men's clothes, I thought you were a man at first, but I didn't dare to look at you more......" Yue Yurou said with a smile.
"Yue Beauty, I may not be as big as you, you are so beautiful!" Mu Yiyi praised.
"How can there be, Sister Mu, if you change into women's clothes, you will definitely be more beautiful than me!" Yue Yurou said.
"Yue Meinu, you are really good at talking, how old are you this year, are you really not as old as me?" Mu Yiyi asked.
The two reported their age and birthday, Mu Yiyi was eighteen years old, Yue Yurou was seventeen years old, and Yue Yurou called Mu Yiyi her sister. The two chatted happily. Xiao Ding was a little bored on the side.
At this time, the giant ape turned around a few times and couldn't find a few people, so he left with Xiao Ding's two big burdens.
Xiao Ding's heart ached secretly, those two burdens were all gold, silver and jewelry, and now he was taken away by the giant ape, and it is estimated that there is no hope of snatching it back.
Alas, what is not one's own is not one's own after all. It took so much effort to bring the two burdens down to Xia Feng, but he still couldn't keep these belongings.
However, it was an unexpected joy to meet Mu Yiyi here.
"Miss Mu, why didn't you go down the mountain after you broke up that day, where did your uncle Mu Hong go?" Xiao Ding asked. Ever since the day they were chased away by the bear, they have not heard from each other.
"My uncle and I got lost after we parted with you that day, and after a few days in the woods, we came here. We also encountered the giant ape, and my uncle was accidentally seriously injured by it. Fortunately, I took advantage of the time when my uncle was fighting with the giant ape, set up a small formation, and then rescued the injured uncle back into the formation, and I escaped. Mu Yiyi recounted.
"How are your uncle's injuries now?" Xiao Ding asked with concern.
"It's much better now, he's resting in the cave." Mu Yiyi replied.
"That's good, it's good that people are okay." Xiao Ding comforted.
"Brother Ding, we happened to meet someone here, you will be happy to see her, I will take you over to meet her in a while, and give you a surprise!" Mu Yiyi said excitedly.
And the windfall? I didn't expect this trip to the valley to come in vain!
