Metamorphosis - Many Disasters (21)

It was about a day's journey from the ghost gate, and there was still no one in the middle. I thought that Pangu had arranged this mysterious space too shabby, and there were not even a few households. Senior Brother Sha comforted and said: Second Senior Brother, bear with it any longer, there will definitely be someone in front of you. When Senior Brother Sha said this three times, I couldn't hold back anymore and interrupted him all of a sudden.

As I walked, sweat continued to drip down my forehead. At first, I thought it was raining, but when I touched it, I realized that it had really fallen from my forehead.

Senior Brother Sha asked: Senior Brother and Senior Brother, do you feel that it is getting hotter and hotter? Although I feel hot, I think it's normal, after all, walking will get hot. But Brother Monkey disagreed, Brother Monkey beckoned us to stop, then looked around, and then told us to move on. I said, Brother Monkey, did you find any hostility again? Brother Monkey said that it was not true, Lao Sun just wanted to see how many suns there were.

After advancing two miles further, I also found that it was really getting hotter and hotter, so that I had to take off all the clothes on my body, leaving only my autumn coat and pants. Senior Brother Sha said, Second Senior Brother, it's not good for you to be like this, and the impact is not good. I said what I'm afraid of, anyway, there are no outsiders in these places, so it's okay to show it for the time being.

Eventually, I even wanted to take off my coat and pants, but it was clear that I couldn't do that, so I had to endure it. I shouted to Brother Monkey and Senior Brother Sha: Hey, tell me, could it be that we have arrived at the Flaming Mountain again? Senior Brother Sha said Second Senior Brother, you are really funny, they are two completely different worlds; But to be honest, it would be easier to get to the Flaming Mountain, didn't we get along with those people along the way? At this time, Brother Monkey turned his head and told us not to talk, saying that the hotter the weather, the more we must preserve our own strength and not talk nonsense. So I had no choice but to stop with Senior Brother Sha. Brother Monkey said: Grandma's, what the hell is this place? How hot is it? I said, Brother Monkey, since you know the name of the place here, why do you still ask? Brother Monkey said who knows? Didn't you just say this is a ghost place? Don't you already know? Brother Monkey "cut" and then turned his head.

After walking for about half a day, I said that Brother Monkey is no good, we have to find something to eat quickly, otherwise the old pig will really collapse. It is estimated that Senior Brother Sha is also hungry, because this time he did not ask me to endure it any longer.

Brother Monkey ran to a big rock on the side, put his hand in the shape of a pergola, looked into the distance, and then jumped down and said to us: Idiot! Senior Brother Sha! We've got something to eat! There are people not far in front of you! I said Brother Monkey, don't talk about it, it's better to tell the truth. Brother Monkey said who had something to do with you, don't you know when you walk over?

Turning a corner of the mountain, there were really people in front of me, and the houses were scattered among the mountains, and occasionally there was smoke curling from the roofs of one or two rooms. Brother Monkey said what, Lao Sun didn't lie to you.

I said it's okay now, I finally have something to eat! It doesn't look like it's very wealthy, the houses are old, or they're simpler, and the people are dressed in tatters. What's also strange is that the people here are relatively dark, and if you suddenly let us here, then I would think this is Africa.

Senior Brother Sha said that it is not surprising that the weather here is so hot, and the skin of people in the hot zone is relatively dark and rough.

Brother Monkey stopped a passing "black man" and asked, "Brother, may I ask what kind of place this is you?" Where can I get food? The black man screamed at the sight of us, and then ran away as if he were flying. All three of us burst out laughing. I said that this guy was too timid, and he was still walking well just now, but he was scared like this when he saw us.

But after laughing, Brother Monkey told us that we should still pay attention to our own image problems, otherwise we may not be able to buy a bun.

Just as we were about to move on, there was a sudden shouting behind us. Senior Brother Sha, who was walking at the back, frequently pulled the sleeves of Brother Monkey and shouted anxiously while pulling back: Senior Brother! Second Senior Brother! Look! Big brother! Second Senior Brother! Look! ……

At that time, I was looking around to see which houses were cleaner and tidier, and I thought that if I found them, I would go up and ask them for food. Although the one who can make the house clean and tidy is not necessarily rich, it can at least show that the owner of the house is more fond of tidying up, and the old pig prefers to eat in a clean environment, even if it is to eat steamed buns.

I just like to make a fuss, so I replied while continuing to look: What is the matter? In a hurry? Senior Brother Sha said, Second Senior Brother, look back, it's a big deal!

I heard that something big was wrong, so I decided to look back.

Sure enough, it was a big deal, because a group of angry "blacks" followed.

Brother Monkey also turned around at this time, and Senior Brother Sha asked: What's going on? Brother Monkey said with certainty: It must be that black boy just now who saw that we looked ugly, so he went to tell the others, maybe they came to invite us to dinner.

As we spoke, the group of blacks had come to us and surrounded us. I bowed respectfully to them like Brother Monkey; Brother Monkey said: I don't know what you have to do when you come here? One of the black men circled around us, looking us up and down as he turned. Senior Brother Sha can't say it's good, they must have run out of us as a zoo. Brother Monkey said don't worry, let's wait and see what tricks they play.

The man walked back after circling around us, and then went to an old man and muttered a few words, and then the old man waved his hand and motioned for them to tie us up. I said to Brother Monkey: Brother Monkey, do we want to resist, it doesn't seem to be our character to be caught like this, not to mention that we haven't eaten yet, if we are tied up by them like this, then the plan to eat will be ruined. Brother Monkey said what's the hurry, anyway, they won't leave us here, and we'll figure out a way when we get to their house later.

So the group of them escorted us to a house. During this period, Brother Monkey tried to communicate with them several times, but they just didn't speak, at most they just looked at us with a strange look. I laugh at Brother Monkey's communication skills. It was not long before we came to a spacious house, and the old man ordered the big men to take us in, tie us to a pillar, and then tell them to leave, leaving only a few to guard us.

I said, old man, can you stop being so picky? Three people tied to a pillar, isn't it too crowded? Senior Brother Sha said, Second Senior Brother, you can save some effort, now it is other people's territory, and you have to listen to others.

The old man sat down in a chair, and then began to look at us with a very serious look on his face. Seeing that the old man didn't speak for a long time, the anxious monkey brother couldn't hold back anymore. Brother Monkey said: Hey! Old man! If you have anything to say, just say it! Why are you tying us up? By the way, do you have any food here? Get us some, we're starving!

The old man did not answer Brother Monkey's question directly, but asked rhetorically: Say, what is your relationship with that devil! It's very stern.

The old man's words have confused all three of us, Adversary? There will also be an Adversary here.

The old man looked at us all at us, and although he looked more stunned, he repeated the question just now, asking us what our relationship was with the devil.

Brother Monkey said: Hey! Old man! Lao Sun didn't quite understand what you were talking about, and he didn't know that there was a demon here; Well, you let us go, and then you tell us where the Adversaries are, and we'll help you kill them for free! I also helped and said: That's it! It is! As long as there are chicken legs to eat the old pigs, I will help you kill them, no matter how good they are.

The old man looked at a few black men next to him, probably seeing that we were not lying, so he got up and stood up in front of us and said, "You really have nothing to do with that devil?" So who are you? Where did it come from? Where are you going?

Brother Monkey said: Hey! Old man! We have come from afar into your village, and you have treated us like this, which seems to be unruly; As for those questions, when you loosen our ties, Lao Sun will naturally tell you.

The old man saw that Brother Monkey was sharp, so he simply stood in his original position.

Brother Monkey saw that he didn't mean to let us go, so he said to the old man in a more serious tone: Old man, don't say that my grandson didn't warn you, if you provoke my grandson and keep it, you won't be able to eat and walk around; Even if you lock us up with chains, we can still escape, let alone the straw ropes here. Senior Brother Sha advised Brother Monkey to be quiet and polite, and before Brother Monkey could speak, he said for him: What kind of politeness do you need with this kind of person, it is obvious that they are unkind first, even if they give them some color, it is not too much, not to mention that Brother Monkey just issued a warning.

The old man seemed to be a little unbelieving, and said to Brother Monkey: The old man seems to have nothing to do with the devil when he hears your words, and he wanted to let you go, but since this little brother is disrespectful and says that he wants to teach us a lesson, then the old man wants to see what you are capable of; If you can escape smoothly, it would be best, not only will there be nothing, but the old body will treat you as atonement; If not, then don't blame the old man for being polite, I must teach you a lesson. Brother Monkey said: Old man, is this true? If Lao Sun can escape the shackles of your rope, should he really entertain us with good wine and food? The old man said: There is no lie!

I seemed very happy and said to Brother Monkey: Brother Monkey, now you have a chance to eat chicken legs, you must behave well, our hopes are pinned on you. Brother Monkey glanced at me and didn't speak.

Brother Monkey said to the old man: Old man! You can see clearly, see how my grandson broke free from the rope. In fact, Brother Monkey doesn't have to break free at all, he just needs to transform out, which is simply easy for him. But we were all very hungry just now, and I don't know if Brother Monkey's skills are enough to support it.

Brother Monkey said again, "The old man is optimistic", and then went out from the pillar with a "whoosh" and stood next to the old man. The old man was stunned, stunned for a while, looking at the pillar for a while and at Brother Monkey for a while, it is estimated that he never dreamed that Brother Monkey would suddenly escape in such a short time.

The old man was stunned, and so were the blacks beside him, and they all stood there motionless. As soon as Brother Monkey went out, the rope that tied us naturally became loose, so Senior Brother Sha and I took the opportunity to go out.

I said to the stunned old man: Don't be in a daze, my brother monkey's true skills haven't been used yet, if you really let you see and understand, your eyes will fall out. Just when the old man was still in a daze, Brother Monkey spoke: Hey! I said, old man, think about it, if we are really the same party of the demon you said, with such kung fu, can we still make you toss like this? If you don't want to die, at least I'll give you something to taste, right?

Only then did the old man react, and said sorry again and again, saying that they had eyes and didn't know Mount Tai. Brother Monkey then asked: Who is the demon you are talking about? As if I have a grudge against you? Hate him so much? When the old man saw that Brother Monkey didn't pursue the kidnapping of us again, he was relieved, and then said: Alas, it's a long story! I said, "Old man! Since it's a long story, shouldn't we sit down and talk slowly? Maybe we can help; By the way, does the hospitality you promised us count or not? The old man seemed to suddenly realize and said: Yes! Right! Right! Then he said to the men around him, "Go down quickly, and tell your mothers-in-law, that they should prepare more food for these men of God."

The young blacks took the order. Brother Monkey said that we don't dare to be gods, but we just know a little bit of kung fu. Brother Monkey asked about the "devil" again, and the old man said don't worry, it's not too late to sit down later. I said that if you really have a demon here, then you will meet a savior, you don't know that the three of us used to specialize in subduing demons and eliminating demons.

The old man looked at me with a smile but didn't speak, and I thought he must have thought I was lying. After that, the old man led us out. The old man explained that the house they had just now was equivalent to a police station, which was dedicated to interrogating and extorting confessions; The old man said that his house was still in a small house not far away.

Let's follow the old man in the direction of his house now. At this time, it was even hotter, and I don't know if it was because of the fright just now, even Brother Monkey took off his tiger skin skirt.

I originally walked behind Brother Monkey, but I couldn't stop taking two steps forward and inserted myself in front of Brother Monkey, patted the old man on the shoulder and asked, "Hey, I said, old man, why is this place so hot?" The old man smiled and said that this is related to the devil, because it is more complicated, so it is better to sit at home and talk slowly, now talking too much is the easiest to dehydrate, that is not good.

Seeing that I couldn't find a reason, I had no choice but to retreat behind Brother Monkey.

But the old man went on to say that because of the hot weather, they didn't have much to eat here, and the grain production was not high, so the food would not be very rich when they ate later.

Brother Monkey said: Old man, whatever you say, you can do whatever you want, as long as you can fill your stomach. I'm not as good at talking as Brother Monkey, so I asked the old man: You said you wanted to entertain us before, and now you say that there isn't much to eat, isn't it a bit contradictory? By the way, are there any chicken thighs to eat? Without waiting for the old man to reply, Brother Monkey took over the conversation: Idiot! Don't be rude! It's not that the old pig is rude, it's his own words! I yelled.

Senior Brother Sha said Second Senior Brother, don't worry, since people are willing to beckon us to go to his house for dinner, they will definitely not treat us badly; Eat what you want, listen to the old man say this, then you can be considered lucky. I'm right, since it's so hot here, the grain yield is not high, and it is reasonable if there is no chicken leg to eat. So in the end, I kept silent, and followed Brother Monkey's ass in a proper manner in the direction of the old man's house.

The old man's house is really not big, and there are three brick houses side by side. The old man explained that because of the hot weather here, the floors should not be built too high, otherwise the people who live on it will definitely not be able to stand it, and it is better to live on the ground floor, and you can also absorb some earth qi.

We could already smell the aroma of the food outside before we went in, and it was very breathtaking. The old man looked very modest and said: Don't dislike the humble house later! Brother Monkey said, old man, where are you talking, just have something to eat.

When I entered the house, I found that some of the food had already been put on the table, and I couldn't help but admire the speed with which they cooked. The old man explained that his mother-in-law used to work as a cook, so she was good at it.

It seems that there are only two people in the old man's family, he and his mother-in-law, and the old man said that his son and daughter-in-law live nearby, because they are not used to getting along with them all day, so the two old men moved out alone. When we entered, there were a lot of people around who were watching, and I guess they thought we looked strange and had never seen us before.

Although the old man repeatedly told them to leave, there were still some children who poked their brains in from time to time. I said old man, don't bother to drive them away, just watch it, anyway, we won't lose a lump of meat.

After a while, the old man's son came, and he probably had heard of a few strange creatures eating at his father's house.

The old man beckoned to us when the old man's son was looking at us with a very astonished look, and then introduced us to each other; When the old man said that we had extraordinary martial arts, the old man's son seemed disdainful. I originally wanted to show him my hands, but Senior Brother Sha urged beside me: Second Senior Brother, I can't wait any longer, the chicken legs will be cold if I wait any longer! So I had to go back and continue to eat the chicken legs. In contrast, the chicken leg in front of him is much more important than fighting with him.

That's right, although the old man said that there was nothing good to eat, but on the whole the meal was still very good, and it was rare to have chicken legs to eat. It was even hotter when I was eating, so I took off my autumn clothes and ate bare-chested.

As soon as he took off his autumn clothes, the old man's son was stunned, and his eyes widened. I thought he must be amazed at the muscles in my body. In fact, it's nothing, if the old pig has no meat on it, can it still be called an old pig?

Seeing me undress, Brother Monkey turned his head and asked the old man as if he suddenly remembered something: Hey, old man, you first said that the hot weather here has something to do with the devil you said, so what is going on? The old man thought for a while before saying, "You better eat first, and then tell you that it is not healthy to talk while eating now." Brother Monkey said Old man, you don't matter, we don't have so many rules, it's the same when you say it.

After listening to Brother Monkey's words, the old man seemed to fall into deep thought, sighed, and then spoke eloquently. Originally, it was called Zhangmu Village, and there was a town in front of it called Zhangmu Town—but now it is uninhabited; Zhangmu Village is subordinate to Zhangmu Town. There is also a Zhanglin Town opposite Zhangmu Town, the two towns were originally "brother towns", and they got along very well, and most of the marriages in this area were carried out between the two towns, so it was a kind of nepotism, and the two towns could hardly distinguish between you and me. Later, an incident changed the situation, which not only made Zhangmu Town and Zhanglin Town poor and depressed, but also forced to interrupt the communication between Zhangmu Town and Zhanglin Town.

Brother Monkey asked curiously: What's going on? Who has the skills to isolate two places? The old man sighed and said that it was the guy they called "the devil". That demon was originally a nearby guy who practiced martial arts, and he always liked to fight with people when he had nothing to do, so as to prove his ability and make everyone so bored; But because of his kung fu, he can only dare to be angry but dare not speak. Later, everyone suddenly found that the demon was gone, and at first everyone was glad that after about two months, the demon reappeared. When he comes back, he still likes to find someone to fight; At this time, people found out that the devil's kung fu had reached an extraordinary level, and ordinary people were not his opponents at all, so he either broke his arm or his thigh, or simply died in his hands.

According to the informant, the demon has learned a very evil and vicious martial art out of nowhere, and is now mad. During this time, there were attempts to capture him, but they all failed, and instead they were all taken down by the demon and crippled.

Of course, the Adversary is just what people called him later, and his real name is not this. The old man added.

I listened with relish, and Senior Brother Sha reminded: Second Senior Brother, you eat yours, listen while eating, the food is cold.

Still no one can beat him to this day? Brother Monkey asked.

Not only can't, but the devil has intensified. The old man said. Because everyone was afraid of him, everyone avoided him, so that the demon would have no opponent, so he made a bold decision: to teleport the evil and vicious martial arts to a strange stone, and then put it in the middle of Zhangmu Town and Zhanglin Town, blocking the communication between the two places; If you want to pass through, then you have to test your martial arts with him......

Could it be that this hot weather has something to do with the evil and vicious martial arts that the demon has teleported to that stone? Brother Monkey interrupted the old man's rambling and asked.

The old man nodded and said that this is exactly the case, I don't know what special function that stone has, or if it is the devil's martial arts viciousness, anyway, after the demon put the stone between Zhangmu Town and Zhanglin Town, it immediately became hot, and it was getting hotter and hotter.

Has not a single person passed so far? Brother Monkey was very curious, and I thought that his thoughts were the same as mine: can a stone have so much power?

The old man nodded: Originally, there were some young people who did not believe in evil who wanted to pass, but in the end, they were all scorched, and they all became a black skeleton of bones.

So powerful? Senior Brother Sha asked in surprise when he stopped eating in his hand.

The old man nodded and said, "You can know some clues by looking at our skin, right?" It's almost ten miles away from that stone, and it's already like this, so you can imagine how hot that stone is. The old man said that because Zhangmu Town and Zhanglin Town were "in-laws", and there was only the passage in front of them, and there were cliffs all around, everyone just retreated a little and did not leave, and they were still waiting for the demon to revoke the mana on the stone.

So what happened when you said we were the boss's comrades? Speaking of this old man, he looked embarrassed, and said with a smile: It was a misunderstanding! A misunderstanding!

I said, old man, don't misunderstand and misunderstand again, and quickly tell me what's going on!

The old man continued, the demon was not satisfied with the fact that people were avoiding him, and often caught some people who had lost orders to transmit that evil martial arts to them, and then those people would work for him and become his tools; Not only that, but the appearance of those people will change and become extremely ugly......

So, when you first met us, you thought we were the boss's comrades? I said.

The old man smiled and looked very embarrassed, and said: I can't hide it, it's true, the old body is just for everyone's safety, if it's really troublesome.

Have you ever seen people who have been devastated by evil martial arts before? Brother Monkey asked.

I've seen it! The old man replied in the affirmative, "But not much, that has only happened once so far."

When the old man explained the cause and effect of the incident clearly, we had almost eaten the same meal.

The old man suddenly remembered something and asked, "Are you planning to move forward?" The three of us replied almost in unison: Yes!

The old man said: Although you have some ability, but after all, you are not the opponent of the devil, so you should go back as soon as possible, so as not to lose your life.

Brother Monkey said that you don't know, old man, we have to move forward, and there is naturally no reason to go back. The old man asked, "What are you going to do?" Relatives? Brother Monkey smiled and said that there are no relatives, but we were instructed by a master to tell us to go ahead and look for a medicine.

The old man thought for a moment and said: "It is right to save people's lives, but if you lose the three of you because of one person's life, wouldn't it be cost-effective?" I said, old man, what are you talking about, how do you know that we can't fight that devil? I haven't faced each other yet.

Brother Monkey said: Old man, you don't have to underestimate us, our kung fu is famous, is it possible that you are still afraid of him as a little devil? The old man smiled bitterly and said: It's not that the old body doubts your kung fu, but that the devil is so powerful that everyone can only dare to be angry but dare not speak; And during this period, everyone invited everyone to come back and subdue the devil's immortals and the like, and in the end, they were all defeated by the devil's hands, so it can basically be assumed that the devil is invincible.

Brother Monkey smiled and said: We didn't come before, but now that we are here, we not only have to go to Zhanglin Town, but also kill that devil, so that you don't have to be afraid in the future.

It's best if the old man is like that.

After eating, we rested for a while, stood up and said goodbye to the old man and his son, and then began to follow the route provided to us by the old man.

The old man had planned to find a few able-bodied villagers to help with us. Brother Monkey said no, since the devil is so powerful, ordinary people are obviously helpless, and the villagers can only help him. I said yes, yes, you just need to prepare wine and food later, and wait for us to triumph. Brother Monkey said, idiot, you can't talk nonsense? Believe it or not, Lao Sun let you go alone! Hearing Brother Monkey say this, I lowered my head again and stopped talking.

The further I went, the hotter I felt, and in the end, even the trees on the side of the road were all roasted into dry sticks, and there were no leaves, no green at all, and they looked lifeless. Brother Monkey said that it seems that we have to be more careful, and the devil seems to have some skills.

Out of the village, we found that the surrounding area was really as the old man said, full of cliffs, and there was really only one passage in Zhangmu Town and Zhanglin Town. Senior Brother Sha said that this demon is really hateful, and he separated the flesh and bones that were connected alive. I asked Senior Brother Sha what does this mean? Senior Brother Sha said Second Senior Brother, think about it, since there are many intermarriages between Zhangmu Town and Zhanglin Town, it is conceivable that there must be a separation of flesh and blood and separation of husband and wife between the two places. After listening to Senior Brother Sha's words, I nodded, thinking that he was very reasonable.

After walking some distance further, it was almost impossible to go on, not only was it so hot that even the ground under his feet seemed to be burned hot; When the wind blows, not only does it not feel cool, but it also brings a stream of heat that makes people almost breathless. Senior Brother Sha said: Second Senior Brother, guess what kind of martial arts the demon used, he could actually borrow a stone to emit such great power? I walked cautiously and said, "Who knows?" When you see the Adversary, you must teach him a good lesson! Grandma's! The reason why you should walk carefully is because the stones under your feet are too hot, so it is more comfortable to walk in the mud when walking.

Brother Monkey motioned for us not to move forward for the time being, and then he himself climbed onto a large rock nearby and put his hands in the shape of a pergola and looked into the distance. Walking was better, but once I stopped, I realized that the soles of my feet were hotter, and they were so hot that I could smell the aroma of roast pig. Brother Monkey watched for a while, jumped down and said to us: It seems that the devil lives not far from the front, let's be careful. I said, Brother Monkey, why don't we just ride the clouds and fog over? Why do you want to help them for nothing? Brother Monkey jumped up to me and said: Is this true? Okay, you can go back now, and when the old grandson reports to them later, he will say that you escaped from the battle! All right! All right! The old pig will accompany you!

Brother Monkey is more afraid of the old pig, because it means that the old pig's face will be lost. So in the end, I had to follow Brother Monkey step by step.

Senior Brother Sha said as he walked: Second Senior Brother, we can't give up halfway; Have you forgotten what we told us before we entered the mysterious space? Just like going to the West to learn scriptures, we can't ride the clouds, otherwise it will be invalid; What's more, now that we eat other people's food, we should help them by the way, right? I said okay, okay, the old pig will go with you, anyway, I won't be the old pig alone when the time comes.

Suddenly, a wave of heat hit, and his face suddenly seemed to be bleeding. Of course, there wasn't actually blood, it just felt like that. I said to Brother Monkey: Brother Monkey, if I go any further, I will really become an old pig, let's find some way to see how to cool down. Senior Brother Sha also followed and said: Yes, Senior Brother, this is indeed too hot, it seems that what the old man said is not wrong at all, this can indeed scorch people.

Brother Monkey thought about it, maybe he thought we were right, so he stopped for a while to think of a way.

In that interval, I kept jumping around.

Senior Brother Sha asked: Second Senior Brother, what are you doing? I said that when jumping up like this, the contact time between the feet and the ground will be reduced, and when the contact time is reduced, the heat absorbed will be reduced accordingly, and if the heat is reduced, then we will not be so hot? Senior Brother Sha smiled and said, "Second Senior Brother, you are really interesting, can this still be called a method?" If you think about it, what you are jumping around is a sport, isn't that even hotter? I thought about it right, so in the end I had to stand there motionless like Brother Monkey and the others.

Brother Monkey thought for a while and said that we obviously can't go in like this. I said it was up to you, if you could get in, then many people would have gone in earlier.

Brother Monkey ignored my words and continued: "It's too hot on the ground, let's drill under the ground." Because I haven't found the place where the adversary has placed the stone, and I haven't even seen a shadow, it's already so hot; Therefore, it is necessary to drill from the ground to the place where the power stone is placed to see what is going on.

Senior Brother Sha said: Well, this is indeed a good idea.

As for what it becomes, of course, it's a pangolin, not only is it small, but it also has armor, so you don't have to worry about the heat. After seeing the right direction, we found a hole in the neighborhood and drilled forward.

It's just a pity that it's dark down there, and I wonder if I had expected this situation, then we could bring a flashlight, wouldn't it be very convenient? Senior Brother Sha said Second Senior Brother, don't think about it, how is that possible, how can you bring in a flashlight that is so big? I'm right! So I had to keep crawling again.

Suddenly, Brother Monkey, who was walking in front, stopped, and I had to hit his buttocks, and Senior Brother Sha also didn't have time to brake, and also hit my buttocks, so we rear-ended. I complained and said: Brother Monkey, can you say hello to the big guys before you stop? Don't keep braking suddenly, we can't react.

Brother Monkey said sorry, and then said to us: Do you feel that this place is different from the previous places? I said yes, I drilled farther than before. Brother Monkey said. After that, Senior Brother Sha said: If you want to say that there is a difference, it seems that it is hotter here than those places outside, and it seems that the skin is about to burst. Brother Monkey nodded and said yes, if Lao Sun guessed correctly, the stone is near here. Senior Brother Sha said, let's go up and have a look. Brother Monkey said no. I said Senior Brother Sha, you are stupid, won't you scorch us if you go up? We're going to be underground now. Senior Brother Sha thought about it and said yes, why did I forget.

Brother Monkey finally came up with a brilliant solution, which amazed me and Senior Brother Sha. Brother Monkey's method is like this: first make a hole in the vicinity and go straight to it, and then apply a layer of mud on Brother Monkey's body, thick, and then Brother Monkey will go up to find out the information, so that he will not be scorched by the rolling hot air.

When Brother Monkey said this idea, Senior Brother Sha and I almost clapped our hands; Because then we didn't have hands, we all became feet. After that, we took action, and according to our ability, it would be no problem to make a hole that a pangolin could climb out of.

It's just that in the end, there was a little trouble, that is, if you want to put a layer of mud on Brother Monkey, you need water, and it is so hot here that there is obviously no water. This is a big headache. But this problem was finally solved by Brother Monkey, that is, he pooped himself once, and then it was over.

It's disgusting to say, but it was pretty much the only way to do it at the time. Senior Brother Sha and I originally wanted to help with the poop, but Brother Monkey said that he would not say anything. Come to think of it, other people's poop is quite uncomfortable to put on yourself.

Brother Monkey and I stood far away in the cave, away from the entrance of the cave that stretched out. Brother Monkey went out clumsily, wrapped in dirt.

Not long after climbing out, Brother Monkey shouted: It's so hot! It's so hot! I said Brother Monkey, you should be patient a little, and go back quickly to alleviate the pain. I saw that Brother Monkey paused there for a moment and then disappeared with a "whoosh", leaving only me and Senior Brother Sha looking at each other there.

It didn't take long for Brother Monkey to come back, and I asked Senior Brother Sha in unison what he saw? Brother Monkey said that he had seen the stone, and that it was in a cave where the heat was coming out. I said Brother Monkey, you are really, since you have already seen it, pick it up and throw it under the cliff, why bother returning empty-handed? Brother Monkey said nerd, you are relaxed, you go and try it, the storage has already disappeared before you can walk in.

Brother Monkey said that fortunately he was wrapped in a layer of dirt, otherwise he would have been gone by now. Senior Brother Sha asked: Then what should we do now? Brother Monkey said: It seems that if you want to revoke the stone, you can only find the devil. I say the Adversary? Doesn't the Adversary dwell before the stones? Brother Monkey said he was stupid, so hot can live people? Brother Monkey thought for a while and said that it was better to go back and ask the old man and them first, to see where the demon usually lives, so it seems that only by finding the demon and killing him will the skill on this stone disappear.

Senior Brother Sha said that it makes sense, then without further ado, let's go back and ask them now. So we went back the way we came. After drilling out, we changed back to our original appearance, and then we felt that even in the place where we used to shout heat, the temperature was far worse than the temperature in the cave just now.

Senior Brother Sha said that this is called contrast.

When the old man saw that we went back so quickly, he thought that the devil had chased after him. Brother Monkey said don't worry, old man, we only saw the hot stone, not the demon himself; I thought that I must find the demon and defeat him in order to eliminate the power on that stone. The old man looked very embarrassed, and Brother Monkey said that you can rest assured when you are old, we will definitely be able to win him.

The old man said a little worriedly: I guess you also have some real skills, even if you can't beat him, you can still escape; Won't we suffer in that case? The old man thinks that if you are not 100% sure, don't do it, I believe that there will be a day when he will cool down.

It turns out that the old man doesn't believe us.

So I said to the old man: It's not that we brag, if we can't even settle him, then no one will be able to deal with him. The old man was skeptical, and Brother Monkey continued: "You just need to tell us where the devil lives, and I will come to you with his head later." Brother Monkey said it categorically, which makes people have to believe it. The old man thought for a moment before saying, "Well, the dead horse is a live horse doctor, and it doesn't hurt to tell you."

I said that you must not have a pessimistic attitude, old man, otherwise it will affect our emotions. It turned out that the Adversary lived in a cave near here, near a cliff. Before we left, the old man gave us some ropes, saying that they would be needed when the time came.

According to the old man's instructions, we went all the way, this road was not the same direction as the road we had taken before, on the left hand side of there, we saw a hill in the distance, not big, but more precipitous. Brother Monkey told us to be vigilant, saying that we must not let the devil know about the preemptive strike, so we will be more passive.

As we got closer to the mountain, we felt hotter and hotter, and Brother Monkey said that it seemed that the guy was really crazy, and even the surroundings were infected.

Approaching the mountain, we didn't see the so-called cave. Senior Brother Sha said, could it be that the old man fooled us? Brother Monkey said how is that possible, you look at the steaming around here, isn't that guy living here, is it still the reappearance of the Flaming Mountain? I suddenly remembered that the old man gave us some ropes when he was leaving, what was that for? Senior Brother Sha said yes, the old man said that we have a useful place, so the devil's cave must live on the cliff. Brother Monkey nodded and said that it made sense, and then walked straight in the direction of the cliff, and Senior Brother Sha and I followed quickly, for fear that the terrible demon would suddenly come out of the ground and catch us without Brother Monkey's help.

Of course, I think so, I don't know if Senior Brother Sha thinks the same way.

When he came to the edge of the cliff, Brother Monkey looked down for a while, and then said to us in a very affirmative tone: Just go down here! Why? It seems that Brother Monkey was not ready to answer me, but in the end he answered. Brother Monkey's answer is this: Don't you believe my fiery eyes? To tell the truth, I still believe in Brother Monkey's sharp eyes, so I have to believe Brother Monkey's words, so in the end I said to Brother Monkey: Go! Let's go down! We tied the rope firmly to a big tree, and then we were ready to go down.

Just as he was about to go down, Brother Monkey suddenly remembered something and told him to wait. What happened to Brother Monkey? Brother Monkey said that we can't go on like this, we have to leave someone on it to watch the rope, otherwise the devil will run up and cut off our retreat, then we won't have no way to retreat? I felt that Brother Monkey was very reasonable, so I said to Brother Monkey: Why don't you let Senior Brother Sha stay here? Senior Brother Sha does that? I said why not, as long as you agree. Brother Monkey thought for a while and said that it would be more appropriate for Senior Brother Sha to stay on it, in case the devil comes to fight with you and we don't find out, you must not let him snatch the rope. Senior Brother Sha said that you know, you can go down with confidence. I said, Brother Monkey, don't worry so much, why would the devil let us not deal with it, but came up to deal with Senior Brother Sha?

After that, Brother Monkey and I began to slide down.

The further down I went, the hotter it felt, and the hot air from before rushed up again. I said Brother Monkey, you guessed right, the devil's nest is indeed here. Brother Monkey said that can it still be fake? Lao Sun's fiery eyes, you don't know how powerful it is.

I went down about ten zhang deep, and sure enough, I saw a cave that I entered horizontally.

Brother Monkey motioned for me to stop in mid-air and not move, he went down first to find out. Brother Monkey stopped when he went down to the entrance of the cave, and after looking inside for a while, Brother Monkey beckoned to me and motioned for me to go down. I stood at the door of the cave with Brother Monkey one by one and looked inside, it was very hot at this time, I was going to take off my shirt, but Brother Monkey didn't allow it. Brother Monkey said that if you take it off, it will burn your skin, and the consequences will be more serious, so I have to endure it.

Brother Monkey and I walked cautiously into the cave, observing the movement ahead. After walking for a while, the front suddenly opened up, and a very large space appeared, and it was empty. After a closer look, Brother Monkey said that he saw a person sitting under the oil lamp in the distance, maybe it was the devil.

The cave is relatively dim, and if it weren't for a few oil lamps, it would have been impossible to find the north. When I got closer, I found that it was indeed a person, with a cloak and a cloak, sitting cross-legged on the ground with his hands folded, and it seemed that he was exercising. It seems that this is the Adversary, because every time he takes a breath, there is a heat wave around us, and it is very scorching. I whispered to Brother Monkey: Brother Monkey, this guy is so powerful, should we call Senior Brother Sha to come down and help? Brother Monkey said: What? Are you afraid? I said, who's scared? The old pig is just for the sake of being foolproof.

Just when Brother Monkey was about to say something, he suddenly heard a loud shout: Who !! The sound was so loud that it caused dirt to fall down from it.

Since they have all been discovered by the human community, then we don't need to sneak around anymore, so I said very confidently: It's your grandfather pig who sees you coming!

I said that Brother Monkey is good now, the old pig was still counting on sneaking up on him when he was lucky, who knew that the plan would fail now.

I could only hear the sound of the wind whirring in my ears, followed by a strong heat coming towards me. By the time we had just reacted, the guy was already standing in front of us.

Finally, I saw clearly, the guy had an equally fiery red face, the whole person looked relatively thin, and his long hair almost covered his true face, and he was barefoot.

I looked left and right for a long time, and finally said to that person: You are what people call the "devil"? Is it really that domineering? Please show your face so that we can take a look! Brother Monkey jumped up to me, then pushed me away, staring at him with straight eyes.

The guy finally spoke: Who the hell are you? How dare you spread wild on the territory of my Fire Cloud Evil God?

Fire Cloud Evil God? When I heard this name, I was shocked, a very familiar name.

Brother Monkey asked sharply: You placed the stone on it? The Huoyun Evil God laughed, and did not answer Brother Monkey's question, but said: Even if you let the horse come, the old man will come and stop it. Brother Monkey stepped forward with an arrow to sweep the hall, but was cleverly dodged by the devil; Brother Monkey came to sweep the hall again, but was still avoided by the devil; After that, Brother Monkey opened a third sweeping leg.

I thought that this monkey brother was too inferior, so I knew that when I came out of the hall, it was no wonder that the demon could easily dodge it. Just when Brother Monkey's third sweeping leg had not yet reached the feet of the devil, the devil struck, and it was very fast. The Adversary stretched out his big right hand and swung it at Monkey's head. said that it was too late, and then it was too fast, Brother Monkey simply lay down on the ground, temporarily dodging the attack of the devil, and then Brother Monkey stood up with a carp, flashed behind the devil, and then punched him. Brother Monkey didn't hit the devil this time, but grabbed one of his arms.

Seeing that I was still stunned, Brother Monkey shouted: Idiot! Hurry up and help! Hearing Brother Monkey shout like this, I reacted, and hurriedly ran over and grabbed the other hand of the devil.

Just when I was proud of Brother Monkey, I suddenly felt that the palm part of the demon's body was like being burned, and the pain was unbearable. Brother Monkey yelled that it was not good, and then let go. I didn't react at the time, so the Adversary took the opportunity to reach over his hand and grab my arm and throw it around, and I was thrown out like a punching bag. Brother Monkey shouted at me: Idiot! Hurry up and break some vines at the entrance of the cave! I didn't know what Brother Monkey was using it for, but I couldn't ask why at this time, so I rushed out of the cave without hesitation.

It was hot enough inside, and when I came out, I felt that the air outside was really fresh. Broke almost dozens of vines, and when I went back, Brother Monkey was still fighting with the devil. I shouted at Brother Monkey: Brother Monkey! How to do it? Brother Monkey said come over here, come over here.

After I passed, Brother Monkey picked up a vine in my hand, told me to lead the other end of the vine, and then put it on the devil. I understand, Brother Monkey wants to use vines to tie up the devil, because we can't get close to him at all, it's better to use vines, at least don't worry about getting hurt.

Because he figured it out, his cooperation with Brother Monkey also became tacit, and as a result, several vines were successfully placed on the devil's body, and he also tied a dead knot.

Because the Adversary's hands are tied, he can't punch us. Just as we were cheering for our plan, the Adversary suddenly spat out a string of fire from his mouth, menacing. Fortunately, they were watching him at the time, so they all dodged in time. As a result, the fire shot into the stone wall and shook the earth. Then Brother Monkey and I tied a few more vines to him, but at this time, the devil's feet began to kick us left and right.

Since both of our hands were used to pull vines, there was no third hand to grab his feet. Just when we were in a dilemma, Senior Brother Sha suddenly appeared at the door of the cave.

Seeing this, Brother Monkey hurriedly beckoned him to come up and help, so the devil's feet were also restrained by us. I said, Senior Brother Sha, why did you arrive in such a timely manner this time? Senior Brother Sha said that he felt the ground shake on it, and thought that something had happened to us, so he decided to come down and take a look.

After tying up, Brother Monkey began to torture and extort confessions with left and right hooks, probably because the devil didn't want to die, so he finally begged for mercy. Brother Monkey said that begging for mercy is not good, Lao Sun has to abolish your martial arts, lest you do evil in the future. I said, Brother Monkey, how can you be soft-hearted? Didn't we say we'd kill him? When the adversary heard that he was going to kill him, he hurriedly said, "As long as you don't kill me, I will not only revoke the power on that stone, but also destroy my own martial arts in the future."

Senior Brother Sha said that since this is the case, then let's talk about it and discuss it, and now go up and get the stone done first.

We escorted the demon to the cave containing the stone, only to see the demon take a deep breath, the heat around him gradually dissipated, and Senior Brother Sha ran into the cave to look at the stone only to find that it had cooled down.

Brother Monkey said to the devil: Are you doing it yourself or will Lao Sun help you? The adversary hurriedly said: I'll do it myself! I'll do it myself!

After that, we will let the devil go, and it is estimated that if we take him back to meet the villagers, they will definitely beat him to death. This is what Brother Monkey means. As soon as we got back, the surrounding villagers gathered around and said a lot of thanks.

The old man greeted him and said that they had felt the heat recede just now, and they already knew that we had defeated the demon.

The old man asked, "Where is the adversary?" So Brother Monkey told him the cause and effect of the incident. The old man nodded and said, "Okay, you have to be forgiving and forgiving, good!" Wonderful!

When those villagers gathered around us to say thank you, I said unceremoniously: Thank you, you don't need it, if you have chicken legs at home, you can quickly serve them, and the old pig is very hungry. The old man laughed and said that he must not be able to eat it all, Mr. Pig.

After a night's rest at the old man's house, we decided to continue on our way.
