Chapter 1 The Monkey Who Eats Grass

Next Chapter

Night.

At the edge of the boundless forest, a group of huge black shadows crawled on the ground, making heavy gasps from time to time.

In the moonlight, one of the smaller black shadows suddenly opened their eyes and looked up curiously at the deep night sky, where a huge object with a faint light quietly appeared, like a floating giant city, hazy and real and illusory.

The giant city stood silently in the night sky without making a sound, and only a moment later disappeared into the night sky and disappeared completely.

The smaller shadow blinked its eyes, as if in doubt, and habitually stretched out its tongue and curled it over a clump of grass beside its head, chewing it carefully, looking up at the night sky for a long time, where only a round of brightness hung high in the sky.

With a slight shadow, Jiaojie's dark eyes gradually exuded an inexplicable emotion, with curiosity, as if thinking......

……

It was an ordinary afternoon.

The warm sunlight, through the gaps between the leaves of the unusually tall trees, and the stars scattered among the thorns, looked so peaceful and peaceful.

However, this peace is being broken.

Boom...... Boom......

The rapid and heavy footsteps made the whole ground tremble, accompanied by the sound of the falling trees, which was like a death sound!

Run! Run!! Run!!!

Among the thorns, his dark eyes were full of panic, and he tried to move his four short legs, and in his simple consciousness, there seemed to be only one thought.

The scene of the companion being preyed on is not unseen, the miserable wail, the powerless struggle, the brilliant red flying, it looks so terrifying, and now that terrible scene is approaching.

Roar!

Behind them, an earth-shattering roar rang out, and a terrifying shadow descended in the afterglow, and the huge soles of the feet fell like mountains.

Pu!

The terrifying force pressed down from his back, and his body seemed to explode, and the blood in his whole body seemed to rush to his head, and his eyes were instantly covered with a layer of red.

At this moment, only despair fills the consciousness, and the tearing pain caused by the breaking of the limbs and the suffocation of the body being crushed do not seem to be so important, because death has come!

Next to it, there is a big tree that is unknown how many years ago, with its thick and blunt claws, weakly picking at the bark and protruding rhizomes on the ground, but it still can't change the outcome.

Click.

That's the last sound.

The roar of the huge figure with a sense of triumphant satisfaction was almost inaudible, the power was passing fast, consciousness was drowsy, and darkness was descending before the eyes......

A few days later, all that was left was a swarm of green flies, buzzing around some of the broken bones.

……

The earth trembled and cracked with a terrifying roar, and an endless gray mist swept over this land of life.

The warmth passes, the cold falls, and the world falls silent under the cover of snow and ice.

……

The clouds move and the wind goes, and the vicissitudes of the sea.

Time passes slowly between the sun and sunset.

It is no longer a plain, the earth is gradually rising in the shaking, and the snow is covered with snow and warmer again.

There are mountains, water, trees, flowers and plants, apes, tigers, eagles, birds, colorful butterflies, insects.

The breath of life gradually thickens here.

A group of short-tailed monkeys squeaked and squeaked through the dense forest, picking fruits that had turned reddish on their branches.

Squeak squeak!

The majestic black monkey bared its teeth and stretched out its arm to slap the yellow-haired little monkey on the side.

Yikes! The little monkey retreated in terror and immediately ran up to another big tree next to it.

This piece of hanging branches near the ground, under the long-term sunbath, more than a dozen fruits have been half red, the taste is very wonderful, the little monkey has gradually mastered this law after many bitter tastes.

But the strong black monkey was not something to provoke himself, and he could only watch the black monkey climb the low branches.

Whoa!

The black monkey proudly pulled over the branch, and took an excited bite, the crystal juice dripping on the black monkey's front paws, and it looked around vigilantly, and there was a slight pause when it swept past the little monkey.

Scold!

The black monkey raised his head and bared his teeth, shaking the branches vigorously towards the little monkey, as if to warn the little monkey to leave early.

Chirping......

The little monkey's neck shrank, and he reluctantly glanced at the more than ten fruits that were mostly red, and finally slowly turned his head to prepare to leave, and there was a sound of rattling not far away, it was other companions, there would be other fruits here, and it also knew this.

Just as the little monkey turned its head and swept its gaze over the slightly yellowed dead grass, it suddenly saw a pair of long, narrow eyes with faint yellow, and fear instantly occupied its entire consciousness, the monkey hair on its whole body stood on end, and its short tail stood up to the sky.

Squeak squeak!!

The little monkey let out a rapid scream.

The black monkey, which had been feasting, immediately turned its head, and with a bow of its body, it had already bounced and leaped towards the higher branches.

Wow!

Just a few meters away, the weeds suddenly exploded, and a black and yellow sturdy body shot out like lightning, bringing a fishy wind.

Chirping!

A terrible cry sounded, and the black monkey had just jumped halfway up when he was slapped on the abdomen by a thick and powerful big paw, and with a bang, it hit the root of the big tree where the little monkey was.

Creak...... Creak......

The miserable screams instantly detonated the small forest, and dozens of short-tailed monkeys no longer bothered to pick the delicious fruits, and scrambled to the tall trees that were nearby, quickly turning their heads around, and looking in the direction from which the terrible sound came from with horror.

The black monkey suffered a terrible blow, and a half-foot wound was torn open in the abdomen by the sharp claws, and blood gushed out, hitting the trunk of the tree again, only to feel a dizziness.

But now that it is in a life-and-death crisis, instinctively, it still struggles to stretch out its front paws, trying to climb the big tree next to it.

Go up, there is still life, otherwise, you will definitely die!

It's just that the vigorous black and yellow figure didn't give it a chance, and its hind limbs just hit the ground, and it had already turned around and pounced.

The long and narrow eyes and white fangs quickly enlarged in front of the black monkey's eyes, click!

A brilliant red rush soared, and the black monkey's limbs kicked violently, and the bark of the tree clawed flew away, but after only a moment, it turned into a gentle convulsion.

A drop of blood flying high landed on the tip of the little monkey's nose on the treetops, with a warm and strong fishy smell.

Chirping......

The strange thing is that at this moment, the little monkey's pupils suddenly dilated to the extreme, and his whole body was even stiffer, as if he didn't know that the terrible killing was happening under his feet.

The same click, as if it exploded in my ears, why is the scene of the bark tearing so familiar?

Déjà vu?

It's not déjà vu! It's like experiencing it yourself!

Roar!

Under the tree, a big paw held down the black monkey that was no longer struggling, it gradually loosened its mouth, raised its head slightly, squinted at the little monkey on the treetops, and suddenly opened its mouth and roared.

The blood-stained fangs were dripping scarlet, and even the long beard around the lips was dyed red.

The little monkey was awakened by this loud roar, and was terrified and desperately climbed towards the high branches.

It desperately wanted to stay away, but the big tree was far away from the trees on the side, and it couldn't jump over it at all, so it could only cower and hold on to the shaking branches, not daring to let go.

The black and yellow figure lingered under the tree for a moment, and then dragged the immobile black monkey back into the dense grass, leaving only a puddle of blinding scarlet under the tree that gradually seeped into the ground and withered leaves.

There seemed to be a breeze blowing through the gap in the forest, rolling up a dozen dead leaves and falling, slightly obscuring the blood.

The little monkey looked around in a panic, constantly searching among the grass under the trees, and it wanted to leave, but it was extremely frightened, not knowing if there was still a danger lurking below.

Creak......

It seemed that a long time had passed, and there was no movement among the grass, but in the distance, the monkeys began to stir.

The little monkey cautiously followed the trunk of the tree, its eyes quickly rolling, until it was only a meter or two close to the ground, and its hind limbs kicked the trunk suddenly, jumping down the tree, and running away in the direction of the monkeys.

……

It's a group of sixty or seventy members, big or small.

During an ordinary foraging activity, the group was already missing one member, the strong black monkey. However, this seems to have become accustomed to the monkey group, dozens of baby monkeys are born every year, during which too many die for various reasons, the disappearance of the black monkey, after the horror, no other monkey will always care.

But this day was a little unusual, the death of the black monkey made this little monkey with yellow fur change a little.

In the days that followed, although he would go with other monkeys every day to look for fruit, when he returned to the edge of the cave where he lived, he often squatted alone on the crooked-necked tree, quietly in a daze.

It was like thinking about something......

The moonlight is like water, and the wind sweeps through the treetops.

A few gray donkeys walked slowly through the darkness, occasionally bowing their heads and nibbling on a few yellowed blades of grass.

The little monkey suddenly opened his mouth, his tongue curled out unnaturally, and his round eyes showed a hint of doubt, why did he always think that those blades of grass were also delicious?

Since the death of the black monkey, it has had this feeling many times, and always felt that it seemed to like eating grass very much, but after several attempts, it felt that the grass blades were bitter and boring, and not as beautiful as they imagined.

It slowly slid down the trunk, stretched out its furry front paws, and took a thick blade of grass close to the ground in its mouth, and sat down on the crooked neck tree again.

With the sour grass juice spreading in the mouth, the little monkey grinned.

Karma ......

The long cry of the night bird sounded overhead, and the little monkey looked up, just in time to see the bright moon hanging high.

The little monkey was half-open, and suddenly froze.

The brightness of the sky is so familiar, it seems that many years ago, I also liked to chew on the fresh grass like this, looking up at the bright moon.

It seemed to be in some pain, and kept clutching its head and trying to think about it, and both eyes were a little red, and I don't know how long later......

Rumble!

It seemed that countless memories had exploded in its consciousness.

The vast plains, under the blue sky and white clouds, huge beasts galloped, the earth was roaring and shaking, and the sky, huge birds with huge wings and sharp beaks swept by, flying quickly into the distance......

Between the dense forests, terrible roars, mountain-like claws, heart-rending pain......

The little monkey froze, the originally sour grass juice in its mouth suddenly became a little sweet at this moment, and its consciousness was drowsy, and it gradually fell asleep on the trunk of the tree lying horizontally.

What it didn't know was that a shining light was coming from afar, piercing the dark night sky like a meteor, and finally reached the top of the mountain where the little monkey was, and hovered there all night, as if searching for something, until the first dawn of the morning, the shining light was unwilling to leave.

……

A snowy winter has passed.

The greenery of the earth is gradually revealed, and the monkeys are starting to come alive again after a difficult season.

While a group of monkeys were busy searching for nuts and nuts, the little monkeys wandered among the grass, twisting a little green from time to time and sending it to taste in their mouths.

Gradually, the little monkey became an outlier in the monkey group, although it also likes to eat all kinds of fruits hanging high on the branches, but many times, it will actually eat grass like those yellow sheep and gray donkeys!

And it seems to be very delicious......

……

More than 10 years later, the baby monkey is old, its coat is still yellowish, and it is no longer able to climb the tall trees to pick juicy fruits, and more often than not, it spends its time grazing around the cave where it lives.

On a moonlit night, the little monkey, who had become an old monkey, sat on the tree with a crooked neck, looking up at the jade plate in the sky, his once bright eyes, dim.

Chirping......

It let out its last feeble call, its eyelids slowly drooped, and its body swayed, falling from the trunk......
