Chapter 43: The Legend of the River God
No matter how the monkey king drove them, several tigers just didn't dare to take a step forward.
The Monkey King was also anxious, and simply called out to the other monkeys to jump down from the tiger's back, and rushed towards us with bared teeth.
When I looked at the weapons in their hands, I was stunned for a moment.
Rushing to the front should be the Monkey King, who is holding a one-meter-long black-backed broadsword in his hand, and several other monkeys are also holding quaint swords, and they are a little old at first glance.
It is absolutely impossible for them to make these weapons themselves, could it be that there is a manipulator behind the monkey people?
These thoughts flashed through me, and the Monkey King had already rushed over, and I was about to reach out and grab the two stones on the ground, but as soon as my hand was stretched out, I heard a "pop", and the Monkey King's cold knife had been inserted in front of me.
I was about to retreat when the Monkey King pounced and threw a punch to my right cheek.
The Monkey King stood upright and was more than 1.8 meters tall, as strong as a cow, and if he punched him in the face, he would be seriously injured even if he didn't die.
I can't help it! I stretched out my arm and met him.
"Smack"
I crossed arms with the Monkey King, and there was a loud bang that shook me back three steps in quick succession.
Apparently the Monkey King didn't expect me to catch his powerful punch, and he froze for a moment, then became even more annoyed, and roared again and punched at me.
I looked at the Monkey King in front of me in shock, and I didn't have the strength to react anymore.
At this moment, I heard something from the grandmother behind me, and I saw the Monkey King who swung his fist into the air and froze still.
Looking at the angry expression of the Monkey King, you can know that it is not because I am thin and small, and I have a temporary kindness, but because I was frozen by my grandmother with Gu magic.
Several other monkeys then pounced, and before they could get close to us, they were all frozen in place.
I hurriedly leaned over to help my grandmother and asked, "What kind of spell is this?" Such a?"
Grandma coughed dryly a few times, as if she was very tired, took a deep breath, and then squeezed out this sentence, "This is a fixed body Gu, it can only last for five minutes!" ”
Seeing Grandma's appearance, I guessed that this kind of fixation Gu could not be used casually, at least it required a lot of energy.
Several middle-aged women hurriedly stepped forward, snatched the swords brought by the monkeys, and looked at the monkeys, who bared their teeth and grinned with anger, but unfortunately their bodies could not move.
Just as the sword was halfway through, Grandma shouted, "Slow! ”
Several people quickly stopped.
Grandma walked to the Monkey King, carefully looked at the hideous monkey face, and took a deep breath of cold air.
Seeing this, I hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" Grandma, what's the problem? ”
Grandma slowly stretched out her hand, pulled off a hair from the center of the monkey king's eyebrows, put it back to her mouth and sniffed it.
He muttered, "No wonder! No wonder! ”
Everyone, even the middle-aged women near Grandma, were at a loss, looking at Grandma and waiting for her next step.
However, Grandma did not speak again, but took out a small bottle from her sleeve, poured a little pink powder from it, and sprinkled it into the nostrils of the Monkey King.
Then she handed the vial to a stocky middle-aged woman beside her, and winked.
This middle-aged woman, who must have been serving her grandmother all year round, immediately understood what she meant, and quickly sprinkled some powder into the nostrils of several other monkeys.
Then my grandmother waved her arms, and I saw some tiny, glowing insects flying out of her sleeves and into the nostrils and ears of several monkeys.
"Pluck a golden hair from the center of their eyebrows!"
Grandma shouted.
Several middle-aged women rushed up and plucked a hair from the center of each monkey's eyebrows.
After doing all this, Grandma let out a long sigh.
"These monkey people have also been tricked! What a strangeness! Grandma sighed and muttered.
This sentence was a bomb, and everyone who heard it looked incredulous.
Several middle-aged women looked at each other, as if they didn't know what grandma meant.
After hesitating for a moment, the middle-aged fat woman leaned over and asked Grandma in a low voice, "Mom, do you mean that in addition to us, people can use Gu?" ”
Grandma shook her head, and replied in an extremely hoarse voice: "I just said that they were tricked, but I didn't say that the one who was tricked must be a person!" According to my understanding, this 'Heartless Gu' has been lost for hundreds of years, and I don't quite believe that there will be anyone in the world who will use it. ”
The tigers in the distance seemed to be in a hurry, digging the soil with their front paws, but they didn't dare to approach.
I wanted to hold back and listen to their conversation, but everyone looked at the tiger in the distance and didn't speak.
"Grandma, it's not a human being who understands Gu arts!"
I finally couldn't hold it anymore and asked in a whisper.
Grandma's eyes were still looking into the distance, and she shook her head gently.
Just when I was at a loss, suddenly my grandmother shouted, "Go back!" ”
I saw the tigers running back into the woods with their tails hanging down and running for their lives.
After the tiger scurried into the woods, the monkey king first moved a few times, then took a few steps back angrily, and glared at us. The other monkeys did the same, leaning over to the Monkey King's side and baring their teeth at us.
Grandma raised her crutches and said to the Monkey King, "Do you want to live or die!" ”
Grandma's words are very low and gentle, but I feel very domineering!
The Monkey King first made a roaring and thumping motion, then lowered his arms and drooped his head.
Grandma gently stretched out her right hand, and the Monkey King slowly leaned over, squatted on the ground, lowered his head and put his hands on Grandma's hands.
Later, I realized that this was an action by the monkey world, a sign of surrender.
This monkey is the same as the fierce horse, the more stubborn and powerful it is, the more difficult it is to conquer, but once you conquer it, it will also surrender to you absolutely.
Seeing that their boss was subdued, the other monkeys also lowered their heads.
The monkey nodded to his grandmother and turned to look at me again.
At that time, I was immersed in the harmonious atmosphere of "humans and monkeys turning enemies into friends", and I was taken aback by the actions of the monkey king.
It staggered over to me (so scared that I couldn't breathe), crouched down, lowered its head, and put its hands in front of me.
I don't understand what that means! Just look at grandma.
Grandma laughed dryly, "This is surrendering to you!" If you don't fight, you don't know each other, the Monkey King admires you very much! ”
It dawned on me that the Monkey King felt that there were few humans who could catch his punch, but I didn't expect me to be so thin, but I caught it.
Grandma laughed a few more times, turned her head to the middle-aged woman beside her, and said, "Give the Gu Powder to the Monkey King!" ”
The middle-aged woman immediately took out a bottle the size of a canned food bottle and handed it to the Monkey King.
"We've been safe and sound before, but since more than ten years ago, you started to frequently rush into our stockade and loot things, and now I finally know the reason!"
Grandma said to the Monkey King.
The Monkey King seemed to understand Grandma's words, and nodded very cooperatively.
"This is Gu debugging powder, enough for you to use, after you go back, sprinkle it on your body, you can solve the Gu, and it can also prevent insect bites within a month."
The Monkey King glanced at the bottle in his hand and nodded again.
"There's something more important I want to ask you." Grandma's voice sank and she said.
The Monkey King stared at his grandmother with puzzled eyes, waiting for her next, and I and everyone else waited too.
"Where else have you been besides the woods?" Grandma asked.
The Monkey King didn't seem to understand, scratched his head, and shook his head again.
Grandma was silent for a while, then walked to the black-backed ancient knife and asked the Monkey King, "Where did you get this knife?" ”
When it came to the knife, the Monkey King understood, and while gesturing, he squeaked and said a lot.
It's a pity that it's not human words, and I can't understand a word.
Grandma seemed to be able to understand a few words, and kept shaking her head as she listened.
After the Monkey King left, I asked my grandmother what the Monkey King had said.
It turned out that about fifteen or sixteen years ago, a monkey who was shaving potatoes found a hole, and out of curiosity, several monkeys got into it, and who knew that some strange-shaped tools were found in the hole, but it was still useful.
Later, the Monkey King led people into this cave many times and took a lot of things.
The last time they entered the cave, a monkey did not know where it had touched it, and after a loud noise, a rectangular cabinet in the cave opened and a man sat up from it......
Of course, the description of the Monkey King is very unclear, and the translation of Grandma may not be accurate, so that's probably what it means!
Since then, the monkeys seem to have become very crazy, and often rush to the stockade to grab things, and they don't understand all these behaviors, as if their brains are controlled by something.
Speaking of which, I can understand that the monkeys should have been tricked.
But what is this cave?
My grandmother and I chatted and walked forward, now the second big trouble of the cottage has been solved, today is the twelfth day of the lunar calendar, and tomorrow night will be the beginning of the "full moon night".
As we spoke, several women walked past us carrying the monkey-man weapons.
Seeing those weapons, a flash of inspiration flashed in my mind, and I suddenly thought of a possible way.
These swords look a little old, and they were obtained from that strange cave, so you may be able to know what kind of hole it is based on the information of this ancient weapon.
I think of antique plums.
"Grandma, Xiao Zhen's friend should also be our copycat friend!"
I asked my grandmother with a hippie smile.
Grandma was stunned for a moment and replied, "Of course! The friends of the owner of the cottage should be the VIPs of our cottage! ”
As soon as Grandma finished speaking, she understood what I meant, and patted me on the shoulder with a dry smile.
Chen Laosan and Li Xiaobai were quickly brought over, and for grandma, it was a matter of every second.
After the three of them were unraveled, they looked around and were stunned for a few seconds, obviously not knowing why they were here.
I guess that the queen of them is like a walking corpse, and they have no memory at all during this time.
After all, Antique Li was old, obviously a little sluggish, shaking his head, and suddenly saw the ancient weapons in the hands of several middle-aged women, and suddenly his eyes widened, and the whole person was trembling.
