There was a creaking sound all around, and there was a stir in the trees, and I saw hundreds of monkeys in all directions of us, standing on branches or crouching on the ground, all glaring at us.

My expression suddenly froze, these monkeys are okay, but just now there are human voices in this primeval forest, is it that there are really monsters who have become spirits among these monkeys.

I held my sword in one hand, watching warily in the direction from which the voice came, and the little thunderbeast cowered next to me, grinning into the distance.

Finally, with the sound of footsteps, I saw a huge ape nearly three meters tall walking towards us surrounded by more than a dozen monkeys, his whole body was covered with thick long hair, and a pair of erect white ears stood on his head, which looked a little abrupt, and his big mouth opened slightly to reveal the burnt yellow fangs inside, which made people feel a little fierce at a glance.

My eyes are awe-inspiring, this guy is by no means an ordinary monkey, this height and appearance, even if it is not a strange thing, is definitely a wild species, not to be underestimated. But what surprised me the most was not the giant ape, but the man standing next to him.

This man is about twenty-five or sixteen years old, with a slightly rough appearance, messy hair, a beard, and some shabby clothes on his body, this appearance looks more like a wild man in the mountains and forests, and what makes people feel amazing is that this man actually stands next to the huge ape and looks calm, and the monkeys around him are also in awe of him, I secretly said in my heart that this man is not simple.

"Little brother, don't look at me so nervously, it's rare to see people in this wood, I won't hurt you." The bearded man said to me with a smile, judging by his voice, he should have been the one who spoke just now.

I glanced around warily and said, "Who are you?" And what do these monkeys mean by stalking us? ”

The bearded man smiled and said heartily: "My name is auspicious, these are my companions in the mountains and forests." ”

Auspicious?

It's a good name, but with the decadent and rugged face in front of you, it can't help but make people feel a little weird.

At that moment, I saw the huge ape step up to the Tibetan chief monkey who had fallen from the tree, and he stretched out a large hand and pulled out the messy hair on his body, and then made a black mud-like object and stuffed it into the wounded monkey's mouth.

The monkey was forcibly stuffed with a mouthful of black mud, and his face became distorted, but under the powerful power of the ape, he didn't dare to resist, and could only swallow the black mud with a bitter face.

"Brother Jixiang, we are two tourists who strayed into this place and are about to leave here." I politely said that since this strange man named Jixiang was putting on a friendly appearance, I naturally didn't want to have a bad relationship with him.

"Oh, tourists? Will there be one of these desolate aliens around the tourists? And the blood stains on this girl's clothes, plus this unconscious little girl you are carrying, this thing doesn't look normal. ”

Ji Xiang looked at me with a smile on his face, and with a mocking look on his face, I smiled slightly, what I just said was just to find a step down for both sides and transfer the matter of the injured monkey.

"Tsk, the head of the dragon body, and the sound of lightning and thunder, this guy should be the legendary thunder god, I didn't expect to see one with my own eyes in reality." Jixiang's two eyes looked at the little thunder beast with light, it looked like an old man who had been hungry for ten years staring at a flower girl, and the hair of the little thunder beast was blown up, shrinking beside me and calling incessantly.

At this time, Mu Yueting came from behind, reached out and touched the head of the little thunder beast, and said to Ji Xiang: "We are cultivators from Qingcheng Mountain. ”

Jixiang's eyes lit up and he laughed, "That's right." Are cultivators the same as those practitioners of Taoism who know magic? ”

I nodded, acknowledging it. At this moment, the huge ape walked up to Jixiang and stared at us with a pair of big yellow eyes, and to my surprise, I did not see the ferocity of a beast in these eyes, but felt a kind of wisdom in them, as if standing in front of us at this moment was not an ape-like monster, but an erudite and wise old man.

"Come, let me introduce you to you, this is my good companion in this forest, and it is also the most knowledgeable existence in this Emei Mountain." Ji Xiang stepped forward, stood beside the ape, and said to us with a smile.

Raccoon?

My heart moved, and when I heard this somewhat familiar name, I immediately remembered the origin of this ape-like monster. According to the record of "The Classic of Mountains and Seas, the Classic of Nanshan": "There are beasts, its shape is like Yu and white ears, and people walk in ambush, and its name is called Raccoon, and the food is good to go." "It is said that the creature looks like an ape, with a pair of white ears on its head, and if it eats the meat of a raccoon, the whole person will become good at walking and running.

And in "On Heng and Yes", it is said: "The fox knows the past, and the Qianque knows the future." This means that the monster can know about the past, and another creature called the Qianque can know about the future. And it is also recorded in the "Huainanzi General Theory" of the King of Huainan of the Western Han Dynasty: "The raccoon knows the past but does not know the future." "This proves that the creature is able to learn about the past, and it can be seen that this kind of thing is different from ordinary beasts, and it is a creature with great intelligence and talent.

"Chen Zixuan, Mu Yueting."

The fox suddenly spoke, his voice was a little hoarse, but he directly called out the names of me and Mu Yueting, if I hadn't seen the record of the fox in the book before, I am afraid I would have been shocked, but Rao is so, I am still very surprised by this creature that can know the past.

On the other side, Mu Yueting had never heard of the raccoon skills, and was suddenly shocked, looking at the other side with a wary face. I hurriedly whispered an explanation to her, and she nodded abruptly and regained her composure.

However, a thought suddenly popped up in my heart, since this raccoon can know what happened in the past, although I don't know if there are any restrictions and taboos on this ability, but he may be able to know a thing or two about Che Mazhi's whereabouts, and even use his skills to catch Che Mazhi, when I think of this, I can't help but feel a little hot in my heart.

"Since the two cultivators of Qingcheng Mountain, how did they come to the top of this Emei mountain, looking at the appearance of your body, didn't you have a fight with someone just now, this girl looks like she is not lightly injured?" Ji Xiang looked at me and Mu Yueting and asked, he spoke with a lot of anger and full of manly flavor.

I just wanted to answer, but suddenly a thought in my heart, why not use this question to try the skills of this raccoon, I immediately laughed and said: "I heard before that the raccoon can know the past, the purpose of our coming to Mount Emei and what happened just now, this person should know a thing or two, right?" ”

As soon as I finished speaking, I looked at the fox with burning eyes, and I had some anticipation in my heart.

Ji Xiang glanced at me in some surprise, hesitated for a moment, and said: "Little brother doesn't know, this raccoon does have the legendary talent of knowing the past, but this ability to defy the sky naturally has many taboos, one of which is that what happens must be within a certain range of the raccoon, once it is too far away, it will not be known." ”

After listening to the auspicious words, although I had already guessed that this kind of ability that was almost against the sky would definitely have some limitations, I was still a little disappointed after hearing his confirmation, and I had to know it within a certain range.

Just when I was wondering whether I should ask for help from the man and ape in front of me, the Fox, who had been silent since calling our names, said, "You want to find Chemazhi. ”

I was stunned for a moment, then immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly asked, "Do you know Che Mazhi's whereabouts?" ”

The fox was silent, but Jixiang on the side frowned and said, "Che Mazhi, ......"
