Chapter 7 Swallowing Red Fruit by Mistake

It's really boring in Xifeng, Zuo Tianyang is right, the strangeness when he first came disappeared quickly, although He Chong's martial arts have made great progress, but he feels that this place is quiet, no one wants to say a word, he thinks that in addition to practicing, he should also have some things he likes to do, he often heard Lu Wanjin say that Qianfeng Mountain is a good place when he was in the main peak, the mountains and rivers are handsome, everything has aura, it is a good place, they often run to the mountain to play. He Chong felt that there was nothing to do on the West Peak, so he went to the mountain to visit and see what fun was hidden here.

After He Chong's practice was over, he slipped out of the back door, in front of Shen Peng, he was an obedient and diligent good boy who practiced martial arts, and he felt a little embarrassed to go out to play secretly, so he didn't dare to go out of the front door, so he had to go out through the back door. The courtyard was quiet, and no one cared who ran out, but he had a ghost in his heart.

Out of the back door, he ran along the path on the hill to the back mountain. The mountain is indeed very beautiful, although He Chong is still young, he doesn't know how to appreciate, but the green mountains are full of life, it turns out that he is not in the mood to see, this time he sneaked out, so that he was in a very happy mood, he heard the insects and birds on the mountain, which made him itch in his heart, and wanted to catch a few to play.

He searched in the grass for a long time, the insects on the mountain were too flexible, he couldn't catch them, which made him very interested, along the path down the mountain, all the way down, sometimes startled a few birds, he regretted that he didn't find them early, or he would have caught them, but unfortunately those birds were too cleverly hidden, and when they flew He Chong didn't see how they were hidden in the grass. The trail is bumpy, and you turn left and right and go down the mountain. Almost halfway up the mountain, the path turned to the right, a small open field appeared in front of him, water flowed out of the stone cracks on the mountain, forming a small waterfall, the water hit the stone wall and made a crisp sound, the breeze blew from the side of the mountain, with water vapor, He Chong felt that his face was cool, soft, and his heart was very happy. He walked over, there was a small pond under the small waterfall, He Chong walked there, and when he saw the water of Qing Lingling, he was very happy and jumped into the water to play. There was nothing in the water, but the water was cool and the weather was a little hot, and He Chong felt very happy when he jumped in.

After playing for a long time, He Chong remembered that he had to go back quickly, he had to rush back for dinner, and He Chong was thin-skinned, if Shen Peng knew that he had sneaked out, even if Shen Peng didn't say anything, I was afraid that he would have to blush.

He was about to leave here and rush back, when he saw something moving in the grass by the pond, the movement was not small, he felt that it might be some kind of beast, so he quickly shrank into the grass on the side, and when he hid it, there was no movement. After a while, the grass began to move again, and an unknown animal came out of it.

He Chong saw it and was startled, this was obviously a monster, I saw it on all fours, covered in ashes, unable to see on its face, unable to recognize its appearance, only saw two eyes dripping around, and fine teeth in its mouth. The hair on its body is rough, but there is a strand of yellow hair on the top of its head, which is originally very thick and stout, and it should look scary, but its eyes are bright, and it turns with a childlike childishness, what is this? He Chong didn't have the heart to think about it, he just hoped that it would leave quickly, and run back to the mountain by himself, so that Shen Peng could not see that he had gone down the mountain.

The thing licked its mouth by the pond, drank some water, and soaked itself again with the water from the pond, and then ran up the hill.

He Chong saw that it was gone, and hurried back. When we arrived at the mountain, it was still late, and everyone had eaten and gone about their own business. Shen Peng didn't see him, he thought it was strange, and asked everyone to look for it several times, and someone found that the back door was open and knew that he had gone to the mountain. Shen Peng didn't care, it was so boring here, the disciples often went out to play, and some came back very late, he knew He Chong, knew that there would be no danger, and there were no fierce beasts on the mountain, so he waited for him to come back in the house.

He Chong wanted to sneak in through the back door, but Shen Peng had already asked the apprentices to lock the back door, and if he wanted to come in, he had to go through the front door. He Chong was embarrassed to leave and wandered around the door, not knowing what to do. Then he heard a voice behind him.

Damn, he saw the monster passing by the doorway and looked at him curiously. He Chong wasn't afraid, nor did he feel curious, but he didn't know what this strange guy should do for himself.

Suddenly, the guy smiled at him, and suddenly He Chong's legs softened, and his knees felt like they couldn't support it. He didn't dare to fall forward, so he leaned back, and just hit the door, which was unlocked and opened with a bang. He sat down on the ground. The guy saw it and ran away in fright.

"Is He Chong back?" Shen Peng in the room heard a voice outside and asked.

He Chong saw that it ran away, and he returned to the yard himself, a little more relieved. But Shen Peng asked him, he was embarrassed, in a dilemma, he didn't know whether to answer, Shen Peng asked several times in a row, and then he blushed and said, "Master, it's me back." ”

Shen Peng said: "Go, eat." "It's as if nothing has happened.

He Chong was very happy to hear it, he didn't expect Shen Peng to be so loose, if it was in the main peak, Master Kang would have punished Lu Wanjin and the others so much that they couldn't stand up.

He Chong slipped to the back to eat. As he ate, he suddenly became interested in the monster, wondering what it was doing in the grass, and it was just in time for him to leave there, and it seemed that it was just passing by. But why in that bush? He became a little interested, and while eating, he thought, "I must go and see what is in that bush."

The next day, He Chong got up early in the morning, didn't tell anyone, just ran alone, this time he walked to the front door, the main gate was open at that time, he felt embarrassed to go through the back door again, and let Shen Peng tease him again.

He went down to the mountainside, looked left and right in front of the pool, and found nothing, so he ran into the grass to look for it. There was nothing in the grass, and He Chong couldn't see what the monster could do here.

Just when he was at a loss, He Chong found that there were several hard twigs sticking out of the stone wall by the grass, and there were traces left by something on the stone wall, what was it at this time? He touched it with his hand, and those branches stretched out from the cracks in the stone, only a little bit of the building was outside, he didn't know what the use of this could be. He Chong had no choice but to come out of it.

At this time, the sunlight shone down through the thin clouds, just shining on the stone wall, the soft sunlight made the stone wall with a slight cool moisture a little warm, He Chong stood by the pond in a daze, he was still unwilling, after a while, he went in to look again, and found that those branches had grown, and some small green round fruits were on the branches, and he couldn't see anything special about these.

Yesterday the monster came, he thought, in the afternoon, and I'll wait until then to see what the little twigs and the fruit on them have to offer.

He Chong's interest made him forget breakfast and lunch, Shen Peng saw that he went out again, and knew that he was starting to have fun, but it was nothing, just come back and spend more time teaching him to practice.

In the afternoon, when he came to the stone wall again, he saw that the green fruit of the morning had become very red, but it had not grown in size. He said to himself, "Is this thing delicious?"

There was a commotion in the grass on the other side of the waterfall, and he hurried back to the place where he had last hidden, only to see that there was a lot of movement in that place, and it came out again when the monster came out of the grass about the time of yesterday. It still ran back along the mountain road.

He Chong asked himself what was so attractive to him, let it come down from the mountain one after another. He walked to the stone wall, and saw that there was still a small red fruit left on the stone wall, and he plucked the small fruit. As soon as the fruit left the branch, it exuded a fragrant and attractive smell, and He Chong wanted to take a closer look at what it looked like, and how good it was in the end. But the temptation of the fragrance made his mind blank, and he ate the red fruit in one bite.

The fruit was chewed from his mouth and down his throat, He Chong felt cool, so cool that his whole body began to chill, it was so cold that he couldn't bear it anymore, and it began to heat up again, so hot that he was sweating profusely, and it became cold again. After tossing like this two or three times, he felt the world spinning, trying hard to control his spirit and not let himself faint, he stood up twice, and then leaned back, and he didn't know anything.

I don't know how long it took, He Chong woke up, he remembered the feeling he felt after eating the fruit, he was very scared, afraid that he would never wake up again, he desperately shouted: "Can't be like this, can't be like this!"

After shouting a few times, he felt someone pressing his hands and arms and calling his name, telling him to wake up quickly. When he opened his eyes, he found that Master and his brothers were watching him by the bedside.

Shen Peng asked him, "What's wrong with you, why did you faint?"

He Chong thought about it, he didn't dare to tell the truth, and he didn't know what lie to say in order to cover up this matter.

Shen Peng didn't understand, and he was also anxious, and kept asking He Chong, Zuo Tianyang and they also asked him, and the more he asked, the more he didn't dare to tell the truth.

After asking for a long time, He Chong finally made up a reasonable reason, "Master, I just ran there to play, and when it was hot at noon, I wanted to go into the water, but somehow, I didn't remember anything, and then, then, I saw you." ”

Shen Peng listened, and took it seriously, he told He Chong not to go out casually anymore, to go out with his senior brothers, he didn't dare to be so careless anymore, and let the apprentices go out together in the future, in case something happened to take care of each other.

He Chong felt that this matter was hidden, but the fear and questions in his heart became bigger and bigger, and he didn't know when he would find the answer.
