Chapter 9 The White Monkey as a Companion
"Ah...... What is this!" The princess lit her torch and found a white velvet creature curled up on the peach tree outside the cave. Seeing that there was nothing strange around, I took a closer look at it. It turned out to be a little white monkey, with a fluffy, pure white and shiny body, holding a peach tree, and holding a small peach and whispering. The little white monkey was very cute, not like a vicious look.
Seeing that there was no danger, the princess called the little white monkey to jump over the hole. I didn't want to shout twice, but I didn't move, and I was so scared that I ran away. The princess was about to wave her hand to try it, but she saw that she had a torch in her hand. Only then did I remember that animals are afraid of fire, no wonder they ran away. He set off the torch and continued to shout, and then something strange happened. The monkey followed the princess and shouted "little white monkey". The princess was surprised, could this guy speak, and shouted twice, "Come, come," but the white monkey was not idle, and immediately jumped on the top of the tree with great vigor, shouting, "Come! Come!" Haha! This is interesting, could it be that you have touched a talking elf and a ghost!
The princess was interested, so she went back to the cave and fetched the wild chestnuts, and teased the little white monkey into the cave. Sure enough, the monkey could not resist the temptation, and jumped to the princess in two strokes. This white monkey is exquisitely born, and the hair on his whole body is shiny and flawless. The most interesting thing is that there is a pinch of sharp hair on the top of the head, as if it has been shaped, upside down. The white monkey has a unique face, three small arcs outlining the face, with two dripping black eyes, and a big mouth that can talk, forming a somewhat elf, some funny, and some weird monkey face.
It turns out that the little white monkey has a strange power out of nowhere, just like a talking parrot, which can learn the style of a human and say a few words of gossip from other people's mouths. The princess seemed to have a new companion, holding the monkey all day long, inside and outside the cave. And at the same time in a daze, we can talk about our hearts together. Interestingly, once those thoughts come out of the mouth of the white monkey, they seem to have new wings, and the meaning and meaning are endless. For example, if the princess says "the princess hates the palace", and the little white monkey also says this, the princess seems to have the same hatred in her heart, and gets a satisfactory catharsis; for example, the princess says "what is the princess marrying the prince", if the words come out of the white monkey's mouth, the princess has a great imagination, and also arouses her thoughts and depression about the marriage before and after, and now she is idle in the cave; "The Grand Canyon of Shenren Mountain is so beautiful." The white monkey saw and heard it somehow, and said the same exclamation. When the princess heard this, it turned out that I was not the only one who could feel the beauty, and she felt more and more that this life was in vain, and it was not worth the difficulty of this trip.
As for the little white monkey, it seems that in this other cave, he has found another monkey mother full of maternal love. Perhaps the monkey was a group of monkeys in the mountains, and he was accepted in a hurry. Now I met a princess who was also left in the cave, and the two seemed to be lonely fellow travelers together. So they chatted with each other and told each other during the day. At night, snuggle up in this narrow cave in the cold mountain and hug each other, rubbing their body temperature together to keep warm. The little white monkey is also well-behaved, in addition to learning to speak like a young child, and pretending to say some random responses, he also obediently became the only pet of the lonely princess. These are all very happy wild things, and the princess has a little white monkey, and her heart is suddenly enlightened, like the elusive wild man, and it is not so terrible.
Gradually, the princess saw that the soldiers and ships at the foot of the mountain were multiplying. Everyone was yelling and running around, and there was no stop all day. The villagers not far from the shore were also in a hurry, but they couldn't see what everyone was doing and what they were busy with. On this day, a medicine picker was hoisted into the hole by a rope and brought the princess some food, clothing, bedding, etc., brought by the government. The medicine picker seems to be surnamed Li, he is old and thin, and he doesn't talk much, as if he is hiding troubles, and even the surname is only said after asking the old man for a long time. The princess wanted to ask for some news from Grandpa Li, but she couldn't get it, so she could only look at Grandpa Li being hung away again. The princess was stupidly aggrieved for a long time, thinking that it seems that leaving this cave is not so simple. But it's also good that he is far away from this group of arrogant officials and grandfathers, but he is also a lot more comfortable, so why bother himself? Didn't he look forward to leaving the ship and landing on the shore a few days ago? Isn't it very good now? There is no one to guard it, unlike the palace where he was a child, and he is as uncomfortable as a prison.
The next day, Na Yu'e also hung herself from the rope, which made the princess very happy.
"Yu'e, why are you here!?"
"Princess, oh, poor princess, Yu'e is not good! It was Yu'e who didn't accompany the princess well, let the princess fall into the water, and beg the princess to forgive her sin! Yu'e is willing to accompany her for eternity, and she will never dare to miss the slightest!" Yu'e knelt and cried.
"Good girl, everything is over, it's no big deal, and sister doesn't blame you. Good sister, get up! Look, my sister is in this cave, isn't it very good! Here, you come and see, come and see, there is food and drink here, and there is such a beautiful pure mountain scenery, my sister doesn't want to be a palace, she just wants to be a mountain beauty here! Hehe, come ......"
Yu'e looked at the princess and saw that there was no blame on her face. It seems that there is no longer long-term depression, and there is a lot of spirit in this cave. "Is that so?!......" Yu'e wondered as she was held by the princess. However, she was sure that the princess's face was no longer sad, but showed some brightness between her thin eyebrows. Yu'e looked left and right again, but she couldn't help but shed tears.
"Princess, princess is guilty! I hate that wild man, how can you come up with such a trick to put the princess on this mountain, what the hell are you going to do? Princess, you will suffer......" Yu'e looked at the princess and cried.
"Devil's trick, devil's trick......" I heard a scream from behind the princess, and then the voice jumped on the princess's shoulder. Yu'e searched for it and was suddenly startled.
“...... Ahh......h
"Hehe, don't be afraid, Yu'e, this is a little white monkey, I'm in this hole, and I rely on it to relieve my boredom. You see, it's so white and cute! What's even more strange is that this white monkey can learn how to speak. Look, it's Sister Yu'e!" said the princess, hugging the monkey.
"Yu'e, sister!hehe! squeak!" I just heard the little white monkey really say it, but it was just squeaky and incoherent. Yu'e looked at the white monkey, stroked its bright hair, stared at its small eyes, teasing and loving. The little white monkey looked at Yu'e while amused.
This cave is lively, and Princess Yu'e has a lot of words, and this is a very difficult time, so she can't stop talking for a while. And the little white monkey in the mountains has never been idle in the mountain monkey group, and now he can learn to say three and a half sentences, and the more afraid he is to jump around in the cave and scream.
It turned out that Yu'e had been in a coma for a night since she was rescued from the water. When he woke up, he found that the princess had been kidnapped by the savages, so he cried and cried alone for a long time. Later, I went to find Uncle Long, but I was ridiculed by Uncle Long a lot. I thought about what to do alone. This Yu'e was originally just a little girl in a rural area of the Tencel Kingdom, but because her parents died early, she was adopted, and then sold into the palace. When the king of Tencel saw that she was about the same age as the princess, he asked her to accompany her. Therefore, Yu'e and the princess have had a deep relationship since childhood, and this time they married far away, and the princess also had to accompany Yu'e. As for Yu'e, she is naturally very willing, she knows the princess's temperament best, and she also knows that the princess treats her like a sister, not comparable to other people in the palace. You must know that a little servant girl is often called by others, and she is also the most sensitive to the face of her master. But the princess is a little out of the world, and never shows her status and humility. Right now, I can't see Sister Tencel who is like a shadow, and I think that the princess is often the one who seeks freedom, but she is always tossed around. So my nose was sore, and I was sad and weeping. After inquiring about it, the princess was placed in the cave of Wangnu Peak by the savages, and took a small boat to the foot of the cave. It was just a glimpse of the mountain so high and dangerous, and it was difficult to hear a word or shout, so I was in a hurry, what should I do? However, from the herb man Grandpa Li, I learned that the princess was all right, and I was relieved. On the second day, Yu'e ordered the officers and soldiers to hang themselves in the cave, and they were willing to accompany the princess for the rest of their lives, especially when this danger was difficult.
The princess knew what happened to Yu'e, so she asked Uncle Long about the situation again. Yu'e will talk about the prince's arrival in the wild people the day before yesterday, as well as the situation of Uncle Long. also depicted the crown prince, but he didn't dare to say anything hateful, after all, he was the groom of the family. Now the princess is alone in the cave, like a person who has no home and no hope. If the prince's naivety and arrogance are talked about too much, I am afraid that the princess will not know how worried and depressed she is. On the edge of this rarely populated cliff, if the princess can't think of a mistake, it will be a big deal.
Yu'e also found that this wild place with a dangerous mountain peak has no cumbersome rich life. In addition to eating, sleeping and sleeping all day long, you can enjoy the scenery and think about your heart. No one is shouting, shouting, scolding, it's wrong here, it's wrong there, and I have to do something aggrieved and hurtful. In this cave, the princess is becoming more and more like a big sister, arranging where Yu'e sleeps every day, how to make a fire, or burn something to eat. Yu'e also saw that every morning the princess got up early, leaned alone at the entrance of the cave, and watched alone, thoughtfully. Yu'e didn't bother, just when she didn't see it, she thought that she should also give the princess her own time, and the princess was often used to being in a daze. The important thing is that Yu'e knows that the princess's face has long since lost the many bitter looks of the previous days on the ground, her complexion has changed greatly, and there is a lot less sigh when she speaks.
On this day, the medicine picker Grandpa Li was hung down again. It's just that his face is sad, and his face is even more ugly than that of the previous two days. The princess tried to ask in a commanding tone, but in addition to receiving no answer as usual, there was a faint grunt of disdain in her nose. The princess is on fire now, and now she has to let you open Chrysostom, so she asked angrily again.
"Oh, the princess above, you are good, you don't ask!" Grandpa Li finally broke out, just pleading, and crying. Princess Yu'e saw that something was wrong, so she comforted her.
"My Princess, Your Majesty! Hey, princess, please, get out of the Grand Canyon quickly! I'm an old bone, so I'll get down on my knees and beg you!" said Grandpa Li, kneeling on the ground and sobbing loudly.
Princess Yu'e looked at each other, and asked in detail while helping her grandfather up.
