Chapter 39: Mandrills Attack

Everyone looked at Wu Xie's line of sight, and when they saw Granny Monkey staring at them with that strange appearance, they couldn't help but feel a chill down their spines.

Wu Xie has always felt that since the Qinling Mountains, there has been some kind of bad relationship between himself and animals like monkeys.

The fat man whispered, "Maybe the physique of the evil sect will also attract the monkeys of the evil sect." ”

Wu Xie handed him a roll of the eyes, glanced at the time on his watch, and immediately said to everyone: "Hurry up and eat, your ears are pricked up when you sleep tonight, and you are ready to copy the guy at any time." ”

Everyone immediately responded, and Tie Tuo patted the knife at his waist and volunteered to keep vigil.

Wu Xiaoxie walked to the monkey mother-in-law squatting under the tree with his bowl of mutton soup, and put a small white pill in it where it couldn't see, and it melted into the water.

Then he bent down and brought the soup bowl to the monkey mother-in-law's mouth, "Eat, I've locked you up for a day, and I'll improve your food." ”

Granny Monkey was hooked by the lingering fragrance on the tip of her nose, and immediately grabbed the bowl and drank it in a big gulp, grabbed the soft mutton in the bowl in three or two times and ate it all.

Wu Xie went to pick up the bowl, and the monkey mother flicked the chain locked in her neck with her paws, and then looked at him fixedly.

Wu Xie shook his head, "Not yet, when you get to the place, I will naturally let you go." ”

Granny Monkey's dim eyes suddenly narrowed, and she raised her hand and dropped the bowl.

Nie Xiaoba jumped up and scolded, "You are a dead monkey woman, don't give your face a shame, the third master is kind enough to give you soup, if you change me, you won't be given the urine and mud on the soles of your feet to eat." ”

Granny Monkey bared her teeth and looked at Nie Xiaoba coldly.

"Hey, my temper." Nie Xiaoba immediately rolled up his sleeves and wanted to come over and beat him.

Wu Xie stopped him and persuaded: "Forget it, there's no need." ”

With a drizzle and a slight wind, tonight is destined to be sleepless.

There was still an hour before the shift was changed, and the vigil Tietuo yawned, rubbed his eyes and asked Dafu next to him for cigarettes, "Do you have any more cigarettes, come to one, I really want to doze off, why don't you say this monkey San'er hasn't come yet." ”

"It's better not to come." Daifuku took out the cigarette case from his pocket and shook it, took one in his mouth, and left the last one, so he even threw the box to him, "We don't even have a clay fire gun to shoot birds, just a few burning sticks and machetes, why fight." ”

Tie Tuo sneered, "I'm afraid of Sazi, we have their 'hostages' in our hands." ”

"You didn't listen to the little third master, it's not easy to be a spicy monkey mother-in-law, as long as you take a close look at the monkey mother-in-law, that group of grandchildren will beat the rats and pans." Tie Tuo hissed, "Hey, what's that word for?" ”

As he spoke, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a person squatting by the fire.

"That's called a rat trap, you melon skin." Daifuku lowered his head and lit a cigarette with his hand over the lighter, unceremoniously mocking him for being uneducated.

After waiting for a long time and not seeing anyone reply, I wondered when this kid had changed his personality, but when he turned his head, he found that there was no one around him.

Daifuku was stunned for a moment, and immediately turned his head to look around, but only saw the dazzling firelight and a few tents, and the camp was silent as if it was dead.

"Iron Lump! Iron Lump! Do you want a turtle to talk to? Why don't you squeak? Afraid of waking up the people in the tent, he lowered his voice and shouted a few times, but did not hear any response.

"Hemp sells pasa!" He immediately understood that something was wrong, and hurriedly wanted to return to the tent to call the little third master and them.

"Little third master, fat master, it's not good...... Uh......" As soon as he took two steps, he suddenly felt a strangulation in his neck, and the unfinished words instantly stuck in his throat.

The next moment he was pulled up on the spot, suspended in the air, and the machete in his hand fell into the grass with a clatter, making a slight sound.

The suffocating panic filled his mind, and he kicked and struggled to pull the vine around his neck, but no matter how he struggled, the vine kept getting tighter and tighter.

Daifuku's face had turned from swollen red to blue and purple, his head was stretched high, the base of his tongue spasmed, and his eyes were blackened.

At the last moment, a cold light broke through the sky and cut off the vines that were tied to his head.

Daifuku fell from mid-air and collapsed to the ground, covering his neck and panting heavily, covered in a cold sweat.

Immediately afterwards, several sounds of breaking the air were heard, and Wu Xie and the fat man rushed out of the tent in full armor, and the crossbow arrows in their hands kept shooting at the surrounding tree canopy.

A terrible scream pierced the night sky, and several large monkeys fell from the trees.

The monkeys hidden in the canopy didn't expect that Wu Xie and they had already prepared an ambush in advance, and they were caught off guard for a while, and after an ugly scream, the monkey attack was temporarily suspended.

There were many ghosts in the trees, and everywhere there were huge black shadows that were constantly jumping.

The fat man took out a flare gun and shot it into the sky, and the whole space was as bright as day.

Wu Xie and the others also saw clearly, on the branch facing them, surrounded by the group of monkeys, there was a one-armed black-haired giant monkey more than two meters tall standing at the end.

The giant monkey's face was also covered with a hideous human face and bird face, its huge body was three times that of the other monkeys around it, its black hair was as thick as a steel needle, its sharp ears were angry, and its eyes were staring at everyone in the scene viciously.

Facing those blood-red eyes, Nie Xiaoba's lips trembled uncontrollably, "Xiao...... Little Third Master...... Bite...... What to do? We can't beat it. ”

Wu Xie scolded secretly, dog, he thought that it would be ordinary monkeys at most, but he never thought that it would be a mandrill who led the monkey group.

This kind of thing is a kind of ghostly evil thing in folklore that makes people talk about it, and it is more difficult than ordinary zongzi, which is a very tricky and terrifying existence.

In the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", it is written that the mandrill is a monster with a human face and a monkey body, with feet in the palm of the hand, and likes to imitate human behavior, and the sound it makes when laughing is very penetrating.

There are also folk legends of the mandrill's "great achievements", such as one hand can tear open a tiger, one foot can lift half of the mountain, mandrill longevity and the sky Qi, can die and revive.

Of course, this is an exaggeration, but with the huge size of the mandrill in front of him, once it goes crazy, Wu Xie has no doubt that it can tear off all the living people present with his hands.

The mandrill bared his teeth at them sarcastically, reached out and grabbed a bloodied man from the bushes behind him, stepped on his feet, grabbed his arm and twisted it directly, the sound of cracked bones and broken joints and ligaments was terrifying, and then he let go and threw it under the tree without care.

Wu Xie looked at it fixedly, and suddenly gasped, that person was the iron lump that suddenly disappeared just now.

Tie Tuo was dead, lying to the ground like rags, his neck twisted abnormally, most of his face was stripped off, his head was twisted and flipped over like a twist, and the parts of his eyes had turned into bloody holes, and the eyeballs inside were missing.

There was also a large black hole in his stomach, and the flesh near the entrance of the cave was abnormally black and blue, and the intestines and internal organs in it were gone.

Perhaps, it was torn out and eaten, and Wu Xie saw that there was still a little bloodshot left between the open teeth of the mandrill.

As if sensing what Wu Xie was thinking, the mandrill pinched the arm in his hand, opened his bloody mouth and tore off a large piece of meat from the broken mouth, chewing it with relish, like a demonstration.

There was a suppressed retching sound on the side, even if I had seen many scenes of cannibalism in the tomb for the treasure, the scene in front of me was still ferocious and bloody.

Luo Wenbing, who was forced to participate, had already fainted on the spot and was unconscious.

Wu Xie looked at more flickering shadows in the darkness, and realized that he and the fat man were really going to be planted here this time.

The fat man gritted his teeth, clasped the crossbow arrow in his hand, and said in a low voice: "Innocent, I'll hit this ghost in the heart later, you hurry up and run, run as fast as you can." ”

Wu Xixin said what kind of stinky fart are you putting in the air, not to mention whether he can run out from the encirclement of hundreds of monkeys, just say that the black iron on the chest of the mandrill that glows with cold light in the fur is the natural armor, and it is impossible to shoot through it even if it is smoked with these small crossbow arrows in their hands.

However, before he could react, the fat man had already rushed up and fired the crossbow arrows first, and yelled, "Run!" ”

A few men who were frightened by the scene of mandrill cannibalism were awakened by this loud shout, and immediately picked up crossbow arrows and flew after the fat man, and the arrows flew sideways in the night sky.

However, the monkeys were even smarter than they had imagined, and the fat man's crossbow bolt struck the mandrill in the chest, and as expected, it was stopped, leaving only a small spark.

The other monkeys jumped and shuttled through the bushes quickly, and soon jumped out of the limited attack range of the crossbow arrows, and with the blocking of the branches, their attacks did not work at all, and the arrows were consumed a lot.

Two puffs of white gas erupted from the mandrill's wide nostrils, as if to express its disdain for the little humans below, and then raised its one-arm and let out a piercing scream, and the monkeys behind it immediately jumped for joy and rushed towards the camp.

Seeing that the crossbow arrows had no effect, the fat men had already drawn their machetes stuck in their waists and decided to fight to the death with the monkeys.

At this time, he saw more than a dozen big monkeys in front of him suddenly brake and stop, staring angrily behind them.

The fat man subconsciously turned around, and saw Wu Xie carrying the monkey mother-in-law who was chained to the tent and sleeping unconsciously, and the knife in his hand was on the neck of the monkey mother-in-law.

Everyone was overjoyed when they saw this, and immediately withdrew to Wu Xie's side.

The mandrill gurgled in its throat and made a few strange sounds, as if anxiously asking.

Granny Monkey raised her head excitedly and wanted to respond, but Wu Xie pressed the blade tighter and whispered in its ear: "I know you can understand people's words, let your monkeys retreat immediately, and also, throw back my arm, otherwise I will send you to Hades immediately." ”

Granny Monkey sensed Wu Xie's undisguised killing intent towards it, and her desire to survive forced it to immediately let out a few baby-like cries at the mandrill standing on the tree.

Shanxiao stared at Wu Xie coldly, as if he wanted to remember his face, and then dropped the gnawed arm in his hand, whining in his mouth, while raising his separate hand, raised his index finger and pointed at the monkey mother-in-law, and then lowered his wrist and swiped sideways in front of his abdomen from right to left, and then rowed back, but when he drew back, its five fingers stretched out.

The fat man looked confused and beeped quietly, "What do you mean by this big black girl?" Oh, did it tell Granny Monkey to hurry over, or else it would have to say goodbye? ”

Wu Xie's face was a little strange at the moment, he stared at the mandrill with some uncertainty, and saw that it impatiently repeated Fang Cai's gesture again, and followed behind with a posture of covering the root of his ears.

Only then did he come back to his senses and said to the fat man: "It said exchange, let us release the monkey mother-in-law, and they will immediately retreat." ”

The fat man frowned and wondered, "How do you know?"

Wu Xie himself felt very unbelievable, "It's playing sign language to us." ”

"What?" The fat man was taken aback, stared at the mandrill a few times, and had a hellish expression, "The wild monkeys in the mountains have kept pace with the times these years?" ”

Wu Xie had a vague guess in his heart, he handed the monkey mother-in-law in his hand to the fat man to look at, and then alternately signed to the mandrill, "I don't believe you." ”

The mandrill let out a breath of white air angrily, and waved back with one hand, and the monkeys immediately retreated obediently, and the leaves rubbed against each other to make a terrifying brushing sound, and in an instant, all the monkeys on the surrounding trees disappeared cleanly.

Immediately, Shanxiao issued an ultimatum to Wu Xie, warning him to release Granny Monkey immediately, and that he could not blame the humans for injuring his own men.

Wu Xie already had an idea in his heart, made an OK gesture, and then said to the fat man, "Let it go." ”

The fat man disagreed, "No, this is the only trump card in our hands, in case it is released, those monkeys will make a comeback, and our brothers will have to explain here today." ”

Wu Xie took out a small remote control from his coat pocket, and said to the fat man, and at the same time to the monkey mother-in-law, "At dinner, I put a miniature time bomb left for me by a wooden fish in the bowl of mutton I gave me, and it was eaten by the monkey mother-in-law. ”

"As long as they dare to come, I will press the remote control, and any living and dead thing within a radius of ten meters will be blown to pieces."

Wu Xie admits that he is gambling on how much the sign-language mandrill knows about humans, and the source of the sign language it is talking to.

When the mandrill heard what he had just said, he immediately gestured more anxiously, urging the other party to exchange immediately.

Wu Xie nodded, and the fat man pushed Granny Monkey out, and at the same time took out a pistol from the back belt and aimed at the back of Granny Monkey's head.

Granny Monkey staggered to the bottom of the tree, and the mandrill completely ignored the human weapon aimed at it, turned over and hooked the trunk of the tree with its hind legs and hung upside down, grabbed Granny Monkey and flipped back, jumping and turning between the trees without looking back, and the figure disappeared into the dense canopy in an instant.

At the same time, the canopy of the trees shook violently, and one monkey after another took shape and left behind the mandrill.

Everyone was vigilant for half an hour, and after confirming that there were no more monkeys around, the tight strings relaxed.

Thank you [Zhang Qijun - word in the wild] for the reward of the big guy, more than heart.
