The old ape did not hesitate, and after crawling out of the burrow, he led us towards the mouth of the cave under the cliff.

Seeing that the old ape seemed to have no ill will towards us along the way, so everyone quietly began to follow the old ape forward, walking and walking, I began to feel that something was wrong, and I felt a burst of 'click' sound from under my feet, and I could clearly feel that my feet were like stepping on something strange, and that feeling was by no means stepping on a stone.

Out of curiosity, I pulled open the waist-high dead grass and looked into the ground by the moonlight, and suddenly gasped in fright, and then realized that I was stepping on a snow-white dry bone under my feet......

As I walked forward, I kept peeling open the grass and looked down, and I saw that there were corpses all over the ravine, some of which were completely rotten to the point of skeletons, and some of which were moldy and rotten......

But it is not difficult to make out that these dry bones are not human, but more like monkeys.

But why are there so many dead monkeys in the ravine?

I was suspicious, and couldn't help whispering to Bai Wei beside me: "Bai Wei, this ravine is full of monkey bones, could it be that there is something wrong with this old ape?" It's better to be careful, and it's better not to go into the hole with it. ”

"You must enter the hole, you look carefully."

As I spoke, I saw Bai Wei spread out her palms, and I noticed that the light purple glimmer floating out of the Qixia Xiaoyu was spreading along the gaps in the barren grass on the ground to the cave that the old ape led us to......

"Xiaofei is in there?"

I couldn't help but exclaim, and Bai Wei nodded.

At this moment, the voice of the old ape came from our heads again—

"Don't be afraid, I never hurt my own children and grandchildren, who were slaughtered to protect me......"

"Children and grandchildren? Are you referring to the bones on the ground? I couldn't help but ask.

In his mind, the old ape sighed, and continued: "The things in this mountain are not as simple as you imagined, you can rest assured that you can come in with me, and this matter will come from the long road......"

As he spoke, the old ape turned around and walked into the cave first, and heard it say so, so Bai Wei didn't think much about it, and followed the old ape with the courage to burrow into the black cave.

By the light of the flashlight, we went about 20 meters along the winding tunnel, and vaguely saw a little fire behind the corner in front of the cave, as we got closer and closer, the firelight became brighter and brighter, it was actually a bonfire lit in the depths of the cave, and in the swaying firelight, there was also a figure sitting by the bonfire to roast the fire, and it was Xiaofei who looked closely.

"Little loach!"

Seeing that Xiao Fei was really in the cave, Bai Wei was suddenly very excited, shouted, and hurriedly ran towards Xiao Fei.

"Sister Bai Wei! You're finally here! ”

Looking at Xiaofei again, he had already noticed us, stood up and ran over to meet Bai Wei, ran to Bai Wei and ran forward, hugged Bai Wei tightly, and got into Bai Wei's arms.

I heard Xiaofei hug Bai Wei tightly and choked up: "Sister Bai Wei, I'm scared to death!" I thought I'd never see you again! ”

"Don't be afraid, isn't that what you'll see?"

Bai Wei hugged Xiao Fei tightly to comfort her, and then asked, "Xiao Fei, how did you get here?" ”

Hearing this, Xiao Fei raised his hand to the old ape who was squatting aside and smiled slightly, and choked up and said, "It was those monkeys that caught me in......

"Its monkeys?"

Bai Wei turned her head, looked at the old ape with a puzzled face, and asked puzzledly: "Who are you sacred, and are you friend or foe?" ”

This is not only the question in Bai Wei's heart now, but also something that I can't figure out in my heart.

If the old ape was an enemy, he rescued us from the siege of the red-eyed monkeys; And if it is said that it is a friend, why did he secretly command those ordinary monkeys to steal our magic weapons, distract us, and even drag Xiaofei away?

As soon as we heard Bai Wei's question, we saw the old ape stroked his snow-white beard, and the old voice sounded from our heads again-

"You can rest assured, although we have never been masked, but now in this situation, we are already grasshoppers on a rope, and we are naturally friends rather than enemies......

"Since you are not an enemy, why do you want to catch Xiaofei? And command those monkeys to steal our magic weapons? I couldn't help but ask.

Look at the old ape again, listen to my question, and as soon as he jumps into the cave, he walks to the campfire, and raises his hand to the corner on the side of the cave, and the hoarse voice comes again—

"Don't worry, aren't all your things there, I haven't touched any of them, and now I'm going to give them back to you as they are......"

I looked in the direction of the old ape's finger, and sure enough, there were a large pile of various ritual artifacts piled up in the corner of the cave, including Bai Wei's ritual bag, peach sticks, compasses, as well as the box and a few sacrificial vessels where I held the stammering immortal sacrifice vessels.

I hurriedly ran over to check the magic weapon, only to hear the old ape say again: "I can't hide it, I have been practicing in this forest for a long time, if you count it, the monkeys in the mountains within a radius of 100 miles are all my descendants, but unfortunately some descendants are confused by the devil, and now they have become good and evil, but no matter what, it is a bloodline of my old ape family, and I can't watch you all kill them......"

As soon as the old ape's voice fell, he saw Bai Wei's eyes roll, snorted coldly, and answered: "I understand, you are afraid that we will hurt those red-eyed monkeys with magic weapons, right?" ”

"That's right," replied the old ape...... "As soon as you entered the forest, I saw that you were all strange people with unique skills, and I knew that those children and grandchildren would not be able to bargain in front of you, but in a moment of urgency, I really had no time to tell you in detail about the matter, and I would inevitably injure the innocent and cause a catastrophe, so I had no choice but to take away your magic weapons first, so as not to accidentally injure the lives of my children and grandchildren." And as for this little girl......"

The old ape said and looked at Xiao Fei kindly, and then said: "I have already seen that among you, except for Chen Yuejin is the person in charge and his crime is unforgivable, this little girl should be the shallowest among the few, and it is naturally the most difficult to parry my children and grandchildren, and I am also for her good, so I ordered a few children and grandchildren to bring her here to protect her first, so as not to take care of her for a while and harm this little girl's life......"

"You've always been thoughtful." Bai Wei snorted coldly again.

As soon as he finished saying this, he heard the old ape laugh, and then said: "Of course, things are not only so simple, but there is indeed another reason...... Little girl, I ordered my children and grandchildren to drag you into the cave, and you were so afraid that you didn't want to talk to me, so I didn't ask, and now that your people have arrived, it's time for me to ask you...... Are you surnamed Song? ”

The old ape suddenly asked, and Xiaofei couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and nodded silently with his mouth closed in a panic.

She nodded, and the old ape laughed again, stroked his beard, and stared at Xiao Fei with kind eyes: "It seems that I should have guessed correctly, as early as when you entered this forest, I saw the jade bracelet on your hand at a glance, and I already guessed your identity." Your mother's name is Zhang Chuhong, who was the imperial history of the Zuodu of the Thirteen Imperial History Platforms of Tianzhu Mansion back then, and your father's name is Song Xiang, and he is the descendant of Song Shufang, the ancestor of the Yuan Sect a hundred years ago. ”

When the old ape said this, not only Xiao Fei was stunned, but even Bai Wei was all shocked......

Speaking of which, we all know about what it said earlier, Bai Wei's senior sister 'Coral Envoy' Zhang Chuhong did serve as the Zuodu Imperial History of the Thirteen Imperial History Platforms before Bai Long, and Song Yufei's father is indeed named Song Xiang, but we have only done a brief understanding of Song Xiang, and we have never heard of it, he is actually the descendant of Song Shufang?

I am no stranger to this Song Shufang, and the name has long been like thunder.

In order to save the common people, Song Shufang, who was the head of the Yin Yang Dao Source Sect at the time, led his disciples to run around to kill demons and eliminate demons. Unexpectedly, the exorcism world did not know what it meant to work together, but instead intrigued and restrained each other, seeing that the source sect was active, so the heavenly master Dao Fu Sanshan, who had regarded the Yin and Yang family as 'heretic scum' since ancient times, actually took advantage of the fire to rob and led the crowd to encircle and suppress the disciples of the source sect, which finally caused the tragic situation of the 'two ways of fighting' that year, and also led to the casualties of hundreds of disciples of the source sect, and the head of the sect Song Shufang died of martyrdom in the fierce battle, and the source sect has since disappeared in the world, and the incense has been cut off since then.

And Song Shufang had a good relationship with Yuan in his early years, and it was precisely because of the commission when Song Shufang died later that Yuan decided to take the risk of preaching for his friends, and in the war after more than ten years, he carefully selected seven orphans, including the old man Qixia, Wu Daozu, and Li Hongsleeve, to be accepted as disciples, and renewed the incense that the Yin and Yang Family Source Sect had broken.

In addition to the history I know, what is even more surprising is that the ancestor Song Shufang also had a friendship with Guo Shouzhen, the patriarch of Longmen Dao, who escaped from the world in Jiuding Iron Brake Mountain, and it was Song Shufang who sent the strange corpse that could 'speak' to the Nine Peaks Iron Brake Mountain to be kept by Guo Daochang.

In the dark, this Song Shufang is like a key, and like a hidden line, not only opening one secret after another, but also connecting all the secrets with us, inseparable, just waiting for us to follow the line he left behind, and open these secrets one by one......
