Chapter 32: Adventures in the Underground Palace
But it was said that the cave of the mandrill was very large, and Zhan Yue only felt that he had been carried away for a long time, and just when he was thinking about it, a feeling of palpitations came, which was exactly the same as when he saw the statue of the goddess. But as the two monsters lifted him away, the feeling soon weakened.
"Contract? Is there my contract in this mandrill's cave? Zhan Yue was very excited, this is really fate, and I can't stop it.
"Don't you already have two contracts? And you also sensed a contract in the castle, how can you still sense a contract? "Tongming Goddess has seen the contractor of the double contract, but she has never seen any of the three contractors, the legend has that existence in ancient times, like Zhanyue, who may be a contractor of four contracts, she has never heard of, the legend of three is the limit of the contract, but obviously Zhanyue broke this limit.
When Zhan Yue first arrived in this realm, the nine divine patterns left separately, and Zhan Yue didn't know where they all fled, maybe these nine divine patterns corresponded to nine kinds of contract objects?
"It's finally here, let's lock him up in your house first, and wait for the king's birthday as a birthday gift to the king." A voice came. Zhan Yue had been tied hand and foot at the moment, gagged his mouth, and then threw him under the bed in a small room, hating Zhan Yue's teeth, "These two pigs, wait for Lao Tzu." ”
——————
The Mandrill Cave Mansion was not built by the Mandrill, it was originally an underground palace, but it was discovered and occupied by the Mandrill. It's so hidden that it hasn't been discovered by humans for thousands of years. At this moment, the huge underground palace is very busy, and the mandrill people who look similar to Jingding Dong are decorating the underground palace, especially the central hall is even brighter, and the hall is full of flower pots around it. The pots are filled with flowers that emit a variety of lights, especially the ones that emit white light, which are the main source of light in the underworld.
At the top of the hall is a large white stone tied to it, like a spotlight above the stage, which illuminates a large stone chair below, naturally becoming the center of the hall.
"We invite our most wise and martial king to take a seat!" A high-pitched voice rang out.
Then a chubby figure approached, much larger than the other mandrills, with the same tawny skin, large eyes on a disc face, a long protruding nose, and pointed ears. He was wrapped in a golden hide, with a golden crown on his head, and a white orb the size of an apple in his hand.
"Who prepared this?" King Mandrill snorted and pointed to the bright white light stone above his head.
"It's me." A short, thin mandrill stood up with a flattering smile on his face.
Snorted and slapped him away, and said angrily: "MLGBZ, it makes my eyes hurt." You can't be smarter one by one. ”
"It's over, the king doesn't seem to be in a good mood today." The crowd said, even though today is the king's birthday.
"If you live a long life, you will lose a year after one time, and my cultivation will not grow at all, what is better!" Snorting and saying that celebrating his birthday can only mean that he is one year older.
The crowd was silent, and the scene was eerily silent, when suddenly the cry of a baby broke the silence.
"Give me the doll." Purr commanded.
Then a female mandrill handed the baby in her arms to Purr, she was very tall, but it was really not in human aesthetics, but these mandrills were very envious of the female mandrill, she was the beauty of the mandrill tribe, the queen of the king.
"Little Ancestor, what's wrong with you?" Snoring and coaxing the baby, this is a descendant that he has so hard to have. He personally coaxed the child, and then said to everyone: "Let's start, I don't know about you yet, you just want to take advantage of my birthday to have a good meal, and they are happier than Lao Tzu." ”
After snoring, one by one the mandrills sat down in their places, plates of roasted meat and wild fruits were served, and there was a jar of fine wine, the amount of which was several times that of usual, and the king's birthday was the best time for them to eat, and they wished that the king would live every day.
"Congratulations on the king's birthday, this is a spirit plant I found, and I specially gave it to the king as a gift." A mandrill stood up and opened a wooden box, which was instantly filled with fragrance, and a purple flower lay inside.
"Tranquility? Take it. Snorr's eyes lit up.
The mandrill sent the wooden box over, and Purr took out the flower and placed it on the baby in his arms, and the baby fell asleep soon after. "With this thing, this little ancestor can be quiet at night. You've done a good job, and you'll get a goblin fruit. ”
Hearing this, everyone showed extremely envious eyes, the goblin fruit can improve the cultivation of the mandrill clan and improve the physique, and no one can not desire.
"King, how about you take my gift?" Another mandrill stepped forward and pulled out a piece of whitened iron from his bosom.
"Earthfire Iron Spirit? Yes, yes, it can improve the toughness of my weapons. Reward! Purr was very satisfied with this gift.
"My lord, my king, what do you think of me?" Another mandrill was an excited gift, and it was a delicate jade wine glass.
"This is a human craft? You went to a human town to steal it? Don't be bold and don't put my words in your ears! Snorr looked at the glass and scolded.
"No... No, I dug it in the mountains, and there was a pile of rotting wood next to the glass. The mandrill explained, it was okay not to explain, and after the explanation, he almost fainted.
"Did you go digging a grave? Give me something from a dead man? Damn it. Hey, forget it, with your IQ, how can you not be stupid, I'll leave you to clean up after the banquet tonight. Snort was speechless.
This person's gifts after that are getting worse and worse, and even some colored mushrooms are sent over, and he sighs when he sees it. As the king of mandrills, his wisdom is far from being comparable to other mandrills, and he belongs to the crowd.
Finally, it was time for Ding Ding and Dong Dong, and together they carried a burlap bag.
"My lord, the two of us have a great gift." The two excitedly opened the sackcloth bag, and Zhanyue got out of the pocket, and her hands and feet were tied with hemp rope. Looking at the group of mandrills looking at themselves dumbfounded, the meat legs in some people's hands fell directly to the ground, and some people forgot to stop when they were full of alcohol.
The king of mandrills slapped the table violently, his eyes filled with anger, "You two are looking for death, what are you bringing a human to do?" We don't eat people, you guys are really angry with me! If you dare to disobey the ancestral teachings, come to me, throw these two fools into the pond and feed the fish! ”
The two of them hurriedly knelt on the ground and explained: "The king is angry, the king is angry, this person is not an ordinary person, he recognizes... He recognized the words on the sign. ”
"What's on the sign?" King Mandrill asked, confused.
"That's it," the two took out the wooden sign, "isn't the king looking for someone who recognizes it?" ”
When the king saw the wooden sign, he was even more confused, "How do you know?" ”
"Uh... The king once got drunk, talked in his dreams, and scolded the ancestor for not being a thing, not only not allowing the mandrill to come into contact with humans, but also letting the mandrill find someone who knew the ancient characters, which was simply a contradiction and difficult for a strong man. Dangdang said truthfully.
The king of the mandrill blushed, and his words of scolding the ancestors were heard, these two things are really stupid and hopeless, can this kind of thing be said in public?
But it is said that Zhan Yue is looking around at the moment, this is not like an ordinary cave, the walls are regular, the space is spacious, and the stone pillars support the entire space, looking at this technological means, it is more like the human race, and this place is more like an underground palace.
"Boy, do they know this kind of writing?" The king of mandrills brought the two wooden plaques to Zhanyue's eyes. "What do these two wooden signs say? If it's wrong, I'm sorry. ”
"Although the strength of this mandrill king is not as strong as the spirit god, I feel that he is even more powerful than the city lord of Rising Sun City, you should pay attention and try not to conflict." The goddess of Tongming reminded.
"More powerful than the city lord?!" Zhan Yue was taken aback, looking at this unattractive mandrill king, he was just a lap bigger than Ding Dingdong, was he really so powerful?
"Back to the king, one of these two wooden signs says 'barbecue', and the other says 'small fire'." Zhan Yue said truthfully, the more he proves his worth in front of him, the better his situation will be.
The king of mandrills stood up excitedly and handed the baby in his arms to the woman beside him. He walked up to Zhan Yue and looked at it carefully, "It's just a weak person in the Spirit Realm, he actually understands so much, isn't it a guess?" ”
The king smiled, can you guess this? I only have some impressions, but I don't guarantee that all of them will be recognized. Zhan Yue replied.
Seeing that Zhan Yue was so calm, the king of mandrill gave a thumbs up, "You are not afraid at all, you are really bold, if ordinary humans were afraid, they would have been scared a long time ago." Then, the king of mandrill took out a page out of thin air, and he actually had a magic weapon for storage.
"What is written on this piece of paper?" The king asked, he didn't know the words, but he knew what was written on the paper.
Zhan Yue soon found out that the words on the wooden plaque came from this piece of paper, and after reading the words with difficulty, plus his own guesses, Zhan Yue roughly understood what it was.
"Back to the king, this piece of paper records a recipe, which is a kind of barbecue practice." Zhan Yue replied.
When the king heard this, his whole body trembled with excitement, "Quick, hurry up and untie this gentleman." Damn, how can you treat Mr. like this. Forget it, I'll come in person. ”
The king of mandrills personally untied Zhan Yue from his shackles. Zhanyue himself didn't expect that what he had learned from his Ph.D. would be useful here, which was really bizarre.
