Chapter 4: The Monkey King
The night is as cool as water, and the stars are dotted.
By the stream, Ji Ruan sat by the campfire and carefully grilled the fish, beside him was the white cat who was elegantly cleaning himself, and the red-haired little Jingba was standing in the stream, with his mouth open, in a vain attempt to have a fish swim into his mouth.
"Whew-"
"Look at this, we will be able to go to Biluozong tomorrow, Xiaobai, thanks to you."
Picking up a grilled fish and blowing it, Ji Ruan handed it to the white cat, his tone was brisk,
If it weren't for Xiaobai, she really didn't know how she was going to get to Biluozong.
Xiaobai didn't pay attention to Ji Ruan, but just motioned to the other party to put the grilled fish on the lotus leaf in front of him and eat it elegantly.
Ji Ruan had long since adapted to Xiao Bai's cold appearance, and he was not disappointed, so he also picked up a grilled fish and ate it, and by the way, he watched Xiao Jingba clumsily catch fish in the water and eat it.
It's not that Ji Ruan is eccentric, it's mainly that Taotao doesn't like to eat cooked food, and loves the most back-to-basics taste.
It's just that the little guy is even stronger, and Ji Ruan wants to help catch a few fish, and the other party is not happy, so there is this scene.
But I also have to say that there are so many fish in a river, and it is indeed not smart, no, seeing that a fish is whirring, it is about to swim into Xiao Jingba's mouth.
"Hahahaha, fake, it's all fake!!"
But at this moment, a shout sounded like thunder on the other side of the river, startling not only the fish that were about to enter the mouth, but also a group of birds.
At the same time, a powerful coercion swept over from the opposite side.
"Woohoo!!"
Feeling the coercion coming quickly, Xiao Jingba's expression changed, and he hurriedly jumped from the river to Ji Ruan's side, and together with Xiao Bai, his body emitted different lights, canceling out the coercion, which did not hurt Ji Ruan.
"Fake! Swindler! Hahahaha! Swindler! ”
Just when Ji Ruan was wondering what was going on, a figure ran out of the opposite woods, running and jumping without stopping, and couldn't stop laughing strangely,
Looking at this scene, a picture uncontrollably appeared in Ji Ruan's mind-
The Monkey King was born......
But compared to Ji Ruan, Xiaobai's face changed greatly, and he hurriedly turned around and ran to Ji Ruan:
"Run, this man has gone mad!"
"Boom!"
However, before Xiaobai could turn into Bai Ze's appearance, a powerful coercion struck again, and slammed Xiaobai to the ground.
Feeling the coercion on his body, Xiaobai's face was solemn,
It's not good, the other party is actually a strong person in the half-step integration period, and there are very few in the entire immortal cultivation world, I didn't expect to meet it here, even if it is with Taotao, there is no chance of winning.
"Xiaobai!"
Seeing Xiaobai lying on the ground and unable to stand up, Ji Ruan was so anxious that he wanted to step forward to save people, but the corner of his skirt was bitten by Taotao.
But it was only a few breaths, and the "Monkey King" had already waded across the river and came to Ji Ruan's side.
Looking at the approaching "Monkey King", Taotao hurriedly jumped in front of Ji Ruan, baring his teeth and whimpering to intimidate the other party, and his small body did not flinch in the slightest.
"Liars, it's all fake!"
The "Monkey King" was going crazy, but when he saw Taotao's grinning appearance, he suddenly rushed over.
Seeing this, Ji Ruan just wanted to shout for Taotao to be careful, but he was shocked to find that he couldn't move, as if a pair of big hands had shackled him, not only could he not move, but he couldn't even make a sound.
Not only Ji Ruan, but Taotao was also pressed to the ground by strong coercion, and the "Monkey King" had already come to Taotao, only to see him reach out and grab the back of Taotao's neck and lift it up, tilt his chin up, and say angrily:
"Why, even a dog dares to look down on me now?!"
"Whew-"
Let out a helpless whimper, at this moment, Taotao really wanted to escape, God knows what it was like to look up and see a pair of big nostrils.
There was already a layer of cold sweat behind him, Ji Ruan stared at the "Monkey King" in front of him, he didn't expect to be reborn in a lifetime, and he had to give his life here before he could do anything.
Is it true that you can only be someone else's foil?
No, you can't!
But now that he is just a mortal, he has no power to fight back even Xiaobai and Taotao, what can he do?
A strong sense of despair lingered in his heart, making Ji Ruan feel suffocated.
Just when Ji Ruan was desperate, he saw that the "Monkey King" was stunned first, and then turned his head sharply to look at the bonfire...... Next to the grilled fish.
"Bang!"
Throwing Taotao to the ground, the next moment the "Monkey King" threw himself around the bonfire, picked up the grilled fish and ate it deliciously:
"Hmm~ It's so fragrant, it's delicious, hahahaha, it's delicious!"
It may be that the attention of the "Monkey King" is on the grilled fish, Ji Ruan felt that the shackles on his body were lightened a little, and he hurriedly looked at Taotao and asked in a low voice:
"Taotao, are you okay?"
"Woo~"
With a pitiful whimper, Taotao motioned to Ji Ruan not to worry about himself, but unfortunately it was now suppressed by coercion, otherwise it would have eaten this hateful human being!
Just when Ji Ruan wanted to ask something more, he saw that the "Monkey King" turned his head to look at him suddenly, which frightened Ji Ruan and quickly silenced him, and looked at the other party cautiously, for fear that his action would make the other party unhappy and send him away.
"Doll, did you bake this fish?"
To Ji Ruan's surprise, the "Monkey King" did not get angry, but raised the grilled fish in his hand that only had fish bones left and asked, and even it looked normal, which was completely different from Fang Cai's crazy appearance.
At the same time, Ji Ruan felt that the shackles on his body had also disappeared.
I didn't understand what the other party meant, but for the sake of safety, Ji Ruan still nodded:
"Yes, it's my ......"
"Okay, then you can bake a few more for Lao Tzu."
As he spoke, he saw the "Monkey King" wave his hand, and the river in front of him slammed upstream, and after the river fell, nearly ten live fish were left on the bank.
Seeing this, Ji Ruan didn't dare to act rashly, after all, Xiaobai and Taotao had not yet regained their freedom, she was a mortal, so naturally she would not be stupid enough to do something like a grasshopper shaking a tree.
So he obediently stepped forward, picked up the fish, came to the opposite side of the "Monkey King" and roasted it, while roasting, he carefully observed the other party's expression, as long as there was a little wrong, he ran quickly.
The right hand secretly wiped the jade pendant on his waist, and there was an extra low-key ring on his finger, which made Ji Ruan feel a lot more at ease.
The "Monkey King" didn't care about Ji Ruan's small actions, but continued to eat the remaining grilled fish, and didn't forget to praise it while eating:
"Well, it's delicious, it's delicious!"
But in the next second, his expression changed, and he threw the grilled fish into the fire, but fortunately, Ji Ruan kept paying attention to his movements, and hurriedly dodged backwards, so he was not injured.
"Liars, they're all liars!"
I don't know what stimulated me, the "Monkey King" began to shout again, tearing his hair frantically, as if he wanted to make himself bald,
Feeling Ji Ruan's gaze, he came to him with a big jump, with a hideous smile on his face:
"You're laughing at me too?!"
Looking at the face that was close at hand, Ji Ruan held his breath, only feeling that his heart was about to jump out.
