Chapter 63: The Spirit Ape Appears
"Saruyama?"
Yang Ji was surprised.
"Hmm. Most of the things that the apes stole were buried there. But there is a great danger in going in there. I really don't recommend you go to that kind of place for a sword. β
Senior Sister Lan shook her head and said, as if she had some regret saying this place: "In short, that place is very dangerous. It's better not to go. β
"Senior Sister Lan, you're too alarmist, aren't you?
Duan Gang disagreed.
"It's a spirit ape, not a monkey. β
Senior Sister Lan said with some anger.
"Senior Sister Lan, you better tell me what's going on. β
Yang Ji opened his mouth, his eyes revealing a certain will.
"Hey, Yang Ji, it's not that I'm alarmist. Ape Mountain is a place where spirit apes come in, unlike spirit apes who come to our mountains alone to steal things. There are a large number of apes there, and they all move in groups. Moreover, I don't know which generation the Dao started from, these spirit apes have seen us practice too much, and they have actually learned martial arts. β
Senior Sister Lan said.
"Ahh
Hearing that the spirit ape could also martial arts, Yang Ji finally showed a shocked look. A spirit ape with strong strength and wisdom is not afraid, but a group of spirit apes with infinite strength and martial arts skills are completely different.
"Isn't that almost the same as a martial pet?"
Duan Gang was surprised. And don't say anything "alarmist" anymore.
The advantage of "martial arts" lies in "martial arts", but if even the spirit ape can "martial arts", then this advantage no longer exists.
"It's similar to a martial pet. But the apes are unruly, wild and untamable, and have their own race. It's not easy to tame at all. The spirit apes in the sect don't need to be afraid, but the spirit apes on the ape mountain ...... , although it is not explicitly stated in the sect. But privately, everyone treats that place as a forbidden place. Even some senior brothers were reluctant to go near that kind of place. β
Senior Sister Lan said with a worried face.
Not long after Yang Ji and Duan Gang, two "newcomers", went up the mountain, they knew that the things of the Tao were limited. But she has been in the faction for many years, and there is no one who doesn't know the depths of the road. But looking at the situation in front of him, I'm afraid I can't convince Yang Ji.
"I see. β
Yang Ji closed his eyes, one after another. Listen to Senior Sister Lan's narration. He also somewhat understood that these "spirit apes" were not as simple as he imagined.
But it won't be long before the time of the "Imperial Decree". Without the "Blood Qi Sword", he can't perform the mastery of the "Immortal Back Sword", he is equivalent to missing a big arm to help, and it will be difficult to encounter things in the future.
It is reasonable to say that the "Blood Qi Sword" must come back.
"Senior Sister Lan. β
Yang Ji raised his head and opened his eyes:
"I heard you just said that there are often disciples in the sect who lose things. Let's put it this way. These apes shouldn't just come once or twice. There should be a way to find them, right?"
Yang Ji's meaning, Senior Sister Lan immediately knew that someone in the Dao Sect had lost something. Then you can break through from here, find out the rules of these apes' activities, and catch them.
However, Senior Sister Lan's reaction was beyond his expectations.
"Hey!"
Hearing Yang Ji's inquiry, Senior Sister Lan sighed in her heart, knowing that no matter how she did, she couldn't change Yang Ji's mind.
"There's no need to be so troublesome. β
Senior Sister Lan hesitated for a moment, but still said:
"Spirit apes usually only visit a place once. However, some disciples will also be patronized several times in a row. You just said that you lost a few scriptures, and it took all the wolf pens. It is also a rare occurrence that the room is also splashed with ink everywhere. Because the ape usually takes something and leaves. - I have a feeling that it will come back. β
As soon as this statement came out. Yang Ji and Duan Gang's eyes lit up.
If you can catch the "spirit ape" who "committed the crime", then it won't be too difficult to find the blood qi sword.
"It would be great if that were the case. Senior Sister Lan, thank you. β
Yang Ji Zhengse.
"Yang Ji, these guys are actually just curious and like to play. Promise me if you catch it. Don't kill it, okay?"
Senior Sister Lan couldn't bear to say.
"Hehe, don't worry. β
Yang Ji flicked his sleeves lightly and said with a smile: "I just want to retrieve the lost 'Blood Qi Sword', and I don't have to kill it." As for the lost scriptures, I have read them all. It doesn't matter at all. β
Senior Sister Lan breathed a sigh of relief, and then left Yang Ji's residence. Girls are always kind-hearted and compassionate. This is true even for animals, not to mention the "spirit ape" with spirituality.
After Senior Sister Lan left, Yang Ji began to think carefully about strategies to capture the "spirit ape" that stole the "blood qi sword". In the next few days, Yang Ji deliberately increased the time he spent outside.
Duan Gang also deliberately cooperated and went to other places to practice. However, the eyes of both men were wary of the front and rear windows and gates of the palace.
Unexpectedly, however, for the next few days, the palace was silent, and there was no noise at all. The "spirit ape" didn't seem to be ready to return here at all.
"What's going on? Could it be that Senior Sister Lan's guess is wrong. This spirit ape never thought of coming here again?"
In the room, Yang Ji frowned and looked pensive.
If that's the case, it's going to be a lot of trouble. If he can't catch the "spirit ape" that caused the accident, Yang Ji can't follow the vine and find out his "blood and qi sword", so he can only enter the ape mountain.
But if "Ape Mountain" was really so easy to find, there wouldn't be so many disciples who couldn't find their things after losing them. Senior Sister Lan wouldn't have been so deliberately admonishing herself.
"You can't give up the child and can't trap the wolf!"
Yang Ji had one after another in his mind, suddenly gritted his teeth, and simply untied the "Hundred Refining Long Sword" on his body, and hung it on the wall as before.
"That's not enough. β
Yang Ji's heart moved, and he found Zhang Xiong and them. As soon as they talked about it, Zhang Xiong and the others were also happy, and after a while, they found a set of wolf pens for Yang Ji, as well as ink strips.
Yang Ji hung the wolf pen on the pen holder, and ground the ink strip again, and everything returned to the way it was before, as if nothing had happened.
"If that doesn't entice it to take the bait. Then perhaps, it will not come at all. Or, Senior Sister Lan is simply wrong. All of this was done by the disciples in the sect. It's made like this, just to disguise it as a spirit ape. Let me draw my eyes to the spirit ape. β
At the desk. After Yang Ji arranged everything, his eyes were bright, and he secretly thought in his heart.
Regarding Senior Sister Lan's words, Yang Ji was also skeptical, after all, he had never seen a "spirit ape". Senior Sister Lan said. He had no way of verifying.
Moreover, it is not impossible to lead one's thinking to the "spirit ape" for the sake of human beings.
Yang Ji glanced out the window, the sound on Tieguan Mountain was much quieter, and the sky was dark. Before you know it, it's evening.
"Everything is ready, only the east wind is owed. Wait until tomorrow to draw it to the hook. β
Yang Ji said secretly in his heart.
For a few days, he revolved around the "spirit ape", and unconsciously Yang Ji also felt a little tired, and he was lying down in a daze. Take a nap.
In a vague way, Yang Ji suddenly heard a cold snake sizzle in his ears:
"Sizzleββ"
With this sound, a cold cold wave swept in, enveloping half of Yang Ji's body. Startled by this, Yang Ji suddenly woke up:
"It's Xiao Jiββ"
Almost at the same time, a "pop" came from the window, and something seemed to be speeding away in the darkness.
In a trance, an electric light flashed through his mind. Yang Ji's whole body was excited, and he suddenly came to his senses. Got something.
"It's a spirit ape!"
Between the electric light and the fire, there is no time to think about it. Yang Ji quickly copied a handful on the inkstone, and then his body flashed and threw himself out of the window.
In the darkness, with the help of the torches on the mountain, a blurred black shadow could be clearly seen. I was speeding down the mountain trail.
"It's really a spirit ape!"
Yang Ji's last trace of sleepiness disappeared in an instant. Senior Sister Lan was right, it was really the spirit ape who broke into his room and snatched the blood qi sword.
When Yang Ji was vague, he also heard a little voice. But I didn't take it to heart, thinking it was another junior disciple in the faction. But the spirit ape can hide it from himself. But he can't hide "Xiao Ji".
"Huh!"
Yang Ji was a little under his feet, and his body was light as if he had no weight, but the speed was incredibly fast, like a bolt of lightning towards the direction of the spirit ape's escape.
"Swallows pierce the clouds", after Yang Ji practiced this light skill, the entire speed increased by a cut. Like a light swallow, it dragged a straight line in the void and flew towards the black shadow in front of it.
His speed was extremely fast, and with a slight touch under his feet on the pagoda, pool, railing, copper furnace, and protruding rocks, the speed immediately surged again, and the lightness was incredible.
This is the speed of the "swallow through the clouds", every point can be used as a tool, and it can be extremely fast in any terrain.
"What a speed!"
After a while, Yang Ji finally couldn't help but be surprised.
I thought I was fast enough that I should be able to catch up with it soon. But the facts surprised Yang Ji. This spirit ape jumped vertically and vertically, jumping more than ten zhang away every time, and its movements were light and fast, not much slower than Yang Ji.
"How can it be so fast!"
Yang Ji's eyes widened, if not for his own eyes. Yang Ji couldn't believe that these spirit apes were so agile.
And unlike the way humans move forward, these guys are completely jumping forward, almost in their own right.
"No wonder they can't be caught in the mountains. These guys are running away so fast, where can they be caught!"
Yang Ji was surprised, his heart moved, and he accelerated his speed to catch up.
"Goo-goo-goo...... Whewββ"
The spirit ape was chased by Yang Ji in a hurry, screamed in surprise, and ran forward frantically.
"Whew!"
In the dark night, the mountain wind howled, and the spirit ape kicked its legs and suddenly jumped into the darkness. It was actually at this time that he ran out of the range of Iron Crown Mountain.
"Oops, this is trouble!"
Yang Ji frowned slightly, without the light of the copper furnace and lamps on the Iron Crown Mountain, there were dark mountains around, and it was difficult to chase this spirit ape.
"Whew!"
didn't have time to think about it, his eyes were dark, and Yang Ji had already chased after him. The peaks on both sides are hideous, as if giant beasts are squatting there. The wind whistled in his ears, and he was in the distance in an instant.
The spirit ape in front of him swooped in, swooping down among the rocks, trees, and peaks, shuttling back and forth. It's extremely fast, and it's very familiar with its surroundings, so it's completely familiar with the road.
On the other hand, Yang Ji was immediately affected a lot. He rarely left the Iron Crown Mountain, and the only trip was to the town below the mountain. The surrounding peaks are not there at all.
This time, he followed the spirit ape and pounced on it, and immediately it was a deep foot and a shallow foot. The surrounding shrubs, thorns, ancient trees, and mountains and forests all turned into black shadows, adding a lot of trouble to Yang Ji. (To be continued......)
