Chapter 17: Finally Nine Suns
Yang Xiao finally got out of the cave, looking at the valley in front of him, he couldn't care about his exhaustion, and ran out excitedly for a long time.
Looking around, I saw that the green valley was surrounded by high mountains, and it seemed that no one had ever visited it since ancient times. The snow-capped peaks on all sides are cloudy, steep and steep, and it is impossible to climb in and out.
It must be because it is surrounded by high mountains, so cold winds cannot invade, but the sunlight can shine on the earth, so it has created an excellent constant temperature environment. In such an environment, there is no human destruction, so the plants are luxuriant and abnormal.
Yang Xiao is full of like, see that there are seven or eight wild goats on the grass with their heads down to eat, and they are not surprised to see him, more than ten monkeys on the trees jump and frolic with each other, thinking that all kinds of animals that are carnivorous can not enter this valley, only apes and goats are very good at rock climbing, flexible animals, can enter this place to survive here.
Yang Xiao went west for more than two miles, only to see a big waterfall on the cliff crashing down, it was expected to be made of snow melting, and it was like a big jade dragon under the sun, which was extremely magnificent.
The waterfall cascades into a deep pool of clear turquoise, but the pool is not full, so there is another way to drain the water.
Yang Xiao watched for a long time, and when he lowered his head, he saw that his hands and feet were covered with moss and sludge, and he was full of exhaustion and stinky sweat, so he approached the edge of the pool, took off his shoes and socks, and stretched out his feet to wash in the pool water. After washing for a while, I felt refreshed and exhausted, but I was hungry in my stomach.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound, and a big white fish jumped up in the pool, more than a foot long, Yang Xiao hurriedly reached out to catch it, although it touched the body of the fish, but it slipped away.
He leaned over the edge of the pond and looked intently, only to see more than a dozen big white fish swimming back and forth in the turquoise water. He also learned the skill of fishing in the army, so he broke two hard branches, one end was sharp, and waited quietly by the pool, until another big white fish swam up to the surface of the water, stabbed down vigorously, and hit the body of the fish.
Yang Xiao took out the dagger, cut the belly of the fish, washed off the fish intestines, and then found some dead branches, took out the fire knife, flint, and velvet that he carried with him and made a fire, and roasted the fish. He had already prepared for a long-term stay here when he came out this time, so these supplies were also properly prepared.
Soon the fat and aroma overflowed, and the fish was cooked, and the mouth was smooth and delicious, as if I had never eaten such a delicious taste in my life. In a moment, Yang Xiao ate a big fish cleanly.
After eating, I saw that the sky was getting dark, and it was estimated that I would not be able to find the old white ape for a while. Besides, I have to stay here for a long time, and I can't sleep in the open every day. He was not in a hurry to find "Jiuyang Divine Skill", but first arranged his accommodation for tonight.
These wilderness survival skills. Yang Xiao had already mastered it all in his previous life, so he was not in a hurry. He broke off some branches under a large tree in the west and simply arranged them to make a tree house.
Then he buried the dry soil that had been dried in the place where the fire had just been lit and laid some dead grass and branches on it, and in this way, although it was simple, it could also shelter from the wind and rain.
After resting for a night, Yang Xiao began to search everywhere in the valley, hoping to find the traces of the old white ape.
But although the valley was secluded, it was also very large, so he searched for a long time but found nothing, so he had no choice but to turn around, come to the stream again, and walk towards the group of frolicking monkeys, thinking that he could make a good relationship with these monkeys, and let them take him to the old white ape.
But this group of monkeys has lived in the valley all day and has never seen outsiders, so as soon as they saw Yang Xiao approaching, they were immediately vigilant, and they chattered and roared at him. Some of the monkeys even threw stones and wild fruits at him.
Yang Xiao was also unwilling to forcibly clash with these monkeys, so he could only shake his head with a wry smile and retreat.
And so, two more days passed, and on this day he was digging by the stream to prepare some tools for making pots and pans.
Suddenly, I heard the squeaky and screaming of the monkeys, which was very urgent. He ran to the sound, and saw a little monkey fall to the ground under the mountain wall, and his hind foot was pressed by a stone, and he could not move, thinking that he had stumbled and fallen from the steep mountain wall.
Yang Xiao hurriedly moved the stone and pulled the monkey up, but the monkey's right leg had already broken and squeaked in pain.
Yang Xiao folded two sticks as splints, reconnected the leg bones for the monkey, and took out the wound medicine he carried with him to apply it to the wound.
Although Yang Xiao had learned the knowledge of health care in his previous life (this is the basic subject of the army, every soldier will learn), simple bandaging and fixation can still be done, fortunately it is only a bone injury, otherwise I am afraid that Yang Xiao will be helpless.
Maybe it was because the wound medicine he used was extremely good medicine, and after a day the monkey was able to jump, and the monkey actually knew how to be grateful, and the next day he picked a lot of fresh fruits and gave them to him, and after seven or eight days, the broken leg was really healed.
Early one morning, Yang Xiaowu fell asleep and did not wake up, when he suddenly felt a big furry hand gently caressing his face. He was taken aback, and hurriedly jumped up, only to see a large white ape crouching beside him, holding the little monkey that played with him every day. The little monkey squeaked and chirped, pointing to the belly of the great white ape.
Yang Xiao smelled a putrid smell, and saw that the white monkey had pus and blood on his stomach and a big sore, so he smiled and said: "Okay, good! You really know how to repay your kindness, and it will not be in vain for my hard work to save you, good monkey!"
The big white ape stretched out his left hand, holding a fist-sized peach in his palm, and presented it respectfully. Yang Xiao saw that this peach was bright red and fat, and thought: "This is the Kunlun peach, which is also a strange thing in heaven and earth, and has the effect of increasing strength." ”
Yang Xiao smiled and said: "You also understand the world, don't worry, I will heal you"
Yang Xiao reached out to the white ape's belly and gently pinched it, and couldn't help but be surprised. It turned out that the sore on the white ape's abdomen was no more than an inch in diameter, but the hardness of the tentacles was ten times larger. Although he already knew about it, he didn't expect that this old white ape had such a sinister boil on his body, and if all the hard places were purulent and rotten, he was afraid that it would be incurable.
I don't know if I can save this old white ape. Although he didn't care about whether it lived or died, he could take out the oil paper bag by breaking open its abdomen, but this old white ape had lived for almost a hundred years. Such a strange beast with a spirit has been opened is really rare.
Moreover, this old white cloud is extremely human, and his eyes are full of wisdom when he looks at him. is so sophisticated, almost the same as a person, how can he bear to let him die.
So Yang Xiao said to the old white ape: "I really don't have much confidence in my medical skills, but I will try my best to treat you." ”
The old white ape understood what he meant, and just looked at him and nodded.
Yang Xiao immediately brushed aside the long hair on the ape's abdomen, and when he looked at the boils again, he was even more shocked, only to see a square bulge above the abdomen, sewn on all sides with needles and threads, obviously from human hands, after a little contemplation, he took out the scissors and daggers he carried with him and cleaned them with spirits, and slowly cut the sewn on the belly of the white ape.
The white ape was already extremely old and quite spiritual, and he knew that Yang Xiao had treated it, although he had severe pain in his abdomen, he forcibly held back and did not move. Yang Xiao cut the sutures on the right and upper ends, and then cut the abdominal skin that had been connected at an oblique angle, only to see that it had an oilcloth package hidden in its belly.
Although he knew that this was the "Jiuyang True Scripture", it was important to treat the old white ape at this time. Yang Xiao didn't open the package, put the oilcloth bag aside, took out the needle and thread he carried with him to sew up the white ape's abdominal muscles, applied wound medicine to the wound, and finally took out the white cloth and bandaged him.
After being busy for a long time, Fang Shi was ready, although the white ape was strong, he was also lying on the ground at this time, unable to move. Yang Xiao looked at it and knew that it should be fine at this time, just waiting for it to recover slowly.
Yang Xiao only had the time to wash away the blood stains on his hands and oilcloth, and when he opened the bag to see, it turned out to be four thin scriptures, but because the oilcloth was tightly wrapped, although it had been hidden in the ape's belly for a long time, the pages were still intact.
There were a few zigzag words written on the paper, he didn't know any of them, it should be Sanskrit, and when he opened it, he saw that the four books were full of these strange words, but between each line, they were full of Chinese characters in small letters.
Yang Xiao couldn't help but be overjoyed, these words must be the "Jiuyang True Scripture" that he had been thinking about for a long time!
