Chapter 44 Talking about wine
After a head grew out of thin air on the ape's headless corpse, the transparent state of the whole body as crystal faded in an instant, and changed back to the color of the body. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The recovered ape's eyes opened and slowly got up from the ground, but it was really resurrected, but it seemed to be extremely sluggish, and it looked like it had just recovered from a serious illness.
"Chen Gongzi, this monkey spirit can't be killed, this ...... What can I do about this?" Bai Wufang grabbed Chen Yi's left arm, and his voice trembled a little.
Although she is not afraid of heaven and earth, the scene in front of her is obviously beyond her cognition. What's more, this monkey spirit has already explained that others can leave, as long as she leaves one of herself, she immediately shuddered at the thought of getting along with this monkey spirit that can grow without a head in this valley in the future.
Chen Yi didn't speak, just stared at the ape in front of him with a flying knife in his hand. Seeing the other party's sluggish state, he guessed that this resurrection from the dead should be somewhat limited, and now the opponent's strength should be greatly reduced because of this resurrection.
But he himself is not much better, Fang Cai's knife "Killing Zen" that is enough to frighten the ghost is a killing move after the fusion of his spirit and spirit, after a knife shot, now his strength is also one in ten.
The ape looked at Chen Yi and Bai Wufang on the other side, a fluffy monkey face couldn't help but change his expression, and finally waved his front paws that changed back to normal weakly, and said in despair: "That's it, let's go!"
After that, he turned around and walked towards the woods, but his back looked indescribably desolate.
"Fellow Daoists stay!"
Chen Yi suddenly spoke, and Bai Wufang on the side didn't understand why he was still provoking this terrible monkey spirit, so he quietly pulled his arm hard.
The ape turned around, with some anger and wariness, and said, "I have promised to release the people, what are you going to do?"
Chen Yi put away the flying knife, waved his hand and said with a smile: "Don't misunderstand, I just think that there seems to be a hidden reason for Daoist friends to do such a thing." You and I don't know each other, I don't know if you'd like to have a few drinks with me and talk about your heart. ”
The ape was a little surprised, "You already know that I am a spirit, and you are willing to drink and chat with me?"
Chen Yi said leisurely: "I am about to go to the Pure Land Temple to become a monk, if I can't even achieve the equality of all living beings, how can I be worthy of stepping into the Buddha's door?"
The ape was stunned, and after a moment's pause, he said, "If you want to drink, just wait here for a while." Then a leap flew into the forest and disappeared.
Waiting for the ape to leave, Bai Wufang couldn't wait to ask Chen Yi why he still provoked the monkey spirit.
Chen Yi didn't explain, but only asked her to help move the sleeping girls scattered everywhere back to the thatched hut, now that it was getting late, the air was getting colder, so that they wouldn't suffer from the cold.
As soon as he had finished doing this, the ape came back with two large gourds. He casually threw a gourd to Chen Yi, and then sat cross-legged on the grass casually.
Chen Yi caught the gourd and sat down like an ape.
Bai Wufang was still a little frightened and hid behind Chen Yi.
Chen Yi pulled off the stopper of the gourd and smelled it, only to feel a strange aroma of fragrant wine, and couldn't help but praise: "Good wine!"
An extremely human smile appeared on the ape's face: "This is the monkey wine I snatched from a group of monkey monkey grandchildren, so naturally it won't be bad." ”
Chen Yi said with a smile: "I have heard the name of monkey wine for a long time, but unfortunately I have never seen it." Taoist friends treat guests with such fine wine, and they are the first to drink it as a respect!"
After that, he raised the gourd and drank it mouth-to-mouth.
Bai Wufang was anxious and angry behind him, and said in his heart: "This guy usually seems to be shrewd, but how can he be a drunkard." When you see the wine, you get carried away, aren't you afraid that the monkey spirit will do something in the wine?"
Seeing her look, the ape shook his head and sighed, "It's different after all......"
Immediately, under Bai Wufang's inexplicable gaze, he raised the gourd and drank it like Chen Yi.
A person and an ape each drank the small half gourd monkey wine in one go, and when they put down the gourd, their eyes were already confused.
"I was originally a white ape in the mountains, and since I was born, I have been proud of the mountains and forests, although it is muddy, but I am also carefree, until one day I ......"
After the ape put down the gourd, he didn't wait for Chen Yi to ask, and talked about a long past to himself.
When the white ape was wandering in the mountains, he accidentally broke into the cave forbidden by a previous monk, and by coincidence swallowed a pill to open his spiritual wisdom, and at the same time obtained a sword book left by the monk.
Since then, the white ape has been cultivating in the mountains according to the sword spectrum, and gradually practiced qi and embarked on the path of sword cultivation.
Suddenly, one day, the white ape was very quiet, and he left the cave to travel out of the mountain. At that time, it was in the Spring and Autumn Period, and the two countries of Wu and Vietnam in the south were vying for hegemony, killing people and shedding blood. The white ape naturally ignored these worldly disputes, and just walked all the way to Yuedi.
On this day, the white ape passed by a small village on the outskirts of Huiji, the capital of Yueguo, by night, and suddenly saw a girl who was only about ten years old wielding a green bamboo stick on a grass by the woods outside the village.
The white ape peeked at the side for a while, and saw that the girl's swordsmanship was not inferior to his own, and when he saw that he was happy, he also took a bamboo stick and jumped out to stab the girl.
At that time, the white ape had not yet mastered the art of transformation, and when it appeared, it was still in the form of an ape. But the girl was not afraid at all, and when she saw a white ape attacking with swordsmanship, she also danced a bamboo stick to fight back.
The two of them fought this fight, tumbling and rolling for hundreds of rounds before they stopped.
The white ape knew that he was a spirit, and fearing that the girl would be frightened, left without speaking, but only lingered in the nearby mountains and forests.
On the second night, the white ape couldn't help but go outside the village again, but saw that the girl was still practicing swords. The white ape was overjoyed, and stepped forward to compete with the girl again.
In this way, day after day, the white ape competed with the girl every night, and the two sides unconsciously exchanged the essence of their respective swordsmanship in the competition, and the swordsmanship cultivation was refined in the daily competition, and it was three years in a flash.
During these three years, the white ape also secretly went to see the girl during the day, and saw that she drove a flock of sheep to the wild every day to graze. I eavesdropped on the conversation of the people in the village and learned that the girl's name was Ah Qing, and there was only one mother who depended on each other. It's a little strange that he has never found out who taught Ah Qing's swordsmanship, but it seems that he was born with it.
After another period of time, a man appeared next to Ah Qing. The white ape secretly investigated with a trace of complex and indescribable emotions, and learned that the man was Fan Li, the doctor of the Yue Kingdom, and the reason why he appeared next to Ah Qing was that he accidentally found that Ah Qing had peerless swordsmanship, and wanted to ask her to teach the Yue soldiers the fencing skills in order to defeat the Yue country's vengeance Wu Guo.
The white ape saw that Fan Li came to accompany Ah Qing to shepherd the sheep, and also saw a trace of hazy mist in Ah Qing's originally clear and pure eyes when he looked at Fan Li. He was gloomy in his heart, and he planned to leave quietly and never see Ah Qing's face again, but then he found something that made him furious, and he decided to go to Fan Li's life immediately!
**********
The two characters, Bai Wufang and Ah Qing, are from "Shaolin Temple" and "Yue Nu Sword" respectively, but they are both brain-opening in terms of setting, which is very different from the original. These two characters are two important foreshadowings of the book, the former will be dug up in the middle of the book, and the latter will not be dug up until the second half of the book - I hope I won't forget it then.
