68. Smile with relief (special lengthened chapter)
The sun stood in the sky, warming a slightly moist land, and I saw that there were several towering leaves, and their foliage was extremely green.
There is also a hill opposite it, which is extremely steep and rocky.
On the cliff face of the small mountain, there was a group of small black shadows moving, as if they were climbing the mountain.
At this moment, a hurricane suddenly struck, and under such natural power, even the big leaves as big as a hill shook twice.
The group of black shadows that were climbing the mountain was completely visible at this moment, and it turned out to be a group of ants wearing red armor.
I saw that their tentacles were swaying from side to side, and their front and rear limbs were constantly exerting force, even if there was a hurricane around them, they still kept climbing up some of the bulges of the mountain, and the target was pointing to the top of the mountain!!
Among them, two ants are stronger and climb faster than the others, so they should be the leader of the group.
At the top of the mountain, the wind was very strong.
I saw seventeen black shadows standing there, looking down, looking at the juniors below who were trying their best to reach the top, they all laughed.
The dark shadows chatted:
"This group of children is really energetic, it seems that there should be many ants who can reach the top this year. β
"Yes, especially the two ants of the group and the knot, the speed is probably not as fast as ours in the past, and the achievements in the future will definitely not be inferior to ours. β
"This mountain is about 100 ants high, coupled with such a violent hurricane obstruction, according to the results of last year, the ants that were eliminated are more than thousands, I thought that this year will be the same, but I didn't expect this year's children to be out of my expectations, not only to be able to climb the mountain steadily, not to fall behind, it seems that there is a lot of spare strength, sure enough, the back wave pushes the front wave, a wave is higher than a wave. β
The black gradually faded, and a dozen ants wearing pale gold armor appeared at the top of the mountain.
The leader of the ant is the ant king, its golden mangs are far more prosperous than the elders around him, on the left and right sides of the ant king are two teams of ant elders, the golden mangs on his battle armor are much dimmer than the ant king, but they look majestic.
Its tentacles moved with the wind, and there was a smile in its tone, and the ants really had a bit of fairy air.
Just when they were still observing the situation of the juniors below, the originally bright mountain suddenly dimmed, and the ants who were still climbing looked upward, only to see a huge paw as a hill passing through the air, carrying a sound of breaking the air, and the ants discussed:
"Oh my God, what's that? How can it be that big!?"
A few ants on the top of the mountain also looked up, and saw that the owner of the soles of his feet had crossed the entire hill with a jump, and the ants frowned and said:
"Could it be that those supernatural beasts are about to start again today?"
What they are talking about is that the monkey and snake fighting competition has started again.
As one figure passed, more leaped over the hill.
Seeing the huge creatures above their heads passing by, all the ants below were a little afraid, after all, if the huge creature kicked at them, they would not have to die for most of them.
A few ants looked at the figure that kept passing above and was a little silent, because it was a group of strong people they had never been in contact with, there is an old saying, everyone has a circle of their own, and they don't know each other when they go out, and the same goes for animals, they look at these unknown existences, and their hearts are a little amazed, because the size is really too big.
Although he sighed, he still had to do the protection that should be done, after all, this one by one was too big, and if he stepped on it, he would not let them exterminate the clan, so he saw that they all didn't know how, and a puff of smoke suddenly rose from their bodies, and then they began to circle in circles.
As they began to move, their tentacles touching each other, the ants on the top of the mountain seemed to form a wonderful trick, and pale golden brilliance surged from them, and finally they converged and rose to the sky, forming an even fainter semicircular barrier on the outer perimeter of the hill.
Although the barrier is like a thin lens, but the huge creature stepped on it but could not lift even a little ripple, it can be seen that the barrier is far from being as fragile as it looks, and the ants who had stopped were excited to see the elder and the ant king laying down the protection, and saw that even the huge creature could not shake the barrier even if it stepped on it, they all regained their original calm, and began to cheer and strive to climb up.
The few ants on the top of the mountain laughed when they heard the cheers below.
The figures that swept over the heads of the ants were the monkeys, and they ran and ran like fish on land, with a sense of pleasure and ease.
"Ye" looked at the forest in front of him and said suspiciously:
"Strange, why is there nothing here?"
"Ling" smiled:
"Maybe the beasts thought it was too much trouble and didn't bother to plant those strange trees. β
I saw that the two sides of the street in front of me, where there were supposed to be several houses, were empty, and only the trees on both sides were visible.
In fact, the reason why this place is so empty is because players want to build large buildings, but it is too cumbersome to build now, so the empty space is reserved first.
"Zhuang" looked at the lot of buildings in front of him, and couldn't help complaining.
"How long will it take to get to the Snake Forest, I've been running all the way for so long, and all I see are these strange trees, it can't be that we are going in the wrong direction, right?
Hearing a monkey calling himself, the one-eyed golden retriever replied while running:
"Now that the sun is still in the east, we should not be wrong to catch it from its left. β
Speaking of which, he also looked at the trees on both sides around him, and continued:
"It's just that we may have taken a long detour. β
The reason why he felt that he had taken a long detour was because the road did not seem to be straight, but curved.
The one-eyed golden retriever monkey guessed correctly, they were indeed taking a long detour, and when they heard the boss's words, all the monkeys around them suddenly realized, and they opened their mouths or complained in their hearts:
"No wonder, I don't think the road was that long (a long detour? β
While the monkeys were still complaining, the one-eyed golden retriever monkey who was still hurrying laughed, obviously helpless because they were so careless, and at this time his eyes happened to stop in the forest, and saw that the green leaves of the forest were very dense, and the breeze would sway slightly when the green branches swayed slightly, but at this moment the branches and leaves in one of them trembled violently, as if something had struck the tree.
This made the one-eyed golden monkey stop his steps suddenly, and slipped out of two mud ditches on the ground, just when the monkeys were puzzled, and when they were about to ask, "Boss, why did you stop suddenly?", they saw a black shadow in the forest suddenly burst out of it, and a violent sound of breaking wind sounded from it.
The monkey who had not stopped his pace stopped at this time, and looked at the sky above his head in surprise, only to see that the black of the figure began to disappear under the sunshine, it was a yellow-haired monkey with very clean hair and a very soft face, and when he saw the monkey, the monkeys exclaimed:
"Elder Peach!!"
Elder Tao, who was straddling in the air, heard a monkey shouting to him, so he turned his head to look at the shouting, and when he saw that it was those students, he immediately smiled and said:
"It's you!"
Since she was still in mid-air, she had to land first, so I saw her arms spread violently, and the whole monkey was like a big bird in the air, with a whistling wind, gliding around in the air, and finally landed on the top of a tree in another forest, and landed steadily on it, and the whole process did not take more than five seconds.
All the monkeys confirmed that the monkey was Elder Peach, so they all greeted politely:
"Hello Elder Peach!"
Looking at the monkeys below, Hitomi couldn't help but turn, and smiled in his heart, as if he had some idea, only to hear Elder Tao shout:
"By the way, you're going to have a match with the students over there in a minute, are you interested in learning about the opponent's situation? Elder Ben and I are in a good mood today, if you want to understand, you can be accommodating." β
In the last sentence, the tone was slightly smiling, and it was very sweet.
Listening to Elder Tao's words, many monkeys began to chatter, and the four monkeys of "Qing", "Ye", "Ling", and "Zhuang" all asked with a look of surprise when they heard this kind of good thing:
"Elder Tao (Ah Niang), are you telling the truth?
Hearing that his children and those little guys were so excited, Elder Tao couldn't help but smile and shouted back:
"Elder Ben counts when he speaks!"
The little monkeys around heard Elder Tao's promise and cheered, because if they could get the news of the opponent before the game, then they could deploy in advance, and this event would definitely not lose again, they thought so, because they had been kneeling in the two competitions in the previous two years, the teaching was a three-year system, and a monkey and snake fighting competition would be held in June every year, that is, three competitions, and now the event has reached the last time, if they lose again this time, after they graduate and leave, they may not have the face to come back, after all, they have kneeling for three games in a row, which is unimaginableγ
Just when the four monkeys of "Qing", "Ye", "Ling", and "Zhuang" were about to ask Elder Tao and the information on the side of the snake forest, suddenly, the one-eyed yellow-haired monkey interrupted:
"Thank you for the kindness of the elders, but I don't think it's necessary!"
When the monkeys heard the boss's words, they were all anxious, you must know that the elders are not casual and accommodating, how can this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity be missed, all the monkeys thought so in their hearts, because they had this thought, so they all opened their mouths to persuade:
"Boss, what a great opportunity this is, you see that the elders (Ah Niang) are relieved, as long as we understand the situation, we will definitely be able to earn back all the face we lost before this time! So don't refuse, boss, agree! The big guy doesn't want to leave with regrets." β
In the face of the persuasive voices of the monkeys that were surging like a tsunami, the one-eyed yellow-haired monkey frowned and shouted:
"Shut up!~"
Although the voice was not loud, it swept in all directions, shocking the monkeys physically and mentally, and the words suddenly stopped.
It was all quiet.
The one-eyed yellow-haired monkey's chest rose and fell a little, and seemed to be angry, so he shouted again:
"Don't just look at the competition!! you don't want to think about why the elder and father hold the monkey snake fighting competition every year, it's not to test the results of our cultivation in the past year!! The elder and father are watching, if we accept this news, what will the elder and father think of us? Even if we win, what will the brothers of the snake forest who are the opponent think of us if they know that we won by cheating? We are not a life-and-death battle, just a friendly exchange, in order to test the progress of the past year, so please don't be so willing to fall, show courage, even if you lose?
His words made the monkeys in the audience stunned, and when they came back to their senses, they were greeted by a high cry.
"Boss, we are wrong! Just as you said! We should show an attitude when we are fighting! Don't play tricks! Even if we lose again, what if we lose? A hearty battle is enough! That's enough!!
Listening to the shouts of the crowd around him, Elder Tao smiled, with relief in his smile, and then heard the one-eyed yellow monkey say:
"That's it, so Elder Tao's kindness will be forgiven, and we will prove it with our own strength!"
Elder Tao nodded, and then under the gaze of the monkeys, he opened his arms and rode the wind away.
Before leaving, he glanced back, looked at the monkeys with high morale, and said in his heart:
"Very well, little ones, have a nice trip!"
