Teng Qingshan followed the three Steel Arms Monkeys from afar and chased them agilely and nimbly. When he encountered some thorns and weeds blocking his way, Teng Qingshan even flew over ten Zhang away and dodged them easily. In short, Teng Qingshan didn't make any sound on the Steel Arms Monkey Mountain.
"Ya!"
"Ya Ya Ya ~ ~"
The three Steel Arms Monkeys carried the corpse of the azure python and sprinted while calling out to each other excitedly. Even with their sensitive six senses, they didn't notice that there was a human following them from afar.
After following for seven to eight Li, Teng Qingshan's ears twitched.
"Ya Ya Ya!"
"Ya Ya Ya ~ ~ ~ ~"
… …
A series of noisy cries of the Steel Arms Monkeys came from not far ahead.
"Listening to the cries of the Steel Arms Monkeys, there should be a lot of them." Teng Qingshan watched as the three Steel Arms Monkeys carrying the corpse of the azure python disappeared from his sight, but he stood on the spot without moving. "I can't follow blindly now. If I accidentally fall into the group of Steel Arms Monkeys, I'll be in trouble."
Lowering his body, Teng Qingshan followed the noisy cries and approached slowly.
"Walla ~ ~" Although the sound of flowing water was very weak, Teng Qingshan could hear it clearly.
Halfway up the mountain, Teng Qingshan advanced stealthily for about one Li before stopping and hiding in the messy bushes. Not far in front of him was a lake that was almost circular and about ten Zhang long. The lake water was still emitting hot air. Many Steel Arms Monkeys were in the lake water, and a few were on the shore.
"There are quite a lot of Steel Arms Monkeys. There are about thirty of them in the hot spring lake and over ten on the shore. "Teng Qingshan smiled," These Steel Arms Monkeys also like to soak in hot springs. "
From the outside, the lake water emitting hot air was indeed like a hot spring.
However, it was hard to tell if it was really a hot spring without feeling the temperature personally.
"Ya! Ya Ya! "
The Steel Arms Monkeys were playing in the lake water, and the monkeys on the shore were also calling out. It was a pity that Teng Qingshan couldn't understand the language of the Steel Arms Monkeys.
"Eh!" Teng Qingshan's eyes lit up as he stared at the center of the hot spring lake.
In the hot spring lake, there were some smooth stones that protruded out of the water. In the middle of the hot spring lake, there were more than ten slender and long roots that broke out of the water. There were green leaves on the roots. Among the green leaves on three of the rhizomes, there was a bright red fruit hanging from each of them.
Of the other ten or so roots, three of them also had fruits, but the fruits were green and much smaller. The rest of the rhizome only had leaves and no fruits.
"Scarlet Fruit!" Teng Qingshan, who had seen all kinds of spirit fruits before, was overjoyed when he saw it. "I came at the right time. There are actually three ripe Vermilion Fruits. As for the other three Vermilion Fruits, it will probably take a few more months for them to fully ripen. "Eating an unripened Vermilion Fruit would do no good.
"However, there are almost fifty Steel Arms Monkeys here!" Teng Qingshan frowned and asked, "What should we do?"
"We can't barge in forcefully. The three Steel Arms Monkeys that were carrying the corpse of the azure python are not here. It is obvious that there are more Steel Arms Monkeys on this Steel Arms Monkey Mountain! "Teng Qingshan had a premonition that the Steel Arms Monkeys guarding the Scarlet Fruit were only a portion of the monkeys.
The 'Monkey King' and other powerful characters of the monkeys were probably not here.
"If I dashed over and snatched the Scarlet Fruit. The Steel Arms Monkeys would probably surround me before I could pluck the Scarlet Fruit. They might even call out to the other Steel Arms Monkeys. "Teng Qingshan thought for a while and said," Hmm, all living creatures will sleep and feel sleepy at some point. Although the Steel Arms Monkeys are intelligent, they are like children. They are not as responsible as a soldier. "
One word — — wait!
Wait until the sky turned dark, wait until the Steel Arms Monkeys sleep and feel sleepy. Steal the Scarlet Fruit while it's dark!
With his night vision, it would be more effective to move in the night.
… …
Because he was preparing to steal the Scarlet Fruit, Teng Qingshan first poured out half of the water in his water gourd. If Teng Qingshan didn't move violently, he might not make a sound. However, at the critical moment, when the movements were intense and the changes were rapid, the water in the gourd would surge and produce a sound.
He also placed the Blood Imbibing Saber into his bag and wrapped it with his clothes, making no sound at all.
With the Reincarnation Spear in his hand, Teng Qingshan squatted quietly in the weeds.
"At night, we'll pass by from the side!" Teng Qingshan carefully examined the environment, even the surrounding rocks and trees, and thought of the safest plan. "After plucking, if I'm not discovered, I'll be able to find a way out. He continued to sneak back. If I am discovered, I will immediately jump up the tree … … These Steel Arms Monkeys that are not even innate can't catch up to me. "
He waited quietly.
After several hours, it was already evening, and the sky was dark.
"Ah!" An ear-piercing cry rang out.
Teng Qingshan, who was constantly staring at the hot spring lake, couldn't help but squint his eyes.
Whew! Whew! Whew!
After the ear-piercing cry rang out, nearly fifty Steel Arms Monkeys dashed out of the hot spring lake with lightning speed. All the Steel Arms Monkeys were on the shore of the lake, and none of them dared to make a sound. They all stared at the Steel Arms Monkey that was walking towards them — — a Steel Arms Monkey that was much taller!
A normal Steel Arms Monkey was slightly shorter than a human.
However, the Steel Arms Monkey that was walking towards them was nearly nine Chi tall. Its entire body was covered in red fur, and there was a small tuft of silver fur on its chest. This tall and big Steel Arms Monkey glanced at the group of Steel Arms Monkeys, and with a 'whoosh', it suddenly leaped up. This leap was several Zhang high and over ten Zhang away, landing on a rock in the middle of the lake.
After that, it continuously jumped twice, and the tall and big Steel Arms Monkey arrived beside the stem of a Scarlet Fruit. It stretched out its hand and plucked a bright red Scarlet Fruit!
"Oh no!"
Teng Qingshan's facial expression changed drastically. "It's here to pluck the Scarlet Fruit!"
Originally, Teng Qingshan had planned to wait until nighttime to make his move. Who would have thought … … that tall and big Steel Arms Monkey would start plucking the fruits in the evening. At this moment, the fifty Steel Arms Monkeys were surrounding the lake, extremely obedient. They were all staring at the tall and big Steel Arms Monkey plucking the fruits … … At this moment, Teng Qingshan had no chance at all!
Whew! Whew!
With a few leaps, the three ripe Scarlet Fruits were all plucked.
"Not a single one is left! This is going to be troublesome. " Teng Qingshan clenched his teeth and said, "That tall and big Steel Arms Monkey should be much stronger than normal Steel Arms Monkeys!" The arms of a normal Steel Arms Monkey had a strength of no less than ten thousand Jin. This tall and big Steel Arms Monkey … … was probably as strong as an innate expert.
"Let's find another opportunity." Teng Qingshan didn't dare to snatch it openly.
Who knew how many Steel Arms Monkeys were left in the group of monkeys?
"Ah!" The tall and big Steel Arms Monkey shouted loudly. Immediately, thirty Steel Arms Monkeys followed it and left. Only a dozen Steel Arms Monkeys were left here.
Teng Qingshan held the Reincarnation Spear in one hand and walked quietly in the forest, beginning to follow the group of Steel Arms Monkeys rapidly. He followed them for about two Li … … With one glance, Teng Qingshan could see that there were at least a hundred Steel Arms Monkeys waiting in the distance. Among the hundred Steel Arms Monkeys, there was a Steel Arms Monkey with a similarly tall and big body and silver fur on its chest.
"Ah! Ah! Ah! "
When the tall and big Steel Arms Monkey arrived with the other Steel Arms Monkeys, they immediately cheered.
"There are so many monkeys in this group. There are over a hundred at the entrance of the lair. I wonder how many are inside. "Teng Qingshan glanced at a protruding cliff at the side." Up the cliff, "Holding the Reincarnation Spear in one hand, Teng Qingshan climbed up easily and reached the cliff in a short while.
There was a platform on the cliff, and the platform was filled with vines and other weeds.
On the platform on the cliff, Teng Qingshan slowly scurried forward for a distance. Then, he lay down and moved to the side of the cliff, looking down at the lair of the monkeys.
"Heavens!" With one look, Teng Qingshan inhaled a breath of cold air.
Below, a large number of red-furred Steel Arms Monkeys were scattered everywhere. Some were eating wild fruits, some were fighting and playing with each other. Occasionally, one or two tall and big Steel Arms Monkeys could be seen. "No wonder no one dares to force their way in. There are over a thousand Steel Arms Monkeys in the lair of the monkeys! I can already see eight of those tall and big Steel Arms Monkeys. "
Each Steel Arms Monkey had the strength of a hundred thousand Jin.
Who would dare to force their way in when there were over a thousand Steel Arms Monkeys?
"That Steel Arms Monkey holding the Scarlet Fruits." With one glance, Teng Qingshan saw that the tall and big Steel Arms Monkey was holding three Scarlet Fruits and walking towards the cave on the side of the mountain. At the entrance of the cave, there were two ordinary Steel Arms Monkeys guarding it. The tall and big Steel Arms Monkey entered the cave, and no other Steel Arms Monkey stopped it.
"Oh … … Looks like the things of the Steel Arms Monkeys have been hidden in the cave." Teng Qingshan stared at the cave not far away and looked at the surroundings carefully. "Hmm, if I climb to the platform above the cave, at night, I will be faster. When night fell, he would be faster. He would flip from the top and enter the cave. That is also possible. "
… …
The tall and big Steel Arms Monkey carried the three Scarlet Fruits and continued to advance in the cave. After a few turns, it arrived at an empty area inside the mountain. There was a huge square pit on the ground inside the mountain. In the square pit, there was a lot of light red liquid, and a strong fragrance of wine spread in all directions. The tall and big Steel Arms Monkey sniffed and couldn't help but lick its lips.
However, it didn't dare to make a sound.
Because at this moment, beside the square pit, there was a Steel Arms Monkey with the same physique as an ordinary Steel Arms Monkey. However … … its entire body was covered in silver fur! Its eyes were gold in color! In front of the Steel Arms Monkey with golden eyes and silver fur, the tall and big Steel Arms Monkey was very obedient.
The Steel Arms Monkey with golden eyes and silver hair glanced at the tall and big Steel Arms Monkey.
"Ah!" The tall and big Steel Arms Monkey immediately put the three Scarlet Fruits on the ground and took two steps back.
The Steel Arms Monkey with golden eyes took out a stone basin from the side. The stone basin was filled with water and all sorts of green and white wild fruits. After that, the Steel Arms Monkey with golden eyes took out a Scarlet Fruit and put it into the stone basin. After that, it used a stone rod to mash these fruits. After mixing them with the water, they actually turned light red.
"Chi chi!" The Steel Arms Monkey with golden eyes sniffed and took out another Scarlet Fruit. It mashed the Scarlet Fruit and put it into the basin.
"Chi chi." After sniffing again, the Steel Arms Monkey with golden eyes nodded in satisfaction.
It carried the stone basin and poured all the light red liquid into the square pit at the side. The Steel Arms Monkey with golden eyes smiled in satisfaction and threw the last Scarlet Fruit into the stone basin at the side. It was obvious that there were no other ingredients.
"Ah ah ah ah!" The Steel Arms Monkey with golden eyes shouted at the tall and big Steel Arms Monkey.
When the tall and big Steel Arms Monkey heard this, it also raised its claws happily and shouted excitedly. After that, it ran out hastily.
The Steel Arms Monkey with golden eyes took out a wine jar made of stone from the side and scooped the wine from the big pit at the side to the brim. It drank a big mouthful and then let out two strange cries complacently. It then carried the wine jar and walked out.
