Chapter 8, Wise Fighting Monkey and Wolf
Qingshi looked at the scenery for a while, then turned around and took out all the medicinal materials and put them on the terrace to look at them one by one.
Seven kinds of auxiliary materials are needed to refine the Three-Star Qi Pill using mahuang fruit as the main material. Qingshi looked at the medicinal material pile and found that six kinds were ready. The only thing missing was the leaves of a winter fragrant tree. Fortunately, Qingshi remembered that it seemed to be on the way from the valley. There was a winter fragrant tree. I collected the medicinal materials and walked out of the basin to look for them according to my memory.
Sure enough, after walking less than five miles, I saw a winter fragrant tree growing under the stone wall on the right, and I immediately picked up a lot of leaves.
Just after picking leaves and preparing to go back to the small basin, Qingshi suddenly felt his heart tightening. When he turned around, he saw a howling moon wolf quietly sneaking over with its head lowered and its tail between its legs. It was less than three feet away from him.
Qingshi yelled and ran away. The five-mile journey was approaching in an instant. Qingshi ran into the small basin and ran for about a hundred steps. He stopped when he heard no movement behind him.
Looking back, I saw seven large wolves lined up on the edge of the basin, with the wolf king in the middle. They were all staring at me, but they did not dare to enter the basin.
Qingshi looked up at the sky. It was a good day with no clouds in the sky. The mountains were high and the valley was deep. The sunlight was shining on the west mountain wall and was about to enter the small basin at the bottom of the valley. Qingshi did not dare to neglect and hurriedly ran to the purple oak tree. After a few ups and downs, we were standing on the terrace outside the tree house.
Within a quarter of an hour, a ray of sunlight shone into the valley, and then slowly spread over the entire basin. The white mist dissipated quickly in the sunlight, and disappeared after a while.
Soon, those moon-howling wolves walked into the small basin, sniffing as they walked, and soon they came under the tree, and each of them looked up at the bluestone.
Standing more than ten feet high, Qingshi was not worried. After a confrontation between the man and the wolf, the wolf king took several wolves and dispersed, leaving only one lying in the grass not far away from the tree.
After half an hour, Qingshi stayed in the tree, bored, and thought, why not just take advantage of this time to make elixirs?
Just as he was about to take action, he heard a strange cry. He turned around and saw that the two big monkeys from yesterday had climbed onto the big tree at some point and were on a branch not far from the tree house. He screamed at Qingshi.
Qingshi secretly screamed that something was wrong, and sure enough, the two monkeys screamed a few times, then jumped onto the roof of the tree house, and then rushed towards Qingshi with their teeth and claws.
Qingshi quickly took out a sword from the storage bracelet, but without unsheathing the sword, he just waved the sword with the sheath and struck back at the monkey. For a while, one man and two monkeys were fighting each other.
After yesterday's battle, Qingshi's actual combat ability has improved a lot. The two monkeys now no longer have sticks in their hands, and Qingshi feels relaxed.
After fighting for a while, Qingshi performed his body and sword skills very well. The long sword in his hand hit the two monkeys from time to time, making the two monkeys scream.
After fighting for a while, the two monkeys realized that they were outmatched, so they jumped out of the tree house and returned to the branches. They bared their teeth and looked at Qingshi with confused expressions on their faces.
They couldn't figure it out. Wasn't this guy poisoned? Why did he come back to life? His fighting skills had improved.
Qingshi laughed loudly and shouted to the monkey: "Come on, come here and let me practice my skills. Why are you scared? Hahaha..."
The two monkeys glared at each other, not sure whether they understood Qingshi's words. They shook the branches vigorously and roared, and then the monkey on the right suddenly raised its head and let out a long roar. The sound was deep and penetrating, and then the other monkey began to roar like this.
Qingshi was feeling very proud, but he couldn't help but froze when he heard the roar, knowing that something was wrong, he was calling for reinforcements.
Sure enough, less than half the time it took to burn the incense, I saw a commotion in the trees on the cliff wall of the valley outside the basin. Several shadows walked through the canopy of the trees, causing a wave of branches and leaves.
Look at the direction of movement, it's coming right here.
After a few breaths passed, five or six big monkeys seemed to fall from the sky and land on the trees. Each one was actually bigger than the original two.
It turned out that these monkeys were climbing and jumping between trees without going to the ground. The two monkeys that came at the beginning obviously climbed in this way. Qingshi was focused on the wolves on the ground at that time, so he didn't notice it.
The monkeys did not stop after jumping off the tree, and immediately surrounded the tree house. The largest monkey moved the fastest, swooping down from the tree crown and waving his arm towards the bluestone.
When Qingshi saw these monkeys for the first time, he knew that they couldn't be beaten no matter what. He was already thinking about how to escape. Seeing the big monkeys rushing towards him, he quickly took a deep breath and held the long sword with both hands horizontally. Separate the chest.
There was a muffled sound, and the bluestone rolled in the air like a kicked ball, flew diagonally far away, and fell to the bottom of the tree.
The big monkey didn't seem to expect that this man was so careless. He couldn't help but forget to pursue him for a moment. He supported the balcony guardrail with both arms and watched the bluestones flying out.
Naturally, Qingshi would not be so careless, but he deliberately used the power of the big monkey's blow to leap away and escape.
He was aiming at a small tree ten feet away. While he was in mid-air, Qingshi glanced at the ground and saw that the Howling Moon wolves had returned to surround the purple oak tree at some point. They did not expect that The bluestone flew so far all of a sudden, and everyone was chasing the bluestone in the direction it was flying.
The bluestone fell down to the small tree. He stepped on the tree with his toes and jumped up again towards the water pool with the force of the rebound.
After flying a few feet, Qingshi landed on the ground and rolled forward. He bounced up and ran forward. In his busy schedule, he took off his long sword and swung it backwards. There were seven or eight such long swords in his storage bracelet, all of them. It’s an ordinary thing and I don’t feel bad about it.
The wolves on the ground were chasing closer. The leader of the wolf king roared angrily, raised his forepaw and slapped down the spinning long sword, but his body was forced to stagnate.
It was good for Qingshi to have an extra breath at this time. He stepped on the Flowing Cloud Steps and ran with arms stretched out, but there was no way he could outrun the Wolf King on the flat ground.
Seeing that the Wolf King was about to catch up, Qingshi also ran to the edge of the pool. Without thinking, he jumped up and plunged into the dark green pool, causing a splash of water.
The Wolf King was chasing after him, but unexpectedly this man dared to throw himself into the poisonous water pool. He was stunned and saw water splashing up, and he quickly stopped and backed away.
When Qingshi entered the water, he still felt a little uneasy. He was not afraid of the poisonous mist, but the toxicity of this water was undoubtedly not comparable to the poisonous mist, and he didn't know whether the bright green Qi could withstand it.
As soon as he entered the water pool, he first felt a chill wrapping around his whole body, and then he felt that his skin seemed to be stinging. Qingshi's whole body was submerged in the water, his eyes were closed, and he felt carefully. The stinging feeling was getting stronger and stronger, and when he was worried, he felt... It started to weaken, and it seemed that it had adapted to it, and it seemed to become warmer along with the water temperature.
Qingshi looked inside himself and saw that no poisonous substances had invaded his limbs and bones. The bright green Qi in the meridians in his body still slowly circulated on its own. It seemed that there was no difference between being in poisonous gas or poisonous water.
Qingshi was overjoyed, opened his eyes and popped his head out of the water, which immediately caused a commotion. When he looked closely, he saw seven howling moon wolves gathered in a group on the edge of the east side of the pool. They were uneasy and commotion when they saw his head popping up.
About twenty feet away from the wolves on the south side of the pool, seven or eight big monkeys jumped up and screamed in fear when they saw the bluestone emerging from the water.
Qingshi laughed loudly and shouted towards the shore: "You beasts, come on, come down and wash yourself, you will feel very comfortable. Come on, come on, hahaha..."
Then, Qingshi swam backstroke in the pool.
The two groups of beasts fell silent, looking at each other with confused faces, and then turned to stare blankly at Qingshi at a loss.
The bluestone swam for a while, then suddenly took a deep breath, plunged down and disappeared, causing a slight commotion among the beasts.
After a few breaths, Qingshi suddenly jumped out of the water from the side close to the Howling Moon Wolf. As soon as he emerged, he yelled and threw large splashes of water towards the wolves.
The wolves were caught off guard and quickly retreated in panic. The one closest to the pool was unable to escape and was splashed with a few drops of water on its butt and tail.
I saw the wolf howling and jumping up to a height of more than ten feet. After landing, it turned around and howled wildly around its tail. However, I saw a few wisps of green smoke hissing and rising from the watery areas of its butt and tail.
The wolf turned around a few times, then suddenly raised its head and let out a long howl. Then it tucked its tail and sprang out, running away without looking back.
Several other wolves swarmed after the wolf without hesitation, even the Wolf King was no exception.
The water beside the pool was shallow. Qingshi stood up and the water was up to his waist. Qingshi slowly moved towards the monkey group with a cold face. There was a slight panic among the monkey group.
A few monkeys bared their teeth and made threatening sounds, while the others deliberately ignored the bluestone and groomed each other to catch lice, pretending to be calm, but from time to time they quietly glanced at the bluestone.
Qingshi suddenly roared, slapped the water with his hands, stirred up waves, and staggered towards the monkey group. In an instant, the monkey group ran around and disappeared with a roar.
Qingshi jumped onto the shore and laughed looking at the direction where the monkeys disappeared.
After laughing for a while, Qingshi shook the water droplets on his head, and then circulated his zhenqi to dry the poisonous water on his body. Under the baking of the fire attribute zhenqi, his clothes were quickly dried.
Qingshi stirred up his energy, originally intending to shake the clothes next to his skin looser. Unexpectedly, with a stroke of luck, the clothes turned into strands and flew out in all directions with the wind, and he suddenly became almost naked. .
Qingshi didn't react for a moment and stood there in confusion.
After two breaths, Qingshi came back to his senses. He looked down and saw that the storage bracelet on his left wrist was still there. He praised it in his heart that it was indeed a spiritual weapon and it was not soaked in poisonous water like his clothes.
Qingshi quickly took out his spare clothes and pants from his bracelet and was about to get dressed when he heard a noise coming from the front.
Looking up, it turned out that the monkeys had not gone far, they were all hiding behind the bushes. But then they all appeared, staring at the bluestone and shouting in unison: Oh, oh, oh, oh...
These monkeys were actually laughing at him, and some of them were shouting, jumping and rolling, pointing and poking at the bluestone, laughing and joking.
Qingshi became so angry that he quickly put on his clothes and scolded the monkey. After scolding him several times, he couldn't help but laugh, and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
After getting dressed, Qingshi and the monkeys looked at me and I looked at you, but neither of them dared to come near.
After a while, the monkeys were bored and slowly started to play by themselves. They climbed down to smell the flowers and pulled some grass leaves to taste. Qingshi sat cross-legged on the edge of the pool and watched these monkeys playing, which was quite interesting. interesting.
After a while, the sunlight slowly moved out of the small basin, and the group of monkeys began to walk out, playing and playing around all the way. Finally, they walked out of the basin, climbed up the trees, and screamed to their friends.
