"Whew--" After being punched in the face, the demon monkey howled miserably and fell back. Ruotao took advantage of the situation and shook her wrist: "This guy's head is so hard, it actually made my arm numb."
"The rock-eating yellow monkey likes to eat hard ores underground, and it also has a 'petrified' function to increase its defense." Guan Heng said at this time: "Be careful."
"I'm not afraid. I can't hit with my fists, and there's this." Ruotao shook the thunder-swallowing blade in his hand aggressively. The demon monkey who suffered the loss was so frightened that he stepped back a few steps. This guy bullies the weak and fears the strong. , turned around and wanted to run.
"Humph, you want to leave? Let's ask them if they agree before we talk." As soon as Guan Heng finished speaking, the ghost figures of the six men rushed out. The monster monkey saw those ghosts in the fake black realm and hissed at him. Roaring, almost foaming at the mouth.
Guan Heng said coldly: "If you dare to make a move, I will let them tear you apart immediately."
"Uluru—" The corpse horse saw the advantage at the side, and rushed over excitedly, raising its hoof to step on the demon monkey's head.
"Wait a minute." Guan Heng shouted, "Go on, I still need this guy alive."
Hearing this, Xi Ma turned angrily and ran to Ruotao's side. Guan Heng stepped forward and kicked the demon monkey: "Stand up and lead us forward. No tricks are allowed." As soon as he finished his words. , the rock-eating yellow monkey stood up reluctantly and walked up the slope.
Needless to say, Guan Heng temporarily spared the demon monkey's life. This was a right choice. This beast often gnawed on hard stones, and its whole body was as strong as copper lumps. If there were any stones blocking the road, the demon monkey would just hit it with its head. It shattered instantly.
"Haha, it's not bad to have such a monkey who can open the way." Hearing Ruotao whisper, Zima snorted in dissatisfaction, which means that our hoofs can still break stones, and that guy is nothing. amazing.
"Stop." Guan Heng flicked his fingers, and the demonic monkey patted its head in mid-air. It immediately stopped moving forward with a nervous expression on its face. "There is a stone tablet here, and I don't know what is written on it." Guan Heng touched the stone tablet and sighed: "It's really inconvenient not to know the characters."
"Chi chi chi..." At this moment, the demon monkey seemed to understand Guan Heng's words, and came over with a flattering expression, and then pointed to a fork in the road on the side.
"Sir, there seems to be a cave over there." Ruotao said, "This rock-eating yellow monkey probably wants to guide us there."
"Oh." Guan Hengmin glanced sideways at the demon monkey, trying to see if the other party had a conspiracy and wanted to lead him into a trap. The demon monkey seemed to be well-behaved, and walked in front as if volunteering. Ruotao glanced at Guan Heng, and the two immediately followed him, with the corpse horse walking beside him.
"These are...skeletons?!"
Ruotao looked down and found that this place was more of a shallow stone nest than a cave. The skeleton was leaning here, with some dark bamboo slips scattered around.
"Eh?!" Ruotao picked up something next to the skeleton and said with surprise, "This is a waistband specially reserved for the royal guards of the Heavenly Witch King. It turns out that this person is a fellow countryman of mine."
"So he is also a remnant of the Tianwu Kingdom. He died here for some unknown reason." As soon as Guan Heng finished saying this, the demon monkey held up a large handful of dark bamboo slips with his front paws and handed them to him as if to please. arrived in front of him.
"Ruotao, the content on this bamboo slip seems to be...about what's on the rock wall...come and take a look." Guan Heng said, pushing the thing to the other party.
Ruotao took it and looked at it carefully for a few times, and then said in surprise: "That's great. The content engraved on the bamboo slips is about this place. Let me translate it for you."
The owner of this skeleton is called Kuang Xiu. He was a very famous scholar in Tianwu Kingdom at that time. He was famous for translating various ancient texts. When an inexplicable plague broke out in Tianwu Kingdom and was expelled to the desert by other ancient countries, Kuang Xiu happened to be there. Here, I studied the origin of the underground palace, and ended up being separated from my own people.
However, Kuang Xiu has always been a happy-go-lucky person who only likes to delve into knowledge and doesn't care about other things. He raised a demon monkey to drive him to find food and water for him, so he lived here.
In just a few decades, Kuang Xiu went from his prime to twilight and became a gray-haired old man. However, he also researched a lot about the origin of the underground palace ruins.
This place was originally called "Changli Ancient Country". It was a place with mysterious origins and a long history. Later, it gradually disappeared as the years changed.
Kuang Xiu's purpose of staying here was mainly to study the characters of the ancient Changli Kingdom and other things. The bamboo slips around the bones are the content of his lifelong efforts to translate the Changli characters into the characters of the Tianwu Kingdom.
The underground palace in Changli Ancient Kingdom is extremely vast. If you are not familiar with the roads, it is easy to get lost in it. Kuang Xiu relied on the rock-eating yellow monkeys he raised to explore the path and destroy deadly traps along the way. He spent ten years to get most of the The areas were well explored and engraved on the bamboo slips.
But when he was about to explore the last area of the underground palace, Kuang Xiu fell seriously ill in his twilight years and his health was no longer good. This scholar, who had been lonely all his life and dedicated to the study of ancient cities, passed away in obscurity.
"That's all the content on the bamboo slips..." Ruotao said at this moment: "My fellow countryman Kuang Xiu, Grandpa Kuang Xiu, is really amazing. He actually spent his whole life here studying knowledge." "Perhaps Mr. Kuang Xiu's life's hard work and The hard work is for us who appear in the underground palace at this time."
After weighing the things in his hands, Guan Heng continued: "With these bamboo slips engraved with the path to the underground palace, our next actions will be smooth, and we have to thank him for this."
"By the way, I have to thank you too." Guan Heng touched the head of the demon monkey next to him at this time: "You are the monkey raised by Mr. Kuang, right? Living alone here for so many years is hard enough. If you want to leave, we’ll take you with us when we leave.”
"Chi chi chi?!"
Hearing this, the rock-eating yellow monkey was extremely excited. The reason why it stayed in the underground palace was because it was out of fun and touched a certain mechanism, causing a huge boulder to roll out and block the way out, so it was trapped. For so many years, if I hadn't been able to eat stones to satisfy my hunger, I would have starved to death.
Now that he heard that Guan Heng was willing to take it away, the monster monkey was so beautiful that his nose bubbled with joy, and he kept doing somersaults in place.
"Okay, don't be too happy too early. We haven't planned to leave yet." Guan Heng tapped the other party's forehead with his finger at this time: "Hey, monkey, we are looking for something called the Soul-fixing Pearl. You see? Have you passed? Do you know where it is?"
"Oh, Master, why do you need to ask it?" Ruotao hugged her shoulders and said, "It's just a thief hozen. It knows so many things. Instead of wasting time with the monkey, we might as well go find it ourselves. try to find."
