The white ape is quite spiritual. After listening to Jiang Shuo's words, he no longer plucking the golden eagle's flight feathers. The horse bear mother and her son wanted to come up and bite the golden eagle to death, but the white ape shouted back with a bared teeth. Don't look at the white ape. It was only the height of a child, but when Ma Xiong saw its skill in fighting the golden eagle just now, he didn't dare to step forward for a moment, and only roared lowly around the golden eagle and the white ape.
Just when the two sides were in a stalemate, they suddenly heard a loud roar, but it was Mahayan who rushed back after hearing the roar of the previous fight between the horse bear and the golden eagle. When he came and saw the scene closely, he hurriedly shouted to drive away the three animals. brown bear.
Mahayan was quite prestigious in the eyes of Ma Xiong and his son. Although the three bears were unwilling to do so, they could only retreat slowly.
Mahayan first lifted Jiang Shuo up and put him back on the four-wheeled vehicle. Then he wanted to step forward to check the golden eagle's injury, but the white ape didn't recognize him. He still grinned and refused to let him get close. Jiang Shuo hurriedly said something to The monkey said: "Brother Bai, the great monk Mahayana is a doctor. Please let him see if the golden eagle can be saved."
When the white ape heard the sound, he immediately stepped aside. Mahayan looked at the white ape in surprise. He knew that Jiang Shuo could speak animal language, but what Jiang Shuo just said was human language, and the white ape actually understood it!
Jiang Shuo leaned on the car and smiled at him: "Brother Bai and I are old acquaintances. We have been together day and night for more than two years, and we also practiced martial arts together. Therefore, I can understand it when it speaks ape language, and he also understands when I speak human language." You have to understand most of it.”
Mahayan couldn't help but marveled, but his attention was quickly attracted by the injured golden eagle on the ground. The injuries to the huge raptor's beak and claws were not fatal, but one of its wings was broken. If left alone, it would die. deal.
Mahayan returned to the wooden house and took out a medicine bottle, wooden sticks, cloth strips and other objects. However, as soon as he approached, the golden eagle immediately stretched out its head and pecked it. Fortunately, Mahayan had been prepared and avoided it in time. Seeing this, the ape, horse and bear roared in unison and were about to step forward and tear the golden eagle into pieces. Mahayan hurriedly raised his hand to stop it, and cautiously approached the golden eagle again. The golden eagle raised its head and pecked again, but Mahayan dodged it this time.
The violent movements of the golden eagle affected the injury on its wings, and it whined in pain. Mahayan imitated the eagle's roar, and raised his hands to comfort it, indicating that he wanted to treat its injuries. He repeated this advance and retreat many times, and the golden eagle made a sound. The eagle finally seemed to understand, and his struggle slowed down a bit. Mahayan took hold of his broken wings, and quickly twisted them together with both hands to connect the broken wings together.
The golden eagle immediately screamed in pain and stretched out its head to peck. Mahayan held the broken wings of the golden eagle with both hands. If he avoided the pecks of the golden eagle, he would not be able to set her bones, so he closed his eyes and chanted the Buddha's name. "Amitabha", he received the peck from the golden eagle, and blood started to flow from his arm.
Seeing this, White Ape and Ma Xiong tried to step forward again, but were blocked again by Mahayan. The golden eagle kept pecking at them with its beak like a steel chisel. Mahayan closed his eyes tightly, lowered his head to avoid the vital parts of his head and face, and used his hands to avoid the vital parts of his head and face. He kept going up, clamping the two ends of the broken wing firmly with two wooden sticks, applying ointment, and fixing it with cloth strips, and let the golden eagle peck his arms, shoulders and back until the flesh was bloody.
Jiang Shuo was very anxious when he saw this, but he couldn't move physically. He could still use his strength in the air when fighting, but it was useless when he wanted to save others. At this time, the white ape came forward again. Mahayan thought it was going to attack the golden eagle again, so he shouted to stop. Unexpectedly, the white ape threw away the bronze sword in his hand and stepped forward empty-handed.
Mahayan was just astonished when he saw the white ape rushing forward, straddling the back of the golden eagle, wrapping his arms around the golden eagle's head and holding it away. The golden eagle's head was pinned to death by the white ape on its shoulders, and it could no longer peck the Mahayan. When it tried to attack with its claws, it was suppressed by the white ape on its body and could not move.
Mahayan got a chance to breathe, and couldn't help but praise Bai Yuan: "Brother Bai is indeed very spiritual."
As quickly as possible, he tied the wooden stick holding the broken wing of the golden eagle with a piece of cloth, and then let go and stepped back. When the white ape saw Mahayan retreating, he also let go. The golden eagle's neck relaxed and he immediately turned around to peck the white ape, but the white ape was well prepared and nimbly dodged away.
The golden eagle suddenly felt that the pain of the broken wing was no longer so painful. The ointment was applied to the wound and it felt very cool. Only then did he realize that the monk in front of him was treating his own wound. Then he gratefully called Maha Yanming twice and flapped his wings. , I wanted to fly away, but my injured wings were weak, so I jumped a few feet off the ground, then fell down again in pain.
Mahayan hurriedly stepped forward to suppress its body and said: "Brother Jin, your injured wing will not recover in a few months. You need to be patient and heal the injury.
He heard that Jiang Shuo named the white ape "Brother Bai", so he took it upon himself to call the golden eagle "Brother Jin". However, this "Brother Jin" had a violent temper and would not listen to advice. As soon as Mahayan let go of his hand, he would flutter again. Mahayan had no choice but to cover it with cloth strips like a hen sold in the market. , tied tightly at the base of the wings, making it impossible for the golden eagle to flap its wings and take off, and then let go.
The golden eagle was bound by Mahayan and couldn't help but scream angrily. Mahayan could only console him and said: "Brother Jin, don't be angry. I'm doing this for your own good." He also warned the golden bear again and again not to seek revenge on the golden eagle. Fortunately, Jin The eagle only scratched the two cubs and did not form a blood feud. The two cubs had rough skin and thick flesh. The wounds they suffered were treated with Mahayan medicine and were no longer serious. Since the Mahayan told them not to be found, Qiu, he no longer thought about attacking the golden eagle.
Mahayan said to Jiang Shuo: "The golden-winged bird is the Buddha's protector. Fortunately, its life was not harmed."
Jiang Shuo said amusedly: "Didn't the great monk always say that all living beings are equal? Doesn't it mean that the golden eagle can't be hurt, so does the cub deserve to die?"
Mahayan clasped his hands together and said, "Amitabha, I made a mistake. Fortunately, Ma Xiong was not injured or injured."
Jiang Shuo thought in his heart: Mahayan first saved the horse bear, and then the golden eagle. These giant beasts and raptors will have to kill less in the future. Is Mahayan doing good deeds? Or do evil? But he himself also knew that there was no solution to this problem, so he kept these words in his stomach and did not say them out.
Although the flight feathers of raptors will grow and replace naturally, if too many are plucked out at one time, they will probably not recover. Fortunately, the white ape was stopped in time, and the golden eagle's flight feathers were not much damaged. In comparison, the wing bones were broken. On the contrary, it was a minor injury.
After several days of treatment, the golden eagle also knew that Mahayan was treating its injuries, so it no longer resisted fiercely. Instead, it was very cooperative. When Mahayan was changing its dressing, it would gently rub Mahayan with its beak. Yan held the spot on his back where it pecked him as an apology.
In the past few days, Bai Ape and Jiang Shuo exchanged words with each other. The white ape spoke "zhi zhi wah wah" in monkey language, but Jiang Shuo responded in human language, talking about the white ape's experience after they parted that day.
It turned out that the white ape had returned to Carboniferous Mountain to look for Jiang Shuo that day after being frightened away by Quan Xingjian's thunder. But that happened a few days later. It didn't know that Jiang Shuo and the others came from Qiyang Family Village, but Where to find him.
The white ape was used to walking alone, and he didn't care if he couldn't find Jiang Shuo. Ten months later, he was tired of being the king of marmosets, so he said goodbye to the group of marmosets and wandered aimlessly in the mountains. Wandering, it took a different route from Jiang Shuo. It went all the way up the Wei River until it reached the source of the Wei River. It didn't know that it had arrived at Longxi County of Weizhou on Longyou Road.
When White Ape arrived at the source of the Weishui River, he saw a gently sloping hilly mountain that was not very steep. There were many big trees at the foot of the mountain. Local farmers had cultivated layers of terraced fields on the hillside, but when they reached the top of the mountain, it was all bare. The most surprising thing about this mountain is that there are many rats on the mountain. The white ape had nothing to do with digging into the burrow to catch rats, but he took out bird eggs. The birds in this mountain lay their eggs in the burrows of rats, but the mountain rats do not suck the eggs. Birds and rats do not invade each other in the same den, which is a wonder in the world.
In fact, this mountain is the same mountain where birds and mice share caves as recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, where "birds and mice share caves, and the Wei River flows out." Because there are no big trees on the mountain to build nests, birds use rat holes to lay their eggs. There are many mountain eagles here. Mountain rats do not destroy the eggs, so that the birds can keep watch. If they see an eagle intruding, the birds will come out. Sound warning. The rat is inside the hole and the bird is outside the hole. Each takes what the other needs and does not harm the other.
Of course, the white ape didn't know this story, but when it compared with Jiang Shuo, Jiang Shuo immediately knew it was this mountain. "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" is Xiang'er's favorite book. She often talked to Jiang Shuo about the contents in the book. Jiang Shuo secretly marveled at all kinds of strange and strange things. He thought to himself that I thought "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" were all myths and legends, but I didn't expect that "birds and mice share the same cave in the mountain" actually existed.
The white ape saw that there was a temple on the top of the mountain with three springs in the temple. It didn't know that this was the "Temple of King Yu". Although it tasted the spring water, it was clear but nothing special, so it circled down the other side of the Bird and Rat Mountain and walked away. Enter a canyon with lush ancient trees. The gorge faces south and backs to north. There is a cliff on the north side. There is a crack in the cliff, and a torrent gushes out. Looking inside the crack, you really don't know the bottom. You can only hear the roar of the wind and the sound of the water. The white ape's curiosity aroused. , actually got into the crack.
Walking into the fissure, it became wider and wider. There were fluorescent lights on the wall. The white ape couldn't help but think of the earth veins under the Jijin Cave that he and Zhao Rui Jiangshuo walked through back then. It followed the guidance of the fluorescence and walked underground. This earth vein Every once in a while, there will be cracks and springs exposed on the ground. It will crawl out to find some food, and then return to the earth's veins to continue moving forward.
The white ape is not like a human being. He has nothing to do. He just walks along the earth's veins, eating when he is hungry and sleeping when he is tired. He walks for several months. The temperature of the earth's veins does not change all year round, so the white ape is not afraid of the cold winter. , walked thousands of miles underground without knowing it, and finally made it all the way here.
Jiangshuo Daqi: The end of the earth's veins is at this ice-free spring? Of course, the White Ape didn't come out from under the lake where the spring water gushed out. There were cracks in the mountains surrounding the canyon that could be drilled out. But according to the White Ape, the end of the earth's veins was indeed an underground spring, and there was more than one earth's veins. In the end, Everyone has gathered here, and the White Ape has not yet explored where it leads.
Jiang Shuo couldn't move, so Mahayan went to search according to what the white ape said, and he found several crevices, but they were all very narrow. Only the small white ape could get in and out. However, he could indeed hear if he put his ear against the mouth of the crevice. Hearing the roar of the wind and the roar of the water, he came back and told Jiang Shuo. Both of them were amazed.
The ointment that Mahayan used for the golden eagle was made from the saliva of a hexagonal dragon. It was very effective. Within a month, the wing bones of the golden eagle had grown back, but Mahayan still refused to let it fly. The eagle paced around the open space outside the wooden house like a giant chicken every day, and the injuries of the two cubs had already recovered.
Over time, the horse bear, white ape, and golden eagle played together, and they became good friends regardless of their previous grudges.
Some people died, but not completely...
