As soon as the two of them walked out of the cave, several stones flew over from the forest. They caught them one by one and threw them backhand, making the monkeys scream.
Changsheng did not search the southern foothills with Datou, but returned to the top of the mountain and continued to look down. At this time, Batulu had lit a bonfire from the bottom of the mountain, and what looked like a wild wolf was roasting on the fire.
While waiting for Datou and others to go up the mountain, Changsheng once again concentrated on sensing the location of other spiritual talismans. At this time, most of the other spiritual talismans were not in their original places. Long Haotian and Gongsun Chengwei were not in Xichuan at this time, but in Kunlun Mountain. The golden talisman on the shore of the South China Sea should be Li Huanchen. Babadamu from the Western Regions and Fanseng from Tianzhu were not where they were either. One had gone to the southwest border of the Tang Dynasty, and the other had gone to a place far to the west.
At this time, we can roughly guess who the spiritual talismans in different locations are, but as everyone moves around, it will not be long before it is difficult to determine who the spiritual talismans scattered everywhere are.
Datou and others searched very carefully, and after a long time, the four of them gathered at the top of the mountain.
"There's only one cave in the south of the mountain. I haven't found any other caves." Da Tou slurped water to quench his thirst.
"I didn't find it either." Yu Yi shook his head.
Shi Xuanming said, "There are no caves in Shandong, and no stone walls or stone platforms have been found."
Yang Kai said, "There are no traces of human habitation in Shanxi, and no underground caves or underground palaces have been found."
After the four people finished speaking, Chang Sheng spoke up and said, "For more than three thousand years, let alone houses and residences, even the foundation stones have been destroyed by trees supporting them."
After nodding, Da Tou asked, "Your Majesty, what should we do now, look for it again?"
"Forget it, stop looking, go down." Changsheng lifted up his energy and flew towards the south.
Datou and others followed closely behind.
Seeing everyone returning, Batulu hurriedly stood up and greeted, "You're back at the right time, come and eat meat."
The meat roasted on the bonfire was indeed wolf meat. Not far from the bonfire was a strange fish that was more than three feet long. It looked a bit like a giant salamander, but it only had two front legs, and its body was covered with hard scales.
"Oh, what is this?" Datou leaned over and looked down.
"I don't know, this guy bites people," Batulu said, turning to look at Changsheng, "What kind of fish is this? Can it be eaten?"
"I don't know him either." Changsheng shook his head.
"Then it's better not to bake it, but don't poison us to death." Batulu said.
"We are invulnerable to all poisons. If you want to die, you will die yourself." Da Tou said with a smile.
Batulu grinned stupidly and turned to invite everyone to eat wolf meat.
Datou's words reminded Changsheng that he also had a black snake inner elixir on his body that could ward off hundreds of poisons. Thinking that Batulu would be in danger if he followed everyone on his side, he gave the black snake inner elixir to Batulu, and then patiently Let's talk about how to use the inner elixir to remove toxins and detoxify them.
"Why is it tasteless?" Datou looked at the wolf meat in his hand.
"I originally brought salt, but the sacred cow caught fire at noon and it was all burned," Batulu said.
Da Tou then turned to look at Yu Yi. Yu Yi knew what Da Tou wanted to say, so he stood up and left.
"Lao Wu, didn't you find anything good this time?" Batulu asked.
Changsheng nodded, "It's normal that you can't find it. We didn't come here specifically to look for it, we were just along the way."
"I still feel something is wrong." Yang Kai frowned and looked north. It was already the second watch, and Prison Law Mountain had been completely shrouded in night.
"How do you say it?" Changsheng asked casually.
Yang Kai said, "As soon as we entered the mountain, the mandrills began to follow us. We divided our troops into four groups, and they also divided their groups into four groups. There are many monkeys in our Jiannan Road, and each monkey group has only one monkey king. The monkey king Wherever they go other monkeys will follow and I have never seen a group of monkeys acting separately."
"What are you suspecting?" Shi Xuanming asked.
Yang Kai did not directly answer Shi Xuanming's question, but said, "Monkeys are very easy to tame. In Jiannan Road, there are many mountain people who capture and tame monkeys and let them do the picking and farming. Moreover, monkeys can imitate cats and tigers, and they can imitate cats and tigers." In this way, the baby monkeys born to the tamed monkeys are influenced by their ears and eyes, and when they grow up, they will climb trees and pick like the mother monkeys."
Hearing Yang Kai's words, Shi Xuanming suddenly realized, "You mean the ancestors of these monkeys were responsible for patrolling the mountains and guarding the gates?"
Yang Kai nodded, "Yes, their behavior of driving us away is probably inherited from their ancestors. If it is just out of the instinct to drive away foreign animals, they will only follow the monkey king and should not be divided into four groups, unless someone specially dedicated it back then. Trained them."
After Yang Kai finished speaking, Changsheng said, "It makes sense. There was no monkey following me when I went up the mountain just now. This means that the monkeys can only be divided into four groups at most, each responsible for the four directions of the southeast, northwest and northwest of Prison Law Mountain."
"If this is the case, they must know where they need to be protected," Yang Kai said. "Previously, I searched for the western foothills, and Yu Yi searched for the northern part of the mountain. The largest monkey king has been wandering back and forth between me and Yu Yi."
"You mean the cave we are looking for is probably located in the northwest?" Big Head asked.
"It is possible," Yang Kai said, "The northwest direction is the wind outlet, so ordinary people would naturally choose to live in a place sheltered from the wind, but Fei Lian, as Feng Bo, probably likes to live in a place facing the wind."
"Okay, let's go back and look for it after dinner." Datou took a bite of wolf meat. To be fair, Batulu's barbecue was cooked well, but it lacked salt and was bland and tasteless.
After waiting for a while, Yu Yi returned, not only bringing back salt and other condiments, but also a jar of wine.
Yu Yi first handed the salt to Batulu, and then handed the jar of wine to Shi Xuanming.
Shi Xuanming reached out and took it, "Have you returned to Chang'an?"
Yu nodded.
"Yu Yi, when we searched the mountain earlier, did you notice..."
Before Yang Kai could finish speaking, Datou waved his hand and interrupted him, "Hey, Yu Yi, you are too biased. Why do you only bring wine to real men, but not to us too?"
Without waiting for Yu Yi to answer, Datou pretended to suddenly realize it, curled his lips and smiled evilly, "Oh, I understand, there is a difference between closeness and distance, hahahaha."
Seeing Da Tou's bad behavior, Yu Yi felt embarrassed, but Chang Sheng did not say anything to resolve it. Yu Yi and Shi Xuanming were somewhat interested in each other, but neither of them had ever pierced the window paper. Da Tou's bad behavior was not a bad thing, it was the same. Go with the flow and enjoy helping others.
Yang Kai also had the same thoughts as Chang Sheng, and was not in a hurry to smooth things over. It was not until Shi Xuanming turned red that he said, "A true gentleman who watches chess without saying a word, you are so open-minded, don't say a word, you can't even take a sip." On."
"It doesn't matter if you drink wine or not, you have to give me a pig head." Da Tou said with a smile, the pig head is only used to thank the matchmaker, Da Tou is pretending to be a matchmaker.
Changsheng also wanted to bring the two of them together. Seeing that the opportunity was rare, he laughed and assisted, "Give me one too."
Baturu was spreading salt on the wolf meat. When he saw Chang Sheng smiling, he also laughed too.
At this time, not only Shi Xuanming's face was red, but Yu Yi's face was also red. However, neither of them said a word to defend themselves. They could be regarded as lovers and concubines, and they acquiesced to each other.
After joking, Yang Kai got back to the business, and Yu Yi carefully recalled that just as Yang Kai said, whenever the two of them approached the northwest direction when searching the mountain, the Monkey King would lead the crowd and throw stones at the two.
Salt is the mother of all flavors. The wolf meat sprinkled with salt has a bit more aroma. Datou and the others eat meat and drink wine, which is very enjoyable.
Changsheng still had a lot of dry food with him, so he didn't touch the wolf meat. Taoist priests don't eat dog meat, and wolves and dogs belong to the same clan, so he didn't want to be contaminated with wolf meat. But then again, there are other things to eat now. If It was really to the point where he would starve to death if he didn't eat it. Let alone wolf meat, he could only break the rule and eat dog meat.
After having had enough wine and food, everyone returned to Prison Law Mountain. This time the five of them went straight to the northwest. With experience, everyone looked for suspicious areas based on the reactions of the monkeys.
When everyone approached the top of the mountain, the monkeys became extremely manic. They not only screamed and threw stones, but also tried to rush up to attack and bite.
There were no cave entrances or stone walls in the area where everyone was, and there was nothing unusual on the surface. Changsheng was close to the mountain, and he extended his spiritual energy for remote sensing, and soon gained something. "There were two huge copper doors inside, but they were piled up due to landslides." The earth and rocks were buried..."
