Some of the monkeys were holding wooden sticks, and some were holding wild fruits and stones, and they all surrounded Cao Zhe.
Cao Zhe didn't get angry with the monkeys, he just released a powerful aura that made the monkeys run away in shock.
The group of monkeys who had responded to the call of the little white ape before immediately left the little white ape alone without any sense of loyalty.
The little white ape was also stubborn, but was not affected by Cao Zhe's breath, and continued to grin at Cao Zhe.
"Okay! Monkey, don't be angry. Do you have a name?" Cao Zhe asked the little white ape.
The little white ape was stunned, as if he was wondering why he could hear Cao Zhe speaking.
The fact that it can have such 'doubts' just shows that its wisdom is far beyond its peers.
At least the monkeys and squirrels that Cao Zhe came into contact with on Wudang Mountain never directly doubted why Cao Zhe was different from other people and could communicate with them.
"Zhizhi! I don't have a name, but you can call me King. I am the Monkey King." The little white ape responded, although he was still wary of Cao Zhe.
Cao Zhe smiled and said: "Monkey King? Are you sure? That one with black back and gray hair is squatting on the largest fruit tree eating fruit. What is it?"
Cao Zhe began to chat in depth, talking about more complex topics.
He wanted to try to see how smart this little white ape could be.
"I will defeat it, I need to grow, they... can help me grow quickly." The little white ape said, pointing to the green fruits on the dwarf peach tree.
Cao Zhe roughly deduced that the intelligence of this little white ape should be about the same as that of a human cub of four or five years old.
This number is amazing!
Because this little white ape is definitely not as old as four or five years old.
Human cubs of the same age might not be as smart as it.
This is not surprising either.
Many animals in nature are amazing in their early stages of growth and are often better than humans.
It's just that the upper limit is locked in the later stage, unlike humans, who will continue to improve almost throughout their lives until they die.
"Then let's make a deal, okay?"
"I will teach you how to use the sword, and you will help me look after the tree. If the fruit on the tree matures, I will give you half." Cao Zhe said to the little white ape.
The little white ape immediately exploded: "They are all mine."
Cao Zhe said: "But you can't beat me. According to the rules, they are all mine."
The little white ape showed a sad and lost expression, and then asked in high spirits: "What is a sword?"
"If I learn it, can I defeat you?"
Cao Zhe laughed and said, "You can give it a try!"
"I think you have a chance."
The little white ape said: "That's good! I'll learn...swordsmanship from you!"
At this moment, the word 'sword' came out vaguely in the little white ape's throat.
Hong and Huang, who were still excitedly collecting herbs and monkey wine, were already not surprised when they saw Cao Zhe talking to Bai Yuan.
Among the Taoist priests on Wudang Mountain, who doesn’t know that their leader has the ability to communicate with animals without any barriers?
Sometimes when I get mad, I can talk to trees, weeds, and stones for a long time.
"Okay! From now on, I will teach you what a sword is." Cao Zhe said to the little white ape.
Then, Cao Zhe found two wooden sticks, handed one to the little white ape, and held the other in his hand.
I found two more sharp stone pieces.
"Watch my movements and learn from me until you think you can master a better and more comfortable shape." Cao Zhe said.
He didn't make it very clear, but that was the purpose.
The little white ape didn't ask any more questions.
It has a simple mind and doesn't think too much about why. It just thinks that there must be a reason why Cao Zhe taught it this way.
Afterwards, for two consecutive days, the little white ape just followed and learned how to use stone flakes to polish a decent wooden sword.
Huang and Hong often left the valley together to collect delicacies and game.
With Huang Yaoshi joining the team, the problem of lack of exquisite dishes has been solved.
Although Huang Yaoshi is not very good at cooking, he is really good at eating and giving advice.
The two of them worked together to cook delicious food that was indeed very flavorful.
Having these two accompanying chefs...companions can indeed make living in the wilderness less boring.
Of course, during this period, what Huang Yaoshi was most afraid of was that Cao Zhe would come to him to 'study'.
Although Lao Huang has an extremely rich reserve of knowledge, Cao Zhe's learning speed is too fast and he can always easily surpass him in some aspects, which makes Lao Huang often doubt his life.
After that, he had to rack his brains in order to deal with Cao Zhe's questions.
On the third day after entering the valley, the little white ape finally polished a wooden sword that he was most satisfied with.
Then Cao Zhe taught it all the basic sword moves, as well as a set of breathing and breathing methods specially tailored for it to temper its internal strength.
The body structure of apes is generally similar to that of humans, except that there are many fewer acupoints and the directions of meridians are slightly different.
Cao Zhe's set of internal skills specially tailored for the little white ape not only refines the internal strength, but also tempers the body. It incorporates very few of the sun's body-building movements.
Tell the little white ape that these movements can only be practiced before the sun rises, when the morning light shines, or after the sun sets, when only the afterglow of the setting sun is left.
After teaching the little white ape these things, it was time to say goodbye.
The little white ape looked at Cao Zhe with tears in his eyes, looking very reluctant to give up.
Although it grew up in a group of monkeys, it has never seen its parents, and it lacks efficient communication with other monkeys, making it extremely lonely.
After spending several days together, Cao Zhe's gentle teachings made him feel emotions different from those of the monkeys.
"It doesn't have to be this way!"
"We say goodbye today in order to meet again another day."
"Little White Ape! We will meet again later. I hope you can tell me your name when we meet next time." Cao Zhe said.
The little white ape said reluctantly: "Master...Father! Can you give me a name?"
The pronunciation of the word "master" was not standard, but it was still difficult to pronounce.
Cao Zhe never taught it. Maybe the little white ape learned it on his own from Cao Zhe's interactions with Hong and Huang.
"You have to choose your name yourself."
"I won't give you a name because you need to walk your own path."
"The outside world is different from what you think. If you plan to go down the mountain one day, you will find that every step is difficult. Everything will be full of malice towards you. The few good intentions are often accompanied by purpose."
"The word master...you don't need to mention it anymore. When one day you can carry a sword on your back and come to Wudang Mountain in an upright manner to find me and tell me your name, then I will accept you as my disciple." ." After saying that, he ignored the little white ape and looked at Huang Yaoshi.
Huang Yaoshi said: "The formation has been set up a long time ago. As long as the people outside are protected from blowing up the mountain, they will definitely not be able to get in."
Cao Zhe nodded and said: "Then let's go!"
Hong Qigong asked: "Return to Wudang?"
"No! Go to Xiangyang first, and let's meet a senior together."
