Chapter 175 White Ape Offers Fruit, Immortal Shows the Way

The white ape was waiting under the tree.

Xiao Jie followed him and said, "Senior, please tell me."

The white ape said, "What are you talking about? We have only reached this point. Keep climbing." He jumped up the mountain again.

Xiao Jie looked up and saw that the mountain must be more than a thousand meters high. It was covered with clouds and mist, and the top was completely invisible.

Did he have to climb all the way to the top?

Now he knew why the white ape said that only he could do it, and ordinary people couldn't do it just by climbing the mountain.

Xiao Jie had no choice but to eat a piece of barbecue and continue to climb up.

Fortunately, this mountain was not straight. Although it was tall and steep, you could still see protruding rocks or concave walls from time to time, and you could sit on them to rest and recover your strength.

After climbing up step by step for more than an hour, Xiao Jie finally reached the top of the mountain.

Looking down the mountain, the huge height made people dizzy.

The surroundings were surrounded by clouds and mist. In front of him was a narrow ridge, but the front of the ridge was obscured by clouds and mist. It was unknown where it led to. The white ape was waiting for him not far away. Xiao Jie quickly followed and stopped in front of the white mist.

The white ape looked at the white mist in front of him, but seemed to be thinking about something.

"Senior, what do you need me to do?" Xiao Jie asked impatiently.

The white ape said faintly: "You just told me a story, now I will tell you a story. This story is also about a monkey, but it is not a natural stone monkey, but an ordinary little monkey. It is called Maomao."

Xiao Jie was shocked. This white ape was indeed related to Maomao.

The white ape's eyes became distant, and his voice gradually became erratic, as if he had returned to the old times in the past.

"Maomao, watch it——!"

Cut it in two with one stroke! Swish, three dead branches side by side were chopped down in one stroke.

"You come." The woodcutter said and handed over the hatchet in his hand.

Maomao scratched his head, looked at the hatchet in his hand, and then looked at the owner who was expectant not far away, and raised the hatchet to the branch.

With one cut, a branch was cut off.

The woodcutter nodded with satisfaction, "Haha, good job, here, I'll give you a steamed bun." Maomao immediately took the steamed bun and ate it happily.

Just after he finished eating the steamed bun, the woodcutter stuffed the hatchet to him again, "Keep going, don't stop, just like before, you have to cut ten bundles of firewood today, and when you learn it, I won't have to work so hard in the future."

The owner's voice made Maomao a little confused, and he had no idea what he was talking about.

He could only chop the wood one by one.

However, his strength was not as strong as that of a human, and he accidentally chopped on the knot with a click, and the branch was not cut off, but the hatchet was broken.

"Stupid, stupid, stupid, you don't even know how to do this. Look, you broke the axe again! You're useless! You can't teach me no matter what!" The woodcutter swung the branch and beat him. Maomao was so scared that he kept screaming, but he couldn't understand why his master was so angry and so scary.

The woodcutter sighed at Maomao's frightened look, "It costs fifty coins to repair this axe, which is enough to buy ten steamed buns. If you always do this, how can you live in the future?"

"Chop slowly first, I'll go see if there are any mushrooms, and make mushroom soup for you in the evening."

After that, in order to prevent Maomao from escaping, the woodcutter simply tied the rope around Maomao's neck to the big tree.

Seeing the woodcutter leave, Maomao immediately took action. Being beaten all day long had made it angry and dissatisfied. Seeing the master leave, it cut the rope around its neck with a knife and turned around to escape into the forest ahead.

It and its master often passed by the forest, and had long noticed that there seemed to be many monkeys living in the forest. Every time it saw those monkeys living freely in the valley, it envied them. If it could live freely in the forest, wouldn't it be great?

So it went into the valley without hesitation...

Xiao Jie finally confirmed the truth of the matter after hearing this, "So Senior Ape is Maomao? But why is Senior Ape so old..."

"I want to know - hehe, if you want to know what happened next, please listen to the next chapter."

"Ah!" Xiao Jie was speechless.

The white ape laughed loudly, and seemed to be very satisfied with Xiao Jie's reaction, "I'm just joking with you. This story is not that long, just continue listening..."

[Maomao looked at the big ape sitting on the stone platform tremblingly, and his sturdy muscles looked extremely scary.

Several monkeys behind him pushed him to the big ape.

"My king, a monkey ran in from outside the valley."

The big ape picked up Maomao and looked at him, but his eyes fell on the hatchet in his hand.

Without saying a word, he grabbed it.

"That's mine."

Maomao rushed forward to take it back, but was kicked away by the big wild ape.

The big wild ape snorted coldly: "What do you mean yours and mine? I am the king of this Monkey Valley. Everything in this valley belongs to me. If you dare to shout again, I will send you to the canyon to feed the tree demon."

Maomao wanted to fight, but an old monkey next to him pulled him away.

When they reached a secluded place without monkeys, the old monkey let go and comforted him: "Little monkey, don't make the king angry. With your small body, the king can beat you to death with one punch."

"Woo woo woo, I was bullied by my master before, and now I am bullied by other monkeys here. Why does it bully me!"

"This is the life of a monkey. Being a monkey is hard. There is nothing in this world that is not bitter. Come on, try this. It won't be bitter after you drink it." He said and handed over a gourd.

Maomao took a sip of the liquid in the gourd and immediately grinned and jumped.

"Hahaha, how about it? Does it taste good? This is the monkey wine I brewed myself."]

It turns out that the old monkey, the giant ape and the white ape still have such a past. Xiao Jie couldn't help but sigh when he heard this, but now things have changed.

"What's next?"

White Ape sneered and said: "How can I be willing to do so? I asked the old monkey how to control my own destiny. The old monkey told me that I must be powerful enough." White Ape said, looking at Facing the fog ahead, my thoughts returned to the past again...

[The old monkey said quietly: "Only with strong power can you control your own destiny. Have you seen the highest mountain? It is said that there are gods living somewhere. If you can find the gods, you will definitely be able to change yourself." The way of destiny.”

"Then why don't you go find it?"

"Oh, I've tried it too, but unfortunately the cliff is too high and steep. No monkey can climb it. My leg was lame when I fell while climbing the mountain. Now I can't even climb trees."

Maomao looked at the towering mountain with extremely firm eyes, "I will definitely be able to climb up."

The next morning, Maomao got up early and picked up the gourd of monkey wine from the old monkey's arms.

He picked some more fruits from the tree, tied a cane to his body, and climbed up the mountain. He fell down several times at the beginning, but Maomao came up with an idea. He used the cane to tie him up. The rope holding it was made into a noose. When it encountered a protruding rock, the noose was dug up and hooked, so that it would not be easy to lose its footing. I climbed like this all day, and at night, I finally climbed to the top. On top of the mountain.

Then it came to a fog...]

"What's next?" Xiao Jie asked curiously.

Bai Yuan chuckled, "You have to see what happens next with your own eyes."

As he spoke, his expression suddenly became extremely serious: "Listen boy, this matter is very dangerous. If you don't get it right, you will lose your life. You must remember my words."

Xiao Jie said quickly: "Senior, just ask."

"You keep walking towards the fog in front of you, remember not to stay in the fog for too long, let alone pay attention to the things you encounter in the fog, just rush forward.

After passing through the sea of ​​fog, you will come to a mountain peak. There is a pavilion on the mountain peak, and two people are sitting inside playing chess.

One of the two men was wearing a white robe and the other was wearing a black robe.

Don't talk to those two people, just wait on the side. There is a low table next to the two people, with some food and drinks on it. You put the prepared fruit drinks on it. If the immortal wants to drink, you can serve the wine. When they want to eat the fruit, you pass it to them. When they finish playing chess, you kneel down and ask for help.

Those two people have eaten your fruit and drank your wine, so they will naturally accept your favor, bear your karma, and agree to do you a favor.

Then you can ask me a question.

The problem is-

Why am I so powerful and the monkey king of this valley, yet I still live so unhappy? I think those monkeys are stupid, but I also think humans are too cunning and unreasonable. How can I live happily?

If they ask who asked, just say it was the white ape from the past, and then the two of them will understand.

You bring back to me the answers those two people told you, and then I will naturally teach you my set of disillusionment magic swords. "

Bai Yuan spoke in a fluent tone, and a system prompt appeared in front of Xiao Jie's eyes.

System prompt: Trigger the adventure event [white ape offers fruit, immortal guides the way].
