So is there still a close relationship between the general outline and Wen's view of the scenery?
Lin Luoran suddenly felt embarrassed and seeing Bai Xianzi's expression, she didn't want to delve deeper into her intentions either. Lin Luoran could only drop the subject.
At this moment, she saw Little Jin flying into the air with a vigilant look, and Li Xuer's peach was full, running to Lin Luoran's side.
Lin Luoran looked up and saw that it was a group of long-haired monkeys running up from the foot of the mountain, swinging back and forth among the peach trees, running extremely fast.
In fact, this Peach Mountain is the territory of these monkeys. The peaches at the top of the mountain are particularly delicious due to geographical reasons, and sometimes the monkeys can't bear to eat them. First, a little monkey found Lin Luoran and others on the mountain waist, and ran back to report the news, finally bringing the monkey army to kill.
These monkeys came with a mighty force, but were afraid of Xiaojin's power and stopped at a distance. One leading monkey bared its teeth and seemed unwilling to give up. After thinking for a while, it surprisingly led the way in plucking peaches from the trees and throwing them over like Lin Luoran and another person.
The monkey army followed suit, picking peaches and throwing them over, launching a long-range attack, trying to drive Lin Luo Ran and the others away.
For a time, only the sound of monkeys chattering and shouting could be heard, peach branches and leaves flying all over the sky, the monkey army's ammunition was sufficient, and their offensive really had some momentum.
These peaches naturally couldn't hit Lin Luoran, but they enraged Little Jin. It spread its claws and was about to grab a monkey and tear it apart when Lin Luoran stopped it.
There were bundles of immortal ropes, and the peach was such a small thing that it couldn't hit Li Xue'er. She also thought these monkeys were cute and very much approved of Lin Luoran's action to stop Xiao Jin.
The monkeys saw the little golden hair get angry, the leading monkey blew a whistle, and the monkey army threw away the peaches in their hands and ran away with the wind.
"Sister, it's really fun, let's follow them and take a look at the monkeys' nest?"
Li Xuer was a playful and innocent child, Lin Luoran came to the secret realm also to broaden her horizons, so she agreed with her proposal.
Ling Xue'er was still capable of such simple movements, so there was no need to trouble Xiao Jin. The two were jumping on the treetops, following closely behind the monkey army at a distance, neither too fast nor too slow.
The monkey army would occasionally turn its head to look back, seeing the two men and the crane still following, which was very infuriating. They would bare their teeth and threaten them from time to time, and ran even faster.
Lin Luo Ran and Lin Luoran chased after a mountain, the dense forest affected their speed. When they opened up again, the monkey army was gone. Li Xue Er was anxious, Lin Luo Ran signaled her to be quiet.
Xiao Jin had been monitoring from high altitude all along, and now his role was revealed. Following Xiao Jin's direction, the two of them chased after again.
Arrived at a strange rock mountain stream, Lin Luoran first heard a rushing sound of water, pushed aside the branches and saw a large waterfall, not even a monkey was seen, but Xiao Jin was hovering above the waterfall and didn't leave.
Lin Luoran glanced at Li Xuer and they both said in unison:
"Water Curtain Cave?"
"Water Curtain Cave!"
Haha, it turns out that everyone had the same idea. It seems that Journey to the West is still useful after all. Lin Luoran led the way forward again and indeed a group of monkey troops with water droplets on their bodies rushed out from the waterfall.
Look at them holding stones in their hands, with a serious face. Lin Luoran touched her face, she and Li Xuer were just being childish for a moment. Was it that these monkeys brought too much pressure?
"Never mind, we'd better not disturb them if we force our way in." Just as Lin Luoran was about to persuade Li Xuer to leave, a tall and large old monkey emerged from the waterfall, with white hair and beard, and a small monkey supporting him, walking upright like an elderly human.
Looking at the old monkey, it seems that his body is not good, and he is still like Lin Luoran and others who are making a bow, without any difference in etiquette. Lin Luoran was really stunned!
The old monkey swayed back and forth, making a gesture of invitation to them. Lin Luo Ran didn't want to leave immediately either. After all, since the old monkey came out, although the monkey army was still holding stones, their faces were much less guarded.
People who grew up reading the Four Great Classical Novels, who wouldn't yearn for that beautiful Monkey King of the Mountain of Flowers and Fruits? Li Xuer is a representative of being heartless and ruthless, only knowing to follow Lin Luoran with her eyes on the horse's head, but in the end, Lin Luoran still couldn't suppress the longing in her heart, hinting at Little Jin to wait for them nearby, she went first, Li Xuer followed behind, really following that old monkey into the cave under the waterfall.
Through the waterfall, Lin Luo's hair was covered with water droplets, making the crystal-like snowflake ornament in her hair even more dazzling and radiant.
This seemed to be a naturally formed passageway, as near the waterfall, this three-person-wide passageway was wet and slippery, requiring Lin Luo and Ran to lift their skirts to walk through.
The old monkey walked ahead, leading the way, and from time to time turned his head back to wait for them. When Lin Luoran saw that he was walking anxiously, she felt very distressed, so she deliberately slowed down her pace, making the old monkey slow down as well in order to wait for them.
The old monkey seemed to know Lin Luoran's thoughts, and deliberately turned around, waving its hand in a very human-like manner, as if saying it was okay, but also started walking slowly, matching Lin Luoran's movements perfectly.
The two monkeys walked in the corridor for a long time, Li Xiang'er was a little afraid of such a quiet environment, Lin Luoran felt keenly that according to the direction, they seemed to be walking towards the belly of the mountain?
Was the old nest of the monkeys built in the middle of the mountain? Lin Luo thought that such an environment would be dull, but after turning two corners, the old monkey pushed open a stone door with great effort, and Lin Luo felt a sudden increase in light.
Following the old monkey into the stone gate, the scenery that appeared before her made even the calm and self-controlled Lin Luoran feel a sense of wonder.
Is this a masterpiece of nature's craftsmanship?!
This is a very spacious cave, or it's more suitable to say that it's a magnificent underground palace! It's roughly 200-300 meters in circumference, and 10 meters high. The top is actually a huge hole, and the sunlight shines through, making it not dark or gloomy at all!
A milky white stalactite hangs down from the top of the cave, in the middle of which stands a large tree, with no one knowing how many years it has been growing. The branches and leaves are lush, the main trunk is about 4-5 meters thick, and the canopy extends all the way to the top of the cave where sunlight comes in, so the sunlight is sparse and shines on the stalactite, casting a dappled pattern of light and shadow, with an unreal beauty.
As for the trunk with a diameter of four or five meters, it was hollowed out to make a house, and many small windows were opened. The old monkey invited them to go into the wooden house!
The old monkey made a "please" gesture with his hands, and Lin Luo Ran and Li Xue Er walked in.
The wooden house was dry and refreshing, with a hint of fruity fragrance, not like a place where a monkey would live. Okay, actually this old monkey gave Lin Luoran the feeling that, apart from not speaking human language, there was no difference between him and humans.
Two monkeys sat on the wooden chair, and soon heard the monkey outside the wooden house calling. Looking out of the window, it turned out that those monkeys also came in one after another. Not only that, but they also held various fruits in their hands, which were delivered by a few leading monkeys.
Inside there are peaches, pears, bananas, and even some fruits that Lin Luo and Ran have never seen before.
When eating fruit, the old monkey coughed again. Lin Luoran was speechless and looked at its white hair with pity, so she couldn't help but gaze at it with clear eyes...
"Hmm, this old ape's body is full of spiritual energy, could it be that legendary demonic cultivator?"
