Fan Yi frowned, thought for a moment, and suddenly asked: "Your Majesty, I wonder why you are fighting with the orangutans? Can you tell me?"
The baboon king said: "Why not? Isn't it just for that spiritual bead?"
"Lingzhu? What spirit bead?" Upon hearing this, Fan Yi suddenly became energetic.
In order to win over Fan Yi, the baboon king had to explain patiently.
"Speaking of this spiritual pearl, we started talking about it three days ago. There is a waterfall seven or eight miles away from our baboon orchard. Below the waterfall is a pool covering an area of several acres. The water in the pool merges into a river.
We are in the orangutan forest, and ten miles away from the waterfall is the orangutan cave. Several of our tribesmen were playing by the pool, and saw a glowing bead in the pool flowing into the river with the water. By coincidence, the orangutans also saw it, and the two sides fought for
There was a big fight for the bead, and later each of them called many companions to come. Unfortunately, these orangutans not only snatched away the glowing bead there, but also kidnapped more than ten of our kin, and even issued a message asking us to surrender.
They can only be released if they produce a hundred kilograms of fresh fruit, otherwise they will be forced to do hard labor." After saying this, the baboon bared his teeth angrily, and the other baboons also made a loud noise, shouting for revenge.
Fan Yi was stunned after hearing this and said: "A spiritual bead? Why is this spiritual bead in the pool? Are there any clams in the pool?"
The baboon king thought for a while and said: "No, there are just some fish, shrimps and crabs. At least that's what we saw."
Fan Yidao: "It's very strange! Did someone accidentally lose it? Or was it created by heaven and earth?"
The baboon king said angrily: "You don't care if it's a match made in heaven!? Just say something nice and ask if you can help us!"
Fan Yi thought for a moment and said: "Okay. But I think even if I don't take action, I can still rescue your clan!"
The baboon king sneered and said: "Friends, don't boast! You are a human race, why don't you take action to rescue our tribe from the orangutans? I think you are only at the middle level of the foundation building stage, and you are not at the elixir formation stage.
Hum hum."
Fan Yi sighed: "Whether it works or not, we can only try."
The baboon king looked disbelieving and said: "Okay, if this is the case, we baboons should thank you Taoist friend deeply."
…
Fan Yi followed the baboon and the black ape to the waterhole.
Looking up, I saw a waterfall about tens of feet high falling from the mountain peak, as if the Milky Way was pouring down from the sky.
The water was so powerful that a deafening sound could be heard in the distance.
As we walked in, we were hit by a moist vapor.
Fan Yi walked to the edge of the pool and probed his spiritual sense into it.
After a long while, he took back his spiritual consciousness.
Fan Yi's face showed a solemn look, because his spiritual sense penetrated into the bottom of the pool several feet deep and found that except for some ordinary fish, shrimps and crabs, there were no monsters in the pool.
So where did that spiritual bead come from?
Did it fall from the sky?
Fan Yi was puzzled.
The baboon king came over and said to Fan Yi, "Fellow Daoist Fan, what are you thinking about?"
Fan Yi shook his head and said, "It's nothing."
At this moment, roars of filial piety suddenly came from the forest above the waterfall.
Looking up, I saw countless orangutans emerging from the forest. Some stood on the branches and shook wildly, roaring while shaking; some violently beat their chests with their fists to demonstrate to the baboons.
The orangutans looked at the baboons and black apes and howled one after another.
With a roar, the orangutans emerged from the forest and ran rapidly along the hillside.
After a stick of incense, the group of orangutans ran down the hillside and came to the other side of the pool.
From the group of orangutans walked a huge orangutan that was several feet taller than a human. It was obviously the orangutan king.
This orangutan has very dark hair, as bright as burning fire, with green eyes and thick limbs.
It walked slowly to the front and glanced at the baboon and the black ape.
When it saw Fan Yi, its eyes narrowed slightly, obviously a little surprised.
Fan Yi stared at it without fear.
"Old baboon, what do you want to do today? Do you still want to fight?" The orangutan king said loudly to the baboon king with a mocking look on his face.
The orangutans behind heard this and laughed loudly.
The baboons were angry and anxious, and roared in unison.
Not to be outdone, the orangutans also barked wildly at the baboons.
Fan Yi's ears were almost deafened.
The orangutan king twisted his neck, stretched his waist, and said arrogantly to the baboon king: "How about it, old baboon, do you want to be beaten? Say something!"
Looking at the black ape, it said disdainfully: "Even if you bring in reinforcements, I'm not afraid! We will sweep you away with the power of our orangutan family!"
He looked at Fan Yi again and said: "Old baboon, you are so proud that you actually invited a human!? If he has any means, just use it!"
Fan Yi smiled slightly and said loudly: "King Orangutan, please don't take action yet. How about you listen to me first?"
