"This man actually led the Monkey King up the mountain?" Li Bai looked surprised when he heard this.
"Yes, I saw this man leading the Monkey King away with my own eyes!"
"So, this monkey king actually has a master!"
"I don't know if the owner knows it, but the Monkey King is indeed very close to that man. By the way, I heard the man chanting a poem to the Monkey King as he walked."
"Reciting a poem? What poem?" Li Bai was extremely curious and wondered whether the Monkey King was interested in poetry. If that was the case, wouldn't he have a good chance of getting close to the Monkey King?
"Of course I, a woodcutter, don't know what the poem is, but I do remember one line in it very clearly."
"Which sentence?"
"Because I love drinking the most, I often sleep leaning against tree trunks when I'm drunk, so I have a special feeling for that line of poetry. I remember that line is: 'Don't laugh when you are lying drunk on the battlefield.'"
When Li Bai heard this, he blurted out: "Young Lord lying drunk on the battlefield, don't laugh. How many people have fought in ancient times?"
When Dashui heard this, he said excitedly: "Yes, this is the sentence, do you know it?"
Li Bai nodded and said: "This is a poem by senior Wang Han. I have read it before. Could it be that the person who is with the Monkey King is senior Wang Han?"
"I don't know about that!" Dashui Tan said, spreading his hands.
At this time, Sima Heng interjected: "It's amazing that you remember a poem!" After that, he said to Li Bai: "Li Bai, senior Wang Han is ranked 722nd in Tang Ming Pavilion. His Drunken Boxing is famous all over the world, but there is no
I’ve heard that he keeps monkeys.”
"Maybe the Monkey King was not raised by humans, but it should be true that he is related to humans." Zi Yan said suddenly.
"How can you see it?" Wei Zhongkan couldn't help asking.
"Because I think of the vines on the cliff. They are arranged so neatly and must be man-made, and those giant monkeys must have been taught to stand in an orderly manner!"
Li Bai thought about it, nodded and said: "Yes, when the little fairy said this, I also remembered that the monkey's attack on us seems to be chaotic, but after careful consideration, it is also clear-cut, and someone should have taught it."
After hearing what they said, Sima Heng also recalled the fight with the Monkey King, and said thoughtfully: "I fought with the Monkey King for more than ten times, and I also found that it was not a blind fight, but a martial arts move.
!”
"So, there must be someone behind the Monkey King who teaches us. As long as we find this person and explain the situation to him, it shouldn't be difficult to take a drop of the Monkey King's blood and use it to save people." Li Bai analyzed.
"But where is this person now?" Wei Zhongkan's face was full of questions.
Li Bai shook his head, "I don't know either." Then he turned around and asked Dashui: "By the way, Brother Woodcutter, when did you see the man who took away the Monkey King?"
Dashui thought for a while and said: "Half a year ago."
When Li Bai heard this, he said happily: "It seems that this person should be in the cave."
"Why?" Sima Heng said.
"The person who can be so close to the Monkey King must be an outsider. I don't know if he is Senior Wang Han, but generally outsiders like to live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, and do not come out for years. Since it has only been half a year since the last appearance, I
I think most of them are still here."
"But we fought so fiercely with the monkeys and no one came out to stop us?"
"Although the fight was so fierce, we were always at a disadvantage! Since the monkey has the advantage, this person will naturally not show up easily." Li Bai said.
When everyone heard it, it made sense.
Wei Zhongkan asked: "Can we force him to show up now?"
Li Bai pondered and said: "Since the monkey has the upper hand and he doesn't show up, then we will knock the monkey down and he will naturally show up."
"What can you do?"
Li Bai smiled and said: "We said not to hurt monkeys, but we never said not to capture monkeys alive. Please order people to make some big cages and bring more nets. We will start catching monkeys. I don't believe we can't defeat them."
Wei Zhongkan laughed and said, "This method is good. If we can't catch them all in one day, we will catch them for a few more days. Maybe we can catch the Monkey King directly. Then it doesn't matter whether he shows up or not!"
After saying that, he immediately ordered people to start making monkey cages, and sent people to Qingyang County to collect net bags immediately.
An hour later, a hundred large wooden cages were ready, and hundreds of net bags were distributed to everyone.
Everything is ready.
Everyone immediately lifted up the wooden cage and rushed up the mountain in a mighty manner.
Because the trail to the cliff had been opened, they traveled very quickly and were close to the cliff in a short time.
Upon seeing this, the group of monkeys immediately began to attack everyone crazily.
This time everyone had a clear goal, which was to catch more monkeys, so they all took the initiative and used nets to catch the monkeys.
And as soon as a monkey is caught, its hands and feet are immediately tied and thrown into a wooden cage.
The monkeys did not expect that these people would suddenly attack and try to capture them alive. Unprepared, many monkeys were covered by net bags and became "prisoners in cages."
Li Bai's true energy surged, and he was very brave at this moment. He picked up Ling Yun and jumped up and down. He caught many monkeys in a few efforts.
An hour passed and everyone had caught three to four hundred monkeys.
Li Bai and Sima Heng each caught one of the five giant monkeys that came down from the cliff to lead them, and also threw them into wooden cages.
The monkey was used to being free. It had never been locked up like this before. It was angry and frightened, and kept screaming in the wooden cage.
The other three giant monkeys who were not caught saw this and rushed over angrily in an attempt to rescue their companions in the wooden cage. However, when they jumped on the wooden cage and tried to open the door, they were captured by Li Bai and Sima Heng.
and put in a cage.
When the other monkeys saw this, they didn't dare to get closer and all hid in the trees for a while.
In this battle, everyone won a great victory.
Seeing that the situation was great, Li Bai quickly grabbed Sima Heng and Zi Yan, lifted up Ling Yun and rushed straight up the cliff.
As soon as they rushed up the cliff, pieces of gravel came like raindrops. A dozen big monkeys lined up with the Monkey King as the center, throwing gravel at them frantically.
Li Bai used the Zhen Qi shield. The abundant Zhen Qi made the shield extremely hard. The gravel hit the shield and made a "bang bang" sound before falling one after another.
"Li Bai, send me out quickly, I don't believe I can't beat a few monkeys!" Sima Heng shouted.
When Li Bai heard this, he quickly pushed Sima Heng out of the shield. Sima Heng immediately picked up the big phoenix and slammed it into the monkey group.
Zi Yan also said at this time: "Li Bai, send me out too, and I will use Linglong Tower to assist you."
Li Bai was afraid that the monkeys would hurt Zi Yan, so he pushed her out from behind and blocked her with a shield.
As soon as the purple smoke came out of the protective shield, it immediately sang "Linglong Tower", and its drunkenness floated in the air with the singing.
While the monkeys were fighting with Sima Heng, they suddenly felt drunk when they heard about the Linglong Tower.
As soon as the monkey king saw it, he immediately jumped out of the melee with Sima Heng. The two tails touched each other and made a "pop" sound in an attempt to disturb the singing of Linglong Tower.
Li Bai knew the dangers of the Monkey King's two tails, so without thinking too much, he picked up the protective shield and rushed straight towards the Monkey King.
Seeing Li Bai's coming, the Monkey King quickly swung his long tail and hit Li Bai.
The long tail whipped like an iron whip, whizzing on Li Bai's protective shield, making a loud "咈!" sound.
A crack immediately appeared in the zhenqi shield, but Li Bai's zhenqi at this time was several times stronger than before, so the shield was not a serious problem.
