The mandrill in the leather robe was addicted to gambling. He used a 30-pound copper vat as a dice cup to bet with Li Muye and Bai Qi. If he lost, he would take something out of the wooden box under his feet. Without words, gambling equipment and stakes are its language.
Li Muye was in a hurry to get over, but the mandrill blocked the bridge with a bet. If he wanted to get over, he had to either bet with it or fight it hard.
There was more than one mandrill in the cave. When Li Muye noticed this, the two of them were already surrounded by dozens of mandrills approaching quietly.
This creature is extremely talented and powerful. Once it reaches adulthood, its endurance and absolute strength far exceed those of ordinary humans. He has the ability to tear apart ferocious beasts with his bare hands. Even Kung Fu masters who have trained hard and evolved their physical abilities may not be able to beat them. This is the innate advantage of the species, and the advantage of human beings lies in intelligence and the use of weapons.
Faced with such a situation, even someone as strong as Brother Xiaoye would not dare to choose to break through easily. So I had to gamble with this thing for the time being.
Bai Qi is not good at this, and winning two games in a row is more of a fluke. Li Muye wanted to play with the mandrill in his place, but as soon as he was about to change, the mandrill in the leather robe became angry. He glared, bared his fangs, and sprayed a foul smell from his mouth. Brother Xiao Ye let out a hissing roar.
By the way, the reading app I am using recently has many book sources, complete books, and fast updates!
The mandrills all around echoed, and the atmosphere in the noisy cave suddenly became tense. Not only is this thing powerful, its movements are sharper, its ears and eyes are sensitive, and its reaction speed is not inferior to that of the top masters. If it really starts to attack, Li Muye can barely cope with it for a while, but Xiaobai will be torn apart by them in an instant.
Li Muye hurriedly took a step back, and then the mandrill stopped all movements and sat back down. He glared at Brother Xiao Ye warily, and seemed to realize that Brother Xiao Ye was a strong enemy, so he was a little worried.
Bai Qi had no choice but to pick up the copper vat and shake it for the third time. This time, he didn't have the same luck as last time. He only came out with one o'clock, one three o'clock and one four o'clock.
The gameplay of mandrill dice is very simple, just compare the size of the points. The three dice only have eight points, so the losing area is large.
As expected, the leather-robed mandrill looked happy when he saw it, scratching his ears and cheeks, showing a sense of ridicule. This thing has no self-cultivation and expresses emotions and anger. Although it has a little human wisdom, it still has the nature of an animal, similar to a naughty child who acts entirely on instinct.
It was the mandrill's turn to throw the dice. The guy proudly picked up the copper vat and shook it a few times. He lifted the lid and saw that the number was indeed higher than Bai Qi's.
Bai Qi gave it the Tianhuang stone he had won before. The leather-robed mandrill suffered. Rolled the dice again, this time the number was even smaller than last time. The mandrill became even more excited. After shaking the tank, he lifted the lid and saw that he had won again. Bai Qi gave it the short sword from before. The leather-robed mandrill put the dagger back into the wooden box. Suddenly he picked up the watermelon-sized copper hammer on the desk and made a gesture at Bai Qi's head. It seems to mean that if you lose again this time, you will get a hammer from it.
Li Muye wanted to take Xiao Bai's place again, but the mandrill immediately came over with a dissatisfied glare. It seems to mean it's not your turn yet.
"Friends in the house, please come out and say a word!" Li Muye observed quietly and heard the breathing of someone in the house. That person's breath was heavier than the fine and long breathing rhythm of these mandrills. At this time, if Bai Qi loses another round, the leather-robed mandrill will hit someone with a hammer. In this case, the situation will inevitably develop in a direction that Brother Xiaoye does not want to see.
At the critical moment, Brother Xiao Ye shouted to the people in the room, hoping to find an opportunity to reverse the situation.
Bai Qi hesitated while holding the copper vat. The mandrill in the leather robe was a little anxious. He bared his teeth and screamed weirdly at him, apparently urging him to shake faster.
At this moment, a woman's voice suddenly came from the house, gentle: "Dalang, wait a minute, I'll listen to what this man has to say."
The leather-robed mandrill immediately calmed down.
It turns out that there is a Kun family in the house.
Li Muye said: "Senior, who is the Xunlongmen?"
"You don't care who I am." The person in the house said very rudely: "I have thought about my Naihe Bridge. Either I can win with my brother convinced, or I can fight with my own ability. You outsiders, all of you... He has a sharp tooth and a bad mouth, and he is just like those old bastards from Xunlongmen. If my uncle hadn't wanted to use you for entertainment, he would not have allowed you two little bastards to survive until now."
"Aren't you from Xunlongmen?" Li Muye asked in surprise.
"The bastards are the ones looking for the Dragon Gate!" The woman cursed loudly: "Those old bastards drugged us and trapped us here for thirty years. I wish I could skin them one by one and bleed them to relieve my sorrow. ." Then he said: "Little bastard, what do you mean by mentioning them? Do you want to get close to them?"
Li Muye said: "I'll tell you the truth, I'm just here to deal with Xunlongmen. You give me a chance to let us go. I guarantee that after today, the main altar of Xunlongmen will disappear. If you are poisoned, , I can also find the detoxifying hand to resolve it for you."
"Funny words, why do you dare to say that?" The woman in the house sneered and suddenly blew a sharp whistle.
The moment the sharp sound rang out, a mandrill that was hanging upside down on the rock wall above Li Muye suddenly jumped down, and a pair of black and iron-like claws suddenly dug towards Brother Xiaoye's neck.
Li Muye stepped aside, and at the same time he flew up and kicked the mandrill in the buttocks with 60% force.
With a snap, the mandrill was kicked and flew several meters sideways. He jumped up from the ground, scratched his ears and cheeks angrily, stared at the scarlet eyes, and rushed forward.
Li Muye once again avoided the sharp edge and grabbed the mandrill's left foot. With a strong swing, he turned the thing's huge body of more than 200 kilograms into a big windmill. He shouted in a loud voice: "If you try again, I will do it." Not so polite anymore.”
"Hmph!" The woman in the house said coldly, "Even if you have some real ability, you and this idiot just want to fight the old immortals from Xunlongmen. I won't believe it even if you say hell."
Li Muye put down the mandrill that was knocked unconscious and said: "I don't need you to believe it, and I don't expect you to just let us go. I just want you to give me a chance to replace my nephew with your eldest son." Lang bet a few times, if I win based on my ability, I will naturally be qualified to pass by you."
"I don't think you are like the guests of Xunlongmen. Those old bastards will only lure people here when they want to harm others." The woman pondered for a while and said, "Okay, I'll give you a chance to let you go." You make a few bets with my uncle. If you can win and convince him, I will let you go. If you are not good enough, you will have to stay here and let us eat your brains. If you die, don't blame us for being cruel. This is what those old bastards did to my children."
Li Muye said: "It's useless to talk nonsense, let's talk based on our ability." With that, he took Bai Qi's place and sat at the gaming table.
The woman whistled, and the leather-robed mandrill readily accepted Li Muye's change of general.
Brother Ono held the copper cylinder with one hand, shook it casually twice, felt the speed and sound of the dice turning inside, and then put it down with a slight shake. Throwing dice is too childish for the Grand Master Taiding who comes from a thousand families.
Three sixes, there is no doubt about winning.
The leather-robed mandrill was willing to admit defeat and gave the field yellow stone to Brother Xiaoye. Then there were cold steel daggers, brand-name lighters, pistols, and even a pink diamond the size of a table tennis ball... Li Muye accepted all comers and put them all into his treasure bag. In this way, they won the Thirteen Shops in a row. The leather-robed mandrill on the opposite side was dejected after losing. The wooden box had bottomed out, but there was no hope of winning back.
"You really have some skills." The woman's voice came out again: "Although there is little hope, it is better than despair. Come over here and I will tell you the secrets I know. I hope it can be helpful to you."
Pipaozi Mandrill moved the table away, and Li Muye and Bai Qi stepped onto the stone bridge and came outside the house.
The door opened automatically from the inside. When the two men walked in, they saw a woman sitting in the middle. She was staggeringly plump, with a red face, protruding buck teeth, and hairy cheeks. She was shockingly ugly. If she were to meet her unexpectedly at night, the faint of heart would be frightened to death by her majestic appearance.
"Don't be surprised. I'm not some wild monster. Just like you, I'm a human being." The woman said, "It's just that when I'm in a crowd, no one wants to treat me like a human being."
Li Muye could imagine what a woman like her had gone through. Being ugly is not a sin, but there are indeed too many people in this world who are accustomed to judging others by their appearance. When she looks like this, she is destined to be hated by gods and ghosts. You can imagine how much abuse you have to go through, how much ridicule and eye-rolling you have to endure. Even direct harm.
"The look in your eyes makes me feel comfortable." The woman stared at Brother Xiaoye and said, "There is no contempt, nor is there any hypocritical and cheap sympathy."
Li Muye said: "Strong people don't need sympathy, but to be honest, you do look a bit unique."
The woman said: "What you said only represents people's opinions. In the eyes of the mandrills outside, I am the most beautiful goddess."
Li Muye said: "Life is short. As long as you live happily, you don't need to care about other people's criticisms. Only those with low self-esteem will let themselves live in the mouths of others."
The woman said: "You are really good at coaxing people with your mouth."
Li Muye said: "You need to lie to coax people, but I am just good at telling the truth that is not annoying."
The woman said, "Let's get to know each other. My name is Shen Hongxia, from Hubei." She added, "There's no need to tell me your name. I'll never see you again. I'm not interested in knowing. I think you don't need someone who remembers your name." "
Li Muye said: "I will remember your name."
Shen Hongxia said: "It's just a title, but actually I don't care that much."
Li Muye said: "You just said that you have been trapped here for thirty years?"
Shen Hongxia nodded and said: "Yes, my home was near Shennongjia. When I was in junior high school, I met Dalang and followed him into the mountains... Later, the people from Xunlongmen found the mountains and used medicine to catch all the mandrills. , On the one hand, they catch the mandrills to eat their brains, and on the other hand, they guard the door for Xunlongmen." Although these mandrills are powerful, their IQs are limited after all. Shen Hongxia is just an ordinary girl, so how can she be one of those from Xunlongmen? Rivals of the old guys. For Lao Jianghu, if he is well prepared, it is actually easy to deal with them.
"Is there a shortcut to directly enter Panlong Cave?"
"Yes, but you have missed it, and I don't know the mechanism that is turned on." Shen Hongxia said: "Under normal circumstances, you can only go through the Lost Immortal Cave, Qinggui Cave and Five Poison Cave. You two, uncle and nephew, come in When we were there, we discovered that few people came here. Although the mandrills are aliens, they also have some humanity. They are very lonely on weekdays, so it is inevitable that they have developed some quirks. My brother loves gambling. The one you threw It's Sanlang who is the most aggressive. According to past practice, even if you win against Dalang, you will continue to face challenges from other mandrills until you are beaten to death."
"I see." Li Muye asked again, "Do you know what's in the Five Poison Cave?" (End of Chapter)
