Chapter 103 Prepare for a rainy day

[First update, there will be two more later.]

At dawn, the sun finally penetrated the snow clouds and flashed a little lonely luster on the building wrapped in crystal thick ice in 23 cities of ape.

There are still few pedestrians on the streets, and the apes in this city don't seem to like this icy climate.

The painting halberd held the unique wooden warm cup here, and the hot temperature came from his hand. After being swept, there was still a little snow foam on the street.

Looking for it, I finally found the only tea stall in the low corner in front of me, which may be the only tea stall in the 23rd city of the ape.

The old ape in a heavy cotton coat greeted him attentively, sat down with a smile, took the frozen milk given by the old ape, occasionally looked up and talked to the particularly simple but talkative old ape, and then quickly glanced at the direction of the gate of the main palace diagonally opposite - three human beings in white cloak walked in the greeting of the servant. .

"Grandpa, your business here is not good." The painting halberd shook the porcelain bowl, and the fresh milk in the bowl was not frozen in this cold weather. Maybe it had been specially treated and condensed into a trembling glue.

"It's really not good, and it will be enough to make a living. But the human master who enters and exits the city owner's mansion likes it very much. He is very generous, and the money he gives every time is enough to squander for decades. The old ape smiled and rubbed his frozen fingers.

"Is it a big merchant on the island?"

"I don't know, I don't know."

"I don't know?" The hand of the halberd shaking the porcelain bowl paused.

The old ape sat down on the halberd table with dry smoke in his heart. The snow-white smoke circle was particularly choked in the cold weather of the ape 23 cities, as if he fell into memories. He said for a long time, "I lived 233 years old, and I have seen those human masters 23 times in total."

The halberd stared at the frozen milk in the bowl and was slightly surprised. Then he frowned slightly and asked, "Have you been the same person for more than 200 years?"

"No, no." The old ape gently put the dry smoke on the table and waved his hand quickly. "Every time they come, people are different. There are men and women, but they don't like to talk. They come every ten years. It's very regular. I don't know if there is any relationship between them."

After listening to this, he smiled and talked a few more words with the old ape. When the gate of the city owner's mansion slowly opened, he got up, thought about it for a while, took out a rosary of silver, put it on the table, and then took the warm cup of the inn, passed through the beautiful ice crystal complex of the twenty-three ape city, and returned to the inconspicuous room. Inn.

Standing by the bed in the room, changing into pure white clothes and white cloaks, silently watching the team coming out of the city master's mansion and walking out of the city.

Then he flattened his clothes, put on his hood, and quietly went out of the inn to catch up far away.

......

......

The vast snowfield outside the 23 cities of the ape reflects its dazzling light in the rare sunlight.

The 30th ape who came out of the city master's mansion slowly walked in the direction of the Holy Mountain, and the painting halberd followed silently with the half-hearted 'introduction' skills learned from the iron man.

Although he promised to go to the Holy Mountain, he did not completely believe what Yuan Fei said, so he decided to follow the owner of the motorcade. Unless he fully knew that the withered grass with the fluctuation of 'heaven' was coming from the Holy Mountain, he would immediately repent and escape from this place with Feng'er and others.

This group of apes walked for half a day on the indistinguishable snowfield, and then reached the foothills of the holy mountain where half of the peaks were buried in the clouds, and then entered without hesitation.

The painting halberd narrowed its eyes and lay on the snow, allowing the white mantle to cover the whole body, just like all the hunters in the 23 cities of ape cities, quietly hiding their bodies - because the ape family was born in this five-e elements disordered space, it is congenitally insufficient, whether it is the sea of air or the sea of knowledge, it is impossible to have true element or divine consciousness. Coupled with the ointment provided by Yuan Fei that can cover the breath, he is not worried that someone will find it - unless the "heavenly Tao" who may exist on the holy mountain comes down the mountain.

The painting halberd is waiting lonely on the snowfield in the bright moon.

The snowfield where the snow has stopped is not so dark. In the bright moonlight and the low starlight that seems to be at your fingertips, the snowfield even reflects a soft white light, which is not bright, but enough to see.

From Si to Hai, the cedar forest at the foot of the Holy Mountain suddenly came from the rustling sound, and the group of apes in white clothes slowly came down from the Holy Mountain.

The three leaders of the team lowered their heads and walked silently. The old man had so many wrinkles that he couldn't even see his facial features, and his expression was a little strange.

The painting halberd frowned and watched them go farther and farther, and his heart tightened slightly. The 32nd person went up. Why did only 29 people come down?

It was not until this pedestrian disappeared from sight that the painting halberd restrained his mind and did not continue to track it. They must have returned to the 23 cities of ape.

There is no need to elaborate on the subsequent process. The three people in the convoy returned to the inn, and the other apes returned to the quiet and terrible city mansion at midnight. After that, in the dead of night, the old man of the motorcade secretly found a wasteland in the city to bury the withered grass.

The halberd is coiled on the bench with one leg, with his chin in his right hand, and looks at the bright but lonely night in the bright moonlight of 23 cities of the ape through the room.

Now it can be basically concluded that there are indeed people with 'the way of heaven' on the holy mountain, and what Yuan Fei said is 30% more credible.

But he thought carefully for a while. If his 'Heavenly Way' is 'dead', then the 'Heaven Way' that can turn Hao Tuo Grass into a glorious and withered grass will have a faint smell of 'eternal' - he picked up the object from the long river of time, put it on the bank, and looked at the continuous waves of history in the long river.

For this reason, even if Haotuo grass turns into ashes in the flames, it refuses to grow old grass leaves to become yellow like autumn weeds - maybe now it is time to call this yellow grass leaves proud of dead grass.

The old man in the motorcade must have taken Haotuo grass to the holy mountain, but why did he take it down? Why are they buried everywhere in the city? Looking at the old man's trembling appearance, he seemed to be extremely afraid of this lethal weed.

Shake his head and throw these questions into the silent night of the 23Ape City.

Looking up and looking at the clear starry sky through the ice window, there seems to be thick clouds rolling in the far away. It seems that tomorrow will be another snowy day.

He couldn't help thinking of Yuan Fei. He was curious about how the female monkey knew that he was being hunted down by hundreds of people on the island.

No matter how big the matter on the human island is, it is unlikely to spread to other islands, especially on the demon island - the gap between people and demons cannot be made clear in a few words.

On the pumice, the civilization of these apes is basically based on the years of human island tourists. Although they do not reject foreign populations like other islands, the 'demon stars' that are making a lot of noise on human islands have only aroused a very small splash here. , he quickly drowned in the huge waves that the owner of the ape city was seriously injured by unknown human beings.
