The immortal white ape has been listening to Taoism for 30 years

Chapter 20 Late Night Visitors
Taoist priest Yu Zhen didn't say much in depth.

Although Ye Cheng wanted to ask further, he finally held back.

There will definitely be opportunities to learn more in the future.

In fact, he now has an idea to take a look at the library of Chongyang Temple.

It is said that the library of Chongyang Temple contains countless classics accumulated over hundreds of years.

He has basically learned all the common words in this world now, and he has no problem reading books.

He wants to learn about the world through reading books.

Unfortunately, he is just a white ape.

It is too difficult to enter the library.

It's one thing to be able to read and read, but it's another thing to take the initiative to read and have the ability to think for yourself.

Ye Cheng can let others see his intelligence, which makes it easier to do some things, but he absolutely cannot see the human thinking behind the intelligence.

This is a form of self-protection on his part.

There is no way, this world can be without wildlife protection laws.

Even if there was a white ape with human consciousness, in the previous life, it would have been treated as a guinea pig for scientific research.

this day.

Taoist priest Yu Zhen brought back a box.

"Xiao Bai, there are many books here, which should be suitable for you to read now."

she said with a smile.

Xiaobai reads books every day, and those enlightenment books are almost worn out.

So she thought she could improve the reading difficulty for Xiaobai.

Being able to teach Xiaobai how to read and read gave her a full sense of accomplishment.

Ye Cheng suddenly looked happy and quickly opened the box. As expected, there were many books inside.

He took out a book at random and after flipping through it, he immediately became concerned.

The content of this book is still very simple.

In the previous life, it was equivalent to the level of elementary school extracurricular books.

It has moved away from the initial enlightenment stage.

He looked at the other books one by one. There were many types of books, covering all aspects.

Although they are relatively simple, they are still helpful to Ye Cheng in understanding the world.

Although he cannot enter the library of Chongyang Temple, he can ask Taoist Priest Yu Zhen to borrow some?

After opening his mind, Ye Cheng was in a good mood, so he picked up a book, sat on the recliner, and started reading with pleasure.

In this world without the Internet, sometimes we are really too busy and we have to find something to occupy our time.

Time flies.

In a blink of an eye, another year has passed.

It has been more than two years since he came to this world.

Ye Cheng, who is one year older, looks stronger.

Standing up, he is almost 1.7 meters tall. He is extremely tall and bulging muscles can be seen all over his body.

Among the apes, it is definitely a giant ape.

After all, he practices swordsmanship and ape striking every day, which not only improves his swordsmanship but also his physical fitness.

During this year, he rarely left the bamboo forest, only occasionally going out for a walk with Taoist Priest Yu Zhen.

He doesn't get bored either.

After all, I still read books every day.

The properties of the house have been slowly filled up.

"Xiao Bai, I'm reading a book."

Taoist Master Hong Jiu walked into the courtyard and saw Ye Cheng lying on a bamboo chair, concentrating on reading a book. He immediately smiled and said hello.

Ye Cheng showed off the book in his hand to Master Hong Jiu, grinned, and tried his best to look like an ape.

Only in front of Taoist Priest Yu Zhen, he was not so cautious.

But in front of outsiders, he can't be too careless.

"Xiaobai is really good. Are you starting to read this kind of book?"

Taoist Master Hong Jiu was extremely surprised, and then casually threw a Qi and Blood Pill over.

Every time he saw Xiaobai, he would habitually give him Qi and Blood Pills.

Ye Cheng took the Qi and Blood Pills, threw them into his mouth, and started chewing.

Now Qi and Blood Pills are just snacks to him.

At this time, Taoist priest Yu Zhen walked out of the house.

"Second Senior Brother, why are you here?"

Yu Zhendao asked with a smile.

"The higher ups have assigned us another mission to guard the road. Let me inform you that it is urgent and we will leave in the afternoon."

Master Hong Jiu said.

"Didn't I just do a road-keeping mission three months ago?"

Taoist priest Yu Zhen was extremely surprised.

"The world is getting more and more chaotic now, so it's normal for the number of Tao-keeping tasks to increase. At least half of the Taoist masters in the temple are now outside. Moreover, I heard from the senior sister that the superiors plan to hand over some simple Tao-keeping tasks to senior Taoist priests do it.”

Master Hong Jiu said.

In the past, Taoist missions were only assigned to Taoist masters.

As for the Taoist priests in the temple, they generally do not arrange Taoist missions.

The Taoist-level strength is basically below the third level of Qi Realm. They are not strong and the danger is too high, making it difficult to complete the task of guarding the Tao.

"Are you so nervous?"

Priest Yu Zhen was very surprised.

Originally, the Taoist master's task of guarding the Tao was basically once a year.

But it seems to be becoming more frequent recently.

I only did it once three months ago, and now I have been assigned the task of guarding the road.

"Well, it may be more tense in the future, and this time our mission of guarding the road will be led by senior sister."

Taoist Master Hong Jiu nodded and said.

"Senior Sister is also going to be dispatched?"

Taoist priest Yu Zhen was even more surprised.

The senior sister is an expert at the artistic conception level, and it must not be easy for the senior sister to be able to carry out a task of guarding the law.

"Yes, but it was Senior Sister who took the initiative to lead the team, because this mission of guarding the road is more dangerous, and Senior Sister is worried about our safety."

Master Hong Jiu nodded and said.

"With Senior Sister leading the team, there should be no danger."

Taoist priest Yu Zhen breathed a sigh of relief and had blind worship for the senior sister.

in the afternoon.

Taoist priest Yu Zhen went on a mission with the others.

Ye Cheng stood on a big tree by the lake and watched a group of people riding away on the road in the distance.

For the next while, he would be alone again.

Fortunately, Taoist Priest Yu Zhen brought him a batch of books yesterday, so he was able to pass the time for a while.

Back in the bamboo house, Ye Cheng looked at the Baoxiang rat spinning in the bamboo cage.

This little guy is always looking for an opportunity to escape.

There were bite marks on the bamboo cages.

"Little guy, it's just you and I again."

Ye Cheng opened the bamboo cage, reached in, and grabbed the Baoxiang Rat that couldn't dodge inside. Then he sat on the bamboo chair, reading a book while holding Baoxiang Rat and stroking its smooth and soft body. The hair was just combed out.

It has now become a habit for him to pet Baoxiang rats.

If I don't masturbate for a day, my whole body will feel uncomfortable.

Moreover, the scent of Baoxiang Rat is very good and seems to have a refreshing effect.

At least when he was reading and smelling the fragrance, he didn't feel sleepy at all.

Baoxiang Shu lay motionless in Ye Cheng's arms.

When Ye Cheng stroked it for the first time, it showed its teeth and wanted to bite Ye Cheng.

But after being dealt with by Ye Cheng several times, the Baoxiang Rat no longer dared to do so.

into the night.

Ye Cheng was lying on the bamboo bed.

A slight snoring sounded.

In his previous life, he often suffered from insomnia and his sleep quality was very poor.

But after being reborn into the white ape, he found that he could fall asleep just by touching the bed, and he could sleep until dawn without dreaming in between.

squeak.
Suddenly, the Baoxiang rat lying next to Ye Cheng seemed to be disturbed by something and began to scream.

Ye Cheng suddenly opened his eyes.

He is very sensitive to the sound of Baoxiang rat.

So I woke up immediately.

Just when he was about to touch the Baoxiang rat, he suddenly stopped, his ears moved slightly, and he vaguely heard movement in the bamboo forest outside.

Why would anyone come here so late?

Could it be that Taoist Priest Yu Zhen came back in the middle of the night?

in the bamboo forest.

Two black shadows appeared.

The weather is good tonight. The full moon hangs high in the sky, and the moonlight shines down, illuminating the entire bamboo forest hazily, as if it is covered with a thin layer of silver gauze.

"It should be here."

"The person who lives here is Yu Zhen, a female disciple of An Zhenren, the chief sage of Dange Pavilion. She has been transferred to participate in the task of guarding the Tao. There is also a white ape here, which was raised by the Taoist master Yu Zhen. I heard that He is very smart and can read and read."

"Haha, it's just a rumor. How smart can a beast be, and also be able to read and read?"

"Although the rumors are not credible, we still have to guard against it." "We just need to keep our voices down. If the white ape is alerted, we can just deal with it casually."

"We try not to alert others and leave traces."

"Yes, then let's search first."

Two black figures were talking in low voices.

After a while, the two dispersed and searched for something around the bamboo house.

At this moment, inside the bamboo house.

Ye Cheng had already covered Baoxiang Shu's mouth to prevent it from making squeaking sounds.

He calmed down and tried to keep his snoring sound.

However, his other hand had already touched the Wuwu Sword.

Sneaking into the bamboo forest in the middle of the night, committing adultery or stealing, he is definitely not a good person.

Taoist priest Yu Zhen is not here, and he is just a white ape here. He is weak and weak, and it is really dangerous.

He was motionless now, pretending to be still asleep, and he didn't dare to go out to check.

He was just a white ape with the second level of aura, and he didn't want to cause trouble.

This is inside the Double Ninth Festival Temple, so it should be difficult for outsiders to come in.

It is very likely that they are people from the Chongyang Temple.

If it is someone from the outside, the risk will be even greater. If you dare to break into the Chongyang Temple in the middle of the night, it is impossible without strong strength.

Probably several hours passed, and finally there was no movement outside.

The person must have left.

Ye Cheng couldn't help secretly heaving a sigh of relief.

During this time, his spirit was under high stress.

He no longer felt sleepy and stayed up until dawn. Ye Cheng hugged Baoxiang Shu and tiptoed out of the house.

It's quite quiet outside.

There was only the sound of birds chirping.

He walked around a few times outside the hospital and found traces left by some people.

Of course, if he was paying attention, ordinary people wouldn't be able to tell.

"What do they seem to be looking for?"

After careful analysis, Ye Cheng came to a conclusion.

Is there something good hidden in this bamboo forest that has attracted some people to look for it?

No, I've never heard of it from Taoist Priest Yu Zhen before.

Moreover, he is very familiar with this bamboo forest and has left his mark on almost every corner.

It's night again.

After Ye Cheng finished dinner, he left the bamboo house directly.

He planned to spend a few days outside.

It's not safe in the bamboo forest anymore.

Taking advantage of the darkness, Ye Cheng came outside the bamboo forest and climbed directly onto a big tree by the lake.

The trees here are dense and close to the lake.

If he really encountered danger, Ye Cheng could simply jump into the water to escape.

Ye Cheng is never careless about his own safety.

No matter how cautious you are, it is absolutely right.

It's night time.

Ye Cheng was lying on the tree.

As a white ape, sleeping in a tree is a basic skill.

Baoxiang Shu was held in his arms.

It is late autumn now.

It's getting a little cooler.

However, Ye Cheng's cultivation level is already at the second level of the Qi Realm. In addition, he is a white ape with white hair, and his resistance to cold is much stronger than that of humans.

Ye Cheng didn't sleep.

He planned to sleep during the day and watch at night.

Staying up until late at night, Ye Cheng's ears suddenly twitched and he heard some movement, and immediately looked in the direction of the bamboo forest.

The location he chose was better. If someone wanted to enter the bamboo forest, there were only two ways to go.

They happened to be under his observation.

The moon and stars were still sparse tonight, and with Ye Cheng's field of vision, he could still see clearly.

I saw two black shadows sneaking into the bamboo forest.

They didn't seem to notice that someone was spying on them secretly.

"What is the origin of these two?"

Ye Cheng was very curious.

But given ten courages, he wouldn't dare to follow up and take a look.

After all, his current strength is too weak.

It’s better not to take unnecessary risks.

Outside the bamboo house.

Two black shadows slowly approached.

After entering the house, I found nothing.

"Hey, the white ape isn't here?"

"It's normal. It's a wild beast after all. Without the control of Taoist Priest Yu Zhen, it should have run away. And it's better this way. We don't need to be sneaky when searching."

"That's true."

The two began a more detailed search, not missing every corner.

After searching the bamboo house, the two began to search in the bamboo forest again.

a few hours later.

Suddenly a whistle sounded.

Another dark figure quickly heard the sound and flew away.

Soon, the two of them gathered deep in the bamboo forest.

"found it?"

"Not sure yet, but Panshi has a reaction."

The two of them stood under a bamboo.

There is a soil hole at the root of this bamboo, and some broken soil is piled outside.

If Ye Cheng were here, he would find that this is where he laid a trap to catch Baoxiang Rat.

Since some time has passed, except for the soil holes and accumulated broken soil, all other traces have disappeared.

Even the shrubs and grass that were originally broken due to the Baoxiang Rat's struggle have almost recovered.

"I'll try."

Another dark figure took out a stone disc from his pocket, about the size of a palm, with a stone pointer in the middle.

When he placed the stone disk at the entrance of the earth hole, the stone pointer on it moved left and right, as if it was disturbed by something.
"Sure enough, there is a reaction, although the reaction is not strong, indicating that the entrance should be nearby."

The black figure spoke.

Next, the two of them used the rock nearby to test it.

Eventually a location of highest intensity was identified.

"It's almost dawn, let's come back at night."

one of them said.

“That’s all we can do, but once we’ve determined the location, the rest will be easy.”

The other nodded.

So the two returned the same way.

Ye Cheng watched two black figures emerge from the bamboo forest and disappear into the distance. He did not return to the bamboo house immediately, but closed his eyes and prepared to sleep in the tree for a while.

The main reason is that they are worried that these two people will come back again.

It was still bright in the morning.

Ye Cheng returned to the bamboo house and found that someone had come in.

Because when he left the bamboo house, he put the white hair on his body in some key places.

Without exception, these white hairs have been moved.

He was secretly glad that he did not sleep in the bamboo house at night, otherwise he would have had to sit on the wax.

"What are they looking for?"

Ye Cheng was very curious.

After eating breakfast, Ye Cheng began to follow the traces left by the two black shadows.

Finally, he came to the cave.

Judging from the traces at the scene, those two people stayed here the longest.

"Did they find something here?"

Ye Cheng began to examine it carefully.

After a long time, he found nothing.

Ye Cheng became increasingly confused.

I don’t know if those two people will come again tonight?
Anyway, he didn't dare to sleep in the bamboo house.

He now looks forward to the early return of Taoist priest Yu Zhen.

In this way, he would have a backer.

Being so worried and scared every day, and not getting enough rest, it also affects his practice.

After only two days of watching, his flowing and smooth white hair was a bit messy and lacked luster.

They all come from staying up late.
