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

Chapter 21 Caution
Ye Cheng walked around for a long time, but didn't find any clues.

"Better mind your own business, otherwise curiosity will kill the ape."

Such dangerous matters still have to be left to the people of Chongyang Temple to deal with.

When Zhendao came back, he told her about this.

So Ye Cheng left the scene.

He left from Nanzhu.

Even before leaving, he cleaned up the traces left behind.

This is also just in case.

If those two dark figures found out that he had been at the scene, wouldn't it be the end?

Caution is the boat.

He can live forever and doesn't want to capsize in the gutter.

Third night.

The two black figures came to the bamboo forest again.

"Hey, did they bring something?"

Ye Cheng still hid in the big tree by the lake in advance.

Could it be a weapon?
It's a little bit different.

With doubts, Ye Cheng still lay dormant.

It wasn't until dawn that the two men left quietly.

Ye Cheng slept in the tree again before returning to the bamboo forest.

He went straight to that location immediately.

However, he kept an eye out.

Instead of walking on the ground, he climbed directly over the bamboo, which was perfect for practicing the ape attack technique.

After arriving at the place, Ye Cheng hung upside down on a bamboo, lowered his body, and looked at the ground carefully.

"Hey, there seems to be signs of movement here."

Ye Cheng's eyes were fixed on one place.

Although it was covered with a layer of bamboo leaves, there were signs of being turned over, exposing some very fresh soil scattered around.

Ye Cheng did not go down.

Because he was not sure whether the two men had arranged any warning devices.

If the two find out that someone has been at the scene, they will be in trouble.

So he looked around again.

"Those two people just cleared away the traces casually. It seems that they are much bolder and think that no one will come in the bamboo forest."

Ye Cheng analyzed in his heart.

The first two times, the traces left by the two of them were relatively shallow.

But this time, there were traces everywhere, very obvious.

Anyone can see the clues.

So, Ye Cheng began to search along the most obvious trace.

He still didn't walk on the ground.

As a white ape, he climbs and jumps in trees, faster and more agile than on the ground.

Ye Cheng stopped at a sunken pit more than [-] meters away.

"Digging a hole?"

Ye Cheng looked at the fresh soil accumulated in the pit.

Those two didn't cover up.

With so much fresh soil, it's difficult to completely cover it.

Moreover, this place is relatively remote, with dense bamboo forests, and basically no one will come here except for the white ape in Ye Cheng.

The two men dumped all the soil they dug out here.

"Is there any treasure hidden under the ground?"

Ye Cheng touched his furry chin and thought to himself.

He returned to the original place, looked at the place that was covered with bamboo leaves but had obviously been moved, and fell into deep thought.

He was thinking, should he open it and take a look?

But his naturally cautious character became hesitant.

This may be Pandora's Box.

Once opened, maybe something bad will happen.

"There is no need to take such a risk. I am just a white ape."

Ye Cheng finally held back.

So he turned around and walked away, as if nothing had happened, and continued to practice his sword and ape attack skills.

More than ten days passed like this, and the two men would come every night and leave before dawn.

Ye Cheng will also visit once a day.

But he didn't go down to the ground, let alone check the place where the hole was dug.

Although he was full of strong curiosity about what those two people were digging, he still held back after all.

At the same time, he was looking forward to the early return of Taoist Yu Zhen and the others.On this day, Ye Cheng, who was hiding in the tree until midnight, did not see the two black figures coming.

"what's the situation?"

Ye Cheng was very curious.

Could it be that those two people have already dug up the treasure?
Until dawn, the two black figures were not seen.

The next day, the two black figures still didn't come.

To be on the safe side, Ye Cheng did not go to that location in the past two days.

By the fifth day, the two black figures seemed to have completely disappeared and never appeared again.

Ye Cheng understood that the two people had either dug something or not, so they had no choice but to give up and leave.
So, he couldn't bear it anymore and came to the scene again.

He believed that after so many days, those two people would definitely not come again.

The scene was restored very well.

There are almost no traces left.

"Hey, is this backfill?"

When Ye Cheng came to the previously potholed land, all the piled soil was gone.

A layer of withered yellow bamboo leaves was also spread on top to camouflage it.

"Quite cautious."

Ye Cheng was extremely surprised.

Under normal circumstances, as long as the things are in hand, there is no need to handle the scene so carefully.

With so much soil backfilled, the amount of work is not small.

Now that the dug area has been backfilled, even if Ye Cheng wants to check it out, he has no chance.

Unless he digs out the filled soil hole again.

He's not that busy.

He knew he couldn't bear the risks involved.

In the next few days, Ye Cheng stayed in the bamboo house during the day, practicing swordsmanship, or going to the bamboo forest to practice ape striking skills. At night, he left the bamboo forest and went to spend the night in that tree.

He was still paying attention to the situation outside the bamboo forest.

In order to prevent those two people from getting back at each other.

Before Taoist Master Yu Zhen came back, he felt that it was not safe to sleep in the bamboo house at night.

yard.

After lunch, Ye Cheng picked his teeth with a bamboo stick.

This was a habit he had developed in his previous life. Every time he didn't clean his teeth after eating, he would feel uncomfortable all over.

"Hey, why hasn't Taoist Master Yu Zhen come back? It's been 25 days."

Ye Cheng was in a bad mood as he stroked the Baoxiang rat in his arms.

It's been a long time since he took a medicinal bath.

Although the experience of taking a medicinal bath was very poor, it was of great help to his practice.

His current progress in the ape attack technique has been very, very slow.

If this continues, the third level of Qi Realm will be far away.

What makes him most helpless is that the sign-in system requires sign-in once a day, but for more than a year, there is not even an extra reward.

Ye Cheng felt very uncomfortable with such irregularities.

Just as his mind was wandering, a sound of footsteps came closer and closer.

As a white ape, Ye Cheng has extremely high hearing.

With a start, he suddenly turned over and ran towards the back of the bamboo house with Baoxiang Shu in his arms.

"Xiaobai, why are you running?"

Suddenly, a clear and familiar voice sounded.

It was the voice of Taoist Priest Yu Zhen.

Ye Cheng suddenly stopped and saw Taoist Priest Yu Zhen appearing outside the hospital.

Wearing a pure blue loose Taoist robe, with black hair like a waterfall, and a delicate and gentle face with a faint smile.

Taoist priest Yu Zhen's skin looks darker than before. It is obvious at a glance that it is caused by frequent exposure to the sun during this period.

"Ow."

Ye Cheng couldn't help but be startled when he saw it was Taoist Priest Yu Zhen.

He didn't even recognize the footsteps of Taoist Priest Yu Zhen just now.

Could it be that Taoist Priest Yu Zhen has been away for too long?
No, the footsteps just now clearly didn’t belong to Taoist Priest Yu Zhen.

a bit heavy
Not as brisk as before.

Ye Cheng ran over quickly and his eyes fell on Taoist Priest Yu Zhen's feet.

"Don't look at it. It's just a little injury. It will recover after a while."

Taoist Priest Yu Zhen said with a chuckle.

She said it lightly, but Ye Cheng could imagine the danger involved in this mission of guarding the road.

With Senior Sister leading the team, Taoist Priest Yu Zhen was actually injured?
