Chapter 155: Monkeys of Mount Emei
Murong Ji let out a breath. This was a pool of muddy water and no one knew how deep the water was.

In short, those few people are the only ones who dare to seize power.

What Murong Ji subconsciously thought of was how to send them to death, rather than the power struggle that led to his dismissal.

Anything taken to extremes is not a good thing.

Murong Ji let out a breath. He remembered one thing. Gao Taotao died of illness a year before Qiao Feng's death.

Calculating the time, I still have time. This period of time is enough for me to return from Mount Emei.

Then we will consider going to Beijing.

"Fourth Brother Feng, go gather some people. We will set out for Mount Emei in three days."

"Yes!"

In later generations, the Emei School was regarded as one of the three major martial arts schools along with Shaolin and Wudang.

Unlike the other two sects, the Emei sect is famous for its breadth.

Strictly speaking, the current Emei Sect has not yet been formed, and the Buddhist and Taoist sects are clearly separated.

Murong Ji looked up at the lush and green Mount Emei, feeling a little heavy in his heart. He was not sure if he could find the place he wanted.

Anyway, give it a try.

"Boy! You don't even know where the location is?! And you brought me here?!!" Tong Piaoyun had an unfriendly look on his face, and there was some resentment in his eyes as he looked at Murong Ji.

She has already started to retire and lie down, just wanting to live a peaceful life during the last period of time.

"Hmph, if you don't want to, you can go back. No one is forcing you." Li Qiu Shui looked calm and a little sarcastic.

"Li Qiushui! Shut your stinky mouth!"

……

Murong Ji rubbed his forehead. These two people would quarrel as soon as they met. The one who couldn't win the argument would even fight. "Stop quarreling!"

Leaving everyone from the Murong family at the foot of the mountain, he took Tong Piaoyun, Li Qiu Shui and three others, packed some dry food and water bags, and went up Mount Emei.

Mount Emei is steep and rugged, and it is not easy to climb. The place where Murong Ji and others are walking now is even less visited by people.

The same mountain has different scenery. The scenery at the foot, middle and top of the mountain is all different, but Murong Ji is not in the mood to appreciate it, nor can he appreciate it.

Before Mount Emei was developed, it was extremely difficult to climb. The mountains were stacked one upon another, and the ancient trees were towering, blocking the sunlight, making it look gloomy and deep.

Just like the deep mountains and old forests. No, to be precise, this is the deep mountains and old forests.

Murong Ji and his two companions focused on exploring the various deep valleys, mountain streams, and caves in Mount Emei, but there were actually not many places suitable for practicing in caves.

The mountains here are too steep. There are clusters of flowers in front and a cliff behind.

After a few days without any results, Murong Ji felt a little upset.

And that damn monkey interferes in real time, which is extremely annoying.

Murong Ji dodged the stones thrown by the dead monkey and looked at the sneering monkey on the tree branch. It turned out that the monkeys on Mount Emei were so annoying at this time.

"Follow the monkey!"

Tong Piaoyun stared at the sneering creature and suddenly said this.

Murong Ji frowned slightly, "If you have too much free time, just stay in Mount Emei and be a monkey."

As soon as the voice fell, Li Qiushui nodded and said: "Well, this is indeed a method. I think you, Senior Sister, do have the qualifications to be a monkey."

Tong Piaoyun rolled his eyes and said, "I'm serious."

Li Qiushui nodded and took a deep breath, "This is the only way."

Murong Ji looked at them in confusion. He felt sick instantly when he noticed that they were looking at him as if he were a monkey.

Li Qiu Shui picked up a stone and threw it slightly towards the tree trunk next to the monkey.

"Boom!"

The stone was embedded directly in the tree trunk, which scared the monkey. It jumped down the tree and ran straight into the depths of the jungle.

"Keep up!" Tong Piaoyun reminded.

Murong Ji and the other two were just following the monkey, and no one knew where the destination was.

After a while, Murong Ji figured out the trick.

This monkey is so long and durable!
Compared with monkeys, humans have innate advantages, such as weight, strength, endurance, etc., but this monkey is a little too flexible and its endurance is a little too long.

Murong Ji frowned slightly, he remembered the expression on Tong Piaoyun's face when he asked her whether the "demon" existed.

This monkey was really too abnormal, but Tong Piaoyun and Li Qiu Shui were not surprised.

[Is there really a demon? The Monkey King? It's the wrong species! ]

Murong Ji and the other two followed the monkeys for several hours before they saw a large group of monkeys.

Li Qiushui chuckled, "I'm ready."

Without waiting for Murong Ji to react, Li Qiu Shui grabbed a handful of leaves and threw them directly at the group of monkeys.

The leaves themselves had little killing power, but with the internal force attached to them, it was a different story. In an instant, seven or eight monkeys were pierced by the leaves and died.

Murong Ji was shocked. He was not a kind-hearted person, but he still felt guilty about killing people for no reason.

In addition, there is some incomprehensible cause and effect.

Murong Ji quickly pressed down Li Qiushui's hand and said, "Just injure them. There's no need to take their lives."

Li Qiushui and Tong Piaoyun were bewildered and looked at him in surprise. When did Murong Ji change his temper?
In their understanding, Murong Ji was the kind of ruthless person who would do anything to achieve his goal. What was there to pity about the lives of a group of monkeys? But in fact, Murong Ji had never killed indiscriminately.

“Protecting animals is everyone’s responsibility.”

Li Qiushui rolled her eyes: "You're sick!"

Tong Piaoyun nodded in agreement and added, "He's crazy!"

Murong Ji: "..."

Li Qiu Shui's attacks were much gentler, only injuring a few monkeys. After several attacks, the monkeys reacted.

Slowly they gathered around Murong Ji and the other two.

"Look at that monkey king."

Murong Ji looked in the direction Tong Piaoyun pointed, and saw a macaque with golden hair squatting on a tree, commanding the monkeys to fight back.

Murong Ji raised his eyebrows and didn't find anything unusual, but are there golden Tibetan macaques in the genus Macaca?

Murong Ji's heart was beating fast, and he was a little unsure. The brain development of monkeys was not much worse than that of humans.

Very smart, and also very vindictive.

"When a person cultivates to a certain level, his bloodline will change, and the cultivation aptitude of his offspring will improve. This is the case with your Murong family, for example."

Murong Ji curled his lips. Wuyazi and Li Qiushui were so powerful, but Li Qingluo was not that good. However, he did not refute it. This was the fact.

"It's the same with these monkeys. When a special monkey appears in the group, the whole group will change."

"Stop talking! Help quickly, there are too many monkeys!" Li Qiu Shui's voice came from the front.

Murong Ji turned his head and looked. Wow, two fists were no match for four hands. The trees and the ground were densely packed with monkey heads, which made people's scalps numb.

The monkeys threw stones at Li Qiu Shui, making her look very embarrassed.

Murong Ji stopped paddling, picked up a handful of stones and threw them directly at the monkey on the tree.

One stone after another knocked the monkeys to the ground, rendering them unable to move.

With the support of the other two people, Li Qiu Shui's pressure was greatly reduced. He found some time and took some time off.

Murong Ji's Six Meridians Divine Sword played a big role here. With continuous firing, he could injure the monkey without much internal energy.

A few hours later, the monkey king saw that the monkeys had suffered heavy losses, and he let out a long howl, and countless monkeys began to retreat.

"Quick! Hit the Monkey King, but don't kill him!"

Murong Ji picked up a stone beside him and threw it over. In a hurry, he failed to control the strength and only reacted when the stone slipped out of his hand.

This blow will most likely pierce it.

"call out!"

There was no time to make amends. The stone hit the Golden Haired Monkey King directly in the chest. The huge force sent it flying backwards. After hitting a tree, it fell to the ground again.

The Monkey King's legs kept twitching, and he was probably dead.

"I didn't ask you to kill it!"

"Incompetent bungler!"

Murong Ji looked at Lai Nian with a sullen look, and kept silent. He had indeed done something wrong. "Is there any other way?"

As soon as the words fell, the golden macaque turned over and ran towards the depths of the jungle.

"Hurry up! Follow me!"

Tong Piaoyun took the lead and chased the golden macaque.

Murong Ji and Li Qiu Shui followed immediately.

The monkey ran towards the depths of Mount Emei again, and its speed was much faster than the previous one. The three of them were quite fast in Qinggong, so they followed behind it and chased into the depths of Mount Emei together.

Further ahead, there are deep mountains and dense forests. There is no road as it is blocked by tree branches. Monkeys are small, so it is naturally no problem for them to move through them.

But Murong Ji and the other two were in a difficult situation.

It’s not that there is no other way. Murong Ji held the sword in front and quickly chopped out a passage.

Li Qiushui and Tong Piaoyun followed behind, and the speed of the three of them was not slow.

Suddenly, Murong Ji stopped, stood on a tree branch, and looked forward. He saw a group of golden macaques. A rough count revealed that there were hundreds of them!
These monkeys are extremely large, standing up to 1.67 meters tall. If they were to appear in later generations, they would surely cause a stir.

Murong Ji's face looked a little ugly. He also noticed that some monkeys had internal strength.

"Humph! These evil beasts, what a good opportunity."

Murong Ji turned his head and glanced at Li Qiu Shui without saying anything. At this point, there was no need to say anything more.

Murong Ji took off a piece of bark and was about to throw it away, trying the same trick again, but was held down by Tong Piaoyun, "No need, look."

Murong Ji looked around and saw a few "people" slowly walking down from the jungle on the mountainside! !

Covered in white hair, walking upright, if you don't look closely, it really looks exactly like a human. Murong Ji's heart skipped a beat, and a panic-stricken feeling came over him.

It’s not that the monkeys in front are so scary, nor is it how deep the internal strength of those white-haired monkeys is.

It was a palpitating feeling from the soul that made him unconsciously think of "Rise of the Planet of the Apes".

It reminded him of humans being served on the table, and it reminded him of humans being slaughtered like pigs.

Creepy!!
This chill of fear rushed directly from his spine into his brain, making his mind unusually clear.
