Qin Xiao put on his clothes, walked through the Water Curtain Cave, and walked to the suspended stone path.

Since the God of Plague was blocking the way and unable to leave, Qin Xiao thought that he couldn't stay in the cave all day, so it would be good to go out and bask in the sun on the stone path.

The weather was indeed not bad these days, the sun was shining brightly, and the air in the mountains was also very fresh. Looking up at the sky, white clouds were blooming. Qin Xiao simply lay on the stone path and basked in the sun for a while before sitting up.

The old ape was still sitting with his back to the stone bridge, looking at the lush forest in front of him.

Sometimes Qin Xiao really admired this old ape for being able to sit in one position for most of the day, as if the old monk was in trance.

He imitated the old ape's sitting posture and sat in a similar manner. Looking at the old ape's gray hair, he suddenly felt some sympathy.

This old ape seems to have no relatives, at least in the past few days, no second giant ape has been seen. Only this old ape has been alone.

Under the sunlight, the old ape looked extremely lonely.

Of course Qin Xiao understands this feeling deeply. He has spent the past few years in loneliness and knows that kind of loneliness.

Suddenly, he saw the old ape turning his head. Qin Xiao's heart tightened. He was now sincerely afraid of the old ape. Seeing its movements, he was afraid that it would be detrimental to him.

But I immediately thought that the suspended stone path was very narrow and the old ape was huge, so he would not dare to come over, so he relaxed and even deliberately made a face at the old ape.

The old ape didn't know whether it was because of Qin Xiao's grimace, but he suddenly started dancing and spinning around on the big stone platform, very excited.

Qin Xiao was a little surprised when he saw the old ape suddenly dashing away in the forest. The speed was so fast that he got into the forest in just a moment.

Qin Xiao was even more surprised. He didn't know what the old ape wanted to do. He was thinking about whether to take advantage of this moment to escape. Before he thought about it, he saw the old ape jumping out of the forest and soon arrived at the deep pool.

He held a wooden stick in his hand and threw it towards Qin Xiao.

Qin Xiao took it and was confused, but saw the old ape raised his hand and patted his chest. Only then did Qin Xiao see that there was a copper plate hanging on the old ape's chest.

The copper plate shone in the sun. The old ape pointed to the wooden stick in Qin Xiao's hand, then pointed to the copper plate on his chest, and bared his teeth at Qin Xiao.

Qin Xiao thought for a moment, and although he knew that the old ape couldn't speak, he still couldn't help but ask: "Old monster, you don't want me to hit the copper plate with a wooden stick, do you?"

Naturally, the old ape didn't understand what he said, so he still pointed at the wooden stick and then the copper plate.

Qin Xiao approached cautiously, but the old ape actually stepped back. Only when Qin Xiao reached the stone platform did the old ape stare at Qin Xiao, bared his teeth, and made a deep sound in his throat.

"It seems that this old monster is bored and asked me to play with it." Qin Xiao thought: "This old ape is very understanding of human nature. He trapped me here. I'm afraid he won't let me out for a while. I'll just

Play with him for a while, and if he likes me, he might be in a good mood and let me go."

At that moment, he cheered up, held the wooden stick, and said with a smile: "Since Mr. Ape is interested, I will play with you." He stared at the copper plate, took a deep breath, rushed forward, and pointed the long stick straight at the copper plate.

The copper plate stabbed through.

The old ape did not dodge, but when he saw the wooden stick being stabbed at him, the old ape suddenly turned around nimbly and moved to Qin Xiao's side. Before Qin Xiao could react, he pushed Qin Xiao's shoulder hard with his thick palm.

The old ape may not be very strong, but the size gap between Qin Xiao and him is too big. This push immediately made Qin Xiao stagger back a few steps, and then he sat down on the ground.

The old ape became excited again, clapped his hands and pointed at Qin Xiao, with a strange expression on his face. Qin Xiao could clearly see that it was a look of ridicule.

He was angry and stood up. This time he did not act rashly, but circled around the old ape. The old ape sat on the ground, seeming to find it very interesting and did not move.

Qin Xiao walked around five or six times and saw that the old ape seemed to have relaxed his guard. He walked to the side of the old ape and saw the copper plate next to it. This time, he did not hesitate and rushed over diagonally, using the long stick again.

The wooden stick passed through the old ape's armpit and was about to hit the copper plate. The old ape's arm suddenly dropped and clamped the wooden stick. For a moment, the wooden stick could neither move forward nor retreat. Qin Xiao ate a

Surprised, the old ape turned his head and grinned. Qin Xiao knew that it was mocking again and pulled the stick hard, but the ape's arms held the stick, and Qin Xiao could not move it at all.

Qin Xiao was getting angry when the old ape suddenly waved his hand and hit Qin Xiao on the forehead with his fingertips, knocking Qin Xiao to the ground immediately.

Qin Xiao only felt that his eyesight turned black and he fainted again.

When I woke up, it was already dusk, the sun was setting in the west, and the afterglow was dim.

He sat up, and the old ape was sitting not far in front of him. Thinking that the old ape could knock him unconscious with one finger, he knew that he could not be the old ape's opponent. He suddenly lost interest and stood up to return to the cave.

, but he heard an ape roar, and the old ape had jumped in front of him, blocking the way. He threw the wooden stick to his feet again, and pointed to the copper plate on his chest.

Qin Xiao was about to cry but had no tears, so he cupped his hands and said: "Eunuch Ape, you are the reincarnation of a god, I am just an ordinary person, and I am really no match for you. If you continue to play like this, I will be played to death by you sooner or later. You, sir, are the best, so you should let me fend for myself."

Destroy it."

The old ape roared, with a ferocious look on his face.

Qin Xiao had no choice but to pick up the stick, and the old ape became happy.

Qin Xiao used to think that it was really easy to pierce the copper plate with a wooden stick, but now he knew that the copper plate was like a cloud in the sky, which could be seen but not touched.

He knew more clearly that he had better not think about touching the copper plate with a wooden stick. The first thing he had to do was to prevent the old ape from hitting himself with his fingers. If this giant creature touched him casually, it would cause him a lot of harm.

, since the old ape wants to play, he should have fun with him, but he must protect his own safety.

Now that he was on guard, he would not dare to attack directly. When he found an opportunity to take action, he would not try his best, but would always be on guard for the old ape to take action.

By the time it got dark, Qin Xiao was exhausted and sat down on the ground. This time, the old ape did not continue to pester him. Qin Xiao found an opportunity and quickly ran back into the cave.

The game with the old ape was really a labor-intensive job. When I returned to the cave, I was hungry. Although I knew that eating red fruits would make the body hot, it was nothing compared to hunger. I picked the red fruits and wolfed them down.

After the tiger choked and filled his stomach, it didn't take long for his body to feel hot.

He was prepared, took off his clothes and ran under the water curtain, using cold water to cool down, which was equivalent to taking a bath.

After returning to the cave, I fell asleep. Maybe it was because I was too hard during the day, so I slept very soundly and didn't get up until dawn the next day.

Strangely enough, although the skin is still red, when I wake up, the tiredness from yesterday has long disappeared. Instead, I feel refreshed and full of energy. I clenched my fists and seemed to have inexhaustible strength.

Contained in the body.

The roar of the old ape was heard outside, and Qin Xiao wondered if the old ape wanted to play with it again.

After playing with it for so long yesterday, it almost cost him his life. Qin Xiao simply ignored it and lay down in the cave, enjoying himself.

The old ape's howling became more and more irritating. Qin Xiao felt a little frightened when he heard it. He stood up and walked through the water curtain. He saw the old ape on the other side of the stone path and slapped his chest fiercely. He looked really angry.

.

Moreover, the old guy weighed his feet to test the stone path, but quickly retracted it. Qin Xiao felt funny in his heart, knowing that the old ape did not dare to cross the stone path, so he waved and said: "Uncle Ape, this cave is very comfortable, come in and have a look?"

"

The old ape was very angry, turned around and walked away slowly.

Qin Xiao felt proud, thinking to himself that no matter how powerful you are, this suspended stone road is your weakness.

Just as he was thinking about it, he saw the old ape turning around, raising his head, letting out a roar, and making a gesture to rush over here.

Qin Xiao suddenly thought that this old ape really did not dare to walk on the stone path, but his jumping ability was amazing. Look at this posture, he wanted to jump over the deep pool and jump directly into the cave.

For a moment, cold sweat broke out on his vest. He knew that if he really angered the old ape and made him jump over, he would not be able to reap the benefits. He hurriedly raised his hand and said: "Don't worry, don't worry, Father Ape, I'm here."

I cursed a few times in my mind, but walked to the big stone platform helplessly.

The old ape was very proud and still threw the wooden stick to Qin Xiao.

On this day, Qin Xiao could only play with the old ape in the game of stabbing copper plates with wooden sticks.

Fortunately, he knew that when facing this old ape, he must not attack rashly and focus on defense. It was expected that he did not stab the copper plate at the end of the day. Although he tried his best to dodge, he was still knocked over by the old ape hundreds of times.

.

Although the old ape is huge in size, its movements are not sluggish and can even be called nimble.

For the next five or six days, every day at dawn, Qin Xiao was forced to go out and play games with the old ape. Fortunately, the red fruit was very powerful in replenishing physical strength. As long as he took it and slept for one night, he would be full of energy the next day.

However, there were not too many fruits in the cave. After many days, the fruits were exhausted.

In the past few days, Qin Xiao also clearly felt that after eating the red fruit, his reaction power and speed were significantly improved, and his jumping ability was much stronger than when he had just broken through the second level.

In addition, because taking the red fruit increases the strength and physique, sometimes even if it is touched by the old ape, it is still enough to hold on and prevent it from falling over.

In the past few days, he was knocked over by the old ape nearly a hundred times every day, but every other day, the number of times Qin Xiao was knocked over was much less. By the seventh day, he was only knocked over by the old ape five or six times in one day.

And in his confrontation with the old ape, his swaying movements also became ghostly and agile.

When I returned to the cave that day, there was no red fruit left, and I was anxious. I thought to myself that the old ape was forced to fight every day. If he couldn't replenish his physical strength, he wouldn't be able to survive at all. If he couldn't get food for three or four days,

I'm afraid I'm really going to starve to death here.

Suddenly he heard the cry of the old ape coming from outside. In the past many days, the old ape would not disturb him as long as it was dark. Today, he suddenly called out. There must be something wrong. When Qin Xiao arrived at the big stone platform, he saw the old ape lying beside the deep pool.

There was a pile of dry firewood, and there was a dead hare beside it. It was very fat. The old ape sat not far away, bared his teeth towards it, and then the old monk fell into meditation.

Qin Xiao was surprised and wondered if this old ape could tell fortunes. He had just run out of food and he sent a hare to him.

At that moment, he was not polite. He took the fish intestines and spines that Hong Ye gave him, peeled them and washed them. He also lit a fire in the cave. The clay pot happened to be useful, and stewed the rabbit meat in it. Although there was no condiment,

But still had a full meal.

From then on, it seemed that he had formed a habit. After dawn, Qin Xiao went out to fight with the old ape, and returned to his cave to rest at dusk. The old ape would soon bring food, such as hares, deer, elk, lynx, etc.

It is supplied almost every day.

Although the delicacies of the mountains and game are not bad, it is a pity that there is no condiment, which is a fly in the ointment.

But these wild animals are enough to ensure that Qin Xiao's physical strength will not have any problems.
