Chapter 1755: Bent Osmanthus in the Moon Palace (8)
Translator: 549690339
Richard called Wu Gang “brother musclehead”, which relieved the psychological pressure of everyone, especially Zhang Zian, to a certain extent. At least it sounded better than “homicidal maniac” or something … Wait a minute, when did he start to think that “brother musclehead” sounded better than “homicidal maniac”?
As for the ordinary Jade Rabbit that he had already caught, he didn’t plan to let it go. It was good to keep it as a memento, provided that he could bring it back to the Pet Shop alive.
Everyone continued to move forward, with push fa leading the way.
In Europe a thousand years ago, the primeval forest coverage was still very high, and a large area was untouched, just like this place. Fati had been to many places with its human brothers, even all the way to Egypt. So when professor Wei Kang visited, it was very interested in visiting the old place, and also felt sorry for not being able to participate in the last trip to Egypt.
After walking for a while.
“Did you guys feel it? The temperature seems to be getting lower and lower?” Zhang Zian said.
The Elfins didn’t feel anything, because their hair was thick and dry, so they were not sensitive to changes in the outside temperature. His clothes were wet from the sea, and he wrung them dry when he was on the tree. Although he was not cold because he had been moving, he vaguely felt that the temperature seemed to be dropping, and he didn’t know if it was an illusion.
“Look, it’s a rabbit again.” Fati said.
A few rabbits appeared on the lawn in front of them. They were all Jade rabbits with fur as smooth as Jade. They seemed to be from a family, and they were eating wild fruits and grass.
Zhang Zian didn’t catch rabbits from a family like this again. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be good to break up the family. If he met a rabbit that was alone again, he could consider it.
…
Because they did not deliberately lower their voices when they were talking, the Jade rabbits ran away alertly, leaping into the forest and disappearing without a trace.
Richard flapped his wings and flew over.”I wonder if this wild fruit can be eaten …”
Everyone set off after dinner. The elves were fine, but Zhang Zian was a little hungry because he had been in the sea for a long time.
He walked over and picked up a few wild fruits. Each of them was the size of a child’s fist. He didn’t know what kind they were, or maybe they weren’t on earth. But since the rabbits in the Moon Palace could be eaten, he probably wouldn’t die after eating them.
“Quick, test the poison for me.” “I’m going to live the life of an Emperor,” Richard said while pecking at its feathers.
He put one in his mouth and bit it.
Pfft.
The wild fruit was already ripe, even a little over-ripe, and especially soft. It was at the level where it might rot if left there for a while longer.
A thick juice burst in his mouth, and the sweet fragrance overflowed. The soft and sticky flesh melted in his mouth, and the core was very small.
He had never eaten such delicious fruit before.
He ate a few more to satisfy his hunger and quench his thirst. He simply couldn’t stop.
Richard wanted to eat it as well, but the fruit was too big for it to swallow. It put it in its beak and took a bite. The juice splashed everywhere, and the flesh fell to the ground. It could not eat anything, so it had to give up.
The other sprites that needed to eat were not interested in wild fruits, and they were not hungry.
Zhang Zian had experienced the test of the desert. He knew that when there was not enough food, he could not eat all the food in one go. He stopped after eating a few.
He took off his vest and tied a knot on the open bottom. Then he put the rest of the wild fruits in and carried them.
This kind of wild fruit seemed to be very rare. They walked forward for a while and didn’t encounter any similar wild fruits. The elves didn’t smell the fragrance of wild fruits either.
It wasn’t Zhang Zian’s illusion. The further he walked, the lower the temperature was. Later, he could even breathe out mist-like white gas. The Elfins felt it too.
“Squeak?”
As it walked, Pi seemed to be hit on the head by something.
“What’s wrong, Pi?” Zhang Zian asked.
Pi picked up a small piece of bark from the ground and showed it to Zhang Zian. It meant that it had been hit by the falling bark, but because the gravity was very low, and the acceleration of gravity was also very low, it didn’t hurt.
Zhang Zian and the Elfins didn’t care. After all, in such a dense forest, it was normal for the bark to fall off.
“Squeak?”
After a while, another small piece of bark hit Pi’s shoulder.
This was a little strange. Everyone was also jumping forward, so why did Pi always get hit?
Everyone looked up at the same time.
The Laurel tree was too tall, and the top was hidden in the fog. There seemed to be some animals jumping between the branches. Their movements were very agile, and the number of them was not small.
He and the Elfins were all shocked. They had been paying attention to the movement and smell on the ground, but they didn’t expect there to be animals moving on the top of the trees.
With him as the center, the elves formed a circle and were on guard.
The animals didn’t seem to have a strong intention to attack. They were more like playing, or they wouldn’t have thrown Pi with the bark but attacked it directly.
After a while, the animals saw that they had stopped moving. They probably felt bored and moved down from the top of the tree, staring at them with curiosity.
“Squeak?”
Zhang Zian, Pi, and the other Elfins were all stunned, because they were a group of monkeys. No wonder they were deliberately provoking Pi. It must be because they thought Pi was the same kind. Why did they have to travel with these weird guys?
Pi was also very curious about the sudden appearance of its kind, but Zhang Zian and the Elfins were its family and friends, so it was just curious. It didn’t jump up to the tree.
The monkeys might have thought that these guys were not dangerous, so they ran even lower, almost looking at Zhang Zian and the Elfins from above.
“Squeak!”
“Squeak! Squeak!”
The monkeys kept talking, but Zhang Zian didn’t understand what they were doing. Were they asking Pi to go with them? He definitely couldn’t agree to it.
“Squeak squeak.”
Pi pulled his hand and pointed to the wild fruit in his back pocket.
“They want these wild fruits?” Zhang Zian asked.
Pi nodded. It could more or less understand the gestures of its kind.
He was in a difficult position. These wild fruits were the only food he could find at the moment. What would he eat if he gave them to them?
The monkey saw that he didn’t respond for a long time and shouted even louder anxiously. It even peeled off the bark and threw it at them.
Old time tea rebuked,”these monkeys are so rude!” Zian, there’s no need to be polite with them, just drive them away!”
The other elves were also infuriated by the monkeys ‘barks. They had never suffered such grievances before.
Zhang Zian thought for a moment and decided to be polite before using force. He said to Pi,””Tell them that these wild fruits are our food. We can’t give them.”
Pi pointed at the wild fruit, then pointed to its mouth, making a eating gesture.
“Squeak!”
“Squeak! Squeak!”
The monkeys became more agitated, but they didn’t throw the tree bark at them anymore.
“Squeak squeak.”
Pi looked at it in confusion for a while, then gestured to Zhang Zian again, meaning,”They seem to be saying that they want to exchange other food with us.
