Chapter 154: Nameless White Ape

Chapter 154: Nameless White Ape
Not bad, not bad, this shape is good.

I wanted to become an immortal, but I was also amazed by what I saw.

"Then Brother Feng, you should go early and come back early. Don't wait until dark."

"Don't worry, I'll go in and take a look."

When Xiao Jie walked into the valley again, the monkeys did not attack and turned into yellow neutral monsters. Seeing Xiao Jie in the shape of a wild man with arms folded, they all looked at him curiously.

"Good afternoon, everyone." Xiao Jie shouted loudly.

"Gugugugu, you can speak our language? What are you? A human? A big monkey?"

"Yes, I am a big monkey. To be more precise, I am a bald monkey. I am so miserable. I was caught by hunters and all my hair was plucked out. I finally escaped. I saw a forest here and wanted to hide in it. Can I go in?"

Xiao Jie knew that animals had relatively low IQs, so he had to speak simply and directly.

This time the monkeys really did not attack.

"Gugujiji, come in quickly, big bald monkey, don't let the hunter catch you."

"Gugujiji, what kind of monkey are you and why are you so weird?"

"Gugujiji, little monkey, go and lead the big bald monkey into the valley. The king will definitely know what kind of monkey he is."

Then a little monkey of only level 3 climbed down from the tree. Its little paws curiously touched Xiao Jie's bronze skin and patted his thigh comfortingly.

"Gugujiji, follow me, big bald monkey. I will take you into the valley. As long as you live in the valley for a few days, your hair will surely grow back. Be careful, there are many traps here."

Xiao Jie followed the little monkey into the valley, and indeed saw many simple traps along the way.

There were logs tied to trees that swung down to hit people, nooses made of vines on the ground, and even nets woven with vines.

The monkeys in the woods are fully armed, stationed in groups of three or five on the big trees.

There were only level 6-7 stone-slinging monkeys on the outskirts of the valley, but not far inside they turned into level 8-9 monkey leapers. There were even level 12-13 monkey warriors mixed in, holding crude weapons made of stone and wood, and wearing armor made of bamboo and wood.

The big trees are connected by vines, which provide very convenient passages for monkeys. Some trees also have simple platforms made of branches and leaves, piled with stones, like arrow towers.

It is not difficult to imagine that if someone wanted to attack by force, he would probably suffer a lot of beatings along the way.

It may not be useful against experts, but if ordinary players of level 10 or so come in, it will still be dangerous even if you form a team.

Monkeys in particular can attack from a high position, taking advantage of the terrain.

After passing through this dangerous forest and entering the valley, we saw a different scene. The valley was still full of trees, but not as densely packed as at the entrance. Trees grew on both sides of the valley, and the trees were full of fruits. The colorful fruits were particularly vivid in the sun. Some simple tree houses were located on the treetops.

In the middle of the valley is a green meadow dotted with wild flowers of various colors. A clear stream flows through it, forming several small pools. Some monkeys are playing in the stream or drinking water by the pools. At the end of the stream is a mountain spring waterfall flowing down from a towering cliff.

This scene is like a paradise on earth.

Xiao Jie was fascinated by the game for a moment. The exquisite graphics of the game were perfectly presented at this moment. Compared with the desolate and gloomy world outside, this scene was completely a different style.

"Gugujiji, come here, come here." The little monkey kept calling Xiao Jie.

Xiao Jie had no choice but to follow the little monkey all the way in. Under a cliff deep in the valley, there was a flat stone platform with a stone table and stone benches on it, all of which were extremely simple.

An old ape covered in white hair was sitting on the stone bench, drinking water from a stone cup. There were a few grass leaves soaked in the water. The way the white ape sipped the water looked like a human drinking tea.

Nameless White Ape (Master of Monkey Valley): Level 46 hermit with 3600 HP.

Holy shit, a level 46 monkey! So awesome?
Xiao Jie was immediately shocked. The highest-level NPC he had seen so far was only level 34 - the Lord of Luoyang Town.

The second highest one is Duan Yu, who teaches the internal energy 'Hunyuan Yiqi'.

Such a monkey has such a high level, could it be a monster?
Moreover, this "hermit master" template is the first time I've seen him, and it's clear at first glance that he's not a simple person.

The white ape also noticed him and immediately exclaimed.

"Hey, what are you doing here, human? Didn't the monkeys outside stop you?"

The little monkey raised his hand as if offering a treasure and said, "My lord, he is not a human being, he is a big bald monkey."

"Bald hair... big monkey... hum hum... hahahahaha." The white ape suddenly burst into laughter, rolling on the ground while laughing. "Bald hair... big monkey... you bunch of idiots are going to make me laugh to death... hahaha."

He laughed for a long time before stopping. He seemed to think that rolling on the ground was very unbecoming, so he sat up straight again.

"Tell me, what on earth are you doing here—human."

Xiao Jie was a little nervous. It would be fine if this thing wasn't angry, but if it turned hostile, he would have no chance of survival.

He said with a stiff face: "Actually, I am a big bald monkey."

"Humph, it's fine if you try to trick those stupid monkeys, but I know you humans too well. You don't have to fool me. Don't worry, I won't kill you. Anyway, I haven't had anyone to talk to here for a long time, so talking to you can help relieve my boredom."

Xiao Jie breathed a sigh of relief. "To be honest, I'm actually a winemaker. I heard that monkeys can make a magical monkey wine, so I want to come here to find a monkey to learn from." "Hahaha, you want to take a monkey as your teacher, you are really interesting, but how do you speak our monkey language?"

"This... isn't that difficult to learn?"

"Hmph, if you don't want to talk about it, forget it. It's not difficult for you to learn how to make monkey wine. I have a monkey here who can make wine. Look--" As he said that, he picked up a stone basin beside him, opened the lid, and inside was a basin of amber liquid.

"I got this wine from the old monkey over there. As long as you help me with a few things, I can let it teach you."

Is this Monkey Wine? Xiao Jie took a closer look. He had heard of this stuff for a long time, but how could he confirm it?
"Come on, have a try."

As he spoke, he scooped a cup from the basin with a stone cup and handed it to Xiao Jie.

Xiao Jie clicked the mouse and saw his character pick up the wine glass and drink it all.

【System prompt: You drank [Monkey Wine] and gained the buff effect [Endless Happiness].

Xiao Jie moved the mouse to the avatar.

【Boundless happiness: Your mood becomes extremely happy. 】

It really is monkey wine. This BUFF seems to be of no use to players, but it is very useful for NPCs. As long as you have monkey wine, you can quickly improve the NPC's favorability and increase the loyalty of the soldiers. It is definitely a good thing. As long as you have this recipe, it will be an endless source of silver.

"I don't know what the Valley Master wants you to do down there, just tell me what to do."

"Well, first go buy me three sets of clothes, good cotton material, a set of furniture, tables, chairs and benches, three pounds of tea, a set of tea sets, I don't want to drink this grass tea anymore, and some steamed buns and sesame cakes and other food, you can buy whatever you like, well, that's about it, oh, and I also need a bamboo hat."

[System prompt: Trigger the task [White Ape's Good Will], help the nameless white ape purchase the following items...

Mission reward: [Monkey Wine (recipe)].

It's that simple?
Xiao Jie found it a little bit unbelievable. This was really something that was obtained without any effort. It was just some daily necessities. It was not a problem at all.

It's just spending some money.

Accepted the task decisively.

"Master Yuangu, please rest assured. I will definitely help you purchase everything. I will leave now."

"Go, go." The white ape waved his hand casually.

Xiao Jie hurried out of Monkey Valley, his heart full of joy.

Although Maomao was not found, monkey wine is the real good stuff. As long as you complete this task and earn money, you can buy any martial arts secrets you want.

"Brother Feng, how is it?"

"It's done!"

"Did you find Maomao?"

"I didn't find it, but I have a better deal - Brother Woodcutter, do you know how to get to Howling Wind City?"

The woodcutter asked anxiously, "Aren't you going to help me find the monkey?"

"The monkeys in the valley are too fierce. The two of us are no match for them. Wait until we find some helpers and then we can help you find it."

"Oh, then you better hurry back. My monkey has been lost for several days. I don't know if it has been bullied by other monkeys."

"Don't worry, we will definitely help you get the monkey out when we get back with someone, but you have to show us the way first."

"Okay, okay, Xiaofeng City is just to the east. Just keep going along this path. Don't go into the mountains or the forests. There are monsters there. Cross the river, turn left at the first fork in the road, turn right at the second fork, and you'll be there—"

After they arrived, they thanked him and immediately set off.

The two men rode along the road towards the east.

Sure enough, after walking for a while, we saw a small river. The water was very shallow and we could see several giant river crabs more than one meter wide crawling around in the river.

Xiao Jie used Beast Identification to check and found that it was only level 8 or 9 and its skills were not very good, so he ignored it. Otherwise, it would be quite cool to catch a big crab.

They continued to move forward, following the path pointed out by the woodcutter, passing the first fork in the road, and then the second fork in the road, avoiding the mountains and dense forests. At around three o'clock, the two finally saw the towering walls of Xiaofeng City.

"Ha, we're finally here! Let's go into the city and go to Xuanxu Palace tomorrow."

Xuanxu Palace is located on a mountain to the north of Xiaofeng City. It is very close. Once you arrive in Xiaofeng City, Xuanxu Palace is basically not far away.

The two entered the city and looked at the level 26 elite guards at the city gate, and finally felt relieved.

The sense of security that this big city gives people is unmatched even by Luoyang Town.
