Legend of Shi’En - C120
“That’s the way it is.” The Elder Farmer wailed.
Shi En rubbed his smooth chin, and said: “Elder Farmer, you’ve wasted our Uncle Zhu Xiaoshen’s four chapters thinking about these memories. It’s really worth of a storyline.”
“What?” “What are you talking about? I don’t understand.” The old man was stunned. He took off his bamboo hat and touched his head, which had a few strands of hair, as he asked.
“Nothing, nothing. And then you went with that girl to that hunter village and raised that Siya Ape together? Yes, yes and no? ” Shi En stood up, took off all of his Qi, and immediately put on his clothes. Just now, after the battle ended, a cold wind blew, causing him to almost catch a cold.
“En, you’re right, we hid it from everyone in the Huntress Village to feed Wu Kong, and only when he had grown to the point where he had the ability to protect himself, did we release him back into the forest. He also lived up to everyone’s expectations and became the master of this mountain, living a very comfortable life.
Shi En walked over to the Siya Ape’s side and pulled out the wooden sword that was stuck onto its demonic claws with all his might. He placed the sword over his shoulder and frowned as he asked: “Half a year ago? Did something happen half a year ago? ”
The grandpa swept away the snow on his head and put on his bamboo hat again. “Sigh, I don’t know if you guys have noticed, but there is a strange reed growing on top of Wu Kong’s head.”
“Yeah, I noticed it. It looks like the head of a ginseng.” Shi En lowered his head to look at the reed head of the Siya Ape that had a long pelt and beard, “What exactly is this thing? Elder Farmer. ”
“I don’t know where this thing appeared from. I only know that no matter who it is, as long as they are parasitized by that strange ginseng, they will become living fertilizer to feed it.” As he said that, he came to the side of the gorilla that Shi En mistook as a “Ginseng Spirit”. Squatting down, he took out his torch and shot it on the head, then continued to speak to the others: “These parasitic creatures will gradually lose their self-awareness, turning into monsters that hunt continuously in order to obtain the fertilizer required for the ginseng. The gorilla that you picked up just now might have been killed by Wu Kong, so it is necessary to kill this ginseng spirit, otherwise some other living creatures will become parasitic again.”
“It’s that scary?” “If you put it this way, then isn’t there only death for the parasitic creatures? Is there any other way to get rid of this damn ginseng spirit?”
There’s no other way. Wu Kong is not only hunting on the mountain, but in recent days, he has also been running to the village down the mountain to destroy people’s fields and attack the villagers. The village has suffered from devastating damage, and our Hunter’s Village is no exception.
“That is why I came forward to stop it. Although I am not young anymore, I cannot watch helplessly as my own child goes down the wrong path. Even if, at the end, I have to personally bury him, I will not be lenient.”
“Eh, looks like the two ginseng we dug up can’t be eaten. We wasted one night of effort and ended up empty-handed. Ai, there’s no other way. Let’s go down now, eh?” Where is our ginseng? ” Shi En felt in his pockets and found that it was completely empty.
Seeing that Shi En’s clothes were in a mess, Shu Xiaoxiao arranged his clothes and said: “I already gave the ginseng to Shang Qian.”
Hearing that, Shi En turned around and shouted at Shang Qian: “White-haired Boy, where are our ginseng?”
“Ginseng, let me take a look. Uh, it’s missing. Let me think, did it drop somewhere during the fight?” Shang Qian carried Zhu Xiaochang, and looked around for ginseng. Fortunately, the sky had already brightened up, and there was sufficient light, so it was not troublesome to search for it.
Shi En stopped Shang Qian from continuing his search, and said: “Forget it, there’s no need to look for me, it’s fine if I drop it, we can’t eat this anyway. I don’t want to wake up the next day with a ginseng head growing on my head.”
“All of you can go down the mountain. Leave this place to me.” Elder Farmer placed the fire powder back on, aimed at the ginseng head on the Siya Ape’s head, and said with a low voice: “Men’s battles are sacred, we cannot be disturbed, right, Wu Kong.”
Shi En shrugged and patted Elder Farmer’s shoulder. He originally wanted to tell him: “The child is disobedient, it will be hungry for two days, a beating will be fine.” Suddenly, he felt that this situation wasn’t suitable for a joke, so he said: “We won’t get involved in your family matters. Guys, let’s go down the mountain.”
After Shi En and the others left the mountain, Elder Farmer tried several times but failed to pull the trigger. Looking at the Siya Ape’s familiar face, he was really unable to control himself and could not make a move.
His mind kept replaying the scenes of the past. From the first time he had seen it, to when he had travelled back and forth along the mountain path beneath the cliff, to the first time he had learned to walk towards the embrace of a young girl, to the first time he had learned to climb a tree to help him quench his thirst. In ordinary days, he had even married and raised a young girl to her.
Facing such a situation, he could do nothing in his heart because the little life did not remember the past. It only knew how to kill. He could not let it go because he was the one who caused the monster. He would never forget that when he was in the cave, he kindly gave a wild ginseng to the Maternal Siya Ape and the Maternal Siya Ape gave it to the newborn little Siya Ape. It was this wild ginseng that had led to this ending.
“Sorry, Wu Kong, don’t worry. I will accompany you forever. Your two mothers are waiting for us in the sky to find them.” Elder Farmer was already full of tears. He couldn’t even hold the fire properly properly in his hands. At this time, the Siya Ape trembled and stood up. It did not make any other movements, but rather knelt in front of Elder Farmer like a human and kowtowed three times, causing the ground to immediately shake.
Following that, the Siya Ape lowered its head and placed the ginseng head that had grown on its head in front of Elder Farmer. Elder Farmer choked with emotions. “Good child, let’s go find your mother together.”
“Bam!” The whole mountain echoed with gunshots.
Shi En and the rest turned their heads to look at the sound, only to see that at the top of the mountain there were rays of fire, which were constantly spreading down the mountain, and they believed that it would not be long before the entire mountain was completely burnt.
Shang Qian’s face was filled with panic, “Oh no, there’s a fire, there’s a fire on the mountain, Brother Shi En.”
“Calm down, this fire should have been set by the Elder Farmer.” “It seems that Elder Farmer had already planned to burn the mountains from the beginning, which was why they had gasoline everywhere. That’s right, only with this Blazing Mountain, would we be able to completely destroy the strange ginseng on the mountain. Otherwise, if these strange ginseng were to enter the outside world, the number of people who would be harmed would be even greater.”
“Alright, let’s hurry up and go down the mountain.” Shu Xiaoxiao pointed at the tree at the side of the cliff with his sharp chin, and said: “If the fire spreads to the back of this tree, before we even leave the mountain, we might be hurt by accident.”
Shi En frowned and asked: “What’s wrong? Did you find anything? ”
Shu Xiaoxiao blinked his eyes and then said to Shi En: “There are quite a few explosives at the back of that tree. I estimate the explosive range to be a few hundred kilometers, and their destructive power is about the same as your normal palm with fifty percent of your internal force.”
“Then what are you still saying, hurry up and run.”
The situation was urgent, and Shi En ignored the surrounding ‘External Devil Beast’ who were hiding behind trees, hurriedly pulling Shu Xiaoxiao’s hand, then following her bodyguards to run towards the best route indicated on the display device. Fortunately, the few of them had recovered some of their strength, otherwise, something really would have happened.
Finally at the last moment, Shi En and the rest reached the bottom of the mountain, looking at the entire mountain that was burning fiercely, Shi En wiped the sweat off his forehead, “Look at the fire, it seems that Elder Farmer has set his heart on fire, it snowed last night, I never expected that it would burn so fiercely.” Suddenly, a trace of heaviness shot out from Shi En’s eyes, “I wonder if Elder Farmer will be able to escape.”
