There are groups of wild animals in the nearby mountains and forests, and they also look for food everywhere in winter, including bears that occasionally wake up from hibernation when the weather is good, bison that do not hibernate, red deer, coyotes, etc. They often appear a few miles away, but they never set foot in this valley, and even birds of prey rarely fly here.
There are no walls or barbed wire barriers here, and there is no dangerous atmosphere that would make birds and animals uneasy. Why don't they consciously come close? Because of this, the environment of this valley is very safe and will not be attacked by wild animals. Word of mouth among wild travelers has attracted many people to choose to camp here.
"I'm afraid there is only one explanation for this. This is the territory of some kind of monster. It once expelled the nearby birds and beasts and carved out an area equivalent to the concept of territory. Once the nearby birds and animals get used to it, they will no longer set foot here. But if that's the case, why didn't this monster expel the tourists camping here? Cheng Tianle has been sitting here for such a long time without seeing it.
Is there another reason for all this, or has something happened recently?
In the middle of doubt, Cheng Tianle suddenly turned his head and saw the monster he was looking for. There were not just one but five monsters. They were not humanoid but furry and adorable: a marmot, a prairie dog, a river A raccoon dog, a red squirrel, and a jackrabbit. They were outside the dense forest at the edge of the valley, peeping out from the snow.
The distance is still very far, and their location is also very hidden. Most people can't notice it at all, but Cheng Tianle sensed it and saw it clearly. It is almost impossible for these five animals to get together, and it is in this snowy winter. It is obviously abnormal, and the only reasonable explanation is that they are all monster beasts that have opened their minds. They all know each other and are acting together.
Xiao Shao also discovered it and whispered in Cheng Tianle's ear: "Heart Marrow Flame!"
Seeing these five cute animals, how could Xiao Shao think of Xin Mui Yan? Because she sensed the breath of the Heart Marrow Flame. To be precise, it was not the breath of the Heart Marrow Flame itself, but a trace of the vitality and rhythmic characteristics of these five cute creatures that were refined and refined in the origin of the spiritual breath of heaven and earth. Traces of God. Xiao Shao had practiced and realized this way during this period, so he was very sensitive to this.
These five monsters should all have passed the test of the Dan Fire Tribulation, but have not yet broken through the Demon Realm Tribulation. According to the Kunlun monks, he has not yet become a master of elixirs, and he cannot yet become a human being based on the level of demon cultivation. But they already have innate magical powers, and what's more special is that they have used the heart flames that permeate the sky and earth to refine their shapes.
With their cultivation level, it is impossible to sense the existence of the Heart Marrow Flame, let alone extract the original aura that permeates the world, but it happens that they have such characteristics in their cultivation. How is this done? Even Cheng Tianle was curious. He sent a spiritual thought from a distance: "Where are you from? Is this a blessed place for your cultivation? I'm sorry to disturb you, can you come over and talk about it?"
Of course he spoke in English, but the spiritual thoughts contained not only language and sentences, but also information and images. You can communicate even if you don't understand the language. As for how much the other party can understand, it depends on the level of their spiritual intelligence. This is how Cheng Tianle communicated with Daxue, who had not yet transformed and had never learned to speak.
The five monsters were startled by the sudden spiritual thought that came into their minds. It was obviously the first time for them to encounter such a thing. The man on the top of the hill was so far away, why did he suddenly speak? Moreover, the sound and meaning can be directly imprinted into the soul. This is amazing! But after all, they are also monsters with intelligence and cultivation, and they immediately understood that Jin Tan had encountered a powerful existence beyond their imagination.
They jumped out of the snow. But he didn't dare to move, and for a moment he didn't know whether to come over or run away immediately. Xiao Shao sent another spiritual thought: "Don't be afraid, we don't mean any harm. This place is very special. Birds and beasts almost never come near it. Is it because of you? In this way, we can be considered as disturbing your guests. .¡±
"Xiao Shao's voice was very nice, with a sense of comfort for some reason, and the five cute animals finally jumped towards this side. They climbed to the top of the mountain, but did not dare to get too close. They stared at the two with curious eyes from a few meters away.
Cheng Tianle and Xiao Shao also looked at them with kind smiles, making these monsters unaware of danger and malice. In the end, it was Marmot who sniffed and spoke first: "Who are you? No one has ever spoken to us like this before, and they can tell at a glance that we are extraordinary!"
As soon as it opened its mouth, the other four cute creatures also rushed to speak. The prairie dog straightened up and bared his teeth: "We are so far away, how did you find us?"
The beaver shook his coir-like hair and said: "Why don't you barbecue? Do you know how to barbecue?Why did you come here in the winter? Where is the tent?"
The red squirrel is smartHe said: "They are capable people, more capable than us. Of course they don't need to eat barbecue or live in tents. Hey, where are you from, China?"
The long-eared rabbit stood up straight, puffed out his chest and twisted his waist and said: "How do you know this is our territory?Are you two hugging and making out? Why don't you go to the hot spring?"
These cute animals all spoke English, and their voices suddenly sounded messy when they spoke together. Fortunately, Cheng Tianle and Xiao Shao could distinguish them clearly. The two of them were also a little stunned, feeling as if they saw a group of cute cartoon characters popping out of animation.
Cheng Tian laughed happily and said: "We are indeed monks from China. We passed through the precious treasure land to confirm the way of practice. You have not yet passed through the demon realm, condensed the demon pill and transformed, but you can already speak human words. Rarely encountered. This shows that the skill of training is quite good, but it lacks the guidance of inheritance and has not yet reached that stage of self-realization."
"The Demon Sect is the Demon Sect. These words came out as soon as they opened their mouths, and they were explained with spiritual thoughts. Several cute animals were stunned for a moment, and then they all jumped up to Cheng Tianle, chattering and asking - can you elaborate on what he just said? These guys forgot about their fear as soon as they opened their mouths. Looking at their posture, they almost wanted to jump on Cheng Tianle. Xiao Shao, who was still sitting in Cheng Tianle's arms, stood up and sat aside.
"Obviously, it was the first time for these monsters to meet humans who communicated with them like this. Moreover, these two humans were neither surprised nor afraid, and they understood the secrets of their cultivation. They were also very curious and excited. Xiao Shao waved his hand and said: "Don't be anxious, speak slowly one by one. Have you answered the question just now? What is going on in this place?"
After talking for a long time, Cheng Tianle and Xiao Shao figured out the situation. They are all self-realized demon cultivators in this area. Coincidentally, they transformed into demons at about the same time, and their areas of activity are not far apart. After they became monsters, they realized that they had become a kind of existence that transcended their own race. They had many problems that they could no longer communicate with ordinary people of the same kind. Then they sensed that each other was this kind of existence in their respective races, so they began to be curious. After testing and communicating with each other, a small team or a small gang was formed.
They can no longer remember how many years they have lived here, but since they have clear memories, snowflakes have been falling for more than ten winters. They chose to stop and practice in the same generation and share a cave. This valley is not too far from the road, and there is a wild trail leading to this spot, which is very suitable for camping. Some people have come here for picnics a long time ago.
These monsters are also secretly observing this human being, and often run to the nearby mountains to spy on the vehicles on the road. They are very curious and longing for the inheritance of civilization in the human world, and they have been imitating it intentionally or unintentionally. After passing through the calamity of Dan Fire, they gradually became able to speak human words, and they also gave themselves names, namely Jimmy, Kitty, Ji Rui, Ji Xi, and Jin Ni.
As for the name Dan Fire Tribulation, these monsters have never heard of it, and they have never made a theoretical summary of the practice, but they can all understand it once Cheng Tianle explains it. Because these five cute animals practiced together, they learned that each other had some similar experiences, and they also had a vague conceptual understanding of various problems encountered in cultivation. This was the result of spontaneous realization and communication and confirmation.
During the conversation, Cheng Tianle explained the various problems of monster cultivation and the details of the various realms. It was like an enlightenment to these five cute creatures. Many problems that had not been figured out before were suddenly enlightened, and many unexpected problems were also suddenly understood. . But it was a bit difficult to talk to these five guys, because they were chattering in a chaotic mess. Monster cultivation was only mentioned intermittently, and they also introduced some of their own situations.
The Five Demons discovered that tourists came here to camp more than ten years ago. People chatted, barbecued, drank, sang, soaked in hot springs, and shot field guns They were also watching in secret. Back then, a group of people's campsite was attacked by a bear. They secretly drove the bear away and saved the group of campers. Neither the bear hurt anyone nor anyone else. Later, they cleared the area and drove away birds and animals from entering the valley. Over time, this place became a quiet place.
Cheng Tianle asked: "You have expelled this generation of birds and beasts and made it a safe camping ground for tourists. But why didn't you expel the campers who broke into this place in the first place? This is your training ground, why do you always let people Come to disturb me?"
The prairie dog straightened up and rubbed a pair of front paws, twisting around like a human and saying: "We are not stupid, we are smart! You humans are the largest, smartest, and most organized community, and you have each other. Collusion. If a few of us hurt someone, we might attract more and more people, and we can¡¯t afford to offend anyone. We¡¯ll be lucky if we don¡¯t get caught as monsters!¡± (To be continued.
