I've expended too much energy, let's eat something good to calm down. We don't usually get to see scenery like this.
I took a chicken burger from the space. It's the only one that doesn't require a bowl, so it's quite convenient to eat. I had just taken a bite when I suddenly smelled a fishy, foul odor.
Jian Ning turned her head and saw a huge ape suddenly poking its head out of the crack. Its eyes were fixed on the hamburger in her hand. Drooling was dripping from its mouth, and the strong wind was blowing its fur wildly.
But none of them were cut.
This was a bit unbelievable to her. She clearly remembered that the wind blowing from this very crack had sliced the eagle into several pieces. How could it be failing now?
However, seeing the monkey's longing eyes and its constant drooling, I still threw the hamburger in my hand to it.
A creature that can survive in such a harsh environment is definitely not a simple species. Perhaps it is like the fire dragon in the third level, a being that has gained sentience.
The monkey snatched the hamburger, grinning at Jian Ning. Then, wrapper and all, it was about to stuff it into its mouth. Jian Ning quickly called out to it.
"Wait, you can't eat that piece of paper outside. You have to peel it open and throw it away like I did."
As Jian Ning spoke, she took out another hamburger from her spatial storage, peeled off the outer wrapping paper, revealing the hamburger inside, and then took a bite.
The monkey immediately understood and ripped off the outer packaging that it had just half-opened.
Then he stuffed the whole hamburger into his big mouth, chewed it twice, swallowed it, and showed a satisfied expression. Then he stretched out his paw towards Jian Ning.
Looking at its enormous body, Jian Ning estimated that even fifty hamburgers wouldn't be enough to fill its teeth.
After thinking for a moment, I took out a roast duck from my spatial storage. It was flavorful and large, and should be enough to fill me up.
The monkey caught the roast duck that Jian Ning threw to it, took a bite, and then danced with joy. It was clear that this was more to its liking, and it ran away quickly with the roast duck in its arms.
Watching it disappear into the distance, Jian Ning continued her descent. The cliff seemed bottomless. She moved down inch by inch, with no idea when it would end.
I forgot to mention I already gave that monkey food. If only it could carry me down!
This is clearly an indigenous person; they must be very familiar with the terrain here. Didn't you see that even the strong winds have no effect on it?
But the monkey had already run away, so she could only continue to probe her way down with the branches. She finally reached a point seventy or eighty meters down, and her branches were almost all used up.
I didn't notice anything different about this place except for the strong winds.
What exactly is this test? It hasn't appeared yet. Jian Ning couldn't help but feel anxious. So much time had already been wasted...
Xiao Lingfeng will be worried when he comes looking for her tomorrow and finds she's not in the house.
Next time, I should tell him in advance that I might disappear for a while someday. Just think of it as seclusion for training. There's no need to look for me; I'll reappear automatically when the time comes.
While her mind was wandering, the giant ape suddenly reappeared in Jian Ning's line of sight. Its mouth was covered in grease, and it was holding a duck leg in its hand.
It grinned at her from a distance, then jumped right in front of Jian Ning.
She held out her hand, revealing a red fruit in her palm, about the size of a pear. Jian Ning didn't know what kind it was; it seemed she was here to trade for something. And she'd gotten addicted to it.
Jian Ning took the fruit and then a roast duck, but instead of handing it to the duck, she asked, "Can you take me down with you? To avoid the wind in this crevice of the cliff?"
The monkey bared its teeth, gestured with its hands, and pointed at the roast duck in Jian Ning's hand.
"Okay, I'll give you two, but we need to agree beforehand that you have to avoid the wind and not let it cut me in half, or how about this?"
I'll tie a rope around your neck, and by holding onto the rope in front of you, you should be protected from the wind.
Jian Ning dared not let it carry her; the safety factor was too low.
The monkey squeaked twice, then gestured with its paws. Jian Ning immediately understood that this meant agreement. It seems that neither humans nor animals can resist the allure of delicious food.
So I added another roast duck to my hand, handed it to the monkey, and it snatched it and disappeared in a flash, its speed almost like lightning.
Jian Ning was stunned for a moment, not expecting that this animal would also go back on its word.
Thankfully, it was just two ducks; I won't fall for that trick again next time.
She gave a wry smile and tossed the red fruit into her storage bracelet. She didn't dare eat this unknown species; what if it was poisonous?
Since we ran out of branches, we had to go back to our spatial storage and get another bundle from the fruit tree. That was the only one we could use without feeling bad. There wasn't much else we could do.
They tentatively walked down less than fifty meters. Suddenly, the ape jumped out from the left.
He was also holding a bamboo basket in his hand, which was very finely woven.
It's clearly handmade; these animals couldn't have woven it. Could there be humans living at the bottom of this cliff? Otherwise, where did this thing come from?
As Jian Ning was wondering, the monkey held the bamboo basket to its chest, gesturing for Jian Ning to sit inside.
It turns out that it didn't run away with the roast duck, but went back to get Jian Ning's things. This guy's intelligence is extraordinary.
The two were very close, but Jian Ning still cautiously tested the waters with a branch.
Was there any strong wind blowing at such a close distance? The branches stretched all the way up to the top of the bamboo basket without breaking. Jian Ning then leaped directly into the bamboo basket.
This monkey was over three meters tall. It held the bamboo basket as if it were a toy, carefully protecting it in its arms. In a few leaps, it disappeared from sight.
Jian Ning could only hear the wind whistling past her ears; she couldn't see anything outside. However, she could clearly sense that this ape was unafraid of the strong winds.
One reason is its own strength, and the other is that it clearly has the fluctuations of an array.
Someone must have placed a spirit array on it, which is why it can move freely between these cliffs without fear of the strong winds.
The monkey was incredibly fast; in just a few breaths, Li Baozhu was released from the bamboo basket.
Only then did Jian Ning realize that she was not at the bottom of the cliff, but in mid-air, surrounded by white clouds that seemed within reach.
There was a huge stone platform beneath our feet.
It was actually carved out by a person with a sword.
This demonstrates profound skill; one wonders who this great master is, who might even be the owner of this monkey.
