C3 What Do You See

After a while, Lin Sen reached the bottom of the valley.

At this moment, Lee Li was standing in front of a cave in a daze. He looked at the sky that was gradually brightening, and the day that was gradually getting brighter. He lazily yawned as a trace of fatigue rose up in his heart. The giant ape made him wait outside the cave for a long time. From the pitch black night to the bright day, it didn't have the slightest intention of letting him in. Lee Li was naturally bored. Looking at the chirping birds on the treetops, he had an impulse to go into the hole to see what was going on.

"Thump …" "BOOM!"

The sound of footsteps suddenly came from the entrance of the cave. Lee Li hurriedly stood up and revealed a happy expression, but seeing that the giant golden-furred ape came out lifelessly, looking at the bright sky above, his gaze swept around before stopping on Lee Li. He sighed and said with an impatient expression, "You … "Come in!"

Lee Li was surprised for a moment, then nodded and quickly followed her. The cave wasn't big, and it just happened to allow the giant ape to pass through. However, compared to Lee Li, it was much wider, and when they entered deeper in, the ceiling of the cave would occasionally be illuminated by light from the skylight. Also, the sound of flowing water could be heard in the cave.

After about a minute of walking, he turned around and walked down the stone steps. Then, he saw the main room of the cave. It was spacious and spacious, dry and cozy, with a few simple stone tables and chairs arranged in the center of the room. Beside it was a small mountain spring pool, which was quiet and comfortable, with clear spring water pouring into the pool from time to time.

"Sit down," the giant ape said carelessly. Its hoarse voice had a hint of coldness in it. It looked at Lee Li and laughed. Then, it sat down nervously. It frowned and sighed heavily, "I really don't know what he is thinking. He would choose these weak humans. Sigh …"

Lee Li's voice entered his ears, but he did not dare to make a sound. He was like a child facing a teacher who was about to be criticized.

"Look at the pool," the giant ape said coldly while also turning its gaze in that direction.

Lee Li turned his head and looked over, his gaze was fixated on a small pond. The water in the pool was crystal clear, with pebbles and chess arranged on the bottom. Water and fish flowed between the cracks, and the silver scales reflected a dazzling radiance under the light from the upper skylight. However, it only bloomed for a moment before disappearing in a flash.

"What did you see?" The giant ape asked.

"Water, and fish …" Lee Li replied woodenly. His nervous face showed that he was afraid of losing something.

"Humph!" The giant ape suddenly let out a cold snort, scaring Lee Li to the point that his whole body started to sweat, "You just stay here and watch! I'll ask you again tomorrow at this time. " After he had finished speaking, he walked towards the cave entrance and disappeared without a trace.

Lee Li was dumbstruck. He stared at the pool for a long time but still couldn't find anything. Am I wrong? There were stones at the bottom of the pool? He muttered to himself as he stood in this unknown stone chamber. In his heart, he felt uneasy, and even had a faint thought of withdrawing, but he was afraid of the giant ape's great power. He did not dare to move even half a step out of the cave as he stared blankly at the pool and did not say a word …

On the second day, Lee Li woke up early in the morning. Although he was still sleepy, he didn't dare to sleep in this unfamiliar and dangerous place. He blinked his sleepy eyes, yawned, and looked at the lake that he was tired of yesterday, feeling frustrated.

"See what?"

The giant ape's voice suddenly came from behind. Lee Li was surprised and smiled humbly, "I saw it! Not only are there water and fish, there are also rocks, aquatic plants … "

"Stupid!" The giant ape didn't wait for him to finish his sentence before it let out a loud roar. Golden ripples rippled all over its body and it was filled with anger, "Continue watching!"

"Ugh …" Lee Li swallowed his saliva, and could only continue to look at the pond obediently. Although his stomach was growling, he didn't dare to complain, because the giant ape went for another day, and on the third day, Lee Li was starving with his chest against his back. He was weak all over, his eyes were dizzy, and his stomach was growling non-stop, and because he had been hungry for too long, the discomfort he felt seemed to have become numbing, and he felt like it was about to disappear. Suddenly, Lee Li's eyes lit up! He shouted loudly.

"I saw it!" I saw it! I finally saw it! "

Accompanying the excited cries, the giant ape slowly walked out of the cave. It spoke as if it was questioning Su Ming without a hint of emotion in its voice, "What did you see?"

"Food!" Lee Li replied. In his excitement, he lost his previous fear and cowardice.

"Hmm?" The giant ape thought for a moment and actually nodded its head helplessly, "Even if you barely pass, you have already been here for two days. I believe you are also hungry." There are one or two fruit trees north of the stone steps of the Heaven's Altar outside the cave. They are in the mature season now, so if you can find them, then you can solve the problem of your hunger. But if you can't, then … Let's starve to death here! " The giant ape said coldly. Waves of chilliness caused one's heart to tremble.

"Goo …" Lee Li's eyes flashed with stars. After answering twice, he hurriedly walked towards the entrance of the cave. Suddenly, he heard the giant ape yell again, "That's right! "Don't leave the area for more than 100 meters, the wild beasts in the forest have been active during the day, don't turn back and find the food but instead make food for others!"

"Oh," Lee Li muttered. His brisk footsteps immediately slowed down a little. In his heart, he was resentful towards this giant ape for being unreasonable. He feared that he had done it at least a thousand times...

Walking out of the cave, the sky was sunny, the fresh air was cool and pure, and the fragrance assailed the nose. Lee Li took a deep breath and carefully searched in the complex forest, looking around from time to time for any movements. Because of the giant ape's warning, it could be seen that the wariness in his heart had obviously increased.

Lee Li seemed to have found a fruit tree in the forest within ten or so minutes. The fruit was red and had a nice fragrance, without much hesitation, the first thing he did was to climb up, take a bunch of fruits from left and right and put them into his pocket, chewing and swallowing them in large mouthfuls. This fruit was indeed the product of the wild forest; it was sweet and not greasy, sweet and refreshing, until his stomach was full, then he excitedly jumped down from the tree branch, wiped his mouth with satisfaction, and quickly left.

When he returned to the cave, the giant ape was already sitting on a rock beside the stone bench. It took out a mountain deer from nowhere to roast on the firewood. The burnt skin and the fragrance of meat filled the air, causing Lee Li's stomach to feel even hungrier. After all, how could those ordinary wild fruits be enough to fill their stomachs?

The giant ape glanced at him and continued roasting the mountain deer in its hand. However, its mouth was cold as it said, "Are you full?"

Lee Li nodded. He glanced at the mountain deer and swallowed his saliva. Suddenly, he felt wronged and uncomfortable.

"You didn't even look at the poison in the fruit, you just saw how impatient it was to eat it. Aren't you afraid of dying from the poison here?" The giant ape asked in disdain.

"Ah …" Lee Li was shocked, "No..." "No way...

"This..." The giant ape coldly snorted and said, "I'll have to wait for your death before I can tell you!"

"Ah!" No …. "That …" Lee Li turned pale with fright. His face turned pale like an ant on a hot pan. "But, I don't want to die!

"Is that so?"

The giant ape glanced at him disapprovingly, but remained extremely calm. It humphed slowly and coldly, "Then tell me a reason why you can't die, and I'll consider coming to save you."

The roasted deer in his hand continued to spin around and around as he said those words. However, he clearly viewed Lee Li's life as child's play …

"About that," Lee Li was a bit incoherent in his panic, "I … I still have my parents and family. For them, I can't die! And... "Besides, I'm still so young, and I just died like that. It's not like …" He stuttered out a lot of words, but his eyes were brimming with tears, as if he was about to cry at any moment.

"Oh?" The giant ape sneered. "Good. What are you worried about after I give your corpse to them?"

Lee Li's face turned red. He looked at the giant ape and didn't know what to say.

"So you're saying that you're afraid of death?"

The giant ape continued to laugh. It was cold, but facing Lee Li opposite of it, it was like the grim reaper's grin!

"I …" Lee Li hesitated for a moment and stopped his tears, "It's not that I'm afraid of death, but I don't want to die in such a worthless manner. At least, before I die, I should do something for my family, but …"

"Valid?" The giant ape laughed loudly. "What a valuable death!" "Well, you've got a bit of an appetite for me.

"Hmm?" Lee Li looked up with a puzzled expression.

"You don't need to know about this. The senior told me to pass this sacred scripture to a human, and I will not neglect to waste it on a weak and pedantic person. You are kind and compassionate, and you take a fancy to the true nature of life, so it can be considered barely. However, this fruit does not have poison …"

Lee Li was overjoyed. The rock that was hanging in his heart finally fell to the ground, "What about you... Is it a test? "

The giant ape sneered, "Then so be it. I want to test whether you are qualified to stay here or not. As for this ancient Holy Demon Scripture, you are not qualified to take a look at it!"

"Oh," Lee Li bitterly lowered his head. However, he didn't feel too disappointed after turning back and forth from that hellish door just now.

"You're not curious … "Who am I?"

The giant ape suddenly raised its head and asked.

"You?"

Lee Li thought for a while, then his mind started to work quickly, as if all of his intelligence had started to focus on this question, "Who are you? This doesn't seem to have anything to do with the ancient texts that I'm about to learn, does it? "

It took him a long time before he managed to come up with such an answer. Even though his words were tinged with disrespect, he felt that it was reasonable and out of the ordinary.

"Oh?"

The giant ape was very surprised. "Your brain has reacted quite quickly. I'm satisfied with your answer. Sometimes, you can just ignore everything for your goal. You can be considered to have improved a little by being able to understand this."

Lee Li chuckled and lowered his head in silence.

"Alright, you should go to the stone chamber on the left to rest for a while, and come back to see me tomorrow. But I hope that you will be able to use your human intelligence to do things in the future, don't think that this is too difficult," the giant ape said.

"Mm," Lee Li responded and turned around to follow the giant ape's gaze.

Inside the cave, the giant ape's soft sigh still echoed in the air, "Sigh …" I hope that he can bring some hope to our Tongyuyi Clan … "
