That's right.

This opponent that gave Jiang Chen a bit of a headache was none other than a successful monkey king.

actually.

Based on the recent clues, Jiang Chen had long guessed that the culprit behind the haunting incident in Cangsai Mountain should be an earth-level spirit, but he didn't know what kind of animal it was before.

When the two of them fought just now, Jiang Chen was able to identify the other party's identity through the dim moonlight.

And the opponent's "monkey stealing peach" move just now undoubtedly proved its identity very well.

Looking at the monkey king with red eyes and standing only on two feet, Jiang Chen finally understood why those who were frightened on the mountain said that the murderer was a woman with red eyes.

Perhaps due to successful cultivation, this monkey king is taller than ordinary monkeys, but smaller and slimmer than humans. Moreover, it can stand and walk completely on its two hind legs, and it does not have the rickety and bent body of ordinary monkeys.

With such a figure appearing in the dark night, it is easy for people to mistake her for a petite woman.

Moreover, coupled with her "fiery eyes", isn't she just a "woman with red eyes"?

In the close fight just now, Jiang Chen had already seen the whole picture of the Monkey King.

But.

Although Jiang Chen had often visited deep mountains and dense forests since he was a child, he still couldn't identify what kind of monkey the other party was.

Possibly due to mutation caused by cultivation, this monkey king has strange pure white hair on its body, and a ring of golden hair on the top of its head, making it look like it is wearing a crown.

at this time.

The monkey king stared at Jiang Chen closely, and at the same time gently fiddled with the arm sealed by Jiang Chen. As a white light flashed, its arm was soon able to move again.

Seeing that the Monkey King instantly released the seal on his arm, Jiang Chen did not show any surprise. After all, the opponent was an earth-level spirit, and it was not unusual to have such a method.

but.

One thing that surprised Jiang Chen was that the Monkey King who had released the seal on his arm did not run away immediately, but still stood there and looked at Jiang Chen.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Chen slowly took two steps forward. When the Monkey King on the opposite side saw this, he immediately stepped back.

"Oh~ let's run..."

Seeing the Monkey King retreat, Jiang Chen thought that the Monkey King was going to run away.

However, as soon as this thought arose in his mind, he suddenly noticed that the Monkey King took two steps back and then stopped immediately.

Jiang Chen was startled for a moment, then tentatively took a few steps forward, only for the monkey king to take a few steps back again.

Looking at the Monkey King who had been staring at him closely, Jiang Chen seemed to suddenly think of something and reacted instantly.

He suddenly remembered the monkeys he had seen before: when they see tourists, the little monkeys on the mountain like to move forward, but once they find that the tourists are angry, they will immediately run away and hide away until the surroundings are safe.

Come closer.

Looking at it now, isn't the behavior of the monkey king in front of me somewhat similar to that of the little monkeys on the mountain?

Maybe this is nature that is hard to change?!

Thinking of this, Jiang Chen did not approach any further, but stood still and spoke directly.

"Little monkey, I know you can talk, you don't have to pretend anymore."

Jiang Chen directly exposed the Monkey King's disguise. He had already heard the Monkey King speak when he was pretending to be unconscious.

On the other side, after being exposed by Jiang Chen, the monkey king did not look embarrassed like a human. He scratched his back with his front paws, and then said in a weird accent.

"I have nothing to say to you, a human being."

Hearing this, Jiang Chen immediately smiled slightly. What he was most afraid of was that the other party would ignore him. As long as the other party spoke, he would most likely ask what he wanted to know.

"Little monkey, if you want to kill me, you have to give me an explanation, right? You can't let me die in a daze, right?"

As soon as these words came out, the monkey king suddenly felt as if someone had touched a painful spot. He immediately became angry and all the hair on his body stood up instantly.

"You humans usually kill my kind at will, but now you ask me without knowing it?"

After hearing this, Jiang Chen understood instantly.

He didn't expect that a joke he overheard before going up the mountain would actually come true.

The cause of the haunting incident in Cangsai Mountain is actually due to those people poaching small animals and collecting medicinal herbs.

Jiang Chen suddenly said that he wanted to hunt wild game tonight, naturally he wanted to verify this conjecture in his heart, but he never expected that he actually attracted this monkey king.

At this time, another question in his mind was also explained clearly.

Before, he was a little confused as to why the murderer behind the scenes was able to monitor the entire Cangsai Mountain all the time. It turned out that it was not the monkey king who was affected at all, but the little monkeys below him.

Thinking of this, Jiang Chen asked again.

"Just for this reason, you killed several people in succession?"

"What if I kill those people?"

It was obvious that the Monkey King's anger had not subsided, and there was still a bit of hostility in his words.

"Those people have killed the creatures on the mountain more than once. I don't know how many lives have been lost in their hands. They all deserved their death."

The monkey king's answer was similar to Jiang Chen's guess. It was indeed the murderer who killed those poachers, and was also the culprit of the entire haunted incident on Cangsai Mountain.

but.

Jiang Chen had no murderous intentions towards this Monkey King. After meeting the old people at Luan Xiaoqing's cousin's house, he felt a little more sympathetic towards this Monkey King.

While Jiang Chen was stunned, the Monkey King actually bent down, picked up a stone as big as a human head, and threw it towards him.

"You actually carried out a sneak attack?"

Looking at the stone that was making a whirring sound in mid-air and quickly coming towards him, Jiang Chen gave a strange laugh and swung his dragon whisker pen to sweep it up.

"Crack!"

The stone as big as a human head was immediately smashed into pieces by the dragon whisker pen, and then Jiang Chen gently waved his hand and swept all the gravel aside to avoid hitting the two people on the ground behind him.

After sweeping away the gravel, Jiang Chen also took out an object from his body and threw it towards the Monkey King.

Different from Jiang Chen's previous reaction, when faced with Jiang Chen's attack, the Monkey King did not directly block it, but directly dodged it.

Then, it picked up a boulder again and threw it towards Jiang Chen.

On the other side, Jiang Chen still wielded the Dragon Beard Pen to smash the boulders, sweep away the gravel, and then launched a counterattack.

...

On Cangsai Mountain at midnight, accompanied by bursts of howling wind, a man and a monkey kept throwing objects at each other.

At this time, only the person involved knew that it was two earth-level strong men fighting here; uninformed people might mistakenly think that it was two naive children fighting with each other.

Such a fight undoubtedly pleased the Monkey King, who was having a great time at the moment.

However.

Just when it was about to throw the boulder again, a sudden change occurred on the field.

Within a few feet of the Monkey King, several dazzling golden rays of light suddenly erupted, and the places where these rays of light erupted were exactly where the objects thrown by Jiang Chen just fell.
