548. At the beginning of the spirit, the accumulated stone counts
Although Cheng Tianle knocked down the giant ape just now, he did not hurt it. His purpose was to capture it alive. In this place like a legend, it was impossible to conquer a familiar demon cultivator as a guide. The giant ape's body was sore and numb, but it was just a temporary breakdown like a fight between humans. It was fine to recover, but his arms were still a little sore. After all, he fought with Cheng Tianle and punched him twice.
Although he was locked in the transformation of magical powers and could not control the wind and snow, the powerful original power of the giant ape was still there. At this moment, he stood up and walked through the wind and snow to the heights. His tall figure was like a moving small snow mountain. Through the gentle slope meadow, he walked into the steep cliff covered with rocks, and turned several turns between the maze-like rocks. There were two stalagmitian-shaped rocks in front, like a natural barrier, and behind it was a cave.
The entrance to the cave is slightly narrow, about one meter wide and two meter high. But when you walk inside, there is a space of more than five meter deep, three or four meter wide. Here you can hide from the wind and it is the nest where the giant ape lives. Generally speaking, there is a very fishy smell, but the cave is very clean. I think this giant ape is not ordinary. After practicing to become a monster, it has got rid of the habits of some wild beasts, but it still looks like a wild beast.
There is a nest made of round pebbles deep in the cave, covered with light white hay and animal skins, which must be the place where the giant apes sleep. There is a complete yak horn hanging on the stone wall of the cave, which is very beautiful. Obviously, this beast that has already opened its wisdom has already possessed the most primitive and simple aesthetic taste and has begun to decorate its own cave.
There is a pile of ashes not far from the entrance of the cave. In order to prevent the wind from blowing the ashes away, another circle of stones was built. This is obviously the place where the giant apes make fire and roast food - it has actually mastered how to use fire!
Cheng Tianle found a stone in the cave and sat down to rest. He looked at the cave that was clean, simple, simple, and had a bit of primitive meaning. The giant ape that cleaned the cave was now dirty, with a lot of soil stained with reddish-brown hair and white hair all over his body. Because he had just been knocked over by Cheng Tianle, it was lying in the corner with fearful eyes looking at Cheng Tianle, looking pitiful.
Cheng Tianle was tired. He had been walking for two days and one night. If it were normal, this was nothing, but he was walking on the snow-capped plateau with thin air. Many places had to use their magic power to display the magical method, climbing up and down in the cliffs, and also developing their spiritual sense to explore the surrounding situation. In the morning, he passed through the crisis-ridden ice tower forest and had a battle in the storm.
With this good place to rest, Cheng Tianle didn't say much, sat upright there and closed his eyes to regurgate his breath. The giant ape did not dare to make a sound. The cave seemed very quiet, and only the strong wind outside the cave entrance was shouting.
When Cheng Tianle opened his eyes and recovered completely, it was already the second half of the night. Zi Hao was still quietly cultivating his spirit in his Quchi hole, and Sheng Long ran to the grass nest and fell asleep. Such a small golden-lined mouse occupied such a large grass nest, and he did not waste any waste. When Cheng Tianle opened his eyes, he immediately alarmed the giant ape and raised his head to look at him.
Cheng Tianle pointed to the pile of ashes at the entrance of the cave and asked, "How did you learn to use fire?"
The giant ape finally waited for the opportunity to speak, ran to the entrance of the cave and pointed outside and began to gesture. Sheng Long was awakened, and Zi Hao also spread his spiritual sense to watch it. Cheng Tianle walked to the entrance of the cave and looked outside. At this moment, the storm had stopped, and the world was quiet. The lake in the center of the basin in the distance was like a mirror, and there was a canopy-shaped cloud cover directly above.
From Cheng Tianle's perspective, the reflection on the lake is not the clouds directly above, but the outline of the snow-capped mountains and brilliant starry sky opposite the basin, as if there was another mysterious plateau world hanging down under the lake. The giant ape pointed to the stone beach beside the lake, then squatted down and drew a circle on the ground to make a fire, then turned around and pointed to the stone circle in the cave. She was still afraid that Cheng Tianle would not understand, so she picked up two stones and rubbed them hard, making a harsh sound to bring up a string of Mars.
Sheng Long guessed: "It means that when you see someone making a fire by the lake, you will learn it. The monster that has already opened its wisdom is indeed very smart."
Cheng Tianle suddenly blinked his fingers, and a magic power hit the stone held by the giant ape, not only bringing up a string of Mars, but also a faint spark. The giant ape was startled, then nodded repeatedly, and pointed to the lakeside in the distance.
Zi Hao guessed: "It should mean that the person you see by the lake is like Cheng Zong who makes fire. Then you should possess magical powers, maybe a monk who has arrived here."
Sheng Long: "Nonsense! Without magical powers, it is impossible to enter such a place. But who are those people? Is it Liu Yanghe?"
Cheng Tianle narrowed his eyes when he heard this. He came here in Daoyang five hundred years ago, but this giant ape could not have lived for 500 years. If someone had been here after it opened its spiritual intelligence, the biggest possibility was that Liu Yanghe, who also came to take the gold from falling thunder. Cheng Tianle asked again: "Did the person you saw come not long ago?"
There is the wonder of "entering the world with words". The giant ape can understand what Cheng Tianle means, which is the same thing as Cheng Tianle, but is a little confused about the concept of "not long ago". Although it has opened up its wisdom, has a simple understanding of the length of time, and also understands the changes of the four seasons in the mountains, it has no generalized understanding of the abstract concept of time.
Cheng Tianle changed his question: "Is it the past two years that you saw the person who made fire by the lake?" When talking about the word "year", the spiritual thoughts were accompanied by the artistic conception of the four seasons, and the giant ape finally understood it.
It wooly gestured for a long time, and Cheng Tianle also understood it. It turned out that someone came here last summer and had a bonfire by the lake. The giant ape was hiding in the distance and saw it. According to this time, the visitor might be Liu Yanghe. Cheng Tianle asked again: "Did that person bring an eagle?"
This sentence is very easy to understand, because there is an eagle flying in the artistic conception. The giant ape nodded again, spread his arms to make a funny flying movement, and then reached out and patted Cheng Tianle on the shoulder carefully. Judging from its meaning, it should be that it saw an eagle flying with the man and then landed on the man's shoulder.
After hearing its explanation, Cheng Tianle has confirmed that Liu Yanghe came here last summer, just a few months after Feishui attacked him. The conversation just now made the giant ape clear about the concept of time. Then Cheng Tianle took the idea of its numbers and asked again: "How many years have you been practicing to become a demon?"
The concept of demon may be difficult to understand, but Cheng Tianle's way of asking questions is precisely the easiest thing this giant ape understands, because some artistic conceptions are difficult to describe in words, but they can be expressed clearly with divine thoughts. When Cheng Tianle casts the spirit-binding seal, he has already investigated the state of its spiritual energy. In terms of cultivation, he should have passed the demon realm disaster and can condense the demon elixir to transform into shape.
But this giant ape has been enlightened by chance for a long period of time and has been enlightened by self-cultivation. No one has taught it these things. Until last summer, I have never seen a human being before, so I have not realized the method of turning into a human form to practice. However, its soul and energy have been integrated. As long as it is guided to practice according to the law, it can completely condense the so-called demon pill, and there are no obstacles in the realm of cultivation.
As for transforming into a human, it may take some effort. If it succeeds, its description will be related to the state of mind and longevity. If it does not encounter Cheng Tianle or similar experiences of knowledge, the path of cultivation will be much more difficult, and it may become a monster in the snow-capped mountains, but it is still a demon cultivator with magical powers. A long time ago, there were no people in many places, and many monsters existed, leaving behind various myths and legends.
Cheng Tianle described a state to the giant ape with his divine thoughts and asked him when he reached this state. The giant ape narrowed his eyes and thought, and then began to count. Although it did not understand what one, two, three, and four were, it could understand the difference in quantity in its spiritual wisdom.
Ten fingers were obviously not enough, and the giant ape seemed a little anxious. Later, he slapped his forehead and jumped outside the cave to pick up stones. Every time he picked up a stone and placed it in front of Cheng Tianle, he jumped back and forth for seventeen times, and picked up a total of seventeen stones. This means that it has reached the state described by Cheng Tianle and has broken through the demon realm disaster for seventeen years.
Cheng Tianle smiled. Obviously, the giant ape had understood what the concept of year is and knew that the length of each year was the same, so they specially picked stones of similar sizes. Cheng Tianle smiled and said, "You don't have to travel so many times. Just get seventeen small stones in at a time. Wouldn't that be easier?"
The giant ape was slightly stunned, then showed a sudden enlightenment, looking at Cheng Tianle's eyes full of admiration. The mountain demon cultivator who had opened his wisdom and even had passed the demon realm was very smart. With a little tip, he had already understood the abstract concepts of time and numbers. The reason why it was ignorant before was just because no one had taught him and had no place to learn in this isolated basin. Unlike Sheng Long, when he was a weasel, he had sneaked to the beams of a rural primary school to listen to the class.
Zi Hao was also very interested in watching it, and flew out of Cheng Tianle's sleeves and landed into a human form. This scared the giant ape. It had never seen such a scene before. It took a few steps back and hit the stone wall. Cheng Tianle waved his hand and said, "You don't have to be afraid, he is my junior brother, Zi Hao, and a spiritual practitioner."
