Chapter 139 - Training To Make Way (2/2)

The three of them did not move, mainly because they did not know how to eat the eggs. The Tree-Man was too big-mouthed and could not taste anything. Xiao Bin, on the other hand, was not used to raw food. The old monkey demonstrated before the three of them. It picked up one egg and threw it into its mouth to chew it.

It ate the egg directly.

Wei Huo was curious. “You raised the birds and made them lay eggs?”

What else is different about you other than your appearance?

The old monkey nodded. “That’s right. A few hundred years ago, a group of Gugu birds came to Monkey Mountain. I was not an Epic-ranked being at the time. We planned to kill them all and steal all their eggs. However, a monkey appeared among us. It said that not only could we not kill them, but we instead had to protect them. Every time we eat eggs, we have to leave one.”

Xiao Bin was shocked. He finally understood. Was this how the monkeys had been born?

At that moment, a group of monkeys came to the square with bronze drums. The bronze drums were about the same size as an Old Godmother1 glass jar. They were made of bronze and they were covered in pig skin. When one used a wooden stick, they would sound like drums when they were used.

Even Wei Huo and the Tree-Man were shocked.

The Tree-Man asked in shock, “Is this a legendary musical instrument?”

A few monkeys ran away from the group. Accompanied by the drums, they started flipping and jumping. It seemed like they could not keep up with the rhythm, but there were rules they had to follow.

“How terrifying!” Xiao Bin frowned deeply.

“Interesting!” The Tree-Man was very happy.

“That’s right,” Wei Huo said calmly.

After the three of them finished their conversation, Wei Huo said that he wanted to visit the mountain village. The old monkey welcomed him eagerly. The Tree-Man walked to the gate of the mountain. He was not interested in looking around. He was thinking about musical instruments, songs, and dancing alone.

Wei Huo and Xiao Bin started looking around the mountain village. Xiao Bin said softly, “These monkeys are really scary. They are almost no different from humans. If they were given a few hundred years, would they run around in spaceships? Fortunately, they are all friendly.”

“Friendly?” Wei Huo stopped in his tracks and said, “If it were not for me and the Tree-Man, you would have met the monkeys alone. What do you think would have happened then?”

Xiao Bin was stunned.

Wei Huo said, “Let me ask you another question. If you were an Epic-ranked expert and the old Monkey King of the monkey group died, what would you do?”

Xiao Bin suddenly fell silent.

Wei Huo said, “Why did the old monkey say that he cannot leave the monkey group until a second Epic-ranked monkey is born? That’s because if it leaves, the monkey group will be exterminated today!”

Xiao Bin thought about it for a long time before saying, “I understand. There is no good or evil in this world. There are only weak and strong creatures. All the living creatures and humans we have encountered have been very kind to us. That is because you are strong enough, Big Brother Wei.”

He had trained his body to become stronger so that others would reason with him calmly.
