Chapter 138: Two Tigers
The Tree-Man kept singing along the way. However, after singing the song a few times, it suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. It asked, “Are there any other songs?”
Even after spending so much time with him, Xiao Bin could barely understand the language of the Tree-Man. He was stunned for a moment before he thought about it. In the end, he sang a song that fit the situation. “I once crossed mountains and seas and passed through crowds of people…”
The giant tree was shocked. “This song is even better. Although I don’t understand it, I can picture the scene described by the lyrics. It’s a picture of humans farming, right?”
Xiao Bin was confused.
The Tree-Man suddenly became interested in the song. He kept asking Xiao Bin about it, and Xiao Bin felt flattered. He had never had a conversation with the Tree-Man, and he had not expected him to take the initiative to communicate with him.
He was communicating by using songs…
“You’re my little apple!”
After Xiao Bin finished singing, the Tree-Man came to a realization. “This is a cheerful song. It should be describing humans waking up early in the morning to wash their faces and brush their teeth.”
Xiao Bin kept singing. “I’m eating fried chicken on the square…”
The Tree-Man was deep in thought. “This song expresses the gratitude humans feel for food.”
Xiao Bin was speechless.
Whatever you say, Old Tree.
The Tree-Man understood some parts of the human language, but he still only understood half of it. After hearing a few sentences, he naturally interpreted the words differently.
When Xiao Bin finished singing, the Tree-Man sighed. “Humans are indeed a magical race!”
Xiao Bin was confused. He thought that the Tree-Man was praising humans for being able to sing and dance. He thus replied, “I’m an amateur. I don’t know how to dance.”
However, the Tree-Man thought that Xiao Bin was praising him for learning quickly. He therefore replied, “You’ve taught me well.”
Xiao Bin was confused.
Wei Huo watched the two of them converse. They were getting further away from each other with each second. They were talking nonsense.
However, the Tree-Man suddenly stopped talking and started singing. “Sha! Sha! Sha! Hu la…”
Wei Huo was confused. What are you doing? Are you singing? Where’s the translation system? Translate for me!
Xiao Bin asked Wei Huo softly, “Big Brother Wei, what is he singing?”
Wei Huo was speechless.
The translation system was stumped…
Soon, the Tree-Man finished his song and asked, “How was it? This is a song I created.”
Wei Huo started clapping. “It’s very nice. The meaning of the lyrics is profound, and the song is beautiful. If you were a human, you would definitely become the most outstanding singer!”
The Tree-Man was confused. “Really?”
Xiao Bin looked at Wei Huo in admiration. “Big Brother Wei, it seems like you’re quite accomplished at writing lyrics. Why don’t you sing a song too?”
Wei Huo was speechless.
How did I become accomplished at writing lyrics?
Wei Huo thought about it and then sang. “Two tigers… Two tigers…”
Xiao Bin was speechless.
The Tree-Man was shocked. “This is a cruel scene of two ferocious tigers running and fighting. Even their tails and ears have been bitten off. However, the two tigers have not stopped fighting. They’ve shown their determination to fight to their death!”
Wei Huo was speechless.
Xiao Bin asked, “What did the Senior Tree say?”
Wei Huo replied, “He said that the song is good but unsuitable for children.”
Xiao Bin was confused. “Why? Isn’t this a children’s song?”
The giant tree was still singing. It was very interested in new things such as songs, but it suddenly stopped.
Xiao Bin seemed like he wanted to continue singing, but Wei Huo patted his shoulder. “Something is coming. Be careful.”
Xiao Bin immediately shut his mouth and focused.
At that moment, rustling sounds were heard from the woods around them. Animals were surrounding them in groups. Soon, a few monkeys half the height of the average human appeared on the branches of a few trees on one side. These monkeys were wearing animal skins, straw hats, hunting bows, and hunting knives as they stared at Wei Huo and his group.
Soon, more than 10 wild boars ran out of the forest. They were all over two meters tall, and their teeth were sharp and long. On each boar’s back sat a monkey knight wearing rattan armor and holding a lance.
Xiao Bin was a little surprised. “What’s going on with these monkeys? Who taught them to ride wild boars and use weapons?”
Wei Huo was speechless.
It was probably me…
The monkeys surrounded them. A few knight monkeys and some Rare-ranked creatures were watching Wei Huo and the others, especially the Tree-Man.
The Tree-Man said, “Epic-ranked monkeys, what are you stopping us for?”
At that moment, a monkey knight led a wild boar to the side and made way for them. An extremely old monkey walked out of the group of monkeys. It looked very short, as it had a hunched back and a long beard. Its beard and eyebrows were all white. It was not holding any weapons. It only had a crutch, a gourd at its waist, and a straw hat on its back.
Wei Huo read its description on the Information Feed.
Monkey King, Epic-ranked, Male, 356 years old.
It walked over slowly. “What are these two Epic-ranked people doing here?”
Wei Huo said calmly, “We’re just passing by. Are you trying to make us your enemy?”
The old monkey observed Wei Huo closely. It could not see through him, but its intuition told it that Wei Huo was very strong and could not be provoked.
Therefore, it said, “Visitors have come from afar. How could the Monkey Mountain not host a banquet? I would like to ask the two of you to show me your true selves. If you tell me all your experiences, I will be even more grateful!”
The old monkey used the imposing field as it spoke. The imposing field did not exert much pressure, but it carried information. Wei Huo and the Tree-Man could withstand the imposing field. Although Xiao Bin could not understand what the old monkey was saying, he could feel the old monkey’s kindness.
Xiao Bin and the Tree-Man stopped talking. Wei Huo thought about it for a moment, as he was the one in charge of the caravan. He said, “Alright, we’ll be disturbing you then!”
Meanwhile, Wei Huo thought to himself, Why do these monkeys sound so traditional?
The monkeys put away their weapons. The old monkey smiled and turned around to lead the way. It took a step and crossed over 10 meters. Wei Huo put the rhinoceros and Wei Sha into the Divine Pet Space and grabbed Xiao Bin’s shoulder before following the monkey.
Xiao Bin felt a strong gust of wind hit his face as he retreated rapidly.
The old monkey led the way while Wei Huo and the Tree-Man followed closely. A monkey archer jumped between the branches while a monkey knight followed them on his boar.
Soon, they arrived in front of a stockade. A stone tablet had been erected at the entrance of the stockade, and three words were written on it. Wei Huo and the others did not recognize the three words. They must have been written by the monkeys.
The old monkey stopped in its tracks and let out a few coughs. The female monkeys and the other monkeys in the village ran out. They were all wearing clothes made of beast fur, shoes, and hats and holding hoes, spatulas, firewood knives, and bamboo cages.
If one did not take a closer look, one would think that they were short and skinny people who were underdeveloped.
