Chapter 242: Monkey Form Opportunity It was better inside the house, as we were able to block out most of the gazes, but the crowd watching outside became even more outrageous. Some were taking photos, some were checking in, even Yang Ling was annoyed. The information about Duruo's homestay is public on the Internet, which has led to many people contacting her through the Internet. If it was a formal inquiry, Yang Ling would not be bothered, but too many people sent useless messages. This results in some people who really need to book a room online being unable to respond in a timely manner, which greatly increases the workload. Du Ruo simply asked her to close the online channel. Although Yang Ling had to stay at the front desk longer, it was not so bad as she didn't have to reply to online messages. The two stayed in the house for the whole afternoon. They turned off their cell phones, which reduced a lot of annoying messages. Du Ruo was still studying ancient books. Now Xiang Yuanyuan's practice of Hunyuan Yi Qigong has improved gradually, and she has also done a good job in regulating her body's "essence, energy and spirit". Now she can quickly get started and make progress in practicing other mental methods. As for Yuanyuan, she is already researching where to go for fun. When it was night, Du Ruo listened carefully and found that there were not many people staying outside. He simply hugged Xiang Yuanyuan and ran out of the village.
"Dong Dong Dong!!" In just a few minutes, the two returned to their hometown. Du Ruo saw that the door was closed and there was only a dim light in the living room, but he could hear his parents talking in a low voice and the sound from the TV, so he simply started knocking on the door. "Here I come~ Yuanyuan, why are you back?!" My mother opened the door in her pajamas and was immediately happy when she saw Du Ruo and Yuan Yuan. "Mom, don't you guys watch TV at home without turning on the lights? Really, no wonder you said your eyesight is getting worse and worse. It would be strange if your eyesight didn't get worse. Mom, let's come back and stay for a few days. Don't tell anyone." Du Ruo started complaining as soon as she entered the door. Now they no longer had to take care of Yaya, and the old couple were very idle at home. However, they could not change their frugal habits and were reluctant to turn on the lights while watching TV. "Hello Auntie." Xiang Yuanyuan greeted with a smile. "Okay, okay, why are you back to live here? You're not allowed to talk, are you in debt? Come in quickly." My mother is the kind of person who likes to think too much. She was very happy to see Xiang Yuanyuan at first, but when she thought about Du Ruo's expenses during this period and the fact that he came back so late at night, she immediately thought: he was in debt and ran away overnight. The father in the living room also heard the noise and quickly turned on the living room light. The bright light even made both of them squint their eyes. "Mom, don't think about it. I've made too much money these days, and now people are everywhere asking me to borrow money, so I have to hide." Du Ruo was speechless, so he explained it in the simplest way. If he told his mother about being famous or an internet celebrity, he might have to explain it later, but it would be simple and clear to say that he made a lot of money and others came to borrow money from him. My mother didn't say anything, but looked at Xiang Yuanyuan. "Yeah, that's it." Xiang Yuanyuan nodded with a smile. "That's good. Don't worry, Mom won't tell anyone." My mother was immediately relieved, nodded, and even lowered her voice. ……
I went to bed early at night, and my mother cleared out a room for Xiang Yuanyuan overnight. In my parents' opinion, since the two are not married, Xiang Yuanyuan is just a guest. Even if they should sleep in the same room outside, they have to sleep separately at home. This is a respect for Xiang Yuanyuan. Du Ruo and Xiang Yuanyuan had nothing to say about this. The next morning, Du Ruo got up very early. Seeing that his parents were not awake yet, Du Ruo took Xiang Yuanyuan and ran towards the mountain. The wounds on Du Ruo's body have basically healed and no longer need bandages, but they still look a little ugly. Plus, staying at home was somewhat boring, otherwise Xiang Yuanyuan would not have agreed to go up the mountain with Du Ruo. This time going up the mountain was a little different. In the past, he went up from Yangjia Village. Since Du Ruo often went there, he was familiar with the road and even thorns rarely appeared in the road. But the location of climbing the mountain was a little different this time. The two went up directly from the small road on the side of Dujia Village. The road on the Dujia Village side is a bit deserted. After all, the villagers in their village are relatively old. The old ones no longer have the energy to go up the mountain, and the young ones only come back for the New Year or other holidays, so they will not take the small road up the mountain. So this time Du Ruo brought the Miao Dao with him when he went out. Du Ruo led the way in front, while Xiang Yuanyuan followed behind. Because they had experience of going to Fairy Lake in Yongzhou, and the two places were completely different, there were only more thorns on the ground on Huangshan side, so it was not a problem at all. "Wow, kiwi." Xiang Yuanyuan followed behind Du Ruo, looking around curiously all the time. She would basically eat anything edible. Suddenly, she saw a lot of kiwis growing on a vine in front of her, so she quickly grabbed Du Ruo's clothes and shouted loudly. "I'll pick one for you to try first. If it tastes good, I'll pick more when we go back." As soon as Du Ruo saw Xiang Yuanyuan's expression, he immediately knew what she was thinking. As Du Ruo spoke, he flicked his hand and the dragon tail of the Panlong Silk stretched out. Du Ruo is now more and more adept at controlling the Panlong Silk. The dragon's tail flies out with the wire, cutting off an entire branch bearing fruit not far away, and then wrapping itself around the broken branch. The Panlong silk was retracted again, and the three kiwis with branches and leaves fell into Du Ruo's hands. "Here, try it first." Du Ruo picked the softest one and gave it to Xiang Yuanyuan. Planted kiwifruits are usually picked when they are hard for transportation, but wild ones are not considered that way. However, overripe ones will usually be eaten by birds, so the ones Du Ruo picked will taste the sweetest if left for a day. "Wow~ sour and sweet, delicious!! Try it." Xiang Yuanyuan broke the fruit open and squeezed out the flesh. After taking a bite, her eyes narrowed up because of the sourness. Then she handed the other half to Du Ruo's mouth. Du Ruoke was not so particular. He took a bite and ate the half fruit directly into his mouth, including the skin and flesh. The peel has a bit of astringency, but it is quickly covered up by the sourness. It is indeed sour and sweet, but the sourness is more obvious, and the taste of the fruit is also stronger. "You can eat these later. I'll help you kick them." Du Ruo didn't let Xiang Yuanyuan eat more. He put the two fruits in his pocket and continued on his way. In late autumn, there are still many wild fruits on the mountain, so it won’t be boring even if you walk slowly. Fortunately, the only part with the most thorns is the part when you go up the mountain, and it's easy to walk after that. There are relatively more big trees on this side of the mountain, so there are more small animals.
What he saw the most were various birds and squirrels. Xiang Yuanyuan looked around with his eyes sparkling. If he hadn't been worried that talking would scare the animals away, he would have started shouting. “Slurp~~” The two walked for quite a while. When they were about to walk out of the woods and head towards the boulder where the clouded leopard family lived, they heard a burst of monkey calls. "Honey, are those the same macaques we saw last time?" Xiang Yuanyuan stood on tiptoe, trying to see more clearly, but there was a group of monkeys in front of her, and every one of them looked alike, so she asked Du Ruo. "Just try and you will find out." Du Ruo took out two fruits from his pocket and then walked forward slowly. The monkeys were very alert, and Du Ruo did not try to hide himself, so he was discovered at a distance of more than ten meters. “Gah!!!!” The monkey's cry became sharp, which was a warning to the monkey group. Upon hearing the sound, the mother monkey immediately protected the little monkey and looked at the two people curiously. Seeing this, Du Ruo pulled Xiang Yuanyuan down and squatted down, and at the same time stretched out his hand and showed the kiwi fruit. They squatted down to lower their guard. The two of them were still too tall compared to the monkey, and standing would have made them feel very oppressive. "Squeak~~" Not long after the two men squatted down, a monkey jumped down from the tree, shouted, and then ran towards them. "This is the one we encountered last time." Du Ruo smiled and explained to Xiang Yuanyuan. This short-tailed monkey has grown a lot, but you can still vaguely see its original appearance. The monkey also recognized Du Ruo and came in front of Du Ruo in a few jumps. The short-tailed monkey looked at Du Ruo, and then looked at the palm that Du Ruo stretched out. Just as Du Ruo was still thinking about the appearance of the short-tailed monkey when it ran over just now, the short-tailed monkey actually put its paw into its mouth, and then took out a kiwi fruit from its cheek pouch, with some saliva still on it, and put it in Du Ruo's hand. "Squeak..." The short-tailed monkey put the kiwi fruit in Du Ruo's hand, then pushed Du Ruo's hand away, then covered its head and squeaked twice. "..." This left Du Ruo speechless. He was originally still recalling the other party's posture when he ran towards him, but after this, he couldn't remember it at all. Didn't he just chase him and hit his head? Why did he still remember it? He even started to learn to pay tribute. "Hubby, did you always bully it in the past?" Xiang Yuanyuan was laughing secretly on the side. Seeing that Du Ruo seemed a little embarrassed, she didn't mind the saliva on the kiwi fruit. She took it from Du Ruo with a smile and put it into the arms of the short-tailed monkey. “Slurp~~” The short-tailed monkey grabbed the kiwi fruit, looked at Du Ruo, then jumped around Du Ruo twice, and then after a few jumps, began to return to the monkey group.
"Come on, let's follow and take a look." Seeing this, Du Ruo felt that this was an opportunity. He had quite a bit of experience with the monkey form among the twelve forms, but it just lacked some agility. Du Ruo felt that the opportunity to complete it was right in front of him, so he naturally didn't want to let it go. "Hey, let's chase~~" When Xiang Yuanyuan heard this, she quickly stood up, then leaned on the back of the squatting Du Ruo, waved her hand, and signaled Du Ruo to move forward. She was very familiar with this set of moves, and she knew very well that it was impossible for her to catch up on her own. This time, Du Ruo was not as aggressive as he was last time when he chased the short-tailed monkey, but instead he just kept hanging on for a while. After the short-tailed macaque returned to the monkey group, it called out twice and continued to move forward. It also stuffed the kiwi fruit in its hand into its cheek pouches, stuffing its cheeks until they were bulging. (End of this chapter)
