Chapter 374: Inviting the Ancestor (3)
The Beast King did not speak, and Chu Xiaomu continued, "Hehe... Beast King, you and the general are both Spirit Kings of the Cangmu Country. Although you are equally famous, I think you are far inferior to him!"
The beast spirits shouted, "Nonsense! How can our king be inferior to that Bi Ye? I think Bi Ye is far inferior to our king!"
The King of Beasts had a gloomy face and said, "How am I so much worse than him? Tell me the truth."
Chu Xiaomu said: "The general is thinking about the Cangmu Kingdom and the people of the world. The Humu Pass guarded by our Bicheng is the throat of the Cangmu Kingdom and is the most important. And you, the Beast King, not only let the people of Chisha Kingdom pass through Chuike Road at will, but also let them go around to the heart of our Bicheng from the Black Miasma Ancient Road! You have so many capable beast spirits under your command, can't you help the Cangmu Kingdom?!"
The King of Ten Thousand Beasts pondered for a while, finally sighed, and said: "What you said makes some sense, but there are many things that I can't do just because I want to. For example, the matter of the people of Chisha crossing Chuike Road was not because we beast spirits ignored it, but because we were unable to intervene due to other reasons. I think you have understood it just now. As for the Black Miasma Ancient Road, it was indeed our negligence..."
He turned to Jin Xiong and said, "Jin Xiong, you hold the command arrow and lead the three hundred spirit beasts to guard the checkpoints on the Black Miasma Ancient Road. No one is allowed to pass through this road without my consent."
Before the Golden Bear could agree, Leopard Crazy suddenly jumped onto the Beast King's throne and shouted, "Old man, the command arrow is mine now. If you want to send someone, you should send me!" He suddenly jumped in front of the Golden Bear, stretched out his right hand, and shouted, "Give me the command arrow!"
The golden bear raised his head and roared, saying, "Why should I give it to you? You haven't hit me before!"
Leopard Dianzi then jumped to Chu Xiaomu's side and said, "This kid is alive now and can talk. Ask him who won and who lost in our fight?"
The beast spirits saw that Leopard Dianzi was making a fuss and didn't know what had happened between the three of them. They became curious and wanted to know what had happened.
The King of Beasts also wanted to know whose spiritual skill was more powerful between the Golden Bear and the Leopard Crazy, so he did not stop them.
Chu Xiaomu angrily said to Leopard Dianzi: "You want to know whether you win or he wins, and if you want the command arrow from the Beast King, you should listen to me obediently from now on!"
Leopard Dianzi was about to lose his temper when he suddenly thought of the Beast King's Token that made him itch. His eyes rolled and he blurted out, "Just obey me, what's the big deal?!"
Chu Xiaomu pointed at his seat and said, "Now go back and sit down quietly and don't make a sound!"
Leopard Dianzi said, "Just sit down, it's no big deal," and walked back to his stone chair obediently and sat down, and indeed shut up and stopped talking.
All the beast spirits were stunned.
Chu Xiaomu then asked the King of All Beasts: "You can't interfere with Chui Ke Road, so why did you place vicious beast spirits on the road to prevent my Green City soldiers from going there to stand guard?"
The yellow bird interrupted and said, "That's absolutely impossible. Our East and West Beast Mountains have each retreated 20 miles with Chuike Road as the boundary. No beast spirit is allowed to pass through."
Chu Xiaomu asked, "What about the red-haired ape that injured me and killed my Bicheng soldiers?"
The King of All Beasts frowned and said, "We don't have a beast spirit called the Red-haired Ape in our Beast Mountain. Where did you see it?"
The other animal spirits also shook their heads and said that there have never been any red-haired apes, only white-haired apes and black-haired apes. Look, there is such a white-haired old ape in front of them. Not to mention hurting or killing people, it even has difficulty walking.
Chu Xiaomu was shocked, thinking, could it be that the spirit of Chisha Country pretended to be the spirit of Beast Mountain and blocked Chuike Road? It must be! A few months ago, the arm of the small battalion officer Wen Gang of Beikan Camp was broken by the other party, and a sergeant was killed. Such a cruel thing, except for the evil spirit of Chisha Country, there are probably few spirits in Beast Mountain who can do it.
So he said, "Can the Beast King send a few beast spirits to Chui Ke Road to investigate? This road may have been occupied by the people of Sand Country."
The King of All Beasts looked quite embarrassed and said, "Didn't the yellow bird just say that we must not approach Chuike Road? There is no need to mention this matter again."
The monkey-faced old woman shouted, "So this kid from Bicheng has come to my Beast Mountain for the second time. Tell me, what is your conspiracy in coming to Beast Mountain?" After a pause, she said in a stern voice, "Do you want to steal the spiritual fruits in my Beast Mountain?!"
The little monkey in her arms immediately imitated her voice and cried: "Spiritual fruit, eat spiritual fruit, I want to eat spiritual fruit..." He crawled around in the old woman's arms and began to search the old woman's dirty pockets. Finding nothing else, he tried to pry open her thick mouth. The monkey-faced old woman did not show any anger or impatience from beginning to end.
When the beast spirits heard her words, they immediately started to stir and asked loudly, "Do you want to steal the spiritual fruit? Do you want to steal the spiritual fruit?"
The King of Ten Thousand Beasts thought, "These spiritual fruits only grow once every few decades or hundreds of years, and they are very hidden. Even the spirit beasts in our Beast Mountain often don't see one in their entire lives. Naturally, they have a grudge against people who steal spiritual fruits. This kid ate one a few months ago. If it weren't for Shenma Chenghuang's face, I would have to extract his spirit body and share it with the spirit beasts to calm their anger." Then he thought again, "But I can't tell anyone that Shenma took him to eat spiritual fruits. If Sihu hadn't seen it with his own eyes, no one would believe that Shenma would help such an inconspicuous boy from Bicheng."
But Sihu said, "It was him. He ate a wood spirit fruit in our Weirui Ancient Forest a few months ago! Although the divine horse Chenghuang was there, he didn't have the permission of our king, so he ate it secretly! I was also forced to kill a vulture spirit from the Red Sand Country there. All the big and small things happening in the Beast Mountain right now are caused by this thief!"
Xiangli said hurriedly: "Chenghuang is a good friend of all of us. It doesn't count as stealing if we have it."
The monkey-faced old woman shouted, "Although Cheng Huang was everyone's good friend, he's already dead. Hum... maybe this kid killed him!"
Several beast spirits immediately started to make a loud noise. This must be the case. Cheng Huang was an immortal pure spirit. How could he suddenly die? It must have been you who killed him.
Xiang Li also looked at Chu Xiaomu, his eyes full of doubts. Shenma Pond did have the aura of Cheng Huang's remnant spirit, so he was probably really dead, but how he died was unknown to anyone except the boy in front of him. Could it be that he really killed him?
The King of Ten Thousand Beasts stared at Chu Xiaomu with a ferocious look and said, "Tell me how Cheng Huang died. I will know the truth as soon as I hear it. If it was really you who killed him or he died because of you, I will not forgive you in the Beast Mountain!"
