Chapter 22 The Monkey's Treasure
"Let's go!" Qin Feng pulled Jiang Ziyue up and decided not to bother with this treasure monkey any more.
"Go? This is a treasure monkey. Why don't you catch it now that you have met it?" Jiang Ziyue couldn't help complaining.
Qin Feng rolled his eyes: "You don't want to die, but there are still two warriors at the peak of the giant strength realm looking for us. Is it worth losing your life for a treasure monkey?"
"But...but...it's rare to see a treasure monkey, are you willing to let it slip away in front of you?" Jiang Ziyue snorted.
"The treasures of heaven and earth are for those who are destined to get them. If this treasure monkey is destined to me, he will come up by himself. If it's not destined, even if I catch him, he will just explode." Qin Feng said lightly.
Jiang Ziyue was speechless. Such words were said by a 17 or 18-year-old kid. Even those martial arts masters who have lived for a hundred years may not be as open-minded as him.
"To put it bluntly, you are afraid of death!" Jiang Ziyue said unhappily.
Qin Feng did not answer, which was actually one of the reasons, but Qin Feng did not take this treasure monkey too seriously.
The role of the treasure monkey is to search for all kinds of natural treasures, and for Qin Feng, as long as he refines some elixirs, there will be warriors holding natural treasures and begging him to take them.
"Squeak!" The treasure monkey was anxious when he saw Qin Feng turning around and walking away, and threw a fruit in his hand at Qin Feng.
But Qin Feng did not even turn his head and easily avoided the fruit. Although he could not catch up with the treasure monkey, his "Mysterious Shadow Step" was not vegetarian.
This treasure monkey seemed to have identified Qin Feng. No matter how Qin Feng and Jiang Ziyue moved around, this treasure monkey followed Qin Feng tightly.
Qin Feng frowned slightly. He learned from Jiang Ziyue that treasure monkeys are cautious by nature and do not like humans. They usually flee madly when they meet humans, but this treasure monkey's performance is completely different.
Qin Feng stopped and looked at the monkey: "You are following me because you need my help?"
"Squeak!" The monkey was so anxious that he scratched his head, but Qin Feng did not understand monkey language, so he naturally did not understand what the monkey was saying.
"You want something from me?" Qin Feng asked again.
"Squeak!" The monkey nodded with bright eyes and pointed at his nose.
Pointing at his nose, it must be because he smelled the smell on his body. What kind of smell could there be on his body? Apart from the smell left when refining the elixir, it was probably the smell of mutton.
"If you want something from me, you have to give me something in exchange, right?" Qin Feng smiled slightly.
The monkey nodded and motioned Qin Feng to follow him, and his nimble body shuttled between the treetops.
"Follow me!" Qin Feng motioned Jiang Ziyue to lie on his back. The monkey was very fast, and Jiang Ziyue might not be able to keep up with it in his current state.
Jiang Ziyue rolled her eyes at Qin Feng and lay on his back with a red face.
Qin Feng lifted his hands and landed on Jiang Ziyue's thighs. With his legs exerting force, Qin Feng jumped up and followed the monkey.
Jiang Ziyue bit her lip. This brat must have done it on purpose!
After passing through the dense forest, the view suddenly became clear. The monkey jumped up and grabbed a vine to cross a mountain stream that was more than ten feet long.
Qin Feng glanced at the mountain stream. It was so deep that he could not see the bottom. If he fell down, he would probably turn into a pool of meat paste.
"Squeak!" The monkey on the opposite side urged Qin Feng to go over quickly.
"Don't go over!" Jiang Ziyue's face was pale. This was too dangerous.
Qin Feng smiled and jumped up to grab the vine. He swung and suddenly let go halfway through the swing.
"Ah!" Jiang Ziyue couldn't help but exclaimed.
But Qin Feng stepped on his left foot with his right foot, and his body actually rose a little higher in the air. He turned over and landed steadily on the edge of the cliff.
Jiang Ziyue's face was pale and horrified: "You're crazy!"
"Hehe, is it stimulating?" Qin Feng asked.
"Did you do it on purpose? You're simply crazy!" Jiang Ziyue couldn't help but jump up.
"Squeak, squeak!" Baohou was impatient and began to urge.
Baohou happily pulled apart the grass, and a cave about half a person's height appeared in front of them.
Qin Feng estimated that this cave could barely allow them to go together, but what was the Baohou planning to do by bringing them here?
This place was also extremely secretive, better than the waterfall they had stayed in before. If they could hide here for a few days, it would be pretty good.
Baohou twisted his red butt and got in, and turned around and waved to Qin Feng and the others.
Qin Feng lowered his body and followed Baohou, and Jiang Ziyue followed behind Qin Feng.
This passage is very long. It doesn't matter to Baohou because he is small, but Qin Feng and Jiang Ziyue have to walk with their backs bent. When they reach the exit, they can't even straighten their backs.
"Wow, so many spiritual medicines!" Jiang Ziyue jumped up like a little girl.
The spiritual medicines each exuded an alluring fragrance. Hundreds of spiritual medicines actually grew in this cave. There was even a layer of colorful mist at the top of the cave. This was the spiritual mist condensed by spiritual energy. Taking a sip made the whole body feel comfortable.
"This treasure monkey is really smart. He even knows how to plant spiritual medicines!" Qin Feng couldn't help but exclaimed.
Although the treasure monkey had shown a high enough intelligence before, when he saw the medicine garden run by the treasure monkey, he found that he still underestimated the wisdom of this treasure monkey.
"Second-grade lower-level spiritual medicine blood jade ginseng, second-grade lower-level spiritual medicine red heart fruit, and this, third-grade lower-level spiritual medicine dragon saliva fruit, my God, this treasure monkey couldn't have brought all the spiritual medicines in the entire Tianduan Mountains?" Even Jiang Ziyue couldn't help but exclaimed.
Qin Feng's mouth twitched. A first-grade lower-level spiritual medicine costs hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, a first-grade mid-level one costs at least four or five hundred thousand taels of silver, a first-grade high-level spiritual medicine costs at least eight or nine hundred thousand taels of silver, and a second-grade spiritual medicine costs millions of taels of silver!
As for the third-grade spiritual medicine, it is only a legendary existence for the warriors of Tianshui City. Even in the entire Tiannan Empire, third-grade spiritual medicines are rare, and every appearance will cause a great sensation.
Qianjin Pavilion has held several auctions in the Tiannan Empire. One of the finale treasures was a third-grade lower-level spiritual medicine, which shocked all parties. In the end, it was purchased by the Tiannan Empire at a sky-high price of one million taels of gold.
It is gold, not silver. One tael of gold can be exchanged for one hundred taels of silver. One million taels of gold is one hundred million taels of silver, that is, one hundred million taels of silver!
What is the concept of one hundred million taels of silver? Even if all the industries of the Qin family and the Shen family were tied together and sold, they could not sell so much.
Moreover, the dragon's bergamot fruit is just one of many third-grade spiritual medicines. It is hard to imagine that a treasure monkey can find so many spiritual medicines.
"The treasure monkey will not fall without a treasure, the legend is true!" Jiang Ziyue looked at the treasure monkey happily. Apart from anything else, even if he just took these spiritual medicines out, it would be a huge fortune, a fortune that even Qianjin Pavilion could not ignore.
"Squeak!" The treasure monkey pulled out a hundred-year-old red blood ginseng and put it in Qin Feng's hand.
"Would you like to exchange this with me? What do you want to exchange?" Qin Feng flipped his palm, and a bottle of bone strengthening pills and a box of black jade body-building cream were placed on the ground.
The treasure monkey's eyes lit up, and he picked up a bottle of bone strengthening pills without hesitation, uncorked the bottle impatiently, poured out a bone strengthening pill and threw it into his mouth, and began to chew it.
Jiang Ziyue curled her lips: "How dare you cheat a beast?"
Qin Feng put the red blood ginseng into the storage bracelet: "How can we say it's a lie if we both agree to it? Look, he's having a good time eating it. We're both taking what we need!"
"The most valuable part of your bottle of bone strengthening pills is the bones of the monster. A bottle of bone strengthening pills is only a hundred taels of silver, but a red blood ginseng is more than 100,000 taels of silver!" Jiang Ziyue snorted.
"You can also exchange it with him if you have it?" Qin Feng smiled.
"You... are amazing because you know how to make pills!" Jiang Ziyue said angrily.
Qin Feng nodded: "Really amazing!"
Qin Feng took a look at the spiritual medicines in this cave. It was a waste for one monkey to occupy so many spiritual medicines. Since this monkey liked bone strengthening pills, he would use bone strengthening pills to exchange for more spiritual medicines.
"Burp!" The treasure monkey burped, and the whole bottle of bone strengthening pills went into his stomach.
The treasure monkey opened a tree stump like offering a treasure, and suddenly a strange wine aroma spread out. Qin Feng and Jiang Ziyue were both shocked. In this tree stump, there was actually amber wine.
Qin Feng sniffed it. There were at least hundreds of spiritual medicines mixed in this wine aroma. Even from Qin Feng's point of view, this kind of wine was considered good.
The wine in the tree stump was viscous. After a long period of fermentation, the wine became wine paste, and the mellowness was further improved.
"Monkey wine, a lot of monkey wine!" Jiang Ziyue's eyes lit up.
This is monkey wine, a place where monkeys gather. Monkeys will collect wild fruits to brew fine wine. The wine brewed is extremely mellow and better than countless fine wines in the world.
But those are just monkey wine brewed by ordinary monkeys using ordinary wild fruits, while the tree stump in front of him is monkey wine brewed by the treasure monkey using countless spiritual medicines. It is completely incomparable.
"I've only drunk the Monkey Brewed by Baohou once, and the taste is so good..." Jiang Ziyue licked her lips.
Qin Feng glanced at Jiang Ziyue: "It seems that your family is quite powerful, and you hold a high position in Qianjin Pavilion?"
"You are still a little naive to try to trick me, little brother!" Jiang Ziyue chuckled.
"Little guy, follow me in the future. After you follow me, you can have as much of this kind of elixir as you want." Qin Feng shook the elixir bottle in his hand.
Jiang Ziyue looked at Qin Feng in disbelief. Wasn't this kid just arrogant and didn't take Baohou seriously? How did he suddenly change his style and become a shameless person who tempted Baohou with elixir?
Baohou looked at the Monkey Brewed behind him hesitantly, and then looked at the elixir in Qin Feng's hand, unable to choose between the two.
Qin Feng chuckled: "This kind of elixir is just the most common one. There will be more and better elixirs in the future. Don't you want to give it a try?"
