Chapter 393: Reappearance of Cheng Huang
But when he was about to land on the horse's back, Qisheng lightly leaped forward and jumped two meters ahead. Chu Xiaomu was unable to stop in time and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, he had a strong force and reacted quickly. He kicked out with his left foot and stood firmly on the ground.
Even so, it was still very embarrassing in front of the white-haired old ape and the leopard maniac.
Leopard Dianzi laughed heartily, holding his belly, and said, "You kid said that you are the original owner of Cheng Huang, but that's just nonsense, it's just bragging, nonsense... nonsense! Look, look, Cheng Huang won't let you ride on it at all."
Chu Xiaomu didn't know why Qisheng, who was so obedient, didn't let him get on his horse, so he called him over and said, "Qisheng, don't make a fuss. We are going to the West Beast Mountain, and I can't go without you."
As he spoke, he was about to straddle its back. Qisheng saw his right foot move slightly, and knew what he was going to do. He whinnied twice and dodged to the side.
Chu Xiaomu didn't understand why it was being so petty today.
The white-haired old ape said, "Cheng Huang is a Yuanxu spirit. If your spirit is much weaker than it, it will be absorbed by its spiritual power, which will be harmful to both of you over time. I guess this is why he doesn't want you to ride it."
Chu Xiaomu had heard the Beast Spirit Ancestor talk about the Yuanxu Spirit Body and the Pure Spirit Body, but he didn't understand them at all. He didn't know what the white-haired old ape meant, but he understood the words "it will do great harm to both of you". So he asked, "Old Spirit Doctor, why was I devoured by Qi Sheng's spiritual power?"
The white-haired old ape walked slowly towards the wooden house, saying as he walked: "I'm not too sure either. Next time you see the ancestor, you can ask him."
Chu Xiaomu looked at Leopard Dianzi again.
Leopard Dianzi spread his hands and said, "I only know that you can't just ride a yellow horse casually. If you want to know why..." His eyes rolled, and he continued, "Unless... unless you tell me that I won the competition with that stupid bear."
Chu Xiaomu knew from his expression that he didn't know either, and laughed inwardly, "What a lunatic you are, you actually know how to use tricks."
He asked, "Didn't Qisheng bring me up to Bu Jian Peak? How come I could ride it then?"
Leopard Dianzi leaped onto a two-meter-high branch, turned his back to Chu Xiaomu, and said, "These vexing questions are the most vexing, so don't ask me." His right hand kept swinging backwards.
The white-haired old ape said in the wooden house: "I think it was because he was anxious to save your life, and Cheng Huang had no other way. However, your spiritual body was seriously damaged, and even my king could not treat it. It was probably also closely related to the fact that you rode on Cheng Huang. Therefore, Cheng Huang found spiritual fruits for you to eat from time to time, hoping to heal the damage to your spiritual body, but unfortunately they were not effective."
As soon as these words were spoken, Chu Xiaomu and Bao Dianzi jumped up almost at the same time.
One of them was very surprised and asked, "What? Qisheng gave me spiritual fruit to eat?"
One of them was surprised and envious, and shouted: "What, Cheng Huang gave him spiritual fruit to eat?!"
The white-haired old ape snorted twice and said, "It's not just spiritual fruits. Almost half of the three dews and seven fruits in the Beast Mountain have been eaten by this kid!" His tone sounded extremely dissatisfied, but he was helpless.
Leopard Dianzi asked: "I only know about Wood Spirit Fruit, Earth Spirit Fruit, and Lightning Spirit Fruit... How come I have never heard of the Three Dews and Seven Fruits?"
The white-haired old ape stopped talking. He must have sat down against the wall and closed his eyes.
Leopard Dianzi asked again, but the old ape still didn't answer. He was furious and jumped down from the tree, wanting to beat him up, but he remembered that he had promised Chu Xiaomu not to fight with this old spiritual doctor, so he had to hold back.
But he was crazy, and at this time his brain was really uncomfortable, so he hugged a big tree and started to gnaw wildly. After more than ten bites, there was a crackling sound, and a big tree as thick as a bowl was gnawed off by him and fell to the ground.
Chu Xiaomu knew that the white-haired old ape would not speak again, so he stopped asking.
He thought that if he walked on his own, it would take him a long time to get to the West Beast Mountain. He might die before he even saw the Queen Mother. Now he had no choice but to ride on Qisheng. He didn't care if his spirit was damaged. He could just practice spiritual power with the Queen Mother and heal it.
He made up his mind and called Qisheng over again, saying in a gentle tone: "Qisheng, we are going to West Beast Mountain. The journey is too long..." He did not use the Force and mounted the horse as he spoke.
However, Qisheng ignored all this and escaped with a light leap.
Chu Xiaomu lost his balance and fell to the ground. With a bang, something fell out of the bag on his back.
When he turned his head, he saw that it was the black and yellow horse-head face guard that Huang Jieshi had given him, saying that he would return it to Qisheng.
Chu Xiaomu's heart moved, he picked up the face guard, walked to Qisheng's side and said, "Qisheng, this thing is your last life's belongings, Huang Jieshi asked me to return it to you, I forgot about it."
"Actually, I was planning to give it to you at that time, but you were too young to wear it, so I delayed it. Now that you have grown up, it should be just right for you to wear."
Qisheng stood motionless, looking at the face protector in Chu Xiaomu's hand, and a strange light began to appear in his eyes.
Chu Xiaomu slowly brought the face guard closer to its head. This dead object seemed to come alive, with a faint golden glow on the inner lining. The closer he got, the brighter the light became.
Chu Xiaomu was very surprised and took back the faceguard to examine it carefully. The outer part was made of a piece of gold and iron that was half a finger thick and black and yellow in color. It was hard to tell what it was made of. He turned it over and saw that the inner lining was a layer of leather, still the inconspicuous black and yellow color, but the color was slightly lighter than the outer layer of gold and iron, and there was nothing special about it.
Qisheng kept whinnying and kicking his four hooves, seeming a little excited.
Chu Xiaomu smiled and said, "Don't be anxious. These are your things. I won't be greedy for them." After saying that, he placed the face guard on Qisheng's head.
The peak was out of sight, and suddenly the light became brighter...
When the light faded, Qisheng's whole body was completely renewed. He was seen with a precious saddle and green bridle, golden stirrups and black hooves. When he raised his head, his momentum surpassed the mountains, and when he moved his hooves, his majestic posture penetrated the sky. He was indeed an unparalleled divine horse.
Chu Xiaomu couldn't believe such a strange thing happened. His eyes widened and his mouth opened wide.
Leopard Dianzi jumped over to take a look and said with a chuckle, "This fellow is indeed Cheng Huang. Although his appearance and fur color are very different from four or five hundred years ago, his clothes are exactly the same." After saying that, he was about to reach out to touch him, but his hand stopped abruptly halfway, as if he did not dare to touch him.
The white-haired old ape also walked out of the wooden house at this time, prostrated himself towards Chu Xiaomu and Qisheng, and shouted: "A divine horse has appeared, an extraordinary person has been born..." His voice trembled, and it was unclear whether he was excited or what.
