Chapter 312 - 192: Success_2
Qian Yixiu thought for a moment, then removed the Phoenix Eye Bodhi Beads from her wrist and wrapped them around Monkey Brother’s wrist several times. She said, "The master once said that snakes and insects are afraid of these beads. Put this string of beads on the flower, and if it can drive away the snake, that would be best. If it can’t drive it away, you must fight, but remember that safety comes first. Also, if possible, try not to harm the White Snake. Things complement each other; the presence of Serpent Vine Chrysanthemums attracts Spirit Snakes and vice versa, the presence of Spirit Snakes leads to the blooming of Serpent Vine Chrysanthemums..."
As the sun gradually moved westward, hanging above the western mountain peaks, Qian Yixiu had an early dinner with the House of Animals. She was so preoccupied that she couldn’t eat and kept urging Monkey Brother to eat more.
When the last glimmer of the sun was washed away by the dark mist and countless bright stars were lit in the firmament, Monkey Brother was ready to depart.
In fact, it would have been much better for Monkey Brother to go during the day when the light was much better. But Qian Yixiu had only seen the Serpent Vine Chrysanthemums at night and did not know what the place would be like during the day, or whether there would be other dangers. Thus, she had no choice but to send Monkey Brother at night.
During her time as a ghost, Qian Yixiu had scouted the road from Cave Sky Pool to that mountain peak many times and estimated that Monkey Brother could reach it in less than half an hour based on his speed.
It seemed that Monkey Sister also knew the great dangers awaiting Monkey Brother on his journey, as she started to whimper sadly. Seeing this, Monkey Brother comforted her with soft squeaks.
Good heavens, looking at the sappiness between this brother and sister pair, they really do resemble a couple.
Qian Yixiu, holding Monkey Sister with the House of Animals in tow, sent Monkey Brother to the foot of the mountain on the east side of Cave Sky Pool. From here, he would set off toward that mountain peak.
Qian Yixiu stopped and again said to Monkey Brother, "Be sure to stay safe on this journey. It would be great if you can pick the Serpent Vine Chrysanthemum, but if you can’t, we can always come back in five years."
Monkey Brother nodded, waved goodbye to her (them) like a warrior, then leaped up onto a tree, and with another jump, he clambered onto a large rock on the mountain, disappearing into the thick foliage in the blink of an eye.
