The Monkey King

At dinner time in the evening, there were three of us again.

Originally, the monkey had already promised to deliver the enchanted dishes to the mansion on the cliff, but Ao Cun was determined to follow him, so the dinner party for two people became three people.

Under the green light, the three people dining were silent. The monkey lowered his head and gnawed on the fruit as if he was preoccupied. Yang Chan kept staring at him, while Ao Cunxin's eyes kept wandering over the two of them, as if he wanted to see something. .

Halfway through the meal, the monkey raised his eyes and said to Yang Chan, "Yisu and Lu Liuguai are back."

This should be considered a very unusual move, because the monkey knew that Yang Chan did not speak when eating.

"How does that go?"

"It didn't go well." Monkey said lightly.

"Is it a complete rejection, or is it a condition?"

"The condition is that we need gold spirits, but we don't have gold spirits. Unless... there is a battle with the heavenly army. But in that case, I would rather fight with them more directly."

In the past five years, Huaguoshan has often had conflicts with the outside world due to various reasons. Of course, most of the opponents are various monster forces, and the main solution is to fight.

The world of demons is full of blood and darkness.

In a world where order is completely ineffective, the most direct and effective way to solve problems is for everyone to use their fists to compare whose fists are bigger. Under normal circumstances, the weaker party will give in, and the stronger party will get what they want, and the matter will be over.

What's more difficult now is that Huaguoshan is usually reluctant to show his fists except when taking action.

Yang Chan was silent.

Ao Cunxin was confused after hearing this, and asked: "What are you talking about? I have the gold spirit, how much do you want?"

The monkey glanced at her lightly and said, "We in Huaguoshan don't have the habit of using gold essence to buy things, and we don't want to break this rule."

Ao Cunxin was stunned for a moment, blinking and unable to react for a moment.

Breaking off a lychee and chewing it in his mouth, the monkey said slowly: "Duanzui and the others mean to start a war directly. Anyway, we won't be able to hide for long when the heavenly army returns to the mortal world, so it's better to revitalize our reputation and expand our power. But I I more support Yi Su’s opinion. It’s too early to show up now, we should first check the movements of the Tianhe navy.”

"Then what are you going to do? Put this matter on hold for now?"

"No. I plan to go there myself."

"This is also a way, but it is completely different from the previous plan." Yang Chan stirred a plate of fried vegetables in front of him with a chopstick, and said thoughtfully: "Dantongzi's recipe is accurate. Is it reliable?"

The monkey took a deep breath and said: "It should be reliable. I asked Yue Chao and the wind chime was indeed close to the realm of refining gods. I also asked the fifth senior brother. Although he has not seen the elixir, I can basically conclude that the third senior brother The elixir prescription I was given was not made up randomly. I think the old man must have deliberately leaked the elixir prescription to me through Fifth Senior Brother's mouth, so as to add fuel to the fire here."

Said. The corners of the monkey's mouth raised slightly and he smiled. He lowered his head and continued to nibble on the fruit, and said quietly: "This damn old man is really accurate in every trap."

Although the monkey has never directly dealt with Subhuti since he left Xianyue Sanxing Cave, in the past five years. Dantongzi, Qingyunzi and Yuechao would visit Huaguo Mountain from time to time, either intentionally or unintentionally. Each time they would bring some news to the monkeys, which would be more or less helpful to the monkeys.

And their behavior was more or less approved by Subhuti.

The monkey can feel it, and there is Subhuti's deliberate inducement in it. How to distinguish these inducements has always troubled the monkeys.

Of course, there are times when you do it even if you recognize it. Such as this time. In the face of huge benefits, the monkey is obviously determined to jump even if there are risks.

Resting her chin on the table, Yang Chan frowned slightly, thinking, "I'll go too, and bring all the capable people with me."

"If there are too many people, it will be troublesome. I can do it alone."

Yang Chan raised her eyelids slightly, looked at the monkey, and asked, "You have to think about this matter carefully. If you make a mistake, it will push us to the forefront."

"The risk may be a bit high, but it can shorten a lot of time. And now time is the biggest risk for us. Do nothing. It seems like a small risk, but maybe the heavenly army will come to your doorstep tomorrow. Rather than this, it's better Give it a try.”

Having said this, the monkey raised his head and glanced at Yang Chan lightly, smiling slightly: "Being timid is not the style that Huaguoshan should have."

Yang Chan and Ao Cun were both slightly stunned.

"I'm full, please take it easy." After saying that, the monkey stood up, wiped his mouth with a napkin, and walked away silently.

After the monkey walked away, Ao Cunxin turned back to look at Yang Chan and said, "Do you think it's okay with him talking so wildly?"

Yang Chan just shrugged and said nothing.

…

Walking to the entrance of Shuilian Cave, he jumped out and landed steadily on the edge of the deep pool.

Rushing waterfalls, roaring noises, and deep rolling pools. As the entrance to the Huaguoshan power base camp, it looks like an ordinary landscape from the outside. You can't even see the firelight and guards of ordinary monster caves, and you can't feel any monster energy.

This was specially done to deal with the scouts from heaven. All sentries were set up in dark places.

On the edge of the deep pool, a bright and plainly dressed woman in green sat blankly on a rock and looked up at the sky.

There is no trace of evil in her body, and her behavior and appearance are comparable to those of a fairy. But the monkey knew that she was not a fairy, but a grass spirit.

She is the grass that the monkey met at the entrance of Shuilian Cave five years ago. Now she has transformed, but she still stays here every day as before. It is said that she is waiting to bloom and wait for Shuilian Cave. The owner returns.

The monsters coming in and out have long been accustomed to her presence, or have long ignored her existence.

Lowering her head and looking at the monkey, she asked, "Are you going out so late?"

"Well, something happened."

She sighed, a faint mist floating in the air. He raised his head and continued to look up at the stars.

Turning around, the monkey turned into a golden light and disappeared into the northeastern night sky.

…

In a valley 1,500 miles northeast of Huaguo Mountain, in a Taoist temple, a group of monsters were toasting in celebration. The leader is a bear spirit.

Monsters are not human beings. From a certain point of view, they are more blood-based. He lacks brains and basically cultivates the bloodthirsty way of a practitioner, and he also lacks all kinds of restraints.

From a certain perspective, human beings' fear of monsters is not unreasonable.

In the mortal world. Taoist temples generally occupy places where spiritual energy is abundant and suitable for cultivation.

During the days when Heaven was busy with the case of Marshal Tianpeng Sifan and had no time to take care of the mortal world, except for places like Kunlun Mountain where great immortals were stationed, the rest of the human Taoist temples were more or less harassed by monsters and were conquered everywhere. Here, It's one place.

Three years ago, this brown bear spirit in the God Refining Realm led a group of monsters to kill the temple owner and Taoist disciples here. While occupying the Taoist temple, he also took the Taoist temple's most precious treasure "Hui Quan" as his own.

Originally, Huiquan was useless to these monsters. For most people cultivating demons, Huiquan is useless. Because the flow rate is extremely low, it is not even as good as an ordinary mountain spring.

But it’s different for those who happen to need it.

About three months ago, Monkey got a strange prescription from Dantongzi. This elixir has certain side effects, and the effect is to improve the enlightenment level in a very short period of time.

This Hui Quan is the only material in the elixir recipe, and it is the only one in the world.

What's worse is that this spring of wisdom has almost dried up. It is said to be a spring, but its daily output is only a few drops. These monsters don’t know how to save themselves.

In this case, stealing is obviously not an option.

If you want to take it, it will take at least nearly ten years to save enough to meet the needs of Huaguoshan.

According to the plan, the most ideal way would be to trade privately with these monsters, and have them save it and provide it to Huaguo Mountain. This would avoid a lot of trouble. After all, the distance of 1,500 miles is beyond the reach of Huaguo Mountain, and it is unrealistic to station there for a long time.

Moreover, the news that the Taoist temple was captured has already reached the heavens, and the heavenly army will surround and suppress this place sooner or later. The leader of the brown bear spirit himself has contacts with many demon kings. If he takes action rashly, he may also attract revenge from other demon kings.

This whole place is a big mess. There is no need for Huaguo Mountain to get involved in this trouble.

To this end, the monkey sent Lu Liuguai and Yi Su to negotiate with the other party, hoping to obtain it in a peaceful way. As a result, the other party, the lion, asked for ten thousand gold essence.

Negotiations broke down.

At this time, the brown bear spirit headed by him was gnawing on deer legs, holding a wine glass, and making trouble with a group of monsters in the dirty main hall of the Taoist temple.

"Your Majesty, where is Huaguo Mountain?" asked a little demon.

"It's... it's a mountain."

"What do they want Huiquan for?"

"I don't care what they want Huiquan for? They just know that I want Jinjing, right? Hahahahaha. Come on, come on, drink."

Raise your glass and drink it all in one gulp. The monsters around me all screamed.

"Hey, but speaking of it, that vixen is really good-looking. I have never seen such a beautiful monster when I was young. That figure... tsk tsk tsk tsk. If she stays as the wife of the village, it would be... a pity. Yes." A little demon said.

In a moment of endless reverie, those monsters all drooled.

"What's a banshee?" The brown bear spirit spat harshly: "Short-sighted!"

All the monsters fell silent and stared blankly at their boss.

"They definitely won't be able to get out ten thousand gold spirits. When the time comes, what is the name of that head I want from them? What did they say that idiot was called today?"

"It seems like your surname is Sun? Isn't it?"

I saw the ferocious look on the brown bear spirit's face slowly disappearing, revealing a lustful expression: "Yes! Let that fool named Sun even send me his concubine! Hahahaha! All his men are so beautiful, then The concubine is naturally even more..."

As he spoke, the brown bear spirit licked his lips excitedly.

Suddenly, there was a burst of laughter.

The hall became lively again.

"Your Majesty! Then give me the vixen today!"

"Damn it, get out! That's mine too!" The brown bear spirit laughed wildly, and all the monsters laughed with him.

The monkey sat opposite him expressionlessly, reached out and picked up an orange in the fruit bowl on the low table, and bit it without peeling it.

So close, acid juice splashed onto the face of the brown bear spirit.

The whole hall suddenly fell into dead silence, and all the monsters were stunned, staring blankly at the monkeys, covered in cold sweat.

After a short silence, the brown bear was so frightened that he jumped back with the nine-ringed sword, pointed at the monkey's nose and roared: "Who are you! When did you come in!"

With a flash, all the monsters stood up, pointed their weapons at the monkeys, and their eyes widened.

Under the gaze of all the monsters, the monkey sat quietly, silently gnawing at the orange, including the skin and flesh, then lazily raised his eyelids and looked at the brown bear spirit and said: "I am the one you just talked about. Idiot named Sun."
