The Monkey King

Deep in the darkness, the sun was suspended expressionlessly, watching.

Wait quietly.

The seafloor was covered with moss, and the currents were surging. The faint light from the Dragon Palace not far away reflected everything in a pale color.

The monkey approached the giant pillar step by step, and did not stop until he was so close that he could even feel the slight coolness emanating from the pillar.

Behind him, the dolphin spirit, horned snake, and shark spirit were watching him silently, not knowing why.

No one can understand the monkey's mood at this moment.

My blood boils, but I feel uneasy.

This was his destined weapon.

When he pulls up the golden cudgel, he is no longer an ordinary monkey demon, but the upright Monkey King, the Monkey King, who can roam the world at will.

After all these years, we have finally reached this point.

After pulling out the golden cudgel, the next step is to go to the underworld.

Find the Palace of Life and Death, find out the whereabouts of Que'er's soul, and resurrect him.

There was a beast roaring in my heart, hoarse.

Trembling slightly, he stretched out his hand and stared at the stone pillar in front of him with wide eyes, as if his heart was about to jump out of his chest.

Undercurrents surged around, and the dense kelp forest trembled slightly with the sea water. The creatures hiding in it poked their heads out and stared at the strange outsider.

The whole world was so quiet that it was as if he was the only one left in the deep silent sea.

After a long time, my fingertips finally touched the moss growing on the volcanic ash on the cylinder.

In an instant, golden ripples spread out like ripples from where his fingertips touched, affecting the entire stone pillar and trembling.

He took a step back in shock.

A roar suddenly sounded in his mind, and the monkey couldn't help but narrow his eyes slightly.

It was a tingling feeling coming from the depths of the soul, like some kind of resonance, which made people shudder.

The volcanic ash, moss and even shells on the Dinghai needle began to fall off with slight trembling, and floated into the sea to form smoke and dust that blocked the view, even the monkeys were enveloped.

The three monsters behind him were all surprised. He stepped back and stared at the strange scene in front of him with wide eyes.

In the distance, in the depths of darkness, Taishang Laojun was still watching all this quietly, with a faint fluorescent light flashing on his outstretched index finger. Echoing the ripples on the giant pillar.

A wave of sea currents passed by, the smoke dispersed, and a golden giant pillar appeared in front of the eyes. The golden dragon relief totem on it seemed to be given life in an instant, emitting a faint golden light, waiting for the moment to jump up.

The monkey looked up at the giant pillar that reached the top, without any emotion on his face, while the three monsters behind him were already shocked and speechless.

After a long silence, the monkey stretched out his hands towards the giant pillar.

The Supreme Being in the distance was waiting quietly, and the fluorescence on his hands had already closed and dispersed.

However. At this moment, the corner of the monkey's mouth raised slightly, looking around at the bottomless darkness, he smiled lightly.

This smile made the three monsters behind him confused. Even the Supreme Being in the darkness couldn't help but open his eyes slightly.

Do you really want to take it? Maybe, but not now.

The monkey smiled, retreated step by step under the Emperor's confused gaze, turned around, and walked towards the three monsters standing in the distance.

"Okay, I see, let's go." The monkey reached out and patted the dolphin spirit on the shoulder: "Thank you for leading the way."

"Just leaving?"

The dolphin spirit was stunned for a moment. I still don’t understand what monkey means. Seeing the monkey leaving with the two monsters, he had no choice but to follow him cautiously with his body bowed.

Watching the four monsters getting further and further away, the Supreme Master narrowed his eyes to a slit, opened his sleeves and counted with his fingers, and was stunned.

A smile appeared on the old face, and he slowly closed his eyes.

A strong current passed by. In the blink of an eye, the Supreme Being had disappeared into the boundless darkness.

…

The huge white shell was opened, a string of bubbles rose up, and then quickly closed, waiting for the next eruption.

In the gorgeous Dragon Palace. There are gorgeous corals as the base, swarms of colorful fish as decorations, and bright night pearls that make everything bright.

Neatly equipped soldiers were displayed on both sides, countless maids came and went carrying items, and various exquisite dishes and wines were placed on the low table.

Carefully arranged.

On the way here, Ao Cunxin and Ao Tingxin also saw the singer from Dragon Palace rehearsing. The scene was like welcoming a distinguished guest.

This couldn't help but cause the two of them to have the slightest doubt.

"My face shouldn't be that great, right?" Ao Cunxin said doubtfully, holding Ao Tingxin's hand.

"Sister Cun Xin, is the monkey demon you mentioned famous in the mortal world?"

"No. If I hadn't gone to Huaguo Mountain to find a girl this time, I would have never heard of this guy. Moreover, his cave is pitiful and simple, and he doesn't have many monsters under his command. Speaking of which, he is just a monster from a remote area. That's all." After thinking for a moment, Ao Cunxin frowned and said, "I told my uncle before that I had never heard of him before, so why did he suddenly..."

"Could it be that he had a happy chat with his father, so he upgraded the reception standards?" Ao Tingxin asked.

"Here, that guy doesn't talk much, so he doesn't offend anyone. We still have a good conversation with him?"

Not long after, the entire banquet was arranged, and the dolphin spirit led the monkey in from outside the hall, respectfully all the way.

Seeing this scene, the monkey was also slightly startled.

Before the Dragon King arrived, Prime Minister Turtle had already entered the venue and started arranging the seats.

The main seat naturally belongs to the Dragon King, and a secondary seat is specially added for the monkey on the side of the main seat and on the steps.

This kind of arrangement usually only occurs when receiving distinguished guests, even when receiving the Sea Dragon King.

Downstairs are the seats of the two dragon ladies, and across from them is Prime Minister Turtle. Unexpectedly, places were arranged for the Horned Snake and the Shark Spirit, and they were accompanied by several generals and civil servants from the Dragon Palace. This etiquette was indeed in place.

Speaking of which, Monkey only minded that he was asked to go through the side door when entering. He didn't care about the others. Now that he saw such a battle, he was a little surprised for a while.

Of course, he was not the only one who was surprised, everyone in the Dragon Palace was also confused - how could a shabbily dressed demon monkey be treated like this in the rich and powerful East China Sea Dragon Palace?

When everyone was seated, a shout rang out.

"His Majesty the Dragon King has arrived——!"

According to etiquette. Everyone stood up, and all the courtiers of the Dragon Palace knelt down and shouted: "Welcome the Dragon King!"

The palace maidens filed in from the side door, and the two-foot-tall old Dragon King walked in from the side door step by step and walked to the dragon chair. First, he looked around and bowed his hands towards the monkey.

The monkey also quickly bowed and raised his hand in return.

The Dragon King then sat down, stretched out his hand and said, "Everyone, please take a seat."

After everyone sat down, the Dragon King stroked his long beard and said, "Today's banquet is to welcome the distinguished guests of my East China Sea Dragon Palace."

After that, he looked at the monkey and said with a smile: "This must be King Sun of Huaguo Mountain."

The monkey was flattered by this cry, and he hurriedly cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty the Dragon King. Just call me Sun Wukong."

A trace of doubt couldn't help but emerge in her mind.

Previously, he was allowed to enter through the side door, but now the etiquette was so grand.

What happened in the middle? The monkey was puzzled.

After listening to the monkey's words, the Dragon King laughed and said: "Huaguo Mountain is also a blessed land, and you are the king of Huaguo Mountain. There is nothing wrong with calling you a king. But it seems that there is no official name yet. This Sun Dawang It's really awkward to scream. Have you ever thought about getting one?"

"It's not that the name doesn't exist, it's just that it's rarely mentioned."

"Oh? Can you tell me what the name is?"

"Huaguo Mountain Water Curtain Cave, Monkey King."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ao Cun, who was not far away, burst into laughter.

Everyone looked at her. Looking at it, she realized that she was the only one smiling, so she had to close her mouth and sit still, pretending not to know.

Ao Tingxin on the other side asked in a low voice: "Why are you laughing, sister?"

"Don't you think it's funny? Monkey King? How dare you scream, how beautiful is he?" Ao Cunxin looked at the monkey with contempt on his face.

Ao Tingxin fanned her long eyelashes. Covering her mouth, she also smiled secretly and said softly: "Sister is still so outspoken."

“No matter how beautiful a hairy face is, it’s just like that.”

"Perhaps he is the most beautiful among monkeys?"

"That's the kind of beauty only a female monkey would find." Ao Cunxin rolled her eyes and said.

At this point, Ao Tingxin laughed even more uncontrollably and raised her head. Suddenly she realized that the monkey was looking at her from a distance, so she quickly put away her smiling face, put down her sleeves and sat down.

The old Dragon King, who was sitting on the dragon chair, lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said: "Monkey King? This name is also resounding, but since it exists, why not use it?"

The monkey said: "I am of a weak nature and don't pay attention to these things. In Huaguo Mountain, some people call me monkey, some call me monkey brother, and some call me king. They all have their own reasons. I'm used to it, so I'm too lazy to change it. . It’s just a title, and it’s not like an official position in heaven that comes with a salary, so why bother with it?”

The Dragon King laughed loudly after hearing this and raised his glass: "I have never seen such a demon king in my life. This is my first cup, and I respect your indifference! Come on!"

Everyone raised their glasses.

This wine seemed to be almost the same as the wine in the world, but in the end it was the wine from the Undersea Dragon Palace. When it was soaked in the cup and soaked in the sea, it did not seep out at all.

When it reached his lips, the monkey sniffed it carefully, but found no smell of wine, so he couldn't help but hesitate.

Looking around, I found that everyone had finished their drinks in one gulp, and their expressions were as usual. Then I felt relieved and drank them all in one gulp.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the wine was in my mouth, a spiciness erupted out, and I almost choked.

Covering his mouth, the monkey couldn't calm down for a while.

Seeing the monkey's embarrassment, the two dragon girls laughed softly again, but none of the others laughed.

The old Dragon King quickly asked: "Is the Monkey King okay?"

The monkey wanted to speak, but it was too hot to speak, so he had to wave his hands to show that he was okay.

The old Dragon King was relieved and said with a faint smile: "I have not thought it through carefully. The Monkey King is not a water tribe. He is not used to the wine brewed by my water tribe for the first time. He still needs to do it step by step and not to rush. Continue. Just do whatever you want.”

The monkey finally regained his composure and said helplessly: "It's okay, it's okay, it's nothing."

Only then did the banquet officially begin.

During the dinner, Prime Minister Turtle was extremely enthusiastic. The Dragon King even asked Monkey carefully if he was satisfied with the reception in Dragon Palace. He was so concerned that Ao Cunxin felt a little jealous.

She thought that she and Yang Jian were not treated like this when they came here. In order to get in, Yang Jian had a fight with Bingwei, and finally the old dragon king gave up after showing weakness. Now that the monkey is here, and the old Dragon King is so interested in him, how can she not feel unhappy?

After three rounds of drinking, the old Dragon King took advantage of the wine and asked, "In which year did the Monkey King move to Huaguo Mountain? Why doesn't he come to the Dragon Palace to walk around?"

"In what year did we move to Huaguo Mountain? Here, I have been in Huaguo Mountain since I was born. No one recommended me before, so it's not easy to visit rashly."

"Oh?" The old Dragon King winked at Prime Minister Turtle and said, "The Monkey King is here for the first time. I have something to give as a gift. I wonder if the Monkey King recognizes it?"

The Prime Minister Turtle stood up and struck twice with his palms.

I saw two shrimp soldiers carrying a long red box coming in from outside the temple and placing it in front of the monkey.

Without thinking much, the monkey reached out and opened the long box, and the expression on his face suddenly froze slightly.

Placed quietly in the box is a cloud-walking stick.
