The Monkey King

Three months later, in the underworld, in front of the Palace of Life and Death.

The door slowly opened a crack, and a short, fat ghost almost slipped in. He nodded to his colleagues on the left and right, then hurried towards the main hall, shouting: "Your Highness Yama! The demon of Huaguo Mountain!" The army is coming soon!"

"Monster army?" King Qin Guang's face looked a little ugly. He pointed at the prostrate ghost and asked in a low voice: "You mean, he brought a lot of monsters?"

"A lot." The ghost nodded heavily.

"how many?"

"Yes..." Gui Cha lowered his head and counted for a while, then raised his head and said with longing eyes, "There are several thousand."

"How many thousands?" All the Yamas present looked at each other.

One of them, Yama, whispered: "Do you want to transfer the Huangquan Army?"

"No need." King Qin Guang gritted his teeth and shouted: "Get ready to welcome——!"

"promise!"

…

In the pitch-black world, in the biting wind, a demon army of two thousand people flew slowly, looking at the spots in the woods on the ground and marveling again and again.

For most of them, this is their first time in the underworld.

Unlike heaven, the underworld and the mortal world are not directly connected by entrances and exits like the Nantianmen. In the final analysis, these two completely different worlds are only separated by a simple magic spell.

Of course, not everyone knows this technique. In order for the living to perform this set of spells independently, they must at least be at the God Refining Realm. In addition, there are a lot of evil spirits in the underworld that can harm the living. It makes sense that few of these 2,000 monsters above the God Refining Realm have ever been to the underworld.

After a long time, a high mountain slowly appeared on the horizon.

This thousand-foot high mountain stands in the center of the plain, and dense firelight can be seen from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain. With the help of these weak firelights, monkeys with excellent eyesight can even see the strange sculptures scattered up and down the mountain.

Waving his hand to hover the entire army, Monkey turned his face and asked in a low voice: "Second Senior Brother. Is this the Palace of Life and Death?"

A monster with an ugly purple face, wearing Huaguo Mountain's unified armor, slowly approached the monkey and whispered: "Yes. There are a lot of lights today."

"It must be because we are preparing to welcome the Monkey King." Another ugly monster with a green face said with a smile.

These two strange monsters, green and purple, were transformed by second senior brother Youquan and fourth senior brother Yi Yuan. At present, apart from the eldest brother, only these two of the nine sons of Lingtai can move around freely. The rest are still thinking about their mistakes behind closed doors in Xianyue Sanxing Cave.

The evil spirit in the air is getting heavier and heavier, and the demon army has landed on the ground. Start walking.

A few hundred feet ahead. A huge moat appeared in front of everyone, which must be the legendary "Nai River".

Single-plank bridges more than ten feet long were built on the river, crumbling. There are too many to count. One end of these single-plank bridges leads to the Palace of Life and Death, and the other ends radiate in all directions. A stone monument stands in front of them. There are four characters written on it: "Different paths lead to the same destination".

The monkey asked in a low voice: "Shouldn't it be called Naihe Bridge?"

Youquanzi smiled faintly and said: "No, the Naihe Bridge is located behind the Tenth Hall. Souls will only walk up it when they are reincarnated. These bridges are used to attract the souls of the dead from all directions."

"So that's it," Monkey stared blankly at the dying souls in the river and asked, "Who are these people?"

"Those who don't pay back the money they owe, those who take advantage of it and enjoy themselves. In short, if you want to go to the Naihe River, you must first soak in the Naihe River where the corpse water flows for a period of time. When did the hardships you endured slowly eliminate the debts in the world? When can I go to the Palace of Life and Death for trial for the debt I owe?" After saying that, Youquanzi led the demons and said, "The evil energy on the Naihe River is so strong that it will do a lot of damage to the living. Normally, the underworld is used as a natural hazard. . However, there is a main bridge in front of the Hall of Life and Death, which is used to welcome the inspections of the heavenly officials. Where do we go?"

"There is only one bridge?" Heizi asked in a low voice, "Then will they set up an ambush there?"

Hearing this, Monkey closed his eyes and took a closer look at the surrounding situation: "There is no large-scale military force. We are at the lowest level of the God Refining Realm here. We are not afraid of setting up an ambush."

After saying that, the monkey turned his face to the other side and told the wind chime: "Don't leave me ten steps away."

Wind Chime nodded nervously.

She stared blankly at the monkey, her hand hidden in her sleeve holding Kong Jingdou tightly.

Even she herself doesn't know why she came here on this journey.

Que'er is in Tushita Palace, but should she really tell Monkey?

If one day, the monkey knew that he had already seen the bird, but deliberately concealed it, what kind of rage would it be? Will he forgive himself?

Maybe, he will hate himself, blame himself, and never see himself again from now on.

My little heart was filled with all kinds of uneasiness. But even so, she still didn't say anything. Just like a stubborn child who has done something bad, waiting innocently for the moment to be discovered.

Waiting, punishment...

The army is on the move again.

In the distance, the ten-foot-high gate of the Palace of Life and Death suddenly opened, and a large number of ghost soldiers swarmed out like ants holding flags, quickly swarming across the bridge to form a formation.

"Ten Halls of Hell, welcome the Great Sage Qitian——!" King Qin Guang, who was walking in the middle, shouted at the top of his lungs.

"Ten Halls of Hell, welcome to the Great Sage Qitian——!" All the ghost soldiers shouted, and the sound was earth-shattering.

Monkey laughed dumbly: "Isn't this... too cooperative?"

Yiyuanzi said softly: "It's better to be careful."

"If they dare to cheat, I will tear their mouths apart one by one."

Saying that, the monkey stepped forward quickly.

The Yamas of the Tenth Hall hurriedly came forward one by one, with their deeply bowed figures looking like slaves.

"We are honored to welcome the Great Sage to the Palace of Life and Death."

The monkey grabbed King Qin Guang in front of him with one hand, hooked his neck and said with a smile: "Just honor is not enough, take this great sage to check the book of life and death."

King Qin Guang wiped the cold sweat with his sleeve and looked back at the demon army behind him. He whispered: "Great Sage, I have arranged a place for them all. Why not let the ghosts take them first..."

"What are you talking about?" The monkey looked at King Qin Guang lazily and said, "They are all here to help me, the Great Sage, check the book of life and death."

"Help...check..."

Bringing two thousand people here to check the book of life and death?

All the Yamas present could not help but be shocked.

Seeing the troubled look of King Qin Guang, the monkey asked expressionlessly: "What? Isn't it possible?"

"No, no... it's just." King Qin Guang said tremblingly: "It's just that the Palace of Life and Death is an important place. It doesn't seem to be in compliance with the rules for so many people to enter together."

"How many volumes do you have in your life and death book? If I don't bring more people, when are you going to ask me to check it?"

After hesitating for a moment, King Qin Guang had to bow and said: "I understand the humble position."

Under the leadership of Yama of the Tenth Hall, the entire demon army marched into the Hall of Life and Death.

When Gui Cha opened the door of the palace where the Book of Life and Death was ordered at the command of King Qin Guang, a strong sinister aura rushed towards his face, and those with lower cultivation levels in the team couldn't help but shudder.

This evil spirit even has a nourishing effect on the soul body. But it is like poison to the living. You must be at least at the God Refining Realm or above to be able to withstand it.

If Feng Ling hadn't taken a lot of pills in Tousita Palace, he might not be able to hold on at this moment.

Step by step into the hall, Monkey saw the stacks of huge bookshelves, like huge walls, filled with books. Looking down the aisle, it was pitch dark inside, and the edges could not be seen at a glance.

"What a big project..." The monkey was a little dumbfounded.

Before he came, he knew that there were ten volumes in the Book of Life and Death. But when I actually saw it, I still couldn't help but be shocked.

King Qin Guang on the side licked his withered lips and was about to say something, but before he could say anything, he saw a monkey reaching out: "Do it!"

Hearing this, all the demons swarmed in and quickly began to distinguish the year to which each bookshelf belonged.

Youquanzi and Yiyuanzi stood on both sides, tapping each monster's eyebrows to ensure that they could detect what they were looking for as soon as possible.

"Great Sage...this..."

"Okay, you have nothing to do here. I know how to check it myself."

King Qin Guang panicked and said with a flattering smile: "The great sage is here, how can you not serve me in such a humble position?"

"Are you afraid that I will damage the Book of Life and Death?"

"Don't dare!" King Qin Guang shook his head and waved his hands. He said solemnly: "It's just that...it's easy for the great sage to ask anything he wants to do when he's in a humble position..."

"As you like."

With that said, the monkey also strode into the ranks of checking.

…

Lingxiao Palace, Imperial Study Room.

The God of Fortune respectfully reported: "Your Majesty, the demon monkey has brought people and horses into the Palace of Life and Death."

"Did you bring men and horses? How many did you bring?"

"I brought... two thousand."

"Two thousand?" The Jade Emperor was suddenly startled and said angrily: "Does this monster monkey still want to capture the Yin Cao?"

"I'm afraid that he has this idea... The demon monkey really attaches great importance to this matter and is determined to win. If he really ambushed the troops in the Palace of Life and Death. Based on his character, he would really dare to attack at all costs."

If there is a military disaster in the Palace of Life and Death, there will be a catastrophe in the three realms.

The Jade Emperor frowned and sighed helplessly, feeling like a scholar meeting a soldier.

In the final analysis, that monkey is just a prince. He only needs to take care of his own one-third of an acre. He is the Jade Emperor, responsible for supervising the three realms.

If a war breaks out, regardless of victory or defeat, he will definitely be the one to clean up the mess.

There was a military disaster in the Palace of Life and Death, and the level of chaos was not comparable to the military siege of Nantianmen.

Thinking about it, his temples couldn't help but ache.

After a slight pause, the God of Fortune added: "Your Majesty, that monster monkey also brought someone who is proficient in onmyoji. Judging from the situation, he wants to completely bypass all Yamas and investigate it himself."

"Completely bypass it? You mean, they haven't figured out what the demon monkey wants to find out yet?"

"That's true..." Fu Xing whispered: "However, Your Majesty, judging from the situation, the demon monkey just doesn't believe in the Yamas, not that he has become suspicious."

"It's okay if that's the case." After a pause, the Jade Emperor waved his hand and said, "Let's explore again!"

"promise!"

…

In the thirty-third heaven, Taishang Laojun slowly opened his eyes with a rather complicated expression. (To be continued ~^~)

PS: I have a bad cold...could it be bird flu? Everyone must pray that I survive until the end of the book, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! ! !
