The Monkey King

Qingxin was startled.

"Come here quickly, don't wait too long. Donghai Dragon Palace said he would be arriving soon, but by the time you arrive... Oops! He is already outside Nantianmen..."

When he heard this sentence, Qingxin's heart skipped a beat, and his eyes opened wide, like a timid little girl.

Qingxin trembled slightly and asked, "He...what is he here for?"

"I don't know either. Anyway, come here quickly! I...mother, I have to go help. Hurry up! Come here quickly and wait for your help!"

At the other end of the jade slip, Nezha's voice stopped.

Qingxin stood blankly, holding the jade slip, hesitating, her breathing a little messy.

"I...am going to see him?" She clutched her chest, closed her eyes tightly, tried hard to calm her breathing, and kept chanting silently: "Calm down, calm down, he doesn't know, he doesn't know anything...Yes, Yes, he doesn’t know anything…”

After a while, she recovered slightly. Taking a deep breath, he rose into the air and flew towards the Nantianmen.

…

On the vast flat land outside the Nantian Gate, the monkey stood alone, holding a golden hoop and facing the closed door, picking his ears and waiting, with a look of displeasure on his face.

On the inner city tower of Nantian Gate, a large number of generals gathered together nervously, looking out with wide eyes.

It's just a stalemate.

After a while, Qing Xin finally arrived after a long journey. As soon as she stepped into the tower, everyone immediately looked at her. Qingxin also looked at them somewhat dullly.

After a short silence. Nezha emerged from the crowd with a "hoo" sound. Without any explanation, he took Qing Xin's hand and ran out.

"Why did you come here? Fortunately, the monkey didn't attack!"

"Wait...wait a moment..."

"What are you waiting for? It's imminent!"

"No...I...I have to ask clearly..."

"He is your senior brother, how can he still eat you? He really dares to eat us!"

Being dragged along by Nezha, the two quickly descended the stairs. He rushed to the passage in front of Nantianmen.

Li Jing was waiting anxiously. As soon as he saw Qingxin arriving, he immediately greeted her, took out a roll of yellow silk from her sleeve and stuffed it into Qingxin's hand, and said in a low voice: "This is your Majesty's just decree, to make you an imperial envoy and take charge of everything with this monkey." Relevant matters. The situation is urgent now, so let’s look back later.”

Qingxin looked at the yellow silk in her hand with a blank look on her face: "Heavenly Court. Does Heavenly Court have the position of Imperial Envoy?"

Li Jing was slightly startled. He whispered: "It didn't happen before, but it will happen in the future. Now the monkey is outside the door and has been waiting for a while. If he doesn't go out, something will happen. Remember, His Majesty means that no matter what, it will be fine. We must take into account the face of Heaven. At the same time, we should not let the monkey take whatever he wants, otherwise I am afraid it will become more and more excessive in the future."

After saying that, Li Jing turned around and waved his hand, signaling the heavenly soldiers to open the Nantian Gate.

"Wait a moment!"

Before Tian Bing could take a step forward, Qing Xin grabbed Li Jing's wrist.

Suddenly, Nezha, Li Jing, and even the heavenly soldiers who were about to walk towards the wheel to open the door were all stunned. Everyone looked at her.

Qingxin's eyes kept flickering, she looked a little flustered, and she opened her mouth slightly. But he didn't say anything for a long time.

"What's the matter?" Nezha asked with a frown.

"I...I'm not ready yet, can you handle it on your own this time?"

"What do you need to prepare for this?"

"I……"

"Okay, hurry up! If you wait any longer, the monkey will go crazy!"

Nezha immediately turned behind Qingxin. No matter what Qingxin said, it was useless. He stretched out his hands and pushed Qingxin towards the door. That day the soldiers also quickly walked to the wheel, held the handrails with both hands, and began to turn vigorously.

The clang of chains being pulled. Amidst the rumble of the gears turning, the friction of the gate bearings, and the bursts of roar, the Nantian Gate slowly opened a crack.

The strong light from outside the door shone through the gap, which was very dazzling.

Qingxin couldn't help but cover it with her hands.

Before Qing Xin could react, Li Jing had already stood beside Qing Xin and whispered: "Remember what you just said, don't make any mistakes. Once you get out of this door, you will have to make your own decisions."

"You won't go out with me?"

"ah?"

For a moment, Li Jing and Qing Xin looked at each other blankly.

Qingxin said in panic: "I...I don't understand the mechanism of heaven. You must be present, otherwise what will I do?"

Amidst the roar, Nantianmen has opened to the width of a palm. The strong light shone on Qing Xin's body, coating the outline with a layer of gold out of thin air.

Time was running out, so Li Jing had no choice but to nod his head and said, "Nezha, you are coming too."

"Me? Why should I go too?"

Li Jing immediately glared at him angrily, and Nezha then obediently lowered his head.

The screeching noise finally stopped.

The strong wind from high altitude swept in, and the clouds and mist outside the door rushed towards my face like a tide.

Three people stood side by side at the gate, but no one took the first step.

Li Jing and Nezha both frowned and looked at Qing Xin. Qing Xin stood in panic with a hand on her chest, looking back and forth between the two of them.

For a moment, the three people froze.

As the clouds and mist gradually dispersed, the monkey's figure, less than the size of a fingernail, appeared in the distance.

He was holding a golden hoop and looking at the three people with his head tilted.

Li Jing repeatedly winked at Qingxin and asked her to move forward, but Qingxin didn't move a step.

Time passed by bit by bit, Li Jing was already sweating profusely, and the fire-tip gun in Nezha's hand tightened again and again.

"How long do you want to stand there?" A dissatisfied roar of monkeys came from the distance.

Li Jing gritted his teeth and shouted in a low voice: "Let's go, won't you go?"

"How about... let me do it next time?"

Qingxin shrank back slightly and was about to turn around and run away.

Nezha quickly grabbed her.

"You can't leave! This is what you promised. What's the point of leaving at this juncture?"

Just like this, the monkey was already very impatient. After a while, the three of them finally started to move forward, but it was not Qingxin who took the lead as planned at the beginning. Instead, Li Jing was at the front, Qing Xin was second, and Nezha was last.

The father and son held Qingxin in tandem, sending Qingxin in the direction of the monkey.

Along the way, Qingxin kept her head down, walking and walking, quietly looking at the monkey from time to time. That look was full of anxiety.

The monkey yawned. Looking at her from a distance, expression on her face. I was wondering in my heart: "Is this so-called junior sister planning to cause some trouble for me again?"

After a while, the three of them came to the monkey. The monkey had already sat cross-legged, with the golden cudgel leaning crookedly on his shoulder.

Li Jing bowed and put his hands forward, and said softly: "Thank you, the great sage, for waiting for a long time. Li Jing deserves death."

"Have you known for a long time?" Monkey looked at Li Jing lazily. His face seemed a bit ugly.

Li Jing could only smile dryly and bow again.

Immediately afterwards, he introduced sideways: "This is His Majesty's envoy, representing Your Majesty. Maybe... the Great Sage also knows him."

"We know her." Monkey raised his chin, looked at Qingxin and sighed: "My little junior sister, how can I not know her? Tell me, what do you mean by bringing her here?"

Li Jing laughed dryly again and said softly: "The Qingxin Envoy is a newly promoted immortal family in Heaven. She specializes in handling foreign affairs on behalf of His Majesty... In the future, if the Great Sage needs help from Heaven for anything, he can contact her. "

Qingxin mustered up the courage and was about to speak, but saw that the monkey had already turned his face towards Li Jing and said, "Don't use such tricks, okay? Find a little girl to hold the tank? What's the point?"

"This is His Majesty's will."

"Okay, okay." Monkey waved his hand and said, "Whoever can take care of it is fine. Anyway, I just need to take care of my business."

Hear this. Li Jing finally felt relieved a little.

He said this, but the monkey's face was still facing Li Jing, without even looking at Qing Xin, as if Qing Xin didn't exist.

Qingxin already looked a little unhappy, but she just pursed her lips and stood quietly without having an attack.

The monkey scratched his face and said to Li Jing: "I'm here for one thing only. I want food. It's enough to feed two million people for a year. I need it now, it's urgent."

"Two million people..." Li Jing suddenly took a breath of cold air, his eyes slightly tilted towards Qing Xin, and said: "This... Heaven may not be able to produce so much food at a time."

The monkey tapped Li Jing's shoulder lightly with the golden hoop and said with a smile: "How to get food is your problem. If the food is really not enough, you have to use flat peaches instead, and I will turn a blind eye. , in short, I have to collect enough food for two million people for a year."

Li Jing's eyes cautiously moved back and forth between Monkey and Qingxin, as if waiting for Qingxin to help him out. However, Qingxin didn't speak for a while.

In desperation, Li Jing had no choice but to cough twice and said: "Envoy Qingxin, the Great Sage asked for food. Do you... have any opinions?"

At this point, the monkey turned his eyes to look at Qing Xin with a playful expression.

Qingxin frowned and said, "If you want food, just give it to me."

"Ah?" As soon as these words came out, Nezha and Li Jing were both shocked.

Is this a relationship that invited a spy back?

The monkey laughed immediately and was about to praise him, but unexpectedly Qingxin raised his head slightly and added: "But there are conditions."

Hearing this, Li Jing and Nezha finally breathed a sigh of relief. The monkey laughed even more cheerfully, but it was a malicious smile.

He wants something from Heaven. When will it be Heaven's turn to bargain with him? Is this looking for sex?

Before the monkey could speak, he heard Qing Xin's loud voice: "You can ask for food. I Qing Xin promise you that you can get whatever amount you want. Even if the Jade Emperor can't do it, I have other ways to do it. But there are conditions."

The monkey stood up slowly, leaning on the golden hoop, and said leisurely: "What are the conditions?"

"You go to Huashan Mountain to rescue Yang Chan, the Third Holy Mother. Also, you are not allowed to go further west. Go back to Huaguo Mountain to get married. How about this condition?" (To be continued ~^~)
