The Monkey King

On the sea south of Huaguo Mountain, the sea breeze rustled.

At this time, half a month had passed since the Tianpeng Marshal Sifan case was settled in the mortal world, and more than five years had passed since the monkey returned to Huaguo Mountain.

A lone boat floated slowly towards Huaguo Mountain driven by the waves, with a young man in white standing on the bow.

The young man in white is petite, with his hair tied in a high bun, and a white silk ribbon fluttering behind him. He holds a folding fan in his hand and has an elegant demeanor.

That face was so delicate that it would put all the women in the world to shame.

After a long time, the lone boat was driven by the waves and approached the beach.

The young man in white slowly lifted up his white boots with golden peony embroidery and hung them in the air. He waited until the boat actually docked and then stepped on the beach.

This step sank directly into the sand and almost fell to the ground.

After finally standing firm, he looked down at the mud on his boots and the front hems splashed by sea water in embarrassment.

He let out a helpless breath and angrily walked to the grass far away, igniting white flames in his palms and smearing them on his boots.

After a while, he used his magic to clean up all the sand and seawater, and then he began to walk step by step in the woods, looking around.

In the grass not far away, two little demons with their faces painted in camouflage and their bodies covered with branches and leaves had already fully drawn their bows, pointing their arrows at the young man.

"Tell me, what could he be? A god? Or a monster?"

"I can feel spiritual power, but not demonic aura. I am probably a monk, at least in the God Refining realm."

The two little demons looked at each other.

"You go report it to the boss, I'll stay and continue to monitor you."

"OK."

In the woods, the young master frowned and walked step by step, stepping on the fallen leaves on the ground, looking at the primitive woods around him with a look of disgust.

"What the hell kind of place is this? How could Miss Chan'er come to such a place? The roaring dog won't lie to me, right?" Thinking about it, she said angrily: "If you dare to lie to me, you will definitely cheat him when you go back." Use it to wash the hot pot!"

The voice was sweet and sounded like a woman's.

More and more monsters gathered around her. But she didn't notice it.

After walking for a short while, "Gongzige" looked a little bored. He looked at the tall mountains in the distance and sighed: "Forget it, let's fly. When will we find it if we walk like this? Let's go around in a circle first."

Said. She turned around gracefully, and just as she was about to take off into the air, two monsters appeared out of nowhere and pulled a net over her head, covering her.

Suddenly there was a strange scream all around, and a large number of monsters came out from every corner, pointing their gleaming weapons at her through the net.

A muscular rat wearing leather armor chewed betel nut, walked up to her with a long knife, lifted her chin with the tip of the knife, and spit out the betel nut residue in his mouth. He said fiercely: "Who are you? Tell me your name! What are you doing in Huaguo Mountain? Tell me!"

She was obviously frightened, staring at the bright tip of the knife on her chin, her face turned pale, and two tears were rolling in her wide eyes.

She trembled and said: "Don't eat me... just kidnap me. My father will pay the ransom."

Before she could finish her words, she started to cry, which made the pear blossoms rain with tears and made the ferocious monsters around her feel embarrassed.

"Don't eat me, please don't eat me, dragon meat is not delicious..."

"Female?" Heizi frowned tightly.

"Brother Heizi, what should we do now?" A bat spirit came to Heizi and asked.

He stared at her and thought for a while. Heizi waved his hands helplessly and said: "Tie her up and take her back to ask questions when she is tired of crying."

Today's Heizi is no longer the short little mouse spirit he used to be.

In five years, he has now grown to more than five feet tall. With the help of Xie Yue Sanxing Cave and Yang Chan's pills, his cultivation level has also entered the realm of refining gods. He is no longer the same person as before. A little monster that even a wild boar can't catch.

After explaining his subordinates, Heizi took out a betel nut from his waist, put it in his mouth and started chewing it. Lowering his body, he mobilized his spiritual energy and ran towards the east.

Passing through the woods and over the creek, he soon climbed up a hill.

On the other side of the hill, in the shadow of a huge rock. The monkey's face was painted with red and yellow stripes, and he was wearing a worn-out leather armor and holding a walking stick, squatting in the corner like a down-and-out veteran, eating melon seeds with Short Mouth.

"Brother Monkey."

"What's the matter?" The monkey picked up a handful of melon seeds and put them aside.

Short Mouth also raised his head and glanced at Heizi.

He walked to the monkey and sat down cross-legged. Heizi followed suit and started eating melon seeds: "Brother Monkey, we caught a person... to be precise, he doesn't know whether he is a human or a monster yet."

"did not ask?"

"I haven't asked yet. I was crying so hard that I couldn't ask. I asked someone to take her back."

"Are you crying like crazy?" Short Mouth rolled his big eyes, bit open a melon seed, and said, "I guess it's not a monster, maybe it's an ordinary human who accidentally wandered in."

As he spoke, he broke open the bitten melon seeds, threw the seeds into his mouth, and swallowed them directly with his tongue.

It is inconvenient for birds to eat melon seeds, but he still likes to eat them.

Heizi hesitated for a moment and said, "She at least has the early stage cultivation of the God Refining Realm, and is not an ordinary human being."

The monkey spit out the melon seed shells in his mouth on the ground and asked, "Is there anything strange?"

"I haven't seen anything particularly wrong...but it doesn't look normal."

"Okay, tell me when you ask me something."

"Understood!" Heizi nodded, casually grabbed a handful of melon seeds and put them in his pocket, stood up and turned around to leave.

The monkey turned his head to face Short Mouth again and asked: "Where did you just say?"

"Speaking of that toad spirit, the toad spirit in the whole nest refuses to let us mine. Well... to be precise, he wants half of the weapons we make."

"Then tell him that I will invite him to a duel tomorrow, or a group fight. If he can beat me, all the weapons he makes will belong to him."

"That's not necessary." Short Mouth chuckled: "Dajiao has already taken someone to his home this afternoon."

"Can Dajiao deal with him?"

"Of course, Dajiao has already reached the state of divine transformation. What's the point of a nest of toads?"

"Then you tell me a story, and you can solve it yourself." Monkey rolled his lips.

"I want to say, is it appropriate to travel hundreds of miles to mine? Is it too much?"

"There is no way. Yang Chan has already explored it. The only ore we want nearby is there, and it is still a poor ore. Damn it. The materials smelted by warships alone cannot smelt weapons that can be embossed with patterns in the future, although this aspect has not been mentioned yet. Keep it on the agenda, but always think about it first.”

The monkey stood up unsteadily, leaning on the walking stick, and wiped the oil residue from his hands. He said: "Anyway, this matter must be implemented. Did those two guys follow me to see it?"

"I followed them, but didn't do anything as usual. Do you want to kill them? Their current cultivation seems to have reached the realm of gods. I guess they gave them a lot of pills."

"Leave it to them, just keep an eye on them."

"Yeah." Short Mouth nodded.

He reached out and took out his ears, turned around, and the monkey flew towards the water curtain hole.

At night, an oil lamp was lit in the dark stone chamber of Shuilian Cave, and the monkeys crossed their legs and practiced quietly.

As soon as he entered the state, Yang Chan walked in from the door.

She leaned against the door with her hands folded and sighed lightly: "Be careful next time. The latest news. Marshal Tianpeng has been pardoned. Next, I'm afraid the Tianhe navy will be dispatched again."

The monkey narrowed his eyes and raised his head to look at Yang Chan, and asked: "He was not demoted to earth?"

"No." Yang Chan shook his head: "The Jade Emperor let him go, but the immortals dared to be angry and dare not speak out. Now that his power is at its peak, I estimate that he will become even more powerful than before."

The monkey raised his head and sighed lightly.

What is going on?

In the Sifan case, Zhu Bajie was not demoted, and his power was still at its peak... This deviation must be too big.

When he first learned about the Tianpeng case, what the monkey thought was that it would be great if the Tianhe navy and the Nantianmen garrison were actually involved. If that were the case, all the old people in heaven would be left alone. Even if the canopy case was closed, there would still be no troops to suppress the demons in the lower world.

did not expect. In the end, everything was fine...

The days in the future should not be as carefree as they are now. Fortunately, in the past few years, I have been prepared for danger in times of peace and fought hard, and now I can be considered to have some wealth.

At least it is not easy for the Heavenly Army to move here.

Nodding, the monkey replied: "I will make them all restrain themselves."

If you can avoid causing trouble, it's better not to cause trouble. After all, time is on your side.

Yang Chan turned around and was about to leave, but she stood still as if she had remembered something. She turned around and said to the monkey: "By the way, my sister-in-law may come to see me. Please help me keep an eye on her in the past few days."

"Your sister-in-law?"

"Ao Cunxin, the third princess of the West Sea."

"Oh." Monkey suddenly realized. He nodded silently: "I will tell them about it."

Yang Chan was still worried and warned: "Remember, my sister-in-law... Anyway, you must remember to tell them, otherwise something will happen."

"Don't worry, a woman, or a female dragon, is easy to recognize...wait a minute." Monkey was slightly startled, then opened his eyes suddenly and said, "Today Heizi said he caught a guy who was crying so hard!"

…

In the dark cell, the fires on several braziers were burning brightly, illuminating the entire dark and damp dungeon in a dim red color.

Heizi stood with his hands folded, squinting his eyes and staring closely at the "gongzi brother" who was tied up and hung up.

"Why come to Huaguoshan? Tell me!"

"I was deceived! It's none of my business! Don't eat me! Kidnap me and ask for ransom. I have jade slips in my pocket! You can have as much as you want. My father will send someone to deliver the ransom soon. !" She screamed at the top of her lungs, tears streaming down her face again.

"Who tricked you into coming here?" Heizi asked viciously.

She was crying so hard that she couldn't even speak.

Seeing her crying into tears, Heizi's face turned even darker and he was extremely impatient.

A sparrow spirit came to Heizi with a red-hot iron rod and asked quietly: "How about torture?"

"You're crying like this even if you don't have to be tortured. How can you ask if you're going to be tortured?" Heizi rolled his eyes at the sparrow spirit.

If the other party refuses to say anything, he can find a solution and cry until he is speechless...

I have never encountered such a prisoner before. He is really a troublesome creature.

Just when all the monsters were helpless, the door of the cell was slammed open, and the monkey and Yang Chan rushed in together.

"sister in law!"

"Sister Chan'er..."

When she saw Yang Chan, Ao Cunxin cried even harder, couldn't hold her breath, and passed out.

ps:

Phew... I finished shopping with my future father-in-law and mother-in-law, and I just came back to code.
