The Monkey King

Outside Huaguo Mountain, on the flagship deck of the Nantianmen fleet, several heavenly soldiers cooperated with a heavenly general to hurriedly carry the seriously injured and unconscious King of Growth into the cabin.

Several Enlightenment Taoist military doctors followed behind, muttering: "Slow down, slow down."

The intermittent dripping of blood left a faint trace on the deck.

Nezha sat on the ground in the corner, leaning the fire-pointed spear on his shoulder, holding the Linglong Pagoda with a frustrated look on his face.

King Duowen and King Chiguo stood in front of him without saying a word, with solemn expressions.

It was like deathly silence on the deck, and the generals were leaderless.

After a long time, a veteran walked up to the three of them, cupped his hands and said, "Two heavenly kings and third prince, please tell us what we should do next."

King Duowen raised his head and sighed casually: "Retreat."

"No." King Chiguo panted rapidly and looked at King Duowen and said, "We can't retreat!"

"What should we do if we can't retreat? King Li Tian is in the hands of that monster monkey now!"

"Where should we retreat? Should we retreat to Nantianmen? There is no way we can hide this matter. It won't be long before the Heavenly Court knows about it. Not only will they continue to attack, but they will also hold us accountable for concealing military information."

"Hmph!" King Duowen suddenly sneered: "After talking for a long time, you are just afraid of being held responsible? It is really in vain that King Wang usually values ​​you so much!"

"You!" King Chiguo was furious for a moment. He took a breath and then continued: "Is Chiguo like this? If we are dismissed and a new group of people take over the Nantianmen, who will care at that time? King Li’s life or death? It’s impossible to even talk about rescuing King Li!”

King Duo Wen widened his eyes and shouted: "That's better than not withdrawing our troops. Didn't you understand just now? If we don't withdraw our troops, the monster monkey will take the King's life at any time!"

"Then we withdrew our troops? Look at Guangmu. You have not seen the methods of the demon monkey. What will happen if King Li Tian stays in his hands for a while? This matter must be resolved here! We are using the demon monkey to It's true that the monkey can't help it. But who can he stop with an army of 180,000? It's more than enough to flatten the Huaguo Mountain! As long as the monster monkey is still afraid, and we don't withdraw our troops, King Li Tian will be safe. If we can't reach an agreement today, let's talk tomorrow. If we can't agree tomorrow, we'll talk the day after tomorrow! The 180,000 heavenly troops are dispatched, and the whole heaven is watching. We withdrew our troops inexplicably. Do you think those immortal generals in heaven who are hostile to King Li Tian will not become suspicious? Things will change by then. Have you ever thought about what the situation will be like?"

"Why do you think that the demon monkey will keep talking to us if we don't withdraw our troops? What if there is an emergency? He is a demon. Don't forget! Will a demon care about the life and death of his companions? Will he care about other people in Huaguo Mountain? The life and death of monsters? If something happens to the King of Heaven, can you bear this responsibility?"

"Stop making noise——!" Nezha, who had been silent until now, suddenly roared, and the whole world fell silent.

Everyone looked at him, watching him stare down at the exquisite pagoda in his hand, blinking his crystal clear eyes. Watch him stand up slowly and walk towards the cabin door step by step with the gun in hand.

When he reached the cabin door, he stopped and whispered sideways: "Stop arguing, it's my fault. If I had returned to the ship early, this wouldn't have happened. Give me a day and I'll give it a try. Look. Can it be solved?"

After that, he raised his legs and stepped into the cabin door.

The deck of the battleship was so quiet that only the whistling of the wind was left. Everyone stared blankly at the hatch where Nezha left.

After walking blankly through the long and narrow passageway, he entered his room and closed the door heavily.

There was a loud noise behind him, and he immediately collapsed on the ground, covering his face, as if all his strength had been taken away.

In terms of appearance, Nezha looks like a beautiful child under ten years old. Lotus root people have no gender and will not grow up. Even their character can only stay in the infant stage.

That was the unbearable past of Chentangguan, when my father personally handed him over to the Dragon King of the Four Seas who came to seek revenge.

A seven-year-old child cuts off the flesh to return to his mother and the bones to his father.

This is his eternal pain. For this reason, under the mediation of a group of immortals, he and his father have had a distant relationship for thousands of years, and he was reluctant to call him "Dad". Even now, he can chat and laugh with his original enemy, the Dragon King of the Four Seas, and even have a good time with his original victim, Ao Bing, but he still can't let go.

It has been a thousand years, no matter how Li Jing tries to make up for it, he will never be able to make up for it.

Nezha never thought of forgiving him.

But he really wanted to use himself to repay Li Jing just now. He really wanted to change, from the bottom of his heart.

Fighting the monkey, he knew the monkey would not kill him, so he acted willfully again. He didn't obey the order and returned to the ship, and the father showed up to clean up his mess as usual.

This is an extremely common thing, why did it become like this?

As a result, he was captured and returned to the ship safely.

You have already cut off your bones and returned them to your father, do you still owe him again?

"No! We must save him! We must... we must save him!" He muttered to himself with his eyes widened.

…

Lu Liuguai hurried into the alchemy room, walked all the way through the main building and the backyard to Yang Chan's door.

Seeing that the door was ajar, Lu Liuguai opened the door and rushed in without even bothering to knock.

"Nine...nine heads..."

Lu Liuguai was completely stunned because he saw that besides Yang Chan, there was another person in the room - Yang Jian.

At this time, Yang Jian was sitting on the wooden chair next to the round table in the room. His cold and indifferent gaze completely shocked Lu Liuguai with just one glance.

The Roaring Sky Dog, which transformed into a dog form, slipped out from behind the door, sniffed Lu Liuguai, and looked up, his eyes filled with contempt.

…

In the attic, in the living room on the middle floor, Monkey and Nine-Headed Insect sat cross-legged opposite each other, and Yi Su, who had her long hair tied up, was obediently making tea at the side.

This is a small room, somewhat similar in style to Subhuti's Hall of Concentration, except that it lacks the bookshelves and hanging calligraphy and paintings on the walls, making it more simple.

Since setting up this living room, the monkey has basically never been able to pass anyone. It can even be said that today is the first time I use it. The main reason is that the people who can directly enter the Huaguoshan Demon City now are either our own people or the group of disciples and brothers from the Monkeys in the Sanxing Cave of Xianyue, so they have no use here at all.

Hydra is the first guest received here.

As soon as he entered the door, or to be precise, as soon as he entered the city, the Hydra's eyes kept turning and never stopped, and it was still the same now.

The gaze finally landed on Yi Su's face, and he opened his mouth slightly as if he wanted to praise him, but then suddenly remembered something and swallowed it back.

These days, it is relatively rare to go to other people's homes and compliment a female family member's beauty. If the complimenter is also a powerful demon king, it will create some bad associations and think that he has an agenda.

The most important thing is that from the first meeting, Nine-Headed Insect always felt that there was some hostility in the monkey's eyes, and the hostility became even stronger after he praised the wind chime.

After Yi Su brewed the tea and brought it to the two of them, he quietly stepped away. Nine-Headed Chong lowered his head and took a sip of tea before saying with a smile: "Good tea!"

"Good tea?" Monkey smiled faintly, his eyes still staring at the Nine-Headed Insect quietly: "It's just ordinary tea, how can it be called good tea?"

Slowly putting the tea cup down, the Nine-Headed Insect chirped and said, "As long as it's true, it's good tea."

As he spoke, he reached out and knocked on the floor: "This floor is also real."

The monkey remained silent.

The nine-headed insect looked up at the simple carvings on the ceiling again: "The carvings on the top must be real."

The monkey remained silent.

The nine-headed insect chuckled again: "I'm so envious. I found that everything in your city is real. The feelings are almost the same as in a human city. These monsters are homeless and precarious all day long. How can you give them such a place? , let alone fight against the heavenly army together, even if they die, many of them should be willing to do so?"

The monkey smiled lightly and said casually: "Brother Jiutou, are you kidding me that this demon city is so simple?"

The Nine-Headed Insect still looked around: "How can you say it's a joke? It's envy. Which monster doesn't want to live in a place like this?"

"The environment here is much worse than that of Demon King Jiao's original Evil Dragon City. Could it be that Brother Jiutou has never been there?"

"I've been there before, but I don't feel as comfortable staying there as you do here. So I just took a look and left. The most important thing is that I'm not familiar with the black dragon, and I don't want to get to know him."

As he spoke, he picked up the tea cup and took a sip.

Monkey suddenly said expressionlessly: "Not familiar? That Brother Jiutou is really loyal."

"What do you say?" The nine-headed insect raised his eyelids slightly and looked at the monkey.

"Isn't it? I don't know him well, and he risked his life to save him." Monkey stared at the Nine-Headed Insect, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said slowly: "A few days ago, I heard that the Six Demon King was ambushed in Hezhou, Xiniu. He was the Nine-Headed Brother. He got out of danger only by helping me.”

"You are very concerned about the Six Demon King."

"If you are the master of the Huaguo Mountain, how can you not pay attention to the news from other places?"

"What?" Nine-Headed Insect licked his lips, raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked slowly: "Do you still have a holiday with the Six Demon Kings?"

"It's an old story. It's just a trivial matter." The monkey laughed.

Hydra still couldn't see any special expression changes on the monkey's face, but he had already vaguely guessed the source of the monkey's hostility.

He lowered his head and sipped tea silently again, and he quickly finished the small amount of tea.

Seeing this, Yi Su quietly walked over and filled the tea cup with water.

Reaching out to touch the warm porcelain, the Nine-Headed Insect slowly sighed: "It's just a small thing. Let's forget all the grudges with a smile. In these days, no matter the big demon or small demon king, they are all chased everywhere by the heavenly army, acting as monsters." It’s not easy to get along. If we still fight each other, wouldn’t we die faster?”

The monkey asked softly: "I just want to know that Brother Jiutou 'passed' my Huaguo Mountain together with the Six Demon Kings."

The Nine-Headed Insect's expression suddenly froze. (To be continued...)
