The Monkey King

In the heaven, the glow seems to be illusive, and among the clouds and mist, a huge stone is looming. This article was first published by

On the top of this unusual boulder covered with green plants is a stone table. On both sides of the stone table are two stone benches, with a white-haired old man and a black-haired old man sitting respectively.

The black-haired old man was the one who had played chess with the Supreme Being before. As for the white-haired old man, he had a childlike appearance and a kind face. He was also dressed in white clothes and his whole body was bathed in milky white brilliance. If a mortal saw it, he would be so dizzy that he would not be able to open his eyes.

The two of them drank tea in silence for a long time. The black-haired old man stroked his long beard and said, "I heard that two immortal ladies were transferred to Tushita Palace recently."

"Oh?" The white-haired old man sighed and took a sip of tea, and said calmly: "This is a strange thing. Tushita Palace, I'm afraid there has never been a female child since the palace was built? It's rare that senior brother thought of adding something to Tushita Palace. Femininity. Hahahaha."

"If that's the case, it's a good thing." The black-haired old man looked up at the glass-like sky and said, "This world has not changed for tens of millions of years, and it is really boring. It's rare for him to be so interested. I'm afraid there is another reason."

After saying that, those eyes as dark as the abyss slowly slanted towards the white-haired old man.

The white-haired old man took a leisurely sip of tea, and then said, "Junior brother, what do you think the reason is?"

"In the past few days, Dongsheng Shenzhou's demon-suppression war has been going through twists and turns. Senior brother, do you know?"

The white-haired old man raised his head and seemed to think for a moment, and said doubtfully: "I have heard something, but I haven't thought about it carefully. Why, is there any mystery in this war?"

"This..." The black-haired old man paused his tea cup and said impatiently: "If senior brother says so, we won't be able to continue talking today."

The white-haired old man heard this. Hehe laughed. Said: "How can junior brother be so impetuous? Senior brother is just joking."

After a slight pause, the white-haired old man said, "Junior brother, have you ever asked senior brother for advice on this matter?"

"I asked casually. It's the same as the 'Way of Heaven', but it's just a twist." The black-haired old man replied casually.

"Since Senior Brother said it's no different, then it should be no different. You and I have already retired to seclusion, so why bother with this leisure time? When you have time, let's comprehend the numbers of heaven and earth together. Wouldn't it be better?"

The black-haired old man stopped talking completely.

After chatting briefly for a few more words and drinking half a pot of tea, the black-haired old man left without interest.

After sending the black-haired old man away, the white-haired old man lowered his head and counted his fingers. The smile on his face faded slightly and he turned around and flew away.

In just a moment, the white-haired old man had arrived in front of a simple palace. A boy quickly came up to greet him, bowed and said, "Welcome Master."

The white-haired old man passed by the boy without saying a word and walked quickly into the inner hall. He called another boy and said in a low voice: "I heard that there are two new maids in the Tusita Palace. Go and find out the origins of these two people. When did they become immortals? Who were they before they became immortals? What happened? Relatives and friends, who you studied under, who you have interacted with after becoming an immortal, what positions you have held, and what you have done, everything must be ascertained, and no mistakes can be made. At the same time, this matter must not be discussed with others!"

"Disciple, please obey your master's orders!"

…

In the Tushita Palace, a boy knelt respectfully in front of the Supreme Being.

"Did the young lady say anything when my master was away?"

"When I replied to the master, the young lady once mentioned 'monkey'."

"A reference to 'monkey'? How exactly?"

The boy lowered his head and took out a roll of bamboo slips from his sleeves, held it up with both hands, and said, "My disciple has recorded every word of what the young lady said. Please check it with the master."

Reaching out to take the bamboo slip, the Supreme Being opened it, glanced at it, rolled it up in a hurry, put it into his sleeve, and said, "I didn't say much."

"Replying to the master, the young lady seems to have forgotten many things and needs time to slowly remember them. Moreover, she may be a stranger here for the first time, so she doesn't speak much."

"Then talk to her more and help her remember things."

"Disciple, I obey."

"The matter of direct contact with her will be left to the two immortals, and you will only help from the side. All food and clothing expenses will be taken care of by you, and you must not neglect it. In addition, this matter must be strictly sealed and cannot be spread. Those two This immortal lady will not be allowed to leave Tushita Palace from now on." After a slight pause, the Supreme Master continued: "I still have important matters to do as a teacher. If I am not in the meantime, I will leave all the matters here to you. .”

"Disciple, you will live up to your master's instructions!" The boy bowed deeply. When he raised his head again, the prince had disappeared.

…

Huaguoshan.

Countless wounded soldiers in the underground city have been moved deep underground. The entire Huaguo Mountain is in chaos, and every monster is exhausted.

As the monkey's order was issued, the army began to abandon its original position and shrink, but it was not a defensive shrinkage, but a reorganization in preparation for an attack and a decisive battle.

When things have reached this point, it is the most correct thing for Huaguo Mountain to proactively seek a decisive battle and end the entanglement with the Tianhe navy as soon as possible.

However, even Monkey couldn't tell how much hope the successful annihilation of the entire Tianhe naval force would bring to Huaguoshan.

For most monsters, they don't even know what Huaguo Mountain is about to face. They only heard that it is an enemy more powerful than the Tianhe Navy. As for how powerful it is, they have no idea.

Of course, this is not because the monkey is hiding something from them. In fact, the monkey has made the order very clear, but most monsters still do not have a specific concept of the upcoming enemy.

After all, the current situation has already exceeded their imagination.

Not long ago, wasn't the Tianhe Navy, and even the Nantianmen Fleet before the Tianhe Navy, an invincible enemy in their eyes?

Although the war was brutal, and although they had not yet achieved a complete victory, they were able to withstand it, and the situation was developing in their favor.

In the past few days, didn’t the Tianhe Navy even launch an attack?

Over the years, under the leadership of Monkey, the monsters in Huaguo Mountain have been able to save themselves from danger no matter how powerful the enemy is. This has long been established in the hearts of most grassroots monsters - in their eyes, it seems that no matter what they encounter, Monkey will always be the best. Can be easily resolved. This makes the overall mood of the monsters in Huaguo Mountain still tend to be optimistic.

Of course, optimism does not mean laziness. Under the monkey's repeated orders, every monster was mobilized and prepared for the battle with full strength.

…

Amid the commotion, Feng Chime walked step by step through the long and dark passage, and the oncoming monsters passed her by, but they barely glanced at her.

Yes, now, she is just an idle person in Huaguoshan, who else would notice her?

In the past two days, she couldn't even see the monkey.

Walking back to his apartment in a daze, Feng Chime took a deep breath and reached out to push open the ajar door.

In the room, the Supreme Being was sitting at the long table and sighing over a pot of tea.

"I said, little girl, why don't you even have some decent tea in your room? Do you think it's easy for the old man to come all the way to tip you off? You don't even prepare tea. It's really unkind."

"Old sir, you haven't left yet?"

"Ouch, are you going to issue an eviction order?"

After being surprised, Feng Ling walked to the table step by step and sat down. He pouted and snatched the teapot from the Supreme Master's hand, poured himself a cup of tea, held the tea cup and complained: "He doesn't believe me. He asked Li Jing to run away." ...If he had believed in me then, he wouldn’t be like this now.”

"He doesn't believe in normality. It's not normal if he does."

"Why is it normal not to believe it?" Feng Chime raised his head and asked.

"Because, from any angle, it shouldn't be like this. Let alone him, no one in heaven would believe it. I guess even the Jade Emperor didn't expect it to be like this."

"Then why do you think this must be the case, old sir?" Feng Ling asked with a frown.

"Because...because..." The Supreme Being stroked his beard, laughed dryly, and said seriously: "Because I have no idea."

"Blow you." Feng Chime glared at the Supreme Leader and said, "It's just a blind cat bumping into a dead mouse. Even my master, Patriarch Subhuti, dare not say that he knows the future. You don't know the future?"

"How can your master compare with me?" The Supreme Master raised his head with a smile, causing Feng Ling to roll his eyes.

After sitting blankly for a long time, Fengchi slowly turned his eyes and asked: "Old sir, Huaguo Mountain...is it really going to be a disaster?"

"Well, maybe."

"Why is it possible again?"

"Didn't you say that I can't predict the future?" The Supreme Master glanced at the wind chime and said.

"You——!" Feng Chime suddenly stood up: "Old sir! If...if it really turns out to be like that, will you help me?"

The Supreme Master shrank and turned his back to Feng Chime, and said leisurely: "Didn't you say that your master is more powerful? Ask him for help."

"Old sir!" Feng Ling hurriedly walked around Taishang's body, stared into Taishang's eyes and said, "Will you help me?"

"Your master is more powerful..."

"He is more powerful, but... he won't help. If you want to help, you should have helped earlier. Since you haven't taken action, it means there is no point in looking for him. This is what the monkey said."

"Yeah, he's better, so you'd better go find him." After saying that, the Supreme Master turned around and continued to sigh at the tea.

Feng Chime was worried, so he had no choice but to say, "Okay, okay, you're more powerful, okay? Help me!"

The Supreme Being chuckled: "If I had said this earlier, it would have been fine."

"Then can you help me?"

"cannot."

"..."

"What's the matter?"

"How long have you been entertaining me?"

Feng Chime frowned, picked up the teapot and wanted to hit the Supreme Being on the head.

"No, no, no, no!" Taishang waved his hands quickly: "I just said that I can't help it, but I know people who can."

Feng Chime quickly stopped his hand and asked, "Who?"

"Jade Emperor."

Feng Ling's eyes suddenly narrowed into slits, and he asked suspiciously: "Will he agree to help?"

"Well... maybe. I'll invite him to have tea or something. Maybe he will agree once he's in a good mood."

"Bragging again!" Feng Ling said flatly. (To be continued...)
