The Monkey King

The news that Bi Mawen was spending a lot of money in the treasury quickly spread throughout heaven.

In the Miluo Palace on the 35th level of the sky, more than ten bamboo slips emitted faint light and were suspended around the white-haired old man.

"A Xuanwu Heavy Hammer, a Nine-Heaven Black Halberd, a Spirit-Applied Moonlight Bow, a pair of Fuhu Spirit-Wing Swords... a Tingchao Ling Luo Yi, a set of Xuanhun Taiyi Armor... One nameplate, ten soul-enchanting stones, one Tuotianyu, five taels of Xinqincao, eight taels of Oolong Shishi leaves... a Zhuhe purple gold hairpin, a high-grade night-light pearl..."

After carefully reading all the bamboo slips from beginning to end, the white-haired old man couldn't help but laugh.

"Master, why are you laughing?" the boy kneeling in front of him asked in a low voice.

The white-haired old man stroked his long beard and said: "This monkey has not been tamed. It is not strong enough, so it chooses to restrain itself, but on the other hand, it is still making careful preparations."

The boy hesitated for a moment, then cupped his hands and said, "My disciple is stupid, please let me know clearly."

Pointing to some of the bamboo slips, the white-haired old man said: "Don't mention those materials and miscellaneous items. Look at these, they are all weapons and armor. The monkey already has two pieces of Dinghai Shenzhen and black dragon leather armor. Treasures, buying so many high-grade weapons and armors, it is impossible to buy them for personal use. To put it bluntly, he is probably preparing them for the monsters in Huaguoshan. If they are really tamed, why do they need these? ?”

"What the master said is true." The boy frowned slightly and said, "But there is something unclear, disciple. Where did the monkey-headed genius come from so many golden spirits in such a short period of time? Could it be... …Already robbed the treasury without knowing it?”

"How can it be so easy to steal the treasury of Heavenly Court?" The white-haired old man waved his hand, stroking his long beard and said: "A discerning person will know this matter at a glance, so there is no need to worry too much. All along, the teacher is most uncertain about , that is, whether the monkey has been tamed. Now it is confirmed that it has not been tamed..."

After a slight pause, he smiled faintly, looked at the boy and said, "I would like to find a chance to meet him."

…

In the inner room of the Lingxiao Hall, the rolling curtain remained motionless in the posture of bowing and cupping hands. A pair of eyelids were slightly raised, carefully watching the Jade Emperor sitting in front of him.

Stroking his long beard with one hand, the Jade Emperor slowly tightened his other hand and said lightly: "This monkey head is really fearless. The gold spirit looted from the Tianhe navy actually dares to blatantly Take it out and use it.”

"Your Majesty, do you... order him to hand over all the items he purchased and the remaining gold essence?"

The Jade Emperor lowered his head slightly and asked, "Do you know how much the total amount is?"

"this……"

"Everyone can guess the origin of this Hericium Golden Spirit, but who knows how many there are? There has never been an exact number for this thing. When the time comes, no one can tell if we pay more or less, and the result will be different. It's a confusing account. Besides, if it was raised when recruiting people, it would be simple. Now that times have changed, mentioning it again will only make people laugh." The Jade Emperor paused slightly, caressed the dragon case and sighed helplessly: "This matter, Just pretend not to know."

Rolling the curtain took a deep breath, then cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, although this monster monkey is restless in heaven, it has not caused any big trouble yet. But I heard that the monster monkey's subordinates gathered in Huaguo Mountain for several people. Millions of monsters are armed with arrogance and arrogance, and they often cross the border to provoke the Tianhe navy. The items purchased by the monster monkeys this time are probably also prepared for the Huaguoshan monsters... The previous battle at Huaguoshan had already defeated the Tianhe navy. The army has suffered heavy losses. If we let it continue to develop, it will be even more difficult for us to suppress it in the future, even if all our heavenly elites come out. The old gentleman's Taoism is profound, and he protects the monster monkey. Naturally, I can't figure it out. His intention. But judging from the current situation, in the long run, this monster monkey will definitely become a scourge to heaven. Your Majesty, it is better to make plans in advance."

Seeing that the Jade Emperor did not express his position, Roller Blind continued: "I do have a plan to eliminate this hidden danger, but I don't know whether to talk about it or not."

The Jade Emperor glanced at the rolling curtain and said, "Tell me."

"Now Laojun's attitude is unclear. Although he has not explicitly said that he will protect this monster monkey, he has not said that he cannot touch this monster monkey. I think that as long as the monster monkey causes enough trouble, Laojun may not be able to forcefully protect it. "

As he spoke, he looked at the Jade Emperor carefully.

The Jade Emperor stroked his long beard and sighed: "How could I not have thought about this? The monkey head hurt Yue Lao just after it went up to the sky. If it was true that he had the arrogance at that time, the incident would have happened by now. But the time of going to heaven On that day, Laojun personally went to Guanghan Palace to pick up the Xian'e wind chime that went up to heaven with him. I don't know if Laojun talked to him about anything. Since then, the demon monkey has stayed behind closed doors and restrained himself. A lot. Even the matter involving the Giant Spirit God was caused by the Giant Spirit God himself. Under such circumstances, it may not be that easy to wait for him to make a big mistake."

"I think we can start from the position of the demon monkey." Rolling the curtain said.

"Position?" The Jade Emperor's eyes suddenly narrowed into slits: "Although he has been appointed as Bi Ma Wen, the original Xian'e should still take care of everything in the Royal Horse Supervisor, right?"

The roller curtain said softly: "Your Majesty, no matter how messed up Bi Mawen's position is, he will never cause a huge disaster. But if you can give him the position of manager of the Peach Garden..."

At this point, the roller shutter stopped.

"Let the monkey manage the peach garden?" Hearing this, the Jade Emperor burst into laughter and said, "It's really hard to think of anything wrong."

Seeing the Jade Emperor's beaming smile, the curtains immediately relaxed slightly.

But at this moment, the Jade Emperor said meaningfully: "Did you come up with this idea yourself, or did Tianfu help you come up with it?"

After saying this, Juan Ye was so frightened that he knelt down and shouted: "Your Majesty atones for his sins. I deserve death for my sins!"

…

On the night when he returned from the treasury, the monkey used a jade slip to inform Brahmin Jiedi's disciples and asked him to help transport everything back to Huaguo Mountain.

The other party readily agreed, but it was difficult to determine the time. After all, for now, it is not possible for a Brahmin monk to openly interact with monkeys. I guess in the end I will have to use a passing opportunity to set up a trap and sneak things away like last time.

As a result, those things can only be temporarily piled in the warehouse.

In the following days, the monkey naturally stayed behind closed doors and lived a monotonous life.

It was already the twenty-first day of Monkey's tenure in Heaven. Five more days passed, and on the twenty-sixth day, Yun Shuang, who went to the Heavenly Court's Internal Affairs Department to reconcile accounts as usual, brought back a piece of important news—— Someone petitioned the Jade Emperor to promote the monkey to the position of manager of the Peach Garden.

In fact, there is not much difference between the Pantaoyuan steward and Bi Mawen. They are both low-ranking official positions. But the key is to "let a monkey see the peach orchard".

Not surprisingly, this suggestion was strongly opposed by the Queen Mother of the West, including Taibai Jinxing. It is said that the pile of remonstrances and memorials on the Jade Emperor's Dragon Case is as high as one person.

That Pantaoyuan is the lifeblood of the Queen Mother of the West. Is it worth letting a monkey see it?

However, Heaven has its own rules, and how to use flat peaches is indeed within the authority of the Queen Mother of the West. But when it comes to personnel appointments in heaven, especially the appointment of a small fruit farmer, if the Jade Emperor wants to force the appointment, even if there is support from a large number of immortal families, the Queen Mother of the West will not be able to help the Jade Emperor.

When they heard the news, everyone in the Royal Horse Prison was in an uproar. The monkey's first reaction was - the Supreme Being is causing trouble again.

Isn't it true that you are going against the grain twice? If you do this, won't you miss out once?

Thinking about it, he couldn't help but feel anxious.

Although he is not the monkey who was greedy for peaches in the original version, it at least means that Taishang's pace is accelerating and he has less and less time left.

Even if he doesn't want to rebel by then, I'm afraid he will find a way to force him to rebel.

As time went by, the news spread more and more widely, making it known to everyone in heaven. Some people complained that Ren Bi Mawen had only been in the position for less than a month, and it was inappropriate to be promoted without any merit. Some people were silent, waiting to see the monkey eat the peach and get into trouble. Some people gloated over the misfortune, waiting to see what happened to the Queen Mother of the West's flat peach...

But no matter what, no one doubted whether the Jade Emperor would really accept such a ridiculous suggestion, as if the imperial edict was already on the way.

Everyone in the Royal Horse Prison began to prepare to practice for the monkey. But word after word passed on for a long time, but the imperial edict was still not coming.

The Jade Emperor was also surprised that he neither approved nor rejected the request to let the monkey be the steward of the Pantaoyuan, and just put it off.

Hearing the news, Monkey seemed to have taken a reassurance.

Obviously, this was not the Supreme Being's idea, but the Jade Emperor was testing it and waiting for the Supreme Being to express his stance. As long as the Supreme Being does not express his position for one day, he will not be transferred.

In the blink of an eye, in this long wait, the thirty-fifth day of God’s tenure has arrived.

Early in the morning that day, a boy in white rode a crane to the Royal Horse Prison. He handed a copy of the post to Yueshuang and warned: "My master has told me, please be sure to hand it to Lord Bi Mawen."

After saying that, he left in a hurry.

Yueshuang didn't know the boy, but based on his attire, he could tell that he must be from a disciple of some great immortal. Naturally, he didn't dare to neglect this post. He put down what he was doing and hurried to the monkey's room to present it to the monkey with his own hands.

At this time, the monkey, who was almost sick, was half lying on the couch and yawning out of boredom. As soon as she reached out and took the post from Yueshuang, the wind chime on the side turned sideways and asked, "What's written on it?"

The monkey cleared his throat, opened the post and read aloud: "The way of mountains and rivers lies in ingenuity, the way of the sun and moon lies in nobility, the way of all living beings, the world of mortals is gone, the way of a lonely boat, a river is drifting... What the hell is this? Something? It’s really a mouthful.”

Monkey was too lazy to continue reading and skipped to the final signature. He immediately sat up with excitement.

"Yuanshi Tianzun..."

The wind chime was startled and quickly turned back to look at the monkey.

Looking at the wind chime, the monkey said blankly: "He wants to... invite me to attend a lecture at Miluo Palace tomorrow." r1152
