The Monkey King

At night, after dinner, the monkey sat blankly at the entrance of the cave and watched the three warships in the distance illuminated by flames in the sky.

Under the battleship, a series of military camps have been set up, flags are fluttering, and several layers of defense nets inside and outside have been opened.

The firelight illuminated the upright figures.

There was a bustle outside the camp, and countless monks gathered together, all of them eager to go to heaven to become a general.

From time to time, the whine of wild beasts was heard, which made the monkey feel palpitated.

It must be that the monsters captured by Heaven are used as props to select new generals. They will continue to fight with different monks until they die. Heaven has always used this most direct way to identify the strength of Taoist cultivators and thus give them appropriate positions.

The monkey could even imagine how helpless the pair of eyes looked out from the cage.

As for whether these monsters really committed the unforgivable sin, no one cares.

However, regardless of whether you are an enlightened person or a practitioner, as long as you are selected by the heaven and join the military of the heavenly army, you will be able to receive incense and offerings from the mortal world. You must know that living in the heavenly palace has more abundant spiritual energy. One day in the sky and one year on the earth itself extends the life span by 365 times.

And if you achieve military merit, you may even fly up a branch and become a phoenix, and be given peaches and fine wine to extend your life. In this way, having the status of an immortal or a god is only a matter of time.

As for the risks, in the past thousand years, no one except Yang Jian has ever been able to defeat the Heavenly Court. Even if it is really unfortunate that the body dies, as long as the heaven is still standing, it can also be given some blessings in the next life through reincarnation...

Who can give up such an opportunity? Naturally, everyone flocks to them.

Of course, it is not easy to be selected. Although Kunlun Mountain is the military camp of Heavenly Court and the source of Heavenly Court's troops, there are only five million Taoist disciples in Kunlun Mountain. It seems that one can choose one from five, but in fact it is not.

The service period of a heavenly soldier, even if he has not performed any meritorious service and has not been extended, can reach tens of thousands of years. Therefore, Heavenly Court will generally screen out soldiers only when there are losses.

The millions of troops in Heaven were selected through numerous screenings over tens of thousands of years.

This time Yang Jian defeated the Heavenly Court, and in the end he achieved this major event in the world of immortality. Looking at the festive scene in front of him, Monkey suddenly felt extremely ironic.

As for the illusory heavenly generals, although the heavenly court has already had regulations, as long as you reach the third level of the God Refining Realm, you can participate in the selection of the heavenly generals, but that is only the minimum standard.

The fact is that the Heavenly Army is more keen on promoting Heavenly Soldiers who have served for many years and have military merits. Every time a vacancy arises, it will be filled naturally, leaving very few places in the mortal world.

Come to think of it, this must be the reason why Wang Luqi is so attracted to him.

However, that is all a human matter. No matter how good the opportunity is, the monkey is a monster and has nothing to do with him.

Looking up at the starry sky, the monkey sighed deeply, with a hint of fatigue in his eyes.

When he first stepped into Xianyue Sanxing Cave, he only knew that the Taoist disciples treated him differently, but he never thought about it.

Now that I think about it, why do they always talk about Ling Yunzi being associated with goblins... It turns out that outside the Xianyue Sanxing Cave, there is a situation where humans and demons are incompatible.

Ling Yunzi only called himself an old friend twice, but did not mention that he was a disciple of Subhuti. Perhaps it was for the sake of Xie Yue Sanxing Cave's face.

Even those Taoist disciples dared to call monkeys "monkeys" without restraint when facing the jade tripod... Come to think of it, this concept has already been deeply rooted in people's hearts.

Thinking of this, the monkey couldn't help but laugh bitterly.

It seems that I may have to re-evaluate my future that is still out of reach.

Originally, the monkey thought that if he didn't cause trouble, no one would do it.

But is this really the case?

I think of the Sun Wukong in "Journey to the West" as a troublemaker. He really doesn't cause trouble at all times, but occasionally he hangs out with a group of gods when he is calm, and he has been misled. I thought nothing would happen if I didn't show up.

Because we know that condition A leads to outcome B, we naively think that without condition A, there would be no outcome B.

But I don’t know that there is not only one reason leading to the same ending.

In the future, we need to be more cautious.

In the distance, the green leaves on a tree moved slightly, and the monkey's eyes slowly turned sideways.

Soon, a person fell down from the tree, Shi Yuxuan.

After seeing the person clearly, the monkey looked up at the stars again with an expressionless expression.

Walking to a place two feet away from the monkey, Shi Yuxuan lowered her head and cupped her hands and said, "Fellow Taoist, I'm here to say thank you."

"Revenge?" Monkey smiled faintly.

Shi Yuxuan shook her head and said: "I have been searching everywhere for several months, but there is no evidence... It's just that the senior brother admitted it himself under my pressure."

"As long as you admit it yourself, the infatuated woman deserves justice." The monkey lowered his head and smiled with some relief.

"It's a pity that there is no evidence. Even if he admits it, I can't help him."

Hearing this, the monkey's smile couldn't help but turn into a bitter smile. He raised his head and looked at the starry sky, his eyes were a little dull: "It's nothing to do with him... He died unjustly because of infatuation, and he was heartbroken and free. Haha. The world is really innocent. If it weren't for me, I would be Kunlun. Stranger, I can kill him for you and avenge your junior sister. It’s a pity..."

In the end, power speaks for itself. If you have power, you don't need reason or bullshit evidence.

If he is already the Monkey King with boundless power, even if he really kills people in Kunlun Mountain, what can Master Taiyi do to him?

Thinking about it, the monkey couldn't help but smile bitterly.

He was already filled with sadness, but now his expression was even more lonely. Even Shi Yuxuan was a little surprised, thinking that this monster monkey had only met my junior sister once, why was he so interested in her?

"But... now that he has admitted it, I am not afraid of wrongly blaming a good person. In the past few days, I have secretly let out the news, saying that the senior brother and my junior sister Yu He have had an affair and have been secretly engaged for life. There have been rumors about this before. , and now after my troubles, it has become known to everyone. Even though it hurts Junior Sister’s reputation, my poor Junior Sister Yu He must not blame me even if she knows about it.”

"Oh?" Monkey slowly turned his face: "What kind of trick is this?"

"My fellow Taoist does not know that the selection this time is from the Tianhe Navy of Marshal Tianpeng. In terms of treatment and opportunities, they are all top-notch. My senior brother is already in the God Refining Realm, so he is just in line. The standard of a junior general. This time he walked up and down, determined to win. However, Marshal Tianpeng was very afraid of men and women. This matter has long been known to everyone, and it has been established as a selection rule. If the Heavenly Army accepts the senior brother, this matter will be spread again According to the ears of Marshal Tianpeng, even ten heads of officials who select generals are not enough. In this way..."

At this point, she smiled lightly, a little sad and a little bitter, and gritted her teeth and said: "Even if I can't make him pay with his life, I will make him pay the price!"

"Refining God Realm?" Monkey turned his eyes slightly to look at her and asked, "I think you only have the cultivation level of Naishen Realm. If you are discovered doing such things, you may be in danger."

Shi Yuxuan gritted her teeth and said, "Even if my body is broken into pieces, I still want to seek some justice for my miserable junior sister."

"It would be great if you are enlightened." The monkey stood up slowly, holding his stick.

"In addition..." Shi Yuxuan said hesitantly: "When I come here this time, I also want to ask fellow Taoists to leave Kunlun Mountain as soon as possible."

The monkey didn't answer, just listened quietly.

"When I was questioning Senior Brother this time, I mentioned that Taoist friend you had seen him quarreling with my junior sister in the forest... I'm going to make it difficult for him to get into the military. He will hold a grudge in the future, and I'm afraid that Taoist friend will be killed. And held a grudge.”

The monkey stretched out his hand to wipe his face and said calmly: "It's okay. If he wants to hold a grudge, let him hold a grudge. I am a demon monkey. Even if no one holds a grudge, there will be people who come to the door. One more is not more, one less is not more. Although I am only at the God Refining Stage, but with my current level of cultivation, it is more than enough to hit him at the God Refining Stage. He can't do anything to me."

"My fellow Taoist has a strange cultivation level. Yu Xuan has fought with you before, so he naturally knows it. But he is not afraid of the obvious, only the dark. That Wang Luqi is well-known for being cautious and cunning. It is better to be more careful. .”

Monkey pursed his dry lips and said, "I know. What's dark is what's dark. You'd better be more careful. If he attacks you, I'm afraid you won't be able to withstand both attacks."

After saying goodbye and saying goodbye, Shi Yuxuan turned around and left. The monkey continued to stand there and looked at the suspended battleship in the distance, muttering: "After all, I couldn't help saying it and got into some trouble. But this Zhu Bajie It’s a bit surprising that things between men and women are taboo. Didn’t he just marry Chang’e and be cast into reincarnation as a pig fetus? Didn’t he still give up and become the son-in-law of Gao Laozhuang in the mortal world? "

There are indeed many differences between this world and the Journey to the West that I know.

Thinking about it, he turned around and walked into the cave, found Yuding, and asked: "Brother Yuding, does he have some secret skills for sneaking?"
