The Monkey King

"I heard that Evil Dragon Pond is not a good place. If I go there alone, I'm afraid..."

Short Mouth did not continue speaking, but quietly squinted at the monkey, but he soon found that the monkey's face was expressionless, and he was just walking along with the little fox demon.

This monkey is always so cold and hard to guess. Only when it looks at the little fox demon does it have a hint of tenderness in its eyes.

This troubled Short Mouth.

At the beginning, he would always guess what was going on in the monkey's mind, but he always guessed wrong.

Come to think of it, I just said a lot of nonsense again.

But if he guessed everything wrong, then why did the monkey stay in this team?

I don’t understand, I really don’t understand.

After silently following the monkey for a long time, he finally couldn't help but prepare to get out of the way: "Then, I'll go investigate first."

"Short mouth."

"Um?"

"In the past few days, be careful in all aspects. If you fall to the ground, try not to be too far away from me."

"Ah?" Short Mouth was confused when he heard it, but looking at Monkey's expression, it didn't seem like he was just talking nonsense. After a moment of hesitation, he responded: "I know."

He turned around and ran forward a few steps and flew into the sky.

Looking at the short-billed figure soaring in the distance, the monkey sighed lightly.

An uneventful day passed, and at night, the team finally stopped at the foot of a hill.

The woods here are quite dense, making it a good place to hide. However, Short Mouth brought some not-so-good news, that is, there is a grassland ahead.

Hundreds of monsters are walking unobstructed on the grassland. Not to mention the carefully searching sky patrol generals, it is not difficult to spot any cultivator flying from the sky.

When he heard the news, the old white ape seemed a little depressed. The jackal and the old cow looked like they were laughing.

"If we travel during the night, how long will it take?"

"If we go at the current rate, it will take at least three days."

"What if we take a detour?"

Short Mouth didn't answer, but looking at his expression, Old White Ape already roughly knew the answer.

This meeting can be said to be the most harmonious one since a meeting was needed to finalize things, but it was fruitless.

Until late at night, the monkey kept hearing the heavy sigh of the old white ape not far away.

Quietly sitting up, the monkey slowly pulled out his hand that was tightly held by the little fox demon lying beside him, and walked around a small path. After making sure that the jackal and the old cow were both asleep, he carefully He came to Short Mouth, who never slept at night, and patted his shoulder.

"What are you doing?" Short Mouth, who was half asleep, suddenly widened his terrifying eyes.

"Come here." The monkey turned and left.

"Ah? Oh." Short Mouth quickly got up and followed.

The two quietly left the camp, but only walked a short distance before the monkey found a comfortable place to sit down.

Sitting in his position, through the moonlight he could vaguely see the old white ape tossing and turning and the little fox demon sleeping soundly.

Short Mouth sat next to him: "What's the matter?"

"I have something to ask you."

"ask me?"

This is a rare thing.

The monkey looked at his face, looked at him calmly, and said, "Can you tell me more clearly about the Evil Dragon Pond?"

"Ah?" Duanzui was confused at first, but a smile soon appeared on his face. The monkey seems to be a little bit normal at last.

"I actually don't know much, I just heard it all."

"Just tell me what you know."

The short-mouthed man laughed twice, blinked his big scary eyes, and said slowly: "Every once in a while, the Heavenly Court will attack the evil dragons in the Evil Dragon Pond, basically at least once a year. The battles are said to be very tragic. . Some of the goblins who have just come to seek refuge will be incorporated into the stormtroopers...Only those who can survive the war will be truly recruited as full members."

"ah?"

Short Mouth swallowed twice and continued: "Of course, not all goblins who come to seek refuge will be sent to join the stormtroopers. Those who are favored by the evil dragon, including the goblin's personal followers, will be directly absorbed. "

"Oh? There are also these rules. Hahahaha." The monkey suddenly laughed, and his short mouth was incomprehensible for a while.

"In a place like this, there are so many fairies flocking to it?"

"Because everyone only knows that it has been unable to be attacked by the Heavenly Court for a long time, but they don't know that it has such a thing... Maybe it's because those who didn't accept it probably didn't survive. My friend the toad spirit is lucky. Which goblin, Don’t you want a safe cave where you don’t have to worry about being discovered by sky patrols all day long?”

From a certain perspective, although there are many fairies scattered on the earth, their information channels are extremely limited. Mainly because they are simply unable to establish a social society like humans.

"I probably understand." Monkey nodded silently.

Blinking his eyes twice, he continued with a short mouth: "So, I can only ask you to go with me. Lao Niu and the others may also be directly absorbed, but I definitely can't do it. And you, definitely can. All along, I also have selfish motives for staying in the team. Otherwise, the risk of flying there by myself is actually lower than following the team. But what can I do when I arrive? Evil Dragon Pond definitely needs to recruit soldiers, but they also need stormtroopers. And I... ...I'm afraid I can only get the stormtroopers. Originally, I was hoping that the old white ape would be favored by the evil dragon. After all, he is a rare enlightened demon cultivator, and it was I who suggested that he go to the Evil Dragon Pond."

After a pause, Short Mouth looked towards the foot of the mountain.

Under the flickering moonlight, with his eyesight he could clearly see the old white ape tossing and turning and sighing.

"But, seeing him take in the little demon like this, I suddenly felt that we would never reach the Evil Dragon Pond."

Monkey patted Short Mouth's shoulder: "I understand, go back to sleep."

"You know I can't sleep at night. Owls hate this kind of schedule of moving during the day and sleeping at night." Short Mouth sighed helplessly: "Jackals probably feel the same way as me."

"Then go back and rest."

Short Mouth thought for a while, and wanted to know the meaning of what the monkey said during the day. But he felt that the monkey was clearly trying to distract him, so he shook his head boredly, spread his wings and flew towards the camp.

After Short Mouth left, Monkey took out a piece of jade slip, input his spiritual power, and put it against his lips.

"Yang Chan."

After a long while, the jade slips vibrated slightly, and Yang Chan's confused voice came from inside: "What are you doing? Can you not use the jade slips late at night? Do you think everyone doesn't need to sleep like you?"

"Do you know about Evil Dragon Pond?"

"Evil Dragon Pond? The territory of that evil dragon? What? Have you offended him? Do you want me to find the three-headed dragon to deal with him?"

"Can you?"

"Well...as long as I run to the Evil Dragon Pond and let them besiege me, the three-headed dragon will probably roll out on its own." She laughed, and the sound came through the jade slips, clear and sweet.

Monkey also smiled faintly, knowing that Yang Chan was just joking.

The three-headed dragon is Yang Jian's three-pointed two-edged sword. She was asked to ask her brother for help. Based on her personality, I'm afraid she wouldn't do such a thing.

"Can you help me find out the details of this evil dragon?"
