The Monkey King

Chapter 88: Golden Essence

The big flag with the word "dragon" rustled in the wind.

On the towering city wall, which is six feet high and covered with thorns and spurs, rows of demon soldiers of different heights wear black armor and patrol back and forth carrying various weapons.

Behind the city wall is a series of buildings with a unique style. From a distance, they look like a wild beast roaring towards the sky.

There were bursts of noise in the city, as if it were a bustling human town.

When seeing this scene, the monkey noticed that the eyes of the old white ape standing aside were shining. It's not just him, whether it's a little demon, an old cow, a big horn, or a short beak, their eyes are all shining.

Perhaps, this is the habitat they pursue in their dreams.

In front of the city gate, several groups of monster soldiers lined up, carefully checking the scrolls handed over from the monsters entering the city. The leader of the monster generals would hold the scrolls and compare them in the sun from time to time.

The queue to enter the city was very long, but under the control of the demon soldiers, they maintained a very good order.

From time to time, you will hear a demon being dragged out of the team, howling and crying.

Their fate may be to be beaten, or they may be let go directly, but some may even be beaten to death. As for which one it is, it depends on the mood of the demon soldier.

Seeing this scene, the demons who were still lining up had different expressions on their faces, including regret, sympathy, fear... a mixture of emotions, but no matter which mood they were in, they could not hinder their determination to enter the city.

It was also unable to hinder Old White Ape's determination to enter the city.

I saw his old hands trembling, staring at the city gate intently, and then he collapsed with a groan and howled loudly.

To be precise, not only him, but also many little demons in the team are the same.

After going through hardships and narrow escapes, they finally arrived here, a place where they could live in the sun like human beings.

At this moment, even Lao Niu couldn't help but have red eyes.

The dream of a demon turns out to be so small.

The monkey looked extra calm. He vaguely felt that something was wrong here. He just stood aside and held the little fox demon and watched coldly. Tears burst into his eyes as he watched coldly, and they rushed towards the city gate, all the way. Cry and howl.

Before they could really approach the city gate, a group of demon soldiers quickly blocked them with weapons. The leader of the lizard spirit shouted loudly: "Where did the little demon come from! How dare you attack the Dragon City!"

Behind him, a handful of shining scimitars were unsheathed.

All the eyes around them looked at them with infinite contempt.

This lizard spirit is about seven feet tall, with a snake-like head covered with a helmet that looks like it will fall off at any time, and a long tail swinging behind it.

Seeing this scene, the demons calmed down and stepped back one by one.

But it was too late. The leader of the lizard spirit waved his hand: "Take it!"

Immediately, more demon soldiers came and quickly included the entire team. Even the monkey and the little fox demon who had just arrived were surrounded.

Looking at the spears with cold light, the monkey smiled helplessly. This scene was so similar to that of Kunlun Mountain.

The old white ape blinked his eyes and took two steps towards the lizard spirit with slight trembling: "Sir... Sir, we were so offensive just now. We didn't mean it."

The lizard spirit sneered and said, "If you don't care, can you attack the Dragon City?"

"We are new here and don't know the rules. Please show your respect, sir." The old white ape cupped his hands and smiled flatteringly. His mixed eyes couldn't help but look at the demon soldiers surrounding him.

Behind him, the little demons were already trembling in a huddle.

I woke up too quickly from this dream.

I saw the lizard spirit lowering his head and picking at his four-fingered hand, and said slowly: "Forget it, I've been here too, how can I not understand your feelings? It's just..."

He slowly raised his head and said with a smile: "It's not good for me and my brothers to fight in vain. If I hand you over, you may not be able to remember some meritorious deeds or something. Tell me, what should I do? ?Don’t make it difficult for me.”

After saying that, he laughed.

The old white ape's face suddenly turned pale.

The monkey's face turned black.

They all knew that this meant asking for a bribe.

But where can this extremely poor team find anything that can be bribed?

At this moment, the jade slip hidden in his waist shook slightly. The monkey covered it with his hand, picked it up and put it to his lips. Yang Chan's voice immediately came to mind.

"Monkey! The evil dragon you asked me to check out has some clues. It seems that it is not as simple as the outside world reports. It is not yet clear what the specific situation is. But in short, don't get close to the evil dragon pond yet!"

"You...said a bit late..."

"What? Have you arrived already? Are you okay? Hey! Tell me clearly! What's going on over there now!"

Ignoring Yang Chan anymore, the monkey quietly put the jade slip into his belt.

He felt it briefly, and judging from the demonic energy of the lizard spirit and the demon soldier, he could probably determine that the strength of the lizard spirit was slightly lower than that of Lao Niu. As for those demon soldiers, most of them are in the early stage of Nashen and have poor qualifications. Even short-mouthed ones can be easily dealt with.

In this situation, if you take action, the monkey is sure to pick them all.

But both Short Mouth and Lao Niu were injured, so if there was a real fight, the little demon on his side would also suffer some casualties. And it is estimated that there will be endless troubles.

Is it possible that after finally getting here, they have to escape from the Evil Dragon Pond and go back to face the Xun Tian General?

Seeing the monsters standing still, the lizard spirit became a little impatient: "Why, do you really want to stay in prison?"

The monkey secretly clenched the Xingyun stick in his hand and pointed at the short beak and big horn on the side.

He is not the kind of person who believes that he can explain things properly in prison. These demon soldiers might be even worse than the heavenly soldiers - it's really ironic.

The old white ape suppressed a smile from his wrinkled face: "Sir, look... we just arrived and we don't understand the rules..."

"You don't know the rules?" The lizard spirit snorted coldly and stretched out its long tongue twice: "If you don't understand the rules, does the gold spirit understand it? Don't tell me that you don't even understand the gold spirit!"

"Golden Essence..."

At this moment, Lao Niu was stunned for a moment, then quickly took out a small bag from his waist and trotted to the lizard spirit.

Reaching out to take the small bag handed over by Lao Niu, the lizard spirit opened the mouth of the bag doubtfully, poured it into his palm, and suddenly smiled.

"You are indeed sensible! You have a bright future!" He gave Lao Niu a thumbs up, turned around and greeted his demon soldiers: "It's okay, it's okay! Let's disperse!"

After that, he lowered his head and counted happily while walking back.

All the demon soldiers immediately put away their unsheathed weapons and stood back to where they were.

The contents of the bag looked like golden beans.

"What are those?" Short Mouth lying on Dajiao's back asked in a low voice.

"I...I don't know either." Lao Niu blinked and replied, "I saw that the jackal hid these every time he killed the general, so I hid a little."

"That's the gold essence." The old white ape standing in front said blankly: "That thing... can be used as money in heaven."

"Heaven..." The monkey narrowed his eyes and looked at the old white ape, but the old white ape just dodged and turned towards the tent that looked like a refugee camp on the side.

Evil Dragon City is surrounded by plains, a vast and endless plain with only a few trees sparsely distributed.

On the plain, there is a large area of ​​tents. These tents are made of cloth, and some are made of branches and leaves. They are unplanned and chaotic. They are so dark that they look like eczema on the plain.

In this tent, countless monsters of all kinds walk back and forth.

Maybe, that's where this team should go.

"At least, we have a safe nest, right?" Old White Ape is always so optimistic.

After entering the tent area and finding an open space to settle down, the old white ape asked the little monsters to follow the example of other monsters and find various materials to build their own tents, while he asked around for ways to enter the city.

The monkey also took action. The difference was that the monkey didn't care much about the way to enter the city. The monkey was more concerned about what kind of place this Dragon City was.

When night fell, the diligent little monsters had already built a fence and set up tents on their small territory, and all the monsters who had gone out also returned one by one.

The monkey was slightly startled when he saw the smoke rising from the camp that seemed to grow out of thin air.

It can be said that although this small site is made of branches and leaves, it looks dilapidated at first glance, but if you look closely, you will find the care everywhere.

After experiencing so much along the way, every little demon must now cherish this hard-won comfort, which they have exchanged for the lives of their companions.

Looking at those smiling faces, Monkey really couldn't bear to say anything.

When the old white ape came back, everyone started to eat.

The food is nothing more than wild vegetables dug from the surrounding areas. Because there are too many monsters here, the prey has long been extinct, and some carnivorous little monsters can only eat vegetarian food, including the little fox monster.

After dinner, the little monsters started to gather around and shout, while the monkey sat next to the old white ape who had been silent since he came back, but did not say a word.

The old white ape's face looked a little ugly, and he sighed longly: "To enter the city, you need gold essence, a lot of gold essence. If you want to live in the city, you must pay a certain amount of gold essence every month..."

At this point, he buried his head between his knees and stopped talking.

Monkey patted him on the shoulder: "Don't put so much pressure on yourself. You see, they are very satisfied now. There is nothing wrong with living here, right?"

"Every year there will be a war with Heaven. By then, no monsters left outside the city will be able to survive..."
