Chapter 10: The Dragon Maiden Returns the Favor
Winter turned to spring, and a drizzle enveloped the attic of the palace.
In the attic, the fragrance of tea was permeated, and the old king knocked on the table with a white chess piece, and after a long time, he shook his head and sighed: "Shangxian, I lost." ”
"Concession. ”
Sun Wukong brushed his hand, and the chessboard on the table suddenly disappeared.
Although it was not the first time he had seen it, the old king was amazed.
"Shangxian's trip, is it for talents?"
The old king then asked.
Sun Wukong shook his head, the monsters in Huaguo Mountain need to learn all kinds of knowledge, but they are free by nature, and now there is a phenomenon of not learning.
"I want to trade some human goods. ”
Sun Wukong said, the so-called too much, things are slow, he has to take some fun things back from the country of Aolai, so that those little demons open their eyes and know the importance of knowledge.
"This is the replacement I brought. ”
Sun Wukong took out a treasure chest from his sleeve and opened it to see that it was full of shining pearls, and the king counted them, there were twenty or thirty of them.
These are all fine pearls, and the king called the prime minister and asked him to exchange them for something of equal value according to Sun Wukong's request.
After the prime minister retreated, the king proposed: "Half of our people in the country of Aolai depend on fishing for a living, and the immortals can let those little demons come to help us resist the storm and earn money." ”
Sun Wukong shook his head: "It's not that I don't want to, but I can't restrain it." ”
Over the past year, he and the old king have often moved around, and over time, the relationship has been very good, and there is no need to hide some things.
In fact, every human being in Huaguo Mountain in the country of Aolai is protected by Sun Wukong.
He had the monkey fur turn into a small monkey and follow the humans, so that if a youkai wanted to do something to them, he would spot it immediately.
There are hundreds of thousands of little demons in Huaguo Mountain, if this method is not adopted, how can those humans be unscathed.
"Those little demons are in Huaguo Mountain, I can still restrain them, once I leave, if the demon addiction is committed, catch people and eat meat, I'm afraid I can't control it." ”
Sun Wukong said to the king.
"I see......"
When the king heard this, he suddenly realized in his heart.
This makes sense, how can monsters be changed so easily - if there is no demon fairy, then Huaguo Mountain must be a demon cave.
Thinking about it this way, the king has more and more respect for Sun Wukong.
The name of the virtuous monkey is worthy of its name, and Sun Wukong's domination of Huaguo Mountain is really a blessing for them to come to the country!
It will take some time for the prime minister to prepare things.
The king took Sun Wukong to visit the palace, Sun Wukong looked around, and the auspicious clouds above the palace were shrouded, but he didn't see any high-ranking atmosphere.
"What kind of master are you?"
Sun Wukong asked.
The king shook his head: "Proud of the small country and widows, how can there be any masters!"
Sun Wukong couldn't help sighing.
"What's the trouble with the immortals?"
The king asked.
Sun Wukong nodded: "There are many monsters in Huaguo Mountain, scattered and disorderly, I want to find someone to serve as a deputy, clear rules, discipline, and control the demons." ”
He had already established a preliminary order and political power in Huaguo Mountain, and made the demon kings of all parties generals. The four old monkeys are the stewards, and they are responsible for all the rewards and punishments.
However, after a year, Sun Wukong found that the demon kings were more than martial and lacking in wisdom, and often couldn't pay attention to his thoughts.
Although the four old monkeys are knowledgeable, they can't manage the demons to the extent that they are satisfied with Sun Wukong.
They can reward and punish clearly, so that the demons do not commit crimes, but Sun Wukong needs better people - at least in management, he can't lose to the prime minister of the Aolai country.
"Shangxian, I have a son. ”
After hearing this, the king's eyes lit up: "He is good at discipline and can assist you." ”
"No, no. ”
Sun Wukong thanked the king for his kindness, but still shook his head: "This person must be a person with profound Taoism." ”
It's okay for ordinary humans to teach some skills, but if they want to control the demons, where will they be convinced.
"Immortals can teach him the Tao. ”
The king then said.
Sun Wukong shook his head, he didn't have time to teach his apprentices, and the talent in the king's family was not enough.
He confessed that although the king was disappointed, he could only secretly cry out that it was a pity.
Soon after, the prime minister of Aolai led several carriages and arrived at the palace with a mountain of goods.
Sun Wukong pulled out a handful of hair, looked into the air, and shouted: "Change!", and then turned into three or two hundred little monkeys, picked up things, and flew away in the clouds.
After flying two hundred miles of water, Sun Wukong suddenly frowned, and asked the little monkeys to return to the Water Curtain Cave with their things, and he landed on a lonely cliff.
"Come out!"
Sun Wukong looked at the sea: "Who are you? Why have you followed me for a year?" ”
A splash broke out in the sea, and a young girl flew out.
The girl was dressed in green clothes, with a sword hanging from her waist, the appearance of a hibiscus out of the water, and two small horns on her forehead, which were the mark of the dragon clan.
Sun Wukong looked at the dragon horn and thought about her identity in his heart.
"I'll ask you. The dragon girl asked Sun Wukong, "Did you save a carp in Nanbu Continent twenty years ago?"
"Carp?" Sun Wukong frowned slightly: "I can't remember." ”
The dragon girl was suddenly a little disappointed, how could this be, she had been looking for a long time, only this monkey king was the most likely - and the eyes were just as beautiful.
"I've only seen one big fish. ”
Sun Wukong said again: "But it's white, I don't know if it's the carp you said." ”
"It's really you!"
The dragon girl was surprised and delighted, and flew towards Sun Wukong in three steps and two steps, but stopped again halfway.
The reason is that Sun Wukong said: "That big fish is still a crybaby." ”
The dragon girl immediately gritted her teeth, and tried her best to find her benefactor, but he only remembered that he was a crybaby.
Sun Wukong didn't notice the abnormality of the dragon girl.
"What are you asking for?"
"That big fish is my friend. The dragon girl took a deep breath and said, "You have been kind to it, and I deserve to repay it!"
"Repay the favor?" Sun Wukong smiled: "There is no need to repay the favor." ”
The dragon girl was a little surprised, and the Monkey King did not accept her reciprocation.
But she rolled her eyes and said, "I listened to the conversation between you and King Aolai, you have to control the demons, I can help." ”
Sun Wukong was stunned when he heard this, and then his eyes were full of golden light, staring at the dragon girl, only to see that the fairy light on her head was ruihao, although it was not as strong as him, but it was enough to deal with the demon kings.
The dragon clan has a high status in the eyes of the monsters, and the identity and strength of the dragon girl are not a problem in controlling the demons of Huaguo Mountain.
The only problem is whether the IQ is enough.
"You come with me. ”
Sun Wukong decides to test the dragon girl and give her a chance.
One is that talents are hard to find, and the other is that there is an opportunity to communicate with the Dragon Palace.
Although I don't know what the identity of this dragon girl is, since it appeared in the East China Sea, it may be somewhat helpful to obtain the Dinghai Divine Needle.
"What's your name?"
On the way, Sun Wukong asked.
The dragon girl hurriedly replied, "Ao Luan." ”
Ao is the surname of all dragons.
