Chapter III

"You want to make me king?" the stone monkey suddenly felt that his brain was a little overwhelmed.

"There really can only be one Monkey King. An old monkey scurried up to the stone monkey and said.

"You guys had to argue all night to figure this out?" the stone monkey patted his head, feeling speechless.

"Then how should we choose the Monkey King?" asked the old monkey. This question is a bit esoteric to them, probably because the "Monkey King" was proposed by the stone monkey, so they chose to come to the stone monkey.

"Didn't I say that yesterday?" asked the stone monkey with a blank face.

"Did you say that?" the old monkey looked to the left, and the monkey on the left shook his head.

"Did you say that?" the old monkey looked to the right, and the monkey on the right shook his head.

I guess I'm so excited that I forgot about it.

The stone monkey sighed, pointed to the waterfall and said casually: "There is a cave behind the waterfall, if you can go in and come out safely, it is the Monkey King." ”

"But can you go in?" asked the old monkey.

The monkeys shivered at the splash: "I'm going to die." ”

"If you don't die, aren't everyone the monkey kings?" said the stone monkey speechlessly.

The group of monkeys actually nodded their heads one by one, as if they felt that the stone monkey was very reasonable.

History seems to be back on track, connected in different ways, but at the same point.

The monkeys chirped again, and they began to discuss how to enter the cave with great enthusiasm, without even doubting whether the cave really existed.

It can be seen that the monkey brain is not much stronger than the pig brain.

Of course, the discussion was fruitless, and the human brain had not yet figured it out, let alone the monkey brain. But they still don't want to give up, and the monkeys yearn for the days when they don't have to pick their own fruits, and when someone catches lice, they can have a mother monkey as they want.

Among these talking monkeys, the old monkey who had just spoken to the stone monkey was indispensable.

The old monkey hugged a bunch of fruits and put them on the edge of the deep pool, with a posture that did not allow the monkey king to swear. By the fate of having said a few words, the stone monkey went over to eat shamelessly, and even ate yesterday's breakfast, lunch, and dinner at once. When the stone monkey, who had sworn not to starve to death, began to plan for today's dinner, the old monkey finally couldn't help kicking him away and pretending not to know him.

So, after coming to this world, the stone monkey who finally ate for the first time also began to think about how to be a fruit that did not have to pick its own fruit, and some people caught lice and wanted to ...... Ahem, the Monkey King.

When the midday sun shone hotly on the earth, all the monkeys hid in the shade of the trees, and the stone monkeys finally thought of a safe and safe way.

However, this method will not work alone, and so, the first politician in the history of monkeys was born, and this politician began to write empty promises like crazy.

"Do you want to be a monkey general?" asked the stone monkey, catching a sturdy-looking monkey.

A new term was born in the monkey colony.

"What is the monkey general?" asked the monkey, rubbing his head.

"That's it...... Similar to the Monkey King, you don't have to pick the fruit yourself, someone helps catch lice, and you can make other monkeys obedient, but you only listen to the monkey king. ”

"Can you have a female monkey?" asked the monkey.

"Ahem...... Originally, it didn't work, but blessed are you, brother, when I can be my monkey general. The stone monkey looked at the monkey with straight eyes, put his hands on the monkey's shoulders, and said to him with a sincere face: "Come on, as long as I become the monkey king, you will be the monkey general!"

"Do you want to jump into a waterfall?" asked the monkey.

"No, I don't. As long as you do what I say, I promise you'll be the monkey general. The stone monkey grinned.

In a few moments, he had succeeded in bewitching nine strong monkeys, and just as he was about to bewitch the tenth monkey, one of them grabbed him.

"Brother, do you want to be a monkey general? like the Monkey King, but you don't have to jump a waterfall!" said the monkey.

The black line on the stone monkey's face. In these days, there is really competition for everything. These monkeys obviously didn't know what they wanted to do, but at the moment, they were already in a pile.

Looking at the piles of monkeys, and then at the nine monkeys behind him, the stone monkey gave up the idea of bewitching one more.

With the only nine monkeys in hand, the stone monkeys set out to act. He first found a few stones, sharpened them desperately, and the rough stone knife took shape. He then taught the monkeys to cut the longest and thickest vines with a stone knife, put them together, and weave them like whips, and then joined them, and soon two long, thick ropes were born.

"Boss, what's next?" the monkey asked.

At this point, not only the nine monkeys that followed him were amazed, all of them craned their necks curiously.

"Let's go up the mountain!" said the stone monkey, raising his hands.

Nine monkeys staggered up the hill, and the other monkeys followed curiously.

At the top of the mountain, the stone monkey tied one of the ropes to the middle of the other, tied the end of the other rope to a large rock, and tied the other end to a large tree on the top of the mountain.

"Good way!" The canary, who was still guarding not far away, raised his head and swallowed the worm in his mouth directly, and sighed: "This is the smartest monkey I have ever seen, and I have a fight with humans." ”

Under the command of the stone monkeys, nine monkeys and stone monkeys carried the big stones step by step to the waterfall and threw the stones down the waterfall.

"Knock ——!" There was a huge splash of water, and all the monkeys screamed.

The stone monkey tugged at the rope: "It's very tight, and it saves even re-tying." ”

Immediately afterwards, he led a group of monkeys down the mountain to the edge of the deep pool again, and dragged the other end of the rope tied to the middle of the rope that hung down to the deep pool, and tied it to the trunk of the tree.

In this way, a suspended pattern of two ropes and a stone is formed.

All the monkeys watched silently, their eyes intent, they had never seen anything so intelligent, just as they had never seen a human.

Under the watchful eyes of all the monkeys, the stone monkey pulled another vine, tied it to himself, and tied the other end in a knot with the big rope.

This is a safety rope, even if there is an accident, he will not die. Then, with a wave of his hand, four monkeys went up to the top of the mountain as he had said, with stone knives in their hands.

Seeing four hairy heads peeking out on the top of the mountain, the stone monkey stuck a stone knife into the vine around his waist and climbed the flat rope at once.

"Oh oh ~ " The monkeys exclaimed in unison, they waved their arms, and they were very excited. In this wild place, the monkeys don't have to think too much about things, and they howl loudly when they are excited.

Soon, the stone monkey climbed to the edge of the waterfall with a rope inclined at a 20-degree angle. The oncoming wind blew bursts of water vapor, the rope vibrated with turbulent water, and even some water droplets fell directly on his body, making his heart palpitate.

There was a twitch in the corner of his eye, it was involuntary fear, but he had no way out.

In this place, he can only follow this path, otherwise a monkey, what should he do?

Even he is not as good as a monkey, he can't climb trees, he can't hunt, he can only live on the handouts of other monkeys. Even one day, the tiger at the foot of the mountain was no longer afraid of him, and swallowed this monkey that could not climb a tree.

Behind him is the howl of a group of monkeys, and in front of him is a raging waterfall. He closed his eyes, gritted his teeth, and continued to climb forward to meet the baptism of the waterfall.

The sound of the water was so loud that he could no longer hear the howls of the monkeys, and it seemed as if he was the only one left in the whole world. The water that fell from a great place hit him with a great momentum, making him feel cold, and what was even more terrifying was the momentum!

He was mentally prepared, but the preparation was still not enough, and under the momentum, as soon as he missed, he quickly fell down.

"It turns out that Sun Wukong jumps the waterfall, it is so difficult. He thought to himself.

The safety rope saved his life, and he hung in mid-air, the loop on the huge rope sliding quickly to take him out of the waterfall, and finally stopped halfway through.

It took him a long time to regain his breath. Wiping the water from his face, his roaring ears finally regained his hearing, and he heard the howling of the monkeys again, which made his heart feel a lot more calm.

"Can't give up. As he spoke, he reached out and tugged at the safety rope, climbing the huge rope and slowly climbing towards the waterfall.

The icy water hit him again, and he almost felt that it was not water at all, but hail that had fallen on him. These hailstones not only hit his body, but also directly hit the bottom of his heart, washing his entire heart into nothing, leaving only the will to move on.

Finally, he failed again, this time exhausted by the failure, and when he slipped halfway to the center, he didn't move, and just hung like that.

The monkeys in the distance stopped howling, perhaps they thought the stone monkey was dead.

For a long time, no monkey remembered exactly how long it had been, because they were all holding their breath, and time was flowing so slowly. The stone monkey moved again, and he climbed the giant rope again, still in the direction of the waterfall.
