Chapter 464: It's rare to have a confidant in life
The old dragon king found an excuse and left, and there were only two people left in the main hall, Monkey and Ao Shuilan.
Ao Shuilan sat down across from the monkey with a gentle smile on her face.
In fact, as the Dragon King, why should he go there in person when he ordered his subordinates to set up a banquet? He just didn't know his daughter's purpose, and he was afraid that he would disturb her. It's just that in this way, it hurts the monkey, and in the face of Ao Shuilan, who has a gentle smile on the opposite side, the monkey really has a taste like sitting on pins and needles.
Looking at the monkey's restless appearance, it was Ao Shuilan who finally broke the embarrassment: "Officially introduce, the concubine is Ao Tingxin in the East China Sea, and she is the fourth princess of the East China Sea." Haven't asked the mountain lord for his name yet?"
"East ...... The four princesses of the East China Sea?" The monkey seemed to be startled by Ao Shuilan, who suddenly spoke, and then reacted, swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said: "I am a native of Huaguo Mountain, and later went to the sea to seek Taoism, and the master gave me a name, called Sun Wukong." ”
"Monkey King? It seems that Venerable Master is also a master of Taoism. ”
Ao Shuilan chuckled and continued.
Apparently, she is very talkative.
Hearing Ao Shuilan talk about his master, a proud look appeared on the monkey's face for the first time since Ao Shuilan appeared: "That is, the master is an old man with great powers, and he is naturally a master." ”
Hearing this, Ao Tingxin chuckled and said: "Famous teachers produce high apprentices, it seems that the mountain master is also powerful." ”
The monkey grinned, reached out and scratched his head: "It's okay, hahaha." ”
"Then how did the Mountain Lord meet the Venerable Master?" Ao Shuilan asked softly.
"At the beginning, in order to seek immortality, I went to sea to seek ......"
"Go to sea to seek the truth?"
"Yes, go to sea and seek the truth. The monkey scratched his head again: "It is said that it is to go to sea to seek the way, but in fact, it is to drift on the sea, and it is where it goes." ”
Ao Tingxin heard the monkey say this, and there was a thoughtful look in her eyes, which was why she was surprised when she hid behind the screen and saw the monkey before. But she didn't interrupt the monkey, but listened quietly.
“...... Later, after leaving Nanganbuzhou, I continued to drift on the sea, and finally drifted to Xiniuhezhou, where I had to be guided by a master to meet my master and his old man. ”
After listening to the monkey, Ao Tingxin could basically determine that the monkey was the one he saw on the sea when he returned to the Dragon Palace last time, and sighed that it was no coincidence that the book was not written, while Ao Shuilan did not say this matter, but asked curiously: "I don't know who the Venerable Master is? ”
This is the issue she is most concerned about.
She didn't think that a monkey with no half-point background would attract so much attention from the emperor.
However, looking at Ao Shuilan's delicate face full of curiosity, the monkey could hardly refuse in his heart, but thinking of Su Bodhi's command, the monkey couldn't help but blush, and said, "Master, he is an old man, don't let me tell others his name......"
After speaking, the monkey secretly glanced at Ao Shuilan, but saw that not only did she not have the slightest unhappiness on her face, but said apologetically with a smile: "It's Shui Lan who is abrupt." ”
Hearing this, the monkey hurriedly waved his hand again and again: "It's okay, it's okay." ”
Smiling slightly, Ao Shuilan diverted the topic without a trace: "Speaking of seeking the Tao, Shui Lan has been seeking the Tao outside all these years, just like the mountain master before." ”
"Then we're quite fated, but we may be a little different......" The monkey smiled awkwardly, the monkey face, hot.
"What difference will there be if you are seeking the same way?" asked Ao Shuilan.
The monkeys hesitated for a long time, stunned and didn't think of how to answer, and finally looked down at their tattered clothes, and stretched out their fingers to each other.
Ao Shuilan was stunned for a moment, and then heard the monkey say: "Although I said that I went to sea to seek Taoism, in fact, I was just unwilling to die in Huaguo Mountain and go out to try my luck." If I hadn't met my master, I'm afraid I would still be in the world, and maybe I would have died one day. And you ......"
The monkey didn't continue, but Ao Shuilan already understood.
She is the fourth princess of the East China Sea, and she can live well even if she doesn't seek the Tao, and she just wants to go higher. Moreover, even if she went out to seek the Tao, she didn't need to take so many detours.
It's just that, looking at the monkey in front of him, Ao Shuilan's eyes flashed with inexplicable meaning.
You envy Shui Lan, why don't Shui Lan envy you?
The four princesses of the dragon clan seem to have noble status, but in the eyes of those big people, what is it? On the contrary, you are valued by the emperor, and the future is limitless, how can you be compared to a mere water blue?
Ao Shuilan will not forget that his life was easily used as a chess piece to calculate.
If it weren't for Ye Xuan's kindness, she would have died if she had another person.
Looking at Ao Shuilan, whose mood suddenly became a little low, the monkey cautiously asked, "What's wrong with you?"
chuckling and shaking her head, Ao Shuilan did a good job of hiding the gloom in her eyes: "It's nothing, I just thought of some of the past." ”
After a pause, Ao Shuilan said again: "However, Shui Lan disagrees with what the mountain master said just now, as long as he has a heart to seek the Tao, why should he care about his background?"
looked at Ao Shuilan in a daze, and finally the monkey exhaled slowly: "If you say that, it's right, haha." ”
The two talked for a while, but they didn't talk much, but the monkey felt that he had never been so happy.
The banquet has been set up, and the old dragon king has not yet come out.
But the monkey didn't care that much.
The maids of the Dragon Palace came and went, serving plates of sumptuous dishes, some of which even the monkeys didn't know how to eat.
But the monkey felt that all this was indifferent, he had never felt that there was a person who could understand him so well.
It's still a beautiful girl who doesn't talk like a word.
Before you know it, the monkey has drunk too much.
Looking at one foot on the chair, happily talking about how to find immortals and asked, how to return to the mountain after learning, how to fight the demon king of the mixed world, how to subdue the water dirty hole, and how to enter Jimo City-that's what the monkey said-The monkey who swept countless armor back to the mountain, Ao Shuilan just watched quietly, with a shallow smile on his face.
Suddenly, Ao Shuilan said softly: "The mountain lord now has a blade, but the mountain lord's dress is a little inconsistent with the identity of the mountain lord." ”
Hearing Ao Shuilan say this, the monkey's voice stopped happily, as if he was dumb all of a sudden, looking at the tattered clothes on his body, a monkey's face instantly turned red again.
However, the monkey looked at Ao Shuilan, but he didn't see half a mocking look on that delicate face, which made the monkey puzzled again.
Seeing this, Ao Shuilan smiled slightly and stood up.
