Journey to the West: Demon Emperor: Beginning as a Little Toad

Chapter 216: Earning the Monkey King to Go Up the Mountain
However, mythical beasts like the Dapeng are very rare, and each one can be counted.

Refining Dapeng into a puppet fighter or mount is not a good choice at the moment.

"Okay, okay, let's go have some wine."

The Bull Demon King couldn't wait any longer and wanted to drag King Yu Monkey and Xiao Chen to the banquet.

At this point, the blue lion and the white elephant have been transformed into puppet thugs, at the mercy of the master.

The life and death of the golden-winged Roc depends on the thoughts of him and the Bull Demon King.

The issue of the three demons at Lion Camel Ridge has been temporarily resolved.

Xiao Chen's heart was temporarily relieved. He took a close look at the Great Sage Yu Monkey King in front of him.

"This Yuxiong King is indeed a talent."

Although the specific combat capability of King Yuxiong is unknown, his ability to "drive away gods and capture spirits" is indeed remarkable.

Such a talent must be brought to the top of Silizhai and given a seat at the top!
Xiao Chen and Niu Mowang looked at each other and could see what each other was thinking.

Ji Lei Mountain.

Inside Moyun Cave.

The Bull Demon King sat at the top, Xiao Chen sat on the left, and the Monkey King sat on the right.

The three of them ate some candied fruits and talked about interesting things.

However, what made Xiao Chen feel strange was that the Yu Monkey King only drank fruit juice and did not drink a drop of alcohol.

The Bull Demon King said to the Ape King:
"My dear brother, King Yuxiong, I have two other brothers. One is called the Macaque King and the other is called the Beautiful Monkey King. They are both from your monkey family. I will find them later."

"Let's all become sworn brothers so that we can help each other when something happens in the future."

"Brother, that's not necessary."

"I've always been a loner and don't like this."

King Yuxiong, on the other hand, seemed to be indifferent and not interested at all.

Seeing this, Bull Demon King tried to persuade him again:
"My dear brother, King Yuxiong, there is a saying that goes, 'A single thread cannot make a line, and a single tree cannot make a forest.'"

"Listen to my brother's advice. With more brothers, the road will be easier to walk."

"My brother Jinjiao is also very capable."

"Why don't the three of us become sworn brothers, run the weapon refining business together, and share the wealth in Xiniu Hezhou."

King Yuxiong refused again: "Brother, no need."

"I never socialize with people, so I don't get into trouble."

"This……"

The Bull Demon King was speechless for a moment and didn't know what to say.

The old cow returned empty-handed.

Xiao Chen glanced at King Yuxiong and thought to himself:
"How do you help others get to the top of the mountain and sit on the top seat?"

When it comes to the method of recruiting talents and getting people to go up the mountain, it has to be the "wise man" Wu Yong.

Wu Yong had many tricks up his sleeve and gained numerous important positions in Liangshan.

The combat power value of the mythological plane is higher than that of the martial arts plane, and the gap between the two combat powers is quite large.

This means that in the mythological plane, problems can often be solved simply by brute force.

In the martial arts world and the underworld, the difference in fighting power between the upper and lower levels is not that big, and problems are often solved with strategy.

Therefore, people in the martial arts world are very strategic and wise.

The "wise man" Wu Yong used various methods to get people to Liangshan and Shuibo to become the leader, such as bribing with huge sums of money, coercing with force, framing, stealing people's things...

Xiao Chen thought about it in his mind and found that most of these methods were rather despicable. They might not be suitable to be used on King Yu Monkey.

Among all the strategies Wu Yong used, only the "huge bribery" could be tried.

As for King Jinjiao, he now has a large fortune, with plenty of gold, silver, money, weapons and magic weapons, and can afford to pay out profits.

It was just a "huge sum of money" bribe, I thought about it here.

Xiao Chen held a glass of wine, walked up to King Yuxiong, and said gratefully: "Brother King Yuxiong, thank you for what you did today."

After all, the first step is to have a chat with the King of Yu Monkey and build a good relationship with him.

"No need, you and I are not familiar with each other."

"I came here because of my brother, the Bull Demon King."

"If you want to thank someone, then thank Brother Bull Demon King."

King Yuxiong waved his hand, picked up a glass of juice, took a sip, and refused to continue chatting with Xiao Chen.

Seeing that the Yu Monkey King had an expression that said "keep away from strangers", Xiao Chen was at a loss for a moment.

If no one wants to communicate with you, what's the point of your methods?

Anyway, the Bull Demon King and the Monkey King are familiar with each other, and if he pulls out the radish, there will be mud. If he pulls the Bull Demon King into the water, it is equivalent to pulling the Monkey King into the water.

Inside Moyun Cave.

The atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.

King Yu Monkey drank his juice by himself, ignoring Xiao Chen and not saying a word, with a serious look on his face.

Only Bull Demon King and Xiao Chen were drinking from each other, staring at each other with their bull eyes and toad eyes.

At this moment, the Bull Demon King's eyes rolled, he stood up, embraced the Ape King and laughed:

"My dear brother, King Yuxiong, I was visiting a friend a while ago and got a batch of kiwi fruit juice brewed by your monkey tribe."

"It tastes so sweet that even my brother can't bear to drink it."

"I know you can't drink, so I kept it for you."

“You must try it.”

"it is good."

King Yuxiong was a man who seldom talked and was very frugal with words, so he did not refuse when he heard the words.

"Hahaha, I'll get it right away."

The Bull Demon King laughed heartily and went to get the "kiwi juice".

Only Xiao Chen and King Yuxiong were left.

The Yuxiong King was still cold and aloof, with a cold and arrogant look on his face.

The Bull Demon King took out a large jar of "kiwi juice" and poured a full bowl for the Monkey King. He said with a smile, "Brother, how does it taste?"

King Yu took a bite and said, "Not bad."

"Then drink some more, drink some more."

"Why are you being polite here, big brother?"

"But you think that big brother didn't treat you well enough?"

The Bull Demon King said with a straight face.

"No."

King Yuxiong said this and immediately drank a large bowl of it.

"Drink more, drink more."

"However, I have two pretty female monkey demons in my cave. I'd like to invite them over to drink with you, my dear brother."

The Bull Demon King said with a wink.

"No, I'll just drink it."

King Yuxiong said he would drink another bowl immediately.

"Come on, let's drink another bowl together."

The Bull Demon King invited Xiao Chen and Yu Monkey King.

then.

The three of them raised their glasses, drank a large bowl of wine, and ate some candied fruits.

The Bull Demon King made his own arguments and kept persuading the Monkey King to drink the "kiwi juice".

Another quarter of an hour passed.

"Hahaha, Brother Niu, it's been a long time since we last met. It's so nice to be able to talk and drink together!"

King Yuxiong suddenly laughed out loud and said generously.

The sound was like a huge bell, echoing in the dark Moyun Cave, as if it was going to shake the thousand-year-old stone wall into dust.

His laughter was full of heroism and magnanimity, very similar to that of the Bull Demon King.

The sudden burst of laughter from the Yuxiong King.

Xiao Chen was caught off guard, and the wine bowl in his hand almost slipped out.

Xiao Chen looked up and saw that after drinking several large bowls of "kiwi juice", the face of the Yu Monkey King turned red, his steps became unsteady, and he staggered, looking like a drunk, and was laughing loudly towards the sky.

Its body seemed to be ready to dance at any time along with that heroic laughter.

"This……"

Xiao Chen was secretly a little surprised.

At this time, King Yuxiong was drinking happily, laughing and talking freely, which was completely different from his previous serious personality.

"My dear brother, the Yuxiong King, is not good at drinking."

"But he only behaves like this after drinking."

"I made him fake wine."

"Brother, I have had countless banquets and drunk countless wines."

"I already know that there is a kind of wine that doesn't taste like alcohol at first, but is actually very strong."

"This time it was specially prepared for my dear brother, the Yuxiong King."

The Bull Demon King blinked at Xiao Chen and said with a smile.

At this moment.

The Yuxiong King had already thrown off his black cloak, and strode towards Xiao Chen with a wine bowl in hand. He embraced Xiao Chen and said with a smile:

"Brother Jinjiao, I've heard about you from Big Brother Bull Demon King a long time ago. It's our first meeting, please take care of me."

"Please take good care of me. Please take good care of me."

Xiao Chen was a little uncomfortable with King Yuxiong's sudden enthusiasm, but he immediately changed his mind and started drinking with King Yuxiong with a smile.

Only then did Xiao Chen see King Yu Monkey's face clearly.

What a face this is.

The head of King Yuxiong was as eerie as a ghost, pitch black, and seemed covered with a layer of ominous haze.

The face of the Yu Monkey King was hideous and distorted, his scarlet eyes were like two sharp knives, and his sparse hair was scattered randomly, as if he was an evil ghost escaping from the dark abyss.

Exactly: "Head like a ghost, black as a face, red eyes like knives, face twisted and hideous, crooked mouth and bald hair."

In short, very ugly.

If we talk about Sun Wukong's appearance: "hairy face, thunder god's mouth, northern cheeks with similar shape to Saturn, flat ears, broad forehead and fangs growing outwards", he can be called the "Handsome Monkey King" among monkeys.

If we compare King Yu the Monkey and Sun Wukong, he is undoubtedly the "Ugly Monkey King".

"My dear brother, the Yuxiong King, is not good-looking."

"Moreover, he is gifted and has the ability to enslave others since he was a child."

“So everyone else was afraid of him and didn’t dare to associate with him.”

"In the long run, he has this lonely and cold personality."

"He would only be so carefree and unrestrained when he was drunk."

"Or maybe he is like this deep down in his heart, but he has been trapping himself inside."

After the Bull Demon King raised his glass and clinked it with King Yu Monkey's, he sighed and spoke quietly to Xiao Chen.

"I see."

Xiao Chen understood after hearing this.

People like King Yuxiong were called "lonely people" in the previous life.

They often feel lonely, have social anxieties, and are unsmiling.

But in fact, deep down I still want to communicate with others.
