"No! No! This way, our monkey race will start a war with the other races.”At this moment, King Monkey Shi had just stepped into the mortal world and did not have the heart to bully the weak. After listening to the suggestions of the leaders, he shook his head and said,"I don't want to rely on the power of my race to bully other races.”As he spoke, he looked around at the few leaders." In the past, you all rested on the trees. Now, I'm asking everyone to move down from the trees and live in the cave. I think that this way, not only can we avoid the wind and rain, but we can also be safe. Since you have never thought about living in a cave, you certainly don't care if there is a big cave like what I said on this mountain.”At this point, he paused for a moment and looked at the mountains that were stacked with peaks. He continued,"Don't believe in the so-called 'experience'. Sometimes,' experience 'can fool and deceive us. Maybe you guys don't know that there is such a big cave on the mountain, but maybe the other members of our tribe know.”He waved at the leaders."Now, everyone, don't waste any more time. Immediately pass on my order to mobilize all the tribes to search for the big cave! If you have any news, come to this tree and report it to me!”
The few leaders received the order and left. It didn't take long before one of the leaders led a Long Armed Ape Monkey and a White-Browed Elder Ape to climb a branch and jump in front of King Hou Shi. The white-browed elder ape bowed to King Monkey Shi and asked,""Your Majesty, do you know the waterfall on the cliff?”King Hou Shi nodded, indicating that he understood. He motioned for the elder ape to continue.
"When my grandfather was young, he heard his grandfather say," There was a large cave behind the waterfall. When his grandfather was young, he often followed his grandfather to play in the cave. Later, as the waterfall grew stronger and covered the entrance of the cave, the cave was gradually forgotten.”When the elder ape said this, he looked up at King Hou Shi." I've only heard about it and have never really entered. I was only happy when I heard that the king wanted to find a place for us to live, so I treated this as a clue and provided it to the king. It would be best if there was really a cave behind the waterfall. If not, please do not blame the Elder Ape.”
King Monkey Shi pondered for a moment, then stared at the white-browed elder ape and said,""Since you heard this clue from your grandfather, I think this might not be a groundless rumor. Now, let's go over and take a look. If we find…if we can't find the cave, you'll only be rewarded for your contributions.”
When the old ape heard this, he was overjoyed. Together with the Long Armed Ape Monkey, he led King Monkey Shi up the treetops, climbing branches and jumping into the stream, rushing towards the waterfall. Along the way, the Long Armed Ape Monkey shouted loudly and told every member of the Monkey Clan that he met on the way to the waterfall to find the cave. More and more monkeys gathered, surrounding King Monkey Shi as they rushed towards the cliff.
Soon, King Monkey Shi brought the monkeys to the edge of the cliff. The cliffs stood opposite each other, one high and one low. The cliff opposite the monkey group was more than ten feet higher than the cliff under the monkey group. The waterfall flew down from the high cliff and was divided into three. The main waterfall in the middle was seven or eight feet wide, and the auxiliary waterfalls guarding the main waterfall on both sides were less than ten feet wide, while the waterfalls were seventeen or eight feet high. As the main waterfall had just experienced a rainstorm, the amount of water was huge. The waterfall that flew down was majestic and magnificent. The two auxiliary waterfalls were like two white gauzes swaying in the wind. They were charming and beautiful. Compared with the vast and heaven-shaking momentum of the main waterfall, one was hard and the other was soft, complementing each other. The waterfall fell into the pool below with a rumble. The water splashed everywhere and the rain and fog floated in the sky. What was even more beautiful was that in the rain and fog, there was a rainbow bridge.
King Hou Shi stood on the platform opposite the waterfall, bathed in the misty rain, staring at the rainbow in a daze. The scene in front of him was so beautiful that it was obviously not enough to describe it as " a curtain of beads that could not be rolled up, and a galaxy hanging on a steep cliff ". If he added " a waterfall that was like cotton water, and a rainbow bridge that was like brocade woven by the sky " to supplement it, it would complement each other.
Amidst the mist, the white-browed elder ape wiped the water off his face and pointed at the main waterfall. He said to King Hou Shi,""Your Majesty, the cave I mentioned is behind the waterfall.”
King Hou Shi did not answer. He estimated the distance between the waterfall and the platform under his feet. He felt that it was about 30 feet away. Since he did not know if there was a cave behind the waterfall, he bent down, picked up a stone, and threw it at the main waterfall in the middle. The stone passed through the water curtain. After a long while, it was still blurry, and there seemed to be a faint sound of the stone falling to the ground. From the echoes, he knew that there was indeed a cave behind the waterfall. He quickly turned around, waved his arms excitedly, and shouted at the monkeys behind him,"Little ones! There was indeed a cave behind the waterfall! You guys wait outside. I'll go in and see what's going on inside.”
After King Hou Shi finished speaking, he took a few steps back and then ran to the edge of the cliff. His toes touched the edge of the platform, and his body rose into the air and shot toward the waterfall. His body was about to touch the waterfall when he opened his eyes. Good monkey king! He turned around in the air, and his body instantly curled into a ball as he crashed into the waterfall...
King Hou Shi passed through the water curtain and landed in the cave. After landing, King Hou Shi looked at it and immediately shouted,"Wow, what a big cave!"”
The main hall behind the water curtain was as big as a standard basketball court. The cave was well-lit, and there were nine smaller caves surrounding the hall. There were actually eight holes in the vicinity of the sub-holes. Each hole was different in size, and water flowed out of each hole. After the water dripped down from the holes, it fell into the corresponding small stone caves below, and the "ding dong" sound was endless. The eight stone holes relied on water droplets of different sizes to drip down, and they actually played a beautiful melody. King Hou Shi was attracted by the sound. He curiously looked at the eight stone holes on the stone wall and the eight stone caves below. He was surprised that the water in the stone holes above kept dripping, but the water in the stone caves below did not overflow. Little did he know that the water dripping down from the stone wall had already been connected by a hidden groove at the bottom of the cave. It flowed out of the cave and mixed with the waterfall that was pouring down, falling into the pool.
King Hou Shi raised his head and saw the ceiling of the hall. There was a huge skylight made of transparent crystal covering it. To his surprise, he could see fish and prawns playing above the skylight. It turned out that the skylight was at the top of the cliff. The water that formed a waterfall flowed down through the skylight. The sunlight passed through the water and shone into the cave through the skylight. Due to the flow of the water, the light was constantly shining through the caves. The cave was empty, without a single object. King Hou Shi was extremely excited to find such a cave. He circled around the nine caves and looked at them one by one, forgetting the time. After an unknown amount of time, the sound of water could be heard. The Long Armed Ape Monkey jumped into the cave from the water curtain.
King Hou Shi had been in the cave for about two hours, but he did not come out from behind the water curtain. The monkeys outside the cave were impatient. They were worried that their king would have an accident behind the water curtain, so the leaders gathered together and decided to send a strong Long-armed Ape Monkey into the cave to see what was going on. In the end, when the monkeys saw that the Long Armed Ape had jumped into the water curtain and did not come out, they were worried. More than ten brave monkey generals also jumped into the cave through the water curtain. There were a few tribal leaders among them.
King Hou Shi led his ten or so equally excited subordinates to tour the cave for a while before leading everyone out of the cave. When King Hou Shi could not suppress the excitement in his heart and told the good news to the monkeys outside the cave, the entire group of monkeys immediately boiled over. The group of monkeys shouted the name "Monkey King Shi" and surrounded their king in the middle. They jumped and jumped, cheering. Who would have thought that the deafening cheers of the monkeys would actually attract the attention of a demon passing by the sky above Flowerfruit Mountain.
This demon was a leopard demon who had become a spirit. Today, he was invited by a friend to attend a banquet. When he was riding on a cloud and passing by the Flowerfruit Mountain, he was suddenly disturbed by cheers from below. The leopard demon hurriedly stopped the clouds and looked down. He realized that a large group of monkeys had gathered together and were making a ruckus. He pondered for a moment and felt that it was still too early for the banquet, so he decided to come down and take a look. He turned into a macaque and walked around the monkeys. He understood why the monkeys were cheering. With a thought, while the monkeys were not paying attention to him, he secretly chanted an incantation and turned into a puff of green smoke to enter the cave behind the water curtain.
When the leopard demon saw the majestic aura of the cave, he was also amazed. After walking around the cave a few times, he confirmed that this was a legendary dragon cave that had been abandoned for many years. This was because other than the dragons, no other demonic cave had such a magnificent aura. The leopard demon looked up at the school of fish playing on the top of the cave and thought,""My cave is not only small but also dark. If I can treat this Dragon Cave Immortal Mansion as my own cave abode, how fortunate and proud would that be? Moreover, he had already cultivated to the point of becoming a spirit. He would need to recruit some minions to serve him. The original cave would definitely not work. "This abandoned dragon cave is the most ideal cave abode…" Thinking that he could show off in front of his demon friends after owning this cave, the leopard demon couldn't help but laugh out loud proudly. The laughter echoed in the cave, passing through the waterfall at the entrance of the cave and floating outside.
King Hou Shi was discussing the matter of entering the cave with his leaders when he suddenly heard a creepy and strange laughter coming from behind the waterfall. The monkeys immediately became restless. They focused their attention on the strange laughter that suddenly sounded behind the water curtain, while they looked at their respected King Monkey Shi and the leaders of the dozen or so monkeys who had entered the cave with puzzled eyes.
The terrifying laughter behind the waterfall made King Monkey Shi even more surprised than the monkeys."Why would such a terrifying laughter suddenly come from the empty cave just now?”Before the monkey king could figure it out, a puff of black smoke came out from the waterfall. He was surprised to find that the green smoke quickly gathered together in the air and finally turned into a panther-headed demon wearing armor.
The leopard demon looked at the horde of yellow monkeys in front of him and thought that these monkeys would soon become his minions. He was extremely proud and could not help but laugh again. The entire group of monkeys instantly understood. It turned out that the terrifying laughter inside the water curtain was actually emitted by the leopard demon in the air. The monkeys, including King Monkey Shi, had only heard of how ferocious demons that had become spirits were. They had never seen one before and thought that cultivating to become a spirit was just a legend. They did not expect that this legendary monster would actually appear in front of them today. Other than King Monkey Shi, the monkeys were all shocked. They stared at the leopard demon in the sky with terrified eyes, not knowing what to do.
The leopard demon laughed and shouted at the monkeys,""Who is the Monkey King? Hurry up and jump out!" The monkeys all looked at King Monkey Shi. Although the current King Monkey Shi had yet to learn spells and divine arts, he was born from heaven and earth and had just stepped into the mortal world, so he was naturally different from the rest. As the saying goes,"Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers."”He heard the monster ask,"Who is the monkey king?"”He quickly jumped up from the group of monkeys and arrived in front of the leopard demon in a few leaps. With one hand on his waist, he pointed at the leopard demon with the other and asked loudly,"What kind of monster are you? I'm the Monkey King you're looking for, the first person to unify all the tribes in the Flowerfruit Mountain-King Houshi. I don't know you, why are you looking for me?”
The leopard demon sized up King Monkey Shi and didn't say anything. He raised his head and laughed loudly, thinking,""First, capture the king.”Thinking of this, he landed on a protruding rock and grabbed at King Monkey Shi. King Monkey Shi immediately felt a powerful suction force coming at him. Under the pull of this force, he couldn't stand still and stumbled towards the leopard demon. The leopard demon reached out a hand and grabbed King Monkey Shi's neck. He gently lifted King Monkey Shi's body up high. With a ferocious expression, he shouted fiercely at the monkeys,"The winner is king. I will kill your monkey king now and become your new king!”
As soon as the leopard demon said this, a few bold monkey soldiers immediately shouted,"You're a monster. We won't recognize you as our king!”Hearing this, the demonic leopard laughed maniacally and reached out to grab the monkey soldiers who were screaming. The monkey soldiers couldn't help but be sucked into the air by a powerful suction force. The leopard demon waved his hand in the air and pointed at a bare mountain peak in the distance. The few monkey soldiers in the air were like cannonballs that shot out of their barrels and shot towards the distant mountain peak. A few moments later, a few miserable screams echoed in the valley…
