I trade everything in Journey to the West

A small pavilion in the middle of the lake,

There are new clusters of flowers all around, and Baozhi is growing everywhere.

The sky shines brightly, reflecting the golden waves and making them clear.

Fang Longye leaned in front of the window, drank all the fragrant tea in the cup, picked up a piece of pastry on the table, crumbled it, and sprinkled it into the water outside the attic.

Among the sparse lotus leaves,

Several koi fish of different colors couldn't help but stick out their heads, looked around, quickly swallowed the crumbs of the cake, and then plunged into the water again.

After several puffs passed, only circles of dizzy ripples were left, moving in all directions, giving the originally quiet scene a hint of animation.

"It should be him~"

Fang Longye looked out the window, his eyes dim.

If it is true that Lord Danxia just said that he will soon take a five-hundred-year rotation in Tushita Palace to guard the fire and furnace for the Lord,

Then the unlucky guy in the original work who was implicated by the monkeys and was demoted to the lower world and reduced to the land of the Flame Mountain is undoubtedly the current True Lord Danxia~

"Well, it's not necessarily the unlucky guy." Fang Longye turned around and thought, "Maybe it was specially arranged by Taishang Laojun to share the merits and luck."

After all, there is a lot of merit and luck on the entire journey to the West. Even if you are just a sidekick or show your face casually, you can get a lot of merit and luck.

Thinking of this,

Fang Longye planned to take good care of Lord Danxia's nephew after he came to report to him, and at least show a certain amount of goodwill.

According to the original idea,

He had no intention of caring too much about the nephew of True Monarch Danxia. The thought he had always had was that if he was a talented person, he would either keep him or send him away.

But again, who would let the uncle behind the family have any background?

The most important thing is that in the future, when you travel to the West and arrive at the Flame Mountain, you might be able to mix it in and gain some merit and luck~

This alone,

It was enough to make him change his attitude and plan to get closer to the True Monarch Danxia~

After making up your mind,

Fang Longye reached out to the sandalwood table next to him and took out an elixir gourd. It was none other than the gift given to him by True Monarch Danxia just now~

After removing the stopper from the mouth of the gourd, Fang Longye could not help but praise:

"This elixir is pretty good!"

I don’t know whether the gourd elixir was refined by True Lord Danxia himself or obtained from somewhere else.

Fang Longye poured one out of his hand. It was golden and about the size of a longan. Fang Longye threw it into his mouth like a jelly bean and swallowed it~

"It is indeed a good elixir!"

The elixir enters the abdomen, and for a while, the mouth and nose are fragrant. Within the seven orifices, sparks of fire are flickering, yin and yang, water and fire, fish heads and fish tails are connected, and it is inexplicably like a painting.

There is even more colorful clouds all over the body.

Although this elixir does not help him much now, if Jinxian takes it, he can make a lot of progress~

"The craftsmanship is quite good. This True Monarch Danxia has this name in heaven for a reason~"

Although he is a novice in alchemy, he has taken many miraculous medicines along the way, and he can be considered a half-level expert~

As soon as the elixir enters the stomach,

Since it can be eaten, this gourd elixir should have come from the hands of Zhenjun Danxia.

"Keep it as a reward for those around you, or take it to my Wanling Fang to sell it~"

Fang Longye tasted it and put the elixir gourd in his hand again, thinking to himself.

……

in this way,

Several more rounds of guests were received in the mansion.

Fang Longye took some time out and immediately called the steward of the mansion and said, "Get the chariot ready and come with me to Dongtianmen~"

The monkey has been in heaven for several days. As his good big brother, it's time for him to go and visit.

It would be fine if he was not in heaven, but not only was he there, but he was also in a high position. This would be unjustifiable without taking a look at the monkey.

When the monkey found out about it in the future, he thought that since his elder brother was so prosperous, he had forgotten about his younger brother.

……

Heavenly Court, East Tianmen.

The camp where the heavenly soldiers and generals are stationed.

In one camp,

Sun Wukong happened to be on duty today and did not have to go to Dongtianmen to guard, so he did not wear a helmet, but wore a court uniform.

It's just that he is a bit thin, has a thunderous face, and is covered with long monkey hair, even though the military attache's court uniform of the guarding marshal is very majestic and beautiful~

But it always felt uncomfortable wearing it on him.

This kind of discomfort is not only felt by him, but also by others after seeing it.

Well, how do you say that idiom?

Bathed in monkeys and crowned~

Sun Wukong was chewing a brush holder, leaning on the table in the center, writing and drawing on several stacks of books, scratching his ears and cheeks from time to time.

Looks very serious~

A few moments,

He put down his brush, stretched out, and sighed: "It's really hard to be a guard marshal!"

"I thought it would be enough to fight and kill, but it turns out I have to deal with official documents. I don't know when the master report assigned to me will arrive?"

Sun Wukong collapsed on the case and complained.

Although the guard marshal has hundreds of positions in Dongtianmen and cannot keep his word, he is not a mere commander after all, and he still commands a group of people.

As a result,

There are many documents that need to be signed and reviewed by the garrison marshal, such as people eating horses and chewing, arranging supplies, asking for leave to go out, etc.

How can a monkey play with this?

In addition, he has always been impatient, how can he have the patience to sit here and deal with official documents one by one?

Now that he is trying hard to do it, he is just relying on the enthusiasm of the new official to take office. This has already made him scratch his head and look forward to the early arrival of his boss.

"Master Marshal!"

Sun Wukong rested for a while, cheered up, took the brush in his hand again, and was about to continue "battle" with the pile of documents on the desk.

But at this time, one of his commanders hurried in and shouted:

"Master Marshal!"

If other guard marshals had seen their subordinates so startled, they would have scolded him long ago, but Sun Wukong's temperament would naturally not be like this.

He just said: "What's the matter?"

"Master Marshal,"

The commander came to Sun Wukong and reported:

"Someone is looking for you outside~"

"Someone is looking for me?"

When the commander saw Sun Wukong standing up,

He couldn't help but shrink his neck and said: "I didn't give my name, I just said that I was an old friend of your Excellency."

Then, he glanced at Sun Wukong and said: "But I see that the chariot belongs to the residence of the newly appointed Lord Shuiyuan some time ago, and it seems to be the exclusive chariot of Lord Shuiyuan~"

The latter was actually the commander's guess, mainly because he knew the charioteer, called Meng Lingkuan, who was considered his old boss~

It is said that some time ago, his old boss was selected to be the steward of Shuiyuan Shengjun Mansion.

And if he, who is the steward of Shui Yuan Shengjun's Mansion, can drive around in person, who can it be if it's not the Shui Yuan Shengjun who comes in person?

It seems that my boss is really not that simple. Otherwise, how could he be related to Shuiyuan Shengjun?

"Sage Lord Shuiyuan~"

Sun Wukong is surprised. He used to be a demon in the lower world, but now he has only been in heaven for a few days, and he doesn’t know many people in the heaven.

He had never heard of Shuiyuan Shengjun, so how could he be an old friend with him?

While doubtful,

He couldn't help but become interested, and with a movement of his body, he jumped over the table and motioned for his commander to follow him, saying: "Let's go out and take a look~"

……

The monkey was decisive. After finishing speaking, he put on his robe and walked out the door.

As soon as he went out, Sun Wukong saw a person outside the camp. He was dressed in luxurious clothes. He was handsome and handsome, and his aura was as powerful as the ocean.

"Hahaha,"

Fang Longye laughed out loud when he saw Sun Wukong dressed in a military attache's robe. The monkey's dress was nondescript, and he felt a bit like wearing a monkey's head.

"Big brother!"

After Sun Wukong saw clearly that the person outside was Fang Longye, he was surprised and happy. He jumped forward, patted Fang Longye's shoulder with his hand, and said:

"Okay, I didn't expect you to come to Heaven one step ahead of time, brother. You seem to be a high-ranking official. Why haven't I heard you say that before?"

Fang Longye shook his head and said with a smile: "I'm just an official in heaven, what's there to say~"

When Sun Wukong heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little ashamed when he thought about his recent complacency.

"The eldest brother has a plan, and the younger brother is ashamed of himself."

Fang Longye pulled the monkey and said:

"I noticed you before when you first arrived at the Lingxiao Palace, but I just didn't have time to spare. I thought you were busy when you first entered the Heavenly Palace, so I didn't come to look for you."

"We brothers are now meeting old friends in a foreign land. Come on, follow me back home. Let us two have a few drinks!"

Fang Longye pulled the monkey, looking like the two brothers were in good company, so enthusiastic~

Sun Wukong has no relatives or friends in heaven. Today he finally saw an acquaintance, so he was naturally very happy.

But after hearing Fang Longye’s invitation,

He still shook his head, and instead pulled Fang Longye into the camp, saying as he walked:

"Brother's mansion, I will visit another day. Today, brother came to see me, and I am already very happy. We must come here without getting drunk!"

Maybe it’s because he’s afraid of Fang Longye’s rejection, or maybe he’s showing off his temper again:

"Don't look at it. I've only been in Heaven for a short time, but I've gained some experience. There's still no shortage of good wine and food~"

Fang Longye was surprised when he heard this. Just as the monkey said, he had not been in Heaven for long, how could he accumulate so much so quickly?

Moreover, there are countless heavenly soldiers and generals stationed in this camp, which can be regarded as an important place.

But with Monkey's tone, he, the marshal of the town, can actually drink and have fun at will in the military camp. Is he so derelict in his duties?

However, thinking about the current situation of the monkeys, Fang Longye felt that it was reasonable again. Obviously, this was not a special indulgence of the monkeys~

……

Thinking in their hearts, the two of them returned to the camp where Sun Wukong was.

Sun Wukong immediately ordered his men to prepare a banquet and bring out the best wine, spiritual fruits, delicacies, cooked food, and side dishes in his hand.

Everything is a delicacy of great value, especially the several jars of wine that Sun Wukong brought out, each of which is priceless.

In particular, there is a small blue and white altar in the middle. The fairy wine contained in it will be regarded as a treasure even in the hands of Da Luo and will not be easily given to outsiders.

All I can say is that the monkeys nowadays are really hot-blooded, upright and loyal, making them the most suitable friends.

However, Fang Longye's focus was not on this aspect. Instead, he was very interested in the monkey's ability to produce these wines and dishes that were priceless to ordinary golden immortals.

These things cannot be explained by saying "Huaguoshan is a natural treasure and rich in resources."

After a while of changing glasses and drinking happily, Fang Longye expressed his confusion.

"Ha ha!"

Sun Wukong took a breath of wine and said with a smile:

"These were given to me by my colleagues and superiors. I still have quite a few here!"

Fang Long became ambitious. Someone must have noticed that Monkey was extraordinary and came here specifically to form a good relationship with him~

"correct!"

The monkey burped, and in a state of drunkenness, he asked: "I wonder, brother, if you have any spare bosses there that I can lend a hand to~"

"Master Bo?"

When Fang Longye heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned.

"That's right, it's Zhu Bo."

Sun Wukong nodded and confirmed.

"Yes, yes, but what do you want to do? Do you still need to deal with any paperwork?"

Fang Longye nodded and asked.

It’s really not that he looks down on others~

The key guard marshal, just by hearing the name, you can tell that it is a military position. To put it bluntly, he is the gatekeeper.

Maybe he has some status, which can be regarded as a small head. But no matter what the little toutou is, if you say a thousand words and ten thousand, it means looking at the little toutou in the gate.

How much more paperwork can there be to process?

"Alas, brother, you don't know something. As the Marshal of the Guard, I don't care about many people in Dongtianmen, but I do a lot of things~"

When Sun Wukong saw Fang Longye asking, he couldn't help but give examples of the errands he needed to do one by one, and in the end he even complained about his suffering~

"To tell you the truth, brother, I have been really overwhelmed when dealing with official documents these days." Sun Wukong said about his difficulties.

"If the master who promised me before does not match me, in a few days, I will give up my job and go back to Huaguo Mountain directly."

To be honest, if he hadn't thought about taking up a new official, he would rather fight for 300 rounds than read the previous page of documents submitted by his subordinates.

It’s true that he is really not good at this!

In the past, the affairs of Huaguoshan were all handled by the four masters, that is, the four old apes. As a king, he really paid little attention to secular affairs.

"That's it~"

Fang Longye nodded to show that he understood, then pondered for a moment and said:

"In this way, I can lend you a few secretaries and clerks directly. From now on, they will follow you directly and help you handle official documents~"

"As for the director assigned to you by the above, even if it is in place in the future, you'd better keep an eye on it and try not to entrust it with big responsibilities~"

"It's better for you to do your own thing."

These words,

Fang Longye really had no other thoughts and was simply giving advice to the monkey sincerely.

For the chief officer, the assistants who help him manage everything are really important~

Especially for a boss like Monkey who gets a headache from reading official documents, it's just a big deal for him as a chief official if the boss or assistants casually add a few strokes to the document.

If the chief minister really fails to make a good choice, and he doesn't read any official documents, and leaves all the power to his subordinates, then he can just wait for someone else to take the blame~

and,

To be honest, Fang Longye was actually very skeptical.

Big figures like the Jade Emperor may have planned to let the monkey "himself" make a "big mistake" in his position, forcing the monkey to go down to the lower realm again.

otherwise,

How could it be possible that in such a vast heaven, Monkey was so short of a place and still missing?
