Chapter 645: Journey to the West: Zhu Jiumei 4
The Dragon King pondered for a moment and waved his hand: "In that case, take them to the armory and let them choose for themselves."

The two followed the Dragon Palace attendants to the armory, which was filled with all kinds of weapons, including swords, spears, halberds, axes, hooks and forks, which were dazzling.

Sun Wukong picked up a big knife, waved it a few times, and felt it was too light. He then picked up a spear, but was still not satisfied.

Zhu Jiumei was also choosing and trying out several weapons, but none of them seemed to work well for her.

Just when they were feeling a little disappointed, Sun Wukong suddenly saw a huge pillar covered in rust.

"What is this?" Sun Wukong asked curiously.

The attendant replied, "This is the Dinghai Magic Needle left by Dayu when he was controlling the flood. It weighs 13,500 kilograms and no one has been able to lift it for many years."

Sun Wukong had an idea and walked over to hold the pillar, shouting, "Rise!" The pillar gradually became thinner and shorter, and finally turned into a golden cudgel, which was exactly what Sun Wukong wanted.

Sun Wukong danced with his golden cudgel excitedly, and the entire Dragon Palace was shaking.

The Dragon King was shocked when he saw this: "This, this..."

Zhu Jiumei also found a satisfactory weapon nearby and was very happy.

"Thank you, Dragon King!" Sun Wukong said with a smile.

The Dragon King was so angry that his face turned blue: "How dare you two thieves steal the treasures of my Dragon Palace!"

As he said this, he ordered his soldiers to capture them.

Sun Wukong and Zhu Jiumei, armed with weapons, engaged in a fierce battle with the people in the Dragon Palace.

Sun Wukong's golden cudgel was extremely powerful, and wherever it went, the shrimp soldiers and crab generals fell to the ground. Zhu Jiumei's swordsmanship was also quite superb, protecting herself and Sun Wukong.

"Dragon King, I am sorry for what happened today. I will definitely compensate you in the future!" Sun Wukong shouted.

After saying that, the two of them broke through the encirclement and left the Dragon Palace.

Back on shore, Sun Wukong and Zhu Jiumei burst into laughter.

"Junior sister, with this golden cudgel, I will be even more powerful in subduing demons and monsters in the future!" said Sun Wukong.

Zhu Jiumei said with a smile: "Brother, my long whip is also good. We will be able to deal with monsters more easily in the future."

The two chatted and laughed and continued on their way.

As they walked, it got dark and they came to a mountain.

The mountain is shrouded in clouds and mist, exuding a mysterious atmosphere.

Sun Wukong looked around vigilantly: "Junior sister, be careful, there may be a trap."

Before he could finish his words, a gust of wind whistled past, and a sinister laugh was heard in the wind.

"Hahahaha, today is the day you die!"

A huge monster appeared in front of them. The monster had a green face and fangs, a body as big as a mountain, and held a giant battle axe in his hand.

Sun Wukong was not afraid at all, he rushed forward with his golden hoop stick in hand: "Monster, stop being so arrogant!"

Zhu Jiumei also joined the battle, waving a whip.

For a moment, the sound of weapons clashing echoed throughout the valley.

Sun Wukong and the monster fought to a standstill. The monster was extremely powerful and each of his attacks was incredibly powerful.

Zhu Jiumei watched the opportunity and swung her whip at the monster's legs.

The monster felt pain and its movements slowed down slightly.

Sun Wukong took the opportunity to jump up and hit the monster on the head with a stick.

The monster screamed and fell to the ground.

"Hmph, with such little ability you have, you dare to act so presumptuous!" Sun Wukong said disdainfully.

Zhu Jiumei breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, I have a new weapon, otherwise it would be really difficult to deal with it."

The two continued to move forward, and when night fell, they found a cave to rest.

"Senior brother, this journey was really thrilling." Zhu Jiumei said.

Sun Wukong looked at the starry sky outside the cave and said: "The road of life is full of difficulties and obstacles, but I am here to protect you."

Zhu Jiumei felt warm in her heart: "With my senior brother here, I am not afraid of anything."

The next day, they set out again at daybreak.

When passing by a village, I found it dead silent.

Sun Wukong and Zhu Jiumei felt something was wrong, so they went into the village to check.

The villagers were all unconscious and the houses were in ruins.

"What's going on?" asked Zhu Jiumei.

Sun Wukong sniffed and said, "There is an evil smell. It must be a demon causing trouble."

They searched everywhere and finally found a black figure in the village ancestral hall.

The figure turned around and turned out to be a fox demon.

"It's you who ruined my good thing!" said the fox demon viciously.

Sun Wukong shouted, "Monster, how dare you harm innocent people? I'll kill you!"

The fox demon flashed and turned into a puff of black smoke and escaped.

Sun Wukong and Zhu Jiumei chased after him relentlessly.

The fox demon stopped in a forest. "Do you think you can catch me?" the fox demon sneered.

Without saying a word, Sun Wukong raised his golden cudgel and started hitting.

The fox demon cast a spell and countless branches attacked them.

Zhu Jiumei swung the whip and broke the branches one by one.

Sun Wukong took the opportunity to approach the fox demon and hit it with a stick.

The fox demon was unable to dodge and was beaten to its true form.

"Mercy, mercy!" begged the fox demon.

Just as Sun Wukong was about to kill it with a stick, Zhu Jiumei stopped him and said, "Brother, please ask this monster why it wants to harm the villagers."

Sun Wukong put away his golden cudgel and said, "Tell me, or I won't let you go!"

The fox demon said tremblingly: "I was originally cultivating in this mountain, but the villagers cut down the trees and destroyed my cave. I was so angry that I..."

Zhu Jiumei said: "No matter what, you shouldn't hurt innocent people."

The fox demon lowered his head: "I know I was wrong, and I will never dare to do it again."

Sun Wukong said: "I will spare your life this time, but if you do evil again, I will never forgive you!"

The fox demon left with many thanks.

Sun Wukong and Zhu Jiumei returned to the village, cast magic and rescued the villagers.

The villagers were filled with gratitude to them.

After saying goodbye to the villagers, they continued on their way.

Sun Wukong and Zhu Jiumei continued to move forward. Along the way, Zhu Jiumei's eyes were filled with curiosity and excitement.

"Brother, please take me to visit Huaguo Mountain." Zhu Jiumei said suddenly, her voice full of anticipation.

Sun Wukong paused and looked at her in confusion: "Junior sister, how do you know I'm from Huaguo Mountain?"

Zhu Jiumei blinked her eyes, with a playful smile on her face: "Brother, you are very capable and have great magical powers. You are such a powerful person. There have been rumors in the martial arts world that you are from the mysterious Flower-Fruit Mountain."

Sun Wukong scratched his head and grinned, "Haha, I see. But I don't know what the Flower-Fruit Mountain has become now."

"No matter what it becomes, it must have its unique charm. Brother, just take me to see it." Zhu Jiumei pulled Sun Wukong's sleeve and shook it gently.

Sun Wukong looked at her eyes full of desire, and his heart softened: "Okay, Junior Sister, I will take you for a walk."

After saying that, Sun Wukong somersaulted onto the cloud and flew towards the Flower-Fruit Mountain with Zhu Jiumei.

Soon, they arrived above the Flower-Fruit Mountain. Looking down, they saw rolling hills and lush trees, but it lacked the liveliness and vitality of the past.

Sun Wukong frowned and muttered to himself, "Why is it so deserted?"

They landed at the foot of Huaguo Mountain and walked along the familiar path. Along the way, Zhu Jiumei looked around curiously.

"Brother, it's so beautiful here, but why can't we see the monkeys?" asked Zhu Jiumei.

Sun Wukong looked solemn: "I don't know either. Let me go check it out."

They arrived in front of the Water Curtain Cave, where the waterfall was still cascading down, splashing water everywhere. However, the monkeys that used to guard the entrance of the cave were no longer there.

Sun Wukong shouted loudly: "My children, I am back!"

The sound echoed in the valley, but there was no response for a long time.

Just as they were wondering, an old monkey came out of the cave tremblingly.

"My king, you are finally back!" The old monkey had tears in his eyes.

Sun Wukong stepped forward quickly and said, "Old Monkey, what's going on? Why is Huaguo Mountain so deserted?"

The old monkey sighed and said, "My king, after you left, a group of monsters came and occupied our Flower-Fruit Mountain. Many of our monkeys were injured and driven away by them."

When Sun Wukong heard this, he was immediately furious: "How could this happen! These monsters are so bold!"

Zhu Jiumei said, "Brother, don't be angry. Let's make a long-term plan and take back Huaguo Mountain."

Sun Wukong gnashed his teeth and said, "Don't worry, Junior Sister, I will not let these monsters off!"

They discussed countermeasures in the Water Curtain Cave.

"Brother, let's first investigate the monster's strength." Zhu Jiumei said calmly.

Sun Wukong nodded: "I will go right away."

Sun Wukong turned into a golden light and explored around Huaguo Mountain. Not long after, he came back and said angrily: "There are hundreds of monsters in this group. The leader is a black bear demon, and there are also several wolf demons and fox demons. Their strength should not be underestimated."

Zhu Jiumei pondered for a moment and said, "Brother, a head-on conflict would probably result in many casualties. We might as well use a trick."

"Junior sister, what good ideas do you have?" asked Sun Wukong.

Zhu Jiumei smiled slightly: "We can lure away some of the monsters first, and then defeat them one by one."

So, Sun Wukong and Zhu Jiumei began to act.

They deliberately made noise in a valley in Huaguo Mountain, attracting a group of monsters.

"Which monster is causing trouble here!" a wolf demon shouted loudly.

Sun Wukong jumped out from the woods: "Your Grandpa Sun is here!"

Seeing this, the wolf demons rushed towards Sun Wukong, but Sun Wukong fought and retreated, leading them far away.
