All the heavens begin with the mind-monkey.
Chapter 4, 1 stick
The horror movie has started...
The atmosphere among the group immediately became tense.
Outside the open door, some emergency lights were still on, but they were flickering.
This scene, which looked like the opening of a horror movie or novel, made everyone's heart race.
Just then, everyone saw two middle-aged men carrying briefcases swaggering out.
Zheng Zha was startled by the sight. He lowered his voice and said, "Don't wander around! This is your first horror movie. You haven't been enhanced and are much more vulnerable than us. You're more likely to die if you encounter the dangers in a horror movie. Even if we're gathering intelligence, it should be us who go out."
Just then, the bald man who had been standing not far from the group sneered and said, "You think they went out to gather intelligence?"
While the group was talking, the remaining couple of white-collar workers also went out, followed by three thugs who were acting like madmen.
Zheng Zha could still hear the two middle-aged men carrying briefcases who had walked out first chuckling, "They thought we didn't know? Just some random movie scene and a few shills and they think they can scam money? They should spend more money! Sun Wukong, the Great Sage Equal to Heaven? If he's Sun Wukong, the Great Sage Equal to Heaven, then I'm the Buddha! Haha!"
"If you're the Buddha, then I'm the Jade Emperor!"
The group walked further and further away, and their voices gradually faded away.
Zheng Zha then realized that the newcomers didn't believe what they were saying at all.
He turned his head and looked around. Among the crowd, the only ones left were the bald young man, a very strong-looking foreigner, Chu Xuan, another clever-looking young man who looked like a college student, and finally Monkey King.
At this moment, the remaining three newcomers who had not yet introduced themselves came forward and each gave their own introductions.
Zheng Zha then realized that, apart from the seemingly ordinary young man, their horror movie also included a professional assassin, an international mercenary, and even Chu Xuan, who was surprisingly intelligent, was actually a senior colonel.
Zheng Zha glanced at everyone and then said, "Zhan Lan, tell me, what should we do next?"
Although there was a senior colonel like Chu Xuan present, Zheng Zha seemed to trust Zhan Lan, who had offered advice during the previous horror movie, more when it mattered most.
Zhan Lan immediately began to think about it. She said, "No matter what, the most important thing now is to find out the information. We don't know what stage the outside story has reached. Also, those newcomers running out, we don't know if they will cause any butterfly effects. But I think our best option right now is not to stay where we are."
After discussing it, the group decided to follow the newcomers outside.
Just before leaving, Zheng Zha seemed to remember something. He turned to look at Zhe Xingsun and said, "Brother Monkey, calling you Brother Monkey all the time isn't very formal. In the beginning, there was no nature; to break through the stubborn void, one must awaken. You're a monkey, so why don't you take the surname Sun and the Dharma name Wukong? From now on, we'll call you Sun Wukong, okay?"
Upon hearing Zheng Zha's words, Zhe Xingsun's eyes lit up. He clasped his hands together in a deep bow and said, "Very good! From today onwards, he shall be called Sun Wukong!"
His cheerful and enthusiastic demeanor somewhat eased the tense atmosphere that had been hanging over everyone.
The group then walked out the gate and chased after the direction the newlyweds had gone.
They had been lingering in the room for a long time, and when they came out, the newlyweds were no longer in sight.
What's puzzling is that there seems to be some problem inside the shop outside the gate; the lights are flickering, and only the emergency lights are constantly on.
Seeing this, Zheng Zha said with some concern, "I don't think this scene appeared in the original story, right? Is there a problem with the power? Is no one maintaining it? Have all the characters in the story been killed by the aliens? Will this spaceship also have problems after a while?"
If that happens, he'll be finished no matter how capable he is!
Chu Xuan glanced around and said, "Don't worry, it's probably just a problem with the power distributor causing issues with the light circuits. The spaceship itself should be fine."
Zheng Zha looked surprised, wondering how Chu Xuan had figured it out. Finally, Zhan Lan said, "Don't forget we're in space. If the spaceship's power were to malfunction, we shouldn't be on the ground right now; we should be floating in the sky, right?"
Zheng Zha then realized what was going on.
Just then, a scream suddenly came from afar.
Zheng Zha and the others exchanged a glance and immediately set off in that direction.
It must be one of the new recruits who escaped earlier; they must have encountered some danger and are screaming in pain.
Zhe Xingsun followed behind, holding a short black stick, when suddenly someone pulled him.
Turning around, he saw Li Xiaoyi standing behind him, saying, "Brother Monkey, stick close to us. If we encounter danger, just follow the captain and run. The captain is Zheng Zha; he has some skills. Even in the most dangerous situation, if one of us survives, he might become the captain."
He muttered these words in a low voice and followed them.
Seeing this, Zhe Xingsun scratched the back of his hand, gripped his short stick tightly, and followed.
The short stick that had felt just right in my hand before now felt light and airy, as if I were holding a reed instead of a stick.
The group traveled quickly and soon arrived at the place where the screams had occurred.
Because everyone ran very fast, when they arrived at the destination, they just happened to see the newlyweds scattering and running away.
The woman from the previous white-collar couple had a large hole in her chest and was lying dead on the ground; the man had been broken in two by an alien and was being carried away by it towards the ventilation duct.
Upon seeing Zheng Zha and his group arrive, the alien showed no fear, turning its head to stare at them and letting out a threatening roar.
Seeing this, Zheng Zha could no longer restrain himself. He immediately took a grenade from his waist and pounced over.
Upon seeing this, the alien immediately abandoned the man's corpse, and its long tail shot out from between its legs towards Zheng Zha.
At the critical moment, Zheng Zha widened his eyes, dodged to the side, and shoved the grenade into the ventilation duct behind the alien. Then he kicked off the ceiling and jumped down.
In less than a second, the grenade exploded, spilling a large amount of acid.
Many specks of acid landed on Zheng Zha, causing him to grimace in pain.
But the only good news was that he had just heard the reward notification from the Supreme God.
Just as he was about to share the good news with everyone, Zheng Zha suddenly stared at what was behind them, his pupils shrinking.
Before he could issue any warning, only Ba Wang, Ling Dian, and Chu Xuan simultaneously bent down and lay prone.
Standing at the very back of the group was Li Xiaoyi.
Before Li Xiaoyi could react, he seemed to have guessed something from Zheng Zha's reaction.
He turned around, his mouth wide open, and saw a tall alien standing behind him, its body covered in a shiny black shell, its huge, slender head extending to its back, its mouth full of sharp spikes.
The alien's mouth opened its fangs at him, and its tongue shot towards Li Xiaoyi's head in an instant.
"It's over!" That was the only thought that flashed through Li Xiaoyi's mind.
The next second, a black light flashed, and when he reacted, he saw a short black stick piercing straight into the alien's mouth.
"Hey!" Zhe Xingsun shouted, gripped the black stick tightly, and stabbed it hard. The stick actually went straight through the alien's forehead, and then he snapped it off.
Li Xiaoyi heard a cracking sound, like bones being crushed. Then Zhe Xingsun kicked the alien with force, sending it flying more than ten meters away. It landed on the ground and then fell silent.
Only then did Li Xiaoyi realize what was happening. He opened his mouth, his voice trembling slightly, "Monkey...Brother Monkey..."
