Looking at the "big pie" in front of him, Sun Dakong actually drooled and wanted to eat it very much. However, he was very good at calculating all his life and was naturally cautious every step. Even though he knew that passing through this water waterfall was the water curtain cave, he was still hesitant.

Once the problem of food and clothing was solved, Hou Xiaohua showed the intelligence that humans should have. She took two steps closer and quietly looked at Sun Dakong's side face and said, "Did the king say you want to enter this waterfall? No, the pool under the waterfall is too wide and very deep, and the waterfall flows so fast, it's too dangerous."

"Do you know that Xiaohua, except me in the monkey group, you are the smartest."

Sun Dakong smiled and said, "If I tell you that you can discover a beautiful and magical place just by jumping over this waterfall. It is not only safe, but also can accommodate all monkeys. It may even have beautiful clothes and tables, chairs and benches. Whether people or monkeys stay inside, they will be able to avoid illnesses and live for a hundred years. Will you try your best to get in such a good place?"

"Master, is there really such a place?" Hou Xiaohua looked fascinated by hearing this: "I want to bring Mom Monkey in to live with you! Let her live for an additional hundred years."

"You are a good girl, but you're still not smart enough."

Sun Dakong looked at the waterfall and said, "Little Flower, remember what I said. If one day you find that you can get huge benefits without paying any price, don't believe it, because this is definitely a scam! The greater the benefits, the greater the price. This is the irrefutable truth.

Also, if someone tells you that you don’t need any conditions to give you huge benefits. If this person is not your parents and relatives, you’d better kill him immediately! Because the greater the benefits the person promises, the more miserable it will cause you, and he is a liar!

But, people are always greedy, and how many people will reject unconditional benefits? So there are many people in this world who are deceived and blame themselves for their bad luck after being deceived. Do you think there is something more funny than this?"

Hou Xiaohua blinked: "The king said it makes sense..."

"You are indeed a smart girl, and you can teach me."

Sun Dakong nodded with satisfaction. Now he has become the Monkey King in Huaguo Mountain. He stays with a group of monkeys all day long. The meaning of hudding together for warmth is actually greater than mutual recognition. At least for now, he is more willing to get along with Hou Xiaohua. This girl is very smart and will remind him of the several female graduate students he brought in when he was in Yanjing.

"Smart children should learn to learn from one example. You can also understand this principle in the opposite way. If you have a good impression of a person and want to be friends with him, you must not give him too many benefits at once, otherwise not only will you not be friends, but the other party will also think that you are bad intentions. Because there is a saying in humans that "respectfulness is either a traitor or a thief" and there is also a saying that "the courtesy must be something for others"! Therefore, feelings and interests actually need to be exchanged with each other, which is more solid and credible than unilateral giving..."

Hou Xiaohua was a little confused. She didn't understand why the king said these words to her. Some of them could understand them, and some were confused. Sun Dakong actually didn't understand why she said these to her. Maybe it was because Hou Xiaohua and him were both humans? In this Huaguo Mountain, she unconsciously regarded this poor girl as the most caring person, and couldn't help but want to mention her a few words.

"Master, Master!"

Sun Dakong was so addicted to being a teacher. He was about to say a few more words to Hou Xiaohua, but he saw the old monkey Wen Jing running over from afar and gasping for breath: "Your Majesty is easy to find. I have searched half of the Huaguo Mountain, but I didn't expect the king to be here."

"Haha, I heard Xiaohua say that this is where the monkey mother picked her up, so I came over to take a look. I didn't expect the scenery was really good."

Sun Dakong was still hesitating whether to lead a group of monkeys into the water curtain cave, so he naturally would not tell Wen Jing at this time.

"King, today is the eleventh day of the lunar calendar. The monkeys in Huaguo Mountain pay homage to the gods of my hometown. The king has just ascended the throne, and whether he can get the recognition of the gods of my hometown is very important to the king."

"Oh, my god in my hometown?"

Sun Dakong was slightly stunned. Wu Chengen never mentioned the gods of his hometown in the book.

***

After listening to Wen Jing’s story, Sun Dakong understood what the god of his hometown was.

It turns out that in this world, animals with a little wise mind also have gods they worship, just like when humans are ignorant, various totem worship will also occur. Sun Dakong estimated that the great demon kings in Journey to the West would definitely not do such a thing that would reduce their identities. However, the monkeys in Huaguo Mountain have not become monsters. They are both a group of ordinary monkeys, and they can worship gods.

Now the statue of the god in my hometown has been placed in the cave of Wanhou, and there is an altar made of green stone in front of the statue. Sun Dakong was happy to see the offerings on the altar. In addition to a few kinds of fruits, there are also the "pie" he steamed a few days ago. It seems that the monkeys highly admire this kind of delicacy they made, and they actually roasted these cool pies with fire and heated them as offerings.

This statue of god is actually a monkey, but she is wearing golden armor and the weapon in her hand is a pair of Wu hooks, but she is not as sharp-mouthed and cheeks as ordinary monkeys. Her face is round and full of joy and wealth. Sun Dakong was just wondering where the craftsman from Huaguo Mountain could actually create such a lifelike statue of god.

"King, this honorable god is the god of our Monkey Clan's hometown, Lord Huo Monkey. Because the honorable god appeared ten years ago, the king took the memory of his true appearance and let the old minister create this statue..."

Old Wenjing saw that Sun Dakong was a little confused and quickly explained.

"Oh? I can't tell you are so talented." Sun Dakong was slightly surprised, but underestimated the old monkey. It didn't make him wonder if the monkeys would regard the Fire Monkey as the god of their hometown. The Fire Monkey is one of the twenty-eight constellations and is a monkey god. The monkeys worship monkeys naturally feel friendly. Moreover, the Fire Monkey has also come to Huaguo Mountain. If it weren't for ulterior motives, it would really want to take care of these believers of the same clan.

"I dare not be the praise of the king. The old minister's previous master was a talented man with three masters of poetry, calligraphy and painting. The old monkey followed his master and learned some skills."

Old Wenjing said again: "Please lead us to worship the monkeys and tell our hometown that the god Huaguo Mountain has newly established a king. Maybe the gods will personally descend to Huaguo Mountain."
