A Delightful Trip to Water Curtain Cave

"We should do our best as hosts and bring out all the best food and drinks to treat him properly."

"By the way, my friend's name is Ou Ba. It's a very catchy and cool name, right?"

You can just call him by this name.

Sun Wukong pointed to Nezha and introduced him to all the little monkeys, and specifically instructed them to call Nezha Ou Ba.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

After receiving instructions from Sun Wukong, all the little monkeys answered in unison.

"Come with us! What are you standing there for, Ou Ba? Come on!"

At this moment, two little monkeys stretched out their hands to Nezha, seemingly wanting to take her somewhere. Nezha was about to ask them to lead the way, but after hearing them call her "Ou Ba," Nezha so happy that she forgot to speak and let them pull her to a seat.

"Thank you, thank you all."

After he sat down, Nezha remembered to thank them. First, he thanked them for their enthusiasm in showing him the way, and second, he thanked them for calling him "Ou Ba".

"It's nothing. You're the king's good friend; it's only right that we do all this."

After hearing Nezha's thanks, a little monkey turned around and said...

"Ou Ba, come, try this wine. It's a passion fruit wine that we brewed for almost half a year using over 100 different ingredients, including flowers, fruits, and honey. And this jar you're drinking is one of the best passion fruit wines we've ever made."

"This is the first batch of passion fruit wine we brewed using the finest ingredients six months after the King went to Heavenly Court to take up his post. We wanted it so that the King could have a taste when he returned. But we never expected that the King would be gone for more than 10 years, and this first batch of passion fruit wine, specially prepared for the King, has been sealed underground for nearly 10 years."

Not long after Nezha sat down, a little monkey came over carrying a jar of fine passion fruit wine. While pouring the wine for him, the monkey told him the story behind the wine.

However, after hearing the Nezha call him "Ou Ba," Nezha was so happy that he forgot everything else. He just stood there laughing foolishly while drinking the passion wine that the little monkey poured for him one after another. The whole thing the little monkey said was as if he hadn't said anything at all; Nezha didn't remember much of it.

"Ou Ba, Ou Ba, are you even listening to me?!"

The little monkey saw Nezha laughing so happily, like an idiot, so it waved its hand in front of her face, called her "Ou Ba" twice, and asked her if she had heard what it had just said.

"Yes, yes, I've been listening the whole time."

After hearing the little monkey call him "Ou Ba" twice more, Nezha finally realized what was happening and quickly replied.

"I have to say, your passion fruit wine is absolutely top-notch! The wine I drank where I was before wasn't even this good. It's so delicious! Could you get me another jar?"

Fortunately, Nezha reacted quickly and found an excuse to brush off the little monkey's question.

"Okay, Ou Ba wait a moment."

Hearing that the King's friend, Oppa, really liked the passion fruit wine brewed by his little monkeys, he was very happy. When he heard that Nezha wanted to drink another jar, he quickly ran to the place where he usually buried the wine and dug up a jar for him.

"Ou Ba, your wine is here."

"By the way, I just heard you say that the wine you used to drink wasn't much better than our passion fruit wine. I wonder where you used to live?"

The little monkey who carried the wine for Nezha earlier returned with a jar of passion fruit wine. After calling Nezha "Oppa," he asked where he used to live.

When it came to the question of his true identity, Nezha was finally not charmed by the little monkey's "Oppa" this time.

"I used to live in a city that wasn't too big or too small, the closest city to the west of Flower-Fruit Mountain."

Nezha reacted quickly and made up an excuse to brush off the question again. However, what he said was indeed the truth. He had been drinking the fresh wine from the Heavenly Court for hundreds of years. This time, when he came to Sun Wukong's Water Curtain Cave as a guest, he really did not expect to be able to drink passion fruit wine, which was pure, natural, pollution-free, and undiluted.

"Oh, is that so? Then, Ou Ba continue drinking. If you need anything, just let us know."

After getting the answer, the little monkey didn't press the matter further. He told Nezha to call them if he needed anything, and then left.

"Ou Ba, Ou Ba, come and try our cooking!"

"Eat without worry, we've already picked out the bones."

Just then, two little monkeys came running over, carrying two large, tender, and juicy grass carp weighing about five or six pounds each, which had already been grilled. They placed the carp on the stone bank in front of Nezha so that he could taste their grilling skills.

That's right, these two little monkeys are two of the monkeys that were captured by the Demon Tiger Demon King to catch fish for him, although they have been rescued by Sun Wukong.

However, they did not forget their grilling skills when Sun Wukong was entertaining guests. They used their skills, which they had honed for more than ten years, to catch two large grass carp, grill them, and bring them to Nezha. They even carefully removed all the fish bones for Nezha.

"Awoo."

"This is so delicious! I haven't had such good food in ages."

Nezha didn't stand on ceremony. He took a big bite, chewed it, and swallowed all the fish meat. Then, he gave a thumbs-up to the two little monkeys grilling the fish.

Nezha hadn't lied to them about staying in Heavenly Court for so long. There were only a few things to eat, and he had rarely returned to the mortal realm over the years, let alone eaten mortal food. Besides, these two little monkeys had been roasting fish for over ten years, so their skills were indeed quite good, and Nezha quickly had a delicious meal.

"Then we'll go and give you two more tests."

Hearing Nezha's praise and seeing how much he enjoyed eating the two little monkeys, he was very happy. He said something to Nezha and ran towards the place where he usually grilled fish.

"Ou Ba, please try some of our fruit. It's all freshly picked."

At this moment, about a dozen little monkeys lined up in front of the stone table Nezha was sitting, and one after another dripped the fruit they had just picked from outside.

"Thank you, thank you."

Nezha cut a peach that a little monkey offered him, took a big bite, and thanked them indistinctly.
