The young mountain man Butz soon arrived here with a team of hunters.

The first thing they saw when they came here was a monkey lying here and sleeping.

The hunters drew their longbows and mounted their arrows, ready to shoot the sleeping monkey to death.

But Butz, the mountain man, broke free from the old hunter's hand and galloped over.

When he saw this monkey, he thought of yesterday's dream.

And deep down, there seems to be a voice that has been reminding him that there will be great benefits to taking this monkey in.

"Little one, are you dizzy, or are you stupid? This wild monkey, daring to appear in our hunting grounds, is a sign that there is a group of monkeys behind him. If we don't kill him today, and he returns safely to his own group, more monkeys will take our hunting grounds as an ownerless forest, take over them, and attack us. Instead of fighting with a group of monkeys for territory in the future and killing them monkeys, it is better to kill this spy now and let the monkeys outside the hunting ground know that this place also has an owner, get out of here, otherwise I will be unkind to you. The old hunter with his bow and arrows roared at the mountain man Butz, but the fingers of his hands were as steady as Mount Tai, without the slightest trembling, and he could fire the arrows on his longbow at any moment, and shoot the monkey that might wake up at any moment and die.

"Daddy, please let it go, I promise I won't let him hurt anyone else. Butz, the mountain man, took the sleeping monkey in his arms and spoke to the old hunter.

"Do you know that your kindness today may cause casualties when we fight with the monkeys?" The old hunters do not have the slightest mercy, and nature is the law of survival, they have this huge area of hunting grounds, and they are also obtained through hard work and killing, how can they give up to a group of monkeys, children in the cottage, old people and women What to eat?

And if there are monkeys in the mountains and forests, it will naturally attract other beasts and monsters to come, and at any time, even if the monkeys do not attack the cottage, those beasts and monsters will take the initiative to attack the cottage.

However, the old hunter did not confront the mountain man Butz, but seriously questioned him, if Butz continued to insist, then he would take it back and let the leader of the cottage deal with it.

Boots has a lot of power in the cottage, and if something really happens, their family will also bear the loss.

"Don't worry, Daddy, I can guarantee that this monkey will not harm anyone else, nor will it let the monkey group enter our hunters, just listen to me, I will be of great use." Butz pleaded with the old hunter.

The other hunters, except for two or three young people, were unbearable and wanted to intercede for Butz, but when they saw that several elderly hunters nearby not only did not speak, but stared at Butz coldly, they also opened their mouths, not knowing how to intercede.

This kind of thing, Butz's behavior is a woman's kindness, and there will be trouble in the future.

"You promise, what promise do you take? You can't even promise your own life. This wild monkey is the most vicious, believe it or not, after he wakes up, the first attack is you, if you are not careful, he may pick out your eyeballs. The old hunter hated that iron could not become steel, and said hatefully.

"I can guarantee that he won't hurt people and he won't hurt me. At this time, one of the witch spells and monkey spells in the body of the mountain man Butz transferred to his body through the steel metal arrow had already emitted a unique fluctuation, and the two mountain people Butz and the monkey in his arms were included in it.

The information between the two beings is exchanging rapidly, and it seems that they have lived together for decades, and they are very familiar with each other.

The mountain people pleaded with the old hunter again and again, and hugged the sleeping monkey tightly.

The old hunter looked at the mountain man Butz quietly, and felt that today's Butz was a little different from usual, he was the most sensible person, usually well-behaved and obedient, clever hands and feet, and flexible brain, how could he do such a stupid thing today, he wouldn't not know the consequences of doing this?

And what prompted him to do it regardless of it?

The old hunter glanced at the sleeping monkey and was going to take a look first, so he said, "Are you really going to save such a wild monkey?"

Butz didn't speak, but nodded with a resolute look in his eyes.

"I'll tell you in advance. Let's not talk about saving a scapegoat who is clearly a monkey colony. This kind of monkey is already an adult, but it is different from the monkeys you raised since childhood, they are wild and untamable, not to mention, uncertain temperament comes up, sneak attack, attack other people, if you bring it back to the cottage, what if the monkey attacks children and the elderly?

If there is a human life, will you pay for the death of the person who died unexpectedly? Let's not talk about it later, let's just talk about it now, how do you guarantee that after such a wild monkey wakes up, it will not attack other people?

In my opinion, even if you want to keep him, now break his limbs while he is asleep, and ensure the safety of all of us, so that he can continue to follow you. The old hunter coaxed and deceived, and said in a vicious tone, as if he did not agree with each other, and was ready to dismantle the wild monkey.

Butz shook his head stubbornly, and said in a pleading tone: "Daddy, please, don't hurt him? ”

"Your assurances are not convincing at all. If I take a boar and put it in front of you, and promise you that it will not hurt you, the boar will arch you to the ground and attack you in a frenzy. At that point, I wonder why I promise it doesn't work, what's the point?" said the old hunter with a blank face, wanting to see what else the little fellow could do?

"Wild boar, wild boar?" said the mountain man Butz in his arms with the sleeping monkey in his arms, whispering, thinking about the problem quickly, his eyes lit up, and he said loudly: "When I caught the wild boar, I led him into a trap, knocked him unconscious, tied his limbs and mouth with ropes, and carried back a huge live wild boar with my companions. Yes, we can tie up this monkey so that even if he wakes up, there is no way to hurt us, Daddy, do you think that's good?

And you don't believe what I say, I said that even if this monkey wakes up, it will not harm anyone else, and I will prove it to you. If an ordinary wild monkey wakes up and finds that he is tied up, he will struggle desperately, but I guarantee that this monkey will never struggle and roar after waking up, and he is definitely better than Rhubarb (the giant hunting dog of the Butz family). Dad, you just believe me once, I've grown so big, when did I lie to you. ”

"You lie to me when you don't have a lot of time, you little rabbit, where's my tobacco?" said the old hunter, who had listened well, and at once became angry when he heard the last sentence.

Mountain man Butz also knew that he had said the wrong thing, and this old man usually lied to him, so he immediately smiled and said, "I will make it up to you when I go back." ”

"Since that's the case, let's try it first!" After the old hunter finished speaking, he untied a slender and sturdy rope from his shoulder, threw it to the mountain man Butz, and instructed: "Tie me well with the method of strangling the ox, and we will check it carefully later, if you tie it wrong, we will not be soft, and we will go directly with a white knife and a red knife out, and the result is this wild monkey." How do I feel so unreliable about this? ”

"Reliable, reliable, absolutely reliable, you can always look at it. We have a lot of use for this monkey, maybe our cottage will be able to live a good life in the future. Butz took the rope and said flatteringly.

As he spoke, he quickly untied the rope and tied it quickly and hastily to the body and limbs of the sleeping monkey.

Soon the monkey was tied with ropes around his limbs, tail and mouth, ensuring that even if the creature woke up and fell into a frenzy, it would not cause harm to anyone around him, and he would not even be able to scream loudly.

After the mountain man Butz tied the monkey, the old hunter and the other hunters carefully checked the method of tying the rope, and determined that after the monkey really woke up, there was no way to really hurt them if they attacked them madly, but because of the violent struggle of the body, the rope tied to the strangled cow would become tighter and tighter, more and more painful, frantically consuming the monkey's physical strength and spirit, so that the monkey lost its strength in a short period of time, and did not have greater harm and threat.

"What do you think? I'm okay with the tie up, right?" said Butz, the mountain man, as he approached the old hunter with a flattering smile.

"Well done, better than before. The old hunter said with a smile, and there was some pride in his heart, little guy, you are still too tender, and my old man is fighting, and you still count the money for me after selling it. You don't have to do anything about it, you can tie up the monkey yourself, and when you get back, see how your uncle cleans you up."

When Butz heard this, he rubbed his hands together with a smile, and then, in order to divert his attention, said to his companion and the other hunters: "Not far ahead, even if I find a metal arrow made of steel, let's take two quick steps, and we will be there at once." ”

"All right, let's go!" said the old hunter, as he picked up the bound and sleepy monkey from the ground, and prepared to take it away in pieces.

"Dad, you rest, this kind of rough work, hard work, I'll do it, I'm young, strong, energetic, I'll come, I'll come." Butz said diligently, almost snatching from the old hunter's hand, he asked for the bound monkey, for fear that the old hunter would not give it to him, and he was afraid that the old hunter would catch the monkey, and he grabbed it, and suddenly killed the sleeping monkey.

"Okay, I'll leave it to you. The old hunter smiled, not paying attention to the movements of the mountain man Butz, and walked out first.

The other good hunters, who were older, followed the old hunter and walked forward.

Only two young companions approached the mountain man Butz with a hint of envy.

The group soon came to the place where Butz picked up the arrow yesterday, and successfully found the stone marker that Butz found when he left.

"Alright, let's scour the neighborhood carefully and see if there's anything else out of the ordinary in the neighborhood. The old hunter clapped his hands, attracted the attention of the others, and then spoke, commanding the others to act.

Then he said to the mountain man Butz, "Little one, put down your monkey and go up to the tree to keep watch, and watch the neighborhood for us, and be wary of the wild beasts and monsters that may appear nearby." In the wilderness, even in our hunting grounds, you can't be careless, you kid is careful, keep an eye on me, if it's really an accident, I'll take your monkey first. ”

"Yes, Daddy, don't worry. The mountain man Butz smiled and put down the monkey he was holding in his arms, and then in three or two clicks, he had already climbed a big tree, much more flexible than the monkey, staring around with a serious face, and his ears also collected the sounds of the surroundings, not letting go of any trace of possibility.

The hunters and their team searched a large area of the vicinity, and finally when it was almost dark, they found nothing.

There was some disappointment in a group of people.

They left the place, ready to rush back to the cottage as soon as possible.

Before the sky was completely dark, the mountain man Butz and his party finally returned to the cottage.

But this is not the end of the matter, Butz is stopped holding the monkey.

Soon, the leader of the cottage, Kale, that is, the uncle of the mountain man Butz, Butz's mother, his mother's uncle, second uncle, uncle, and other relatives, as well as the leader of the hunter team in the cottage, all came to the vicinity of the suspension bridge of the cottage.

At this time, the leader of the cottage, Butz's uncle Kale, had a pale face, suppressed his anger, and said to Butz in a flat tone: "Just because you look at this spy who is obviously sent by other monkeys, you want to adopt him? Do you know that such a wild monkey can easily hurt people, and even if an accident happens, it will kill people." ”

"What about the big dog still biting? Didn't you kill all the big dogs in the cottage?" said Butz, the mountain man, with his head down and his mouth muttering, in a very small voice, and the others were far away and did not hear it.

"What do you say, say it again?" said the leader of the cottage, Kale, with a roar.

Mountain man Butz suddenly raised his head and said: "It has been proved that this monkey is very well-behaved, very cute, and most importantly, he is very obedient. Shall we take him in?"

"Oh no! If your father had found out, he would have broken your leg. Butz's mother said loudly, with a sadness in her tone that hated iron but not steel.

"Twenty years ago, in this mountain forest, in another cottage, there was also a young hunter who saw a monkey. At that time, it was a small, skinny, white-haired monkey, and the monkey was still injured in the leg at that time. Despite the opposition of his family, the young hunter insisted on adopting the white-haired monkey. Later, the white-haired monkey recovered from his injuries and fled.

It didn't take long for the group of monkeys to appear, then the beasts, then the goblins and kobolds. Finally, one night, a group of gnolls and an ogre broke through the cottage, and the people in the cottage died and fled. The entire cottage was completely destroyed. The leader of the cottage, Kale, said with a pained expression.

The mountain man Butz couldn't say anything, he seemed to have guessed something in his heart, no wonder his uncle did not allow a monkey to appear in his cottage hunting ground, and if one appeared, he would have to kill it even if he took great pains.

"That young, reckless, reckless, stubborn hunter who doesn't think about the consequences is me. Kalekale, the leader of the hill people, said.
