Chapter 496: Constant Trouble (4)
"Thin monkey, bring the wine to Lao Tzu!"
"Thin monkey, come here and hang your shoulders for Lao Tzu!"
"Thin monkey, didn't you hear you called, hurry up and bring Lao Tzu over!"
In the small courtyard where Catherine's mother and daughter lived, a group of people were getting drunk, and on the side, a thin figure with a humble smile on his face was running around sweating profusely.
The thin figure is the monkey who followed Lei Hu at the beginning, since the death of Lei Hu, the good days of the monkey have come to an end, there used to be Lei Hu on the cover, everyone is in a hurry for the monkey who has no ability at all, but in my heart I actually look down on him.
Now that there is no Thunder Tiger umbrella, everyone no longer has to hide it, and they are bullying the thin monkey in a different way.
For his own situation, the thin monkey himself also has a very clear understanding, so he has been a man with his tail between his legs for a long time, and he has an attitude of obedience to all the abuse and suppression.
In the dead of night, the thin monkey also missed the days when Lei Hu was still there, not that he was so loyal to Lei Hu, but he sighed that he had just seen that the future had hope, and the future became bleak after a few days.
The thin monkey, who was distracted by cranky thoughts, was slapped with a big mouth coldly, and a wisp of blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth, and then he came back to his senses.
However, the thin monkey didn't dare to show the slightest anger, but made a lot of compensation. When the other party saw that the thin monkey didn't fight back and scolded and didn't fight back, I just smiled and greeted the scoundrel, and suddenly felt very bored, and after scolding a few more words, I continued to drink.
Seeing this, the thin man secretly breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, at the beginning, the group of drunks in front of him were just looking for a reason, no matter how many or twenty-one places they would beat him, but over time, seeing that the thin monkey had no intention of resisting, he slowly felt tired. Now, except for the occasional person who will beat the thin monkey when he is not happy outside, there are few people who do it to him again, which can be regarded as a blessing in misfortune.
In the small courtyard, the drunks at the wine table became more and more excited, seeing that there were more and more empty jars in the corner, and they were about to beckon the thin monkey who was smiling carefully on the side to buy more wine, but the door of the small courtyard was directly pushed open.
Seeing this, the drunks couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and they didn't know if it was because of the effect of alcohol, or if they were like this, the drunks slapped the table fiercely, rolled up their sleeves and wanted to teach the bastard who didn't open his eyes to disturb their "Yaxing".
But before the leading drunkard could take a few steps out, after seeing clearly the shining armor on the person who came, and the iron token symbolizing the city lord's mansion on his waist, the drunkenness disappeared in an instant, and he changed into a small face like a thin monkey on the side, and hurriedly greeted him.
After Lei Hu's death, their original subordinates also lost the care of the City Lord's Mansion, and they have not been very comfortable in recent days.
"Hehe, my lord, the little one's name is Sly, I don't know what you do, sir, even if you tell us, we will definitely exceed the task!"
"Slae, I don't know!" "The guards came to find a person nicknamed Monkey on the order of the city lord to interrogate, and naturally they wouldn't talk nonsense with the group of people in front of him who were obviously drunk, "On the order of the city lord, I came to find a person nicknamed Monkey, if any of you know this person, please tell me quickly!"
Hearing this, the drunks were stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked at the thin monkey in the corner who also looked confused. However, most people felt that he had committed a crime, and if he was arrested and punished, they couldn't help but smile gloatingly.
Following everyone's gaze, the guard also spotted the shivering thin monkey in the corner, and knew that this person should be the target of his mission, so he strode towards it.
Seeing the guards getting closer and closer to him, the thin monkey became more and more nervous, and like everyone else, he also felt that he was hated by the city lord for some reason, and he wanted to run away, but his feet were motionless as if they were filled with lead, and he could only watch the guard stand in front of him, looking at himself with scrutinizing eyes.
"Are you a monkey?" the guard couldn't help frowning when he saw that the other party was trembling and looking as if he might fall down at any moment.
The thin man was so nervous that he couldn't speak, but the upper and lower rows of teeth were constantly fighting, making a crisp sound of "bang-bang".
Seeing this, the guard frowned and asked again, but still did not receive a response.
The thin monkey didn't speak, but the drunks who were waiting to watch the excitement were impatient, and immediately one of them laughed with wine in his mouth and said, "This lord, you don't need to ask, we can all testify that he is a monkey." You don't have to worry, he's not dumb, it's just that he looks like he's about to pee his pants now, you have a lot of them, and you're always ready, don't get, hahaha......"
There was a burst of laughter, but it made the thin monkey blush.
The guards were not affected by the drunks in the slightest, and their eyes lit up when they heard this: "Are you really a monkey?"
The thin monkey had calmed down a lot, and then he found that the expression on the guard's face didn't seem to be very harsh, and he couldn't help but wonder if he was too careful, so he cautiously asked: "My lord, I'm a monkey, I don't know what is wrong with you?"
After confirming the identity of the thin monkey, a smile finally appeared on the guard's face: "It's good that you are a monkey, come with me, the city lord has something to ask you." ”
Seeing the smile on the guard's face, the thin monkey's heart was settled, and his mind became active, and he immediately realized that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to change his current fate, and immediately politely said to the guard, "The old annoyance master leads the way."
Before leaving, the thin monkey had a meaningful smile on the corner of his mouth, and glanced back at the drunks who had not yet recovered from the sudden change, and then left the small courtyard behind the guard.
On the side, seeing that things were developing in a completely different direction than they expected, the drunks couldn't help but look at each other, not knowing why things had developed like this, and at that moment, some people scolded angrily, but when they thought of the smile of the thin monkey before leaving, they couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts, and secretly prayed that nothing that they wanted to see happen.
