"Little monkey, there is a curfew at night, where do we rest?" The sun is in the west, and it is not early. Seeing that the little monkey was still in a hurry, Shen Jiumei couldn't help it.

"I know that after two more hills, there is a cave in the mountain. The little monkey pointed ahead and said confidently, "The cave is almost at the top of the mountain, and the old man will go around the foot of the mountain at most at night, and he will not enter the mountain." I once missed time in the mountains, turned around for a long time, stumbled upon the cave, and spent the night in the cave. Rest assured, the cave is not big and safe. ”

It turned out to be a plan. Shen Jiumei nodded: "That's good." He didn't show it on his face, but secretly pinched Shen Qiubao's hand, signaling to be more vigilant and not to be fooled.

The latter came to his senses, pursed his lips, and was careful.

In the evening, the little monkey finally brought them to the cave. He didn't lie, the cave was indeed in a shady position near the top of the mountain. The entrance to the cave, which only allows two people to pass side by side, is hidden behind a large wild camellia. If you don't look carefully, you won't be able to find it.

The hole is not big, but it is dry, and there are no snakes and insects.

In the wilderness, it is very worry-free to have such a place to spend the night. Shen Jiumei nodded with satisfaction: "This place is well found." As long as we build a fire, we can rest here for the night. ”

"Yes, if you have a fire, there will be no wild dogs or anything like that at night. The little monkey raised his hands in agreement, and immediately proposed, "Before the sun sets, we will go outside to collect more firewood." ”

Shen Jiumei glanced at the sky outside the cave: "Seeing that it is about to get dark, let's split into two ways." Brother Yun was the youngest, and he couldn't hold much firewood, so he stayed and cleaned up the hole. Little monkey, you've been here, you're familiar with the ground, take me to collect firewood and fetch water. You see, is it okay to distribute it like this?"

Shen Qiubao immediately understood the eldest sister's intentions - the ninth sister was afraid that the little monkey would attack her, so she separated the two of them first.

Sure enough, the little monkey frowned and objected: "Barren mountains and wild mountains, do you really want to leave Yunwa alone in the cave? There is a mountain spring behind the mountain, not far from here." It doesn't take much time to come back and forth. Otherwise, let's go with the three of us. ”

Without waiting for Shen Jiumei to open her mouth, Shen Qiubao straightened up her small chest and said: "I am a mountain baby, I am used to staying in the mountains, so I am not afraid." In his heart, the little monkey was bent on plotting against their two siblings, which was far more terrible than wild dogs and the like!

The little monkey still didn't give up, and wanted to persuade one or two more.

"It's fine. Brother Yun is very capable. Shen Jiumei waved her hand arrogantly, "That's it." Little monkey, if we rub it any longer, it will be dark. ”

Afraid of her force value, the little monkey unwillingly followed out.

Shen Qiubao breathed a sigh of relief. At the end of the day, the little monkey stuck to him, tighter than a dog's skin plaster. He's tired of coping, he's really tired. Now that this guy has finally been broken away by the eldest sister, he has been tense for a day, and he can finally relax and relax.

Lying on the ground with his hands and feet to ease his mind, he touched the money bag in his belt, and felt inexplicably uneasy: because he knew that the little monkey was afraid that the black boss and others in the temple would not do it, so he slept with peace of mind last night. But, tonight, it's just the three of them in the cave. The little monkey has no scruples, and will definitely take advantage of their sister and brother to sleep soundly and get up in the middle of the night to steal money. He really can't stay awake all night and be on the lookout for little monkeys all the time.

What to do?

Scratching his head, Shen Qiubao thought about it - hide the silver elsewhere first, and get it back tomorrow morning when the little monkey was not paying attention.

In Niutouao, this is the most common method used by him and his friends. Ten uses and ten spirits, everyone has never missed a hand!

Yes, that's it!

Having made up his mind, Shen Qiubao turned over and got up, and circled in the cave: the hole is only the size of a palm, where should the two small packets of silver be hidden?

After searching for a long time, he finally hid the two small bags separately: one in the innermost corner, and the other in the wild camellia soil outside.

How to retrieve the two purses tomorrow morning, he also thought about it: first wake up early and get back the one in the cave, and then use the excuse of peeing to retrieve the one outside.

The little monkey can't think of it!

Shen Qiubao proudly patted the mud off his hands, turned around and returned to the cave, and began to clean up the gravel, dead branches and leaves on the ground.

He picked up a fist-sized stone, and the little monkey rushed in like a whirlwind.

"And a bag of money??" he held a small bag of silver coins wrapped in a white cloth in his hand, and asked with a cruel smile, "Be honest, hand it all over to Lao Tzu!"

Shen Qiubao was taken aback. However, he quickly came to his senses - just now, this guy was hiding outside, watching him bury the money!

Also, didn't the ninth sister go out with him?

He panicked: "Where is my ninth sister?"

"Hmph! Two native monkeys in the countryside dare to play with Lao Tzu!" The little monkey pursed his lips disdainfully, and slowly stepped forward step by step, "Don't inquire, Lao Tzu's name in the City God Temple! Just the two of you, Lao Tzu played before he was five years old!"

"What about my ninth sister?" Unable to take care of the small bag of silver money anymore, Shen Qiubao clenched the stone in his hand angrily, "What happened to you?"

"Hmph, it's not much! Lao Tzu is in a good mood today, and kindly advises you to put down the stone, so as not to hurt your own feet. The little monkey put the money into his arms with a smug face, and plucked his ears nonchalantly, "Native monkey in the countryside, do you really think that Lao Tzu can't beat the stinky girl?

"You!" Shen Qiubao burst out, "Bad guy!" As he spoke, he smashed the stone in his hand at the little monkey.

I didn't want to, but three steps away, the little monkey turned away and avoided it lightly. Immediately after, he strode forward and swung his fist with a "whew".

"Smack!"

Shen Qiubao's nose hurt. In an instant, it was dark in front of me, and then a piece of Venus shone brightly, and my mind went blank.

The little monkey kicked him down with a hideous face, sat down directly, grabbed his neck tightly with both hands, and asked viciously, "Where is the money?"

That look is like a terrible ghost who has just come out of hell!

It was like pressing a big mountain on his body, and Shen Qiubao suddenly couldn't breathe. He rolled his eyes, instinctively picked at those hands with one hand, and struggled to say, "Nine...... Sister...... Where, son?"

The little monkey was stunned.

"Phew!" He suddenly let go of his hands, and gave Shen Qiubao a slap casually, still in a vicious voice: "Your ninth sister was pushed down the mountain by me just now." ”

Buzzing in his ears, Shen Qiubao shouted sadly: "Ninth sister, ......" At the same time, he pushed people with all his body - fight!

"You'd better get acquainted with her, hand over that bag of money sooner, and look for her in the weeds down the hillside. If you're late, when she's fed the wild dogs, don't blame me for not reminding you. But the little monkey pressed on him, sat like a mountain, and interrupted impatiently.

"Buried over there!" Shen Qiubao wanted to find the eldest sister as soon as possible, and immediately pointed to the corner where the silver was buried, "It's all there!"

"Hmph, you're a clever kid!" the little monkey slapped him again, got up satisfied, and pointed out of the cave, "Get out!"

Where did Shen Qiubao dare to delay? As soon as his body was light, he immediately hurriedly got up and rushed out of the cave as fast as he could. There was only one voice in his heart: Hurry, hurry to the bottom of the hillside, and find the ninth sister!
