536 Thatched Cottage in the Woods
We were shocked: "What's wrong?"
Huang Jie said: "The meat fried with green peppers and tofu roasted with green onions just now is guaranteed to be eaten, and there is no leftovers!"
"That's good." The monkey exhaled and continued to move forward.
We also exhaled, and the monkey was shocked. What a big deal, right? Is it a helper to die?
"What, I'm not talking about this, Huang Jie, don't mislead my thoughts!" The monkey stepped on the brakes again and got out of the car in a panic.
We finally realized that something was really wrong this time, so we hurriedly got out of the car. The monkey walked around the rear of the car and lifted the trunk. We leaned over and took a look and took a breath. There were only two ropes inside, and Lu Li and Chen Yaodong were gone.
"When did you run?" Huang Jie frowned.
"It's probably when we have dinner." The monkey gritted his teeth.
Zheng Wu bowed down to check carefully and said, "This guy Chen Yaodong actually used brute force to break the rope... We still underestimated his strength."
"Damn, I want to kill them." Huang Jie's eyes were fierce. He said he wanted to kill, but he really wanted to kill.
I was so depressed that I kicked the wheel hard. But the person had already escaped, and we were running away, so we definitely couldn't go back and chased, so we had to continue driving forward. It felt like we could drive forward forty or fifty kilometers, and there were land where a little green seedling had just grown on both sides. It was just past Qingming Festival some time ago, and the mountains and fields were full of green, but it was still far from the lush appearance of summer. The monkey suddenly turned on the steering wheel and drove towards the land next to him.
I shouted, "Don't destroy other people's farmers' land!"
"Mao, take a closer look."
I stretched my neck and took a look. At first glance, there was a road that could accommodate a car in the wheat field that looked green. The road was winding and twists and turns, like a gossip map, and it was absolutely impossible to see on the national highway!
Monkey explained: "This is a small road I opened when I first came to Dongcheng more than two years ago. I bought the right to use it with the owner of this land for three years. I didn't expect that I finally used it today, hehe."
"I understand all you said. But why do you want to buy this road?" Zheng Wu asked.
"In order to avoid the police's tracing," I explained for the monkey, looking at the front of the windshield, which was a boundless wheat field at first glance. "The monkey arranged a way out for himself more than two years ago, and one day he would use it when he needed to run away. I believe that in front, there must be a place arranged by the monkey. There are beds, water, food, and various daily necessities, and maybe computers and WIFI."
The monkey laughed: "There are no computers and WIFIs, but there are others."
The monkey drove the car and turned around in the wheat field. In a blink of an eye, he embarked on a country road, passing through a lonely alley, a lonely street, a lively market, and a stone road with water beside him. He plunged into the woods behind a certain village.
The woods are full of trees!
"Be careful!" I yelled, pointing at a fir tree in front of me.
The monkey smiled, but when he was about to hit the fir tree, the car drove forward safely again. But if he avoided a tree, how could he hide from countless trees? This is a forest, and there are trees everywhere. I kept saying be careful, but the monkey can escape danger every time, and he will shook his tail from time to time, which scared me to the point.
"Zuo Fei, you were quite smart just now, why are you stupid again now?" said the monkey: "I can drive a small path in the wheat field, why can't I also drive a small path in the woods?"
After hearing the monkey's words, I realized that I carefully studied the surrounding environment. The seemingly lush and complex forests actually extended out a small path for cars. It was just as winding as before in the wheat fields. It was impossible to see without careful observation, and it was more difficult to detect than the small paths in the wheat fields.
I exhaled: "You arranged this too more than two years ago?"
"Since you want to do it, you must do the whole set." The monkey smiled.
"I don't understand. It's been more than two years. The path you arranged is unstoppable. I can't guarantee anything..."
"Of course there is." The monkey interrupted me: "I arranged people in the nearby villages and came to help me clear the road regularly. If there are any branches that fall by accident and the weeds that suddenly grow, they will be removed."
I nodded, and admired the monkey even more. I deserved to be the legendary fourth generation of black.
"Look at you that you were shocked just now, Huang Jie and Zheng Wu didn't say a word." The monkey continued.
I looked back and said, "Of course, if I could fall asleep, I wouldn't say a word."
The car drove forward for more than twenty minutes and suddenly stopped.
"It's here." The monkey pushed open the car door and walked down.
I also pushed open the car door and walked down. This was a very ordinary area in the woods. There were all kinds of trees around and there was a thatched hut thatched in front of me, which was the most common house for forest guards. There was also a gurgling sound of water coming from behind the house. I guess there was a stream surrounding it.
I also noticed that this area is in a higher terrain and you can observe the surrounding situation at any time, while this thatched hut is small and faintly hidden in the forest, naturally blending with this tree, and you can't even notice it when you are far away.
"Have you arrived?" Huang Jie and Zheng Wu also yawned out of the car.
"Here." The monkey took the lead in walking towards the thatched hut, and we followed one after another.
As soon as the monkey pushed the door, the light outside immediately shone into the room.
As I guessed, there are everything inside, bed, wardrobe, desk, chair, and a bookshelves at the base of the wall, filled with all kinds of books. As expected, this monkey cannot live without books at any time.
The room looks simple on the outside, but it is decorated very well inside, giving people a comfortable and warm feeling, as friendly as when you return home. With the quiet and beautiful environment around you, I just want to live here for a long time.
And I think the police can't find this place even if they want to break their heads?
"Is this too handsome?" Zheng Wu said.
"Why didn't we come out and run away early?" Huang Jie licked his lips.
I couldn't wait to go into the room and see what was going on.
"Oh..." The monkey grabbed me.
"What are you doing?" I turned my head.
"Take off your shoes, you're dirty and cleaned? My little wife didn't come!"
I looked down and saw that there was a carpet on the ground! A soft, thick and velvety wool carpet! I was convinced, but it was just a place to hide temporarily when I ran away, and it was probably not available for the rest of my life. It was so well decorated. I really don’t know what to say about monkeys.
The monkey seemed to see what I thought and smiled: "I was quite rich at that time, so I decorated everything according to the best. It's not like the one who is poor now - after all, can you lend me five dollars?"
I pretended not to hear this, took off my shoes and walked in. Monkey, Huang Jie, and Zheng Wu also took off their shoes and walked in.
The carpet is very comfortable to walk on, and it is even more comfortable than my home. I walked around the house and found more details that are not easy to detect. For example, furniture is a well-known Italian brand, and a cabinet of books is all genuine and unopened. Even an ordinary stool looks very valuable.
The monkeys at that time were really rich. Not bad, this is a bit of a black-blooded style. Not like now, a poor man can even give up his face for five yuan. He has been in the east and thirty years, Hexi for thirty years. And I also found that there was no gray on it, no matter whether it was furniture or carpet.
"Someone comes back regularly to clean?" I asked.
"Yes."
"As well a person from a nearby village?"
"Yes."
"Aren't you afraid that he will sell all these valuable furniture for money?"
"Not afraid." said the monkey: "Because I told him that I will keep this place for three years. After three years, no matter whether I have lived in it or not, all the things in it will belong to him. If it is less than three years, he will sell the things here...I told him that I will kill his whole family."
I squeezed my cold sweat and thought to myself that the monkey is really good at scaring people.
After visiting the main house, the monkey took us to visit the kitchen again. There were everything in the kitchen, and even the dishes were fresh! There was no need to ask, it seemed that people would come to deliver them regularly. I couldn't even think about how much of this cost was needed.
"It's pretty good," I said, "But I also saw that there is only a single bed in the main room. When you designed it, you only considered yourself. So how should we sleep for a few nights?"
"You guys sleep on the floor. This carpet is so comfortable..." Before the three of us beat him up, the monkey quickly changed his words: "I'm having fun with you, there's a room upstairs." We looked up and saw that there was indeed an attic. Damn, this is not thatched hut, it's clearly a vacation villa.
The monkeys moved out the ladder from the back of the house and we went to the attic one by one. The upper floor was much wider, and it was the place where we sleep. There were seven or eight beds, which could be called the bedroom.
It was afternoon when the sun shone through the window and covered the entire bedroom, as comfortable as possible.
"This place is really nice." I sighed: "If one day I get tired of fighting and killing, I can still come back here to live a secluded life."
"I think so too." The monkey smiled. But for him, it is impossible to return here if he is the head of the family. If he is not the head of the family, he will be dead, so this can only be a dream for him.
Huang Jie said: "How can that be? Although this place is comfortable and it's okay to come on vacation occasionally, the bright lights and wine outside are more attractive." He has always longed for money and power, so it's not surprising that he can say such words.
"It doesn't matter to me. As long as Su Yi is there, I feel happy everywhere." Zheng Wu was also quite happy.
"By the way, what is that?" I suddenly pointed to the row of boxes piled up in the corner of the wall.
"You guess?" The monkey's eyes flashed with a cunning light.
