The rice cake is white and waxy, exuding a fragrant and sweet taste.
The little monkey was quickly conquered and squeaked happily. He grabbed the rice cake with one paw and pointed forward with the other paw, which seemed to mean permission to pass.
The man who put down the rice cake swallowed and took a few tentative steps forward. The little monkey didn't respond.
I walked a few more steps, but still no response.
The man finally breathed a sigh of relief, strode over, and passed safely.
Just after he walked over, the little monkey stuffed the rice cake into his mouth. It tasted delicious. He threw the sign on the ground and disappeared immediately.
The others were stunned for a moment and hurriedly wanted to run over. Who knew the next second, the second monkey came out again, grabbed the sign and shook it: "Zhizhi!"
A snack for one person, and no one is allowed to pass without paying the protection fee!
Everyone: "..."
Rely on it!
These monkeys still work in shifts!
What else can we do? You can’t argue with monkeys as a human being.
And most people are discerning and can see that these are not ordinary monkeys, but real monsters. Although they are cute and cute with sharp teeth and claws, when they are really ferocious, it is not something that ordinary people can deal with.
Yes, pay the protection fee obediently.
Anyway, it’s just a piece of fruit, or a piece of snack, or even a candied haws, which is very cheap.
No matter how poor the people are, they don’t care about this.
But while some people were queuing up to pay, they couldn't help but whisper: "This is obviously a toll, right? Why do you call it a protection fee? Why are a group of monkeys protecting us..."
Little did they know that these ferocious and cute long-tailed monkeys had indeed driven away the bandits entrenched on the road and protected this path.
Otherwise, when ordinary people walk through this place, what they pay for is not just a little bit of worthless food, but also ruins their fortune, and may even endanger their lives.
This is Yun Xiaomo’s idea of a good solution once and for all.
Warriors all know that monsters attach great importance to their territory, and those who intrude without permission are likely to be attacked. Therefore, as long as there are long-tailed monkeys around, warriors will almost always take a detour.
Ordinary people are not threatening and will not be regarded as intruders by the long-tailed monkeys. They only need to pay a small price to pass by safely.
As for the long-tailed monkeys, even though they have changed their territory, they can get the human food they like but cannot usually get, which is definitely not a loss.
Killing three birds with one stone in this way will completely solve the hidden dangers.
"It's barely okay." Jun Wuchen commented on Xiaotuanzi's method, appearing very reserved.
Xiaotuanzi's reaction to this was, "Huh~!"
Who cares about his evaluation.
After taking the shortcut, the distance between the two cities was shortened a lot. Coupled with the speed of the unicorn horse that travels thousands of miles a day, the group successfully arrived at Nanning City in the early morning of the next day.
The city guard of Nanning City, surnamed Li, had received the news of His Royal Highness King Jing's arrival early. He was so frightened that he led his people to wait at the city gate before dawn the next day.
The sky was drizzling, and it was raining non-stop.
At the gate of Nanning City, people dressed in raincoats and holding umbrellas lined up in a long queue with their families in tow. Although crowded, they entered the city in an orderly manner.
In order to welcome the arrival of His Highness King Jing, Li Chengshou specially opened a green passage and blocked it off with a fence. At this moment, he was standing nervously at the city gate, rubbing his hands anxiously and walking back and forth.
Looking forward to it.
Not long after, a vigorous and neat team emerged from the drizzle in the distance.
