Chapter 205 Locusts Are Coming 1

Therefore, upon seeing Helian Jiao, she immediately became terrified and began to whine and beg for mercy, while repeatedly bowing and waving.

The sika deer lay obediently on the ground without moving, looking even more docile than a domesticated rabbit.

Upon seeing the monkey bowing and begging for mercy, Chen Erbao exclaimed in surprise, "Look! This monkey is bowing and wishing us a Happy New Year!!"

None of the monkeys he had ever seen before knew how to bow and wish others a Happy New Year!

Young Master Gu remained calm. He had seen monkeys perform acrobatics before and knew that monkeys were more intelligent and spiritual than other animals.

The little princess remained completely unfazed; in her original world, there were sentient animals everywhere.

No one responded, but Chen Erbao didn't feel embarrassed. He excitedly reached out to touch the monkey's fur.

The monkey became even more frightened, and tears welled up in its eyes, its blurry, tearful eyes evoking sympathy in people's hearts.

Chen Erbao was still a teenager, and his heart softened instantly: "It looks so pitiful that it's tied up like that, why don't we let it go?"

I completely forgot that just two minutes ago I was so angry that I wanted to beat the monkey that stole my fish.

Helian Jiao said firmly, "No! It stole my fish!"

Only incompetent dragons would let a thief who steals their food get away unscathed!

Whether the monkey could understand human speech or not, it actually bowed and kowtowed to Chen Erbao and Gu Tingyun, its watery eyes filled with pleading and longing.

Chen Erbao softened even more, scratching his head and saying, "But the fish has already been eaten, so even if it vomits it up, it can't come back."

Young Master Gu also spoke up, coaxing the little hamster, "Sweetie, monkey meat is not edible, and keeping it is a waste of food. Let's release it, and then come to my house to eat ham, okay?"

Helian Jiao thought about it and realized it was true, so she reluctantly nodded: "Alright, I'll spare its life this time!"

She wasn't a powerless dragon; the evil dragon made her release her.

The monkey immediately shook its head and waved its hands, chattering loudly to indicate that it would never dare to steal the Demon King's food again!

Chen Erbao excitedly stepped forward, wanting to loosen the rope and release the monkey, but Gu Tingyun said, "If you release it here, it will be caught by the nearby villagers. Let's take it to the foot of the mountain and release it."

Although most people don't eat monkey meat, it's really lacking in oil.

So Chen Erbao untied the rope from the fence and happily ran ahead with the monkey.

The three of them soon reached the foot of the mountain, and seeing their home so close at hand, the little monkey's eyes revealed a hint of longing.

Gu Tingyun stepped forward and untied the rope for him, saying, "Don't go down the mountain to steal food again next time."

After the rope was loosened, the little monkey didn't rush away. Instead, it bowed respectfully to the three people before turning around and darting into the woods.

It nimbly swung back and forth between the trees a few times before disappearing from the three people's sight.

August is just around the corner, which is the busiest time of year for the villagers.

The rice in the fields is ripe and plump, and the rainfall this year has been good. As the most important source of food for the whole village, many people are looking at the fields with longing eyes, thinking that they will finally be able to fill their stomachs this year.

The commune originally planned to organize all the labor force in the last few days of the month to rush to harvest the rice.

But that morning, just as dawn broke, the village's newly installed loudspeaker blared the brigade leader's voice: "Every household, hurry and take your things to the fields to harvest the rice! Locusts are here! Locusts are here! Every household, hurry and take your things to the fields to harvest the rice! Locusts are here! Locusts are here!"
