Chapter 676 Good Stuff!
At night, Gao Ge, together with the golden monkey and Doudou, walks on a dimly lit and lonely path of Shan City.
In the daytime, it will be too shocking and eye-catching if Doudou and the golden monkey appear in public. It is also now that he can take them out for a walk.
A couple happens to walk by in the distance. Although they are a bit far away, Gao Ge has good hearing. He can hear vaguely the woman say to the man next to her, “Hubby, look. The father is holding the hand of his son, walking their Tibetan mastiff together! How sweet!”
“Yeah. Honey, when we get married, let’s buy a Tibetan mastiff too!”
“Sure!”
Gao Ge is dragging the golden monkey and Doudou is walking ahead. Looking from behind, they do appear like a father holding his child’s hand, walking a dog together.
The golden monkey reaches out its hand to Gao Ge for a cigarette and then lights it up, saying slowly, “If it is not necessary, don’t put me into the trapping cage.”
“What’s wrong?”
“I cannot smoke then,” the golden monkey sighs and says.
Gao Ge chuckles and nods.
To his surprise, the golden monkey smokes so heavily now. It smokes two packs per day. More exasperatingly, the golden monkey becomes quite demanding. At first, it could make do with the cigarette pack that costs 2.5 yuan but now as its requirement becomes higher, it only smokes the 1916 Cigarettes and even takes two packs for a day. That is, the cigarettes that the golden monkey smokes one day cost 200 yuan. Luckily, it generally stays in the trapping cage so its craving for cigarettes can be somewhat contained. Otherwise, Gao Ge has to worry whether he can afford that.
“To be honest, actually, I think you are quite nice. Especially, you are so in love with your girl,” the golden monkey walks slowly and says. “Hence, I don’t need to worry since the fox spirit stays with you.”
“So, you are leaving?” Gao Ge’s heart skips a beat and then he hastens to ask.
The golden monkey says with a smile, “I did think so before but these days, I’ve perished the thought.”
“Oh? Why?” Gao Ge is relieved to hear that but he also feels quite confused. Has he done anything bad these days to make the golden monkey start to doubt his personality?
“Because I find that if I really leave, I will have no cigarettes then,” the golden monkey heaves a sigh and says.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtGao Ge is so speechless.
Doudou also can’t help turning around to take a look at the golden monkey. It also swears in secret not to get addicted to smoking like this senior if it becomes a monster too. Once it is addicted to smoking, it will be too humble. A monster at the realm of Grand Master can’t leave Gao Ge just for smoking? Humph. Doudou would rather jump from here and die outside than smoke a cigarette.
Gao Ge also finds it hard to comprehend.
The golden monkey is such a powerful monster but it chooses to compromise for a few packs of cigarettes…
It has been depraved!
What a shame!
But…
That’s exactly what Gao Ge likes about the golden monkey!
At the silent moment, a voice suddenly comes.
“Stop!”
Gao Ge subconsciously stops and frowns.
The golden monkey and Doudou are just like the carriage at the rear of the train. As Gao Ge stops, surely they also stop but they stare at Gao Ge with confusion.
Gao Ge realizes that it was the instrument spirit’s voice.
He takes a deep breath and snaps, “Can’t you say hi first when you wake up? Don’t just show up and speak out of the blue!”
“There is good stuff nearby. You don’t want it?” The instrument spirit sneers.
Gao Ge is a bit surprised. Standing here, he doesn’t feel any Qi.
“Humph. You don’t believe me? As I say there is good stuff here, there must be. Do you want to have a bet with me?”
“No,” Gao Ge says. “I never bet on something I’m unsure of.”
The instrument spirit is not shocked by Gao Ge’s cheekiness.
“What is the good stuff you refer to?”
“I don’t know.”
Gao Ge is taken aback. He starts to suspect whether the instrument spirit is fooling him but on second thought, it is not likely. After all, the instrument spirit doesn’t get along with him. Maybe they just haven’t adapted to each other. Of course, neither Gao Ge nor the instrument spirit has thought about having a run-in period.
“It is probably in the north,” the instrument spirit says. “Although I don’t know what it is, there must be good stuff.”
Gao Ge thinks about it and then starts to turn left.
“Gao Ge, what’s wrong?” The golden monkey asks.
“I don’t know,” Gao Ge says with a bitter smile.
The golden monkey touches its chin and suddenly feels Gao Ge is unreliable.
Under the guidance of the instrument spirit, Gao Ge keeps walking north and takes on a path. The path looks desolated for a long time. There are not even lights on both sides but a large stretch of birches.
Luckily, the leaves have fallen now. Otherwise, the rustling of the leaves would sound creepy.
“Are we there yet?” Gao Ge has become a bit impatient.
“Don’t rush. Keep walking. Well… The feeling gets stronger and stronger,” the instrument spirit says.
To be honest, sometimes, Gao Ge even wants to get the instrument spirit out and beat it up.
If he can get it out.
“Stop!” While Gao Ge is lost in thought, the instrument spirit says again.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmGao Ge stops and turns his head to look around only to find that he is on an empty ground. There are lights ahead but they are a bit distant. After all, they have been in the suburbs of Shan City.
“Right here. I feel something good is down here,” the instrument spirit says.
Gao Ge sneers. “What? You want me to dig it up?”
“Yeah!” The instrument spirit asks curiously. “Don’t you want to hunt for treasures?”
What a boring game!
However, the instrument spirit always has grandiose aims but puny abilities. Incompetent as it is, it aims high. Otherwise, it will not keep complaining about Gao Ge’s weak competence.
Therefore, what the instrument spirit regards as good stuff must be good.
“What’s the range?” Gao Ge ponders for a moment and asks.
“Yeah, within a 50-meter radius around here,” the instrument spirit says.
Gao Ge is shocked instantly.
Holy crap. It will take him a few days to dig within such a range!
He may as well rent a bulldozer! What’s the problem with the instrument spirit?
“Here is the deal. You continue walking around and I will find a place where I can feel it most strongly,” the instrument spirit also realizes that it has gone too far so it hastens to say.
Gao Ge hums and starts to stroll around.
The golden monkey and Doudou stare at Gao Ge as if looking at an idiot.
He walks around on the waste ground alone at night.
Is he bewitched?
However, Gao Ge is thinking about another thing.
Although he is listening to the instrument spirit’s guidance, he still has a sense of achievement of taking the instrument spirit as the metal detector…
“Turn left and take three steps forward. Right here. Start digging,” the instrument spirit says.
Gao Ge waves at Doudou. Humph. He won’t do such a thing by himself anyway.
