Pei Ji is good at drinking, and Chu Huan's drinking capacity is not weak. Half a pot of wine is like a drop in the bucket, but it has bottomed out in a short while. Pei Ji is a little embarrassed, and said: "There is not much wine. If possible, I will invite you to drink next time."

Chu Huan said with a smile: "Brother Pei set up a stall by Qinshui, is it because he is really short of money?"

Pei Ji thought for a while, then shook his head and smiled wryly: "Actually, I'm starting to understand that sometimes money is really useful." He sighed softly: "The capital city is no better than Hexi. If you want to live here, you can't live without money." I looked over the small wooden house where I lived, and said lightly: "Today you can sit and drink with me here, and in a few days, I'm afraid you won't even be able to stay in such a place."

Chu Huan was already very curious in his heart, why did Pei Ji come to the capital all the way because of his disability?Why did he fall into such a predicament again?

Pei Ji seemed to see what Chu Huan was thinking, and said with a smile: "Qin Shui's chess game is also for the purpose of earning some rent and food money, and I will find another place to set up a new stall tomorrow."

Chu Huan frowned and said, "Why doesn't Brother Pei go back to Hexi?"

"Hexi?" Pei Ji shook his head and said, "At least I can't go back now."

At this moment, a strange sound was heard suddenly, the sound was like the roar of an ape, it came out of nowhere, but it surprised Chu Huan, but Pei Ji frowned and said, "I'm sorry." Standing up , actually dragged his lame leg and walked out quickly.

Knowing that something must have happened, Chu Huan was puzzled, and followed him out, only to see Pei Ji go behind the house, walking quickly along a small alley, and after walking not far away, a young man in green clothes approached him , Seeing Pei Ji, he hurriedly shouted: "Mr. Pei, go and have a look, he's gone crazy again...!"

Pei Ji nodded and didn't say much. Chu Huan followed him, but wanted to see what happened.

Turning to the back door of the nearby house, the back door was closed tightly, and the roar of the ape became clearer, and there were bursts of exclamations in the yard, and Chu Huan heard a voice shouting: "Mr. Mr. Pei."

Someone replied: "I have gone to invite Mr. Pei."

A woman's voice was heard saying: "Mr. Pei set up a stall by Qinshui, and I don't know if he will come back now, so send someone to look for it by Qinshui."

The courtyard seemed to be in chaos, and the young man in green had already stepped forward to knock on the door and said, "Mr. Pei is here, Mr. Pei is here."

The door opened immediately, Pei Ji and others entered the house, the door was closed immediately, and then saw an old man in his early fifties walking up quickly, and said anxiously: "Mr. Pei, you are here, this beast has gone crazy again , you quickly restrain him."

Chu Huan could see clearly that there were more than a dozen people in the yard, both men and women, and seven or eight stout men were holding wooden sticks and forming a circle, each of them extremely nervous.

Among this group of people, there is a big iron cage, and there is a rockery beside the iron cage. The iron chain connects the iron cage and the rockery together. The iron cage is square and square, and it is made of fine iron. It was so huge that a person was suddenly imprisoned in the iron cage.

Chu Huan was shocked again when he saw the man.

I saw that the man was very thin, with disheveled hair, his clothes were in tatters, his limbs were tied with iron chains, and he was roaring in the iron cage, holding the iron rod with both hands and shaking it desperately. The huge and heavy iron cage was shaken like an earthquake, and the man looked crazy, very scary.

Chu Huan did not expect that this man was thin and small, like a little monkey, but his voice was high-pitched and powerful, and the weight of the iron cage was so heavy that Chu Huan himself was not sure that he could shake it. But it swayed easily, which shows that this person's strength is really terrifying.

The people in the yard were all very nervous, obviously they were also very afraid of this little lunatic, the old man was already holding Pei Ji's hand, and said in a panic: "The bastard suddenly went crazy just now, maybe it will break free from the cage to mess with it again. Something bad happened. Mr. Pei, you restrained him last time and asked you to calm him down...!"

Not far away, two maidservants supported a woman who was nearly fifty years old. The woman's face was pale, and her eyes were filled with hatred and fear. Standing next to him was a 25-year-old young man, dressed in Jin Yi also had a bad face, and shouted: "Mr. Pei, you... you try to calm down this bastard, we thank you very much."

Pei Ji's face was a bit ugly, and he glanced at the young man, but saw a servant took a good chance and stuck out a wooden stick. , Pei Ji had already sternly said: "Stop!" It's just that the servant was just brute force, so naturally he couldn't control the timing of sending and receiving. Although Pei Ji stopped him, the end of the stick still poked the little madman's eyes.

Chu Huan frowned, feeling that these people were going too far. If this servant stabbed him with a stick, the little lunatic might lose one of his eyes.

Who knows that although this little lunatic is wearing iron shackles, his reaction speed is extremely sensitive. The stick is only two inches away from his eyes. He stopped, let go hastily, and was frightened by the little lunatic's roar, he backed up a few steps, his whole body trembling like sifting chaff, his face was pale, urine dripped down involuntarily.

The others also backed away in fright. Although the little lunatic was trapped in the iron cage, no one dared to approach him.

The man stabbed him with a stick, and although he was caught by the little lunatic, it obviously angered the little lunatic even more. He threw the stick away, held the two iron railings on the cage with both hands, and let out a low growl like a beast. Huan was shocked to find that the thick iron rod was slowly bent and deformed under the pull of the little lunatic.

Chu Huan's surprise was no small matter.

Chu Huan's own strength is not small, and he has seen many people with great strength, but he has never seen a person with such terrifying strength. This little lunatic has flesh and blood hands, and he can use his flesh and blood The iron railing was pulled and deformed, and the power contained in this weak body was amazing.

The young man in brocade clothes was ashen-faced, and said in a trembling voice: "Mr. Pei, you... look quickly...!" He backed away again and again.

Pei Ji walked forward slowly with his lame leg, and his expression became gentle. Facing the crazy little lunatic, Pei Ji didn't show any fear, but said softly: "Lei Er, Lei Er, don't be annoyed!" , don't be annoyed...!"

Strange to say, when the little lunatic in the cage saw Pei Ji, he slowly lowered his hand pulling the iron railing, tilted his head, and stared at Pei Ji.

At this time, Chu Huan could also see the appearance of the little lunatic. The little lunatic had a long thin face, extremely round eyes, and dark pupils. Both pupils occupied two-thirds of the eye sockets. It seemed that the pupils were huge and energetic, and his nose was bigger than his. Ordinary people seem to be a bit more upright, with a huge mouth, and even black fluff on their face, but there are several scars on their face, under the unkempt face, they look like a beggar.

Chu Huan couldn't judge the exact age of this person for a while, but it should not be more than 15 years old. Although his face is very special, it still has a little immature.

He really couldn't figure out why such a child was locked in a cage and why he went so mad.

Although the anger on the little lunatic's face was still there, when he saw Pei Ji, his eyes showed a hint of warmth. He yelled "Ahhh" twice, and he was in the palm of his hand through the gap between the iron rods. Come.

Pei Ji didn't have the slightest fear. When he approached, he stretched out his hand and held the hand of the little lunatic. His expression also gradually eased, and the expression full of great anger just now became docile.

The little lunatic is like a tiger trapped in a cage, and Pei Ji is like a tiger trainer. No matter how aggressive the tiger is, it will become quiet in front of the tiger trainer.

Seeing the little lunatic calm down, the people around him breathed a sigh of relief, the old man's expression softened slightly, and he said, "Mr. Pei, today is thanks to you again, you bastard...!"

Before he finished speaking, the little lunatic suddenly looked at him, bared his teeth, and anger appeared on his face again.

Pei Ji turned around, frowned, and asked, "Master Qin, why did you put him in the cage again?"

Master Qin was a little embarrassed, and said: "Mr. Pei, this... isn't this worried that he will run out and make trouble again? You know, this bastard...!"

"Master Qin, he's not a beast, he's a human being." Pei Ji's eyes were slightly displeased, and he interrupted: "He's your nephew, he's related to you by blood, you shouldn't treat him like this."

Master Qin was startled, slightly ashamed.

The young man in brocade clothes said, "Mr. Pei, if you don't put him in a cage, let him run out and cause trouble, who can take the responsibility? Four years ago, he caused a catastrophe. The family spent thousands of taels of silver to calm things down, can't we just let him go crazy?"

Pei Ji stared into the eyes of the young man in Jinyi, and said, "Eldest Young Master, I want to ask, why did he go crazy today?"

The young man in brocade clothes was startled, then his eyes flashed, and he said, "I...how would I know."

"Young master, with all due respect, Lei Er is not a lunatic or a fool, but is just too simple." Pei Ji said slowly: "He will never be angry for no reason, there must be a reason for everything, I want to ask a question , Lei Er suddenly went crazy today, is it because the young master did something to him, or said something to stimulate him?"

The young master said angrily, "Mr. Pei, what do you mean by that?"

"I said last time that the more you treat him like this, the more he will go crazy." Pei Ji said seriously: "Cages are used to keep animals, not people. You are his cousin, you can count Brother, you shouldn't treat him like this."

The woman pulled her face down and said coldly: "Pei Ji, are you too lenient? This is our family business, and it's not up to you to intervene in how to discipline this beast. The place you live now has already We owed half a month's rent, and we only accommodated because we saw that you had helped us, so you don't know what's good or bad."
