At the end of the Ming Dynasty, there was a county magistrate in Suizhou named Li Guoqi. This person was a scholar, upright and upright, and was deeply respected and loved by the people. One spring, Li Guoqi took a sedan chair to visit a friend, and encountered a storm halfway through. Thunder and lightning were in the air, so Li Guoqi had to ask the sedan chair to take shelter under a big tree.

Just as Li Guoqi's sedan chair stopped, a one-foot-long monkey suddenly slid down from the top of the tree. The monkey came to Li Guoqi, trembling all over and constantly bowing to Li Guoqi, as if asking Li Guoqi for help.

Li Guoqi thought that the monkey was afraid of thunder, so he said to the monkey, "Why don't you take shelter in my sedan chair for a while?" After hearing this, the monkey immediately jumped into Li Guoqi's sedan chair.

At this moment, a bolt of lightning suddenly struck not far in front of Li Guoqi's sedan chair, followed by the explosion of thunder, and it rang non-stop around Li Guoqi's sedan chair. After a long time, it stopped. The monkey also left the sedan chair after seeing the rain pass.

That night, when Li Guoqi returned home from visiting friends, an old monkey suddenly knelt in front of him and said, "Although I have been practicing for many years, I will encounter lightning tribulations every 500 years. If I can meet a righteous or noble person to help me, I can escape this calamity. You are an upright gentleman, and you helped me escape the disaster. I am unforgettable. I am willing to serve by your side to repay your great kindness."

Li Guoqi agreed to the monkey's request, and the monkey has followed Li Guoqi since then. If Li Guoqi has letters and official documents that need to be delivered, the monkey will send them. Thousands of miles away, the monkey can deliver them in an instant. The monkey will also predict what will happen to Li Guoqi in the future and tell Li Guoqi in advance to prepare him for it.

One year, Li Guoqi's youngest son went to the provincial capital to participate in the township examination. Li Guoqi said to the monkey, "Can you help me go to the examination room in the provincial capital and see what the exam questions are in advance?" The monkey said yes, and then went to the provincial capital. After a while, the monkey staggered back and said to Li Guoqi, "I almost couldn't meet you!"

Li Guoqi asked Monkey why, and Monkey replied, "I had just entered the examination hall when I was chased by General Zhou Cang with a knife. Fortunately, I used the Earth Escape Technique to escape. General Zhou Cang slashed at the back and happened to cut at the corner of the southeast corner, cutting down the wall." Later, Li Guoqi's youngest son came back from the examination and said that the wall in the southeast corner of the examination hall collapsed for no reason and almost hit people. Looking at the monkey, it was really almost cut.

More than ten years later, Li Guoqi felt unwell, and the monkey said to Li Guoqi: "Your life is at the end of your life, you should hurry up and prepare for your funeral." Li Guoqi knew that the monkey would not lie to him, so he personally arranged his funeral. A month later, Li Guoqi passed away peacefully. On the day of the funeral, everyone saw a huge monkey lying on Li Guoqi's grave crying. After a while, it disappeared.
