Bureau of Anomalous Biological Countermeasures Chapter 251: Meaty
The carriage continued to move forward and arrived in a small county town before dark. There is no decent inn here. In the end, the old guy picked a small family-run shop that looked fairly clean, and a few people booked the backyard of the inn to deal with it for the night.
If you don't live well, you can make it happen. If you don't eat well, these people and demons really have no way to make it. I glanced at the food in the inn: steamed buns and boiled cabbage. Bai Wuqiu and Xiao Ren San couldn't swallow such food, so he went out arguing to find something he could eat.
Although the county seat is near the capital, there is no shadow of the prosperity of Bianliang City. After dark, the few restaurants and restaurants in the city began to close their doors, and a few people and demons walked around the city, but couldn't find a place to eat. In desperation, I could only go back to the inn, but the sad thing was that there was not even that little steamed bun and boiled vegetables left. Thinking that these guest officials were not eating or drinking in the store, the innkeeper's family made a tooth sacrifice themselves.
Seeing that the fire has been sealed on the stove, the anger of Bai Wuqi burst out. He yelled at the owner's family who owned the jewelry and tableware, "What kind of **** are you? Is it so difficult for me to eat some wine and meat?"
The boss trembled with fright, and his wife and children hid. The innkeeper could only explain boldly: "You don't know objectively, we are on the west side of the capital. Going forward is a dirt road, and people who travel to and from the capital and transport goods never come to our side. It is the official road in the southeast. As time goes by, our small county will become more and more desolate. To be honest, our family will move to Bianliang City to rely on relatives after the new year. This small shop is really I can't earn a few..."
Just walking around in the county town, these people and demons already know how poor this small town is. But Bai Wuqiu didn't give up, and continued to the innkeeper: "Don't cry about being poor first! I haven't eaten yet. I know you are poor here, and you don't want any scallops. Go and get 20 catties of mutton. Boil it, then bake 20 pieces of oil cakes, and two jars of any wine will do. We can just make do with it, old guy, if you give them money, I guess he doesn't even have the money to buy meat..."
The owner of the inn gave a wry smile and said: "Guest officer, you are right, the shop has no money to buy meat. But we can't find twenty catties of mutton in this small place. I'm not afraid of your jokes. The land sold is self-brewed rice wine, and the wine is also pickled vegetables. I was afraid that you would not believe me, so I didn't dare to say it. Except for the New Year's Day in our county, who is willing to go to Jishang to buy some when they are celebrating their birthdays? The meat comes back to cook and eat..."
At this time, Bai Wuqiu has understood that it is impossible to drink and eat meat today. Looking at the innkeeper's obedient appearance, he didn't intend to get angry at him. At the moment, he said weakly: "It's okay if there is no wine and meat, and the steamed buns and boiled cabbage just now will be finished. Go, turn on the stove, steam a pot of white noodle buns, and then boil a pot of cabbage, no wine and no meat. The old man also recognized..."
"Steamed steamed buns, boiled vegetables, no more..." After the innkeeper gave a wry smile, he prevented the **** man from suddenly making a move. He took a step back first, and then continued: "To be honest, I will go out on credit for these things after you have come. Tomorrow, after you have left, give them to the store and I will return them. Money. The shop has always been doing this. If you don’t come tonight, we will be hungry. The shop really has nothing, or you can bear with it. Tomorrow In the morning, I'll have breakfast on credit..."
At this time, Bai Wuqiu was already hungry and panicked, after hearing the words of the innkeeper. Knowing that he won't be able to eat tonight, he immediately said to Gui Fugui: "Old guy, I said let the people from the Surabaya follow, but you just don't let them... No matter what, they will prepare wine and meat. When will I I've gotten to this point..."
"If you're hungry, you'll be clearing the fire, and if you fall asleep, you won't be hungry." Gui Bugui is Bigu's body. After the old guy smiled, he took Bai Wuqiu and walked towards the backyard. After walking a few steps, he thought of something, took out a piece of horseshoe gold and threw it to the innkeeper, and said, "Don't take credit, this is for you. Prepare a lot of breakfast tomorrow morning, and we will set off after eating."
The innkeeper has not seen gold for many years, and this large piece of horseshoe gold is heavy, with a total of thirty taels. Under the surprise, I forgot to write about the old guy.
They are still the old rules, although they have the entire backyard, but a few are still crowded into a wing. They didn't have the time to talk without having dinner. Take an early rest and wait for tomorrow's breakfast to relieve your hunger. Wu Mian and Xiao Ren San are fine, just bear with them and pass the night. Gui Bugui and Tong Qizhen are both inedias, and they don't know what it means to be hungry. Only Bai Wuqiu has never suffered this sin, and originally thought that he would not be hungry when he fell asleep. Unexpectedly, in the second half of the night, it still woke up hungry.
Bai Wuqiu, who got up from the bed, saw that the others and Xiao Ren San had fallen asleep, and Er Lengzi tiptoed out of the door of the wing. I was going to go to the kitchen to drink a few sips of cold water to fool myself, but just as Bai Wuqiu walked out of the door of the wing, I suddenly smelled the aroma of stewed meat floating in the air.
When Bai Wuqiu, who was already hungry, smelled this fragrance, his mind was dizzy. The body involuntarily followed the direction of the fragrance...
The aroma came from outside the inn, and ran out of the inn in a hurry. After crossing the street, he stood in a residential building. The aroma of the stew came from here. Bai Wuqiu stood at the gate of the residence and looked inside. A candle was lit inside the house, and there were faint shadows shaking inside.
"Anyone? Does your house sell stewed meat? How about I give you gold, how about a pot of stewed meat instead?" Bai Wuqiu shouted a few times, but no one responded. At the moment Er Lengzi pushed the door open and walked in, saying, "Is there anyone? I'll take it as your default to invite Laozi in. Laozi has gold, you can say something, as long as you nod, Laozi will go back now to get the gold..."
But no matter how much Bai Wuqiu shouted, no one answered. Moreover, Er Lengzi had just walked a few steps after pushing the door and came in, when the lights inside suddenly went out, and the figure who had just seen shaking inside disappeared.
"What do you mean? What do you want to do with the lights off?" Smelling the smell of meat, Bai Wuqi didn't care if the lights were turned off inside. At the moment, it continued to follow the smell of meat and walked to the backyard, and saw a big cauldron in the center of the courtyard. After Bai Wuqiu saw the cauldron, he walked quickly to the front, and saw a pot of sauce-red stewed meat inside. Looking at the size of this pot, almost a whole pig was stewed in it...
I saw the stewed meat right in front of my eyes, and I didn't care about it. It ignored the still bubbling broth, reached out and grabbed a piece of stewed meat and stuffed it into its mouth, swallowing the meat into its stomach with three mouthfuls.
"Good workmanship..." After eating a piece of meat, Er Lengzi grabbed another piece and stuffed it into his mouth. After the second piece of stewed meat was eaten, Bai Wuqiu suddenly fell to the ground with a soft foot. Before he understood how he fell to the ground, Er Lengzi's eyes went dark, and he didn't know anything.
At this time, a man's voice came from the house: "You Fragrance Powder is really useful, you can seduce the demon king from it. Unfortunately, this can only be smelled by the demon. If it is Wu Mian, If you don't go back, you'll save a lot of trouble."
"It's really the two of them here, do you and I dare to stand here and talk?" Another voice came out, and after a pause, he continued: "Wait a minute, the ginseng doll will also The block has arrived. With the two of them, we will have the capital to exchange Tong Qizhen with Wu Mian and Gui Wugui..."
While this person was speaking, the first person to speak came from the hiding place. He dragged Er Lengzi's body aside and hid it. While Bai Wuqiu was being hidden, a milky business suddenly sounded outside the residence: "Is there anyone inside? Are you all for sale?"
