Chapter 7 Steaming Human Flesh

Due to the profit made today, the owner decided not to open the store in the evening.

He Xiu and Anu also lay on the bed early, staring at the beams in a daze.

On the day he was shopping for ingredients, He Xiu bought a red rope and wore it around his neck through the gap in the bell.

He Xiu thought back to the scene when he saw five young immortals flying by on crane-like birds for the first time, the scene when he saw the double spirit leopard for the first time, and the scene when he saw the bell for the first time.

These three pictures made He Xiu wonder if it was some kind of person with unique skills who was mistaken by him for an immortal, or if there really was an immortal.

These two answers were wavering in He Xiu's mind, and he couldn't choose them.

There are also many myths and stories in the folk of Nanyang Kingdom, and He Xiu remembers that after he became sensible, his grandfather told him that the so-called myths and stories were just pictures imagined by people living at the bottom of society.

The reason why these illusory pictures have been handed down is because everyone who lives at the bottom has a common yearning in their hearts, that is, the warrior who can save them from the sea of suffering.

However, it is impossible for every person who suffers in the sea of suffering to meet a warrior, so in this case, it is better to let an illusory warrior take its place.

The word immortal has spread among the people.

The bow of time is full of years, and with time as an arrow, it passes through the years and falls in the cold winter.

The exotic flowers and plants on the main street of Qiman Town are still blooming in the cold wind.

In the past five months, He Xiu has eaten and lived in Huipeng Building, and the skin and bones on his body have been replaced by tendons and flesh, and his face has returned to the ordinary person. Due to the lack of nutrition when he was a child, he was still about 1.5 meters tall, and his appearance was still the same.

He Xiu in the Huipeng Building treats every shopkeeper very carefully, patiently listens to every suggestion that the shopkeeper says, and then carefully thinks about it in his heart, plus the shopkeeper's teachings, and patiently looks for ways to deal with it.

Gradually, there were many customers who did not come for dinner, but came for He Xiu's service.

After the shopkeeper seized the opportunity and used the businessman's mind to promote He Xiu's services, the business of Huipeng Lou became more and more prosperous day by day.

Even the shopkeeper who bullied on weekdays was much more gentle to He Xiu, and every time He Xiu saw the shopkeeper's squeezed smile, the goosebumps on his body fell to the ground.

Anu tried her best to serve He Xiubi, but there were still not as many repeat customers as He Xiu, and she couldn't help but feel a little disappointed in her heart, but seeing He Xiu's achievements today, she was happy for him in my heart.

Suddenly, the word He Xiu spread in Qiman Town, especially in the service industry.

On this day, the twenty guest tables on the upper and lower floors of the Huipeng Building were already full, and He Xiu and Anu were very busy.

At the guest table in the center of the first floor, there was a man in his early twenties with a scar on his face.

The man with the scar took off his shoes, put his feet on the table and shouted, "Don't you see that I have been waiting for so long, master?

Anu saw that He Xiu was busy and couldn't get out, so he hurriedly ran over, smiled and apologized, "This shopkeeper, I'm really sorry, this restaurant is understaffed, and the hospitality is not good, please bear with me, what do you want to eat?" I'll let the back kitchen make it for you first." ”

The man with the scar looked at Anu contemptuously, holding a chopstick in his mouth, and said angrily, "Huipenglou is also a first-class restaurant in Qiman Town, how can I find some crooked melons and cracked dates, it's really fucking unappetizing." Phew!"

Anu has been working as a handyman in Huipeng Building for as long as he can remember, and he has met all kinds of shopkeepers for more than ten years. So he raised his spirits and said with a pleasant face, "This shopkeeper, what you said is true, we will be the best restaurant in Qiman Town, what do you want to eat?"

"I'll bring you a pot of good sake for your uncle, and serve all the signature dishes in your store. The scar man said angrily.

Anu said respectfully, "Okay, please wait. ”

Anu saw that the situation was not right, and hurriedly returned to the backyard to report to the shopkeeper, who told Anu unhurriedly that he would agree to any request he wanted, and see what the scar man was going to do.

With the support of the owner, Anu was much more at ease, and according to the scar man's request, he served all the dishes to the table.

The man with the scar drank only with a flask, and after only one bite of each of the eight signature dishes, he threw down his chopsticks and got up to leave.

Anu stepped forward and said, "Guest, you haven't settled the bill yet. ”

"What? You go to Qiman Town to inquire, my Scar eats for your face, and you dare to ask your master for money, be careful that I smash your shop, get out!" Scar Man pushed Anu to the ground, and said with anger in his eyes.

Anu didn't dare to stop it, and looked at the shopkeeper at the counter, who nodded helplessly, admitting that he was unlucky.

The usually arrogant and domineering shopkeeper didn't dare to make a sound, but just took the shopkeeper's arm fiercely.

He Xiu is now in charge of the second floor, he has no idea what happened at the bottom of the building, after the restaurant closes at night, Anu explained everything to He Xiu, and the shopkeeper also came to He Xiu at this time to discuss countermeasures, saying that the scar is the famous Laipi in Qiman Town, and everyone who does the service industry is afraid of him.

He Xiu thought about it for a long time and gave the shopkeeper an idea, if the scar man came back tomorrow, he would leave it to him to deal with.

The owner immediately said that if he could resolve the matter peacefully without offending Scar, he would raise his salary by five cents.

He Xiu readily accepted, but after considering Anu's self-esteem, he said that he needed Anu's help to solve it, and the owner of the store readily promised Anu to also raise his salary by five cents.

After sending the shopkeeper away, He Xiu told Anu that if Scar came back tomorrow, no matter what he asked, he would agree to all of them, and he would improvise.

It was late at night after the two discussed the countermeasures, and they were exhausted, so they went back to sleep.

When the rooster crowed, He Xiu and Anu got up to help the kitchen prepare the ingredients needed for the day, resulting in breakfast time and lunch time almost overlapping, and the two of them hastily filled their stomachs and opened the door to welcome customers.

After a while, the Huipeng Building was full of guests, and Scar sat in his position yesterday without accident, still taking off his shoes, stepping on the table with one foot and shouting, "Damn, is there anyone panting?"

Hearing this, Anu hurriedly trotted to the front and said, "I wonder what you want to eat today?"

Scar crossed his eyes, clasped his yellow teeth, and said casually, "Let's give the master a steamed human flesh and beat the teeth first!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at the lively eyes and discussed them in private.

Anu didn't know what to do for a while, just scratched his head and stood in place in embarrassment, He Xiu was already standing behind Anu at this time, so he asked, "Brother Anu, why are you stunned? ”

As Anu left, He Xiu muttered in his ear, Anu pursed his lips and said in a tone that only the two of them could hear, "Can it work?"

He Xiu chuckled back, saying that Anu just had to do what he said. Then he said to the man with the scar, "This shopkeeper, I wonder if you need anything?"

"Master, when I grew up like steamed human meat, Malier's. Scar Man said impatiently.

He Xiu said neither humbly nor arrogantly, "I have also notified the kitchen to make it, but I don't know if the store customers have any taboos about spices?"

"Hmmm, haha, it's kind of interesting, the spices are free. Do you understand what I ordered, sir?"

He Xiu smiled and said confidently: "Back to the store, you ordered steamed human meat!"

"Haha, what if you can't do it?" said the scar man with a yellow tooth grin.

He Xiu said word by word, "Just do what you said yesterday." ”

The diners who ate in the Huipeng Building put down their food one after another, and their eyes surrounded the two of them, with expressions of anticipation on their faces that they were looking forward to making a big deal out of it.

The Scar Man rolled up his sleeves and said viciously, "Hey, boy, that's what you said. ”

He Xiu's eyes narrowed slightly, flashed a hint of purity, and asked rhetorically, "This shopkeeper, you haven't said what we will do after we make it?"

"Hey, it's getting more and more interesting, okay, then I'll play with you, if you can make what I call steamed human flesh, this ingot of gold is yours!" Scar took out a gold ingot from his bosom and placed it heavily in the center of the table.

He Xiu saw that the gold ingot that Scar took out was bigger than the one given by the Guan Mansion, and the people who watched the excitement instantly became louder, and even the people on the second floor ran down to see the excitement when they heard the movement.

However, He Xiu didn't take the gold ingot in his eyes at all, he just wanted Scar to bow his head in front of everyone.

"Guests, please be quiet, everyone heard the bet between me and this little brother just now, so since it is a bet, there must be witnesses, I wonder if you are willing to be a witness for the two of us?" He Xiu said with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Willing... Willing..."

For a while, Huipenglou could only hear the words willing, and Scar also echoed cunningly, "Okay, don't leave for a while, watch the little master and I smash the store with my own hands!"

"Steamed human flesh is here, please take advantage of it, be careful of burns. Anu's voice came shouting.

Scar was stunned for a moment when he saw it, then he came to his senses, looked at the wood-colored vegetable box on the table, and said in disbelief: "It's really steamed human flesh in it?"

He Xiu patted his chest and said, "It's true. ”

Everyone also watched with their necks held high, and the light in their eyes shone on the vegetable box and converged into four big words "schadenfreude".

Scar stretched out his right hand and put it on the lid of the vegetable box, slowly lifted it, and his eyes were wide and he could only hear a sound;
