Zhu Yuanyu didn't know what to say.

"This dish...... Can't eat. ”

couldn't bear to look at the tragic situation around him, Zhu Yuanyu stood up and walked out of the inn on tiptoe, and Maotou followed closely.

The master is gone, of course, as a subordinate, he can't help but follow, Qi Yi and the three of them took a look at the dishes on the dinner table together, and chased Zhu Yuanyu out of the inn.

Qi Yi took the lead in supporting Zhu Yuanyu, who glanced at him and did not refuse.

The shopkeeper looked at a table of untouched delicacies, looked at the door suspiciously, and then served the food with joy.

In the kitchen backyard of the inn, a few lazy shopkeepers were scrambling to stuff vegetables into their mouths, and their greasy mouths of greasy eating made them look like hungry ghosts who hadn't eaten in ten lifetimes.

One of them desperately stuffed the food into his mouth, gobbling it up, and only when he licked the plate that it was shiny before he touched his belly and let out a sigh of satisfaction.

If Zhu Yuanyu knew that the shopkeeper of Yuelai Inn had eaten a table full of maggots, and he was still satisfied, he would definitely die of disgust.

However, he would not have thought that the shopkeeper would take the dishes that the guests did not eat and eat them himself.

The shopkeeper of the Yuelai Inn is used to doing this kind of thing, and the leftover dishes of the general guests, if it is an ordinary cheap dish, there is not much left, so a little head and tail will be poured into a bucket and wait for the person who collects this to transport away and feed the livestock or something;

Zhu Yuanyu came out to play, of course, he would not treat himself badly, and when he ordered, he ordered the famous dishes of Yuelai Inn and the local specialties, and the shopkeeper saw a table of good dishes, how could he waste it.

It's not that they haven't eaten, and the store at Yuelai Inn has never treated them badly, and they can often get some good food from the kitchen, but they just want to stuff things into their mouths for some reason, just to keep their stomachs full, and they don't feel at ease until their bellies bulge.

This situation only started a month ago, and all the men in Youxi City quickly lost weight, their faces were sallow, and they were listless and weak all day long, and they didn't know where they came from!

If the situation is the same for women, then it can also be explained by "disease", but the women in Youxi City are all normal, their bodies are not thin, and their faces are not sallow, which proves that there is something wrong with the men in Youxi City.

Under the scorching sun, Zhu Yuanyu walked out of the Yuelai Inn, walked along the shady ground to another street, and casually found a restaurant and walked in.

It was the time of eating, and there was not a single guest in the restaurant, and not only did there be no guests, but there was not even a figure of a buddy.

"Anyone?"

Zhu Yuanyu shouted, Qi Yi helped him to sit down at the window, and saw a fly hovering in the window, making a buzzing sound.

Fly?

It's amazing! There are so many people eating at Yuelai Inn, why don't there be a single fly?

Zhu Yuanyu recalled that when he was at the Yuelai Inn just now, he suddenly felt a sense of disobedience.

"Young master, I'll go to the back kitchen to see if there's anyone. ”

Li Zhuangzhuang saw that no one came out to greet him after waiting for a long time, and he was about to starve to death, so he decided to go in and arrest people himself.

Zhu Yuanyu came back to his senses, nodded and said, "Well, let's go." ”

However, Li Zhuangzhuang hadn't taken two steps yet, and a person came out from behind the kitchen curtain weakly.

Li Zhuangzhuang's eyes lit up, he stepped forward quickly, grabbed the person's shoulder with his big hand, and suddenly felt that the shoulders under his hand were very handy, and he glanced at the person in front of him seriously, and frowned, "You ......"

The man was already skinny, his two eye sockets were deeply sunken, his big eyes looked at Li Zhuangzhuang blankly, and then he slowly grinned, revealing his yellow teeth, "This guest officer...... Do you want to ...... What to order...... Dish ......"

Li Zhuangzhuang let go of his hand and took a few steps back, almost wanting to reach out to cover his mouth and nose.

As soon as the man spoke, a rancid and sour smell wafted out, and even Zhu Yuanyu could faintly smell it.

In such a situation, no matter how delicious the food in this restaurant is, Zhu Yuanyu has lost his appetite.

He stood up helplessly and said to the three of them, "Let's go, go to other restaurants." Then he stretched out his hand, glanced at Qi Yi, and motioned to the other party to hurry up.

Qi Yi smiled slightly and grabbed Zhu Yuanyu's hand.

The four of them walked around a few streets with their empty bellies, and finally filled their stomachs at a small noodle stall.

It was an old couple who set up the stall, and the pasta they made was also very refreshing, Zhu Yuanyu liked the taste as soon as he entered the mouth, and ate the noodles in the bowl with a few sucks, and added a second bowl with a second bowl.

The old woman looked at Zhu Yuanyu with a smile and asked kindly, "Young man, is it delicious?"

Zhu Yuanyu swallowed the last bite of noodles and smiled sincerely: "Old man, don't you already know the answer......?

The old woman nodded and said happily: "Young people still need to eat more, so that they can grow up quickly......"

Although her eyes were looking at Zhu Yuanyu, Zhu Yuanyu felt as if she was looking at someone through herself, although she was full of doubts, but this was someone else's business, so he smiled and said nothing.

"What nonsense are you talking about!" The old man next to the old woman glared at her, but there was no blame in his eyes, and then he said to Zhu Yuanyu helplessly: "Don't care what she says, she's just ...... Alas......"

The old man did not continue, but the expression on his face suddenly became sad, and his originally thin body seemed to be vulnerable.

The old woman on the side continued to laugh, and she was talking to herself, completely different from the state just now, and it seemed that her spirit was really a little abnormal.

Seeing that a strand of silver hair fell from the old woman's forehead, and the person concerned didn't know it, the old man stretched out his hand to help her gently pick it up, carefully sorted it out, and his eyes were full of warmth.

Cui'er stared without blinking, with an envious expression on her face, and muttered: "The relationship between the two old men is really good...... Is this what is called 'growing old together'? Can I meet it in the future?"

Qi Yi glanced at her, "Are you thinking of spring?"

Cui'er's face turned red and glared at him, "No! Don't talk nonsense!"

Zhu Yuanyu turned his head and said half-jokingly: "What's the matter, Cui'er, do you have a sweetheart?"

"Young master, why are you bullying the slave and maid, ignoring you!" he said and stood up and ran.

"Hey!" Zhu Yuanyu looked at Cui'er's back funny, and said to Li Zhuangzhuang: "Zhuangzhuang, you follow, Cui'er is a girl's family, it's not safe." ”

"Oh!" Li Zhuangzhuang heard this, and hurriedly drank the soup in the bowl, put down the bowl and chased after him.

Zhu Yuanyu asked Qi Yi to give the money, and was about to go back to the Yuelai Inn to take a nap, but who knew before he stood up, and saw three thin men with unkind faces walking over.

"Touch", the old man threw down the noodles in his hand, and the full amount of noodles slammed on the board, startling the old woman next to her, and looked at the old man a little at a loss.

The old man pointed at the three men and scolded: "What are you doing here! Get out! I don't want to see you!"

The three men are all very obscene, and the one standing in the middle is even more thief-eyed, and he knows at a glance that he is not an honest person.

The leader took two steps forward, with a smile on his face, as if he didn't mind the old man's drive, and said with a roll of his eyes: "Ouch, my own uncle! The eldest nephew has come to see your second elder, why is he still strained! I don't know, I still think I'm here to collect debts, isn't it?"

The men on the left and right agreed and said: "That's it! That's it! How can anyone be an uncle who drives his nephew out! It's not easy to run all the way, the sun is shining again, your nephew has a heart!"

The old man's chest rose and fell violently, and he seemed to be angry, "I don't have a nephew like you! I can't stand it! Why do you still have the face! Get out of here!" After speaking, he picked up the rolling pin at hand and threw it over.

The man who said that he was the old man's nephew saw it and subconsciously dodged to the left, but he didn't expect the rolling pin to come to the left, and he was suddenly smashed, and the others who were in pain bent down.

The old man didn't expect to be really hit, and the expression on his face was a little complicated for a while.

Seeing that their companion was injured, the other two refused to let go of the old man, and did not say anything to help the injured man, but walked straight to the old man's noodle stall, looking fierce and vicious.

"What do you want to do! Come here again, don't blame me for being rude!" the old man called out to the two men as he stopped the old woman behind him, glanced down at him, and picked up a knife.

When the two men saw the old man pick up the knife, they hesitated a little, and looked at each other, as if they couldn't make up their minds.

"Dead old man! Shameless face! Cheap bones who don't know how to lift!" The man with thief eyebrows and rat-eyed eyes raised his head, his face was gloomy, and he stared at the old man viciously, and shouted to the two men: "What are you doing in a daze! Don't you see that I'm hurt! Smash this noodle stall for me!"

Seeing that the two of them seemed to have scruples, they glanced at the knife in the old man's hand contemptuously, and said fiercely: "What's the matter? Are you still afraid of a dead old man? Go over and snatch the knife directly!

When the two heard the word "reward", they immediately rushed over regardless of it.

Although it was a meeting in Pingshui, Zhu Yuanyu had a good feeling about the old couple, seeing that they were going to be bullied, how could they ignore it.

"Qi Yi!"

Qi Jian instantly understood, in fact, without Zhu Yuanyu's orders, he couldn't help but make a move.
