Should tofu brain be sweet or salty?

I'm sorry, Lu Tao doesn't like sweet or salty, he likes spicy, white as jade tofu brain spread out with fiery red oil chili, and then sprinkled with finely chopped coriander, the taste is simply amazing!

Coriander is coriander, and if someone doesn't like it, you can also choose chopped green onions.

After drinking the last mouthful of soup floating with chili oil, Lu Tao took out his wallet, took out a piece of five yuan and two sheets, and counted the money in his wallet by the way, which can probably last until the end of this month?

There were only a few people sitting in the huge breakfast shop, affected by the economic downturn, and the suburbs far from the city were becoming more and more desolate, handing over the money, Lu Tao and the boss looked at each other and smiled, with a smile full of bitterness.

Lu Tao is a landlord, it stands to reason that having a house is equivalent to having a settlement for the rest of his life, but unfortunately in this small city that I don't know whether it should be counted as a fourth-tier or fifth-tier city, housing prices are like a paradise.

The last tenant left the city two months ago, and Lu Tao waited for the new tenant to replenish his shriveled wallet, but unfortunately for two months, there was no one to call and ask.

On the way home, Lu Tao turned on his mobile phone, planning to post another rental message on the Internet, hoping that someone would see it.

At this moment, a piece of news pushed by the software popped up from the screen of the phone.

"The zoo lion was beaten and cried, and the murderer turned out to be a cat!"

What the hell?! Lu Tao involuntarily clicked into the news, hoping that it was not a headline party, there were too many headline parties these days.

At the beginning of the news, there was a photo of a male lion with bruises covering his body and lying in the corner, with only half of his long mane left, looking very pitiful.

It's like the lion was hit by a car, and the driver got out of the car and found that it was not hit well, and reversed the car and started again.

The following is a video, Lu Tao clicked in to take a look, it turned out to be the zoo's surveillance video, the male lion in the video was walking in his territory, a cat that couldn't see the color suddenly jumped into the lion park, of course the male lion whose territory was invaded was unwilling, it stretched out its fan-like paws and slapped it, but nothing was photographed.

The frame rate and pixels of the surveillance video are not high, and it is also black and white, Lu Tao only saw a black shadow flashing out and jumping out of the screen, and after a while, the black shadow jumped back again, and then the lion was beaten, and was beaten from all sides, if you just look at this paragraph, Lu Tao thought that this lion was hit by the Pegasus Meteor Fist.

Looking at the time of this news, it was what happened yesterday, Lu Tao was very suspicious of the authenticity of the video, there were too many unreliable content of the news pushed by this software, and looking at the way the lion moved left and right when he was beaten in the video, Lu Tao inexplicably thought of some famous ghost animal videos.

Ah, I almost forgot to get down to business!

Lu Tao turned off the news and began to tinker with another software, re-publishing the rental information, if no one rented his house before the end of the month, Lu Tao would have to go out to work.

"The apartment is surrounded by complete facilities, convenient transportation, elegant environment, complete household appliances, and provides three meals a day, so that you can enjoy the warmth of home. ”

Lu Tao typed on the sidewalk as he walked forward, not worrying at all about hitting something, because Lu Tao could feel the uneven touch under his feet, and those unevenness was guiding him in the direction of his progress.

I have to say that in the face of the increasingly developed level of science and technology, the blind road has finally taken on a different new life in the new era.

Lu Tao thought about it, and removed the words "convenient transportation" from the advertising slogan, there is only one bus from here to the city, and it takes forty minutes.

As soon as he finished editing the advertising words, Lu Tao tripped over something, and the mobile phone in his hand almost flew out. Who is so immoral? Put things on the blind alley?

There was a black cat lying there, lying there motionless.

"Dead?"

Lu Tao hesitated, squatted down and poked the black cat's body with his fingers, it was soft, not quite like a corpse, there were two deep wounds on the body, especially on the two hind legs, and the cut muscles were white, and they were no longer bleeding. Lu Tao probed the position under the cat's nose again, although he was a little weak, he could still feel the warm airflow.

Looking left and right, there is no one nearby, the black cat has a golden bell hanging around its neck, except for those scratches and wounds, the rest of the body is also very clean, it seems that the cat has an owner, is it lying here and hit by a car?

There weren't many cars on the road next to it, so it was driving fast, and because it was far away from the city, the next traffic light and zebra crossing were still far away.

Lu Tao took off his coat and wrapped the cat inside, in case there were really visually impaired people passing by here and tripping. The rest can only depend on the luck of this black cat, if it is only a skin injury Lu Tao can still deal with it, if there is a problem with the internal organs, Lu Tao will have no way at all, probably in the end he can only dig a pit for it in the backyard, and then bury it as deep as possible.

In a few minutes, Lu Tao returned to his home, the two-story building has a total of six rooms, and the entire building is Lu Tao's, but except for this two-story old building, Lu Tao has nothing.

Among these rooms, one room is used as a warehouse, one room Lu Tao lives by himself, there are four rooms left to rent, there is a large living room on the first floor, and a kitchen, all the household appliances are in the living room, probably barely complete with household appliances.

Using the key to open the door, Lu Tao put the injured black cat on the table in the living room, ran to the second floor, turned out the medicine box that had not been used for a long time from the cabinet in his room, took out alcohol anti-inflammatory drugs and bandages, and began to bandage the wound of the seriously injured cat.

It wasn't until he completely used up a small packet of anti-inflammatory drugs and a whole roll of bandages, looking at the mummified cat, that Lu Tao nodded with satisfaction, and the rest was only to resign himself to fate, hoping that the cat was lucky enough.

Lu Tao yawned, I don't know if it was because I watched a movie on the Internet last night and saw it too late, Lu Tao felt so sleepy. After taking the coat, Lu Tao didn't dislike whether it was stained with cat hair, so he put it on his body and lay down, the touch of the sofa was a little hard, but Lu Tao couldn't care about it so much, he was really sleepy.

......

"Bang bang bang!"

Lu Tao sat up and rubbed his eyes, as if someone was knocking on the door?

Picking up the mobile phone on the table, Lu Tao realized that he had missed lunch directly, and it was already three o'clock in the afternoon.

"Bang bang bang!"

Lu Tao looked in the direction where the voice sounded, and sure enough, someone knocked on the door, could it be that someone saw the information he posted on the website? Thinking about it this way, the last bit of sleepiness disappeared, if it was a new tenant, Lu Tao didn't mind going to have a big meal tonight to celebrate.

opened the door, there were two people standing outside the door, one behind the other, but unfortunately they were both men, and Lu Tao also hoped that the next tenant would be a girl. Standing in front was a middle-aged man, and the person in the back had short hair, obviously much younger, both of them were wearing darker clothes, but they didn't look like father and son, hoping that they were going to rent a room for one person.

"Hello, are you here to see the house?"

The middle-aged man in front was stunned for a moment, and then was silent for a while before he spoke: "Look at the house? No, we are here to look for a cat, have you seen a black cat? There is a bell around its neck." ”

"You are its masters?"

Lu Tao resisted the urge to look back, feeling that something was wrong, in just a few hours, these two people found here, Lu Tao was very sure that he didn't meet anyone all the way back, so, how did they find here?

The short-haired young man standing behind stepped forward and said to the middle-aged man: "Senior brother, what are you doing with him as an ordinary person? Anyway, this is what the compass points to, why don't we just go in and find it?"

As he spoke, the short-haired young man pushed Lu Tao away and walked towards the position in the living room, obviously Lu Tao had prepared in advance, but he was still pushed to stumble, took two steps back and sat on the ground.

Rubbing the painful tailbone, Lu Tao wondered if his tailbone was cracked, and when he turned around, the short-haired young man had already walked in front of the black cat that was wrapped in a mummy, and stretched out his hand to press on the black cat's head. What is he doing? And, what does Senior Brother mean? What are these two people doing?

"Oh no, senior brother, someone has taken the lead!"

"What?!"

The middle-aged man walked in front of the short-haired young man in a few steps, and also reached out and pressed it on the head of the black cat, and after a while, he turned around and stared at Lu Tao with a pair of sharp eyes. Lu Tao was stunned for a moment, and suddenly there was a feeling that he couldn't breathe, and his sharp eyes seemed to be about to open a few holes in his body.

Lu Tao watched the middle-aged man walking towards this side, he wanted to escape but couldn't move at all, he couldn't even speak, Lu Tao couldn't even move a finger at all.

It wasn't until the other party's right hand pressed on his head that Lu Tao felt scared, yesterday's movie, there was a scene of an ordinary person being crushed by the villain's head, now think about it, it's really bloody horror.

...... Is it too late to call the police?

The middle-aged man didn't crush Lu Tao's head, he just put his hand on Lu Tao's head, and said slowly: "Although I don't know how an ordinary person made a contract with this demon cat, but that's right, the contract is on him!"

"Senior brother, we've been chasing this demon cat for several days, we can't just give up! This is just an ordinary person, let's kill it directly!"
