44. The Last Supper

When Xia returned to the villa, it was already the willow tops on the moon.

He settled the raccoon dog in the park, and his stomach "growled" a few times, and he already felt hungry after a day of cultivation.

"Boss!" Cao Ming, who was patrolling nearby, saw Xia Gui and hurriedly said hello.

Since Xia returned to him as a deputy's errand, Cao Ming has really done a good job. Not only is the park well managed, but also always remember to report the situation with Xia Gui, I have to say that this kid really has some management skills.

Xia Gui said hello to him.

"The boss is busy today, and he hasn't eaten yet, right?" Cao Ming said with a smile.

Xia Gui said solemnly: "Yes, the raccoon dog ate in the forest for a day, so I had to stay in the forest for a day." ”

Cao Ming glanced at Tanuki and said with a smile: "It's also, it's so fat and strong, it's really edible." Chief, when you were away today, an adult came to you, as if you were from the northern base. ”

Xia Guiyi was stunned, there would still be adults looking for him?

He suddenly became alert, could it be that he had committed something?

"Is the Northern Base an adult in charge of beasts?" Xia Gui asked.

Cao Ming thought about it carefully, then shook his head, "No." I've seen the adult in charge of beasts, not the one who came today. The one who came today was wearing a black robe, with a mysterious face, and seemed to have a very deep cultivation. ”

Cao Ming's answer made Xia Gui feel even more dazed.

He had never been in contact with the northern base, let alone known any adults wearing black robes with mysterious faces. What is the purpose of this adult to find himself?

"He said he would come to you in the future, so let me tell you. Cao Ming said.

Xia Gui nodded.

After explaining the matter of the Hundred Beast Garden, Xia Gui turned around and went to the back kitchen.

At this time, it was getting late, and I am afraid that there were few people in the back kitchen, and the rest were all leftovers. Xia Gui thought about it, and had already come to the door of the slave canteen, but when he saw that there was still a fire inside, he vaguely smelled a fragrant smell of chicken.

Xia Gui was a little surprised, this was the first time he had smelled meat in the slave's canteen.

The dozen or so oily tables in the dining area were empty and had been wiped clean, but the middle one had two bowls of white porridge, a plate of steamed buns, and two chicken legs on them!

Smelling the fragrance of chicken legs, the gluttonous worms in Xia Gui's stomach have already been hooked out! Although this taste is not as good as the craftsmanship of the imperial chef of the Southern Wilderness Country, there is a rough and heroic meat fragrance in this vast northern wilderness grassland!

Whose dinner would this be? It should have belonged to some nobleman, not his own anyway.

Xia Gui found an empty table and sat down, his eyes still staring at whether there was anything else to eat in the room.

At this time, the curtain in the back kitchen was opened, and a slightly chubby figure walked out with a plate of hot buns. Xia Gui looked at this person and immediately recognized him, this was the eliminated slave surnamed Bao.

Because his buns are so good, people call him buns, and as for his original name, it has long been forgotten.

When Baozi saw Xia Gui, a smile squeezed out of his dead face and said, "You're here." ”

Xia Gui stood up, "Why are you?"

Baozi put the plate of hot steamed buns in front of Xia Gui, and brought the hot porridge, steamed buns, and chicken legs on the other table.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time, thinking you wouldn't be here today. Baozi said.

Xia Gui looked at the sumptuous dinner at this table, a little puzzled, "Are you waiting for me?"

The steamed buns on the table, the skin of the steamed buns is a little cold and hard, and it can be seen that it is the result of steaming in the pot after being cold, and repeating it many times.

In this way, it should be the steamed buns that are repeatedly hot dishes and steamed buns.

Baozi nodded, and said with a somewhat embarrassed face: "Today...... On the soul power test, there was some rudeness, and I'm very sorry. ”

Xia Gui looked at his honest face, this honest and slightly chubby slave, his mind was also so simple. Even if you have even the slightest bad intention, it is harmless to humans and animals.

He smiled, "You're not sorry for me. You're just trying to put me ahead of you, and it doesn't make any difference to the outcome of our respective matches. If you want to say sorry, it should be Zhang Yun and Liu Xian. ”

"They've been beaten up by you. Baozi said.

Xia Gui smiled slightly, "Some people have to put their faces over and let you fight, do you say to fight or not?"

When Baozi heard this, he sighed slightly, "Actually, they don't live long......"

Xia Guiyi was stunned, "What?"

Baozi smiled bitterly, "Didn't you notice that the serial numbers of the slaves here are out of order? Your serial number is sixty-three, and Ah Biao has been working here for more than a year, but the serial number is more than one hundred." This meant that slaves were dying and new slaves were coming up. It's too hard to survive here for a year. ”

Xia Gui's heart was stuffed and he didn't speak.

In fact, he had already discovered that these serial numbers were chaotic and were not arranged in the order of entering the bank.

This confirms the danger and cruelty of Jiuhou Villa.

Baozi picked up a piece of chicken thigh, put it in Xia Gui's bowl, and said softly: "Tomorrow I will be sent to the northern base, this is my last dinner in the mountain villa." The adults told me that I could eat whatever I wanted, so I made chicken legs. ”

Xia Gui looked at the bun blankly, knowing that this was his heartfelt words before leaving, full of sadness and helplessness.

Xia Gui didn't know how to comfort him, so he had to pick up the chicken leg and take a big bite.

Baozi continued: "I have been working in this villa for half a year, and I don't have any friends. Although we have been in contact for a short time, I can feel that you are a friendly person, so I would like to invite you to this last dinner. ”

Xia Gui nodded, he could feel the sincerity of the buns.

This slave is not bad-hearted, and he is honest. Everyone wants to live longer, but he is too weak to control his own destiny. If you lose, you will have to accept the fate of being sent to the northern base.

Xia Gui chewed on the chicken thighs, which were smoldered from the simmering fire, and the original aroma of meat wafted between his lips and teeth, stimulating the aroma of the chicken thighs themselves. The craftsmanship of the buns turned out to be very good.

"Your chicken leg is very good! It's comparable to the imperial chef of the Southern Wilderness Palace!"

Maybe Xia Gui hasn't eaten meat for too long, and he can't help but praise the buns.

"Well," the bun was stunned, "Chef? Have you eaten it?"

Xia Gui touched his head and sneered: "Ah, His Royal Highness the Sixth of the Southern Wilderness Kingdom is my good friend, thanks to him, I have eaten the meals of the imperial chef a few times." Well, I think it's similar to yours. ”

Baozi's withered face showed a look of yearning, "Wow, Your Highness the Sixth is your good friend, this is really beautiful......! Chef Queen's ...... This must be a good job. ”

"Well, it's okay, it's just an ordinary harem official, and the salary is about one hundred taels of silver per month. Xia Gui thought about it a little.

"A hundred taels of silver?" Baozi's slightly chubby face trembled slightly, and his eyes reflected a certain yearning look.

However, he looked at his hand and then at this dilapidated place, but he knew that he would never be able to go to that place in his life, and he couldn't help but sigh in disappointment.

To be honest, this is the most comfortable meal Xia has eaten since he entered the village.

While eating, he silently operated the cultivation method of "Sheng", countless heaven and earth spiritual qi condensed around his body, and his face seemed to glow.

Baozi seemed to see that Xia Gui was a little different at this time, and he should be cultivating. Baozi silently lowered his head and bit the steamed bun, without interrupting the summer return in a meditative state.

After a long time, Xia Gui came back to his senses with satisfaction.

Originally, the three bottles of diluted soul essence had already allowed him to enter the threshold of condensing his soul power into silk, and now after this round of sincere chicken leg feast, coupled with ecological cultivation, his soul power can already condense silk!

"I should have guessed that you are different from others!" There was a hint of admiration for Xia Gui in Baozi's withered eyes.

Although Baozi didn't know what Xia Gui was doing, he vaguely felt that this slave was different from others and had an unpredictable temperament.

"I'm just more focused. Xia Gui is an understatement.

Baozi picked up a hot bun, handed it to Xia Gui, and squeezed out a wry smile, "Buns are my best, let's try my last craft." ”

"Don't always say the last, the last, go to the northern base, there is also food. Xia Gui took the bun and took a bite, the skin was thin and the filling was big, and his mouth was full of juice. Xia Gui was pleasantly surprised: "Well, it tastes really good!"

Baozi shook his head with a wry smile, and his slightly chubby face was full of gray looks. Although he was holding a bun in his hand, his appetite was not very good, and he couldn't eat it for a long time.

On the contrary, Xia Guizheng was leisurely biting the bun, with a look of ignorance of the world on his face, as if he was a simple teenager who didn't know the danger.

Baozi smiled bitterly, "The northern base is a place where people eat people and don't spit out bones, we slaves must be better off than dead if we slaves go there......"

"It is possible to live better than to die, but it is better to die than to live. Xia Gui said.

Baozi shook his head, his slightly chubby face was covered with a layer of dead gray, "No, when you get to that place, you don't want to live at all, you just want to die as soon as possible." Few of the slaves in this villa will survive for more than a year, and the final outcome of the slaves will be sent to that place......"

Xia Gui's expression suddenly became nervous, "What do you mean?"

Baozi stared at Xia Gui for a long time, and some words were repeatedly suffocated in his heart, desperately wanting to say it. He hesitated for a long time, and finally approached Xia Gui, lowered his voice and said, "An old slave once told me that the slaves in this mountain villa will be sent to that place for them to do live experiments......

Xia Gui was stunned, he had eaten very well, but suddenly his appetite was gone.

In vivo experiments?

These four words are simply unheard of!

But literally, he had already roughly guessed what it meant, and it should be to test on living people.

"What a live experiment!" Xia Gui lowered his voice angrily.

Baozi smiled bitterly and shook his head, with a desperate and overwhelmed look on his face, "I don't know now, maybe I'll know tomorrow." But I'd rather never know ......"

When Baozi said these words, the expression on his face was very serious, and Xia Gui's heart couldn't help but tremble slightly.

He wanted to pat Baozi's hand to soothe his sensitive and uneasy emotions, but the moment he touched the back of Baozi's hand, he was almost startled. Baozi's hands were extremely cold, like a dead man's body.

After the meal, both of them lost their appetites.

Before leaving, Xia Gui took the initiative to clean up the back kitchen, washed the dishes and put them back in their original places. Then, stepping on the pale moonlight, the buns were returned to the slave dwelling.

When saying goodbye, Baozi seemed to glance at Xia Gui reluctantly. This look, Xia Gui may not be able to forget it in his life.

The child's slightly narrowed pupils showed a blank and gray look, but there was still a trace of nostalgia for survival in his eyes, like a person who was about to be swept into a whirlpool, desperately trying to hug the driftwood around him. But this attachment to survival, under the erosion of fear and tension, slowly disappeared.
