Twenty-five, gluttony
The magpie stood, Yao Xitong and Su Su sat at the table facing each other, and the shopkeeper put a plate of turquoise plants on the table, "Chilled tree flowers, please use them slowly!"
Xiao Bao'er pointed at him in surprise, "Why are you here? Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”
"Girl, the little one has been waiting here, and the dishes are behind the case over there, do you want to go over and take a look?"
"Is he really here all along?" Yao Xitong nodded and asked rhetorically, "What about the leg of mutton?"
He Bo watched, there was still a while. ”
"What are you doing here?"
Xiao Bao'er pointed to the shopkeeper and said, "He said that this is called a ghost town, we have to live here, and we can't leave until half a month." The shopkeeper smiled, "Girl, in broad daylight, what nonsense are you talking about? This is called Huangsha Town, you can leave when you go out of the store and go right, don't believe you go out and try?"
"I'm ......" Xiao Bao'er pulled her legs and walked out, and the magpie stopped in front of her. Yao Xitong said with a smile, "If you want to leave, you have to finish eating, what's the hurry, don't sit down quickly." ”
"Girl, I'll get you a pair of chopsticks. The shopkeeper walked slowly towards the backyard.
Xiao Bao'er sat between Su Su and Yao Xitong, the three of them were triangular, and she asked, "Su Su, what's wrong with you, why is your face so bad?"
"Princess, your words let me know that there are two shopkeepers in this shop, they are twins, and we are afraid that it will be difficult for us to leave. Yao Xitong continued, "This plate of tree flowers is fresh, and the shopkeeper has just picked them from the tree. If nothing else, the villagers of this village do not produce and rely on the forest outside to feed, which is why we can't catch prey. ”
"We came in for three days, and we didn't see any living creatures, if they were all captured by the villagers, how many people did they have?" Su Su's question no one could answer, it doesn't matter how many people there are, the key is that these people can catch all the birds and beasts, what are their martial arts, and what is the purpose of staying in this place?
Xiao Bao'er suddenly slapped the table, "Hearing you say this, it's really weird here! By the way, why are you stopping me?"
The magpie said quietly: "There is an extra coffin at the door of the coffin shop, I don't want you to lie in it." ”
"Hey......" Xiao Bao'er sighed, "Why didn't you stop me when I was about to come in?"
Su Su pulled the corners of her mouth helplessly, if she knew martial arts, she would definitely stop Xiao Bao'er.
Yao Xitong smiled awkwardly, his curiosity was too strong, he was in trouble now, what should he do next?
The magpie smiled wryly, if it weren't for his family, how could he have run from the center of power to this weird place where birds don't lay eggs?
Xiao Er, who walked from the indoor to the backyard to get the dishes and chopsticks, suddenly walked in from the front door, and put the dishes and chopsticks in front of Xiao Bao'er with a calm expression, "Guest officer, please use it slowly!"
Xiao Bao'er took a chopstick tree flower and put it in her mouth, "Wow, what is this, it's delicious." ”
"Tree flowers, also known as tree beards, parasitize on the surface of trees, take them down and boil them in lime water and rinse them to remove their astringency, and they can be eaten cold. ”
"It's such a delicious thing, why didn't you let Su Su pick it all the way?"
"Do we have lime? If this process is missing, it will be absolutely difficult to swallow the tree flowers, and it is a matter of great importance to eat them. ”
Xiao Bao'er pursed her mouth, "Is the honey delicious?"
The corners of Yao Xitong's mouth curled, "Tender and delicious." ”
"Xiao Er has a honey chirp. ”
The shopkeeper looked at Xiao Baoer in surprise, suddenly showed a weird smile, and hurriedly turned to the back kitchen to serve the dishes. After a long time, a white porcelain cup was brought to the table. Xiao Bao'er reached out to reveal it, but the shopkeeper pressed it, turned his head and asked Yao Xitong, "Honey is also known as three squeaks, does the guest officer know which three squeaks?"
"The chopsticks squeak, the rolling material squeaks, the entrance squeaks. The shopkeeper was very satisfied with Yao Xitong's answer, and then opened the white porcelain cup, and five pink mice were neatly placed in the cup.
Xiao Bao'er looked at the mouse and then at Yao Xitong, "Can this be eaten?"
"Those who have not been born in the fetus and are naked are fed with honey and nailed to the feast...... To take it, bite it, chirp and make a sound, so it is called honey. It's all written in the book, why can't you eat it?"
"Su Su," Xiao Bao'er shouted, and Su Su covered her mouth and sat down at another table, waving her hand with her back to her.
"Magpie," the man looked at the ceiling as if he hadn't heard anything.
"Yao ......" didn't need Xiao Bao'er to shout, Yao Xitong took the initiative to say, "I lost the bet, and I can't eat meat for a month." ”
He Bo came just in time, the roasted leg of lamb was bubbling with oil, exuding a tanucinating aroma.
Xiao Baoer looked at the leg of mutton and the mice, and ate the dishes she ordered by herself, she didn't ask if she could return the vegetables, she picked up the mice and swallowed five in a row. Yao Xitong on the side was dumbfounded, he ate ants last night, and today he ate mice, and the princess from the barbarian place is different.
Uncle He and they opened another table, with a leg of mutton and a hard bun soup, which was so delicious.
Yao Xitong can't eat meat, but the white bun in the bowl is specially roasted by He Bo. The two sides of the steamed bread are brushed with mutton fat, and the yellow-orange orange baked is particularly beautiful, and the condiments sprinkled on the outer layer of the steamed bread are soaked in oil. I saw Yao Xitong sandwiching a few pieces of tree flowers with steamed buns before sending them to his mouth, Xiao Baoer swallowed her saliva, she really wanted to eat it, but unfortunately her stomach was full of rat meat.
After everyone had eaten and drunk enough, Yao Xitong asked the shop how to calculate the cost of the second meal? After a while, two identical people stood in front of them, and one of them said: "As long as we can tell which of us is the elder brother and who is the younger brother, today's meal fee will be free." ”
"Next to the elder brother is the younger brother, and next to the younger brother is the elder brother. Su Su's words made the two stunned, and after looking at each other, one said: "This is a clever word, not an answer." ”
The magpie couldn't help but say, "You practice the same martial arts, and you deliberately imitate each other every day, and outsiders can't tell the difference between you at all, the elder brother is the younger brother, and the younger brother is also the elder brother." Let's say, how to calculate the meal fee, and what's going on with the ghost gate?" is worthy of being an internal guard, he doesn't talk much, and every sentence is useful.
Hearing this, the two laughed. They said in unison, "We are called 饕餮 (taotie), I am 饕 (tao), he is 餮 (tie), or he can be gluttony, I am gluttony." Xiao Bao'er couldn't help but roll her eyes, and said that she didn't say anything. The two said: "I have seen this son's fresh way of eating steamed bread, and lunch is free." This place is called Ghost Town, and the place where you leave here is called Ghost Gate, and it is inconvenient to say more. ”
Xiao Bao'er asked, "What does it mean that the ghost door is wide open in the middle of July?"
The two of them obviously didn't agree on this, and they glared at Tao fiercely, "It's not interesting, he's talking nonsense to you." ”
During this period, Yao Xitong has been observing the difference between the two, knowing that he is more sincere, and most of what he said to Xiao Baoer is true. He asked, "What are the taboos in the ghost town, why is it better to live here?" As soon as the words came out, Gluttony angrily reprimanded, "What are you talking nonsense?" Taugerent replied quite aggrievedly, "I didn't say that it was better to live here, only that they didn't decide where to live." ”
"Come with me," the gluttony dragged him to the inner courtyard, and when he came out again, the two of them felt exactly the same again. I can't tell who is a grumpy glutton and who is a little weaker. They put an egg on the table and said, "If you want to eat this egg without pot or fire, do you have a way?"
Su Su felt that it could be eaten raw, but she was afraid that the two would ask how to divide it, but she couldn't divide a raw egg into two equal portions.
"How to eat?" Xiao Bao'er asked Yao Xitong, and before the latter could speak, the magpie, which had been silent for a long time, swung his knife at the egg, and the egg on the table was neatly cut in half, and a translucent film firmly wrapped the egg liquid in the shell.
He Bo smiled slightly, the magpie knife is very beautiful, the internal force is applied to the knife, quickly cut the egg, and the hot blade makes the egg liquid instantly form a film. If he had cut this knife, he wouldn't have been able to do it better than the magpie.
Yao Xitong thought of more than that, the magpie's knife not only solved the tricky problem of how to eat eggs, but also showed his martial arts by the way, which played a certain deterrent effect on the gluttonous two.
Sure enough, without them opening their mouths, Gluttony took the initiative to say something about the ghost town.
The only yang house in the ghost town is the garden building, except here, all the houses in the town are yin houses. Every yin house has an owner, and if you want to stay in the ghost town, you either live in the outer building of the garden, or kill the ghost to occupy its yin house. The ghost town is deserted during the day and lively at night, and anyone who comes to the ghost town will either become a ghost or become a dead person.
The magpie asked, "Anyone can enter the ghost town?"
After a moment's pause, "You didn't meet the woodcutter when you came in, as long as you answer the questions correctly, you can enter the town." ”
Xiao Bao'er frowned and said: "It seems that there is an encounter, he asked me whether it was black or white, I said it was white, and he left." ”
Yao Xitong asked the glutton, puzzled, "What kind of problem is this, woodcutter?"
"If you had asked the woodcutter 'What the hell is this?' the woodcutter would have advised you not to enter the town. Instead of asking, you answered the woodcutter's question, and the woodcutter naturally thought that you belonged to the ghost town. ”
Everyone focused their attention on Xiao Bao'er, and she said with an innocent face, "It doesn't matter what black and white he is, it's only serious to be able to eat roast lamb shank." ”
Su Su asked, "Does answering black or white have an impact on us?"
Gluttony shook his head.
Xiao Bao'er said aggrievedly, "It's not my fault for this, it's all thanks to the man who sells meat, do you know where that person lives?"
Gluttony smiled, "All the people who do business in the ghost town must pay attention to the rules and barter, since you bought meat, it only means that the transaction is fair, and the meat seller naturally lives in the butcher shop." ”
"Where's the butcher?"
"Nature is where it belongs. ”
"Where is the butcher's shop supposed to be......"
One of them smiled, and seemed to like Xiao Baoer's ignorant and fearless appearance. The other glared at him, very unhappy that he laughed at such a moment. As soon as the two interacted like this, Yao Xitong could tell who was who, and was about to ask, but he forcibly ran out of the door and disappeared. The magpie wanted to chase after him, glanced at the coffin shop opposite and stood back in place.
Yao Xitong looked at the sky and said, "While it's still dark, let's go out and go around and see what kind of place this ghost town can't get out is." He Bo took the initiative to say, "Childe, the old slave stayed behind to take care of the luggage and livestock. The group went around the street from the backyard without going through the front door, "I was in a group with the princess, Su Su and Xi Guard, everyone acted separately, and returned to the outer building of the garden before dark." ”
Xiao Bao'er was dissatisfied with Yao Xitong's distribution and asked, "Isn't it safer for everyone to walk together?"
"Xiaoxiao, haven't you heard of don't put your eggs in one basket?" Thinking of the five mice in her stomach, Xiao Bao'er shot back unceremoniously, "There is only one egg, if something happens to me, you are just a useless basket, and you will all die." ”
Yao Xitong was speechless, and only after a while did he explain, "There are less than two hours before dark, and we can find a way out a little faster." You protect me, and the magpie protects Susu, and this distribution is the most beneficial. "The voice has not fallen, only listen...... Syllable...... ...... a few times, and the person who saw the performer before began to shout again, "Come on, come on, the latest monkey show opens, those who have money have a money field, and some people have a personal scene." ”
Xiao Bao'er ran away when she heard the shouting, and Yao Xitong followed closely behind. The magpie turned and walked in the opposite direction, seeing He Bo's martial arts, he didn't think that Yao Xitong would have an accident.
