One hundred and forty-one, the heart of man and his own heart

Seeing that he couldn't catch up with the tree demon, Chen Kai no longer stayed in the gloomy mass grave in the back mountain, and turned around and headed in the direction of Guobei Town. At this time, it was noon, and he had stayed in Lanruo Temple for the past few days, and he hadn't tasted the ancient delicious food of this Chinese ghost story world.

At this time, the flow of people in Guobei Town is still very large, and many merchants also like to stop in the town after selling their goods. It is also densely populated and prosperous, and it is not much worse than the prosperity of those important towns.

Walking into the town, I found that the road in front of me was crowded at this time, and I curiously stepped forward to explore, only to see a shop guy in front of a steamed bun shop, a shop guy shouting at a ragged, dry and thin child beggar. The young man was about ten years old, wearing a black tattered fur hat on his head, his face and hands were covered with black charcoal, and he held a steamed bun in his left hand and his head with his right hand. Obviously hungry and ran into the steamed bun shop to grab the steamed buns.

At this time, the shopkeeper was scolding sternly: "What are you doing? Dead beggar, you don't want me to go, hurry up and don't get in the way of the store's business!" The young man was not angry, and grinned at the fellow and said, "Okay, let's go." But as soon as he turned around, he heard someone shouting, "Man, that beggar has hidden a steamed bun!" ”

The guy who heard the words thought about it, so what did he pay it back for? He shouted at the child beggar, "Wait, you put down the steamed bun for me!" The child suddenly panicked, and hurriedly stuffed the steamed bun hidden in his hand into his mouth, as if he was planning to take advantage of the time to finish the steamed bun.

When the man saw this, he was furious, and he threw his fist at the child beggar, and the child did not dare to dodge, and was knocked to the ground without any resistance, without saying anything; Just desperately rushing to swallow steamed buns. The onlookers on the side were still laughing and talking with cold eyes, and some even shouted, "Beat him to death, hit him in the head, kick him!" ”

Chen Kai had long been accustomed to the numbness of the residents of this town and the mentality of watching the excitement, and he was not in the mood to pay attention to the strange townspeople around him, so he turned his attention to the child who was still being kicked and beaten, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop the guy who was chasing and beating the boy. Chen Kai smiled and said, "Don't be rude, he's still a child, and his money is counted on my head." Then he took out the money, bought two steamed buns, wrapped them in paper, and handed them to the boy beggar.

The child rubbed the bruised marks on his body silently, staring astringently at the steamed bun handed to him by Chen Kai, but he hesitated and didn't dare to reach out to take it; After all, in this town, he had met people who were "looking for fun" who were given food first, but then beaten up again.

Chen Kai looked at the child's longing gaze and cowering attitude as he stared at the steamed bun in his hand, suddenly understood something, sighed, stuffed the steamed bun into the child's arms, and gently patted him on the shoulder; Turn around and leave, this is the numbness of this era, he can't change anything, but when he meets him, he will take care of it, don't ask for anything else, and only An'er!

Shaking his head, throwing the trace of boredom that had just sprouted in his mind out of the clouds, Chen Kai walked to the most luxurious restaurant in Guobei Town, ready to sacrifice his own five internal organs temple. Chen Kai's dress is still very decent, especially the dusty temperament hidden in his body, which does not look like an ordinary civilian; As we all know, the restaurant guys rely on their eyes, hands, and mouth to make a living in the tavern.

This eye is the eyesight, and the ability to pretend to be a defender is a must for all guys, and the hands and feet are quick and diligent, and the mouth is naturally able to speak. Only the guy with these three items is the best guy, obviously this restaurant doesn't seem to be big, but the guy inside has skilled skills. As soon as the shopkeeper saw Chen Kai enter the restaurant, he greeted him with a lot of smiles, and warmly beckoned Chen Kai to walk to the table and sit down. Chen Kai instructed the shopkeeper to take the food and said, "Quickly cut a catty of beef and half a catty of mutton liver." After a pause, perhaps thinking that he should treat himself, he turned his head to the shopkeeper and added, "Do you have any other dishes that you can recommend here?" ”

"Okay, guest officer, you can ask the right person, don't look at our restaurant is not big, this goes south and north, flies in the sky, crawls on the ground, swims in the water is dazzling, our best famous dish is flower quail, fried duck paw, chicken tongue soup, chrysanthemum rabbit silk, camphor legs・・・・・ after these, you can also add some desserts, there are four dried fruits, four fresh fruits, two salty and sour, four candied fruits can be used for you to choose, and the wine is also a good aging."

Chen Kai nodded, "Then add me the famous dishes of your store, and then fresh fruits and salty and sour!" "After tasting the absolute food made by Huang Rong in the eagle shooting, after Huang Rong popularized the foundation of popular science food, he knew the meaning of those nouns, and the four fruits were lychee, longan, steamed dates, and ginkgo. Fresh fruit is the fruit of the moment; The salty and sour cherry and ginger are plums, and the four candied fruits are rose kumquats, fragrant grapes, icing peaches, and pear flesh.

After a while, with the efforts of the shopkeeper, Chen Kai soon piled up a large plate of food in front of him, and after Chen Kai ate a full meal, he not only paid but also tipped the little er. After going out, he happened to be bumped into head-on by a person, Chen Kai looked down, but who was Ning Caichen? At this moment, Ning Caichen just wanted to apologize after bumping into someone, but found that it was Chen Kai, and immediately said, "It turned out to be Chen Daochang, Chen Daochang is good" said and covered the cloth bag in his pocket, and kept smirking; Seeing his happy expression, Chen Kai shook his head helplessly, and said, "Caichen, what are you doing here?" Look at you. ”

Ning Caichen was pulled back to his senses by Chen Kai's voice, and hurriedly smiled: "I'm going to the city to collect the debt." Speaking of this, he suddenly became mysterious, and said in a low voice: "Daochang Chen, let me tell you, didn't you say last time that I didn't have money to stay?" I'm here to collect my bills, but it's actually because my ledger got wet when I came. The above accounts were all spent. At that time, the owner of the inn didn't admit it, so I didn't have the money to go home to come to Lanruo Temple to spend the night, but fortunately, I was smart enough to fill in the above accounts, and this time I received the debt! ”

Looking at Ning Caichen's smug look, Chen Kai, who heard the words, couldn't help but think of the scene in the original movie where he went to collect the debt, and he couldn't help but want to laugh; What's because he's so smart? The people in the store knew that it was Ning Caichen who filled in the data himself, and when he went to the store for the first time, because of the heavy rain, the papers were all blurry, right? It's only been a few days since you've been able to suddenly see a note on the blackened ledger? (To be continued.) )
