The midday sun pierces people like golden light. In the distance, the two dusty figures were walking in the direction of the sun.

"Look, it's almost there. Wu Yi raised his hand to cover the sun, looked at the town not far ahead, and said happily.

The drunk man half-squinted at the town in front of him, licked his chapped lips, and nodded happily. At this time, the drunk man no longer has the lazy atmosphere after a hangover.

Before this, Wu Yi and the drunken man had been on the road for two days. The coyote raided the land of the rat king, resulting in the loss of the water bag that Wu Yi was carrying. And the drunken man's waist only hangs a wine jug. Wine can intoxicate people, but it can't quench thirst.

Between the mountains and forests, there is no worry about food, but it is difficult to find water. In the past two days, Wu Yi and the drunken man have been drinking morning dew and persevering. For this reason, the two also had diarrhea. However, because of the experience they shared in these two days, the two became familiar with each other.

Strange to say, Taal Town is a well-known trading town on the border of the Phantom Beast Mountains, and the streets should be full of people. At this time, the two of them walked on the street, but they saw that the door was closed, and even if they saw that the door of some people's houses was open, they could not find the owner's house. Originally, Wu Yi and the drunken man were about to enter the city to ask people about the news of the separated caravan, but looking at the current situation, they could only find it themselves.

It was originally the noon sun, and the sun was not only bright, but also very dazzling, but Wu Yi and the others walked in this huge town, but they couldn't find a single figure. Not only a human figure, but also a human voice. Except for the sound of the wind, the place is unusually quiet. Walking in this fiery sunshine, Wu Yi's heart stretched out a trace of coolness.

"Why not one. Wu Yi couldn't help but ask the drunken man.

"I don't know, I've only been to this town once. The drunken man also replied suspiciously.

Wu Yi and the others didn't understand the current situation here, so they could only walk aimlessly. Although this town is remote, because of trade, the families are richer than other remote towns, and they all build stone brick houses, and the roof can be baked tiles.

After walking around the main streets of the town, they didn't see anyone, so Wu Yi and the others began to wander around the more remote streets. Along the way, although the town is quiet, the streets are also clean, and it is really inexplicable that it does not look like it has been hit by a bandit or other disaster.

At noon, it was the time for people to eat, and no one could be found, Wu Yi and the drunken man were also hungry, so they had to return to the main street to find a small restaurant. In front of the store, the drunk man wanted to propose to enter over the wall, but Wu Yi reached out and pushed the door, which was unintentional, but pushed the door open.

The two of them entered the house and saw that there were leftovers from other people's meals on several tables in the store.

Wu Yi carefully looked at the rest of the food on the table and said, "It looks like I ate leftovers yesterday, it seems that the diners are in a hurry, but they are not in a hurry." ”

"Why. The drunk man asked suspiciously.

Wu Yi pointed to one of the tables and said: "This should be the meal that the diners have eaten half of and left before they finish eating, the reason why I say this is because there is a steamed bun in the bowl, only a few bites have been eaten, and most of it has not been eaten, although it is relatively rich here, but the guests in the past are not necessarily rich, even if they don't finish it, they will take it with them and keep it for the next time they are hungry." ”

That's why I said the guests were in a hurry. ”

And the reason why I don't panic is because the door is closed. After the customer left in a hurry, the store closed the door, and it was precisely because of the hurry that it was only closed and not locked, and the store should have gone somewhere with the customer. ”

The drunk man nodded approvingly. At the same time, he also glanced at Wu Yigao twice, and the first glance was because Wu Yi dared to stay and fight side by side with him. The second look is Wu Yi's ability to observe and analyze. Anyone can look at it, but what we have to analyze from what we see is related to the mind.

The mind is innate, with lows and highs. Some people seem honest and deceitful, because they have a low mind and cannot analyze things comprehensively, and Wu Yi obviously belongs to the latter.

Wu Yi and the others went to the back kitchen to find ingredients and made their own food. When he was in Mad Dog Township, Wu Yi often cooked. At this time, it was naturally difficult for Wu Yi. The drunk man burned the fire under the stove, Wu Yi washed the rice, boiled the rice, steamed the rice, then cut the vegetables and stir-fried vegetables, brushed and brushed a few plates of small fried vegetables, and the small fried shredded meat was ready.

No matter when, it's always hard to think about things when you're hungry, and it's the same now, the two of them always have to solve the current stomach problem first. Wu Yi put the dishes on the table, and at some point, the drunk man had already made a pot of wine and put it on the table, and there were two wine bowls on the table.

From birth to the present, for more than ten years, Wu Yi has never really drunk wine, but just tasted a sip of wine from the little old man curiously. After tasting it, it was spicy and bitter, which made Wu Yi cough again and again, and he couldn't think of why the little old man could taste that intoxicated expression.

So when the drunk man just wanted to fill the wine bowl in front of Wu Yi, Wu Yi hurriedly raised his hand and refused.

"I'm underage and can't drink. Wu Yi hurriedly said.

"What are you afraid of, there is no law in the empire that prohibits minors from drinking. What are you afraid of? Drink. ”

The drunk man said as he poured wine into Xiang Wu Yi's wine bowl. No matter how Wu Yi used his hands to block the wine. The drunken man's hand was entangled, and he could always pour some wine into Wu Yi's cup, and after a while, Wu Yi's bowl was already full.

After the drunk man filled himself, he pretended to be angry and scolded: "It's a man, just drink!"

Well, when the words are all said, can Wu Yi say that he is not a man?

"Come, let's go. Seeing Wu Yi sit down, the drunk man picked up the wine glass and carried it to Wu Yi's wine bowl, Wu Yi had to reluctantly pick up the wine bowl and touch the bowl with the drunken man. After touching it, the drunk man seemed to have obtained the long-awaited fairy dew, and opened his mouth to drink most of the bowl. Wu Yi, on the other hand, just frowned and took a big sip.

In the first mouth, Wu Yi only felt a trace of bitterness, and when it entered his throat, the spicy taste hit. Wu Yi's brows were even worse. I could only swallow the wine quickly. After taking a bite, Wu Yi hurriedly ate the vegetables, wanting to suppress the wine.

Hahaha

The drunk man looked at Wu Yi drinking like this, and laughed a few times in amusement. But this smile made him laugh at the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, and when Wu Yi saw it, he instantly felt that the drunk man was a few years older, not like he was in his prime, but had the meaning of entering middle age.

"Why do you like to drink, it's bitter and astringent, what's the good thing?" Wu Yi asked suspiciously.

Wu Yi had already asked the little old man a question like this, but the answer he got was, it's better to sleep after drinking.

"Drinking is so good, but I love to forget. The drunk man sighed

"After drinking, the past can be forgotten, all can be forgiven, all can be forgiven, all can be made, all can make me no longer hate, or not so easy to hate, only in this way can I maintain my life. ”

The drunk man said and drank a few more bowls to himself.

Even if the drunk man doesn't say it, Wu Yi also knows that the drunk man likes to drink because he has something on his mind, which is quite similar to the little old man who raised Wu Yi to grow up.

When people have enough food and drink, they are prone to sleepiness. During this period, Wu Yi only drank a few sips with the drunk man, and was eating more vegetables. At this time, he was also a little sleepy and drunk. Sleepiness and drunkenness come together, and people just want to sleep. After eating and drinking, the sleepy two found a room where no one lived. Lie down and sleep. It doesn't matter where the people from other towns go.

Sleep until the sunset is gone, and the night is just coming. Outside the street of the hotel, there was a noise. There are far and near. There was a faint sound of a child crying, and the sound of a woman scolding, at first the sound of one or two people, then the sound got closer and closer, and the voices of a dozen or twenty or more people came from a distance.
