Chapter 235: Doubt
I opened the door and reached for the leg of lamb. The shopkeeper asked again, "Guest officer, do you want anything else?" ”
"Not yet." After I put the roast leg of lamb on the table, Ye Ember and Xiao Baitang kept looking at the leg of mutton, and no one dared to reach out to touch it, but I took out a dagger and slashed twice on the leg of lamb. Strangely, the mutton that I had cut off didn't show any aroma, as if it had been cut open and was just a prop.
I asked, "Do any of you smell the scent?" ”
Ye Yan raised his head and said, "I smell it, it's fragrant, it's very fragrant!" ”
Xiao Baitang shook his head: "I didn't smell it at all." I don't like mutton, I want to vomit when I smell mutton, this leg of lamb is definitely not real! ”
The three of us looked at the leg of mutton and were stunned for a long time before Ye Ember spoke: "What I order, I eat, it's better than being a starving ghost." ”
"Wait a minute!" I raised my voice and shouted, "Little Er, come here!" ”
Just a second later, Xiao Er's voice rang out at the door: "What do you have to say from the guest officer?" ”
I knocked on the table and said, "I'm going to eat the secret bear's paw." Can you do it? ”
Xiao Er responded: "The guest officer can eat whatever he wants, and you will be satisfied." ”
I smiled and said, "The bear must be an old black blind man in the mountains of the northeast, the palm must be the forefoot, and the honey must be black honey from the deep mountains, preferably a honeycomb that has just been knocked down from the tree." Go for it! ”
I gave the shopkeeper a problem. Northeast bear paw is already the best in the mountains, especially the wild old bear, now it is not easy to find; Because the forepaw of the old bear eats honey all year round, it is soaked in honey, and it is the best of the best.
Black bees are also one of the few venomous bees in Northeast China, and they are rare to see in ordinary places, and even if they can be found, they may not be able to keep them fresh.
The dish I ordered, even if I wanted to make it for a state banquet, I had to prepare it in advance, and I ordered it so rashly, I don't believe anyone could bring it to the table for me except for the illusion.
What I didn't expect was that the shopkeeper just said, "Wait a minute", and turned around and went to the kitchen. I walked a few steps to the door, looked down the crack in the door, and saw the shopkeeper walking out of the kitchen with a silver tray.
I couldn't help but be secretly shocked, but the shopkeeper suddenly appeared at the door: "Guest officer, the secret bear paw you want." ”
It was only a second or two before and after I went from the table to the door, and it was only a matter of two breaths from the time I saw the shopkeeper walk out of the kitchen to the time he appeared in front of me, but he brought the secret bear paw under my nose.
By the time I sat back on the edge of the table with a blank face and a slightly hot bear's paw, Little Sugar's face was already pale.
I lifted the silver cover on the tray and pointed to the crystal clear bear's paw inside, "Can you smell it?" ”
The bear's paw on the plate was obviously fragrant and mouth-watering, but Ye Ember and Xiao Bai Sugar shook their heads together. I couldn't help but say to myself, "I'm the only one who can smell the smell on the plate?" ”
Xiao Baitang said in a trembling voice: "I heard that whoever came up with the things knows best." We...... Isn't it...... Is it already dead? ”
Ye Shen comforted: "At most, it can be regarded as a soul separation." If our shell remains intact, it will be easy to go back. Don't worry, Mama Dou and Lu Xiaoying are still outside, as long as Lu Xiaoying calculates that we are in danger, he will definitely take action......"
I slapped the table on the face: "I'm going to try again." Shopkeeper, come over to me! ”
"What do you command?" The shopkeeper really reappeared at the door within a breath.
I said coldly, "I'm going to eat a leg of lamb." ”
The shopkeeper habitually asked, "How do you want to eat?" Guarantee your satisfaction. ”
"Two-legged leg of a lamb, eat it raw! I want fresh, freshly chopped leg of lamb. As soon as I spoke, Ye Yan was suddenly startled: "Brother, don't play so big!" If this really comes up, won't it frighten the little white sugar? ”
The two-legged sheep does not refer to sheep, but to people who were eaten as food in bloody wars. There are many records in the ancient books of the past dynasties, especially in the era of war, the people are not able to make a living, it is difficult to make a plan, and some armies will use prisoners and even people as food to enrich military rations when they lack military rations. These innocent people who died in vain are called "two-legged sheep".
The shopkeeper at the door responded: "Guest officer, please wait a while." ”
This time, the shopkeeper didn't come back for a long time after he left. Ye Yan waited for a long time before he whispered: "Zhaozi, can't the shopkeeper go to chop his legs?" ”
I sneered, "The Soul Leaving is really fake, someone is lying to us. ”
"Damn!" Ye Yan slapped the table and stood up, "Dare to scare Lao Tzu!" ”
Ye Yan took out a handful* from his backpack and aimed it at the outside of the house. Furious gunfire blasted away a lantern in the hall. Before the lanterns that exploded into countless fireballs completely landed, the men and horses of the Hell Gate and the Hanging Mirror Division rushed out together.
Duan Yunfei said coldly: "Ye Yan, what do you want to do?" ”
Ye Shen roared angrily: "Duan Yunfei, Lin Jingyuan, you can let the horse come over as you want, don't play yin with me, it will anger Lao Tzu, what kind of special ring is not in the ring, Lao Tzu will let you go first!" ”
Duan Yunfei's face sank and said, "Ye Yan, this is in the Ghost Domain, I'm not in the mood to worry about you." Put it outside, just with that shot you just had, I want your life! ”
I raised my brow slightly.
Duan Yunfei has always given me the feeling that he is calm and relaxed, smiling and killing, even if he is facing people head-on, he will not show anger. But now Duan Yunfei's unusually face sank like water, and he even wanted to be angry, which showed that he was extremely irritable.
They had only entered the Ghost Domain an hour or two earlier than me, what was it that made Duan Yunfei so restless?
When Ye Yan was about to speak, Lin Jingyuan spoke: "Can I ask Brother Wu, what caused you to suspect us of secretly making trouble?" ”
I stood up and told me what happened after I came in: "Master Lin has always been good at figuring out the psychology of others, so he naturally thought that Xiao Baitang would think of washing his face before entering the house, so you prepared hot water in advance." ”
"As for what Ye Ember likes to eat, you have already prepared, so you can take out a roasted leg of lamb in just a few seconds. Ye Yan had doubts about what he was eating, and we would definitely follow his train of thought. ”
"The next person to speak is either me or Little White Sugar. Xiao Baitang is timid, more than ninety percent will not think of anything else, only I can open my mouth to tempt. And I am from the Northeast, and in addition to the mountain delicacies of the Northeast, there are only river fish. The mountain treasure may be even larger, as the bear's paw is the hardest thing to find near the Western Regions. ”
I kept staring at Lin Jingyuan's face as I spoke: "It is not difficult for Hall Master Lin to prepare something in advance; It is not difficult to get two people of similar appearance and stature to swap places back and forth. It's just that I don't understand, why does Hall Master Lin have to make me believe that I have left my body? ”
Lin Jingyuan smiled and said, "I have to say that Brother Wu's inference is quite reasonable. However, have you ever thought about the question, how many ingredients do I have to prepare to cope with what you order at random? If you don't have a recipe in your hand, I can't control the range of ingredients, in case you want to order dragon heart and phoenix liver, what can I take out to lie to you? ”
After my brows moved slightly, Lin Jingyuan said again: "There is a more important question, that is, why do I want you to believe that you are in a state of soul separation? It doesn't do me any good. ”
Lin Jingyuan's words are reasonable, but my inference seems very far-fetched. I really can't find any evidence to prove that Lin Jingyuan is secretly playing tricks.
I asked in a deep voice, "Then can Hall Master Lin help me explain what happened just now?" ”
Lin Jingyuan was slightly silent before he said: "There are some things, after I explain them, you may not believe them." Only when you see the facts will you believe an explanation that borders on absurdity. ”
Lin Jingyuan changed his words and said, "However, I can tell you bluntly that because of your temptation, someone will definitely die tonight." That shopkeeper will inevitably cut off someone's legs, and he won't stop until he achieves his goal. Brother Wu had better prepare early. ”
After Lin Jingyuan finished speaking, he turned around and retreated into the house, and the warlock of the Hanging Mirror Division added a few more defensive talismans to the already forbidden gate in a row.
Duan Yunfei said coldly: "Brother Wu, I only hope that the current life can make you believe that we don't have the intention of intriguing with you now. We're all in a dead end this time, whether it's you or me! Brother Wu take care! ”
After Duan Yunfei finished speaking, he also retreated to the room with his subordinates.
After Ye Yan came back, I asked, "Why do you have a gun in your hand?" ”
Ye Yan said: "Mama Dou put it in, probably to let us be on guard on the glider." ”
"No wonder Mama Dou said that you will use the contents of the backpack." I turned my hands behind my back a few times, "You showed your gun, the referee on the other side hasn't bothered us yet, they don't have the heart to care about the opponent?" ”
Ye Yan smiled disapprerovingly: "Aren't those two referees just decorations?" Why don't you count where the shopkeeper went? ”
I took out three fortune coins from my body: "It's useless to count him." Even if he was mixed up in the crowd, we would have no evidence to identify the other party. I'd better figure out who won't be able to save their leg tonight! ”
After I raised my hand and threw the fortune money on the table, three large coins stood on the table at the same time. Ye Shen exclaimed, "What's going on? ”
"The hexagram can't figure out who it is, and it doesn't even have a basic direction." I replied, "If it's random killing, then everyone in this inn tonight could be the lamb to the slaughter." Be careful. ”
