Chapter 40: Greedy Wolf
Hearing that Zhou Xiucai had made a big fuss, the village chief and the three of them changed their faces, first greeted Zhang Youke, and then hurried towards Zhou Sheng's side. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Zhang Youke heard that something had happened in Zhou Sheng's house, and he also invited the goddess and the Taoist aunt, but he didn't have a big expression, just nodded slightly. And Gao Zhong had already guessed about this matter, so he was not very surprised.
Yang Sanlao and the three old men rushed towards Zhou Sheng's house, but Zhou Sheng and Zhou didn't want to see them, and only said that nothing happened and drove the three of them back.
On this day, Gao Zhong and Zhang Youke were together almost during the day, pairing and chatting.
It was late in the evening when I went home.
"Gao Zhong, have you heard that Xiucai's family invited a great god today and set up several tables!"
As soon as he got home, the little scholar walked up to Gao Zhong with a smile and said to Gao Zhong very excitedly. His expression was as if the words "I got this thing done" were engraved on his face.
"Eat a lot!"
Gao Lianquan licked his mouth, obviously these two people were secretly watching.
Seeing the expressions of the two, Gao Zhong grinned: "How about we go to eat something good tonight?" ”
The little scholar nodded: "Go, go!" ”
Gao Zhong's words are very clear, that is, to eat the table of wine and food that is sacrificed to the gods.
According to the rules, all the banquets used to worship the gods are generally not accepted at night, and candles will be lit outside, which can be regarded as waiting for the gods of the four directions to eat.
Gao Shangwu also nodded, then wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth and stood aside.
……
The night was quiet, the door of Zhou Sheng's house was still closed, and today in order to thank the gods, Zhou Sheng's family closed the door early, and also closed the latch according to the rules, so as not to disturb the gods.
Outside the house is different from the past, there are two tables of banquets on it, full, mainly meat, a table of nearly one or twenty dishes, obviously a bloody investment.
Candles were lit on the wine table, illuminating everything on the two tables.
"Good guy, this is richer than the dishes on our Zhangfu Festival!"
The little scholar looked at the table full of dishes by candlelight, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and then ran directly to the subject, grabbed a roast chicken and began to eat.
Gao Shangwu didn't say anything, jumped on the bench, grabbed a duck and stuffed it in his mouth!
Although the little scholar is a scholar from a large family, and he still follows Zhang Youke, a kind-hearted master, he has not lived much of a hard life. But since the death of Master Zhang, the little scholar has followed Zhang Youke to keep the spirit together, and he has been a vegetarian for nearly a year, and he can't stand it. Although Gao Zhong occasionally took him to open meat, but how could that be enough?
And although Gao Shangwu lived in the city with Gao Lianquan, the life of the soldiers was only slightly better than that of the peasants, and he could only eat meat during the New Year's holidays, so when he saw the meat on the table, he couldn't help it.
Although Gao Zhong's life in his previous life was good, eating meat has become a very ordinary thing relying on the development of the country, but after coming to this world, he basically eats vegetarian every day, all of which are all kinds of dishes, and he is tired of eating crookedly.
So after seeing a table of delicacies, Gao Zhong couldn't hold back, and also jumped on the bench with the movements of Gao Shangwu, picked up a pork leg, and began to eat and drink.
The three of them were all ugly when they ate things, and they fed them into their mouths almost just by looking at things, so their mouths, faces, and bodies were covered with oil, and their hands were also covered with minced meat and oil.
They glanced at each other's eating faces and soon burst out laughing!
"What are you doing?"
At this moment, the door was suddenly opened, and a short and fat figure stood in front of the three of them, and he pointed at the three of them angrily and shouted loudly.
"Eat!"
The little scholar glanced at it, saw that it was a child, and didn't care, and continued to nibble on the roast chicken in his mouth.
"Daddy, Auntie, come out quickly, Gao Zhong's Death Calamity Star has come to us to steal something and eat!"
At this time, the short and fat boy began to shout, this baby is Zhou An.
"Oh no, hurry up!"
Hearing the shout, Gao Zhong immediately shouted at the little scholar and Gao Shangwu.
This crime of stealing and eating other people's sacrifices to the gods is not small, and they should be careful.
"This dead baby, it's really they are mischievous!"
But they were still late, and Zhou soon walked out with a feather duster and stood at the gate angrily.
"Wow, you are a few babies who are not small, dare to come here to steal food!"
Zhou looked at Gao Zhong, the little scholar and Gao Shangwu, and said viciously.
"What's wrong with stealing food, these are the compensation for your injury to Gao Zhong who was almost burned to death, my lord's illness, how many bites did you eat?"
The little scholar holding the roast chicken immediately began to say with a weak heart.
Gao Shangwu ignored Zhou's words, but continued to eat on the side, then picked up a plate of sauce elbows, poured them into his clothes, and then continued to search for the rest of the delicious things.
"Don't take it!"
Looking at Gao Shangwu's movements, Zhou An was in a hurry, he came out in the middle of the night for the purpose of stealing some delicious food, but he didn't expect that Gao Zhong and them would take the lead.
"Hurry up, grab the delicious food, let's go quickly!"
Gao Zhong grinned at Zhou, then picked up the two largest legs of lamb on the table and began to run into the distance.
"Yes, yes!"
When the little scholar heard this, he was also shocked, and immediately grabbed a few plates, held them in his arms, and ran.
Among the three, only Gao Shangwu did not act, he saw that Gao Zhong and the little scholar took away seven or eight points from a table of dishes, so he also grabbed the remaining two chicken legs and put them in his mouth.
Then he looked at the other table, which they didn't take, and then went straight under the table and squatted up.
Gao Shangwu rubbed his clothes with both hands, removed the oil stains on his body, and then directly used his hands to hold up the thick solid wood table, stood up and ran in the direction of Gao Zhong and them......
Rao is noble and strong body, otherwise this solid wood table and the more than 20 dishes on it are not something that ordinary people can lift.
"I'll go, Brother Shangwu, don't be too greedy, do what you can!"
Gao Zhong looked back, but he was happy. Gao Shangwu was not much taller than the table, even if he raised his hand to hold the table from below, from a distance, it looked like the table had become a fine, running around the mountains.
"Woo woo, woo woo."
Gao Shangwu didn't care, because he was holding a chicken leg, so he couldn't speak clearly, but to the effect that he didn't care about me......
Facts have proved that Gao Shangwu's decision was right, Zhou Shi was in front of him all the way, but he didn't catch up with anyone, Gao Shangwu held such a heavy table and actually arrived in the house before Gao Zhong and the little scholar.
……
Gao Zhong and the others also made a big fuss about the Zhou family last night, which didn't cause much of a sensation in the village the next day, mainly because the Zhou family didn't say anything, and the people around them didn't care.
However, there was another topic in the village that caused a storm: the goddess died, the goddess who presided over the burning of Gao Zhong, and the goddess who made sacrifices to the Zhou family died!
