Chapter 140: Human Bones

Yunzi said: "I, I'm in a hurry, can you accompany me to the convenience first?" These people make me feel a little scared. ”

Lu Jinping was a little funny in his heart, Yunzi was strong in martial arts, but when he was scared, he asked him to be accompanied by a person who didn't know martial arts, which was really unreasonable in the eyes of outsiders, but Lu Jinping knew that she was just seeking psychological comfort. nodded at the moment and said, "I happen to be in a hurry, let's go together." ”

He spoke loudly, and the people around him also heard it, in fact, he just wanted to tell everyone what he was going to do, and then took Yunzi towards the side of the woods.

When she came to the woods, Yun Ziqiao's face was slightly red and said, "You are here, I will go a little further, you are not allowed to come." ”

Lu Jinping smiled, nodded and turned his back and said, "That's okay, right?" ”

Yunzi grinned, jumped like a fawn, and went into the woods in the distance.

Lu Jinping walked to a pile of rubble, ripped open his pants and urinated. After urinating, he was tying his trouser belt, and his eyes fell on a pile of messy bones not far away, and he couldn't help but sigh.

These bones are new and old, long and short, in various shapes, some of which are animal bones, but there is a skeleton that caught Lu Jinping's attention, which is obviously a human pelvic bone.

Lu Jinping stepped forward and squatted down and carefully observed his pelvis. Judging by the shape of the pelvis, it should be man's. Immediately after that, several more bones were discovered, which were the man's collarbone and leg bone.

Lu Jinping was checking, and suddenly heard someone patting him on the shoulder behind him, which startled him, but when he looked back, it was Yunzi.

Yunzi looked at him curiously: "What are you doing squatting here?" - Oh, a lot of bones! ”

Lu Jinping picked up a human leg bone and said, "This is a human leg bone." Roughly from the number of bones, there are no less than ten human bones here. ”

Yunzi exclaimed, lowered his voice and said, "How did these bones come from?" Could it be these people ......? ”

Lu Jinping nodded slowly: "This place is not far from the cave where they live, what you just said is right, the quality of personnel is not written on the face......"

As soon as he said this, he heard an exclamation from the direction of the cave.

Lu Jinping and Yunzi glanced at each other, they were both taken aback, and each drew his blade and rushed towards the cave.

When the two of them got closer, nothing happened. Those people were still busy, and it was Jiang Xiaozhou who screamed, she covered her mouth with one hand, and pointed to a blue and white snake held by a strong man with the other.

The man was holding a blue and white serpent. grinning, he smiled at Jiang Xiaozhou and said, "Don't be afraid, girl, this thing is dead, snake soup is the best, specially boiled soup for you to drink." ”

Lu Jinping glanced at Yunzi. The two of them returned their blades to their respective sheaths. Lu Jinping walked up to Du Hai and clasped his fists and said, "Du Zhuangshi, we want to play in various caves on the mountain, but there is no guide, I don't know if you are willing to be our guide?" ”

Du Hai said: "Don't worry, eat first, and then let's talk about taking you to play, don't worry." ”

Lu Jinping turned his head to look at Yunzi again, Yunzi nodded slowly, and then Lu Jinping took a deep breath and said, "Du Zhuangshi." I found a pile of bones in the grove over there, and many of them were human bones, do you know what's going on? ”

Hearing this, Wang Shiduo and the others were taken aback, and quickly got up, pressed their hands on the hilt of their knives, and stared nervously at those strong men.

But the strong men in tiger skin aprons were still busy with their own work. Du Hai glanced at Lu Jinping's gesture and said, "That's right, it's a human bone, and it was drifted to the island by the waves." We're going to gather these bodies and put them here. ”

Lu Jinping observed those bones, and indeed found no obvious injuries, and judging from the bone condition, there was no sign of homicide. Can't tell it's murder.

Yunzi interjected, "Since you pity these drowned people, why don't you bury their bones, but transport them here to be released?" ”

Du Hai glanced at Yunzi and said, "Be with us here, they won't be alone." Besides. Buried in the ground, the corpse still has to rot, and only the bones remain. In the future, the bones will also be turned into dirt, so why should they be buried in the ground, and it would not be better to throw them on the ground to give the beast a full meal? ”

When Yun Zi heard his strange talk, he couldn't help but roll his eyes, and shook his head helplessly, Lu Jinping said: "The Chinese pay attention to entering the soil for safety, and the dead must be buried underground to get peace, and let the corpse be eaten by wild beasts, this is not humane." ”

Du Hai smiled faintly and said, "I don't know them, why should I help them bury their bodies?" If we can transport them to where we live and have company, I think we are worthy of them. ”

Lu Jinping couldn't find the words to refute the other party's strange theory, and shook his head with a wry smile, saying: "Don't talk about it, let's go as soon as possible, I'm very short on time." ”

Du Hai said: "No matter how anxious you are, at this time, you insist on refusing to eat, are you afraid that we will poison it?" If that's okay, we'll eat it for you first. ”

Lu Jinping was really worried about this, but when he heard the other party say this, he was a little embarrassed, smiled, and said, "It's not because of this, it's just that we are really short on time." ”

Du Hai said: "If you want to go by yourself, then please poop, I have to eat before I have the strength to walk, so you want me to be your guide, then you have to stay, you eat or not, I want to eat, you have to wait for me." In addition, ask me to be a guide, a tael of silver a day, and pay in advance. ”

Wang Shiduo was very grateful, Du Hai had just rescued him from the black bear's clutches, so he helped him speak: "Du Engong is right, let's stay and eat, and have the strength to eat." ”

Lu Jinping heard what the other party said to this point, so he had no choice but to nod and say, "What you said is also reasonable, okay, let's wait for you to eat first." As for the guide fee of one tael a day, this ......"

He turned his face to Zhang Yousheng. Zhang Yousheng was busy and said, "Okay, no problem, we agreed." ”

The hunter with a long snake drew a short knife, peeled off the snake's skin, removed all the internal organs, chopped off the snake's head with a knife, chopped the snake's flesh into several sections with the knife, and threw it into another pot to boil.

The fragrance of snake meat wafting out is different from the fragrance of the pot of meat just now, Lu Jinping sniffed hard and said, "This song tastes really good."

Du Hai took a few sticks of firewood and added them to the bonfire, and said, "This soup should be boiled for a little longer, and the taste will be stronger and more delicious." The pot over there is more fragrant, and the meat in the pot is a unique animal on the island, and the taste is very delicious. I don't know what this animal is called, we just call it delicious and don't give it a name. You can taste it, and when we go on an expedition in the mountains, we may come across this delicacy, and then you will know what it looks like. ”

Hearing him say this, the others aroused their curiosity and speculated about what this island specialty looked like. Jiang Xiaozhou asked Du Hai to describe it, Du Hai smiled and said: "Anyway, there are hands and feet, I can't say anything, I'll see for myself when the time comes." ”

After boiling for another long time, the soup has turned a thick white. Du Hai poured out some powder from a small leather bag, sprinkled it into the pot of soup, and stirred. Yunzi was a little nervous and asked, "What was thrown into the soup?" ”

"Arsenic."

This sentence startled several people, and Yao Dongcai even pulled out a single knife, but Yunzi smiled and said: "It's the first time I've heard that the person who poisoned told others that he was poisoning. ”

Du Hai scooped a spoonful with a soup spoon to his mouth, blew it first and then drank it all, and said with a long sigh: "Grandma's, it tastes really good." ”

Seeing that he put down the powder, he scooped up the pot of soup and drank it, of course, it couldn't be poison, it was probably salt or something. Yao Dongcai embarrassedly inserted the long knife back into the scabbard.

Du Hai took the bowl and filled it himself, glanced at them and said, "If you want to drink and eat, you can do it yourself, there is no one to serve here." With that, he sat down on a stone by the mouth of the cave with the bowl of broth, and began to chew heavily.

The other strong men also came separately, filled the delicious broth, and sat down on a few stones at the entrance of the cave to eat and drink, and paid no attention to them.

Wang Shiduo said: "Let's eat too, we have enough strength to eat." ”

As he spoke, he took an earthen bowl and a bowl of delicious soup, sat down by the campfire and began to eat.

I heard Lu Jinping say that human bones were found, and Zhang Yousheng and others were still very nervous. But when he saw that the men had eaten and drunk first, and it was evident that there should be no poison in the soup, he gradually put his heart down, and went forward to take the delicious broth and meat, and sat down by the campfire, and ate while he roasted it. It was especially delicious in the cold wind.

The flavor of the delicious broth was much stronger than that of the snake soup, so these people mainly went for the delicious soup and meat.

Yunzi bit her lip and said to Lu Jinping, "I'll also serve you a bowl, it seems that there is no problem." ”

Lu Jinping pointed to the pot of snake soup: "I want to taste this taste." ”

Yunzi nodded, then filled her with a bowl and brought it to him, and folded a branch to make chopsticks and handed it to him. Afterwards, Yunzi hesitated a little with the earthen bowl, not knowing which pot of soup to hold. Lu Jinping took a bite of snake meat and drank another bowl, smacked his lips and said to Yunzi: "You can also try snake meat soup, I think this thing is better, - you shouldn't be afraid of snake meat and dare not eat it, right?" ”

If it weren't for the latter sentence, Yunzi might not have eaten snake soup, she always felt that snake meat was disgusting, but chose that delicious soup. But Lu Jinping used the radical method, and Yun Zi knew that it was the radical method, but he still snorted unconvinced and said, "Who is afraid?" Isn't it snake meat? What's so great, just eat it. ”

After that, Yunzi also took a bowl of snake meat soup and sat next to Lu Jinping by the bonfire, and ate it with relish.

was eating, suddenly, the bowl in Lu Jinping's hand fell to the ground with a thud, shattered, and Lu Jinping stared blankly at the fragments of the earthen bowl on the ground.

Yunzi couldn't help but smile when he saw it: "Brother, you're eating snake soup soup, but you're not drinking, why can't you even hold the bowl?" Could it be that the delicacy is too good to get drunk? As he spoke, he put down the bowl, stood up and went to get the bowl to refill the snake soup for Lu Jinping, but under this rise, he was shaky. (To be continued.) )
