Chapter 229: True Colors
"Guest, do you want to eat it with me?"
"It's delicious!"
"Really!"
Ran Bing listened, her body trembling.
Because her eyes clearly saw the appearance of the snake that had been handed over at this moment!
He was caught up in his hands.
He is frantically struggling!
The body is big and small, and in an instant, it changes countless postures.
For a moment he was a terrible monster like a ghost in a nightmare.
In a moment he became a terrible serpent wrapped around the sun!
After a while, he was a magical creature with an incredibly beautiful crown of feathers and wings.
The entire bookstore is in turmoil as the monster struggles.
Around the owner of the bookstore, there was a continuous spatial ripple trajectory.
It was the basilisk that resisted as it struggled to the death.
Pity......
The owner of the bookstore just raised his hand slightly, and all the resistance and struggle finally came to nothingness.
The basilisk reverted to a weak, limp little snake.
It was lifted in his hand, all the bones were broken, the small feathered crown-like head, drooping, and the terrible snake pupils, starlessly open.
Eat Him?
Ran Bing immediately shook his head, his face was a little pale: "Thank you for your kindness......"
"It's just ......," she thought for a moment, swallowing what she had meant to say back into her stomach.
Positive rejection, the consequences are catastrophic!
Because Ran Bing knows that he has no right to refuse!
But she didn't dare to really say yes.
Ran Bing is not stupid, she imagined the identity of that snake.
Nine times out of ten, he is the so-called father of the serpents that the Kunyang people believe in.
The source of her world's woes.
So, He is the Serpent God!
Eat a snake god?
Ran Bing just thought about it, and those employees of the scarlet beast and the umbrella of no one or ghost instinctively resisted.
Moreover, it is a tribute.
What does the tribute mean? No explanation needed!
So, Ran Bing thought about it and chose an honest answer: "I don't dare to eat ......"
Truly!
She didn't dare!
Not just for fear of aberration, but also because of ...... She's not eligible!
Ling Ping'an looked at the guest in front of him, and he scratched his head.
"Dare to catch it or not?" It's a little weird!
It's a normal thing, though.
Just like Ling Ping'an, from childhood to adulthood, he did not eat coriander and celery.
So......
Carrying the serpent in his hand, the peace of the soul is also troubled.
Because, although he loves to eat, he ......
He doesn't want to kill!
From childhood to adulthood, apart from fish and shrimp, Ling Ping'an has not killed anything else with his own hands.
The main thing is the fear of blood!
I thought that I could ask this guest to help slaughter it, and then eat it together for supper.
But now it seems......
Looking at the pale face of this guest, Ling Ping'an probably knew that she didn't dare to kill her......
But here's the problem......
Since I didn't dare to kill, I didn't dare to eat.
How did she come up with the idea to bring a snake?
"Does her family have snakes?" Ling Ping'an thought, "It should be! ”
The Quang Nam area has a tradition of eating snakes since ancient times!
After all, ancient Quang Nam was a wet barrier for exiled prisoners.
Eating snakes, frogs, even owls and mice, those are all traditional arts.
I think that back then, the great writer Liu Zongyuan fell in love with eating frogs after coming to Guangnan, and wrote a special letter to his good friend Han Yu to introduce several ways to eat frogs.
But after the advent of industrial civilization, as environmentalism took root in the hearts of the people.
Wild animals are basically uneaten.
In its place was the rise of aquaculture.
Ling Ping'an remembered that in the suburbs and villages of Jiangcheng City, there were several bases for breeding snakes and frogs.
Specially supplied to restaurants in Jiangcheng City, which is safe and hygienic, and inexpensive.
Therefore, in Lingping's mind, this snake should have been bred by this guest's house or taken from a friend.
As for wild snakes?
Ling Ping never thought about it.
Because the Federal Empire has a well-established Wildlife Protection Act.
All wild snakes are classified as 'forbidden to catch/eat', and the rare species are identified as 'prison snakes'.
No educated adult would do such a stupid thing!
The forest police will not allow anyone to swagger around the city with a wild snake.
Thinking of this, Ling Ping'an said to the guest: "Guest, you sit down first...... I'll take this snake and deal with it first! ”
Since he didn't dare to kill himself, this guest didn't dare to kill either.
Then there is only one way to go - just go to the bar!
Anyway, the jar of wine is also placed.
It's better to use it to soak in snake wine, and when my aunt comes back, I will surprise or frighten her!
So, he picked up the snake in his hand and turned and walked upstairs.
Ran Bing carefully sat on the sofa.
She looked at the bookstore owner, holding the snake god in her hand, and walked into the distance step by step.
His figure passed before the silent abyss of darkness.
Walked up a staircase that flowed with darkness.
Crunch crunch!
The staircase made an eerie and terrifying sound at his feet.
Countless terrible evil pupils opened in the dark staircase.
Countless huge tentacles slid quietly in the darkness.
Terrible babbling, squirming sounded.
"Traitor!" They seem to be saying, "Turn your back on your master...... Dead and innocent......"
These terrible whispers are whispering in some extremely terrifying and strange language.
But I don't know why, Ran Bing can understand.
It's just that while understanding, Ran Bing suddenly found that his blood was frozen.
She looked down and saw a frosty layer slowly spreading from her skin.
It was a punishment for hearing and seeing things she shouldn't have heard and seen!
The frost condenses quickly!
Freeze her, even her soul!
What's worse is that in this bookstore, Ran Bing found that he had lost all shelter and protection.
This frightened her.
Meow!
A cat meow pierced through her soul.
The little black cat jumped down from the counter and jumped on top of her.
Behind the cat goddess, the pyramids begin to appear.
The faint golden light soothed Ran Bing.
The frost subsides quickly!
Ran Bing has regained her freedom!
She looked at the cat sitting on her lap and quickly said, "Thank you!" ”
Meow!
The kitten barked softly, as if to say: This is what I deserve, no thanks.
Then, he jumped off Ran Bing's body, and then obediently lay at Ran Bing's feet.
Like a loyal hound, but also like a cat guarding the granary for its owner.
………………………………
Ling Ping'an opened the refrigerator door and took out the wine bottle that the guest had brought last time.
Opening the cap, he put the snake in his hand inside.
It's also a bit strange to say.
Originally, Ling Ping'an was worried that this wine bottle might not be able to hold this snake.
But......
He only loosened the rope that bound the snake, and the snake slid into the bottle.
And, it looks just right!
He scratched his head, didn't think too much of it, and recorked the bottle.
Then he put the bottle of wine next to the refrigerator, and when he was done, he turned around and walked downstairs.
The moment he went downstairs, under the sofa in the living room, one monster after another crawled out.
These monsters are about the size of doves, and they have ten long, tiny legs, but these legs are obscured by the glowing tentacles that grow from the sides of their bodies, so that outsiders can't see them clearly.
They have no eyes, no other exposed organs, and seem to rely entirely on their glowing tentacles for their movements.
They crawl and crawl in dense numbers to count, filling the entire living room!
They crawled towards the bottle that had been placed next to the refrigerator.
Densely covered over the bottle.
From their gastropods and mouthparts, long, slender and sharp needles protrude.
These needles are incorporeal!
They stab at the bottle, easily into the bottle.
The bottle shook violently.
But in an instant, there was no movement.
But those terrible monsters didn't stop.
Their tentacles shimmer in the darkness with terrifying colors, weaving together complex and terrifying whispers.
It's a great job.
It's their job.
Fulfill all the owner's requests regarding food or anything else!
Even if it's to slaughter an old ruler, even if it's to dismantle an outer god.
They're also very adept, and they've done countless similar jobs over countless years.
Their tentacles sparkle and their excitement is transmitted to each other!
The progress of the master's awakening has been accelerated.
He was about to wake up.
Ideally, as long as you wait a few more decades, you can wait for the owner to wake up!
For them, this little time is almost equivalent to the blink of an eye, short and fast!
Just thinking that when the master wakes up, he will know everyone's loyalty.
Every monster is excited!
To be appreciated by the owner, even if it is a look, they are smiling even if they are dead!
As a result, they work harder and harder!
That's right......
Some of the tentacles flickered, questioning.
What is the owner's request this time?
Oh......
Make the traitor's soul into a delicious pure brew that the aunt can drink......
………………………………
Walking down the stairs, Ling Ping'an saw that the guest seemed to be sitting on the sofa a little reservedly.
He walked over with a smile, picked up a teacup, and made the guest a steaming cup of tea.
Then, he handed the cup of tea over and said, "Guest, please drink some tea to moisten your throat......"
Ran Bing looked at the cup of tea handed to him.
The juice is like gold, and the aroma is tangy.
A certain substance rises from the surface.
"Is this a reward for my tribute?" Ran Bing thought, picked up the teacup, and cautiously took a sip tentatively.
Sweet!
It's the first sensation of the taste buds!
This sweetness is not the sweetness of sugar, but the sweetness of the soul and genes.
That sweetness of whole body pleasure and excitement!
And then there's the incense!
When you take a bite, between your lips and teeth, there is a fresh taste.
With just one bite, Ran Bing felt as if he had been baptized.
The killings and battles of the past few days, some of the ills and effects left in her heart and soul, seemed to be gently wiped away by a rag.
Her soul and consciousness felt a pang of relief.
The soul that has been suppressed for a long time is even more relaxed.
Ran Bing couldn't help but take another sip.
Ling Ping'an looked at the guest and asked, "Guest, have you finished reading the book last time?" ”
Ran Bing listened and shook his head: "Your Excellency, that book of yours ...... It's so profound......"
"I'm a bit dull...... I haven't been able to finish reading ...... yet."
"Esoteric?" Ling Ping'an listened and became strange: "It's very simple......" he said.
"That's because I'm so stupid!" Ran Bing put down the teacup and lowered her head in shame, she felt that she had lived up to the expectations of the bookstore owner a little!
Ling Ping'an scratched his head.
"Could it be that there is some amazing esoteric story written in "Gun Girl", which has a deep connotation?" He thought.
It's just this kind of female-oriented comics, and he has less contact with it.
So, incomprehensible.
After all, men and women have different understandings of many things.
Just like he still can't figure out why the rotten girls on the micro book shout 'together' when they see two male traffic together, and he doesn't understand why the current male stars can become popular if they sell rot.
You don't need acting skills, singing skills or anything!
You don't even need Yide!
As long as the rotten sells well, there are a lot of rotten girls willing to buy it!
So......
Spiritual peace can only accept this reality.
Otherwise, what else could he do?
After thinking about it, Ling Ping'an asked, "That guest, do you want the same type of visit this time?" ”
"Hmm!" Ran Bing nodded.
She reached into her pocket and felt for the three bills that had evolved from the Origin she had worked so hard to kill and plunder over the past few days.
"I beg your pardon!" She stood up and bowed very ashamedly: "I only have so much money......"
"I really don't know if I can buy a book from you......"
Ling Ping'an looked at the banknotes that had been handed over.
Brand new banknotes!
Bright red 100 dollar bills!
Then he looked at the rich second-generation guest.
I couldn't help but sigh in my heart: "Sure enough, it's the rich second generation......"
"I guess it's the first time this guest spends money......
Countless legends about the children of those rich people appeared in Ling Ping'an's mind.
Butlers, servants, bodyguards......
Oversized mansion, in and out of the helicopter.
Shopping is always about buying, and paying the bill is someone else's business.
It is estimated that the three bills were taken by the guest from his butler or servant.
And judging by her expression, she may have no idea about the purchasing power of these money!
Thinking of this, Ling Ping'an reached out and took the money handed by the guest.
He smiled and said, "That's enough!" ”
"Do you still want the same type of book as last time?" He asked.
The other party seemed to be a little stupid and nodded.
Ling Ping'an immediately smiled and said, "Guest, please wait ......"
He was smug in his heart: "I knew that my strategy was right!" ”
See, the kindness last time was not just reciprocated – this guest brought a snake as a thank you!
Perhaps, that snake is still a very valuable breed!
Get a deal!
Three hundred dollars!
This is the biggest deal he has made in the past month or so!
Thinking of this, the young bookstore owner hummed a little song happily!
But he didn't know what kind of image he was in Ran Bing's eyes at this moment!
Ran Bing looked at it stupidly.
Her pupils reflected what she saw.
The moment she handed the three bills to the bookstore owner.
On every banknote, there is a brilliant light.
The light, like a stream of water, continued to flow towards the misty head of the bookstore owner!
It's like a siphon.
A steady stream of sucked into the misty skull.
In just one second, all the light was sucked clean.
Ran Bing clearly saw that in the head composed of the mist, under the thin lenses, the flowing fire in the eye socket became a little bigger!
"Is that what He really wants?" Ran Bing thought, "Devouring the origin of the world? ”
