Chapter 16 Chickens Grow Out of Soil??
He snatched the mop in my hand with one hand, a pair of sharp black eyes hidden under the heroic eyebrows, and the thin lips slightly outlined a hint of playfulness, angular, as if he was always smiling, adding a bit of charm to his whole appearance.
"Who told you to knock on my door in the middle of the night without sleeping?"
He rarely goes downstairs, and I basically serve him three meals a day. I sometimes wonder how he lived when I didn't come before.
"Who told you not to turn off the lights in the middle of the night, don't you know that electricity is very expensive?"
Su Luohan, that's right, he is like this after a few days of getting along, no matter what comes out of his mouth, he can always make you sound reasonable, and you can't refute it.
"Well, I'll close it next time! Is there anything else you can do with the landlord? ”
He stared straight at me and asked a particularly nonsensical question: "Are you an adult?" ”
"What?" What does it matter to him when I am an adult or an adult?
"I said, are you eighteen years old?"
"Nope."
"How much longer?" He tilted his head, stunned for a moment.
"What are you asking for?" Speaking of eighteen years old and adulthood, there are about a year and a half left in the calculation of the days.
"Shouldn't I, as your landlord, know about my guests?"
"Oh, it's early! Landlord, what else do you have to say, I'm going to sleep! ”
"Remember to turn off the lights when you go to bed, and besides, tomorrow I want to eat something different. At least let me see the meat! He walked to the door, paused abruptly, and said something nonchalantly.
Penny pincher! I actually wanted to tell him the truth, but I was afraid that he would blow up my hair and I didn't dare to say it.
The city is not as good as the countryside, and they don't give me money to buy vegetables, so where can I find meat for him to eat...... Go out here and there for a walk, and be very careful every day like a thief, running to steal vegetables from one of the few small gardens of others!!
So the things he eats are basically the vegetables I stole from me, and now he wants to eat meat because he wants me to steal chickens and ducks......?
Alone in a foreign land, there is not a day that I spend not in fear. I never touched the dowry bags that Daddy gave me, because the last thought that Daddy and Auntie left me was that I couldn't squander them.
During this time, I asked people around about Dongcheng Foreign Country Street.
It is said that Stranger Street is a very special street about 400 kilometers away from Dongcheng, where the light is almost dim to the point that it is half-white and half-black and half-black and not black both day and night, in short, whether you go during the day or at night, you may need to bring your own lighting tools.
At the beginning and end of each month, it seems to rise overnight into an ancient and mysterious alley, and then mysteriously disappear. Like a mystery, no one knows why. There are many people who are deeply puzzled by this matter and want to explore the mysteries, but in the end they are in vain.
Also, the people who enter, as long as the purpose is not pure, will frequently happen strange things, either disappear for no reason or fall directly into the river for no reason, and when they are found the next day, they are already a dead body that has been blistered.
Even if a reporter went to report, there would be accidents one after another, and a terrifying haze would hang over the entire foreign street. This also indirectly makes "Foreign Country Street" a veritable ghost alley!
Everyone in Dongcheng has developed a habit of staying at home at the beginning and end of each month, because for a while, people will change their faces almost as soon as they mention the foreign street, and over time, few people dare to approach there.
That's the horror I asked. There is also a strange thing, that is, the old boat family told me before that there is a hidden soul pavilion in this foreign street called -------- Tilt I, waiting for one person.
It is said that there are warlocks who can know the lives of all the living people in the world, whether it is a past life or a present life, whether it is marriage or illness, etc., they can answer you one by one, but the premise is that you have to exchange things with them for paper deeds.
But they rarely want concrete things, only those abstract pronouns. For example, love, such as happiness, this kind of abstract thing that has no physical characteristics, cannot be seen or touched.
Because the Strange Street place is so weird, few people try it.
When I first arrived in the city, it was just after the third day of the month, so I still had to wait another 28 days. I can go to that weird and inexplicable foreign street to explore the truth for myself, after all, hearing is false, seeing is believing.
In the past 28 days, in Dongcheng, a young city like a flower, I have no father, no mother, and no elders and relatives, and food, clothing, housing and transportation have become a particularly urgent problem to be solved.
As long as you go on the street, you have to be literate wherever you go, and high-paying jobs require a certain degree and theoretical knowledge, and I didn't study at the age of nine, so I can only do the kind of relatively low-level part-time jobs, sometimes desperately working four jobs a day.
When I got home, as usual, I rummaged through the key in my bag, but I didn't know that the key was inserted into the keyhole and opened without twisting!
What's the situation? Got a thief?
I clicked on the power switch on the wall, and the room instantly lit up, Su Luohan leaned back on the chair like an uncle, lowered his eyes, which made me angry: "You're going to scare people to death!" ”
He pursed his lips disdainfully, and said something that made his teeth itch immediately when he heard it: "Hurry up and cook, I'm hungry." ”
"Dinner wasn't made for you, just put it in the pot, you just want to be hot......" I put down the bag on my shoulder, ran to the kitchen to uncover the pot, and saw that the food was all left in the pot, and I didn't pass it at all. Oh my God, do you want to be so lazy?
"Where did you get this dish from?" He suddenly stood behind me and asked me coldly.
I looked away for a while at the ceiling: "Of course it grows out of the soil, where else can it come ......from?"
"Do chickens also grow out of the soil? Do ducks also grow out of the soil? Do fish also grow out of the soil? Well? ”
Of course, they can't grow out of the soil, how much effort did I waste to get a chicken, my God, not to mention ducks, and fish, I was early in the morning before dawn and ran to the farm to wait for the rabbits, and when I saw the chickens and ducklings that were stocked in the farm, I took advantage of the fact that the owner of the farm was not feeding it, and I was dizzy, so I got it, and he was good to stand and talk without backache!
"So what exactly are you trying to say?"
"Stealing two chickens, three ducks, and five fish, am I right?"
"What is it called stealing, my God, isn't that what you said you want to eat meat! No, you, how do you know? I swallowed, and my heart chuckled,
"I found out Yu Mengfan, you are really good, if you steal ten chickens, ten ducks, ten fish, ten days is one hundred each, how many do you have to steal in three hundred and sixty-five days a year?"
Three hundred and sixty-five days, I reckoned that there were one hundred for ten days, and one thousand for one hundred days, and three thousand for each of the three hundred days, which is nine thousand, plus the remaining sixty-five days...... Oh, my God......
"Did you figure it out?"
"No, don't make any noise, the remaining sixty-five days are six ......"
"Enough! Pigs are not as stupid as you, next time, pack up your things and get out, I don't welcome people with unclean hands and feet here! ”
"Who has unclean hands and feet? Isn't that you, yelling for meat, and not giving me money to buy vegetables, where can I find meat for you? Rats meat, do you eat it? ”
