Chapter 21: The Dwarves Descend
The old woman straightened her waist, her body made a "clucking" sound, and from time to time one or two black cockroaches crawled out of the ear hole. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
But He Wei didn't notice it, his eyes only observed her kind face and harmonious eyes, and felt that she was just a kind-hearted grandmother.
He said with a smile on his face: "Grandma, what are you doing here alone at such a late hour?" ”
The old woman also showed an amiable smile on her face, and stepped forward and said, "Turtle grandson, it's not that I see that your little baby is outside, cold and hungry, and wants you to go into the house to roast the fire. ”
"I see, ouch, it just scared me, I thought you were a ghost." Hearing this, He Wei finally breathed a sigh of relief and got up from the ground, his expression was not as nervous as before.
The old woman grinned and told him that it was very cold outside, very cold, and that he should not wander outside alone, that he would encounter some unclean things, and that if he was unlucky, he would meet cockroaches that ate people, and that he must be doubly careful, and that it was best to go back to the house with her.
"But the lonely grave before......" He Wei stammered a little, thinking about the previous incident in his heart.
"It's not a lonely grave, you must be dazzled, kid, it's getting late, go back to the house and rest."
He Wei nodded hurriedly after hearing this, and saw that the old woman's tone was very warm, and she didn't look like a bad person, so he followed her back to the lonely grave before.
When I came to the lonely grave, it was indeed no longer a lonely grave in front of me, the cyan tiles and red eaves had become a luxurious inn, which exuded a hot atmosphere.
When he looked back at the old woman in front of him, he found that the old woman had disappeared behind him at some point, and it was pitch black in front of him, and there was no one in sight.
At this time, it seemed that a voice of vicissitudes came from the air: "Turtle Sun." Come in, it's too cold outside. ”
This voice sounded familiar, it seemed to be the voice of an old woman, and she kept persuading He Wei to enter the inn.
He Wei suddenly felt a little evil, the old woman said that she would disappear if she didn't see it, could it be that she really encountered something unclean?
But now he was so hungry that his eyes were dizzy, and he couldn't exert any strength in his body, and he might really be unconscious after taking two steps, so he finally chose to break into this inn head-on.
The candlelight flickered in the inn, rows of red candles burned on the dining table, emitting a faint light, there was no one inside, and the whole room was eerily quiet.
At this time, a middle-aged man came down the stairs, wearing a coat, a little tattered, like a poor scholar, his face was as pale as a piece of paper, and he walked towards him with a smile on his face.
"This guest officer, please inside, there are all kinds of delicacies in this store, and there are good rooms, do you want to be a tip or a hotel?"
He Wei glanced at the man in front of him, and felt that his body was a little cold and not normal, so he said casually, "Oh...... Eat first and then stay at the hotel. ”
The middle-aged man smiled unnaturally and said, "Okay, please come inside the guest officer." Then he took out a recipe and gave it to He Wei, asking him to order whatever he wanted, and he could have any dish.
He Wei took the recipe and glanced at it, the words on the recipe were a little blurry, the font was still a little crooked, and some could not be seen clearly, so he asked, "Is there a backup recipe?" The words on this recipe are too vague to read clearly. ”
"Guest officer, I'm really sorry, our restaurant has a recipe, if you want to eat something, just say hello, as long as you can say it, I will do it, and I will definitely satisfy you."
When He Wei hears it, he will do anything? It's so powerful, then you're welcome, and casually said a few of the dishes in the Hanman banquet: "Bergamot golden rolls, eight treasure pheasants, colorful beef tenderloin, auspicious dragon double flying, golden silk sparrow, can you do any of these?" ”
"Haole, guest officer, wait a while, the dish will be served in a while, and I'll help you make a pot of tea." The middle-aged man showed a wicked smile and staggered away.
After a cup of tea, the middle-aged man walked out of the kitchen with a plate in his hand and put the dish in front of He Wei.
"So fast? How long has it been? Isn't it just that time spent stewing a chicken? He Wei felt a little strange in his heart, even if it was a scrambled egg fried rice, it didn't get good so quickly, as if it had been prepared in advance and taken out.
"Guest officer, please use it!" The middle-aged man didn't answer his question directly, but left with a casual remark.
When he opened the lid of the plate, he was surprised to find that it was not a dish he had ordered himself, but a plate of hot egg fried rice, and the oil on it was very yellow, and it was estimated that the oil was spilled before it was fully cooked.
He Wei angrily scolded at the young man: "What the hell is this, how is it egg fried rice, is this the dish I ordered?" It's wrong. ”
The middle-aged man stopped, slowly turned his head, and said in a low voice: "Guest officer, it's not wrong, the dishes you ordered are all in it, you can just take a bite." ”
As soon as the man finished speaking, he turned around immediately, no matter how he screamed, he couldn't stop it, completely ignoring the words that came out of He Wei's mouth.
He Wei looked at the egg fried rice in front of him again, the golden yellow was a little terrifying, and after a closer look, it was not an egg at all in the rice, but solidified butter, which continued to seep out from the rice.
He put his face up and smelled it, it was fragrant, it was the smell of fried rice, but he didn't know what kind of oil the yellow one was, why it was so bright, it was already reflective.
But he was already so hungry that his eyes were dizzy, and he didn't think much about it, and he began to gobble it up, and when he was halfway through eating, he found that the rice was beating in his mouth, strange? How does rice jump?
He subconsciously spit out the rice from his mouth, only to find that the one he had just eaten in his mouth was not rice at all, but a half-live cockroach with long fluffy hair and movement, which instantly frightened He Wei so much that he rolled round from the stool to the floor in an instant.
A breeze blew outside the door, blowing out several red candles on the table, and the middle-aged man with a pale face didn't know when, his whole stiff body stood straight behind He Wei.
He stretched out his terrible palm, grabbed He Wei's neck, opened his purple-red lips, and revealed two sharp teeth, facing him and biting hard.
He Wei's eyes were black, and he fell unconscious on the ground, foaming at the mouth of the vomit, his whole body was convulsed, and the red candles on the table were blown out one by one with the breeze.
At this time, an old woman who had vicissitudes of life fell from the sky and said to the middle-aged man: "Wrong person, he is not a dwarf, he is an ordinary boy." ”
When the middle-aged man heard this, he reacted immediately, looked at his face, and was indeed not a dwarf, so he immediately got up and stood up, and said to the old woman: "Hey, why not, the dwarf is still not coming." ”
"Come, of course it will come, just wait a while."
After a while, a dwarf really came in outside the door, walked into the inn step by step, wearing the dazzling blue robe, and shouted loudly: "Little Er, five catties of beef, a pot of wine." ”
The middle-aged man immediately greeted him and said with a smile: "Okay, please wait a while." ”
After a while, the middle-aged man held a plate in his hand and sent it to the dwarf, "Guest officer, your meal has been prepared, please use it slowly." ”
The dwarf opened the lid of the plate, and immediately became angry, and said angrily: "Shopkeeper, why is it egg fried rice?" I clearly ordered five catties of beef and a pot of wine. ”
At this time, the dwarf didn't react, and the middle-aged man immediately pounced on him and shouted: "I'll you, I'm going to kill you today." ”
The dwarf immediately raised his head and waved, and another breeze blew, and blood splashed, and the middle-aged man probably didn't know how he died, and his whole body was already split in two.
The dwarf's lips opened wide, and countless cockroaches crawled out of their tongues and spread all over the ground.
The cockroaches quickly devoured the middle-aged man who fell to the ground, and in an instant, the old woman also appeared in front of the dwarf's eyes, holding a cane in her hand, and with a light stroke on the ground, a stone slab flew over the dwarf's head.
I saw the dwarf stretch out his little finger, gently hit the stone slab, and bounced back on the old woman's chest, "Bang! With a bang, the old woman fell to the ground, spat blood from her mouth, and disappeared to the ground.
Step by step, the dwarf walked forward, his eyes swept in all directions, and he saw He Wei's body in a corner, but he didn't know who the boy was.
At that moment, however, another girl rushed in from outside the door, and seeing that the dwarf had not said a word, she picked up a sharp stone from the ground and slammed it into his forehead.
The stone was like a bullet that flew into the dwarf's heart in the blink of an eye, and the girl cursed loudly: "Necromancy, your time of death has come, and I will die with you." ”
The dwarf jumped up from the ground with a side flip, drew his sword, and threw it at the girl's head, and at the same time, the girl picked up another stone from the ground and smashed it, and the stone and the blade collided together, creating a thick burst of sparks.
Eventually, the stone shattered, and the blade of the sword pierced through the stone and plunged straight into the girl's neck, and she fell to the ground, dying.
This seemingly ruthless and cold-blooded dwarf killed three people in a row in just a few minutes, and every time he killed someone, it was just a short moment, and he was already killed without giving a chance to make a second move.
At this time, a handsome and dashing young man rushed in at the door, this young man was Licorice, and he saw that the dwarf's hands were stained with blood, and the blood soaked his blue robe.
Licorice said to him unhurriedly: "Demon, where to run, my soul out of body this time is specially to deal with you, today you can become enlightened." ”
"Hahaha...... Who do you think you are, just a little ghost, and you still want to fight me, do you know my prestige? The dwarf said word by word in a domineering tone.
"I don't care who you are, anyway, I'm here this time specifically to deal with you, you give me enlightenment."
Then, the two of them fought with each other, and within a round, Licorice fell to the ground with a sword, and then was stabbed by the dwarf three or four times in a row, and was dying, and his body lay motionless and stiff on the ground.
Finally, the dwarf put away the sword in his hand, took a steady step, and sat down on the stool again, like a chivalrous man who had killed several bandits in a row, and continued to return to his seat and drink soju without changing his face and heartbeat.
At this time, He Wei slowly got up from the ground, looked at the ceiling with his eyes in a daze vision, raised his head and looked ahead, there were three corpses lying on the ground, one licorice, one autumn, and a middle-aged man, all vomiting blood in his mouth, and he fell stiffly to the ground and his body did not move.
Looking at the seat in front of him, there sat a bloodstained dwarf in a battle robe, who was so familiar that he recognized who this person was at a glance.
The dwarf had apparently sensed the movement behind him, and immediately turned his head to look behind him, and found that He Wei had risen from the ground.
The dwarf immediately stood up from his seat, his body flew into the air, flashed in front of He Wei in an instant, smiled slightly, and said, "I know you, thank you for saving me." ”
He Wei didn't react at once, he didn't know what the dwarf in front of him was talking about, although he knew this dwarf, but he was not familiar with it, he had only met a few times, and he knew in his heart how bad this dwarf was, he was completely a big villain.
Then the dwarf said to him, "You know what? If it weren't for you that day, I wouldn't have survived at all, and to show my gratitude to you, I can promise you one thing, anything can be done, I can do it. ”
"What are you talking about? I can't understand a word. He Wei touched the back of his head, not knowing what he was talking about, and looked at him with an incredible look.
"I mean, I can do one thing for you, for example, if you want to be rich, or if you want to be smart, I can do it, but only one thing."
He Wei understood this sentence, although he didn't know why the dwarf would say such a thing, and he didn't know where he helped him, but it turned out to be a good thing, He Wei didn't think much about it, and agreed casually.
"Okay, I'm not sure what's going on, but I still want to ask you for something, you help me revive the summer, what do you think?"
He Wei said, still looking at him with expectant eyes, although he didn't know what was going on, but if someone helped him, how could he refuse.
