Originally, I wanted to taste what this scorpion tasted like, but looking at the old ghost's very indebted expression, I just wanted to eat it and didn't want to eat it. And "taste it once, and you'll fall in love for the rest of your life", why do you sound so owed?

But if you don't eat it, your stomach will be empty. Although we have "food in stock" in our bags, the three of us know in our hearts that it is the last hope, and it is best not to use it until the last resort. In case of food shortages, it's not a joke. What's more, if you find Duoduo of them, the pressure on rations will definitely be even greater.

Therefore, if there is something to eat, we will eat it. As long as it's something that we can eat and fill our stomachs, we can eat it.

I looked at the scorpion in the old ghost's hand, and then at the fireball outside the cave that had not yet been extinguished, and suddenly had an idea: to roast the scorpion and eat it.

So I snatched all the scorpions from the old ghost's hands and prepared to roast them on the fire. When the old ghost saw that I had snatched almost all of his scorpions, he hurriedly said, "Whoever kills a thousand knives, you leave me some!" Don't you eat it? ”

As he spoke, the old ghost followed. He didn't understand why I had gone from not eating to taking it all, so he came with me. Since I didn't know what I was trying to do, I didn't reach out and grab my scorpion.

When I roasted the scorpion on the fireball, he immediately understood and came over to help me roast it. I don't know if it's because I'm hungry, or because the scorpion itself is really fragrant. When the scorpions are placed on the fire, they make a "stinging, stinging" sound. Meantime. A smell of barbecue wafted into our nostrils.

Unable to resist the temptation of this aroma, Qian Cheng also slowly approached us.

When the old ghost saw Qian Cheng coming, he immediately leaned behind him "stingily" and said, "Don't you not eat?" What are you doing here now? ”

Qian Cheng said with a sad face: "I ...... I'm just going to see. ”

Listening to the old ghost and Qian Cheng talking back and forth like this, the work in the hands of me and the old ghost has not stopped. After a while, the first batch of scorpions was roasted. Suddenly, the tomb was filled with aroma and the smell of barbecue. All three of them kept swallowing their saliva while they were barbegrizing. Every now and then, the old ghost will steal one.

In fact. It's not so much about doing well in the exam, it's better to eat while taking the exam. We ate wolf-gobbling up, and Qian Cheng was in a hurry to see it on the side. I want to eat but I don't dare to eat, but I'm hungry. This roasted scorpion tastes so fragrant. Inner contradictions. For Qian Cheng. It's a torment.

I took a roasted scorpion and handed it to Qian Cheng and said, "Try it." ”

Qian Cheng was really hungry, although he was very disgusted and afraid of scorpions. But I saw that we were eating very deliciously. Now I gave him another step down, and he knew that if he didn't do anything according to the old ghost's movements, he would have no part of his own. So the scorpion I handed over to me frowned, bared its teeth, and bit it.

"Oops, I'll go! Delicious! ”

After Qian Cheng took a bite, he immediately tasted the sweetness. In one bite, he stuffed the whole scorpion into his mouth. But he didn't seem to be enjoying it, and immediately "menacingly" stretched out his "claws" to our roasted scorpions, and the three of them immediately rushed into a ball.

In this way, the three of us quickly divided up a bunch of roasted scorpions. Because they were so hungry that it took almost the blink of an eye, there were no scum left of these roasted scorpions.

After eating, the three of them were a little unsatisfied. So I asked the old ghost, "Where did you get the scorpion?" Anything else? ”

The old ghost nodded heavily and said, "Well, yes, of course, there's a scorpion nest over there!" I was afraid that you wouldn't eat it, so I got a little bit of it. If you don't think that's enough, let's go again? ”

"Yes, that's exactly what I want!" We hit it off.

was just about to leave, and then set his eyes on Qian Cheng, who was still reminiscing.

Qian Cheng obviously tasted the sweetness, and said without thinking about it: "What do you see me doing?" Let's go! ”

I looked at the old ghost for a moment, laughed and said, "Look, this is the environment that changes humanity!" No matter how much you reject, it will be properly transformed for you. ”

"Let's go, so much nonsense!" Qian Cheng saw that the old ghost was sarcastic about him, so he urged.

So, the three of us lit torches. Under the leadership of the old ghost, I headed towards the scorpion. As soon as I took two steps, a question arose in my mind: why didn't so many scorpions come and attack us while we were sleeping? So I put my thoughts out.

When the old ghost heard this, he snorted coldly and said, "Do you think these scorpions have 'discovered their conscience'?" It's the ghost me! ”

"Is that you?" I asked in amazement.

"Of course!" The old ghost said as if inviting merit, "You slept like a dead pig, if it weren't for the ghost master and me, I'm afraid you would have been buried in the scorpion pile!" ”

Qian Cheng and I looked at the old ghost with curious eyes, and the old ghost took out a small bottle of something from the waistband of his pants. I took it and looked at it, but I didn't understand it, it was all Arabic letters. I can't read it, but Qian Cheng understands Arabic. So I handed it to Qian Cheng, who looked at it and said, "Insect repellent? ”

The old ghost didn't speak, just nodded heavily at us.

I couldn't help but praise the old ghost: "Okay, Captain Shi, I can't see that you are quite careful." Can you think of this? ”

The old ghost proudly said, "That's it! And don't look at who it is. You think I'm like you, living an unknown life. ”

"What do you mean by 'unclear'? Say, where did this thing come from? I asked.

It occurred to me that the old ghost could have such a thing. Egyptian mummies have moisture-proof and insect-proof measures and potions, he can't be looking for scorpions, from which "big zongzi" is smooth, right? So I immediately asked "sternly".

When the old ghost heard this, he was reluctant and said, "Damn, I saved your life, and instead of thanking me, he came to torture me." ”

I didn't want to listen to the old ghost nagging anymore, so I said, "it!" ”

"It was given to me by those two uncles when I came in! You don't remember? The old ghost said.

Hearing the old ghost say this, I remembered that before entering the cave, the two kind-hearted uncles gave us a bag of things. The old ghost wanted to take it apart at that time, but Uncle Ah San didn't let him. It turned out to be an insect repellent! It's not a precious thing, but it's something we need the most.

Although these things are not valuable, they are more important than money at a critical moment. Because they can save our lives!

After looking away for a while, I asked the old ghost impatiently, "Have you arrived?" (To be continued......)
