Chapter 60: Eat Raw
It may be due to overexertion, or it may be due to not eating, and the hunger is so low that blood sugar is low. In short, I felt like I was in a vague, groggy feeling all the time. Faintly, I felt that someone's shadow was flickering and the voice was noisy. It was as if I was not in a pyramid, but sleeping in a bustling vegetable market.
Hearing this sound, I tried hard to open my eyes. But my eyelids are like a thousand pounds, and no matter how much I lift them, I just can't lift them. In a daze, I fell asleep again......
In my sleep, I dreamed of a lot of happy and sad faces; saw Wu Lisha's slightly naughty expression; saw the cynical look of the old ghost; I also saw the wrinkled faces of my parents, and their eyes were full of anxiety and expectation......
I don't know how long it took me to wake up. Not woken up by others, but tormented by the feeling of hunger. Suddenly, I was attracted by the smell of cigarettes in my nose.
When I woke up, I saw Qian Cheng sitting there smoking a cigarette without saying a word, and I suddenly fell asleep. Watching him take a big gulp of cigarettes, my mouth was also a burst of raw water, and I knew that I was addicted to smoking. As soon as I was about to stretch out my hand to ask Qian Chengyao, I saw him stretch out his hand, hand me one, and light a fire for me.
{3w. It's a blessing to have a cigarette in a place where no one has eyes. I took a deep puff of my cigarette, letting the strong smell of smoke tar irritate my almost numb lungs. Suddenly, there was a feeling of being refreshed. I instantly felt refreshed and conscious.
I didn't understand until this moment. Happiness is such a simple thing. It's no wonder that when I was in college, the boys in my class had to save their pocket money to buy cigarettes even if they didn't eat. I didn't smoke at that time and didn't understand their behavior very much. However, since this happened to Toto, I have smoked more. Gradually, it became a habit that I couldn't quit.
It was only at this moment that I realized that cigarettes are an unforgettable spiritual sustenance.
After taking a puff of this somewhat special cigarette, I asked Qian Cheng, "Where did the cigarette come from?" ”
Qian Cheng smiled, shook it and said, "When you're outside." I bought it when I was in the market in Cairo. At that time. I always thought of the scene in the movie where cigarettes were used instead of incense, and I guess we would be able to use them, so I bought two packs. What happened afterwards was something I almost forgot. When I think about it. I didn't want to take it out and smoke it. ”
"Damn. Can't you just think of something good? Crow's beak! I said.
Qian Cheng said: "I didn't think about it that much. ”
Talking to Qian Cheng. After three or two puffs, I finished a cigarette before I remembered the old ghost. I thought to myself, how did this grandson change his habits? Why is it so quiet? Looking around, I realized that he wasn't around. I hurriedly asked Qian Cheng: "What about the old ghost?" ”
Qian Cheng said: "It's time to find something to eat." ”
Qian Cheng's tone was surprisingly flat, and he didn't seem to care much about this qiē. Looking at his eyes, it was like seeing through a qiē. It seems that he takes life and death very lightly at all, and it seems that there is nothing that can make him feel afraid.
I asked Qian Cheng: "Aren't you worried about our current situation at all?" ”
"What's the use of worrying?" Qian Cheng smiled and said, "Buddy, let's be honest with you, I didn't think I would be able to go back this time." To tell you the truth, I have been divorced since I was divorced, and I have taken this qiē lightly. Sometimes I even think that if I die here, it would be a good choice. After all, it is also something to brag about being buried with the Egyptian pharaohs. In the local dialect, it is the green smoke rising from the ancestral grave - high incense has been burned. ”
"Hehe, I don't want to smoke it." I say.
While we were talking, the old ghost came out of nowhere. He was still holding something in his hand, and looking at his expression, he was very happy. To be exact, it's like the expression on a farmer's face during the harvest season.
Before I could ask, I heard the old ghost holding the pile of things and saying to me and Qian Cheng: "Look, what I found!" ”
Qian Cheng and I were two people at the same time, and hurriedly stretched out our heads to look at the things in the old ghost's hands. This look startled us. Qian Cheng was even so frightened that he took a step back and hurriedly asked the old ghost to take the things away.
It turned out that the old ghost was holding a bunch of scorpions in his hand!
Almost all of the scorpions were alive, only one or two were dead, and the others were still moving. Originally, in the desert here, it was a common thing to see scorpions. But the only thing I don't understand is why these scorpions are brown and not big. Instead of the big black ones that are common in the desert?
The old ghost saw that Qian Cheng was almost scared away, so he felt ridiculous, and said, "Look at your little talent!" A dignified seven-foot man would be afraid of this kind of thing. Is! ”
After speaking, the old ghost deliberately leaned his hand towards Qian Cheng, wanting to tease him.
I'm very curious about how these scorpions don't sting old ghosts. If you look closely, it turns out that half of the tail hooks and turtles of those scorpions have been broken off by the old ghost. And, judging by their size, these are the cubs of some scorpions.
Qian Cheng hurriedly shook his arm and waved his hand and said, "Get up!" Get out of the way! A dignified seven-foot man, can't he be afraid of scorpions? Who doesn't have something to be afraid of? ”
I saw that Qian Cheng was really apprehensive about this thing, and the old ghost looked gloating again, so he hurriedly stopped him and said, "Okay, don't make trouble." When has it been, it's not serious yet. Tell me, what are you doing with these scorpions? ”
"Stupid, of course it's eating!" The old ghost said as a matter of course.
"Eat?" I was taken aback by the old ghost's claim.
When the old ghost saw my surprised expression, he looked at me with some disdain and said, "What's all the fuss about?" Scorpions can be eaten! Don't sue me, you don't know yet. ”
"I only know that it can be soaked in wine or medicine, and if you eat it, I really haven't seen it." I say.
The old ghost snorted coldly and said to me and Qian Cheng: "Brother, take a look! See how I eat it, and you'll have to do it yourself later. ”
After saying that, the old ghost picked up a scorpion in his hand that was still showing its teeth and claws and put it in his mouth. Then he moved his cheeks and chewed "chirp, chirp", as if he were chewing something delicious......
His action really made Qian Cheng and I feel frightened and gasped! Eat scorpions raw, this ...... This is the way a savage eats, which is a normal human being?
The old ghost chewed and handed me one, saying, "Come, taste it!" Taste it once and you'll love it for a lifetime! (To be continued......)
