Chapter 9 Night Market
The carriage went away in an instant, and the barrier set by Yan Xu was also opened, and it was not completely dark outside, it was evening, and there were many students who came out to hang out after dinner, and the small alleys were bustling with students, and it was very lively.
I called the two of them, locked the door of the herb shop, and the three of them came to the corner of the alley. It is right in front of the school gates, and during the day pedestrians rush by, never stopping for more, and like all the intersections in the world, it has no character.
But at this time, it has become a different world, more than a dozen tricycle stalls are placed on both sides of this small intersection, each stall has a lamp, and a dozen lights shine brightly here as if it were day.
There is still some distance from the intersection when I smell the fragrance, and people can't help but mouthful. Inside the night market, vendors grill skewers of meat on coals, smearing sauces from time to time, and hawkers stir-fry flour-coated chicken strips on a large black iron pot, which exudes aroma from time to time.
Further on, in a cloud of smoke, bowls of hot powder are fished out of the pot, and the shopkeeper scoops out the various ingredients from the various bowls in the stalls, and finally sprinkles some chopped green onions. Under the small table next to the stall, a large group of people were eating the noodles that had been served, making a hissing sound from time to time, but the chopsticks kept clipping, and after a while, their faces were covered with sweat and showed a satisfied smile.
The food at the dozen stalls is completely different, with barbecued meat, tofu, noodles, oysters, red and white tofu brain, and spicy hairy belly with green rape leaves. Those anxious customers, the contents of this stall have just been delivered to their mouths, and they run to the next stall to line up, and they stand there and eat very deliciously.
The three of us were dumbfounded, and wiped the saliva from the corners of our mouths:
"Aren't these things delicious, I think they eat so happily. ”
Even the usually calm and quiet eyes looked at the stall from time to time, and there was a look of longing in his eyes. Although I often go to the mortal world to taste food, but I always taste tea and drink wine in the restaurant during the day, and occasionally order a few dishes recommended by Xiao Er, which are also quite light, I have never seen such a lively and fragrant food, and the smell of it makes people appetizing, so I said:
"People are the most important appetite, if there is a favorite food, will do their best, in ancient times there was a ride of red dust concubine laughing, no one knows that it is an allusion to lychee, people live a short life, happiness is the most important, we also try. ”
"Okay, sister. As soon as he finished speaking, Jiji ran to the first barbecue stall and said to the boss, "Boss, have a few kebabs."
The kebabs were quickly served, and the lamb and vegetarian dishes were staggered and grilled, and while grilling, the owner smeared a spice said to be called cumin during the flipping process. The skewers are very large, the bite is very chewy, the meat is fragrant but not greasy, the vegetables are roasted, with a hint of spiciness, and the taste of cumin is irresistible, which is really addictive.
"It's delicious!!!!!" Jiji sighed in satisfaction.
After eating along the night market, the three of us were already very full, we had never eaten so much before, and today we really indulged.
At the bottom of the night market is a seafood stall that grills oysters, and I bought three oysters and served them with a drink called Sprite, which the store recommends. The roasted oysters are spicy and garlic-rich, and after eating these oysters and drinking a few sips of Sprite, this night market is also considered to be over, which is really memorable. It's just that my stomach is too small, and I really want to use my spiritual power to eliminate food, so that I can eat more......
After eating this night market feast and returning to the flower shop, the time has only passed an hour, and it is still early to rest at this time, and after eating so many things, you have to eat before going to sleep. I sat on a wicker chair in the courtyard, made a pot of spiritual tea, filled it in a teacup, handed it to me, and then sat down with Jingjing.
I took a slight sip of tea, then put the teacup on the table and said:
"It's been two days since we've been here, and you two still feel unwell?"
Jing Jing replied: "We used to come and go to the mortal world, there is no problem in life, but we don't deal with people less, and now I have dealt with these many people in two days, and I am a little uncomfortable, but it is not a big problem, just get used to it." ”
Jiji replied: "I think it's good, the three of us used to be in the town boundary mansion, and sometimes I feel too lonely." ”
It seems that there is nothing wrong with either of them, and I feel that life here is quite new and interesting. However, as I said quietly before, in the fifty years of my retreat, science and technology have flourished in this world, and the cultivation of true civilization has been traced, so why did I see my old friends the next day after I arrived here? Is it really a coincidence? Or is there a change in this world that I don't know about?
Is this world as calm as I have seen, or is there turbulence hidden under the calm on the surface? Is the decision to join the WTO this time due to fate or calamity, cause or effect? Only time will tell the answer.
I pinched the trick with my right hand and shot out two green balls of light to test the immortal body, and the light balls entered Jingjing and Jiji's bodies respectively, and the immortal bodies of the two of them were as usual. Putting down my right hand, I picked up the teacup on the table, and the temperature of the tea was just right, so I took a sip and said to the two of them:
"What you eat tonight is very greasy and difficult to restrain it, and if you do it occasionally, it will not hurt you both, but you must not eat too much. Eating this kind of food often, you two can't use your spiritual power to expel residual impurities, and if you accumulate for a long time, it may hinder your immortal bodies. ”
Jing Jing and Ji Ji replied at the same time:
"Okay, sister. ”
As he was talking, there was a sudden noise in the shop in front of him, like the sound of a flower pot falling to the ground, and then there was a terrible cat meow, which was sharp and piercing, and it made people feel frightened.
Jing Jing hurriedly stood up and walked to the shop in front, pushed the back door of the flower and grass shop, pressed the light switch on the wall, and looked at the place where the sound came from, only to see that there was bloodstained, and in the dim light, it looked very terrifying. Follow the blood stains on the ground to the corner of the wall, there is a cat hole behind the flower pot in the corner, it was blocked by the flower pot before and I didn't pay attention, but now the flower pot is down, and the cat hole is exposed.
Next to the flower pot is a flower stand, the upper layers are full of flower pots, the flower stand is very wide, the bottom layer is not high, forming a crack. Quietly leaned down and looked intently at the gap, and suddenly let out a short exclamation, immediately realized that something was wrong, and quickly covered his mouth with his hand.
