Chapter 1 Dishes that shine

Next Chapter

Li Ang sat in a daze on his chair and looked at the room, which was very small, about ten square meters in size.

The things in the room were a shabby table, a bed, a pot, a barrel.

There is also a skeleton of bones left by an unknown animal on the ground, which looks like the shape of a mouse but is the size of a dog.

Rubbing his face, he recalled the remaining memories in his mind, he had died suddenly of a heart attack and had come to a place similar to the European Middle Ages.

The bone frame on the ground was left by a monster, and the original owner of this body was also named Leon, who was attacked by a bone frame that came out of nowhere last night, and they both died together.

"It's so dark! Is it cloudy?" Leon looked up at a small window above in the shimmering light.

He got up and took two steps, and suddenly fell to the ground, remembering that he had only eaten one meal from yesterday until now.

"I'm so hungry!" he felt like he was going to die.

I got up with difficulty, walked to the window, and looked around, all I saw outside were shoes and legs, and it turned out that this room was in the basement.

"Leon, there are ten days to pay the rent, and if you can't get 10 copper coins, don't blame me for kicking you out." A loud woman shouted as she walked to the door of the basement.

"I see!" Leon said.

"It turns out that this house is rented, so poor. Li Ang touched all the pockets on his body, but there was not a single copper coin.

"I'm so poor!

His gaze rested on the bone rack on the ground, which seemed to be okay to make soup, and bone broth was better than drinking water.

Leon climbed to the edge of the bone rack and picked up the bones and put them in the pot, where there were still some shredded meat on the bones, which looked fresh.

Put the pot on the stove, lean on the stove and pour the water from the wooden bucket into the pot, turn on the gas on the stove, and light the fire.

Hands pressed the ground to the side of the wall and sat down, the temperature on the stove went up, not as cold as before.

He didn't know what kind of animal this bone frame belonged to, whether there were bacteria or not, and would he be poisoned if he ate it?

He just wants to eat something, and if he dies, he will die, and it would be better if he could wear it back, this kind of life is really not a human life.

The water in the pot gradually boiled, and the water splashed and a little oil splashed on it.

Suddenly he smelled the scent, a heartfelt longing that could not be described in words.

After waiting for a while, the bones in the pot actually glowed, and after the glimmer, the bones disappeared and turned into a pot of milky white soup.

"Is this a dish that glows?"

Li Ang turned off the gas, picked up the pot and put it on the ground, and when the soup was cold, he drank it.

The smell of bone marrow and meat filled his mouth and stomach, and he felt full after drinking a pot of soup.

He could still walk a few steps to his feet, and he felt full of strength.

Although he didn't know how those bones were cooked, these bones went into his stomach, and the nutrition was quite high.

When he was full and had enough to think about how to earn copper coins, he pushed open the door and walked up the steps to the ground.

The landlady glanced at him and was busy with her work again.

The house on the ground floor is two-storey, the landlord lives on the first floor, and the second floor and basement are rented out.

Leon walked out into the street, looking for a job to find as he walked.

"Boss, do you want a buddy?" said Leon to a shopkeeper.

"Recruiting apprentices, not including food and housing. The boss looked at him and said.

......

It was difficult to find a job, and there were not many shops on the street, so Li Ang looked for many homes but did not find a job.

"Hey, boy, take out your money!" said a man with a knife who suddenly appeared in front of him.

"Oh no!" Leon looked up to find himself unconsciously on a remote street.

Looking back, there was also a person behind him with a stick.

"Hurry up and get the money out, don't think about running. The man in front of Li Ang said a few steps closer.

Leon felt a force in his body, and he felt that he could kill this person with one punch.

"What? what did you say?" Leon pretended not to hear clearly, walking like a man with a knife.

The man with the knife said fiercely, "I call you ......"

Leon punched him in the chest, knocking him away in one fell swoop.

"It's true!" Leon said in surprise as he looked at his arm.

"Bang!" a stick struck him on the head.

"I forgot there's another person!" Leon turned around, touched his head, and touched his hand with blood.

"It's a misunderstanding! Misunderstanding!" said the man with the stick, seeing his accomplice being punched away, and still not getting up, said with a look of horror.

"Okay! I'll ask you something, and I'll let you go. Leon said.

"Is it true? ”

"Where can I find a job?"

“......”

Leon asked what he knew, and knocked the bandit away with a punch.

"Did I say I'm going to let you go? idiot. Leon said.

He crouched down and felt for the contents of both of them, a total of eight copper coins.

No wonder the robbery turned out to be two poor ghosts.

He walked out of the alley, walked back, passed by a clinic and spent five copper coins to bandage his head.

Now his body no longer has the strange power just now, but it has also returned to normal, like a normal person, the pot of bone broth is very replenishing.

When he got home, the wound on his head had already scabbed, and he was a little surprised to recover so quickly.

He realized that there were some changes in his body, but for the better.

"Last night was the night of the full moon, and that bone frame monster was actually very weak, it was an infected bone frame. Leon sat in his chair and thought to himself.

On the night of the full moon, there are not only monsters, but also crimson mist, and some things will be infected, which the original owner has not seen, but has only heard of.

There are church watchmen in the city at night, and this situation is usually dealt with, and Leon is just an unlucky bastard.

There's a reason why rents are cheap here, and the glory of the church only shines on the neighborhoods of the wealthy.

He eliminated a few unreliable jobs and left three good jobs.

One is a farmer outside the city who recruits laborers and gives 50 copper coins a month for farming on the farm.

Outside the city, it is a place that the night watchman can't take care of, and if something happens, he only goes after the fact, and there may not be a chance to enter the city in the future.

The second job was a steel mill worker, responsible for carrying molten iron, giving 200 copper coins a month.

Although there is a lot of money, it is dangerous, and the work is to carry the molten iron, and once the molten iron bursts onto the body, it is a serious injury.

The third job is to carry things at the docks, giving three copper coins a day.

After thinking about it, he felt that the third job was more suitable for him, and now he has a lot of strength, and it is more suitable to do portering.

You can also settle on a daily basis, and you can earn back the rent by working for four days.
