Chapter 48: Meat

In the dim night, several carriages were moving on the deserted road.

"Master, it's not far ahead, it seems to be inhabited, do you want to spend the night?"

"It's getting late, and I can't move, so I have to do it."

On the carriage, there was a tired voice, and he replied helplessly.

Not long after walking forward, I saw a building, standing in front of it, with a piece of cloth hanging high at the door, and two big characters written on it: inn.

"Brother Gu, it's so late, even if you rush to the city, you can't get in, why don't you stay here for one night?"

"That's a great deal."

On the carriage, a trace of exhaustion flashed in Gu Qianqiu's eyes, and the bumps in the carriage exceeded his imagination, especially when he needed to walk a long way.

It is normal for the official roads in the wild to fall into disrepair, and what is even worse is that there are still many places where there are no roads at all, and they are all paths that some people have walked out.

Because of this, even as a monk, he felt unbearable, starting from Linshan County, until now, three days have passed, and the general has walked less than two hundred miles.

Of course, this is also the reason why Zhuang Weiming dragged his family with him, how can the female dependents endure the hardships of a long journey?

As soon as he got out of the car, Gu Qianqiu's eyes were condensed, and he muttered to himself: "Strange, how does this inn give me a feeling of being out of place with my surroundings?" ”

What's even more strange is that there are two big red lanterns hanging at the door of this inn without a name, which looks quite weird and demonic.

"Brother Gu, what's the matter?"

Zhuang Weiming, who was walking in front and was about to go in, looked back, but found that Gu Qianqiu was looking at the inn stunned, and couldn't help but ask suspiciously.

"It's nothing, maybe I'm overthinking."

Although this inn in the wilderness gave him a strange feeling, he couldn't be sure, because here, not far from the county seat, it was only ten miles away.

When Zhuang Weiming and the others heard this, they breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, greeted them, and turned around and entered the inn.

"There's a guest coming... Ladies and gentlemen, please ...... inside."

As soon as he stepped into the inn, Xiao Er arrived when he heard the sound and greeted him warmly.

Behind him, Gu Qianqiu quietly observed the circle, and finally set his eyes on the shopkeeper, and suddenly, an even more strange feeling came to his heart.

Driven by this strange premonition, he subconsciously used his mana to his eyes, wanting to observe the inn in front of him.

For a moment, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, because under the observation of his pseudo-magic eye, everything was normal, as if there was something wrong with his senses.

frowned, I wanted to call them, just rest outside for the night, don't go in, but it seems to be a little late now?

Because Zhuang Weiming and them, they couldn't wait to enter the inn at this time, even if they were still outside the door, they could hear the sound of them going to the room and preparing hot water.

"Well, let's go in and have a look."

Thinking of the ten years of mana in his body at this time, his heart couldn't help but move, and under the little puzzled eyes of the shopkeeper, Shi Shiran walked in.

"Guest, what do you need? Would you like to try our signature dish? ”

As soon as he stepped into the inn, the shopkeeper was busy, and asked softly while tidying up the table.

Before he could speak, Zhang Qingyun couldn't help but say: "Serve all your signature dishes here, and make them delicious, but don't think about fooling me and others." ”

The shopkeeper looked at the long knife on his waist, and said with a smile on his face: "Guest officer, what we are doing here is a long-term business, and we have always been innocent, but we don't dare to do that thing that destroys our reputation." ”

"Why don't you go soon?"

Zhang Qingyun's eyes widened, and suddenly a sinister aura overflowed from his eyes, so frightened that the shopkeeper hurriedly fled and left.

"Immortal Master, is there a problem with this inn?"

After the shopkeeper left, Zhang Qingyun leaned over slightly and asked softly, he is not a stupid person, since Gu Qianqiu entered the inn.

The behavior is very abnormal, not only do you not say a word, but even the actions are very few, and most of your attention is observing the entire inn.

Since he hadn't found anything yet, let alone knew what the situation was at this time, Gu Qianqiu didn't want to say more, so as not to cause some unnecessary trouble.

He shook his head very simply, but other than that, there was no movement.

As for his shaking of his head, how Zhang Qingyun answered, it was none of his business.

"Guest officer, the dish is here, this is the signature of our inn, braised pork, and please taste it slowly."

Soon, the shopkeeper began to deliver dishes, and for each dish he delivered, he enthusiastically introduced the name of the dish and the main ingredients.

"Xiao Er, why don't you see your shopkeeper? Is this inn just the two of you? ”

As the last dish was served, the shopkeeper wanted to leave, but at this moment, Gu Qianqiu, who had been silent, suddenly asked.

The figure of the shopkeeper leaving, he couldn't help but pause, and then turned his head with a smile on his face and replied: "The guest officer is right, because the store has a small profit, you can't afford to invite others."

As for the shopkeeper of my house, because of his strange appearance and too good, he generally does not meet guests, and I ask you to forgive me, if there is something to call a small one. ”

"Got it, go get busy."

sent away the shopkeeper, and under the surprised eyes of everyone, he didn't eat or eat, just watched quietly, and the table was full of wine and delicacies.

Zhuang Weiming saw the table full of good dishes, and couldn't help it, picked up chopsticks, picked up a piece of braised pork, and greeted in his mouth.

"It's been a tiring day, everyone should quickly fill their stomachs, rest as soon as possible, and have to hurry tomorrow morning."

Gu Qianqiu shook his head: "Lord Zhuang, what a big husband, even this meat can be eaten." ”

Looking at the meat on the chopsticks, Zhuang Weiming was full of doubts: "What does Brother Gu mean by this?" Can't you eat this meat? ”

Sniffing, he couldn't help but continue: "There is no problem with this meat, it is charred on the outside and tender on the inside, crispy and delicious, I have to say that this shopkeeper has made a good dish." ”

For some reason, this meat seemed to have some kind of magical power, and just a simple smell of it made him feel a desire to swallow it in one gulp.

And this desire, as time goes by, becomes stronger and stronger, just three breaths, Zhuang Weiming looked at the meat in his hand, and his eyes were different.

His eyes glowed green, his mouth spit frantically derived, and his throat couldn't help but squirm up and down.

Not only him, but even Zhang Qingyun and others, including several female dependents, are the same, without exception, the scene looks as weird as it is.

"Duh..."

Gu Qianqiu snorted lightly, and suddenly, everyone who was drunk was awakened, especially Zhuang Weiming, who had already brought the meat to his mouth at this time, and wanted to swallow it in one bite when he opened his mouth.

When I woke up suddenly, I looked at the meat in my mouth, like poison, and after shaking it off, I looked at the table full of dishes in shock.

"Brother Gu, what's going on? Why did I wait just now, as if I had lost my soul, and my mind was full of thoughts, how to eat this table of dishes? Especially this plate of braised pork? ”
