Walk in the dark passages.

The dim light and the occasional sound of shoes rubbing against the membrane from under the feet were particularly harsh.

Even if they tried their best to restrain the strength of their feet, they would still make that piercing sound.

After passing through the passage, a wider passage appeared in front of it, and in the center of the passage was a heavy iron gate with a side door.

The iron door was open, and several plastic curtains hung in the opening, as if to isolate the air inside.

"This is the main place in the kitchen, where the store manager usually makes the ingredients, and then takes the prepared products to the kitchen for the chef to process." Ziyan whispered to a few people behind her.

Several people nodded solemnly, followed Ziyan, lifted the plastic curtain, and sneaked in.

As soon as they entered, everyone immediately felt a chill on their faces, as if they had stepped into an ice vault.

"Your store manager works in the freezer?"

Wu Xing rubbed his two arms vigorously and spit out white gas in his mouth as he spoke, which showed how cold the temperature was.

"Me, I'm here for the first time." Ziyan was so cold that her whole body trembled.

Li Ran felt that the temperature in the back kitchen had plummeted by at least thirty degrees, twenty degrees outside, and at least more than ten degrees below zero inside.

He's okay, his physique is 1450, which is enough for him to adapt to all kinds of harsh environments.

Xue Jin, Lan Daifei, and Huang Rujin were all fine, and they did not show discomfort.

"Did you notice, it's much bigger than what we normally see." Lan Daifei whispered.

Everyone also felt this way, and as soon as they entered the back kitchen, they found that the things in the back kitchen were extraordinarily huge.

The back kitchen was empty and huge, and Li Ran estimated that it was at least the size of a basketball court, and it was full of stainless steel equipment.

Overhead is full of fume ducts, below is a stainless steel worktop, there is a tall and wide ingredient table in the middle, and several huge trash cans are placed on the floor.

How huge is the trash can?

Li Ran visually saw that the trash can on the ground was taller than a person, and although it looked like a trash can, Li Ran thought it was as big as a gasoline can.

Not only the garbage cans, but also the various ingredient boxes on the table, the dishes, chopsticks, knives, and even the blazing stove and soup stove are several times larger than the average restaurant.

This feeling made him feel as if he had broken into the world of a giant, or was it through the curtain door, and they collectively shrunk?

Everyone else feels the same way.

This does not bode well.

This means that the manager of the restaurant is either a giant or has the ability to make them smaller.

Li Ran hoped that this was his delusion.

"By the way, do you feel like we've become dwarfs?" Huang Rujin said in a low voice.

Everyone nodded, indicating that they all felt this way.

"Are you sure it's a bootstrap mission?" Xue Jin looked at Ziyan and asked.

Ziyan nodded affirmatively, "Yes." ”

Seeing that everyone looked a little uneasy, she looked embarrassed: "Why don't you do other tasks first, and I will do this task alone in the future." ”

"It's coming." Xue Jin swept over the cold back kitchen, and then said, "Let's go together and see what kind of secret is hidden here." ”

"Hmm."

Subsequently, the group crept under the table in the back kitchen and shuttled carefully, not daring to make a sound.

After going deeper, there is a feeling of entering the world of giants.

Li Ran noticed that a huge machete stood on a huge cutting board covered in flesh and blood, the handle of the knife was as thick as his thigh, and that knife was more than enough to cut cattle!

There was also the flesh on the cutting board and the minced meat in the trash can, and for a while, people wondered what kind of creature the store manager was slaughtering behind here.

"Bang dang!"

At this moment, a loud noise came from the depths of the back kitchen.

Everyone hid under the platform, frozen in place as if the pause button had been pressed, and they didn't even dare to breathe.

The loud sound was like the sound of a stainless steel basin falling to the ground, which was particularly loud and harsh in this dark and cold kitchen environment.

Then, they heard the sound of the stainless steel basin being picked up again, mixed with heavy footsteps in the distance.

It wasn't until the footsteps were far away that everyone dared to breathe.

"I'll go, isn't that what a rat feels like?" Wu Xing whispered in horror.

"It turns out that being a rat is so scary." Lan Daifei said.

They feel like rats stealing food in the kitchen at the moment, using various card perspectives to avoid being discovered.

Several people took refuge under the stage while looking around for secrets in the back kitchen.

"Boom! Boom! Boom! ”

It wasn't long before the footsteps of the distance came.

The crowd scurried under the platform like fleeing rats, looking for a place to hide.

Because they were too flustered, the group was divided into three teams.

Li Ran and Huang Rujin hid under the sink, and there was a huge trash can in front of them.

Xue Jin and Lan Daifei hid in the storage cupboard, a hidden crack in the door to look outside.

Ziyan and Wu Xing were more unlucky, the two of them went in the wrong direction due to excessive panic, and in their panic, they had to hide behind a vegetable basket full of potatoes under the ingredient table.

All six of them held their breath, staring at the huge figure through the gap in panic.

"Boom! Boom! Boom! ”

The first thing that catches your eye is the huge lower body like elephant legs, the oversized leather boots and the oversized chef's apron, and the footsteps that make the ground shake with it, and everyone can't help but think of two words - giant!

Li Ran thought that the giant's boots could stuff two people, and even trample them to death like rats with one kick!

The giant store manager came to the ingredient table, and from Li Ran's position, the store manager's burly back like Mount Tai could be seen.

Because he was hiding under the sink, he couldn't see the chef's head from this angle, only a tall chef's hat.

Huang Rujin behind him leaned against the wall of the sink, covering his mouth tightly to reveal two frightened eyes.

In the locker, Xue Jin and Lan Daifei also noticed the giant-like kitchen manager through the crack in the door on the cabinet.

Wu Xing and Ziyan were miserable.

Because the giant store manager was right in front of them, the two of them were like shivering mice hiding behind the vegetable basket, so frightened and desperate that they even stopped breathing.

"Uh~uh~uh~"

The giant shopkeeper didn't know what he was doing on the ingredient table, sometimes making a low roar that resembled thick phlegm stuck in the depths of his throat, and sometimes making a loud noise on the counter.

Every time there was movement, it made several people's hearts beat violently.

The crowd did not dare to move, let alone make any sound.

At this time, the giant store manager stretched out his hand to get the vegetables from the vegetable basket.

A huge calloused palm with abscesses on the back of the hand fell from in front of Wu Xing and Ziyan.

Both of them turned pale, and their hearts were about to jump out.

But fortunately, the giant store manager didn't notice them under the basket, but just took out a huge potato from the basket and cut it on the ingredient table.

After a while, the giant manager left the ingredient table and walked in the direction of the soup stove.

It wasn't until the giant store manager walked away that several people came out from several directions one after another like rats, and quickly rushed to the bottom of the table of the fierce furnace.

The whole process was quick and silent, and everyone unconsciously formed a tacit understanding, and all made eye contact.

I'm afraid that a movement will attract the attention of the giant store manager.

Just now they had already seen the giant store manager, and several people confirmed with their eyes that it was an existence that they couldn't deal with.

Now they just want to find the secret in the back kitchen and leave the back kitchen.

Stay in this place for a second longer, and it feels like your heart is going to beat out!

The fear of fate in the hands of the enemy is the most terrible.

The giant store manager moved to another place again.

Several people's eyes locked on the soup bucket.

"The secret isn't going to be in that soup bucket." Ziyan lowered her voice and said in a voice as thin as a mosquito.

"This shop makes soup, and the secret may be dashi, which should be it." Lan Daifei said in a low voice.

The others also felt that the secret was in the broth.

But now the problem is that the soup bucket is placed on a separate stove, which is more than two meters high, and they have to climb up to the stove that is more than two meters high, and then they have to climb up the soup barrel seven or eight meters high to see the secrets in the soup barrel.

And this climbing process can't be discovered by the giant store manager, and you have to have agile climbing ability or flying ability.

"This task of probing and guiding is too difficult." Xue Jin said with a frown.

"I'm sorry, I didn't know it would be like this, I knew I would have gone to other tasks first." Ziyan lowered her head and said with a guilty face.

"It's all here, you can't give up all your efforts, let's find a way to climb up." Lan Daifei looked up at the soup bucket thoughtfully.

Li Ran's eyes were fixed on the soup bucket, and his brows were tightly locked.

Ziyan's bootstrap mission is similar to a probe mission, where you only need to find the secret of the back kitchen to complete the task.

That is, as long as someone climbs up and sees the secrets inside the bone broth bucket, the task can be completed.

It's a bold task, and you have to take a certain amount of risk.

"Well, I'll climb up, and you cover for me." Ziyan looked at the huge soup bucket and continued in a low voice, "This is originally my task, and I don't want to trouble everyone. ”

Xue Jin asked, "Is anyone going with her?" ”

Everyone was silent, everyone knew that the task was dangerous.

The stove and the soup bucket are ten meters high, and the climbing process must be silent and fast, and not be detected by the giant store manager.

For the average player, the difficulty is really high.

After seeing that no one answered, Ziyan frowned slightly and said, "In this case, I will also take out all the task points, whoever can help me complete this task, the points will belong to him." ”

When Li Ran heard that there were points, his eyes lit up.

In fact, this task is not difficult for him at all.

He can fly up with the soul of the little demon baby, or he can use the shadow to swim on the wall from the shadows around him, and he only needs to see what is in the soup bucket, and even if he completes the task, he can easily get points, isn't it beautiful.

Just when Li Ran was about to speak.

"How many points do you have for this task?" Wu Xing asked first.

"Five...... Five hundred. Ziyan said.

"I really want this point, the ten-meter-high soup bucket is not difficult for me, the difficult thing is not to be discovered by the giant store manager." Wu Xing said in a low voice.

At this time, Huang Rujin also stood up, and she whispered: "I also want to try, I have no problem climbing this." ”

For a while, both of them said that they were going to help Ziyan complete the task.

Ziyan was also in trouble, she said: "Why don't you two go together, this task is to explore the mission, you only need to see the secrets inside to complete the task, after the task is completed, the points will be divided equally between you and you." ”

Wu Xing and Huang Rujin glanced at each other, and their eyes were firm.

"Yes."

"I'm fine."

Afterwards, the two hid under the fierce fire and discussed countermeasures and how to climb the fastest path to the soup barrel in the fastest way.

After the two discussed, they already had an answer.

The next thing is to wait for the giant store manager to go away, and the two of them will be able to act.

The giant store manager will walk around the back kitchen, cutting vegetables, side dishes, stocking, stir-frying, carrying, and inspecting the soup bucket, repeating the cycle in these places, only need to grasp the store manager's rules in the back kitchen, and it is not difficult to complete this task.

"Hey, how nice it would be to let me go." Li Ran sighed in a low voice.

"You can join now, too." Lan Daifei replied in a low voice.

"The three of them have 500 points, it's not worth it." Li Ran said.

"Cut, you can't use points at all, so don't pretend there, okay, when you find another demon, it's your death date!" Wu Xing stared at Li Ran fiercely, and in his heart, Li Ran was undoubtedly an iron demon.

Faced with the doubts of his pig teammates, Li Ran didn't even bother to respond.

After waiting for a while, Huang Rujin and Wu Xing were ready.

The giant shopkeeper walked to the farthest point from the soup stove, and the two of them quickly scurried under the stove of the soup bucket.

Then, Huang Rujin put a piece of tape or something under her feet, and then stepped on the wall of the stove with both feet......

In the astonished gaze of everyone, she walked upright on the wall of the stove, as if she were walking on flat ground.

On the other side, Wu Xing took out a similar crossbow hook from his pocket and launched a rope hook towards the top of the soup bucket, the hooked the edge of the soup bucket with great precision, Wu Xing tried to pull a few times, and after confirming that it was safe, he quickly climbed towards the wall of the stove.

In this way, one person stepped on the wall of the soup barrel, and the other person grabbed the rope and climbed up without affecting each other.

In front of the huge soup bucket, the two of them are like shrunken little people, climbing the vertical and steep cliff.

The two of them were cautious and did not dare to make any noise.

The four people below were also frightened, and they sweated for the two of them.

Soon, Huang Rujin and Wu Xing arrived at the edge of the soup bucket almost at the same time, and the two of them grabbed the edge with their hands, and they only needed to climb up a little more to see the secret inside the barrel.

The two of them made a gesture of mutual interest and decided to look inside together.

Huang Rujin and Wu Xing grabbed the edge of the bucket and quietly poked their heads out to look into the bucket.

When they saw the situation inside the barrel, the faces of the two changed suddenly!

"Knock knock!"

At this moment, the giant store manager came in a hurry, and the footsteps suddenly appeared in everyone's ears.

Only then did the four of them who were hiding under the blazing fire see that the giant manager had no head, only a tall chef's hat fixed around his neck.

When I saw the headless giant store manager running wildly towards the soup bucket.

Li Ran secretly shouted that it was not good!

At the same time, on the side of Wu Xing and Huang Rujin, when the two of them saw the scene in the barrel, their faces instantly froze.

There is a hidden face in the soup stock filled with soup and various condiments!

When you look at the face hidden in the soup stock.

Wu Xing and Huang Rujin's faces suddenly turned blue and white.

At the thought of the delicious bone fairy soup outside, the two of them had a chill, but fortunately they didn't eat it.

"Materials, fresh materials again!"

Suddenly, the giant face in the soup suddenly opened its eyes, and a penetrating smile appeared that made the scalps of the two of them explode!

Wu Xing and Huang Rujin screamed in fright, and climbed down the soup bucket in great panic.

However, at this moment, the headless giant store manager ran wildly to the position of the soup bucket, and two huge arms grabbed the two people on the soup bucket.

The sudden scene surprised everyone.

Wu Xing couldn't react before he was caught in the huge palm of the headless store manager.

Huang Rujin reacted a little faster, she stepped on the wall of the barrel, with the help of the rebound force, jumped to the outside of the refrigerator on the other side, and then, at a very fast speed, slid along the outside of the refrigerator to the ground.

The headless store manager grabbed the screaming Wu Xing, and waved his hands to grab Huang Rujin in the crack of the refrigerator.

Huang Rujin hid in the gap between the stove and the refrigerator, and the thick arm of the giant store manager was just stuck, and he was almost able to catch her.

Huang Rujin leaned against the innermost part of the crack, almost against the wall, his face full of horror and helplessness.

The giant store manager's arm was too thick, and in the end, he had no choice but to give up Huang Rujin.

It held Wu Xing in one hand and came to the soup bucket.

"Ingredients, fresh ingredients again."

With the other hand, he scooped up the skull and placed it on the broken neck, as if it were a clockwork part.

This scene made the scalps of the four people under the fierce fire numb.

"Ah...... Save me, save me, save me! ”

The four of them heard Wu Xing's desperate shouts.

But no one could save him, or rather, no one was willing to risk their lives to save him.

It's not that it's callous!

It can't be saved!

They are not necessarily the opponents of the giant store manager.

Saving Wu Xing is to expose himself, and he may even be in danger of his life.

"Ah!!h

At this time, after the head of the giant store manager was settled, he held Wu Xing hard with both hands, and the sound of the terrifying bones being squeezed "gurgling" accompanied by Wu Xing's screams resounded throughout the back kitchen.

Then, Wu Xing's voice could no longer be heard.

Li Ran looked at the giant store manager in great horror, and said in his heart: "Giant butcher, A-rank, trick power value 4200?" This Nima is a bootstrap mission?! ”

"Ingredients, I've found fresh ingredients." The giant's beastly roar echoed in the back kitchen.

Then they heard the sound of chopping bones and flesh.

Every time the heavy and huge bone chopping knife fell, their hearts jumped heavily.

The voice lasted for a long time.

Some of the pieces were dumped inside the trash.

After a while, the giant store manager poured some of the ingredients and meat pieces into the soup bucket in one go.

"Tomorrow's Bone Immortal Soup has fallen." The giant made an unpleasantly hoarse sound.

An indescribable taste in everyone's hearts.

Huang Rujin, who was hiding in the cracks of the refrigerator, covered her mouth in a broken heart, not daring to make a sound.

Feelings of despair, breakdown, and grief haunted several people's minds.

Several people were silent and did not speak again.

Until the terrifying giant store manager walked away.

They quietly emerged from the corner and fled like rats in a hurry.
