Chapter 52: The Corpse Inn

Since they were heading towards Gu Holy City, and the direction was not wrong, the route that Su Qi and Qin Na walked became more and more remote.

It's not like before, you can still go to the town, when the moon rose overhead, Qin Na yawned, obviously a little sleepy, but Su Qi pointed ahead: "Luckily, we just happened to meet a corpse inn." ”

Along the way, Su Qi also popularized some cultivation knowledge with Qin Na, and in this land, in addition to Gu worms being the mainstream, there are still many people from the three sects and nine streams.

Chase away the corpse, as the ...... of Maoshan Features, it takes a long time to go out at every turn.

And these corpses are not suitable to be brought to the town, otherwise once there is a corpse transformation, or any situation, it will cause great damage.

Therefore, every Taoist priest who drives out corpses sleeps in the open, and this has also given birth to a kind of business, doing the business of the dead, driving corpses, and opening corpse inns.

Su Qi once followed Uncle Jiu to see a corpse inn, and it was not enough to say how wonderful it was, but unlike a normal inn, it was almost always open at night, and the shopkeeper also knew some techniques of controlling corpses, just like Xiao Er, who led a horse, but here, it was just a corpse that led away.

Along the forest path, in the faint fog, the mule cart slowly came to the inn.

Looking at this inn, which covers a fairly small area, it is a little quaint, obviously old, and two white lanterns are hanging on both sides, reflecting a little light.

Su Qi just reached out and knocked on the door, and saw the door open directly, and among them, an extremely hunchbacked old man stood behind the threshold with a smile.

The smile is a little oozing, the teeth that are almost gone, and the wrinkled face all show the old age and mystery of this person.

"It seems that they are not guests who drive corpses, but those who can come to my old man's place are all guests, please do not want to be here!"

Carrying a lantern, there is a faint green light emitting from it, and if you look closely, you will see that it is burning human oil that has just been made.

The inn was a little dim, and the faintly emitted glow made Qin Na unconsciously get close to Su Qi, she carefully hid behind, only dared to stretch out a small head to look, as if she was frightened by something, and quickly retracted it, but she couldn't help but be curious, a typical person is still addicted to food.

"Okay, let's go, you'll get used to seeing a lot!" Su Qi strode in, and he actually felt that the environment inside was a little infiltrating, especially when he saw a dead human skin.

"Hey, shopkeeper, there's no one here, is the business so bad?" Su Qi asked casually, but he didn't expect the old shopkeeper to be interested, and he responded slowly:

"Who says it's not, it's reasonable that the old man's business should be better, but there are really few people coming to the door recently, oh, a few came yesterday, but they didn't sit for a while, and then left again, saying that they were in a hurry to do business?"

The old shopkeeper babbled in front and led the way, and did not stop until he came to a table.

"Eat first?"

Su Qi was also hungry, so he sat on the chair directly and said with a smile: "The old shopkeeper can come with some food, but let's have something for normal people to eat, we are not corpses." ”

"Well, there are dishes to prepare, and you won't be disappointed."

After a while, the old shopkeeper brought some dishes by himself, but there was no choice in this corpse inn, and they would eat whatever they bringed.

Steamed fish, pork slices, stir-fried ......

The dishes are very rich, and they are not limited to this area, and it seems that the old shopkeeper's skills and knowledge are not bad.

Qin Na poked a few times with chopsticks, and even planned to take out a silver needle to test the poison, in fact, Su Qi was to blame, there were a lot of things along the way, and it was not taboo to be raw and cooked, which naturally made the little girl with three points of fear, three points of surprise, and the remaining ninety-four points were all vigilant.

Looking at this girl funny, Su Qi didn't care about her, and started to eat directly, but the posture of picking chopsticks was a little stiff, and Qin Na also whispered 'It's a pity', she just tasted it a few times, and then put down the chopsticks, because she really didn't feel any taste.

"Is it the food that doesn't suit the taste?" The old shopkeeper looked at Qin Na's lack of appetite, and in his tone, he was very concerned, after all, if his granddaughter was still there, it should be so old.

Hearing the kind greeting of the old shopkeeper, Qin Na also replied quite politely: "No, your cooking is delicious, but there is no taste in my mouth, let Brother Su Qi eat these, anyway, he eats everything." ”

Qin Na's words, there is no problem, because, after a short while, almost half of the sweep in front of him, and half of it, he pointed with his chopsticks and said, "I don't have any taste to eat, but I can't waste food." ”

The expression was very serious, even the old shopkeeper couldn't help nodding, there was some reminiscence in the muddy old eyes, there had been a lot of famine, food was more important than anyone else, whether it was in ancient times, or now in the years of war and chaos, maybe the biggest wish of ordinary people is to have enough food.

If you waste food, it will be thundered by the sky, so the old shopkeeper ate all the family members very carefully at that time, and even the bones were not wasted.

Hearing the old shopkeeper start to talk about his past, Qin Na's ass unconsciously moved in the direction of Su Qi, and the expression on her face began to frown deeply, she would not hurt her family.

"So, I'm not going to eat human flesh, am I?" Su Qi picked up a piece of meat and took a closer look.

"Of course not, old man, I still pay attention to honesty in business, what is the name of the dish, this is what kind of dish." The old shopkeeper also showed a very serious expression, and the most important thing he paid attention to in this business was integrity.

In this regard, Su Qi also nodded, but he still couldn't help but say: "The dish is right, but the amount of the ecstasy and soul medicine you put is a bit large, and some particles have not melted, which will definitely affect the taste." ”

Saying that, Su Qi also pulled it, and indeed some drug particles were still in it, it should be a little rushed, after all, the old shopkeeper was just cooking alone.

Such a comment made the old shopkeeper, who was also a cook, a little ashamed, and he said apologetically: "This medicine is the first time I use this old man, and I used to chop the guests directly, but now I am really a little uncomfortable." ”

The whole environment became more and more weird and dark, and the communication between the two made Qin Na open her mouth wide, and for the first time, she felt that she had a lot of things to learn from Su Qi, such as now, it is clear that she is already at the level of life and death, but she can still sit together so calmly.

In the most peaceful tone, say the most ruthless words!
