Chapter Twenty-Five: The Price of Eating and Drinking for Nothing

The footsteps came from far and near, and Chen Ye heard a subtle sound of communication.

He closed his eyes and focused, realizing that he could faintly hear what was being said.

"Holy shit, I've been hungry all day, and now I haven't even found any food!"

"Don't make any noise, I heard the sound of fried chestnuts in this alley yesterday, let's see if I can get something to eat."

"Sugar-fried chestnuts? We don't have a single copper coin on us, are you sure you have the money to buy sugar-fried chestnuts? ”

"Last time I heard the clamour, it seemed that it was free to taste, and it didn't cost money if it wasn't delicious."

"But if it's delicious, wouldn't it still cost money...... I said Zhao Cheng, you won't take us into the pit, the forum says that the things in this world can't be eaten indiscriminately, will it be okay to eat it? ”

The young man named "Zhao Cheng" was a little impatient when he was talked, and he said with a hot temper:

"What are you rambling about?"

"If Lao Tzu hadn't risked his life to grab a coin in exchange for the qualification to go to Xijiang to fetch water for you, you would have died of thirst!"

"If you think there's a problem, then get out of here, don't talk about it in this ro, like a bitch."

The discussion gradually became louder and louder, almost spreading throughout the alley.

The others didn't dare to speak, and the atmosphere suddenly became stiff.

Zhao Cheng walked in front of the team with a straight face.

That's when ......

He suddenly smelled the smell of fried chestnuts with sugar, his eyes lit up slightly, and he said:

"There should be fried chestnuts with sugar nearby, let's look for them quickly and see where they are!"

In the night, a trolley used to move a food stall slowly appeared from the end of the alley.

"Sell chestnuts, fresh sugar fried chestnuts."

The fluttering sound suddenly became real, accompanied by the aroma of sugar-fried chestnuts becoming more and more intense......

In the blink of an eye, the old woman selling chestnuts seemed to have come out of the fog and suddenly appeared in front of the group.

Zhao Cheng and the others' eyes suddenly fell straight on the trolley, and at that moment, their consciousness seemed a little sluggish, as if they were completely attracted by the fragrance of sugar-fried chestnuts.

Gollum!!

There was a disagreeable cry from the stomach.

At this moment, they felt the hunger in their stomachs even stronger, and when they smelled the aroma of chestnuts fried with sugar, they seemed to almost lose their ability to think, and only the only thought left in their minds......

"I want to eat it!"

"I want to eat it!"

"I want to eat it!"

In the blink of an eye, the trolley had stopped directly in front of Zhao Cheng and the others.

The old woman who sold chestnuts smiled and said, "Come and try it, fresh fried chestnuts with sugar, five copper coins a catty, it's not delicious and doesn't cost money." ”

However, the greed in Zhao Cheng's eyes became stronger and stronger, and he even seemed to have lost the ability to think rationally.

He ignored the old woman who sold chestnuts, grabbed the hot pot with his bare hands, didn't seem to feel the burning feeling, and threw the freshly baked sugar-fried chestnuts into his mouth.

Followed by......

2nd, 3rd ......

Under the chewing of the sugar-fried chestnuts in Zhao Cheng's mouth, there was a bone-cracking sound, as if what he had eaten was not sugar-fried chestnuts, but pieces of bone fingers.

Several other companions heard the sound of chewing and swallowing, and the desire to eat was carried away again, and immediately gathered around, grabbing the sugar-fried chestnuts in the pot like crazy, and scrambled to throw them into their mouths, gobbling them up, and constantly making the sound of "chirp, chirp" in their mouths, like pigs that had been hungry for seven days.

At this time, Chen Ye watched calmly from the side, and he observed that the aura of luck above the heads of these people was constantly turning black.

A faint blood light slowly brewed out, but the blood light was from the inside out......

Unlike the three new players I saw at the West Street Cake Shop earlier, their aura is from the outside in......

After a while, Zhao Cheng burped and gradually stopped swallowing.

As soon as he raised his head, Chen Ye noticed that the corners of the other party's mouth were all stained with blood.

Shortly after, several others also hiccuped and seemed to have gradually regained consciousness.

The old woman who sold the chestnuts was always smiling from behind, and no matter how much they messed up their pot, they smashed the sugar-fried chestnuts in the pot everywhere, and several of them fell to the ground, stained with dirty mud......

"Young man, is it delicious?"

The fluttering voice came again, echoing around as if it were echoing.

However, it was obviously a concerned greeting, and it was obviously a calm tone, but for some reason, I could feel an extremely cold chill from it, as if it could penetrate into the bone marrow!

"Good ......" Zhao Cheng opened his mouth slightly, subconsciously wanting to say that it was delicious.

Suddenly, as if he realized something, he sneered and grabbed a sugar-fried chestnut again.

After chewing in his mouth, he suddenly showed a frowning and disgusting expression, spit out the sugar-fried chestnuts in his mouth, and said:

"It's unpalatable!"

"Fuck, do you know how to make sugar-fried chestnuts?"

"I can't do it, then don't open a store, make it so unpalatable, I'm disgusting to death!"

"It's so unpalatable, I'm about to vomit when I eat it, and I want to collect money, it's good not to let you lose money!"

“……”

Zhao Cheng scolded in a vicious tone, the words were extremely ugly, and it seemed that the more he scolded, the more excited he became, and in the end, he seemed to lose his mind, and some of the words were scolded so much that he couldn't even bite the words clearly, with a hysterical madness.

Several other accomplices couldn't listen to it anymore, and a flat-headed little brother couldn't help but step forward, pulled the corner of Zhao Cheng's clothes, and said:

"Brother Cheng...... Never mind...... You're going to have an accident like that! ”

"It's a weird ...... here"

"Get out!" Before the flat-headed little brother finished speaking, Zhao Cheng directly pushed the other party away violently and sneered: "Idiot, haven't you read what was said in that forum, don't be afraid when you get along with tricks." You bastards, look at that wretched look, don't follow me if you're afraid of death. ”

He raised his head and said in an arrogant and unreasonable manner: "Heh, old woman, you seem to have said it just now, right? ”

"It's not delicious, no money!"

"It's so unpalatable now, our brothers will never be deceived next time to buy it!"

"Don't be ignorant, if you are really reluctant, the brothers also have a glass of water, which can be exchanged with you."

"If you do this business of buying and selling, then don't blame us for going to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau to report you!"

As he spoke, Zhao Cheng's eyes swept over Chen Ye's body, and he suddenly found that there was an extra teenager like a beggar beside the grandmother who sold chestnuts.

Merely...... This young man looks clear-eyed and harmless to humans and animals, and the old woman has difficulty walking, what threat can she pose to herself?

Thinking of this, Zhao Cheng was even more straightforward, firmly believing that as long as he followed this logic - it was not delicious, and he didn't want money.

Then you can eat and drink for nothing!

Although it can only be used once, since they are already hungry to the point that they can't stand it, let's solve it first.

The smile of the old woman selling chestnuts became more and more vigorous, and the corners of her mouth on both sides suddenly began to crack, and her facial features gradually became hideous and distorted.

Zhao Cheng was suddenly taken aback, and instinctively wanted to escape......

However.

When he just lowered his head to look, an extremely terrifying picture rushed straight to the heavenly spirit cover with the vision, like a nightmare!

I saw that my legs turned into one leg!

The skin and flesh on the outside gradually began to crack and fall off, turning into a thick piece of blood!

The meat did not look like wounded meat, but rather like the meat of a dead man, charcoal-grilled at high temperatures, and finally stuck together.

The entire lower body seems to be swollen into a disgusting tumor!

And with the slow disappearance of consciousness......

The sensation continued to spread upwards, gradually covering the waist to the arms and then to the mouth......

Several other accomplices all showed a hellish expression and hurriedly wanted to escape!

But they found that like Zhao Cheng, their bodies had also undergone this terrifying change.

The old woman who sold the chestnuts finally spoke again, and she said with a smile:

"Young man, I said that if it doesn't taste good, you don't need money."

"But when did you say ......"

"It's not delicious, don't you want anything else?"
