Chapter 76: Flatbread, Fox Demon
The old man hesitated for a moment and said, "Yes, yes, but it's just a few baked cakes that don't taste very good, can you eat them?"
Qiao Feng smiled: "Hehe, I'm not a picky eater, as long as I can eat it." ”
The old man said, "That's okay." Wait here while I'll go into the house and get it. ”
Qiao Feng said: "Okay, thank you." ”
Next, I saw the old man turn around and walk into the stone hut on the side.
After a while, he walked out again, holding a stack of scallion flatbread in his hand.
He walked directly in front of Qiao Feng and said, "Little brother, there are only five flatbreads, all of them will be given to you." As he spoke, he handed the flatbread to him.
Qiao Feng was also polite, reached out to take it, and said thank you.
After that, they chatted with each other a few more times.
Then, as if something had happened, the old man hurried away.
Qiao Feng handed two flatbreads to Ding Jian and said, "Xiaojian, my brother has a large amount of food, so I'll eat three and give you two, no objections, right?"
Ding Jian laughed and said, "Boss, I'll only eat one." As he spoke, he took only one sheet.
Qiao Feng said: "It's okay, anyway, you don't look like you're hungry." ”
Next, the two of them began to eat.
Ding Jian took a bite and found that there was a hint of rancidness, and he wanted to spit it out, but after thinking about it, it is not easy for ordinary people to plant a field, and every grain is hard, so it can't be wasted, so he had to swallow it.
And he ate up the rest of the loaf of bread by dividing it by two.
After eating, he looked at Qiao Feng and saw that the latter was eating with relish, and couldn't help but suspect that his taste buds were different from ordinary people.
Qiao Feng saw him staring at him with strange eyes, so he spoke: "Xiaojian, looking at your appearance, you have eaten it all at once, don't you think it is delicious? You look at me like this, do you want me to give you some more?"
Ding Jian smiled: "Hehe, no need, you eat, eat slowly." Well, I eat fast, and that's not because it's delicious. On the contrary, I didn't think it was very tasty, so I just killed it in one go, so that if I ate it slowly, I was afraid that I would not be able to stand the strange smell and turn back to my stomach, which would not be fun. ”
Qiao Feng smiled and said, "Okay, if you don't grab food with me, then I'll rest assured." I can eat a hundred ...... of such delicious flatbread."
Ding Jian was speechless: "A hundred, boss, you're too exaggerated, aren't you?"
At this time, Qiao Feng seemed to be choked, and his face turned a little red, but he was fine after coughing twice.
Seeing this, Ding Jian said, "Boss, I won't talk to you yet, you can eat slowly." After eating, let's discuss something. ”
"What's the matter?" Qiao Feng couldn't help but say casually, "It doesn't matter, you can also talk while eating." ”
Ding Jian said: "No. Boss, you'd better finish eating first. I don't want to be sprayed with crumbs in your face. ”
Qiao Feng snorted: "Hehe, okay then." ”
So, the next thing is the time for Qiao Feng to perform alone and eat cakes.
The first one, I was in a bit of a hurry, and I ate it in two bites.
The second one, he had to taste it slowly, and it took five bites to finish it.
In the third, he slowed down, and while eating, he tasted it aftertaste, and it took seven bites to finish it.
The last one, he really wanted to eat, and some were reluctant to eat, took a bite, hesitated for a while, the first half, he gnawed a total of six times, the second half, he was ruthless, two bites to eat.
After eating, he was still unsatisfied, so he slapped his mouth a few times.
Ding Jian kept staring at him, and at this time, seeing that he had finished eating, he couldn't help but tease: "Boss, seeing that you love to eat so much, we will simply stay here for a long time, in this case, you will have a big cake to eat every day." ”
Qiao Feng shook his head and said, "No, no." There are some delicacies that are enough to eat once, and if you eat them every day, it is easy to get tired. Okay, Xiaojian, let's get down to business, you just said that you wanted to discuss something with me, what is that matter?
Ding Jian looked straight and said: "Boss, the eldest lady just said that there are many children in this Qingqiu City who have mysteriously gone missing, since this matter has been bumped into us, if we don't care about it, our conscience will be uneasy, what do you think?"
Qiao Feng said: "When the road is uneven, draw a knife to help." That's what my dad used to tell me. So, if you want to care, I don't have any objection at all, anyway, we have some extra time, so let's check it out and see where the Holy One is so bold?"
Ding Jian said: "Okay." So what do we do next?"
"This ......" Qiao Feng pondered for a moment and said, "Qingqiu City is not far ahead, let's go to the city first, there are many people there, so it is convenient for us to find someone to inquire about the situation." ”
Ding Jian said: "Okay." Where there are more people, there are more clues. By the way, Boss, do you think this is man-made, or did the legendary thousand-year-old fox demon that lurks in the depths of the Green Fox Hill do it?"
Qiao Feng said: "This is not easy to say. I have also heard of the legend of the thousand-year-old fox demon in the Green Fox Hill, and the legend is that it is a terrifying creature at the level of a demon demon, equivalent to the king of monks, devouring yang energy in the air, if those children fall into its hands, they will definitely lose their lives. I wonder if it's cultivating some kind of evil art that needs to devour a child's yang energy?"
Ding Jian pondered for a moment and said, "It's very possible." However, if it is really the work of a demon of the underworld, then the strength of the two of us, I am afraid that it is not worthy of being stuffed between our teeth. ”
Qiao Feng nodded and said, "Well, our strength can barely beat the giant demon at most." As for the monsters above the old demon, then don't think about it, if you encounter it, you can hide as far as you want. ”
Ding Jian said: "That's not it. Therefore, no matter what, when we climb the Green Fox Hill, we must be extremely careful. ”
Qiao Feng thought for a moment and said, "Well, that's a must, be careful to sail the Ten Thousand Year Boat." Let's go, Xiaojian, I'll go to Qingqiu City first. ”
"Okay!" Ding Jian replied, and added, "Let's go to the city first, and then investigate secretly, if we can't do anything, we just have to do our part." ”
Qiao Feng nodded: "Well, just do your best, and you don't have to force the rest." It is up to people to make things happen, and it is up to heaven to make things happen......"
Next, the two talked as they walked forward.
Okay, okay.
After walking for more than a hundred miles, when the sun was setting, they finally came to the gate of Qingqiu City.
During this period of time, because many children disappeared mysteriously, people were panicked, and the work of defending the city became very strict.
In front of the city gate, a team of ten people was stationed in a team of guards, one by one, divided into two rows, a row of five people, respectively on both sides of the gate, strictly checking the people entering and leaving.
Due to the strict inspection, the efficiency was inevitably slow, which led to a long queue in front of the door.
When Ding and Qiao arrived, that team was already seventeen or eighteen meters long, and after a rough calculation, two people were squeezed out of one meter, that is, no less than thirty people.
Some of those people are dressed as hunters, some are dressed as merchants, some are dressed as scholars, anyway, there are all kinds of people.
However, they are just ordinary people with a bit of brute strength, and a few may have practiced some self-defense martial arts, and they can barely be regarded as ordinary martial artists, but they all belong to the majority of all living beings, and they can only eat at the bottom of the rivers and lakes.
Although Ding and Qiao were from a big family and their own strength was extraordinary, they didn't feel that they were much more noble than others, so they still honestly went to the bottom.
