Chapter 324: Salt

The ancients got up early, and painted the eaves in the morning to see the crows.

The smoke rises from the ancient town, the women put on their aprons, light the fire to cook, the kitchen is steaming, the city that has been silent all night is noisy again, the sun rises and eats, and the people who get up early to work need to supplement enough nutrition in the early morning to cope with the unfinished work.

Outside the city gate, the breakfast stall makes a pot of batter gruel, and the tea shop is busy boiling water.

"Hot gruel batter ~ hot soup glutton~"

The cook of the breakfast stall put a rag on her shoulder to greet the customers warmly, and saw a girl with a straw hat passing by from a distance.

"Girl, come and have some breakfast, fresh vegetables and hot soup, and salt in it~"

Bai Yujun thought about it, eating salt is very important, it seems that there has been no salt replenishment for a long time, eat breakfast first, and then buy some salt to eat.

Many wild animals have the habit of searching for salt soil to replenish salt.

Wild animals can't do without salt, many large animals will lick salt-containing minerals or rocks when they can't get enough salt by eating, snakes don't need to search for salt under normal circumstances, small herbivores absorb trace amounts of salt by eating grass and drinking water, and snakes also get enough nutrients when they eat these small animals.

But since the demon cultivation, the problem has arisen, that is, the hunting is intermittent and cannot obtain enough salt.

It's not that cultivating demons can ignore the body's nutritional needs, and aura is not a panacea, it's just a special energy.

Lack of salt can lead to muscle weakness, and Bai Yujun has also bought salt to eat before.

For example, cattle and sheep herders feed their animals salt on a regular basis.

Hearing that salt was added to breakfast, Bai Yujun sat down happily, it was very good, he had to go outside the city to lick the salt mine rocks, and he also saved money to buy salt, salt is very expensive, although that thing is as much as it needs at the seaside, there is no way, the gate valve family monopolizes the salt industry for huge profits.

"Have a bowl of gluttony. ”

"Okay~"

The cook quickly filled a bowl of dumplings, which are actually noodle soups, cooked and sprinkled with spices, of course, don't expect too much salt, the price is too expensive, a little salty and thankful.

I took a sip while it was hot and didn't feel too salty, shook my head, picked up the bowl of rice and pulled it into my mouth.

There is not much salt, the content is very small, after eating, you have to buy some salt to supplement your physical fitness, 30 meters long body, how to eat three or five catties.

After breakfast, he went straight to the salt shop with a horizontal knife on his back.

I bought five catties of large grains of coarse salt, warmed and melted it with a small spell, and then fixed it into a big lump, found a sunny wall root to settle down, sat on a small bench and licked the big lump of salt.

Very happy......

It's like a cat and a dog adding a rice bowl, licking salt and licking a rustling sound.

"Sand ...... Sand ......"

Passers-by looked sideways, saying that it was to show off their wealth, the poor could not buy such a large piece of salt, and having enough salt to eat was the lifelong dream of every poor person.

But the act of holding the salt lump and licking it is still a bit weird.

Saliva melts salt cubes, thick salt is divided into the abdomen, quickly conditioning the body to make the huge body more powerful, balanced nutrition enhances physical fitness, and the more you eat, the more you have a sense of happiness.

The sun is warm and comfortable to shine on, relieving the moisture caused by continuous cloudy days.

I don't know when there was a strong man in front of him, wearing a coarse linen coat and looking at Bai Yujun and swallowing saliva, saliva even dripped down the stubble on his chin.

Bai Yujun glanced up, and took out a small bench and put it beside him.

"Sand ...... Sit...... Rustle......"

The muscular man sat down, his saliva dripping more and more, his eyes staring at the large piece of salt in Bai Yujun's hand, and the strong taste of salt made him uneasy.

"You want to eat this?" Bai Yujun pointed to the salt block.

The strong man nodded vigorously.

A certain snake looked at the big piece of salt in his hand and then looked at the poor strong man, and reluctantly broke off the big piece of salt in his fist and handed it to the strong man, the strong man was happy, and licked the salt in his hand happily.

"Rustling ......"

On the side of the street, two figures licked the salt bars, and the rustling sound made passers-by and shopkeepers doubt life, everyone was short of salt, but they had never seen it eaten in such a way.

The strong man is a bull demon, who has just been transformed, perhaps because he has been with humans all year round, so he has learned to speak and learn how to behave in the world.

"You have a story, I have salt, tell me about your experience, it should be salt. ”

The bull demon licked and narrated, and with the narration Bai Yujun knew its story, a life completely different from that of 100,000 mountain demon beasts, it was a buffalo, and plowing the fields was all it had.

Many years ago, the bull demon was just an ordinary buffalo, ploughing the fields and plowing the land, occasionally absorbing the sun and moonlight to open the wisdom, but did not choose to leave, and the old partner lived a very easy life, the old farmer was very good to it, tickled it for it to drive away mosquitoes, and always fed it the best and most tender forage, for fear that it would not be full.

What makes the bull demon feel happiest is that the old man occasionally avoids his grandmother and secretly feeds it salt, the taste of salt is very fragrant, and his body is strong after eating.

Countless sunsets, moonrises, sunsets, the old man carries the grass on his shoulders and leads the bull demon to walk on the ridge, the rice flowers are fragrant, the frogs chirp and the insects chirp, and they go home together after doing farm work, and return to the comfortable cowshed.

It likes to plow the land, and likes to sit next to the old man to smoke hookah between work, and the smell of smoke can drive away flies and insects.

Accustomed to the old man's chatter, learned the human language, and understood the old man's anger about paying rent in the autumn and his son's anxiety about not being able to marry a daughter-in-law, it could not do much but plow a few more plots of land every day to make the old man happy.

The old man likes to put a small amount of expensive salt in the palm of his hand and let the ploughing ox lick it, and the fallen salt grains will be carefully picked up.

Life is very peaceful, and the bull demon likes this kind of life.

However, fate is unpredictable, and tranquility does not exist.

In the autumn, because the old man refused to pay more taxes and grains in previous years, he was beaten to death by the squire and the tax collectors, and the old man who used to like to feed it salt and cut the hay carefully was beaten into an inhuman shape, and the rough hands full of calluses still held on to the grain before he died, and refused to let go, and the dry white hair could not cover the old eyes that were not blind.

The bull demon was furious, no matter who the other party was, he lowered his head and threw it violently, piercing those tax collectors with his horns and killing the squire!

Finally, he came to the old man and mooed to wake up the old man, but the old man died.

Grandma cried and told the bull demon to hurry up, go as far as possible, never come back, the bull demon obeyed Grandma's words and kept running, running for three days and three nights.

It knew it would never go back......

After listening to the story, Bai Yujun looked at the salt cube in his hand for a moment, and then broke a piece and handed it to Lao Niu.

"Don't go into the city again after eating, there are many people in the city, go to the remote mountainous area to find a place to live quietly, and don't come back." ”

Hearing this, the old cow demon who was holding the salt and licking it paused.

"Well, I don't like going into town either, thank you for the salt. ”

"You're welcome. ”

The two figures, one large and one small, continued to lick the salt in silence, and the rustling sound continued.

After eating the salt, the old cow left, carrying a large bag of coarse salt given to him by Bai Yujun.

Everyone is a monster, there is no need to meet to fight and kill, life is not easy, it is better to go to the stall to make money if you have the strength to fight.
