Chapter 60: The Dead

A large shed, nearly ten zhang long, four or five zhang deep, with more than ten bowl thickness of wooden stakes propped up, purlin rafters spread into a skeleton, and then covered with thick pieces of thatch, is the roof of the shed.

More than 10 sets of tables and chairs are set up in the shed, the room is set up outside, a large iron pot is erected, the firewood under the pot is fierce, the thick soup in the pot is boiling, the large pieces of meat are churning inside, and the rich fragrance spreads, making people smell and have a great appetite.

Chen Tang was attracted by this fragrance and strode over.

Such sheds selling food are common in the suburbs of the state capital, most of them are located on the edge of the official road, large and small, some only make pasta, some sell porridge, and some sell tea and cakes, there are many types.

Today, in the greenhouse here, in the morning, I received a big wild boar killed by a hunter, which was more than 500 catties, slaughtered on the spot, and boiled in a cauldron and sold!

It was noon, at meal time, the passing merchants smelled the fragrance, couldn't help it, came in and sat down, and asked the store to cut a pound or two of meat and eat.

When Chen Tang arrived, it was already full.

"Wait a minute, there will be a seat soon!"

The two guys who were busy serving the food and soup, and when one saw Chen Tanglai, he said hello.

Chen Tang was hungry and couldn't wait, so he said: "Shopkeeper, if you can cut five catties of good meat, I'll go to the forest on the side to eat." ”

Around the greenhouse, there are trees hanging in the shade, and there are some stones under the trees, but you can also sit and eat.

"Five catties of meat, you eat it alone?"

The guy looked at Chen Tang with some surprise, seeing that he was not short, he looked a little weak, his face was paralyzed, and he looked dull, anyway, he belonged to the kind of plain appearance of everyone - after the Changting and Yang Hong were separated, Chen Tang's heart moved, walked to a remote place, and changed into a Mowgli painting skin.

When he got this thing, he was going to use it to walk the rivers and lakes.

Study tour is a scholar's statement, but Chen Tang didn't really have to study when he went out this time, it was better to change his face, even if he was wandering the rivers and lakes.

As for the book on his back and the green shirt on his body, there is no need to change it.

Walking in the rivers and lakes, it is not necessary to have an open-chested, shirtless muscular man image with a knife and a gun, such a character shape, at first glance, it is a thug role that does not enter the stream, and it cannot be on the stage.

changed his face, and Chen Tang's voice was lower: "I have a big appetite and love meat." ”

The guy smiled: "I killed a big wild boar today, and the meat is naturally there, but it's ......"

Bite one's tongue.

Chen Tang knew what he was thinking, and immediately took out a big coin and threw it over: "It's no problem now." ”

After receiving a lot of money, the guy smiled: "Okay, you go over there and wait, and the good meat will be served to you immediately." Calculate it then, and then I'll find you money. ”

Chen Tang found the bottom of a nearby tree, put down the book, and sat on the stones.

It didn't take long for the man to bring in a large basin with meat, and rice in the basin, and a bowl full of hot soup.

Chen Tang didn't pay attention to it, so he directly picked up the big pot and started eating.

Perhaps such a rough behavior is in line with the style of walking the rivers and lakes.

The guy smiled: "Guest officer, do you want wine?"

Chen Tang shook his head: "No need." ”

The food sold in these sheds is muddy wine, which is not mellow, choking, and not delicious.

"The guest officer uses it slowly, and I'll come over to clean up the dishes and chopsticks in a while. ”

The man said, go back to work in the shed.

Chen Tang devoured a lot of meat, ate a lot of food, drank a lot of soup, and ate and drank clean in half an hour. I filled my stomach and felt comfortable.

Dengdenden!

A group of people walked on the road, about seven or eight, all of them were sturdy men, and at first glance they were reckless figures, with black clothes on their bodies and a logo embroidered on their chests, which was a "tiger head" appearance, which looked neat and tidy. The leader is a short man with an eye patch in one eye, like the legendary one-eyed dragon.

"Boss Zhou, meat!"

Coming to the shed, a man shouted at the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper nodded: "It turns out that Brother Peng is here, hurry, take a seat." ”

When the traveling merchants, who had been sitting full, saw this group of men coming, they immediately picked up their bowls and meat, and all ran outside.

In the huge shed, there was only a group of men in black sitting there with a grin.

Seeing this, Chen Tang couldn't help asking, "Who are they, why did you all run out?"

A traveling merchant glanced at him and said in a low voice, "Scholar, don't worry too much, they are the heroes of the Tiger Head Gang." ”

"Tiger Head Gang?"

Chen Tang was stunned, he hadn't heard of it.

The traveling merchant said: "You are not from Panzhou, right, in the entire Panzhou Mansion, who doesn't know the Tiger Head Gang?"

Chen Tang was dumbfounded.

However, this is not surprising, the circle in which he lives has always been narrow, and after making friends with Zhao Sanye and Zhan Yangchun recently, he learned that there is a sky outside the sky. To a certain extent, the circle of rivers and lakes to which the Tiger Head Gang belongs is indeed not compatible with him.

It turns out that this Jianghu is really like a storyteller, full of domineering and bullying, and there is morality in the book, but now it seems that it has not been seen.

When eating in a roadside shed, the food is basically paid first, and the store is not afraid of everyone running away.

The Hutou Gang sat in the shed, and the traveling merchants did not dare to stay longer, so they ate a random meal, put down the dishes and chopsticks, and left quickly.

After a while, the guy came to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, and when he saw Chen Tang sitting there and not leaving, he couldn't help but take a second look.

"Brother Peng, your meat is here!"

The shopkeeper personally brought a pot of meat.

The one-eyed dragon named "Brother Peng" suddenly sank, and slapped the table: "Boss Zhou, you are so bold!"

Boss Zhou's body trembled: "Brother Peng, where are you talking about this? I am An An's share, and I dare not lose half a cent of the monthly money." ”

Brother Peng pointed to the meat in the basin: "You collected good meat and sold it privately, who allowed you to do this?"

Boss Zhou wiped his sweat and said busily: "Brother Peng, it's like this, the weather is hot, and the meat is not good, so I cooked it together, put salt, a total of 100 catties, all of which are the best meat, all for Brother Peng, you keep it." ”

Hearing this, Brother Peng's face improved: "Count your acquaintance, remember our Brother Peng's good." Well, I won't worry about this matter with you, so get the good wine. ”

"Yes Yes ......"

The shopkeeper hurriedly responded, glanced at the guy, and asked him to take out the good wine in the box.

After a while, a group of men in the shed put on a posture, drinking and guessing fists, laughing loudly, and making noise.

In this scene, when the traveling merchants who were passing by behind saw this, they originally wanted to eat, but when they saw Brother Peng and others sitting inside, where did they dare to come over, and left quickly.

At noon, the hottest hour, Chen Tang was chilling under the tree, wanting to rest for a while before leaving.

"Dead man, dead man!"

There was a sudden scream, coming from the wooded area behind the shed.

Soon, two men dressed as hunters rushed out in a panic, shouting loudly.
