Chapter 113: Crying
"Childe, your meat is ready. ”
A steaming, fragrant pot was put on the table.
This beast has just grown up, it is not big, it only has six or seven catties, it is slaughtered cleanly, no internal organs and other things, nearly four catties, and the weight is very sufficient.
The shopkeeper once asked Chen Tang that the inn wanted to buy two or three catties of meat and sell it to others. But Chen Tang refused, he can eat four catties of meat now.
"What fragrant meat!"
At a table next to him, the two sons sat there, and the slightly chubby "Zihan" smelled the fragrance, his eyes lit up, and he shouted: "Shopkeeper, you are so cunning." I asked you just now, do you have any meat, but you don't think you look down on us and others, for fear that we can't afford to pay for it?"
After hearing this, the diners at several tables who were eating at the inn at the moment looked at the pot of meat on Chen Tang's table, and their faces were not good.
Some of these diners were scholars, some were traveling merchants, and there was a strong man with a big waist and a round waist, and on the table was a strip wrapped in a strip of cloth, which looked like a long knife.
The strong man slapped the table: "Shopkeeper, you dare to look down on me Song Asan!"
Those who can go out and travel far away and eat in a hotel are basically infinitely sour. Poor sour go out, that's the rhythm of being a beggar, you can't enter this door.
These people are toiling and have a great need for meat.
You must know that in this world, all kinds of nutritional supplements are extremely scarce, mainly relying on eating meat to grow strength and replenish qi and blood.
The crowd was surging, and the shopkeeper hurriedly called out to hit the sky: "Ladies and gentlemen, let Xiao Lao'er say a few words." The old man of the family has been doing things recently, and the meat is tight, and there is no meat to sell in the store for several days. This roe deer was collected by the boy himself from the Orion and made to be processed and eaten by the shop. ”
As soon as they said this, everyone was discouraged, but they just glanced at Chen Tang's table one by one, and some people couldn't help but swallow their saliva.
Chen Tang didn't expect such a situation to happen, eating alone, making the public angry, if he had known, he would have directly let Xiao Erduan eat in the room, so as not to cause trouble.
"This brother, please!"
That Zihan walked over and bowed his hand: "In Xia Fan Yuan, the word Zihan is Qinzhou's son." I look at my brother's platform, could it be that he also went to Beijing to catch the exam?"
Having said that, I was very suspicious in my heart, after all, seeing Chen Tang dressed up and having no entourage, he really didn't look like a man.
Chen Tang replied: "In Xia Chen Tang, the word 'Bu Jin' is from Panzhou." ”
Fan Yuan nodded very understandingly, and said with a smile: "Brother Bujin is a good mouthful, but there is a huge pot of meat, I'm afraid you won't be able to eat it alone." Let's discuss, how about you give me half of the price? ”
Chen Tang smiled: "I'm sorry, I have a big appetite, I want to eat more meat, please Brother Fan take care of it." ”
Along the way, he ate a good meal of meat in Yuruo County, and he was very greedy. If he really can't eat it, it's easy to say, the key is that with his current appetite, there is no problem with eating four catties of meat in his stomach.
Saying that, raise chopsticks to eat meat, eat quickly, and go back to the room to rest.
Fan Yuan didn't buy meat, so he was very displeased, sat back, and snorted coldly: "This son doesn't know people's feelings, I'll see how he can eat so much meat." ”
I really just stared at it.
Another son, Fan Xuan, looked amused and shook his head, but smelling the fragrance of roe deer meat, and eating some bamboo shoots and tofu, the taste is the same as chewing wax, which is very rare.
Chen Tang ate meat in large pieces, the juice was dripping, and the wind was whirling, and after a while, two-thirds of the big pot of meat was gone.
When Fan Yuan saw it, he was a little dumbfounded: "This son is so edible?"
Fan Xuan frowned and said, "Could it be that he is practicing martial arts...... It doesn't look like ......."
After a while, Chen Tang finished his work, ate and drank enough, asked the shopkeeper to get hot water, and after some washing, he cleaned up, lit the oil lamp, and began to read.
It was dark outside the window, and it was night.
Above the town, at the intersection of some streets, lanterns were raised, in black and white letters, with a big word "Lay" written on them.
In the Dharma field not far away, there is the sound of gongs and suona, mixed with the chanting of practical things, mixed together.
Chen Tang was inexplicably confused, and he couldn't calm down, and his mind couldn't help but think of the situation in the Jidi Academy, which was extremely treacherous.
In fact, he stayed in it for a short time, and because of the shortness, many situations did not have time to observe and think, and then came out.
Chen Tang always felt that this matter would not be so simple to pass.
Could it be that something is going to happen tonight?
He put down the scroll and stood in front of the window to look out. The windows are not big, and the view from the location is not good, only a small area can be seen outside.
It had just rained heavily during the day, and the weather looked gloomy, with no stars and moons in sight.
"Woo woo woo ......"
Suddenly, there was a sound of crying, and the crying was quiet.
The source of the sound is in the corner below this inn, and I don't know who is choking up and crying there.
Could it be the family of the rich and good people?
No, if it's a family member, they will definitely go to the court to cry and mourn, so how can they hide here?
Chen Tang sat back at the table and spread out the four treasures of the study, since you can't meditate when you read, you can try to write, which is also a good way.
I sharpened the ink with a frog inkstone, and began to write a book, writing a "Relief of Worries".
After writing a few lines, the crying outside still did not stop, and some of the residents became impatient and shouted: "The people of the Wu Na family are crying here endlessly, so it makes people irritable." ”
Listening to his voice, it should be the strong man with a knife, Song Asan.
Knives, guns and other instruments have always been controlled, especially in the state capital, there will be checks when entering and leaving, and long knives and large guns are prohibited from carrying. However, in the suburbs, or above the county towns and towns, the control is much more relaxed.
Song Asan drank it, it was really useful, and the crying suddenly stopped.
However, after only a quarter of an hour or so, the crying resumed, louder than before, mixed with incoherent cries and what seemed to be cursing.
"Damn it!"
Song Asan couldn't bear it, pushed open the window, jumped over, not to mention falling silently, but also quite light, he strode towards the corner, and scolded in his mouth: "In the middle of the night, I cried non-stop, so I didn't let people sleep." ”
By the faint light, it could be seen that there was a figure in the corner cowering there, very short.
Song Asan is a martial artist with a hot temperament, and he was already upset by this cry, so he immediately stretched out his big hand to grab the other party's collar and pull it over.
As soon as I grabbed it, I suddenly felt that something was wrong, because it was too light.
It's fluttering, like a paper figure.
He was stunned for a moment, and when he got closer, wasn't it a paper figure?
The body is woven with bamboo chips, pasted with pieces of paper on the outside, and then the color of the clothes, the appearance of the facial features, the eyebrows are thin, the mouth and nose are prepared, and the black hair is painted.
"Bad luck!"
Song Asan scolded and was about to throw it away.
Suddenly, he saw the paper figure grinning at him, and his smile was ......
