After the fragrant fried whole scorpion was served, Xiao Maitreya and Xiao Qingfeng took the lead in eating a few, and everyone stretched out their chopsticks one after another. Immediately, I was aroused by the taste of this dry fragrance, and began to push the cup and change the lamp, and drank happily.

After the doll ate seven or eight fried whole scorpions in a row, she tasted the fragrance in her mouth and muttered: "Don't say it, this is the first time I have eaten scorpions, I didn't expect the taste to be so delicious and so powerful, I'm afraid I can eat a big plate myself, hehehehe......"

Mengshan Turtle said: "It's not, it's the first time I've eaten like this, it turns out that it's just used to make wine, and I really haven't dared to eat like this." I thought that the stinger behind its tail would prick people, and if it didn't get it right, it would be poisoned. ”

Laughing Maitreya said: "You are a layman, as long as the wild scorpion is cleaned and choked to death with salt water, it will be directly drained and fried, and its toxicity will disappear naturally after frying, and there is no need to cut off the stinger behind it at all." This fried whole scorpion is definitely a famous dish in our Shandong, which is not only rich in high protein, but also has high nourishing value. ”

The doll complained, "I should have known that after the Red Stone Ditch repaired those bastards who didn't know whether they were alive or dead, I shouldn't have let go of all the big bottles and scorpions they caught." I brought back a bottle and fried it slowly, alas, what a pity. ”

At this time, after listening to the doll talk about "those bastards who don't know whether to live or die", the boss suddenly came to his senses, first raised his wine glass and toasted everyone, then leaned forward and said happily: "What's the matter, I heard this little sister inadvertently say just now, you seem to have met those bastard boys in Hongshigou?"

Xiao Qingfeng said: "Yes, old brother, we have encountered them, and not only that, they also want to be presumptuous to us." Don't you say I really forgot, I was trying to ask my brother about the origin of these guys, how do I think these guys don't look like our locals?"

The owner of the hotel smiled and said, "They still want to be presumptuous to you and the cold-faced judge, so dare they are mixed up here, hehehe." To tell you the truth, Brother Qingfeng, you also know that my brother and I were not a fuel-efficient thing in the early years, I have long seen that they are not pleasing to the eye, but I have not found a chance to clean them up, now it's okay, as soon as you make a move, my anger will also be eliminated. Let's go one more, and I'll talk to you guys about this drink. Saying that, he raised his glass and did it first as a respect, and everyone drank the wine in the glass slowly.

The owner of the hotel wiped his mouth and said happily: "Damn, these boys are indeed not from our area, but they were all recruited from outside by the bastard son of my village secretary." You probably all know that the bastard son of the village secretary is just like his father, and it's not a fucking good thing. On the surface, he works in a municipal company, and he is a manager with five or six people all day long, but he doesn't know that he is really a public servant who keeps to himself. In fact, he is doing mischief behind his back, from undertaking subcontracted projects to buying and selling, and doing all kinds of bad things. ”

After a slight pause, he continued: "The guys you are talking about are the rotten boys he recruited from outside in the past two years, and they are all ruffians and hooligans with criminal records. They are kept by him in an abandoned processing factory in front of the mountain north of the village on weekdays, and when they need it, they will do some bad things for him to smash and scare people. These boys rely on him to support them, and in the past two years, they have done a lot of bad things in this vicinity, and many people in the village have been bullied by them, but most of them dare not speak out. This is not since last year, I have been worried about the red stone ditch in the ravine, and I insist that it was contracted by them, and no outsiders are allowed to go inside, otherwise it will be a good fight, and if it is not good, I will have to pay them some money to finish the job. ”

The doll said: "Then no one cares about them, isn't it over if you call the police and arrest them?" ”

The owner of the hotel said with a smile: "What's the use of calling the police, don't say that these boys from the police station don't do much, even if they are arrested, they will not be released again in a few days." Who let someone behind the family support it, how can there be any fucking truth or falsehood these days. Not to mention anything else, even I have come here to eat the overlord meal five or six times, and once if it hadn't been for the obstruction in my house, I would have given them some blood on the cooked skins. Alas, if this person is old, his courage will become smaller!"

The dumb man looked at the somewhat depressed hotel owner, and said with a smile: "Except for Brother Qingfeng, you may not know that this old brother was also a short-tempered person back then. Twenty or thirty years ago, in our area, who didn't know that he could kill dogs and sheep with his eyes closed, and he wouldn't even ruin a little bit of skin. And the famous heroic and righteous, when he was young, he could really stick a knife in his friend's ribs, just because Taijianghu was also invited to study in it a few times. ”

The owner of the restaurant laughed, and then said: "Okay, okay, those are the old yellow calendars of the past, and I was just a bastard butcher who flayed dogs and slaughtered sheep." It's like your judge, brother, who is a well-known cold-faced god on YZ Road, and which buddy who is dripping on the road hears your name, isn't so scared that he retreats and runs away. I'm not afraid of their jokes, even my brother and I saw that your wrists were weak, hahaha......"

The doll said: "I said you two half-cut old men, don't praise each other here, my teeth are sore when I hear it." By the way, brother, you should continue to give us the scorpion minister in your village, just on the way to your place just now, we met a strange man who learned to walk upright with a scorpion, and I don't know if it's him. ”

After hearing this, the hotel owner's expression immediately became serious, he thought about it, and said seriously: "Yes, the strange man you saw is the minister who is called the Scorpion Minister. Some of the earlier things are also clear to Brother Qingfeng, so I won't repeat them again. In fact, he has been missing for more than ten years, and everyone says that he may have died outside, or was taken in by some state agency. But just over four or five months ago, he suddenly appeared near the village again, and not only did his original strange appearance not change, but even his original appearance did not change significantly. Speaking of which, he must have been sixty, but now it seems that he is still in his forties, and he does not look old. It's just that he looks even more crazy than before, and he doesn't recognize people at all. ”

After a slight pause, he continued: "To tell you the truth, he and I are still uncles and brothers, and when I heard that he was nearby again, I went to look for him. When I recognized him and brought him back for a good meal, before I could wash him and change his clothes, he shoved me away, and then left with his peculiar posture as if he had not been impressed by me in the whole process. When I saw him like this, I had no choice but to shake my head helplessly and let him go. Not to mention, he wandered around me a few times at night, and each time I forced him in to get him some clean food to eat and drink, and then he walked away without saying a word. ”

Speaking of which, he seemed to be a little choked up when he was still in high spirits just now, it seems that this person is really a temperamental person, just like the dumb man said.

Xiao Qingfeng looked at the hotel owner who was talking about emotion, patted him lightly on the shoulder with his hand, and said, "Come, old brother will take one." As he spoke, he picked up his glass, touched him lightly, and then drank it himself.

After putting down the wine glass, Xiao Qingfeng continued: "In fact, who can really see through the things in this world, let's ignore whether this scorpion minister has become like this, whether it is related to his wanton killing and destroying the natural ecology." Let's just say that his current madness must not be the best destination and relief, as the ancients said - everyone laughs at me for being crazy, and I pity the world for their dreams!"

Jingxin raised his glass and said, "Okay, a good sentence, 'Everyone laughs at me, and I pity the world for their dreams'! After finishing speaking, he changed his previous reserve and drank all the liquor in the cup in one gulp. Everyone also responded and drank the liquor in the glass one after another.

The owner of the hotel seemed to be stimulated by Xiao Qingfeng's words like electricity, and after drinking the toast of wine, he turned around and shouted at his wife in the back room: "I said that the house is in the house, hurry up and stew the hare they sent in the afternoon, and make a few side dishes to accompany the wine, I am happy today, I must invite these good friends to have a hearty drink!" The proprietress in the back room responded crisply, and hurriedly got busy again.

After Xiao Qingfeng listened, he didn't say anything, but just gave Jingxin a hint with his eyes, and Jingxin quickly got up and entered the kitchen.

When he got to the kitchen, Jing Xin first closed the door, then took out three hundred yuan from his pocket, stuffed it into the hands of the proprietress, and said in a low voice: "Old sister-in-law, everyone is not easy, everything needs capital, we didn't bring much cash with us in a hurry, whether this money is enough or not is a meaning, you must accept it." Otherwise, we really wouldn't dare to come back in the future. ”

The proprietress was polite for a while, and when she heard Jingxin say this, she smiled honestly and accepted it unceremoniously. Jingxin asked if she needed a hand, and she hurriedly asked Jingxin to go back quickly, saying that she could do it alone. Jing Xin was no longer polite, and turned back to the wine table.

After drinking for a while, the proprietress gave a few dishes in a row, such as cold salad three silks, spicy fried fat sausages, oily cabbage, sour and hot green and red silks, and finally brought a large pot of steaming spicy hares. The boss greeted everyone with a red face and started a new round of wine tasting.
