Chapter 252: Roast Chicken
Business is good tonight, and more than 20 strings of rock sugar gourds have been sold. A smile gradually appeared on the face of the pen & fun & pavilion www.biquge.info vendor, and his eyes fell on the roast chicken stall not far away, because his children liked to eat roast chicken the most, and as long as they sold five more skewers, they would have money to buy a roast chicken and go home. Thinking of the happy appearance of the child who opened the door and saw the roast chicken in his hand, the vendor's tired body suddenly relaxed a lot.
His eyes began to search around again, and suddenly he saw a child who was crying, and his eyes lit up and he knew that business was coming. A crying child like this doesn't have to look at the adult's clothes at all, just take the most expensive crystal grape rock sugar gourd. In order to make the child stop crying, adults can only obediently pay for it.
I have been selling rock sugar gourds for seven or eight years, and I am full of experience. So he pushed the cart and ran to the child, took a bunch of crystal grapes and rock sugar gourds as quickly as possible and stuffed them into the child's hands. When the child saw the delicious food, he went up and took a bite, sweet and sour, and his lips and teeth were fragrant, and he immediately stopped crying.
But the adults around him were dumbfounded, and the peddler stood up and looked at the ragged man in front of him. Although he knew that this person was very poor, he also felt a little unbearable in his heart, but in order to buy a roast chicken for his child, he still stretched out his hand.
The rock sugar gourd of this bunch of crystal grapes is usually only sold for three cents, but the child has already taken a bite, and even if the adult does not want to buy it, there is no way. I only heard the hawker say, "Five cents." ”
"So expensive?" the man was obviously frightened by the sky-high price of rock sugar gourds.
The peddler didn't speak, but kept his hand outstretched. The man frowned, looked down at the child eating Zhengxiang, and his childish face was full of happiness. The man gritted his teeth and took out the only five cents he had and put it in the vendor's hand, picked up the child and left.
The vendor weighed the copper coin in his hand and stuffed it into his pocket with satisfaction.
I only heard the man in front of me say, "Is it delicious?"
"Well, it's delicious, but it's delicious, do you want to eat one?"
"Daddy doesn't eat it, if it's delicious, you can eat it quickly. There was also a happy look on the man's face, but there was a trace of sadness in the corner of his eye. Maybe his wife knows that he spent five cents to buy a string of rock sugar gourds, and he will be nagged all night.
The vendor closed the stall, walked to the roast chicken stall, took out the copper coins in his pocket, and placed them on the board one by one.
"Here's a roast chicken!" he said proudly, even a little proudly. Only at this time would a person at the bottom of his life have the courage to be arrogant to others, but he still added, "Pick the biggest one!"
The owner of the roast chicken stall first put away the money, counted it twice, and muttered in his heart: Isn't it just a roast chicken, what a poor ghost is. I didn't know that I was a poor ghost like a peddler.
After packing a roast chicken and handing it to the vendor, although he looked down on him in his heart, he still flattered: "I will come often in the future." ”
The laughter is fake, even disgusting. The vendor also knew that the boss was smirking, but he still straightened his chest and said proudly: "Don't worry, there will definitely be two next time." "Put the roast chicken on the cart and push the cart in the direction of home.
The owner of the chicken stall continued to get busy, not noticing a yellow-fleshed bug lying on the board. The bugs opened their mouths, sticky liquid flowed from their teeth, and the board was burned with a small hole.
The wind rose again, and the insects flew into the sky with their wings fluttering.
In Li Dai's mansion, the Gu King stood in front of the pond that had already frozen, looking at the moonlit ice, a little impatient. Suddenly, I heard a slight sound in the air, and I knew that the "scout" I had sent out had returned.
Spread out your palms, and flesh-yellow bugs fall on it. With a "hiss" sound, the Gu King nodded, knowing that the time was ripe to make a move. Thinking about why this bug came back so late, couldn't it be that Qi Chu and them found out?
If that were the case, he would have to wait a few days, so he asked, "Did something happen halfway through?"
Hearing another "hiss" sound, the Gu King frowned and said, "What? The roast chicken looks delicious?"
"What! Rock sugar gourds are not bad, too?"
The Gu King almost fell into the pond, and heard the worm hissing again, "Okay, I'll treat you today." Then he grabbed the flesh-yellow insect and put it on his forearm, the insect opened its mouth, and the viscous liquid dripped on the Gu King's skin, and suddenly burned a small hole, and he could see the blood flowing in his arm.
The worm sticks its head into a small hole, and when it comes out, it has a very small flesh worm in its mouth. As the jagged teeth move back and forth, the flesh worm is cut into two pieces and swallowed into the stomach. The Gu King watched as the worm kept sticking its head into the small hole and grabbing the meat worm from his own blood, his face was unusually calm, because he had long been used to it.
This kind of meat worm is the only food for the worm, but now it is parasitic in the Gu King's body. For the process of such predation, the Gu King was actually very patient and waited. Until this "scout" was full, it lay on the hole in the Gu King's forearm, its tentacles slowly shortened, retracted its wings, and clinged to its skin. The color of the flesh is basically the same as that of the skin, if it weren't for careful observation, you would never have found this unknown insect on the Gu King's forearm.
He walked towards the place where Dongfang Yunfu lived, and this time he must be foolproof, because the opponent was Qi Chu. The one who can turn the tide at any time!
Thinking of the day when the Thirteen Sects of Ghost Gu were destroyed many years ago, his heart tightened more and more, except for fear or fear.
If the strength of one person can defeat a thousand people, can this person still be called a human being?
When he came to Dongfang Yunfu's door, if it wasn't for revenge this time, he would definitely not choose to cooperate with the people of East China Sea Dragon City. Because in his eyes, although the Northern Soul Burial Soul is ruthless, people like Dragon City in the East China Sea who secretly collude with the Wa Kingdom to betray the country for glory should be cut by a thousand knives.
He is a bad guy through and through, but this does not prevent him from deeply loving the land under his feet and the splendid mountains and rivers that slowly flow through the years.
"Can you do it?" said the voice of the Eastern Cloud Fu in the room. Since receiving the Dragon Emperor's order to keep Lan Ting's life, Dongfang Yunfu could completely choose not to cooperate with the Gu King. But he really wanted to see how the man got his revenge.
"Hmm"
The Gu King replied coldly, he didn't want to talk nonsense with this kind of person. If he can't speak, then he won't want to open his mouth for the rest of his life.
"Then go according to the plan. The voice was flat, because no matter whether the Gu King could succeed or not this time, Dongfang Yunfu knew that he would definitely succeed.
The Dragon Emperor's handwritten letter only wrote eight words: Spare him a life and cross him to become a demon!
Dongfang Yunfu still can't fully understand these eight words, but he also understands the general meaning, which is to force Lan Ting to a dead end.
