Chapter 962: Eat Some Meat
The proprietress frowned: "Xia Family Immortal Master? β
That Xia family immortal master, as one of the few successful people, is also very famous in the ferry gate.
Xia Mingyuan figured all this out, and grabbed the hand of the proprietress: "Little sister, please help me, my grandfather is also a ferryman, then we are a family!" β
I didn't see how the proprietress made her hand, but I saw that Xia Mingyuan's hand seemed to be electrocuted, so she raised it.
Sure enough, the proprietress said coldly: "Good intentions, no matter what the reason, outsiders are never allowed to enter the ferry gate." β
This made Xia Mingyuan very discouraged, and I was also disappointed - I couldn't enter the ferry door, how could I find Yuxu's hand to rejuvenate Lu to treat white herbs?
However, the way to enter the door can still be imagined, and at the moment, this strange thing eats people is imminent.
I then asked the proprietress "Then you have been chasing for so long, do you know what the original body of that strange thing is?" β
The proprietress shook her head: "It's useless to tell you, that thing is good at camouflage and changes, and it won't appear in the form of a metabody, but there is something a little strange." β
"What?"
The proprietress looked in the direction of the fire in the house: "That strange thing, like you, seems to be looking for the entrance to the ferry gate." β
Cheng Xinghe frowned: "What do you mean, what is it doing at the ferry gate?" Isn't that the same as a mouse breaking into a cat's nest and dying? β
Dumb Balan replied: "It would be good if it went in, there are so many high-ranking people at the ferry gate, wouldn't it be caught with their hands tied?" β
That's a Jiudan spiritual thing, who said it well, if you get mixed in and make a big mess, who is responsible?
Everything has a reason, and I only know when I find that thing.
At this time, there were already a lot of locals at the doorβthey heard that we were catching demons here, and they all wanted to see how things were going.
Hearing that there was still no news, everyone sighed in disappointment: "When will that thing be caught?" β
"If it goes on like this, when will it be a leader!"
The child who has no father also wants to talk, but his body is crooked, and he almost doesn't lie down.
I hurriedly supported him, and then I realized that the child was having a high fever.
That's right. I was so frightened yesterday, and I haven't rested, so it's normal to be sick.
At this moment, the black plaster also came over: "It's not interesting for a child to live, if he is sick, he is better, and being a companion on his father's Huangquan Road is better than living and suffering by himself." β
you everywhere.
I just wanted to speak, but Cheng Xinghe said, "You understand, then why didn't you have your parents together?" β
The corner of the black plaster's mouth twitched: "I, I...... Don't change your concept and say that children, how can you pull it on me. β
Don't know who is cheap?
But the child is like this, how can we find someone to take care of it, we also have to track down the ghost fire monster, the doppelganger is not skilled, and there is no way to take care of the child.
At this time, the old man with the deaf and dumb bun came out of the crowd and gestured for the child to go back with him.
The child also likes the deaf and dumb old man, so he goes away.
The deaf and dumb old man carried the child on his back, and the thin figure disappeared into the night step by step.
It was a very heartwarming scene β it reminded me of the time when I had a fever when I was a child, and the old man carried me to the health center.
I still had to find clues, so I simply squatted in the hall to see if there were any clues left by the spirit creature just now.
Dumb Baran, they also followed to look for it, but with a "bright sound", a jar was knocked over, as if a lot of things had been spilled.
"Huh?" Dumb Balan grabbed a piece and leaned under the lamp: "This is ......"
I followed Dumb Balan's hand and frownedβbones!
Moreover, on the bones, there are dense and tooth marks!
"It's a five-spice crispy bone!" The hostess said, "Local specialty. β
It turns out that this kind of bone is smoked and roasted from beef bones, with a meaty aroma, used to grind teeth, although it has a meat taste, but it is much cheaper than meat, drink some wine, suck the oil of crispy bones, and can barely drink wine.
This is the way the poor eat β just like the miser family we met before, watching salted fish for dinner.
Maybe people who live a good life don't believe that in this era, there are still people who live like this - only dogs in the city don't eat this.
But the poor really have their own way of living.
When the bones are sucked, they are stored in the jar, and if they save more, they can boil a pot of bone broth together.
A local saw it, sighed, and said that the child's father had no other hobbies, and he loved to eat some meat all his life, and he saved a little bone.
Another local said, in fact, those who do manual work like to eat meat, for example, Zhang Xiaosan, who also has such a jar at home, and he died and went to the cemetery.
My ears were pointed: "That Zhang Xiaosan is also a victim of the ghost fire **?" β
"yes!" Those locals hurriedly said: "Many people love to eat meat and can't afford to eat it, hey, don't say it, isn't Ma Sizi too!" β
"Zhou Laoqi too."
Could it be ...... I stood up and looked at Cheng Xinghe - those ghost fire ** people, what they have in common is not just fire.
Another point, is that you particularly fond of meat?
Is that really the case......
I immediately asked, "Where did you buy these bones?" β
"It used to be an old horse lane selling meat." The locals replied, "But now, the old horse is dead, and there is no one to sell it." β
That means ......
I immediately stood up and ran outside.
The proprietress was stunned: "Why are you going?" β
Cheng Xinghe and Dumb Balan had already caught up: "He saw the real murderer!" β
The proprietress was stunned for a moment, and immediately ran over with me.
I've always been very recognizant, and when I pass by the village during the day, I remember that house...... That's right, this is it.
I kicked the door open.
The deaf and dumb old man had just put the child on the bed.
As soon as there was a knock on the door, he jerked back, gesticulated, and asked what we were going to do.
I looked at him, "Can you hear the voice now?" β
The face of the deaf and dumb old man changed suddenly.
