Chapter 167: Don’t Eat Human Meat Buns

The second day.

It's early in the morning, it's still dark...

Su Jing had already yawned, stretched lazily, and came down from upstairs.

He just dragged his feet and looked like he hadn't woken up. He was really tired.

"Hey... Sir, you're awake."

The shopkeeper was calculating the accounts behind the counter. When he saw yesterday's sponsor coming downstairs, he immediately put on a flattering smile on his face and said, "Sir, do you have any instructions?"

"I don't have any other instructions. I originally planned to go to the Tang Dynasty to visit an elder, but I didn't expect that I got lost in the desert and was delayed a lot of time. When I got here, I basically ran out of dry food. , so... I want to ask you, where should I go to buy some clean dry food in the basin? "

Su Jing deliberately bit the word "clean", the meaning is self-evident!

The shopkeeper hesitated and said: "Um... are you going in person?"

Su Jing smiled proudly and said: "Normally, it's not my turn to go. There are servants to take care of it. But now, after running around in the desert for a few days, I have been suffocating for a long time. Yesterday, I It's too much. None of the girls can get out of bed. If I don't go, who will? You go? This place... I didn't buy it myself. I don't care about this. I'm the master. Always done well.”

"Hehehehe... The young master is so brave, I admire him! I admire him... If you want to buy dry food, go out from here, go east, and look for the store with the big flag with the word "王" flying in front of the door. It is the largest food store in our basin. There are all kinds of pastries and dry foods, and they are absolutely safe. You can buy them there, sir.”

The shopkeeper looked around, then quietly whispered into Su Jing's ear and said: "Young master, when you first come to the basin, you may not know that although there is chaos in the basin, there are a few places that are absolutely safe, or Said, no one dares to cause trouble inside... The Wang Family Grain Store is one of them. It is said that they are the property of the Wang Family. Even though the river basin is not under the jurisdiction of the Three Kingdoms, they are not afraid of the nobles, but they dare not offend the real Tianhuang nobles. ?”

"Wang family? Which Wang family?"

Su Jing asked in surprise: "Could it be the Wang family of the Qin State General Wang?"

The shopkeeper said: "The Wang family is naturally powerful, but here, I'm afraid they don't have that much prestige... It's the Wang family in Taiyuan!"

"A person from the Tang Dynasty?"

"good!"

"I see, it's easy to have a backstage. Thank you very much, shopkeeper."

Su Jing threw down a piece of silver ingot, turned around and walked out. After taking two steps, he seemed to recall something and said lightly: "Also, shopkeeper, my girls were really overworked yesterday. They are still sleeping peacefully. Please tell me not to disturb them. I will reward you later."

"Oh, I have remembered it. By the way, guest..."

"What's wrong?"

"Aren't you going to eat in the store?"

"No, just go out and eat something. Is there any problem?"

"There are no other problems. There are a few stores to the east of the small shop. There are a lot of food in them...you must not go there to eat."

The shopkeeper looked around and saw that no one was paying attention, so he whispered: "It is said that the ingredients inside are not very clean, especially the steamed buns, which are inedible."

"Okay, I'll remember it, thank you."

Su Jing turned around and walked out, strolling out of the inn.

At this time, the sky was still clear and misty, the sun had not yet come out, and the entire street was shrouded in gray mist. A little further away, shadowy figures could be seen walking around, like zombies.

It seems that he got up a little earlier, and there were far fewer people passing by than yesterday, but the shops on both sides were already open...with their respective flags waving, and letters of food, iron, or medical treatment... Very eye-catching!

The shopkeeper's words may not be true, maybe he just wants to steal business... But since he said that, Su Jing is naturally not interested in trying the so-called human flesh buns.

Turn around and walk east.

As he walked, he looked around.

I saw a carriage walking slowly and orderly on the street. Several figures jumped out and ran towards the long and narrow alley, and then trotted out. Two people worked in pairs, carrying corpses to a The top of the carriage seemed to be the body of the loser who had a conflict yesterday and went to the alley to resolve it.

The carriage moved forward slowly, and the people with it also ran to each alley in an orderly manner. Some alleys were empty, and in others, four or five corpses could be dragged out. Su Jing could only look at them for a while. More than ten corpses were carried onto the carriage, and the corpses were covered with completely solidified blood. It looked like they had been dead for a while.

Su Jing understood instantly!

These people's job is to dispose of corpses. They look so scary, but the shopkeepers around them don't seem to care at all. Some even greet them with a smile... It seems that it reminds Su Jing of memories. In the previous life, every morning, a garbage truck would take all the garbage accumulated throughout the day into the truck.

Different approaches but similar results!

It’s just that these garbage are human lives!

Watching these people just passing by him, as if they couldn't see... And when passing the carriage, Su Jing could clearly see that not all of them were piled up inside the carriage. Xiaoshan's body, and a living person, seemed to be checking if anyone was still alive.

Then the knife was inserted into a person who seemed to be still alive. Blood spurted out and the person died instantly.

Seeing that the person who greeted the body collectors just now seemed to be a dumpling shop, Su Jing couldn't help but shudder, and suddenly walked a little faster, walking towards the destination in the distance!

He is not afraid of dead people, but this is instinctively disgusting and irresistible.

It took about as long as a stick of incense to walk.

In front, I finally saw a flag fluttering in the wind, with four big characters written on it, Wang's Food Shop.

It seems this is it.

Su Jing stepped in and found a large hall inside, with tables and stools arranged in an orderly manner like a canteen. Several people were drinking porridge inside... It seemed deserted. It must have been the peak of eating. Expect.

Just as we entered here, a waiter came over to greet us and said respectfully: "Sir, what would you like to order?"

Do you still sell breakfast part-time here?

Su Jingdao: "Eat... you have to eat good and clean food."

"Hey, wait a minute, it's coming!"

The man ran down quickly.

Su Jing found a remote corner and sat down. After a while, the waiter had brought several stacks of pickles, a plate of steamed buns and a bowl of sticky millet porridge.

Su Jing's throat moved. He looked at Baozi, but he didn't dare to make a move. The scene he just saw left a psychological shadow on him.

He took a sip of the millet porridge and asked: "Man, pack me some durable and delicious dry food. I want to leave the basin and go to Datang..."

"Hey, I understand, to Datang, right? It's a short journey, and you will pack enough dry food."

"There's also dessert, it doesn't matter if you can't bear it, I'll save it for the next two days..."

Thinking of the looks of these women, girls should all love snacks, right?

"Understood! Please use it slowly. The little one will go to the backstage to clean it up for you. I promise to deliver it before you use it up!"

Su Jingcheng nodded and asked seemingly casually: "By the way, I was outside just now and saw someone throwing a body into the carriage..."

"Oh? What are you talking about? They are from the corpse collection team. The work they do is a little dirty, but the income is very high. At least, it is much higher than the younger ones. It's a pity that the younger ones don't have the guts to do this, otherwise they would go there too. Done.”

The waiter said: "The watershed is too chaotic. Basically, many people die every day. If left alone, the corpses will soon stink. By then, there will be corpses everywhere in the watershed. Where can we stay? So, Several elders in the river basin will regularly contribute a sum of money to establish this corpse collection team. This can be regarded as a characteristic of our river basin. "

As he said that, the guy laughed.

"Well, I understand. You go down and be quick. Your reward will be indispensable."

"Okay, thank you sir!"

With that said, the guy ran down to get ready.

Su Jing slowly drank the porridge, sighing secretly in his heart, this is really a place that treats human life as nothing.
