Chapter 167 Human meat buns can't be eaten
The second day.
Early in the morning, it was not yet bright...
Su Jing was already yawning and stretching his lazily, and got off the upstairs.
Just his pace was slow, he looked like he was not awake, and he was really tired.
"Yo... Master, you are awake."
The shopkeeper was calculating the account book behind the counter. Seeing the financial owner going downstairs yesterday, he immediately had a flattering smile on his face and said, "Callant, do you have any instructions?"
"I didn't have any other instructions. I was originally planning to visit an elder in the Tang Dynasty, but I didn't expect to get lost in the desert and wasted a lot of time. When I got here, I basically used up all the dry food, so... I want to ask you, where should I go if I buy some clean dry food in the basin?"
Su Jing deliberately bit the word "clean", and the meaning is self-evident!
The shopkeeper hesitated: "Uh... are you going in person?"
Su Jing smiled proudly and said, "Of course it's not my turn to go on weekdays. There are servants to do it. But now, after rushing through the desert for a few days, I've been furious for a long time. Yesterday, it was too hot. The girls were so tired that they couldn't get up. Who would I go? You go? This place... I didn't buy it myself, so I'm really worried. I've always done a good job of pitying the beauty."
"Hehehe... The young master is invincible, and the old man admires it! I admire it... If you buy dry food, go out from here, go east, and find a store with the big banner of the word "Wang". It is the largest grain shop in our basin. It has all kinds of pastries and dry food, and it is absolutely safe. You can buy it there."
The shopkeeper looked around and then quietly approached Su Jing's ear and said, "Young Master first came to the basin. Maybe he didn't know that although it was very chaotic in the basin, there were a few places that were absolutely safe, or in other words, no one dared to cause trouble in it... Wang Family Grain Shop is one of them. It is said that they are the Wang family's industry. Even if the basin is not under the jurisdiction of the Three Kingdoms, they are not afraid of the nobles, but they dare not offend those real nobles?!"
"Wang Family? Which Wang Family?"
Su Jing said in surprise: "Is it the Wang family of the Qin general Wang?"
The shopkeeper said: "The Wang family is naturally powerful, but here, I'm afraid it doesn't have that great prestige... It's the Wang family in Taiyuan!"
"People from the Tang Dynasty?"
"good!"
"So that's it. It's a good thing to do with the backstage. Thank you for the shopkeeper."
Su Jing threw down a silver ingot, turned around and walked out, taking two steps, as if he had recalled something, and said lightly: "Also, shopkeeper, my girls were so overworked yesterday, and they are still sleeping peacefully. Give me some instructions, don't let the waiter disturb them, and later, you will get a reward for you."
"Oh, the old man has written it down. By the way, guest officer..."
"What's wrong?"
“Don’t you eat in the store?”
"No, just go out and eat something casually. Is there any problem?"
"There is no other problem, just the shops in the east of the small shop have a lot of food in it... You must not eat it."
The shopkeeper looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to this place, and then he whispered: "It is said that the ingredients inside are not clean, especially the buns, which are not enough to eat."
"Okay, I remember, thank you."
Su Jing turned around and walked out of the inn.
At this time, the sky was still clear and the sun had not yet come out. The whole street was covered by a gray mist. A little further away, I saw shadows walking around like zombies.
It seems that I got up earlier, and there are fewer people passing by around than yesterday, but the shops on both sides have already opened... They are all waving their own flags, and they are offering books, iron or doctors... It is very eye-catching!
The shopkeeper's words may not be true, maybe they just want to grab the business... But since they said so, Su Jing naturally had no interest in trying the so-called human meat buns or something.
Turn around and walk eastward.
As he walked, he looked around left and right.
I saw a carriage walking slowly on the street in an orderly manner. Several figures jumped off and ran towards the narrow alley, and then ran out in a trot. The two of them carried corpses into a carriage. It seemed that the bodies of the loser who had a conflict yesterday and then went to the alley to resolve the problem.
The carriage was moving slowly along the way, and even those people ran to each alley in an orderly manner. Some alleys were empty, while others could drag out four or five corpses. Just after Su Jing watched for a while, more than ten corpses were carried onto the carriage, and the corpses were covered with completely solidified blood. It seemed that they had been dead for a while.
Su Jing knew it instantly!
The job of these people is to deal with the corpses. It looks so terrifying, but the shops around seemed to care at all. Some even smiled and greeted them a few words... It seems that Su Jing recalled that in his previous life, every morning, a garbage truck would take all the garbage accumulated for a day into the car.
The same works!
But this garbage is human life!
Seeing these people just passing by themselves, it seemed like they couldn't see them... And when they passed by the carriage, Su Jing clearly saw that in the carriage, not all of them were piled up like a hill, and there was also a living person, who seemed to be checking whether there were still people alive.
Then he stabbed into a person who seemed to be still alive, and blood gushed, and the man died instantly.
Looking at the one who greeted the corpse collectors just now, it seemed that the family was selling buns. Su Jing couldn't help but have a cold war, and his steps suddenly got a little faster and walked towards the destination in the distance!
He is not afraid of death, but this is instinctive disgusting and irresistible.
It took about a stick of incense to leave.
In front, I finally saw a flag waving in the wind blowing with the breeze, with four big words written on it, Wangjia Food Shop.
It seems that it's here.
Su Jing walked in, but there was a large and active hall inside, with organized tables and stools like a canteen. Several people were drinking porridge inside... It seemed that it was deserted, and it should have been the peak period for meals.
Just now, a friend came over there and said respectfully: "What do you want to order, sir?"
Do you still sell breakfast part-time here?
Su Jing said: "The food... needs to be good and clean."
"Oh, wait a moment, come now!"
The guy ran down quickly.
Su Jing found a remote corner and sat down. After a while, the guy had already delivered a few stacks of pickles, a plate of buns and a bowl of cooked sticky millet porridge.
Su Jing's throat moved. Looking at the bun, he didn't dare to take action. The scene he just saw was full of psychological shadows.
He picked up the millet porridge and took a sip, and asked, "My man, pack some delicious dry food for me. I want to leave the basin and go to Datang..."
"Hey, I understand, you'll get to the Tang Dynasty, right? You'll pack enough dry food for a small journey."
"There are also desserts, it doesn't matter whether they are tolerant or not. They are reserved for these two days..."
Thinking of the appearance of several women, girls should all love snacks, right?
"I understand! Use it slowly. If you are a little girl, go to the backend to clean up for you and ensure that you will be delivered before you use it!"
Su Jing nodded and asked casually: "By the way, I just saw someone throwing a body into the carriage..."
"Oh? You said that, that's from the corpse collector team. The work is a bit dirty, but the income is very high. At least, it's much higher than the smaller one. Unfortunately, the younger one doesn't have the courage to do this, otherwise they will do it too."
The guy said: "The basin is too chaotic. Basically, many people will die every day. If you don't care, the corpses will soon smell. At that time, there will be corpses everywhere in the basin, so where can they stay? So several bosses in the basin will pay a fixed amount of money to create this corpse collection team. This is also a feature of our basin."
As he said that, the guy laughed.
"Well, I understand. You can go down, be quicker, your reward is indispensable."
"Okay, thank you, the guest!"
As he said that, the guy ran down and prepared.
Chapter completed!
