Chapter 5
……

Xu Fei gulped down several bowls of tea.

He said hoarsely, "Boss, these customers are so enthusiastic."

"It's so enthusiastic, I don't dare to come tomorrow!"

Hearing this, the owner of the snack shop panicked a little, and hurriedly said, "Don't, don't, don't!"

"If you don't come tomorrow, those customers will not demolish my shop."

Xu Fei sighed and said helplessly, "Boss, listen to my voice!"

"If I say that again tomorrow, I may lose my voice the day after tomorrow!"

But the owner of the snack bar seems to have been prepared.

He took out a small porcelain bottle from his bosom, and said triumphantly to Xu Fei, "What do you think this is?"

Xu Fei took the small porcelain bottle, opened the cap, put it in front of his nostril and smelled it.

A sense of coolness, from the nasal cavity, through the throat, straight into the lungs.

Moaned freely: "Ah~"

Curiously looking at the contents of the bottle, I saw small black pills, about the size of a fingernail, inside.

"what is this?"

The owner of the snack shop smiled and explained to Xu Fei: "This is my ancestral medicine to clear throat!"

"In the past, my ancestors walked around the alleys, yelling and selling goods."

"It's all because of it that I can keep the sound bright all the time!"

"Take out a piece, put it in your mouth, and try it!"

Hearing this, Xu Fei took out a pill from the porcelain bottle, pinched it on his fingertips, and licked it with the tip of his tongue.

It's cool, aftertaste, and a little sweet.

Can't taste anything else, but with the strong mint fragrance, Xu Fei can be sure that there is a lot of mint in the formula of the pill.

Put it in your mouth and put it on your tongue to catch it.

A sense of coolness burst out in the mouth instantly.

The hot and dry feeling in the throat disappeared instantly, replaced by a cold feeling.

"Ah~"

The extreme comfort made Xu Fei groan happily.

The owner of the snack bar, seeing Xu Fei's satisfied expression, said proudly, "How is it?"

"My ancestral formula is really easy to use!"

"En!", Xu Fei nodded fiercely, expressing his affirmation.

The owner of the snack bar turned sideways, and took a package of wrapped food from the table beside him, and handed it to Xu Fei: "Here, take it!"

Xu Fei took it with both hands, squeezed it a little harder, and guessed by his feeling that there should be three vegetable pancakes inside.

I opened a slit and looked, but found that not only that, there was actually a chicken paw inside:

"Boss, this~"

Seeing Xu Fei's puzzled expression, the owner of the snack bar thought he saw the meat and couldn't believe it.

Just smiled and said: "I reward you, you don't need to thank you, you deserve it."

After hearing this sentence, Xu Fei smiled hypocritically to ease the embarrassment at the moment:

A chicken paw with only a little bit of meat, is it true that the man has never eaten meat?

Before yesterday, when he ordered takeaway, all the meat in the dish was picked out.

The clear green vegetables are much more delicious than greasy meat!

"thank you!"

"I said it all, no thanks!"

Seen off by the owner of the snack bar, Xu Fei left his shop.

Before leaving, he asked again and again, and agreed to come back tomorrow.

On the way back to the wasteland.

Xu Fei held food in his left hand, and a money bag in his right hand, which contained the rewards he got for storytelling today, a total of 23 copper coins.

These 23 copper plates are neither too much nor too little.

One copper plate can be exchanged for two vegetable pancakes.

Vegetable pancakes are very filling, and they are very hungry.

Xu Fei also didn't know what kind of grain was used to beat this pancake into powder, mix it with wild vegetables, and steam it?

Anyway, he ate one today, and he still doesn't feel hungry yet.

Originally, Xu Fei didn't want to go back to live in that dilapidated little courtyard.

But I really can't stand the shyness in my pocket. With 23 copper coins in my hand, the place I can afford to live in this small mountain village is not as good as a deserted courtyard!
As for the only inn in the village, Xu Fei went there.

As soon as the Datong shop opened the door, he was immediately persuaded to leave.

Good guy, it's the same as entering the dry toilet in my hometown, not only the smell is unbearable, but also it is really hot on the eyes.

Forced to do so, Xu Fei had no choice but to buy some things and go back to the wilderness courtyard.

Hurry up and hurry up, still didn't return to the deserted courtyard before dark, but it was close.

It was getting dark, and although the light from the lantern Xu Fei bought was dim, it could barely illuminate the road.

"Three Kingdoms warriors are brave, Zhao Zilong is the first to be the hero, and Changbanpo is the hero."

"And that Zhang Yide, roaring on the Dangyang Bridge..."

"..."

Walking alone at night is indeed a little scary.

The ordinary songs sung in the mouth did not work at all, and could not dispel the fear in my heart.

Xu Fei had no choice but to sing the red song again:

"...Build our flesh and blood into a new Great Wall..."

"... Brave the enemy's artillery fire, advance..."

Sure enough, as soon as "March of the Volunteers" came out, the darkness in Xu Fei's heart was instantly dispelled.

Due to the faster pace under his feet, he quickly returned to the location of the wilderness courtyard.

Wade through the overgrown weeds and enter the house that can barely shelter from the wind and rain.

After gently wiping off the dust on the table, Xu Fei put down the things in his hands.

Turning his head to look at the empty door frame, he decided to lift the door panel up to block the big hole and prevent any beasts from entering at night.

Since he needed to lift the door panel with both hands, Xu Fei put the lantern in his hand on the ground.

With the help of the faint light emitted by the lantern, and the moonlight illuminated by the crescent moon in the sky.

Carefully, he groped to lift the left door panel first, barely leaning against the door frame.

Just when Xu Fei was about to lift the door panel on the right.

I tripped over something under my feet.

With the force of throwing the door panel, he staggered a few steps and managed not to fall down.

"Hey, hello~"

"what?"

It's a bit like a stick, but it seems a little soft.

Take the lantern and examine the past carefully.

"I'm going~"

Under the light, in the grass, there was actually a human leg with blood splashing on it.

He took a few steps back, squatted down, picked up a piece of wood, and stared ahead defensively.

After a few minutes.

Xu Fei boldly took a few steps forward, and slowly approached the bloody leg.

He poked it with the wood in his hand, and after finding no response, Xu Fei approached more boldly.

The wooden stick pushed through the grass, only to find that it was a person lying there.

Pass the lantern in his hand to his face, and observe.

A man in his thirties, with an unshaven face and part of his curled hair was loose.

Moved the lantern down, and found that his chest was still rising and falling slightly.

This person is not dead yet!
Thinking about how to deal with it?
In Xu Fei's mind, thoughts began to float: Is this person a bad person?

Will there be any trouble if I save him?
What if he wakes up and turns his back on him?
Will you blackmail me?
