Chapter 88 People’s Pain 1
The back kitchen was empty, and there was not much flour left in the bag. No wonder the shopkeeper wanted to go shopping. If he didn't buy the ingredients, he wouldn't be able to continue his business.

Yin Xi thought to herself that she saw only the innermost one of the two rows of stoves was emitting white smoke, so she walked over with a bowl to serve noodles. However, because there was only one candle lit in the kitchen, the light was so dark that Yin Xi could not see clearly where she was standing. , tripped over something, and the unprepared feeling of weightlessness made her yell out, and the bowl in her hand fell to the ground and broke into pieces.

Yin Xi's hand happened to rest on the fragments and was cut several times.

"Oh, what a bad luck," she said.

Hearing the noise, Yu Shi and Yin Guizhou hurried to the kitchen. However, Yin Guizhou was blind and had to rely on the surrounding breath and sounds to identify obstacles around him, so he moved slower than Yu Shi.

When Yu Shi rushed to the kitchen, Yin Xi was still sitting on the ground, digging in broken porcelain pieces in his hands under the dim firelight.

It was difficult to see clearly and it hurt. Yin Xi dug hard and finally got the last piece of debris out of the wound. Yu Shi appeared in front of her and said nervously: "Girl, what's wrong with you?"

When Yin Xi saw him coming, she just smiled bitterly and said, "I'm sorry, I got mixed up with something and broke the bowl in your store. I'll pay for the price of your bowl."

Yu Shi waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "It's just a bowl. It's worthless, but it's the girl's hand. The injury is not serious. You'd better go back and sit down quickly, and wait for me to get some golden sore medicine."

Yin Xi said: "Thank you very much."

But unexpectedly, Yin Guizhou stumbled into the kitchen at this moment and knocked over a bunch of pots and pans. The bowls on the floor were smashed one after another, and every corner of the kitchen was broken. Yin Guizhou was hit all over again like a headless chicken.

But the strange thing is that he, a blind man, touched the wall blindly for a long time, but he didn't knock himself down. He came to Yin Xi steadily and unsteadily all the way.

"Sister, what happened?" He asked with a pale face, then raised his hand casually and smashed the last remaining pots and bowls on the stove to the ground without missing a thing.

Yin Xi and Yu Shi looked at the mess all over the ground and looked at each other speechlessly.

"This girl" Yu Shi hesitated and spoke.

"I understand," Yin Xi sighed deeply: "I'd better compensate."

Yin Guizhou felt a hint of blood on Yin Xi's body. He stretched out his hand and carefully groped in front of Yin Xi, and asked worriedly: "Sister, where are you injured?"

Yin Xi thought: You hurt my fragile little wallet.

"I'm fine. I just tripped and broke the bowl, and then my hand got a few cuts from the broken porcelain. It's not serious." She stood up, patted the dirt on her body, and explained.

Yin Guizhou blamed himself: "It's all my fault. You had to eat the third bowl, otherwise you wouldn't have fallen down in the kitchen."

What he said was reasonable, but Yin Xi always sounded a little strange. After all, he was the one who asked Yin Guizhou to eat three bowls.

Then she heard Yin Guizhou ask in confusion: "What did sister trip over?"

Hearing this, Yin Xi also remembered this and looked around on the ground.

It's a pity that the ground is not cleaner than before. Except for broken porcelain pieces on the ground, Yin Xi can't see anything. Because the small flame of the candle is really weak, she can hardly even see the faces of Yin Guizhou and Yu Shi. What are they talking about? Find something to trip yourself over.

Yin Xi said: "It's too dark to see clearly. Forget it, it's probably firewood or something. Whatever, let's go out first." After saying that, she had to pull Yin Guizhou away, for fear that he would break something if he wandered around again.

Yin Guizhou let her pull him out. When he passed a place that looked like a stove, he paused and kicked away the things blocking the way at his feet.

I don't know if he did it deliberately, but the thing happened to be lifted to the feet of Yu Shi, who was standing still.

Yu Shi looked down at the thing and remained silent.The wind rose outside and blew open a window in the back kitchen, causing a surge of air in the room. The fragile candle could not withstand the outside wind and was overwhelmed and extinguished.

Only the dim moonlight projected in from the window pattered on half of Yu Shixia's face, casting a shadow between his eyebrows.

The little girl in the inn who originally called Little Parrot to call her sister saw Yin Xi come out with blood on her hands. She immediately swung her short legs and ran to her, saying in surprise: "Sister, what's wrong with you?"

Yin Xi's remaining intact hand held Yin Guizhou's, and met the little girl's fearful and concerned eyes again. She suddenly had the feeling that she was a mother and could not shed tears or cry out in front of her children no matter how painful it was. psychology.

So this eagle-like woman forced a smile on her face and said: "Hahaha, sister is fine, she just fell, it's not a big deal."

It's a big deal, it's a big deal, it hurts her to death.

Yin Xi was complaining in her heart, but she still pretended to be calm and relaxed. After tricking the little girl away, she took Yin Guizhou to sit at the table.

Yin Guizhou smelled the bloody smell in the air and judged that Yin Xi's wound was bleeding a lot. He said, "Sister, why did you fall? You lost so much blood."

Yin Xi was about to say something when Yu Shi came over with gold sore medicine and gauze. She refused Yu Shi's help because of the differences between men and women, and gritted her teeth to apply the medicine on herself.

But this golden sore medicine was comparable to Yunnan Baiyao, it was really spicy, and Yin Xi almost lost control of his facial expressions in pain.

After she finally gathered up the energy to wrap herself in gauze, Yin Xi calmly answered Yin Guizhou's question: "I told you, I tripped and broke the bowl, and I happened to fall on the broken porcelain piece. , the broken porcelain fragments were very sharp and pierced into the flesh, which caused a bit more bleeding, but it’s okay now.”

When Yin Guizhou heard this, he curled his lips and said, "I don't know what kind of thing it is without eyes."

Yin Xi smiled and said, "What if that thing has eyes?"

After this episode, Yin Guizhou blamed himself and was not in the mood to eat the 'sinful' third bowl of noodles.On the contrary, Yin Xi ignored the aching wound on her hand and discussed with Yin Guizhou in a low voice: "Let the little girl sleep with me tonight."

Yin Guizhou said: "Of course, my sister can't let me sleep with her, right?"

Yin Xi knew that what he just said was a little redundant, so he continued: "The first thing we do after getting up tomorrow is to go to Shen's house and tell Shen Jingsi about the ogre."

After speaking, she added: "No matter what we encounter on the road tomorrow, we must put this matter at the forefront. Human lives are at stake and cannot be delayed any longer."

After hearing this, Yin Guizhou nodded seriously and then questioned: "Are you going to Shen's house first?"

Yin Xi said: "What else?"

Yin Guizhou said: "Why don't you go after breakfast?"

Yin Xi: "."

While the two were chatting quietly, the shopkeeper came back from outside after shopping. He was carrying large and small bags of ingredients with a tired look on his face. He called Yu Shi to come over and help carry the things.

When he saw that he was the only one working in the inn, the shopkeeper seemed to have expected it and said nothing. He just shook his head and sighed with a sad face.

Yin Xi saw the shopkeeper sitting tiredly at the table, beating his waist so tired that he couldn't stand up, and felt even more ashamed of him.

She took the initiative to talk to the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, there don't seem to be many people in the store today. Why do you still buy so many things?"
