Chapter 86: Sandworms and white maggots for food

I looked at Brother Fengyu and I didn't understand what the old lady meant.

The old lady looked at us with her eyes squinted, showing a sneer, "The girls in the village will pursue them enthusiastically when they meet the guy they like. It's no big deal. I did this when I was young. Xuena is the granddaughter of the village chief, and she is the most beautiful girl in the village."

I don’t know what the old lady thought of, so she knocked the ground twice with her cane and turned around and walked towards the yard. Brother Fengyu and I could only follow her with the doubts in our hearts.

"You two live here." The old lady pointed to the wooden house of more than ten square meters on the right, "Go down the things first, and then go to the kitchen to have supper."

"Okay." I nodded and walked into this wooden house with Brother Fengyu, which seemed to collapse when the wind blew. Because it was eroded by rain all year round, the wood was pitch black.

The room was not only damp but also a smell of mold. When I turned on the searchlight of my phone, I saw a plastic rope with a rusty key hanging behind the wooden door. When I pulled the rope gently, the incandescent lamp in the center of the room lit up. The dim light was not bright, but I could barely see the scene in the room.

For about a minute, the incandescent lamp was much brighter than it started because of the continuous heating. Put the things in place, look around before leaving the house.

The kitchen was very simple. A large fire pit, the cauldron and pot were worn with iron wire and dropped on the pit. In addition to the neatly piled wood, pine hair and dried corn wormwood, there was only a dark square table with greasy and strange smell that reached the knees and a few wooden trunks.

When Brother Fengyu and I entered the kitchen, the old lady was sitting by the fire pit, holding his simple crutch with one hand.

Hearing the footsteps, he opened his eyelids and glanced at us, and spoke without hesitation: "The rice is slightly next to the fire pit, the bowls, chopsticks, rice and spoons are in the basin next to it, and the vegetables are in the pot."

After saying that, the old lady looked at the beating flames silently, and the meaning in her words was self-evident.

After looking at Brother Fengyu, I walked to the big basin and took out the rice spoon from it to take out the rice bowl and vegetable bowl. Put the bowl on the small table, Brother Fengyu took the rice spoon. I took it from behind.

When the meals were arranged, the old lady was not polite and sat at the table.

During the whole process, she did not have the master's consciousness at all.

I sat down with the rice on the table and looked at the bad-looking dishes on the table and the rice that was a little green in the bowl. I was tired and hungry all day, but suddenly I lost my appetite.

I tentatively sipped the rice, which was even worse than I thought, astringent and bitter, and had a musty smell and the smell of rotten rice.

But looking at the old lady's skillful movements and indifferent appearance, it was hard to say anything. She could only swallow it with her teeth and didn't even dare to chew, for fear of tasting the strange taste in the rice.

I finally waited until the old lady finished eating and left the kitchen. Almost the moment the old lady went out, I put down the bowl and covered her mouth and retching.

Brother Fengyu also put down the bowl and reached out to pat my back: "Is it okay?"

"There is something." It's a big deal!

I finally waited for a little better before I looked up at what I had eaten just now. Because of my physiological reaction, my eyes were filled with tears and my vision was a little blurred.

I didn't dare to look closely before, but now the old lady is not here, so I picked up the chopsticks and turned the food.

"Fuck!!!"

It would be fine if I didn’t dial, but this one couldn’t help but retching. There were actually rice insects in the rice!

I looked at the only bowl of dishes, and took a moment with a strange mood-

"Depend on!!!"

My hand holding the chopsticks shook, turned to look at Brother Fengyu, and saw his pale and distorted face in his pupils. He asked in a hoarse voice, "Brother Fengyu, have you eaten this thing?"

He shook his head gently, "I have nothing but food."

After hearing this, I breathed a sigh of relief. The rice was just rice worms, but the stewed meat in this bowl - sandworms and white maggots are really a lot! Can this kind of thing be eaten?

A cold air climbed up to the tail spine and put down the chopsticks. I looked at the simple kitchen in a daze, "Brother Fengyu, this white bone village is really special. Does everyone eat these things?"

"We all eat these things in our village!"

A gloomy voice came from behind, shriveling and shriveling. Brother Fengyu and I looked back awkwardly at the old lady who suddenly appeared.

The old lady held the crutch in her hand and snorted in, stood in front of me and looked at us condescendingly, "If you can't eat, you can't eat it. Next time, the old lady won't ask you! The harvest in the village is not good, so you can eat whatever you can eat, let alone the sandworms in the stinky ditch, the white maggots in the rotten meat, and even if you are hungry, you will have to chew the bark and soil!" Even if it's feces!

Looking at the old lady's eyes, I looked away and grabbed Brother Fengyu, and apologized with a dry smile: "I'm sorry, we didn't know much about it just now. When we were full, we... went out first?"

She snorted lightly, then put down her crutches and cleaned the table. Seeing that she ignored us, I pulled Brother Fengyu out of the kitchen like a runaway.

Without going back to our residence, we left our old lady's house and walked along the mountain road while thinking about what happened today.

The sky was already dark, the moon was blocked by the mountains, and the sight was beyond reach. The entire White Bone Village was like a huge bottle, trapping people inside and having no way to escape.

As I walked, I covered my mouth with my hands and exhaled, smelling the moldy smell left after the meal in my mouth, and retching.

As I walked, I sat down on a grassy field.

I casually put the phone that still had no signal on the grass, lie down with my arms spread out, and Brother Fengyu sat beside me.

I looked at Xingzi, who was looming in the sky and said, "Hey, Brother Fengyu, do you think Baigu Village is really so poor? This deep mountain is not prey, right? They can make a living by hunting. And they built their existence in such a place, with cliffs everywhere, and the small world above their heads can be ignored. Did you think this village chose such a position that is easy to defend and difficult to attack in order to avoid disasters?"

It is indeed easy to defend but difficult to attack. The only entrance is the road at the entrance of the village. There is definitely a momentum for a man to pass through thousands of men.

Brother Fengyu thought for a while before answering: "Maybe, this village is indeed suspicious. Who would build a house in such a place without light?"

It is because of this that it is strange! But——"The old village chief's reaction today is too strange. Why did he conceal Liu Yi and the others' visit to the village? What happened after Liu Yi and the others came to the village?"

"But before I went to find out the case of Liu Yi and the others," I touched my cramped belly, "Brother Fengyu, I'm hungry. Let's go out of the village tomorrow morning to hunt, you can't really eat that thing."

"good."

"Um."

After solving the food problem, I breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed. But as soon as I relaxed, I was suddenly shocked. I suddenly got up and patted my thigh hard.
