When Yu Sheng told the whole story, Li Zheng and Uncle Shi were also stunned.
They didn't believe in evil, so they hit the salted fish with sledgehammers, but the salted fish was still unharmed.
"It's evil." They also looked at the salted fish. Six people surrounded a salted fish in an airtight manner.
"Could it be that there's a monster in front of it?" Li Zheng said.
"Perhaps there is some curse or spell." the little old man said.
"I heard that children's urine can dispel evil spirits. Do you want to try it?" Ye Zigao suggested.
"That makes sense." Everyone nodded.
"I'll call Baozi over," Yu Sheng said.
Everyone didn't agree and just looked at him.
"What are you looking at me doing?"
"What do you think?"
Yu Sheng's tone changed, "I don't think it's right for us to do this."
"Salted fish is Lu Renyi's weapon, we can't abuse it like this," Yu Sheng said.
"Why didn't you tell me that I just chopped you with a knife?"
"If it's broken, I can give the crime tool to Lu Renyi. He will be very happy."
"Now you can also commit the crime... If this doesn't work, then you give him the knife as compensation." Ye Zigao said.
"Then how come..."
"Waiter, is the meal ready? Our lady is starving." Wu Zhu's maid called in the lobby.
"Coming, coming." Yu Sheng agreed, turning around and saying to everyone, "It's important to eat."
After Yu Sheng returned to the kitchen, they returned to the lobby. As soon as they entered the door, the little old man stopped and asked, "Wuzhu?"
"Wuzhu." Bai Gaoxing's heart sank.
"Witch's blessing?" Ye Zigao said.
Wu Zhu, who was standing at the wooden ladder, glanced at them and slowly walked towards Aunt Qing, "Is this young master your Geng?"
"Twenty." Aunt Qing said.
"Twenty years old, no wonder he is so handsome." Wu Zhu spoke with a provocative tone.
"What's going on?"
The three of them looked at each other and thought to themselves that something terrible had happened in the inn in the past half day. My aunt was actually allowed to be teased.
Wu Zhu leaned on the counter and looked at Aunt Qing with burning eyes, "This skin is so tender." She said with a smile.
The maid noticed the difference and said, "Madam..."
Wu Zhu pushed the maid away and continued to ask Aunt Qing: "Is the young master getting married?"
Aunt Qing shook her head.
The maid was holding her clothes nearby, but she was pushed away by the witch Zhu, "Is there anyone you like?"
"No." Aunt Qing said again.
"What do you think of sister?" She put her arms on the counter and made a seductive gesture.
"Madam, she is a female." The maid couldn't help but whisper.
"Female?" Wu Zhu was stunned.
Just as she was about to straighten up, Aunt Qing reached out and pulled her down on the counter.
When the witch Zhu was stunned, Aunt Qing rubbed her chin with her hand, "It doesn't matter if she's a woman, I just like women."
Ye Yegao and the three of them were almost shocked. Did the sun come out in the west today?
Aunt Qing caressed Witch Zhu's earlobe, "Madam, you are so adorable."
For a moment, Wu Zhu heard his own heartbeat.
She hurriedly broke away and straightened up, "Here, bring the food into the room."
After taking another look at her aunt, the witch Zhu went upstairs in a panic, this time without the help of a maid.
"Hey~" Aunt Qing smiled disdainfully and looked up to see Ye Zigao and three other people looking at her, as well as Fu Nan and the two old men looking at her.
"What are you looking at? Don't you want wages or don't want to live anymore?" Aunt Qing raised her eyebrows.
"Fall here, fall here." The white-haired old man turned around and pointed the gray-haired old man where to go.
"Oh, oh." The gray-haired old man responded hurriedly and dropped a chess piece in his hand.
Fu Nan looked at him in surprise that someone actually taught his opponent how to play chess.
Yu Sheng brought out the mess and asked, "Where are the people?"
The three people standing pointed upstairs.
"Are you sick?" Yu Sheng handed the dish to Ye Zigao, "You serve it to them."
Ye Zigao has always been open to the opposite sex and went upstairs with a plate.
The two old men were also eating at the inn, and after lunch they started fighting again.
Fu Nan sat around them constantly, ready to stick up and give advice at any time.
After a short lunch break, Yu Sheng led Ye Zigao and the others to dig sweet potatoes by the lake, leaving Aunt Qing and Cao'er to look after the shop at the inn.
Xu was frightened by Aunt Qing, and the witch Zhu stayed in the room and never came down.
Because the lake water has receded a lot, there is not much danger in digging sweet potatoes.
It's just that the bitter potatoes are very small and have a strong bitter taste. I only dug them for a few years before I became a shopkeeper.
When Ye Zigao was working, he complained, "You are more lazy than me."
Yu Sheng stretched out his hands and said, "These hands are used for cooking. It will be bad if they are exposed to other smells."
This reason is high-sounding, but the leaves are too high for them to do anything about.
By the time they loaded up the oxcart and headed back, the sun was already setting over the Western Mountains.
The fields are bare, with only a few patches of grass half a foot high. The sheep herder, He, can no longer drive his sheep to other places.
Seeing these fields, Ye Yegao and the others sighed together.
The little old man wondered, "What's wrong?"
"This will be all our work from now on." Ye Zi raised his finger.
The rest of life is easy, being an exploiter is great. When they returned to the inn, the two old men played half a game of chess.
Seeing that it was already getting late, they stood up and said, "Shopkeeper, please give me paper and pen to seal the chess piece." The white-haired old man said.
I'm speechless for the rest of my life, two stinky chess baskets actually still sealed the chess game.
For the rest of my life, I forgot that now he is not even considered a bad chess player, and I can easily beat him even if I am rich or in trouble.
As for backgammon, Yu Sheng doesn’t have an advantage now.
After struggling to win a game against Ye Zigao, Yu Sheng announced that he was going to quit chess, thus preserving his undefeated reputation in the inn.
Ye Zigao was good at playing chess, so he took a pen and paper as he was told and asked the gray-haired old man who needed to make the move to write the move he wanted to make on the paper.
"Your head..." The gray-haired old man didn't know how to turn his head in classical Chinese, so he could only make a circle with his hands.
The white-haired old man rolled his eyes and turned his head away, leaving the bird on his shoulder to clearly see what the gray-haired old man had written.
After sealing the chess game, they settled the bill and heard that Yu Sheng and the others spent twenty coins a day. The white-haired old man took out two leaves from his arms.
"That's ridiculous." He put it back and took out a handful of rusty copper coins.
He counted them one by one, and then handed the seventeen cents to Yu Sheng, "Twenty cents." The white-haired old man was very angry.
"Brother Mu, that's ridiculous." The gray-haired old man reminded him, picking up another coin from a handful of copper coins, "You are short of fifteen."
He added the money and said to Yu Sheng: "Little young man, please order."
Yu Sheng couldn't help but remember Liu Liu, "Now I know why you call each other Brother Mu."
"Why?"
"Because Mumei didn't come today." Yu Sheng said and picked out two coins from a handful of coins, "This is only twenty coins."
The two old men were calculating in their hearts. After walking out of the inn, they suddenly realized, "You are the only one with two literacies." "You are the only one with three literacies."
The two laughed and said goodbye, "Brother Mu, take care." "Brother Mu, see you later."
They turned around and went back the way they came, but the white-haired old man quickly turned around and said, "Brother Mu."
The gray-haired old man turned around and said, "Brother Mu, what are your orders?"
"Remember to pay me back twelve cents."
"Half of the twenty essays are ten essays."
"I know, but today you will use a lot of rice to make a mess."
