Chapter 182 Eating for Free
Li Banfeng returned to Chu Er's residence and saw Chu Er was still sleeping. He quietly entered Suishenju.
The wife exclaimed: "Hey, husband, how did you get hurt like this?"
Li Banfeng was indeed seriously injured. His face was bruised and swollen, and he was almost unrecognizable.
"Wife, I have something to ask you. Do you know the bitter mother-in-law?"
"The bitter mother-in-law? Which bitter mother-in-law?"
"The bitter mother-in-law of Kucai Village."
Li Banfeng asked Jiuhulu, Tangdao, and even the judge's pen about this matter. None of the magic weapons around him recognized the bitter mother-in-law.
Maybe some memories have disappeared with the soul, or maybe they didn't know about Kucai Village in the first place.
It seems that only the wife knows this.
Da Da Da~Hey!
"The bitter mother-in-law of Kucai Village!"
"Yes," Li Banfeng nodded, "Is she the local god of Kucai Village?"
Da Da Da~Hey!
"Hey, hey, she is not a local god."
The wife knew the bitter mother-in-law, but her tone was a little strange.
"Hey, hey, if she is not a local god, what else can she be?"
Why did my wife ask me back?
Li Banfeng followed the needle holder and touched my wife's armpit: "My wife, are you okay?"
My wife didn't laugh, why is she not ticklish?
Huff~Huff~Huff~
Steam spurted out rapidly, the gears turned quickly, and the flames in the fuel tank shot up high.
Li Banfeng quickly added water to the water tank, he was afraid that my wife would burn the pot dry.
What's wrong with my wife?
"Hey, hey, if she is not a local god, what else can she be? What else can she be? Huhahaha~"
My wife suddenly laughed wildly, and the whole main room was full of steam.
"My wife, what's wrong with you?" Li Banfeng became nervous.
"Who are you?" The sound of the record player became flat, and the singing became unusually cold.
Li Banfeng responded with one sentence: "I am your husband."
"Hey, husband, are you back from buying vegetables?" My wife's tone became gentle again.
"Today... I didn't buy any food."
"Since you didn't buy any food, then you're not my husband. My husband never lets me go hungry. Who are you?"
Li Banfeng didn't know how to answer. Suddenly, a whirlwind blew in from the outer room. Honglian rolled Li Banfeng into the room and closed the door tightly.
There was a burst of sound outside the door. Li Banfeng was worried that something might happen to his wife.
When the sound subsided a little, Li Banfeng immediately went out of the room and found that the record player was safe and sound, but the room was unusually hot.
"My wife?" Li Banfeng called out.
Whirl~Whirl~
The steam spurted out several times, and the record player responded: "Hey, my husband."
Fortunately, it still recognized me.
Li Banfeng breathed a sigh of relief.
Whirl~Whirl~
"My husband is back from buying food?"
Li Banfeng didn't know how to answer.
He saw the singing girl standing by the wall. If he couldn't do it, he would feed her to his wife.
But she only has spirit left, her soul has been eaten, can my wife still like her?
When I was in trouble, I suddenly heard my wife asked: "Husband, who hurt you like this?"
It's this question again.
My wife lost her memory?
Did you forget what happened just now?
I can't answer casually this time.
I said I was beaten by a ruthless person. If my wife asked who the ruthless person was, she might think of my bitter mother-in-law again, and she would go crazy.
I have to try my best to distract my wife's attention and let her not associate it with my bitter mother-in-law.
"It was a few thieves. There were many of them. I was outnumbered and was beaten."
"What kind of thieves?" My wife was very angry, "Is it a traveler? If it is a traveler, take them home and I will kill them, hahaha, kill them!"
Li Banfeng shook his head and said: "It's not a traveler."
"If it's not a traveler, take them home. If they hurt my husband, they deserve to die. I will kill them together! Hahaha!"
My wife is still not normal.
Li Banfeng agreed: "Yes, kill them all. Are you tired, madam? If you are tired, take a rest."
Huff~
The record player yawned.
"You know what, I am a little tired. My husband will go find those thieves later. Let me rest for a while."
While my wife was still asleep, Li Banfeng took out the old teapot and said to her, "Now I am a fourth-level home cultivator. The seal of this magic weapon should be unlocked."
"Hey~ This teapot is too high-level. If I unlock it now, it may be bad for my husband."
"My wife is too cautious. Zhong Desong was only at the second level at the beginning, but he still used it."
"He is practicing hard and can withstand the torture of this teapot. Well, please bring the teapot to me, and I will talk to him first."
Li Banfeng brought the teapot to the record player. Although he had the technique to understand the spiritual sound, the two spoke too fast. Li Banfeng could not hear clearly. He only saw the record spinning on the tray and the sound of gongs and drums coming from the speaker from time to time.
My wife was intimidating the teapot. The two were probably discussing the capital.
After waiting for more than five minutes, the wife exhaled a breath of steam: "Things have been discussed, the cost of the magic weapon is still needed.
In the past, his cost was too high, and he had to burn the master every time he used it. Now the cost has changed, and he just wants the husband to take a hot bath."
Li Banfeng looked at the teapot: "Isn't it the same?"
"Don't worry, husband, the bath water won't be too hot, and he won't hurt the husband."
Use the magic weapon once and take a bath for free, is it such a cheap thing?
Li Banfeng was very suspicious of the teapot's motives. The lady yawned and said, "Mr. sir, I'm really sleepy, so I'll go to sleep first."
After the wife fell asleep, Li Banfeng took the teapot to the fifth room.
The fifth room is at the end of the third room, which is the room farthest from the record player.
The room was empty. The fifth house had just been opened, and Li Banfeng had not yet purchased any belongings. He held the teapot in his hand and asked, "Do you know Kucai Village?"
The teapot replied: "I know that all the hard work in the world comes from Kucai Village."
Li Banfeng frowned and said, "Aren't all the cultivators in the world made from powdered medicine by a salesman?"
"Hehe, that's not necessarily the case. In addition to salesmen, there are many sources of medicinal powder. Rich families have a lot of medicinal powders for literary and martial arts cultivators. These are not bought from salesmen."
Ma Wu did say that all the big families had medicinal powder, but they didn't buy it from the dealer. Where did it come from?
“I don’t know anything about wealthy people, but the medicinal powder used for self-cultivation comes from Kucai Village.
Kucaizhuang has no borders and borders all parts of Puluo Prefecture. Anyone who wants to come can come and live in Kucaizhuang's food restaurant for three days. If they can endure this misery, Granny Ku will The medicinal powder was given to them, and they entered the Taoist sect from then on. "
"Anyone who comes here will be given powder? Don't you need to accumulate fortune?"
"Buchicai Village is a special place. If you stay here for three days, you will have a lot of luck."
"Is it similar to San Toucha?"
"It's too far away. You can't go to San Toucha. The things saved there may not be destiny.
Hou Sheng, you just asked about Ku Granny, could it be that you have already arrived at Kucaizhuang? "
Li Banfeng did not deny it: "I am in Kucaizhuang now and can't get out. Granny Ku won't let me go and said she wants to temper me."
"Since she won't let you go, you can stay in the village for a while. We don't even have a month sign in this house. I don't know what month it is. Anyway, she can stay at most three months a year. Wait until she leaves. , just leave again,
Don't argue with her, let alone fight with her. You are no match for her. Even a thousand of you or ten thousand of you are no match for her. "
One thousand, ten thousand...
Too exaggerated?
What level of character is she?
Can the earth god control her?
"My wife said she is not the Earth God of Kucai Village, then who is the Earth God of Kucai Village?"
"There used to be a local god in Kucai Village, but now there is no more.
Also, don’t compare the Earth God and Ku Po Po, they don’t deserve it. "
Even the earth gods are not worthy?
"What level of cultivation is Granny Ku?"
Teapot coughed twice and said: "Young man, I am your magic weapon. I will not hesitate when I go into battle, but I have my own nature. I don't want to be someone else's slave.
If you think highly of me, we can be friends forever. You call me brother, and I call you brother.
If you look down on me, just call me "old man" and I will not fail to perform my duties.
I don’t remember many things. I will tell you whatever I can tell you.
I have forgotten most of the things about Granny Ku, so don’t ask about the things I have forgotten. "
Although Li Banfeng still doesn't trust the teapot, he agrees with the attitude of equal treatment.
"Brother, I won't ask any more questions about Granny Ku. Please say a few more words about Kucaizhuang. I will stay here for more than two months. What do I need to pay attention to during these two months? "
"You must remember three rules. The first rule is suffering. In Kucai Village, you have to endure the suffering. Don't even think about enjoying happiness here.
Don't drink, don't smoke, don't think about eating well, don't think about sleeping with girls,
Your house is a bit special. It’s okay to have fun with your ladies in this house. But when you leave this house, you must abide by the rules in the village.
After leaving Kucaizhuang, there is a lot of fun waiting for you outside. Don’t miss the important event just because of your greed for pleasure. "
"What will happen if we miss something important?"
"If I remember correctly, there are only two consequences for those who break the rules in Kucai Village. Those who Granny Ku does not want to keep will be kicked out of the village, and those who Granny Ku wants to keep will be sent to the new land.
Brother, I don’t know much about your affairs outside, but I guess you should have been to Xindi, and you should also know how dangerous Xindi is.
The new land of Kucaizhuang is particularly dangerous. If you are sent to the new land by Granny Ku, she will not allow you to return to Kucaizhuang. I am afraid you will have to stay in the new land for the rest of your life. You can decide for yourself what is more important. "
Go to the new land!
It’s great to go to Xinchi!
Then I can walk back to Lanyang Village.
While he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard the teapot speak again: "The second rule is don't ask about the origin. In Zhuangzi, don't ask about anyone's origin, not even their name. This is an established rule."
"What happens if you break this rule?"
"It won't matter, it's just that you will be disliked by others. When you come to Kucai Village, you are the ones who suffer. Your status outside has nothing to do with what happens in the village.
The third rule is not to kill anyone. In Kucai Village, even Granny Ku herself doesn’t kill anyone.
This rule must not be broken. When I first went to Kucaizhuang, two people got into a fight over food. One died and the other disappeared that night.
No one knows where he went, and no one knows whether he is dead or alive. This is the result of killing people in Kucaizhuang. "
No wonder Li Banfeng felt that there was great danger when he wanted to kill Chu Er.
This also reminded Li Banfeng that he was going to cause trouble in Kucaizhuang, but he must not cause any deaths.
But this is also a good thing. If Li Banfeng makes trouble here, the bitter mother-in-law will not kill him.
The old teapot continued: "As long as you don't break these three rules, the bitter mother-in-law usually doesn't care about other things."
Li Banfeng asked the teapot: "It's rare to revisit the old place. Do you want to go back and take a look?"
"Brother, I still say the same thing. If you want to fight in Kucai Village, I will never hesitate when it's time to take action.
If you don't want to fight, it's best not to let me go to Kucai Village, and don't let me step into it again."
He has a deep grudge against Kucai Village.
Li Banfeng put away the teapot and went to sleep in the main room.
The teapot is different from other magic weapons.
It seems that he has more things than other magic weapons.
...
The next morning, Li Banfeng walked out of the Suishenju, took the key, and saw Chu Er lying on the wall looking around.
Li Banfeng walked behind him and asked, "What are you looking at!"
Chu Er shuddered and fell heavily from the top of the wall: "What are you doing? Do you want to scare me to death?"
Li Banfeng questioned, "What are you doing lying on the top of the wall?"
"I'm not looking for you. Who knows where you ran off this morning? Tomorrow is a free meal day. Come with me quickly, don't wait for the bitter mother-in-law to beat you again."
After leaving the door, Li Banfeng asked as he walked, "What does free meal mean?"
"It means that everyone in the village will go to the free meal restaurant together tomorrow and eat for free for a day."
Is there such a good thing?
"Still eating steamed bread?"
Chu Er smiled bitterly: "It would be nice to have steamed bread. We have to eat rice at the Baishi Restaurant."
"Isn't rice better than steamed bread?"
"You'll know when you get there."
"The meal will be served tomorrow. Are we leaving today? Isn't it too early?"
"There is only one Baishi Restaurant in the whole Kucai Village. I am considered close. Those who live far away have to leave three days in advance."
The whole Kucai Village eats in one place. How big a restaurant must it be?
Li Banfeng followed Chu Er for a day and a night. In fact, the Baishi Restaurant was not far away, just more than 80 miles away.
But Chu Er was not a travel cultivator. He could not walk as fast as Li Banfeng. Moreover, the road was not easy to walk on. The wind and sand were particularly strong. When they arrived at the Baishi Restaurant, it was almost dawn.
The people of the whole Kucai Village gathered in front of the Baishi Restaurant waiting for the meal.
The so-called Baishi Restaurant was not a big restaurant. It was just a big mud house. There were barely seven or eight big tables inside.
Can it accommodate the people of the whole Kucai Village?
It can really hold a lot of people.
Li Banfeng roughly counted and found that there were only more than 60 people in front of the Baishi Restaurant.
"There are still many who haven't come yet, right?"
Chu Er looked around and said, "Almost all of them are here."
"There are only a few people in Kucai Village?"
"Not a few. There aren't many people who practice asceticism, and there are even fewer who are willing to return to Kucai Village to practice. If you have a certain level, who would come here for no reason?"
At 7 o'clock in the morning, the Baishi Restaurant opened for dinner. The uncle who served the food served a bowl of rice to each person, and the side dish was the bitter vegetables from Kucai Village.
Li Banfeng took a mouthful of white rice, chewed it twice, and carefully tasted the ratio of sand to rice.
50% sand, 50% rice?
No, it feels like there is more sand.
Li Banfeng wanted to vomit, but Chu Er stopped him: "You can't vomit, or you'll get beaten."
Li Banfeng swallowed the rice and put the bowl on the ground: "I'm full."
Chu Er shook his head and said: "You can't leave any leftovers, or you'll get beaten!"
The uncle serving rice was looking over here, with anger in his eyes.
Li Banfeng still put the bowl down.
Chu Er was scared: "Don't make trouble, the person serving rice is coming over."
"He wants to beat me, right?" Li Banfeng stood up, "Okay, I'll fight him!"
It's not that I can't bear the hardship, it's that I can't bear the anger.
Why do you mix sand into good rice?
There are a lot of grains piled up in the open space behind the white food restaurant. There are not many people in Kucai Village, and the grain is obviously enough to eat. Why do you waste people like this?
The uncle serving rice walked towards this side angrily, took two steps, and retreated angrily.
Li Banfeng was ready to fight, and was wondering why the person serving rice didn't come over.
Chu Er lowered his head to eat rice, not daring to say a word.
It seemed that there was another person around him.
Li Banfeng looked back and saw that the bitter mother-in-law was behind him.
In the white food restaurant, everyone lowered their heads and dared not move.
They knew who was coming, and they knew that Li Banfeng was going to be unlucky.
The bitter mother-in-law looked at Li Banfeng and said calmly: "You don't eat the rice, I think you are still not tempered enough."
It seems that he will be beaten again.
But even if he was beaten, Li Banfeng would not eat this bowl of rice.
Good rice mixed with sand is just to disgust people!
Seeing that Li Banfeng was so stubborn, the bitter mother-in-law did not beat him.
She took out a bitter vegetable from her pocket: "After all, you can't bear the bitterness. Don't eat rice, eat a vegetable."
Chu Er squatted on the ground and pulled Li Banfeng's trouser legs.
Seventh Master, I beg you to eat it, don't do it again.
PS: Why do you have to force him to eat vegetables?
