Bang-

The jade shattered, and crystal clear fragments splashed everywhere.

The red rope tied with jade was spread aside.

The black eyes turned to the spirit light, and the waterline inside condensed again and pointed forward - the bustling city was still there.

Yang Chunxue had little left in yin energy, so she regretted leaving the scene, and only Lu Li walked to the depths of the downtown area alone.

As we went deeper, there were fewer and fewer pedestrians on the streets in the downtown area, from bustling to sparse, and most of the dilapidated bungalows on both sides of the street were closed.

The vision gradually widened, and the connected houses began to appear faults, and the houses were built in a messy area on this riverside wasteland far away from the city.

Lu Li's eyes fell in a yard not far away, and a scrapped car was over, leaving only iron racks.

This made Lu Li think of something, and Yu Shi looked at the door sign of a bungalow next to the downtown city.

No. 809 Chess and Card Street

By chance, he was looking for clues and unexpectedly approached the stronghold of "Healthy and Happy Every Day".

Where is the appearance of an ordinary house, a circle of fenced yard, ordinary and unremarkable.

When he found that the spirit light did not point there, Lu Li withdrew his gaze and continued to move forward.

He had left the downtown area, and the river was gurgling not far away. The rain a few days ago made the stream very turbid.

Lingyin turned into chaos at this time. Lu Li's pace did not stop, so he continued to move forward and walked to the river to stand still.

Lu Li lowered his head and looked at the turbid river that was more than ten meters wide but only deep in his calf.

His outline reflects.

"Sir, do you need any help?"

A mandarin with a suppressed accent sounded behind him.

Lu Li turned his head and looked at a ragged scavenger behind him.

After a moment of silence, he nodded softly: "I'm looking for someone."

"Look for someone?" The scavenger smiled, revealing his uneven yellow teeth. "Do you want to come in and sit? I'm here, you can ask me something."

He is poor in Mandarin, but he is trying hard to make himself sound normal.

"good."

Lu Li responded, looking around without a trace, following the scavenger.

The temperature during the rainy summer makes people feel comfortable. Perhaps weak and sick people will wear a coat on rainy days, but no one will wear down jackets.

The scavenger in front of him was the exception. The gray down jacket was wrapped around his body, and the wool was squeezed out from several holes. A pair of cotton pants were placed on his legs, and a piece of faded red rope acted as a belt.

Following the scavengers, Lu Li approached a bungalow not far from the river.

The bungalow is made of bricks and stones and wooden boards, low and simple. The yard is filled with various kinds of garbage, such as several hills, with sewage flowing everywhere and garbage. The indescribable smell scattered around.

Walking through several garbage mountains in the yard, Lu Li bowed his head and walked into the house.

The wires were pulled over the head, the bed was piled with bedding, surrounded by newspapers and scrap iron. The room was small and the appliances were buzzing.

Somewhat surprisingly, there is a black and white TV and refrigerator here.

The scavenger noticed that Lu Li was looking at the refrigerator and smiled and said, "It's all picked up. Now the city people don't want it if they can still use it. It just so cheaper for me."

"Please sit." He pointed to a low table.

Lu Li glanced at Ling Yin, and it was still chaotic.

He sat down in silence.

The scavenger took off his down jacket and threw it on the bed, revealing the gray-black sweater covered with oil stains. He grinned and said to Lu Li, "Sorry, I haven't eaten yet, can I wait for me for a while?"

"Please."

From beginning to end, it was strange, and Lu Li answered as if nothing had happened.

The scavenger nodded and ignored Lu Li.

He walked to the refrigerator and picked up a box of wild vegetables. He glanced at him. Lu Li saw several black plastic bags, blood leaking down, and a layer of it accumulated at the bottom.

Bang.

The scavenger closed the refrigerator, held the wild vegetables and walked to the electric fried spoon to open the fire.

After a few dozen seconds, the pot was hot, and the scavenger poured the wild vegetables into the pot. With a sneer, the white smoke rose.

He picked up the dark spatula and stir-fryed it, picked up the pebbles soaked in the water, and poured them into the pot.

Crazy-

The mist boiled and spread on the low roof. The smell drifted towards Lu Li without any fragrance.

The sound of the pebbles stirring is crisp and uncomfortable. After a minute, no longer the mist rises. The scavengers avoid the fire, put the fried wild vegetables and pebbles into the basin, and brought them back to the low table.

The water content of the wild vegetables was lost, and it was as dark as black charcoal. A sister's pebbles were wrapped in a layer of uneven salt shells.

The scavenger took out a bottle of homemade wine from under the table and poured it into a cup.

Take a pebbles, put them in your mouth and take a sip. While the saltiness has not dissipated, pick up the wine glass and drink it all.

“Ha~”

The spicy taste made him feel relaxed.

He seemed to remember that Lu Li was sitting opposite him, showing a kind smile as usual: "I laughed at you, this is my meal. I'm poor, no way."

The wine glass fell, and some strange flocs fluttered in the slightly cloudy wine.

"I saw that there seemed to be some meat in the refrigerator." Lu Li said.

Once the scavenger stopped, he returned to his original state and threw the pebbles into his mouth.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, stirred the pebbles with his tongue to taste the salty taste, and took them out until they were gone, and placed them next to the table, like leftover bones: "Those are unwilling to be eaten, you must eat them slowly, slowly..."

"You can find a job. In today's society, people will not starve to death if they have hands and feet." Lu Li made a suggestion, as if he had forgotten the purpose of coming here.

The scavenger seemed to have forgotten the reason for inviting Lu Li in, and replied with a chuckle: "I am used to laughing at you, and I can't live that kind of life."

Perhaps after drinking some wine, he no longer maintained that awkward Mandarin and had some dialects in his words.

"It's understandable." Lu Li nodded.

The two of them chatted without saying a word. There were fewer and fewer pebbles in the basin, and the licked stones on the table piled up.

When the second glass of wine was drunk, the scavenger put his palm into the basin, but he didn't find anything.

"I'm sorry that some customers didn't stop..." The scavenger smiled honestly and stood up and said, "It seems that I have to take the meat in the refrigerator to make it. Sir, do you like to eat fried or cook it?"

Lu Li shook his head: "No, I can't eat human flesh."

The atmosphere in the hut was stagnant.

The scavenger's body stiffened for a moment and maintained a simple smile: "Sir, you are joking, I am a law-abiding citizen."

"Can the little citizens eat human flesh?" Lu Li asked again.

The scavenger's smile gradually faded away and reappeared: "You are so humorous. If you insist on thinking that the refrigerator is human flesh, why not go and take a look?"

"good."

Lu Li stood up and walked to the refrigerator to open the cabinet door.

The coolness was overwhelming, and two black plastic bags were placed inside. One of the plastic bags was exactly the size of a human head.

The scavenger appeared quietly behind Lu Li, holding a dirty kitchen knife in his hand, gradually lifting it over his head, and his honest smile remained unabated.
