Food Hunter
Chapter 367: Old Man and Snack Shop
Along the way, the only greenery that can be seen is the cacti that can dance and run. Now in the Elba Oasis, you can finally see trees pointing directly to the sky.
I thought that the living environment of the Kandia Desert was so cruel and that the country's population and economy should be very backward, but when I got here, I saw a lively market with people coming and going.
The buildings in the Elba Oasis are mainly yellow. Each building has thick mud walls, rough and uneven, and windows are few and small. It is a building that sacrifices beauty and pays attention to practicality.
This kind of building can reduce the input of solar heat during the day and prevent the heat from losing quickly at night, and is most suitable for being built in the desert.
The yellow buildings on the periphery of the oasis are scattered and gradually gathered inward. The higher the center, the higher the storey and density of the buildings. In the center of the oasis, a palace stands tall like a flock of chickens.
In the Elba Oasis, there is a place dedicated to raising Kaitou cattle for travelers and businessmen, but a certain fee is charged every day.
Luo raised the Kaitou cow to the merchant's house, and after paying a considerable deposit, he walked into the lively market with Lin Nie and others.
"Where are you going next?" Luo asked, looking at the passing crowd.
Lin Nie said, "Go and meet an old friend."
Luo nodded and didn't ask much.
The more you go inside, the narrower the streets between the buildings, and there are more and more people. On both sides of the street, there are almost all shops selling all kinds of goods, and a curtain is pulled up on each shop to block the hot sunlight.
"Come and see, the red monkey **** fruit, juicy and succulent, is elected to cool off the heat!"
"The dry-fried insect pot is freshly made. Scorpions, sandworms, ants, and sesame snakes are sold together. One or two is only 998, and only 998!"
"The rock tortoise eggs that go to heat and detoxify, only need ten thousand jinni per one!"
The sound of the business owners always echoed in their ears, weaving a prosperous street scene.
There are people stopping outside every shop. Some of these people are local residents and some are outsiders. Among these outsiders, most are adventurers who come to pan for gold and businessmen who come to trade. Pure travelers like Luo, then Accounted for a very small number.
There are also various specialty foods and snacks sold in the desert, but they are a bit too unique. Many of them are snacks made of insects.
Whenever you pass by the food stall, you can always smell the attractive aroma, which is rendered by the local spices, which evokes the greedy worms of Buha La, and makes him constantly point towards the food probes on the shops or stalls.
The group walked through several streets, and finally stopped in front of a store in Menkeluoque. The one who looked at the store was an old man in his 60s and 70s, and his thoughts were smoothly covering his body.
The merchandise sold in the shop is surprisingly some snacks made by things such as scorpions.
Red scorpions in the black, fat sandworms, colorful beetles, two-fingered snakes...
The presentations of these local specialty snacks are basically the same, and the methods are not much different. However, the difference between the snacks sold in the old man's store and those outside is the aroma.
The aroma of other snacks is strong and heavy, while the aroma of the old man's snacks is relatively weak, but the appearance is better than a few points.
The old man was sitting on a low stool by the door, holding a leaf fan in his hand, his head hanging down, as if he was taking a nap, and he was not afraid that the snacks on the stall would be followed by others.
Lin Nie walked in front of the old man, picked up the crutches he carried with him, and knocked on the ground. The muffled sound made the old man's body tremble slightly.
"Which god-killed cow baby, disturbing your grandfather's dreams, living a crooked life, right?"
The old man woke up faintly, and yelled at him before he could see the person.
Luo and Buhara looked speechless from the sidelines. With this attitude, it is no wonder that this store has no customers.
Lin Nie still had no expression on his face listening to the old man's scolding.
The old man looked up at this moment and saw Lin Nie in front of him, his furious old face was suddenly startled.
"you are…"
The old head opened his eyes wide when he saw something incredible.
"It's me." Lin Nie said calmly.
The old head immediately confirmed a certain fact, opened his mouth, his face looked as if he had knocked over a five-flavored bottle, a mixture of flavours, and thought of the **** just now, and he suddenly felt as uncomfortable as having a bowel movement.
"Sister Nie, I, just now, it was an accident, absolutely an accident!"
Somehow the old man smiled awkwardly, then wept inexplicably, and finally showed a happy smile. The expression that changed between several breaths was like a change in the past fifty years.
"Where's Saling?" Looking at the old man like a child who was at a loss, Lin Nie's muddy old eyes showed nostalgia.
"She."
The old man’s eyelids drooped and said in an unforgettable tone: "It's long gone."
"Really..." Lin Nie whispered: "She went to'there' in the end."
"Well, I can't stop it, I really can't stop it." The old man stretched out his hands to caress his forehead, and the tears squeezed out of his dry old eyes. I don't know if he is happy for Lin Nie's arrival or sad for the man named Saling. people.
Lin Nie was silent for a moment, then changed the subject directly, and said, "I will stay here for a while with two younger generations. Is there enough room in your home?"
"Enough, sure enough!" The old man jumped up from the low stool, and then asked eagerly: "Sister Nie, how long will you stay here?"
Lin Nie looked back at Luo and Bu Hara, and said lightly: "It's a long time."
As soon as she finished her voice, she was the master, and walked into the shop.
The old man stared blankly as he watched Lin Nie walk into the shop with ease, his mood was extremely complicated. He hadn't seen him in decades. He could recognize Lin Nie at a glance, and Lin Nie could recognize him at a glance, but the two of them really did. a big change.
"Old man, then we're going in too." Luo looked at the store and said.
"What old man? Call me so old? Sage!" The old man wiped the tears from the corner of his eyes and stared, not to mention it, quite powerful.
Luo's mouth twitched slightly and said again, "Sago, can we go in?"
"Come with me." Sage nodded in satisfaction, and then walked into the store.
"Sago, can I eat these?" Buhara stayed in place, pointing to the various roads on the stall.
Sago glanced back at Buhara, and said, "Sago is happy today. Eat whatever you want. You happened to be here to help me look at the stall."
"Good!" Bukhala nodded fiercely.
Luo heart jumped slightly and said, "Is this bad?"
"My game, my turf, my rules."
After Sago finished speaking, he walked inside without turning his head back. He still had to clean the room for Lin Nie. As for Luo and the others, he didn't wait for him.
Luo watched Sago up the stairs, looked back at Buhara, and said, "Let's relax."
After finishing speaking, follow the stairs to Sago.
At the beginning, Buhara just wanted to taste it, so he casually caught a scorpion that was red in black and threw it into his mouth. He couldn't stop eating.
Sage’s house occupies a small area, but it has three floors, with shops underneath, and rooms on the second and third floors. He cleans the room for Lin Nie, and at the same time asks Luo to go to the third floor to clean his own room.
Luo didn't know the relationship between Sago and Lin Nie, but from the performance of Sago, Lin Nie should be a very important person to him.
To clean the room by himself, Luo wouldn't have complaints. When he walked into the room full of debris on the third floor, the white smoke font suddenly reacted.
"Ok?"
Luo suddenly looked at the debris piled on the stone bed. Is there a treasure in it?
After a pause, he didn't hesitate at all, and began to carry the pile of debris on the bed.
Half an hour later, a rough female voice came from outside the house.
"Sara, you have been thief in your shop!"
Hearing the sound, Sago accused Lin Nie of the crime, and ran to the ground floor, seeing that the snacks on the stall were all empty ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and he was dumbfounded.
Buhara sat on the ground with a contented expression, and outside the shop stood an aunt who had a tonnage to compete with Buhara.
Sago suddenly looked at Buhara who was sitting on the ground and asked, "Isn't it for you to watch?"
"I'm watching." Bukhala's face was puzzled.
Sago pointed to the empty stall and asked, "What about these? Sold out?"
Buhara shook his head and said, "I have eaten it all."
"You've eaten it all!?" Sage shouted out.
On the third floor, Luo poked his head out of the small window and shouted at Buhara: "Let you relax, you really ate!"
Hearing the sound, Buhara raised his head and looked at it, grieved: "Kesakaya lets me eat whatever you want."
"..." Sago.
