The young man seemed to be very hungry and wolfed down his food.
It's a pity that he is mortal and cannot see what he eats, otherwise he would definitely vomit out bile.
Tang Zhen didn't expose it, so as not to frighten the other party and delay the matter. Anyway, it wouldn't kill anyone, it would only ruin his stomach.
It seems not bad to have a full meal before dying.
After eating all the chicken on the plate, the young man poured another cup of rancid water and drank it as if it were tea.
After wiping his mouth, the young man showed his contentment after having had enough wine and food, and stretched at the same time.
From the look of him, he seemed to be going to sleep.
Fortunately, he still remembered the origin of his full meal. He glanced at Tang Zhen who was sitting opposite, and his face was immediately filled with smiles.
"Master, whatever you want to know, I will tell you."
Listening to the young man talk, you can tell that this guy is very naughty. He knows that there is no free lunch in the world, but he doesn't let the eagle catch the rabbit.
"I want to know where you are coming from and what information is out there.
The more you say, the better, if I'm satisfied..."
When Tang Zhen was talking, he reached out and brushed the table, and heard a "pop" sound, and ten shining golden hexagonal coins were lined up one after another.
"If your news satisfies me, these gold coins will be yours. I will do what I say!"
When Tang Zhen spoke, he looked at the young man opposite him intently and quietly used a hypnotic ability.
Although his cultivation is sealed, this hypnosis method does not require high strength, and even ordinary people can master it after training.
The young man swallowed and looked at the shining gold coins with a trace of greed in his eyes.
People often say that the right medicine is right for the case, and these gold coins from Tang Zhen have already attracted the young man's attention.
Tang Zhen smiled and said nothing.
He had noticed before that everyone else in the convoy was working, but this young man was doing nothing.
Judging from his clothes, it seems that he is not a caravan group, but a traveler following the caravan.
He didn't have to work, because the caravan was fully manned and didn't need the help of travelers.
The young man was penniless and had no money to buy food, so his eyes lit up when he saw food. He was actually looking for leftovers.
Tang Zhen invited him to dinner, and then took out gold coins as a temptation. The young man didn't care about anything else, and immediately started talking like he was pouring beans out of a bamboo tube.
Tang Zhen listened slowly and memorized all the key contents while constantly analyzing.
According to what the young man said, the world is so big that there are countless races and countries.
Legends about monsters and ghosts are widely circulated in this world, and there are also monks who are in a high position.
After talking about the rumors about the world, he then talked about himself.
The convoy came from hundreds of miles away, and the young people paid to come with them to make a living. The journey was extremely difficult with food and shelter.
Now that we have finally arrived at our destination, all the travelers who came with the motorcade are looking for relatives and friends in the city. The young man has nowhere to go, so he stays near the hotel and sleeps one night.
Wait until daybreak, then look for work and find ways to fill your stomach.
After the young man finished speaking, he stared at the gold coins on the table intently, his eyes full of longing.
"These gold coins belong to you. I hope you have the opportunity to spend them all. I also want to give you a piece of advice. It's best to keep one eye open when sleeping."
Tang Zhen stood up while speaking, ignored the surprised young man, turned and walked towards the streets of the city.
He had to go to the center of the city, because the situation in this town was very wrong, and there might be a higher-level demon controlling everything.
If it were normal times, Tang Zhen, whose strength was sealed, would choose to dodge, but in a competitive situation, Tang Zhen had no reason to escape at all.
Even though he knew there was danger, he still had to rush forward because he believed he was no weaker than others.
…
"Is there something wrong with this person?"
After seeing Tang Zhen leave, the young man immediately put away the gold coins and murmured to himself at the same time.
He always felt that Tang Zhen's words before leaving were a disguised curse on him, so he felt very unhappy.
But there is also a possibility that he is reminding himself?
"Sir, do you want to stay in the hotel?"
A cold voice suddenly sounded in his ears, which startled the young man. When he looked up, he found that it was a waiter from the hotel.
He stared straight at the young man, the dim light shining on his face, which made him look pale and scary.
"What are you doing? You're sick!"
The young man cursed, hid the gold coins, and turned to leave.
But when he turned around, he still reached out and grabbed a few rotten meat patties and stuffed them into his arms.
Anyway, Tang Zhen has already paid, so it can't be wasted. Taking it with you can save a meal.
Looking at the young man leaving, the man just smiled, but his expression was a little ferocious.
After leaving the hotel, the young man walked slowly along the street, preparing to find another inn to rest.
The reason why we didn't stay at the original hotel was because there were too many people there. Someone might have seen what happened and steal his gold coins.
So I would rather toss around for a while, but I have to leave, find a comfortable place, take a shower and have a good sleep.
At this time, there were fewer and fewer pedestrians on the road. The white paper lanterns hung on both sides of the road, accompanied by the cold wind blowing from time to time, gave people a creepy feeling.
The young man shrank his neck and felt a little scared in his heart. He always felt that there seemed to be many eyes looking at him in the darkness.
"This place seems to be a bit evil!"
Perhaps because of being too nervous, the young man suddenly felt a severe stomachache, as if he was reeling from the sea.
"Ouch..."
The young man was sweating from the pain. When he saw a half-open wooden door in the vegetable garden on the roadside, he pushed it open and rushed in.
Finding a random corner, the young man squatted down, and then a stench wafted away.
"Mom, is it because you haven't eaten meat for too long that you have a bad stomach?"
The young man muttered secretly, thinking that his intestines were too slippery to hold oil and water, but he didn't know that what he ate was not normal food at all.
While he was thinking wildly, he saw a wooden shed on the edge of the vegetable garden, which was currently lit with lights.
Several shirtless men wearing leather skirts were surrounding the wooden table, constantly slashing at something with their swords.
There is a large pot next to it. The flames are rising under the stove, and the heat is dancing in the pot.
The young man stretched his neck and smelled it, and it turned out to be the smell of cooking meat.
"Smells, hehe, it smells so good!"
At this moment, the young man could see that he was in the backyard vegetable garden of the hotel just now, and those big men should all be hotel clerks.
They were probably cooking, and the food was good. They cooked a big pot of fatty meat!
The young man regretted a little. He shouldn't have left too early, otherwise he might get a bowl of broth.
I was feeling annoyed, but I saw those men putting the things on the case into the basket and carrying them together into the darkness.
"The opportunity has come!"
The young man's heart skipped a beat, he grabbed a handful of dirt and wiped his butt, picked up his pants and ran towards the woodshed.
After looking at the things and listening for a while, after confirming that no one was coming, the young man immediately came to the big pot and fished it out with a big ladle.
Then he felt his hand heavy, and then he saw a round thing protruding from the soup pot.
After seeing clearly what was in the pot, the young man shivered with fright and almost screamed.
He never dreamed that what was cooked in the pot was not livestock meat at all, but a fresh human head!
Perhaps it was because the men had just added water to the pot before leaving. The face of the human head was vaguely distinguishable, and it was clearly a member of the caravan.
"This is a black shop, they eat people!"
While this thought flashed through the young man's mind, he somehow thought of Tang Zhen and what he said before leaving.
"Perhaps he knew this was a black shop, so that person reminded him before leaving?"
The young man had just had this idea in his mind, and then he felt a gust of evil wind coming from behind him, going straight to the back of his head.
He lowered his head subconsciously to dodge, and then heard a crisp "clang" sound, and the oil tank on the stove was directly smashed.
The grease spilled down the stove and immediately burned when it came into contact with the flames. At the same time, it also enveloped the enemy who sneaked up on the young man.
The young man who had escaped unscathed turned his head and saw a butcher with a broken stomach and half of his head looking at him with a butcher knife.
There was also a person in his hand. Judging from his clothes, he was clearly a member of the caravan.
At this moment, the young man could not have imagined that the meat-chopping scene he saw earlier was clearly the evil butchers dismembering the corpses.
"Help, there's a ghost in the hotel!"
The young man's strength came out of nowhere, and he jumped up from the ground. While shouting at the top of his lungs, he ran as fast as he could into the distance.
