Chapter 221 Compassion for the Farmers
Li Yue walked to the dining table very calmly, and finally he sat at the dining table next to Liu Yang and Ding Hui.
As he slowly sat down, Li Yue saw that Liu Yang and Ding Hui seemed to be working happily with their heads down, but in fact this was not the case.
At this time, both of their faces were pale and their eyes were a little distracted.
And their stomachs were slightly bulging, and it looked like they had eaten a lot.
Li Yue looked at the others and found that they were very similar to Liu Yang. They were all pale, and even their bellies were bulging, but to different degrees.
There were a few people whose stomachs were as bulging as small rubber balls, and their faces were filled with snot and tears, but even so, they continued to eat.
Li Yue looked at the eyes of these people and did not lose consciousness.
That is to say, they are not controlled, everything is their own choice.
“Interesting, is it just a rule to eat, but it goes well with restaurants.”
The more Li Yue looked at it, the more interesting it became.
Liu Yang, who was lowering his head to eat, suddenly saw someone sitting on the dining table next to them through the corner of his eye.
"What's going on? Ma Jin has obviously blocked this street, how could anyone come in?"
Liu Yang raised his head slightly and ate the meal in front of him. He turned and looked to his side.
When he saw that the person sitting in the seat next to him turned out to be Li Yuehou, his pupils shrank unconsciously, and then an obvious look of excitement flashed in his eyes.
When he saw him, he was about to raise his head to speak, but suddenly stopped and continued to raise his head, as if he thought of something, and continued to eat, but he kept winking at Li Yue.
Li Yue followed Liu Yang's gaze and found two calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall of the restaurant, and it was one of them that Liu Yang was looking at.
I saw only three big characters on a somewhat old calligraphy and painting, "Eating without speaking". Other than that, there was no inscription or signature.
However, Li Yue, who has the professional knowledge and memory of the original archeology department, can see that these words are well written and have a great style.
In addition, there is a calligraphy and painting inscribed with a poem:
"It's noon on the day of hoeing,
sweat dripping from the soil.
Who knows that eating on the plate is hard work
Every grain of it is hard work."
This is true. It is a poem of compassion for farmers by Li Shen, a poet of the Tang Dynasty. Among other profound things, it is often used to persuade people to save food and not waste it.
Like the calligraphy and painting just now, there is no signature, but in this calligraphy and painting, there is a painting next to the poem.
It depicts the scene of farmers still working in the fields at noon under the scorching sun. The whole picture is lifelike, as if it is happening in front of you.
It’s just that the background of the painting is all blood red, the sun is even more red and black, and the land under the feet of the farmers is even more bloody.
I don’t know if it was an illusion, but Li Yue always felt that the scene in this painting was very familiar, especially the farmers in the painting.
Suddenly Li Yue saw a dark sickle in the farmer's hand.
It was not surprising that the farmer was holding a sickle, but what made Li Yue concerned was that the sickle in the farmer's hand actually fused with the farmer's hand, making it look like they were one body.
Seeing this, Li Yue suddenly remembered that when he took the supernatural bus for the first time, he encountered a ghost on the bus. It was dressed as a farmer, and it also held a sickle in its hand. The sickle The hilt of the knife is also connected to the ghost's hand, just like the one in this painting.
No wonder he feels familiar.
"Is it a coincidence? No, it can't be a coincidence. In this terrifying world, there is almost no such thing as a coincidence. The person in the painting must be the ghost farmer I saw before." Li Yue said He said in his heart;
So Li Yue continued to look at the scene in the painting carefully. This time Li Yue vaguely saw the outline of a wooden house behind the farmer.
This house is very similar to the house that the ghost farmer walked towards after getting off the car, but because the painting is too blurry, it is still not completely certain.
But even this has surprised Li Yue.
I didn’t expect something like this to appear in this restaurant.
While Li Yue was looking at the calligraphy and paintings on the wall, Liu Yang and Ding Hui had already wiped out all the food on the plates in front of them, leaving nothing behind.
People who don’t know think the food is too delicious or they are too hungry.
After making sure that there was no trace of food left on the plate, Liu Yang and Liu Yang raised their heads. However, they did not greet Li Yue immediately, but kept rubbing their stomachs with their hands.
Rubbing your belly just like those who usually eat to support themselves.
Feeling the movements of the two, Li Yue retracted his eyes from the calligraphy and painting, and turned to look at Liu Yang and Ding Hui.
The two of them also turned to look at Li Yue at this time, but the movements of their hands did not stop. However, although they obviously wanted to say something, they did not speak for some reasons, but looked at Li Yue. cross.
When Li Yue saw the calligraphy and painting "Eating without speaking" on the wall, he knew that this should be a rule of the ghost restaurant, and he needed to keep quiet.
Therefore, he just nodded to Liu Yang and the other two, indicating that he understood.
Seeing this, Liu Yang and Ding Hui also breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, other people in the restaurant were still trying to eat the food in front of them. Some people were even vomiting while eating, but even so, they still did not give up.
As a burst of supernatural power appeared, the plates on the table in front of everyone disappeared instantly.
Seeing this, Liu Yang and Ding Hui let out a long breath, while those who had not finished their food felt like they were mourning, and some even cried.
"Why? Why did you let me experience such a horrible thing?" One of them yelled and cursed loudly;
The others also looked like they felt the same when they heard this.
"Boss, you are finally here. If you don't come again, we will be in trouble!" Suddenly Li Yue heard Liu Yang say;
But he still couldn't speak just now, why can't he now? Able to speak.
"What's going on?" Li Yue looked at Liu Yang and said;
At this time, Liu Yang looked unhappy, and so did Ding Hui. After a while, Liu Yang continued:
"Forget it, just when the two of us were about to enter the ghost restaurant to investigate, someone outside the door When I was there, I suddenly heard a strange fragrance.
"Then we felt the ghost inside our body was agitated, and then we lost control of our bodies. Under the control of the ghost, we walked into this room. Restaurant! ”
“Fortunately, when we sit down at the dinner table, our bodies regain control. "
"However, there were more than twenty people in the restaurant at that time, and there were people at almost all the tables. However, people were soon killed one after another by the ghost. ”
"After our observation, we found two patterns about this restaurant!"
At this point, Liu Yang, Ding Hui and Li Yue all looked at the calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall.
"That's right, you can't waste food, and you can't talk while eating!" Liu Yang said;
"Then what will happen if you violate the rules?" Li Yue asked curiously;
“If you violate it, you will die. Although the result is the same, the process is different. If you speak, the heads of these people will be cut off by invisible force in the next moment;
< br>
If the food is not finished, the next time the food is presented, the person will uncontrollably walk to the cashier and then disappear. "
Liu Yang and Liu Yang have just entered the ghost restaurant for several hours. In addition, many people have verified their lives, so they got a lot of valuable information.
"Didn't you try to leave? ? "Li Yue asked curiously;
"How could I not try? I tried to use the ability to teleport and take Ding Hui away from here directly, but I couldn't do it at all. There is something here that suppresses my ability to use it. Liu Yang said dejectedly; "And just when I was about to forcefully use my ability, both the ghost chef in the kitchen and the ghost boss at the cashier were looking at me. At that time, I had a feeling that if I forcefully If you use the ability, you will definitely be killed. ”
At the end, a look of fear flashed in Liu Yang’s eyes.
Li Yue nodded, and then began to sense himself to see if his ability was suppressed.
Sure enough, when Li Yue tried to use his ability, he felt a suppressive ability, but it was far inferior to the ghost school's suppressive ability. Li Yue broke through this suppression with just a little effort.
Seeing this, Li Yue suddenly felt confident. It seemed that although this ghost restaurant was good, it was still not enough for Li Yue.
However, Li Yue did not take action directly, because just now he discovered some details about this ghost restaurant.
This restaurant turned out to be a complex place composed of several evil ghosts working together.
From what Li Yue could sense alone, he could be sure that there were at least three ghosts here:
One was in the direction of the kitchen, and it should be the ghost chef; one was in the direction of the cashier, and it should be the ghost boss; and finally, One can't be seen, but it seems to be everywhere, filling the entire restaurant.
"Then how long will be the interval between each serving?"
Since he is not planning to take action directly for the time being, Li Yue needs to find out more information and prepare for the next action. .
After all, if you know yourself and your enemy, you will win every battle.
Even if Li Yue is very strong, he will not ignore the role of wisdom.
"After the meal is served, it needs to be finished within fifteen minutes. There should be no residue, not even a grain of rice. The plate will be taken away when the time is up; there will be a fifteen-minute break. Time repeats like this."
At this point, Liu Yang and the other two looked bitter. They had already eaten six or seven points of food, and now they were really exhausted.
Seeing the expressions of the two of them, Li Yue couldn't help but smile.
Since harvesting the starving ghost and confirming the information about the last fused ghost, the pressure on Li Yue has been greatly reduced. His mentality has also changed a lot, and his expression has changed a lot. Less, obviously a lot.
"Don't worry, I have a way to solve the food problem." Li Yue said easily;
Liu Yang and Ding Hui were overjoyed. They felt like vomiting when they saw the food now.
At this time Ding Hui suddenly said: "There is another important thing that Liu Yang forgot to mention just now;
Eating the food here will stimulate the resurrection of the evil spirits in the body. Although the amplitude is very small, but It's scary to add up to a small amount. If Liu Yang hadn't helped me suppress it every time I took a break, I might have recovered from the evil spirit!"
Liu Yang also nodded.
Li Yue quickly unfolded the ghost to cover the two of them. With the help of the ghost, everything in their bodies was seen and remembered by Li Yue.
At this time, Liu Yang's internal condition was fine. There was a Confused Ghost, and with the power left by Li Yue, both the Confused Ghost and the Turning Ghost continued to sleep.
However, the situation in Ding Hui's body was a bit bad, although Li Yue also left strength in his body.
However, there was not much power left at that time, and there was no second ghost in his body to fight against the wax ghost, so he was in a state of being consumed all the time, and there was not much left at this time.
Coupled with the excitement of the food in the ghost restaurant, the wax ghost has recovered a lot by this time.
As Ding Hui himself said, if Liu Yang hadn't used his confusion ability to help suppress the wax ghost, he would probably have died.
But now that Li Yue is here, this is no problem.
A bolt of lightning appeared out of thin air, entered Ding Hui's body directly, and went straight to the wax ghost. Finally, it formed a thunder prison and directly imprisoned the wax ghost in it.
Li Yue then took back Guixi.
At this time, Ding Hui clearly sensed that the wax ghost that was about to move had no movement at this time, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face.
At the same time, they also felt that their originally uncomfortably stretched stomachs were no longer uncomfortable, and their bulging bellies had also subsided.
But it was Li Yue who directly used the ghost to remove the food from their stomachs.
With nothing in your stomach, you naturally won’t feel full anymore. (End of this chapter)
