0161 Kill the pig
Butcher Wei was very courageous. When most people encounter this kind of thing, their first reaction is fear.
He really cares about money.
Li Jun looked at this handful of copper coins. Is it someone's money?
Yin people's money is the copper coin used by ghosts. The problem is that there is no underworld in this world. Most of the people who go to the underworld and ask for rice are just to deceive the common people.
They are nothing more than mortals with stronger souls who can communicate with ghosts and gods and solve some of the troubles of mortals.
These ghosts and gods are generally very weak.
"Master Immortal, please drink tea."
A crisp voice sounded, Li Jun raised his head, and a pretty woman appeared in front of him.
The woman was wearing a pink silk silk and a pair of beautiful embroidered shoes. She had no socks and the exposed insteps were white.
Butcher Wei looked at the woman longingly and smiled innocently: "Madam, go get some good dishes. By the way, I've stewed the pig's trotters left over from the morning. I'm going to order some good wine. I'll treat the immortal master to a drink."
"Uh-huh."
Butcher Wei's wife covered her lips and smiled, and glanced at Li Jun secretly. Her peach blossom eyes were full of emotion, and her gestures were full of charm.
Butcher Wei's wife was very beautiful, fair and delicate, with small feet, and she looked like a weak willow supporting the wind when she walked.
Butcher Wei's height and shape are different from ordinary people. Standing together, they look like a giant and a baby. It's very strange. I don't know how they live...
"Isn't my wife pretty?"
Li Jun nodded.
Butcher Wei smiled naively and said quite proudly: "I rescued my wife. She is a very good woman."
"A good woman?"
Li Jun recalled the look in this woman's eyes before she left, and felt a chill.
…
The butcher's house in Wei.
There is a pine table in the courtyard. Three grown men are sitting on the table. A woman is waiting next to them. They are Li Jun, Wei Hu and Wu De. The woman is Wei Hu's wife, Li Honghong.
Li Jun then took a closer look at Li Honghong and found that she was not only beautiful, but also young. She was definitely no more than eighteen years old.
Wei Hu is an old bachelor, at least thirty years old. It’s not that Wei Hu’s family is poor. In fact, how many poor people are working as butchers?
However, Wei Husheng was ugly and engaged in the killing business. The most important thing was that his body shape was so different from ordinary people that few women dared to marry him because they were all afraid of death.
"Master Immortal, this pig's trotters were killed last night. My husband-in-law was unwilling to sell them this morning, so he kept them specially. I stewed them with rock sugar. They taste soft and glutinous. Master Immortal, please try them."
Li Honghong looked at Li Jun with a smile, scooped up the shiny pig's trotters with a spoon, and put them directly into Li Jun's bowl, touching Li Jun's arm intentionally or unintentionally.
Li Jun frowned and took his arm away calmly.
"Thank you, I'm a vegetarian."
Li Jun pushed the bowl away. Wu Deer, the idiot, understood this time and hurriedly helped Li Jun change the bowl to a new one. Li Jun winked at him.
"Wu De, please remember that when you join my sect, you need to be a vegetarian for three months before you can officially learn the art."
"Well?"
Wu De had just picked up the shiny pig's trotters with his chopsticks and was about to feed it to his mouth when he suddenly heard Li Jun's words. He was so frightened that his hands shook and the pig's trotters fell to the ground.
Wu De depressedly kicked the pig's trotter out, and Wei Hu's family dog picked it up.
"Master Immortal, look at this knife."
While Li Jun was chewing vegetarian vegetables, Wei Hu suddenly took out a broken knife from under the table and smiled naively: "This is the knife passed down from my family's ancestors, and it was also the matchmaker between me and my wife. Some time ago..."
Wei Hu told Li Jun.
Some time ago, he was on his way and missed the inn. He stayed at a farmhouse in the evening.
At night, the pigs raised by the peasant woman kept squealing. After the peasant woman heard that Wei Hu was a butcher, she begged him to help kill the pigs.
If a pig screams for no reason, it means that the pig is sick. If the pig dies of illness, the meat will not taste good and it will not be sold at a good price.
You have to kill the pig quickly while it's still alive.
Wei Hu originally didn't want to kill pigs outside, but the peasant woman begged and took out the copper coins. Butcher Wei reluctantly agreed.
After the agreement was made, the peasant woman went to the back kitchen to boil water and prepare pots and bowls for killing pigs. Wei Hu took out the butchering knife he carried with him.
A broken knife.
This broken knife was handed down from ancestor Wei Hu. It was used to kill thousands of pigs, and was finally broken into two halves, making it useless.
But when Wei Hu went out, he used to carry this knife with him as a protective knife.
Now that there is no other pig-killing knife around, Wei Hu plans to use this knife to kill the pig.
When he came to the pigsty, he saw a big fat pig huddled in the corner, with frightened and sad eyes, howling and screaming, and trembling all over.
Wei Hu's heart skipped a beat.
He has killed countless pigs, but this is the first time he has seen a pig look like this.
Although Butcher Wei felt uncomfortable in his heart, he still took the fat pig to the rice field.
He is extremely tall. It would take several ordinary people to subdue a big fat pig, but he can subdue it alone, easily.
"Hey, hey, help~"
Wei Hu shook his hand, and the big fat pig took the opportunity to break away, but did not run away. He just lay on the ground and howled pitifully. The tone of the howl was like... help.
Wei Hu was shocked.
He instantly understood that this fat pig was a human being, that there was something wrong with this farmer's family, that it was...a ghost.
Wei Hu took a deep breath and signaled the fat pig to stop barking. The fat pig understood and nodded.
Wei Hu protected the broken knife in front of his chest and sneaked to the back kitchen with Fat Pig.
Sure enough, the peasant woman was boiling water. The stove was filled with clothes and stained with blood. The farmer lit the clothes, took out a piece of white stuff from behind, put it into the stove, and lit it.
Crackling.
Wei Hu is horrified.
It turned out to be a long-legged white bone with fascia and white flesh on it.
Wei Hu was very courageous and had a strong sense of justice. His eyes instantly turned red, he took out the broken knife and rushed over.
"Suffer death."
Wei Hu yelled and slashed with his sword.
The peasant woman turned around, surprised, and a head rolled down. The peasant woman's family in the room next to her heard the sound and asked who it was.
Wei Hu said nothing. After killing the peasant woman, he took the fat pig and ran for about ten miles before Wei Hu stopped out of breath.
The fat pig humped him gently and turned into a young woman, Li Honghong.
Li Honghong told him with tears that she was an orphan visiting relatives. She went to a peasant woman's house and borrowed a sip of water. Unexpectedly...
After drinking the water, she felt dizzy and passed out. When she woke up, she found that she had turned into a pig and was locked in a pig pen.
The peasant woman's family visited her every day, fed her pig food, pointed at her, and discussed how to kill her for the New Year and divide the meat.
Li Honghong was very scared.
After several days of panic, Wei Hu finally arrived. From that day on, Wei Hu finally had a wife.
After Wei Hu finished speaking, he took a sip of wine and chuckled: "This is the story of my wife and I. I didn't expect that a rough guy like me could marry such a beautiful wife."
"Ms. sir, why are you bringing up old matters?"
Li Honghong smiled coquettishly and said: "I turned into a pig at that time. I must be very ugly, right?"
"Not ugly, not ugly. Even if the lady turns into a pig, she will still be whiter than other pigs, haha!" Wei Hu had a look on his face.
