I'm a chef in Infinity Thriller

"Little master, where are you going?" The old boatman opened his mouth to show his yellow teeth, and asked Qiuli with his dark old face.

"Old boatman, just show me around this town." Qiuli stepped onto the boat, and the boat shook a few times.

The old boatman smiled: "Okay, one tael of silver."

Qiuli took out a piece of silver, weighed it, and threw it over. The old boatman caught it with one hand, "You sit down, and we're off."

Qiu Li sat in the stern, looking at the river and the nearby houses. This place was once flooded, the color of the houses was wrong, and there was a sense of corruption soaked in water.

"Old Chuanjia, is the flood problem solved?" Qiuli asked.

"Solution? That's right." The old boatman seemed unwilling to talk about this topic.

"Young master's accent doesn't look like the one from our Xidu town."

"Indeed, I'm going to Longkou Town, Lao Chuan's house, is it far from here?"

"It's not far. It takes half a day by boat. Young master, you're bored sitting still. Why don't I tell you about our local attractions?"

"Okay, tell me, I'll listen." Qiuli suddenly felt that she had arrived at a scenic spot in a water town, listening to the boatman's chatter, her eyes glanced around.

This small town is a bit weird. Qiuli looked at the sky, the sun was still thin, the whole town was surrounded by water vapor, the light could hardly reach the buildings, and it was scattered in the air.

In the afternoon, there are few people on the street, but considering that the place has suffered floods and is currently depressed, it is understandable.

Before I knew it, I came to a place where there were waterfront shops on both sides. The sun had already sunk and the sky was gray. People on both sides of the strait put up lanterns one after another, all of which were white lanterns.

"Today's Ching Ming Festival, young master, do you want to buy some yellow paper to pay homage to the ancestors?" The old boatman pointed to a stone bridge in front of the waterway.

"There is a family selling yellow paper over there, and the price is fair."

Qiuli stood up abruptly, "Old boatman, is Qingming today?" It was clearly the vernal equinox before she set off, and now it has been more than ten days?
"That's still wrong? Do you want me to stop the boat and dock?" The old boatman stopped rowing the oar and looked at Qiuli with a strange smile.

Qiuli's heart trembled suddenly, she looked at the steps under the bridge beside the bank, "Well, let's stop here."

"Then I'll wait here for the young master." The old boatman stopped the boat against the river bank.

"Thank you." Qiuli leaped from the stern of the boat, lightly jumping onto the steps.

Qiuli herself was also taken aback, looking at the distance, her body turned out to be much lighter, she lifted her feet and walked along the steps to the street.

It was getting dark obviously, Qiuli stepped on the bluestone road and came to the shop introduced by the old boatman.

The shop is very old, it looks like a time-honored brand, with an old yellow flag floating above it, with only one word on it: "Xiang".

There is no wind in the whole street, and the gloomy water vapor in the air is everywhere. There are also white lanterns hanging on both sides of the shop, with candles burning inside.

Not only that, the lanterns in the whole street were all white. Looking at the two white lanterns in front of her, doubts arose in her heart.

A black and thin old man was sitting at the door of the incense shop, with gold ingots folded in his hand, he glanced at Qiuli, "My baby is a foreigner, everyone here is dead..."

Qiu Li was relieved, "I'm sorry, I really don't know."

"You didn't put the water in there, so you don't need to apologize." The old man entered the shop with a basket of gold ingots he had prepared.

Qiuli looked around. The street full of white lanterns made her feel uncomfortable, so she followed the old man into the house, "It's Qingming, I'll buy some yellow paper to worship my grandparents."

"Take whatever you want, it's all on the shelf." The house is a bit darker than the street, no wonder the old man squatted at the door to fold ingots, Qiuli took five knives of yellow paper and looked up and asked, "Boss, how much is it?" ?”

"No money, just take it. It's not easy for anyone in this world." The old man sighed, "Don't go out until it's dark, it's not peaceful."

Qiuli was stunned, "Didn't it mean that the national teacher has already taken down the evildoer?"

"National teacher? That turtle son, if I can be a few years younger, I would like to eat his flesh raw." The black and thin old man obviously couldn't contain his anger.

"Our town was drowned by him fighting with water monsters!" The old man said to Qiuli after spitting:

"It's getting dark, you go back quickly."

Suddenly he glanced at her again, stopped her, and handed her a stick of incense, "You take this too."

Qiuli took the incense stick and said, "Thank you, boss." She held the incense stick with five knives of yellow paper between her hands, and returned to the boat.

An identical white lantern was already hung on the bow of the boat. Qiuli glanced at it, and the old boatman walked slowly to the scull, put his hands on it, and shook it vigorously.

The boat swayed and drifted away in the waterway, and not long after, Qiuli saw the pier where she first boarded the boat.

The old boatman pulled the boat aside, "Here we are, young master."

Qiuli thanked her and jumped onto the pier. The alley was still deserted, not even the smoke from every household cooking dinner after dark, but there were several white lanterns hung on both sides.

She turned her head and was about to ask the boatman, the waterway is long, where is the shadow of the boatman.

Holding five pieces of yellow paper between her hands and holding a stick of incense, she walked in the alley, and the house she lived in had disappeared. After walking twice, she was sure it was gone.

Maybe the boatman sent it to the wrong place. Qiuli sighed and walked to the other end of the alley. This is a long street with dim white lanterns. There are one or two lanterns hanging on almost every house door. The gates are tightly closed. Close, there is no one on the long street.

The wind suddenly blew up on the ground, and a small rotating wind column blew up. She rubbed her eyes that were fascinated by the wind.

Seeing that some shops on the long street finally opened their doors for business, Qiu Li found that all the shops along the street had opened their doors after a while.

The oil lamp was lit, and the light wasn't too bright, but it was enough for Qiuli to see clearly.

One of them was a noodle restaurant, and the aroma was already overflowing. Qiu Li touched her stomach and found it was empty. With the feedback of the "green snake jade bracelet", she was actually not too hungry, but just a little bit greedy.

The customs here are indeed strange, other places are open for business during the day, but here it is at night, is it like in the main star time, this street is a night market?

Not only that, there were pedestrians on the street, and even the noodle shop had several people sitting there. Qiuli looked around, but no one paid attention to her.

She put away a piece of incense, holding five knives of yellow paper in her hand, walked to the street, and walked straight to the noodle shop.

This is a typical layout of a noodle restaurant in a small southern town. Qiuli looked at the diners who had already started eating. The green onion Yangchun noodles had no toppings, but the diners ate without looking up.

A short woman looked up from the kitchen, her face was slightly swollen, her eyes seemed to be awake, she glanced at Qiuli, then looked away again.

Qiuli found a vacant seat and sat down. Not long after, a bowl of Yangchun noodles was served, and no one spoke in the entire noodle restaurant except for the sound of noodles being slurped.

Is there only one kind of noodles here?Qiu Li saw that everyone was eating delicious food, so she couldn't help but want to try it.

Qiuli put down the five-knife yellow paper in her hand, picked up the chopsticks on the table, and just about to eat noodles, a diner suddenly raised her head, sniffed the air, and followed the smell to stare at Qiuli.

There is another chapter, which will be released at about eight o'clock in the morning~
