Spring River Flower Moon Night: Set of 2 Volumes

Chapter 57
"Zijin, I can only feel monsters that have evil spirits. I can't feel them at all, such as low-level and brainless monsters that only know how to eat!"

"You're joking..." Prince Jin couldn't close his mouth.

"For example," Fei Xiao explained to him, "it's like when you walk on the road and there are people everywhere, are you attracted to beautiful women or old ladies?"

"Beauty!"

"That's right, low-level monsters can't attract my attention at all."

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo , what should i do?"

Fei Xiao glanced at him depressedly, and sighed, "Eat first, I'll think of a way later."

"How long am I going to eat like this?"

"Eat until the hungry may be full." Fei Xiao just felt helpless, this kind of annoying little monster is the most annoying.

"When will it be full?" Wang Zijin stuffed food into his mouth again. At this time, the two of them were having lunch, and there were more than a dozen empty dishes piled up on the table. Wang Zijin's mouth was hardly idle, since yesterday Ate until noon today.

"Ordinary hungry may be transformed by people obsessed with eating before death. Although some souls are reincarnated, but the obsession with eating still remains in this world, they will become hungry. Once they are touched, There is no other way except to feed it."

"Don't talk about big things," Wang Zijin wailed while picking up vegetables, "Hurry up and get rid of it."

"It's up to you to get rid of it. This is your first time to get rid of a demon, right? Eat as hard as you can until it's satisfied." Fei Xiao called Xiaoer over as she spoke, and paid for their meals.

"Hey! I'm not full yet!" Wang Zijin yelled desperately when he saw it.

"We'll go out and buy steamed buns for you to eat. My money can't stand you eating like this."

"You have no humanity!" Wang Zijin wailed and was dragged out of the restaurant by him, but when he saw the steamed buns, he still had no choice but to pick them up and eat them.

Wang Zijin didn't care about the scholar's demeanor, and ate back to the inn while walking.

There are many little beggars on the side of the road, looking at the big bag of steamed buns in his hand, salivating.

After three days like this, no matter how much he ate, Wang Zijin still didn't feel full. Instead of gaining weight, he lost weight.

"Feixiao, is there an easier way?" Wang Zijin came to him with a mournful face, chewing his food, "It's so hard to eliminate demons like this..."

"Where is the hard work?" Seeing that he didn't even go downstairs, Fei Xiao didn't know where his hard work was.

"My teeth and cheeks are sore and painful. It's too painful."

Looking at his haggard appearance, Fei Xiao knew that it was not easy to keep eating like this. It was already remarkable that he could persist for three days. Ordinary people would be exhausted half to death in one day.

"Do you remember when you started to be hungry?" Fei Xiao said, "The hungry mayfly attached to you seems to be different from others, there is no time to be satisfied."

"What do you mean?"

"That means it might be the wrong place to eat?"

"What does it mean to eat in the wrong place?" Wang Zijin said as he scooped up another large spoonful of rice and stuffed it into his mouth.

"I don't know, maybe when it died it was just thinking about eating, but I don't know whether it was thinking about others or myself."

"Then what should I do?" Do I want to feed these people one by one in this Hangzhou city?

"That's why I made you think."

Wang Zijin hugged the rice bucket, rolled his eyes, and thought for a while, "I went home when it was raining a few days ago, and it seemed that a woman bumped into my arms, but there was no one there, and I started to be hungry after I came back. "

"What kind of woman is it?"

"It seems to be wearing gray cloth clothes, unkempt."

"where is it?"

"It's on the busiest street."

After hearing this, Fei Xiao rolled her eyes and asked, "Is there a market there during the day tomorrow?"

"Yes." Wang Zijin scooped up another spoonful of rice, not knowing what was going on with the market.

"Zi Jin," Fei Xiaoyu said earnestly, and then reached out to pat him on the shoulder, "Persist for another day, let's go look there tomorrow."

After hearing this, Wang Zijin wailed and nodded helplessly while hugging the rice bucket.

The next day Wang Zijin and Fei Xiao hurried to the market, Wang Zijin was still holding a lot of steamed buns.

The hawkers in the market, the bargainers who bargained, and all kinds of people, all gathered on this street, so it was very lively.Wang Zijin looked at the sea of ​​people, and felt baffled, wondering what Fei Xiao was up to.

As soon as the two entered the crowd, they were blocked by a little beggar.

The beggar's complexion was dark, and he looked only ten years old. He was dry and had little flesh, and his head was smashed like garlic. "Please, you two, let's enjoy the food."

When the prince saw him, he quickly hugged the steamed bun in his arms. He was really possessed by the hungry, and the first thing he thought of was to protect the food.

"Little brother," Fei Xiao smiled when she saw him, "I'll give you this copper coin, I have something to ask you." After saying that, she took out a large coin from her pocket.

"This beautiful old man, you can ask whatever you want!" When the child saw the money, the child immediately spat out lotus flowers.

Fei Xiao was very proud when she heard that, "Is there a dead woman in your neighborhood?"

"Woman?" The child wondered, "Hangzhou is such a big city, how would I know if a woman died?"

"There may be people around that woman who are starving. It is estimated that the situation is not very good. You should think about it."

"It might be the blind old lady's daughter. She just passed away a few days ago, leaving behind a nursing baby who cries every day in the shack with hunger, making people unable to sleep due to the noise..."

Hearing this, Fei Xiao pulled the corner of her mouth, revealing a hint of a smile, sure enough, he found her.

He immediately grabbed Wang Zijin and said to the little beggar, "Take me there."

"What is this for?" Wang Zijin asked all the way, seeing the little beggar pass through a narrow alley, and twisted several turns, finally leading them to a dilapidated tile-roofed house.

Smelly water flowed around the tile-roofed house, and two beggars were sleeping on the ground.When the prince came to see him, he suddenly felt that the steamed buns were not so delicious. This is simply not a place for people to stay.

Babies' cries were coming from a small tarpaulin hut next to the brick-roofed house, hoarse and weak.

"Let's go in and have a look," Scarlet said.He took the prince into the small hut, and saw an old woman in scanty clothes sitting inside, holding a child with a dull expression.

The child seemed to have been born not long ago, with his mouth open and crying, suffering from lack of strength and unable to cry.

"How long has this child not eaten?" Fei Xiao asked in a low voice.

"It's been three days..." The old woman was embarrassed when she heard the man's voice, and hurriedly grabbed the few rags to cover her emaciated body.

"Go and buy a bowl of porridge." Fei Xiao took out another big coin and threw it to the beggar who led the way.

The little boy got the money, ran out, and came back with a bowl of hot porridge after a while.

Fei Xiao took the porridge, handed it to the blind old woman and said, "Feed it to this child."

The blind old woman took it tremblingly, scooped up a little porridge with a small spoon, blew it cool with her mouth, and fed it into the baby's mouth little by little.

After half a bowl of porridge was fed, the baby finally stopped crying and snored contentedly in the warm arms of the old woman.

Wang Zijin, who was holding a steamed bun, suddenly exclaimed, "Huh? I'm full!"

"Because Hungry May has already left." Fei Xiao laughed after hearing this.

"Why?" Wang Zijin wrapped the remaining steamed buns in cloth and carefully placed them beside the blind old woman.

"Because the child's mother died, what she cared most about was that the child would not have enough to eat, so she left a ray of obsession in this world. Now that her wish is fulfilled, and the child is full, she will naturally leave."

When the prince heard this, he felt moved, and took out the money from his pocket and handed it to the old woman.

In the sound of her thanks, the two walked out of the simple shack, and it was already dusk.

"Fei Xiao," Wang Zijin sighed, "Mother's love is really great. Even though I am no longer in this world, I still care about my child."

Fei Xiao lowered her head and smiled without saying a word.

Wang Zijin looked at the colorful clouds that day, how long has it been since he saw his mother?During her travels abroad this time, does she also miss herself in the same way?Are you also worried that you will not have enough food and clothes?

Before he could finish thinking, Fei Xiao who was next to him picked up a folding fan and tapped him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Zi Jin, it's time for dinner, let's go to the restaurant."

Looking at his handsome face with a smirk, Wang Zijin felt that it was transformed into a demon, with his head shaking like a rattle.

"Don't mention eating to me, I don't plan to eat in the past three days." After that, he hurriedly walked away.

Fei Xiao was dressed in white and followed him with a smile on her face. Perhaps it would be a good thing for him to be possessed by Hungry now and then!

After all, steamed buns are much cheaper than wine and vegetables.
