Midnight Forced Marriage

Chapter 24 The Vampire Store
He smiled, "Nervous? Ma'am, I'm a ghost. I've encountered places even darker than this. There's nothing to be afraid of."

After he finished I was noncommittal.

After driving for a while, my stomach started growling.Helpless, I gnawed on the bread and biscuits, but I didn't know what to eat.

Suddenly, Agu pointed to the front, and I looked forward curiously, and when I took a closer look, it was a shop.Looking from a distance, the store was lit with a faint light.

"It seems to be a restaurant, ma'am, should we stop and have a look?" Agu asked me as he continued to drive.

I hesitated for a while, feeling that my body is cold and my heart is cold now, and I urgently need some energy that can warm my soul to replenish.So we unanimously decided to check it out.

After stopping the car, I realized that the store is located on the side of the dirt road, surrounded by bushes.At first glance, the store looks not too small, but it is a bit weird against the background of the blood moon.

But we didn't think too much about it at the time, so we parked the car and walked in...

It turned out that this was a vermicelli shop, gray and white, and the light was very dark after entering.

Why do you say dark?There is an eerie feeling here.

"Agu, do you think it's colder in this store than outside?" I folded my arms and couldn't help asking.

He couldn't help but shivered, "A little bit."

"It won't...something weird happened, right?" Since I entered the village and encountered strange things that happened, I was a little scared, and I had to be vigilant.

"Probably not? Ma'am, what do you think can happen to a noodle shop?" Agu asked me in a low voice.

At this time, an old man appeared. He looked benevolent, but he was only wearing a black overcoat that reached to the bare feet, wrapping his dry and emaciated body.

"There are guests, please sit down quickly. Look at it's cold tonight." The old man greeted us warmly to sit down, and said with a smile on his face, "Do you two want to eat vermicelli? Our vermicelli here is competing. Beef And pork rib vermicelli is the signature of my shop."

Agu and I looked at each other, "Madam, what do you eat?" Agu asked me respectfully.

"What about you? Ribs?" After I asked, Agu nodded.

"Old man, a bowl of beef and pork rib vermicelli." I politely replied to the old man.

"Okay, wait a minute, both of you." The old man spoke slowly, turned around and said to himself, "It's been a long time since anyone has come here, so we have to keep it here." Then he staggered and disappeared into the hall.

Facing such an enthusiastic old man, this cold night gradually warmed up, but I always felt that something was wrong.

This time, I carefully looked at the environment here.

The tables are wooden, even a little classic.The edge of the table had red paint peeling off and was old, the edge was chipped in places, the grooves were full of black grime and looked greasy.

The store is actually paved with gravel roads, and some stones are slightly broken from the middle.

The gray and white walls are a little dirty, a large piece of white paint has fallen off, and some places are a little yellow, and the overall look is weird.

"Although this store is built in a sparsely populated place, the environment is really bad." Agu glanced at his mouth and complained, "Does the health bureau not care about it? Can such a store meet the standard?"

I glanced at him, "Let's talk about filling our stomachs. It seems that this old man is the owner of this shop. It's not easy to open a vermicelli shop at such an age. Why bother so much."

After I finished speaking, I found that there was a small incense table in the dark corner on the right, and a red Buddha's shell was enshrined on the incense table.

What surprised me was that it was not a Buddha statue sitting in the Buddha's seat, but a red plaster?

The plaster figure does not look large, but it can be seen that the fabricated plaster cast is a heavily painted man.

There were three sticks of incense burning in front of Fuxi, I inadvertently looked at the plaster a few more times, and for some reason, I realized that the plaster statue was looking at me?
I looked at Agu and was about to tell him what I saw when the smell of broth came from the kitchen.During these days in the temple, I really don't know what to eat.

Smelling this fragrance really made the five internal organs in my stomach churn.

"It seems that the old man is right. Just smelling the vermicelli is enough for me to slander." Agu also smelled it, with a greedy look.

I smiled, went to the corner and stretched my neck to look into the kitchen, and saw the old man cooking noodles.She was the only one in the small space.I ran back to the chair again.

Not long after, the old man came out with a big plate, and there were two bowls of vermicelli on the plate. With a wrinkled smile on his face, he said, "I've been waiting for a long time. Are you hungry?"

"Yes." I looked at the vermicelli on the plate, and answered without thinking.

The old man put the plate on the table, and Agu had quick eyesight and quick hands, so he couldn't wait to take his pork rib vermicelli, and then started to eat a big piece.

I saw that the old man's hands were dry and pale, his nails were very long, and a lot of dirt had accumulated in his nails. His appetite, which was as high as a mountain, collapsed in an instant.

Seeing that I didn't move the spoon, she sat across from me and smiled and said, "Don't you want to eat? These vermicelli are very fresh."

I groaned, thinking that it would not be easy for such an old man to work for half a day to make two bowls of noodles.I was so hungry before, but suddenly I don’t eat anymore, isn’t it strange?

I picked up a spoon and picked up half a spoonful of broth and put it in my mouth, how delicious it is!
The environment of this store doesn't look good, but the taste of this noodle is really good, nothing to say.

Seeing me say this, the old grandpa smiled and wrinkled his face, "Are you from outside the village?"

I nodded politely, "Yes." I lowered my head and took another sip.

Suddenly I felt something was wrong, I lowered my head and glanced at Agu, asking him if there is a village nearby?
Agu obviously also noticed the loopholes in the old man's words, raised his eyebrows and asked me if I had any.

This store doesn't go to the village in front, and doesn't go door-to-door in the back... To put it bluntly, there is no one at all.

At that time, Agu and I saw that it was a store, and we were so hungry that we didn't think too much about it.Now I finally know what is wrong.

"Grandpa, is there a village here?" I found myself tongue-tied.

Because I can't help thinking, even Youcun is also the weird village of the dead, right?There are more than 1000 miles away from here!

Unexpectedly, the old man suddenly laughed out loud, "Yes, why not? It's just that they don't come out easily."

How could I panic when I heard this?What does it mean that "they" do not "come out" easily?
And the old man's smile is a bit sinister, I don't know if I read it wrong.

When Agu heard that he was choked, he coughed violently.

Why does an old man who is over seventy years old say something so chilling?Often the more vague and mysterious the words, the more disturbing they are.

I laughed dryly and didn't ask any more, I was afraid that if I continued to ask, if there was nothing to be afraid of, it would be miserable.

Without Chu Yue, if we encounter something unclean, the two of us will be tigers without teeth. What can we use to fight these things?

Agu said to me in a low voice, "Ma'am, I didn't find any shops here when I drove to the Dong nationality."

I wiped the sweat from my brow, lowered my head and continued to drink the soup.

I just took a sip and found that the beef inside is very red, the color is not like the color of lightly cooked beef, it is as red as blood.

At this time, Agu scooped up a large piece of ribs, and I froze on the spot.In addition to a spare rib on the spoon, there is a piece of cooked finger next to it?
