Immortality: Starting as a Butcher to Level Up in Cultivation!

"Quick, quick, don't wait!"

"Whoever is behind, hurry up and follow!"

In the early morning, the door of the butcher shop opened!

“crunchy”

The sound of a wheelbarrow pressing against the bluestone road broke the silence all around.

Zhao Mingjie, the third stall driver, personally led the team. Wei Hong, Li Daniu and other seven or eight people each pushed a wheelbarrow loaded with pigs and sheep out of the butcher shop, preparing to deliver goods to major restaurants.

At this moment, the night is blurry and dark, and there is a faint mist!

There was no one in the streets and alleys, and the atmosphere seemed a bit depressing.

"Brother Hong, don't be nervous." Li Daniu comforted with a smile: "Actually, delivery is not difficult. Usually, it is delivered to various restaurants first, and then to various wealthy households. You only need to deliver it to your door according to the order."

"But it's not always safe at night. Although the city of Shendu has a curfew, it can't handle the mingling of gangs. The price for dozens of pigs and sheep is as high as several hundred taels. We are afraid that some desperadoes will target us, so we must be smart."

"good!"

Wei Hong nodded repeatedly and scanned the surroundings with vigilant eyes.

In this kind of atmosphere, he really didn't feel safe. He always felt like someone was spying on him in the streets and alleys, which made his heart tremble and he didn't dare to relax at all.

Just as he walked through a street, he ran into a group of armored city guards.

They held torches in their hands and walked across the knife, their eyes looking fierce and scary.

"Stop, who is it?"

"Hey, Master, don't get me wrong, don't get me wrong!" Zhao Mingjie said with a familiar smile, "We are from Zhu Ji's Butcher Shop, we go out to deliver goods at night, we are definitely not thieves."

"Oh? Really?" The leader of the guard glanced at the convoy with sharp eyes, and then said with a smile: "It turns out to be stall owner Zhao, why are you personally delivering the goods?"

"Isn't this the Winter Clothes Festival? Major restaurants want more goods." Zhao Mingjie stuffed two pieces of silver without leaving a trace, and said with a smile: "Thank you, Master Jun. These are the guys from my butcher shop. It's convenient for you." "

"Yes!" The guard leader nodded with satisfaction, and then said: "Since you have delivered the goods, let's go, don't waste time."

"Yes, yes, thank you, Master Jun!"

Zhao Mingjie happily held his hand and continued to move forward with the team.

Zhu Ji's Butcher Shop is backed by the Hutou Gang and has some relationship with the city patrol army.

As long as you are not on a mission to hunt down thieves or fugitives, you won't be challenged if you give them some tea money.

After a while!

The motorcade stopped in front of a restaurant called Mingyuefang.

This restaurant occupies a large area, and two red lanterns hang high at the door.

Through the ajar door, you can see several young men who look like servants yawning while cleaning tables, chairs and benches.

"It seems that being a waiter in a restaurant is not easy." Wei Hong couldn't help but sigh in a low voice.

"Being a waiter in a restaurant is naturally not easy." Li Daniu agreed: "You work hard for only one or two silver a month. You wake up earlier than a chicken, go to bed later than a dog, and you often have to deal with difficult customers. Being beaten and scolded.”

"Old Liu, please inspect the goods."

Zhao Mingjie stepped into the door and handed over his hand to a middle-aged man in gray clothes and long coat who was dozing behind the counter.

"Oops, the third stall guy actually came to deliver the goods in person. It's a rare customer." The middle-aged man stood up and greeted him with a smile.

Zhao Mingjie said helplessly: "It's the holiday today, and every restaurant is fully prepared to welcome guests. Our butcher shop can't hold back. Your family has ordered eight pig feet, 120 kilograms of pork, 50 kilograms of pork, 60 pounds of mutton and offal, please order!”

"Easy to say!"

The middle-aged man called two boys to come over and help.

In a short while, I finished counting the pork and mutton, paid for the goods, and received them!

Zhao Mingjie exchanged greetings with others with satisfaction, and then waved: "Let's go, let's go to the next house, hurry up, don't waste time."

The crunching sound of wheels sounded again.

The mighty motorcade kept marching on the street.

Delivering fresh meat to restaurants one after another.

Before you know it!

The convoy arrived at a long street by the river.

The place is filled with dense willow trees, their branches and leaves swaying in the wind, which looks particularly eye-catching in the dark night. Occasionally, you can see brightly lit brothels and boats on the river.

Waves of mist floated in the wind, making the atmosphere even colder.

"Beep, bab, bab..."

A high-pitched and soft singing sound came from afar.

In the motorcade, Lu Kang, who has been in and out of brothels all year round, couldn't help but laugh strangely and commented: "This Qingping tune has a bit of charm. I don't know which young lady from the boathouse sang it. It sounds quite seductive."

"Still having fun in the early hours of the morning, these dogs really know how to enjoy themselves, shameless people!" Jiang Kui cursed and took a mouthful of thick phlegm.

"You two really laugh at fifty steps, how can you have the nerve to laugh at others as shameless people? If the money hadn't been spent, wouldn't you hang out in the hook bar every day?"

"That's right, be careful not to get sick."

"Hahaha, it doesn't matter. If you get an internal disease, it will be cured..."

The men laughed and joked one after another, and they were even more excited when they talked about dirty things.

However, Zhao Mingjie, who was walking in front, changed his expression on the spot and quickly raised his hand and said: "Hush, be silent!"

Wei Hong was startled and noticed something was wrong.

This singing sound clearly did not come from the boat, but came from all directions.

It was vaguely as if someone was singing softly in my ears.

All of a sudden!

Everyone just felt like they were surrounded by coolness.

It seemed like there was a pair of eyes staring at me in the dark.

Unconsciously, everyone's hands and feet became a little stiff.

Not far away!

Two big red lanterns suddenly lit up at the door of a house.

They were dazzling and scarlet, making people shudder.

"Oh no, this, this is Green Willow Street!" Li Daniu was so scared that his face turned pale: "Before the rich Li family was weirdly exterminated, someone heard singing."

"Hiss!"

Everyone took a breath of cold air.

Zhao Mingjie was so shocked that he stepped back repeatedly. He took a few deep breaths and whispered to everyone: "Quick! Take a detour, don't talk, don't look around, lower your head and leave quickly!"

"Hong Ge'er, follow me!"

"Go faster!"

Everyone pushed the wheelbarrow in a panic and took a detour.

It was not until they were a hundred meters away that the singing lingering in their ears gradually disappeared. After confirming that no one was possessed by the weird, everyone silently breathed a sigh of relief.

"Li Daniu, do you want to die?" Zhao Mingjie wiped his cold sweat and cursed: "Since you knew something happened in the Li Mansion, why didn't you tell us in advance? You want to kill everyone, right?"

"Third boss, I am innocent." Li Daniu defended aggrievedly: "This matter has been a hot topic, I thought you knew it."

"You dare to talk back?" Zhao Mingjie glared in anger.

"Third boss, calm down." Wei Hong hurriedly advised: "We'd better leave quickly. Although we don't know if there is really something strange, it's not a good thing to stay here."

"Yes, let's go!"

Zhao Mingjie took the opportunity to lead the convoy away quickly.

"Damn it, it's too scary. I won't go to Green Willow Street next time, even if I'm killed."

"That's right. There's something strange going on at the foot of the imperial city. How can people live like this?"

"Hehe, we're still lucky. I heard that several villages outside the city have been hit by strange things recently. Everyone in the village has died. The second-in-command and his team are always scared when they go out to collect pigs."

"What's that? Qingzhou was hit by drought and famine some time ago. The land was barren and there were strange things everywhere. I don't know how many people died!"

The people who survived the disaster were talking about it, and everyone was scared.

Wei Hong's face was not very good either. He didn't expect that just coming out to deliver goods would be so dangerous.

If he was unlucky, he would probably die inexplicably today, right?

"We must become stronger as soon as possible!"

Wei Hong breathed a sigh of relief, secretly thanking himself for escaping the disaster.

But just as he was about to leave, a scream came from the convoy.

"Where are Lu Kang and Jiang Kui?"

"Damn it, why are they gone?"

Everyone gasped in shock.

A chill instantly struck their hearts, causing their hands and feet to stiffen.
