(You jump off the bike.)
(You speculate that the parents must have reached an agreement with the cat bride and mouse groom last night, and today should be the time to close the deal.)
Chapter 70 Mutton (1)
(You take off the blindfold.)
(Your left eyeball is red and swollen, and you notice a black flash not far away.)
(You come to the vortex and reach out to touch it.)
(The burning sensation in your eyes goes away immediately.)
(You find yourself standing in front of the kiosk.)
(Boss: What do you want from me?)
(You: I seemed to see something here just now, maybe it was my hallucination?)
(The boss didn't speak, just nodded.)
(You try to leave, but you find your eyes burn again just by staying away from the store.)
(You know that's Cyclops' cue to you.)
(You are back at the store.)
(Boss: What do you want to buy? Almond water?)
(You think for a moment.)
(You: Boss, do you know where lamb is sold?)
(Boss: Go to the vegetable market to buy mutton. My place is a small shop.)
(You: I'm talking about that kind of lamb.)
(The boss shakes his head.)
(Boss: I don't know what you're talking about, let's go.)
(You: What the hell is mutton?)
(Boss: If you don’t leave, I’ll call the police. Why would you buy such a thing at such a young age? Get lost, or I’ll call the police and arrest you!)
(Boss shakes his fist.)
(You curl your lips, cover your left eye and leave.)
(You take a short break on the side of the road before the signs of eye swelling go away.)
(You speculate that mutton is slang, and the boss should still be doing black intermediaries.)
(In some places, lamb and beef represent different kinds of drugs.)
(If this is the case, the parents are actually doing illegal things in the mutton business. This also confirms what grandma said, and the parents have betrayed their conscience.)
(You wait for a while, and the suona sounds again.)
(You quickly find a place to hide.)
(The procession reappears, but this time without the parents' car.)
(The mouse groom looks around on his horse, then walks towards the small shop.)
(The rat groom gets off the horse, asks the boss to buy a bottle of almond water, and then the wedding party disappears.)
(You froze for a moment, and took a sip of the almond water.)
(You re-see the rat groom and the wedding procession.)
(The mouse groom did not leave, but buried himself in digging a hole under the poplar tree next to the small shop. There was actually a board under the tree. He lifted the board and jumped in.)
(After a while, the mouse groom ran out carrying a small suitcase, and covered the board with soil again.)
(The welcoming procession starts again and leaves the town.)
(You hurried to the poplar tree and dug out the board again.)
(The board blurs in your eyes, and you take another sip of the almond water.)
(You lift the wooden board, and there is a bottomless passage below.)
(You grit your teeth and jump down.)
(It's pitch black, and you fumble around until you find the light switch at hand.)
(It's a huge cellar, roughly the size of a classroom.)
(The cellar is lined with rows upon rows of shelves filled with bloody hunks of meat.)
(The pungent smell of putrefaction and blood makes your brow furrow.)
(These are the so-called mutton.)
(If you look carefully at the texture of these pieces of meat, it is no different from ordinary lamb.)
(You can't tell if the mutton has other symbolic meanings.)
(You go to the end of the cellar and find a desk. You find a document on the desk, covered in thick fog, and you can only read part of the writing.)
(***contract)
(*** price is ***)
(Contractor: Gu**)
(This is supposed to be a contract, and the mist covering it may indicate that it is controlled by the unspeakable, and the cat bride and mouse groom may be the unspeakable of this copy.)
(The content of the contract is currently unknown, you speculate that the contract person is your father.)
(You open the desk drawer and find another Cyclops inside.)
(You suddenly feel a dampness on the top of your head.)
(You look up and there's a hunk of squirming mutton on the roof, with blood dripping from it.)
(All the lamb on the shelf falls to the floor and crawls toward you.)
(Lamb falls from the sky, covering your nose and mouth.)
(You feel suffocated.)
(Your eyes are dark.)
(you are dead.)
(The deduction is over!)
Gu Yi opened his eyes and met his neighbor's eyes.
"Isn't this Xiao Gu?"
"Uh... hello." Gu Yi waved to the neighbor awkwardly, "I'll hide here for a while, don't tell my parents, can you?"
"alright."
The neighbor blinked and pretended not to see Gu Yi.
Gu Yi squatted behind the door, listening to the sound of the suona fading away, and then ran out from the neighbor's yard.
There is a cellar under the poplar tree behind the small shop, and there is the other half of the Cyclops in the cellar, so the Cyclops will get hot when it is close to the small shop.
The blindfold cannot play its due role for the time being, probably because it is incomplete.
There are weird mutton in the cellar, and before entering, you must find a way to deal with those weird mutton.
"So... what exactly does mutton mean?"
Gu Yi touched his nose and whispered to himself.
The neighbor tilted his head to look over, and said with a smile, "Xiao Gu, do you want to eat mutton?"
"what?"
"Our family happens to cook mutton for lunch, would you like to try it?"
"No need, no need."
Gu Yi waved his hand, only then did he smell a fishy smell coming from the room.
I had been thinking about deducing the screen just now, so I didn't notice this.
"It's a pity." The neighbor shook his head and said, "It's very rare in our town to have a market. It's not easy to buy mutton."
"The bazaar? Where is the bazaar?"
"Don't you know? At Caishikou in the north, those dealers will go back tomorrow."
Gu Yi nodded.
There are no clues in the village for the time being, why not go to the market to have a look.
Gu Yi rode his bicycle and soon came to Caishikou in the north.
There are many street vendors at the entrance of the vegetable market, so crowded that Gu Yi can't get down.
There was a fishy smell on the floor.
There are not many stalls selling local specialties, but there are so many mutton sellers that you can see a mutton seller within two steps.
"Baa baa—"
A vendor even brought two live sheep for sale, and people who came to ask the price formed a long line.
"It's weird..."
"Baabaa!"
A lamb bit the rope and broke through the crowd and ran out.
Residents in the town ran over one after another, surrounded the lamb, and pressed it to the ground in a hurry.The peddler came over with a whip cursing, and gave the lamb two lashes severely.
"Baabaa!"
"Calling, screaming, calling you big, you were dishonest along the way, and you will be fined and not allowed to eat for three days!"
"What—"
The lamb was tied up and twisted in despair.
Gu Yi met the lamb's eyes, and he felt compassion in his heart, as if at this moment he had a spiritual resonance with the lamb.
"How much is this sheep?"
Chapter 71 Mutton (2)
"How much is this lamb?"
"Ah?" The peddler raised his head and looked at Gu Yi suspiciously, "What do you know as a child, get out of here quickly. If you want to buy it, you have to call your parents to buy it, right?"
Do you need parental consent to buy a sheep?
Gu Yi froze for a moment and looked around.
The customers who asked the price here were all a little older than himself, Gu Yi was silent for a moment, and ran out of the market with his head buried.
"Looks like it's going to be another way."
Gu Yi bought a peaked cap and a pair of masks at the entrance of the market, squatting on the side of the road and waiting silently.
Bazaars may have neighbors of their own.
Since the adults in the town are so taboo about buying and selling mutton, it is very likely that he will let his parents know when he appears in the market.Although I don't know the consequences of doing so, it will definitely increase the difficulty of clearing the customs.
Gu Yi took a sip of almond water out of boredom, just in time to see the family lead a lamb away.
If you read it correctly, that lamb is the lamb that tried to escape just now.
Gu Yi closed his eyes.
(Deduction begins!)
(You put on a mask, lower the brim of your hat and follow.)
