Through the otherworldly peerless

Chapter 88 The Life of a Slave

Pickled kimchi is also Wushuang’s whim. His grandfather doesn’t like to eat pickled vegetables very much. He is getting old, and eating too heavy food is not good for his health, but his grandfather likes to eat garlic. Every year when fresh garlic is on the market, he can’t help it Soak a can of sweet and sour garlic.

There is no sugar or vinegar here, so Wushuang thought of the sour juice soaked in plums. The sour juice is sour and salty, which can be used as vinegar, but the sour juice tastes too astringent and has no sweetness. Wushuang thought about it, he Grandpa used to marinate sweet and sour garlic. He always poured the vinegar and sugar into the pot and boiled it, and then poured the garlic in after it cooled down.

Wushuang didn't know if the boiled sour juice could remove the astringent taste, so he might as well give it a try.

When he poured the sour juice into the pot to cook, he added the plums by the way. After boiling with the sour juice, the taste of the sour juice was not only so astringent, but even the original sweetness of the plums was not the same. After cooking it, Wushuang was overjoyed, and immediately poured the peeled scallion bulbs into the boiled sour juice. The bulbs are small, and soaked with plums to taste quickly, and they are not as spicy as garlic itself, Wushuang Give him to C, tell him that this thing is called kimchi, and ask him to take good care of this altar of kimchi.

C received such a task for the first time, at first he was a bit at a loss, so he just carried the jar wherever he went. The jar was not small, and it weighed at least [-] to [-] catties with acid juice added. C carried him in and out every day. , Even B complained about him, and at night he dreamed in his arms, "My jar."

"One time I slept in the middle of the night and got up to look for the jar," B wrinkled his increasingly plump face, "it surprised me, and he didn't answer when I called him. I found out later that he was talking with his eyes closed. Looking for jars, Your Highness, do you think it's strange that there are people looking for things with their eyes closed?"

Wushuang looked at the sickness squatting under the stove and burning firewood. The child's ears were so hairy that he couldn't tell, but his face was blushing. He smiled and said, "Actually, that's nothing unusual. It's just sleepwalking. It's like talking in your sleep." It's just a natural reaction."

"Sleepwalking?" Yi pinned, "Yes! That's really the case, sleepwalking!"

Wushuang: "Sleepwalking is fine, but don't let him go out, no one will see him at night, it's not safe."

Bing quickly raised his head and glanced at Wushuang, with slightly rippling emotions hidden in his brown eyes.

B was surprised: "Sleepwalking is still dangerous?"

Wushuang: "Sleepwalking is not dangerous, but walking with eyes closed is dangerous."

B came to a sudden: "Oh yes! Then I will have to watch him next time!"

Wushuang smiled: "Okay!"

Wushuang asked again: "Then what happened later? Did he find the jar?"

B smiled: "Ha! How could he find it? It was I who took his hand and touched the jar and told him that the jar was fine, so he was willing to go back to bed and sleep obediently."

Wushuang: "Hahahaha, this is too much fun!"

B: "That's right, it's fun!"

Wushuang: "C."

Bing looked up at Wushuang with a flushed face, Wushuang pointed to the tail he was holding in his hand: "That's not firewood."

"what!"

Bing was taken aback. It turned out that he didn't know just now that he used his own tail as firewood and was about to stuff it under the stove. Fortunately, Wu Shuang reminded him in time, otherwise they would probably have an extra grilled cat's tail for lunch now.

B pointed at C and laughed loudly: "C, you fool, hahahaha!"

Wushuang also smiled and looked at him.

In the past, C was always laughed at in the prison. This is the daily routine of all alien slaves. The older aliens would persuade him not to take these ridicules to heart, just get used to it, but every time he was pointed at and scolded When he was a pig, a traitor, or an inferior creature, C still felt sad and angry. He asked himself more than once, what did he do wrong?Why live in such humiliation?

But B's ridicule was different, C didn't feel the slightest discomfort, because C knew that they didn't have the slightest malice towards him, and they didn't mean to look down on him at all. Faced with such a smile, B felt very happy, so happy that he swelled , Just like his stomach these days, it is always slightly stuffed with delicious food, that feeling is so wonderful, it's almost like a dream.

In fact, at the beginning, C was worried that he was just dreaming. It wasn't until he ate the delicacies day after day and his stomach gradually swelled up that C found that all this was true. He seemed to feel that he had obtained Like a newborn, a new life, it turns out that this is the real life!

"What are you thinking about?"

You Jiuba looked at Wushuang holding a handful of beans in a daze, so he stepped forward and asked in a low voice.

Wushuang turned her head and saw that You Jiuba was only wearing an inner shirt, which was also a collared shirt, with a large piece of snow-white skin exposed on her chest.

Wushuang put down the beans, stood up and stretched out his hands to gather You Jiubai's skirts together, glared at him and said, "It's not midsummer yet, don't you worry about freezing if you wear so little!"

You Jiuba smiled: "I just took a shower, so I'll put on my clothes now."

Seeing that his hair was still dripping, Wushuang took a cloth towel and wanted to dry the water off You Jiubai's hair. After wiping, Wushuang realized that he still needed to put his feet on. Wushuang's face changed, and he stared. Looking at You Jiuba with big eyes, he asked, "You, have you grown taller?"

You Jiuba's eyes rolled upwards: "It seems a little bit."

Wushuang couldn't calm down anymore: "No, let's compare and see who is taller, C, come and see."

Wushuang asked You Jiuba to turn his back, and he turned around himself. B went to deliver kimchi to Wu Hui, and there was only C, who was almost invisible, in the room. C was surprised when he was called suddenly, and turned his head instinctively. I just looked for B and wanted him to come and see, but I remembered that B wasn't there at all.

"C, take a quick look, is Jiuba taller than me?"

Bing had no hope, so he could only do it by himself. He walked up to Wushuang and You Jiuchao, looked up at this and then at that, and saw that Wushuang opened his mouth, but didn't dare to speak.

Wushuang urged: "Did you see it? Am I taller than Jiuba?"

C said in a low voice: "...Yes, yes."

Wushuang blinked at him: "Really? You didn't lie to me?"

C shook his head.

Wushuang said again: "Good boy, don't lie."

Bing raised his head to look at Wushuang, his eyes were a little hesitant, he closed his eyes after thinking for a while and said, "I, I made a mistake just now, Master Jiu, Lord Jiuba... is taller than you."

B thought Wushuang would scold him, so he didn't dare to open his closed eyes, but after waiting for a long time, no one scolded him, let alone beat him. He heard Wushuang sigh sadly: "I knew , Obviously we used to be the same height, why Jiuba you grow faster than me? I also eat less than you! It's not fair!"

Bing opened his eyes, looked at Ai Chaoyou and complained: "It would be great if there was milk. Drinking milk is the longest. I am still young, and drinking it now is good. Maybe in the future I can grow a tall man of 1.9 meters." !"

You Jiuba: "You are not short now."

"Why not short? I am at most 1.7 meters, and I am a third-class disabled!" Wushuang turned to C and said, "C, you must remember to eat more, you are not yet an adult, you have more opportunities than me, eat If you grow taller, you won't be bullied in the future!"

C was afraid of being bullied, and hearing what Wushuang said, hope arose in his heart: "Really, really?"

Wushuang: "Of course! You must eat more!"

Wushuang knew that C ate very little every time. Wushuang recalled that when he was his age, every time he came back from school, he felt so hungry that he could eat a cow, but C only ate half a bowl of corn porridge. A dish is never served more than three times.

At the beginning, Wushuang didn’t say anything, just because he was afraid that C would suffer from indigestion if he ate a little too much like the first time. After all, his stomach was too small due to starvation, but after raising him for such a long time, I watched him eat pickled meat today. There is no discomfort in counting the bulbs, and Wushuang thinks it is time for him to increase his appetite.

"Think about it, when you grow tall and strong, like... like that Luji, will you still be afraid of him?"

Wushuang saw that when Bing heard the name "Lu Ji", his face changed instantly, and he couldn't help but start to shiver. The good medicine tastes bitter, and sometimes you have to take some strong medicine!

"That Luji must be very good at eating. If he eats a lot, he will grow taller and have great strength." Wushuang pretended not to see Bing's fear, and asked him, "Is he very strong?"

Bing trembled his lips, and said with a tense voice: "Big, very big, he... he can break an adult's leg with one kick, and kick a child flying."

Wushuang was startled: "He even beats children?"

Bing nodded: "Well, it's a Spirit Race, five years younger than me, who was kicked by General Lu for stealing horse feed."

Wushuang said angrily, "If he wasn't too hungry, who would eat the horse's feed? What's more, the other party is only an eight-year-old child, how could he stand his kick? Then what happened to that child?"

Bing gave Wushuang a dry look: "... he's dead, he's dead."

Wushuang was startled, looking at C, he looked terrified, but calm, Wushuang didn't know how a person could have these two emotions at the same time, but the expression on Cing's face at this moment was just like that.

Wushuang turned his head and glanced at You Jiuba, You Jiuba's expression was very calm, but he was not sad, because in You Jiuba's eyes, the life and death of anyone except him had nothing to do with him.

It's not that they are ruthless, it's that they are born to constantly pass by life and death, and after a long time, they will naturally become numb.

But C is different, You Jiuyao is undoubtedly cruel, that's because they have been struggling and resisting their fate since birth; and C, they don't know how to resist from birth, they are afraid of death, but when death comes, they And do nothing to accept it.

They have developed numbness from fear, so that when they face death, they are not only afraid of death, but also feel that this is their destiny, and they must learn to accept this reality.

This kind of thinking is sad and pitiful, even a little hateful, but the most hateful thing is those who see them become like this, this is such a cruel torture, and it will distort the concept and even the thinking of a generation.
