Underworld Character Simulator [Liao Zhai]
Chapter 37
Wang Zifu stayed here for one night, and on the second day, several people had breakfast in the house.
Although Xiaorong was said to be a maid, she was actually like a family member to Yingning and Granny Qin, and she ate at the table with them, so several people sat around the table to a full capacity.
"It's rare in our house to be so lively. Come, eat, eat, you're welcome."
Probably because most of the older people like to be lively, Granny Qin is very happy at the moment, she will let the prince convince you not to be polite, and then she will add a chicken leg to Gu Yunchu.
At this moment, there was a hasty knock on the door outside.Everyone couldn't help turning their heads to look suspiciously.Granny Qin, the host family, was the most puzzled. After all, their family was ghost foxes. Although they lived in the village, they had little contact with people.It's been two days since Gu Yunchu and Wang Zifu are both rare and rare, and there was another knock on the door this morning?Who is this again?
Xiaorong put down the bowl and chopsticks.
"I gonna go see."
Unexpectedly, not long after she went out, everyone heard a scream in front of her.
Grandma Qin was taken aback.
"What happened?"
Gu Yunchu immediately stood up.
"I gonna go see."
Wang Zifu originally wanted to follow, but then he saw Granny Qin about to stand up on crutches, so he hurried over and reached out to support the old man.
Ying Ning on the side froze for a moment.
Because she knew that her adoptive mother was a ghost, neither she nor Xiao Rong paid attention to this point on weekdays. After all, a ghost like Granny Qin would never fall on the ground because of her unsteady legs and feet. Crutches are nothing more than a habit before death.
But Wang Zifu obviously didn't know.While helping Granny Qin to go out, he also made a gentle voice to draw attention to the threshold.He was praised by Granny Qin for a good meal.
Noticing that someone was looking at him, Wang Zifu raised his head, and met Ying Ning's eyes, and saw Ying Ning suddenly smiled at him, and then smiled and moved to Granny Qin's side.
"Mom, I'll help you too! Be careful and pay attention to the threshold."
As if thinking of something funny, she couldn't help laughing again.
Granny Qin knew what Yingning was laughing at.It's just that she thinks it's fun for her to pretend to be an ordinary old woman in front of outsiders.
"You, you, you were too spoiled when you were young, and you grow up to be so cute. What will you do in the future?"
Ying Ning just smiled and didn't speak.
This appearance really made Granny Qin speechless when she wanted to reprimand her, so she could only smile helplessly.
At the same time, Gu Yunchu had already arrived at the entrance of the front yard, and saw Xiao Rong standing at the entrance with a face full of surprise, and there was a person lying on his stomach on the steps of the entrance.
A skinny man with a foul smell, skinny like a beggar, he is really too thin, seeing him, Gu Yunchu really understands what it means to be so thin that he loses his appearance.
He looked almost inhuman, with sunken cheeks, slender limbs, dry like a bundle of dead branches, which made people feel horrible. How could a person be so thin? die?
Obviously, Xiao Rong should have been frightened by this man when he opened the door just now.
Gu Yunchu subconsciously took a step back.
I was afraid that if I took a breath, I would blow the opponent to a bone.
Seeing the man muttering weakly, she turned to look at Xiaorong.
"Does he want to beg for a meal?"
Xiao Rong shook his head.
"No, it seems that he... wants to come for a drink."
Gu Yunchu was taken aback.Carefully walked over to listen carefully, but the person lying on the ground suddenly grabbed Gu Yunchu's ankle.Like a hungry ghost.
"Wine! Give me wine!"
What the hell!
Gu Yunchu was so frightened that he took a step back subconsciously, only to hear a click.After the man screamed, his arm was dislocated.
The beggar turned pale and lay on the ground hugging his arm in panic.
"My arm... I can't feel my arm!"
Ying Ning's brisk voice came from behind?
"Yunchu, did you beat someone up?"
And the mother-in-law Qin and Wang Zifu who came behind looked at Gu Yunchu in confusion, and then at the beggar who was crying in pain on the ground.
The younger sister of the system watching the excitement: [Oh, huh~]
"I'm not, I didn't, I didn't do anything! Yes... He came to grab my feet first, and I just took a step back, and his hand was just like that."
Gu Yunchu hurriedly came up with three consecutive denials.Then, she squatted down and touched her ankle that had just been grabbed.He looked as if he had been severely injured and his life was not long.
"If you really want to say, he grabbed my foot so hard just now, my foot still hurts!"
Thought you were the only one who could howl?
She will too!
Dare to touch her?
Believe it or not, she just lay down on the spot!
I have seen Gu Yunchu's majestic princely costume on the battlefield: ...
Xiaorong, who watched the whole process from the sidelines: ...
Even the beggar who hugged his arm and wailed was stunned by Gu Yunchu's naked touch, and stopped his voice.
After all, Xiao Rong is a kind fox, he quickly stood up and cleared Gu Yunchu's innocence.
The beggar looked at Gu Yunchu's staring eyes, and also expressed that he was at fault first.
Gu Yunchu immediately straightened his back and said to Ying Ning.
"Look, I said I didn't hit him!"
She is not someone who beats beggars in the street in broad daylight!
Ying Ning laughed.
"Then your leg doesn't hurt anymore?"
Gu Yunchu paused.Then said cheekily.
"... Feel it carefully, it hurts a little at first, but it's all right now."
As soon as these words came out, Ying Ning burst out laughing.The others couldn't help but laugh too.
Afterwards, Xiao Rong checked the beggar's injuries.It was found that it was just a dislocated arm, so he said.
"I've also learned a bit of bone-setting art, don't move, I'll pick it up for you."
After the beggar connected his arm, he sat on the ground and moved carefully a few times, and found that it was all right, and finally stopped howling.
Seeing that he was skinny and skinny, Grandma Qin couldn't bear it.
"Are you hungry? Xiaorong, go get him some food..."
Unexpectedly, when the beggar heard this, he seemed to turn on some switch, and prayed to Granny Qin again like a starving ghost.
"No...don't want food, I want wine, I want wine! I beg some kind people, please be merciful, give me some wine!"
He knelt on the ground and kowtowed.Because of his weakness, he fell to the ground after knocking twice, and fell back to the ground again.But even so, he still stretched out his thin arms like dead branches.Words of madness and longing.
"Wine... please... just a little, give me some wine, a little wine..."
In the end, his sanity that had been sobered up by the pain disappeared again, and he was bouncing and rolling on the ground like a fish that was about to die of thirst, with his hands pinching his throat.The cheeks were already sunken, and the face that couldn't be seen was like a starving ghost climbing up from the [-]th floor of hell.Make an inhuman roar.
"Wine... Quick! Quick! Give me wine! Give me wine!"
Some people can accept beggars begging in front of the door, but it is scary for a lunatic to mess around in front of the door.
Everyone was a little surprised by his penetrating appearance.What kind of alcoholic is this, so skinny that he could fly straight to the moon as soon as the wind blows, and he is still thinking about the contents of this glass, could it be that he wants wine or dies?
In fact, after the beggar entered the village, he also begged for wine at the door of almost everyone in front of him, but because of his crazy and frightening appearance, everyone was afraid of causing trouble.So the doors are closed.
But fortunately this time, he met Yingning's family, who were very courageous and could be considered a wealthy family.Granny Qin thought about it, and asked Xiaorong to get the wine.
Anyway, the women in the family don't like to drink, and the old wine left by her husband before his death is useless.
After a while, Xiaorong came with a jar of wine and a big bowl.I was thinking of pouring it into a bowl for the other party to drink, but the beggar, who was so thin that his arm would be dislocated when he pulled his arm, has strength now. At this moment, he seems to only have wine in his eyes, without any sense, so he directly grabs Xiaorong to take it. The wine jar, pat open the mud, and then start pouring it into the mouth, the gurgling is faster than people drinking water!
Granny Qin hurriedly said.
"Hey, this is a very old brew. If you drink so much, you won't be afraid to die of drunkenness!"
What she said wasn't to scare people. It's not uncommon for someone to drink too much and die!
The beggar ignored him and greedily drank all the wine. Gu Yunchu couldn't help but frown a little.After all, most people don't like this kind of alcoholic alcoholic.
But after drinking a jar of wine, the beggar seemed to regain some sanity.He wiped his mouth and smiled wryly at Granny Qin.
"Thank you for the kindness of the old man. Please don't worry. I have never been drunk in all these years. Once I was rewarded by a rich man. I drank eighteen altars of good wine in one hour without getting drunk. .”
Ying Ning suddenly laughed.
"You are so good at bragging. Eighteen altars of good wine are several times as tall as you. You can drink them all in one hour without bursting your belly? Could it be that there is a hole in your stomach? How much do you drink?" How much is missing?!"
The beggar's smile became more and more depressed.
"I'm really not lying. When I was young, I didn't like to drink alcohol. I got drunk when I got drunk. But one day, I suddenly fell in love with this drink. I couldn't bear the hunger and thirst if I didn't drink it for a day. In the end, I became crazy. I used to be a well-to-do family with parents, wife and children, but because of this incident, I gradually lost more than half of my family fortune. I saw that this was not possible, so I left home by myself in order not to burden the old and the young in the family. beggar."
Speaking of this, he smiled wryly again.
"I also thought about just getting drunk to death like this, but I just don't get drunk after a thousand cups."
"This is really weird."
Granny Qin quietly looked at Xiaorong.
"Ordinary people may be able to drink a thousand cups without getting drunk, but drinking eighteen altars of wine without bursting their stomachs is not something ordinary people can have."
Xiao Rong shook his head slightly at Granny Qin.
Gu Yunchu saw all this in his eyes.
Obviously, Granny Qin doubted the identity of this beggar human being. In fact, Gu Yunchu also had some doubts, but judging from Xiaorong's shaking of his head, this person seemed to be the same?
Then why is it that a person can have such a skill, is it a natural talent?
This doesn't seem like a good thing, or is it a strange disease?
Gu Yunchu was puzzled, at this moment, she seemed to have remembered something.Turn to look at that man.
"You said you suddenly became addicted to alcohol one day? Tell me carefully."
The beggar didn't know, so he just thought she was curious. He had encountered this kind of situation before, so he talked about his tragic experience.
After listening to it, Gu Yunchu said thoughtfully.
"I seem to have heard of your strange problem."
When the beggar heard this, he raised his head suddenly.
"Really?"
The rest of the people also looked over curiously.
Gu Yunchu nodded. "I once heard that someone is fond of wine, drinks every day, and also never gets drunk. The reason why this person is so is because there is a wine worm in his stomach."
Ying Ning looked over curiously.
"Wine worm? What is that?"
Gu Yunchu recalled the story of "Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio" that he had read.
"The wine worm is the essence of wine. It likes to get into people's bodies and control people to drink continuously. In fact, the wine will be drunk by the wine worm. That's why people who drink will never get drunk."
People parasitized by alcohol worms: drink, but not completely.
The beggar said quickly.
"Then... does that girl know how to deal with this wine worm?"
Gu Yunchu looked at the slight light in his eyes.After thinking about it.
"There is a method, although I'm not sure if you are a wine bug, but you can try it."
Then everyone moved to the front yard, and Gu Yunchu asked someone to find hemp rope and a jar of good wine.
The younger sister of the system asked: [Is this a story in "Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio"? 】
Gu Yunchu: [Well, this story is the most impressive to me. 】
As she said that, she directly recited the full text of Jiu Chong to the system sister, it was still in the classical Chinese version.In order to show off their cultural heritage.
She, Gu Yunchu, Wenhua Yiner!
The system sister was suspicious.
There are so many stories in Liaozhai, some of which Gu Yunchu had forgotten long ago, such as the one who made animals. She didn't remember that she had seen such a passage until the matter was over.
Then how could this wine worm impress her so deeply, even far surpassing painted skins and painted walls?
Gu Yunchu, who was tying up the beggar with hemp rope, paused slightly when he heard this question, and his face flashed with embarrassment.
[I am ashamed to say that when I was just in the first grade of primary school, I was young and ignorant. After reading this story, I always thought that there was such a wine worm in the belly of those beer belly uncles who like to drink.However, my deskmate's father is this uncle with a beer belly who is addicted to alcohol. How can that uncle treat his son and wife well, but as he gets older, he likes to drink more and more. For this reason, he and My wife always quarreled, and even rushed to talk a few times, and seemed to be on the point of divorce. Because of this, my deskmate also hated his father's drinking.So, I told him about the wine worm in his father's stomach. 】
System sister: [So your tablemate told his father this story? 】
【……No. 】
Gu Yunchu was silent for a moment, then said.
【Hearing this, he hated the wine worm in his father's stomach to death, so after another quarrel between his parents, he waited for his father to fall asleep, and resolutely picked up the insecticide at home... 】
After all, children don't want to get so much. If they want to kill insects, they will naturally use insecticides.
So imagine that when the father fell asleep in the middle of the night, he heard a strange sound, and there was a strange smell in his mouth. When he opened his eyes, he saw his son standing at the head of his bed in the pitch black. Gougou looked at himself.
This scene was scary enough, and when he turned on the light, he found a bottle of insecticide spray in his hand, and he had a strange smell in his mouth.And the son really said in a day or two: "Dad, there is a bug in your stomach that likes to drink, I will kill it for you!"
The younger sister of the system was also silent: [... Is your deskmate still alive? 】
After all, that old father was almost killed by his own son.
[I probably didn’t spray a few times at that time, but that uncle still went to the hospital overnight for gastric lavage, and my deskmate took two days off before going back to school because of a swollen buttock.By the way, because this guy confessed to me, I was fined several days of sanitation duty. 】
Thinking of the situation at that time, Gu Yunchu still felt aggrieved. After all, she really just shared a new story with her friends. Who knew that little fool had such strong hands-on skills!
Gu Yunchu, who had tied up the beggar, slapped the mud off the wine jar.Smelling the mellow aroma of wine, he said lightly.
[However, the uncle seemed to realize the psychological harm to his son from his constant drinking and quarreling with his wife, so he quit drinking. 】
Of course, it may also be that he was frightened by his son's "insect killing" in the middle of the night.
I'm afraid that I won't kill the 'wine worm' in my stomach again.Maybe one day the son will directly stab him quietly.
On the other side, the eyes of the beggar who was tied to the pillar became straight when he smelled the aroma of the wine, and he stretched his head towards the wine jar.
The wine jar was not far from his feet, and he could see the liquid from the mouth of the jar when he lowered his head, but his hands and feet were tied tightly, and he couldn't move at all. I remember he struggled desperately, kept shaking his head, and kept screaming Asking for wine, he doesn't look like a living person, but like a wild beast.The rough hemp rope has worn the skin of the hands and feet, and it seems that there is no pain.
Seeing the hemp rope stained red with blood, Ying Ning and the others couldn't bear it and didn't dare to look more.
At this moment, Xiao Rong said in surprise.
"Look!"
Everyone looked and saw that the beggar opened his mouth, and a strange thing exposed his head, and then the beggar spat out the thing in his mouth, and the thing fell straight into the wine jar.
Everyone looked down and found a blood-red chubby bug swimming around in the wine.Obviously this is the wine bug!
Xiao Rong looked at the bug in the wine jar, and then at Gu Yunchu.
"Miss Gu is really well-informed. I never imagined that there is such a thing as a wine worm in this world."
She, a fox demon, doesn't know about this kind of bug.
Gu Yunchu smiled.
"I also found out by chance."
And the beggar spat out the worm, he felt indescribably light all over his body, smelling the aroma of the wine, he didn't feel like drinking at all.He didn't care that he was still tied to the pillar, and when he was sure he was well, tears welled up in his eyes for a moment, and he thanked Gu Yunchu with sobs. The tears kept sliding down the sunken cheeks and dripped down into the wine jar below.It was as if he wanted to cry out all the grievances and despair he had suffered all these years.
Seeing that he was a big man crying and hiccupping, Granny Qin hurriedly asked someone to put him down.
"Stop crying, you're hungry, we'll get you something to eat. Since you said that your home is not far from here, then I'll ask someone to take you back. After you go home, live a good life with your family. "
The beggar choked up again and quickly said thank you.
Go home... After wandering for so many years, he can finally go home!
It seemed that Ying Ning's house was destined to be extraordinarily lively today. After entertaining the beggar, the people hadn't sent him away yet, but in the afternoon, people came to the door again.
"A fox ran into the house to make trouble?!"
The prince was taken aback and looked at the old servant at home.
The old servant nodded quickly.
"Yes, young master, the old lady was frightened, and she is still lying on the bed. The young lady is so frightened that she is paralyzed. You can go back with me and have a look."
When Wang Zifu heard this, he subconsciously looked at Gu Yunchu. After all, in his heart, Gu Yunchu was an expert.
"Miss Gu, do you know that the fox is causing trouble in this family, how can I solve it?"
How did Gu Yunchu know that she could remember Jiu Chong's solution mainly because of his tablemate back then, "filial piety touches the sky", as for the fox making trouble...
"I'll go over with you to have a look."
Grandma Qin was taken aback when she heard about the fox's mischief, and then hesitated for a moment.
"Since that's the case, why don't you bring Ying Ning and Xiao Rong with you? I've wanted Ying Ning to meet her aunt a long time ago, but I didn't have the chance for a while, so I'm going with her now, and I can take care of her in front of the bed."
Of course, making Yingning recognize her aunt's family is one of the reasons, and because Xiaorong is a fox demon, since there are foxes in Wang Zifu's house, Granny Qin kindly wants Xiaorong to help out.
In this way, the previous beggar was not good enough to stay here. After all, a stranger who met by chance, no one would trust him to live with Granny Qin.
So Wang Zifu waved his hand, thinking to take everyone away.When he arrived in his village, he happened to know that someone often went to the beggar's house to buy and sell goods, and he happened to ask that person to take the beggar back.
However, Granny Qin probably feared that she was a ghost and would not be able to walk in the sun without a shadow, and she didn't want to go out to scare people, so she reasoned that she was old and frail and could not walk far.
When they arrived at the place, Gu Yunchu found that Wang Zifu's house was quite big.Not to mention pavilions, towers, pavilions, carved beams and painted buildings, but in this village, he should be considered a wealthy household.
Wang Zifu told the old servant and asked him to help take the beggar to resettlement first.Then he took Gu Yunchu and others into the inner courtyard and went straight to his mother's bedroom.
The doors and windows inside were closed, he knocked on the door, and a maid came to open the door.
After entering, bypassing the screen, I saw a middle-aged woman lying on the bed, with a pale face and closed eyes.
And a teenage girl was sitting by the bed crying.Seeing someone coming, she looked up, and suddenly she was pleasantly surprised.
"elder brother."
Then wept again.
"Why did you come back, mother... Mother has been in a coma for a long time!"
When Wang Zifu saw his mother like this, his heart tightened.
"Have you invited the doctor?"
Wang Zifu's younger sister, Wang Ziyue sobbed.
"I've already been invited. The doctor said that my mother was frightened. He gave her an injection and said that she would wake up in half an hour. After waking up, drink more soothing soup. It's just..."
She twisted her veil and looked around the corners with some fear, as if an evil spirit would come out of the darkness at any time to eat her.
"It's just that the fox said that he will come again, brother, what should we do?"
Prince Fu frowned.
"Tell me in detail, what's going on?"
Wang Ziyue wiped away tears and spoke slowly.
Only then did everyone know what was going on. It turned out that Wang Ziyue had a strange dream last night.She dreamed of a man with a tail dragging behind his ass, who said he wanted to have sex with her.
Wang Ziyue was naturally unwilling and woke up while struggling.Find yourself dreaming.
This kind of strange dream is really scary. After she woke up last night, she didn't dare to sleep anymore. As a result, she was too sleepy when she was in the house at noon. She cried out in her dream, Mrs. Wang and the servant girl rushed after hearing the sound, and saw that she had taken off her coat, and a fox sprang out of the room. Because Mrs. Wang blocked the way, the fox opened its mouth and scolded and got away.Still jumping up, the fangs and sharp claws were about to attack Mrs. Wang. Mrs. Wang backed away in fright, fell to the ground and fainted from fright.
Wang Ziyue woke up when she heard her mother's scream, but the fox had already disappeared, and she only saw her mother fainted on the ground.The servant girl also turned pale with fright.
Not only did Wang Zifu get angry when he heard these words, but Gu Yunchu's eyes were slightly cold.
Although Xiaorong was said to be a maid, she was actually like a family member to Yingning and Granny Qin, and she ate at the table with them, so several people sat around the table to a full capacity.
"It's rare in our house to be so lively. Come, eat, eat, you're welcome."
Probably because most of the older people like to be lively, Granny Qin is very happy at the moment, she will let the prince convince you not to be polite, and then she will add a chicken leg to Gu Yunchu.
At this moment, there was a hasty knock on the door outside.Everyone couldn't help turning their heads to look suspiciously.Granny Qin, the host family, was the most puzzled. After all, their family was ghost foxes. Although they lived in the village, they had little contact with people.It's been two days since Gu Yunchu and Wang Zifu are both rare and rare, and there was another knock on the door this morning?Who is this again?
Xiaorong put down the bowl and chopsticks.
"I gonna go see."
Unexpectedly, not long after she went out, everyone heard a scream in front of her.
Grandma Qin was taken aback.
"What happened?"
Gu Yunchu immediately stood up.
"I gonna go see."
Wang Zifu originally wanted to follow, but then he saw Granny Qin about to stand up on crutches, so he hurried over and reached out to support the old man.
Ying Ning on the side froze for a moment.
Because she knew that her adoptive mother was a ghost, neither she nor Xiao Rong paid attention to this point on weekdays. After all, a ghost like Granny Qin would never fall on the ground because of her unsteady legs and feet. Crutches are nothing more than a habit before death.
But Wang Zifu obviously didn't know.While helping Granny Qin to go out, he also made a gentle voice to draw attention to the threshold.He was praised by Granny Qin for a good meal.
Noticing that someone was looking at him, Wang Zifu raised his head, and met Ying Ning's eyes, and saw Ying Ning suddenly smiled at him, and then smiled and moved to Granny Qin's side.
"Mom, I'll help you too! Be careful and pay attention to the threshold."
As if thinking of something funny, she couldn't help laughing again.
Granny Qin knew what Yingning was laughing at.It's just that she thinks it's fun for her to pretend to be an ordinary old woman in front of outsiders.
"You, you, you were too spoiled when you were young, and you grow up to be so cute. What will you do in the future?"
Ying Ning just smiled and didn't speak.
This appearance really made Granny Qin speechless when she wanted to reprimand her, so she could only smile helplessly.
At the same time, Gu Yunchu had already arrived at the entrance of the front yard, and saw Xiao Rong standing at the entrance with a face full of surprise, and there was a person lying on his stomach on the steps of the entrance.
A skinny man with a foul smell, skinny like a beggar, he is really too thin, seeing him, Gu Yunchu really understands what it means to be so thin that he loses his appearance.
He looked almost inhuman, with sunken cheeks, slender limbs, dry like a bundle of dead branches, which made people feel horrible. How could a person be so thin? die?
Obviously, Xiao Rong should have been frightened by this man when he opened the door just now.
Gu Yunchu subconsciously took a step back.
I was afraid that if I took a breath, I would blow the opponent to a bone.
Seeing the man muttering weakly, she turned to look at Xiaorong.
"Does he want to beg for a meal?"
Xiao Rong shook his head.
"No, it seems that he... wants to come for a drink."
Gu Yunchu was taken aback.Carefully walked over to listen carefully, but the person lying on the ground suddenly grabbed Gu Yunchu's ankle.Like a hungry ghost.
"Wine! Give me wine!"
What the hell!
Gu Yunchu was so frightened that he took a step back subconsciously, only to hear a click.After the man screamed, his arm was dislocated.
The beggar turned pale and lay on the ground hugging his arm in panic.
"My arm... I can't feel my arm!"
Ying Ning's brisk voice came from behind?
"Yunchu, did you beat someone up?"
And the mother-in-law Qin and Wang Zifu who came behind looked at Gu Yunchu in confusion, and then at the beggar who was crying in pain on the ground.
The younger sister of the system watching the excitement: [Oh, huh~]
"I'm not, I didn't, I didn't do anything! Yes... He came to grab my feet first, and I just took a step back, and his hand was just like that."

"No...don't want food, I want wine, I want wine! I beg some kind people, please be merciful, give me some wine!"
He knelt on the ground and kowtowed.Because of his weakness, he fell to the ground after knocking twice, and fell back to the ground again.But even so, he still stretched out his thin arms like dead branches.Words of madness and longing.

Granny Qin hurriedly said.
"Hey, this is a very old brew. If you drink so much, you won't be afraid to die of drunkenness!"
What she said wasn't to scare people. It's not uncommon for someone to drink too much and die!
The beggar ignored him and greedily drank all the wine. Gu Yunchu couldn't help but frown a little.After all, most people don't like this kind of alcoholic alcoholic.
But after drinking a jar of wine, the beggar seemed to regain some sanity.He wiped his mouth and smiled wryly at Granny Qin.
"Thank you for the kindness of the old man. Please don't worry. I have never been drunk in all these years. Once I was rewarded by a rich man. I drank eighteen altars of good wine in one hour without getting drunk. .”
Ying Ning suddenly laughed.
"You are so good at bragging. Eighteen altars of good wine are several times as tall as you. You can drink them all in one hour without bursting your belly? Could it be that there is a hole in your stomach? How much do you drink?" How much is missing?!"
The beggar's smile became more and more depressed.
"I'm really not lying. When I was young, I didn't like to drink alcohol. I got drunk when I got drunk. But one day, I suddenly fell in love with this drink. I couldn't bear the hunger and thirst if I didn't drink it for a day. In the end, I became crazy. I used to be a well-to-do family with parents, wife and children, but because of this incident, I gradually lost more than half of my family fortune. I saw that this was not possible, so I left home by myself in order not to burden the old and the young in the family. beggar."
Speaking of this, he smiled wryly again.
"I also thought about just getting drunk to death like this, but I just don't get drunk after a thousand cups."
"This is really weird."
Granny Qin quietly looked at Xiaorong.
"Ordinary people may be able to drink a thousand cups without getting drunk, but drinking eighteen altars of wine without bursting their stomachs is not something ordinary people can have."
Xiao Rong shook his head slightly at Granny Qin.
Gu Yunchu saw all this in his eyes.
Obviously, Granny Qin doubted the identity of this beggar human being. In fact, Gu Yunchu also had some doubts, but judging from Xiaorong's shaking of his head, this person seemed to be the same?
Then why is it that a person can have such a skill, is it a natural talent?
This doesn't seem like a good thing, or is it a strange disease?
Gu Yunchu was puzzled, at this moment, she seemed to have remembered something.Turn to look at that man.
"You said you suddenly became addicted to alcohol one day? Tell me carefully."
The beggar didn't know, so he just thought she was curious. He had encountered this kind of situation before, so he talked about his tragic experience.
After listening to it, Gu Yunchu said thoughtfully.
"I seem to have heard of your strange problem."
When the beggar heard this, he raised his head suddenly.
"Really?"
The rest of the people also looked over curiously.
Gu Yunchu nodded. "I once heard that someone is fond of wine, drinks every day, and also never gets drunk. The reason why this person is so is because there is a wine worm in his stomach."
Ying Ning looked over curiously.
"Wine worm? What is that?"
Gu Yunchu recalled the story of "Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio" that he had read.
"The wine worm is the essence of wine. It likes to get into people's bodies and control people to drink continuously. In fact, the wine will be drunk by the wine worm. That's why people who drink will never get drunk."
People parasitized by alcohol worms: drink, but not completely.
The beggar said quickly.
"Then... does that girl know how to deal with this wine worm?"
Gu Yunchu looked at the slight light in his eyes.After thinking about it.
"There is a method, although I'm not sure if you are a wine bug, but you can try it."
Then everyone moved to the front yard, and Gu Yunchu asked someone to find hemp rope and a jar of good wine.
The younger sister of the system asked: [Is this a story in "Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio"? 】
Gu Yunchu: [Well, this story is the most impressive to me. 】
As she said that, she directly recited the full text of Jiu Chong to the system sister, it was still in the classical Chinese version.In order to show off their cultural heritage.
She, Gu Yunchu, Wenhua Yiner!
The system sister was suspicious.
There are so many stories in Liaozhai, some of which Gu Yunchu had forgotten long ago, such as the one who made animals. She didn't remember that she had seen such a passage until the matter was over.
Then how could this wine worm impress her so deeply, even far surpassing painted skins and painted walls?
Gu Yunchu, who was tying up the beggar with hemp rope, paused slightly when he heard this question, and his face flashed with embarrassment.
[I am ashamed to say that when I was just in the first grade of primary school, I was young and ignorant. After reading this story, I always thought that there was such a wine worm in the belly of those beer belly uncles who like to drink.However, my deskmate's father is this uncle with a beer belly who is addicted to alcohol. How can that uncle treat his son and wife well, but as he gets older, he likes to drink more and more. For this reason, he and My wife always quarreled, and even rushed to talk a few times, and seemed to be on the point of divorce. Because of this, my deskmate also hated his father's drinking.So, I told him about the wine worm in his father's stomach. 】
System sister: [So your tablemate told his father this story? 】
【……No. 】
Gu Yunchu was silent for a moment, then said.
【Hearing this, he hated the wine worm in his father's stomach to death, so after another quarrel between his parents, he waited for his father to fall asleep, and resolutely picked up the insecticide at home... 】
After all, children don't want to get so much. If they want to kill insects, they will naturally use insecticides.
So imagine that when the father fell asleep in the middle of the night, he heard a strange sound, and there was a strange smell in his mouth. When he opened his eyes, he saw his son standing at the head of his bed in the pitch black. Gougou looked at himself.
This scene was scary enough, and when he turned on the light, he found a bottle of insecticide spray in his hand, and he had a strange smell in his mouth.And the son really said in a day or two: "Dad, there is a bug in your stomach that likes to drink, I will kill it for you!"
The younger sister of the system was also silent: [... Is your deskmate still alive? 】
After all, that old father was almost killed by his own son.
[I probably didn’t spray a few times at that time, but that uncle still went to the hospital overnight for gastric lavage, and my deskmate took two days off before going back to school because of a swollen buttock.By the way, because this guy confessed to me, I was fined several days of sanitation duty. 】
Thinking of the situation at that time, Gu Yunchu still felt aggrieved. After all, she really just shared a new story with her friends. Who knew that little fool had such strong hands-on skills!
Gu Yunchu, who had tied up the beggar, slapped the mud off the wine jar.Smelling the mellow aroma of wine, he said lightly.
[However, the uncle seemed to realize the psychological harm to his son from his constant drinking and quarreling with his wife, so he quit drinking. 】
Of course, it may also be that he was frightened by his son's "insect killing" in the middle of the night.
I'm afraid that I won't kill the 'wine worm' in my stomach again.Maybe one day the son will directly stab him quietly.
On the other side, the eyes of the beggar who was tied to the pillar became straight when he smelled the aroma of the wine, and he stretched his head towards the wine jar.
The wine jar was not far from his feet, and he could see the liquid from the mouth of the jar when he lowered his head, but his hands and feet were tied tightly, and he couldn't move at all. I remember he struggled desperately, kept shaking his head, and kept screaming Asking for wine, he doesn't look like a living person, but like a wild beast.The rough hemp rope has worn the skin of the hands and feet, and it seems that there is no pain.
Seeing the hemp rope stained red with blood, Ying Ning and the others couldn't bear it and didn't dare to look more.
At this moment, Xiao Rong said in surprise.
"Look!"
Everyone looked and saw that the beggar opened his mouth, and a strange thing exposed his head, and then the beggar spat out the thing in his mouth, and the thing fell straight into the wine jar.
Everyone looked down and found a blood-red chubby bug swimming around in the wine.Obviously this is the wine bug!
Xiao Rong looked at the bug in the wine jar, and then at Gu Yunchu.
"Miss Gu is really well-informed. I never imagined that there is such a thing as a wine worm in this world."
She, a fox demon, doesn't know about this kind of bug.
Gu Yunchu smiled.
"I also found out by chance."
And the beggar spat out the worm, he felt indescribably light all over his body, smelling the aroma of the wine, he didn't feel like drinking at all.He didn't care that he was still tied to the pillar, and when he was sure he was well, tears welled up in his eyes for a moment, and he thanked Gu Yunchu with sobs. The tears kept sliding down the sunken cheeks and dripped down into the wine jar below.It was as if he wanted to cry out all the grievances and despair he had suffered all these years.
Seeing that he was a big man crying and hiccupping, Granny Qin hurriedly asked someone to put him down.
"Stop crying, you're hungry, we'll get you something to eat. Since you said that your home is not far from here, then I'll ask someone to take you back. After you go home, live a good life with your family. "
The beggar choked up again and quickly said thank you.
Go home... After wandering for so many years, he can finally go home!
It seemed that Ying Ning's house was destined to be extraordinarily lively today. After entertaining the beggar, the people hadn't sent him away yet, but in the afternoon, people came to the door again.
"A fox ran into the house to make trouble?!"
The prince was taken aback and looked at the old servant at home.
The old servant nodded quickly.
"Yes, young master, the old lady was frightened, and she is still lying on the bed. The young lady is so frightened that she is paralyzed. You can go back with me and have a look."
When Wang Zifu heard this, he subconsciously looked at Gu Yunchu. After all, in his heart, Gu Yunchu was an expert.
"Miss Gu, do you know that the fox is causing trouble in this family, how can I solve it?"
How did Gu Yunchu know that she could remember Jiu Chong's solution mainly because of his tablemate back then, "filial piety touches the sky", as for the fox making trouble...
"I'll go over with you to have a look."
Grandma Qin was taken aback when she heard about the fox's mischief, and then hesitated for a moment.
"Since that's the case, why don't you bring Ying Ning and Xiao Rong with you? I've wanted Ying Ning to meet her aunt a long time ago, but I didn't have the chance for a while, so I'm going with her now, and I can take care of her in front of the bed."
Of course, making Yingning recognize her aunt's family is one of the reasons, and because Xiaorong is a fox demon, since there are foxes in Wang Zifu's house, Granny Qin kindly wants Xiaorong to help out.
In this way, the previous beggar was not good enough to stay here. After all, a stranger who met by chance, no one would trust him to live with Granny Qin.
So Wang Zifu waved his hand, thinking to take everyone away.When he arrived in his village, he happened to know that someone often went to the beggar's house to buy and sell goods, and he happened to ask that person to take the beggar back.
However, Granny Qin probably feared that she was a ghost and would not be able to walk in the sun without a shadow, and she didn't want to go out to scare people, so she reasoned that she was old and frail and could not walk far.
When they arrived at the place, Gu Yunchu found that Wang Zifu's house was quite big.Not to mention pavilions, towers, pavilions, carved beams and painted buildings, but in this village, he should be considered a wealthy household.
Wang Zifu told the old servant and asked him to help take the beggar to resettlement first.Then he took Gu Yunchu and others into the inner courtyard and went straight to his mother's bedroom.
The doors and windows inside were closed, he knocked on the door, and a maid came to open the door.
After entering, bypassing the screen, I saw a middle-aged woman lying on the bed, with a pale face and closed eyes.
And a teenage girl was sitting by the bed crying.Seeing someone coming, she looked up, and suddenly she was pleasantly surprised.
"elder brother."
Then wept again.
"Why did you come back, mother... Mother has been in a coma for a long time!"
When Wang Zifu saw his mother like this, his heart tightened.
"Have you invited the doctor?"
Wang Zifu's younger sister, Wang Ziyue sobbed.
"I've already been invited. The doctor said that my mother was frightened. He gave her an injection and said that she would wake up in half an hour. After waking up, drink more soothing soup. It's just..."
She twisted her veil and looked around the corners with some fear, as if an evil spirit would come out of the darkness at any time to eat her.
"It's just that the fox said that he will come again, brother, what should we do?"
Prince Fu frowned.
"Tell me in detail, what's going on?"
Wang Ziyue wiped away tears and spoke slowly.
Only then did everyone know what was going on. It turned out that Wang Ziyue had a strange dream last night.She dreamed of a man with a tail dragging behind his ass, who said he wanted to have sex with her.
Wang Ziyue was naturally unwilling and woke up while struggling.Find yourself dreaming.
This kind of strange dream is really scary. After she woke up last night, she didn't dare to sleep anymore. As a result, she was too sleepy when she was in the house at noon. She cried out in her dream, Mrs. Wang and the servant girl rushed after hearing the sound, and saw that she had taken off her coat, and a fox sprang out of the room. Because Mrs. Wang blocked the way, the fox opened its mouth and scolded and got away.Still jumping up, the fangs and sharp claws were about to attack Mrs. Wang. Mrs. Wang backed away in fright, fell to the ground and fainted from fright.
Wang Ziyue woke up when she heard her mother's scream, but the fox had already disappeared, and she only saw her mother fainted on the ground.The servant girl also turned pale with fright.
Not only did Wang Zifu get angry when he heard these words, but Gu Yunchu's eyes were slightly cold.
