stove king not working

About 10 minutes later, the sound of keys turning came from outside the door again.Feng Suisui couldn't wait to run over to open the door, only to see Si Buhui standing at the door carrying a person and a large bag of Chinese herbal medicines.

"Brother Bugui" Feng Suisui was taken aback, "Who happened again?"

Si Buhui walked in, gently helped the person on his back to a chair and sat down.The man raised his head passively, only then did Feng Suisui realize that it was Dr. Guo who lived in the Chinese Medicine Center.

"Sha Yi also attacked the Chinese Medicine Center." Si Buhui briefly explained the situation, "I smelled a strong evil spirit at the door, and when I climbed over the wall and entered, I saw that Uncle Guo had passed out on the ground."

Fortunately, Si Buhui had practiced Chinese medicine while studying, so he easily found the ginseng, put the money in the counter, and walked out of the traditional Chinese medicine hall with the ginseng and the unconscious Uncle Guo on his shoulders.

The Chinese medicine hall is remote, but even such a remote Chinese medicine hall could not escape the attack of Shayi.

He Chen sighed, simply packed up the ginseng and returned to the back kitchen.The old duck had already been soaked in clear water and boiled over high heat. He Chen turned off the heat and poured out the boiling water, then stuffed the old duck into cold water to wash it clean, put the old duck back into the pot again, added sand ginseng and Ophiopogon japonicus, again Turn on the fire and cook until the water boils, cover the pot and let it simmer for five or six minutes, then pour all the ingredients in the pot into the ancestral cauldron of Si Buhui's family.

As the water vapor rises, the fragrance in the pot also begins to evaporate. The sweet fragrance of sand ginseng and the fragrance of Ophiopogon japonicus are accompanied by the mellow fragrance of old duck, lingering together, giving people endless enjoyment in the sense of smell.Feng Suisui took a deep breath, and said intoxicatedly, "It smells so good, Brother Chen, when can I drink this soup?"

"You're fine, what soup do you want?" He Chen looked at Feng Suisui with neither a smile nor a smile.

"But I was also attacked by Shayi," Feng Suisui plausibly said, "I need some soup to calm my shock."

"Okay." He Chen reached out and pinched Feng Suisui's face, "Then you can have a bowl of soup when it's ready."

The soup was still simmering, but the braided buns were edible. He Chen brought the braided buns to the front hall and called everyone to eat.Si Buhui and Feng Suisui immediately picked the two biggest ones and held them in their hands, while the gangsters secretly looked at each other, and no one dared to come up to eat.

"Don't you guys have breakfast?" He Chen also took one in his hand, and asked those punks strangely.

Looking at Si Buhui's expression tremblingly, he realized that the old man was gnawing on the bread in his hand intently, and didn't intend to trouble himself, so the gangsters felt relieved and walked to the table with a sigh of relief.

Xiang Dongzi just picked up a piece of bread, and immediately felt two cold eyes shooting at him from behind, which immediately made his hair stand on end, but when he turned his head away, he could only see the bread with his head down. Si Buhui, who made bread, and Feng Suisui, who was fighting over pine nuts with Corgi.He tentatively reached out to grab the piece of bread again, but felt that cold gaze coming again.

After testing it back and forth several times, Xiang Dongzi didn't dare to pick that one again, and only picked the smallest one and held it in his hand. The two eyes finally stopped chasing him.Seeing this, several other gangsters followed Xiang Dongzi's example and grabbed a few small pieces.

Seeing this, He Chen asked strangely, "Why do you all have enough to eat?"

They didn't dare to take any more, they nodded violently when they heard He Chen's question, "Enough is enough, we have small stomachs."

Perhaps the aroma of the bread awakened Uncle Guo, and the old Chinese doctor, who had been in a coma for a long time, coughed a few times and woke up slowly.He wasn't surprised to find that he wasn't in the Chinese medicine clinic, he looked at the crowd eating bread and asked, "Is there any more?"

"Yes, yes." He Chen came back to his senses, and handed the entire plate to Uncle Guo respectfully, "Uncle Guo, you can eat as much as you want, and if it's not enough, I'll make you a bowl of wontons."

Uncle Guo picked a big piece and took a bite, sighing, "It's been a long time since I ate the bread you made, Chenzi."

"You can come here often in the future, and I'll make it for you." He Chen said with a smile.

Uncle Guo took another bite, his expression lost, "Unfortunately, I don't know if there will be a future."

He Chen's heart skipped a beat, did Uncle Guo know? He pretended not to know, and put on a shocked expression, "Uncle Guo, what are you talking about? My restaurant is always open, and you can come to eat whenever you want .”

"Chenzi, don't hide it from uncle. Uncle is over fifty years old anyway. I have no secrets about this city of Huai." Uncle Guo sighed and put down the half-bitten bread. "That woman, I am young. I saw it once."

Uncle Guo took a sip of tea and recalled the past more than 30 years ago.

More than 30 years ago, Uncle Guo was not an uncle, but a young apprentice in a Chinese medicine center, following his master to learn how to detect the pulse and grasp the medicinal materials.His parents sent Xiao Guo to the Traditional Chinese Medicine Museum, but Xiao Guo wanted to be the owner of a tailor shop, so he wanted to go out with all his heart, and he was always half-hearted when studying pharmacology, and he didn't make much progress in two or three years.

On this day, Xiao Guo sneaked out of the Chinese medicine hall as usual, wandering in the street, and suddenly saw a lunatic running around a pillar laughing, spitting sand out of his mouth from time to time.

A lunatic is a lunatic who wandered to Huai City a long time ago. He was crazy when he came, and no matter how strange he did, it would not attract people's attention.On that day, Xiao Guo ran to him on a whim, wanting to see what the madman was doing.

The lunatic ran around the pillar for more than ten minutes, and finally stopped out of breath.Panting heavily, he pointed at the pillar and said, "If you cry again, I won't be able to hear you anymore hahahaha." After laughing for a while, he began to cry again, "But if I cry again, you won't hear me anymore." not coming"

Xiao Guo heard it strangely, and couldn't help getting closer.Hearing the sound of approaching footsteps, the lunatic turned his head to see Xiao Guo, was stunned for a while, and immediately laughed strangely, "Are you sent by her? Are you also here to listen to the sound? But I can't hear it hahaha" said, he turned towards I spit on the ground, but I can't spit out the saliva, but I spit out a lot of sand.

"I didn't catch her, but it was her own fault." The lunatic whimpered, but there were no tears in his eyes.

Xiao Guo was confused by the random language, but he didn't know where his patience came from. He actually sat on the side of the road with the lunatic and listened to him telling his own story incoherently. .

It took Xiao Guo an afternoon to finally understand the ins and outs of the story.

In the description of the lunatic, he was originally a cement worker in a nearby town and married a beautiful wife.After he got married, he just caught up with the period of major construction in the city, and all the thatched and stone houses had to be transformed into bungalows or low buildings with cement walls, so cement craftsman became the hottest job in the whole city, and he also made a fortune from it. a fortune.

However, the price of getting rich is that his rest time has become less and less. Often, not long after a job is over, the next family will drag him to build walls and bricks.Cement workers are in a busy state all day long, and it is becoming more and more difficult to take care of their families.

The wife often prepares a large table of dishes and waits for her husband to come home, but what she waits for is the news that the husband has left a meal at the employer's house.So the wife began to become depressed and lose weight day by day.

Seeing this, the cement builder felt a little anxious, determined to stop after completing the order in hand, and spend time with his wife.After finishing the order with great difficulty, when he returned home, he found that his wife's spirit had inexplicably improved again, and her face was even more rosy than before, looking healthy and full of vitality.

The cement worker who originally wanted to stay at home for a few more days was instead persuaded by his wife to go out and go to work this time.Thinking of giving his wife a better life, the cement worker went to work with full motivation.

However, as time went by, the cementer gradually noticed something was wrong. His wife's face turned from pale to black, and the whole person showed a deadly indifference and alienation. Once the cementer woke up in the middle of the night and subconsciously stretched out his hand. Going to hug the person next to the pillow, only to find that I was in vain.He thought it was his wife who went to the bathroom at night, but when he got up, he found his wife sitting quietly in front of the vanity mirror, combing her hair expressionlessly.

Such a situation scared him into a cold sweat, but when he woke up the next day, his wife refused to admit that she had combed her hair in front of the vanity mirror last night.The cement worker thought that he had read it wrong, and left home with some doubts to continue working.

The accident happened some afternoon in the second month.As usual, the cement worker finished his work and returned home. The stove in the kitchen was deserted, and his wife did not cook.He searched around but found no one, but found that the door of the bedroom was ajar, and there was a creaking and harsh sound from inside.

The cementer followed the sound to the bedroom door and looked in through the crack of the door.Inside the half-hidden door, his beautiful wife actually took off her head, and a pile of yellow sand rolled down to the ground.

Xiao Guo was sweating coldly, but saw the lunatic crying and laughing for a while, as if he had lost the ability to be afraid.

"What's next?" Xiao Guo asked tremblingly.

The lunatic narrowed his eyes and looked up at the sky, as if he saw something interesting, and laughed again, "Later, she saw me hiding outside the door, and told me with tears that she had no choice but to beg me Save her."

"I escaped and I came here."

The lunatic lowered his head and stretched out his hand to flatten the sand on the ground, "But I found that no matter where I go, I can see her, how can she let me go?"

The wind blew from behind, and the flattened yellow sand was blown all over the ground, gradually gathering into a pattern.

From Xiao Guo's perspective, it was the profile of a woman.
