C234 Warehouse

When I heard my boss's words, I couldn't help but shudder. The old farmer from before was really something. He was really smart and had even calculated what the boss wanted to say.

But when I thought about it, I felt that maybe the boss had used this trick so many times that the old farmer could memorize the words.

Now, I'm sure the boss has a problem. Logically speaking, I should leave immediately, leave this land of conflict, but I cannot, because there is something wrong with him, I have to stay here, because I can only find the Little Tang Wei if I stay.

When the boss saw me standing on the street in a daze, he thought that I didn't want to waste my time in the store. He walked over and affectionately patted me on the shoulder. I know you are in a hurry to find someone, but sometimes, being in a hurry is useless. Do you know that sharpening the blade does not delay the chopping of wood? "

I gave a hollow laugh and tried to think of an excuse to stay.

While I was at a loss, I did not expect the boss to help me find an excuse, he said to me: "This place can only come out at night, not during the day. It's dangerous to come out during the day. "

I looked at the boss in bewilderment. "This place still has daytime?"

The boss stared at him and said, "Of course there is. "Little brother, this place is really strange, there are some things in the human world, everything here."

I nodded my head doubtfully. The boss said, "Aren't you afraid of missing time? You don't have to worry at all. One day here is only a few hours, one night here is also very short. You can go in and sleep for a bit. When you wake up, you can come out. "

I felt that it was about time, so I pretended to be helpless and agreed to the boss's request.

When the boss saw that I had agreed, he seemed to be in high spirits and said that he would treat me to a meal again.

I said to him, "The cook has gone to bed, so there's no need to bother."

The boss had started to scold Xiao Miao nonchalantly, saying that she was always lazy when he wasn't around.

I saw that although the boss scolded Xiao Miao harshly, he did not plan on doing anything to him, and even tacitly agreed to let him sleep.

I feel that Xiao Miao is right, this boss' style is just like that, as long as he does not steal food, the rest can be discussed.

After a while, the owner turned around and closed the door. He then used a wooden stick to carefully close the door. He smiled at me. "It's closed, but it'll open again in a few hours."

Then he led me into the back kitchen, and when he saw the meat on the chopping board, he clicked his tongue and complimented me on my knife skills.

I smiled awkwardly but didn't say anything.

When we went upstairs, I whispered to my boss, "What's the day like here?" What would happen if you went out during the day? Is it as if I was being roasted alive by yang energy, causing my soul to scatter? "

The boss was silent for a while before suddenly stopping. He turned around and mysteriously said to me, "No one knows because no one has seen daylight before."

I chuckled dryly. "Since no one has seen the daytime, how do you know it's dangerous?"

The boss said, "I didn't say it clearly. What I want to say is that no one who is alive has ever seen daylight. "

I shivered. "Meaning that everyone who saw the day was dead?"

The owner nodded slowly. Then he quickly made his way to the second floor.

There wasn't much room on the second floor. I counted four rooms in total. Two of them were warehouses with food ingredients. In the other room. One was the boss's bedroom, while the other was the employees' dormitory.

The owner smiled at me and said, "You and Xiao Miao can squeeze together for a bit. That child has some problems, don't mind him."

Then he closed the door.

I stood in the corridor and looked at the staff dormitory with disdain. I felt goosebumps all over my body again. I know what the boss means by a minor ailment. This Xiao Miao guy, she's so angry, yet he slept in the same bed as me.

I hesitated for a while, but still couldn't go to Xiao Miao's room. Right now, everyone is asleep, so this is a good opportunity for me to make a move. I should take advantage of this opportunity and flip this store upside down to see if Little Tang Wei is here.

I set my sights on the warehouse.

I carefully walked to the entrance of the warehouse and listened carefully. It was quiet inside, as if no one was hiding inside.

I gave it a little push, and the doors squeaked open.

I didn't go in right away, but stood in the doorway, listening for sounds in the other two rooms. The owner was normal, so Xiao Miao did not open the door, thus I entered in a flash and gently closed the warehouse door.

There was nothing else in the warehouse but meat. I see a lot of dead sheep hanging here. The sheep were skinned and mangled.

I looked around and saw nothing but mutton. The Little Tang Wei did not seem to be here.

I shook my head, intending to leave the warehouse. But by the time I reached the door, my heart was pounding. Something called me.

I was a little flustered, so I turned around. Then I saw a sheep staring at me.

The sheep, long dead, hung upside down from the beam of the house, strung on an iron hook.

The skin of the goat's head was gone. In the midst of a bloody mess, there was a pair of eyes looking at me. I seem to see a plea from inside.

I shook my head vigorously and said to the Sheephead, "I can't help myself anymore. I can't help you. Besides, you've been skinned. How else can I help? I can only hope that you will be reborn as a human in your next life and not be a sheep. "

The Sheep's Head seemed to have heard my words. Its eyes quickly dimmed, and I felt that it no longer looked at me.

It gave up hope, but my heart was a little unwilling. I sighed and walked up to the Sheep's Head. I gently patted it and said, "Since I've gained some benefits, my resentment will be of no use. I might as well do good deeds with virtue."

These words sounded like they came from an old monk. But at such times, what else could I do other than play the part of an old monk? I don't know where Little Tang Wei went, but I can't possibly run around with a sheep in my arms, right?

But as I patted the sheep's head, I realized something was wrong. There were stitches on the head of the sheep.

I looked closely and saw that the sheep was strange. His body, including his head, had been dismembered and then sewn together with thick stitches.

I looked at the other sheep. They were all the same.

I wondered: what was going on? Could it be that the boss regretted cutting up the sheep, so he sewed them up and left them with a complete corpse?

I stood in front of the Inside the house and couldn't come to a conclusion no matter how much I thought about it. And the sheep obviously couldn't answer my question. Other than the sadness in their eyes, they had no other characteristics of living beings.

I shook my head and sighed. "If I had the energy, I would come to save you."

These words were actually a bunch of nonsense. How could he be considered to have the strength to back it up? But all the sheep believed me, and I felt the anticipation in their eyes, the gratitude, the gratitude.

I felt a little guilty after writing the blank check, so I hurried out of the warehouse and closed the door behind me.

Not in this warehouse, but it doesn't matter. I'll look in the other room.

I opened the door to another warehouse and was immediately stunned. I feel that this place is not like a warehouse, to be more accurate, it is more suitable to be called the buddhist hall.

There was no mutton in the Inside the house, only a Buddha statue and a altar.

This Buddha statue was actually not that big, but its head was almost touching the ceiling. I took a closer look and saw that this Buddha statue was carved according to Shakyamuni's appearance. The stone statue was covered with gold foil and looked very similar to the Golden Man outside.

As for the altar.

I frowned. The altar seemed too small. It was only the size of a bench, and the cup and plate on it were equally small.

I looked at the miniature offerings on the plate and wanted to laugh. This fellow wanted to offer Buddha services but was unwilling to spend money, so he simply made a mini altar table?

Although I said this to myself, I knew that it wasn't the truth. No matter how lonely the owner's mutton restaurant was, he wouldn't lack a few offerings.

So the meaning of what he did... As I squatted down at the altar, a thought struck me: I see.

This altar was actually a reference. What the boss really wanted to express was that the Buddha statue was very big.

I squatted on the ground and looked up at the Buddha statue. The more I looked at it, the more I felt like it was the giant Golden Man outside.

Although his face was that of Shakyamuni, it was only when I looked closely that I realized he was not looking kindly at all the living beings. Instead, he had a drunken look on his face, as if he was in a deep slumber.

I stood up and walked around the buddhist hall twice as I muttered to myself, "Is the boss worshipping the Golden Man?" What did he worship the Golden Man for?

I thought about it for a while, but I couldn't come up with a clue. These villagers are the same as me, because they were lost and came here, they should have seen the Golden Man before.

There was only the kitchen and the counter downstairs, and when I glanced around, there was no one there at all.

Now, there were only two places left unchecked. One was Xiao Miao's dorm room, the other was the boss's bedroom. If Little Tang Wei was really hiding here, she should be in one of these two rooms.

Logically speaking, if she was imprisoned, it would be more likely that she would be in her boss's bedroom, because that way the boss would be able to keep an eye on her.

But I don't have the guts to open that door right now. I decided to change the topic and search through Xiao Miao's dorm first.

So I pushed open the door and went in, and who knew that I would be startled just as I entered. Because Xiao Miao was standing behind the door, staring straight at me.

My heart was pounding, and I complained, "What are you doing? "I was almost scared to death."

Who would have thought that Xiao Miao would reply faintly, "You've finally come in."
