Seeing these eyes, Lu Qingjiu's breath was suffocated, and he even thought he was hallucinating. Those eyes seemed to see Lu Qingjiu in the room through the gap, and there was a strong look of greed in them.

Lu Qingjiu said in shock: "Am I having a nightmare..."

Before his question was answered, the terrifying eyes on his head disappeared. However, before Lu Qingjiu could recover, he saw a slender pink tongue entering through the small hole.

The tongue was extremely long, with transparent mucus attached to it, and it bounced towards where Lu Qingjiu was. Fortunately, Lu Qingjiu reacted quickly and jumped under the bed, avoiding the attack of the tongue. He staggered and pushed open the door.

After running outside the house, he saw clearly what was on his roof, and his whole body froze in place.

I saw a huge reptile attached to the roof of the old house. The animal's skin was gray-black, its eyes were protruding, and its limbs were easily fixed on the slippery bricks - it was clearly a huge gecko!

The gecko also noticed Lu Qingjiu's movements, and slowly turned its head and looked towards Lu Qingjiu. Lu Qingjiu saw that the situation was not good, and turned around to run away, but the next moment he heard the sound of a piercing sound coming from behind him.

There was a sound, as if something was stabbing towards him!

Before Lu Qingjiu could react, he felt a tightening on his waist, and his whole vision turned upside down. He let out a groan, and was rolled up by the giant gecko's tongue.

Geckos have always eaten like this. As long as they wrap their tongue around a living thing, they will eat it into their mouth. Lu Qingjiu watched helplessly as he got closer and closer to the huge gecko. Just when he was about to be

The moment the thing was taken into its mouth, the gecko suddenly froze, and its huge eyes showed horrifying fear.

Lu Qingjiu also stayed in mid-air. He couldn't fully digest all the weird things for a while, but his survival instinct still made him make the right decision. Taking advantage of the gecko's dazed moment, he took out the knife and put it on his

The key chain in his pants pocket was scratched hard against the tongue that was entangled with him.

I don't know whether it was because of pain or other reasons, but the gecko actually let go of Lu Qingjiu. Lu Qingjiu fell to the ground from mid-air, and saw a dense darkness floating above his head.

There seemed to be something hidden in the darkness, but Lu Qingjiu couldn't see clearly.

The gecko seemed to be extremely afraid of the darkness. It turned around and jumped off the roof to escape, but the darkness quickly spread and enveloped the gecko.

Then, Lu Qingjiu heard a sound like chewing meat. Covered by the darkness, only a small part of the gecko's tail was exposed. Lu Qingjiu watched helplessly as the tail kept twisting and struggling, and then the movements became smaller and smaller.

, and finally there was no movement.

The sound of chewing meat gradually became quieter, replaced by the crunching sound of crushing bones. Lu Qingjiu slowly got up from the ground, intending to use this time to leave here, but as soon as he took two steps forward, he felt dizzy.

, the whole person fell to the ground. Just before he fainted completely, he seemed to vaguely see a big orange eye...

The next day, Lu Qingjiu was woken up by a knock on the door. He got up from the bed and stayed for a while before staggering to open the door.

"What's the matter, Qingjiu? You look so ugly!" Yin Xun saw Lu Qingjiu opening the door and was shocked by his expression, "Did you catch ghosts in the middle of the night last night?!"

When the word "ghost" was mentioned, Lu Qingjiu's face turned even darker. He said, "I seemed to have had a very scary dream last night." As he spoke, he looked up at the roof, but he didn't see any ghosts on it.

Traces of damage.

"A scary dream?" Yin Xundao, "Are you too tired..."

Lu Qingjiu looked dazed: "It's... it's possible."

"Are you going to the market in town today?" Yin Xun asked, "How about you rest at home for the day?"

"Go." Lu Qingjiu shook his head to sober up a little, "I also want to buy some daily necessities."

"Okay, let's just go and have breakfast in town." Yin Xun glanced at his watch, "Uncle Chen and his car are going to town."

Shuifu Village is quite far from the town. It takes a whole day to walk and more than two hours to take a car. There are only two small trucks in the village. Usually, if the villagers want to go to the town, they can wait until the owner of the truck purchases the goods.

Just go and pay some money for the fare. The man Yin Xun calls Uncle Chen is one of them. His family has quite a lot of fields. This time he goes to town with the intention of buying some fertilizer.

The two of them walked to the entrance of the village, said hello to Uncle Chen and got into the cab.

After Lu Qingjiu paid the fare, Yin Xun handed over a cigarette with a smile. Uncle Chen took it and lit it, chatting and asking Lu Qingjiu what he wanted to buy.

"I want to raise a piglet." Lu Qingjiu said, "Buy some seeds."

Chen Bodao said: "Okay, there is a piglet seller in the town. I will help you choose them together, so you don't get fooled."

Lu Qingjiu smiled and thanked him.

Then Uncle Chen asked Lu Qingjiu about his current situation. After learning that he planned to stay here for a long time, he told him some things that needed attention. For example, the land must be plowed immediately so that it can be planted, and farming should pay attention to the season.

, wasting time and missing spring, you have to wait until the next quarter.

Lu Qingjiu listened and nodded in agreement from time to time. These distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. Shuifu Village is small to begin with, and everyone can help each other with anything.

The minivan drove through the mountain road and arrived at the market in the town. Different from the silence at night, the town was bustling with activity during the day. There were vendors selling all kinds of gadgets on both sides of the road, including food and useful things.

There are many seeds and livestock.

Uncle Chen said that he had to stock up first, and asked Yin Xun and Lu Qingjiu to buy the things they wanted to buy first, and then the three of them gathered at the place where the piglets were sold.

Lu Qingjiu nodded and entered the market with Yin Xun.

"What do you want to eat?" Yin Xundao said, "That steamed dumpling tastes pretty good."

Lu Qingjiu said: "How about trying it?"

Yin Xundao: "Hey, let's walk."

Lu Qingjiu followed Yin to a small shop next to the market and ordered two steaming baskets of steamed dumplings, two bowls of soy milk and two fried dough sticks.

Lu Qingjiu picked up the steamed buns, bit into half of them and said, "It's delicious." The steamed buns were stuffed with soy sauce and meat. The skin was thin and the fillings were big. When you bit it open, you'd find plenty of meat juice, and there were also chopped minced meat inside.

The diced lotus root dilutes the greasiness of the meat, and the taste is very good.

"It's delicious!" Yin Xundao said, "Every time I come to his house, I eat a few baskets. Would you like to try this dipping sauce?"

After Lu Qingjiu heard this, he dipped the dipping sauce again. The dipping sauce contained spicy pepper, vinegar and chopped green onion. After dipping it, it had a completely different taste. It was spicy, delicious and rich in meat, which made people unable to stop eating.

Lu Qingjiu narrowed his eyes with satisfaction and smiled: "How much can you eat by yourself?"

"Me?" Yin Xundao said, "Three or four cages are fine... I just eat too much and it's not good for lunch."

"Oh." Lu Qingjiu picked up another one and was about to stuff it into his mouth when he felt a gaze on his back. He turned his head in confusion and saw a man in white standing behind him.

She was looking at him with burning eyes.

The man's appearance was very familiar to Lu Qingjiu. It was the man he met on the mountain road while taking a taxi that day.

"Hello... hello." Being stared at by such eyes, Lu Qingjiu silently put down the chopsticks in his hand, "You..." He wanted to say something, but didn't know how to start.

Unexpectedly, just when he hesitated, the man had already walked to his side.

Yin Xun whispered, "Who is this?" This man was handsome, with slightly drooped eyes and a lazy look. His thin lips pursed into an arc. All his attention seemed to be on Lu Qingjiu...

No, it wasn't Lu Qingjiu. After repeated confirmations, Yin Xun realized that the man seemed to be staring at the xiaolongbao in front of Lu Qingjiu.

Lu Qingjiu: "..." He also discovered the man's goal, so after hesitating for a moment, he asked politely, "Would you like to eat?"

The man glanced at Lu Qingjiu and nodded decisively.

Lu Qingjiu quickly ordered two more steamed buns. The man didn’t use chopsticks. He reached out and picked up one and put it in his mouth. Lu Qingjiu originally wanted to remind him that the steamed buns were a bit hot, but looking at him, it seemed that he was completely

Not affected, one move after another, without stopping for a moment.

Lu Qingjiu asked quietly from the side: "Is it delicious?"

The man moved for a moment and nodded.

Lu Qingjiu: "Do you want more?"

The man nodded again.

Lu Qingjiu called for two more cages. Although he didn't know who the man was, he had a vague feeling that the man in front of him saved his life that night.

One steamer, two steamers, three steamers... The stacks of steamers in front of him got higher and higher, and Yin Xun's eyes grew wider and wider.

"Damn it, he's already eaten twenty cages." Yin Xun said with horror.

Lu Qingjiu forced himself to calm down: "It's okay, he shouldn't be broken."

Yin Xun: "Is this a problem of broken support..."

Lu Qingjiu: "What's the problem?"

Yin Xun: "Have you brought enough money with you?"

Lu Qingjiu: "Have you brought enough...?"

The xiaolongbao here costs twelve yuan for eight, and the man in white has eaten almost twenty. Lu Qingjiu doubted that it would be okay for him to order twenty more, so he could only touch his wallet to reassure himself that it was more than four hundred yuan.

It's still worth buying a life.

The man ate too much, and even the people around him looked at him in surprise. Lu Qingjiu and Yin Xun were already speechless looking at the tall steamer in front of them. Finally, Lu Qingjiu asked the boss to put up five more steamers.

When he did, the man waved his hand to indicate that he didn’t want to do it anymore.

"Are you full?" Lu Qingjiu said, "Don't worry, I can still afford this meal. I'll leave when I'm full."

"Have you eaten enough?" Upon hearing this, the man suddenly turned his head and stared at Lu Qingjiu seriously, "I haven't eaten enough for a long time."

Lu Qingjiu: "..."

The man said: "Can you make me full?"

"Haha, let me try harder?" For some reason, being stared at by the man's black eyes, a layer of white sweat appeared on Lu Qingjiu's back. He didn't dare to shirk it directly, so he could only express it more tactfully.

Come up with your own thoughts.

"Oh." The man said, "That's good."

Lu Qingjiu breathed a sigh of relief, but before he could completely relax, the man said: "My name is Bai Yuehu, and I will come to you." He stretched out his hand and threw a small cloth bag on the table.
