Strange World Survival Manual

Chapter 253 The abnormal little old man

Walking in the city of Jingning County, Li Si found that the faces of the people here were filled with happy smiles, which was very different from the skinny appearance he saw when he came to Jingning County before.

Seeing this scene, Li Si felt an unknown feeling in his heart for some reason. The last time he left was only two or three months ago, but now Jingning County has undergone earth-shaking changes. This is obviously not right. normal.

And just when he was walking in the city, a sudden burst of meat smell came, which made Li Si feel his appetite whetted, as if someone was cooking a delicacy.

Then something moved in his heart, and he led the bay-red horse to find where the smell of meat came from. After walking for a while, he arrived at a remote corner.

He discovered that the smell of meat was coming from a dilapidated house.

The house in front of him didn't even have a door, and everything inside could be seen at a glance. It had obviously been abandoned for a while.

Li Si led the bay-red horse and looked inside, and found that there were several ragged beggars surrounding a rotten pot. There were large pieces of meat tumbling in the pot, and the meaty aroma was emanating from it.

Seeing this scene, he had some doubts that there was something wrong with his nose. How could the fragrant meat aroma be produced by that simple iron pot?

And how could it be made by these beggars?

At this time, the beggar inside also saw him. Immediately, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old beggar got up and walked over. He looked at Li Si with a fierce look on his face and said, "Go away, stop looking at me like this." , look at me again and I’ll beat you to death!”

He looked like a hungry wolf guarding his food, as if Li Si just refused to leave, he would pounce on him and bite a piece of meat on Li Si's body.

"What kind of meat are you eating?" Li Si didn't pay attention to his words, but frowned and asked.

After hearing his words, the faces of the people inside immediately changed, with ferocious looks in their eyes, and they picked up sticks and gathered around.

Seeing these people coming around, Li Si frowned even more tightly. Even if he was a beggar protecting his food, he would not do this.

"Young man, it's better not to know things you shouldn't know." A sloppy old man knocked the bamboo stick in his hand on the ground and said coldly.

Li Si frowned even more when he heard this. He was sure that the unknown feeling he felt in Jingning County probably came from this meat. This may also be the source of such a big change in Jingning County.

Thinking of this, he was ready to restrain these people and interrogate them about the source of the meat.

However, at this time, he saw a cyan figure walking through the street in front of him out of the corner of his eye.

Seeing the cyan figure, Li Si decided to put the meaty matter aside and chase the cyan figure first.

Because of the cyan figure that suddenly flashed by just now, he happened to know that it was the maid who had been following Long Jun.

Now you can ask about meat at any time, but Long Jun is not so easy to find.

Now that we have seen this girl in green, it means that Mr. Long is also nearby, so the most important thing is to find Mr. Long first.

Immediately, Li Si mounted the maroon horse and chased the cyan figure.

As soon as he chased after him, the cyan figure started running.

The more he chased, the faster the cyan figure ran, as if there was a wild beast behind him.

And when running, the cyan figure ran like an ordinary person, showing no signs of being strange at all.

Li Si even had some doubts as to whether he was chasing the wrong person. This person was not the maid beside Long Jun at all. Because Long Jun's maid cannot be an ordinary person.

It's just that he just saw the appearance of this woman in green, and she was clearly the maid of Lord Long.

Thinking of this, he continued to chase, just because this was an urban area, and Li Si couldn't let the maroon horse loose its speed, so it didn't take long for the woman in green to disappear around a street corner.

Li Si was slightly distracted when he saw the place where the woman in green clothes disappeared. He found that it was a coincidence that this place turned out to be where the little old man lived.

Then, he got off the horse and led the bay-red horse into the alley.

After entering the alley, Li Si found that the alley was almost unchanged from when he left it, and even looked older, which was incompatible with the prosperous streets outside.

Then, he walked to the door of the house and knocked on the door.

"Doctor Miao, are you there?" Li Si knocked on the door and shouted inside.

However, no matter how hard he knocked, there was no movement inside.

Seeing this, Li Si had a bad feeling and stretched out his hand to slam on the door.

With a "bang" sound, the door fell down.

After the door fell down, Li Si looked at the mess inside and was shocked.

At this time, he discovered that the box buried by the little old man in the corner had been dug out and the medicinal materials were scattered everywhere.

Judging from the mold growing on the medicine, most of it is no longer usable.

Seeing this scene, Li Si felt a chill in his heart. He knew how precious the little old man was to these things.

When I dug it myself, the nervous look of the little old man was still vivid in my mind. Now these medicinal materials are scattered everywhere, which means that the little old man may have encountered something unexpected.

Thinking of this, Li Si casually hung the reins of the bay-red horse aside and rushed straight into the room.

As soon as he entered the room, a strong smell of alcohol hit his face.

But at this time, Li Si breathed a sigh of relief, because he saw the little old man sleeping on the bed, smelling of alcohol, and wine jars were placed on the floor around him.

"You bunch of beasts..." the little old man suddenly cursed in his sleep.

It's just that his voice was extremely hoarse, like the sound of two pieces of tissue paper rubbing together. If Li Si hadn't had a pretty good ear, he would have been unable to hear what he was cursing.

Li Si was a little confused at this time. He didn't quite understand why Jingning County had changed so much after he had left for such a short time.

At this time, everything in Jingning County was waiting for improvement, and everyone was very happy, even the beggars had meat to eat.

And why this little old man actually lived a life of drunkenness and dreams made his bad premonition even stronger.

Then, Li Si walked to the side of the little old man, helped the little old man up, took out an Evergreen Pill from the mustard seed space and put it into his mouth.

As the Evergreen Pill was swallowed by the little old man, the sickly blush on his face slowly dissipated, and his breathing became much more even.

Seeing him like this, Li Si also breathed a sigh of relief. He just saw that although the little old man was still alive, he had lost a lot of weight. It was probably that he hadn't eaten much recently and had been drinking.
