Strange World Survival Manual

Chapter 31 First hearing about the City God

The water in the Fenghe River was very fast, and the wind by the river was naturally strong. When Li Si reached the river, the wind blew his robe.

After opening the jar, he grabbed a handful of white powder, then put it in the air and slowly opened his fingers. The powder flew away in the wind and fell onto the river.

The white powder that fell on the river was soon photographed by the waves and disappeared.

The powder was the bones of small animals under his bed. Last night he asked the decapitated ghost to break these bones into powder with his tongue.

After being beaten into powder, there were about 80 kilograms of bone powder, about 40 kilograms of which he scattered into the manure tank on the roadside. Now only these two jars are left. As for the feathers and fur, he burned them in the stove.

As for why he didn't throw all the bone meal into the manure tank, it was because he was afraid that there would be too much bone meal in the manure tank, and the people who came to collect the night incense would be in trouble when they found out.

That's why he took Cao Meng to the river to scatter the remaining ashes.

Li Si was not prepared to dump it directly into the river. He just wanted to throw it up, mainly because the wind might blow it all over him. Moreover, scattering the ashes in handfuls would make him feel very comfortable. He just hoped that all the troubles would disappear like the scattered ashes.

"Sir, what is this?" Cao Meng was curious and opened it and reached for another jar, wanting to open it and take a look.

"Cao Meng, do you believe sir?" Li Si did not answer Cao Meng's question and continued to sprinkle white powder. While watching the scattered powder float away, he turned back and asked Cao Meng.

There was a trace of hesitation in Cao Meng's eyes, but his expression immediately became firm and he said seriously: "Of course I trust you, sir."

Li Si laughed, and then said lightly: "These powders are ashes."

When he heard what he said, Cao Meng suddenly retracted his hand as if it had been bitten by a snake, and took a few steps back in horror.

Seeing Cao Meng's actions, Li Si showed a smile of success and laughed loudly: "Don't be afraid, it's just bone meal from chickens and ducks, not human."

Hearing what Li Si said, Cao Meng breathed a sigh of relief and said with the panic that had not dissipated: "How come Sir, there are so many chicken and duck bone meal?"

"It's a long story. You'll know later." Li Si spread the bone powder quietly, as if he thought of something again, then turned to Cao Meng and asked, "By the way, how long will your father be leaving this time?"

Hearing Li Si ask about his father, Cao Meng hesitated, and then said: "My father usually comes back on the same day of hunting, but occasionally it takes ten days and a half to come back. I think it will take at least half a month for him to come back this time. .”

"I need to trouble you during this time, sir." Cao Meng had a shy look on his face.

Li Si shook his head and laughed, then said with a gentle look on his face: "Actually, it's not a problem. I feel a lot more comfortable with you here. It's good to have someone to keep you company at home."

"Just like this jar, I can't lift it by myself." Li Si pointed to the two jars with a look of helplessness on his face.

Seeing Li Si's answer, Cao Meng scratched his head with a silly smile on his face.

After a while, Li Si scattered all the bone meal here, and then washed the two empty jars in the river and took them back. He was not going to throw away these jars, and he could also take them back to pickle salted vegetables.

Then the two of them walked to the county town. After arriving in Fengmen County, Li Si first went to a clothing store to order some clothes, and bought some shorts and some outfits.

He didn't like the long gown he was wearing very much. It was difficult to run, and it was not as convenient as the short clothes and high-end clothing. So he planned to buy some short hitting and power equipment for use.

While buying clothes, I naturally brought a few pieces to Cao Meng, which made Cao Meng a little flattered and kept saying he didn't want them. But Li Si couldn't stand it and forcefully bought it for him.

Cao Meng was a little embarrassed after getting the clothes, but his eyes showed joy, and at the same time, he looked at Li Si with a look of gratitude.

After getting the clothes, Li Si went to the blacksmith shop where he had ordered the dagger, got the dagger, gave him three taels of silver, and also told the blacksmith that he didn't want the strange knife.

He had the black sword, so naturally he looked down on other weapons. As for this dagger, there was a reason that had been decided before, and he also had the intention of keeping the dagger close to his body.

Because the black sword is almost one meter long, it is not concealed enough, and this dagger can just make up for this shortcoming and serve as a precaution.

After getting the dagger, Li Si took Cao Meng home, and at this time there was a middle-aged man waiting for him at the door of his house.

This man, Li Si knew, was Liu Qin, the master of Fengmen County.

"Ms. Li." When Li Si saw Liu Qin, Liu Qin also saw him and immediately greeted him with a smile.

"Oh, it's Master Liu, do you have a problem with me?" Li Si didn't feel too cold when he saw Liu Qin coming over. Although Liu Qin was said to be a good-looking man, he looked very decent.

But this Liu Qin was not a good person. Li Si's predecessor was tricked by Liu Qin. Once, he told his predecessor that he had a unique book and bought it from a dealer for 50 taels.

At that time, the predecessor thought that Liu Qin was a master from Fengmen County and would not lie to him. At the same time, he also read a few pages. The original owner was pleasantly surprised by the essentials of classics and meanings in it. He thought it was indeed a good book, so he bought it.

However, after the book was sold, the original owner discovered that the scriptures and meanings in the book were scattered here and there, and were incomplete. It didn't look like a manuscript at all, but more like a draft.

At that time, the original owner went to Master Liu to argue with him, but he refused to admit it.

Seeing that Mr. Liu was so powerful, the original owner felt helpless and could only admit that he was unlucky.

This is also the reason why Li Si doesn't like Liu Qin very much. There is something wrong with this man's character.

"Haha, can't I come to you if I have nothing to do?" Liu Qin laughed, but then he said with a smile: "But this time I do have something to tell Xianggong Li."

"The county magistrate has ordered that if anyone asks you about Zhang's house this time, you should say that robbers broke into the house and killed everyone in Zhang's house."

"Don't say it was caused by ghosts." Liu Qin looked around and lowered his voice.

"Yes, I understand." Li Si nodded, indicating that he understood. He naturally knew that it is best to reduce the big to the small, and to reduce the small to nothing.

Otherwise, the people in the county will be panicked and the trouble will be even greater.

"Well, you know best." Liu Qin grinned, obviously appreciating Li Si's knowledge.

"That's right." Li Sisi thought about the original owner and said with a worried look on his face: "The county has been haunted by ghosts recently, so the people should be more careful."

Hearing what Li Si said, Liu Qin laughed, then lowered his voice and whispered: "Don't worry, Mr. Li, the City God will be back tonight."
