An eerie atmosphere was spreading.
Lu Wu, who was being "stared at" by the blind old man, thought of the information she had previously inquired about.
The people in the village are all ordinary people.
The aura of a mortal and the aura of a ghost are intertwined, giving the impression of a boss with a hidden storyline.
Can you clear this village by defeating the boss?
Lu Wu's mind was very active, and she didn't speak for a moment, while Lou Xiaotian buried himself in his food.
Compared to Boss Lu's pancakes, what he had made before was just a lump of poop. He desperately needed this kind of delicious food to cleanse his taste buds.
The scene fell silent immediately.
What are you selling?
The old man took the initiative to ask a question, breaking the awkward atmosphere.
"Would the old man like a pancake?"
"It's delicious."
As a stall owner, you need to be hospitable to all potential customers.
Lu Wu, having banished her wild imagination, performed a memorable scene—laughing for the blind.
The old man's gray eyes darted around a few times, the white film within them sending chills down one's spine.
Seeing the old man playing "Red Light, Green Light" with her, Lu Wu, wanting to break the ice, pointed to Lou Xiaotian on the side.
"If you don't believe me, ask him."
As he spoke, he kicked Lou Xiaotian, signaling him to put in more effort.
"oh oh!"
Lou Xiaotian realized what was happening, wiped his mouth, and looked like he hadn't had enough.
He made the same mistake as Lu Wu: the other person couldn't see his emotional performance.
After receiving a glare from Lu Wu, Lou Xiaotian chuckled and resumed his duties as tool number two.
With Qin Yihao absent, he has to step up and take on the main responsibility.
"Grandpa, Mr. Lu really didn't lie to you, this pancake is delicious."
"Boss Lu uses only the finest ingredients. This high-grade wheat flour paste, after being fried and baked, has an incredibly rich wheat aroma."
"The taste is simply superb."
"The outer crust is chewy, while the inside is crispy, making a 'crunch' sound when you bite into it."
Lou Xiaotian, getting more and more excited as he spoke, walked over to the old man, put his arm around the old man's shoulder, and began to introduce the topic.
"Especially the sweet and spicy sauce that Boss Lu made, I dare say, all other sauces are inferior, they all smell so good that I'm dizzy."
"When I bit into it, the sauce flowed out, and I even ate the little bit of sauce off my fingers."
When he got excited, he patted the old man on the shoulder, causing the old man to stumble.
Just from his tone, you could tell that Lou Xiaotian was really satisfied with the taste of the pancakes.
Lu Wu gave Lou Xiaotian a thumbs up for his awesome behavior.
I've failed miserably. I've really failed miserably.
"Grandpa, it's fate that we met. Here, I'll treat you to this pancake. If you like it, come again later."
"Boss Lu, what are you waiting for? Bring out the pancakes."
"Give me five portions, four of them are for me."
The nouveau riche waved his hand and placed the spirit stones on the stall.
Lou Xiaotian ignored the old man's refusal.
The rich throw money around regardless of whether you want it or not.
Lu Wu remained silent, only waving the pancake spatula incessantly.
After practicing for ten minutes, Lu Wu handed in her hard-earned answer sheet, and Lou Xiaotian placed a pancake in the old man's hand.
"Try it."
"Be careful, it's hot."
Lou Xiaotian thoughtfully gave a reminder.
Although the old man couldn't see, he could feel the warm pancake in his hand.
The aroma of wheat and eggs filled the air, making my already hungry stomach rumble wildly.
The old man's expression turned complicated at his body's direct reaction. He sighed, his lips twitching slightly as he said, "Thank you."
"You're welcome, please eat."
As the pancake drew closer, the old man could smell the aroma of sesame seeds and scallions, as well as the unique scent of sweet and spicy sauce—something he had never experienced before.
His greedy stomach urged him to eat quickly.
Amidst the fresh aroma of wheat, the old man slowly opened his mouth and tentatively took a bite.
Click!
A crisp sound rang out, proving the young man wasn't bragging.
You can experience both softness and crispiness in one pancake.
What touched the old man the most was the sauce.
The thick, smooth sauce is spread on the pancake, gradually infusing the fillings with its flavor.
Sweetness comes first, followed by spiciness.
It's sweet without being cloying, and spicy without being overpowering.
The rich flavors completely whetted the old man's appetite, and without needing to be urged, he ate heartily.
A few crumbs of pancake fell to the ground.
The old man casually scooped it up, put it in his mouth, and smacked his lips a few times.
This move stunned the two onlookers.
What a master!
Seeing the old man's blissful expression, Lu Wu gave Lou Xiaotian a "good job" look.
The sun rises from the east, casting its magnificent rays.
The small seaside village, which appeared dark and dilapidated in the night, was draped in a beautiful coat by the morning glow, dispelling its chilly atmosphere.
More people are leaving their homes.
The villagers who lived near the east entrance of the village were attracted by the aroma, but did not approach.
Instead, he stood at the village entrance, quietly watching the stalls.
Each face conveyed curiosity and a deathly stillness that Lu Wu couldn't understand.
Several children, holding their elders' hands, peeked out from behind the adults, looking out with innocent eyes.
The adult villagers had a look of sorrow in their gloomy eyes.
Despite being only a dozen meters apart, Lu Wu felt as if she were in two different worlds.
That sense of alienation cannot be explained simply by the word "closed off".
Such intense contradictions transformed into invisible chains that enveloped the entire village.
To draw a circle on the ground and imprison oneself.
Lu Wu remembered this word.
"uncle……"
Lou Xiaotian opened his mouth as if to ask something, but saw the old man raise his head.
