The person who spoke was a young man, who looked to be in his twenties, probably around the same age as Lu Qingjiu.
"What did you say?" Lu Qingjiu stared, thinking he had misheard.
"I said I want them all." The young man casually picked up a tomato from Lu Qingjiu's truck, wiped it on his clothes, and then took a big bite. He mumbled, "Yes, this is the taste."
Lu Qingjiu said, "Are you sure you want them all? There are several hundred kilograms here." Several hundred kilograms was just Lu Qingjiu's casual estimate, he didn't know exactly how much there was.
"Yeah." The young man nodded and ate the tomato in two or three bites. Then he took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to Lu Qingjiu. "I run a restaurant in the city. A few days ago, my friend tried your tomatoes and said they were delicious."
Lu Qingjiu asked doubtfully: "Your friend said the tomatoes are good? But didn't I just sell them once..." He glanced at the business card, which had the words "Chao Qianyu" written on it, and the position below was the general manager of the hotel.
"Yeah." Chao Qianyu said, "That time."
Lu Qingjiu said, "Can you take all of this? I still have quite a bit at home."
"You still have a lot at home?" Chao Qianyu's expression became a little strange when he heard this. He asked, "Where do you live?"
"Shuifu Village." Lu Qingjiu did not hide the address. This town is so small and everyone is well-informed. Even if he didn't tell it, Chao Qianyu would find out sooner or later.
"Can I go take a look?" Chao Qianyu said, "If it's suitable, I can take over all your tomatoes."
Lu Qingjiu said, "Okay." Contracting the family's vegetables to a restaurant is naturally much more convenient than selling them individually.
"Then I'll find a free time next time to visit your home." He waved to Qianyu, and two people came out from behind and started unloading the goods from the truck, "Let's weigh it."
After the tomatoes were weighed, there were more than 400 kilograms in total. Chao Qianyu directly paid Lu Qingjiu in cash. Lu Qingjiu happily put more than 1,000 yuan into his pocket, thinking that they could have a big dinner in the evening.
However, during the entire transaction, Yin Xun, who was always talkative, said little. It was not until Lu Qingjiu drove his car home that he said, "Qingjiu, it's not a good idea to let him come to our house like this, right?"
Lu Qingjiu asked, "What's wrong?"
Yin Xun had a strange expression on his face. He said, "Hmm... have you heard of a legend?"
Lu Qingjiu said: "What legend?"
"The door of your home is actually a barrier. Dirty things outside can't come in casually." Yin Xun said, "Unless you invite it in."
Lu Qingjiu: “…but.”
Yin Xundao: "But what?"
Lu Qingjiu said, “But there seems to be some dirt in our backyard.”
When Yin Xun heard this, he looked as if he had been struck by lightning, and his lips trembled slightly: "So you are not afraid at all?"
Lu Qingjiu: "Of course I'm afraid, but I don't have the money to buy another house."
Yin Xun: “…”
Lu Qingjiu sighed regretfully while holding the steering wheel: "I seem to vaguely understand why the protagonist in the movie refused to move out of the haunted house..." Who the hell doesn't want to move? It's just because he's poor. Fortunately, the female ghost in his backyard is quite well-behaved. She doesn't often come out for a stroll on weekdays. Occasionally, she can even help people grow hair. She can be said to be an environmentally friendly female ghost.
Yin Xun lay listlessly beside him and said, "Jiu'er, I really admire you."
Lu Qingjiu thought to himself, I admire myself quite a bit.
Having made a lot of money today, Lu Qingjiu decided to have a big meal. He and Yin Xun went to the nearby meat market and bought a lot of meat, planning to barbecue it in the evening.
After arriving home, Yin Xun volunteered to light the fire, while Lu Qingjiu was in charge of marinating the meat. Bai Yuehu also came over and stood next to Lu Qingjiu, watching him cut the meat into small pieces, and said, "Is the car easy to use?"
"Hmm?" Lu Qingjiu said, "A car? It's quite useful." This small truck was much more comfortable than the cars he usually drove. It was powerful enough that it was effortless even when climbing winding and steep mountain roads.
Bai Yuehu nodded, but after asking the question, he did not leave. Instead, he looked Lu Qingjiu up and down and suddenly asked, "Did you meet any strange people today?"
Lu Qingjiu paused and turned back to ask, "What do you mean?"
Bai Yuehu said: "It means literally."
"Strange person?" Lu Qingjiu threaded the beef onto the sharpened wooden stick and thought about it. "No." He paused for a moment as he thought of something. "But a big customer bought all our tomatoes, so we came back so quickly."
"Oh." Bai Yuehu responded and turned away. Lu Qingjiu didn't understand what he meant.
After putting the marinated meat on the grill, they started grilling. Lu Qingjiu's grilling skills were average, but Yin Xun was quite good at it.
When grilling meat, you must choose half fat and half lean meat. When the fat is burned and grilled on the fire, it will make a sizzling sound, and the fat will come out of the meat and drip into the fire, making a popping sound. The aroma of the meat will fill the whole house.
Lu Qingjiu was grilling seriously with his head down, but he felt something pulling at his trouser legs. He looked down and saw two little black pigs sitting next to him, staring at him eagerly.
"Fuck!" Lu Qingjiu was shocked. "Why did you two come out?"
Xiaohua hummed, then made a jumping gesture, indicating that she had run out on her own.
Yin Xun screamed beside him: "Wow, Lu Qingjiu, your pigs are rebelling and can even jump out of the pigpen."
Upon hearing this, Xiaohua rushed over, raised her short legs and kicked Yin Xun.
Lu Qingjiu already knew that the two pigs in his family had extraordinary origins. He said, "What are you doing out here? We're roasting pork, you can't eat it, right?!"
Xiaohua hummed in anger.
Lu Qingjiu didn't understand either, so he simply took two corn cobs and handed them to the two little piglets. Xiaohua was happy then, and rubbed Lu Qingjiu's feet with her head, and started eating happily.
Bai Yuehu went into the house to get some seasoning, and when he came out he saw two pigs gnawing on his corn cobs. His eyes turned cold, and Xiao Hei and Xiao Hua, who were gnawing happily, froze instantly. Brother Xiao Hua was a little stronger, but sister Xiao Hei fell on her back, looking as if she was dead.
"Puff——" Yin Xun, who was drinking water nearby, spat out a mouthful of water when he saw this scene and was choked to death.
Xiaohua put down the corn cob in her mouth resignedly, bit her sister's leg, and backed away little by little, as if she was planning to go back to the pigpen.
Lu Qingjiu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said to Bai Yuehu: "Okay, don't scare them anymore."
Bai Yuehu glanced at Lu Qingjiu, frowned, and said seriously: "They eat my food."
Lu Qingjiu: "...It's okay, we bought a lot of meat today, enough for you, all the meat is yours, give them two corn cobs that they don't like to eat." As he said that, he handed a plate of freshly grilled meat to Bai Yuehu.
The White Moon Fox was satisfied, let the two little piglets go, and went to eat the meat.
Yin Xun also specially bought a lot of chicken feet. After roasting, they were very soft and sticky. They were brushed with special seasoning and eaten one by one. There was no need to remove the bones at all. The meat came out with just a bite of the teeth.
After enjoying the meal, Lu Qingjiu opened a few bottles of beer, and the three of them were very happy.
After eating, they didn't clean up because it was too late. They went back to their rooms to sleep, thinking of cleaning up the next day.
Lu Qingjiu had drunk a little too much. He lay in bed with a dizzy head, but he was extremely awake. He couldn't fall asleep no matter what. The sky outside darkened and the entire sky was shrouded in darkness.
After an unknown amount of time, Lu Qingjiu suddenly heard a strange noise coming from the yard, as if something was dragging on the ground.
Lu Qingjiu shook his head, unsure if this was an illusion caused by his drunkenness. He slowly crawled out of bed and saw a strange white figure appear in his yard. It looked like a huge animal standing on the ground. The animal was covered in white feathers and had a bird-like face. A long blood-red beak protruded from its mouth, but it was not as big as a bird. It was about two meters tall, even blocking out the moonlight.
Lu Qingjiu rubbed his eyes heavily.
The creature seemed to have noticed Lu Qingjiu's gaze, and slowly opened its mouth, revealing a strange smile. Then it flapped its wings and flew directly towards Lu Qingjiu. Lu Qingjiu was startled by the animal, but saw a black mist rising from the sky, instantly enveloping the birdman.
"Ah--" Lu Qingjiu heard a shrill scream, and the sounds of bones breaking and meat being chewed rang in his ears. He vaguely saw a huge beast's eye in the black fog. These eyes made Lu Qingjiu freeze. It was difficult for him to describe his feelings at the moment. It was as if the instinct of survival told him that if he moved, he would die here.
After a few minutes, the eyes disappeared in the black fog, which gradually faded away, and the courtyard returned to peace again.
However, on the ground in the yard, there was a pile of white feathers stained with blood. Lu Qingjiu blinked, but found that the feathers were gone too.
He lay back on the bed in a daze, wondering if he was drunk, or dreaming, or if everything that had just happened was real, and a two-meter-tall bird really had entered his house and was then swallowed up by something... in one gulp.
Is it the vixen in my house? But the beast in the black fog doesn't look like a fox at all...
