A tempting fragrance suddenly woke Zhang Fan up from his sleep. He found out only after he had packed up and went downstairs.
Xu Zijun was bringing a large bowl of beef noodles to the table. The rich aroma came from his hands.
"Good morning. Today we're having beef noodles with the beef bone soup I cooked overnight. Try it..."
Today's beef noodles are in clear soup. A bowl of noodles contains half a bowl of beef, and is sprinkled with a lot of coriander and chopped green onions. The emerald green onions sprinkled on top are very appetizing.
“Smells so good!”
Zhang Fan really likes eating beef, but the beef he remembers is not cheap and he usually can't afford to eat a meal of it.
One Chinese New Year, his New Year's Eve dinner was a bowl of fragrant beef noodles. Unfortunately, there was too little beef, only three thin pieces on the surface, which he ate in one bite, and he still savors it to this day.
Seeing this big bowl of beef noodles again, Zhang Fan was in a particularly good mood.
The beef was tender and crispy, with distinct tendons and beef in the mouth. Every bite made him feel particularly satisfied. The taste was completely beyond Zhang Fan's memory of the beef noodles he had had during the Chinese New Year.
Delicious food can make people very satisfied!
Hua Yueying happily ordered a bowl of soy milk first, and then a mouthful of beef noodles. The beef noodles made by Xu Zijun were different from those made by many other restaurants, without the thick red oil soup.
But the taste was fully present, with the unique deliciousness of beef, which was very memorable and made Hua Yueying smile from ear to ear.
I just feel that the bet I made that day was really the smartest one. They are so lucky to have someone like Xu Zijun cooking delicious food.
The key is that she doesn’t have to spend any money. She is really smart.
Hehehehehe…
The daytime was easy to pass. Xu Zijun was thinking about the combination of ingredients, Zhang Fan was drinking tea, and Hua Yueying was tending to her flowers and plants in the yard.
When it got dark and Xu Zijun left, Zhang Fan went to the Tiandi Pawnshop.
"nameless!"
Zhang Fan just shouted casually, and as soon as he finished speaking, Wuming appeared in front of him and lowered his hands respectfully.
"Let's go to the demon world!"
Zhang Fan had a few things on him, including the contract with Meng Po and a small seal of the Tiandi Pawnshop. Hua Yueying was left in the Tiandi Pawnshop by him.
"Master, you are a beautiful jade, and Meng Po is rubble. If anything happens over there, you can ask Wuming to do it. If something really doesn't look right, then come back quickly. When I recover a little bit of my strength, I will go find Meng Po..."
Hua Yueying was a little worried about Zhang Fan. Although she was usually carefree, sometimes rude and liked to joke, this was Zhang Fan's first time going out to collect debts.
She was worried.
"It's okay. There are only a few of us left in the Tiandi Pawnshop. I'm the owner of the pawnshop. If I don't work hard, I'm afraid I'll end up badly. If something really happens, I can't always let women take the lead. I can let Wuming go first..."
Zhang Fan is actually very afraid of death, but he is really afraid of death.
That's why he had to go to great lengths to improve the business of the Tiandi Pawnshop, because only in this way would he avoid being like the previous owner of the pawnshop, who might end up with nothing left.
The black door of the Tiandi Pawn Shop was opened, and gusts of cold wind blew in from inside, just like the air conditioner turned on to 16 degrees in spring. I instantly felt chilly and got goose bumps on my body.
"Master, please!"
Wuming, slightly excited, walked into the black door first. Zhang Fan saw Hua Yueying standing behind him without saying anything, but just looking at her with some worry.
After giving Hua Yueying a wink, signaling her not to worry, Zhang Fan walked into the black door without hesitation.
It was different from the last time he went to heaven. That time, Hua Yueying held his hand and took him to fly among the clouds. All he could see were white clouds floating in the air, which was a pleasant sight!
But this time when Zhang Fan walked into the demon world, he felt cold all over and shivered involuntarily.
When he looked up at the sky, it was not the kind of blue sky with white clouds, but a foggy feeling. There seemed to be haze in the air, and it was gloomy and cold. Originally, Zhang Fan wore short sleeves in the human world.
But when he first came in here, Zhang Fan felt cold. Fortunately, since he became the owner of the Tiandi Pawnshop, his overall physical condition has improved significantly. After staying in this somewhat gloomy environment for a minute or two, he quickly adapted!
"Master, you are too slow. How about I carry you on my back?"
Wuming seemed to have changed here. His movements became very agile. The key was that he walked as if he was blown by the wind. His speed was extremely fast, while Zhang Fan's speed was relatively much slower.
In order to hurry up, Wuming carried Zhang Fan on his back.
In fact, it was more like walking with him in his arms than carrying him on his back. Moreover, Zhang Fan felt that when he walked that way, his body became light, like a gust of wind. No, it was much faster than the wind!
This feeling was very novel to Zhang Fan, but he had been to the Heavenly Palace once with Hua Yueying and was considered knowledgeable, so he was not surprised.
Wuming, who had been secretly observing him, felt inexplicably awed when he saw Zhang Fan's calm expression.
The master, even if he is just a mortal, cannot be underestimated.
"What's it like in the underworld? No means of transportation? Everyone just relies on a pair of legs to float?"
Zhang Fan saw that the scenery around him was gradually changing. The originally foggy area began to have undulating hillsides, and there were even some gray plants that he couldn't name growing on the land.
"The demon world is actually divided into several large areas. The underworld is actually the most similar to the human world. In addition to villages, there are also towns and even carriages and cars. You can travel here. Of course, you need underworld coins..."
"The birth rate in the human world has been very low in recent years, and many people have died over the years. Many souls remain in the underworld, waiting for reincarnation. Some have waited for so long that they almost forget that they are dead, so they continue to live as if they were alive..."
While carrying Zhang Fan on his back, Wuming began to describe things about the underworld to him.
Zhang Fan was also observing. Sure enough, after they floated for a while, the surrounding scenery looked a bit like a village. He even saw a number of two-story houses.
The outside of that kind of house is made of red bricks and green tiles, just like the paper houses used in many funeral processions.
There are many houses like this, one next to the other, and some people even greeted them warmly when they saw the two people coming.
"You are new here, right? Would you like to come in and have some tea? I haven't seen any strangers passing by recently..."
The people who greeted Zhang Fan were wearing long robes and some of them had the word "Fu" embroidered on their clothes. Zhang Fan knew that these were all dead people, but he was not afraid at all?
