Chapter 45: Miniature People You Can Play With and Eat 02
In order to make the food taste better, the giants in this world raise the mini people to be plump and white with meaty texture at all costs, which results in most of the mini people having ugly appearances and drooling.
Its only function is to appear on the dining table.
And Jane Bushian on the plate was very handsome. All the giants had never seen such a beautiful person. Coupled with his small stature, he looked like an exquisite little doll.
Moreover, his skin is very fair and tender, without any excess fat, and his limbs are slender. Even if you eat it, it will definitely taste very good.
After a while, several tall giants crowded in front of the stall selling Jane Busian.
The giants started asking, "How much is this vegetable man?"
The giant who was selling Jian Bumian chuckled a few times and spread his hands: "There is no fixed price. You can bid on your own."
He believed that this beautiful and exquisite little vegetable figurine would be sold at a good price.
The giants fell silent, lamenting in their hearts that this merchant was such a jerk.
"Eight hundred gold coins." A giantess dressed like a noble lady spoke first. Her eyes stayed on Jian Bumian. She thought that this vegetable person had such good skin, so he must be a beauty tonic.
"One thousand gold coins."
"One thousand and five!"
"Two thousand gold coins."
As expected, many giants took a fancy to Jian Bushian and surrounded the place where he was in three layers.
Suddenly, a deep and heavy male voice sounded.
"Thirty thousand gold coins."
The crowd was shocked. Thirty thousand gold coins, what does that mean? It was enough to buy a small house in the city! No one would pay such a high price to buy a weak and incompetent rookie.
Unless it is a rich man with countless wealth, no one can afford a higher price than this.
They turned their heads and looked curiously towards the source of the sound.
What they saw was not an elegant nobleman, but a middle-aged man dressed as a servant. The middle-aged man took off his hat and bowed slightly to everyone.
"It wasn't me who paid for it, but my master asked me to help buy him."
The giants sighed softly, feeling a little regretful. They had originally wondered what kind of noble person could afford such a sum of money.
They discussed for a while, then left one after another and continued to look for new prey in the night market.
The giant who was selling Jane Bumian was so shocked by the sudden high price that he could be described as flattered.
His legs went weak and he almost knelt down before the servant of the mysterious noble. His voice trembled:
"Thank you, thank you for your gift. I will pack this vegetable for you right away..."
He used to sell raw human flesh. One day, he accidentally discovered such a beautiful vegetable man. He thought of selling him directly instead of killing him. He didn't expect to get such a good price.
He took out a cardboard box, carefully lifted Jian Bumian's collar, put him into the box, and said with a charming smile: "This green hand has delicate skin and tender flesh. We can play with him and eat him at the same time..."
Before he could finish his words, a gunshot rang out, and a large, smoking hole suddenly appeared on his forehead.
His eyes were wide open, his face was distorted, revealing his anger, but he no longer had the chance to argue with the other party. He fell straight backwards, his brains flowing out of the small hole in his forehead.
The servant put away his pistol, took off his hat, and bowed again.
"The master also ordered me to kill the person who sold this vegetable."
"But the master will not deceive you."
The servant took out a bank card with a huge deposit in it and threw it on the giant's body, which was still open-eyed.
"The password is eight eights."
After saying that, he picked up the cardboard box containing Jane Busian and walked out of the night market.
Jian Bumian stayed in the cardboard box, covering his ears, and had no idea what was happening.
Only after he realized that it was not so noisy around him did he loosen his hands that were covering his ears, and leaned over the edge of the cardboard box with both hands, revealing half of his head, and looked around curiously.
In addition to the barbecue vendor, he also saw more vegetable vendors.
They make the mini-people into all sorts of delicious food.
Jian Busian saw a giant vendor throwing many little people whose heads and bones had been removed into a juicer and blending them into meat paste. He then put the paste in plastic cups like milk tea and sold it to the giant children who came by.
Otherwise, they would wash the vegetable people that look just like humans, remove the internal organs, and then place them in a row on a chopping board. After chopping them into strips with a kitchen knife, they would grab a handful and throw them into a frying pan to fry them, making them into snacks that could be eaten while walking around.
Jian Bumian also saw the replica of Octopus Dumplings in the real world - Human Head Dumplings.
The giant fished out many already cut little human heads from the oil barrel, put them in the molds one by one, fried them until golden brown, and then put seaweed, salad sauce, and sesame seeds on them.
Jian Bumian: "..."
The audience in the live broadcast room was horrified.
[Ahhh, how could they do that?! This is a human who looks exactly like them!]
[The audience above, please don't judge them by our moral standards. There are no carnivorous animals in their world. In their eyes, mini people are just edible animals.]
【San value drops rapidly.】
[In fact, they look delicious. I want to eat the deep-fried human head meatballs. They are definitely crunchy and the brains will burst out.]
[I am the only one who is curious about what kind of person bought Mian Mian. Could it be Mian Mian’s mysterious boyfriend? ]
***
Before he knew it, the servants brought Jane Busian out of this underground night market.
Jian Busian saw the appearance of the city in this copy.
——This is a future world with highly developed technology.
Countless high-rise buildings rise into the clouds, spaceships fly in the sky, and there are holographic projections everywhere, which has a bit of cyberpunk flavor.
Unfortunately, no matter how advanced the technology here is, it has nothing to do with the greenhorns who are as poor as animals.
The servant took Jane Bumian and got into a hovercraft.
The hovercraft started automatically and left the ground.
In the blink of an eye, the hovercraft arrived at its destination.
Jian Busian quietly stuck his head out and saw where the so-called head of the family lived.
It was a very luxurious manor, filled with various villas and gardens, comparable to a small exquisite town.
The manor is located in the suburbs far away from the city, and is not coexisting with those noisy ordinary giants. It can be seen at a glance that the owner of this manor is very wealthy.
On both sides of the manor gate stood a taller and stronger giant. They were all carrying weapons, and when they saw the hovercraft entering, they all bowed to show their goodwill.
Jian Bumian was in the cardboard box and heard the driver of the hovercraft asking the guard, "Is the owner of the house in this manor now?"
The guard nodded: "Yes, the master is in a good mood these days, so he wants to come here for a few days of vacation."
Jane Bumian: “???”
This NPC patriarch actually has more than one piece of territory?
That would require a lot of money.
The hovercraft drove into the manor and stopped in front of the largest villa in the manor.
All the decorations of this manor are imitating the Western Roman style. Elegantly trimmed flowers and fountains can be seen everywhere. Every few steps you take, you can see lifelike sculptures of gods standing there.
It seems to make people feel like being in a fairy tale world.
Jian Busian thought that if the people here didn't eat each other, the setting of the little men and the giants would indeed look very fairy-tale-like.
The servant took out the box containing Jian Bumian and handed it to the maid waiting at the door, saying, "I have found the master's dish. The master should want to eat it. Bring it to the back kitchen."
At the beginning, the head of the family asked him to find a good-looking vegetable man. The vegetable man should be a young man with black hair, white skin and a pair of amber eyes.
The moment the servant saw Jian Bumian in the downtown area, he knew that he must be the head cook of the family.
After all, there is no one more beautiful than this vegetable.
The maid took Jane Bumian and walked towards the kitchen in the villa.
When Jian Busian heard the word "rice man", a subtle feeling suddenly surged in his heart.
No way, no way, he is going to be eaten as soon as he comes up?
The audience suddenly became nervous.
[Death at the beginning, no wonder the system said that we have to wait for Mianmian to survive for 12 hours before assigning tasks. ]
[Slurp, slurp, I want to eat Miemian. Miemian must be delicious. I can already imagine what it tastes like. It must be smooth and tender. ]
[No, I'm still waiting for Mianmian to be eaten in another way. ]
[Are you sure this servant and maid aren't courting death on their own initiative? What if the master of the house wants to be a vegetable who lives? ]
Jane Busian was taken to the kitchen by the maid.
Vegetables are the only meat in this world, so no matter whether they are commoners or nobles, the largest food reserve in the kitchen is vegetables.
At the kitchen door facing the air vent, Jian Bushian saw many small vegetable figures hanging there. Upon closer inspection, he found that they were all dehydrated and shriveled, like strips of bacon, hanging there to dry.
Not to mention the kitchen. As soon as Jian Bumian was brought in, he smelled a familiar, disgusting smell of human fat. The chef's chopping board was filled with human body parts of all sizes.
Just as Jian Busian was wondering what kind of food he would be made into, he was thrown into a white porcelain plate and a stream of cold water washed over it.
His clothes were all soaked, and his whole body was covered with water droplets. The dust he had picked up along the way was also washed away, and his moist skin became translucent.
A thin piece of clothing was thrown in front of him, obviously wanting him to put it on himself.
Jian Busian picked up the clothes and found that the texture of the clothes was very strange. When he touched it hard, the touched fabric turned into a sticky liquid.
He put it in his mouth and tasted it and found it was frosting.
This gauzy gown is made from edible icing.
But this is not surprising, as vegetable people are meant to be eaten and usually do not wear clothes. Even if they wear clothes, they are made of edible cloth to increase their edibility.
Just like humans wrap meat in a layer of vegetable leaves before eating it.
Jian Bumian found a secluded place and put on the edible clothes.
After he put on this clothes, his body was covered with icing, giving off an enticing sweet smell. Coupled with his handsome appearance, he looked like a fairy tale character from a candy house.
When the giant cook saw him change his clothes, she muttered, "This cook is quite smart..."
As she spoke, she picked up Jian Busian again.
Just when Jane Busian thought she was going to have herself beheaded and gutted, the cook threw him onto another plate.
“Crash——”
This time, what Jian Busian touched was no longer a cold porcelain surface, but a sticky unknown liquid.
There was so much sticky liquid that he kept falling down, and he had to step on something hard to keep his footing.
He saw clearly the appearance of these unknown liquids.
White and sticky.
...It's salad dressing!
The boy, wrapped only in a thin layer of icing gauze, could easily be exposed.
He was thrown into a plate of slime. His overly white skin seemed to be in some kind of harmony with the white slime.
At the same time, Jian Bumian found that what he was stepping on was some cut-up fruit.
...Is this a vegetable fruit salad? ?
The giant cook's soliloquy confirmed Jane's sleepless thoughts.
"Such a beautiful vegetable can only be used to make salad and eaten raw."
Because there is only one edible meat in this world, many cooking methods and seasonings have been invented for this ingredient.
But the cook felt that no matter how the dish was prepared, it would cover up the deliciousness of the little cook itself, and even the best seasonings would pollute the taste of the cook itself.
The only way to cook it is to eat it raw, so that you can taste the deliciousness of this dish itself.
However, the cook was afraid that the owner would find the dish too monotonous, so after thinking it over, she decided to add some salad dressing.
If the owner of the house doesn't like the salad dressing that goes with the vegetable man, he can just tear off the layer of human skin that is stained with the salad dressing.
“Puff——”
Before Jian Bumian could react, the cook picked up the salad jar, scooped a spoonful of thick salad dressing and poured it on his head.
Jane Bumian has completely turned into a snowman submerged in salad dressing.
Because the salad dressing was so wet, he could feel his frosted clothes, which had completely melted.
Now, he was soaking in white slime without any clothes on.
Jane Busian's cheeks flushed slightly, and she huddled into the salad dressing embarrassedly, leaving only half of her head exposed for air.
The cook ignored Jane Bumian's little action. Seeing that the food was almost ready, she picked up the tray and told the maid to take it to the master's room.
The villa is very large, not to mention for a mini person like Jane Bushian who has become much smaller.
After going all the way, Jian Bumian, who was curled up in the plate, felt dizzy.
Finally, he felt himself being placed on the table and heard the deafening voice of the maid.
"Your Majesty, this is the dish you requested."
The next moment, Jian Busian heard an extremely familiar voice.
“Just put it here.”
After the maid left, Jian Bumian poked his head out. As expected, he saw a very familiar face and subconsciously murmured the other person's name: "Talos?"
The man was wearing a black cloak and had his silver hair tied up. He had an extremely handsome face. Compared with the bloated giant that Jian Bumian had seen all the way, he seemed very out of place.
But the man still grew many times bigger, even taller than other giants. If calculated by human height, he would be at least ten meters tall.
If Talos didn't lower his head on his own initiative, Jane Bumian would have to raise her head with great effort to see his perfectly curved jaw.
Talos seemed to have known that Jane Busian would become so small. His expression was calm. He raised his hand and wanted to take Jane Busian out of the sticky liquid.
Jian Bumian was panicking. You know, he was completely naked now, and only by soaking in salad dressing could he cover his body.
He shrank into the salad dressing, preventing the man from trying to get him out. Only his soft black hair was visible in the white sticky liquid.
Talos noticed that Jane was not sleeping properly, frowned, and asked tentatively, "You are not wearing any clothes now?"
Jian Busian stuck his head out and muttered, "Yes..."
The salad dressing was bubbling with white bubbles.
Talos: "But soaking in salad dressing for so long is bad for your skin. You need to get out quickly."
Jian Bumian: "..."
But he didn't want to be caught by Talos without any clothes.
Moreover, he had become so small now and had no power to resist at all. If Talos accidentally touched any sensitive part of his body, he wouldn't even be able to struggle.
...This is really shameful.
Talos did not continue to embarrass Jane Bumian. He picked up the salad plate where Jane Bumian was and walked into the bathroom.
He filled a cup with warm water and placed it next to Jane Bumian, saying, "The warm water is in the cup next to you, and the clothes are also placed next to you. Wash your body, put on your clothes and go out. Don't worry, I won't look at you."
He knew that Jane Busian was easily shy. If he deliberately bullied her under such circumstances, Jane Busian would definitely be angry and would ignore him for a long time.
Jane Bumian waited until Talos left before carefully getting out of the salad dressing plate.
His entire body was covered in salad dressing, even his hair was covered in the white goo.
The whole person looks like a snow-white, fluffy baby rabbit.
He glanced at the mouthwash cup next to him that was as tall as him, stepped on the soap, slowly got into the cup, and soaked in the clean warm water.
It took Jane Bumian almost half an hour to wash off the salad dressing all over her body, revealing her fair and soft skin again.
He tore off a small piece of toilet paper, wiped himself clean, and put on the clothes Talos had prepared for him.
The clothes are normal men's pajamas, not weird women's and frosting clothes.
He sat on the edge of the sink and used another clean roll of toilet paper to try to dry his wet hair.
Common daily necessities such as toilet paper, hand sanitizer, water cups, etc., have been magnified countless times in this copy for Jian Bushian, and are completely inexhaustible.
He thought he had used up a whole roll of toilet paper to wipe himself, but when he looked back, he only used two pieces of tissue paper.
"call……"
After taking a shower and getting dressed, he stood up and stretched his body.
Suddenly, he heard the system's voice.
[Congratulations to player Jian Bumian for surviving for twelve hours in this dungeon. ]
【Now issuing dungeon tasks and system strategy tasks. 】
[Dungeon Mission: Reverse the status of the mini-men and giants.]
As soon as the content of this task appeared, the live broadcast room instantly became lively.
[Ah? Are you sure this system isn't kidding me again? The mini-people are now called vegetable people, and they are the same as food. How can they possibly resist? ]
[The giant can crush the mini-man with one foot, not to mention that the giant in this instance has mastered advanced technology. How can this system task be completed...]
What if the positions of miniature people and giants were reversed, and miniature people became intelligent, small, and delicate people, while giants would be large and useless animals? It looks quite interesting.
Jian Bumian didn't react much, he continued to ask: "What about the system task?"
[This time the dungeon mission is very simple. 】
【Marry your target. 】
Jane Busian: "...getting married in this copy?"
【right. 】
"..." Jian Bushian knew with his nose that in this copy, it was impossible for a noob and an ordinary person to get married. Even if they did get married, it would not be recognized by the world.
Jane Busian was having a headache again.
However, compared to the task of sleeping with the target in the previous copy, the task of this copy seems much purer.
Jane Busian would rather complete the task of getting married.
Before he knew it, Talos, who had been waiting outside the door for a long time, entered the bathroom.
Talos: "Are you dressed?"
The boy had just finished taking a shower, his body was covered in moisture, and his undried hair hung down wetly, sticking to his fair forehead.
He sat on the edge of the sink and nodded.
Talos picked up Jane Bumian and placed her on his shoulder.
This time, Jian Busian’s perspective is no longer just to see people’s calves.
Not only could he have an unobstructed view of the entire bedroom, he could also see the man's thick silver eyelashes and handsome features.
He sat on Talos' neck and pulled a strand of his long silver hair with one hand. The feeling of wrapping the cool hair in his hand was quite wonderful, and he couldn't help but pull a few more strands of his hair.
Talos let Jane Busian pull his hair and play with it.
He let Jane Bumian stay on his shoulder while he sat back at his desk to deal with today's business.
The role played by Talos in this copy is the monarch of this country, who possesses countless power and wealth.
But Talos was not interested in this, his attention was still on his little lover.
He could clearly feel the boy moving on his shoulders, especially those two lumps of soft flesh, which rubbed against his skin all the time, like two soft and sticky marshmallows.
But his little lover had become too small, and he couldn't bully her. It would be bad if she broke something.
Talos warned himself countless times.
After a while, Talos heard Jane Busian's soft voice in his ears:
After Jian Bumian became smaller, the words she said became much softer in his ears, like the babbling sounds of a kitten.
"Talos, do you know...where are there any living vegetable people here?"
Talos: "Yes, do you want me to take you there?"
"good."
Talos stood up and left the bedroom with Jane Bumian.
The guards stationed on both sides of the bedroom door saw that the little vegetable man who was supposed to be eaten had a clean body, soft hair, and neat clothes, and did not look like he had been bullied at all.
What made them feel even more absurd was that the little vegetable actually sat on His Majesty's shoulders and pulled His Majesty's hair in a very rude manner? !
But they could not see any anger on his Majesty's handsome face, and even saw a hint of willingness to contribute.
The guards were so shocked that they were speechless. They didn't dare to ask or say anything.
Talos took Jane Bumian straight to the kitchen. Along the way, many servants bowed and knelt to Talos, and were also shocked that Jane Bumian was still alive.
Talos was too lazy to even glance at these NPCs and came to a small corner in the kitchen.
There is a wooden door in the small corner, which is the entrance to the basement behind the kitchen.
"There are many living people imprisoned here who are to be used as food." Talos said calmly without changing his expression.
"etc."
Jane's sleeplessness stopped Talos in his tracks.
On either side of the basement entrance, there are two wine bottles.
The wine jar was filled with white liquid.
But when Jian Bumian took a closer look, he found that those were not white liquids, but many densely packed millet grains. The millet grains were packed tightly in the transparent wine jar, and from a distance, they could easily be mistaken for liquid.
Jian Busian frowned and looked at the millet grains carefully.
After a long time, Jian Bumian finally discovered that these millet grains were people.
They are male and female, old and young, with hands and feet and different facial features.
They were even still alive, but they were stuffed into the wine jars, squeezed together with their own kind, their bodies were squeezed to the point of being deformed, and their faces were pressed tightly against the glass.
Rather than describing them as grains of rice, they look more like wriggling white cockroach eggs.
Their dark eyeballs moved as Talos moved, and their mouths opened wide, letting out mournful cries in unison.
Although they were only the size of rice grains, there were so many of them that when their cries sounded together, it was like gusts of low and hoarse wind passing through the corners of the kitchen.
The author has something to say:
Modified some settings of this copy: the height of the minifigure is only 15cm, and the smallest can be infinitely small, such as the size of a cockroach egg x
