"Brother Shen, don't be so polite. Eat something and go to bed early. There will be ghosts howling outside in the second half of the night, and you may not be able to sleep." Wang Qiu saw Shen Luo agreed and gave another reminder.
"good."
Shen Luo responded readily, and his stomach growled in response.
After saying that, he took a pair of black chopsticks from someone else with a wry smile, picked up a piece of meat from the pot, put it to his mouth, and when he was about to take a bite, he suddenly heard the roar of a wild beast outside.
Immediately afterwards, a chaotic noise was heard outside the yard. Wang Qiu's expression changed slightly and he turned his head to look outside the door.
"Huh..."
A gust of wind suddenly swept in, blowing the door open with a loud bang, and causing the bonfire in the room to splash sparks.
"What, what's wrong?" Shen Luo covered the piece of black meat, carefully put it into his sleeve, and then pretended to chew it a few times, smacking his lips and said in panic.
It was already completely dark outside the yard, and the empty yard was pitch black, and nothing could be seen.
Wang Qiu retracted his gaze and saw Shen Luo's throat moving up and down, as if he was swallowing food. A smile appeared on his face and he said:
"It's okay. It's windy at night. It's always like this."
Shen Luo seemed to be choked. He pounded his chest twice and smiled awkwardly at him.
"Brother Shen, eat slowly." Wang Qiu said.
"Enough, enough. How can you be so greedy?" Shen Luo waved his hands and said.
Seeing this, Wangqiu stopped forcing it.
The middle-aged man walked forward cursing and closed the door again.
Just as the door was about to close, Shen Luo suddenly caught a glimpse of a green light on the roof of the front yard, which seemed to be the light from the eyes of some wild animal.
But he didn't say anything. Instead, he wrapped his clothes tightly, leaned back, closed his eyes and took a nap.
At night, there was a sound of tiles rustling. Shen Luo subconsciously wanted to open his eyes, but he forced himself to hold back and pretended to be unaware of it. It was not until the sound became more and more frequent that he rubbed his sleepy eyes and pretended to be awakened.
When he opened his eyes, he found that the people who had been sitting around the fire before were now standing behind the door with their backs to him, while Wang Qiu and the middle-aged man were standing aside.
"Brother Shen, are you awake?" Wang Qiu asked with a smile.
"What happened?" Shen Luo asked puzzledly.
"It's nothing, it's just that some beasts have become bolder and dared to enter this yard tonight." Wang Qiu said.
The middle-aged man looked back after hearing this and said impatiently, "What's going on? Is there something wrong with your Gu? Why hasn't he changed yet?"
"We underestimated Brother Shen. He didn't eat the Gu meat at all, right?" Wang Qiu turned his gaze to Shen Luo and asked.
After hearing this, Shen Luo stopped pretending, stood up, shook his sleeves, and threw the black piece of meat on the ground.
"It's not that I don't want to eat, it's just that the meat you prepared looks so bad. It's disgusting just looking at it. How can I eat it?" Shen Luo spread his hands and said helplessly.
"In these troubled times, if you are really a refugee, why would you care about the taste of the meat? You just want to fill your stomach and save your life. Brother Shen can talk like this, so I think he must be a cultivator who has already passed the stage of fasting. I just don't know what level he is at?" Wang Qiu asked with a dry laugh.
