"Customer, do you want to eat it with me?"
"It's very delicious!"
"Really!"
Ran Bing's body trembled as she listened.
Because her eyes could clearly see the current appearance of the snake that was handed over!
He was being held in his hand.
He was struggling crazily!
His body was sometimes big and sometimes small. In an instant, he had changed countless postures.
One moment, he was a terrifying monster that was as ferocious as a ghost in a nightmare.
The next moment, he had turned into a terrifying giant snake that was wrapped around the sun!
The next moment, he had turned into an unbelievably beautiful feather crown and a magical creature with wings.
The entire bookstore was in turmoil as the monster struggled.
Around the owner of the bookstore, a continuous trail of spatial ripples appeared.
That was the resistance of the snake monster when it was struggling desperately.
Unfortunately...
The owner of the bookstore only gently waved his hand. All resistance and struggle eventually turned into nothingness.
The snake monster turned back into a weak, limp little snake.
Being held in his hand, all its bones seemed to be broken. The small feather crown head drooped, and the terrifying snake eyes opened listlessly.
Eat him?
Ran Bing immediately shook her head, her face a little pale. "Thank you for your kindness..."
"But..." she thought for a moment and swallowed the words she wanted to say.
If she refused directly, the consequences would be disastrous!
Because Ran Bing knew that she had no right to refuse!
But she didn't dare to really agree.
Ran Bing wasn't stupid. She could imagine the identity of that snake.
Most likely, it was the so-called father of all snakes that the Kunyang people believed in.
The source of disaster in her world.
Therefore, he was the snake god!
Eat a snake god?
Ran Bing just thought about the scarlet beasts and the employees of the umbrella who were neither human nor ghost and instinctively resisted.
Moreover, this was a tribute.
What did tribute mean? There was no need to explain!
Therefore, Ran Bing thought for a moment and chose to answer honestly, "I don't dare to eat it..."
Indeed!
She didn't dare!
Not only was she afraid of the distortion, but also because... she didn't have the right!
Ling Ping'an looked at the customer in front of him and scratched his head.
"You dare to catch it but don't dare to eat it?" It was a little strange!
However, this was a very normal thing.
Just like Ling Ping'an, he had never eaten coriander and celery since he was young.
So...
Holding the snake in his hand, Ling Ping'an was also in a dilemma.
Because, although he loved to eat, but...
He didn't want to kill!
Since he was young, other than fish and prawns, Ling Ping'an had never personally killed anything else.
Most importantly, he was afraid of seeing blood!
Originally, he thought that he could ask this guest to help him slaughter it, and then eat it together as supper.
But now …
Looking at this customer's pale face, Ling Ping'an roughly knew that she didn't dare to kill him...
But here came the problem …
Since he did not dare to kill it, he did not dare to eat it either.
How did she even think to bring a snake?
"Does her family raise snakes?" Ling Ping'an thought, "It should be!"
Guangnan has a tradition of eating snakes since ancient times!
After all, in ancient times, Guangnan was a place where criminals were exiled.
Eating snakes, frogs, owls, and mice were all traditional skills.
Back then, after the great writer Liu Zongyuan came to Guangnan, he fell in love with eating frogs. He even wrote a letter to his good friend Han Yu, introducing several ways to eat frogs.
However, after the advent of industrial civilization, environmentalism was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
No one ate wild animals anymore.
What replaced it was the rise of the breeding industry.
Ling Ping'an remembered that there were several bases for breeding snakes and frogs in the countryside on the outskirts of Jiangcheng City.
They were specially supplied to restaurants in Jiangcheng City. They were safe, hygienic, and cheap.
Therefore, Ling Ping'an thought that this snake should have been bred by this customer's family or taken from a friend.
As for wild snakes?
Ling Ping'an had never considered it.
Because the Federal Empire had a complete wildlife protection act.
All wild snakes were classified into the "Forbidden to Capture/Eat Catalogue". Among them, the rare species were even identified as the "Prison Bottom Sitting Snake".
Any educated adult would not do such a stupid thing!
The forest police would not allow anyone to swagger through the city with a wild snake in their hands.
Thinking of this, Ling Ping'an said to this customer, "Customer, please take a seat... I'll go and deal with this snake first!"
Since he didn't dare to kill it, this customer didn't dare to kill it either.
Then there was only one way to choose, to go to the bar!
In any case, the jar of wine was just sitting there.
Why not use it to soak in snake wine and wait for his aunt to come back, then give her a surprise or a scare!
Thus, he carried the snake in his hand and turned to go upstairs.
Ran Bing carefully sat on the sofa.
She watched the owner of the bookstore carry the snake god in his hand and walk into the distance step by step.
His figure swept past the silent Dark Abyss.
He walked towards a staircase that flowed with darkness.
Creak, creak!
This staircase made a strange and terrifying sound under his feet.
Countless terrifying evil eyes opened in the dark staircase.
Countless huge tentacles quietly slid in the darkness.
Horrible murmurs began to ring out.
"Traitor!" They seemed to be saying, "Betraying your master... You deserve to die..."
These terrifying murmurs were whispering in some extremely terrifying and strange language.
But for some reason, Ran Bing could understand them.
However, at the same time as she understood, Ran Bing suddenly realized that her blood was freezing.
She lowered her head and saw a layer of frost-like thing slowly spreading from her skin.
This was her punishment for hearing and seeing things that she shouldn't have heard or seen!
The frost quickly condensed!
It froze her, even her soul!
What was worse was that in this bookstore, Ran Bing found that she had lost all protection and protection.
This made her terrified.
Meow!
A cat's meow penetrated her soul.
The small black cat jumped down from the counter and jumped onto her.
Behind the cat goddess, the pyramid began to appear.
The faint golden light comforted Ran Bing.
The frost quickly dissipated!
Ran Bing regained her freedom!
She looked at the cat sitting on her lap and quickly said, "Thank you!"
Meow!
The kitten meowed softly as if to say, "This is what I should do, no need to thank me."
Then, he jumped down from Ran Bing's body and obediently lay at Ran Bing's feet.
Like a loyal hound, or like a cat guarding the granary for its master.
… …
Ling Ping'an opened the refrigerator door and took out the wine bottle that the customer had sent last time.
He opened the bottle and put the snake in his hand inside.
Speaking of which, it was a little strange.
Originally, Ling Ping'an was worried that the wine bottle might not be able to hold the snake.
But...
He only loosened the rope that tied the snake, and the snake slid into the wine bottle.
And it looked just right!
He scratched his head and didn't think too much about it. He recorked the wine bottle.
Then, he placed the wine bottle next to the refrigerator. After doing this, he turned around and walked downstairs.
The moment he went downstairs, monsters crawled out from under the sofa in the living room.
These monsters were about the size of pigeons. They had ten thin long legs, but these legs were covered by the glowing tentacles that grew out from both sides of their bodies, so that outsiders could not see them at all.
They had no eyes or other exposed organs. Their movements seemed to rely entirely on those glowing tentacles to sense.
They crawled densely. There were so many of them that the entire living room was filled to the brim!
They crawled towards the wine bottle that was placed next to the refrigerator.
They densely covered the wine bottle.
From their stomachs and mouthparts, slender and sharp needles protruded.
These needles did not have a physical body!
They pierced towards the wine bottle and easily pierced into the wine bottle.
The wine bottle immediately shook violently.
But in the blink of an eye, there was no movement.
However, those terrifying monsters did not stop.
Their tentacles flickered with terrifying colors in the darkness, interweaving into a complex and terrifying whisper.
This was a great job.
It was also their job.
To satisfy all the master\'s requests for food or anything else!
Even if it was to slaughter an old dominator, even if it was to disintegrate an outer god.
They were also familiar with it. In the past countless years, they had completed countless similar tasks.
Their tentacles were shining, and excitement was transmitted to each other!
The progress of their master\'s awakening had accelerated.
He was about to wake up.
Ideally, as long as they waited for a few more decades, they would be able to wait for their master to wake up!
To them, such a short period of time was equivalent to the blink of an eye. It was short and fast!
They just thought that when their master woke up, he would know everyone\'s loyalty.
Every monster was exceptionally excited!
To be able to receive their master\'s praise, even if it was just a glance, even if they died, they would still be smiling!
Thus, they worked even harder and harder!
That\'s right...
Some tentacles flickered and asked questions.
What was the master\'s request this time?
Oh...
Make the traitor\'s soul into delicious pure wine so that the lady could drink it...
… …
Walking down the stairs, Ling Ping\ 'an saw that the guest seemed to be a little reserved sitting on the sofa.
He walked over with a smile, picked up a teacup, and made a cup of steaming hot tea for the guest.
Then, he handed the cup of tea over and said, "Guest, please drink some tea to moisten your throat..."
Ran Bing looked at the cup of tea that was handed to her.
The golden juice had a fragrance that assailed the nostrils.
Some kind of dense substance rose from the surface.
"Is this a reward for my tribute?" Ran Bing thought to herself. She picked up the teacup and carefully took a sip.
Sweet!
This was the first feeling of her taste buds!
This sweetness was not the sweetness of sugar, but the sweetness of the soul and genes.
That kind of sweetness that made her whole body happy and excited!
Then there was the fragrance!
After taking a sip, her lips and teeth were filled with a fresh taste.
It was just a sip, but Ran Bing felt as if she had been baptized.
The killing and battles over the past few days had left some of the drawbacks and effects in her heart and soul, as if they had been gently wiped away by a rag.
Her soul and consciousness felt a wave of relief.
Her heart, which had been suppressed for a long time, relaxed.
Ran Bing couldn't help but take another sip.
Ling Ping'an looked at the customer and asked, "Customer, have you finished reading the book from last time?"
Ran Bing listened and shook her head. "Your Excellency, that book of yours … is really too profound …"
"I'm a little stupid... I haven't finished reading it yet..."
"Profound?" Ling Ping'an listened and found it strange, "It's very simple..." he said.
"That's because I'm too stupid!" Ran Bing put down the teacup and lowered her head in shame. She felt that she had let down the expectations of the owner of the bookstore!
Ling Ping'an scratched his head.
"Could it be that there is some profound story written in" Gun Girl "that has a deep meaning?" He thought.
It was just that he had less contact with such female-oriented comics.
Therefore, he couldn't understand.
After all, men and women had different understandings of many things.
For example, he still couldn't figure out why the fujoshis on WeChat read would shout 'together' when they saw two male celebrities together. He also didn't understand why male celebrities nowadays could become popular by selling fujoshis.
There was no need for acting or singing skills!
There wasn't even a need for artistic ethics!
As long as one sold fujoshis well, there would be a lot of fujoshis willing to buy it!
So...
Ling Ping'an could only accept this reality.
Otherwise, what else could he do?
After thinking for a while, Ling Ping'an asked, "Customer, do you want the same type of book this time?"
"Yes!" Ran Bing nodded.
She reached into her pocket and took out the three banknotes that she had painstakingly killed and plundered over the past few days.
"Please forgive me!" She stood up and bowed in shame, "I only have this much money..."
"I really don't know if it's enough to buy a book from you..."
Ling Ping'an looked at the banknotes that were handed over.
Brand-New banknotes!
Bright red hundred-yuan banknotes!
Then, he looked at this rich second-generation customer.
He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "As expected of a rich second-generation..."
"I reckon that this is the first time this customer has spent money..."
Countless legends about the children of rich people appeared in Ling Ping'an's mind.
Housekeepers, servants, bodyguards...
Super large mansions, helicopters.
Shopping was always about buying, and paying the bill was someone else's business.
He reckoned that this customer had taken these three banknotes from her housekeeper or servant.
And judging from her expression, she might have no idea about the purchasing power of this money!
Thinking of this, Ling Ping'an reached out and took the banknotes from the customer.
He smiled and said, "It's completely enough!"
"Do you still want the same type of book as last time?" He asked.
The other party seemed to nod in a daze.
Ling Ping'an immediately smiled and said, "Customer, please wait a moment..."
He felt proud in his heart, "I knew my strategy was right!"
Look, the kindness from last time was not only reciprocated, but this customer also brought a snake as a thank you gift!
Perhaps that snake was a very precious species!
He even got a business deal!
Three hundred yuan!
This was probably the biggest deal he had made in the past month!
Thinking of this, the young bookstore owner happily hummed a little tune!
But he had no idea what kind of image he had in Ran Bing's eyes at this moment!
Ran Bing looked at him in a daze.
Her pupils reflected the scene that she had seen.
The moment she handed the three banknotes to the bookstore owner.
Every banknote emitted a gorgeous light.
This light, like a stream of water, continuously flowed toward the head of the bookstore owner made of fog!
It was like a siphon.
It was continuously sucked into the head of the fog.
In just a second, all the light was sucked clean.
Ran Bing clearly saw that in the head made of fog, under the thin lenses, the fire in the eye sockets had grown a little bigger!
"Is this his true purpose?" Ran Bing thought, "To devour the origin of the world?"
