South of the city.

There is a butcher shop.

You can buy the meat of many wild beasts in this butcher shop, such as jackals, tigers, leopards, rabbits, pheasants, etc. from the mountains.

Usually the business of this pork shop is quite good.

No, not long after the butcher shop opened today, there was already a long queue in front of the butcher shop.

It's just that there are only two kinds of meat in the butcher shop today, one of which is wild boar meat, and the other kind of meat is unknown.

Those who come to buy meat are relatively wealthy people in the city.

Most of them are housekeepers, kitchen people and the like.

There are also people in some restaurants, brothels and restaurants.

Everyone usually feels quite bored when waiting in line, and they usually chat about some things. For example, today, they were talking about the meat they bought yesterday, and they didn’t know what kind of beast it was. It tasted particularly delicious, and

They also came here for this kind of meat today. I heard that this kind of meat is still in limited supply today like yesterday. If they come late, they may be gone.

But there was a lot more meat on offer today.

"Everyone must have eaten the meat yesterday. It tasted very delicious. The customers in our store were amazed after eating it. They immediately ordered three more plates of meat."

"It's a pity that I bought less of this kind of meat in my store yesterday and it was all sold out. I plan to buy more today."

The person who spoke was an old man. It seemed that he was the shopkeeper of the shop. Unexpectedly, he came here in person. I was afraid that when it was his turn to queue up later, he would make some private deals with the owner of the butcher shop.

Many restaurants, brothels, and inn owners will do this. Once the meat of some wild beast is more delicious, they will reach an agreement with the meat seller, asking the boss not to use this kind of meat next time.

After taking it out for sale, just go to your door and notify them, and they will send someone over to buy all the meat.

For these business people, they would rather not use the meat themselves than have it bought by their competitors. Think about it, if the meat of a certain beast is very delicious, and only

They can eat here, so are they worried about the business in their store?

"I said, Lao Wang, what you are doing is wrong. Of course everyone has a share of such delicious meat. Do you still want to buy all the meat of this beast by yourself?"

"Old Wang, if you really do this, we will ignore you from now on."

"Old Wang, you can't be so greedy. There are so many monsters in our county now. If you are so greedy, I'm sure the monster will find you. Don't let you be eaten by the monster too. Haven't you noticed?

, the monster has eaten all the people in our county who are greedy or greedy in recent times."

Those who spoke were all those who owned brothels, restaurants, or inns, and they were all competing with each other. Now that they saw that Lao Wang wanted to buy all the meat by himself, everyone was full of hostility towards Lao Wang, and even

I wish that Lao Wang would be eaten by monsters at night.

For those housekeepers and kitchen people from wealthy families who come to buy meat, there is not so much to worry about. For them, it would be better if they can buy the same kind of meat as yesterday. It doesn't matter if they can't buy it. There are other things anyway.

Can I buy wild animal meat? As long as it is meat, it doesn’t matter what kind of meat it is.

Besides, Lao Wang was attacked by so many colleagues, and he felt that he couldn't lose his face. At this moment, he was constantly accompanying him. If he offended so many colleagues, he might really attract monsters.

Soon it was Lao Wang's turn. Lao Wang wanted to buy all the meat, but when he thought about how many of his colleagues had targeted him, he didn't dare to do so, so he stretched out his hand and took out a piece of silver.

He said to the butcher: "The meat you paid so much for is still the same as yesterday."

The butcher shop owner looked at the silver, then reached out to grab it and threw it into the money box behind him. Then he directly picked up the knife, chopped up a large piece of meat, and threw it into the basket handed over by Lao Wang.

Lao Wang weighed it and found that it weighed more than a hundred kilograms. He was very happy.

Lao Wang saw that almost half of the meat had been bought by him, and he was very happy at the moment. He thought to himself, I won't buy all the meat, but I bought more than you all. After all, it's still my business. It's best.

Let’s see how you compete with me.

When Lao Wang's colleagues saw this, they all looked at Lao Wang angrily.

At this moment, his words were also strange. Lao Wang didn't pay attention to what these people said. He just thought that these people couldn't eat the grapes and said the grapes were sour. He quickly called to his waiters to carry the meat and quickly

's left.

Next, several people bought this kind of meat, but these people didn’t buy a lot. They all ate it at home, so they only bought enough for the day. If they bought too much meat, they would keep it at home.

It's not fresh anymore. Their master likes to eat fresh meat.

Soon this kind of meat was sold out, and the owner of the butcher shop was very sorry and said to everyone: "If you want to buy this kind of meat, you can only wait until tomorrow. Of course, we also accept reservations. If you didn't buy this kind of meat today, you can first

Leave the money and just come and pick it up tomorrow."

"Oh, it's so unlucky. It's all his fault, Lao Wang. Why did he buy so much meat by himself? Can't he share some with everyone? He's going to take over all the business. Are we all going to drink from the northwest wind in the future?"

"Who asked Lao Wang to come early? Anyway, we can only wait until tomorrow to buy this kind of meat."

"Boss, is there any meat that is close to this kind of meat? As long as it tastes good, we are all in business anyway. We only buy this kind of meat because it tastes better and allows customers to come to our store to eat."

The butcher shop owner shook his head and said, "No more. Only this kind of meat has the best taste. The rest are some wild boar meat. If you want, you can buy some."

Wild boar is a little rough, and many people don't like to eat it. But there are no domestic pigs in this world. They are basically hunted in the mountains and sold.

But they want to open their business, and they have to buy meat no matter how rough it is, otherwise they won't be able to sell meat in the store today.

Just when these people were sighing that they couldn't buy that kind of meat, a scholar, holding a little girl, also appeared in front of the butcher shop.

As soon as the scholar appeared, he smelled a very special smell, and then he frowned.

As soon as he saw so many people in front of the butcher shop trying to grab the kind of meat, he became furious.

Because these people are too shallow and ignorant, how can they buy this kind of meat to eat?

What a bunch of ignorant people.

So the scholar shouted loudly, and a violent force pushed away the people gathered in front of the butcher shop. Then the scholar came to the butcher shop and stared at the owner of the butcher shop with sharp eyes: "Why don't you tell everyone?

, what kind of meat are you selling?"

When the owner of the butcher shop saw the scholar, his expression changed drastically and he wanted to run away, but the scholar had already caught him first and made him unable to move.

"Want to run away? After you speak clearly and tell everyone what kind of meat it is, I will consider whether to let you leave."

Before the butcher shop owner could answer, those who came to buy meat started scolding the scholar angrily.

"What kind of scholar dares to stop us from buying meat? Do you know that kind of meat is very important to us?"

"Have you ever eaten such delicious meat? Do you know what kind of meat it is? How dare you come here and run wild."

"Where did you come from as a scholar? Why are you so unreasonable? We were buying meat at the butcher's shop. Why did you turn us away?"

Suddenly someone seemed to have thought of something, and the scholar's eyes became a little frightened.

"He is a monster, he is a monster. He just roared, and we were rushed away by an invisible force. Only monsters can do this. Please be careful."

"There are monsters, there are monsters."

I don't know who shouted such a voice, and everyone in front of the butcher shop suddenly became panicked, and everyone fled in all directions.

The scholar came here, firstly, to deal with the monster disguised as a butcher, and secondly, to let everyone clearly understand what kind of meat this is. At this moment, the purpose has not been achieved, how can we let everyone escape like this? Seeing everyone running around, the scholar

He directly stretched out his hand and grabbed the people in the direction of their escape. In an instant, he caught all the people who were fleeing.

Everyone was staring at the scholar with horrified expressions, but the scholar was too lazy to look at them. Instead, he raised his voice again and asked the owner of the butcher shop: "My patience is limited. You'd better tell everyone quickly what kind of meat you are selling."

?”

Seeing the determination of death in the eyes of the butcher shop owner, the scholar also frowned slightly, and then said: "As long as you tell everyone what kind of meat it is, I will let you go."

Among the people who came to buy meat, there were some who were more courageous. Seeing that the scholar insisted on asking this question, they were a little anxious, because they felt that if the boss was willing to tell what kind of meat, the scholar might let him go.

Everyone has left.

But the owner of the butcher shop refused to say anything. Not only that, he even bit off his own tongue.

It seemed that even though the scholar had made it clear that he could let him go, he still decided to die after all.

"Since you are seeking death, then I will help you." After the scholar said that, he punched the butcher shop owner directly in the chest. Then the butcher shop owner's body shook for a while, and he even twitched after falling to the ground.

, not long after, it turned into a particularly ugly wild boar with black hair, red eyes, and long tusks.

"See clearly, he is the monster."

"Since he doesn't want to tell everyone what kind of meat you were looting before, let me tell you now."

"That's human flesh."

"Recently, there have been many incidents of monsters eating people in the city. You only pay attention to how many people are eaten by monsters, but no one pays attention to how many people are missing."

"I don't know why these monsters sell meat in exchange for money, but since they do this, it means that the money must be useful to them."

"It's you stupid people who actually robbed human flesh, thinking that human flesh is more delicious."

"I used to hate those monsters that eat people, especially those monsters that enter towns and eat people. As long as I encounter such monsters, I will never spare their lives. But today I have a profound realization that...

There are things scarier than monsters..."

"That's you, cannibals of human flesh."
