Chapter 368: Borrowing Talisman
Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Song Jiang insisted on his own point of view, "These are just written on that piece of silk... Just as you said, what if this was written by the ancients on purpose for future generations? After all, whether the nine orifices were sealed with iron juice can only know after asking Sheng Ying himself."
"If you want to ask, go and ask!" Meng Zhe said angrily.
Song Jiang smiled awkwardly, "I'm not familiar with her... Why do you ask? Besides, I'm just talking about the matter."
The two of them did not find any valuable clues during this trip. Song Jiang just thought that the person who buried Sheng Ying should have affection for her. As for whether it was the one who caused her to such a situation, he couldn't say it for a while...
After returning to the car, Meng Zhe complained a little, "I think you are so full that you have nothing to do. You have no clues to struggle all night... Isn't it good to sleep well at home?"
Song Jiang knew in his heart that Meng Zhe should be hungry, so he looked at the sky outside the window and said, "It's almost dawn later. I know that the buns in a nearby breakfast restaurant are awesome. Why don't we eat them and go back to take a break?!"
As expected, Meng Zhe's face immediately looked a little better as soon as these words came out.
Unfortunately, the two of them came a little too early. The buns were not out of the pot yet. Song Jiang thought Meng Zhe would leave impatiently, but he didn't expect that he pulled a chair next to him and sat down and said, "Then wait a moment..."
Song Jiang smiled and shook his head as soon as he saw it. He said that although Meng Zhe was a little moody, he could easily understand the other person's temperament after getting along for a long time. In some things that ordinary people think should be persisted in, Meng Zhe is always free and easy, but instead he is always stubborn about what breakfast to eat and how to eat such small things.
Logically speaking, Song Jiang and the others were the earliest guests, so the first bun was naturally given to them. Unexpectedly, the owner of this breakfast shop placed the first bun that had just been cooked on a table in the corner...
Seeing Song Jiang and Meng Zhe look surprised, the boss quickly explained with a smile, "Sorry, you two, your buns will come soon... The shop has an unwritten rule since my father's generation, that is, the first basket of buns that have just been cooked must be given to that table first, and no one can eat them. Generally, customers who come to the shop know."
Song Jiang was puzzled and said, "Is there any particularity? Or is there any taboo?"
The boss smiled and said, "Actually, there is nothing special about it. It's just the rules passed down from my dad. I don't want to break them... But I have heard him talk about the specific reasons. He said that when he first opened the store, the bowls and bowls in the store would always be broken for no reason, and occasionally the kitchen would be watered! The older generation is superstitious and thinks that something unclean has entered the store, so they put the first basket of buns that got up early in the morning in the corner. It's strange. Since the basket of buns was released every morning, no strange things have happened in the store, and they can be smooth every day."
After the boss finished speaking, he brought a basket of buns that had just been out of the pot and went to do his job. But just as Song Jiang and Meng Zhe were about to start eating, they suddenly saw a few jackal-like guys sneaking in from the door, then went straight to the table in the corner, grabbed the buns on the table and stuffed them into their mouths... The food was so ugly, just like a starving ghost who hadn't eaten enough for many years.
When the three words "starved ghost" popped up from Song Jiang's mind, he couldn't help but have a cold war all over his body. Meng Zhe, who was beside him, said lightly, "It's just a few starved ghosts... It's like scaring you."
After hearing this, Song Jiang said in surprise, "Are you really a starving ghost?"
Meng Zhe nodded and said, "This breakfast shop is just open next to the intersection. It is the place where the most wandering souls appear. In addition, he sells food, so naturally the starving ghosts are indispensable... It's okay, a little ghost of this level will leave by himself when he eats his fill and will not be a monster."
Unexpectedly, as the two of them were talking, a pale boy walked into the store. He first asked the boss for a basket of buns, but as soon as he sat down, he looked at the table in the corner with horror. It was obvious that he could also see the starving ghosts...
When Song Jiang saw this, he whispered to Meng Zhe, "That child seems to be able to see it too... Are you sure those weird guys are ghosts?"
After hearing this, Meng Zhe looked at the boy carefully for a few seconds, and then said in a deep voice, "This kid Yin Tang is dark, with a dead look on his face, and he can still see ghosts... It seems that he is not far from death."
Song Jiang said in surprise as soon as he heard this, "Really and false?! This child looks like he is only sixteen or seventeen..."
Meng Zhe snorted coldly, "Have you heard of no old or young on the road to the underworld? Besides, this kid is trying to die... Look at what is on his back?"
When Song Jiang heard this, he looked at the boy's back and found that there was a yellow paper talisman. So he was surprised, "Why is there a talisman sticking on his back? Can't his family see it?"
Meng Zhe nodded and said, "Of course I can't see it, because it's Zhang's life-learning talisman. Ordinary people have never heard of it, let alone seeing it... This kid should have been fooled by someone to lend his life."
"Then should we help him..." Song Jiang asked tentatively.
Unexpectedly, Meng Zhe sank his face and said, "Why should he help him? He can be caught and shows that he is greedy... After taking things that shouldn't be taken, everyone must be responsible for what he has done. Maybe in your opinion, he just made a small mistake, but it is not worth it to bear the price of losing his life because of it. But this is true in life. Only by keeping one's heart at critical moments can one not be infected by these messy things."
"Or why I'll ask first...what if he was framed?" Song Jiang said with a little undeadly.
Meng Zhe said helplessly, "No wonder Deng Kai and others call you Tangxin Chocolate in private? You can't be too kind..."
Song Jiang smiled and said, "I have such a temperament, otherwise how could I meet you?"
When Meng Zhe heard that, he was also right. If Song Jiang hadn't meddled with other people's business, he had to overestimate his ability to save the suicide "Meng Zhe", he would have been sleeping in the divine stone. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but shake his head and said, "It's such a bad fate..."
Finally, Meng Zhe finally agreed to understand the cause and effect of the matter first. If this kid is really innocent, he could consider helping him save his life.
After getting Meng Zhe's approval, Song Jiang walked to the boy's table with a bun and sat directly opposite him...
