Chapter 26 A Pot of Meat (Follow-up! Follow-up!)

When the mother and son left home this morning, Wei Zhengdong, who was worried, pulled Wei An aside and whispered to him: "Your mother was actually quite courageous when she was young, but she started to be afraid after giving birth to you.

I'm afraid of this and that. Now that she's older, you have to protect her!"

Wei An recalled his father's words in his mind, and when he saw Wen Qiong's transformation, he suddenly felt as if he had just met his mother for the first time in his life.

As soon as he said the word "take", Wen Qiong dragged herself and moved quietly to the front of the pork shop. Using Wei An's body to block other people's sight, she reached out and grabbed the meat cleaver.

However, the sharp edge of the meat cleaver was stuck on the chopping board. Wen Qiong was weak and couldn't pull it up after pulling it.

"Son, I can't lift it," she said softly.

The two quickly changed positions, Wen Qiong was responsible for blocking the view, and Wei An reached out and grabbed the handle of the meat cleaver. Originally, he wanted to pull hard, but unexpectedly he lifted it up with a slight movement.

At the same time, Wei An stared at the handle of the knife intently for several seconds without any reaction.

According to the Bureau, if this item is a prop in Kaidan, after you look at the item for a few seconds, a prompt will appear above it, telling you how many energy points you can exchange to get it.

But if you look at the meat cleaver for a while and there is no reaction, it means that it cannot be exchanged and is not a prop.

In other words, it is impossible to use this thing to protect yourself from ghost stories.

Wei An put down the meat chopping knife, looked at the various knives displayed in other butcher shops, and whispered to Wen Qiong: "Mom, this knife can't be used. Let's take a look at the other butcher shops when we have the opportunity."

The knife, don’t go there for now.”

While the mother and son were testing the meat cleaver, Jian Hui said to the people present: "This strange story will keep us alive for 24 hours. Everyone must be careful and guard against it. In the next 24 hours, we may encounter various fatal situations."

It’s dangerous. Also, don’t try to leave this market, you will definitely die if you go out!”

"How...how do you know so much?" Hao Jiannan, a bald man, asked in surprise.

Jian Hui said: "Because I have experienced it."

The others were stunned. They didn't expect that the participant who came after him was actually a "veteran" who had experience in ghost stories. Many people immediately looked happy and moved closer to Jian Hui unconsciously.

At this time, Jian Hui looked at Wei An and saw that Wei An was also looking at him.

At first, Meng Yibo told Wei An that he was the only investigator in the Zhoucheng Administration Bureau. Jian Hui also saw Wei An's photo from Meng Yibo and knew that he had experienced two strange stories.

"Being able to enter a strange story that didn't originally belong to him should have activated his profession." Jian Hui secretly speculated.

Now this is a C-level weird story. It is definitely better to have someone with outstanding ability to help than to fight alone.

Jian Hui's profession is "Hunter", and his current skill is "Tracing", which allows him to quickly trace a target after obtaining certain information.

He waved to Wei An.

Wei An walked up to Jian Hui with his mother, smiled and said, "Hello."

Wei An did not reveal Jian Hui's identity, and Jian Hui naturally would not reveal his background.

Jian Hui put his head close to Wei An's ear and lowered his voice: "This ghost story is of a very high level. To be honest, I haven't dealt with it before. We'd better act together later."

"Okay." Wei An agreed immediately.

"Have you ever obtained any props?" Jian Hui asked.

"Yes." Wei An didn't hide it.

"Very good, make good use of your props." Jian Hui said: "The raw meat area should be the most dangerous at the moment. Let's find a place to hide first and master the rules of this strange story as quickly as possible."

This is his idea. Currently, there are some unknown and extremely terrifying dangerous factors hidden in this market, especially the raw meat area where murders have occurred. Therefore, it is best to find a safe place first, and then learn about this strange story as soon as possible.

Make a plan.

After all, they had already experienced two strange stories, Wei An also had this idea, and the two of them immediately turned their heads and looked around.

At this time, a 24-hour countdown appeared in the upper right corner of everyone's eyes. Everyone was gathered together, looking a little overwhelmed.

These first-time participants only learned some basic knowledge about ghost stories at the Bureau, and how to cooperate with each other, because even the Bureau did not know the form and content of the upcoming ghost stories, so they had no idea.

Give more specific guidance.

The food market we are currently in is called "Zhaolukou Food Market" in the ghost story. Regardless of the layout or area, it is different from the Sanchakou Food Market in the real world.

There is no light inside, and it seems to be in a power outage. Although it is not dark outside, the sky is hazy, making the market extremely dark, making it difficult to see clearly from a little further away.

However, the distribution of the vegetable market is the same as that of ordinary vegetable markets. There are fruit and vegetable area, raw meat area, aquatic products area, live poultry area, comprehensive area, etc. The raw meat area can be seen at a glance, with a total of 12 stalls.

Judging from the information that originally reminded Wen Qiong and other participants to enter the ghost story, the 11th raw meat stall may be the one where the murder occurred.

Wei An and Jian Hui looked at the 11th stall at the same time. At this moment, they suddenly noticed that hot white gas was coming out of that place.

The heat was very unusual. There was no movement around at all just now. When someone observed the stall, the heat started to rise, as if something had been cooking there.

"Don't get separated, everyone," Jian Hui said to the others.

Then he and Wei An were in front, Wen Qiong followed behind Wei An, and the others followed Jian Hui closely on the other side.

After all, Jian Hui is a person who has experienced strange stories, and he is already a life-saving straw in the eyes of these people.

The bald man Hao Jiannan was the closest, almost reaching out to pull the hem of Jian Hui's clothes. The others followed, while the woman Qiao Rongrong wanted to be closer to Wen Qiong. Perhaps for psychological reasons, the two women would instinctively hug each other.

.

Before everyone got close to the 11th stall, a smell of meaty aroma wafted over. After smelling it, their mouths were filled with saliva, and both Wei An and Jian Hui couldn't help but swallow their saliva.

"It smells so good!" Hao Jiannan couldn't help but said, he had already swallowed several mouthfuls of saliva.

Others opened their eyes wide and stood on tiptoes to look in the direction of the aroma. They saw a large aluminum pot standing next to stall No. 11 without a lid. Some kind of meat was being cooked in the pot, and the soup was boiling.

The aroma is tangy.

"Can't pass!"

Wei An and Jian Hui had this idea at the same time.

The two looked at each other and Jian Hui said to the others: "It's still early for the countdown to end. Let's find a place to wait. Don't get separated and follow me."

After saying this, everyone passed by stall No. 11. Although they looked back from time to time, they quickly left the raw meat area and came to the live poultry area.

Wei An's nose was still filled with the aroma from the pot of meat just now, and he heard Wen Qiong's stomach growl twice behind him.

Wen Qiong touched her belly and said with some surprise: "I obviously ate when I came here just now, but now I feel so hungry. The meat in the pot just now was so fragrant. There are probably more than thirteen kinds of condiments in the pot."

Wei An swallowed his saliva again, nodded, and then said: "The meat in the pot may not be animal meat."

At this moment, Jian Hui suddenly stopped and looked slightly surprised.

Wei An followed his gaze and saw that there was not a single live bird in the entire live poultry area. Whether it was chickens, ducks, geese, etc., they were all dead in the cages. There was a stench that was completely opposite to the smell of meat just now.
