Infinite Puzzle City

Chapter 150 It smells so good
It was a woman's head.

The woman's body had been soaked in the wine jar for an unknown period of time, but it had not rotted.

The skin even seems to still maintain its excellent elasticity, and even maintains a subtle burgundy color.

Xiao Ran stared at the woman for a long time, put down the wine spoon in his hand, reached out to grab the woman's head, and tried to lift it up.

Very heavy.

It was as heavy as a stone.

The woman just shook her body slightly and immediately sank into the wine jar.

Seeing this, Xiao Ran let go of his hand: "Sorry, I disturbed you."

As he said this, he closed the wine jar again.

"This woman should not be a tenant, otherwise I would have given a hint."

"Since they are not tenants...then...they are commodities."

This place used to be a winery, and women were kept there. Although it sounds creepy, if you think about it carefully, it should be classified as a commodity.

As for the other two wine jars, Xiao Ran thought about it again and again, but in the end he did not open them.

Not only did he not open it, he also moved some debris from the side and pressed it on top of the wine jar.

Is this useful?
I guess it's of no use. These are the dregs of the Maotai liquor that have been soaked in there for who knows how many years. If it still had consciousness, it would have jumped out long ago. I guess it can't be suppressed with just this little bit of stuff.

But it is better than having nothing, even if it is just for psychological comfort.

At this time, Shangniao Lingzi had almost finished cleaning the living room upstairs.

Xiao Ran took out all the furniture that Jiucai had donated.

Sofas, tables, wine cabinets, and desk cabinets. It can be seen that when Jiucai bought these furniture, he was planning on living with them. These things are all very new. After they were placed in the living room, the originally empty living room immediately had a bit of the feel of home.

I also hung up the TV. If there is no electricity, it can be used as a mirror.

After packing up these things, Xiao Ran took out a lot of snacks and placed them on the table, and shouted to the back: "The snacks are on the table, come and eat whatever you want."

This sentence was shouted to the Bone Spirit Ghost. Xiao Ran didn't hear any response, but he should have heard it.

Go back to the room and lock the door.

I took out a small notebook and started writing on the table. As the saying goes, a good memory is not as good as a bad pen. Although I have a photographic memory, the more I write down, the more confused I sometimes get.
The first thing to be affected is the issue of leveling up yourself.

1: Breakthrough in master-level suturing skills, and lack of an E-level spell rune [Craftsman].

"You can consider exchanging the curse pattern with the Changchun card in your hand, so the problem of the curse pattern has been solved, so the only thing left is the suturing technique."

2: [Evil-Suppressing Order] has been upgraded, and there are three D-level corpses, a tiger, a spirit snake, and the one I bought lying in the coffin.

"In order to achieve an A-level corpse score, we still need to break through the master-level suturing technique."

3: Go home, move over the things left by grandpa, and start a business.

"In this way, all corpses can be sewn here in the future. However, the basement also needs to be renovated, and a lot of materials need to be purchased, such as nails, lighting, and wire..."

4: Bring back more snacks, the bone spirit ghost is quite important.

After closing the notebook, Xiao Ran sat on the chair, squinting his eyes and going through the whole thing from beginning to end. After making sure there was nothing missing, he silently said in his heart: "Return!!"

It was Xiao Ran’s first time returning to his own business, and he felt a little nervous and expectant.

Immediately afterwards, his body suddenly sank, as if someone had pulled him hard. Immediately afterwards, his vision became blurry, and his body seemed to be quickly dragged out of the room. When Xiao Ran came to his senses the next second, he found that he was already standing on the wide road.

The cool night breeze blows on my cheeks, bringing a little bit of moisture.

"It's raining?"

Xiao Ran reached out his hand to wipe it, and then he heard the sound of a sprinkler truck coming from the viaduct above his head. He quickly stepped back a few steps, hid under the viaduct, and waited for the sprinkler truck to pass by.

The original road control had ended long ago, and there were cars coming and going on the road. Xiao Ran actually wanted to scan a shared bicycle to go back.

Unfortunately, this place is quite far from my home, but there is a subway nearby that can take me directly to my home, and it only takes more than ten minutes at most.

However, Xiao Ran still chose to take a taxi.

After hailing a taxi, Xiao Ran sat in the back seat as usual and opened the window.

The driver didn't care at first, but after smelling the scent on Xiao Ran, he looked back at Xiao Ran from time to time.

There was disgust and a bit of unbearable feeling in his eyes.

Fortunately, Xiao Ran was not surprised by such a look, and calmly took out three hundred yuan and put it in front of the car: "Sorry, sir, the remaining money will be used to wash your car." The driver looked at the three hundred yuan Xiao Ran put on the cup holder, was stunned for a moment, and turned back to look at Xiao Ran: "Are you from the funeral home?"

"No, I own a shop that accepts corpses."

After hearing Xiao Ran's explanation, the driver threw the money to Xiao Ran: "Do you have a girlfriend?"

"what??"

Xiao Ran was stunned for a moment, and his mind involuntarily thought of the scene where the Yinshan Taoist asked him to become his disciple. The corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily.

"Don't think too much. I'm not that person. I have a niece at home who is very pretty."

The driver took out a business card and handed it to Xiao Ran. "She also works as a MC in a funeral home. She also has this smell on her body. Once you get it on her, you can't wash it off. She's almost 30 and still not married. The guy her family introduced to her couldn't stand it and covered his mouth and left as soon as he sat down. Her family is disgusted."

When the driver said this, Xiao Ran knew what he meant, so he could only wave his hand: "Master, I haven't thought about this yet."

"Oh, what's there to consider? My niece is very pretty. My family has already said that they don't want any dowry. They will give us a car after we get married..."

The driver kept talking all the way until he dropped Xiao Ran off at her doorstep. He even asked for Xiao Ran's contact information, telling her that if she couldn't get a taxi in the future, she could just call him.

To be honest, Xiao Ran was actually a little moved by the driver's enthusiasm.

After all, this is the first time that I can chat so much with the driver while riding in a car.

Of course, although he was touched, Xiao Ran didn't want to have multiple girlfriends for no reason.

It’s not that I haven’t thought about it, it’s just… the timing is not right.

If I had encountered this situation before I came into contact with the mystery city, I would not have refused it.

It would be nice to find a young lady who works as an undertaker at a funeral home as your wife, even if she is older than you.

From now on, I will have a wife and children, and live a happy life.

But it’s no use now. Not to mention the dangers of the mystery city, I might become a missing person someday. Just the mess in my own backyard means I’m doomed to not be able to interact with ordinary people.

In the past, Xiao Ran could invite Uncle Li and others to the yard to drink tea, enjoy the cool air and rest, but now Xiao Ran is not allowed to enter. In addition to the change in their relationship, this reason is also true.

Watching the taxi gradually driving out of his sight, Xiao Ran felt for the first time that he seemed to be slowly becoming distant from this world.

After taking a look at the business card in his hand, Xiao Ran threw it on the ground.

I turned around and went back home, opened the shutter door and took a look, but I didn't see the white cat. I didn't know where this guy had gone.

But there's no need to worry about it. It's a wild cat. Its wounds have healed, and its belly is full. Who knows where it's going to be.

Before Xiao Ran sat down.

Then I heard Wu Man's teasing voice coming from outside the door: "I saw from a distance that you dropped something, picked it up and took a look, oh, Deng Zixia, this is a little girl, who introduced you to a wife?"

Xiao Ran rolled his eyes: "You came at the right time."

"It's already noon, so I'm here to bring you food."

Wu Man glanced around as he spoke. Xiao Ran was about to say that the white cat was not at home and had gone out to play when he heard a "meow!" from the door. The white cat jumped back in from outside, landed on the counter, and licked its paws slowly.

Upon seeing this, Wu Man immediately smiled and took out a box of salmon meat balls that she had just made today and handed them over.

The white cat didn't even look at it and just licked its paws.

Xiao Ran was already taking out the food from the lunch box with ease.

Pickled mustard greens and pork chop noodles.

The golden meat steak is covered on the noodles, and there is a layer of pickled mustard greens in the bowl. The noodle soup is very clear, with a thin layer of oil floating on it, and chopped green onions and coriander are used as garnish.

The long and narrow round noodles are neatly arranged.

Although simple, it is still exquisite.

Xiao Ran was also hungry, so of course he wouldn't be polite when he saw this.

But just as he was about to pick up his chopsticks, Wu Man suddenly grabbed Xiao Ran's wrist.

Xiao Ran was startled, and saw Wu Man slowly lower his head, put Xiao Ran's hand in front of him, took a deep sniff, and his black and white eyes suddenly became intoxicated and blurred.

Xiao Ran got goosebumps all over his body. Seeing that this guy was about to move up his arm, he immediately put the end of the chopsticks on Wu Man's neck.

"go away!"

Wu Man's eyelids twitched slightly, and she reluctantly let go of Xiao Ran's arm. She took out a silk scarf from her arms and wiped the corners of her lips a few times, then glanced at Xiao Ran: "You smell so good..."
