Chapter 159 Nothing Seen
'Speaking?'
Lime's eyelids twitched with fear.
Ever since she obtained this book, the Tome of Flesh and Blood has been in a dormant state, or more accurately, a dead object, a perfectly normal book.
She had also read this Codex of Flesh and Blood before, but the content was too filthy and disgusting, and it could even give birth to hybrid monsters in a strange way.
This is also why disgusting beings like Spider-Man are created, whose madness is simply unimaginable.
“I’m full…”
Just as Shime was thinking, the blood-red eyeballs of the Flesh and Blood Demonic Book began to move, and several muscle-like tentacles emerged from the surface of the book cover and extended upwards.
He looked like a child who wanted to hold his mother's hand.
"Behave yourself"
Lime stepped on it mercilessly, causing the Flesh and Blood Codex, which was originally eager to try, to immediately calm down and quickly retract its tentacles.
"You're so obedient to me? Why on earth is that..."
Although Mambo told her that the other party could be combined with any weapon, she did not have such a crazy idea.
As long as you use this book, you must rely on flesh and blood to satisfy it. Not ordinary beef and mutton, but all kinds of human flesh and internal organs.
Listening to the slight movement of the books under his feet, Shi Hui didn't understand what the other party wanted to express. There were few places with light around.
"Tsk, I was killing so hard just now that I kicked over the candlesticks and everything else and smashed them. I might as well just use magic..."
With the help of the firelight and lime, the obedient magic book was finally picked up. After being kicked hard just now, it seemed to have become much more obedient and understood something.
This time I'll just quietly be a book.
"Much better..." Shime smiled and put it into his backpack, then walked up the stairs to the second floor of the Bee Tavern.
When we were slaughtering that group of drunkards just now, there was no noise from above, and no one even came down to investigate.
This situation is so strange that it makes people suspicious.
"Could it be that I killed them too quickly? They died before they could even finish their screams, so Annie and the others upstairs didn't hear them..."
Shihui walked upstairs while comforting himself. In fact, the sound of the tables and chairs falling was loud enough that anyone upstairs who was not deaf could hear it clearly.
The old wooden stairs creaked every time someone stepped on them, adding a touch of eeriness to the otherwise silent tavern.
Shihui came to the thick wooden door, knocked three times, neither light nor heavy, and said, "It's me, Hilde!"
Even though he had been reborn as a beautiful woman for a long time, his rude character as a man had not completely changed, and his temper was always the same.
If you don’t accept it, fight. If you can’t beat him, run away!
Inside the house: "..."
Seeing that no one in the room responded to him, Shi Hui simply pushed the door open.
Fortunately, this wooden door was not locked from the inside and was easily pushed open.
"oh?!"
What caught Shihui's eye was the warm candlelight in the room and the various delicious dishes placed on the round table. Although the creatures looked strange, such as a beetle with ten legs or a strange chicken with three heads, they looked pretty good.
Apart from them were four guests and a chef huddled in the corner. The two men and two women were dressed slightly better than the poor people. At least their clothes had no holes or worn-out shoes, and even their hair and faces showed few signs of being tarnished by the wind and sun.
They are worth much more than those guys with fleas on their bodies.
However, the other chef looked similar to Horod, with a not-too-long white beard, a simple blue shirt and black pants, and a chef's apron, and the typical big nose, blue eyes, and cheekbones.
Shishi tilted his head to the side, like a proud swan, as if mocking them and examining them at the same time.
"Well……"
These five people could only act like poultry with their necks strangled, not even daring to make a sound, and just let the other party do whatever they wanted.
Even though they didn't go down, they could still hear the miserable screams and sounds of fighting below clearly.
The sound of the sharp blade tearing flesh and the screams of the victims who had not yet had time to utter, each of them irritated their nerves.
Especially when I opened the crack of the door just now and observed, the tragic situation on the first floor could not be described as hell on earth.
And the culprit of all this just stood there brazenly, looking at them like lambs to be slaughtered.
"Boring..."
Seeing that they only dared to curl up in the corner, Shi Hui didn't show much interest. He just pulled out a chair and sat down, tasting the delicious dishes on the table.
She scooped some green soup with a spoon and put it into her mouth to taste it carefully. Then she showed an expression of surprise and aftertaste, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised.
"Hmm~ The flavor is truly unique, like the fragrance of summer lotus flowers combined with spring nectar. The bitterness and sweetness balance each other out, yet it still has such a unique flavor. It's truly a delicious food..."
Lime's biggest hobby is not gold, silver, and treasures, but like Anne, she loves food and wants to try the exotic customs of different countries.
However, the food here is far inferior to that on Earth. It can only be regarded as a rare delicacy in this world. After all, few people can access it.
But her description was very detailed or elegant, which was perhaps the only thing that matched her appearance.
The chef, who had been hiding in the corner and trembling, suddenly brightened up when he heard the other party's satisfactory evaluation. His heart was filled with pride, and even the fear in his heart dissipated a lot.
He bravely stood up, and under the shocked gazes of the other four, he bowed respectfully before Shi Li and began to introduce himself:
"It's... because... it's made by adding Miloya tea powder and the juice of the flower wonder fruit and then... blending it."
The combination of several ingredients is the result of his lifelong experience and is by no means a copycat. This is also his specialty, otherwise he would not have been specially invited to the Bee Tavern to cook for these four people.
But the four people behind him were dumbfounded. "You're trying to get close to them, but what about us?"
Shihui nodded with satisfaction. For her, it didn't matter whether she ate more or less. Her hunger gradually decreased as her nightmares appeared more frequently.
She didn't know whether this was good or bad, but at least she could save more food for Annie and the others.
Shime picked up the white handkerchief on the table and gently wiped his thin lips.
"It tastes great, but unfortunately, I'm always full after just a few bites. Otherwise, I really hope you could be my personal chef..."
"I don't deserve it!" The chef's voice was a little louder, and he was obviously a little frightened and panicked, but he hurriedly explained: "I am not very knowledgeable and I am afraid I can't satisfy your appetite. As for your feeling full after just a few bites... I have had customers experience this before. It seems to be something called anorexia. People with this condition often feel disgusted by food and feel full after just a few bites.
Or, after tasting certain foods, they feel full immediately, or even vomit. It is very difficult to treat them. I am afraid that this is caused by inner demons or emotional knots. "
"Inner demons...heart knots." Shihui murmured softly.
Speaking of these two things, she now has a lot of them, but it can also be said that it doesn't matter if there are too many fleas. After all, the weirdos, perverts, and hatred she encountered during this journey have probably already exceeded the limit.
But at this moment, the air around them dropped rapidly, and the five people felt a chill on their necks.
Shime tapped the tabletop lightly with his fingers, propped up his chin with his left hand, looked at them and asked, "I don't like killing people for no reason, and besides, I really enjoyed this meal, so what did you see tonight?"
The five people who were originally feeling very uneasy immediately understood what was going on after hearing this.
"I didn't see anything!"
"I didn't see it! I didn't see it!"
"We just came here to have a simple meal..."
"No..." Shihui interrupted a few people and continued in response to their puzzled gazes: "You saw the group of bandits from Mountain Range No. 6 coming to rob and kill, which led to the tragic situation in the Bee Tavern!"
"Do you understand?"
"Yeah, yeah!" The five of them nodded rapidly without any hesitation.
Regarding this act of throwing dirty water, Shihui just wanted to use it to test the relationship between the authorities and the gang of criminals. Is it as she imagined, or is it beyond her imagination?
"Crash!"
Dozens of gold coins fell on the table with a pleasant clinking sound, and the five people who saw it in the firelight almost popped their eyes out.
'Rich and inhumane!'
At the same time, Shihui couldn't help but ask questions in his heart.
"If Anne isn't at the Bee Tavern, then where else could she be..."
Now the anger in Shihui's heart has reached a critical point. If she can't find Annie and the others, she will definitely kill everyone in this half of the town.
