Yellow Spring Taboo

Chapter 117 People Eat People

Maybe it's because of my yin and veins, I seem to have an innate sixth sense in my body, but this sixth sense is very subtle, and it's an indescribable feeling.

Seeing the scene where Bai Rushuang was busy packing up the old lady's things, I patted my forehead hard, thinking maybe I was thinking too much.

So I also walked over to help the old woman pack up.

Soon we finished packing, and then the old woman pedaled the tricycle and walked towards a lane not far away, while Bai Rushuang and I drove behind her.

Soon, we came to a relatively old building area. This area is one of the few undeveloped areas in the city, which is equivalent to a slum area here. Most of the people who live here are those who came to the city. Working migrant workers.

When we drove the car through the alley, we couldn't go any further, so the two of us had to park the car aside.

The road ahead started to become muddy, and it happened to be an uphill slope. The old lady pedaled her tricycle with difficulty, and Bai Rushuang and I hurried forward to help.

When we came to the old lady's house, she looked very tired, and she suffered from asthma, and she was panting heavily at this time, as if she would lose her breath at any time.

Seeing her like this, I felt a little uncomfortable, and said, mother-in-law, have you been here all these years?where is your family.

After hearing this, the old woman sighed and said that she was dead. She died of starvation during the great famine that year.

Speaking of this, a trace of sadness appeared on the old woman's face, as if she had thought of many sad things.

I didn't ask any more questions, knowing that she was a poor person, so I moved the contents of the car into the house with the old lady. The old-fashioned electric lights are still too dark.

After entering, the old lady started to get busy. She asked us to sit here for a while, and she went to the kitchen to make soup and rice rolls.

Sitting on the Eight Immortals table in this room, I always feel an indescribable discomfort all over my body, and when I look around, I always feel a little creepy.

As the saying goes, you must not have the heart of harming others, and you must not have the heart of preventing others. I subconsciously opened my yin and yang eyes and scanned the surrounding area, but I didn't find anything wrong. I think I was thinking too much. It may be that I have experienced too many weird and bizarre things during these times, which made my nerves become a little nervous.

Soon, there was a tangy aroma from the kitchen, which made people feel unbearably hungry in their stomachs, and Bai Rushuang gulped down his saliva.

About ten minutes later, the old woman came out of the kitchen with two big bowls of rice rolls. Bai Rushuang was still the same as usual, and started eating.

Seeing how happy we were eating, the old lady stood aside and looked at us with a smile, saying girl, eat slowly, don't burn it, you come to my mother-in-law's house today, you can eat as much as you want, just enough.

Bai Rushuang was very happy when she heard that, and said that you are so kind, mother-in-law.

The old woman continued to smile, and said as if she was remembering something: "Your generation is really good, you know our generation can't eat such good food!"

I also know that, over 40 years ago, there was a time when it was very dark.

The old lady said that at that time, our country encountered an unprecedented famine, and many people died of starvation. Even if you were walking on the road, you could see people dying of starvation everywhere.

And the old woman's family consisted of seven people, except for her, all others were starved to death at that time.

Speaking of this, a trace of sadness appeared in the old woman's eyes, and then she walked towards the kitchen while telling us about the events of that era.

Many people may have heard of the extent of the famine in that era. Let alone rice, even the wild vegetables and tree roots on the mountain were dug up and eaten by people.

I froze for a moment, and said mother-in-law, I heard from my grandpa, did people still eat yellow mud in those days, put the yellow mud on a hot pan and fry it, and sprinkle a few salt on it when it was cooked, it tasted like eating Like pancakes, you can satisfy your hunger.

At this time, the old woman had already returned to the kitchen, and while she was boiling the soup pot in the kitchen, she said, "Yes, your grandpa is right. Many people ate the yellow mud at that time, but it is good when you eat it." Eat it, but after eating it, there will be problems, the yellow mud cannot be digested in the stomach, so it cannot be pulled out from the stomach, many people eat this yellow mud and are stuffed to death!"

Hearing what the old lady said, I immediately felt a little creepy, saying that it is not easy for a grandmother to survive from that era.

The old lady sighed and said it was not easy, but young man, you know that the most terrifying thing in those days was not eating yellow mud, but eating another kind of food, do you want to know what it is?

I ate a few mouthfuls of rice rolls in the bowl, and said I don’t know, what my grandpa told me was to eat yellow mud, I don’t know what other things you mentioned, mother-in-law.

"Corpse!"

As soon as my mother-in-law said this, I almost spit out a mouthful of rice rolls. I thought I had heard it wrong, so I asked again to confirm: "Grandma, what do you say you eat?"

There was a sudden silence in the kitchen, and then the mother-in-law's voice came again: "Corpse, dead body! Hehehe."

A burst of weird laughter came out of the kitchen suddenly, and I felt my scalp go numb, while the old lady in the kitchen was still laughing and said: "Young man, don't be surprised, in those days, people died It's also meat. When the man was extremely hungry, he could really do anything. Have you never heard of it? In ancient times, some people exchanged their children with others in order to satisfy their hunger, and then cooked them What do you mean by eating?"

The more I heard it, the more I felt something was wrong, so I hurriedly said, mother-in-law, please stop talking, we eat rice rolls, it sounds very uncomfortable.

But my mother-in-law ignored me, saying that there was a great famine, there was no rain for several months, people died on the side of the road, and it rotted within a few days, such meat would be poisoned soon after eating, so if you want to eat Humans have to carry the body back as early as possible, preferably on the first day after death, and slaughter it. Then cut the meat into pieces, some are salted, and some are hung on iron hooks. Taiwan smoked, so that these meats will not rot, and the taste is very good when eaten.

Of course, this is not the best way. The best human flesh is definitely not dead human flesh, but living human flesh. When you are wandering on the road, if you meet those hungry and dying people, follow them with a knife. When they are about to starve to death, stab them in the back of the neck, so that their meat will be better and the food will be more delicious.

Hearing this, I just feel so stuffy in my heart, although the smell of the soup base is still coming from the kitchen, but when I smell this smell again at this time, I feel so disgusting.

I pressed Bai Rushuang who was still eating, and signaled her to stop quickly.

Bai Rushuang is like this, an out-and-out foodie, as long as he is eating something, except for taste, his other five senses are completely closed, and he didn't even hear the conversation I had with that old woman just now.

She looked at me angrily and said Muyu what are you doing.

"Don't eat it!" I panicked, not sure what the old woman meant by her words.

So I stood up immediately, and then walked towards the kitchen cautiously. The old lady was still cooking the soup over there, and kept telling me how to make this human meat delicious. After hearing her say that it was special When using human flesh to make soup and large intestines to make rice rolls would be more delicious, the hairs all over my body stood on end.

At this time, I had already reached the door of the kitchen, and when I saw the scene in front of me, my entire scalp exploded.

In the dark kitchen, there is a rope hanging from the beam, and there are many pieces of meat hanging on the rope. You can’t see anything at first glance, but if you look closely, you will find that there are people among the pieces of meat. arms and thighs.

This is not the scariest thing, the scariest thing is that on the top of the platform, there are three sallow human heads hanging from the smoke, swinging back and forth under the wind!
