Chapter 172 Testing
Although Gu Zhou was on high alert, he tried his best to conceal his inner uneasiness. But who was Xie Fang? He grew up in a dark camp and had received countless trainings. How could he not see it?
He was secretly delighted, thinking that maybe he was the breakthrough point. If all went well, it would appear that he and his master would be able to successfully leave this place in a few days.
Shen Wu didn't know whether the message she gave Gu Zhou by eye contact, telling him to follow her and feel more at ease, was conveyed, but he seemed to have stopped thinking about it after leaving that place.
She knew that this person was coming for them on purpose, and must have a purpose, but she couldn't see how their dark and thin looks could bring any benefit to others.
Is it going to be sold?
Shen Wu quickly cursed himself in his heart for having such a wild imagination. He started to scare himself before he had figured out the whole thing.
She was afraid that Gu Zhou would be scared, and because this was her own initiative, she kept pulling his sleeve, trying to give him some comfort and make up for her own mistake.
Looking at the two people in front of him who were so friendly and respectful to each other, Xie Fang couldn't help but sneer in his heart. He didn't know whether these people were pretending or really sent two kids with so many loopholes to get information. Although the water here was muddy, how could his master be as stupid as the rumors outside said.
Shen Wu took people to the department store. She didn't know why this family only bought some fish, meat and vegetables but not oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and the like. Maybe they did it on purpose to find an opportunity to separate them and defeat them one by one, or maybe they wanted to use this opportunity to test her. But it couldn't be that this person was a fool and didn't know that cooking required essential items such as oil, salt, sauce and vinegar.
Since someone was paying, she just bought some. After all, she was invited to cook, and she could take this opportunity to try the flavors of these spices that looked very different.
There was a batch of spices in the department store that looked very unique and strange, but tasted very similar to what she used in modern cooking. However, due to their high prices, she had never dared to buy them, so she took this opportunity to buy some and try them out.
After finding out that they were spices that could be used for cooking, Shen Wu bought some of each. The smell seemed like a mixed aroma, like a mixture of star anise and bay leaves, but because they had been processed artificially, she couldn't identify them and could only rely on tasting.
She was in the department store, buying lard, salt, sauce and vinegar, and she wished she could hide in there and never come out.
Xie Fang was very energetic at first, staring at her every step, afraid that he would miss her sending out information or someone contacting him if he blinked.
That's right, Xie Fang thought so. Since she really dared to bring him here, it was very likely that this place was a hidden contact point, or there were her accomplices among the people who came to buy. After all, the two of them were too young and had not even learned the most basic skills taught in the dark camp. It was very likely that someone was controlling them from behind.
But as she bought this and that, Xie Fang didn't feel that she was conveying any message. The only strange thing was that she wanted to sing about that spice and buy some to take back.
He didn't notice any strange behavior from her during the whole process. Xie Fang didn't want to let go of this abnormality, so he quickly pretended to be stunned and followed her to pay.
Gu Zhou maintained his tense body until he entered the department store. After watching her walk around and buy a bunch of things, he felt more confused than nervous.
Could it be that she really needs to cook well?
Gu Zhou was thinking of finding an opportunity to run away, and Shen Wu was thinking the same thing, but she was greedier and more daring, and planned to take the money and run away after completing this deal.
Anyway, as long as I make the food unpalatable, he won't come to me anymore, then there will be no problem in the future. If I'm afraid of him blocking me, the worst that can happen is that I won't set up the stall until next year. The money I earned before will be enough to live on for a while.
