Chapter 177
help each other.
When Li Xiaoxiao saw familiar faces in the team, it was Zhu Linghe and Wang Xiang, a trace of disgust flashed in her eyes.
In the underground base they huddled together in the same workshop. Zhu Linghe had troubled her many times. Li Xiaoxiao was lonely and liked to walk alone. Zhu Linghe took advantage of the large number of people and robbed her of food several times, causing her to almostStarving to death, she naturally hates this kind of murderer.
Zhu Linghe and Wang Xiang also saw her, and made a throat-slitting gesture full of malice.
Li Xiaoxiao squinted her eyes and waited for her, then turned and left, regardless of the sudden burst of laughter behind her, she picked up discarded steel bars, wooden fences, and broken cement along the roadside, and stuffed everything she saw into rattan bags, in fact, she had received it.In the system space, there is nothing unnecessary anyway, and they are all treasures to her.
She picked it up for a while, fearing that people would find it wrong, so she went around to another street. It would have been faster to enter the abandoned house to search, but she was worried that there would be mutant beasts inside, which would be unsafe, and she would rather be tired and slower outside.
She didn't let go of anything she could come across while keeping an eye on the system.
A day ago, Li Xiaoxiao came to the top floor of the base to clean the place closest to the ground. Suddenly, a white light flashed, her forehead was in great pain, and then the system appeared in her mind.
Since she didn't get it for a long time, she only figured out a simple way to use it. She knew that it was a hoarding system, and she could get diamonds by hoarding specified items and achieving achievements, and diamonds could be exchanged for blueprints of various materials.
The value of things like cement blocks and scrap steel bars is not high. Not only are the diamonds exchanged for less, but the amount required is also large. If it is not too conspicuous to take away the houses directly, she would like to search house by house.
She had been picking up garbage for more than half an hour, and there was a flicker in her peripheral vision. She clicked on the system, and it turned out to be a reminder to complete the achievement.
"Congratulations on collecting one hundred units of stones and unlocking the achievement 'Shi Lailei'"
Li Xiaoxiao glanced over and almost couldn't recognize the word stone.
She clicked to receive, and five diamonds were credited to her account. Then she opened the system mall and exchanged for a pound of bananas that she had been optimistic about for a long time. When passing by the foot of the mountain, she saw a banana tree on the top of the mountain from afar.Suspect.
As soon as the bananas were exchanged, the rich fruity fragrance permeated the air. She rubbed her nose, suppressed the desire in her heart, buried the bananas in the soil and waited for another half an hour before walking towards the exchange booth set up by Xingfu.
The exchange booth and the recruitment booth are next to each other, and there is a team of soldiers with guns in charge, so everyone is very law-abiding.
The recruiting place was overcrowded, but the exchange booth was completely deserted. When Li Xiaoxiao came over, he received the attention of everyone in the team next to him, and the eyes on him seemed to be real.
Brother Bing, who was exchanging booths, didn’t seem to have expected that someone would come to exchange booths shortly after he left the base, and he couldn’t help but reveal a bit of surprise in his tone: “What do you want to exchange?”
Li Xiaoxiao put the bananas on the table.
As soon as the overripe banana appeared, it attracted countless saliva, and those eyes became so hot that even Brother Bing's eyes stayed on the banana for a second. He took out the scale, recorded the weight, and took out anotherA palm-sized machine, aimed at a banana test.
"The radiation value is 10," Brother Bing looked up at Li Xiaoxiao, his surprise was undisguised this time, "Low pollution."
Others heard the words, subconsciously looking at this side, since the moon turned red one night ten years ago, the creatures exposed to the moonlight will be affected by the radiation, and will gradually mutate and distort. Once they reach a certain limit, they will completely become monsters.Lost his mind, only the killing instinct remained.
No one wants to be like this.
Li Xiaoxiao said, "What can I change?"
Brother Bing replied: "Steamed buns, there are only steamed buns, you can... change five."
Ten years after the catastrophe, the currency has already collapsed, and now food is currency, and no one will want food.
Li Xiaoxiao hugged her steamed bun, turned around and met two familiar people, Zhu Linghe and Wang Xiang were still here, compared to the mocking contempt of the two people at this moment, they looked as if they had been kicked by someoneMy dog stinks.
She had already walked over, but when she found the two people, she backed away and stared at them, which was also good, so as not to find them by herself.
Under her gaze, Zhu Linghe was very irritable, "Look at that..."
"I'm just looking at farts." Li Xiaoxiao replied, grabbing the steamed buns and eating them in big mouthfuls. After thinking about it, she compared the movement of cutting her throat to the other party.
The two of them were pissed off at first by her words, and then swallowed by her extravagant food. Of course Zhu Linghe knew that his behavior was embarrassing, but his stomach was empty, and it was difficult for him to be greedy for food. In the past ten yearsWho didn't eat the last meal and didn't eat the next meal, and everyone was so hungry that their eyes turned green.
If there were not soldiers with guns nearby, everyone would have jumped up and tore Li Xiaoxiao to pieces.
Unexpectedly, this was not over yet, Li Xiaoxiao even responded to her actions, Zhu Linghe felt his head explode, and wanted to pounce on Li Xiaoxiao and scratch her face, but WangShan held back.
Li Xiaoxiao knew that there were soldiers there, and the two of them didn't dare to do anything, without even raising their eyelids, she swallowed the last bite, and the remaining three steamed buns remained untouched, and one steamed bun was as big as a grown man's fist, she was hungry for a long timeI don't dare to eat too much, for fear of breaking myself.
Originally, it would be best to eat it tomorrow, but with so many people staring at her, taking away the steamed buns would bring her danger.
Li Xiaoxiao endured her distress, returned to the exchange booth, pushed the steamed buns in front of Brother Bing, leaned over and whispered, "Brother, does Xingfu plan to build a farm? I want to farm."
Brother Bing glanced at her and said nothing.
Li Xiaoxiao: "I'll tell you where I got the bananas."
Anyway, it's fake, and she doesn't feel bad when she tells others.
Li Xiaoxiao asked Li Bo and the others to pick fruits here, and called Haohao's three big dogs to drive out the chickens and ducks, so that Hao Hao could watch them move around, and don't get lost in the woods. These chickens have been locked up for too long, and their actions are stupidHe was in a daze, inflexible at all, looking around with his head and brain, and couldn't even dig the ground.
She didn't turn it off, and drove the cattle, sheep and pigs back to the sheep pen in several batches. Her family's osprey spread its wings and followed her. When any sheep or cattle were disobedient, they would swoop down and scare them back into the team., so it only took her two rounds to drive the animals back.
It’s just that the road is difficult to walk, and the grass and trees on the road are so dense that they almost cover the bluestone road. She uses the old method to systematically clean up the weeds with her backpack. The grass in the sheep pen is also full of grass, but it’s the wheat lady she sprinkled.Let the cattle and sheep eat this by themselves, and it will be eaten up in a few days, and they don't need to clean it up.
She cleaned up the large pieces of wood first, and then went to check the fruit forest. The giant kicked and damaged several of her fruit trees. In addition to the mutant ones, only the ones planted on the middle-level farmland were left intact.The biggest is the blueberry tree, only a small half is good.
Li Xiaoxiao sighed, but her distress was limited. As long as the intermediate farmland was there, she could plant as many fruit trees as she wanted. In addition, it rained during the Red Moon period, and the Red Moon provided enough radiant energy.The fruit trees were all ripe and full of fruit, and the branches were bent.
She casually picked the persimmons hanging in front of her eyes. They were already ripe and soft. She peeled off the skin and took a bite. It was so sweet that it was so delicious in her heart. There are so many persimmons hanging on the tree in strings like lanterns., Even the bigger wind can't blow it, how can finish eating too much, feel that still have to sell it to the patrol camp, don't know if they have time to collect it now.
When she returned to the house, she didn't meet any mutant creatures. It seemed that they were all attracted by the giant.
The beehives let the carnivorous bees move back to the big camphor tree by themselves. After a busy day, everyone hastily cleaned up the ruins of the wooden house, smoothed the broken stubble, and couldn't repair the broken floor. It didn't look like a miserable ruin.The way people live.
Although they kept talking about white rice yesterday, they didn't expect to find out today, after all, the shell hasn't come off yet, and...
Everyone carefully looked at Xiao Xiao, Mr. Chen hasn't come back yet, why should we wait for the other party to come back to eat together.
Chapter 149
Another week later, the influence of the red moon was already very low, and the patrol battalion also opened the shelter to let everyone go home.
Two nearby neighbors, the He family brothers and Wang Ersao, came to see her successively. Wang Ersao even took a simple and honest stranger on his arm, saying that he knew him from the Fangcang and planned to live together in the future, and invited her to his house for a meal.
Li Xiaoxiao looked at Wang Ersao's rosy cheeks, said congratulations, and agreed to have a meal. Now there is no such thing as a wedding. When a man and a woman are together, they just invite friends they know to dinner, even if they notify their relatives and friends.
But He Tian's condition is not good, his hands are hanging, and his face is sickly. Originally, the whole family lost a few familiar figures, and He Tian's eldest son also disappeared. She sighed in her heart,He Tian didn't mention this and she didn't say anything.
"Long time no see, Xiao Xiao."
Li Xiaoxiao: "Yes, thirty-five days more than a month."
He Tian was taken aback: "It's only been thirty-five days, I always feel like a year has passed."
Seeing his dim eyes, Li Xiaoxiao talked about something else: "The red moon is gone, and there will be more good days in the future. It will be the New Year's Eve soon, and there will be activities in the city, will you go?"
When He Tian heard her words, he felt much better: "I won't go, there are a lot of things at home, you have fun."
After he finished speaking, he led the whole family away, and Ru Ru worried, "Is Uncle He alright?"
Li Bo patted her head: "It's all right, he still has a whole family to worry about."
When Li Xiaoxiao straightened up from the farmland, Chen Mo also took care of all the moso bamboos, and spread the cut branches in the open space. After two days in the sun, the water evaporated and it was easier to burn to ashes.
It may rain later, the sky is overcast, there is no wind, and it is very stuffy without sunshine.
She tugged at the neckline, took out an apple from her backpack and threw it to Chen Mo. She ate it herself, and couldn't help speeding up as soon as she ate it. This apple is fresh and juicy, the flesh is crisp and not mushy, and the taste is sweet and not greasy.It's cool down the esophagus to the stomach.
It's really enjoyable to eat when it's so hot that you can't wait to stick your tongue out.
After Li Xiaoxiao ate one, she took out the stuff she had stored in her backpack, and placed a pile in front of her. She was very relieved to see it. She called Chen Mo to come and eat. Anyway, they have fruit trees, and they can still grow after eating them all. Why save money?with.
Chen Mo was not as comfortable as her, on the contrary he was a little serious, he felt the apple in his mouth: "Xiao Xiao, it's probably very valuable."
Li Xiaoxiao tilted her head: "?"
Chen Mo expressed his guess: "The radiation in my body has decreased."
It can clean up the radiation, which is really a great thing.
Li Xiaoxiao licked her mouth: "Next time Brother Bing comes to the door, let's ask him to make an appraisal."
Chen Mo nodded.
This is the best way, there is no need to hide it, the country is so big, good things emerge in endlessly, no matter how good an apple tree is, but at the national level, it is just a tree, and their country's policy has always been to put people first, The trust accumulated over the years also made him feel at ease.
After a good rest, Chen Mo got up to cook.
Li Xiaoxiao thought about not being able to eat tomatoes, so she couldn't eat fried potatoes with tomatoes, and she felt depressed. Fortunately, there were no tomatoes, but there were fungus. Chen Mo made a fried potato shreds with fungus. She was still looking forward to the new food.
The taste of the fungus is silky and flexible, and it is chewy when bitten down. The taste is quite good, which makes up for the loss in her heart.
What could be more satisfying after a hard day and eating delicious food?
She picked up the fungus, squinted her eyes and put it in her mouth: "It's really good, it would be great if there is vinegar, and you can also make cold fungus shreds."
Thinking of the sour taste, Li Xiaoxiao salivated crazily, wanting to eat it, but the fungus is already there, can the vinegar be far behind? You can ask the patrol team.
This man really didn't talk about it. Just thinking about the patrol team, there was the sound of a car on the road outside the farm. A pickup truck was parked next to the big truck, and two soldiers got out of the car.
Li Xiaoxiao thought they were looking for the patrol team, and pointed to the direction Qiang Zi left: "Haven't come back yet."
The strange soldier waved his hand: "We are here to exchange mint."
The baby-faced brother Bing said intoxicatedly: "There are really no mosquitoes, it's a land of love in a dream!"
Not only is there no mosquitoes, it is probably because there are so many mints planted, no insects can be seen, the whole farm has a nice and refreshing atmosphere, and the air is not stuffy anymore.
The strange Bing stared, the baby-faced Bing lowered his head, and pulled out an iron cage from the pickup truck. It was covered with a black cloth, and something was shaking inside.
The baby-faced Bing came to her with the cage, and lifted the black cloth to reveal the rabbits inside, one big and six small, a total of seven rabbits packed the cage to the brim, once the sight was gone, the rabbits struggled again.
Li Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up suddenly, meat!
"We are very sincere," joked the baby-faced Bingge, he is tender and lively, "so pick as much mint as you have, please, the mosquitoes after the red moon are too poisonous——”
Li Xiaoxiao is deeply touched by this point, and is willing to sell mint leaves for the patrol team, "Okay, I'll pick them right away."
The baby-faced soldier exaggeratedly bowed: "Thank you, thank you, save my life!"
Li Xiaoxiao was amused by him, but she didn't slow down picking mint leaves.
The mint branches just planted in the afternoon are all alive, and the white and thin root system can be clearly seen growing on the part that touches the soil. The leaves of these branches should be removed to improve the survival rate.
As for the part planted in the farmland, in just one afternoon, the mint branches had already bloomed and scattered leaves, and they had grown to the height of the mother plant.Well, it will grow again by tomorrow morning.
After picking it around like this, she actually picked forty-five catties of mint leaves, which greatly exceeded her expectations.
Discuss with Brother Bing, and exchange five catties of mint leaves for one catty of rabbits. Although the effect of repelling mosquitoes is strong, it cannot be eaten after all, and the price will not be too high. After all, you will not die if you are bitten by mosquitoes, but you will if you are hungry.
The rabbit that Brother Bing brought was pretty good, weighing more than nine catties, but considering Qiang Zi’s credit in the morning, she sold the tomato to Babyface at a lower price by the way, so she stopped going to the city. They didn’t have a car,The back and forth really didn't let go, the sum of the money was enough to buy the rabbit, and brother Bing brought a small bag of strawberries, and still owed her a little.
Li Xiaoxiao suggested: "Then help me identify this apple, and use it as the identification fee. By the way, I want bluestone slabs for the next payment."
When Brother Bing saw the apple, he felt refreshed just by smelling the fragrance, and immediately knew that it was a good thing: "Okay, we will come here in the morning and evening."
After the exchange, Brother Bing told them to pay attention to safety, took the ashes left over from the mutated creature, and drove away in a hurry, it seemed that he was really busy.
Li Xiaoxiao squatted down to look at the rabbits, but she didn't know what breed they were. Her ears were erect and slender, her body hair was distinct, clinging to the leather, and her round belly rolled and rolled, watching them vigilantly.
She poked the rabbit with a wooden stick, and it bit it off, "Hey, the teeth are quite sharp, Brother Mo, how do you raise the rabbit?"
Chen Mo really didn't know: "Feed the grass?"
Li Xiaoxiao: "... On such a hot day, they should be kept in a cool place, or they will die of heat, right? Rabbits seem to have burrowed?"
Chen Mo was relieved, he knew this: "Yes."
Li Xiaoxiao: "Then build a rabbit nest and spread some hay on the ground?"
It was getting dark, so they cleared the grass on the right side of the container and built a four-square-meter nest for the rabbit with moso bamboo.
Then the conversation was interrupted. Although Brother Mo was able to make calls, accidents would still happen after a long time, and everyone else in the room was going to sleep. She couldn't make a good call, which disturbed people's rest.
Li Xiaoxiao put away her phone, took off her coat and went to bed, probably because of the heater, the quilt was extra warm and fluffy tonight, she fell asleep thinking of Brother Mo's words of happiness.
The next day was New Year's Eve, they got up early in the morning and started working, and the house was built. She gave the engineering team a red envelope, thanking them for working hard day and night, and building the house before New Year's Eve.
The foreman said a lot of auspicious words, and gave her a small ceramic flower pot, which was very beautiful with sky blue glaze.
Ah Hong leads Li Bo and Uncle Li to kill chickens, pigeons, and rabbits. Ah Hong is going to make a big one. Stuff chickens in the stomachs of ducks, pigeons in the stomachs of chickens, stuffed glutinous rice with chestnuts and eight treasures in the stomachs of pigeons, and pigs.
