The last plant pet took me to be the landlord

After experiencing natural disasters and being isolated from the outside world for several months, I finally came across a village and inexplicably wanted to go in and take a look.

It was close to the road and it was also lunchtime, so the two decided to go in for a walk.

At this moment, Lu Beier suddenly remembered that Xiaojiu's system also had the function of exploring the surrounding situation.

How could I have forgotten it? Now is the time to use it.

The next moment, Xiaojiu suddenly appeared in Lu Beier's hands.

Xiao Jiu was stunned for a moment, "Host?"

"Xiaojiu, aren't you bored? You almost forgot about your exploration function! Come on, it's time for you to use your skills!"

Xiaojiu: ...How come you only remembered me when you were working?

Xiaojiu flapped his wings and flew high into the sky. After circling around, he flew back to Lu Bei'er.

"There is only this small village within a kilometer. There is no one there, and no life has been found! There is another village within five kilometers. But it is a bit far from the road, and you have to climb over two hills. It is slightly larger than this village, and no one has been found there either!"

The distance was too far, and the two did not plan to climb over the mountain. At most, they would just take a look at the village on the side of the road.

Although there was no one there, the two still collected the snow and cleared the road before going in.

This seems to be a very small village, which may look simple and depressed after the disaster. Most of the houses are ruins, and after the snow is removed, the brick walls and tiles that have been smashed and destroyed are exposed.

After passing one ruin after another, the two came to a few two-story buildings halfway up a mountain. The appearance and layout of the buildings were similar to the house where Lu Bei'er lived in Sanao Village.

There were two two-story buildings that were kept very intact. After the snow accumulated on top was removed, even the doors and windows inside were basically intact, with only the glass on the windows broken into pieces.

The doors of both houses were made of metal. Although they were not locked, they were deformed. Jiang Bai used his gold ability to open the door.

The tables, chairs and furniture inside were in a mess and covered with a thick layer of dust. After a quick check of a few rooms, they found basically nothing they could use, so they just took a casual look and left.

The doors of the remaining two small buildings were open, and the interiors were even more dilapidated and messy. Whether it was furniture, clothes, or electrical appliances, they were basically no different from garbage. After taking a look, they left directly.

Lu Beier recalled the scene when the army rescued and took away the nearby villagers. She estimated that the people here either left on their own or were taken away by the army.

After checking several small buildings, there was no one and no corpse.

When leaving the deserted village, Lu Bei'er planted a whole field of cold-resistant potatoes and sweet potatoes in a vegetable field beside the road using soil and wood, and even nurtured them to the stage of almost maturity.

Anyway, it was not a big deal for her. Maybe someone would pass by, or come back to take a look, and maybe someone would get some food to survive.

After leaving, the two took Xiaojiu back to the space.

This afternoon, Jiang Bai washed and cut vegetables, while Lu Beier cooked and frying vegetables.

Because she wanted to eat all kinds of wild vegetables picked in the space, Jiang Bai rarely made these, and Lu Bei'er was afraid that he would not taste good.

Growing up in the countryside here with her grandparents, she would taste wild vegetables when they were at their freshest every year.

My grandmother has good skills, so she has learned about 70% of it.

Purslane, amaranth and water celery can all be blanched and served cold.

It should be noted that purslane tastes sour, so do not add vinegar. You can only use salt, chili, sugar, light soy sauce and sesame oil to mix it together.

To make water celery salad, you need to use salt, garlic, chili, light soy sauce, vinegar and sesame oil.

The third vegetarian dish was stir-fried amaranth with dried tofu, and it was not served cold.

Blanch the water-soaked amaranth, chop it into small pieces, mix it with diced dried tofu, sauté the minced garlic until fragrant, then put it into the pan, add salt and light soy sauce, stir-fry quickly for a few times, and it’s ready to serve.

In addition to the three vegetarian dishes, there is also a meat dish - steamed purslane and river shrimp.

Drain the water from the pickled purslane, wash and marinate the river shrimps, bring the water to a boil, and steam the purslane and river shrimps mixed with rice flour over high heat for about fifteen minutes.

Finally, sauté the minced garlic until fragrant, add soy sauce and oyster sauce and pour it directly on the steamed purslane river shrimp.

Three vegetarian dishes and one meat dish are ready.

Lu Bei'er also found a handful of crushed peanuts and sprinkled them on the three vegetarian dishes.

While eating, Lu Bei'er's bright eyes were waiting for Jiang Bai's comments.

Jiang Bai tried them carefully one by one, and she was not disappointed.

"It tastes great! Each dish has a unique flavor. I thought wild vegetables might have a bit of bitterness, but I don't taste that at all in the ones you made! Very fresh dishes, more to my taste! You can teach me next time you make it!"

Jiang Bai's taste is similar to Lu Bei'er's, both are light.

She thought that if she liked to eat it, he must like it too.

Sure enough, after getting his approval, she said on the surface, "These dishes are very simple. I'll make them whenever you want to eat them!" But in fact, she was very happy in her heart.

Who doesn’t expect to receive sincere praise from others after cooking delicious food?

Seeing that Jiang Bai seemed to eat half a bowl of rice more than usual, just to finish the food on the table and not waste it, she felt completely satisfied.

After dinner, Jiang Bai washed the dishes, and the two found the bench that had been placed under the fruit tree in the space. With the scent of various fruit trees and flowers in the air, they both took a nap.

I left the space in the afternoon and took Xiaojiu with me and continued on the road on roller skates.

There are many ups and downs on the roads in the mountains. If you encounter a slope that you cannot climb with roller skates, you have no choice but to walk.

It’s not that I don’t want to use my car, motorcycle, and e-donkey, but the temperature is too low and they can’t be started at all.

The temperature outside is still minus seventy-five degrees Celsius.

Cars will not start at all at temperatures around -30 to -40 degrees Celsius, all-terrain vehicles cannot be used at temperatures around -40 degrees Celsius, and sled dogs can only tolerate temperatures around -40 degrees Celsius at most.

The best lead-acid batteries are about the same size as a snowmobile and are useless after temperatures drop to about 50 degrees below zero.

The only means of transportation in space that can be used at minus seventy-five degrees is probably the polar heavy-duty expedition RV.

That was a space that Jiang Bai had purchased from abroad at a high price.

Unfortunately, the size is too big and it cannot fit on the single and double lanes in the mountains.

So, in the end, their main means of travel had to be their legs.

After countless ups and downs, the two finally returned to the space to rest when it was getting dark and their strength was almost exhausted.

"Oh, I'm so tired! I flew for too long today. These wings don't even feel like my own!"

Lu Beier: ...

Xiaojiu returned to the space, flapping his wings wildly and muttering to himself.

Lu Bei'er had just taken off her coat and had not yet had time to use her wood-based abilities to relieve the pain of her legs that "didn't feel like her own".

Looking at Xiaojiu who was flapping his wings like he was having a seizure, he seemed to deserve a beating.

Don't think she can't hear this guy's sarcastic ridicule.

She just stood up straight and thought of the words to say, but Xiaojiu didn't even say hello and flew away in a flash, so fast that it seemed like his butt was on fire.

"Meow~~~"

When I looked down, it turned out to be Luna, who just ran over and rubbed against my calf, asking for a touch.

No wonder Xiaojiu ran like a frightened rabbit.

Luna is still adorable. Patting her head and belly, both the man and the cat hummed in comfort.

Jiang Bai was still the one making dinner.

While Lu Bei'er was lying on the sofa in the villa, using her wood-related abilities to relieve the soreness in her legs, Jiang Bai was busy in the kitchen as if nothing had happened.

We had noodles for dinner.

The minced meat noodles, served with green vegetables and two fried eggs, were quickly served.

"Aren't your legs uncomfortable? How about I use my wood ability to soothe your muscles!"

"Eat first! We'll talk after we finish eating!"

Maybe Jiang Bai had better endurance. After he finished eating, washed the dishes, took a shower, and got to bed, he asked Lu Beier for help.

As for how she used her wood-related abilities to help him in the end, Lu Bei'er was so tired that she fell asleep and didn't remember the details clearly.

After waking up from a nap, Lu Beier raised her head with her hair in disarray, and was confused for a moment. It was still dark outside the space, and there was no concept of time inside the space.

He looked around in a daze, recognized the surroundings and Jiang Bai on the bed, lowered his head and continued to sleep.

Jiang Bai didn't even open his eyes. He just stretched out his arms, held the person in his arms, and continued to sleep.

Until, someone’s stomach called for the empty city plan.

The two of them finally got up, washed, and had breakfast.

There was still some time before dawn, so the two men went to the farmland as usual to start harvesting potatoes and sweet potatoes.
