Plane Convenience Store

"Mr. Shopkeeper, do you have anything to eat here?"

The warm milk tea comforted Kuby's spirit and also warmed his stomach.

The warm coconut that fell into his stomach did not bring him a sense of fullness, but further awakened his appetite.

Kuby knew that he was hungry in the first place, but fear and tension oppressed his spirit, so he temporarily lost the sense of hunger.

Now, though, he's fully recovered, and his hungry stomach is wriggling again, reminding his owner that he needs to eat.

So, Kuby pleaded again: "Sir, I hid in a tree hole when the moon was just rising. Now, it has been 12 hours since my last meal, and I am in desperate need of food."

Speaking of this, he pulled his half-wet shirt and said: "Look, it started to rain in the middle of the night, so I was completely soaked, if you have something warm here, it would be great .”

Kuby sneezed when he thought of the rain trickling into him through the cracks in the trees, as if the damp had chased him from the disaster to the convenience store and made him shiver.

"Looks like you're really freezing."

Lu Lu sighed, lowered his head and thought about what hot food to eat in the store.

The oden is hot in the store every day, but the sales volume is very good today, so the oden is sold out early, and there will be no more oden in the evening.

Looking at Kuby's appearance, Lu Lu knew that he was freezing badly. If he wanted to increase his calories as soon as possible, it would be better to have convenient and quick food.

Convenient, fast, and hot stuff...

Lu Lu's eyes lit up, he took a bucket of instant noodles from the shelf, quickly tore off the lid, poured hot water into it, and brought it to Kuby.

"Is this...macaroni?"

Kuby looked at the strips in front of him, his eyes full of hesitation, because this strip-shaped object was familiar to him, but it was very different from the Nabres pasta he had eaten.

"This is instant noodles. It can be eaten after tearing open the package and soaking in hot water for 3 minutes." Lu Lu said, "It's a fast food product, specially for those who are too lazy to cook and want to eat quickly."

"Noodles." Kubi muttered the name of the instant noodles a few times to himself. He took the plastic fork that Lu Lu helped him unpack, looked down at the noodles in front of him intently, and counted the cooking time in his mind.

"Just wait for a while. If you can't wait, you can eat it now, but the taste may not be as good." Lu Lu said again: "Instant noodles are already cooked, so you can eat them directly without heating water. You eat the noodles first, I'm going to turn on the water heater, and you can take a hot bath in a while, maybe it will be better."

Giving Coby a dry blanket, Lulu asked Coby for his half-wet shirt and underpants, and threw them in the dryer.

Then, he turned on the water heater, returned to the convenience store, and continued to digest food on his stomach.

"The noodles are already boiled, why don't you eat them?"

Lu Lu looked at Kubi holding the fork in surprise, and reminded him, "If you don't eat the noodles, it will be soaked into paste, and it won't taste good at all."

"Oh, it's already ripe."

Kuby suddenly realized, and finally put the fork into the noodles, picked out a few with the fork, and started to eat.

"Huh, huh, it's so hot."

The freshly soaked instant noodles are undoubtedly piping hot, but that's no problem for the frozen Cooby.

What made him feel hot was an unbearable spicy taste. He guessed that onions must have been added to the noodles, but this spicy taste was completely inconsistent with the onion's temperament.

"It's chili. You eat spicy beef noodles. I think you're dripping wet. Eating something spicy will warm you up."

Kubi agreed with Lu Lu's answer. Although the spicy taste was unbearable, his body really warmed up after eating a bucket of instant noodles.

Under Lu Lu's instruction, Kubi threw the instant noodle bucket with no soup left into the trash can, then wrapped the stall tightly, and waited for the 'magic device' called the water heater to heat up the hot water.

After waiting for a while, Kuby finally heard the voice of Lulu calling him.

So he learned from the owner how to adjust the water temperature, and after a demonstration, he finally started the long-awaited shower.

"It's so warm, this kind of magic device that can generate hot water at the touch of a button is really convenient." Cuby was thinking wildly while taking a shower: "Mr. the shop owner should also come from aristocratic background in this world to have so many magic devices." Use it."

Quickly let the hot water drench all over his body, and when Cuby finished bathing, he had already absorbed enough heat from the hot water.

When he came out, another surprise also touched him. His clothes had returned to their dry state, and there was still residual heat when he touched them.

"Thank you, Mr. Shopkeeper." Kuby sincerely bowed to Lu Lu to thank him, and at the same time asked a little uneasy: "Mr. Shopkeeper, can I, can I come here again?"

"Okay, there should be a red stone near you when you came, go back and find it, and come over when the stone is hot."

With Lu Lu's promise, Kubi had a plan in his mind. He planned to hide in the convenience store every full moon night, so that he would not be caught by the devil.

Because he was worried that the devil would still be waiting there after he went out, Kubi didn't dare to leave. He asked Lu Lu for permission to leave before dawn, and then heaved a sigh of relief, and found a place to lean against the wall and take a nap.

Tick ​​tock, tock tock.

The time quickly reached 10:30.

Lu Lu looked at his phone and saw that it was time for a break, so he greeted Song Cheng, hung up the sign that the business was closed, and went back to the room.

A night without dreams.

Habitually touching the charm in his pocket, Lu Lu got up to wash up, and glanced at the convenience store worriedly.

Kubi was a man who kept his promise, and when Lu Lu looked out, he had already left.

So after washing, Lu Lu opened the curtains that blocked the glass, so that everything in the convenience store was covered with the newly rising sunlight, allowing passers-by to watch.

Go out, exercise in the morning, eat breakfast.

When Lu Lu returned to the convenience store, An Xian (the female clerk) also opened the store door and started her day's work.

So he didn't bother her, retreated into the room and dialed the number Qiu Tong gave to see if he could get through.

"Sorry, the number you dialed is temporarily not in the server, please try again later."

"Sure enough, it's a remote mountain village, and there's no signal at all."

Knowing that Qiu Tong could not be contacted, Lu Lu waited patiently until evening, and calculated the appointed time, Qiu Tong should come in a while.

"Lu Lu, I brought what you asked for."

Qiu Tong waved his mobile phone at Lu Lu, holding a bag of things in his hand. From a distance, Lu Lu knew that it contained pomegranates.

"It's fine if you come, why bring something?"

Seeing that Qiutong gave him the pomegranate, he was a little puzzled. He had no shortage of food in the city, so Qiutong could just keep it for himself, so what did he do for him?

"This pomegranate is different from the ones in the city. It is a pure natural food without pesticides."

Qiu Tong said: "I can assure you of this, because the pomegranate tree is near my place, and I caught the worms when they grow."

Qiu Tong turned on the phone and showed Lu Lu the picture of the pomegranate worm, making Lu Lu's hair stand on end.

In the picture, colorful caterpillars are climbing on the pomegranate.

If people with trypophobia read it, they will definitely feel uncomfortable from the dense caterpillars on the pomegranate.

After looking at the pictures for a while, Lu Lu felt that the caterpillars were just like that. Anyway, what he ended up eating was pomegranates, not caterpillars, so there was no point in being nervous.

Putting the pomegranate aside, Lu Lu imported the pictures on Qiutong's phone to his computer.

A few days ago, he asked Qiu Tong to help him record some videos of the mountain village. Since he had never been there, he wanted to take this opportunity to learn about the mountain village, so as to make up for his regret that he could not go out.

With the data transmission, pictures and videos appeared in Lu Lu's notebook in droves.

When all the images were copied to the computer, Lu Lu unplugged the data cable and returned the phone to Qiu Tong. While browsing the pictures, he curiously asked her about the stories about the pictures.

"Hey, you guys still kill dogs?"

Lulu pointed to a picture.In that picture, a grizzled old man held up a smudged 'Dogs Accepted' sign and in the other hand a dog's tail with entrails attached.

There was still a little blood on the dog's tail, and the thin intestines were stretched out, as if the old man had pulled out the tail, which made Lu Lu, who had no tail, feel a dull pain in the back.

"Yes, the small restaurant in that place sells dog meat." Qiu Tong said: "The place is remote and you can't buy meat dogs, so the owner of the restaurant always collects dogs from the local area. When the restaurant receives dogs, the There is dog meat among the big dishes.”

"On the day I went to support education, the folks there invited me to have a meal. One dish was roast dog meat dipped in salt. The hospitality was hard to turn down, so I ate a few pieces."

She paused for a moment, as if reminiscing about the taste of dog meat: "The dog meat made in restaurants tastes average, and it is quite salty when eaten with salt, but it is not as bad as it is said on the Internet. Moreover, restaurants do not have menus, and diners look at the dishes. The dishes on the shelf, whether it is boiled or roasted, as long as there are dishes, the boss is willing to cook."

"Those folks invited me to eat when they saw dog meat on the shelf."

"You dare to eat dogs that aren't meat." Lu Lu said, "You don't have to worry about getting sick from eating three-no dogs of unknown origin."

"Is it all the kindness of the folks? How can I not eat it?" Qiu Tong said with a smile: "The food in the restaurant tastes average, but the noodles are solid. Compared with the price of ten yuan for a small bowl in the city, three yuan there There is a bowl full of toppings, all of which are leeks or green onions, and the taste is a bit heavy, but when it comes to rice, just eating noodles can fill you up."

When Bi first came to the store, Qiu Tong's words were mixed with local accents, and Mandarin was not as clear as it was at the beginning.

Lu Lu secretly said that the environment really changed people, Qiu Tong has only been there for a few months, and the changes are so great.

And just looking at Qiu Tong's current clothes, you can tell how much she has changed.Compared with the fashionable clothes at the beginning, the clothes she wears now are full of rural atmosphere. I believe that after a while, people who say that she was born and raised in the country will believe it.
