The Sabbath

The attic is not high, if it is for ordinary people to live in, they may have to bend over from time to time, but Ronggui and Agui are both the height of ordinary dwarves, so the height of the attic is very suitable for them.

There was no furniture in the room, only a bed and two low cabinets. The bed was woven with vines. There was a big hole in the middle, but before Ronggui woke up, Xiaomei filled the big hole with the materials at hand. .

The two low cabinets also had problems, probably old furniture replaced by the landlord. One of the two low cabinets was missing a foot, so they couldn’t hold things, and they fell to one side as soon as they were loaded; the door of the other low cabinet was broken.

The next morning, without Ronggui's telling, Xiaomei woke up and started repairing the two cabinets.I found a piece of metal to replace the missing feet. If the cabinet door could not be closed, the door hinge was broken. I made a new door hinge with a metal sheet. Finally, I put some mountain lard on it and adjusted it again. The low cabinet The door opens and closes freely.

Finally, Ronggui stuffed a few sachets into the cabinet → drip the essential oil on the rag and put it in the bag. This is a simple and easy-to-use sachet, and the musty smell in the cabinet will soon fade away. Not a lot.

However, the luggage of the two robots is too much, how can it be possible to fit them all in just two cabinets?

Xiaomei said that this place should be rich in rattan, and later he would buy a batch of rattan and weave a batch of furniture with rattan.Ronggui immediately felt relieved, and begged Xiaomei to weave a basket out of rattan for herself, and then went to visit other places in the attic.

This attic is indeed quite big, yes, except that the height is a bit low, the area is as large as the two floors downstairs~ Except for one room that is locked and used to store the landlord’s own things, the other rooms are basically the same. It is empty for them to use by themselves.

Ronggui even found a bathroom with a bathtub and a kitchen in the attic~

The bathroom is a great thing!Their bodies can finally take a bath, and the kitchen...it seems that the kitchen is useless, Ronggui decided to change the kitchen into Xiaomei's studio.

"This will be your territory from now on~" Ronggui said to Xiaomei who was behind him after pondering for a while.

Xiaomei who has a kitchen/studio for no reason:  …

= - =

After putting the things back roughly, Ronggui opened all the windows in the attic to ventilate. Although he couldn't smell it, he knew that the attic must be full of musty smell after a long time of inhabitation, and there were many signs of decay on the walls. I have to tell Xiaomei later that these places also need to be repaired.

Ronggui was thinking, when he suddenly heard a little movement from below.

Following the sound, Ronggui saw a person on the medicine field on the first floor. The person was wearing tight clothes and holding a hoe in his hand, weeding the grass again and again.

Is that person the landlord?

Even if I got up early, I didn't expect the landlord to get up earlier than me!

I also felt that yesterday's behavior was too rude, and wanted to make up for it, Ronggui hurriedly greeted the people below.

"Good morning!" Leaning on the window, the petite robot said energetically to the human below.

The man didn't seem to hear it, Ronggui raised his head slowly when he said hello for the second time, wearing a big sun hat and rain hat, Ronggui couldn't see the man's face clearly.

The man did not speak.

Ronggui tilted his head.

At this time, Xiaomei also walked to the window sill with a pot of bean mushrooms in her arms. Turning her head, Ronggui whispered to Xiaomei: "I thought the person working downstairs was the landlord's old lady, but it doesn't look like it looks like It's a man."

"It seems that there should be other tenants here..." After Ronggui finished speaking, he continued to sit on the window sill to watch the people downstairs working.

After looking at it for a while, he felt bored, so he left this window again and went to another window to look at the terrain outside.

And Xiaomei——

He placed the flowerpot in his hand neatly outside the window and fixed it with a vine. After confirming that the existence of the flowerpot did not affect the opening and closing of the window, he glanced at the man who was still working slowly below.

Xiaomei watched quietly for a while, but the man who was working below never looked up, and then he also left.

This time, they didn't spend a whole day just cleaning up the room like they did in Yedehan City.

The reason is that Xiaomei said: strong nutrient solution is not easy to buy, you need to book in advance and wait in line. In order to get the nutrient solution as soon as possible, they should queue up as soon as possible.

Feeling that what Xiaomei said was very reasonable, Ronggui just opened all the windows and put aside the things that had not been tidied up, and the two of them went downstairs together when the time was almost up.

Their bodies were still placed on Rhubarb. When they first arrived in a strange new place, they did not dare to take their bodies off before confirming their safety. They did not dare to bury them in the soil. The soil here is too wet. With so many zombies buried under the ground, Rong Gui always felt that it was not very auspicious.

What if those zombies are dishonest in the soil?What if they dug from outside the city into the city under the soil?My own and Xiaomei's white and tender bodies~ If those guys accidentally gnawed on them, it's over!

After thinking about it, they finally carried their bodies with them. If there was a place that sold locks on the road, they would buy a lock. It would not be too late to put the body in after tidying up a suitable room and locking the room.

When he went downstairs, Rong Gui planned to make a serious apology.

For this reason, he also dug out the most beautiful flowerpot in his house ← made of plum, the ground beans growing in it were also very well dressed, and the small light bulb was very bright, Ronggui was going to give the flowerpot as a gift to the landlady's mother-in-law.

Unexpectedly, when they reached the first floor, there was no one on the first floor.

Old carpets, tablecloths that have been washed clean but no patterns can be seen on them, rocking chairs full of traces of time...

All that awaited them was the quiet living room.

Look carefully, the rocking chair is still shaking slightly.

It looks like someone has been sitting on it before, and that person just left not long ago...

The strange feeling from last night came to mind again, Ronggui shivered.

"Put the ground beans on the rocking chair." At this moment, Xiaomei's voice sounded beside her.

With a jolt, Ronggui quickly followed what Xiaomei said.

When putting the ground beans, Ronggui noticed that there was a half-woven blanket on the rocking chair. After thinking about it, he didn't put the flower pot on the rocking chair, but placed it under the rocking chair, at the foot.

After thinking about it, he mustered up the courage to shout:

"Grandma, the landlord, we're out on errands, and the ground beans in the flowerpot are a gift, I hope you like it."

After speaking, he hurried back to Xiaomei's side.

The two little robots left the old house full of vicissitudes without looking back.

It didn't take long before the sound of a car starting came from outside the door.

And not long after they left, the floor creaked.An old woman came in from the outside, still wearing the black clothes she wore last night. Due to the many times of washing, the black coarse cloth clothes looked a little whitish.

A few pieces of wet soil were faintly stained on the hem of the skirt. If you look carefully, there is also soil on her gloves.

Slowly bending down, she brushed off the mud on the hem of her skirt, took off her gloves, and then slowly walked back to the living room.

In the darkness, her eyes covered with a layer of white film looked particularly strange.

Although she said that she couldn't see, she was extremely dexterous when she walked, and she didn't touch anything. She walked steadily to the rocking chair, and even... when she walked to the rocking chair, she even bent down.

With a little force, she picked up the ground beans that Ronggui had put there before.

The firefly green light shone on the old man's cold face and on her white eyes.

Slowly, maintaining the posture of holding the ground beans, the old man sat on the rocking chair again.

Soon the sound of the rocking chair swinging was heard again in the room.

-

Those were things that Ronggui didn't know about.

After staying outside all night, Rhubarb's body was covered with drops of water. Apart from the drops of water, there were actually a few floral trousers on the roof of the car!

When he first saw those flowery trousers, Rong Gui was stunned, he thought for a long time, and finally came to the conclusion that "the wind probably brought it here".

Don't people here like to hang their clothes outside?There is a wind-generating system in the city. When the wind is strong, some clothes will always be blown off and fall into the alley, and just land on Rhubarb's head... It is not impossible.

Ronggui had no choice but to bite the bullet and pinch a few pants bottoms with his fingers.

Hanging the trousers on the vines of the nearby plants, he decided to hang them like this. If the owner of the floral trousers still cares about these trousers, he can just take them away.

But when rhubarb started, Ronggui was taken aback again.

Suddenly there was a cat meowing under the car, and then, a black cat jumped out from under the car!Leaving a black shadow and a few footprints on the car window, the black cat jumped away.

"Is there a cat here?" Ronggui covered his chest with one hand, still in shock.

"It's a small beast named Carter. Its hunting ability is extremely poor. Most of them live in cities and live with humans." Xiaomei's indifferent voice sounded again, his voice was as slow as ever, without any fluctuations, but it was also It was this kind of "calm without waves" that appeased Ronggui, and Ronggui felt that he had calmed down again.

until--

"However, this kind of beast is a scavenging beast. When there is no normal food, they will dig up rotting food and eat it. It is precisely because of this characteristic that Carter is considered an unlucky beast, especially Black Carter."

Ronggui: ...Does that mean they saw something inauspicious early in the morning?

An ominous feeling filled Ronggui's brain, even turning on Xiao Hei and listening to the fancy commercials of Sisiro City for a long time didn't make him feel better.

In the following time, they began to find their way according to the store address provided to them by the beauty staff.

Today, there are only three shops that sell real powerful nutrient solutions. Xiaomei visits them in order of distance, from far to near. The business of the first store is so good that it doesn’t accept reservations at all; the business of the second store is a little bit worse, but even if you book now, the earliest you can get the powerful nutrient solution is eight months later!

In fact, it's okay for eight months, Ronggui thinks it's good to be able to make a reservation, but Xiaomei looks...a bit impatient?

Ronggui sensitively sensed Xiaomei's deep anxiety.

"Let's go to the third store again." Xiaomei's voice didn't change at all, but Ronggui just felt that Xiaomei was a little impatient.

He didn't seem to want to wait that long - Ronggui tilted his head.

But Xiaomei deserved to be Xiaomei, he suppressed his impatience, and after talking about going to the third store, he made a reservation at the second store according to the procedure and paid the deposit.

Sisiro City does not provide travel and residence permits. If you are not here to buy medicine, you cannot stay in the city for a long time. If you want to stay here for a long time, you must be able to produce a corresponding order to prove that you really need to stay again for a period of time.

It takes a while for the order to be generated, and the store has to make a pick-up card for them on the spot. While waiting for the pick-up card, the waiter smiled and led them to an open-air lounge, which is similar to an open-air coffee shop. Although there is no sunshine, but There are exquisite candlesticks on each table, and the candlelight illuminates the entire open-air lounge beautifully. In addition, free delicious drinks are also provided...

Ronggui and the others had no way to eat, but he heard the guests around him sigh that the drink was delicious, so——

Glancing at Xiaomei, Ronggui pushed out two bottles from his chest, then poured the drinks in front of them into the bottles and refilled them.

"Go back and appraise it. If the ingredients are acceptable, we can drink it for our bodies~" Rong Gui shrewdly said.

Xiaomei: ...

Ronggui keenly noticed that Xiaomei seemed to relax a bit.

The corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and Ronggui, who was a little relieved, began to look around——

There are a lot of guests waiting here, each table has a very distinctive dress style, and it looks like they come from different places. When thinking that these people may come from his future and where Xiaomei may go, Ronggui's heart is filled with curious.

Enthusiastically, Ronggui looked at the table from table to table until his eyes landed on the round table in the right corner.

Very strange, there is no drink in front of him.

Unlike other guests, this guest was unusually quiet.From the moment Ronggui's eyes fell on him, Ronggui didn't see him move.

The clothes on his body were extremely worn out. Looking carefully, the clothes were not earthy brown, but were covered with dirt.

As if just crawled out of the soil——

Suddenly something came to mind, Ronggui froze suddenly.

Then he saw people coming next to that person. It was a group of people, talking loudly while walking, and their actions were very rude.

Ronggui saw that one of the people opened up the seat of the round table next door, and because of too much movement, the person bumped into the guest.

The guest who had been motionless finally moved, nervous, Ronggui saw the guest slowly raised his head, then turned his head——

The moment the candlelight on the table illuminated his face, Ronggui grabbed Xiaomei's hand suddenly, and stood up abruptly.

really!

That is a zombie!

The entire face was completely rotten, and the candlelight illuminated a rotten face! ! !

After such a distance, Ronggui was taken aback. It is conceivable that the unlucky guest who was facing the zombie directly~ After a loud scream, the eyes of all the guests in the lounge fell on In the originally hidden corner.

The zombies who were sitting quietly in the corner before had nowhere to hide.

Amidst the screams of the guests one after another, Ronggui saw the shop waiters coming quickly, wearing thick clothes, they were well-trained to set up the zombie who was still sitting there dumbfounded.

"I'm sorry~ Don't be afraid, everyone. This is a customer who pre-ordered a powerful nutrient solution in our store. While waiting for the nutrient solution, he accidentally bought an elixir of youth, and then died accidentally, and it turned out like this Well~"

"His family buried him outside the city, and it turns out that he still seems to remember the powerful nutrient solution he ordered. No, he deliberately climbs over the wall every once in a while..."

"Hehehe, after living in Sisiro City for a long time, everyone will find that the undead live in our lives. This is a very common thing~"

"Everyone don't have to worry that we will renege on our debts after death. Don't worry, we have already poured this guest's powerful nutrient solution on his grave~"

"He just likes this lounge very much..."

While ordering someone to take away the zombie guests and rebury them, the store manager explained to the terrified guests in the lounge with a smile.

After listening to his explanation, Ronggui felt that the whole robot was not good.

Especially after he left the lounge later and found a zombie queuing honestly in the shop.

Ronggui: =-=

It is completely different from the screaming outsiders, but the calmness of the locals.

Regarding the zombies who somehow escaped the detection of the inspectors and walked into the city, the locals behaved very calmly.
