Doomsday Mastery

Compared with the survivors of the base in City Z who are busy and making various preparations for the new year, the situation in the capital City H is obviously not so good.

A large-scale zombie siege in October made the military seize the opportunity to bring many abilities in the city to the front line in the name of resisting zombies. Yang power group.However, the supernatural beings are not fools. Knowing that the inner city can't accommodate them, and they are unable to contend with those state machines, they simply took advantage of this opportunity to resist the tide of zombies and stationed in the outer city in large numbers. For a while, the two forces were in a state of stalemate. , the people in the base were panicked, and they were afraid that a fight would break out at any time.

The struggle between the supernatural beings and the military has instead reduced a large number of ordinary people living in the outer city to victims. The outer city has such a large area. If the supernatural beings want to settle in, they must let the "indigenous people" here vacate their space. The best way to make room is to take advantage of this wave of zombies and let them "unfortunately die."Poor these people have survived the early days of the end of the world, and managed to reach a relatively safe base. Before they could catch their breath, they began to struggle for food and clothing. Becoming a victim of the struggle of the strong, or being displaced again, or dying under the gnawing of zombies, this is the cruelty of the last days. Under the selection of nature and human nature, only the strong can survive in the end.

Temporary government office buildingOffice of the Supreme Leader

He Sen, a former national congressman and now the supreme leader of the provisional government, frowned while holding a telegram from City Z.At this moment, his complexion was yellow, and he didn't even bother to take care of his once dyed black and shiny hair, allowing them to gradually return to their original grayness.This well-maintained middle-aged man, who frequently appeared on government channels before the apocalypse, aged ten years in just a few months, and was no longer as proud as he was when he was in a position of power.

"Old He, after watching for a long time, you should say something." The second in command of the provisional government at the desk urged anxiously.

As soon as he received the news that Zhang Hong was arrested by Gu Ze, he rushed to report. Zhang Hong also sent a telegram two days ago saying that the matter was almost settled, and their interim government could move to the base in City Z immediately, without being caught by the capital army. Those old things under the control of Fang, did not expect that two days after the good news came back, Zhang Hong and his subordinates were arrested by Gu Ze, who fled to City Z and settled down. Their provisional government and Gu Ze had a grudge. What to do.

He Sen sneered helplessly, "Speak? What can I say? Zhang Hong, that idiot, left Qin Baichuan alone and didn't take advantage of him, but went to curry favor with the Lin family. Who is Lin Yuehuan? He's just like his father, he's a cannibal The hungry wolf who doesn't spit out bones, plus Gu Ze, we got involved in the fact that he was forced to resist the tide of zombies, and now he has a firm foothold in Z, can he not wait for an opportunity to retaliate? So I said nothing No, Lao Zhang and the others should be in danger."

The second-in-command smiled awkwardly, "Hey, I also know that Lao Zhang and the others probably won't be able to come back, but it's a pity that they have already talked with the people from Langyan, if we can wait until we enter the Guze on Guangyuan Street, How nice it would be."

He Sen also smiled inexplicably, "That's right, it's a pity that we don't have this life. Once the owner of the Lin family got the territory, he immediately turned his face and refused to recognize him. What can we do?"

"Hmph, maybe Lao Zhang was kidnapped this time, and it was all the result of a combination of Lin and Gu Ze. I said that Lie Yang didn't go anywhere and just withdrew to City Z. It turned out that they had colluded with each other for a long time. We It’s a good thing, it’s useless to let someone act as a shield for a while, but it’s still not profitable.”

"That's it." He Sen replied, his expression normal.

After the second in command left, he slowly put down the telegram in his hand, his expression seemed relieved.

It's good that Zhang Hong is dead, so that there will be no short-sighted people clamoring to move elsewhere in the near future.He has seen through it, and today is different from the past, what can a group of mobs under him, who have neither troops nor weapons, do?Even supplies rely on him to cooperate with the military to rule the base in the name of the country so that there will be no shortage.But if they move to those bases that have no troops stationed and are simply ruled by the supernatural group, maybe their interim government will not even have the only use.In the last days, apart from the old foxes in the military who want both face and face, and try to legalize the rule, who else cares about the country's power, and more importantly, when he arrives at other bases, He Sen can still keep his top leader firmly. status?There are quite a few people under him who are eager to take the position of the supreme leader, so it is better for Zhang Hong to die.

……

Tomorrow is the Spring Festival. Early this morning, Ruan Ning started to work without touching the ground. Even Lin Yuehuan, who had always been sitting in the study room waiting for food and drink, was dragged away.

Ruan Ning is from the south. According to their customs, there must be rice cakes during the Chinese New Year. Rice cakes are homophonic with "nian gao", which means rising every year. However, although the meaning of rice cakes is good, it is not so convenient to make.

Eight-treasure rice cake, wash the glutinous rice, soak it in water for 24 hours, steam it in a drawer, take it out, and then mash it with a wooden stick and let it cool. The appearance of rolling up the sleeves and holding the big wooden stick to smash the rice cakes makes me feel happy no matter how I look at it.

While Boss Lin was pounding rice cakes hard, Ruan Ning quickly prepared sugar, hemp seeds, raisins, wax gourd sticks and other raw materials and stirred them to make fillings, then brushed a layer of lard on the square plate, and spread the glutinous rice that Boss Lin had pounded , Put an appropriate amount of fillings in each layer, spread a total of three layers and steam them in a pan, and finally cut them into small pieces with a knife and place them on a plate, and you're done.

Boss Lin, who was in contact with the kitchen for the first time, looked at the colorful pastries neatly stacked on the plate, and felt quite proud. This was the fruit of his hard work swinging the wooden stick thousands of times.While Ruan Ning was not paying attention, he reached out and took a piece, put it in his mouth and chewed it, um, it was soft and sweet, so it was delicious, so his wife was very handy, and when he got another piece, the tiger watched his father put one piece to the left and one piece to the right. He sent those beautifully colored snacks to him, and he gave a yelp to indicate that he wanted to try it too.

"You want to eat too? Okay, I'll give you a taste too. Your little daddy's craftsmanship is really good." Boss Lin picked up another piece casually, and just as he was about to feed it to his dog son, he felt a sharp gaze firmly fixed on it. in his hands.

"Lin Yuehuan, that's for Chinese New Year, who told you to move now!"

Oops, I got angry, and I didn't even call Brother Huan anymore.Boss Lin yelled that it was not good, turned around and explained to the angry Ruan Ning without changing his expression: "It's not that the tiger has to make a fuss to eat, and I can't do anything about it. This guy is really ignorant, and he eats it during the New Year. I'm also clamoring for it, wait, I'll educate it right now."

The tiger stared innocently at his little father with small eyes, expressing that he had been wronged.

Ruan Ning observed carefully for a while, and found that the expressions of the two men were more innocent than the other, and he couldn't tell who was responsible for the crime, so he had to blast all the people and dogs into the living room. He was so busy here, These two are good, and they will enjoy the fruits of victory.

Boss Lin accused me of being wronged, I sat back to the living room with the plate that Ruan Ningsai gave him with an innocent expression, and when I saw my daughter-in-law went back to the kitchen, I immediately changed my face and looked at the dog son sitting at his feet with contempt , "Look at you stupid, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't let Xiaoning out."

The tiger is also impatient, pulling its neck and howling, then you still wronged me, just don't feel guilty at all?

"Hmph, sorry, what's that?" Boss Lin snorted coldly, and stuffed the rice cakes on the plate into his mouth without guilt, thinking that this southern snack tastes really good.

"Wow, woof, woof, woof!" I got kicked out of the kitchen because of you, so you don't want to give me a piece of compensation?

Boss Lin glanced at the tiger, and said confidently, "I don't want to."

"..." The tiger was furious.

In the north, there is a folk song of "25. Fried tofu, 26. Stewed mutton, 27. Killing a cock, 28. Making noodles, 29. Steaming steamed buns, staying up overnight at [-], twisting and twisting on the New Year's Day...", saying This is what you need to prepare for the New Year.The steamed buns, fried tofu, stewed mutton, etc. mentioned in it were all prepared by Ruan Ning in advance. In addition, he also racked his brains and put in a lot of effort for lunch at noon.

Early in the morning, several captains of Langyan came together, along with Hou Yu, who had a special status in the Lin family. Get together for the New Year.

"Oh, brother Huan, Xiao Ning, happy new year, there is today every year." Zhang Hua, who entered the door first, said auspicious words of New Year's greetings, handed the firecrackers in his hand to Ruan Ning, and handed him a Red envelope.

Ruan Ning stared at the red envelope in his hand with some surprise, he was so old that he could still receive this?It feels so subtle.

The rest of the captains also came in one by one. While saying New Year greetings, they all smiled and handed Ruan Ning a red envelope. Each red envelope was bulging into a small bag. It didn't look like money, and it was a bit hard to hold. Ruan Ning was curious about what was in the red envelope.

Lin Yuehuan smiled and watched the people give Ruan Ning red envelopes, but he didn't say anything to stop them. Instead, he waited for everyone to enter the living room before leaning over to Ruan Ning's ear and saying, "Brother also gave you a red envelope, I'll give it to you tonight."

Ruan Ning became even more curious, and didn't know what was in Brother Huan's red envelope. Lin Yuehuan seemed to see what he was thinking, and smiled and patted his head, "I can't tell you now, but I will know in the evening."

So Ruan Ning became even more curious...

Everyone was eating melons and fruits and chatting in the living room, which was very lively.At noon, the food is very rich, and the names are also very auspicious, such as Niannianyouyu (sweet and sour fish), Dajidaili (chestnut stewed chicken), Happy Gathering (Mushroom and Winter Melon Soup), Happy Gathering (Yipin Assorted Platter), and There are more than a dozen regular dishes for the New Year's Eve dinner, such as mutton burger, secret pork knuckle, and braised lion's head.

A table of people ate and chatted happily. Even Ruan Ning, who was banned from drinking alcohol, was allowed to drink a small glass of white wine under the supervision of Mr. Lin. Watching the night, I just catch up on sleep when I have nothing to do in the afternoon.

Zhang Hua and the others simply took a rest in the guest room and waited to watch the night together.
