Ten Days End

After hearing this, Qiao Jiajin handed over the cloth bag on his waist without hesitation, and Ringo followed closely.

Tiantian looked at the two of them with an unnatural expression, but she was in a weak position after all. After thinking it over, she handed over her cloth bag.

Qi Xia took all the cloth bags, sat aside and started to fiddle with something. Not long after, he threw away an empty cloth bag, stood up and said to the three people: "We earned five people's share this time, a total of ninety-five "Dao". This number cannot be divided equally among four people. We can only add the one we left at the beginning to make ninety-six, twenty-four for each person."

He handed the three cloth bags forward and said to the three people: "I have packed them for you. Remember to count them in front of you. I will not admit it afterwards."

Tiantian quickly reached out to take the cloth bag, opened it and counted it. It was indeed twenty-four "Dao", not one less.

Ringo and Qiao Jiajin hung the cloth bags back on their waists.

"Don't you want to count them?" Qi Xia said, "I'm a liar."

"It doesn't matter." Ringo shook his head and said, "If I find out that there is less in the future, I will steal it from you."

"Yes, don't try that." Qiao Jiajin also waved his hand, "Where to go next?"

Qi Xia looked at the bear arm in Qiao Jiajin's arms, thought for a while, and said, "Let's go eat something..."

...

The idea of ​​several people is very simple. If they can cook this bear arm, as long as they can fill their stomachs, they can swallow it no matter what it tastes like.

But in this dilapidated city, it is very difficult to find cooking necessities.

There is no clean water source, stove, pot, lighter, none of these things.

Several people wandered in the abandoned buildings in the city for more than an hour, but still found nothing.

When they walked to an abandoned restaurant, Qiao Jiajin finally couldn't help it.

"This is not a solution." He threw his bear arm to the ground and moved his sore wrist. "We carried these dozens of kilograms of meat around. In the end, we were exhausted if we didn't starve to death."

"Thank you for your hard work." Ringo said to Qiao Jiajin with a smile, "Do you want me to take it for a while?"

"No need for that."

"I feel there is a lot of hope here." Tiantian looked around the restaurant and found that the damage here was not serious.

Sure enough, after a few people searched around, they found an aluminum pot under a table.

The pot looked clean, just a little deformed.

"As for firewood, there are everywhere here." Qi Xia looked at the damaged furniture on the ground, "The only thing missing is water and fire."

"I'll go to the kitchen." Tiantian went straight to the back kitchen of the restaurant, "Maybe there is water there."

Qi Xia nodded slightly and began to look for other useful things in the room. After a few seconds, Qi Xia felt that it was not appropriate, and said to Qiao Jiajin: "Qiao Jiajin, you go with Tiantian, be careful of the "indigenous people". "

"That makes sense." Qiao Jiajin nodded and walked towards the back kitchen, but before he took three steps, he heard Tiantian's voice from afar.

"Huh? Why are you here?"

"Ah! Sister, you are here too!"

The voice talking to Tiantian was a female voice.

Qi Xia and Qiao Jiajin immediately ran to the back kitchen, and when they opened the door, they found the slightly plump girl standing here.

She stretched out her hand, took Tiantian's arm affectionately, and said to everyone: "Why are you all here? Is it such a coincidence?"

Qi Xia looked at the woman coldly, with a somewhat unhappy expression.

"You followed us?"

"Ah?" The girl showed an unbelievable expression, "How is it possible? ! I came here first."

Qiao Jiajin didn't know what was going on in front of him. Why did this girl wait for them here on purpose?

"Are you looking for something? "The girl asked again.

"Yes, we are looking for water and fire." Tiantian replied.

"Water and fire?" The girl laughed again, "That's great, we have both here."

Under Qi Xia's cautious gaze, the woman took Tiantian to a closet. She raised her feet and opened the closet door. There were indeed several plastic buckets filled with water.

Then she took out a lighter from her pocket: "Look."

Qi Xia felt that all this was too coincidental, as if it was arranged by someone.

Tiantian took the lighter handed by the woman with some joy and asked: "Little girl, do you really want to lend this to us?"

"Sister, don't be so polite." The woman smiled harmlessly, "We survivors should help each other."

Tiantian had a good impression of the woman and thanked her repeatedly.

"What do you want? "Qi Xia asked from the side.

The slightly plump girl turned her head blankly and replied: "What do you want? I don't want anything, I'm just doing you a favor."

"It's better this way." Qi Xia ignored her and turned to collect things that could be used as firewood.

"That brother is weird." The girl blinked her big eyes, "Why is he so defensive against me?"

"That's his personality, you just get used to it." Tiantian also smiled and said, "Little girl, what's your name?"

"Sister, just call me Xiaoxiao."

Ling Qin looked at Xiaoxiao from the side and always felt that something was strange.

The girl was slightly fat, with broad shoulders, and she was wearing a very fat T-shirt, but her cheeks were very thin, which was not proportional to her body shape.

"Xiaoxiao, stay and eat something with us." Tiantian said, "The four of us can't finish that bear arm."

"Yeah." Xiaoxiao nodded happily.

Qi Xia saw that the girl named Xiaoxiao was hiding something, so he stopped asking. He just hoped that she would not show off her skills and try to deceive him here.

Qiao Jiajin found a few bricks and built a simple stove, threw some scrap wood in it and lit it.

With the help of Xiaoxiao, Tiantian cleaned the pot and boiled another pot of water.

Qi Xia processed the bear arm on the side.

He often cooked at home, but he had never cooked a bear arm, so he could only treat it as a chicken for the time being.

After simply scalding it with hot water, he plucked the hair, peeled the skin, and rinsed the blood with clean water. He insisted that Xiaoxiao not touch the ingredients, and no one objected.

Qiao Jiajin took out a rusty kitchen knife from the kitchen, polished it briefly, cut the processed bear arm into two pieces, and threw the whole piece directly into the pot.

This is the most perfect cooking method they can do.

Broth.

Watching the water in the pot slowly boil, the sound of "gurgling" was heard, and several people sat together, quietly looking at the iron pot, without saying a word.

After a while, Ringo asked: "Will bear meat taste good?"

"Delicious." Qiao Jiajin nodded immediately and said, "Have you never eaten bear paws?"

"Have you eaten it?" Tiantian turned her head and asked.

"I was lucky enough to have eaten it once." Qiao Jiajin said, "I will never forget the taste. If I get out of here one day, I must eat it again."

Tiantian shook her head helplessly after hearing this: "You are really a desperado."

"Desperado?" Qiao Jiajin was amused, "Tiantian, are you stupid? It's not like I killed the bear myself, I can just eat it in a restaurant."

"Eating bear paws is illegal." Tiantian added, "No matter how delicious it is, what's the big deal? Do you want to go to the police for it?"

"What nonsense are you talking about." Qiao Jiajin looked at Tiantian with a little disdain, "When did eating bear paws become illegal?"

Tiantian frowned, always feeling that she and Qiao Jiajin sometimes got along well, and sometimes were not on the same channel.

"You really should go online more." Tiantian sighed, "Don't show your ignorance so naturally every time."

"Internet?" Qiao Jiajin scratched his head, "You mean... the "Internet" that emerged a few years ago? ”
