The autumn wind is cool, the moonlight is like water, and the river breeze comes slowly, causing thousands of ripples on the river surface.
Li Jiayu, Platycodon grandiflorum, and Ran Hongxia sat on the ground around a pile of insect fires. The firelight danced gracefully, and the red firelight emitted made the three young people feel like they were in a dream.
"Jiayu, this is the last insect meat. After eating it this time, there will be no more stock. Hey, I don't know when I will encounter another Shuiyin Jiaoworm..."
Ran Hongxia sighed, teasing the insect fire with one hand, and stuffing the skewers of insect meat into her mouth with the other hand, chewing it carefully. Her delicate lips were shiny with oil, which was really tempting, but Ran Hongxia The willow eyebrows that were as curved as a crescent moon couldn't help but frown. There was nothing I could do about it. The meat of the Shuiyin Jiaoworm was so fishy and bitter that it was hard to swallow.
"Shuiyin Jiaoworm is not a fool, how can he wash his neck every day and wait for you to kill it and eat the meat?" Li Jiayu sneered, looked at Ran Hongxia with some fun, and said casually: "Isn't there a lot of fish in Chu Xiang's place? It seems that we caught a few mandarin fish and sea bass just now, and they taste quite delicious. As the president of the student council and the captain of the school guard, you refused to eat the delicious fish meat and chose to nibble on the stale and spoiled insect meat. You said you How much do you want to be a bitch?"
Ran Hongxia wiped her mouth with a leaf aggrievedly, and murmured softly: "I can endure hardship, and my physique is much better than them... You also know that these insect meats have become somewhat odorless and spoiled after three days. It's much more unpalatable when fresh and they can't eat it at all, but these insect meats are rare and contain rich calories and nutrients, so they must not be wasted... "
"Yes, yes, so you, a girl with a big stomach, volunteered to eat all the remaining three kilograms of insect meat? Ran Hongxia, I'm very surprised, why do you like to abuse yourself so much? Don't you know that eating insect meat is too much? Is it bad for your health? You obviously have absolute strength, but why do you always give good things to others? Don’t think I don’t know. Every time you eat, you secretly save a small portion, and then Take it secretly at night to the people outside who are about to starve to death..." Li Jiayu suddenly looked at Ran Hongxia with an unkind expression and said in a deep voice.
"I'm the Sword Master... The Sword Master's physique is very good. I'm not afraid of the trace toxins in the insect meat... Actually, there is no need to worry about so much in the last days. It's already very difficult to fill your stomach. Eat delicious food. Aren't they all the same? As for saving a small amount of food to give to others, well, it's really not a lot. If I eat one less steamed bun, I can save one person's life, right..." Ran Hongxia straightened her hair and said to Li Jiayu Smile slightly, that smile is pure and beautiful, exuding the pure brilliance of truth, goodness and beauty, just like a spring flower in full bloom.
Li Jiayu and Platycodon looked at each other, and couldn't help but sigh. He was completely helpless with Ran Hongxia. This stupid woman would rather suffer herself than help others. I really don't know what to say to her, although she can't help herself these days. He didn't do good deeds at the expense of everyone's interests, but for some reason, Li Jiayu felt quite uncomfortable when he saw Dian Hongxia choking on the bitter smell of insect meat and coughing.
I really don’t know how this girl grew up to be a quasi-legendary master... Is it really worth it for her to always wrong herself
How on earth do such people survive for several years in the apocalypse
The more he came into contact with Ran Hongxia, the less Li Jiayu could see through Ran Hongxia. At first, he thought his fate was rough enough, but looking at it now, Ran Hongxia must have had a hard life in her last life. Li Jiayu I don’t understand, five years later, Ran Hongxia has completely matured and turned into a beauty even more beautiful than Xiao Wanqing, and she has such strong strength, but why doesn’t she choose an easy path? Why must she? Putting so much responsibility on your shoulders...
"Don't look at me like this, okay... It's not a big deal if I almost eat. The most important thing is that I'm very open in my heart. You think I'm pitiful, but actually I think this is what I should do... "Rian Hongxia took another bite of insect meat, and the fat dripped on the soil, making a soft sound.
"Hongxia... don't feel too sorry for yourself. Look, you don't look as good as before... Hey, I think what Jiayu said is correct. The end of the world is very cruel. You can help for a while, but you can't help for the rest of your life. The weak will eat the strong. "Survival of the fittest is the unchanging melody of the apocalypse. No matter how hard you try to let everyone live together, you will still have to face the same result in the end. The only difference is that some people struggle a little longer..." Kikyo can see it. More thorough than Ran Hongxia, it doesn't mean that she has become cold-blooded, it's just that she wants to say something harsh to remind Ran Hongxia. Moreover, she has been spending time with Li Jiayu day and night in the past few days, and has been slightly assimilated by Li Jiayu's thoughts.
"It's okay, don't worry, I rarely send out messages of justice anymore..." Ran Hongxia swallowed the last piece of insect meat, with a hint of discomfort between her brows, and she quickly covered her throat to prevent herself from being bitten by the fishy smell. The smell of meat was so irritating that she vomited it out. Kikyo realized something was wrong and quickly gave her a glass of water. After Ran Hongxia drank the water, she felt a little better, but her lips were a little pale. She forced a smile and laughed at herself:
"Sure enough, it was still too reluctant... However, the insect meat was not wasted at all, and I finally finished it..."
"Hongxia, why are you doing this... You've wronged yourself so much..." Kikyo sighed and gently patted Ran Hongxia's back to straighten her breathing.
"It's okay. I'm lucky to have meat to eat... Many people eat the roots of lawn trees. I heard that someone accidentally ate poisonous mushrooms the day before yesterday and died because they didn't rescue them in time. Yesterday morning, a couple discovered There was a nest of bird eggs. As soon as they climbed up the tree and took them out, they were immediately robbed by a group of people. In the end, both the couple were beaten with bruises... At noon today, people from the food factory caught a wild boar, which caused a great stir. There was a big internal fight, and many people were red-faced. Later, there was a big fight. Many people were beaten to death. I heard that several people died... In the evening, an old man discovered a wild tree vine leaf. , and took out a lot of sweet potatoes from the ground, but before he could eat them, someone came to grab them again. The old man’s daughter-in-law and grandson tried their best to protect the food, but in the chaos, someone actually stabbed the mother and son to death. , leaving only the lonely old man crying and blinding his eyes... "
Ran Hongxia sighed while speaking. She raised her head, stared at Li Jiayu with her dark and shiny eyes, and asked in confusion:
"Jiayu, now there is no pressure from insects, but people are encountering a great famine, and everyone is facing a food crisis... Although I had expected that such a day would come, I still feel puzzled why there is a famine. In front of us, people will become so selfish and greedy. Can even a once close friend be ruthless? Can friendship, family affection, and love be so unable to withstand the test in front of a mere sweet potato or a box of biscuits? Don’t skip words.
Li Jiayu spread his hands and said helplessly: "...How do you want me to answer? I'm not a sociologist, how can I explain it to you? In fact, you also understand in your heart that people are inherently selfish creatures. What's more, people who are in a state of hunger can do anything. Now this is just childish. In the future, someone will be so hungry that they even dare to eat human flesh... "
Hearing this, Ran Hongxia lowered her head sadly. She knew that Li Jiayu was telling the truth, because if this situation continues, human flesh will definitely become an important source of food...
"Stop talking about these topics. Hey, Hongxia, these are freshly roasted sweet potatoes. You can eat them while they are hot. I know you must not be full, so I specially left the sweet potatoes for you..." Platycodon cautiously walked away from the insect fire. Picking up the roasted sweet potato, she was not afraid of burning it. She directly wrapped her fingers with a layer of energy, then peeled off the skin of the sweet potato, revealing the tender and rosy sweet potato flesh. The air was suddenly filled with a rich and sweet taste, which made her greedy. Deran Hongxia quickly took it and took a big bite, eating it very happily.
"It's so delicious. Sweet potatoes are much more delicious than insect meat. Wow, I'm really worried that after eating this sweet potato, I won't be able to eat grass roots and tree bark anymore..." Ran Hongxia's face was full of happiness, and she chewed quickly. It's no wonder that she forced herself to eat fishy and astringent insect meat for three days, which was naturally very hard.
"From now on, Hongxia, don't treat yourself so badly. I am the daughter of nature, and Jiayu is the Pope of Light. If the two of us work together, we can ripen a large number of plants and produce one or two hundred kilograms of sweet potatoes and potatoes. Difficult matter..." Kikyo smiled.
"Well, you're right... I want to be kind to myself." Platycodon kept the small piece of sweet potato leftover, suddenly blinked, looked at Li Jiayu and Platycodon with a strange expression, and asked:
"Ahem... You guys always sleep together at night. How far has it gone?"
"No, it's nothing..." Kikyo denied quickly, but Li Jiayu nodded honestly, looked at Ran Hongxia with some mockery, and sneered:
"We are already a couple. Haven't you noticed that Kikyo has become a lot plumper and mature these days? Don't skip the word.
"Jiayu, don't talk nonsense..." Kikyo said reproachfully and glared at him angrily. Li Jiayu clearly meant to misunderstand Ran Hongxia.
Although Kikyo denied it, Ran Hongxia was still dubious. She took a deep breath and then smiled. That smile was beautiful and sincere: "Really, Jiayu, you must treat Kikyo well, she I'm too sensitive and weak to withstand your torment."
After saying that, Ran Hongxia stood up and left here. She was in a daze as she walked, but she felt a little uncomfortable because of the emptiness in her heart. Her good friend Platycodon grandiflorum was already with Li Jiayu, so what about her, when can she be with her beloved? They were together, but her and Li Jiayu's beliefs were incompatible, and Li Jiayu had a vague dislike for her. She knew that Li Jiayu only had extravagant hopes for her.
