There is one more person and luggage in the car, and there are six more canvas bag crystal cores. The space for storing supplies is greatly reduced. It is probably impossible to hide the carry-on space in front of new members.
But Shen Shi'an has not yet fully trusted Liu Fangzhou, and he still has doubts about the direct exposure of the space, so he entrusts Shen Xun with the task of how to deal with this matter.
On the night when Liu Fangzhou got in the car, Shen Shi'an chose a place near the water source with flat terrain and stopped the car. After the four of them sat around the bonfire and ate instant noodles with Shen's exclusive "Gathering of Heroes" tomato soup, Shen Shi'an boiled the water, Chen Nan washed the dishes, Shen Xun touched his chubby belly, and stood up holding the Tang knife Said to Liu Fangzhou: "Come here, I have something to tell you."
Three minutes later, the two came back. Liu Fangzhou trembled with tears in his eyes, and was bitten again on the finger of his left hand. The child held his head high, and excitedly ran to claim credit for Shen Shi'an: "An'an, I have solved it all! I guarantee that he will not ask or talk nonsense!"
Shen Shi'an rubbed his head: "That's great, the water is hot, ready to take a bath."
Turning to look at the young man sitting beside the fire with his knees in his arms, he walked over and handed him a band-aid, and then took out a pot of bright red strawberries from the space: "Do you want to eat it?"
"Eat!" The instinctive real reaction blurted out again.
It's hypocritical to say it all. Liu Fangzhou picked up one and took a bite: "Damn it, it's so sweet!"
After eating delicious food, Shen Xun quickly left behind the psychological shadow brought by him: In the last days, the most important thing is to have something to eat, who cares whether there are supernatural powers or not.
At night, Shen Shi'an slept in the car with the children as usual, and Liu Fangzhou and Chen Nan slept in the tent together.
It was the first time for Liu Fangzhou to sleep in the wild. Facing the breeze blowing and the starry sky, he was very excited. While helping to set up the tent, he twittered endlessly: "Are there mosquitoes at night? Do you want to apply some toilet water? Insect repellent powder is also needed." Sprinkle a little? What if bugs get in? Do you snore while sleeping? Don’t you have athlete’s foot? Hey, why is there something moving in your bag... "
"Don't touch it!" Chen Nan hurriedly wanted to stop it, but it was too late.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" An earth-shattering scream pierced the silence in the wilderness, Liu Fangzhou's face was pale, and he crawled out of the tent that had just been half erected: "Brother Shen, help me!"
Shen Shi'an pressed the car window: "What's wrong?"
"Head, head, head..." Liu Fangzhou struggled for a long time and finally found his voice: "There is a zombie head in his bag!"
Shen Shi'an looked at Chen Nan: "You haven't told him yet?"
Chen Nandao: "He has sensory abilities, I thought he had already guessed it."
That's it. Shen Shi'an nodded: "Just get used to it in the future. Go to bed early and call me if you need something."
Chen Nan said: "Hey, good night, brother Shen."
The calm and nonchalant conversation between the two made Liu Fangzhou flustered: Guess it? Guess what? He did sense a gray mass next to the green light representing Chen Nan, but he always thought it was because of the other party's ability or something wrong with the person himself. Who would have guessed that he hid a zombie's head in his bag!
How do you get used to this? Do you have to stay with this head in the future? And he has just been so stimulated, is there no one to comfort him? !
Seeing that Shen Shi'an closed the car window and turned off the lights, and Chen Nan set up the tent and got in, Liu Fangzhou was filled with grief and indignation: I have made friends with a group of perverts!
Then he stomped his feet and regretted: Oh, the zombie can still live if its head is cut off, how could he forget about it. If I had known that I would have brought one with me, it would be great to be able to dissect and study it at any time, alas, I made a mistake.
Since the end of the world broke out and he took his children on a journey, Shen Shi'an's concept of the date has become more and more vague. Many times, he needs to take his mobile phone out of the space to know what month and day of the week it is.
I happened to find a calendar when I was collecting supplies in the county seat. There are 365 sheets in total. One sheet represents a date. It was placed on the dashboard shelf in front of the driver's seat. Shen Xun volunteered to tear off one sheet every night before going to bed. , is simple and easy to remember.
Waking up at six o'clock in the morning, Shen Shi'an stood outside the car door shaking the blanket twice and folded it. His eyes glanced at the calendar inadvertently, only to realize that today is June 1st, Children's Day.
"Today is your holiday." During the meal, Shen Shi'an added two slices of ham and a fried egg to the child's sandwich, and poured him a glass of strawberry milkshake: "Happy holiday, is there anything you want to do? "
Just about to refute that he is not a child, Shen Xun's eyes lit up: "You can do anything!"
Shen Shi'an thought about it carefully: "You can do three things at will, but you are not allowed to make trouble for no reason, you are not allowed to put yourself in a dangerous situation, and you are not allowed to soak in hot springs."
The last point, Chen Nan and the two of them were puzzled, but Shen Xun understood, and immediately lowered his head that had been raised high.
"...It's useless to pretend to be pitiful."
Shen Shi'an's hard-working heart softened within three minutes, and he took the child to the other side of the off-road vehicle: "It's not that I don't want you to soak, but the spring has been dry twice in a row. If we let it dry up again, it may cause irreparable damage. Do you know how important Lingquan water is to us? If the spring reaches the point where it cannot be repaired by absorbing crystal nuclei, the two of us are equal to each other. I lost the biggest hole card. I promise you, wait for the spring to calm down and rest for a while, and it will not be as delicate as it is now, so I will definitely soak it for you, okay?"
Although he didn't want to be treated like a child, Shen Xun quite enjoyed the feeling of being gently coaxed by Shen Shi'an. He stretched out his arms and hugged his neck: "Then besides soaking in the hot spring, I can still do three things, right?"
"certainly."
Shen Xun giggled twice, and kissed him on the face: "This is the first one." Without waiting for Shen Shi'an's reaction, he said again: "The second one is that An'an wants to kiss me too."
Looking at him, Shen Shi'an felt that there was nowhere to express the tenderness of a loving father who was full of "there is no need for a husband to have a son", so he lowered his head and kissed him deeply on the cheek: "Oh wood!"
Compared to Shen Xun's high spirits, who spent the whole day planning the third thing to do, Chen Nan and Liu Fangzhou didn't have any ideas about Children's Day: they are both adults, and Children's Day was celebrated eight hundred years ago. Just don't join in the excitement of children.
After resting in the evening of this day, Shen Shi’an took out a whole set of barbecue grills from the space according to the child’s request—like the calendar, he found it when searching for supplies in the county, and took out goose meat, goose wings, goose claws, and foie gras. As well as all kinds of fruit and vegetable ingredients, they were piled up on the dining table in several piles. Seeing this posture, Liu Fangzhou was the first to bear it, and rubbed his hands and walked to the side of Shen Shi'an: "Brother Shen, what, these are all prepared for Brother Xun of?"
Before Shen Shi'an could speak, Shen Xun bared his teeth fiercely: "I celebrate Children's Day! Go away!"
Food is inspiring. Liu Fangzhou bypassed Shen Xun and approached Shen Shi'an from another direction: "Actually, I'm still a baby."
Chen Nan coughed, followed closely behind: "... I still have three months to come of age."
We also thought about Children's Day.
Shen Shi'an stared at the two of them for a long time, and before Shen Xun cannibalized, each of them handed over a kitchen knife: "Work."
After more than an hour, the goose meat was roasted golden, the goose feet were stewed crispy, the foie gras was sizzling on the iron plate, and the goose wings exuded the sweet fragrance of honey...
Chen Nan and the two swallowed their saliva, and when the child finally let go under Shen Shi'an's persuasion, he immediately rushed towards them to take a piece of meat.
"Hiss... delicious... hiss... so delicious..." Chen Nan was so hot that he breathed desperately, but still couldn't bear to stop: "Brother Shen, is this really goose meat? It's too big." Just one wing The tip takes up the entire grill. But then again, he really couldn't imagine any bird with such big wings.
Shen Shi'an fed the child a spoonful of soup and nodded: "The geese that Xun Xun and I met have mutated, each one is more than ten meters high and weighs more than a ton."
Liu Fangzhou said: "Mutated goose? There won't be a virus, right?" The question was asked like this, and the speed of eating meat did not slow down at all.
Shen Shi'an said: "Besides the change in size, the goose has no other mutations, and there is no sign of zombification. I think that either the virus has different effects on humans and animals, or the mutated goose is not caused by the zombie virus. changed."
After thinking about it for a while, Chen Nan and the others felt that it made sense: they had never seen a zombie animal in such a long time in the last days. Maybe animals don't turn into zombies at all.
Besides, no matter what kind of virus is roasted by the fire, can it still survive? Eat as much as you have!
Shen Shi'an and Shen Xun have been able to add meals from time to time since the end of the world, and the standard of food has not changed much compared to before the end of the world. But Chen Nan and the two of them really haven't eaten meat in the past two months, especially Liu Fangzhou, who ate instant noodles last night and thought it was terribly delicious, and now he can't wait to grow ten mouths.
The four of them ate around the bonfire, and even took out the mutated goose egg weighing more than 20 kilograms. After Chen Nan and Liu Fangzhou repeatedly watched it with amazement, Shen Shi'an split it open with a long sword, put it in a rice cooker and stirred it evenly. , fry the omelet with the hot goose oil on the iron plate, wrap it with shredded cucumber, shredded ham, and roasted shredded goose, and then brush with a layer of fragrant barbecue sauce, put it in your mouth and take a bite:
"Ah," Liu Fangzhou wiped away the tears from his eyes: "It's such a happy day."
At this time, the boy didn't know that for him, the happy days of eating delicious food in different ways would soon come to an end.
At noon on the fifth day after a new member was added, Shen Shi'an set up a hot pot, cooked rice with Chen Nan's assistance, made braised pork, sweet and spicy fried chicken, tomato fish ball soup, sweet and sour pork ribs, and stir-fried vegetables And garlic broccoli, plus a seaweed egg soup.
Liu Fangzhou started to swallow a long time ago, and finally waited until the food was served, and when he washed his hands and was about to take the bowl, Shen Shi'an handed him a bag of crispy noodles and a bag of plain bread: "You eat this."
Liu Fangzhou was stunned: "Why!"
Shen Shi'an said: "Because you didn't pay the food expenses, you get three crystal nuclei every day."
"But, but," the boy said in a hurry, "but I helped survey the surrounding environment! Brother Shen, tell yourself, have we not encountered a large-scale zombie group these days!"
Shen Shi'an nodded: "That's right. So I will carry you for free, provide you with food and drink, and provide you with a set of necessary supplies. But unless you pay for food, you can only eat portable packaged food every day."
If it was placed five days ago, then Liu Fangzhou didn't care at all: he hid at home and ate portable packaged food for nearly two months, so he still lived well. The end of the world is difficult, and some food is good.
But after eating Shen Shi’an’s handicrafts for five consecutive days, every day the meat and vegetables are matched with color and fragrance, and the taste is so good that he can’t wait to make himself dead, and then let him give up the hot white rice mixed with broth and whole goose barbecue feast, and turn back to eat dry Who can stand the bread!
Liu Fangzhou racked his brains and thought for a long time but couldn't think of a solution. Seeing that Chen Nan had already started filling the rice, he immediately raised his finger to him: "Then why can he eat it!"
"He paid for food, three pills a day, a lot at a time."
"But I don't have crystal nuclei!" Shen Shi'an and the others did pay him dozens of crystal nuclei when they stayed overnight, but they were all absorbed by him yesterday when he had nothing to do. He never thought that there would be food expenses. It's okay, even if you want to pay it now, there's no way.
"You can get the crystal nucleus by killing zombies." Shen Shi'an looked at him calmly: "Didn't you say that there are five mutated zombies within a range of 500 meters? No need to pay any more."
Liu Fangzhou's face flushed red: "But, but I dare not kill zombies."
"It doesn't matter, then you can eat crispy noodles and bread, the quantity is enough. Do you want ham sausage or eight-treasure porridge? I also have these."
Shen Xun held a sea bowl bigger than his face, poured five spoonfuls of braised pork broth on the rice, added a few ribs and a few fish balls, and it was delicious.
Liu Fangzhou breathed the rich aroma of food in the air, and said angrily: "I want to go home!" Once I'm gone, let's see who can help you feel the zombies!
"Okay," Shen Shi'an nodded, put the bread and crispy noodles on the ground beside him, and scooped a spoonful of broccoli for the child: "Go back." His expression seemed to be indifferent.
The ruthless words got this kind of response, and the young man was immediately persuaded: the journey went smoothly, and after driving the off-road vehicle for five days, it was already hundreds of kilometers away from Lin'an County. Even if he could go back, how long could he last in the face of having to compete with other survivors for supplies
Waiting for five days before asking for food expenses, brother Shen obviously calculated it, this is too bullying!
The more Liu Fangzhou thought about it, the more wronged he became. He wiped his eyes, ran to the other side of the off-road vehicle angrily, sat on the ground and pulled weeds vigorously.
Chen Nan quickly took a few mouthfuls of rice, put down the bowl and said to Shen Shi'an, "I'll go find him." Then he picked up the bread and crispy noodles, found Liu Fangzhou and sat beside him.
Liu Fangzhou glared at him, turned his head away from him, and said in a muffled voice, "Why are you here, are you watching my joke?"
Chen Nan straightened one leg, and put two bags of food by his hand: "You are much smarter than me, you should know that Brother Shen didn't mean to make things difficult for you, he did it for your own good. Since the outbreak of the virus, you have stayed at home, I haven't had much contact with zombies, nor have I had much contact with survivors. I have eaten, clothed and suffered. I don't know what the outside world is like now. Before I met Brother Shen, I saw a man with my own eyes, just to grab A bag of biscuits pushed a girl next to him down from the second floor of the supermarket. In order to escape from the crowd of zombies, someone stabbed his companion and kept the other party still in place to attract zombies—desperate to live, this This is the true face of the end times. Have you ever thought about what would happen if it wasn't us but other malicious people you put into your home that night?"
Liu Fangzhou sniffed, "I'm not stupid! I'll dissect anyone who dares to mess with me!"
Chen Nan laughed: "For dissection, you must subdue the opponent first. With your small body that can be pushed down, you don't even dare to kill ordinary zombies. Which one can you subdue?" Sighed softly, and said earnestly "You know we're going to the capital, right? It's a long way, even with your abilities, it's impossible to never miss zombies. When the day comes when you're cornered, what are you going to do? Brother Shen It's really powerful, but he can't always protect your safety. If you have to face the zombies yourself, are you going to say "I dare not kill you, please let me go"? Zombies may I think you are too funny, so I will bite you more."
"Pfft." Liu Fangzhou couldn't hold back, and blew out a snot bubble, and quickly turned around and took out a tissue to blow his nose. After a while, he turned back and looked at Chen Nan with red eyes: "Then what should I do? I have never killed a zombie before. It was pure luck that I caught one for dissection. If I really want to fight, where do I start?" Do not know at all."
"Battle experience needs to be accumulated, and it will be enough if you practice more. Don't worry, Brother Shen hopes that you will become stronger and have the ability to protect yourself, not that you will die. If you are really determined to kill zombies, I will I will go with you and start with ordinary zombies first."
"Ordinary zombies don't have crystal nuclei, so what about the food expenses?"
"Well, actually, Brother Shen accepts credit."
Liu Fangzhou stared, quickly got up from the ground and ran back: "Brother Shen, can I pay you on credit for a day first! Save some braised pork for me!!"
