Ghoul

Chapter 8

Although it is after the end of the world, except for food, water and electricity, these houses basically have everything that should be there. After searching around the kitchen, Fang Xiaowei also found a few used empty bowls , and some packaging bags, Fang Xiaowei picked up these packaging bags that were still on the cooking table and looked at them, and found that there was a big "1" on them.

"Brother Ruan." Fang Xiaowei called to Ruan Lin who was sitting in the living room.

Ruan Lin walked over, and naturally saw the packing bag Fang Xiaowei was holding, "You found it here?"

Fang Xiaowei nodded, although he wanted to tell Brother Ruan that these things were placed on the cooking table in such a big way, it was not considered to be discovered, "What is this?" He humbly asked Ruan Lin for advice.

"Food specially sold to hunters." Ruan Lin took the packaging bag from Fang Xiaowei, pointing to the Arabic numeral 1 on it, "This represents Base No. [-]." He said to Fang Xiaowei, "Some hunters I will stay outside for a long time, so this kind of thing is suitable for preservation after all." He thought for a while, and added, "It's like compressed biscuits in the past."

Fang Xiaowei said oh, when he was in the base before, he ate the cheapest food, and he usually planted vegetables and watered them, so this kind of food that hunters eat was generally out of his reach.

"You can search here." Ruan Lin said to Fang Xiaowei, "Maybe there are other gains."

Sure enough, Fang Xiaowei searched for a while, and found an alcohol stove and two packages of food with the number 1 printed on it in the cabinet, which looked like compressed biscuits from the past. More precious, so he couldn't figure out how there was any excess food here.

Ruan Lin seemed to see the confusion in Fang Xiaowei's heart, "These people probably came to hunt sea beasts." He looked at the date of the things in Fang Xiaowei's hands, and found that they were still edible, "Usually to prevent accidents, such as things If you lose something during the battle, you will put some emergency supplies in these temporary residences..." Ruan Lin didn't continue talking here.

For a moment, Fang Xiaowei thought about the dust on the wrapping paper he saw just now, why these things were left here, why these people didn't come back... It seemed that the answer couldn't be more obvious.

Ruan Lin returned to the living room after answering Fang Xiaowei's question.

After Fang Xiaowei stared at the food for a while and was silent for a while, he didn't think about these problems at all. After he found some drinking water in other places, he took the loot he just found from the first floor and the contents of the bag, Chop it all up and add water to the pot.

Then he lit the alcohol stove. Before, he was still thinking about how to cook, but now he didn’t have to worry about this problem at all. After some things were figured out, Fang Xiaowei started humming an out-of-key song again, using the kitchen Spoon, cooking a suspicious-looking mush in his own pot.

But after a while, all the pot was ready, and he happily brought it to Brother Ruan.

Brother Ruan glanced at the contents of the pot. Although he didn't ask, he probably knew what was in the pot.

"Don't worry, I chopped it all up." Fang Xiaowei said sweetly. He looked at the mush in his pot. He brought it up after he confirmed that he could never identify the raw materials. "This road is full of zombies. Both." He reminded Ruan Lin.

Ruan Lin knew that Fang Xiaowei had good intentions, so he ate a few mouthfuls with the spoon that Fang Xiaowei handed to him, but before he stuffed the paste into his mouth, his movements stopped, Fang Xiaowei looked at him suspiciously .

Ruan Lin covered his mouth, he would rather eat those zombies than eat this kind of mush!

Seeing Ruan Lin's expression of swallowing arsenic, Fang Xiaowei also took a mouthful and stuffed it into his mouth, not thinking there was any problem.

"What did you put in it?" Ruan Lin asked heavily after swallowing the thing in his mouth.

"...Just, that biscuit, the heart..." Before Fang Xiaowei finished speaking, Ruan Lin raised his hand to stop him, "Stop, I'm asking about the seasoning." Of course he knew what the ingredients were.

"Salt."

Ruan Lin looked at Fang Xiaowei.

"...and sugar."

Ruan Lin still looked at him and didn't speak.

Seeing Ruan Lin's expression, all the hairs on Fang Xiaowei's back stood up, "As well as monosodium glutamate soy sauce and oyster sauce... I put one of everything I saw in it." Fang Xiaowei said quickly.

"...How did you think of putting these?" Ruan Lin was puzzled by this, he really wanted to know what Fang Xiaowei was thinking, and put all these things in.

"I'm afraid you might find it fishy." Fang Xiaowei said confidently, and when he said this, he took another sip, "It's okay."

Ruan Lin looked at Fang Xiaowei with a strange expression, "How do you feel about eating those... um, what does it feel like?" He asked, thinking that Fang Xiaowei should understand what he was talking about.

It's just unfortunate that Fang Xiaowei is now thinking on his butt, so he must understand what he is referring to, "What are you talking about? Brother Ruan?"

"Those things on the zombies." Ruan Lin said.

"Oh, I don't feel anything." When Fang Xiaowei said this, he also sensed something was wrong. He walked around the kitchen in disbelief, dug a spoonful of salt, took another sip of soy sauce, and finally stared blankly. In situ.

"There's something wrong with your sense of taste." Ruan Lin, who followed Fang Xiaowei in, said, looking at Fang Xiaowei who looked like he wanted to cry and laugh at the same time.

Fang Xiaowei dug another spoonful of salt and stuffed it into his mouth.

He still couldn't taste it.

It shouldn't be, Fang Xiaowei looked blankly at the salt shaker in his hand, obviously, when he just woke up, he could still feel other smells, he still remembered the smell of pancakes in the hand of the flat-headed brother, why now Is it gone?

Although he knew that he was no longer human, this gradual change still shocked him. He was afraid, afraid that when he woke up tomorrow morning, he would have really turned into another monster.

It is not death that is frightening, but the process of waiting for death.

This sentence suddenly appeared in Fang Xiaowei's head. He felt like a person waiting to die. Before he felt that he changed, he changed. When he woke up, he didn't feel much. The big deal is that the food he ate was different. up.

But now this gradual change is unacceptable to him.

He didn't know what would happen to him next, whether he would grow scales, or his eyes would become three or four. He knew it was wrong, but he couldn't help but think wildly.

Ruan Lin sensitively sensed something was wrong with Fang Xiaowei, he lowered his eyes, and pressed Fang Xiaowei's shoulder.

Fang Xiaowei looked back at Ruan Lin, and called Ruan Brother with a mournful face.

Ruan Lin wiped Fang Xiaowei's face, "It's okay." He said.

In fact, Ruan Lin's words were not consoling at all, but when Fang Xiaowei heard the "It's okay", his mood calmed down strangely, and even strange thoughts began to turn in his head, such as——

Why didn't Brother Ruan hold him tightly in his arms to comfort him?

"Brother Ruan." Fang Xiaowei's eyes widened, showing a weeping expression, then secretly squeezed himself into Ruan Lin's arms, and then hugged Ruan Lin's waist.

Ruan Lin originally wanted to throw away the monkey that was entangled him, but when he heard his whimpering and crying, he paused, and finally said, "It's okay."

Fang Xiaowei laughed triumphantly.

In the end, the pot of glutinous rice still belonged to Fang Xiaowei, as for Ruan Lin?

He went out with his long knife, cut up some zombies and came back, lit the alcohol stove, asked Fang Xiaowei to slice the things, and then ate barbecue.

"This is the last time." While eating, Ruan Lin said to himself from the bottom of his heart. He glanced at the joyous Fang Xiaowei next to him, with a complicated expression. He pulled out the necklace around his neck. There was a pendant at the bottom of the necklace, and opened it. After that is a small photo.

There are only two people in the photo.

A man, and the ordinary-looking little boy beside him.
