"Okay, the dishes are ready, you can eat. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info "Wang Yao walked out of the kitchen, put a large soup bowl in both hands and put it in the center of the table, and beckoned everyone to move chopsticks as he sat down.

There are five dishes and one soup on the table, full of portions, all made of mutated snail meat in different patterns, which is steaming at this time, and it makes people have an appetite to look at it on this cold winter day. Everyone was not polite, and immediately devoured it.

Since the end of the world to the present, a large amount of land has been wasted, coupled with serious soil pollution, the amount of vegetables, fruits and meat available for human consumption has become less and less over time, and the existing vegetables and fruits in each base cannot meet the demand at all, and the price of food has skyrocketed. Many people were starved to death as a result, and cannibalism was not uncommon.

At a time when human existence is facing such great challenges, the search for new sources of food has become a problem that must be solved for everyone.

It was also at this time that an exciting piece of news spread widely. It is said that mutant animals can remove toxins from their bodies after cooking at high temperatures, so they can be eaten with confidence.

Their flesh contains a substance similar to the crystal nucleus, and it is more conducive to human absorption than the crystal nucleus, the fresher and more advanced the mutant animal, the more concentrated this substance is contained in the body, ordinary people eat it is like a great tonic, and it is an advanced medicine for the supernatural.

This news is a boon for both ordinary people who want to fill their stomachs and those who are bent on improving their abilities. For a time, there was a craze for catching mutant animals everywhere.

But they soon discovered a problem.

Mutant animals are not so easy to catch, their bodies have undergone special modifications, and in terms of strength, they are naturally much higher than ordinary people, so it is impossible for a group of ordinary people to look for mutant animals with higher strength than them in places full of zombies.

For the supernatural, the substances contained in the low-level mutant animals that are conducive to their absorption are too few, and eating a small amount of them will not have much effect at all, and it is not much different from ordinary food. And the high-level ones are comparable to high-level zombies, and it is not so easy to capture, cook, and absorb them. So the craze quickly faded again.

But the problem of food shortage does exist, and knowing such a food source, how can ordinary people who have suffered from hunger easily let it go?

So a new means of livelihood came into being. After catching the mutant animal, the Adeptus takes out the crystal nucleus, and the remaining skin and flesh can be brought back and sold to the butcher, who will sell it to the general public. The price of these meats is not only low compared to ordinary meat, but also strengthens the body, and once they are sold, they are widely popular, and a series of problems caused by food have also been alleviated to a certain extent.

And the advanced mutant animals are completely different. Because they are extremely difficult to capture, and they have such an effect comparable to that of a special drug, they are naturally widely favored by the supernatural. As long as you catch it, you will generally consume it yourself, and few people are willing to sell it, so everything on the market will cause a rush, the higher the level, the fresher, the more delicious the meat, the more expensive the price, but even so, there are still countless people rushing to it.

For example, if a living third-order mutant animal is directly killed to take the crystal nucleus, it will only get a piece of the third-order crystal nucleus, but if the whole one is sold, the price will be several times or even more than ten times that of the third-order crystal nucleus.

Like Lin Luo, the mutant snail they ate today was the existence of the third-order top order. Mutant snails are a relatively common mutant animal in the surrounding area. They are known for their tender meat, which is a common ingredient in butchers' stalls, but there are very few such high-end products in the market.

Lin Luo and the others also found more than a dozen at once by chance, except for the three that needed to be taken out for the task, the rest of Lin Luo asked Wang Yao to put it away, ready for him to cook in the future.

Lin Luo sandwiched a piece of crystal clear mutated snail beef, put it in her mouth and chewed it slowly, and when she bit into it, the taste of juicy snail meat instantly filled her mouth, and the soft and tender taste with a hint of toughness made Lin Luo can't help but take a few more bites, and the depressed mood just now also disappeared in an instant under the attack of food.

Like a storm and clouds, the dishes on the table were wiped out by the combined efforts of the five people. Ling Chen touched his small belly with a satisfied face, raised his hand and wiped the greasy corners of his mouth, "Boss, since you have been off for the past few days, how about we go to the trading hall at night?" I heard that today is the big trading day of the trading hall, and I am sure that I can exchange a lot of good things. "When you are full of food and drink, you always have to find a place to have fun, life is complete, since he followed the boss, his living standard has risen sharply, and now it is not bad for money! Thinking comfortably in the early morning.

"I'm not going, I'm going to prepare tomorrow's ingredients after cleaning up the kitchen, you guys go." Wang Yao smiled, put a glass of water in front of everyone, and shook his head.

As soon as I heard it in the early morning, I was about to say something, but I heard Hua Hongsleeve also speak, "I'm not going either, it's snowing again at night, and it's cold, so I might as well go to sleep with my beauty sleep." After saying that, she gestured and touched her face, looking disgusted by Ling Chen's proposal.

Ling Chen drooped his face and turned his head to look at his brother.

"No, no." Ling Feng's answer was concise and to the point, but it expressed the same meaning as the others. I want to cry in the early morning without tears.

"You're so boring, boss, you're going to go."

Facing these eyes that shone with hope, Lin Luo nodded. Ecstasy in the early hours of the morning. Boss, what's wrong? This kind of person who usually doesn't like to join in the fun will actually agree to go with him, is it because he is too pitiful to see that he is alone, and he can't bear to decide to be his companion? The early hours of the morning were instantly moved.

"Just go and see if anyone sells tea."

As soon as Lin Luo spoke, Ling Ling immediately knew that he was being amorous, and sure enough, sympathy or something was on the boss, that is, floating clouds, floating clouds.

Soon, the two of them packed up and left the house. At this time, the snow outside was still falling, and the ground had been covered with a thick layer of snow, and people walked on it and made "squeak" and "squeak" sounds, leaving one footprint after another.

Because of Lin Luo, their residence is in the best location in the entire base, and the people around them are also high-level abilities, and the environment is relatively clean, so the location of the commercial activity area is relatively far away.

By the time the two of them arrived at the trading hall, there were already a lot of people gathered inside. The two of them pushed the door in, and they were immediately surrounded by a hot air, and the whole person felt a trace of warmth, which was in stark contrast to the cold outside.

The trading hall is divided into two parts, left and right, to meet the needs of different groups of people. On the left, most of the daily necessities are circulated, and ordinary items can be found here. On the right, there are mostly some precious items in circulation, which are generally a gathering place for the wealthy.

In addition to selling some items from the base, some vendors can also set up stalls here as long as they pay a certain fee. Compared with setting up stalls in the cold wind and cold night, the environment here is naturally much better, and the flow of people is not comparable to the sporadic retail investors outside.

As soon as Lin Luo and the others came in, they went straight to the right, whether it was the tea that Lin Luo wanted, or the things that he wanted to change in the early morning, they couldn't find anything on the left.

Lin Luo paid the entrance fee for ten first-level crystal nuclei, and the two of them entered its interior.

Sure enough, as Ling Chen said, because it was a big trading day, there were many more people inside than usual. Even the guards standing guard around were much larger than usual.

"Boss, let's go over there and have a look, there are the most people gathered there." Lin Luo doesn't usually come to this kind of place, so naturally he is not familiar with the road in the early morning. As soon as he entered the door, he saw a stall with significantly more people than other places in the early morning, and he was about to pass by with Lin Luo.

When they got closer, Ling Chen immediately bravely squeezed open a passage, and the two soon came to the front row, and naturally received a few dissatisfied looks. However, for the nervous Ling Chen and Lin Luo, who never cared about other people's thoughts, this sight was almost directly ignored by the two.

Because in order to walk around easily, the two of them were fully armed when they went out. A wide hat, a thick scarf, and a copper coin necklace that was deliberately hidden, after dressing up, the two were not recognized.

At this time, the two of them also saw clearly what was on the stall, which turned out to be a row of mutated animals of different types.

At one end of the stall, it is also supported by a wooden stick, and a striking red cloth towel is hung on it, which means that the stall is opened by the base, which means a bit "state-run" before the end of the world.

What the two didn't expect was that the three mutant snails they sent to the mission center were the most intense being coaxed by everyone now.

In the blink of an eye, the entire stall was sold out. Seeing the crowd gradually dissipating, the early morning who was watching the whole process couldn't help but speak, "Boss, these people are too crazy, it seems that our snail is still selling at a loss." ”

"Then take out the three soil and sell it?" Lin Luo glanced at him.

"Hehe, forget it, it's better to eat it in our own stomachs." Ling Chen immediately shook his head. Just kidding, that's his ration, and he can't bear it.

Next, Lin Luo didn't go shopping with Ling Chen anymore, Ling Ling likes to join in the fun, and she is actually a quiet person, so she randomly picked a relatively deserted place to go shopping alone.

The whole trading hall is very large, Lin Luo is not in a hurry to find tea, but as a rare relaxation, when he meets a fancie, he will stop and take a look, stop and go, and walk around the stalls very slowly.

Today's precious objects are completely different from the traditional jewelry, antiques, jade, etc. before the end of the world, so the things displayed in these stalls are also varied. There are cigarettes, alcohol, beverages, candies, tea, chewing gum, canned food, well-preserved bacon and dried goods, knives and weapons, military equipment, etc., all of which are scarce items, and the price will naturally not be cheap.
