According to the rules of the gathering place, there is no relief food after the age of eight.

If you want to get food, you need to do things for the gathering place.

What exactly to do depends on the distribution of the logistics office of the gathering place.

In the case of not much work, it is natural to give priority to those powerful adults.

As for a little girl like Yaya, who has just passed her age, it is impossible to arrange work unless she is busy.

After all, food is limited, and it must be maximized to make use of it in order to make a reasonable system.

Somewhat inhumane.

But are you preaching humanity in the last days?

"My brother can give you something to eat, but you have to do something for him."

Understanding the process, Lin Xuan planned to reach out and pull this little girl.

However, he didn't give the other party food directly, but asked the other party to help, not wanting the other party to develop the habit of reaching out and asking for it.

In this kind of world where people eat people, reaching out and asking people is undoubtedly the most inferior way, after all, most people are frugal, who has that extra food for others.

"Huh? What does Big Brother want me to do? ”

Yaya was stunned when she heard this, and there was a trace of vigilance in her expression.

"It's easy for you to do something."

Seeing this, Lin Xuan smiled slightly and said, "It's my brother who gives you the ingredients, and you help your brother cook a delicious breakfast." ”

"Help make breakfast?"

Yaya blinked, this need to do something was somewhat unexpected, and it can be said that she didn't think it would be so simple.

"yes, would you like to do it?"

Lin Xuan smiled, feeling that this little girl was still quite funny, especially with a pair of clear big eyes that looked very beautiful.

Yaya didn't answer immediately, but thought for a while before replying: "Yaya is willing, but Yaya is afraid that the breakfast she makes is not delicious..."

Food is very precious now, and if it is wasted, it is not a trivial matter, and when the time comes, let alone getting paid, your life may be lost.

In this cruel era, even a nine-year-old girl knows how to think about it.

"Don't worry."

Lin Xuan touched the other party's head with a kind smile: "Brother's requirements are very low, as long as you don't burn it into coals." ”

"Really?!"

Yaya was happy when she heard it, she could definitely do it if she looked like this.

"Of course!"

Lin Xuan said with a serious face: "I, Lin Xuan, will never lie, especially with a child. ”

"Great!"

Yaya clapped her hands happily, then pulled Lin Xuan's clothes and ran forward.

Lin Xuan asked as he ran, "Little sister, where are you going to take your brother?" ”

"Go to Yaya's house, otherwise Yaya will make a delicious breakfast for her big brother."

The girl didn't reply, and the bouncing appearance showed that she was very happy in her heart.

"Hehe, go to your house?"

Lin Xuan smiled faintly, looking at the little girl's gaze with a hint of inexplicable color, and followed unhurriedly.

The houses here are more cluttered than they look from the outside, one from one east to the other, and some places still need to be sideways to walk through.

If a fire breaks out in a place like this, there really isn't even a place to run.

It was a dirty and messy place, Lin Xuan was unwilling to settle here, and he didn't know how far worse it was than the place where he had lived for a few years before.

I saw a lot of people along the way, but there were fewer than I imagined, and I don't know if some people were busy, or if there were only so many people.

However, although there are few people, there are all kinds of people, and some skinny people still seem to have green light in their eyes.

Seeing the little girl passing by, they looked eager to try, but when they saw Lin Xuan with a rifle on his back, they shrank back again.

At that moment, Lin Xuan knew that this group of people was playing some terrible ideas.

"Brother, this is Yaya's home."

After passing through the dense houses, Yaya and Lin Xuan stopped in a low room made of wooden planks and snakeskin bags.

This one is not so much a house as a simple wooden tent, too basic.

It is also the edge of the residential area, which used to be dense woods, and the woods used to be the walls of the gathering place.

"Where do you live?"

Lin Xuan looked around, feeling that the danger factor here was not small, after all, if something went wrong in the gathering place, this edge would definitely be the first to suffer.

In the dense woods, no one knows what rushed out, and some poisonous insects and the like are no less threatening than zombies.

And the fence, which is only a few meters high, can really stop all the dangers outside?

"Well, Yaya's house is here."

The little girl nodded in reply, and with a smile she turned and lifted the snakeskin bag curtain of the low shack: "Mom, I'm back." ”

When she returned home with the good news, she was the first thing she wanted to share with her mother.

As soon as the voice fell, a weak cry came from inside: "Why are you so disobedient!" Didn't Mom tell you not to go out? What to do if you meet a bad guy? Ahem..."

In the middle of speaking, the speaker coughed violently.

"Mom, don't be angry, lie down and rest, Yaya will listen to you in the future."

was complained by her mother, Yaya's first reaction was not to be wronged, but to ask her mother not to be angry and pay attention to rest.

Lin Xuan's pupils flickered slightly, and he opened the curtain and walked in with his head down.

Yaya's mother was a young woman in her thirties, and her coordinated facial features must have been a beautiful woman before the disaster, but now she looks like a yellow-faced village woman.

Dry and disheveled hair, a skinny body, and a sick illness are completely out of touch with the word beautiful young woman.

At this time, she was lying on a wooden bed made of wooden planks, and the maid who had just run in was pulling a thin quilt to cover it.

As soon as Lin Xuan lowered her head and walked in, she immediately looked up vigilantly.

"Who are you? Why did you break into my house in violation of the rules of the gathering place, aren't you afraid that the guards will punish you?! ”

Before Lin Xuan could say anything, he was scolded by the woman, her originally weak face was full of fierceness at this moment, and her arm instinctively protected her daughter.

"Mom, you don't have to worry."

Yaya struggled to show her head, and said with a hint of joy: "This big brother was brought back by me, he is not a bad person." ”

"You brought it back?"

The woman's face turned cold when she heard this: "Are you trying to anger your mother?" How many times have I told you you you can't bring a stranger home?! ”

Strangers at the gathering place cannot break into someone's house without the consent of the owner, otherwise they will violate the rules of the gathering place and will be punished by the guards.

But if your master brings it in himself, it won't be considered a violation of the rules.

"I...."

Yaya was speechless when she was drunk, and her dirty face was full of grievances.

Seeing this, Lin Xuan smiled, stepped forward with a kind smile and said, "Eldest sister, don't be angry, I'm not a bad person." ”

The woman swept the gun that Lin Xuan was carrying and did not speak, but judging from her expression, she obviously did not believe it.

"Mom..."

"Don't talk! Ahem~"

The girl wanted to speak, but before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted by the woman, who coughed violently again because of her emotion.

She didn't have any serious illness, just a slightly more focused cold, but the age without medicine was no different from cancer.

In ancient times, there were many people who died from this disease.

If it continues to drag on, she can almost be sentenced to death with her current physique.

"Since you don't want to believe it, then I won't bother you."

Lin Xuan saw that the other party didn't want to believe him, so he didn't lick his face and stay to do anything.

His heart is not bad, and he also wants to pull the poor little girl he meets.

But now that people don't want it, then there is no need for him to do anything, and he doesn't owe anything to the other party.

Xiaoxiao shook his head, Lin Xuan turned around and prepared to leave, going about his own business.

"Big brother, don't go."

When Yaya saw that Lin Xuan was leaving, she immediately broke free from her mother and chased after her quickly, and finally knelt in front of Lin Xuan with a click.
