The Gray Age Chapter Seventy-Three The Granary
() "This... I really don't know how to comfort you.."
After listening to Maggie tell her about her previous experience, to be honest, I am just a listener, and I can't understand how cruel their world is, it should be on a par with the world we live in now, right? Maybe even more brutal? ...
I gently took Maggie's hand, and felt a cold feeling, hoping that the temperature of my palm would reach her heart and make her stop being sad and sad.
"Okay, okay! Lao Liu doesn't smoke anymore! ”
Suddenly, the crowd next to us who were waiting for Lao Liu to wake up in a circle let out excited shouts.
When Meiqi and I heard this, we looked back at Lao Liu and found that he had indeed stopped convulsing and was breathing very smoothly.
"Hurry up, put the two tables together and bring Lao Liu up!"
I stood up directly and began to move the table in the teahouse to form a temporary "bed" for Lao Liu to rest.
Dabin Zhou Ping lifted Lao Liu up and put him on the table with all hands and feet, so that he could lie down well, and then Zhou Ping took off a somewhat tattered down jacket and covered Lao Liu. It's cold now, and if you catch a cold, you'll be inactive.
After all this, we were all sweating profusely. I'm afraid that Lao Liu will die like this if he has three longs and two shorts, it will be a real tragedy. Now as soon as I relaxed, my stomach began to growl.
Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, all looking forward to the fact that we still have leftover food to eat. However, when we fled from the temple in a hurry, the rice, flour, oil and other food that Lao Zhao was responsible for were all left in the temple, and the food in our backpacks had already been consumed in the past two days and there was not much left.
"How much more do you have to eat there? Let's see how long it lasts. ”
I said to the crowd.
In the end, the rest of our food added up to only two bags of potato chips, a bag of four small ham sausages, and five bottles of mineral water in Ruohan's backpack.
Everyone is very frustrated now, obviously the day before yesterday luckily got a lot of food from the service area, but before we could wait for two days to be happy, we were empty-handed, and we could only go hungry.
Dabin was about to turn over his backpack at this time, but it was useless, there should be no food or no food.
"Don't be so pessimistic, aren't there still a few bottles of mineral water? At least quench your thirst, don't you? Ruohan, come, give me a bottle. ”
At this moment, I can't bear a miserable face like everyone else, after all, it will be of no use other than to kill our desire to survive. So I can only push my spirits and make a little joke. Don't give up so early!
Taking the mineral water bottle, I poured a few big sips, and the other people who watched had a dry mouth and asked Ruohan for mineral water. Well, even the mineral water was consumed in just a few minutes.
However, after drinking the water, everyone's anxious nerves began to slowly become calmer.
"We can say that there is no food anymore, and the rice and noodles that Lao Zhao brought back are all left in the temple, so we have to hurry up and get some food now. I know it's dangerous out there, but don't worry, we're not rookies who have just come into contact with this world, and those who can survive now rely on their skills! ”
Scrappy words came out of my mouth, but I didn't feel embarrassed at all.
Everyone nodded in agreement, and the morale of the team was one
And the lower son went up.
"But Kuroko, now there are infected people outside, and you just said that they have all evolved, and we are not familiar with life here, where can we get food?"
Dabin hit the nail on the head and asked the question.
That's right, there's no denying Dabin's concerns. Now there are a lot of infected people outside the teahouse, and although they can't break in, we are now a turtle in an urn. It is impossible to go back to the temple, and it is also very dangerous to go out of the gate, so I am in a dilemma for a while.
"Qi Mo, isn't this a teahouse? How can there be no food? ”
Maggie, who had been sitting on the stool to rest, gradually recovered from her sad emotions and woke up all of us in our dreams with a word!
That's right! Teahouse Teahouse, although it is not a restaurant, should have a kitchen!
"Look at our brains, this is a teahouse, can we still lack food?"
I slapped my thigh with excitement.
When everyone heard me say this, it dawned on everyone. It seems that hunger does limit people's IQ, and such a simple thing is so troublesome to think about!
Thinking of this, I put down my backpack, dragged Dabin and began to look for the food in this teahouse. Only now did we have time to take a closer look at this teahouse.
The teahouse has two floors, the front desk is on the right hand side of the entrance on the first floor, and a variety of tea leaves are placed on the counter behind it. Although the facilities in the store were extremely chaotic due to the disaster, there was no trace of any fighting, and there was not even a trace of blood, which made me feel strange.
All the shops we met before were not said to be hell on earth, at least they were bloody, why was this place so clean? Could it be that these guys already knew that disaster would break out and slipped away in advance?
That's it, I can't think of so much for the time being, my stomach is already hungry, and it's important to eat as soon as possible.
Facing the front desk, there is a small door on the left hand side of the front desk, and there is a white curtain hanging on the small door, which looks like it should be the back kitchen. To avoid accidents, I carefully pulled out my axe and took a lighter out of my trouser pocket with my left hand to light it.
To be honest, the light of the lighter can't be weaker, and holding it in your hand is just a psychological comfort. But fortunately, there are two windows in the back kitchen, and you can still see the layout inside.
It is no different from a normal restaurant kitchen, there is a row of stoves on the right hand side of the door, and in the center of the kitchen is a place to chop vegetables and some spices. Opposite the stove is the water case. Although the area is not large, it has everything it should have.
"Holy!"
With the faint light of the lighter and the light coming through the kitchen window, Dabin saw at a glance something that made us all excited! However, he was uneducated, so he had to say "I'm!" "Go all over the world.
The large number of bales of vegetables and bags of flour and rice placed on the ground proved that Maggie's conjecture was not wrong! When I saw this, I didn't have to worry about it, there was enough food for a few of us for months! But it would be nice to have some more meat to eat, I was looking forward to it.
There is a tin door in the innermost part of the kitchen, which is supposed to be a cold room, used to store some perishable food. I couldn't help frowning, and suddenly remembered the scene I saw in the tunnel, I'm afraid it's not those disgusting human organs again, right? But if you think about it, you can't think it's possible, after all, this is the back kitchen, it's a place for cooking, how can you store those things?
While I was thinking about it, Dabin had slowly opened the door of the refrigerator.
What catches your eye are pieces of meat that haven't melted yet, and some seafood and the like.
"Holy!"
Dabin was a little too excited, and immediately ran out of the kitchen to announce the exciting news to everyone.
We're really shit lucky, such good things can happen, it seems that we are really the happiest survivors in the cataclysmic world!
When I exited the kitchen, I saw smiling faces full of excitement, and everyone was happy.
"We don't have to worry about it anymore this time, it's enough to eat for half a year!"
I'm in a good mood, and I even have the confidence to speak, so I'm joking with everyone.
"Huh? I'll check it out! ”
It was none other than Lao Liu, who had been lying unconscious on the table, who said this! Hearing me say this, I sat up from the table at once, wiped the white foam from the corner of my mouth, and looked around excitedly. Then I had to go to the kitchen to see for myself.
"I said Lao Liu, you stay honest, don't toss around, I can still lie to you?"
I'm afraid that Lao Liu will be excited and pull it over, and I want him to sit down quickly.
"No! I have to check it out! ”
This old Liu doesn't know why, he is usually very talkative, why doesn't he let him take a step now?
"Brother Qi, it's okay, I'll accompany Brother Liu to take a look."
Zhou Ping quietly relieved Lao Liu.
I nodded, and didn't stop me anymore, I just went if I wanted, and there was no danger anyway.
"Xiao Qi, Xiao Wang and I have already searched on the second floor, there is no danger, and there are many private rooms, enough for us to rest at night."
At this moment, Lao Zhao and Xiao Wang walked down the stairs on the second floor and reported to me the situation on the second floor.
"It's okay now, it's all about food and housing. But we have to trouble Feifei, our stomach depends on you. ”
Now that everything is ready, and Dongfeng doesn't owe anything, I talked to Fei Fei about cooking.
"It's okay, I used to sell roadside stalls, and cooking is my profession."
Fei Fei said to me sweetly, without the slightest anger when she got along with Dabin.
"Great! That's great! , what do you want! What do you want! I'll make you xiao long bao to eat in a while! ”
Lao Liu can be said to have crawled back to the hall in a row, but this could not extinguish the excitement in his heart at all.
"Lao Liu, are you okay?"
I heard it with a black line, but I didn't dare to stimulate him, for fear that he would pull it again, so I had to ask tentatively.
"Ah, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay to see so much to eat, hahaha!!"
After Lao Liu answered my question, he laughed, which made everyone baffled.
Although everyone is happy to have so much food, Lao Liu is a little too happy, right? Could it be that this guy has some latent mental illness???
"Then in that case, Fei Fei, let's go to the kitchen and see what we have today, you chef, let's give you a hand."
I coughed dryly twice.
After saying this, everyone stood up and began to act.
"The three of you can rest, we were all injured before, and besides, we have enough manpower, so let's rest."
I said to Ruohan, Lao Zhao and Lao Liu.
All three nodded and sat down on their stools, and the rest of us rushed to the kitchen to begin preparing our dinner.
