Chapter 414: The Couple Under the Bridge
"The water here is so clear!" Leng Xi looked at the crystal clear water and said.
"It's been almost a year without any pollution, of course it's clear! In a few years it will be clearer! Zhang Qiru said.
"Well, is this a little good in the last days?" Leng Xi said.
"Maybe, maybe humans should be eliminated, right?" Zhang Qiru said.
"Hee-hee, don't talk about such esoteric topics! Fetch water and eat! Leng Xi said.
Zhang Qiru carried a bucket to clean up in the water, and after cleaning it up, he fetched a whole bucket of water and prepared to go back to cooking. The two of them passed by the house again with a bucket of water, and the woman was still hiding in the house and watching them, and seemed to be holding a little boy in her arms, three or four years old. Zhang Qiru didn't speak, just glanced at them and walked over.
"Ready to cook, right?" Zhang Qiru said.
"Let's clean up the chickens first!" Yan Xiaoyue is like a chef.
Zhang Qiru and Leng Xi had no choice but to carry two pheasants to the river to kill the chickens. The two of them passed the house under the bridge again, and the woman was still watching them from the house, still not daring to come out. Zhang Qiru disemboweled the pheasant directly by the river, cleaned it up, and then carried the pheasant back. The two of them passed the house again, but the woman still hid in the house, watching them both warily.
"Damn, do I look that scary?" Zhang Qiru was speechless.
"Poof, it's not scary, it's called vigilance!" Leng Xi hammered Zhang Qiru and said.
Zhang Qiru shook his head and returned to the railway.
Ten minutes later, the water boiled, Yan Xiaoyue quickly removed the pheasant's hair, then chopped it into pieces, and brushed the dishes with hot water by the way - there is nothing taboo now, it would be good to have something to eat.
"Is it boiled directly?" Yan Xiaoyue asked.
"We don't have any other spices, do we?" Xiuhe said.
"Forget it, let's boil it directly, the clear soup is also fragrant!" Yan Xiaoyue said.
So Yan Xiaoyue took Xiuhe to start cooking, while the rest of the people chatted and looked at the scenery.
"Someone's coming!" Brother Leopard took the binoculars and saw someone.
Zhang Qiru also picked up the binoculars and looked, and sure enough, someone came from a distance to this side.
"It could be the man from the family below!" Zhang Qiru said.
"Huh? Which family is below? Brother Leopard was puzzled.
"Oh, I forgot to mention just now, there is a family under the bridge, only a woman and a child." Zhang Qiru said.
"Oh, that's right, that's probably it, with a shotgun." Brother Leopard said.
"It's okay, he doesn't need to pay attention to him!" Zhang Qiru said.
The man saw Zhang Qiru and the others from afar, because they were all standing on the railway. The man was stunned for a moment, then quickly ran to the railway, and after approaching, he got under the bridge without thinking about it, probably to see his wife and children.
"Are you alright?" Zhang Qiru clearly heard the conversation between the two.
"It's fine!" The woman said.
"Who are they?" The man asked.
"I don't know, they saw me ten minutes ago, but they didn't do anything!" The woman said.
The man breathed a sigh of relief, but he still cautiously walked out of the house, looked at Zhang Qiru and the others, and walked back again.
"It should be fine, there may only be three of them." Zhang Qiru said.
After a long while, a large pot of chicken soup was stewed, and the fragrant smell of chicken soup came to the nose, which made the mouth water.
"Come, come, come! Take out the bowls! Enough! Yan Xiaoyue said with a smile.
Several people took out their chopsticks and filled a bowl each, and then sat on the flatbed car and ate it on the train tracks. Leng Xi sat with Li Xiaorou and Zhang Qiru, chatting while eating. The three of them were eating fragrantly, and suddenly saw a little boy on the other side of the railroad tracks staring at them with wide eyes, constantly sucking saliva in his mouth. When Li Xiaorou saw the little boy, she got up lightly and walked slowly towards the little boy.
The little boy seemed a little frightened and took two steps back, but he couldn't resist the aroma of the chicken soup and retreated very slowly.
"Don't be afraid, I'll give you something to eat!" Li Xiaorou said with a smile.
The little boy still didn't dare to approach, so Li Xiaorou put the bowl on the railroad track and slowly retreated. When the little boy saw the chicken soup placed on the railroad tracks, he slowly took two steps forward, and found that Zhang Qiru and the others had no reaction, so he hurriedly ran over, picked up the chicken soup and began to drink it in a big gulp, and couldn't help even one more temptation.
"Children, slow down, everyone will grab with you!" Li Xiaorou said with a smile.
It may be that Li Xiaorou's voice was too loud, and the couple under the bridge heard it, and they found that their child was missing, so they hurriedly ran up and found that their child was drinking chicken soup, and the woman was so frightened that she immediately snatched the chicken soup, put it on the ground, and apologized continuously:
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, the child is still young and ignorant, you don't remember the villain! Don't worry about your children! ”
After that, the woman will take the child and leave.
"Wait!" Zhang Qiru said.
"Please don't hurt them!" The man came over with a shotgun in both hands and knelt on the ground, "You can do whatever you want, please don't hurt them!" ”
"Uh......" Zhang Qiru was dumbfounded, he hadn't done anything yet, why was this the case? Then, Zhang Qiru calmed down, in fact, it has always been like this since the end of the world, but they are strong, and no one can do this to them!
"It's okay, the child is hungry, it's not a big deal, give him something good, it's so thin, it needs to be replenished!" Leng Xi stood up and pulled Li Xiaorou over.
"yes, don't be so scared, we're not bad people!" Li Xiaorou also said.
I have to say that being beautiful is capital, although they are also fully armed, but Leng Xi and Li Xiaorou are much more convincing when they speak!
"Really?" The man asked, still a little unconvinced.
"What are you lying to?" Leng Xi and Li Xiaorou both smiled, their smiles like angels.
"Thank you! Thank you! The couple hastened to thank them.
"Come on, you guys can have some too, we can't eat either!" Li Xiaorou said.
"Thank you, thank you! You are truly living bodhisattvas! "The couple had tears in their eyes, and they seemed really touched.
"It's fun to help others!" Leng Xi said.
So the couple also drank chicken soup together, and the family of three ate almost a third, and it seemed that they hadn't eaten meat for a long time.
"I'm sorry!" The couple also felt that they had eaten too much.
"It's okay, we can't eat that much!" Zhang Qiru didn't mind.
"You guys are so nice people! Alas, it's a pity that good people don't live long! The woman sighed.
"What do you say?" The man hurriedly stopped.
"It's okay! We don't shy away from this! That's what this world is, it's okay! Zhang Qiru didn't say anything else, he really didn't care.
"Thank you, thank you!" The man thanked him again.
