Chapter 81: Woman
After the defensive measures were done, the time had reached more than two o'clock, and everyone's stomachs were already hungry.
Li Yimeng had already built the stove, Zheng Jieming and others took all the leftovers of the wooden strips and wooden blocks to three layers, and because the fuel was still insufficient, Hua Feng, Ye Ran and other four people went to the courtyard on the first floor and broke off some branches for making a fire.
"Why don't you use gasoline as fuel for cooking?" Dong Yuan asked Li Yimeng.
Li Yimeng put down the firewood, turned around and said to everyone.
"Yes. If you are not afraid of being burned or injured, you can use gasoline even if you are tired of life. ”
"Chef, don't talk back, someone doesn't understand." Zhou Jitang interjected leisurely, but most of the time he still sat alone in the corner and fugue.
"I said Dong Fatman, you were staying in a fast food restaurant that day, and the car exploded at night, you didn't see it. So how did the car detonate with gasoline, don't you have a concept in your head? Wang Yueshan sneered at Dong Yuan on the side.
"Oh... Isn't it okay to dip some firewood in gasoline and throw it into the stove to make a fire? Dong Yuan still didn't understand, if he hadn't met Li Yimeng, Dong Yuan would definitely use gasoline to make a fire to cook.
"Let me put it this way, I have a buddy who studied cooking at the same time, this kid just cooks with gasoline on the fire when he has nothing to do, and his skin is burned, and his skin is scarred so far, and no woman dares to ask him." Li Yimeng said, pausing.
"Wouldn't it be better to be careful?" Dong Yuan still didn't understand, and the sentence "no woman dares to ask him" inadvertently poked at his sore spot, he glanced back at Qin Qin, and found that she was listening to Ling Er's whispering, and didn't notice everyone's argument at all. His face was hot, and he didn't want to look ignorant in front of Qin Qin.
"This kind of stove itself has a small space, and if you put firewood stained with gasoline in it, you must not light it directly with a lighter. Even if you use something else, piece of paper, or a strip of wood to ignite it, the likelihood of an explosion is still extremely high. Li Yimeng patiently explained, "Moreover, if you accidentally have a little oil star on your body, then you will be angry." ”
"Okay, I said Dong Yuan, if you want to risk dying and experimenting, then go out quietly and die by yourself, don't bother everyone." Wang Yueshan added a sentence in a contemptuous tone.
This sentence made Dong Yuan's heart extremely unhappy, he was on fire in his heart now, lowered his head, and after Wang Yueshan moved his eyes to the stove, Dong Yuan glanced at Wang Yueshan angrily.
Li Yu saw it in his eyes and didn't say anything, he secretly wrote down this detail in his mind.
Zheng Jieming left some clean knives in the kitchen on the first floor, and now he uses them. Everyone also brought back some condiments in the restaurant before, Li Yimeng had killed zombies, his hands were stained with blood, he didn't dare to touch the knife, and commanded Wang Shuangman to cut the potatoes as thin as possible to ensure that they were cooked quickly. Two or three hours ago, he had entrusted Wang Shuangman to use the water he had brought back, and now he instructed her to cut the noodles into thin pieces, told her how much salt and soy sauce to put in, and stir-fried a large pot of potato stewed noodles.
When frying stewed noodles, everyone didn't even dare to open the window, and Li Yimeng and Wang Shuangman endured the choking smell in the room.
The smell spread from the room to the hallway, and everyone's saliva flowed all over the floor, all hoping that the food would be cooked quickly.
Li Yimeng also had a good grasp of the amount of firewood, and after the stewed noodles were fried, the fire was almost extinguished.
There were empty bowls, plates and chopsticks in the kitchen, and the men did not dare to touch the cutlery directly, so Li Yimeng used a wooden stick to pry the cauldron a little, and the women scalded the dishes on the embers. Wang Shuangman began to pack food. There were ten plates in total, and everyone ate them on the plates.
This is the most delicious meal everyone has eaten in so many days, and the amount of seasoning that Li Yimeng commanded Wang Shuangman to put is just right, and everyone is full of praise.
"Li Yimeng, don't kill zombies in the future, cook with Wang Shuangman full-time!" Li Yu said with a smile.
The joke was unanimously nodded in agreement.
"Li Yimeng, how many I kill, half of the number is on your head, you can take Wang Shuangman to make food for everyone with peace of mind!" Wang Yueshan pointed at Li Yimeng with chopsticks, looking like a leader.
"He used to be a chef in a high-end restaurant, so let's enjoy it. You see, this most basic food can make it so delicious! Zheng Jieming also started chatting and farting.
"You've all praised the wrong people. The main reason is that Wang Shuangman's hands are more skillful, I just coaxed her blindly, she can fry it herself! Li Yimeng said with a smile. Wang Shuangman was also very happy to hear him say this.
Under the blending of food, the atmosphere of the end of the world has become joyful and harmonious for a while.
However, the joy was interrupted by a hurried knock at the door.
Almost at the same time, the crowd stopped chewing and listened with their ears pricked up.
The knock on the door stopped after eight consecutive knocks. Just as everyone was about to ignore the voice, the knock on the door sounded again, and it was louder than before.
This knock lasted ten times.
Li Yu walked to the west window and tried to look down, but the main entrance happened to be blocked and he couldn't see. He didn't open the window rashly.
"I'll take a look!" Hua Bong chewed the noodles in his mouth as he lifted the knife and stood up.
"You wait a minute, I'll go with you. Dong Yuan, Wang Yueshan, you also come. Xiao Han and Ye Ran, the two of you are waiting at the staircase on the second floor, and if you have any questions, you can pass the word to the third floor. The others eat first and leave us alone. Zheng Jieming raised his vigilance.
The four of them went downstairs softly, listening carefully to the rhythm of the knock on the door. Zheng Jieming felt that this was a human voice, which raised the security even more.
"There's... Anyone? ”
The person outside began to speak, it was a woman's voice, her voice was extremely weak, and it seemed that she was already on the edge of life.
"Help... I..."
Hua Bong glanced at Zheng Jieming.
"It's a woman. Let's go out and have a look? Hua Bong asked.
"No! She spoke so weakly, she must have been bitten! If you put it in, you might be transformed immediately! Wang Yueshan resolutely objected.
"Dong Yuan, what do you think?" Zheng Jieming asked.
Dong Yuan glanced at Wang Yueshan and said, "She is not injured, she can see it at a glance when she opens the door." ”
"Don't be a bad guy now, you know how many people might be out there?" Wang Yueshan was a little anxious.
"If you open the door, you'll know, it's just a woman, what are you afraid of?" Dong Yuan and Wang Yueshan were on the bar.
"Even if she's alone, what about when she sleeps! What if she suddenly transforms herself? We don't know if there's anything wrong with her at all! Wang Yueshan resolutely disagreed to open the door, he hoped to let the woman outside retreat on her own.
"Then whoever sleeps may transform into a corpse on their own, don't you also have a corpse on their own." Dong Yuan came out again, "Besides, didn't you say that you have to tie your feet when you sleep at night?" I didn't tie it up last night, so I just can't tie it up in the future. ”
Wang Yueshan didn't quite support Li Yu's idea of tying up his feet, but when he heard Dong Yuan deliberately singing the opposite, he was angry and scolded, "Are you looking for death!?" ”
This sound was good, and the people outside the door heard it and thought they were scolding her.
"No, no, big brother! I really didn't mean anything else! Excuse me! I was just hungry and wanted to beg for food and water, and I left after eating and drinking. ”
Zheng Jieming listened to what the woman outside said was pitiful, and Wang Yueshan also exposed himself, and finally relented and walked to the door.
He first looked out through the crack in the window, and there seemed to be only a woman's figure outside.
"Are you alone?" He asked.
"I'm the only one." Her voice was soft.
"She's the only one, safe, let it in!" Dong Yuan looked at Zheng Jieming expectantly and whispered.
"What's your name? What did you do before? Zheng Jieming leaned against the wall, holding a gun in his hand, and asked the people outside.
"I'm just going to work, I... My name is... My name is Liu... Qianwen. ”
Liu Qianwen? Zheng Jieming thought of certain female stars with the same or similar names.
"Where are you from?" Zheng Jieming continued to ask vigilantly.
"From... From the east. The woman seemed to hesitate all the time when she spoke.
"To the east? Changchun Street? Or is it a pedestrian street? Zheng Jieming began to wonder, after the corpse tide dispersed yesterday, the east should be the hardest hit area of zombie flooding, how did she come over as a woman?
"My family lives in Yaxin Road! I'm from Yaxin Road! The woman seemed to be in a hurry.
"How did you survive?" Zheng Jieming is more sensitive. Under the sea of corpses, a woman can survive alone, which is doubtful in itself, and Yaxin Road is also quite close to Mingxiu and his group.
"Big brother! You can't open the door or not, there are a few zombies behind you who are starting to go up the stairs, and they are about to catch up!! The woman began to knock on the door continuously, but this time she didn't dare to knock too loudly, it sounded like her fingers were trembling while knocking on the door, and her voice became more nervous, with a crying voice, "Please, open the door quickly!" ”
"Open!" Dong Yuan directly began to get started and removed the latch.
Hwabong also advocated opening the door.
Although Zheng Jieming hesitated, he couldn't tolerate staying outside for this weak-sounding woman, he felt that if she really died in front of the door of the small building, the biggest responsibility would be himself.
He decided to let her in.
The four men opened the latch in turn, removed the inclined planks, and pulled the vertical wooden bolt open, opening the door a crack.
The woman at the door threw herself into the house and fell to the ground.
The woman wore long, chestnut hair with slightly curly hair. She turned her head and looked at Zheng Jieming pitifully.
Zheng Jieming glanced at her, her face was delicate, but there was a melancholy and frightened look on her face.
He looked out the door, there were no other living people outside the door, and several zombies did catch up on the steps.
Zheng Jieming, Wang Yueshan, and Hua Feng stood guard not far from the door, waiting for the zombies to chase them to the door, and killed the zombies neatly. The three of them looked left and right, but they didn't find Dong Yuan.
"Get up, I'll take you upstairs to eat." Dong Yuan did not participate in killing zombies, but reached out to pull Liu Qianwen.
He began to feel ecstatic, and he felt that he was the great hero who saved the beauty.
