Chapter 249: Why Is It So Hot
"Let's eat!" Huo Chi took the bowl out: "Today is Kuaishou lunch, giant frog meat steak rice, let's eat." โ
"I'm almost starving to death, and I haven't eaten anything since yesterday!" Xiao Jian didn't care about the simplicity of the meal given by Huo Chi, he picked up the chopsticks and directly picked up a meat chop and ate it fiercely.
"Crispy, fragrant!" Fu Ze nodded, and ate several bites in a row before going to eat rice.
Su Qingqing had already eaten giant frog meat before, so now she put the meat steak into her mouth with confidence, her lips moved slightly, and the crunchy meat steak made a nice sound.
Qin Lang swallowed the rice in his mouth and asked, "Is there anything in this steak?" It's a little spicy, but it's not chili." โ
"Black pepper, for flavor. Huo Chi replied as he took a piece of meat steak into his mouth.
The breadcrumbs on the surface of the giant frog steak are fried to a golden brown and charred flavor, which is far more delicious than the previous dry bread. Beneath the crispy breadcrumbs is a steak with the scent of black pepper.
The meat of the giant frog is very tender and delicate, and it has been carefully beaten by Huo Chi, so it appears more tender and juicy. After two bites, the charred breadcrumbs and tender giant frog meat are mixed together, making it crispy and delicious, and it is really appetizing.
After eating the steak, I took a bite of the rice soaked in egg sauce, and the salty and delicious egg sauce enveloped the rice, and every bite was full of flavor, which was so refreshing.
Well, although this meal is simple to make, compared to the food given in the detention room yesterday, it is really heaven and earth.
"Whewโthis is called food!" Xiao Jian was the first to finish the big bowl of chicken steak rice, he put down the bowl, and said with some unfinished words: "It seems that I need something." โ
"Then I'll eat it in the evening. Su Qingqing said to Xiao Jian: "No matter how delicious the food is, you can't eat it hard, you have to take your time." โ
"I can't slow down, it's so delicious, I can't control my mouth at all. Xiao Jian expressed helplessness.
"Haha. Everyone couldn't help but laugh when they saw this, and the time for the meal passed quickly.
In the afternoon, Xiao Jian and Fu Ze went to the round ice service station in Kilei City, where the safety tires were still too expensive, and the two discussed it for a while, or wait.
Since the next destination, Stone City, was a two-day drive from the city of Kirey, the Snow Leopards used the half-day to procure the necessary supplies, and Huo Chi even bought a large piece of black hard bread to make breadcrumbs.
After all the purchases were completed, everyone returned to the camp, and when night came, everyone had eaten dinner and washed up, and then lay down and rested well.
Huo Chi fell asleep in the blink of an eye, he dreamed that he had gone to the desert alone, and the more he walked, the more thirsty he became, and the hotter he went.
Oh, why is it so hot? Huo Chi took off his clothes in his dream, kept wiping his sweat, and the scorching sun above his head kept scorching him, it was really too hot to stand.
Huo Chi finally woke up from the heat, huh, why is it so hot in the room?! He opened his eyes suddenly, and found that there was a fiery red outside the window!
"It's on fire! Wake up, everyone! Wake up!" Huo Chi shook the others vigorously, and everyone was dazed by the thick smoke.
Huo Chi was anxious, picked up the kettle and poured some water on everyone, and everyone finally woke up.
Everyone who came to their senses immediately picked up their packages and rushed out the door.
"Come down from that side!" someone downstairs was already shouting, and Huo Chi also found that the road ahead was full of flames, so he immediately obeyed the command of the people below and ran to the fire ladder.
In fact, the situation here is not optimistic, but the flames are smaller after all, Huo Chi and everyone rushed down quickly, and finally ran to the gate safely.
"What's the matter? Why didn't the alarm go off? What about the firefighters? Why haven't they come yet?" asked Fu Ze, pulling a camp guard.
Seeing that Fu Ze's military rank was higher, the guard replied honestly: "The alarm has been destroyed, and the speed of the fire is too fast, there is no time to repair it, and I don't know about the fire department, I have already sent someone to look for it, and I haven't come back yet." โ
"Then you put out the fire first, do you just have to wait?" Su Qingqing was also anxious, God knows if there are still people in the camp who have not come out.
"We want to, too, but the water has stopped working today, and the fire extinguisher and sand have all been used just now, so we can't do anything. "The guards are quite aggrieved.
Huo Chi watched the flames on the first floor rush to the second floor, and then the third floor also caught fire, and Kirei City was still in a semi-arid area, once such a big fire broke out here, it would be difficult to extinguish without professional firefighting equipment.
Seeing that the camp provided by the city of Kireh for the expedition team to rest was almost burned to the ground, the firetruck in the city of Kiree was late.
The fire was extinguished after all, and Huo Chi felt that this fire was not extinguished at all, and there was nothing left to burn to extinguish itself.
"Let's come over and check the number of people. The officer of the camp ran over with the registration book, and he checked the names and numbers of the expedition one by one, and could not help frowning.
"One less team, White Hawk's night owl team, White Hawk's night owl team is not there?" he observed the expedition team in front of him, but no one answered.
"The supper team? Someone shouted, "Did they leave on their own and forgot to register?"
"No way, I registered in the evening. The officer looked at the register, and then at the charred camp behind him, and began to feel a chill in his heart.
"Guys, can you please come with me to find them. It was already getting darker, but his face was getting harder and harder.
"Let's go, let's see. Fu Ze immediately took action and walked with the people of the Snow Leopard Team towards the still smoking fire.
"Let's go check it out. "When he saw that someone was moving, the others followed.
"Be careful, there are places where there are no open flames, there may still be dangers, and many of them are about to collapse. The firefighters told the expedition members that they were looking for the missing night owl in the rubble.
The inside of the ruins was charred black, exuding a pungent smell, but Huo Chi was blessed by the system with a sense of smell +2, and he felt that the smell here was too great.
"Ahem!" Huo Chi heard something, and turned his head to see that it was the little Lori Zhou Meng wearing a gas mask and the rest of the Tigers.
"Hmmโโ!" Zhou Meng couldn't speak with a mask on his face, so he happily raised his hand to greet Huo Chi and Su Qingqing.
Huo Chi also waved his hand at her, but remembered that he should also wear a mask, so he turned around and went to Yuanbing 008 to get it.
Just as he had five gas masks in his hands, he seemed to see a group of White Eagle expeditions flickering by.
Huo Chi blinked, that group of people has already gone away, and some people have already given up looking for it?
He sighed and returned to the group, who put on their gas masks and finally felt like they could barely breathe.
