Chapter 666: Cold Storage
When I came in, I only smelled a strong rancid smell, which completely masked the smell of living creatures, and I kind of understood why 'Brother Sharp' said that this was a treasure land.
"I'm sorry, I'll scare you, this is my partner, it's called hot pot, I'm afraid that it will go out and be caught and cooked, so I'll hide it here."
"It's okay, now this pet dog is almost extinct, I think it looks like a Labrador, a few months?"
"Just over three months old, the rich here still have the habit of keeping dogs, but once they run out on the street, they will be caught and sold as food."
"Is there a shortage of resources in the magic capital?"
"It depends on who you refer to, there is no shortage of rich people, everyone else is lacking, even if there is no shortage of food, there is a shortage of meat."
I looked at the puppy hiding in his arms, a skinny little one, with a very large skeleton, almost skinny and bones.
Even if it is boiled with qi and bones, it is not enough for one person to eat a meal, and this bit of meat is not spared, and the lack of meat in the Demon Capital camp is so serious?
"By the way, you threw away that bag of medicine when you saved me just now, was it used to exchange for food? How much money, I will pay you. ”
"Forget it, anyway, I stole it, I got it for nothing, and sent it away for nothing, you better keep the money and run away, the Bai family's grudge duo won't let you go, you will go out of the city early tomorrow morning, before they come up with more sinister tricks."
"We can't leave, there's a friend who is being held by them, and we can't leave her behind."
"Love and righteousness, I really didn't save the wrong person, so let's do it, I'll show you the way."
"If you want to say that there is anyone in this demon capital who has the greatest grudge against the Bai family brothers and sisters, it must be the Black Feather Palace!"
"Black Feather Palace? This one is quite special. ”
"This is not a person's name, it's the name of an organization, have you seen martial arts, Vulture Palace, Shifting Flower Palace!"
"Oh, I know, then the palace master of this Black Feather Palace is also a martial arts master?"
"What's more, the palace master of the Black Feather Palace is called Wu Nan, and Miss Bai is a girlfriend."
"Boudoir what?"
"Best enemies, don't you women all have girlfriends, the two of them are best enemies, from childhood to adulthood, but the two families were world friends before, and they played together since childhood, and when they were older, they went to the same kindergarten, junior high school, and high school, and finally went abroad to study, and the two were still in the same university."
"You said that the two families used to be world friends, but now they have broken up?"
"Don't worry, you have a night to listen to the story, listen to me tell it slowly~"
'Brother Sharp' said as he pulled out a biscuit from his pocket, broke it into three, and wanted to divide it between me and Tick.
"No, you can eat it yourself, we've already had dinner." I refused.
"Really? Don't be polite to me, everyone is a difficult brother, and it is also appropriate to help each other. ”
"You're welcome, I've really eaten it."
"Looking at your dress, you know that you mix well, and you don't look like a woman who relies on men, little brother, I admire it very much."
'Brother Sharp' shoved a third of the biscuits into his mouth and chewed them carefully, as if he were acting out a slow-motion shot.
It's not about elegance, it's just a long-term lack of food, and then a kind of 'nostalgia' for food, and by tasting it slowly, the experience is extended as much as possible.
I've seen people who are so hungry that their eyes glow green, but they chew slowly when they eat, and they cherish that little bit of hard-won food.
If I hadn't become a zombie, I'd be like them, regretting that I had wasted too much food while savoring the taste of food.
Because I know that the food in my hand is not enough to eat at all, and swallowing it can only cushion the bottom, I would rather endure the desire to swallow and prolong the time of eating.
Our food is in the space, and we can't take it out now, so I want to find an opportunity tomorrow morning to take out some of it and give it to Brother Sharp."
I can be kind to others, but I can't expose myself too much, An Shangyang's mother suffered such a loss.
'Brother Sharp' only ate two-thirds, and the remaining third was fed to the puppy in his arms, and the vitality of this puppy is also strong enough, and he can survive if he eats so little.
"It doesn't eat that carrion?" Tick stared at the puppy with a strange look in his eyes.
"I don't eat it, I don't eat it when I'm hungry, I was worried that it would have diarrhea if it ate secretly, so I marked the carrion, and it didn't move when I wasn't there, but the little guy was obedient and didn't eat the carrion."
"Where did you pick up the puppy?" Tick seems to be interested in the puppy.
"Outside the city, the dogs that the rich don't want to raise, all the dogs are thrown away outside the city, maybe the dog's mother died, I met it when I went to the garbage factory outside the city, a small lump, I looked pitiful, and I took it back."
"Will you keep it here after you bring it back?" Tick to ask.
"yes, oh, speaking of which, it was the day I brought it that I found out that this room was a treasure lot, and we escaped by hiding here."
'Brother Sharp' untied a small kettle from his waist and took two sips of it himself, feeding it to the puppy.
After drinking the water, he continued to tell us, saying that he had come back from outside the city late that day, and it was already dark when he walked to the quarantine area, and he had heard that the quarantine area was haunted, but he had never seen it.
So with a fluke mentality, he entered the quarantine area alone after dark, holding the puppy all the way.
When he reached the edge of the quarantine area, he heard whispers around him, thinking that someone was hiding in the quarantine area for the night, because although it had been burned by fire, some buildings could not be burned through, and some materials could be collected by dismantling it.
He even suspected that the rumors of the haunting were made up by these people in order to make others dare not enter, and the waste treasure would be all theirs.
At that time, this thought lowered his fear, but he didn't dare to take anything on other people's territory, he was only one person, and the other party sounded like there were many people.
Fearing that he would be taken for a robbery, he walked faster, and finally ran out of the quarantine area, and it was outside the gate of this hotel that he saw the true colors of those people.
At first, Brother Sharp thought that the scavengers wanted to kill him, so he chased after him, and in the whole area, only the gate of this hotel had a light, so he naturally ran here looking for the light, and the scavengers followed him.
There was no light that night, and he only knew that someone was chasing him behind him, and when he reached a place where there was a light, he turned his head to look behind him, and when he was frightened, his legs were weak, and he almost sat on the ground.
He saw the people behind him, their skin was charred, as if they had been scorched by fire, their eyeballs had burst open, and due to the contraction of their facial muscles by heat, two rows of teeth were bared out, as if they were sharp teeth in the mouth of a monster.
"I've seen people who have been burned, and you can't be wrong, they're the infected people who have been burned." 'Brother Sharp' said with a sigh of relief.
"I was scared half to death, fled into the hotel, subconsciously ran to the kitchen, and then found this cold storage, I hid in, and those ghosts stopped chasing."
"Then how do you know that they will turn the people they kill into one of them?" I asked.
"Because I saw someone I knew in it." 'Brother Sharp' looked at me and said, "Just now that idiot boss, his former mistress, is said to have gotten along with a little white face behind his back, and let him catch him in bed, and they beat the man to death, and then they threw the woman here, with ropes tied to her hands and feet, and she couldn't get out." ”
Brother Sharp shook his head and sighed: "I know that woman, she used to live upstairs in our house, she had an imported famous watch, showing off to us all day long, and then climbed up to the idiot boss and moved to his house, I recognize the watch in her hand." ”
The house was burned to death, and those infected must have been burned to charcoals, and the watch in the hands of the deceased was naturally not spared, so what 'Brother Sharp' said may not be unreliable.
The watch he saw must have been brought in by someone from outside the infected area, but the watch was not necessarily unique, it might be the same model, so the dead man he saw by Brother Sharp might not be the former mistress.
There are many blank spots in the events he recounts, and there is no necessary connection, but it is a bit strange that a recognizable watch is worn on the hand of a charred corpse.
'Brother Sharp' touched the puppy's head and smiled at us: "You two have a big life, if you meet me, you will not die, and you will have a blessing!" ”
Then he sent the puppy to the tick: "You like it, give it a hug." ”
Tick has just asked a couple of questions about puppies, which tricks 'Brother Sharp' into thinking she's interested in puppies.
Before Tick could say anything, the puppy was so frightened that it retracted violently, and its body shook non-stop, but it didn't bark.
'Brother Sharp' pushed the puppy in front of me again, "Really, you are so brave to let this big sister hug." ”
The ticking face is relatively cold, she doesn't like to laugh, and the first impression must be that it is difficult to approach, so 'Brother Sharp' picked a kind face to hug the puppy.
Unexpectedly, the puppy was even more scared, and tears rushed out, as if 'Brother Sharp' was not sending it to me to hug, but to send it to the dog meat restaurant.
"We, especially don't attract small animals, people give nicknames to dogs and ignore them." I laughed and snorted.
'Brother Sharp' reluctantly patted the puppy's buttocks, saying that it was a coward, and he was afraid of being like this when he saw a living person.
"Maybe I've been abused before, I'm afraid of people, after all, not everyone can be like you, treat small animals like this, it seems that it only trusts you." The blind weaving of the tick face does not change color.
'Brother Sharp' took the puppy into his arms, and the puppy gradually stopped trembling, and it arched its head into the crook of 'Brother Sharp's arm, looking like an ostrich out of sight and out of mind.
"Oh yes, let's move on to the Black Feather Palace." 'Brother Sharp' finally remembered this stubble, he sat on the chair next to the shelf, and put the puppy in his clothes, although the cold storage was impermeable, but the temperature was low.
The north and south cooled down at the same time, and the spring was delayed, and the heating in the north was cut off early, so there were a large number of survivors moving south, although there was no heating here, but it could cope with electric heating or air conditioning, which was cold and cold.
We are used to freezing in the north, and we didn't feel cold when we first arrived in the demon, but it was a little cold in the room, but the physique of me and Tick was different from ordinary people, and it was not unbearable.
