Chapter 36: Guan Xiaoyu's heart knot
"Can you use that earthen gun for my mother!" Cancan also had the courage to speak, trying to get a self-defense weapon for his mother, and Cancan's mother was already standing at some point.
For a moment, everyone turned their heads to look at Cancan, and the only weapons they had left behind at the moment were the air gun and the smoothbore gun that had been shelved by Hong Chan.
Although the shooting process of that smoothbore gun is cumbersome and the firing range is extremely short, it is still a sharp weapon for emergency self-defense at close range.
"Okay then! Anyway, it's useless to keep this! After Hong Chan finished speaking, he threw the smoothbore gun and the pellet medicine pack to Cancan's mother, and then simply handed over the other party how to use the smoothbore gun.
At the moment when Cancan's mother shot and hit the green belt, the surrounding onlookers let out a burst of exclamations.
Of course, more people are eager to partner with Guan Xiaoyu and his party, after all, such a heavily armed team is naturally far stronger in combat than these unarmed rabble, and joining such a team, the sense of security has not been improved by a star.
"Little sister! You're still short of people! Would you like to make a partner? ”
"And I'm still ......"
Of course, no matter how good these people said, Guan Xiaoyu rejected their requests one by one, after all, there were already two idlers in the team, the mother and son, and it was still unknown whether Xie Yixiang, who had just joined, had his own careful thoughts......
Because Wang Jingyang and his entourage had already driven all morning, they started a dark battle with MK.VI. Therefore, the group of people present were already so hungry that their chests were pressed against their backs, and Guan Xiaoyu had begun to experience dizziness due to the huge consumption of electronic skeletons.
So, Wang Jingyang and Guan Xiaoyu first couldn't wait to fill a pot full of white rice in a rice cooker.
But after coming to the kitchen, Wang Jingyang was disappointed to find that due to the power outage, the electronic cooking utensils such as rice cookers and microwave ovens had already become useless furnishings.
Fortunately, Wang Jingyang found that the LNG tank connected to the gas stove was very fuel, perhaps because of the remote location, so the villa area has not yet been connected to the natural gas pipeline.
Helpless, Wang Jingyang had to pour the white rice into the soup pot, then fill it with water and start heating.
However, of course, white rice alone is not enough, just when a few people were struggling with the problem of the dish, Cancan volunteered to stand up: "It's okay!" My mom and I used to cut wild vegetables and touch snails when we were in the countryside! ”
"yes, yes! Girl! You saved us both, and we can't always hold you back! Cancan's mother looked at Wang Jingyang and Guan Xiaoyu sincerely and said, "It's all wild land outside, there must be a lot of wild vegetables!" ”
"But it's too dangerous for you two to go out like this!" Wang Jingyang was a little worried, "Why don't I go with the academy to train you!" ”
Guan Xiaoyu immediately glared at Wang Jingyang viciously, although she was exhausted, but when she thought of her mission, she didn't dare to let Wang Jingyang leave casually, so she could only reluctantly agree: "Okay then!" ”
In this way, Guan Xiaoyu and Wang Jingyang left the villa with snakeskin bags and scissors.
"I'm sorry! Know you're hungry! But we can't let them go out on an adventure! Wang Jingyang looked at Guan Xiaoyu beside him with some guilt.
"Forget it! I don't want to eat rice anyway! Guan Xiaoyu comforted herself.
The wilderness on the outskirts of the villa area is full of salallow weeds.
Cancan's mother and son lowered their heads and began to grope carefully.
"Malan!"
Cancan cut a cluster of wild vegetables with slightly jagged leaves and waved them at Wang Jingyang and the others.
Wang Jingyang, who had nothing to do on the side, began to enjoy the scenery of the suburbs, he looked down at the beautiful little yellow flowers among the leaves and grasses around him, and then turned his head to look at Guan Xiaoyu who was sitting on the empty grass with his knees crossed.
At this time, Guan Xiaoyu seemed to have nothing to do, and she raised her hand to untie her pill head.
Immediately, a yellowish strand of hair fell over her shoulders and collarbones.
Wang Jingyang's mind suddenly went blank, and the pupils that looked at Guan Xiaoyu also began to dilate, he remembered that the last time he had such a reaction was when he was waiting side by side with Banhua Chu Ling for the car, but unfortunately Chu Ling is now ......
"Mom! Check it out! There are a lot of wild camellia here! ”
A shout brought Wang Jingyang's thoughts back to reality, and Wang Jingyang realized that Guan Xiaoyu had turned his head to look at him at some point, and the cluster of small yellow flowers growing at his feet had been held up to his chest by him at some point.
Guan Xiaoyu straightened up and stretched gracefully, and then beckoned to Wang Jingyang.
Wang Jingyang's scalp suddenly tingled, and he said in his heart, Guan Xiaoyu wouldn't have guessed what he was thinking......
But when Wang Jingyang wanted to turn around and run away, he found that he had already walked to Guan Xiaoyu half-truthfully.
"It's idle now anyway!" Guan Xiaoyu spread out his arms and lay down on the spot, "Are you interested in chatting?" ”
Looking at Guan Xiaoyu, who was lying beside him looking up at the blue sky, Wang Jingyang swallowed his saliva and sat next to Guan Xiaoyu slightly awkwardly.
"Have you ever had a crush?" Guan Xiaoyu measured his head, blinked, and looked at Guan Xiaoyu.
"Hmm......" Wang Jingyang couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, and said in his heart Why did Guan Xiaoyu ask her this question, could she ......
"Did anyone like you?" Guan Xiaoyu continued to ask.
Wang Jingyang noticed that when Guan Xiaoyu asked this question, a trace of gloom flashed in her eyes.
"It should ...... No, it's ...... on my terms," Wang Jingyang said with a dry smile.
"In the future world, someone once fell in love with me, but I never believed him......" Guan Xiaoyu said, two tears flowed from the corners of his eyes, "In the end, he couldn't get rid of Pangu's control and launched an attack on me, in order not to hurt me, he begged me to kill him with his last will......"
"Then you ......"
As soon as Wang Jingyang spit out two words, he realized that he might have said the wrong thing, so he immediately stopped his mouth.
"I killed him with my own hands......" Guan Xiaoyu closed his eyes, tears flowed from the corners of his eyes, "The moment I killed him, I realized that I liked him......"
"I killed him! Kill him with your own hands! He was right in front of me like that...... Fragmented and torn apart......"
“……”
Wang Jingyang tried his best to appease the past scar in Guan Xiaoyu's heart, but he hesitated for a long time but didn't know how to speak.
"He is the first Sweeper MK.III made by Pangu, although he no longer has his own memories as a human, but because Pangu can't create a biological weapon that can imitate human feelings, he chose to liberate this MK.III's self-consciousness and learning ability......" Guan Xiaoyu said of this person he can't forget, "because Pangu hopes to create a biological weapon that can imitate human beings from both physical and mental and emotional aspects, so as to break into the human race and disintegrate the human resistance organization." ……”
"But he learned human feelings, he learned to like and love, right?" Wang Jingyang began to be full of curiosity about the biological weapon in Guan Xiaoyu's mouth.
"Even in the end, he has already thought of himself as a real human ......" Guan Xiaoyu looked at the sky with empty eyes, "until Pangu realized his betrayal and forcibly invaded his execution unit with nanobots......"
"Why did you suddenly ...... Say these? Wang Jingyang looked at Guan Xiaoyu in puzzlement.
Hearing this, Guan Xiaoyu stole a strange look at Wang Jingyang: "Because...... I can see that you have thoughts about me......"
"Ahhh......h
Just as the two were talking, Cancan, who was not far away, suddenly let out a scream.
Wang Jingyang and Guan Xiaoyu immediately straightened up and looked at Cancan not far away.
At some point, a few bloodied infected people emerged from the overgrown weeds, and they rushed towards Cancan step by step.
Wang Jingyang sensed that the situation was not good, and raised his gun to shoot.
Although it was only less than twenty meters away, Wang Jingyang shot a few shots, but he didn't even wipe the hair of the infected person. Not only that, Wang Jingyang's shoulder was also shaken by the huge recoil.
"What a broken marksmanship!" Guan Xiaoyu glanced at Wang Jingyang with disdain.
Fortunately, the speed of those infected people was so slow that Cancan could easily shake them off even rolling and crawling all the way.
"Let's go!" Guan Xiaoyu gestured, "There's no need to waste bullets on them, it's just three slow corpses, just get rid of them!" ”
"What's a slow corpse?" Wang Jingyang was curious about this new term.
"The transformation of the living is called a fast corpse! The corpse transformation is called a slow corpse! Guan Xiaoyu explained, "The former can run at a speed close to that of ordinary people, while the latter can only swing slowly!" ”
"So...... The group of infected people who attacked the army in the resettlement area before were all fast corpses? ”
"That's right! In a large-scale group of corpses, there will be a significant fault between slow and fast corpses! ”
"Bang!"
At this moment, Cancan's mother shouted at the smoothbore gun in her hand and gave the infected a blow.
In an instant, the face of the infected person was torn apart by the projectile, but the infected person did not show any pain, and still approached step by step with half a rotten face.
"Leave them alone! Hurry back! ”
With Wang Jingyang's shout, Cancan's mother and son immediately dragged the snakeskin bag back to the villa.
Although Cancan's mother and son have not gained much this time, they can barely make up a pot of mixed vegetable soup.
Four or five catties of wild vegetables, plus canned luncheon meat that was originally scavenged from the villa, Wang Jingyang looked forward to the fact that Cancan's mother and son could make a decent lunch with these things.
Several people who were already so hungry that their chests were pressed against their backs rushed to help with the cooking, some rushed to boil water, some rushed to wash vegetables, and some rushed to prepare soup.
As the shepherd's cabbage, maran, amaranth, and meat slices were put into the pot one after another, Cancan's mother also poured the soup she had prepared into the soup pot.
Wang Jingyang smelled the aroma of meat in the soup pot and felt more and more empty in his stomach, after all, in the first few days of the disaster, Wang Jingyang and Hong Chan ate instant noodles almost every day, and they still had one flavor a day......
After the rice in the wok was fully cooked, Wang Jingyang took the brunt of the big noodle bowl and filled three tablespoons of mixed vegetable soup.
The charming aroma of meat mixed with the aroma of wild vegetables made Wang Jingyang eat two large bowls of rice with this bowl of vegetable soup.
Wang Jingyang couldn't have imagined that these wild vegetables could be stewed into a delicious soup in the restaurant.
"Auntie! I didn't expect the soup you make on skewers to be so delicious! Guan Xiaoyu on the side also couldn't help but praise.
"I used to learn a craft, and I originally opened a small restaurant to support my family, but unfortunately we couldn't even afford to rent a store!" Cancan's mother sighed, "No way! I can only sell skewers and barely make ends meet! ”
