Chapter Seventy-One: Eating Hot Pot
It was almost at night, Zhuge Honghong dragged his tired body out, and when Zhang Xiao saw Zhuge Honghong's white hair, he was shocked at first, and then it was an indescribable pain.
...... at a young age
Zhuge Honghong patted him on the shoulder and squeezed out a smile, "It's nothing, let's go have a drink." ”
Zhang Xiao didn't have anything, she followed him, as for Jiang Yinyin, Zhang Xiao still said the same thing, whatever she wanted, but I still hope that she can leave as soon as possible.
Jiang Yinyin also gave a reply, saying that she would leave early tomorrow morning, and as for whether she joined the red wall, she would talk about it.
The three of them walked on the desolate street, blowing a somewhat hot summer breeze, looking at the shops on both sides that were no longer brightly lit, and they felt indescribably comfortable.
Zhang Xiao said with a smile: "I didn't expect such a big city to fall into the hands of a few of us in the end, is this considered a dove occupying the magpie's nest." ”
Zhuge Honghong pushed her glasses, "Although I understand what you mean, you are quite uncomfortable to use this word." ”
Jiang Yinyin nodded, "I feel the same way." ”
Zhang Xiao didn't care, she casually took out three bottles of beer from a supermarket next to her, drank one bottle herself, and handed the other two bottles to the two people, "Sometimes I think it's good to have fewer people, it's so quiet, and without people, the air in this city seems to be fresher." ”
Zhuge Honghong raised his head and took a sip, "But the city without people, isn't it dead?" You see around here, there are no people, these are just a wall made of reinforced concrete, which is neither practical nor beautiful, but after there are people, these cold things look much warmer. I used to rarely go out on the streets, but if I didn't walk once, I would think that the city was still very crowded, and it looked lively, at least not so cold. ”
Jiang Yinyin also said: "I was locked in the training room by the Jiang family since I was a child, and I rarely went out, but every time I watched the mission, I saw those houses, those places where people came and went, I longed for it, and I hoped that one day I could walk through the city like them." ”
Zhang Xiao said: "But most of the life in the city is unsatisfactory, some people have to work day and night in order to live in a place, for some work, have to learn to disguise, to their families, outsiders, it is difficult to tell the truth." It's actually not a good taste. ”
Zhuge Honghong said: "Although it is not comfortable, there will always be hope, they all firmly believe that they can change one day and get out of the sea of suffering." It's always good, unlike now, when nothing is happening, but you still feel like there's no tomorrow. ”
Zhang Xiao sighed, "There's no way, it's always coming." ”
Jiang Yinyin suddenly asked, "By the way, did you Red Wall say why the curse came?"
Zhang Xiao said: "Someone told me this, saying that because we humans have destroyed the natural environment, this is God's punishment for us. ”
Jiang Yinyin asked curiously: "Since you want to punish us, why don't you just attack us, and leave us so much time to prepare." Just like this time, there are so many people in the demon capital, if they make trouble, none of these people should be able to escape. ”
Zhang Xiao nodded, "I've thought about this, but I guess that this curse won't only punish some people, so it doesn't matter if the people here escape or not, this is just a landing point for them, not the main battlefield." They're going to be global, not a little bit of a projectile. That's why I said that the Jiang family won't touch you for the time being, because they are all busy running for their lives. ”
Zhuge Honghong also said: "I have also received some news before, many big families in the Red Heroes have begun to flee for their lives, and many families are still moving with their families. ”
Zhang Xiao asked curiously, "Where are they going to flee to?"
"Some went to the west, some to the north, and some to the country, and they went wherever they thought it was safe. Zhuge Honghong recalled.
"It should be very difficult to go abroad now, especially some time ago, the atmosphere in my country and many countries was a little tense. Zhang Xiao remembered that the year before last and last year, the international situation in Huaxia was a little grim, and I heard from netizens that they almost fought several times, and many places did not even accept Huaxia people.
"As long as you have money, nothing is impossible, I know a family who left Huaxia with their family and became Hengguo people. ”
"Joining other countries means giving up Chinese nationality, and it is not easy to add it back in the future. Zhang Xiao said.
"For them, it doesn't matter which nationality they are from, and having Chinese nationality can't save their lives, so they won't care. Zhuge Honghong said.
Zhang Xiao thought about it and felt that this was the reason, so he didn't say more.
A few people walked for a while, and finally came to a restaurant, but the owner of the store had already left, and there was nothing left in it, that is, some frozen meat in the refrigerator, and some cheap water and wine on the counter next to it. The three of them didn't dislike it, they took it casually, and then started the fire themselves, preparing to make a hot pot.
It's just that at this time, Li Mo suddenly made a phone call.
"Hey, Zhang Xiao, where is it?"
"On the hot pot, here in the Longemont shopping mall. ”
"Well, eat hot pot, right, do you mind adding a few people?"
"Okay, come on, I'll wait. ”
"Hmm. ”
hung up the phone over there, and Zhang Xiao also put away the phone. Zhuge Honghong asked, "Who is coming?"
"Li Mo. ”
"Oh, that genius. ”
"yes. Zhang Xiao smiled, probably feeling honored.
"I've been thinking about meeting this big man for a long time, but I haven't had a chance, and I didn't expect him to send it to the door by himself. ”
Zhang Xiao squinted at Zhuge Honghong, "Listen to your tone, are you trying to make trouble?"
Zhuge Honghong pushed his glasses, "The wisest thing about me is to be self-aware, knowing that if I am not his opponent, I will not mess around." ”
"And you want to?"
"Communication. ”
"He's a very good communicator, so you can have more contact with him. Zhang Xiao smiled, seemed to think of something again, and said: "But you'd better not be too polite, although he is very polite and gentle to everyone, in fact, he doesn't like to deal with him very much, if you have something, just say it directly." ”
"Don't worry, I don't like beating around the bush either. Zhuge Honghong took out a bunch of hairy tripes and fat sheep from the freezer and stacked them on the dining table in an orderly manner.
Jiang Yinyin is also helping on the side, although she has never done this, but with Zhang Xiao on the side to guide, she can be regarded as handy.
After almost an hour, Li Mo finally arrived. With him were the people from the last conference, Zhao Zhan, Murong Bing, Li Ke, Jia Xiong, and the one who borrowed a knife from Zhang Xiao - Wang Yiyi.
"Yo, it's coming, the hot pot is just right, come and eat. ”
"I can't imagine that there is such a good place, how did you find it?" Li Mo walked over and asked with a smile.
"Just look for it and find it, luckily. Zhang Xiao threw a large plate of fat beef into the hot pot and asked, "Can Li Mo eat spicy?"
Zhao Zhan said: "Of course you have to eat spicy hot pot, otherwise what kind of hot pot to eat." ”
Jia Xiong covered his face, twisted and said, "But people want to keep their skin good and don't want to eat spicy food, do you have a clear pot?"
Listening to such a greasy voice, Zhao Zhan clenched his fists, "I really don't match you, I twist and squirm like a girl." ”
Murong Bing on the side raised his eyebrows, "What's wrong with being like a girl? Do you look down on girls? Or is your mother not a girl?"
"Yes, it's still your mother who is not a girl, and she looks down on girls so much. Jia Xiong crossed his waist, like a lady scolding the street at the entrance of the village, and asked.
Zhao Zhan saw that such a beautiful Murong Bing came forward, and he couldn't say those words directly, so he had to say: "No, no, I don't mean to look down on women, I just don't like him A big man talks with a sharp voice, and that thing has orchid fingers, which is weird and crooked." ”
Murong Bing said: "If you feel tired, don't listen or look at it, no one will force you." ”
"yes, no one is forcing you. Jia Xiong said on the side.
Zhao Zhan glanced at Jia Xiong, but he had nothing to say to Murong Bing, so he had to stay honest.
Seeing that Zhao Zhan didn't speak, Jia Xiong thought that he had won back a city, and said with a smile: "Hahaha, how is it, I have nothing to say." He said to Murong Bing again: "Thank you so much for helping me speak, I ......"
Murong Bing hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Don't care, I just can't get used to him, and I didn't think about helping you." ”
"Ah, you care so much about people, and you pretend not to care, you're so cool. Let's sleep together at night. Jia Xiong hugged Murong Bing's arm and said.
Murong Bing's eyebrows twitched a few times, and finally he couldn't bear it anymore, and smashed his fist on Jia Xiong's head, "Who wants to sleep with you." ”
"No, no, I'm going to sleep with you, we're all sisters. ”
"Who is a sister with you, let go of me, you pervert!"
Crackling, Murong Bing beat Jia Xiong fat.
Zhang Xiao and Li Mo sat from a distance and watched, thinking it was very interesting, in this case, it was really rare to be able to play so easily and comfortably. So Li Mo smiled and asked, "Do you know why the order hasn't been given to us to retreat until now?"
Zhang Xiao shook her head.
"You can actually guess, you don't want to guess, it's just that you're afraid that the result will disappoint you, right?" asked Li Mo.
Zhang Xiao shook her head again, "There's nothing to be disappointed with, I just don't want to use my brain." ”
Li Mo smiled: "This is indeed your character, obviously very smart, but you don't want to use your brain, otherwise with your wisdom, you would have guessed the above mind." ”
Zhang Xiao said: "What if you guess correctly? We don't want to stay here yet. ”
"It's true that we have to stay here, but it doesn't matter if you leave one more here, and one less, you can ......" Li Mo stretched out his right index finger and middle finger, comparing his legs to running up in the center of his left hand.
Zhang Xiao shook his head and said: "Although the truth is like this, I think there is a lot less for me, and there is not much for me, so it may be useful to stay here." ”
"I guess you're going to say that, so I'm not going to advise you anymore. Then, we fought side by side, brothers together. Li Mo stretched out his right hand into a fist.
Zhang Xiao immediately realized and stretched out his fist to touch him, "Brothers together!"
The hot pot was ready, everyone sat down, and a few people who were not familiar with each other began to introduce themselves, and then talked and laughed while eating, so it was not lively. The men drank a lot of wine, talking about some things that they didn't have, and the two women sat on one side, interjecting a word or two from time to time that didn't hurt or not, and the men didn't care.
The hot pot restaurant is very lively, and the hot pot is signed.
