Chapter 275 The Stock of Short-haired Rats
Lu Youyou took some potatoes and yams from her planting box and moved them to the gang's planting area.
So far, there are 5 types of crops planted inside, and there are 15 left to choose from.
She sent a message in the gang group, asking everyone to say what they wanted to grow and then vote.
Although Lu Youyou won't divide all the mature crops equally among the members, ensuring that everyone eats and drinks from the farm for three meals a day is not a problem at all.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone chimed in, and in no time, hundreds of different suggestions were made.
Lu Youyou asked them to discuss it in the group chat, while she went into the folding kitchen to prepare the high-quality fresh bamboo shoots that Xiao Cui had given her.
The main dishes like fresh bamboo shoot and pork rib soup take too long to prepare, and the impatient Lu Youyou can't wait that long; she wants to eat the fresh bamboo shoots as soon as possible.
If she weren't unaccustomed to eating raw bamboo shoots, she would have chewed them raw, bite by bite.
What dishes should be cooked to have the shortest waiting time?
I've got it! Stir-fried bamboo shoots.
Without further ado, Lu Youyou washed the fresh bamboo shoots, sliced them thinly, and set them aside. Then, she heated oil in a wok, added scallions, ginger, and garlic to sauté until fragrant, and then added the bamboo shoot slices to stir-fry.
In just a few minutes, the stir-fried bamboo shoots are cooked. Add an appropriate amount of salt to taste before serving, and the dish is done.
She opened the Food Factory app and scanned the recipe for stir-fried bamboo shoots.
Congratulations on receiving the recipe - Stir-fried Bamboo Shoots.
Only then did Lu Youyou take out her chopsticks.
Since she was eating alone anyway, she decided to eat directly from the pot to avoid washing a separate plate.
The bamboo shoots were crisp and tender, carrying an indescribable warm power that flowed slowly through her body.
As she continued to eat the bamboo shoots, Lu Youyou felt that the blurred vision caused by the polar night had been cured.
Actually, she didn't realize that her eyesight might be the problem before she ate the bamboo shoots.
As things gradually became clearer, she realized that there was something wrong with her eyes.
Fortunately, the problem was cured as soon as it was discovered.
"Zizi~"
"Guru Guru~"
A strange sound came to my ears, like someone blowing bubbles?
"what sound?"
The three little ones looked at Lu Youyou with confusion, and simultaneously opened their mouths in surprise.
After realizing what had happened, Xiao Hei patrolled the entire vehicle before returning to confirm, "There were no enemy footsteps, and no unfamiliar smells."
Lu Youyou asked in surprise, "Didn't you hear the gurgling sound?"
Da Rui and Xiao Ya shook their heads at the same time, then stared at Xiao Hei.
Xiao Hei: "I... I can keep hearing this sound, but isn't that the breathing of the monster under the ice? Could it be some other monster in disguise?"
"The breathing sound of a monster at the bottom of the ice?" Lu Youyou repeated incredulously.
“Yes.” Xiao Hei nodded.
Lu Youyou knew from the beginning that the high-quality fresh bamboo shoots Xiao Cui gave her could make people's hearing and vision clear, but she did not expect it to be to this extent.
She quickly finished the remaining fresh bamboo shoots in the pot, leaving not a single scrap.
Then she climbed onto the roof and looked into the distance. In the darkness, she saw a dilapidated house by the roadside.
She didn't know exactly how far away she was looking at, but since the navigation hadn't announced any stops yet, it meant she was more than 100 meters away.
The snoring of the monster at the bottom of the ice in my mind became even more pronounced.
She could even hear the monsters talking.
"Really? We've been given another task. I don't want to break ice anymore. My hands hurt so much every time I break ice."
"Don't worry, we won't let you break the ice. The adults said we can only carry out the task after the weather warms up and the ice melts."
"Are you sure the mission above is for us to kill humans who are kindest to the extreme? Isn't kindness a good thing?"
"Who knows? Perhaps someone who is too kind... is incapable of completing the great task entrusted to them by their superiors?"
The sounds that followed were intermittent, and Lu Youyou could not hear them clearly.
They may have gone from open discussion to whispers.
Lu Youyou gleaned two pieces of information from their conversation: the temperature would rise in the near future, and the monsters would kill kind people in a few days.
No, to be precise, they are people who are kind to the extreme.
But how is this "extreme kindness" defined? And who determines it? Is it based on each survivor's past performance, or is a new test introduced?
Even though Lu Youyou had a lot of questions, no one could answer them for her.
squeak--
The car stopped.
On the left is the dilapidated house she had seen before.
"Navigation system, why didn't you warn me beforehand this time?"
[I reminded you, but you didn't hear me.]
Well, it seems she was too engrossed in her thoughts just now, and even with the added benefit of clear hearing and sight, she was able to deliberately ignore a certain sound.
"Little Crow, come down with me. Little Black and Big Rui will stay in the car and keep watch."
"Okay," the three little ones said in unison.
Lu Youyou put on an adult raincoat, opened her small floral umbrella, and walked into the dilapidated house.
The house appears to be a single-story building from the outside, but inside it is a three-story building, only the lower floors are built.
There's nothing to see on the ground floor; it's empty, covered in cobwebs and some rotten things whose original form is unrecognizable.
The basement level was like a storage room, filled with boxes of all sizes.
Lu Youyou took out the trash tongs, gripped the box handle, and lifted the lid.
The golden light was dazzling.
Surprisingly, they were all filled with golden sweet potatoes?
Lu Youyou thought she was hallucinating, so she rubbed her eyes hard, but the golden light in front of her remained unchanged.
She opened all the boxes in one go, and they were all filled with golden sweet potatoes.
If you stare at something for too long, the virtual instruction manual will automatically start.
Sweet potatoes: the favorite snack of short-haired mice; they especially love fried sweet potatoes.
The above does not mention the effects of sweet potatoes or information about short-haired mice.
It's better to avoid trouble. She has plenty of food now and doesn't need these sweet potatoes.
Lu Youyou turned around and went down to the second basement level.
Just like the first basement level, the second basement level was covered with boxes filled with green-glowing sweet potatoes.
[Green potatoes: the second favorite food of short-haired mice, especially roasted green potatoes.]
Thinking that short-haired mice like to eat fried sweet potatoes and roasted green potatoes, Lu Youyou suddenly laughed out loud, finding it quite cute.
Similarly, she has no shortage of food and has no intention of taking away the green potatoes that the short-haired mice like.
Even though it glows, it gives the impression of enhancing one's abilities.
She turned to go upstairs, but suddenly remembered what the monsters at the bottom of the ice were talking about.
In time, they will kill the kindest of people.
So, if she came to the short-haired mouse's lair but didn't take anything with her, is that considered the epitome of kindness?
Thinking of this, Lu Youyou reached out and touched the treasure chest, putting a box of green potatoes into her backpack. After going upstairs, she took a box of golden potatoes with her.
She felt relieved, returned to her car, washed the chopsticks and pot she had just used, and went to bed.
After falling into a deep sleep.
"Squeaky-"
"Squeak squeak!"
