End of the World, Rebirth as a Queen

After waking up, Lu Zhu felt much more relaxed. A good rest is indeed more important than anything else.

I looked at the time and they slept for more than two hours.

Xuan Guang and Zhi Zhi were still asleep. The sound of rain outside had become much quieter, and it was now dripping onto the roof of the tent.

The visibility now is much higher than before.

Lu Zhu added some charcoal into the charcoal basin, then took out a kettle filled with spiritual spring water and placed it on the charcoal to boil water.

In such cold weather, a cup of hot water is necessary. Looking at the red charcoal, Lu Zhu suddenly remembered that there were potatoes and sweet potatoes planted before in his space.

Throw a few of them around the charcoal fire and roast them.

When I was a child, I always felt warm and sweet when I smelled the sweet roasted sweet potatoes in the winter.

I happened to have some free time today, so I baked some to reminisce the taste of my childhood.

In this small space, the three species live together in harmony and beauty.

When the sweet potatoes gave off a faint fragrance, Xuan Guang's nose moved involuntarily, and he flipped over and stood up.

Lu Zhu was startled, and Zhizhi, who was in her arms, also woke up and yawned loudly.

It jumped out of Lu Zhu's arms and performed a classic pull-up move. Zhizhi is a very standard cat!

Xuan Guang had already sat upright beside the charcoal brazier, his eyes fixed on the source of the fragrance.

Even closing my mouth I couldn't stop the crazy saliva secretion, and crystal clear tears hung down one after another, giving the feeling of a waterfall falling three thousand feet.

Xuan Guang could no longer see anything else, his eyes were fixed on the sweet potatoes.

Xuan Guang: It smells so good~ I've never eaten anything like this~

Zhizhi climbed onto Xuanguang's head, which was almost as big as a washbasin, and stared at the potatoes and sweet potatoes with shining eyes.

Lu Zhu pressed the sweet potatoes with her fingers and found that they were not cooked enough, so she turned them over with tongs to ensure more even heating.

When Xuan Guang and the others saw Lu Zhu using the tongs to flip the noodles, Xuan Guang's eyes didn't even move and his saliva was dripping like a cliff. In the end, Lu Zhu just flipped the noodles.

Xuan Guang was stunned. He closed his slightly opened mouth, licked the saliva in his mouth, tilted his big head, and looked pitifully at Lu Zhu's retracted pliers.

Xuanguang: "Woo~Woo" The master is so mean, why didn't he pick it out~

Lu Zhu looked at its little expression and reached out to pinch its face with amusement.

"It's not cooked yet! You'll get a stomachache if you eat it~" Lu Zhu pinched the soft flesh on its face, gently pulled it to both sides, and smiled.

The water was also boiled at this time. Lu Zhu took out the two guys' food bowls and poured some water into each of them.

I also put a few crystal cores next to them. The roasted sweet potatoes will take a while to be ready, so let them drink some water and eat some snacks first.

Although crystal cores are good things, Lu Zhu does not intend to try to transform the ones found in the bodies of alienated monsters, because there are human crystal cores inside, and the proportion of human crystal cores is still very high.

She didn't want to try it, because such an attempt would make her subconsciously think of the experiments in Dr. Crazy's laboratory in her previous life.

They used more than one crystal core extract on her. She didn't have a choice before, but now she has the conditions. Of course, she will still avoid the same kind if possible.

But Lu Zhu did not object to Xuan Guang and Zhi Zhi, because they were creatures in nature, and the survival of the fittest was their instinct for survival.

These have all turned into crystal cores, so there is no burden in using Luzhu on them, as long as they do not directly attack humans and make humans their food and turn them into ferocious beasts.

Lu Zhu could still accept eating this ready-made crystal core. After all, such supplies were quite difficult to obtain in the apocalypse.

The weather was very cold, and even the boiled water cooled down in a short time. Xuan Guang felt a little unwilling that he didn't get to eat what he had been craving for, but he still got up to drink and eat the crystal core.

The same goes for Zhizhi. Except that they are not of the same species, their activities are quite similar.

Xuan Guang, who was still unwilling to get angry at first, was no longer angry after drinking a sip of the water, because he tasted that this was the water from the spiritual spring.

The power of the spiritual spring itself, plus the crystal core, is just like taking a car to a 4S shop, adding high-quality windshield washer fluid and filling it up with gas.

Zhizhi felt the taste of the spiritual spring water and drank it happily.

All of a sudden, the sound of two foodies, one big and one small, licking the water with their tongues could be heard.

On the other side of the two mountains, Chen Hua and Fang Zhilong negotiated the personnel. Chen Hua chose Luo Chenyang, and Fang Zhilong chose Xiang Tianqi.

Both of them are speed users, and their speed is much faster than other people.

After giving them their exact coordinates, marking the shortest route on the map, and preparing enough food, the two of them put on raincoats and set off.

They walked very fast. Although the road was slippery and difficult to walk on due to the rain, with the help of their supernatural powers, they could still walk better than ordinary people.

Even at a marching speed, it would take eight to ten hours to cover 50 kilometers of mountain road. In such weather and with unknown road conditions, it would take even longer.

They brought food for almost five or six days. Why did they bring so much? Because Chen Hua took into account accidents, getting lost, and alienated animals and plants. Fifty kilometers is neither far nor near.

In case of aftershocks or accidents, at least they will have food to last longer and get rescued.

It can be said that Chen Hua’s considerations are very comprehensive, which is one of the reasons why so many people are willing to follow him.

Fortunately, Luo Chenyang and Xiang Tianqi were lucky enough not to encounter any aftershocks or get lost.

We stopped and started many times, and set out at around ten in the morning. After encountering a wave of aftershocks at around four-thirty in the afternoon, we successfully reunited with the base commander and his men.

Because it was already afternoon and it was unsafe to drive at night, and aftershocks were still occurring from time to time, the base commander decided to drive over at dawn the next day to meet up with Chen Hua and Fang Zhilong.

Lu Zhu was completely unaware of all this because she had been baking the entire afternoon. Except for sweet potatoes and potatoes, she had tried everything in the space that could be baked.

Originally, she just wanted to bake something to eat, but because of Xuanguang and Zhizhi, she became interested and baked a few big sweet potatoes for Zhizhi and Xuanguang.

Lu Zhu took out the barbecue grill, barbecue dipping sauce, and started the outdoor barbecue.

Roasted ham, roasted tofu, roasted leeks, roasted chicken legs and wings, roasted eggs, roasted beans, roasted pork belly, roasted ribs, roasted fish, roasted shrimps, roasted mushrooms, roasted eggplant, everything that can be roasted is arranged.

She also roasted bananas, pears, apples and oranges in the charcoal grill.

It doesn't matter if you finish the food or not, the important thing is to enjoy it. Anyway, there is space, so you can put the food you can't finish directly in it. This is also an opportunity to store cooked food.

In this small, simple tent in the wilderness, the air was filled with the aroma of barbecue. Because Lu Zhu didn't have any other activities, when Lu Zhu felt tired, it was already dark outside.

The pork belly was still sizzling on her grill. Lu Zhu dipped it in five-spice chili powder, rolled it up with lettuce leaves, and took a bite. The fragrance lingered in her mouth. She felt so satisfied.

After taking a sip of beer, Lu Zhu couldn't help but sigh: Ah! Delicious~

Not to mention the space, she had already put all the food that she had roasted but had not had time to eat this afternoon on the shelf that had been eaten previously.

Xuanguang and Zhizhi can only eat sweet potatoes because they are afraid of spicy food, but they can't eat too many sweet potatoes. Lu Zhu always feeds them in moderation.

After Xuan Guang ate five sweet potatoes and two potatoes and Zhizhi ate one sweet potato, Lu Zhu stopped feeding them.

He also asked Xuanguang to take Zhizhi for a walk outside and only gave them dinner after they came back.
