Reborn in the end of the world, I scavenged in the empty city and bought for free

Xu Qingzhi's loud shout immediately drew everyone's attention to him, especially Xuyang who was sitting next to him playing with his phone and was almost shocked by his shout.

Ye Ziqiu glanced at him and wondered why this kid was so jumpy. Could it be that he was obsessed with playing games with Liu Hun recently?

Ever since the extreme heat period began, Xu Qingzhi has been dragged by Liu Hun to play stand-alone games, which are similar to the game consoles of the past. As long as you have a game controller, you can play against others. It seemed quite boring before, but in the end times it has become a rare electronic entertainment project.

Xu Qingzhi stood up and walked to the balcony. His eyes fell precisely on the self-built building opposite. He sniffed somewhere and said confidently, "It's the meat buns. It seems someone is steaming buns in the small building opposite."

"Yes, yes, I was wondering what it smelled like. Yes, it was the smell of meat buns. But it smelled really good. How come it was different from the hard stone you made, Zi Qiu? Yours had no fragrance or meaty taste, only salty flavor."

Ye Ziqiu sneered, and Liu Hun suddenly felt a dark object coming towards him, so he quickly dodged to the side and saw a steamed bun made by Ye Ziqiu a few days ago lying alone on the floor.

It’s just that the hardness of this steamed bun is really hard to eat. When it is just steamed, you can eat it as chewy gluten. But once it gets cold, the steamed bun can be used as a weapon, just like it can make a "bang" sound when it is hit on the ground.

In fact, it is not Ye Ziqiu’s fault that her dumplings-making skills are not good. The main reason is that the flour currently sold at the base is divided into "fine flour" and "coarse flour", and is sold in three grades of "high, medium and low" according to quality.

Ye Ziqiu usually buys rice, flour, grain, oil and other things in the food area of ​​the trading center, and he buys the best ones. However, the mutant wheat developed by the Academy of Agricultural Sciences is still incomparable to the wheat before the end of the world. First of all, no matter how the wheat is ground, it will still have a grainy feeling. Secondly, the taste will be mixed with a musty smell, and the worse the quality, the more obvious the smell.

In fact, this type of wheat is not suitable for making buns. She even tried using it to make dumplings. However, the rolled dough turned out to be hard and tough after being boiled in water, and tasted like rubber band. The steamed buns also did not taste satisfactory. Instead, they tasted slightly better when made into pancakes with a paste, or they could be eaten after being baked.

Now some of the bun shops outside the base have also purchased special yeast powder separately, so the fermented dough will be much better than what they make at home. At least the buns just out of the steamer are still soft, but once they cool down, they will be difficult to chew. Therefore, several bun shops on the commercial street dare not put leftover buns in the refrigerator once they have them. No matter how many times the buns are steamed after quick freezing, they will not be able to return to their previous softness.

Xu Qingzhi's words "meat buns" actually aroused the interest of Xuyang who was standing next to him. He was a typical northerner and his favorite food was pasta. After hearing Xu Qingzhi's words, he ran to the balcony and sniffed hard. In addition to the sulfuric acid smell brought by the acid rain, he could really smell the faint aroma of steamed buns. He had smelled the smell of steamed dough almost since he was a child, so he was so excited that his voice trembled. "It's really steamed buns, absolutely, and this aroma must be meat buns."

"It must be our new neighbor across the street. The small building has been built for almost two months, and we haven't seen the owner yet." Liu Hun even took out the telescope he usually used for tasks. Although the distance was only thirty or forty meters, it seemed that he could see the situation on the opposite side with the telescope.

Ye Ziqiu reminded him with some disgust: "Liu Hun, you are invading other people's privacy. You act like a stalker. You are really a bit perverted."

"Hey, what a pervert, I'm just curious about our new neighbor. It's been such a long time, and I don't think I've seen him in person."

"I've seen them. They seemed to be a boy and a girl, two siblings." Xuyang's voice was very soft, but every word fell into the ears of Liu Hun, who was very gossipy.

"Sister and brother? Have you met them in person?" Liu Hun asked curiously.

Xuyang frowned, shook his head first, then nodded, "Sister has only seen him from a distance, he looks about 23 or 24 years old. The boy is often seen entering and leaving the yard, he looks about 17 or 18 years old, and looks several years younger than me and Aokiji."

"Then the brother and sister should both be supernatural beings, otherwise how could two young people afford such a nice house so easily? It's a self-built building, and it's close to our villa area. I asked before, and the land there costs several thousand points per square meter, plus the materials for building the house. For example, the house with a front and back yard is about 300 square meters in total, and you can't get it without 300,000 points."

"I don't think so. Perhaps it was the villagers nearby before the base was built. As long as they have land certificates, they can use the land here for free. But it is indeed not easy to build two small buildings." Liu Hun touched his chin and sighed.

The members of their hunting team already earn several times more than ordinary people. In addition, they receive crystal cores from hunting mutant beasts and various dangerous job allowances. Their monthly income already ranks among the top 2% of the base's income group in the high-income group.

Even so, it is unlikely that they can easily come up with hundreds of thousands of dollars to build a building. It is not only a matter of money, but also the trouble of purchasing building materials. After all, no one knows when the next natural disaster will come. It is better to live in the small villas distributed by the base to high-level psychics.

Geng Zimo had just finished wiping and reassembling his sniper rifle, so he stretched and glanced at the house below. Suddenly, he saw that the roof of the second floor was covered with tiles.

"The owner of this house even applied an anti-corrosion coating on the roof. He is quite far-sighted and has considered everything, including the yard, drainage channels, and water storage towers. It is really comprehensive."

Geng Zimo was very interested in their new neighbors at this time. After all, someone who could think of such a comprehensive plan at this moment, if not a prophet, must be someone with great doomsday survival skills and certain experience.

But according to Xuyang, the owners of the house were a young brother and sister who were only in their early twenties before the apocalypse. The fact that the sister was able to bring her brother to gain a foothold in the base and have their own house was definitely not as simple as it seemed.

"Don't be so surprised. You know how many richer people there are in our villa area. Don't you? The two small villas behind us have their own swimming pools? They even held a pool party when it was extremely hot last month. They invited two B-level ice-type psychics to come and cool down the water in the pool. It is said that they are the nephew of the base director. It seems that this nephew is managing the largest foreign trade company in the base."

"Tsk, there really are people with connections everywhere. I also want to have a powerful relative." Liu Hun couldn't help but sneer.

Fang Tang, who was already full at this time, stroked his bloated belly and grinned, showing his big white teeth: "Don't you always say that you are their father?"

Liu Hun glared at Fang Tang unhappily. He really didn't know that this big guy, who usually looked silly, could be so good at teasing people.

Normally, Liu Hun would often curse those children of power and wealth when he got angry while playing games. This was because when he was carrying out a mission before, he had to go to the Superpower Management Bureau to handle relevant procedures. As a result, he met a child of power and wealth who had a strong backing. The two of them had a quarrel. The other party was also a Class B superpower, and they almost had a fight in the bureau. Fortunately, a small leader nearby intervened. However, that child of power and wealth was quite arrogant. He kept saying that he wanted to kill Liu Hun and didn't take the Hunter Team seriously at all.

It is said that in the end, the family of the son of the powerful knew that it was a hunting team, and the team leader was Chen Yanxi, so they suppressed the matter and did not allow the powerful man to act rashly and provoke Chen Yanxi.

Although the troublesome matter was resolved because the other party was afraid of the captain, Liu Hun still held a grudge against them. He hated these children of the powerful and wealthy, and would mention "whipping corpses" from time to time.

Ye Ziqiu was almost full. If it weren't for the jam she bought earlier, she wouldn't even be able to eat the toast. She hadn't been able to contact the young boss since it became extremely hot. She didn't know if the young boss didn't like to use his mobile phone to surf the Internet from time to time. She sent many messages but none of them seemed to have fallen on deaf ears. There was really no response at all.

By one or two o'clock in the afternoon, the smell of meat buns on the balcony became stronger and stronger. Perhaps it was because the rain was lighter at this time, so the pungent smell would dissipate a little, but there was always white smoke rising from the self-built building, and it was obvious that someone in the house was cooking.

"These two siblings are not planning to open a restaurant, are they? They are taking advantage of the acid rain season to make delicious food at home. It would be great if we were closer. If we can't go over, we could say hello and maybe even get a delicious meal for free." Liu Hun joked, touching his chin.

As a result, Ye Ziqiu rolled her eyes, "How dare you say that."

"That's right. It's a matter of reciprocity. I didn't say it's free. You should bring some gifts with you."

Several people in the villa area were chatting idly, but Chen Yanxi received a message from Gu Tongwan in the bedroom on the second floor.

In the dim room, an extremely thin layer of frost tightly covered the entire wall, floor and even the ceiling. The frost reflected a cold luster in the little light that came through the crack in the door.

On the huge bed, the man was lying on his back wearing only a black shirt, one hand covering his eyelids, under the slightly open collar was a protruding Adam's apple and a perfectly shaped collarbone, his long legs were slanted on the edge of the bed, revealing a sense of laziness and indulgence under the cold air.

The hands resting on the eyelids were cold, white and slender, with slightly protruding finger bones, full of strength and sharpness.

When he heard the message alert from his mobile phone, he did not reach out to look for the phone immediately. His Adam's apple rolled slightly, and then he moved his fingers away, revealing a pair of cold eyes that seemed to be penetrated by the darkness.

Chen Yanxi usually spends most of his time in his room except when he is on a mission. Firstly, he doesn't like to go out and socialize. Secondly, his powerful intimidation can easily drive some people away. Moreover, deep down in his heart, he refuses to make close friends with others.

However, few people dared to disturb him when he was resting. Even Fang Tang, who had known him for many years, would not easily step into the "field" he had established.

Generally, S-level psychics can establish their own "domain", which means they can control everything in a certain range, including the direction of wind and the density of air. People who step into this domain basically become "birds in a cage", basically they can only be dominated and cannot resist, unless their own psychic level is stronger than the person who established the "domain".

Normally, he would not be moved by any information, but for some reason today Chen Yanxi had a feeling that he needed to take a look at his phone.

Perhaps it was this so-called feeling that made him finally pick up his phone and glance at the message on it.

Suddenly, light seemed to penetrate into those cold eyes, and the cold and violent aura on his body dissipated by more than half at once.

Gu Tongwan [Eat steamed buns? I made them myself, with preserved vegetables, pork, and beef vermicelli fillings.]

After sending the message, Gu Tongwan glanced at the rain that was still falling outside and suddenly felt that he was making things difficult for others. He couldn't go to deliver the gift during this acid rain season, and he couldn't let Chen Yanxi go out at risk.

Just when she was hesitant and was still thinking about how to reply in a polite way but still explaining the current situation, the other side replied with an "OK" very quickly.

This confused Gu Tongwan. Although he was the one who asked the question, he was the one who was embarrassed in the end.

He glanced at the acid rain outside and suddenly remembered that there was a set of rain gear in the space. It was a complete set of raincoat and rain boots that could resist acid rain corrosion. He had worn it two or three times when he encountered acid rain in the empty city. However, he could only move within a limited range and only when it was drizzling.

Thinking of this, Gu Tongwan quickly jumped up from the bed, first put on a slightly thick denim jacket and jeans, and then took out a raincoat from the space.

The raincoat is a pullover style with sleeves, which makes movement easier but also makes it more waterproof.

Yan Fan, who was originally watching the last batch of buns in the steamer, preparing to pack them up and put them in the refrigerator after they were ready, heard a burst of hurried footsteps coming from the stairs.

The first person who came into view was Gu Tongwan wearing a raincoat. She rushed into the kitchen with a double-layer plastic lunch box in her hand, and I saw her starting to stuff buns into it.

Unfortunately, the lunch box could only hold five or six buns, so she went back upstairs and got another lunch box in her hand, which she filled again.

Not only that, she was also cooking dumplings again. She put about twenty hot dumplings into the lunch box before she wiped the sweat from her forehead with satisfaction.

"Sister Wanwan, are you going out?" Yan Fan looked at her outfit curiously, and it was obvious that she was going out.

Gu Tongwan nodded, carrying two large full lunch boxes in his hands, and walked to the entrance. "Okay, I'm going to go out and get something for my friend. I'll be back in ten minutes." After saying that, he was about to go out.

"Your raincoat is not good. It will be damaged by acid rain..." Yan Fan said worriedly.

"No problem. I bought this at an outdoor goods store. I used it several times during the acid rain period. It's very corrosion-resistant." She talked nonsense without any reason, not caring whether Yan Fan believed it or not. Then she saw her light green water shoes stepping on the puddles formed by acid rain, and she disappeared outside the yard.
