I rely on copies to build infrastructure

I don't know if they are used to the rhythm of the dungeon. Now that the players hear the bell of the melting pot, although they are flustered and nervous, they can't hide the excitement on their faces.

Since entering the wasteland dungeon, many people got all the ingredients for the first time. Although they also paid the price of heartache, at least everyone is standing on the same starting line, and the pie may fall on their own heads.

The difference between yesterday's champion and runner-up was only 0.3 points. There is no absolute advantage among the nine groups of players, and everyone has a chance.

"There are not as many top hats today as there were yesterday..."

Qin Lu opened the light sign at the door, waited and watched outside for a while, then turned and walked back to the shop.

Xi Ren lifted the two barrels of snake soup to the bar easily, and nodded when he heard his emotion.

"With what happened yesterday, they will only be more cautious."

"However, once it is confirmed that energy can be regenerated, there will be more than just a group of people coming tomorrow."

Qin Lu put his heart into today's snake soup, without any strange ingredients. The production process was supervised by Dirty Dirty, Dirty Dirty followed Qin Xiaolu step by step, without blinking his eyes, for fear of giving him a chance to mischief.

Fortunately, Qin Lu didn't really want to do anything today.

Everyone's ingredients are the same, and the fight is about taste and texture.

Today's highlight is to kill No. [-] store. For this goal, we must first ensure our own safety.

Qin Xiaolu made a real effort, peeled the snake meat and removed the blood foam, then sautéed it with crab oil until fragrant, then added the broth made from snake bones and simmered over low heat.He also found a kind of vanilla in the black pine forest, which tastes similar to rosemary. After it is out of the pan, put it into the inner shell of fresh pine cones while it is hot. , hook people gluttonous.

As soon as the samples came out, Xi Ren's eyes lit up.

Although the little servant is good at craftsmanship, he is often lazy on weekdays. If he makes some good things, he will sell them for money.

The green husk holds the milky white snake soup, and there are dots of greenery sprinkled on it. The freshness that hits the face makes people appetite, not to mention the sweet and sweet taste.

Xi Xiaoren ate his brows and eyes stretched, and the corners of his lips were slightly raised, giving the little servant a rare expression of satisfaction.

Qin Lu also filled a bowl for Zang Zang, and the boy's eyes turned red after only one mouthful, and he held the emerald green pine cone inner shell and said nothing.

"what happened?"

Qin Lu thought he didn't like the taste of snake soup.

"Is it not delicious?"

Dirty shook his head.

"good to eat."

He wiped away the tears that were about to overflow his eyes, lowered his head, and left the shop with a bowl in his hand.

Xi Xiaoren looked up at the sky.

"It's not yet business hours, what is he doing hiding so early?"

Qin Lu shook his head, and he followed out, only to find Zang Di standing at the edge of a wasteland in the backyard.

Holding the bowl of snake soup in his hand, he was staring blankly at the weeds on the ground, wondering what he was thinking.

The vegetable field attached to the NO.17 store there has been deserted for an unknown period of time, and overgrown with weeds.The weeds are very tempered. Whenever someone approaches, the leaves will fly away, and they will emit a strange smell from time to time, which is disgusting.

Qin Xiaolu had suffered a lot on the first day he came, and he didn't go near there on weekdays.Seeing that Di Zun was about to approach the danger zone, he stretched out his hand to give him a hand.

"Be careful, the grass can sting."

Dirty raised his head, gave him a blank look, then shook his head.

"Originally they wouldn't be like this."

--Snapped--

A dirty tear fell into the soil, the weeds were frightened and shook wildly, and an unpleasant smell quickly filled the air.

If the dirt is endless, he continued.

"Grandma, my grandma... once made snake soup for me."

"Crab butter is also used, which is fragrant and sweet. I could eat three bowls when it first came out of the pan. But now, everything is different."

"I tried my best, I tried all the ways I could think of, I wanted to restore it, but... how did it become like this?!"

He looked down at the grass again.

"Obviously...obviously...shouldn't be! Why...why?!"

Dirty and autistic, Qin Lu didn't know how to persuade him.

He stood silently with him for a while, then opened the virtual notebook casually, and found that the unlocking rate of the No. 17 shop had actually advanced to 67%!

The progress bar broke through 2/3 in an instant. Obviously, the snake soup brought back dirty memories, and the trigger is the key node for module exploration!

In fact, he has always thought that this wave of two-legged snakes that regularly attack the food street is very interesting. Players need to take the initiative to search for other ingredients in Wasteland City, but the two-legged snake is particularly unique.Not only will they take the initiative to deliver food to the door, but they will also show up on time from morning to night, as if they are afraid that the players will not notice.

Now that the puzzle is solved, snakes are really special.Because Dirty's grandma once made delicious snake soup for Dirty, and she knows Wasteland City very well, but Dirty always makes mistakes in the details. The significance of snakes to him is self-evident.

Moreover, Di Zun is still deliberately avoiding the citizens of Wasteland City.So is he the lord of Wasteland City, or the engineer Nailin who built the melting pot?

But there is no rush.

Judging from past experience, the unlocking of modular buildings requires an opportunity, no matter how bad it is, there are risks and challenges that can be fought, and there is no need to force NPCs.

With Xi Xiaoren's precedent, it is difficult for Qin Lu to treat the dungeon NPC as data anymore. He prefers to wait for things to happen naturally, and wait for Zang Zang to open his heart and tell his story willingly.

——Dangdang——

There was a knock on the wooden door, and the first diner had already arrived.

Qin Lu came back to his senses, and hurried out to meet the guests, only to find that it was Titi, the cyborg who booked the venue on the first day.

Maybe it was because yesterday's performance was really bad. Today, the No.17 store is deserted and the crowds gather in the front street store area. Yesterday's top ones are particularly popular.

Only Titi, after being expelled by the high-ranking nobles yesterday, stubbornly returned to NO.17 store today.

He couldn't forget the feeling when he ate mille-feuille pie for the first time, it was a feeling he had never experienced before, his body was warm and light, and he felt relaxed from the inside out.

He also went to two stores yesterday. How should I put it, although the taste is good, but it always feels lukewarm and lacks the taste, not as shocking as the first day.

Therefore, Ti Ti decided that the NO.17 store is his real taste!

"Boss, give me three...ah no, five first!"

Titi stuffed the tokens prepared in advance into the cash box, and sat back to the position on the first day skillfully.

The NO.17 shop is located in a remote location, with dim lighting, and it is not as lively as the shop concentration area on Qianjie Street, but it makes Titi feel extremely at ease and relaxed.

He himself didn't know why, it might be that the house with the orange light in the memory implant vaguely coincided with the NO.17 store at this moment.

"coming."

Qin Lu pulled out his broken scooter again.

The cyborg put in too many tokens, which had already reached the limit of the supply. Anyway, there was only one guest tonight, and it saved the trouble of carrying dishes back and forth by pulling the snake soup bucket.

"You eat, I'll help you add rice, today's special is butter snake soup."

As Qin Xiaolu spoke, he quickly put the food on the table.

Titi glanced at him and nodded.

Anyway, he is not a delicate person. The attitude of this inferior person is a bit casual, but it does save him the time to wait for the meal...

With the first sip of snake soup in my mouth, all the dissatisfaction with Titi disappeared, and I even felt that the boss's electronics are really great, and the service is extremely considerate!

For such a delicious thing, putting it on a plate is a waste of time, he wished he could hold that pot and pour it into his mouth!

pat- pat-

A few tears fell from Titi's right eye.

Qin Lu stopped the spoon for adding soup, looked at it for a while, and found that the cyborg on the opposite side didn't seem to notice it, and was still stuffing food into his mouth wholeheartedly.

He didn't make a sound, and his attitude was the same as before.

Under the dim streetlights, the chef and the diners sit opposite each other, one burying his head in hard work, the other silently adding to the meal, quietly establishing a new connection.

It wasn't until the last bit of snake soup in the bowl was licked up that Titi let out a long sigh of relief and nodded in satisfaction.

"Delicious, really delicious."

Qin Lu handed him a piece of paper and motioned him to wipe his face first.

Titi was taken aback for a moment, only to realize that she was crying, and even wet the table in front of her.

"I...why am I leaking water?"

He immediately took out the monitor and quickly checked his steam value.During the eating period, Titi's steam value curve changed very drastically, with several peaks and troughs during the period, and finally stabilized, increasing the total amount of steam.

"It was fine at first, what's the matter with these few reductions? Did I do anything to consume steam?"

Titi couldn't understand it.

"Maybe it's because you cried?"

Qin Lu tentatively said.

"Why are you crying?"

"cry?"

The cyborg looked blank, "What is crying? Does it mean that the eyes are leaking?"

Qin Lu nodded and continued to guide his thoughts.

"Have you thought of something bad?"

"Bad things……"

Titi recalled it.

"Every day is the same, there is nothing bad about it. If I have to say it, it should be that your snake soup has a very special taste. I always feel as if I have eaten it somewhere."

"Well, maybe I didn't eat it, maybe it was a memory, just like when I saw your house, I felt familiar, but I don't remember when I came here."

such.

Qin Lu nodded, then asked again.

"Could it be that the elders in your family once did it to you..."

"what?"

Before he finished asking, Titi was surprised.

"What elders? I don't have elders."

"Citizens of the Wasteland are all individuals, independent from birth, even the city lord."

"The social structure you mentioned was before the era of nuclear explosions, and now it can only be seen in popular science education. Tsk tsk, in a world without pollution and radiation, memory sets related to this theme are very cheap and false Spirit, 1 anesthesia, 1 intoxication, 1 product, have no real value, and the Wasteland City Management Office has banned the sale of it!"

Having said that, he paused and scratched his head in confusion.

"But I do feel that the smell is very familiar, as if someone made it for me, and I feel uncomfortable when I think about it."

He looked down at the steam monitor.

Sure enough, the amount of steam decreased slightly.

Titi frowned.

He is not a fool, he is naturally aware of the influence of emotions on steam value.

This is an open secret, there is nothing happy in the wasteland city, so the nobles of the wasteland buy and implant virtual memories, the low-level citizens prefer cheap entertainment, and burning inferior people at the steam festival will make them feel instant excitement.

Titi once bought a set of second-hand memory chips on the black market. It was dilapidated, and I don’t know how many people used it. It contained scenes such as light cabins, food, countryside, and the sea.

This is different from the steam technology memories that are allowed to be sold on the market. The too primitive scenery can no longer stimulate his numb nerves, because in the world of wasteland, there are no mountains or seas, only foul-smelling swamps and mottled mines.

This is the only memory chip owned by Titi, but he never knew that the memory chip will also affect the steam reserve!

The original delicious food increased the steam value a lot, but the sadness and nostalgia in his memory made him consume 10% of the precious steam for nothing!

No wonder the city lord forbids selling it, this is a dangerous product with venom inside!I will never come to this store again!If any emotions are triggered again, wouldn't his steam be lost? !

Thinking of this, Titi didn't dare to stay any longer, and slipped away after giving the score indiscriminately.

He walked in a hurry, as if being chased by some monster, and soon disappeared into the vast night.

Qin Lu was inexplicable, he didn't understand why the attitude of such a good diner suddenly changed drastically.

But it's not completely useless. The NO.17 store has a score of 8.5 tonight, and all the food is sold out, so he and Xiao Ren can call it a day.

In the case of reduced steam, NO.17 can still get such a high score. It has to be said that grandma's snake soup is very powerful.

Dirty, or should I call him the Great Engineer Nerin...

Got you.
