Chapter Fifty-eight Midnight

After his body mutated, Xiang Kun no longer needed to eat, or could not eat.

The only things that can be eaten without vomiting are water and blood, and naturally there is no need to cook or cook.

What's more, even before the mutation, he seldom cooked by himself, at most he made instant noodles or something in the rented house.

However, the memory of the giant owl rummaging through the garbage and finding the rabbit carcass he packed made him realize that his domestic garbage was very different from normal people.

What is the household garbage of ordinary people?

All kinds of kitchen scraps, used tissues and toilet paper, bottles and cans, various garbage bags, and various other items.

But what about Xiang Kun's garbage?

Except for the rabbit carcasses that were packed layer by layer, there was very little other garbage, basically only some packaging bags, plastic bags, etc., as well as the poop and leftover food from cleaning the rabbit cage.

Because he doesn't sweat very much now, doesn't need to eat, let alone snacks, drinks, and consumes very little paper towels, so the trash can is often empty.

Of course, the garbage classification method implemented in their city is not very strict now. Although there are four-color buckets, many people still only use one garbage bag to throw garbage into the kitchen bucket, so there will be no waste. No one pays attention to his garbage, but it is always a hidden danger.

Moreover, when he bought the rabbit and came back, when he entered the community, he would inevitably be seen by others.

It doesn't matter once or twice, anyway, he doesn't buy it every day, but after a long time, someone will definitely notice it.

When he buys a rabbit, he should always have an explanation to the outside world.

So Xiang Kun didn't throw away the three rabbit corpses after drinking blood this time. Instead, they processed them a little and put them in the refrigerator to freeze.

He found several recipes for rabbit meat on the Internet. When he came back today, he went to the supermarket to buy all the ingredients he needed and the kitchen utensils that were missing in the kitchen.

Three rabbits, he is going to use three methods.

Braised rabbit meat, spicy rabbit meat, stewed rabbit meat...

Xiang Kun didn't bother to thaw it slowly, so he just soaked it in hot water. Anyway, he wouldn't really eat it, but just practiced it.

Handling rabbit meat and cutting into pieces, the knife skills were a bit jerky at the beginning, but it quickly became smooth. Although it is far from a chef, it looks good at first glance, as if it has never been cooked before. novice.

After all, not only is he very strong now, but also his ability to control various muscle groups, the grasp of strength, and the flexibility of his fingers and wrists are much better than ordinary people.

It was already early morning, but for Xiang Kun, it was the time for him to be mentally active, and his body was also in excellent condition.

He opened a music app with his mobile phone, pressed random play, and placed it next to the seasoning table.

The volume is only adjusted to one level. Even if the range hood is not turned on, the knife is not on the table, and the oil is not on the pan, it is basically difficult for ordinary people to hear what is singing a cappella, so there is no need to worry about disturbing the neighbors.

But for Xiang Kun, as long as he wants, the sound of the music can be heard clearly, no worse than wearing headphones, even the noise of cooking can't cover up the details of the music - not only The reason why his hearing has been mutated and strengthened is the result of his training during these days.

Whether it is to accurately capture the sound you want from a bunch of noises, or to lock in the taste you want from various smells, these are Xiang Kun's basic operations now, and he can do it instinctively.

The random song on the phone was something Xiang Kun had never heard before, but the lyrics and music were quite beautiful.

In the past, when Xiang Kun was doing some repetitive work that didn't require much thinking, he would plug in his headphones and listen to music while working. However, after his body mutated, he opened the music app basically to test and train his hearing, and he hasn't really listened to music for a long time.

In rhythmic singing,

Xiang Kun was cutting rabbit meat faster and faster.

You cannot leave when you really wanna go,

You know the road is better than the show,

And darkness makes you glow...

Cut peppers and onions into pieces, put the oil in the pan, put the peppercorns, star anise, and dried chilies into the pan and sauté until fragrant.

...Hey~hey~hey~hey~it's a brand new day, ah~ha~

Hey~hey~hey~hey~it's a bround new day...

Put the rabbit meat into the pot and stir fry.

The music cut to the next song, with a stronger sense of rhythm. Xiang Kun's hand holding the shovel couldn't help following the rhythm, and the soles of his feet tapped to the beat.

“In a world full of followers~

I'll be a leader!

In a world full of doubts~

I'll be a believer!

I'm stepping out without a ~

I ain't got nothing left to be afraid...

Add soy sauce, add cooking wine, stir-fry, shake the left hand, the rabbit meat in the pot churns up, the spatula in the right hand is also thrown out, quickly turned 720 degrees and then hold it firmly, but the rabbit meat is spilled Half of them are in Yantai...

Xiang Kun also sang in some out-of-key and substandard English:

“Gonna be making it count~~~~I ~am~ sold out (broken sound)~”

Add sugar, salt, and serve.

Taste it, chew it for a while, then spit it out.

Well, the taste is...not great.

Although he doesn't need to eat now and spits up whatever he eats, his sense of taste has not deteriorated.

And because there is no influence of appetite, on the contrary, there is a more objective and clear judgment on the taste of food.

He dumped all the spicy rabbit meat into the trash can, and Xiang Kun began to prepare the second rabbit meat dish.

The music also cut to the next song, um, this is a song he has heard before, Demons by Imagine Dragons, still shaking his shoulders while cooking, humming along with his incongruous singing voice and inaccurate English Sing it:

Your eyes, they shine so bright~

I wanna save that light~

I can't escape this now~~

Unless you show me how (broken sound x2)~~~”

Xiang Kun danced with a shovel, and almost turned a spatula into a thunderbolt knife, and the song he sang along became a Hokkien song The Price of a Hero, which remained out of tune:

Hey (broken sound x3)~~~~~Loneliness is the price of a hero~

Hey (broken sound x4)~~~~~~~ One step away is a deep pit~~~

Two minutes later, it changed into Cantonese, and continued to go out of tune following Beyond's voice:

I have been burdened with hardships, regrets and sighs~~~

Your eyes are full of tears at this moment~~

This world has been unknowingly empty (broken sound x5)~~

Aww~~~Don't go if I don't want you~

The braised rabbit meat was out of the pot, and Xiang Kun threw the spatula over his head. The spatula, which he bought just this afternoon and cost less than 10 yuan, was spinning rapidly in the air. After Xiang Kun put the rabbit meat on the plate, he raised his hand to catch it firmly.

The song on the phone still continued, this time it was Jacky Cheung, and Xiang Kun sang impassionedly, but of course, it was still out of tune:

Against all living beings~~~call the wind and rain at the mercy~

Deleting the common people is justified~

Confused all beings, Qiushan is actually higher than the sky~~

And the red leaves finally show their arrogance!

Suddenly there was a knock on the door, interrupting Xiang Kun, who was preparing the third rabbit meat dish and singing high. He frowned and looked in the direction of the door. Judging from the sound, there were two people outside the door , Judging from the smell, both of them should be men, with a strong smell of sweat and smoke.

He glanced at his phone, it was already 3 o'clock in the morning, who would come to the door at this time?

Moreover, every building in their community has an access control system. It stands to reason that they should ring the doorbell first. Why would they knock on the door directly?

Suspicious in his heart, Xiang Kun turned off the gas and walked towards the door.

He wasn't worried about bad people coming to the door. After fighting the giant owl, he knew very well that if there were two ordinary people outside the door, unless they had hot weapons, they should be fine for one-on-two.

What's more, with his recovery ability, he has a high fault tolerance.

But when he passed the living room, he still held a screwdriver in his hand.

Looking outside from the cat's eye, he was surprised to find that the security guards from the two communities were standing at the door, and he had seen them all before, so they were definitely not fakes.

After hiding the screwdriver, Xiang Kun opened the door with some puzzlement.

Mr. Xiang, I'm sorry to bother you. We rang the doorbell and you didn't open it, so we had to knock on the door. After opening the door, the older security guard said.

Xiang Kun was a little strange: Did you ring the doorbell? He didn't hear it. Could it be that he was too focused on cooking and at the same time his auditory attention was on the phone?

Maybe I was just writing the code and I didn't hear it. What are you looking for me so late? Xiang Kun said casually.

Mr. Xiang, if you want to sing at home, please keep your voice down. It's too late now. The sound insulation here is not very good. Many owners have called and complained. You are singing too loudly... The older security guard looked on Said a little strangely.

Hearing this, Xiang Kun froze suddenly, as if a bolt of lightning struck his mind.

Fuck! ? What happened to me just now?

Obviously before playing the music, I thought not to disturb the people, so I only turned up the volume, why did I just let myself go without knowing it?

I didn't realize that I had let go of singing along with the music.

Mr. Xiang, Mr. Xiang?

Seeing Xiang Kun who seemed to be petrified, the security guard called out in surprise.

Xiang Kun reacted, and then quickly put his hands together to apologize to them: I'm really sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I lost my head when I wrote the code, and I was wearing headphones, and I accidentally sang along. Didn't realize it.

Well, just pay attention to Mr. Xiang. The security guard didn't think there was anything wrong with Xiang Kun's explanation. In fact, they thought that Xiang Kun was drunk and going crazy, but after opening the door, it was obvious that he was sober. There is no smell of alcohol either. It seems that I was really fascinated by listening to music with headphones on, and I sang unconsciously.

It's just that Xiang Kun sang too loudly, and there was no music, and it was out of tune and broken, which was really lethal at night.

After explaining and apologizing, and after the two security guards left, Xiang Kun closed the door with a serious expression on his face.

He just listened and focused on the music played by the mobile phone. To a certain extent, it does have the effect of wearing headphones, which will repel and block other sounds to a certain extent. This is why he can accurately capture it from a bunch of noise. to the desired sound capability.

At this time, the volume of your own singing and vocalization may indeed be unclear in feedback, unable to distinguish the severity, and become too loud.

But Xiang Kun didn't think it was because he didn't realize the current time and his voice was too loud. He had just completely entered a state of high self-confidence, which was very abnormal.

Since the mutation occurred, Xiang Kun has been trying his best to maintain calm and rationality. Even when he was driven by hunger and the desire to drink blood, he still had the idea of ​​subjective resistance and control.

After the first mutation, he bought a chicken and drank blood in the vegetable market almost dominated by his body instinct. He remembered the whole process from buying the chicken to drinking the blood very clearly. Thoughts are not taken away.

But he always felt that it was not a decision made by his brain or his subjective consciousness, but driven by a deeper instinct in his body, that instinct should be the same as the satisfaction and pleasure he felt every time he drank blood, The craving and restlessness you feel every time you're hungry come from the same source.

But the state just now obviously did not come from the instinct of the body, but from his own subjective consciousness.

Because he is very clear that the behavior in the whole process is decided by himself, and is dominated by his own consciousness.

This made Xiang Kun even more worried, because he suddenly realized that he had been paying attention to the changes in his body since he mutated, but he seemed to ignore the changes in his mind.
