Chapter 159 Leisure—A Transitional Chapter.
As they climbed higher under the scorching sun, the zombies along the way were swollen and deformed from being soaked in seawater, their bodies rotting.
Looking at the zombie whose belly was swollen like a balloon, Gu Wan exclaimed, "This kind of zombie, which looks like a 'giant,' is really disgusting!"
Even though he was wearing a mask, He Zhuo still covered his mouth and nose tightly, nodding vigorously in agreement: "Rotting zombies, a double attack on both sight and smell."
Lu Nange kept her mental energy focused on her surroundings, but only managed to detect the presence of a few survivors.
Even with thermal clothing to regulate body temperature, the scorching sun still made one's hair feel hot.
Just when He Zhuo felt like his scalp was on fire, he finally found a place to stay.
A ten-story residential building.
Watermarks and moldy, discolored walls were visible on the walls from the first to the sixth floor.
On every floor, rotting corpses, soaked in seawater, lingered—their swollen bodies wandering through the rooms and corridors, emitting a foul stench...
Zhizhi covered its "nose" with vines in disgust, refusing to come any closer.
After clearing out all the zombies from the building, they chose the apartment on the eighth floor.
Compared to other floors, this apartment had no splattered blood, no pieces of rotting internal organs, and no unusually disgusting smell...
He Zhuo stood at the living room window and looked out: "It's like living in a sea-view room."
The sea outside the window, which should have been azure, was stained with an oily, blackish-yellow hue, and the sea breeze had become fishy and foul, carrying waves of rotten smells.
Lu Nange put all the furniture in the room into her space, saving it for later use to smash people and fill in holes.
The group tidied up the house quickly, plugged up a few drafty holes, and replaced the curtains with clean ones.
Luo Xingyou stood in front of the water-stained French windows: "This is the first time I've seen the sea, and it's this color...like a pot of boiling Chinese medicine."
He Zhuo sprang up from the recliner: "Brilliant! I've been racking my brains for a day trying to figure out how to describe it, a yellowish-brown Chinese herb... Juejuezi!"
After saying that, she slumped back into her chair: "Sigh, living in a sea-view room, looking at the same sea view as the sewage treatment plant, smelling the seafood market that's been rotting for three days, and not even being able to eat a single shrimp shell... So sad!"
Lu Nange: "It's not impossible..."
Gu Wan sat up straight with a "whoosh": "Nan Nan, did you store seafood in your space?"
Lu Nange was about to speak...
"Can't you shut up even if there's food to eat?" Gu Qi quickly shoved the strawberry into Gu Wan's mouth.
Gu Wan chewed on a strawberry while covering her ears and shaking her head frantically: "I don't want to hear it, I don't want to hear it, I don't want to hear it!"
Lu Nange...
With a flick of her finger, Lu Nange conjured a dazzling array of seafood that instantly filled the kitchen counter—king crab, sea bass, prawns...
"I can cook sea bass and prawns." Wen Qing poked the king crab shell that was still blowing bubbles: "This big guy, I can't..."
Luo Xingyou leaned closer to examine the crab claws: "I don't know how either..."
The rest of the group: "I don't know either..."
Lu Nange pulled out a book titled "The Complete Seafood Recipes" from her spatial storage, the pages flipping rapidly: "Steamed with garlic and vermicelli, baked with cheese, stir-fried with chili...?"
Wen Qing: "How about we try the classic steamed garlic and vermicelli first?"
The boys gathered on the balcony and prepared the seafood according to Wen Qing's instructions.
The girls were in charge of chopping the side dishes, while Wen Qing and Luo Xingyou were in charge of cooking.
In the living room, Lu Beiye was squatting in front of a large basin, giving the two little ones a "bath".
The main problem is that Zhizhi feels its leaves and branches are covered in the stench of rotting corpses and need to be cleaned with a fragrant wash...
With a sizzling sound, the moment the minced garlic was poured over the crab meat, a rich aroma immediately filled the entire room.
After a hearty meal, everyone took turns washing up and resting.
I plan to wake up in the middle of the night and leave directly from Haishi...
