Chapter 120 Eggplant, once ate human flesh
“Ouch, ouch!”
"Keep your voice down!"
"If you keep yelling, I'll break your jaw."
When Eggplant heard the threat from his master, he could only shut his mouth reluctantly.
"Don't move. If you dare to splash water on my face again, I'll slap you!"
When Eggplant heard this, he instantly stopped the urge to shake his body.
Although the blood on the eggplant had been rubbed off, Meng Ci still felt it was not clean.
It just so happened that Shen Que and Meng Ci were in sync with each other. When Meng Ci came back with the eggplants, Shen Que had already boiled several pots of water and poured them all into the basin.
So Meng Ci pressed the eggplant forcefully and stuffed it into the basin.
Unexpectedly, the eggplant started howling after entering the pot.
The heart-wrenching sound was just like the sound of slaughtering pigs during the Chinese New Year.
After Meng Ci finally got the eggplant to shut up, he poured some water on it. However, the eggplant shook its body and spilled all the water on Meng Ci.
Meng Ci angrily hit the eggplant a few times, and then it calmed down.
Unexpectedly, Eggplant was quiet for only a minute before starting to act up again.
Shen Que brought over two brushes, handed one to Meng Ci, and then each of them started brushing the eggplants.
"Ah, ah!"
Eggplant wanted to scream but didn't dare to, so he could only close his mouth and make a low moan from his throat?
Don't take a shower. It's so uncomfortable.
Meng Ci and Shen Que ignored it. One of them held one side and the two of them quickly washed the eggplants.
Then Meng Ci wiped its body with a towel and let the eggplant stay by the stove to dry itself.
Shen Que and Meng Ci started cooking.
This time the meal was simpler, it was braised noodles with beans and potatoes.
The noodles were made by borrowing Meng Ci’s noodle press during the heavy rain before Chen Que.
Shen Que took out a cucumber from the space again, and then picked some spinach and mixed it into a cold dish.
Take out a pack of spicy and sour boneless chicken feet and pour them onto the plate.
Meng Ci brewed another pot of Tieguanyin, the aroma was tempting.
Satisfying meal for two people.
The water on the eggplant had not dried yet, so it could only watch the two people eat it.
After the water on its body had finally dried up, Eggplant let out a roar and rushed towards the food bowl.
"Chen Que, you said that eggplants don't have worms in their stomachs, do you?" Meng Ci was puzzled. Otherwise, why would he feel like he had been hungry for many days every time he ate?
Shen has never raised animals, so he is not clear about this.
Then the two decided to go out and ask around to see if there was a veterinarian.
The next day, after dinner, Meng Ci and Shen Que decided to go out for a walk and bring back some firewood.
Of course, bring the eggplant too.
Let the eggplant work hard and earn food for yourself.
As soon as the two of them walked out of the building, they saw Zhang Mingtian who had just returned from the night shift.
"Hello, two brothers!"
When Zhang Mingtian saw Eggplant walking next to Meng Ci and the others, he couldn't help but give her a thumbs up.
"Big brother is big brother, the pets he raises are extraordinary."
Zhang Mingtian is thirty years old. Every time he calls Meng Ci "Big Brother", Meng Ci feels like he is shortening his life.
Therefore, after the others got familiar with each other, Meng Ci suggested that they could just call them by their names.
But Zhang Mingtian said, once you call me "big brother", you are my big brother for life.
He reiterated that if they had not lent him the rubber boat, his family would have died in the rainstorm.
Therefore, Zhang Mingtian felt that Meng Ci and Shen Que were like his living parents.
Calling them "big brother" is a sign of respect for them.
As Zhang Mingtian's words became more and more outrageous, Meng Ci quickly stopped him from continuing and told him to call him "big brother" if he wanted to.
When Eggplant heard Zhang Mingtian’s praise, she raised her head and was extremely proud.
Oooooh!
I am the most beautiful and majestic kid in the world.
Meng Ci said: "It's very laborious to raise this thing."
"They eat meat every meal. If I hadn't caught a lot of mice before and let them reproduce, I'm afraid they would come out to find corpses for them to eat."
It was the time when the security team was getting off work at night, and some residents were out looking for things, so there were a lot of people on the road.
When some people see eggplant, they have evil intentions.
Thinking that eggplants are so fat, I can eat the meat for many days if I pick some.
Meng Ci knew what these people were thinking, so he deliberately said loudly that eggplants would eat people, just to make these people put their little thoughts aside.
"You don't know, but once I didn't keep an eye on it, it ran to the twelfth floor and ate half of a woman's body."
Meng Ci accidentally entered the house on the west side of the twelfth floor while catching mice and found a dead person inside.
And the guy's leg was being gnawed by a rat.
Meng Ci bluntly put the blame on Qiezi.
Sure enough, after hearing this, many people gave up the idea of catching eggplants and quickly urged the people around them to leave.
Although meat is delicious, life is more important.
However, there was still some people who refused to give up and wandered around.
Zhang Mingtian was also a little scared when he heard that eggplants can eat human flesh.
"Then you'll have to keep a close eye on him from now on, otherwise he'll get addicted to eating human flesh and end up hurting someone."
Meng Ci nodded.
"By the way, brother, what are you going to do outside?" Zhang Mingtian asked.
"If you go to the stock exchange, it's closed today. They're clearing the snow."
"Clearing the snow?" Meng Ci wondered.
Zhang Mingtian nodded, "Yes."
Last night, although it only snowed for three hours, the thickness still reached about one meter.
If the exchange is not cleaned up in time, it will be buried by the snow.
To clear the snow, in addition to military personnel, other residents will be recruited.
Of course, wages will also be given.
Sometimes it's two potatoes, or a packet of instant noodles.
In fact, Meng Ci had been very puzzled before. Chen Que had clearly stated in the letter that the thickness of the snow would eventually accumulate to the tenth floor of the building, so why did the government want to build an exchange so early?
At that time, Meng Ci thought that there might be something wrong with the brain of the person who made the decision.
Only then did I realize that it makes sense for me to be a decision maker.
By clearing snow, residents can increase their labor and earn food.
If food is distributed directly, residents will only gain something without any effort.
"Let's go chop some firewood instead of going to the trading point," Meng Ci said.
After hearing this, Zhang Mingtian pointed the way forward for the two people.
"The government has brought back a batch of coal from other cities. You can exchange it at the exchange if you need it."
"But it's quite expensive. One pound of coal costs one pound of rice."
In today's extreme cold weather, coal is as important as food, so Meng Ci can understand why it is so expensive.
After saying goodbye to Zhang Mingtian, Meng Ci and Shen Que continued to walk north.
Meng Ci was extremely surprised to see several people driving off-road vehicles on the road.
Because of the previous heavy rain and snow, the ground more than 20 meters above was frozen, making it difficult to take the vehicle out, so Meng Ci did not think about taking the car out of the space.
Seeing someone driving a car, Meng Ci began to wonder whether he should take out a car.
