Chu Qi felt a little bit painful, but for the sake of her life, she still reluctantly bought a bottle of supernatural fluid.
【Buy!】
[Ding, thirty points have been deducted, and the supernatural fluid has been sent to the host's backpack. Please check it carefully.]
The space is bound to Chu Qi, and she can feel any changes in the space.
Chu Qi noticed that there was an extra bottle of something in the space and took it out immediately. The supernatural liquid was dark black and the bottle was very small, probably only holding 20 milliliters of liquid.
She unscrewed the bottle cap and took a sip.
The supernatural liquid looked black and like a devil's potion, but it had no taste. After drinking it, the bottle of supernatural liquid turned into stars and disappeared in the hand.
A warm current flows through every part of my body.
Wherever she wandered, Chu Qi felt warm and comfortable, as if all her hidden injuries had been healed.
She clenched her fists and felt her body's strength and agility increase significantly.
Repair hidden injuries, increase strength and agility.
Although the superpower has not yet appeared, its other effects still make Chu Qi's eyes light up, and he instantly feels that the thirty points are worth it.
The next day, Chu Qi took Chu Xuan to look for supplies around.
The shelter only had a boiling pot and a burning charcoal fire. Everything else was stored in the space by Chu Qi.
So the two of them walked with confidence, gradually moving away from the shelter and heading deeper into the city forest to look for supplies.
Most of what could be found on the ground had been swept away by the other four desolate people, so the two of them focused their attention underground.
The sun is scorching every day now, and the daytime temperature continues to rise.
Is it summer? Or autumn?
No one pays attention, but what we know is that it snows heavily in winter.
Winter has not yet arrived, and the mutated plants are growing very fast, especially the rhizome plants, which are not burned by the sun and are hidden underground. They are growing wildly like spring weeds.
It is one of the important food sources for scavengers to sustain their lives.
After the experience of being bitten by a snake yesterday, Chu Qi learned her lesson this time. She and Chu Xuan each held a stick and beat the grass as they walked, scaring away the animals hiding in the grass.
After searching for about an hour, Chu Xuan suddenly exclaimed:
"Brother. I found it."
The little girl squatted in front of a pile of earth, holding a short and sharp stick in her hand, and smiled foolishly: "I dug up sweet potatoes..."
Chu Qi walked over and dug with her, and soon, the sweet potatoes buried in the ground were dug out by the two of them.
There were five sweet potatoes, each weighing three or four pounds. They felt heavy in her hands. Chu Xuan was so happy that her teeth were showing. "That's enough for us to eat for a month."
"My sister is amazing."
Chu Qi praised and put the five sweet potatoes into the space.
Being praised, Chu Xuan's face hidden under the mud warmed up slightly: "Hehe, it's okay."
The food problem was temporarily solved, and Chu Qi felt relieved: "Next, find a water source. It's time to take a bath."
"Ah?" Hearing about taking a bath, Chu Xuan subconsciously touched her muddy face: "Taking a bath is dangerous, brother, we don't take a bath..."
"Don't be afraid, we will only wash the important parts." Chu Qi touched her head.
Scavengers have one thing in common.
That's dirty.
Whether they are ugly, beautiful or average-looking, they all make themselves dirty without exception.
In addition to the fact that conditions do not allow it, there is another important reason: everyone is dirty, but you are the only one who is clean. Aren't you just waiting to be eaten?
There is eating in both the physical and spiritual senses.
....
After searching for another half an hour, the two found a water source where no wild animals were lurking. They filled the space with pots, pans, and utensils, and then returned home.
At noon, Chu Qi took out the snake stewed with potatoes and heated it up, gave each person a bowl, and threw the rest into the space.
After eating, the two opened the shelter a little for ventilation, and Chu Xuan used a simple fan made of large leaves to fan away the fragrance.
Chu Qi took out the water and boiled it twice before using it.
The two of them took turns cleaning the important parts, but left the other parts untouched, and they still looked smelly.
"Two sets of clothes are too few after all. Let's go and see if there are any supermarket ruins this afternoon." Chu Qi put on her clothes carefully, fearing that she would tear them if she used too much force.
Even though it was already broken.
Chu Xuan nodded in agreement: "My clothes can't cover me anymore."
If she doesn't find new clothes, her secret will be discovered in an instant, just like a savage.
Thinking of the consequences, Chu Xuan felt a surge of fear.
Noon is when the sun is the hottest. Chu Qi decided to take a rest first and set off again when the sun is not so hot.
Not long after I closed my eyes, I heard a noise at the door.
There was a sound of chaotic footsteps, and someone lifted the curtain made of leaves and walked in.
Chu Xuan, who had been relaxed, suddenly tensed up. Her pupils shrank slightly and she couldn't help but hide next to her brother.
As soon as Chu Qi heard the footsteps, she put the basin of hot water on the ground into the space, and the only sound left on the ground was the crackling of burning branches.
She stood up and looked towards the "door".
Three tall and thin men walked in quickly, and the leader with scowled eyebrows said, "I've given you half a day. Have you found anything?"
Chu Qi took a step back, put her hands behind her back, and took out a potato that she had taken two bites of.
Although he only took two bites, it looked like he took them quickly, as if he was extremely hungry.
She handed the potato over with great trepidation: "This is all we found. We were so hungry that we couldn't help but eat a few bites. I hope you don't mind..."
It was impossible to tell the expression on his dirty face. Chu Qi spoke in a very flattering tone, with a fawning look on her face, and lowered her posture to the ground.
The man with the shaggy eyebrows snatched the potato away.
The bearded man with almond-shaped eyes laughed and said, "Everyone gets hungry sometimes. We don't blame you, but... why don't you take the initiative to hand it over? Do you want to keep it all for yourself? Do you understand the rules?"
The other man with narrow eyes pulled his almond-shaped eyes and advised reluctantly, "Forget it, they are probably too hungry to remember it, Third brother, just let them go."
Dan Fengyan seemed to be persuaded, and his attitude softened a little: "Okay, considering it's your first offense, I'll let you off this time."
Chu Qi has encountered this situation many times in her work.
She knew how to react at this time.
After only a few tenths of a second, Chu Qi spoke with gratitude: "Thank you for your understanding, Boss. Next time we find something to eat, we will honor you first!"
She lowered her head, as if she didn't dare to look directly at her elder brother. In the shadow that no one else could see, Chu Qi's eyes were filled with evil thoughts.
"In order to prevent you from starving to death, we will take half of the food this time and keep working hard next time!"
The man with the shaggy eyebrows took out a sharp knife and cut the potato into two unequal halves.
He pocketed the extra half and gave the remaining half to Chu Qi.
