They thought that being able to eat meat was the best they could hope for, after all, animals had undergone significant changes since the end of the world.
The most obvious of these is the body size, which has increased significantly. Offensive means, such as fangs, will also become harder and thicker as the body size increases, and the attack power will increase.
Correspondingly, animals have a very strong desire to attack, and it is very difficult for ordinary people to hunt a mutant animal.
And the seasonings before the end of the world were buried along with the end of the world.
After so many years, even if the artificial seasoning could be dug out, it would have expired long ago.
Naturally grown plants such as onions, ginger and garlic are very popular.
Unfortunately, because of the rampant virus, Jiang somehow also became ill.
The ginger that can be found in nature nowadays are all mutated and enlarged versions. Not only do they not taste very fragrant, but they are also poisonous!
Sister Lin and her group had not smelled ginger with the pure smell like the one Chu Qi brought out for many years.
Sister Lin's eyes showed a little excitement as she looked at Chu Qi's leg of lamb.
The others didn’t hide as well as Sister Lin. Even though Chu Qi lowered her head, she could still feel those terrifying gazes.
They want to steal my flesh? Chu Qi's heart trembled, and murderous intent filled her.
Looking up at those people, Chu Qi's face was calm, but her eyes were sharp, and she was ready to defend herself at any time.
The thin but very powerful arms bulged slightly as the owner became alert, and the belly, which could not be fully covered by the worn short-sleeved shirt, revealed obvious abdominal muscles.
Her explosive power and fighting ability are definitely not as weak as they appear.
Sister Lin noticed Chu Qi's vigilance and smiled to ease the atmosphere: "Excuse me, where did you get your ginger? Don't get me wrong, we don't want to steal your ginger, it's just that we haven't seen such pure ginger in a long time, so we also want to get some to try."
Most of the meat has a bit of fishy smell, and the taste is not that good. It would be better if there is ginger as a seasoning...
It's not about stealing meat.
That's okay.
Chu Qi's tense nerves relaxed a little after hearing this: "This ginger is grown wild. Aren't there a lot of them on the road?"
It's just that after being purified by her supernatural powers, the toxins were cleared away.
The wood-related ability can give birth to thousands of plants and clean out the toxins in the plants. These are all uses that Chu Qi has researched over the past three months.
She uses her powers every day.
Use --- Exhaust --- Use ---- Exhaust ----
By repeating this cycle over and over again, the supernatural power is honed, not only becoming more handy and smoother to use, but the supernatural power energy bar also increases as proficiency increases.
She didn't know whether superpowers were divided into different levels.
In short, she could feel that compared to her initial ability which could only be used three times a day to ripen and resurrect, and the objects ripened were small flowers and grasses; now her ability could be used at least five times a day, and the objects ripened and resurrected had evolved into towering trees.
The big tree she prepared to use as her bed tonight was the one she brought back to life using her supernatural powers.
If she had level one supernatural power three months ago, she is at least level three now.
Back to the topic, Sister Lin was not very satisfied with Chu Qi's answer.
She thought the answer was just a perfunctory one.
It is true that there are a lot of ginger on the roadside, but there is a big difference between Chu Qi’s ginger and the ginger on the roadside.
Sister Lin was more and more certain that Chu Qi had hidden her true strengths, and she dared not confront him head-on, so she said directly:
"We haven't found anything like yours. Can we trade your supplies for some ginger?"
Her attitude was respectful enough, and the smile on her face was completely different from her usual complacency; it was full of respect.
This surprised the five men who had been with Sister Lin for a long time.
However, Sister Lin’s will is their will.
Since Sister Lin had adopted such an attitude, the others were even more afraid to act arrogantly and quickly retracted their greedy and somewhat malicious gazes.
"What supplies?"
Chu Qi was very interested in this proposal. Her current inventory only filled half of the space, and the other half could be used. The more supplies the better.
"Can we discuss this for a moment?"
Sister Lin did not make a decision immediately, but instead pulled the other five people aside to talk in private.
She is the leader, but when it comes to resource allocation, she always discusses with everyone.
I respect other people's opinions. If you don't respect others, you won't be respected by others.
Sister Lin is well aware of this truth.
Chu Qi followed them and continued to turn the roasted lamb. The extremely hot fire licked the lamb legs wantonly, the oil sizzled, and waves of fragrant and strong aromas filled the place domineeringly.
Chu Qi sniffed the fragrance in the air, and her already hungry stomach growled a few times.
She licked the roof of her mouth, climbed up the tree and gently woke Chu Xuan up.
“Hmm…”
Chu Xuan had just woken up with a hoarse voice. She murmured and was about to talk to Chu Qi, but suddenly she remembered that there were other people downstairs. She stopped talking and signaled with her eyes: Can we eat now?
Chu Qi responded affirmatively: "Come and eat."
Over there, Sister Lin and the others had also discussed it and were willing to exchange chili powder, pork, knives, laundry detergent, and clothes for ginger.
As for the issue of equivalence, it will be decided by Chu Qi. If they think it is reasonable, they will change it. If it is unreasonable, they will... discuss it again.
Chu Qi had no shortage of chili powder, she could pick it herself.
There is no shortage of knives either. There is space for many tools scavenged along the way, including five boning knives alone.
The clothes were piled up into a small mountain.
Remove what is not needed and all that is left is pork and laundry detergent.
After weighing the pros and cons, Chu Qi agreed to exchange twenty pieces of ginger for two kilograms of pork and a packet of laundry detergent.
When changing, she deliberately showed a conflicted attitude, as if she felt sorry for Jiang and was reluctant to give him up, but also wanted the pork and laundry detergent.
Her behavior made people involuntarily prejudge that Chu Qi must have very little ginger left and had no other channels to obtain it.
Sister Lin and others suddenly felt that the exchange was worth it!
Everyone was smiling.
Chu Qi looked at them and smiled as if they had gotten a great bargain.
Chu Xuan turned around and pretended to eat with her back to them.
The moment she turned her back, the girl laughed silently.
Make a lot of money this time!
You know, her brother uses ginger, a condiment that can be found everywhere, as a practice tool.
There were so many ginger pieces that were successfully detoxified that we couldn’t eat them all.
Chu Qi held down the girl's shoulders, which were shaking from laughing too much, and reluctantly reminded her, "Be careful."
Chu Xuan slowly calmed down and smiled sweetly at Chu Qi.
After three months of feeding, although Chu Xuan did not grow into a fat boy like a balloon, he did grow some flesh on his face.
A little bit of baby fat is enough to improve her appearance a lot.
Looking at the girl's cuter face, Chu Qi silently reached out and grabbed a handful of mud from the ground, then smeared it on the girl's face.
Chu Xuan put the bowl on her lap, raised her little face, closed her eyes obediently and let her brother "touch up" on her face.
