Chapter 63 Doomsday Hero
Although the space sensed the fluctuations of supernatural powers, there was no change in the space.
Just when Mu Jiu was confused, the familiar voice sounded in his mind again:
[The system space senses earth-related supernatural powers, and its supernatural power level is level one.]
Mu Jiu looked up at Qi Nian. It turned out that he was also a person with superpowers. No wonder he could be so calm in the end times.
The space has not changed, which means that when the space encounters the same type of supernatural power, there will be no superposition effect.
New talismans can only be produced when encountering new supernatural powers.
The level of talisman paper increases with the level of space. As for how to improve the level of other people's supernatural powers, Mu Jiu is not clear.
After the transaction was completed, Qi Nian's people started to boil water and cook on one of the fires.
His brothers also became active and arranged for people to help process cabbage, tomatoes and pork.
I haven't had a proper meal for several days. I eat apples every day, and the more I eat, the hungrier I get. It not only hurts my stomach, but also makes me lose energy.
Although they wanted to have a big meal to fill the hunger of the past few days, Qi Nian didn't let everyone eat all the food.
Mu Jiu promised three meals a day, and a portion of this food had to be reserved for tomorrow's breakfast and lunch.
Qi Nian has great appeal among this group of people, and Mu Jiu can see it.
The large number of survivors here might have been rescued by this big boss with a business acumen.
Mu Jiu and the other three did not compete for food with the people in the planting base. Xiao Huang lit a stove on his own and cooked for the small team.
Mu Jiu specifically instructed that one should not be too ostentatious in crowded places, otherwise one would easily arouse jealousy.
So Xiao Huang made two dishes according to the ingredients given by Mu Jiu - stewed pork belly with cabbage and scrambled eggs with tomatoes.
If everyone eats the same thing, no one will miss you.
The four of them sat together at the back of the land temple, where there were fewer people. Each of them held a large bowl and ate delicious food.
Suddenly, an old lady in a flowery dress came over with a chubby little boy of seven or eight years old.
The little boy was holding a bowl filled with cooked rice, topped with a layer of cabbage and minced meat, as well as half a spoonful of scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and one or two small pieces of scrambled eggs here and there.
If the food that Qi Nian and Mu Jiu traded for was only eaten by the fifty or so people under his command.
That's more than enough, maybe there will be some left.
But it is really not easy to take care of more than a hundred people here, and each person can get very little meat.
Mu Jiu respected Qi Nian in his heart as a doomsday hero.
Before Mu Jiu could say anything, the grandmother asked the little boy to kowtow to Mu Jiu...
This made Mu Jiu confused. He almost choked on his mouthful of rice. "The land god is in front of us. Why are you worshipping me?"
The old lady smiled and said, “We are here to thank our savior!
Thank you for delivering the life-saving food in time, otherwise my family would have starved to death on this mountain!"
Mu Jiu glanced at the little boy next to her who was staring at the big piece of meat in her bowl with his eyes almost falling into it, and smiled.
"I think you misunderstood. I'm not your savior, Boss Qi is. You should thank him, not me.
He exchanged 100,000 kilograms of fruit for your meal, so for me, this is a deal."
As soon as Mu Jiu said this, he stopped the old woman from asking for meat for her child in a fair and honest manner.
The old lady's face turned red, but it was the end of the world, so why should she save face?
"Well... the child is in the growth stage and hasn't eaten properly for a few days.
Boss Qi didn't get much eggs and pork from trading...
Could you bosses please be kind enough to give our eldest grandson two pieces of meat?
Normally, he can’t live without meat for a meal, otherwise he won’t eat. Look how skinny he is from hunger…”
Poof! Looking at the fat little boy, Ivan couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of rice...
Just then, two grains of rice fell on Little Yellow's shoulders...
Xiao Huang frowned and said, "We're eating, please be more restrained. You almost fell into my bowl!"
Ivan quickly apologized, "Sorry! Sorry! I couldn't help it! I couldn't help it!"
Mu Jiu glanced at the two people watching the show, met the grandmother's eyes, and said word by word: "No."
The old lady obviously didn't expect that the pretty girl in front of her would refuse so bluntly, leaving her no room for maneuver.
"You, you... please be kind. Look at me, I'm already old, and I'm begging you with a licking face. Don't let my grandson laugh at me!
You have so much meat in your bowls, please give my eldest grandson two pieces of meat, just two pieces, just to moisten his throat!"
As the grandmother spoke, she pushed her grandson's hand holding the bowl forward, almost throwing the bowl on Mu Jiu's face.
The human heart is so insatiable. When there is no food to eat, people look forward to having food to eat. When they have food to eat, they look forward to having good food. In short, there is no end to this desire.
Gradually, many people gathered around to watch the excitement. Mu Jiu did not get angry. She asked calmly:
"Did your eldest grandson participate in the fruit picking this afternoon?"
The grandmother didn't understand what Mu Jiu meant and shook her head, "No."
"So, are you involved?"
The grandmother shook her head again, but soon realized what Mu Jiu was asking and quickly explained:
"No one here, except for Boss Qi's official employees, participated in the picking today!"
After hearing this, Mu Jiu raised his eyebrows and glanced in Qi Nian's direction.
He is indeed a responsible man, but in the end times, I wonder how long he can maintain this original intention?
"That's right, the meal in your hands was obtained by Boss Qi in exchange for picking fruits.
You guys didn't even participate in the picking, but you can still have a hot meal and hot dishes for free. This is already a great kindness of Boss Qi.
Even Qi Nian himself didn't ask to eat meat alone. Your eldest grandson didn't do anything, so why should he eat a few more bites of meat?
He is Tang Monk, more precious than others!
And you, this is the first time we've met, why do you want a stranger like me to give you respect? Who are you?"
Mu Jiu would not ask for food.
If we give it to them, it would be unfair to Boss Qi and his people who exchange their labor for food.
If she encourages everyone to act pitiful and gain sympathy, no one will want to do business with her. Wouldn't she then become a philanthropist?
And if you give this, you must also give that. If you give once, there will be a second time.
There are more than ten children here. Does that mean she, Mu Jiu, is their biological parent and has to take care of every one of them?
They also obtained these foods at the risk of their lives, so there is no need to pretend to be good people and give away money.
After listening to Mu Jiu's words, the old lady's face turned red.
He wanted to take advantage of his seniority to ask for a few pieces of meat, but ended up being scolded by this sharp-tongued girl.
Surrounded by neighbors from the same village, she was completely embarrassed.
She decided to go all out and sat down on the ground, holding her eldest grandson and refusing to leave.
While watching them eat, how can they have the nerve to eat it!
He was crying and shouting loudly:
"Little one, it's because grandma is useless. She's old and can't do any work anymore, so people look down on her..."
Boom—boom—boom—!
Just as the old woman was shouting, a large number of strange figures in white suddenly gathered outside the barrier of the land temple.
Following the source of the sound, it was hitting the dome of the temple barrier one after another...
This kind of scene was the first time anyone within the barrier had seen it!
Ever since they hid in this barrier, the dirty things outside seemed to be unable to see them. They just floated outside with no intention of coming in, but now...
The eldest grandson, who saw this scene, was also instantly frightened and burst into tears, which was deafening for a moment...
