Fang Qingdai stared wide-eyed in shock. After confirming several times that she wasn't seeing things, she belatedly turned her head to look at the door of the shack!
Fortunately, Fang Qingdai's shack was located on the very edge of the shack area, with the door facing the endless yellow sand outside, and hardly anyone walked around.
Fang Qingdai got up and put up the broken wooden plank that she was using as a door. After making sure that no one could see what was going on inside when they passed by, she breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at Qingluan.
I was racking my brains trying to figure out how to explain it to the little girl, but when I turned around, I found that she had already fallen asleep with tears in her eyes.
The small body was curled up on the bed board, which was only covered with a clump of old mattress, and even in her dreams she was still anxiously calling out softly, "Sister..."
Fang Qingdai breathed a sigh of relief, stepped forward to cover Qingluan with a tattered garment, and then looked again at the pile of junk in the wooden box.
Although she didn't know where this magical ability to turn objects back to their original form came from, since the heavens had granted her favor, Fang Qingdai naturally made good use of it!
After sorting through all the "garbage," I found three more plastic bags and half a tube of nutrient solution.
With half the nutrient solution remaining, using that divine power would be too wasteful, so Fang Qingdai ignored the nutrient solution and turned her attention to the three plastic bags.
There were three bags. Two of them were barely recognizable as food bags. One had a blurry chocolate logo on it, and the other had a blurry potato chip image.
The last one, the patterns and fonts on it have been completely eroded away by the passage of time, and it is impossible to tell what it was "before" it was born.
Fang Qingdai picked up the bag of chocolates first, silently thinking, "Back to the perfect state!"
Another "crackling" sound of plastic bags filled the air. Fang Qingdai looked at the dirty plastic bag in her hand with great surprise, and it turned back into a brand new bar of chocolate!
Overjoyed, she immediately applied her "time rewind" skill to the potato chip bag.
Time Reversal was the name Fang Qingdai gave to this special skill.
After successfully restoring the potato chips to their original state, Fang Qingdai suddenly felt dizzy and experienced a sharp, needle-like pain in her brain.
Realizing that it was caused by using Time Reversal, Fang Qingdai's joy finally subsided.
It seems this skill has usage limitations. I've only used it three times so far, and I already feel noticeably tired and uncomfortable.
But the hardships Fang Qingdai remembered affected her, and she gritted her teeth and tried again, unwilling to give up.
The last plastic bag didn't react at all!
Fang Qingdai pondered that this thing was similar to a superpower, and it could also experience a depletion of superpowers.
Generally, as long as you rest for a period of time, your superpowers will gradually recover. If you are in a hurry to recover your superpowers, you can also absorb crystal cores.
Crystal nuclei can be produced inside zombies, mutated beasts, and even mutated plants.
Fang Qingdai is currently very poor and has no way of producing crystal cores, the hard currency of the wasteland. Moreover, for some reason, Fang Qingdai feels that crystal cores are useless to her time reversal ability!
So right now, the only thing Fang Qingdai can do is get some rest!
Being able to recall food is a lifeline for survival. Only when we are well-fed and watered can we have the energy to think about how to survive next.
Fang Qingdai sat back on the wooden bed with the food in her hands and gently woke Qingluan.
"Sister!" The little girl opened her eyes and, before she could even see the situation clearly, she opened her mouth in a panic and looked for her sister.
"Here, come here, let your sister hold you." Fang Qingdai softened her voice and reached out to pick up the little girl and put her on her lap.
On one hand, it was An Xiaoya's heart; on the other hand, the bed was simply too small, so crowded that it was difficult for both of them to sit on it!
As soon as the little girl entered Fang Qingdai's arms, she immediately turned to the side and hugged her waist tightly, burying her face in her chest, as if the tighter she hugged, the more at ease she felt.
Fang Qingdai sighed softly. The original two sisters had lost their parents and were like rootless duckweed, struggling to survive in this desolate and dangerous wasteland.
If the original owner couldn't hold on, how much more so the even younger Qingluan? The little girl must have been living in fear for the past six months, without a single day of peace!
Fang Qingdai patted Qingluan's little body reassuringly and spoke in a lighthearted tone, "Qingluan, look! What wonderful treasures does your sister have!"
The little girl turned to the side and looked in the direction Fang Qingdai pointed. She was immediately attracted by the food with exquisite patterns printed on the bed!
"What is it? Qingluan has never seen it before!" The little girl's eyes sparkled, but she didn't reach out to take it. Instead, she looked up at Fang Qingdai, her face finally showing the curiosity that a child should have.
Fang Qingdai took the small bread and gently tore it open: "Qingluan, smell it, does it smell good?"
The little girl wrinkled her nose, like a puppy trying hard to identify a scent, her eyes shining brighter the more she sniffed.
"It smells so good! Sister, what is this?"
The little girl was both surprised and delighted. The sweet smell made her eyes crinkle into a smile, her big eyes curving into crescent shapes, and two little dimples appeared on her cheeks. She looked incredibly cute!
Fang Qingdai's eyes crinkled with laughter as well: "These are little bread rolls, they're delicious, Qingluan, try some!"
Fang Qingdai broke off a piece of bread and stuffed it into Qingluan's mouth, then tore off a piece for herself and put it in her mouth as well.
The sweet flavor spreads in your mouth, the texture is soft, and after chewing a couple of times, there is a faint honey taste.
Qingluan chewed faster and faster, her big eyes sparkling as if they held a sky full of stars. As soon as she swallowed the bread, the little girl couldn't wait to say, "It's so delicious! Sister, this is super, super delicious. It's the most, most, most delicious food Qingluan has ever eaten!"
Fang Qingdai smiled. "Isn't this the most delicious food?"
In the original owner's memory, mutated plants and animals were very expensive, and most people couldn't afford to eat them and could only buy nutrient solutions produced by the base.
Although the nutrient solution had little taste, it had a sticky texture, like slime. Drinking it was better to drink Chinese medicine!
The original owner's family had also purchased mutated beast meat several times, but due to the severe cultural discontinuity and the near extinction of humanity, the culinary techniques that had been passed down in China for thousands of years were not preserved...
As a result, the base's existing cooking methods are limited to the most basic roasting and boiling. The mutated beast meat is also particularly gamey, so you can imagine how unpalatable it tastes...
"Eat as much as you like, it's okay. I'll find a way to earn points so that Qingluan won't go hungry in the future!"
Fang Qingdai handed the remaining small bread rolls to Qingluan. Each small bread roll wasn't very big to begin with, and after the two of them each took a bite, there wasn't much left.
But Qingluan absolutely refused: "Sister, eat with me. Sister is an adult and has to work. Sister should eat more!"
The little girl redistributed the remaining bread into two portions, giving two-thirds of it to Fang Qingdai.
Compared to her younger brother Qian Deng in her previous life, Qing Luan's thoughtful actions moved Fang Qingdai to tears!
He forcefully shoved the bread into Qingluan's hand, and before she could shove it back, he quickly grabbed the chocolate.
"Qingluan, eat! Sister has other treasures here too!"
