Chapter 53 Photos from the Past
The soup and the fish were completely integrated together, creating a natural and delicious taste without any fishy smell. Some vegetables were placed on the noodles. After finishing the hot bowl of noodles, she felt warm all over. She ate three bowls of noodles in one breath. She originally wanted to eat another bowl, but when she thought about the others who hadn’t eaten yet, and Shi Yan was still staring at her, she thought better of it and decided to eat something else later!
In fact, Shi Yan was just fascinated by watching her eat so happily.
"By the way, did anything unusual happen last night?"
Shi Yan didn't sleep the whole night last night, and now he got up so early to make breakfast, but he didn't even look tired at all. Qin Muxue couldn't help but think that he really had a strong body.
But thinking about how he had gone through so much hardship when testing drugs in the laboratory in the past, she suddenly felt heavy-hearted again. Seeing him would remind her of her miserable self in her previous life. Fortunately, both of them were safe and sound in this life and had escaped from the people who bullied them in the previous life.
Shi Yan said calmly: "No, even if there is, I will solve it, don't worry."
He didn't tell Qin Muxue what happened last night. There was no need to tell her.
At this time, everyone else had almost woken up. Qu Yanbai had actually woken up a long time ago. He went out for a run and observed the surrounding terrain. Under Shi Yan's guidance, he found that there was indeed a road, but it required a long detour. However, they had snowmobiles, so this was nothing to them.
Wu You rubbed his eyes. He had a dream last night. He found himself falling into the sea and was scared to death. He was relieved when he woke up and found that he was safe and sound. However, he found that his lower body was wet and he actually wet the bed.
He hid in the bed and refused to come out. It was only after Qu Yanbai tried hard to persuade him that he finally got up crying, "Wow, wow, wow, I'm so old, and I still..."
Qu Yanbai knew that he was just a child, and that what had happened in the past few days must have stimulated him, causing him to accidentally wet the bed.
"It was just an accident. Take a shower and get up for breakfast!"
Qu Yanbai asked him to take a shower directly in the RV. The bathroom facilities here were quite good, except that the space was a bit small, but it was more than enough for Wu You.
Ding Manman was still as sleepy as usual. She needed more sleep than anyone else. Qin Muxue wanted her to sleep a little longer, so she took Baozhu out for a walk to meet her physiological needs.
Zhenzhu has a cat litter box that she can use. Qin Muxue had stockpiled a lot of cat litter before, which was probably enough for Zhenzhu to use for a lifetime. However, because of different habits, Baozhu can only take the cat litter outside for a walk.
Qin Muxue helped her put on shoes and a down vest, "I'll go out and take Baozhu for a walk first." Qin Muxue said hello to Shi Yan, then wrapped herself up like a dumpling and prepared to go out.
Shi Yan smiled and nodded. Looking at her receding back, the smile on his face immediately disappeared, and he returned to his usual cold look.
Qin Muxue took Baozhu out for a stroll. Baozhu ran wildly in the snow, but its paws felt a little uncomfortable wearing shoes. She could only comfort it, "Baozhu, there is really no other way. The temperature is too low now. If you don't wear shoes, your paws will be frostbitten."
Baozhu finally found a secluded place to go to the toilet, and suddenly rushed out and yelled at Qin Muxue, "What's wrong, Baozhu?"
Baozhu dragged Qin Muxue to a piece of ice. There was actually an eyeball under the ice. Looking directly into the eyeball inside the ice was really weird.
Although she had prepared herself mentally, Qin Muxue, who had just finished breakfast, almost vomited, "Baozhu, don't look for these weird things. They almost ruined my mood for the whole day."
Baozhu barked a few times. She knew this smell and had seen someone with this smell.
Unfortunately, she couldn't speak human language and could only bark a few times.
Standing up, Qin Muxue felt very strange again. Why did such a thing appear here, and Baozhu was still calling non-stop.
Enduring the discomfort, she observed the surrounding situation and found that there were not only eyeballs, but also other remaining bones. The person's body had been destroyed into pieces, and she couldn't tell who it was at all.
Moreover, this place is in the wilderness and there are wild animals. It is possible that they were injured by the wild animals. It seems that they have to leave this place as soon as possible.
Passing by the ice hole made yesterday, Qin Muxue thought about it and tried to activate her water ability to stir the water in the lake and control the water flow with her mental power. As the water flowed out, many lively fish were brought out.
It just so happened that she was planning to dig a small pond in the breeding area of the space. If she raised the fish in it, she would have fresh fish to eat every time and be self-sufficient.
After putting the fish into the large tank filled with spiritual spring water in the breeding area, she returned to the RV and found that it had been cleaned up.
Qu Yanbai was looking at the photos on the refrigerator. They were all photos of Qin Muxue and Ding Manman, and there was even a photo of Shi Yan.
"Manman was very cute back then. Didn't she grow any taller?"
"And you look so different from the photo." Qin Muxue used to look like a "Shamatte" with weird makeup, but now she doesn't have any makeup on and isn't wearing any exaggerated clothes. She really doesn't look like the same person as she did then.
Qin Muxue explained: "Everyone likes different makeup, and I am free to do whatever I want."
"Is this Shi Yan?" Qu Yanbai looked at the three boys in the photo, one of whom had a pale face and did not look very strong.
Shi Yan glanced at it and hummed. He was weaker at that time, so the difference was huge.
Qin Muxue looked at Shi Yan in the photo, and then looked at Shi Yan now. He was now a head taller than her. She also noticed last time that he looked very thin in his clothes, but his body was full of solid muscles and he seemed to have received high-intensity training. His originally pale face now looked more and more delicate, and his pair of black eyes became deeper. They used to be filled with melancholy, but now it was more of an indescribable feeling.
Qin Muxue picked up the photo and said, "It seems that Shi Yan has changed a lot."
Ding Manman also woke up at this time. She was getting dressed and hugging Zhenzhu. "You slept so well last night. I didn't realize when you woke up. You are looking at these. Originally, this RV was prepared by Xiaoxue, but the photos are my collection. They are perfect for sticking on the refrigerator."
"It's okay. You are special. It's okay to sleep a little longer." The topic of photos ended here.
Only Wu You had a sad expression on his face. He didn't seem very happy. The bed-wetting incident just now had become a concern for him. He stammered and apologized to Qin Muxue.
Qin Muxue originally thought it was nothing, but it turned out to be just such a small matter. With the quilts and mattresses they had searched for before plus the ones she had bought before, there was no telling how many there were in the space. Wasting a few beds would not have any impact at all. Fortunately, Wu You looked worried.
"It's okay. Be more careful next time. It might be due to the influence of the surrounding environment. Besides, you have been through so much stimulation recently, it's normal to have nightmares. Don't worry about it." He is just a teenager in his growth period. There is no need to be too harsh on him. Besides, the magnetic field environment of Blue Star has undergone major changes, as can be seen from the aurora that appeared here last night. It is normal for the human body to be unable to adapt sometimes.
Wu You looked at them with some emotion. Although he was the one who secretly ran out and followed them away, none of them had ever despised him for being a burden. Everything was arranged in an orderly manner and he was never treated unfairly. Instead, they taught him a lot of survival knowledge.
At this time, Qu Yanbai came over to complain again, "Xiao Qin, look at Shi Yan, this guy, I asked him to make me a bowl of noodles, but he refused, and said that I have hands and feet, so I should do it myself."
Shi Yan replied expressionlessly: "That's how it is. If you want to eat, help yourself."
"You said you've made so much food for Xiao Qin, why don't you go a little further and help me."
"You said it was troublesome, but I just find it troublesome."
Listening to the two people bickering, Qin Muxue suppressed her smile and said, "Okay, I'll do it, I'll do it, that should be fine, after all, Shi Yan didn't get a rest all night. However, let me make it clear first, Qu Yanbai, if you don't want to be poisoned to death by me, I will cook it for you."
Qu Yanbai shook his head. He had never seen Qin Muxue cook before, and he was afraid of being poisoned. "Come on, come on, I'll just do it myself. I can have enough food and clothing if I do it myself!"
Qu Yanbai ordered three servings of noodles, including one for Ding Manman and Wu You.
Qin Muxue then discovered that there was a scratch on Shi Yan's hand, and it looked like the wound was quite deep. "Your hand is injured? Why didn't I notice it just now?"
Shi Yan immediately put on his gloves and said, "It's nothing. I accidentally got it when I was handling the fish just now."
If Manman were to take care of this minor injury, it would be a bit of an overreaction. Qin Muxue took out the medicine box and said, "If you get infected now, you will get sick. We don't have a hospital like before. Come on, I'll take care of it for you."
Shi Yan himself didn't even notice the wound on his hand. He was probably accidentally injured when he was dealing with that man yesterday.
Qin Muxue grabbed his hand and took off his gloves. There were many fine scars on his slender hands with distinct joints. She hadn't noticed them before, but now she saw them. Qin Muxue sighed and said nothing more. Instead, she took out some alcohol to disinfect his wounds. She disinfected his wounds carefully and said, "It will be a little painful, bear with it."
Shi Yan didn't feel any pain, but when he saw Qin Muxue applying medicine to him seriously, he just stared at Qin Muxue's profile in a daze, and couldn't help but be stunned.
Qin Muxue asked: "Does it hurt?"
Shi Yan reacted and realized that he couldn't feel any pain. Even if she hit him hard, he couldn't feel it. But he still replied, "It hurts."
"Then I'll be gentler." Qin Muxue disinfected him and applied some medicine powder to his wound, then put on a Band-Aid, which she had stockpiled before and had a bear pattern on it. "Alright, be more careful next time. Your hands are your bread and butter. If you don't take good care of yourself, how can you survive in such a cruel apocalypse?"
His mind flashed with his sickly appearance in his previous life, and he finally coughed up blood. They didn't have any medicine, and even though it was painful, he had to hold on. Fortunately, Qin Muxue now had stockpiled a lot of medicine and a lot of medical equipment, and they also had Manman's healing ability. In the end times, this configuration should be quite good. Even if Shi Yan got sick again, it would not be like before.
Before he died, this guy took out a pack of biscuits from his arms. They were all broken into crumbs. He still managed to force a smile and said to her, "Xiaoxue, these are what I saved for you."
In the previous life, Xue Kai's excuse for beating him was this bag of biscuits. He was beaten just to protect the bag of biscuits for her.
Qin Muxue recovered from her memories. In her previous life, Ding Manman and Shi Yan, as her friends, had given so much for her. She wanted to take revenge on those who had treated her badly in her previous life, and she would also treat those who had treated her well. Only in difficult situations could she see who was the best person for her.
"Well, I will take good care of myself." Shi Yan nodded obediently, completely different from the indifferent look he had when he was talking to Qu Yanbai just now.
In order to protect Qin Muxue's survival in this doomsday, he will also protect himself well.
"Don't you smell anything?" Qin Muxue sniffed the surroundings, "It seems like something is burnt."
Qin Muxue stood up and found that Qu Yanbai had burnt the noodles. She quickly picked up the pot and said, "Qu Yanbai, are you going to burn my RV?"
"Sorry, sorry, I was distracted for a moment and didn't notice it." Qu Yanbai began to clean up awkwardly and scratched his head embarrassedly. He was just teaching Wu You junior high school content, and the question was surprisingly difficult. He racked his brains but couldn't figure it out, and he even forgot that there were noodles cooking in the pot.
In the end, Ding Manman cooked a few packets of instant noodles and everyone ate them.
"I really can't imagine that the questions in junior high school can be so difficult. This question is simply beyond belief."
Qin Muxue took the exercise book and looked at it. Her mind seemed to be confused. She was not a very good student. She and Manman were both poor students. This question was really difficult for her.
Wu You looked at the two people's troubled expressions and said, "You don't have to worry anymore. I have figured it out. In fact, the method is very simple."
Wu You wrote down a few formulas that they didn't recognize on the draft, "Just use these methods."
When the two of them saw it, their logic failed.
In the end, Shi Yan looked at Qin Muxue's distressed expression, picked up the paper, and began to give guidance. His words were very good and he always made just the right point each time, but it was this that enlightened Wu You.
"It seems that this job will have to be handed over to you from now on." Qu Yanbai felt a little inferior.
Qin Muxue looked at the current time and said, "We should almost set off."
It was already past 7 in the morning and the sky was completely bright, so it was time to set off.
She packed up the RV, filled up the snowmobile with gas, and put some dry food and water in the car so that she could just eat whatever she wanted on the road.
