Chapter 146: If you eat your own kind, you are no longer worthy of being called a human
The chaos lasted for more than half an hour before the crazy women gradually calmed down.
Their bodies were covered in blood, their hair was disheveled, and many of them were naked.
The rescued children were terrified and huddled together like quails.
The women walked up to Yao Tao and said, "Thank you for saving us. Can we know your name?"
"Don't worry about it." She accepted their thanks, but she didn't want to get too close to them. She pointed to a few empty oil drums standing in the distance and said, "There's a bucket of water over there. You can go over and wash it."
The smell from them was so strong that it gave her a headache.
A corner was converted into a kitchen, where some seasonings and leftover ingredients were stored.
Yao Tao thought it was dirty and didn't touch anything in the kitchen.
The women took some water and washed themselves briefly. They also found a lot of clothes in the cannibals' tents.
These were taken from the people they killed. At this time, they had no time to be disgusted and had to cover their bodies first.
Yao Tao could have taken the opportunity to leave, but she still wanted to ask them about Gina.
After the women had cleaned themselves up, they also found some clothes for the children.
Many children had lost their families. They hid timidly aside, not daring to look up at Yao Tao.
A child tried to get some food from the kitchen, but was discovered by a woman who slapped the child on the spot.
"The food here is inedible! Do you want to be like those people?" the woman roared, tears in her eyes.
If you eat your own kind, you are no longer worthy of being called a human being.
The child was frightened, feeling wronged and afraid, sobbing but not daring to cry out loud.
Yao Tao saw everything and suggested, "If you're hungry, you can go out and find something to eat."
Everyone followed Yao Tao and left the cannibal gang's camp.
When they got outside, the women felt even more helpless and huddled together, following closely behind Yao Tao.
They had been locked in the cage for too long and had no strength left. Yao Tao couldn't expect them to hunt for food on their own.
So she randomly shot two mutant birds in the woods and handed them over to them to deal with.
There were not many edible parts on the two mutant birds, not enough for these people to share.
Yao Tao deliberately walked away and took out an empty iron bucket from the space while no one was paying attention.
After returning, she asked the women to find water to clean the iron bucket.
The children actively looked for firewood and soon lit the bonfire.
Yao Tao filled an iron bucket with water, poured the chopped mutant bird meat into it, and then she pretended to take out half a bag of loose rice, a handful of corn and a carrot from her backpack.
The corn and carrots are also chopped and poured into the bucket.
The firewood below was constantly boiling. Yao Tao also used a knife to cut a long wooden stick. Everyone took turns stirring the side of the barrel to prevent the rice inside from sticking to the bottom of the barrel after boiling.
Gradually, the aroma of rice wafted out.
Yao Tao threw in a little more salt and then removed the bucket from the fire.
"It smells so good." Everyone stared at the rice porridge in the iron bucket, but no one stepped forward to grab it.
Since they didn't have any bowls, they found a few larger leaves, folded them up and used them as bowls to hold the rice porridge.
Yao Tao had been busy for a long time, chopping trees and killing people, and now she was a little hungry.
She shared the bucket of rice porridge with everyone else.
She felt that the taste was a bit bland. If she cooked the porridge herself, she would definitely add some vegetables and oil.
Many people cried while eating porridge.
Yao Tao neither tried to persuade nor comfort her.
This is what the end of the world is like. You are lucky enough to be able to save your own life, and there is no extra love to give to others.
The fact that she could cook this bucket of porridge was a great comfort to these people.
After finishing their porridge, Yao Tao asked them about Gina, "Is there anyone among you who was captured with Gina?"
With hot food in their stomachs, everyone's emotions gradually stabilized and they began to talk more.
