Chapter 248 The greatest luxury in the end times is love
The people at the checkpoint waited until Yao Tao and Bai Lin returned to the opposite tree before they came to their senses.
"Oh my god, am I dreaming? This woman killed the mutant tiger all by herself?"
"Are you blind? Isn't there another boy?"
"He did come down, but he just held a bowl and kept eating."
"That's true... I just saw him raise his hand, and the woman jumped down from the tree. She was so fierce."
"What are you waiting for? Come down quickly, there's meat!"
Someone shouted, and everyone finally reacted.
Many of them had run out of food and had been hungry for several days.
With such a big mutant tiger now, there must be a lot of edible meat on it.
Someone lowered a ladder and everyone rushed down to the ground, surrounding the mutant tiger tremblingly, and no one dared to be the first to touch it.
"What are you afraid of? It's already dead."
"I know it's dead, but it's still scary."
"Yeah, it's even scarier up close, it's so big."
"Where is the man who was killed by the tiger?" someone asked.
"It's in the haystack over there."
"Is anyone going to collect his body?"
"No."
"Where are the people who came with him?"
The people employed by Zhu Hua all remained silent.
Anyway, Zhu Hua is dead, and they don't want to have anything to do with Zhu Hua anymore.
"Hurry up and build a fire, and don't let other mutant animals get close."
"My knife is sharp, and I'm best at cutting meat."
"Don't fight over it. There's definitely enough meat for everyone to share. If not, we can make some broth. Just be careful not to tear the tiger's hide."
"It's okay if it's broken. Do you still want to eat the tiger skin?"
"Are you stupid? You forgot what that woman said so quickly?"
Some people lose their minds when they see food and just think about cutting the meat and eating it.
People looked up at the two people who were vaguely visible in the tree.
Yao Tao and Bai Lin had finished their hot pot. After clearing away the dishes, Yao Tao took out two sleeping bags and set up a tent to block the wind and snow.
The tent was set up among the branches and secured to the tree trunks with ropes.
Yao Tao also added two large stones to hold down the rope to prevent the tent from moving in the strong wind in the middle of the night.
Looking at the tents they had set up, some people were shocked. "He is indeed a capable person. He dares to sleep outdoors."
"She can even kill mutant tigers, what's there to be afraid of?" Someone said impatiently, "Who knows how to skin it? Come here quickly. Don't waste time. We can also eat and fill our stomachs after you skin the tiger. Be careful not to tear the skin."
A few people who knew how to peel the skin came forward to help.
Fortunately, they were many in number and they quickly skinned the tiger and finally cut out nearly twenty kilograms of meat that was not infected by the mutation.
"Finally, we can have a full meal." People talked and laughed.
With food, people's emotions will gradually calm down.
No more panic.
Even if I have any worries, I won’t think about them anymore. I just want to quickly drink a sip of hot soup and take a bite of meat.
The survivors cooked a large pot of broth, and more than thirty people drank it until they were full. After extinguishing the campfire on the ground, they all returned to the platform.
They didn't dare stay on the ground. Even if there wouldn't be another mutant tiger around, they still had a shadow in their hearts.
Yao Tao and Bai Lin were lying in their sleeping bags reading.
An emergency light was placed between them.
Yao Tao was watching "A Song of Ice and Fire".
Bai Lin was reading "Hans Christian Andersen's Fairy Tales".
The two of them looked at their own things, neither disturbing the other, and quietly enjoyed the peaceful night.
Outside the tent, the snow was falling heavily, fluttering and landing on the branches.
The falling snow is like flying elves, spinning.
There was a light of torches in the distant outpost, but for them, it was destined to be a difficult night.
The cold swept across the land.
The howling north wind brutally beat the survivors who had no warm clothes, taking away the last bit of warmth on their bodies.
Yao Tao put down the book, opened the tent a little and looked out.
At this time in her previous life, she was still busy with Zhu Hua's team affairs and was still worried about the relationship between her and Zhu Hua.
And in this life, she can spend the winter peacefully, and her heart will never be disturbed by anyone again.
love?
Oh, in the end times, the greatest luxury is not how many high-end tableware she owns.
Not that she drank juice from a crystal goblet.
It's not like she takes a bubble bath and sprinkles rose oil on it.
The greatest luxury in the end times is love.
