228. Chapter 228: Showing Attention for No Reason



Jiang Yan stood up and frowned slightly while looking at the grassland and the vegetable garden not far away.

Everything in her space was good, except that there was no day and night.

It was not a good idea for this female reindeer to be exposed to the sun all day long.

She did have a lot of top-quality wood bought from Maple Leaf Country in her space, which could be broken down to build a shed for it.

But now that she had just arrived at the Flame Base, she didn't know what would happen, so she naturally couldn't stay in the space to do handicrafts for it.

There were still a few containers left, but they were too small.

After thinking about it, Jiang Yan took out the 130 small truck she bought when she first stocked up.

She looked at the size of the cargo box and found that it was more than enough to fit the female reindeer.

Jiang Yan put her finger on the cargo box and took it down with a thought.

She removed the door and found some sun-proof cloth for Huabao to help cover the top of the cargo box. She

searched with her mind and found a large bale of straw from the [Inventory Area].

The straw stack seemed to be collected by Jiang Yan when she was driving by a farm in a foreign country on her way to purchase supplies.

There were dozens of stacks.

They were originally used for feed or stinky tofu.

Now they came in handy.

She dismantled the straw stack and spread a thick layer of it in the cargo compartment.

While Jiang Yan was doing all this, the white reindeer was eating grass.

While eating, he turned his head and looked, his smart eyes brightened.

His hind legs can stand up now, but he would shake occasionally.

"Little deer, this will be your home from now on." After Jiang Yan finished all this, she walked to him and gently touched his head.

The reindeer seemed to understand what he said, and cried softly "Awoo" and "Awoo" a few times, then lowered his head and rubbed her arm gently.

"Mom, I want to stick to it too!" Seeing this, Huabao on the side also jumped to rub Jiang Yan's trouser legs.

Jiang Yan couldn't help but laugh: This child has learned a lot of words.

She patted the reindeer gently and pointed at the container, "Little deer, go and have a look, do you like it?"

"Awoo~"

The reindeer's hair trembled all over, and he walked towards the container.

"Awoo~"

It seemed to like the temporary nest that Jiang Yan built for it very much, and its cry was much happier.

Jiang Yan saw it lying down inside, and then she left.

It has been more than an hour since she entered the space.

Jiang Yan came in, mainly to solve the dinner and check the injury of the reindeer.

Now that everything was done, she took Huabao back to the igloo again.

It was pitch black inside the igloo.

Jiang Yan took out a night light and placed it on the side of the ice bed.

The light was very dim, but it was better than nothing.

Just as she was thinking about taking out a sleeping bag, the ground outside creaked and creaked, and then footsteps stopped in front of her igloo, and the wooden door was knocked "dong dong".

Jiang Yan didn't say a word.

"Sister, it's me." It was the "gypsy" man.

When there were people around, he would call Jiang Yan "brother."

When there were no one around, he would call her "sister."

I guess he did this out of a desire to protect her.

Jiang Yan didn't know what to correct him.

"What's the matter?" Jiang Yan walked to the door but didn't open it.

The snow house they rented was the cheapest and smallest.

The entrance was very small.

The door was built like a dog hole, and you had to bend down to get in and out.

Seeing that she didn't open the door, the other party knew that she was on guard, but she didn't get angry. Instead, she lowered her voice and said,

"Didn't you lose your luggage? And you just paid the rent, so you probably don't have any supplies left? I'll bring you some food."

"Oh, no, I still have some dry food, thank you." Jiang Yan declined.

The other party said,

"Actually, I knocked on the door just now. You didn't say anything, so I thought you went to the public toilet. By the way, there is also this rat skin mat. It is said to have a good warming effect. I just exchanged it and I'll give it to you.

If we sleep directly on the ice bed, we are not Yang Guo and Xiao Longnu, and we will get sick nine out of ten times. It's better to have this rat skin mat."

Rat skin mat?

It's good, but aren't you afraid of getting sick, like the plague?

Jiang Yan took a breath of cold air.

She was a travel blogger before the end of the world, and she had heard of or seen buildings from all over the world.

This snow house originated from the unique architecture of the Eskimos living in the northernmost region. Seal skins are usually laid on the ice bed, and lamps made of seal oil are lit in the house, and the wicks are made of seal hair.

It is said that when guests come to a particular family, they will also lay a layer of soft snow on the ice bed, and then a layer of branches on the soft snow, and then a layer of animal skin on the branches.

Such a snow bed is very warm to sleep on.

However, in a place like Jincheng, there are only a few seals, and at most they exist in the zoo before the end of the world.

Using mutant mice as a substitute sounds a bit disgusting, but it is reasonable.

"Sister? What do you mean?" Seeing that she didn't respond, the other party reached out and knocked on the door again.

"Little Detective" Hua Bao had already slipped out through the crack of the door.

He was the only one outside.

In one hand he held a bag of instant noodles, and in the other hand he held a piece of black rat skin.

The rat skin must have been specially treated, and the fur looked a little bright.

"Wait a minute." Jiang Yan put on a mask, changed to a pair of night vision glasses, opened the door, and crouched down to get out. He was being so

attentive for no reason, and he was so persistent.

She wanted to see what the other party was up to.

The blizzard was much bigger, "whoosh whoosh whoosh".

Even though Jiang Yan's body had been elevated by the space, and she was wearing top-notch cold-proof clothes, she was still shivered by the wind.

"I still have two packs of instant noodles, I'll give you one. The meat sauce bag has expired, but it's so cold that it won't be used. You can roll up the rest, sprinkle the seasoning bag in, and eat it as instant noodles."

As the other party spoke, he handed her a bag of spicy beef noodles.

It was night time now, and he couldn't see anything with snow goggles on, so he took them off.

Jiang Yan saw the other party's eyes, double eyelids, not too big or small, and the eyelashes were already stuck with wind and snow.

It seems that the other party has been out for quite some time.

"You gave it to me, so what are you going to do?" Jiang Yan did not take it, but did not directly refuse it, but deliberately said it.

The other party smiled, "Oh, I'll just spend the night outside tonight. I'll go to work when I enter the base tomorrow, so I won't have to worry about not having food."

Jiang Yan raised her eyebrows: "What if the quota for entering the base is full tomorrow? Then your job search will be in vain, right?"

"Well, definitely not tomorrow!"

The other party said firmly, and his tone lowered a few points before continuing:

"When I went to exchange motorcycles for supplies, I heard that the base temporarily refused to accept people into the base today. It's not because the quota is really full, but because there was an explosion in the area of ​​​​Guolo Mountain, which caused an avalanche and buried a team of core personnel of the base who happened to pass by there last night."
