The evening was a lively time, with countless survivors coming out to hang out, and there were also stalls selling barbecue, grilled squid, cuttlefish, kelp, sea fish...
There is no oil or seasoning, so you can imagine the taste. It’s so fishy that it will make you want to vomit.
The barbecue is still okay, but the seafood soup is even more fishy. All kinds of seafood are mashed and cooked in a pot, and the fishy smell can be smelled for three miles in the wind.
Even though Jiang Ning can't get used to the smell now, he didn't have the chance to eat it in his previous life. He was just lucky to have the opportunity in this life.
Now there are also many people who cannot afford to eat and are starving simply because they are short of money.
There are many villagers from fishing villages selling water on the roadside. Even though it also has the salty smell of the sea, it is still much better than directly filtering sea water.
However, there are many people asking but very few buying.
There were many people queuing up at the relief station in the distance, receiving relief food with their checkpoint passes.
The beach was crowded with people. For both safety and mood reasons, Jiang Ning didn't want to go over, so he queued up to receive relief food instead.
The rice balls are the size of a fist and can only be redeemed with a card within the first seven days, one per day.
Although they are called rice balls, they are actually just mashed raw seafood, added with flour or corn flour, and oatmeal, and rolled into balls. The color is really not good-looking, but it can fill the stomach.
There are three people and a dog, but there is no share for Coke.
It tastes really bad and it makes your throat sore, but no one complains about it because it is life-saving food.
Just as Huo Yishen was about to eat, he saw a child running towards the soldiers distributing relief food. The child looked at him helplessly and begged, "Uncle, I'm so hungry."
The soldier was very young, probably in his early twenties, and had a thin build.
He held the last rice ball in his hand, which was his food.
Looking at the child in front of him, he handed the rice ball to him without hesitation and said with a smile, "Eat it."
The child took the rice ball and stuffed it into his mouth desperately. Without even saying thank you, he turned around and ran away, covering his mouth.
At the same time, several children came over and surrounded the soldier to ask for food. "Uncle, I'm so hungry too. Please be kind and give me something to eat."
They surrounded him and grabbed his clothes to prevent him from leaving.
The soldier looked embarrassed, but he couldn't conjure food out of thin air.
He looked at the children helplessly, his voice choked with sobs as he said, "I'm sorry, uncle can't do anything."
That look was as if he had done something terribly wrong.
After making a fuss for more than ten minutes, the child left in disappointment when he saw that he couldn't get any food.
Huo Yishen walked over and handed him the rice ball.
At first, he didn't want to.
But he didn't know what Huo Yishen said, but he finally took the rice ball and started eating.
But I started crying while eating.
Doudou pinched the rice ball in her hand, turned her head and looked at Jiang Ning, her eyes inquiring, "Sister."
Jiang Ning didn't stop her, "Go if you want to."
Doudou stood up and ran to his brother, handing the rice ball in his hand to the soldier.
Then, she hugged him gently.
Doudou came back only after watching him finish the rice ball, looking particularly happy.
Huo Yishen came back and sat in silence.
Jiang Ning divided the rice ball in his hand into four pieces and said, "Try them all."
The mouth was full of salty and rough taste, but no one wasted it.
Huo Yishen took it and chewed it slowly. After a long while, he said, "Aning, do you think I am a deserter?"
Every time he saw them, he felt particularly uncomfortable.
"I don't think you are." Jiang Ning thought for a moment, "There are many ways to repay your kindness, and the way you insisted on before is not necessarily the right one.
Do you remember the shot from Lian Haoting? If you hadn't decisively shot and killed the leader of the Dragon Slayer Society, I don't know how many soldiers and police officers would have been sacrificed, as well as the survivors of the lower-level victims. The food seized could have saved many lives."
The moonlight was hazy, and she looked at him intently, "Look at him, he gave up his own food, and even if he encounters danger in the future, he will give up his chance to survive, but how many people can he save?
Let’s look at Zhong Ping again. He looks like a weak scholar, but he designed a mousetrap that prevented many survivors from being bitten by rats, and even prevented an epidemic or the Black Death from happening. Who dares to say that he is not a hero?
Huo Yishen, I believe that even if you don't follow the old path, you will have your own way of doing things, and more people will survive.
You are a human, not a god. You cannot handle this natural disaster on your own. There is no need to put too much pressure on yourself. "
Jiang Ning held his hand, interlocking their fingers tightly. "Besides, I believe you have done enough, and you have done it for your country. What's left is to live well, for yourself, for your family, and for those who love you and those you love."
Huo Yishen held her hand in his, the moonlight covering the red corners of his eyes, "Aning, thank you."
Whether to thank or not, Jiang Ning is the same.
If she hadn't met Huo Yishen, her personality might have been more sharp, but now she has become much calmer.
The beach is crowded at night and looks lively, but danger is everywhere.
Jiang Ning and others did not stay for long and drove the shabby car back to the villa.
After returning, they were not idle either. They gave the task of guarding the house to the two cats, while Jiang Ning and Huo Yishen went to the rooftop to install solar panels overnight.
The two planned to go to the dock early tomorrow morning to see the seafood that had just arrived, and then make specific stockpiling plans.
Huo Yishen was very quick-witted. He installed the system while reading the instructions. The two of them worked on it for several hours and completed the solar power generation system overnight.
After taking a shower, living in a high-end villa, and sleeping on a soft six-figure bed, Jiang Ning still felt it was not real.
It is clearly the end of the world due to natural disasters, but it feels like life is getting better and better.
Forget it, just enjoy yourself. Who knows how long you can live? Live every day well.
At two o'clock in the morning, the alarm clock rang on time.
