Pei Xiqing also drank a lot. When she got out of bed in the morning, her head hurt so much that her face turned pale.
It felt like being punched several times, causing swelling and pain from the inside out.
Last night she was chatting with Duan Xiaolin under the tree. Later, she got drunk and fell unconscious. She was probably carried back by him.
She rubbed her temples, got out of bed, put on her slippers and went into the bathroom to wash up.
I came out and drank two large cups of hot water. I saw the breakfast neatly arranged on the table. I tasted a few mouthfuls of porridge before reluctantly eating a little.
While eating a sandwich, the door was opened from the outside.
Duan Xiaolin stood at the door.
He was carrying a large bamboo basket in his hand.
In the other hand he held a sharp sickle.
He was dressed completely differently from usual. His various ascetic and low-key suits and custom-made clothes were gone, and he was wearing an ordinary shirt instead.
The cuffs were neatly folded up, and the black trousers wrapped around his sturdy legs, making him look strong and tall.
Although he is dressed in a low-key manner, he still looks very elegant when he wears it.
The only drawback was that there were bloodstains on his lower abdomen and cuffs.
Pei Xiqing bit the meat in her sandwich and looked at him blankly, "Brother Duan...what were you doing?"
Could it be that zombies came in?
She stood up immediately.
The man came in and saw that she was scared of everything. He smiled and said, "There are no zombies. They went up the mountain."
"You?"
"Um."
"What are you doing up there?"
"Dig yams." He put the bamboo basket on the ground and went outside to drag in half a wild boar.
"!!!???"
"Where did this come from?"
"We killed those we met on the road, and gave the remaining half to the villagers."
Pei Xiqing almost dropped his jaw in shock.
The wild boar was still bleeding and weighed at least five or six hundred kilograms, so it was easy for him to deal with it.
Xiao Yi was already drooling beside him.
The ground was probably covered with its saliva and wild boar's blood.
The little one kept chirping and couldn't stand it any longer. Pei Xiqing held it back and said, "Wait a moment."
Xiao Yi looked at her eagerly, then squatted obediently at her feet.
Pei Xiqing leaned over to take a look at the wild boar's corpse: "Isn't it infected?"
"Yes," the man explained, "but the infection isn't serious. There aren't any infected animals around here. Only one of its legs is infected, and that's been cut off and discarded."
"Oh my god, such a big wild boar, can we really finish it?"
"With this, there's probably nothing we can't finish." Duan Xiaolin raised his hand and grabbed a piece of meat and threw it over.
Xiao Yi immediately gobbled it up.
He devoured the piece of meat in seconds.
Pei Xiqing: "He's amazing."
"Little Yi is now half a parasite, and its food needs are greater than those of its kind." Duan Xiaolin squatted down. "This wild boar should be enough for it to eat for a while."
"Little girl, look how much your dad loves you. He even brings you food when he goes out."
The little one wagged his tail and rubbed against her, but Pei Xiqing rubbed his head and pushed him away: "Oh, your mouth is full of blood. Go lick it clean and come back here."
Duan Xiaolin waved at it: "Come here."
Xiao Yi went over happily.
The man fed her another mouthful of meat.
Duan Xiaolin said calmly, "I'm your father, then who's your mother?"
Xiao Xiao continued to rub against Pei Xiqing.
Pei Xiqing blushed, "What the hell? I was just saying it casually. Who wants to be a dog's mother? Go away, go be a father yourself."
She sat back down and continued eating her breakfast.
Duan Xiaolin sat next to him and fed the dog.
Curling his lips, he asked, "What do you want to eat for lunch and dinner?"
"Whatever, I like whatever you cook."
"Tuo."
He continued, "I'll remove all the meat later, pack it up and store it, and then I have to go out again."
"What are you going out for?"
"The village has allocated a piece of land for our family. I'll go take a look."
Pei Xiqing's eyes widened. "Earth?"
"If we want to settle down here, we can't just sit back and enjoy the scenery." He spoke slowly, as if he were discussing the key points of a meeting. "Once we have a clear goal, we need to personally implement it."
Pei Xiqing couldn't imagine the scene of the presiding judge working in the fields.
In the past, it would have seemed incredibly strange.
But he looked serious and was definitely not joking.
Pei Xiqing propped up his chin and silently looked at him for a moment. "Hey, I agree. If we want to settle down, the source of food and various daily necessities will be a problem. We can't always rely on the villagers for help, and asking them for things all the time is not enough. We should do it ourselves to have enough food and clothing!"
"So if you want to eat any fruits and vegetables, just tell me and I'll go find the seeds."
"I'll go with you."
"Tuo."
Pei Xiqing was eating breakfast when she saw him really start to cut the wild boar meat in an orderly manner, packing each piece into the freezer. She was stunned for a long time.
Unconsciously, he moved swiftly, as if he had dealt with tens of thousands of bodies before, skillfully cutting the pieces of meat and throwing the bones into the little one's mouth.
The man's hands may have held guns, military uniforms, and small, sharp torture instruments, but this was the first time he had done this kind of thing.
After Pei Xiqing had processed the meat, she took his hand and went to the kitchen to wash off the blood and stains on it.
Touching the calluses on his face from holding a gun, he raised his head slightly and asked, "Brother Duan, can we really not go back to the base?"
She asked softly, "Headquarters is actually your focus, right? After all, Farahlun is still there. You are the Chief Judge of Farahlun and the Chief Judge of everyone in the base. If you don't go back, what will happen there?"
After coming out of the ghost market, she never saw anyone from the base again, not even Sister Long Yan, Ling Lang, Brother Yingzi... she had never seen them again.
She didn't know where this place was exactly, but if it was too far away from the headquarters, it would be a pressure for him.
I don't want to see him running around, it's very tiring.
Duan Xiaolin put the dagger back into its sheath and lowered his eyes. "I've worked for headquarters for five years, five years without a break. It's only natural for me to take a vacation now."
In the past five years, he has interrogated countless people.
Even though the number of cases at headquarters has been increasing recently.
He also wanted to see what the people over there could do.
