Chapter 9: No Wheat, Bacon, or Dried Vegetables Left
Chapter 9: No Wheat, Bacon, or Dried Vegetables Left
Luo Xi thought about it and decided to ignore them. How could the smell of food fill one's stomach compared to men's quarrel? She avoided the crowd and floated towards the cellar.
You know what, it's quite easy to find. There are so many guards standing at the door, it would be difficult to find it.
Just when Luo Xi was about to get rid of them all with several space blades, the cellar door opened from the inside and several men walked out, each holding a pile of things in their hands.
"Guard Liu, these are all the things we need for tonight's celebration. Do you want to check them?" said the leading man and a bandit dressed as a guard next to him.
Guard Liu came over with an arrogant look on his face: "Of course, this is the rule."
He asked everyone to put their things down and started checking them one by one.
Luo was looking at his slow movements and the open cellar door, his eyes lit up: Good opportunity!
She quickly blocked the space for herself, hid her figure, then quickly avoided the crowd and slipped into the cellar.
"Eh~" At this time, Guard Liu looked puzzled and asked his companion next to him: "Did you feel something cold just now? It seemed like something passed by."
The companion's face changed: "You, don't scare me, it's late at night."
"What are you thinking about?" Guard Liu punched him: "I mean people or wild cats or something."
"These are troubled times, we must be careful." He handed over a lantern: "How about this, you go in and check it out, we will close the door if there is no problem."
"Okay, okay." The bandit took the lantern reluctantly and walked towards the cellar step by step. If you look closely, you can see that his legs are shaking violently.
Luo Xi didn't hide either. He just stood at the door, with his arms folded across his chest, looking at him leisurely.
But the next moment, this man's action instantly chopped Luo Xi to pieces, leaving him burnt on the outside and tender on the inside.
The robber stood five meters away from Luo Xi with his eyes closed, stomping his feet repeatedly, and then shouted: "Guard Liu, I'm going to check the east now... Well, there's nothing suspicious."
Then there was another "dong dong dong" and he shouted again: "Guard Liu, I went to the west to check, but there was nothing there."
Just like that, without even taking a step inside, he went out and said, "I looked carefully, there's not even a mouse, let alone a person, don't worry."
Until the cellar door was closed again, Luo Xi had not recovered from his outrageous action.
What a talent.
Five minutes later, Luo Xi finally squeezed out two words from his mouth: "Stupid! Lack!"
After saying that, she stopped thinking about it and took out a night light from the space. It was the kind that had been modified by a scientific madman in the base. It was very bright, and she leisurely began to check the supplies in the cellar.
She had just seen that this cellar had two doors, and the light from inside could definitely not get out.
But this sight shocked Luo Xi again.
In this wide hole, brown burlap bags of different sizes were stacked one on top of the other. Except for a few paths left for walking, the entire cellar was filled to the brim and there was no end in sight.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, there are so many things. No wonder he is so arrogant. He is not afraid of angering the public."
Just think about it, in the year of famine, when everyone was starving and skin and bones were all visible, only the people in Jiuqu Village were fat and strong. How eye-catching that was.
Luo Xi opened the nearest bag and saw small grains of light yellow corn.
Not bad, this thing is quite expensive in modern times.
I walked over and opened another bag, which was filled with wheat that gave off a natural wheat aroma.
This is even better. She hasn't seen such primitive and natural wheat for a long time.
When the time comes, you can make soft steamed buns or fragrant meat dumplings, which are so delicious.
There are also rice, soybeans, various bacon, dried vegetables, and many other varieties. I don’t know where they got them from.
Luo Xi was so happy. They were all natural foods, without the disgusting taste of being infected by the virus. This was something she missed very much.
At this time, my stomach was very smart and made a series of "gurgling" sounds.
Luo Xi raised his hands and clapped them, then sighed and said, "It's a pity that it's not convenient to cook in the cellar. Otherwise, it would be so delicious to cook a meal of pure natural food."
But she just complained and quickly put away the food while humming a little tune.
Not a single bag of corn, rice, or wheat was left out; not a single soybean, bacon, or dried vegetable was left behind.
After the harvest was completed, if it weren't for the pocket marks on the ground, I would have thought this was a cellar that had been vacant for a long time, and even mice would be dumbfounded if they came.
However, Luo Xi's space now had a mountain of food. It was fun to kill monsters and get free supplies. The bandits were robbing others anyway, so Luo Xi had no psychological burden at all.
She was very satisfied: "Well, although I can't cook, I can still eat bread and water."
So, Luo Xi filled his stomach with bread while thinking about the stewed rice with bacon.
"Now, it's time to go see if those bandits have finished their quarrel, and by the way, catch someone to ask where the treasury is."
When you come here, you naturally have to plunder everything before leaving.
However, Luo Xi estimated that this question could only be asked to the two leaders, and the others might not know the answer.
However, what Luo Xi didn't expect was that when she arrived at the square, the two groups of people had not finished arguing, and they were arguing even more vigorously than before.
"..."
Just, very speechless!
"Forget it, let's hide and wait for a while." Luo Xi floated to a patch of grass and sat down on the ground.
After thinking about it, it seemed that he was not quite there yet, so he took out a handful of melon seeds from the space, and while eating them slowly, he looked over there.
There were about two hundred people in the square, clearly divided into groups. The leaders were a bearded man and a tall man. They all held weapons in their hands and had angry expressions.
The bearded man's eyes were as big as copper bells: "Zhao Youjin, don't forget that I am the second in command. Now that my eldest brother is dead, it is my turn to be the first in command. Why do you disagree?"
The tall Zhao Youjin spoke in a light tone, saying something that was infuriating: "Shi Fang, with your stupid appearance of only having flesh but no brains, how can you be the head of the family? Don't make me laugh to death."
Shi Fang was not angry either, he snorted and said: "It's better than your sissy look. What's the use of having brains?"
"Don't forget, we are robbers, don't you understand? Don't tell anyone, you will have to sway your waist and hips to seduce the enemy before you can steal the things."
“Hahahaha——” There was an instant burst of laughter all around.
Zhao Youjin's face looked like a color palette, sometimes red, sometimes green.
The quarrel between these two people was quite interesting. Luo Xi's eyes were shining and he watched it more excitedly.
Over there, Shi Fang tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart, and kept his last bit of rationality, saying: "Shi Fang, since neither of us is willing to submit to the other, why don't we do this..."
He suggested: "Let's not fight over who's the boss anymore. Let's just take care of our own business and not get in the way of others. How do you think about that?"
Humph, when the matter is done, let’s see how he kills this guy without anyone noticing.
