Chapter 86 Let’s grow some vegetables ourselves?
Meeting Li Chuang's eyes, Nanci was not particularly surprised.
After the Scar Man and the others came, the commotion was not small.
Living on the same floor, it was impossible for Li Chuang not to hear those movements. Driven by curiosity, it was normal for him to want to see what was going on now.
Nan Ci was very indifferent, but Li Chuang was obviously not like that.
Li Chuang was startled, his face turned pale, and he subconsciously wanted to close the door.
But halfway through the lock, Li Chuang didn't know what he thought of, so he stopped abruptly and gave Nan Ci a stiff smile.
"Nan Nanci, are you okay?"
Nan Ci shook his head, "It's okay."
Li Chuang still stammered, "What about those people?"
"They are all dead." Nan Ci said calmly, "What? Do you know them?"
"No! I don't know him!" Li Chuang shook his head like a rattle, "I don't know him at all, I just thought. They don't look like good people. It's good to die, it's good to die!"
Listening to Li Chuang's words, Nan Ci just curled his lips, without delving into the meaning, truth or falsehood.
No matter what Li Chuang was thinking, it actually didn't matter.
As long as Li Chuang is afraid of her and doesn't take the initiative to cause trouble, that's enough.
Nan Ci didn't want to talk to Li Chuang anymore, and Li Chuang obviously felt the same way.
Li Chuang glanced at the big bag in Nan Ci's hand and said with a smile, "Do you still have something to do? Then I won't disturb you. You can hurry up and get busy!"
Hearing Li Chuang's words, Nan Ci nodded, "Okay."
Just as Nan Ci was about to walk to 3202, the door of 3202 opened, and Mu Qianqian poked her head out.
"Nan Ci, who are you talking to? I heard it in the house."
"No one, I just met Boss Li and said a few words."
"Boss Li!"
Mu Qianqian said while looking towards Li Chuang. After seeing Boss Li, Mu Qianqian smiled on her face and said, "Hello, Boss Li. We are about to have dinner. Do you want to come together?"
When Li Chuang heard this, his big round head suddenly shook like a rattle at double speed.
"No, no, you eat, you eat. My family is still waiting for me to eat, so I will go home first."
The smile on Mu Qianqian's face did not change, "That's a pity. In this case, Boss Li, please go back quickly and don't keep your family waiting."
After Li Chuang agreed, he hurriedly retracted his head and closed the door at the same time.
He looked anxious, as if a ghost was chasing him.
Mu Qianqian looked at the door of room 3201 with a puzzled face, "Nan Ci, what's wrong with him?"
Nan Ci smiled and said, "I guess I'm hungry!"
"So that's it!" Mu Qianqian said, rubbing her belly, "Don't say he's hungry, I'm hungry too, let's go inside quickly, the bottom of the pot is probably boiling. "
The two of them stopped talking and entered 3202 together.
Because the cotton curtain was re-hung leading to the living room, it not only blocked the wind coming in from the door, but also blocked some smells in the living room. Nan Ci could only vaguely smell the fragrance from the bottom of the pot.
It wasn't until Mu Qianqian quickly stepped forward and opened the cotton curtain that the smell of the spicy hot pot soup floated out and hit Nan Ci's face.
All in all, it had been a while since Nan Ci had cooked hot pot. Smelling the rich aroma, the gluttons in his stomach became active.
In addition to being able to place a large pot on the large pot stand, there is also a lot of free space.
At this time, most of these free places were occupied by plates and bowls, and the plates and bowls contained all kinds of hot pot ingredients, including meat and vegetables.
Except for the lack of green leafy vegetables, these ingredients can be said to be very rich.
Nan Ci raised the bag in his hand, "I brought some bacon over. You can put it in and cook it first. The meat needs to be cooked for a while to get more flavor."
The old Taoist priest casually picked up a sharp and slender knife from the large pot stand, "Leave it to me. I'll cut everything and put it in."
After watching the old Taoist priest play with a blade, Nan Ci knew that the old Taoist priest was very good with a knife, and he could indeed leave this matter to him.
After Nan Ci took out a few bottles of sauce from the bag, he handed the bag to the old Taoist priest.
Zhou Ziyang helped the old Taoist priest pack all kinds of bacon, while Mu Qianqian got close to Nan Ci and worked with Nan Ci on how to adjust the sauce.
The four cats and the little turtle didn't want to eat hot pot. They got together, and it wasn't clear whether they were having a meeting or gossiping.
By the time the four of them had prepared everything and finally sat down to eat, the sky outside had already darkened.
The wind and snow are still there, and snowflakes are swirling in the air, making people feel bitingly cold just by looking at them.
But they didn't feel cold at all as they gathered around the steaming hot pot and had fragrant hot pot to eat.
The taste of hot pot is very rich, especially after it is boiled and cooked for a long time, the taste becomes more fragrant.
Although there are no windows, there are vents so the smell can still escape.
In Building 11, some people smelled the fragrance.
Regardless of the cold, he leaned against the window and breathed hard.
It's not that Nan Ci and the four of them didn't know that others would smell this fragrance, but they didn't care.
The end of the world is here, and the number of people killed can’t be counted even if you put your hands together. If you still care too much about other people’s opinions and don’t dare to eat or drink, then what are you still doing?
The advantage of hot pot is not only that it tastes delicious, but also that you can chat while eating without having to worry about the food getting cold.
The four of us ate this meal for more than two hours, adding water to the bottom of the pot three or four times to avoid burning it dry.
At the end of the meal, four packs of instant noodles were cooked in it.
Seeing the noodles sizzling in the pot, Mu Qianqian sighed, "What a pity, there are some vegetables missing, otherwise it would be more appetizing!"
In City X before the apocalypse, the price of vegetables would be relatively expensive, but generally everyone could still afford it.
But now, first there has been heavy rain for more than a month, and now there is ice and snow. It is simply harder to eat vegetables than to climb to the sky.
Zhou Ziyang and the old Taoist priest also sighed repeatedly, but Nan Ci remained silent.
For Nan Ci, green vegetables are really not worth it.
Scatter the seeds, and in a few days, they will grow into lush green vegetables. She can't eat them all by herself, so she can only pick them and store them in the basement.
Because green vegetables grow so fast and you can eat them for a long time after planting them once, Nanci doesn’t even plant them now.
But with so many vegetables, Nan Ci could only eat them slowly by himself, and could not share them with Mu Qianqian and the others.
Even though they are partners now, space is Nan Ci's biggest secret and must not be revealed.
After thinking for a while, Nan Ci said softly, "How about we try to grow some vegetables ourselves?"
