Xiao Jin and Xiao Cheng quickly ran back and brought back a skinned wild rabbit. Xiao Jin showed the rabbit to Chu Xiang and said with a smile, âWe have meat to eat tonight. What dish do you want? Tell me.â
Chu Xiang sat down on her knees and said with a smile. âDo you really think of yourself as a elder housekeeper? Letâs cook some broth and roast the rest. Find some condiments when you collect supplies next time. That way we can eat delicious food after hunting later.â
Xiao Cheng snorted, âYou really can order people about, but itâs better to hunt for you than to feed those white-eyed wolves.â
Chu Xiang was surprised: âYou used to hunt preys and provide for them? So many people? Would everyone get a taste?â
âWhy not? This is said to be a camp. They wash clothes, cook and fetch water, while we two go hunting. Heh, each of them kept grumbling about how much they have contributed, but never once considered how difficult and dangerous it is to go hunting. When they go to wash clothes and fetch water, we also have to stand guard. F*ck, the thought of it makes me feel regret,â Xiao Cheng brought up the past full of displeasure, and then laughed, âSome people are going to run out of meat in the future, but know nothing about collecting supplies. After a while, they may have to chew the sod, hahaha.â
Chu Xiang cut a branch and skewered a bunch of meat and grilled it. The meaty aroma filled the camp, making a bunch of people swallow unconsciously. They hadnât eaten meat for a few days. The Xiao brothers finally hunted a hare, but they were no longer together. Had they known, they would have supported Xiao Jin and opposed Wu Gang before.
Chu Xiang grilled a bunch of meat and took a bite first. She squinted and said happily, âItâs really like a barbecue outing. It would be even better with some beer and potatoes.â
Xiao Cheng pouted. âOutings are not this disgusting, and it will only get worse in the future. Donât dream about it.â
Chu Xiang grilled another bunch and handed it to Xiao Cheng. âHey, cute little brother, try my grilled meat. Donât be so pessimistic. There are rules for survival in any world, and you can enjoy life if you understand it. â
Xiao Chengâs eyes widened, and he retorted, âWho is the little brother? You look like a minor. Iâm your elder brother, okay?â
Xiao Jin suddenly laughed, âDear little brother, you guessed wrong. Xiangxiang is a month older than you, and you are indeed the younger brother.â
âShut up!â
Xiao Jin saw his red eyes because he looked directly at him and there was still fire. He suddenly leaned closer to his head and said in surprise, âHey brother, have you cried before? Before I came back? Did they bully you to tears?â
The rest of the inhabitants in the camp felt chills down their spines. They immediately shot them glances, only to hear Xiao Jin laughing out loud and snickering, âCute little brother, without me to protect you, you were actually bullied into crying?â
Xiao Cheng kicked him and said angrily, âShut up, you bastard! Will you die if you donât say a few words?â Xiao Cheng threw the twig at Xiao Jin after eating the meat skewer. He put on a cool expression, but his ears were all red. But Xiao Jin, the bastard, seemed to have discovered a new world, and kept talking.
Xiao Jinâs smile warmed up a lot. He was well aware that his brother must have been worried sick about him. Warmth spread in his heart, but his mouth just wanted to tease him. The visual impact of Wu Gang and the other personâs death was too strong. When he and Chu Xiang returned from the bath, he discovered that the feeling of unease that plagued him after his first kill had disappeared. At that time, all his attention was on Chu Xiang at the river, and he simply dumped all negative emotions behind him. Now he used this method to help his brother relax, hoping that his brother wouldnât develop any negative emotions.
They were chatting and laughing, eating deliciously and lively, forming a sharp contrast with the rest of the camp. The others in the camp were very careful when they walked back and forth, for fear that they might cause some trouble.
A man stared at the meat skewers in their hands, gulping, and finally couldnât help but speak, âEveryone is from the same camp. You are so strong in combat, so why donât you stay? We will continue to work together as before. What do you think?â
Xiao Jin replied coldly, âThat wonât work. In the future, we will go our separate ways and not interfere with each other.â
The man suddenly became frightened. âXiao Jin, we have old people and children to take care of. Now that Wu Gang is dead, only you can protect everyone, you canât leave.â
Xiao Jin retorted disdainfully, âWho are you? What obligation do I have to protect you? Just be honest and donât cook up any crooked ideas.â
The man must have plucked up the courage to speak for everyone and fight for them. As a result, he was treated with dislike, and the others didnât know didnât know how to pitch in a helping word or two. He got up and went back to the tent.
Seeing that the hare was all grilled, Chu Xiang immediately put out the fire. âLight can easily attract zombies. Letâs not get any more of this. Get some rest and leave early tomorrow.â
âLeave? Where are we going?â Xiao Cheng nibbled at the rabbit and looked up at her.
Chu Xiang looked back at him. âGo anywhere, wherever you want. Do you want to live here forever? Do you think itâs safe here?â
Xiao Cheng glanced at Xiao Jin. âBrother, do you really want to leave? Do you think so too?â
Xiao Jin frowned slightly and thought for a while, then asked Chu Xiang, âDo you have a destination in mind?â
âNo. There are so many houses on the roadside. When it gets dark, we can find a place to stay. When weâre hungry, we can find something to eat. When weâre tired, we can take a rest. Isnât it good?â Chu Xiang dug out the sweet potatoes and ate them with the broth.
Xiao Jin once again felt that Chu Xiangâs brain circuit was particularly strange. Everyone was looking for a safe place to hide, but Chu Xiang wanted to go everywhere. She even spoke as if it was for fun. She has too much guts! But thinking back on it, Chu Xiang broke into the mall alone when they met. Had it not been for her courage and skill, it would be impossible for one person to take on more than 20 zombies and get him out.
