Chapter 260: Salt is Valuable
Oh!
Listening to the roar of the unknown creature outside, Li Zhi's whole person was a little bad, and he didn't know if this special code was playing with fire*.
Although it was not dark yet, the sun had already set outside, and without the sun, whether it was the forest outside or the ruined city, the city would be a world of mutant beasts.
"Don't worry, with Lao Huang nearby, it's not too powerful a mutant beast, so it won't come to trouble us!" Shi Sha glanced at Li Zhi and said casually.
Li Zhi asked softly, "What if there is a mutant beast that is stronger than Lao Huang?"
Shi Sha shrugged her shoulders and replied, "Then you run faster!"
Depend on!
Why does it sound like it's always yourself who gets hurt?
Fortunately, although the beasts roared outside, no mutant beasts came to find trouble, and almost half an hour later, the meat of the mutant rat was almost roasted, and Shi Sha extinguished the rest of the fire.
"It smells pretty good!" Li Zhi muttered with a smile.
"Except for the lack of condiments, the mutant rat tastes good, and it's a delicious dish. Shi Sha said, pulled out the dogleg knife from his waist, cut off the thigh of a mutant rat, and threw it to Li Zhi: "Taste it, maybe this is your last meal." ”
Li Zhi rolled his eyes, people are not bad, but their mouths are a little 'cheap'.
"Just eat like this?" Li Zhi looked at Shi Sha, the mutant rat's hair was not plucked, it was just roasted like this, could it be that even the roasted fur was eaten with the skin? Although the skin and fur were already burnt, but just like this, there was no way to eat it.
Shi Sha ignored her, took out a dagger from her body, and threw it to him.
Li Zhi took the knife and reluctantly scraped the burnt paste on the mutant rat's thighs, anyway, the lights in the building were very dim, and it felt almost over, Li Zhi couldn't help but take a bite when he picked it up, and he didn't get sick after eating it.
The taste of the original barbecue, and the meat of the mutant rat is very tender, and there is a hint of sweetness in the mouth.
As Shi Sha said, the taste is very good, except that there is no taste, it must be cooked well, it is definitely an excellent dish.
"How long has it been since you eaten salt?" Li Zhi looked at Shi Sha and suddenly asked.
Shi Sha was stunned for a moment, thought for a while and said, "It's probably been five or six months for so long, salt is too expensive, and the meat of ten mutant rats may not be able to change so much for fingernails." ”
Li Zhi looked at her and said, "You want to hunt ten mutant rats, and you have a rhubarb gang to support you, it shouldn't be difficult, right?"
Shi Sha nodded: "It's not difficult, but it's not easy to transport, the corpse of the mutant beast is easy to provoke a powerful mutant beast, and I'm alone." After a slight hesitation, he said: "And if you want to change, you must go to the human gathering place to change, after the ten mutant rats enter the gathering place, there will be only five left." ”
Li Zhi frowned: "When you enter the human gathering place, do you have to hand over half of your belongings?"
"Nominally, it's thirty percent, but there are other places that will deduct you, and if you can leave half of it, it's pretty good!" Shi Sha said.
It can be heard that Shi Sha doesn't seem to have much affection for the human gathering place outside the city.
"What about the water? Are the nearby water sources polluted? Groundwater is also inedible?" Li Zhi turned to another topic.
Shi Sha shook her head and said: "There is no pollution, but in almost all waters, there are powerful mutant beasts, compared to land, where there is water, it is more dangerous, because not only humans need water, but also evolutionary beasts and mutant beasts." ”
After a slight pause, he said: "As for the groundwater, some of it can be eaten, and some of it cannot, the human gathering place outside the city, all of which have survived until now, is because of the underground water source, in the gathering place, water is equal to gold, and it can be exchanged for anything, and most of the water that people who beg for a living nearby drink is exchanged for it from the gathering place." ”
"What did you drink too?" asked Li Zhi.
Shi Sha took the mutant rat leg in his hand, looked at Li Zhi and said, "I usually exchange it with the hunters nearby, and when I can't change it, I will also drink the blood of the evolution beast." ”
“…… Drink it raw?"
Shi Sha couldn't help but roll his eyes and said, "It's cooked, can you still drink it?"
Li Zhi scratched his head, laughed dryly, shook his head and said, "Then I don't know, I haven't experimented!"
gnawing on the thighs of the mutant rat over and over again, Li Zhi asked miscellaneous questions, Shi Sha was relatively easy to talk here, and basically answered Li Zhi's questions, anyway, what he asked was not a secret, they were all questions that there was no need to hide.
"Can this mutant rat's thigh allow me to break through the genetic lock and become an evolutionary?" Li Zhi asked as he looked at Shi Sha with hope.
Shi Sha smiled and said, "It depends on your luck, if you are lucky, this mutant rat's thigh is enough for you to become an evolutionary, and you don't even need to eat the flesh and blood of the evolution beast, just breathe the air in this world!"
Li Zhidao: "Then what if you are unlucky?"
"Not good? Maybe you can't become an evolutionary by eating a trainload of mutant rats. Whether you can become an evolutionary or not depends not only on luck, but also on character. I don't think you're a good person, so you don't have much chance of becoming an evolutionary. Shi Sha said with a smile.
Depend on!
What does it mean that one's character is not very good, and what is wrong with one's own character? Since childhood, the teacher has said that he is the most lovely, okay!
Li Zhi didn't believe much in Shi Sha's words, whether he could become an evolutionary or not, there must be a fixed formula, not how much energy he had accumulated, or what method of breakthrough he needed, but the people in this world of knowledge had not mastered it.
"Have you eaten enough?" Shi Sha looked at Li Zhi and asked softly after seeing that he hadn't finished eating a mutant rat's thigh, and after slowing down the speed of his mouth on the mutant rat's thigh.
What she meant was to ask if the thigh of a mutant rat was enough for Li Zhi to eat. The size of this mutant rat is not small, and Shi Sha and Li Zhi, together they can eat less than a mutant rat's thigh, Li Zhi has more than half left in his hand, and Shi Sha has less than half in his hand.
The flesh and blood of mutant beasts contain very high calories and energy, and ordinary people can be very full as long as they eat a little.
"I'm full!" Li Zhi nodded.
Shi Sha raised her hand and slapped her face twice, and after a while, Lao Huang jumped up from outside and walked over. He lowered his head and chewed the rest of the mutant rats, including the bones, and swallowed them into his stomach.
It eats much faster than Shi Sha and Li Zhi.
It was almost completely dark outside, Shi Sha put away the dogleg knife, stood up, and was about to walk outside.
"Hey, where are you going?" Li Zhi hurriedly stood up, the other party was going to leave him behind.
"It's about to get dark, of course I have to find a hidden place to rest, is it possible to spend the night outside with you? Aren't you going home?" Shi Sha asked very curiously.
Li Zhi was speechless, home, which home did he go back to?
