Chapter 121 Let’s go together
“Let’s go,” Pei Gan stood up with a gloomy face, “Go and have a look at another house.”
The two houses are not far apart, about 15 meters apart. , thanks to the dark man turning up the stove in the other room, so as soon as he entered the door, there was a warm feeling.
This made everyone feel relieved to some extent.
After a brief inspection, the layout inside is roughly the same, with a small hall in the middle and a bedroom on the east and west sides.
Other than that, nothing strange was found.
"We." Jiang Zhongyi's tone paused, "Are we going to sleep here tonight?"
Pei Gan looked around, especially standing at the door, and asked After looking outside for a long time, he suddenly said: "Sleep separately tonight. Four of us will live here, and the other four will go back to sleep."
Hearing this Jiang Zhongyi even suspected that there was something wrong with his ears. Just now he was saying that there was something wrong here, and I was afraid there would be danger at night, why now
Zhou Rong's face was cold, and the radical attitude he showed often conflicted with Pei Gan, but On this matter, the two agreed. He nodded and said: "I agree with Mr. Pei."
"Look," Zhou Rong pointed to the door, "You can see the front yard from here, and you can also observe another room from this direction."
"And from the other room The room can see the backyard and the building," Zhou Rong stared at the largest building in the courtyard.
The reason why we don’t use the word house to describe it is because it is too big, twice as big as the two houses put together.
At this moment, it stands alone on the west side, melting into a black shadow in the dark night.
And this shadow brings everyone inexplicable uneasiness.
"We live in these two rooms separately, and keep someone in each room to keep vigil. This way, the view will be much better, and we can be alerted as soon as possible in case of emergencies." Zhou Rong said, staring at the shadow.
What he said sounded reasonable.
"Gululu——"
A hasty and somewhat embarrassing voice sounded from behind.
Everyone turned around and saw Chen Xiaomeng, who was at the end, squinting to the right in embarrassment, as if the sound just now had nothing to do with her.
No wonder, after walking on the mountain road for most of the day and only having a few mouthfuls of porridge in the morning, it was hard for her to endure it until now. Most people looked at her kindly.
Only
Jiang Cheng rushed to Chen Xiaomeng and asked, "Long'er, are you hungry?" Can Ping'er find you something to eat?"
Chen Xiaomeng looked annoyed at him, she gritted her teeth. He said in a loud voice, "Go away, I won't eat your food even if I starve to death."
"Oh~~" Jiang Cheng straightened his body and took out sweet potatoes from his bulging clothes very naturally. He nodded and replied: "That's it, then I'll be relieved."
The others were shocked when they saw the sweet potatoes that Jiang Cheng took out one by one. They couldn't figure out how Jiang Cheng hid them in his clothes and carried them all the time.
But when you have sweet potatoes to eat, who cares about those?
Everyone sat in a circle obediently, staring eagerly at Jiang Cheng as he arranged the sweet potatoes one by one and placed them on the edge of the stove to roast.
There are eight sweet potatoes in total, some are big and some are small, but they all look very delicious.
After walking on the mountain road for a day, they stopped thinking after smelling the aroma of sweet potatoes.
At this time, Benfu, who had a clear mind, even came up with the idea of whether a ghost would suddenly appear and steal their sweet potatoes.
But fortunately, his worries disappeared as the fragrant sweet potatoes came out of the oven.
Even the painter Pei Qian, who has always been mature and prudent, swallowed a few big mouthfuls of saliva unconsciously.
Everyone resisted the urge to grab the sweet potatoes and waited for Jiangcheng to distribute the sweet potatoes.
After all, sweet potatoes are taken at risk, not stolen.
Jiang Cheng found a piece of relatively clean cloth, wrapped it around his hand, quickly picked up a sweet potato, and broke it gently. It was full of golden color inside.
Zhou Rong's throat rolled hard. He had never thought sweet potatoes were so delicious.
"Mr. Pei," Jiang Cheng smiled and handed the sweet potato over, "this is yours."
Pei Qian was stunned for a moment, then quickly stood up and said with the highest courtesy , was flattered and accepted the hard-won sweet potato, nodded and said: "Thank you, Mr. Yin."
"You're welcome."
Then in order, Jiang Cheng handed out the sweet potatoes one by one.
"Thank you, Mr. Yin," Li Lu thanked her sincerely, and then took the sweet potato in her hand.
There are three sweet potatoes left now. In addition to my own, the largest one, there are two smaller ones that are almost melted in their roasted flesh.
There are two left, Yu Man and Chen Xiaomeng, who have not received sweet potatoes.
At this moment, perhaps due to the influence of the aroma of sweet potatoes, Chen Xiaomeng's stomach growled more and more fiercely, but she still stubbornly turned her head away, not looking at Jiang Cheng or saying a word.
"There are two sweet potatoes left," Jiang Cheng held one in each hand, not too hot to touch, and acted very embarrassed, "One big and one small, how do I divide them up?"
"Of course they are all. Let Mr. Yin make the decision," Yu Man's eyes were hot and blurry, and even his words had a hint of charm, which made people think wildly.
Jiang Cheng took the opportunity to take a few more glances at Yu Man, who was sitting on the ground, revealing a little of the scenery. After a while, he said with a rosy face: "Then let's divide them according to size."
Said Afterwards, he gave the larger sweet potato to Yu Man and left the obviously smaller one to Chen Xiaomeng.
At this moment, Chen Xiaomeng, under Li Lu's persuasion, was ready to endure this breath for the time being, and be the first to strangle this bastard to death when he gained strength after eating.
But just when Chen Xiaomeng endured her anger and was about to imitate the ancients and endure the humiliation and accept the sweet potatoes, an unexpected scene happened.
Jiang Cheng actually retracted his hand, then divided the sweet potato, which was not large, into two, and then gave him the smaller piece after comparison.
“This should be enough,” Jiang Cheng said, nodding.
This obviously bullying behavior did not arouse any criticism. Everyone buried their heads in digesting the sweet potatoes in their hands. This was in a nightmare, and the reality would not work here.
Basic etiquette, justice and shame can all be forgotten here, as long as necessary.
Everyone's only purpose is to survive.
"Okay," Zhou Rong wiped his hands and was the first to stand up from the ground, suggesting: "It's getting late, everyone should rest early."
Tired After a long day, what they needed most was to rest. They had not felt it before. Now that they had replenished some energy, the feeling of exhaustion came out all at once.
The next step is to arrange accommodation.
While everyone was worrying about how to arrange Jiang Cheng and Chen Xiaomeng, Chen Xiaomeng, who had finished eating the sweet potatoes and wiped her mouth, stood up.
She looked at Jiang Cheng, and her originally livid and cold face suddenly melted away. "Mr. Yin," she smiled and said affectionately, "Let's go together tonight."
Thank you Reward from the Demon King Brothers!
