Chapter 48: Baking Guokui and Building a Cellar

Among the "Top Ten Weird People in Shaanxi Province", there is a strange person called "Roasted buns look like pot lids", which refers to pot helmets.

"Dry, crispy, white and fragrant", there are many ways to eat it, but if it is cooked, it is also very delicious.

When it was time to eat, Li Xiang took three pot helmets and cut them into small pieces. You can also break them by hand, depending on your personal preference.

Boil water, pour the pre-soaked fungus and day lily into the pot and cook, then add the cut pot helmets, beat two eggs, sprinkle with pepper, salt and chopped green onion, and simmer for a while.

When Li Xiang was making pot helmets, grandma used tongs to hold a pot helmet, put it into the stove and slowly roasted it on the charcoal fire, turning it over while roasting. The sesame seeds on the surface of the pot helmet were sizzling and oily, and the aroma was overflowing.

Grandma knew that Li Xiang cooked Guokui to take care of his own taste, but the eldest grandson would definitely prefer grilled ones.

"Grandma, the boiled pot helmet is ready." Li Xiang filled a bowl of boiled pot helmet and brought it to grandma.

Grandma smiled and said: "Your roasted pot helmet is ready too!"

"Thank you, grandma." Li Xiang took the grilled pot helmet and went to get a small dish of hot sauce. He tore off a piece of the fragrant and hot pot helmet with his hands and ate it with the hot sauce. It was crispy and spicy, and it was simply delicious.

Li Xiang felt that if he had time, he could also learn to make pot helmets. After all, it’s not easy to go to the market in the village. In the apocalypse in the future, this kind of pot helmet will be easier to obtain than compressed biscuits.

Because compressed biscuits are produced by workshop assembly lines, and in the end of the world, the industry declines and there are not many factories left. Moreover, factories require more energy, which is far less cost-effective than pot helmets.

Li Xiang thought it was not enough to eat, so he poured all the hot sauce in the plate onto the pot helmet, tore off a small piece of the pot helmet and smeared it on it. Suddenly, a gust of north wind blew, making it chilly. Li Xiang looked at the sky and saw that the sky was hazy.

"In about twenty days, there will be an unprecedented heavy snowfall." Long-standing memories emerged from Li Xiang's mind, and he murmured softly.

At the time, this heavy snowfall was just a coincidence, because heavy snowfall was rare in the south. But who could have expected that from now on, it would become colder and colder year by year, and extreme weather would become more and more common.

Now think about it, "God" warned me as early as ten years before the end of the world, but no one paid attention to it.

Even if some people were alert, they only thought it was the reappearance of the Little Ice Age during the Ming Dynasty.

The Ming Dynasty was able to survive the Little Ice Age, so why should modern society be afraid of it?

Modern society can survive even the Great Ice Age.

Only Li Xiang knew that it was not the Little Ice Age or the Great Ice Age, but... "the sky fell", the real "sky fell", unprecedented, endless darkness, extreme low temperature, and plants unable to carry out photosynthesis ...There are also a large number of ferocious mutant creatures.

That is not a simple "polar night" at the North and South Pole, but an "icy eternal night" that will "exterminate all ordinary creatures."

Fortunately, "God" has a trace of "kindness" in the end. The Great Dao is fifty, Tianyan is forty-nine, and the "escaping one" is life.

When God closes a door, he will also open a small window. Human beings also have nuclear energy, electricity and "fire". The energy of the universe is conserved. Although the sun "went out" and turned into a lighter red giant, and was obscured by endless black fog, part of its heat followed the powerful demon in another form. Above the Earth...

Li Xiang couldn't help but shudder when he recalled his past life. Even if he "escaped", it was an extremely cruel world.

Fortunately, there are still ten years for him to prepare.

Li Xiang shook his head, cheered up, and returned to reality.

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, and living every day well is the most important thing. Many things cannot be rushed at all. Because there's no point in being anxious. He cannot stand alone against the power of nature.

After Li Xiang finished roasting Guokui, he decided to build a cellar first to hide the sweet potatoes. When the heavy snow comes, those sweet potatoes will probably freeze.

Then the house also needs to be strengthened. In addition, he looked at the simple bamboo house kitchen he built earlier. This kitchen is only suitable for spring, summer and autumn. In winter, it will be ventilated. Therefore, he plans to rebuild a warm and sturdy kitchen before the heavy snow. .

Now that you have money, it only takes a few days to build a kitchen.

The cellar can not only store sweet potatoes, but also other agricultural products, such as potatoes, taro, corn, etc.

Although Li Xiang has never dug a cellar in this life, in his previous life, he was the best at "drilling holes" to survive in the apocalypse. It will be so cold on the surface at the end of the world, and the surviving humans will naturally move underground.

Li Xiang is an expert in building underground shelters. He once served as technical guidance for some bases.

He thought for a moment and thought that since he wanted to build a cellar, why not build it under the kitchen so that food could be easily accessed.

"Looks like I need to design it carefully. I'm the 'hole-drilling' professional in my previous life!"

Li Xiang returned to the bedroom, found some blank paper, a pencil, an eraser, and a set ruler, then went to the pavilion in the backyard, where he bent down at his desk and began to seriously design the drawings.

I didn’t want to mention “the end of the world” now because it would be a spoiler, and because there are still ten years.

But some people always think that I will write according to the simple "dark night". How is it possible? The "Eternal Night" in this book is very complicated and cruel, so cruel that only a few tens of millions of people are left out of a population of tens of billions. If it were a simple night, shouldn't the population increase? Because it’s nighttime and I have nothing to do but do that and that.

In these ten years, the first few years will definitely be focused on "enjoying pastoral life and improving extraordinary strength". If you write about the end of the world right away, the system can do it a month or a few days in advance.
