Lu Yao wanted to open the door and take a look at what was going on outside. But his safety-first instinct made him suppress his curiosity.
In the kitchen, kitchen knives kept falling on the cutting board, and the sound reached Lu Yao's ears very clearly.
He could even tell from the friction between the knife and the ingredients that what was being cut was potatoes, and they were potato slices.
Oh, now it’s time to cut the slices into shreds.
His nose smelled the smell of broth. It was stewed with pork ribs and lotus root. It had a rich flavor.
Lu Yao stuck his head out of the window. Outside his room was a small living room, and the other side of the living room was connected to the small kitchen, so he could see the kitchen glass from the window position.
It's just that the kitchen glass is covered with broken window paper, so I can't see clearly what's going on inside.
The lights in the kitchen turned on, and a figure reflected on the window paper.
The figure has her hair tied up, has a slender figure, stands very steadily, and is cooking in the kitchen.
Lu Yao found that his eyesight suddenly became very good, and the visual picture was as if it had been improved from 720p to 1080p. Even if it was the shadow reflected on the window, he could see the lines of the other person's body and the specific movements of each chopping vegetable at a glance.
position and rhythm.
Are you... entering the zone mode of a legendary athlete?
wrong.
Not only the eyesight, but also the sense of hearing and smell have become far better than before, and the body's overall sensitivity to the outside world has been raised to a higher level.
This is completely different from yesterday. Why such a big change overnight?
The only reason Lu Yao could think of was that reminder.
【Population is the body, faith is the power.】
He thought before that this should be a description of the role of gods.
In the world of pixel games, the larger the population, the more productivity can be improved and the progress of civilization can be promoted. This exposes many hidden game rules and turns them into visual data.
Faith is easier to understand. Gods need faith to activate the power of miracles. Faith is strategic resources and ammunition. The more, the better.
Lu Yao now realizes that perhaps this sentence does not refer to the low-dimensional pixel world.
It also includes the real world in which he lives.
Various [sacrifice] and [gifts] can break through the dimensional restrictions through the temple, which shows that this game does have unimaginable power behind it.
Then it seems that it is not difficult to understand that the changes brought about by beliefs and population are directly fed back to the players as gods.
After thinking about this, Lu Yao found the reason.
The change in my physical cognitive ability this time must be due to the physiological changes brought about by the population of more than 10,000 people in the ghost town of Sanilo.
He sorted out his thoughts and returned his attention to the kitchen.
Lu Yao had determined that the shadow on the window was Zhou Qiang's girlfriend, Miss Yu Yao.
Zhou Qiang had a girlfriend in college, but later she was taken advantage of by a rich second generation, which was both lucky and unfortunate.
The good thing is that the girlfriend has revealed her money-worshiping traits now, rather than after getting married, so the loss is relatively small. The bad thing is that after all, she was robbed of her partner, which is a blow to any man.
Later, Zhou Qiang worked hard to run an online store, working early and late every day, and never had a girlfriend again. This was also the reason.
Before today, Lu Yao had never heard of this woman named Yu Yao.
Coupled with her strange behavior of cooking and singing in the middle of the night, Lu Yao felt even more suspicious.
…
When Lu Yao came back from get off work the next day, when he opened the door, he found that the living room table was full of dishes: boiled shrimp, pork rib soup, braised carp, taro chicken, salted duck, mushroom meat slices, and some freshly colored vegetables.
"Sit down, sit down, and eat together." Zhou Qiang said with a proud look on his face: "What Yu Yao did, is it okay?"
"There's nothing to say about her style and color...where is she?" Lu Yao didn't see Yu Yao on either side.
"She went out to buy some things. There were not enough condiments in the kitchen, toiletries, mops and the like."
Zhou Qiang opened a can of beer and took a sip.
Lu Yao sat next to him and put down the bag on his back: "Old Zhou, how did you and Yu Yao meet?"
"This is fate."
Zhou Qiang had a smile on his face.
…
He and Yu Yao started dating a week ago.
It was raining that night. Zhou Qiang went downstairs to get the returned goods and saw a girl standing under the eaves. She was wearing a black suspender skirt and looked at the ground in despair, looking like she was homeless.
Zhou Qiang hesitated for a moment and asked the other party if he needed help.
The girl remained silent.
As a result, Zhou Qiang returned home and found the girl coming up behind him.
He was startled and quickly took out his cell phone and said, "Don't mess around. I'm calling the police."
Zhou Qiang has been an online businessman for several years, so he knows very well that there are all kinds of people in this world, and it is necessary to be on guard against others. Even if the other person is a little girl, she may be a fairy trick, and she will be blackmailed if she is not careful.
Get on yourself.
As a result, the other party said, don’t you want to help me?
Zhou Qiang explained that it was just for the occasion, and everyone was just acting on the occasion, so don't take it seriously.
As he spoke, he turned on the phone and started recording to avoid falling into some new type of scam.
The girl said oh, turned around and left.
Before leaving, she said she was hungry and asked Zhou Qiang for something to eat.
Zhou Qiang thought to himself, this routine is too old, let’s see how I make it work. Just wait for me.
So he gave the girl a pack of ham sausage, two bags of milk, and a bag of sliced bread. He said generously that you were welcome to eat whatever you wanted.
The girl ate all these things in front of him.
"Any more?"
Zhou Qiang was shocked.
This woman is quite wild.
Okay, if you dare to eat it, I dare to give it to you.
Zhou Qiang took out the instant noodles at home and made a big pot of instant noodles for him. Then the girl gulped down the noodles.
He found a pack of meat waffles, and the girl ate them one by one with water.
Finally, he took out two cans of herring from the bottom of the box, and the girl scooped them up with a fork, chewing up the fish bones and swallowing them.
Zhou Qiang was convinced.
He said: "No, don't compete with me. Can I give up? Go to the toilet and dig it out. If you eat so much, you will die."
The girl said: "It's okay, thank you. You are the first person to give me food, and everyone else gives money."
Zhou Qiang was fooled.
He couldn't tell.
Does this person have a gastrointestinal problem or a brain problem?
The girl said her name was Yu Yao, she was 21 years old and had never read any books. She was introduced to work in the city, but the rogue agency took her ID card and tricked her into working as a nightclub hostess. She felt something was wrong and ran out on the street.
Wandering around and feeling hungry.
Zhou Qiang chatted with her and found that Yu Yao indeed showed a kind of ignorance. This ignorance was not disguised, but she really had no reaction to many things that everyone knew.
For example, she doesn’t know how to use a water heater or a smartphone, eats bananas with the peels on them, and doesn’t deliberately avoid exposure or shy away from the distinction between men and women... just like a female savage who has broken into modern society.
She is also a very good-looking female savage.
Hearing this, Lu Yao couldn't help but remind him: "Old Zhou, don't blame me for talking too much. Is there any possibility that...she is just faking it?"
"Maybe."
Zhou Qiang grinned: "Women are born to act. I understand this."
"If she is really pretending, then her acting skills are really Oscar-level. She keeps performing in front of me every day without showing any flaws. If she fails, I will admit it."
Lu Yao saw a kind of silent happiness on Zhou Qiang's face.
He likes that Yu Yao very much.
"She is very diligent. Really, she is the most diligent person I have ever seen." Zhou Qiang couldn't stop talking about his girlfriend.
"After she was with me, she washed all her clothes by hand and they were very clean."
"She cooks the food. She has a talent for cooking, and she can master it as soon as she learns it."
"She also rushes to do the heavy work of moving things around the house. It's embarrassing to say that she is stronger than me and has a much stronger appetite than me..."
"She's really nice to me."
Zhou Qiang took a sip of beer and said, "I have been unlucky for several years, and now my fortune has turned around."
Lu Yao always felt a little unreal.
"Doesn't she have any demands?"
"I have a request."
Zhou Qiang put down his beer: "She likes to eat meat, let me buy more meat."
At this time, the door was pushed open, and Yu Yao came back carrying large and small bags.
Lu Yao's nose twitched.
The taste of blood.
The strongest smell of blood lies on Yao's lips.
Thanks to Chongyang Shennong for supporting 100 starting coins.
