After Zihua filled up the car with oil, she bought two more barrels of oil as backup and drove out of the city.
I drove for five or six hours yesterday, and I almost walked a quarter of the way.
After leaving the city, we only walked on the highway for half an hour and turned to the ordinary cement trail according to the signs.
It's a good situation to be able to walk on a cement road. Sometimes we have to go around to a temporary dirt road and the speed cannot be increased.
If this continues, there's no telling when Zihua will arrive.
The distribution of spatial breakpoints is not even, with some places having more and other places having fewer.
The further you go, the more breaking points there are in space.
The city she stayed in yesterday was as lucky as Fengshi. The space break points were located in no-man's land on the outskirts. There were very few casualties, so life in the urban area was relatively stable.
But some cities are not so lucky.
When Xiao An and Xiao Ning first encountered a halo, they were still very curious. They would count which halo they had encountered, which one was the largest and which one was the smallest.
Later, I encountered more and more, and it was no longer novel. Some of the breaking points fell right in the urban area, and most of the urban area was destroyed. Seeing half of the buildings with my own eyes was more impressive than what I saw on TV.
Seeing the almost abandoned city outside the car window, Xiao An and Xiao Ning became depressed and stopped talking.
Zihua saw that it was noon. When he arrived at the next small town, Zihua was going to rest here for a while and have something to eat.
The town is not big, and half of the houses are empty, making it look like an empty town.
There was only one restaurant open and there were no options. She saw that the ingredients in the restaurant were relatively fresh, so she parked her car in front of the restaurant.
The shopkeeper came over and said apologetically, "Are you here to eat? I only accept cash here. There is no way to pay online. Also, you have to pay first."
Yuhua took out a few hundred-yuan banknotes and said, "I'll pay in cash."
The restaurant only makes one kind of mutton noodle soup and two cold vegetable dishes.
Zihua ordered, "Three bowls of noodles, one plate of each type of dish."
"Okay." The shopkeeper took the money.
Surprisingly, there were a lot of people in the restaurant. Four or five tables in the room were all occupied, so the three of them had to sit outside.
Judging from the interaction between diners and hotel owners, it can be seen that the diners are basically people from the town.
Zihua took Xiao An and Xiao Ning to the toilet and washed her hands.
The road conditions are not good and both drivers and cars are tired.
After riding in the car all morning, Xiao An and Xiao Ning felt a little tired.
Judging from their situation, it would be better for them to sit outside.
The great changes have brought changes in the weather. In the past, it was still very hot in mid-August, but this year's August is as cool as the Mid-Autumn Festival. You can wear two layers of clothes at noon without getting too hot.
This temperature is very comfortable for people. Sitting outside and enjoying the slightly cool breeze can make people clear their minds.
Xiao An and Xiao Ning sat for a while, smelling the aroma wafting from the big pot of boiled mutton soup, and became energetic.
The soup is all ready and the noodles are served quickly.
It tastes as good as it smells.
…
Tian Qiuling is also having dinner at home.
"It's a lot of stewed vegetables again, but I won't eat them." Seeing the stewed chicken with potatoes, beans and tofu on the dinner table, Xiong Tianshuai crossed his hands angrily, "I want to eat fried chicken legs, not vegetables."
Xiong Jie frowned and said, "Eat quickly. You are so skinny, you are picky about food. You still have chicken to eat here. You watch on TV that many places can't eat chicken even once a week, and you are still picky."
Xiongtian Shuai frowned, "I don't like chicken."
Tian Qiuling came over with a plate, put it in front of Xiong Tianshuai, and said angrily, "It's indispensable for you. I'll fry the chicken legs for you alone."
"Fried chicken legs." Xiong Tianshuai was happy, reached out and grabbed one and started to chew it.
"It's just you who spoils him." Xiong Jie didn't blame him, he just said casually and put food into his mouth.
The family had a great time eating.
"Wow."
There was a sound of clattering dishes from the kitchen.
The chopsticks in Tian Qiuling's hand hit the table, "You're worried girl. I'll go check and make sure you don't drop the bowl again."
Got up and went to the kitchen.
In the kitchen, the little girl was squatting in front of a large plastic basin, washing a pile of bowls, plates, large spoons and other kitchen utensils used for cooking.
She was holding a large bowl full of oil stains with one hand, and with the other hand she was holding a dishwashing brush and smearing dishwashing liquid on it.
Her hands were small and it was difficult to grasp with one hand.
"We are knocking on the bowl again, can you please help people worry a little bit more?" Tian Qiuling arrived before anyone else.
When she made a noise, the little girl's body twitched, and the ocean bowl in her hand slipped from her hand and fell to the concrete floor, breaking into two pieces.
As soon as Tian Qiuling entered the kitchen, she saw the bowl fell down, and it jumped to the ground. She got angry and said, "You did it on purpose. I asked you to wash a bowl and you dropped it. Tell me, you dropped it this month."
How many."
When the little girl saw Tian Qiuling's cannibalistic look, she held her head in fear and screamed.
"How dare you howl?" Tian Qiuling turned around, found a bamboo stick, grabbed it in her hand, and whipped it towards the little girl, "I'll let you throw the bowl, I'll let you throw the bowl. Stop screaming!"
The little girl was spanked several times before she stopped screaming.
Tian Qiuling got angry, kicked the broken bowl aside with her feet, and pointed the bamboo stick at the little girl, "Wash the rest carefully, or you won't be able to eat today."
The little girl numbly put her hands into the plastic basin, took out a plate, and started washing it.
"I gave you food and you screamed at me. Go and hate your own mother. It was she who sold you to me."
Tian Qiuling turned back to the room and complained to Xiong Jie, "I can't keep this girl anymore. She looks annoying. When will the person you mentioned come over? Tian Shuai, what are you going to do?"
Xiong Tianshuai had already jumped down from his chair, "My chopsticks are full of grease. I'm going to get new chopsticks."
"Don't tease her." Tian Qiuling saw through Xiong Tianshuai's thoughts, but her attempt to stop her was weak, "Don't let her scream again."
Xiong Tianshuai rushed out in a few steps.
Xiong Jie gnawed on the chicken feet and echoed Tian Qiuling's previous words, "It will still take a few days."
"I didn't want to wait for a few days. If I hadn't thought about spending 10,000 yuan and losing money by throwing it away, I would have thrown her away long ago."
Over there, Xiong Tianshuai ran into the kitchen, took the remaining chicken drumsticks he gnawed, and shook them in front of the little girl, "Hey, you can learn to crawl like a dog and bark, and I will give you the drumsticks to eat."
Smelling the aroma of chicken legs, the little girl swallowed her saliva, but she didn't do what Xiong Tianshuai said and was still washing the dishes in the plastic basin.
Xiong Tianshuai took the chicken legs back and took a bite, "It's so delicious. It's a pity that you can't eat it."
The little girl's stomach made a growling sound.
"Hahaha, your mouth will growl, and your stomach will growl too." Xiong Tianshuai became happy, chewed a few times, and stuffed the chicken leg bone into the little girl's mouth, "Here it is for you to eat."
