Gu Peihuai didn't expect Qian Yan to ask such a question. He paused and asked, "Are you out of food?"
"I'm surprised. You lied and didn't write a draft? I didn't take any more of the ones I brought back from the warehouse that day. How many days have they been gone?"
Qian Yan was a little speechless. The previous few times they had stocked up on food, they had clearly done it together. Even though her appetite had been so exaggerated recently, she would not have eaten all of it.
Gu Peihuai seemed to have just realized this.
"Ahem." He cleared his throat awkwardly.
"I can help you find supplies, and you can cook."
"Aren't you afraid that I will swallow your stuff and not give it to you?"
"If you want it, I'll give it to you." Gu Peihuai said nonchalantly.
"Then why should I cook for you? What benefits do I have?"
Just kidding, she still has to live on her laurels every day. If Gu Peihuai also eats, how long can the ready-made ones last...
And if Gu Peihuai runs out of supplies over time, will she still have to be responsible for raising him?
"This building is already in chaos. I can guarantee that they won't be able to harass you."
"You are a bit boastful, how can I believe you?"
"Bang!"
The fire hydrant in the building shattered with the sound, but Gu Peihuai's punch was so easy that it seemed to be easy for him.
"Tsk, that's really violent."
Qian Yan raised her eyebrows. She had always recognized Gu Peihuai's strength. Although she didn't know where he got this skill from, judging from the previous cooperation, Gu Peihuai's strength was indeed
Blameless.
"It's okay to take care of you, but I don't need you to take care of all the trouble for me."
Gu Peihuai was slightly surprised.
"Freeloader?"
"What the hell! You teach me something real. What do you know? I want to be able to protect myself."
Although she fully recognizes Gu Peihuai's skills, the most important thing in the last days is to have your own strength. There is nothing you can rely on for life.
The most trustworthy person is yourself, and establishing a certain cooperative relationship is of course very beneficial to the individual.
The best cooperative relationship must be profit.
"That's it? I also said I would be your free bodyguard. I'm very expensive." Gu Peihuai's proud expression made Qian Yan want to slap him.
"No, I can't afford to support you. You should think about what you can teach me."
"You are guaranteed to be satisfied."
"Okay, but I have to make it clear. I can cook your meals. This counts as my class tuition, but you still have to pay for the food and food you eat. I won't take advantage of you. You pay as much as you eat.
That’s it.”
If so, you must make it clear in advance, otherwise once conflicts arise, the cooperative relationship will soon be disintegrated.
"No problem, then when it's dinner time, I'll go to your house."
"But I also want to tell you in advance, if you really want me to train you, you have to listen to me in this regard, otherwise I can't guarantee that you will learn anything." Gu Peihuai said seriously.
"You don't have to worry about this. I don't have to pay my tuition in vain."
Gu Peihuai looked at the ceiling and nodded thoughtfully.
Qian Yan raised her hand and shook the bucket in her hand.
Gu Peihuai turned sideways and got out of the way.
It was around two o'clock in the afternoon. It was slightly warmer outside than in the morning, and there were quite a few people digging out the snow. Most of the men came out to dig out the snow, and one-third of the women came out.
People had already dug a hole in the snow in front of the building. Qian Yan carried a bucket and went down to the sixth floor. The window on the sixth floor had been smashed open. It was easy for her to get out through the window on the sixth floor.<
/p>
When she went downstairs, Qianyan didn't see the miserable lunatic from the seventh floor family coming out to steal the bucket again.
Qian Yan found a corner with few people and started digging hard.
There is actually quite a lot of water in the house. Just washing dishes and taking a shower requires a lot of water. Not only is the water cut off right now, but the toilet and sewage pipes in the house are also being scrapped. The pipes have all been frozen. It is obvious that they will not be used again.
It's unlikely...
Although you can take a bath in the space and there is a water source, Qian Yan has never understood the mechanism of the space. If the water in the space suddenly disappears one day, who will she cry to? Anyway, it is always right to stock up on more water.
.
People were coming and going in front of the building, and the temperature outside was extremely low. Everyone wanted to quickly dig out some snow at the place closest to the building door and then go back, causing a large dent in the ground in front of the building door.
Lingui City is like spring all year round, and people don't have many winter clothes in their homes, so they can't withstand the extremely low temperature outside.
Most families with a large number of people will have at least two people here, so that they can take turns and not get too seriously frozen, so most people work in groups of two or three, and only a few people come out to dig in the snow alone like Qian Yan.
But the group in the middle is extremely eye-catching because there are many men and women.
And most of them are acquaintances. Of course, Qin Wen and her group also have a few strangers, but Qian Yan, who is standing in the middle and directing a few people to work, looks familiar, but he can't think of it for a while.
Who is it?
Qin Wen is wearing a thick brown mink coat that stands out in the crowd. Although it is not as warm as Qian Yan's, such quality is obviously a high-quality material in the apocalypse.
Qian Yan remembered that a few days ago, Qin Wen was covered in layers of fashions, looking ridiculous and not keeping warm at all. At least in this weather, it was almost impossible for her to stand here safely. p>
But Qin Wen's situation now is completely different from the situation a few days ago...
Thinking of the corpse she met in the morning, it seemed that Xu Yonghe had been stabbed in the leg by her, which had completely lost its value to Qin Wen. As for how he died, and whose lap Qin Wen hugged again, Qian was unhappy.
Unexpected and not interested at all.
After all, this is Qin Wen’s lifelong secret.
Please men.
She doesn't question Qin Wen's ability in this area at all.
After all, she had already seen it in her previous life.
I quickly filled two buckets of snow with Qian Yan and sent them back. She lives on the 24th floor, and it is a bit difficult to climb the stairs.
This time she simply brought four buckets down, wanting to bring more back. After all, it was not easy to climb the stairs once.

I met Lin Yan and Lin's father downstairs.
Lin Yan stood in the building waiting to receive the snow dug out by Father Lin.
"Xiaoyan, why did you come down?"
"Naan, you're here to dig out the snow too. I'm worried about Dad, so I'll just come down and have a look."
"Well, there is no water at home. Come down and dig some. Can your legs work?" Qian Yan asked with some worry.
After all, although her fairy water was comparable to a miracle, Lin Yan used it sparingly.
"It's strange to say that my father said it was a medical miracle. I was lucky to have saved my life, but guess what?"
Lin Yan paused and lowered his voice and said, "The wound on my leg has actually scabbed over."
Qian Yan smiled guiltily and said, "It's good, it's good, it's good."
I still secretly sighed in my heart, it is indeed her fairy water, the effect is really powerful!
"Then take it easy and don't move your muscles again."
"I know, have you forgotten what my family does?" Lin Yan smiled at Qian Yan and gently nudged Qian Yan with his elbow.
"Then I won't tell you anymore. Just wait here while I go down to dig some snow."
"Yeah" Lin Yan nodded towards Qian Yan.
When Qian Yan started digging out the snow, there was quite a commotion at the window on the sixth floor, and her way back was blocked by Qin Wen's group.
Residents who were about to return protested dissatisfied below.
"Listen up, guys, these windows on the 16th floor were opened by my brothers. We are all civilized people, and civilized people have to have civilized methods. Is it okay for you guys to collect some tolls?" The speaker was a thin and small man. He looked about twenty-six or seventy-year-old, but he looked shrewd and spoke eloquently.
Qian Yan suddenly remembered that this person seemed to be the property manager in charge of their building. When distributing supplies that day, Qin Wen coquettishly walked towards him and walked out the back door, but was blocked by an aunt in the end.
It seems that he got involved with this property manager.
"Why should we pay tolls? We are all the owners of this community and we all pay for the public fees. Why should we pay them as you say?"
A man stood up and reasoned with the man.
Qin Wen's group of people occupied an advantageous geographical location. A group of people looked down at the people below, and the thin man smiled kindly.
"I am trying to reason with you now. If you listen to what I say, everyone will be in peace. If you don't listen to my reason, then I will have my own way!"
"Listen up, if you dig a bucket of snow alone, you have to pay the toll of a bucket of snow. Otherwise, just cool down outside for a while. I'm not in a hurry."
The man raised his voice, and after speaking, someone put a chair behind him. The man sat on the chair arrogantly with his legs crossed, looking at the people downstairs with disdain.
"I recognize this man, he is the property manager of our property!"
"Why do you charge the property owner for no reason?"
"That is, have you paid to live there? With your salary, can you afford this square meter without eating or drinking for a year?"
"Go away, I want to go in!"
The crowd started shouting, and they were very dissatisfied with Qin Wen's group, but most of their resentment was directed at that man.
The man seemed to have been stabbed in a sore spot. The fake smile on his face was no longer there, replaced by an extremely cruel look.
"Aren't you just a small security guard? I don't believe you can turn things upside down today!" A burly man about 1.8 meters tall shouted dissatisfied.
After saying that, the man will climb through the window.
"Ah!" The man fell back to the ground heavily, his miserable voice echoed in the empty ground, and his body curled up and twitched on the ground.
"What's going on?"
"How can you hit someone?"
"That's right, young man, you are not authentic, we are all owners?"
"What's wrong with him?"
"No, I just got kicked"
Others may not have seen it clearly, or they may not know what it is when they see it, but Qian Yan can clearly see that they have electric batons in their hands.
Even if the people here are not wealthy, most of them live in the upper class. How could anyone pay attention to this kind of thing? But Qian Yan has been dealing with this kind of thing in her past life, and she also knows how painful that man's blow was.
.
They are property owners in the community, so it is not surprising that they have electric batons in their hands. In conditions such as the end of the world, it is very important to have excellent weapons.
"I originally thought that the people here are all gentlemen, and they want to solve the problem in a peaceful way, but there are always some who are ignorant. But I am a gentle man. If you listen to a nice word, I will pay the toll honestly. What?
Nothing happened."
Although there were constant discussions among the crowd, no one dared to take the lead anymore.
Father Lin was just in front of Qian Yan, and he was already shivering from the cold. Not to mention the elderly who couldn't bear it, even the young men had to wait for a while after staying in such weather for a long time.
Lin Yan was very anxious up there, but there was nothing he could do. There were quite a few people gathered upstairs, including relatives downstairs and others waiting to dig out the snow but not daring to come down.
But someone still broke the stalemate. Someone jumped out of the window carrying two half-person-high buckets.
The thin man above was a little surprised when he saw Gu Peihuai jump out of the window, but he didn't say anything. After all, he could only collect tolls when someone went to dig out the snow.
Gradually, some people in the crowd could no longer bear the temperature and finally decided to compromise.
Everyone started queuing up to pay tolls. Many people did not have suitable tools to dig snow, let alone enough tools to keep out the cold. They came down to dig with pots and pans. Their hands were already frozen and stiff, but they had already handed over half of the snow they had worked so hard to dig.
.
There were a few people in the middle who resisted, but without exception, they were stopped by the electric baton in the man's hand.
Qin Wen sat in the arms of the thin man, looking down at the ants below like all living beings.
When he glanced at Qian Yan, he said something in the man's ear, and noticed that the man was looking towards Qian Yan.
Qian Yan ignored it and kept digging in the snow.
Finally, all four buckets of snow were filled by Qian Yan.
There were many people queuing up in front. Lin's father handed over a bucket of snow and had already gone up. Lin Yan looked at Qian Yan with some worry, but was dispersed by Qin Wen's group.
Qian Yan doesn't want to cause trouble, but she probably knows in her heart that she won't be able to go back if she doesn't make some noise today...
"Come here." The thin man raised his fingers towards Qian Yan.
Qian Yan ignored it, chose to ignore it, and still followed the crowd forward.
The man wasn't angry at all. Qian Yan would be at the front of the queue sooner or later anyway, so he wasn't in a hurry.
When they reached the front of the team, the minion next to the man shouted to Qian Yan, "You dug four buckets, hand over two buckets!"
"You don't have to pay." The thin man interrupted the words of the gangster beside him.
Seeing this, the little follower left Qian Yan, jumped over Qian Yan and collected the tolls from the people behind him.
"No need to pay?" Qian Yan placed the four buckets of snow on the ground and put his hands in his pockets.
She knew that there were many of them and they had weapons in their hands, so it would be hopeless if she tried hard, but she had a shotgun in her space, and if there was danger, she would take it out to save her life.
"Baby, you said she is your sister?" The thin man lowered his head by half a head than Qin Wen. It was a bit difficult to stand up and put his arms around Qin Wen's shoulders. In the end, he put his hands on Qin Wen's waist.
"Yes, but she has never liked me. This blizzard was just because she almost made me freeze to death outside." Qin Wen said with tears in her eyes.
The man raised his hand and wiped the tears on Qin Wen's cheek, "Baby, don't cry, your face is broken from crying, I feel bad for you."
Qin Wen stopped her tears and continued.
"If Brother Jia hadn't found me this dress, I would have frozen to death outside."
