Chapter 23 Reopening the Blind Box
Chapter 23 Open the blind box again
It's over, it's over, it's over now, this time the dumplings are really boiling in the teapot, and there's nothing left to pour out.
After Wuyue learned that she could not get out the food, she felt anxious. It would be too frustrating to starve to death while guarding the food.
Now there is a bag of pastrami jerky and half a bag of wheat flour on my wheelbarrow, which is only enough to feed a family of four for two or three days.
Do we really have to eat locusts when we run out of food?
Haoyue took another look at the densely packed iron-blue locusts lying on the ground. Looking at the locusts' bulging bellies, she couldn't help but think of the iron worms that looked like wool balls in the belly of a praying mantis.
The goosebumps on Haoyue's body instantly fell all over the floor. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, even if we starve to death! We can't eat this thing!
Shen Yinxing saw the changing expression on his daughter's face and knew something was wrong, so he hurriedly hugged Long Yue aside: "Yue'er, what's wrong?"
"Auntie, it's over. I can't take out the food from the space." Haoyue whispered to Shen Yinxing: "I have to walk another 480,000 steps to upgrade the system and unlock the withdrawal limit."
Shen Yinxing was stunned for a moment when he heard the bad news, and then replied: "Yue'er, your space powers are really troublesome."
After saying that, Shen Yinxing touched Long Yue's little head again: "But don't worry Yue'er, my mother-in-law is here and she won't let you go hungry.
"Auntie, I don't want to eat locusts," Haoyue said weakly.
"If you don't want to eat, how can I let you eat bugs?" Shen Yinxing held Longyue in his arms and comforted her for a while, then took Xu Ajiu and Xu Jingyang to hold the first family meeting.
A family of four sat on the floor in a circle and discussed how to solve the food problem next.
Shen Yinxing: "According to the current schedule, it will take at least a week for Yue'er to get food from space, and our current food is only enough for three days. Just now, all the food rations of each family were eaten by locust swarms. Quite a few, the rest of the Xu family is also in short supply of food, and I'm afraid no one can help."
"So next we need to look for food in the wild, but this area has just been hit by a locust plague. Now there is probably no grass growing in the wild. The only way to get food now is to hunt."
"Auntie, I think there may be no wild animals left now, because the food chain in this area is completely broken. Herbivores are almost extinct without food rations, and there are probably no carnivores..." Haoyue rubbed He rubbed his eyebrows and said.
Xu Jingyang rolled up his sleeves: "I think what the emperor said is right. There should be very few wild animals now. Even if we go hunting, it will be a waste of effort and it will also delay the trip."
Xu Ajiu scratched his head as he listened, and then pointed at a few big-bellied locusts jumping on the ground.
"No, no, no, I won't eat this stuff even if I starve to death." Hazyue shook her head like a rattle.
The family gathered together to discuss food issues, and ended up feeling lonely. It seemed that the possibility of finding food under such circumstances was slim.
"Uncle Fifth, what are you guys mumbling around here? We are about to set off. Have you packed enough locusts in your house? If not, I will give you two bags. I have caught a lot of these things, and I may have to live off them in the future. ", Brother Erya patted the bag full of locusts.
"No, thank you Brother Erya. Our family has decided not to eat locusts. Auntie said that if you eat the locusts, you might be poisoned." Brother Erya's words made Haoyue shake her head.
"It's time to be careful. Be careful not to eat the locusts later." Brother Erya shook his head after saying that, then he put a sack of locusts on his shoulders and chased the donkey cart.
"Forget it, we can't think of any other way now. Let's hit the road first. I hope we can meet some bandits later, so we can have something to eat." Shen Yinxing shook the locust stuck on the tip of the knife. , and then sheathed the knife.
Shen Yinxing's words instantly awakened Long Yue. Yes, if you encounter bandits again, you can rob them in reverse. A Niang's strength is so high, even if she is the boss of a copycat village, it is not a problem.
So on the next road, Haoyue looked forward to the stars and the moon all day long, hoping that a thief would appear. Whenever there was any sign of trouble, she would get up to see if someone was blocking the road and robbing her. She almost stood in the car and shouted, "We are going to succeed." There are piles of jewelry, please come and rob us.
However, the rest of the road was calm, and there were no blind bandits blocking the way.
Haoyue looked at the food bag that had bottomed out and felt worried. She had hardly had a good meal in the past two days.
The rest of the Xu family had already begun to eat the locusts. They heated the stone slab and roasted the locusts on the stone slab until they became sizzling and oily. Not to mention, they smelled really fragrant.
But soon, many people had adverse reactions after eating locusts, ranging from mild cases of foaming at the mouth to diarrhea to severe cases of confusion and bedridden effects.
After this experience, everyone finally believed what Haoyue said before that locusts were poisonous and inedible, and then they all abandoned the locust rations.
People, sometimes you just can’t shed tears without seeing the coffin, and it’s useless to try to dissuade someone. You have to suffer the consequences yourself in order to have a longer memory.
At this time, Ogyue was lying on the wheelbarrow, drooling over the food in her space.
Alas, it is really torture to be able to only watch but not eat.
Haoyue walked around the space, then checked the income of the fresh food supermarket in the past few days, and unexpectedly found that the supermarket made hundreds of dollars from selling pastrami jerky.
After smoking the beef, Ogyue put more than half of the beef jerky into the space. Because the quantity was large, Ogyue put some of it on the shelves for sale. Unexpectedly, it sold for a lot of money in the past few days.
It seems that modern people still like to eat this original bacon jerky.
Haoyue took the money and once again stood in front of the system blind box mall. She was thinking about whether the things in the blind box could be taken out.
The system seemed to know what Haoyue was thinking at this time, and immediately responded:
[Host, things opened from the blind box are not subject to the withdrawal limit]
Wuyue was overjoyed when she heard that the blind box that was opened was unrestricted. Happiness came so suddenly!
After being excited for a while, Haoyue looked at the shining golden blind boxes in the system mall and made a wish: "I want to eat, eat, eat, please give me food, thank you!"
After making her wish, Longyue tapped the blind box in the middle with her little hand: "That's it!"
Then in a burst of dazzling golden light, the blind box was opened.
[Ding, congratulations to the host for receiving Chinese Teeth Whitening Toothpaste
????
Haoyue looked at the complete set of toiletries in her hand, and her face turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
What a broken blind box, I’m really grateful! (ノ=Д=)ノ┻━┻
Chapter completed!
