I can downgrade maintenance

Chapter 220
Zhou Ning does not like the number '4'.

It's not because it sounds like "death", or it means something is wrong, or I just don't like it.

I don’t think it’s up or down, there’s nothing wrong with three, five, six, seven, eight or nine, there’s nothing wrong with two and ten, there’s nothing to say about one, and it’s used too often.

However, the fourth day of his embarrassment in the wasteland world turned out to be his lucky day.

First, I ran into a wild Teddy baring his teeth at him.

He really doesn't like this kind of pet dog.

Commonly known as 'Tai Ri Tian', it is very embarrassing, and thieves like dogs to bark at people's power, and it has almost no advantages except that it does not shed hair.

In his previous life, he had two Thai Ritians downstairs, and he would go for a walk with the dog early in the morning every day. When walking the dog, the dog would inevitably bark. They were old residents and couldn’t recognize them. They barked like strangers, and others Can't speak, talking and yelling even more fiercely.

It's okay in winter, the windows are closed for sound insulation.It was even worse in summer, when it dawned early, the voice went up again.

After being woken up by the two dogs roaring like a competition, it was only past five o'clock, and it was difficult to fall asleep again.

This is a nuisance to the people, but there is nothing you can do about it.

You can't be noisy, you will only get angry.People don't care about going through legal procedures, let you mediate and resolve it yourself.

In the end, I only hated myself for being incompetent and unable to move away.

Therefore, Zhou Ning himself has a psychological shadow and resentment towards this kind of dog.

I met him today and barked at him again.

The old and new hatred, coupled with the evil fire in the belly of the downcast, immediately aroused the emotions, and the fire ax in his hand was thrown out by a strange coincidence.

Originally, this was a venting blow, his hands trembled with emotion, and he didn't expect to hit it, but he hit it, and he was dying in one hit.

The cruel side of Zhou Ning's human nature was exposed. He went up to pick up the ax and repaired the knife, and chopped off the dog's head with one axe. He didn't feel cruel at all, but felt relieved.

"Zao Nima wanted to do this! Peeling skin and cramping, chewing bones and chewing meat, you bastard!"

Then the system congratulated him, his spiritual realm had improved, reaching a height that matched System 4.0.

Zhou Ning felt that he was being punished?
"It turns out that my realm is short of killing Teddy to vent my anger?"

Of course, this is joking.

Analyzing the real reason, he guessed that what he has been missing all along is 'distraction'.

It seems that he is not surprised by favor or humiliation, but in fact it is because he has never lost his mind.

It's still the same sentence: if you don't pay, everything around you has no weight to you.

He often says that he is a salted fish, but in fact there is a fire deep in his heart.

He often says that he is useless, but in fact, he thinks that others are just like that, or even inferior to him.

He talks about games and lying down, but he puts himself in a situation that is about equal to that of the 'Mother'.

He doesn't have multiple personalities, but he wears a mask all the time, even if he lives alone, he never takes it off.

False to false, he manages his life as a game, not because the system gamifies the world, so that he can only live his life as a game.

But ruthless Teddy, killing Teddy, is the expression of true feelings and insightful thoughts, which makes him feel more satisfied than killing some old monsters, big devils, and saving all living beings, real satisfaction.

I have endured for too long, acted for too long, played for too long, and pretended for too long.

I finally found a real outlet, and it was a time of love and sex.

Thinking about this, Zhou Ning didn't know whether he should cry or laugh.

It took him so long to break through layers of camouflage and hard shells, revealing one or two of his true nature.May I ask what you lived before? NPC?Or is it just a joke?
Instead of screaming up to the sky because of this, he interacted with the system to see if there would be any benefits after his mood re-matched with the system version.

Really!

Pretentious statement: Fate closed the door for him, but the system opened a window for him.

Walk the path of a psion or warrior and open the window to the extraordinary.

Hurtful statement: You should convert to Buddhism and become a monk.

Isn't the monk just not pretending to be external, digging the heart to seek strength?

He used to joke about monks in a fancy way, the way of heaven is reincarnation, whoever is spared by the heavens, now it is his turn to be a monk by himself.

Come on, this face is not acceptable at all.

As long as there is a way to go, go all out!
Mainly because it is too painful for the blind.

And it's all blind, what's wrong with being a blind monk Li Qing by the way?
Or Illidan?

Forget it, he's used to being chic by himself, and he doesn't have the complex of licking dogs.

The most intuitive benefit brought by the improvement of the spiritual realm is the accelerated fusion of soul and body.

The feeling is still obvious.

The sense of smell returned.

The feeling of stuffy head like a hangover has also been greatly relieved.

The other is the feeling of the skin and flesh. Before I touched the flesh with my hands, it was a bit like a layer of cloth next to the body, but now it is very real.

And his myopia seemed to be getting better, which made him so happy that he even hummed a song.

When did he recall the last time he hummed a song?Hmm...it seems to be counted in years.

Next, it is good luck again and again.

As soon as the spear was sharpened, before it had time to carbonize, there was a humanoid monster, attracted by Teddy's bloody smell.

Zhou Ning hung the headless body of Teddy on a branch to drain the blood, otherwise the blood would coagulate in the flesh and the taste would be much worse.

Plus, he does have a mind for attracting predators.

After his state of mind improved, his courage also increased a lot, and he already had the intention of hunting big things.

He thought to himself: "Is it true that I only know how to play games, lick the system, and call Dad for help if there is a situation?

Even if you are a pig, you have learned something after a few years of exposure.

Isn't it just a fight?Come on! "

He thought it would be a bear or a wolf, or even a zoo lion.

Then came a monster.

Throw the spear, followed by the axe!

At this moment, Zhou Ning felt that he was Lincoln, the one who became the president of Ugly Country by killing vampires.

It sounds a bit funny, but the novel feels more readable than the movie, especially with the illustrations that are obviously P, which makes people have the urge to go to that world and that era.

Of course, the premise is not to be reincarnated or become a black person.

The spear was well placed, and although the ax only hit the arm, the guy was so frightened that he turned and ran away.

Zhou Ning's shoes are not strong enough, and he can't run like this.

But the creature died soon after the spear wounded its lungs, coughing up blood and frothing, the injury was exacerbated by strenuous exercise, and double blood loss from the arm, so he died.

Zhou Ning asked, is this monster deformed from a human, or does it look like a human?

The system says it's the latter.

Then it's ok, eat it.

The system also said that the blood of this monster is especially precious.

It's also simple, make blood sausage.

This is the Northeast way of eating.

The city where he grew up in his previous life was a fusion type.

There are many people in the Central Plains and there are few lands. In a disaster year, if you can't survive, you have to flee.

So there is a way to pass through the Guandong and take the west exit.

His hometown belongs to the latter, the Hetao area, formed by the alluvial deposits of the ancient Yellow River, is also a famous grain-producing area.

So there are many Shanxi people in his hometown, who brought sliced ​​noodles and rotten pickled vegetables (a kind of pickled vegetables, no miscellaneous things such as prickly ash, ginger, pepper, etc., just round vegetables, and at most some radishes to see how delicious they are).

Later, a smelting and steel industry base was built, and people were transferred from the northeast of the mature heavy industry area, and brought pickled (sour) vegetables, pork and potato stewed vermicelli, etc. eating methods.

Blood sausage is also one of them. It smells bloody, but it depends on the craftsmanship and getting used to it.

Just like stinky tofu, no matter how hype you talk about, some people just refuse to eat it.

Zhou Ning had learned cooking skills for several years in his previous life. At that time, he used to pack rice. Good taste was secondary. Habits and techniques were later eliminated by the market.

Of course, Zhou Ning himself would say that bad money eliminated good money, and he was completely unemployed by stupid diners who didn't know how to use ingredients and condiments, and only wanted to be cheap. They deserved to eat gutter oil and Sudan red...

Anyway, to deal with this kind of thing, many times it really depends on which angle you stand at.

I have done many types of work, and those with a relatively high proportion of craftsmanship are cooking. When the cook goes out to eat, it is natural to pick and choose. In the end, I try to eat what I cook.

With frequent tinkering, the craftsmanship is not lost much.

In fact, it is not lost, after all, there is no corresponding platform, and many big dishes are not cooked.

Now it happened to be not far from the river, and I happened to bring a container, and there was no shortage of plant ash, so I started to deal with it on the spot.

That scene was unbearable for many Ye Gonghaolong-style cloud chefs, not only bloody, but also stench.

To put it more disgustingly, you have to help the monster get the shit out of its intestines.

The vomit in the stomach bag is also neither good-looking nor smelly.

Zhou Ning himself is glad that he has only been an uncle for a few years by relying on cheating. It will take a few more years, and he is probably too delicate to do dirty work.

It's okay now.

He doesn't know how to make leather, but he has a system, so he can do it.

For example, intestinal oil, lymphatic and other parts are not eaten, but there is no need to discard them and refine them.

The refined oil can be used whether it is making oil wax or tanning leather.

There are also those fascia, the thread in the waist and so on, chopped up, this is the bait.Raise fish in the river.This is about the simplest understanding of sustainable development.

Tanning and leather processing, as well as processing meat, took more time than Zhou Ning expected.

It took about a week to get all these things done.

Of course, sharpening a knife is not the same as chopping wood by mistake. There is a system, and his work is very effective.

Just like bacon, by the way, the pottery is finished.

Find a clay called red gooey.

Dig it out, dry it in the sun, break it up, take it out in the sun, mix it with mud, beat the embryo, dry it in the shade, and then start firing. The kiln is a stone house.

This is considered rather particular. When he was a child, he saw people going around, laying down adobe bricks, setting them up and firing them. There was no kiln at all, just like a big bonfire, and it was also a day-to-day firing.

Of course, that is firing bricks, and this is firing pottery, which requires more temperature.

Due to the unqualified craftsmanship, there were more than 20 pieces in size, but only four or five pieces were intact in the end, and more than 75% of them were lost.

Zhou Ning is quite satisfied, and he can eat casserole noodles from now on.I can also eat stone grilled.There are also urns for storing water, and urns for pickling vegetables.

There is no cylinder, the technology is not up to standard, and there are no tools, so the blanks cannot be punched out.

The pots and pans are ugly and bulky, but necessary.

He found a pair of those big plastic buckets, which are good for storing some water, but pickles are not good, they will rot.

I also know about table salt. On a certain farm, half a bag of coarse salt may be used to feed livestock.

It's okay to eat it directly, but it's okay to use it to pickle vegetables.

Wild vegetables, as well as small cabbage found in the abandoned farmland, boiled in salty salt water and then let it cool. The vegetables are piled up in the urn, and the piles are poured once. Finally, find a heavy enough vegetable pressing stone to press, OK, winter vegetables There is.

He actually wandered through the wasteland and found potatoes, carrots, cucumbers, tomatoes.

He himself does not distinguish between grains, but he has systematic guidance, which is equivalent to a plant expert.

He has even completed saving and transplanting the seeds. If he plans to live here next year, then the [-]-square-meter yard will be enough for him to eat seasonally.

The fertilizer is naturally farmyard manure, so now you can defecate at a fixed point.

He also collected cranberries and made peels.

The biggest natural enemy of food preservation is water, and the fruit peel is designed to solve this problem.

By boiling the jam, the jam is boiled out, and the part of the jam sticking to the inner edge of the pot can be torn off like a rubber when it is hardened to a certain extent. This is the peel.

Not to mention how delicious it is, soaking in water is also very good.

When it comes to soaking in water, tea containing tannic acid can be regarded as a simple health drink and should be drunk frequently.

If it doesn't work, making pine needle tea is better than white water.

And the tea came at the right time, just in time to relieve the tiredness.

Zhou Ning's food these days is a bit greasy, with flesh and bone marrow, that's the main thing.

He doesn't really want to, but his body needs it.

Survival in the wilderness, the most expensive thing is fat, not lean meat.

The reason is naturally the calorie consumption and the need to resist the cold. He has to gain weight for the coming winter. 5% body fat is too low.

After traveling through No. 15, food storage has achieved a small amount, and the body has also adjusted and improved significantly.

Although there is still a handsome face that can be compared with Dachao, but Zhou Ning still dislikes this body, with thick hair and heavy body odor.

Moreover, he found that this body of tendon meat is worse than looking at it. He suspects that this body of tendon meat was once enhanced by steroids and the like.I want to deduce it again, but unfortunately there are no conditions.

The main condition is electricity.

With plenty of energy, everything else is easy to say.

If not now, then continue to slash and burn.

There is not everything in the abandoned town.

For example, shoes are always uncertain.

Of course not without shoes.

It's just that there are no shoes that fit him.

Angrily, he complained: Could it be that Lao Tzu happened to end up in Lilliputian?
Indeed, there is a Lilliputian trend. There are no shoes, but there are plenty of condiments.

Not only did he find unusual flavoring spices like nutmeg and cinnamon, he even found pink mineral salt similar to Himalayan salt.

"At least it's good to eat!" He could only comfort himself in this way.

Then he started making shoes himself.

Mainly the soles.

The idea comes from the handicraft workshop of Sange’s house, where recycled waste plastics are processed at high temperature to make slippers.

The specific practice comes from the knowledge provided by the system.

The hand-made mold is filled with materials heated at high temperature until it becomes viscous, and then molded.

Let it cool down and then cut it by hand.

It must be said that if the cost of mass production is not considered, it is only for personal use.The production of many creations was simpler than Zhou Ning expected.

The quality of shoe soles like the one he made doesn't have to be bad.

Of course, beef tendon bottoms are also divided into grades, which are compared with low-grade ones.

The uppers are made of leather, and the suede shoes made have nothing wrong with them except for being ugly. They even have a hard shell toe and can protect the ankles, with a high waist like military boots.

After the pair of shoes were finished and put on his feet, Zhou Ning groaned for three hours.

It was funny even to himself thinking about it.

Have you ever thought that you would be so excited because of a pair of shoes?
Because of enough sacrifices, this pair of shoes has weight in his heart.

In addition, he also harvested high-stretch gym pants.

These pants are paired with Hulk's big pants. The beauty is only comparable to some players in the NBA, and most people don't wear them like this.

He also got a riding helmet, which is also very good to use as a hard hat.

In addition, he found some gold and silver jewelry, which he also put away.

Gold in troubled times, in some places, this thing should be able to be used as a common currency.

Because of the pearls and jades that hunted the big ones in front, the prey acquisition in the next few days made him a little bit unmotivated.

There were not many big fish left. He could only say that the amount of fish in this section of the river was less than he thought.

Happily, another piece of potato was found.

This thing can be used as a non-staple food and a staple food. The key is that Zhou Ning still likes to eat it.Potato chips with oily meat, salt and pepper fries, shredded potatoes in cold salad, beef stew with potatoes... all kinds of eating methods are fine.

Potatoes are also relatively easy to store.

He remembered that when he was a child in his previous life, every household had stored two non-staple foods in late autumn, namely potatoes and Chinese cabbage. At that time, they were mostly square meters, and even buildings had warehouses and vegetable cellars. I will charge you a share.

The simple days continued like this.

Zhou Ning adapts very well, and there is no recollection of bitterness and sweetness.

Even the memory of the all-powerful cultivation career is a little blurred.

It seems that it is Nankeyimeng, and the present is the reality.

Despite the existence of the system, it is like a daily work alarm clock, reminding him.

But to be honest, he is not very interested in returning.

He felt that the previous awkwardness and temper tantrums were actually the result of wanting to live like this now.

It's just because of hypocrisy, worrying about gains and losses, and not being cruel enough to myself, so I became half-baked.Otherwise, even if it is dark and extraordinary, there must still be a simple way of life.

Just like what the farmers said, don’t you plant the land after listening to the crickets?
Maybe autumn happens to be the rainy season in this area. Zhou Ning feels that the amount of rainfall is really good.There will be a little bit every two days, and there will be a small one if there is no big one.

Under such a background, the desertification of the land is still so serious, and the taste of waste soil comes out from Zhou Ningpin.He thinks this is equivalent to the Great Lakes region at the junction of Earth Ugly Country and Maple Leaf Country, Michigan. If this kind of place is like this, what the hell are Utah and Texas like?Is there a North American version of the mummy saga?
Zhou Ning really guessed it right.

It's just that this mummy is not the essence of local culture, but a foreign monk who can chant sutras.

The high-end thugs sent by the evil demon are running rampant and pretending to beep.

Although they have been greatly suppressed, even though they bring their own dry food, these golden arhats can still arouse wind and sand, create skeleton puppets, and the scorched earth road created by their death march has become famous in a short time.

But precisely because of this high-profile, local power groups launched an attack on him.

After sending a few waves of heads, the local forces quickly adjusted their strategy and began to play some annoying tricks.

Such as ultra-high-altitude bombs, cluster bombs, ultra-high-speed missiles...

These are a bit far away from Zhou Ning. In his broken place, his curiosity is not strong enough, or if he doesn't make any big noises, he can still survive in a short time.
