Immortal in The Apocalypse

The temperature difference between day and night is huge, so if they don’t want to catch a cold, they have to make a bonfire.

Three months after the end of the world, most animals and plants have mutated. With fire, they can resist some weak mutant animals and plants. While not all mutant animals and plants are afraid of fire, sleeping in the company of fire can make them more at ease.

Needless to say, Ji Yang and Tan Wei also helped Zhu Lin and Xiu Wu collect firewood. Even the little bunny walked back and forth with twigs and dry bushes in its paws. Looking at the hard-working rabbit, Tan Wei couldn’t help but feel that his heart was squished by the cuteness of the rabbit.

After collecting enough firewood, the four of them plus a small rabbit sat around the bonfire. Zhu Lin was hungry again, so she took out one pack of food, and prepared the meal as taught by Xiu Wu.

Tan Wei was hungry, so he looked at Ji Yang and said, "Lao Yang, hurry up."

Ji Yang also felt hungry, and quickly took out the cooking utensils and ingredients from the space, then looked at Xiu Wu and said, "Lao Xiu, we can only rely on you."

Looking helplessly at his two starving friends, Xiu Wu washed his hands with a little bit of water, and then began to prepare the ingredients. With Ji Yang’s space, they were lucky to be able to eat some fresh vegetables. Not long after, there was a sizzling sound from the pan.

While waiting for her meal to be ready, Zhu Lin looked up and saw Xiu Wu who was busy cooking. She didn’t expect him to be able to cook, so she watched with the mentality of stealing his craftsmanship. Since she also needs to eat now, there is nothing wrong with her learning to cook.

Sensing her eyes on him, Xiu Wu raised his head. Watching her earnestly watch him cook with bright eyes, he felt proud and happy for no reason. The corners of his lips curved up slightly, and his movements became more exaggerated, as if he was trying to show his skills and impress her.

Ji Yang and Tan Wei noticed that he was trying to impress Zhu Lin and thought: ’So this is what he looks like when he is trying to impress a woman. Strangely, instead of being impressed, I was terrified. Is he still the Lao Xiu I know?’

Not knowing that his two friends were looking at him like he is an alien, Xiu Wu glanced at Zhu Lin and saw Zhu Lin take out a writing brush and paper. Seeing her bowing her head and writing seriously, the slight smile on his lips disappeared.

Before long, he had divided the food into four portions. He carried a plate of food, walked up to Zhu Lin, put the plate in front of her, and said, "For you."

Without giving her time to say no, he walked back to the bonfire and picked up his portion. Xiu Wu sat opposite Zhu Lin, then eating his dinner silently.

Zhu Lin and Tu Tu looked at the plate of steaming fried rice, and then looked at each other. Putting away the writing brush and the paper, she picked up the plate and asked: [Did he really give us the meals he cooked with his own hands?]

Tu Tu looked at the steaming fried rice, stayed silent for a while, before saying, [It seems so.]

After a moment of silence, Zhu Lin raised her eyes and saw Xiu Wu staring at her. She thought for a while and said, [Let’s not waste his kindness.]

She picked up the spoon, scooped up the fried rice, and ate it. Seeing her wide eyes after taking a bite, Tu Tu asked anxiously: [Master, are you alright?]

Zhu Lin nodded, scooped up a spoonful of fried rice and said, [Taste it. This is tastier than the food we exchanged with the crystal nucleus.]

She lowered the spoon to the rabbit’s mouth, who sniffed the fried rice and then opened its petal-like mouth. Tu Tu’s cheeks were bulging, and its pair of red eyes were wide open as it said, [Wow~ this fried rice is really delicious.]

Hearing the name of the food from Tu Tu’s mouth, Zhu Lin remembered the name of this delicious food while sharing the fried rice with her rabbit. If there is a chance in the future, she should ask him to teach her how to cook this delicious fried rice.

Keeping his eyes on Zhu Lin’s expressions and seeing her and her rabbit happily eating fried rice, Xiu Wu feels that tonight’s dinner is more fragrant and delicious than usual. After eating the fried rice, Zhu Lin was full. Not wanting to waste food, she put the package of military meals back into the ice flower pendant.

After a day of walking, she was a little tired, so she sat cross-legged and meditated with her eyes closed. Although she can’t cultivate now, it is faster for her to restore her energy by circulating her remaining divine energy in her body than sleeping.

The rabbit saw that its master had fallen into a state of meditation, so the rabbit climbed onto Zhu Lin’s lap, found a comfortable position, and then closed its eyes to sleep.

With three humans around tonight, the rabbit doesn’t have to stand on guard the whole night. Getting the rare sleeping time, Tu Tu was very happy. After a while, the rabbit’s snoring echoed in the silent surrounding.

Sitting not far from them, the three men dumbfoundedly looked at the young woman who was sleeping in a sitting position, and a snoring rabbit in her lap.

Tan Wei pointed at Tu Tu, looked at Ji Yang and asked in disbelief: "Does the rabbit really snore out loud? Do rabbits snore?"

Ji Yang was silent for a moment, then he said, ".... I don’t know. This is also the first time I saw a rabbit snore while sleeping."

Xiu Wu is also speechless. "....."
