Su Nian looked at the gun handed to her and shook her head, "I won't use it. You should use it yourself."
"I can teach you."
"Then wait until we get back, find an opportunity outside the base, and you can teach me."
Now wasn't the time to learn.
Su Nian was very clear about what to do and when.
Even though the gun in front of her was really cool, she was indeed tempted, but now wasn't the time for her to use it.
Jing Mo didn't try to persuade her further. Instead, he nodded, "Okay, I'll teach you when we get back."
Without saying much more, the two climbed onto the roof of the car together.
There was a thick layer of snow on the roof, and Jing Mo stretched out his long arms, sweeping the snow away with his clothes.
Just as the two settled on the roof of the car, they heard movement coming from the direction of the woods.
The smell of cooking rabbit meat grew stronger and stronger. Not to mention the starving wild animals, given enough time, even humans could attract a bunch.
Su Nian and Jing Mo looked towards the woods and saw black figures running out of the depths of the forest.
They were all huge in size and very fast.
"Shoot."
As Jing Mo said these two words, his index finger had already pulled the trigger.
Su Nian didn't hesitate either. She aimed and fired, all in one breath.
After practicing shooting last time, Su Nian hadn't touched a gun for several days. At the beginning, she was a little unfamiliar, missing several shots in a row.
But Su Nian's mood didn't change because of this.
By the third shot, Su Nian hit a wolf in the chest.
The power of this shot was extraordinary. The wolf fell to the ground immediately and couldn't get up again.
Jing Mo's marksmanship was more accurate than Su Nian's.
Every shot hit the mark; there were no misses.
Even though Su Nian had seen Jing Mo shoot before, witnessing this scene still left her speechless.
Jing Mo, who usually smiled and talked a lot, had a cold and decisive aura at this moment.
At this moment, Jing Mo was like the gun in his hand, dazzling and unstoppable.
Su Nian only glanced at Jing Mo from the corner of her eye for a while before focusing on the woods again.
For Su Nian, this was not just about completing a mission, but also a good opportunity to practice shooting.
After all, in normal times, there weren't so many large and fast-moving prey for her to shoot at however she wanted.
After they worked together to kill more than a dozen wolves and several wild boars, there were no more shadows rushing down the mountain.
Su Nian took out the binoculars and looked towards the deep mountains, where she could still see many wolves and wild boars.
Whether it was their vision or a sense of something, Su Nian felt like her gaze met theirs.
Although it was broad daylight, the eyes of these animals seemed to emit a green light, sending shivers down her spine.
Before she could look more closely, they all turned around and ran towards the deep mountains.
It wasn't until she couldn't see them anymore that Su Nian put down the binoculars.
At the same time, Jing Mo also straightened up, raising an eyebrow at Su Nian, "We've had a good harvest!"
Although she didn't know how many contribution points a wolf was worth, a single wild boar could exchange for five or six hundred contribution points, so these few wild boars were worth two or three thousand contribution points.
In terms of contribution points, Su Nian considered herself poor.
Now suddenly becoming rich, of course, made her happy, and her eyes curved with a smile.
"Let's go, let's collect the rabbit meat first."
Saying this, Jing Mo supported the luggage rack on the roof with one hand, leaped off the car effortlessly, and approached Su Nian, extending his hand, "Let me help you down."
"No need."
Su Nian refused and, just like Jing Mo, supported herself with one hand on the luggage rack and leaped down to the ground.
Su Nian's years of martial arts training weren't in vain. During the ten years of struggling to survive in the apocalypse, she didn't live in vain either.
Not to mention this height, even if she stood on the second floor, Su Nian dared to jump down directly.
Seeing this, Jing Mo just smiled and didn't say much.
The two walked towards the woods, and soon arrived at the gas stove.
Water had been added to the pot, and the rabbit meat had turned white with some foam floating on top.
Jing Mo showed no signs of disgust, "Take it out, we'll stir-fry it with some seasoning later, it'll be delicious for sure."
"Do you have seasoning with you?" Su Nian asked with a smile.
"Of course!" Jing Mo replied matter-of-factly, "Rabbit meat is so rare, we can't waste any of it!"
Jing Mo's words made sense, and Su Nian nodded along.
"Since there aren't many people here, why not stir-fry it here?" Su Nian suggested.
At this suggestion, Jing Mo hesitated slightly before looking at Su Nian, "But I don't know how to cook."
"I do."
"Really? Then I'll leave it to you."
With these words, Jing Mo turned around and quickly ran towards the car.
He left quickly and returned quickly.
Running back to Su Nian, Jing Mo opened the plastic bag in his hand, "I brought all the seasoning I had, see which ones you need."
Su Nian leaned over to take a look and saw a variety of bottles and bags inside.
From oil, salt, and sauce to star anise and dried chili, everything was there.
The preparation was truly comprehensive!
"These are enough," Su Nian nodded.
"Then I'll take out the rabbit meat first, I'll get the lunch boxes."
With full energy, Jing Mo didn't take long to make a round trip, bringing back both of their empty lunch boxes.
After scooping out the rabbit meat and putting it in the lunch boxes, the water in the pot was poured out, and the pot was scrubbed clean with snow.
Jing Mo poured some hot water, cleaned the pot thoroughly, then put it back on the gas stove, and considerately lit the fire.
Watching his series of actions, Su Nian was impressed but also found it somewhat amusing.
Jing Mo really loved meat!
The iron pot needed to be heated until it smoked before adding oil.
While waiting, Su Nian curiously asked, "Since you don't know how to cook, why did you buy so many seasonings?"
The base's supermarket sold seasonings, but they weren't cheap.
"I not only bought seasonings but also found some recipes. I planned to study them myself, but I haven't had any results yet.
I don't mind regular food, but for something like rabbit meat, it would be a waste for me to study it."
Although it's important to be self-aware, Jing Mo's level of self-awareness left Su Nian unsure of what to say.
Just then, the pot was hot enough, and Su Nian twisted open the bottle of oil and poured it in.
Once the oil was hot, she added various spices and dried chili to stir-fry.
It was a pity there were no scallions, ginger, or garlic, but being away from home, they couldn't be too picky.
As she stirred, the fragrance quickly spread.
Su Nian picked up the lunch box and poured all the rabbit meat in, stirring it for a while before adding various seasonings.
Jing Mo took a deep breath and gave Su Nian a thumbs up, "With your skills, if you opened a restaurant in the base, it would definitely be a hit!"
