Chapter 58: Midnight

After the body mutated, Xiang Kun no longer needed to eat, or could not eat.

Only water and blood are the only ones who can stomach down without vomiting. Naturally, there is no need for cooking or cooking.

What's more, even before the mutation, he hardly cooked his own food. At most, he made instant noodles in the rental house.

However, the giant owl searched the garbage dump and found the memory picture of the rabbit carcass he had packed, but he realized that his household garbage was too different from normal people.

What is the household garbage of ordinary people?

All kinds of food waste, used tissues and toilet paper, bottles and cans, various garbage bags, and various other items.

But what about Xiang Kun's garbage?

Except for the rabbit carcasses that are packed in layers, there is very little other garbage, basically only some packaging bags, plastic bags, etc., as well as poop and leftover food from cleaning rabbit cages.

Because he doesn't sweat so much now, he doesn't need to eat, he doesn't eat snacks or drinks, and consumes very little paper towels, so the trash can is often empty.

Of course, the garbage classification method implemented in their city is not very strict. Although they are divided into four-color buckets, many people still use only one garbage bag to dispose of garbage and throw it all into the kitchen bucket, so there will be no Someone pays attention to his trash, but it is always a hidden danger.

And when he bought a rabbit, he would inevitably be seen when he entered the community.

It doesn't matter once or twice, he doesn't buy it every day anyway, but after a long time, someone will definitely notice.

When he buys rabbits, there should always be an external statement.

So after Xiang Kun drank blood this time, the three rabbit corpses were not thrown away, but after a little treatment, they were put in the refrigerator and frozen.

He found several recipes of rabbit meat on the Internet. When he came back today, he went to the supermarket to buy all the ingredients he needed and the kitchen utensils that were missing in the kitchen.

Three rabbits, he is going to use three methods.

Braised rabbit meat, spicy rabbit meat, stewed rabbit meat...

Xiang Kun was too lazy to defrost slowly, so he soaked it in hot water, anyway, he wouldn't really eat it, just used it to practice.

Processing rabbit meat, cutting into pieces, the knife skills were a bit jerky at first, but it quickly became smooth, although it is far behind the chef, but at first glance it looks like it is not like I have never cooked Novice.

After all, he is now not only very strong, but also his ability to control various muscle groups, grasp of strength, and flexibility of fingers and wrists is much stronger than ordinary people.

It's already early morning, but for Xiang Kun, it's time for spirits and his body is in excellent condition.

He took the phone to open a music app, clicked random play, and put it on the side of the condiment table.

The volume is only adjusted by one step. Even if the cooker hood is not turned on, the knife is not touched, or the oil is not in the pot, it is basically difficult for ordinary people to hear a cappella singing, so there is no need to worry about making neighbors.

But for Xiang Kun, as long as he wants, the sound of the music can be heard clearly, not worse than wearing headphones, it is the noise when cooking, and it cannot cover up the details of the music-this is not only The reason that his hearing has been mutated and strengthened is also the result of his training during this period.

Whether it is to accurately capture the sound you want from a bunch of noises, or lock the taste you want from a variety of scents, it is the basic operation of Xiang Kun now, which can be done instinctively.

The random song on the mobile phone is something Xiang Kun has never heard before, but the lyrics and music are quite beautiful.

In the past, when Xiang Kun was doing some repetitive work that did not require thinking, he would plug in headphones while listening to music while working.However, after his body mutated, he opened the music app, basically to test and train his hearing. He hasn't really "listened" to music for a long time.

In the rhythmic singing, Xiang Kun cut the rabbit meat faster and faster.

"Youcannotleavewhenyoureallywannago,

Youknowtheroadbetterthantheshow,

Anddarknessmakesyouglow..."

Cut chili and onion into pieces, put in oil, put pepper, star anise, and dried chili into the pot until fragrant.

"...Hey~hey~hey~hey~it'sabrandnewday, ah~ha~

Hey~hey~hey~hey~it'sabroundnewday......"

Put the rabbit meat in the pot and stir fry.

The music cut to the next song, and the rhythm became stronger. Xiang Kun's hand holding the shovel couldn't help but follow the rhythm, and the soles of his feet snapped to the beat.

"Inaworldfulloffollowers~

I'llbealeader!

Inaworldfullofdoubters~

I'llbeabeliever!

I'msteppingoutwithoutahesitation~

Iain'tgotnothinglefttobeafraid..."

Add light soy sauce, add cooking wine, and stir fry. With a shake of your left hand, the rabbit meat in the pot churns up, and the spatula in your right hand is thrown out and quickly turned 720 degrees before holding firmly, but the rabbit meat is spilled Half of it is on the terrace...

Xiang Kun also sang out in some out-of-tune and non-standard English:

"Gonnabemakingitcount~~~~I~am~soldout (broken tone)~"

Add sugar, salt, and cook.

Take a bite, chew for a while, then spit it out.

Well, the taste...not very good.

Although he doesn't need to eat or vomit what he eats, his sense of taste has not deteriorated.

And because there is no appetite influence, on the contrary, there is a more objective and clear judgment on the taste of food.

Pour all the spicy rabbit meat directly into the trash can, and Xiang Kun began to prepare the second rabbit meat dish.

The music also cut to the next one. Well, this is the song he has heard, "Demons" by ImagineDragons. While cooking, he shook his shoulders and hummed with his untuned singing and unpredictable English. stand up:

"Youreyes, theyshinesobright~

Iwannasavethatlight~

Ican'tescapethisnow~~

Unlessyoushowmehow (x2)~~~"

Xiang Kun’s shovel flew, and quickly turned a spatula into a breaking knife, and the song he sang with became a Hokkien song "The Price of Heroes", the same thing is still out of tune:

"Hey (broken tone x3)~~~~~Loneliness is the price of a hero~"

"Hey (broken sound x4)~~~~~~~ A step away is a deep pit~~~"

It became Cantonese two minutes later, and continued to run out of tune with Beyond’s voice:

"I have regretted and regretted the hardships on my back~~~"

"Your eyes are full of tears at the moment~~"

"This world is already empty unconsciously (broken tone x5)~~"

"Woo~~~ I don't want you not to go~"

Braised rabbit meat came out of the pot, Xiang Kun threw the spatula over his head. This spatula, which was just bought in the afternoon and cost less than 10 yuan, spun in the air fast enough to stop for a moment on the roof, and then fell. After Xiang Kun put the rabbit meat on the plate, he raised his hand to catch it firmly.

The song on the phone continued. This time Jacky Cheung sang Xiang Kun enthusiastically. Of course, it was still out of tune:

"Against all beings~~~ At the mercy of the wind and the rain~"

"Destroy common people's laws and justice~"

"Autumn is higher than the sky~~"

"And Hongye finally showed arrogance!"

Suddenly there was a knock on the door that interrupted Xiang Kun, who was preparing for the third rabbit meat dish, singing and singing HIGH. He frowned and looked in the direction of the door. Judging from the sound, there were two people outside the door. Judging from the smell, both of them should be men, with a strong smell of sweat and smoke.

He glanced at his phone. It was already 3 o'clock in the morning. Who would come by then?

And every building in their community has an access control system. It stands to reason that you should press the doorbell first. Why would you knock on the door directly?

Xiang Kun was suspicious, turned off the gas, and walked to the door.

He didn't worry about someone coming to the door. After fighting the giant owl, he knew very well that if there were two ordinary people outside the door, unless they had a hot weapon, he should be fine one-on-two.

What's more, with his recovery ability, he has high fault tolerance.

But as he passed the living room, he still held a screwdriver backhand in his hand.

I looked outside from the cat’s eye, but was stunned to find that the security guards of the two communities stood at the door, and he had seen them all. They were definitely not fakes.

After hiding the screwdriver, Xiang Kun opened the door somewhat puzzled.

"Mr. Xiang, I'm sorry to interrupt you, we ring the doorbell and you won't open it, so we have to pat the door." After opening the door, the older security guard said.

Xiang Kun was a little weird: "Have you ever pressed the doorbell?" He didn't hear it. Could it be that he was too focused on cooking and at the same time his hearing attention was on his phone?

"Maybe I was just writing the code and I didn't hear it. Are you looking for something to do with me so late?" Xiang Kun said casually.

"Mr. Xiang, if you want to sing at home, please be quiet. It's too late now. The soundproofing here is not very good. Many owners have called complaints. You sang too loudly..." the elderly security guard expression Said somewhat weirdly.

Hearing this, Xiang Kun was stunned, as if there was an electric light in his mind.

Damn it!?What happened to me just now?

Before I played the music, I thought of not disturbing the people, so I only turned on one volume. Why did I just let myself go without knowing it?

I didn't realize that I was already singing along to the music.

"Mr. Xiang, Mr. Xiang?"

Seeing Xiang Kun who seemed to be petrified, the security guard called out in surprise.

Xiang Kun reacted, and then hurriedly folded his hands to apologize to them again and again: "I'm really sorry, sorry, sorry, I was confused by writing the code, wearing headphones, and accidentally sang along, myself I didn't even realize it."

"Well, Mr. Xiang should pay attention to it." The security guards didn't think there was anything wrong with Xiang Kun's explanation. In fact, they thought Xiang Kun was drunk and crazy, but after opening the door, it was obvious that he was sober. There is no smell of alcohol either, it seems that I should really be fascinated by listening to music with headphones, and I sing out unconsciously.

It’s just that Xiang Kun’s singing is really too loud, and there is no music, and it is out of tune and broken, which is really lethal at night.

After explaining the apology, after the two security guards left, Xiang Kun closed the door with a solemn expression on his face.

He just listened and focused on the music from the phone. To a certain extent, it does have the effect of wearing headphones. It will reject and block other sounds to a certain extent. This is also how he can accurately capture from a bunch of noises. The ability to reach the required sound.

At this time, the volume of your singing and vocalization may indeed be unclear, unclear, and too loud.

But Xiang Kun didn't think that this was the reason why he didn't realize the time and his voice was too loud. He had just completely entered a state of high self-HIGH, which was very abnormal.

Since the mutation, Xiang Kun has always tried his best to stay calm and rational. Even when he was driven by hunger and the desire to drink blood, he still had the idea of ​​subjective resistance and control.

After the first mutation, he was almost dominated by his body instinct in the vegetable market. He bought a chicken and returned to drink blood. From buying a chicken to returning to drink blood, he remembered very clearly, the feelings of the body and the brain. Thinking is not deprived.

But he always felt that it was not a decision made by his brain or his subjective consciousness, but was driven by a deeper instinct in the body. That instinct should be the satisfaction and pleasure he felt every time he drank blood. The desire and anxiety that I feel every time I feel hungry comes from the same source.

But the state just now obviously did not come from the body's instinct, but from his own subjective consciousness.

Because he knows very well that the behavior of the whole process is determined by himself, and his own consciousness is leading.

This made Xiang Kun even more worried, because he suddenly realized that he had been paying attention to the changes in the body since he mutated, but seemed to ignore the changes in the spirit.
