Just call cockroach!

“To eat or not to eat, that is a question.” Zhang Xiao Qiang was staring at the big piece of at as he thought to himself.
“It will be great if we can find soone to try it out...” Zhang Xiao Qiang took a glance at Yang Ke Er but eventually decided to drop the idea to make her test out the at as she is still a young girl, even though she is a little brainless, and no longer pure (like a virgin). But it is a norm to not be a virgin. Soone once said “Virgin? You have to go to the elentary school to find one” But Zhang Xiao Qiang still thinks that one should be able to find a virgin in high school.
Zhang Xiao Qiang looked back to the at, the color of the at has turned slightly black, maybe because no one released the blood from the at in ti and all the blood has flown back into the at.
Swallowing his saliva, he started to have strong cravings as he had not eaten any at for the past few days. He started limping towards the at, stopping right in front of it. He used his knife and cut a big piece of at. Closing his eyes, he started to stuff the at into his mouth.
Right before he put the at into his mouth, he stopped as the strong stanch of the raw at jamd the nerves in his nose. He walked over to the bonfire and started to barbeque the at until the at start to turn slightly yellow and slled nice. Relying on his body that had just passed the test of the weird rain, he stuffed the at into his mouth.
“It’s a little tough!” Zhang Xiao Qiang said. “Oh it got stuck in between my teeth,” as he summarizes the tasting session.
“Are you done? I can’t wait anymore!” Yang Ke Er asks while she barbeques the monster’s hind leg by the bonfire. Zhang Xiao Qiang took a look at the at and said “not yet”.
After seeing that Zhang Xiao Qiang did not react badly to the at, the little girl also ate the at. This proves that Zhang Xiao Qiang’s theory is right, the D virus is bad for humans but it does not affect animals negatively.
“I wonder if the monkey will turn into zombie monkey?” that thought ca to Zhang Xiao Qiang while he was looking at the bonfire.
“It’s burnt! It’s burnt! I said it’s done but uncle don’t believe, hmmpf!” Yang Ke Er started complaining about the at being a little burned.
“You threw my good intentions into the drain! Don’t eat it since it’s burnt.” Zhang Xiao Qiang chided at Yang Ke Er.
“Alright, I’m sorry. Oh my god, the at is so tough!” Yang Ke Er said with a frown. “It doesn’t co off no matter how hard I chew!”
“Treat it like you are eating a sow (female pig) and chew on it a few more tis!” Zhang Xiao Qiang shared his experience.
“Uncle, what’s your na?” Yang Ke Er finally rembered to ask for his na.
He felt his heart wrenched after he recalls so mories when Kang Ke Er asked for his na.
“Xiao Qiang! Xiao Qiang! Stop playing and co back for dinner,” His mother would call for him when he was young.
“Please introduce yourself,” The teacher steps down from the podium while he walks up, staring into the eyes of more then fifty people.
“I... I am Zhang Xiao Qiang,” he answered softly, that was a mory in high school.
“Xiao Qiang, what you gonna do... Seeing soone younger dying before your very own eyes,” that was when his classmate recited a famous movie line to him. [JY: Because Xiao Qiang is a commonly used na, it was used everywhere]
“Zhang Xiao Qiang? Hahaha, isn’t that a cockroach? Sorry, hahaha.... I cannot take it, it’s too funny,” This happened when he went for a blind date.
Thinking about all those experiences, he is filled with resentnt towards his na. It is like curse, following him until he dies.
“A na is just a symbol, it is just a mory, it cannot represent anything!” Zhang Xiao Qiang told Yang Ke Er sternly.
“But how should I address you? I can’t always call you uncle right? Are you having nopause? Or are you still angry that I laughed at you for being single...”
He fell silent after hearing Yang Ke Er’s comnt.
He suddenly rembered how a cockroach begs to live after being trapped in a bottle, and also the tis where he faced difficulties after leaving ho.
“You can call cockroach.” Zhang Xiao Qiang makes up his mind.
“What? Cockroach? That is disgusting, I hate cockroaches! Why do you have to call yourself that!” Yang Ke Er made a negative remark about that idea of calling him cockroach.
“Are you full? Go to sleep if you are full! We will continue the training tomorrow!” Zhang Xiao Qiang orders Yang Ke Er to go to bed, while trying to change the subject.
“..........” Yang Ke Er squirms into the blanket while muttering sothing.
Zhang Xiao Qiang finishes the last piece of at, touch his belly and sighed. He always eats a lot when he is injured. Although it is good that he will recover fast, it is upsetting to see the food supply decreasing so fast.
He cuts off the remaining at from the monster to barbeque, preparing to keep the at as his food supply. Although the at is tough, it does helps to suppress his hunger. The monster is left with bones after cutting off all the at. Zhang Xiao Qiang searched through the abdominal of the monster but could not find any gallbladder stone like the ones he usually finds in a cat.
“Could it be that only cats have that?” Zhang Xiao Qiang wondered.
With all the at is now barbequing by the bonfire, Zhang Xiao Qiang wondered to himself, “The monster was enormous in size but there wasn’t much at, only about 100 pounds. The rest is taken up by bones and organs, and after barbequing, we are left with around 50 pounds of edible at,” (I rember buying roughly 5 pounds’ beef and after cooking, what’s left is only 2 pounds, not sure it was due to so injection to make the at heavier – Author’s own thought)
After keeping the barbequed at, he took a glance at the monster skin, and proceeds to scrape off the fascia (connective tissues) and used the ash from the burnt wood to tan the skin. He stops after seeing that it is almost done, thinking how should he use the skin? That is a tough question!
The main weapon has been destroyed as the iron lance has broken into two. The triangular pointed top of the iron lance has also turned into a S shape and the tal pipe is also bent out of shape. The iron lance has been through many battles with Zhang Xiao Qiang and he feels sad that he can no longer use it.
He buried the iron lance and hugged the pair of monster horns to sleep.
“Uncle Zhang, slow down, I cannot run anymore.” Zhang Xiao Qiang stays in front, riding the bicycle with the bag of monster at at the back of the bicycle while Yang Ke Er does her training, running behind the bicycle.
Zhang Xiao Qiang ignores her and continue riding his bicycle.
“Zhang Xiao Qiang stop now!!” Yang Ke Er shouted, panicking. She managed to guessed his na right then.
“Crunch!” he stopped, “finally you stopped! Pant, pant! I’m so tired!” Yang Ke Er walks to Zhang Xiao Qiang, breathing heavily.
Zhang Xiao Qiang ignores her and look through the binoculars. “What happen?” Yang Ke Er asked curiously.
There is a zombie in the field ahead, around a mile away with no buildings in sight. This is a rare opportunity!
“Can you see that zombie?” Zhang Xiao Qiang told Yang Ke Er while pointing to the direction of the field.
“What’s the matter? It looks ordinary,” Yang Ke Er doesn’t give a second look and used her hand to fan herself.
“Go and kill it.” Zhang Xiao Qiang spoke as if it was as easy as killing an ant.
“..........” Yang Ke Er freezes up upon hearing what he said.
“B...But I don’t have have any experience!” Yang Ke Er stares blankly at Zhang Xiao Qiang.
“No one has experience at the start. It is a good opportunity now, go, I will watch you from the back” Zhang Xiao Qiang explains to Yang Ke Er.
“T.. Then will you rescue if I encounter any danger?” Yang Ke Er pleads.
“No, I told you before! You can only depend on yourself, if you don’t dare to kill it today, you should dig a hole and bury yourself! Saves you from going through unnecessary suffering!” Zhang Xiao Qiang spoke firmly, with a stern look on his face.
“I.. What do I use to kill the zombie?” with an excuse, Yang Ke Er holds on to the side of his clothes tightly and looked at Zhang Xiao Qiang with puppy eyes.
“Take this,” Zhang Xiao Qiang said as he took out an iron hamr.
