"Fugui, don't bully the little hen. She won't live much longer. Let her be happy in her last moments."

Bai Nuo turned around and saw Xiao Fugui sticking out his little bottom and pouncing on the little hen. Helpless, he took two steps forward and picked the little guy up.

"If you behave well, I'll save the chicken liver and gizzard for you later."

"Awooooo!"

"Okay, I'll give you another small piece of chicken breast. If you want anything else to eat tonight, just tell 925 when you get back. There's not much meat available outside."

Bai Nuo picked up Xiao Fugui and wiped his little paws with a damp towel, then tossed him into the house: "You're not allowed to go into the backyard anymore. You'll get your paws all muddy. Play quietly inside."

Seeing that its owner was blocking the back door, Little Fugui had no choice but to turn around and go back to its nest to fetch its little toys to play with.

These little toys were all dog toys that the system found in the space warehouse. The labels were removed and they were given to Xiao Fugui, who absolutely loves them.

Bai Nuo tidied up the backyard, then took out the bamboo cage she had woven a few days ago from the storage room and placed it on the small open space between the vegetable garden and the outhouse.

The small bamboo cage is a rectangular enclosure woven from bamboo strips, with a large lid on top. It is exactly the size of the small open space and is specially used to raise chicks and ducklings. It is about one meter high and covered with a woven bamboo net. There is no need to worry about the chicks and ducklings growing up and flying out. Feeding and cleaning are also convenient. Just lift the lid.

Bai Nuo also put two wooden troughs inside for them to drink water and eat.

After tidying everything up, Bai Nuo put the chicks and ducklings she had bought that day inside. Finally, she placed a small nest made of straw in the corner, where the little guys would probably squeeze in to sleep at night, where it would be warm and give them a sense of security.

"Host, don't we have a livestock farm in our space? Why are you raising them separately in the backyard? You'll have to clean it up yourself, and it'll be covered in poop!"

"...Let's not bring this up now, okay!" Bai Nuo, who was happily looking at her new family member, rolled her eyes when she heard this. "The breeding team can't get eggs very often. If I don't raise two chickens, I'll have to sneak around to eat eggs in the future. Even if I get tired of raising them one day, I can just eat them."

“...That makes sense!” The little system nodded knowingly.

In the mind of its ruthless host, there is no reason to be reluctant to eat after raising a pet for a long time. In its host's mind, food must be treated as food, not as a pet.

At that time, the only thing its host will probably consider is: is it better to steam it or braise it? Will adding some Sichuan peppercorns and chili peppers make it even more fragrant?

Bai Nuo put some coarse grain husks and water into the feeding trough for the chicks and then left it there, turning around to catch the hen.

Holding a hen in one hand and a cleaver in the other, he sat on a small stool at the backyard gate, pinning the hen down on a wooden stump and raising the cleaver...

"Wait, host, spare my life?"

The little system quickly flew over and grabbed its host's arm, which was holding a kitchen knife, with both hands, afraid that she might accidentally behead the little hen.

"What are you doing? I want to eat chicken stew with mushrooms tonight."

Bai Nuo glared at her stupid system with displeasure. How dare it stop her from eating delicious food!

"I didn't say you couldn't eat it, but you shouldn't kill a chicken like this!" The little system looked helplessly at its host and asked cautiously, "Host, you've never killed a chicken before? That's not right, you killed all sorts of things in your past life, how could you not know how to kill a chicken?"

"Kill them!"

Bai Nuo nodded honestly, put down the kitchen knife in her hand, glanced at the little hen that she was holding down, and said softly, "In my past life, I killed mutated chickens. Those things are taller than me and Fang Meng combined when they stand up. I usually jump up and chop off the head of the mutated chicken in one stroke. But some mutated chickens have five or six heads, so I have to chop them off quickly, otherwise their regeneration ability is too strong. Every time I cut one off, another one grows back. It's so annoying!"

This immediately silenced the system!

When it found its host in the apocalypse, the host no longer liked to go around killing zombies and mutated beasts. Most of the time, it would either find a place to stay and do nothing, or go to other people's bases to watch the excitement. Occasionally, it would cause a ruckus, making a huge commotion among the leaders of the base, and then take it to other places to continue causing trouble.

The main theme is that he doesn't want to live anymore, and he doesn't want others to live too comfortably either.

Moreover, back then, whenever Bai Nuo went out, not only people, but even mutated beasts would run away when they saw her. Only those brainless zombies dared to come up and fight her head-on, so the little system never saw a real mutated beast.

Now, hearing his host describe it, he suddenly became curious!

"Host, are the mutated beasts in the apocalypse... mutated with such a large arc?"
