In the long shadow of the setting sun, Qin He walked back with a shovel on his shoulder.

When passing by a collapsed ruin, Qin He was attracted by a piece of blue-red fruit.

The fruit is long and thin, pointed, red and half red and half green.

It turned out to be... pepper!

Qin He was overjoyed. He walked over and saw that it was pepper.

Scattered in a field that is obviously a small garden, with broken walls and ruins as the background, they are particularly eye-catching.

Qin He rubbed his hands unconsciously. In his previous life, Qin He loved spicy food, and he didn't like spicy food for three meals a day.

When I came to this world, I missed it a long time ago.

Sweet, sour, bitter, spicy and salty.

Needless to say, sugar is a luxury for rich people, and salt is also expensive. Not to mention ordinary people, even restaurants refuse to add salt. Sour taste is mostly a snack, and it is not something ordinary people can eat often.

The only thing left is bitterness. Qin He has eaten enough for a long time, and steamed buns with whole grains are bitter.

As for spicy.

Sorry, people in this time and space don't eat spicy food at all.

The chili pepper has just been passed in from the other side of the sea. It is an ornamental plant. The fruit it bears is prosperous and festive, and no one eats it at all.

Qin He thought that he would never be able to eat the most missed spicy food again, but unexpectedly, he found a piece of it under the mass grave.

Looking around, Qin He probably had a guess in his heart.

Although the house is dilapidated, judging from the traces, there used to be a fairly well-to-do family living here, but for some reason it fell into disrepair.

Peppers are planted by people living in houses for viewing. It is difficult for ordinary people to grow them.

Later, the mass graves expanded, and this place became an unlucky place, with swarms of wild dogs and few people.

So these peppers multiplied and became a piece.

Although Qin He didn't have the conditions to cook vegetables at all, he still couldn't help picking a big bag, took off his coat, wrapped it up, and collected a lot of seeds from the peppers that fell on the ground.

There's no way, thinking of all kinds of spicy recipes in the previous life, Qin He's saliva almost drools.

If you can't eat it for a short time, you can dry it, and you can eat it one day.

Qin He didn't stop until his coat couldn't fit anymore, and walked back with the big bag on his shoulders.

It was too early to return to the crematorium, and a group of cremators were very curious about the big bag behind Qin He, and saw Qin He pouring chili peppers into the bucket for cleaning, so they all gathered around.

"Brother Qin, what is this?" Liu Sanjin picked up a pepper and asked curiously.

"This is chili." Qin He grinned.

"chili?"

"What is it?"

"I heard that."

"Can I eat it?"

The cremator chattered a lot.

"A bunch of firewood, this is pepper, the old man planted it to see." Old Liangtou said loudly.

Seeing that old Liangtou was able to speak, everyone stepped aside. Old Liangtou stepped forward with his gray beard curled up, and also picked up a chili pepper and said: "Look at this color, it's red, it's as festive as that lantern color, rich master They love looking at this stuff."

Everyone suddenly realized.

Liu Sanjin asked Qin He: "Brother Qin, where did you get so many?"

"It was picked outside."

"What are you picking so much for?"

"This thing can be eaten and cooked."

"What, can I eat it?"

Liu Sanjin's eyes began to shine.

The crowd also became agitated. Although the crematorium did not have to worry about food and clothing, there was nothing good to eat.

They are all bitter Zamian steamed buns, it’s great to eat a little bit of salty but tooth-breaking sesame seed cakes.

"Brother Qin, can these peppers be eaten?"

Old Liang's head was broken, his beard fell off, and he also looked surprised.

In the past, Lao Liang would have slapped Qin He on the head and cursed, "You melon baby, the peppers are for food, not for food, they are poisonous."

But now the old Liangtou is afraid, and Qin He is now the first brother of the crematorium.

The tough guy who can't even burn a murderous corpse to death.

"Yes, it's very spicy." Qin He nodded sincerely.

"I'll try it."

Before Liu Sanjin could wait for Qin He to speak, he hurriedly stuffed the pepper in his hand into his mouth.

Chew once, twice.

The next moment, Liu Sanjin spat it all out with a "wow", opened his eyes, and stretched out his tongue.

"Ah! Fire fire fire..."

"The fire is dead, the fire is dead."

When Liu Sanjin bluffed, he was so frightened that he was already ready to share the chili peppers, and everyone hurriedly threw the chili peppers back into the bucket.

"You melon skin, you can't eat peppers, so rinse your mouth with water."

When Lao Liang looked at it, his beard was raised again, and his face was full of complacency.

Liu Sanjin hurriedly rinsed his mouth with water, until half of his clothes were wet before recovering.

When everyone saw it, they shook their heads and left.

Brother Qin is good at burning corpses, but his brain has never been very good.

You can't offend officials, you can't eat peppers, and you don't always run out if you have nothing to sleep.

These are all truths.

fool around.

"Brother Qin, you can't eat peppers, really you can't eat them."

Liu Sanjin also left with his tongue out, and kindly persuaded Qin He before leaving.

Qin He suddenly understands why peppers are not served on the table in this era.

First, this is indeed a new thing.

The second is the taste.

Chili peppers must be oiled. Cooking with oil at high temperature can reduce the spiciness. Steaming or boiling will not work.

But in this day and age, how could ordinary people afford oil? It was more expensive than meat, and one catty of oil-refined fat was worth three catties of lean meat.

If you can put a drop of oil star in the green vegetables, you are considered a well-off family.

Stir-fried vegetables with oil, I am sorry, I dare not even think about it if I can't afford it.

Qin He washes the peppers, then strings the peppers and hangs them next to the stove.

The heat of the stove can quickly dry the peppers.

After busy work, it was almost dark, and Dongcheng Bingmasi's corpse transport convoy appeared at the gate of the crematorium on time.

A total of twenty corpses.

Of the eighteen cremators, sixteen burn one corpse, and two burn two corpses.

Gao Linkun and Li Tie looked at each other when they learned the number, and then looked at Ling Zhonghai at the same time.

The question in the eyes is almost written on the face, how to give Qin a score?

Or to be more blunt, do you want to have Qin He?

"Tsk, what do you think I am doing, am I such a stingy person?" Ling Zhonghai was upset.

"Yes, yes, the head is big, the head is the biggest."

"We don't have the same knowledge as that silly boy."

Gao Linkun and Li Tie hurriedly nodded in agreement.

"Although I, Ling Zhonghai, am not a good person, I still follow the rules in everything. If that idiot offends me, I will give him three dead bodies. This matter will be considered clear. In the future, we can divide it up as we like. I will never It's hard for him." Ling Zhonghai patted his chest and said.

"Still angry." Gao Linkun gave a thumbs up.

"The head is full of strength." Li Tie also said, "Then give one to that silly boy tonight, and the two more to Li Cripple and Liu Sanjin."

"According to the rules, one person per person, and whoever has more will be distributed." Ling Zhonghai nodded.

After deciding on the distribution method, the three of them instinctively looked towards Room 7 where Qin He was staying, just as Qin He walked out.

He rushed over to the three of them and asked, "Guan Ye, Xu Guan Ye didn't come today?"

"The monthly rest is two days, and he will come tomorrow." Li Tie said.

"Oh."

Qin He nodded, then opened his eyes slightly to look at Ling Zhonghai, "Guy, don't move!"

"Ah?" Ling Zhonghai was taken aback.

At the moment when he was dazed, Qin He slapped him across the face like lightning.

The "pop" was loud and crisp.

Ling Zhonghai was stunned by the beating, Li Tie and Gao Linkun opened their mouths wide, but did not react.

"mosquito."

Qin He smiled, and slowly opened his palm, on which was a dead mosquito with blood on it.
