After leaving school, Gao Peng first went to the shop to buy a large amount of materials. He put them in a black bag and placed the bag on Da Zi's back.
Da Zi followed Gao Peng like a camel carrying luggage.
A green jellyfish floated on Gao Peng's left shoulder. Although it was green, it was very beautiful. Its whole body was crystal clear, like a piece of green jade. Its surface shone with spots of light, and it was extremely beautiful. Plus, it could fly, so it attracted a lot of attention.
When they reached home and opened the door, the floor was covered with Abba's old skin, scattered all over the living room.
Gao Peng sighed. It was not a good idea to keep throwing away these old skins. It was too wasteful.
In fact, spiders' molting was not unique to the world after the Cataclysm. In the world before the Cataclysm, spiders had the ability to molt, just like snakes. Every time a spider molted, it would become bigger.
Before the Cataclysm, spiders molted more than once in their lives. Depending on the species, they would molt at least five times.
Now, after the Cataclysm, this ability seemed to have been strengthened. Normally, spiders would not molt so quickly, but Abba's performance was extraordinary. There were four old skins piled up in the house, which meant that Abba had grown four times in a day.
Yesterday, its diameter was only 1.2 meters, but now it was almost 1.5 meters, and its height was more than half a meter. It was hard to imagine that a few days ago, it was a spider the size of a millstone.
However, continuing to metamorphose like this wasn't the same thing. Gao Peng was a little troubled. As these guys in the house grew bigger and bigger, they took up more and more space. According to the data in the data frame, the Gray Armored Spider would grow to a full three meters in diameter when it reached adulthood, which was comparable to a small car.
The house could definitely fit them, but it would be very crowded.
At the moment, Gao Peng did not dare to go to the villa.
He admitted that he was a little cowardly. He would not take the initiative to look for excitement when he knew that it was very dangerous. That was something only the main character in a movie would do. Who would be so stupid?
I don't care what kind of conspiracy those people have, I'll just ignore it. When my little cuties grow up, I'll reason with them.
Gao Peng squatted down and gently stroked Abba who was lying on the ground. As she had just shed her skin, Abba was still weak.
The skin on the surface of his body was very light, and the exoskeleton was soft to the touch. The fine hairs on his palm were a little itchy.
As the exposed skin came into contact with the air, the exoskeleton was hardening at a slow rate.
After thinking for a while, Gao Peng decided to go to the garage and buy a parking space. When the time came, he could take turns placing the large monsters in the parking space to rest.
This way, they wouldn't occupy the public areas of the neighborhood, and they could also solve a problem.
The only problem was that when the neighbors drove into the garage in the future, they would see a spider the size of a car or a skeleton that was four meters tall lying in the garage, looking at them through the window.
Gao Peng picked up the old skins that were scattered on the ground. Since he did not want to waste them, he gathered them together.
He heard that the exoskeleton of spiders could be used as medicine, so this thing should be edible. Even if it wasn't, he would transfer any injuries he suffered to Abba or Da Zi because of the contract.
He picked up a piece of spider skin and walked into the kitchen. He tore off a small piece of spider skin and washed it clean. He mixed the eggs and flour, then poured it over the spider skin and spread it evenly.
He heated up the pan and used a brush to brush some sesame oil on the bottom of the pan. A faint green smoke rose from the surface of the pan. He then placed the processed spider skin at the bottom of the pan.
Sizzle —
The sound of oil frying came from the pan.
A faint fragrance came from the pan.
Gao Peng took a deep breath. It was quite fragrant.
The fragrance attracted a few people in the house, and they all ran over.
They all huddled together and looked at Gao Peng's back, their eyes full of desire.
Dumb stared blankly for a while, then suddenly remembered his identity. He quietly turned around and left. He took out a Yin cedar needle from the fridge and skillfully put it into his mouth. He placed it on the edge of the window sill and exhaled smoke.
I'm not interested in your things. Yin cedar needles are the real delicacies.
Da Zi was the most excited. As Gao Peng's "old man" and the first familiar, its status was very special among all the familiars. It had the highest status.
Da Zi was usually the first to taste such delicacies.
Abba was very envious. It stared at its master's back, then inadvertently saw the unused spider skin on the chopping board.
Hmm?
That spider skin looks familiar.
It looks like it shed its own skin. But why would its shed skin be on its master's chopping board?
With Abba's current simple brain capacity, it couldn't think of such a deep question.
In the next moment, its attention was attracted by the fragrance in the pot.
Da Zi also saw the spider skin on the chopping board. But unlike Abba, Da Zi had a better memory, and it had been in Gao Peng's house for a longer time. Naturally, it knew what was on the chopping board.
Usually, only food would be placed there.
So …
Da Zi looked at Abba with a strange gaze.
Abba was confused.
Why was its boss looking at it like that? And with such a strange gaze.
"Squeak squeak squeak." Abba squeaked.
Da Zi nodded, then turned back to look at its master's busy back.
Fragile spider skin like this couldn't be fried for too long, even with eggs and flour. Otherwise, it would easily become charred.
Gao Peng turned down the heat and carefully pinched a bit of the fried spider skin. The fried spider skin was very crispy, and when it was put into his mouth, it crunched. The thick fried fragrance filled his mouth and attacked his taste buds.
Mm, it was still missing some cumin powder.
Gao Peng took out some cumin powder from the seasoning cabinet and sprinkled it on the spider skin. He took another bite, and the texture was much better.
Abba shed a lot of skin. After Gao Peng was full, he made a few more servings for Da Zi and Abba.
Da Zi ate happily, and so did Abba.
But when it ate, Abba felt that the taste was a little familiar … Maybe it was an illusion.
Abba even licked its lips after eating.
It was delicious!
Then, Gao Peng turned on the TV and played the Armored Baby cartoon. The four monsters squatted in front of the TV and watched it with relish.
Gao Peng took the opportunity to go downstairs to the real estate agent to see if there were any parking spaces for sale in his neighborhood.
After all, his neighborhood was an old one, and all the parking spaces had been sold. If he wanted a parking space, he could only buy it from someone else.
After visiting two real estate agents, Gao Peng was lucky enough to find information about a neighborhood garage for sale. Although it wasn't in his building, it was in the same neighborhood and was only a few hundred meters away.
He dialed the number, and the discussion went smoothly. They signed the contract that night.
The person who came to sign the contract was a man in his thirties. When he heard that Gao Peng wanted to sign the contract quickly, he agreed without hesitation and took a taxi over.
Then, the two of them took a taxi to the government's real estate department to go through the certification process. All the procedures were completed within an hour.
Gao Peng couldn't help but be impressed by the efficiency of the Allied Government. Nowadays, the Allied Government adopted a 24-hour day and night work system, and many procedures were handled very efficiently.
When Gao Peng returned home, the familiars in the living room were all asleep.
The cartoon was still playing on the TV. The familiars were lying on the floor and the sofa. They all sensed that someone had come in and went back to sleep after sensing that it was their master.
