Bab 6: Pendant Jade
Shen Yize remained silent and continued his work, as if reluctant to answer. This made Jiang Zhi even more curious.
"Tell me, how do you know General Mo Yuxuan?" Jiang Zhi asked again and would ask until he got an answer.
However, Shen Yize didn't want to answer. He just clenched his mouth and walked into the living room. Jiang Zhi followed along like a chicken, but his mouth kept making noises.
"We were comrades in arms before and until the end of the world came, but you kept secrets from me. This is outrageous!"
Shen Yize stopped walking, turned back, and looked at Jiang Zhi. The expression on his face did not look good. After a few moments of staring at the man, he let out a light snort, then said, "You're so noisy, like a woman in heat."
"Hey, what are you saying?" Jiang Zhi interrupted irritably. If it weren't for his curiosity about Mo Yuxuan, he wouldn't have said so much.
Turning his face away and resuming his steps, Shen Yize said, "Didn't I tell you that I can predict the future, and this Mo Yuxuan is in it?"
"So you don't know him?"
Shen Yize threw his body on the sofa lazily, glancing at Jiang Zhi. "How do I know him? Am I so great?"
Jiang Zhi nodded again, but thinking of the luxurious penthouse left by the man's parents, it didn't seem impossible that Shen Yize could know a big man like Mo Yuxuan. So he looked at Shen Yize with doubt.
Of course, Shen Yize, which made him let out a long sigh, could see the doubt in Jiang Zhi's eyes. He rolled his eyeballs and gave Jiang Zhi a disgusted expression.
"I'm telling the truth. My impression of him is only from what I saw when I predicted the doomsday period." Shen Yize wasn't lying. He didn't know Mo Yuxuan, at least not now. Maybe in the future, too.
After a silence, Shen Yize spoke again before being interrupted by Jiang Zhi, "He's not a good person, it's best to avoid getting into a dispute with him too early." At least until you're strong enough to defeat him, Shen Yize continued in thought.
Jiang Zhi didn't understand why Shen Yize hated Mo Yuxuan so much. However, according to what he heard, Jiang Zhi guessed that Mo Yuxuan had done them wrong in Shen Yize's eyes.
If you think about it seriously, Mo Yuxuan's evil character makes sense. His arrogance had a reason in that he was born strong and brilliant, as if the top position of respect and fear was rightfully his.
Jiang Zhi sighed regretfully. Look at him, just an ordinary doomsday human with a standard appearance.
"Don't think about it too much. I'll be your huge supporter." Shen Yize's words shattered Jiang Zhi's reverie.
"I'm not... it's just a shame that such a perfect person has a dark side."
"Heh, no one is perfect in this world. Don't be naïve!"
"I know." Jiang Zhi looked away, but his mood was not very good. It seemed like he had to try hard to achieve half the glory of General Mo Yuxuan.
"By the way, we can start hunting after a few more days. So prepare yourself."
Jiang Zhi finally looked back at Shen Yize. This time, a serious look replaced his previous gloomy expression. He had heard that zombies had crystal nuclei in their brains, which could augment the strength of people with special abilities. Each zombie also had different abilities, so each zombie's crystal nucleus could only help special ability users of the same type.
However, if they were hunting zombies, the only one capable of absorbing was Shen Yize. It was also the same rare type of healing zombie as the owner of the healing, special ability.
"Are there any other uses for this crystal core?" asked Jiang Zhi.
Shen Yize nodded his head. "There are many. It will also be a medium of exchange in place of money. That's why we need to collect a lot in the first place."
Jiang Zhi made an indistinct murmur in response. Then he walked away to his room while taking off his sleeveless shirt in front of Shen Yize. Although they were men, Jiang Zhi felt awkward in Shen Yize's presepast Even Jiang Zhi often saw Shen Yize wearing only boxers. However, Shen Yize didn't have any other thoughts that were different from Jiang Zhi's situation.
It wasn't that Jiang Zhi lusted after men; it was just that, for some reason, he always thought of Shen Yize as different from the men out there. Maybe it was because Jiang Zhi had an image of a female-looking Shen Yize in the past.
Not like Jiang Zhi, Shen Yize also had no other thoughts about the other party. However, he was envious of Jiang Zhi's increasingly good body proportions. Shen Yize looked at Jiang Zhi's back and found something interesting. He snorted in annoyance, but his eyes were fixed on the pendant of Jiang Zhi's necklace.
"Hey, since when do you wear a necklace?" Shen Yize had often seen Jiang Zhi, but this was the first time he had seen a necklace around the man's neck.
"Ah, this?" Jiang Zhi held up the pendant of his necklace and showed Shen Yize. "I found it in an old box the other day. It looked good, so I put it on."
"You... you're so lucky, Bro!" Shen Yize squealed with delight, rising to his feet and reaching out to grab the pendant.
However, Jiang Zhi avoided him quickly. "What's wrong?" he asked, both confused and wary.
Shen Yize had an annoyed look on his face. "Hey, don't you know?"
Frowning, Jiang Zhi showed an expression of ignorance. That made Shen Yize cluck his tongue. It was incredible that the strongest god was ignorant, even a little... stupid.
"That is jade, you know, right?"
Jiang Zhi nodded ridiculously.
"The longer the age of the jade, the more likely it is to have power in the end times," Shen Yize explained calmly, but Shen Yize sharply fixed his gaze on the jade around Jiang Zhi's neck. "That only applies if the jade is old enough."
After digesting the information, Jiang Zhi asked, "Then how do I know?"
"Impress your blood on the surface of the stone and see how it reacts."
Jiang Zhi thought about it for a while before taking off his necklace. He stared at the jade pendant. Having made up his mind, he did as Shen Yize said. Bit his fingertip until it bled and dripped blood onto the jade surface.
One minute. Two minutes. Five minutes. Ten minutes.
Nothing happened.
Jiang Zhi looked away from the jade and gave Shen Yize a reproachful look.
Seeing his gaze, Shen Yize squinted at the jade and sighed. "I'm not lying. That means your jade is not ancient enough."
Jiang Zhi let out a long sigh and ignoring Shen Yize, he went to his room to clean the jade, but his stomach suddenly gave him heartburn. He simply placed the jade on the nightstand and ran to the bathroom, relieving himself quickly.
Oh, maybe he also needed to clean his body after exercising earlier.
Half an hour passed and Jiang Zhi had already forgotten about the jade. He left the room to find some food before entering the surveillance room upstairs.
As he walked towards the stairs, Jiang Zhi noticed that the door to the basement was open. He peeked a little, but had no intention of entering. The basement contained almost the same supplies as the common room, only in smaller quantities and quite rarely. He knew that Shen Yize had an interest in weapons and his ability to use weapons was also quite good.
Sometimes, Jiang Zhi thought Shen Yize was strange. However, he didn't think he had any bad intentions, so Jiang Zhi ignored the weirdness.
As soon as he entered the surveillance room, an alarm rang in the house, signaling that someone was approaching or even touching the gate.
Both Jiang Zhi and Shen Yize were startled and reacted quickly. Jiang Zhi immediately adjusted the surveillance and checked it.
Shen Yize's shout rang out, "What's wrong?"
After all, they had lived on this base for months and no one had ever been here other than a few nearby villagers. Since the end of the world, not a single person had come. And today, as the rain pounded the earth relentlessly, someone suddenly approached their base.
Under surveillance, they saw a foreign car parked carelessly on the road. A person turned his back to the surveillance camera, his posture looking limp, with trembling hands banging on the iron gate.
"Is it still human?" Shen Yize asked as he watched the figure.
"Looks like it is. Should we help him?" Jiang Zhi glanced at Shen Yize with a serious yet reluctant expression.
After a few moments of watching Jiang Zhi, Shen Yize asked back, "What do you think?"
Jiang Zhi nodded without hesitation. After all, the people outside were still human. Even if it would turn into zombies, they still had a chance to win.
However, when the person outside turned his face and faced the camera, both Shen Yize and Jiang Zhi made surprised faces.
This was so unexpected!
