Natural Disaster, I Madly Hoard Supplies and Flee

Jiang Zhi struggled bitterly in the apocalypse for ten years, but ultimately couldn't survive the world's cruelty. During those ten years, Jiang Zhi witnessed all sorts of tragic scenes. Pu...

Chapter 123 Sarcastic and Uncomfortable

Jiang Zhi had just finished eating when Chen Jun arrived with his men.

He originally wanted to find the slaves to ask about the situation, but after searching around, he couldn't find them and became somewhat angry.

After all that, he still had no idea what Da Jiangzhi had been doing for the past few dozen hours.

Chen Jun knocked on the wooden board at the entrance of Jiang Zhi's cave. It wasn't Jiang Zhi who lifted the curtain, but Wan Fu, whom they had been chasing for a long time.

Concealing his displeasure, Chen Jun asked with a smile, "Is Boss Jiang here?"

Wan Fu raised his paw and stared at Chen Jun.

Hehe~

For some reason, Chen Jun always felt that this beast was mocking him.

Jiang Zhi opened the curtain and came in, just in time to see Wan Fu and Chen Jun looking at each other.

"What, Captain Chen, you're interested in my son too? How about I sell him to you, so he won't steal my food every day!"

Wanfu: ? ? ?

Mom doesn't want it anymore?

Chen Jun said awkwardly, "No, no, I can't even survive, how could I afford to keep a pet? No, no, no, it's my son."

"Really? You're the captain of the Bright Base, and you can't even afford to keep a cat? People will laugh at you if they find out. Wanfu eats very little, less than a person, and it can play by itself, so it doesn't require much effort." Jiang Zhi said as she came out of the cave and dusted herself off.

"Hehe, Mr. Jiang is joking. I came here tonight to deliver some things to you. These are all weighed metals. I also need to take you to see the fields. I'll be troubling you to manage them in the future."

"Really? Where is it?" Jiang Zhi asked with a smile.

For some reason, Chen Jun felt that Jiang Zhi's smiles these past few days seemed somewhat fake.

“They’re right next to us. We were prepared beforehand.” Chen Jun held up a torch, and Jiang Zhi could then see that there were several people standing behind him.

"Oh, I forgot to introduce them. These three are all wood-type ability users." Chen Jun pointed to the only woman and said, "This one is called Jiang Xiaolan. She lives not far from Boss Jiang. Since you are all girls, it will be convenient for you to look after each other."

Jiang Xiaolan bowed to Jiang Zhi: "Hello, Boss Jiang. I am Jiang Xiaolan, and I am currently an intermediate-level wood-type ability user."

"Hello, it's only been a little over a year since the apocalypse, and you've already reached the intermediate level. You have a bright future ahead of you, young lady."

"Haha, thank you for the compliment, Mr. Jiang. I don't deserve it." Jiang Xiaolan grinned, appearing carefree.

The other two men were twins, named Tang Jing and Tang Yun.

These three people were relatively clean, so it was clear they had plenty of water.

Besides the wood-type ability user, there were also two earth-type ability users who were sent to help Jiang Zhi turn the soil.

Jiang Zhi was happy to have free labor available.

However, she doesn't plan to start now; she'll postpone it as long as possible.

Han Xiaoying sneaked back, only to find that Chen Jun had brought a large group of people with him. She immediately felt uneasy. Remembering Chen Jun's previous warning to her, she could only hide and dared not show herself.

Once Chen Jun discovers she's gone, she'll definitely die a horrible death; for a superhuman, killing someone is just a matter of a moment.

Han Xiaoying was, after all, a high school student who was not yet an adult, and her mental fortitude was relatively weak. She accidentally kicked a plastic bottle, making a clanging sound.

"Who's there?" Chen Jun's expression changed instantly, unlike his amiable and submissive demeanor in front of Jiang Zhi. Han Xiaoying was so startled that she almost lost control of her bladder.

She slowly crawled out of the rubble, her body trembling.

"It's...it's me." Han Xiaoying raised her hand tremblingly.

Chen Jun roared, "What are you doing there? Speak!" He had been harboring a lot of resentment towards Jiang Zhi and had nowhere to vent it.

Han Xiaoying suddenly found herself in the line of fire.

"I...I...I..." Han Xiaoying looked up at Jiang Zhi, and suddenly remembered that Jiang Zhi had said she didn't like stutterers. She desperately suppressed her fear and tried to speak more coherently.

However, she couldn't find a suitable reason. If she lied to Chen Jun, Jiang Zhi might see through her immediately, and she would still be doomed.

At this moment, Jiang Zhi said, "What, Captain Chen, are you going to interfere with my slave? I'm the one who made her squat in that place. I don't like being disturbed anyway. Are you sending someone here to spy on me?"

Chen Jun was immediately shocked and said, "How is that possible? It's an unwritten rule of the base that people with superpowers bring slaves. We spend so much food to feed these ordinary people without superpowers. If we don't give them something to do, wouldn't they seem too useless? Boss Jiang, don't worry about it. It's nice to have a servant to do things for you, isn't it?"

“That makes sense. You guys really know how to have fun!” Jiang Zhi said with a smile.

Chen Jun wiped the sweat from his forehead, wondering why he always felt an invisible pressure when talking to Jiang Zhi.

Jiang Zhi enjoyed seeing these people resent her but unable to kill her. She secretly used the "Mount Tai Pressing Down" technique to achieve this effect.

On the surface, one must remain amicable and respectful.

I really don't know what these people are thinking. It's the end of the world, and they're still doing this kind of nonsense. It's hilarious.

"I wonder when Mr. Jiang will be able to open for business? Is there a specific date?"

"Since you've all asked, let's do it a week from now," Jiang Zhi replied.

"In that case, we'll look forward to it."

Chen Jun's main purpose in coming here was to help Jiang Zhi get to know people. These people will come again in a few days to work with Jiang Zhi.

I heard that the Shuofang base sent wood-type ability users to learn from Jiang Zhi. After returning, the wood-type ability users were indeed able to accelerate the growth of food much faster.

Therefore, Jiang Zhi must have a secret; her research and mastery of supernatural abilities have reached a level of perfection.

The golden egg is inside the goose's rear end, and now is not the time to kill the goose.

As for the cat named Wanfu, it is more cunning than imagined. The fact that so many superhumans failed to catch it last time shows that Wanfu is not an ordinary mutated animal, but a more advanced one, perhaps even possessing human-like intelligence.

After listening to Chen Jun's report, Zong Han could no longer suppress his desire for Wan Fu.

As for Jiang Zhi, he was determined to kill her.

This woman's ambition is far too great.

The Bright Base cannot tolerate such a person.

Jiang Zhi spent her days lying in bed, and took the opportunity to visit Wang Wan and Yan Zhi. The base hadn't given up on hunting them down; they had moved to a different location, one that only Jiang Zhi knew about.

Wang Wan still disguised himself and went out every day to collect metal, and their source of supplies was ice and food that he exchanged with Jiang Zhi for metal.

After all, they used to be on the same team, and they still maintain that relationship from back then.

When the team was formed, Jiang Zhi made it clear that the three of them should be independent and peaceful individuals, so there was no need to be too tightly bound together. They should take care of their own resources and protect their own lives, but they should also help each other.

The interests must be clearly defined.

Even close brothers keep clear accounts.

Therefore, if Wang Wan wants to obtain food from Jiang Zhi, he must follow Jiang Zhi's rules and exchange it for metal.
