Is it because of my rebirth?
Qin Qing frowned as he glanced at the zombie's head. He happened to see the spot where his machete had slashed it open. A faint glint shone through the light. Qin Qing's heart skipped a beat. He ignored his fatigue and stood up, moving closer to the zombie's head. He then slashed the zombie's head open again with the machete.
Between the two halves of the bone, in the middle of the muddy black, there was a transparent stone. Qin Qing picked out the stone with the tip of a machete and then rinsed it with the well water in the space. The stone, which had been covered in black mud, was now completely exposed.
The stone was shaped like a diamond, and I had initially thought it was transparent, but upon closer inspection, I discovered it was actually slightly pink. I tapped it lightly with a watermelon knife, but the stone didn't leave a mark. However, the blade of my own watermelon knife did curl a little.
Could this stone be as powerful as a diamond? I wonder what this stone is good for? Could it be that this zombie is so powerful because it has this thing in its head? Thinking that this was something in a zombie's head, Qin Qing felt nauseous. However, she felt it was a pity to throw it away. After thinking for a moment, she casually tossed the stone to the edge of the land in her space.
Qin Qing fished out a bottle of well water from the space and drank half of it in one gulp. The fatigue in her body gradually dissipated. She had discovered during her time in the warehouse that the well water in the space had a restorative effect, though the effect wasn't very noticeable.
Looking at the jade on the counter, Qin Qing picked up the stool in front of the counter and smashed it against the glass. In a short while, all the jade that had made Qin Qing feel cool was gone. Qin Qing was about to leave, but when he passed the headless manager's body, he suddenly paused.
Because his body was blurred by the bites, the key ring on his waist fell to the side, making it particularly conspicuous. A jewelry store like this must have its own secret room to prevent theft. The jewelry displayed outside is probably not very valuable. The good ones must require the manager's approval before they can be taken into the secret room and shown to customers.
Although Qin Qing didn't understand any of this, she instinctively picked up the key ring. Downstairs was full of counters, making it easy to see what was going on. After a moment's thought, Qin Qing headed upstairs. There were only two rooms on the left and right, and a spacious living room in the middle.
One room had a sign labeled "Manager" above it, apparently the manager's office. Qin Qing guessed the other room was where valuables were kept. He tried the keys one by one, and when they clicked, Qin Qing felt delighted.
Qin Qing hurriedly pushed the door open, only to be disappointed. It turned out that inside this room, there was a stainless steel door with a fingerprint lock. Looking at the fingerprint lock and thinking of the body downstairs, Qin Qing muttered a sin. He hurried downstairs, chopped off the corpse's hands, and placed them on the fingerprint lock. With a click, the stainless steel door opened.
As soon as the door opened, Qin Qing felt a cool breeze rushing towards him. After the door was fully opened, the room was filled with two rows of shelves. One row held gold, the other row contained diamonds and jade.
Qin Qing's gaze was drawn to the jade on the table. Among them was a conical, emerald green jade that gave off a chilling sensation. Her palms suddenly felt hot, as if they had been rubbed against it.
She hurried over and held the emerald green jade in her left hand. She had not seen the energy of the jade being absorbed before, but now she saw that the originally emerald green jade, after being held in her left hand, slowly lost its green color at a speed visible to the naked eye, revealing a layer of petrified and cracked stone.
The heat in Qin Qing's palm slowly subsided as the jade's energy was absorbed. However, the jade wasn't large, and while the energy it contained was pure, it wasn't substantial. Qin Qing squeezed the now-penetrated jade with a lingering feeling. Then, he glanced at the other jades in the trays. Those jades were clearly far inferior to the conical piece, and Qin Qing sensed they didn't hold much energy.
Thinking it was okay if there weren't any fish or shrimp, Qin Qing unceremoniously stuffed all the jade into her pocket. Then, carrying the bag of jade, she slipped into the space. Sure enough, the space she'd already filled had expanded even further. It looked like this piece of jade was several times better than the first one she'd absorbed. It was obvious that the previous expansion was only about half a meter, but this time it was a full five meters. If she absorbed all the small pieces of jade in the bag, it would at least expand another meter or two, right?
Thinking of this, Qin Qing deftly poured out all the jade stones, then sat cross-legged beside them and began to absorb the energy from them. This time, she could clearly feel the space trembling slightly, and then slowly expanding outward. However, all the jade stones added up to only expand the space by less than one meter.
Although it wasn't much bigger, Qin Qing was incredibly excited. She believed that as long as she persevered, she could definitely make the space bigger and bigger. As she gathered the jade stones that had become waste and was about to throw them out of the space, she saw the crystal in the zombie's head at the edge of the space.
As if possessed, she picked up the crystal, wondering if there was any energy in the stone. If so, what would happen if she absorbed it? As soon as the thought left her mind, she felt a burning sensation in the palm of her left hand. Her body moved faster than her thoughts, placing the crystal in her left palm.
Qin Qing only felt a surge of energy rushing out from the crystal, but the energy in the crystal did not give a cool feeling, but a burning sensation. The scorching temperature seemed to roast Qin Qing's hand on the stove. She wanted to scream, but no sound came out.
She tried to release the crystal in her hand with her own will, but it clung to her palm as if it had its own consciousness. The heat instantly spread throughout her body. Qin Qing felt a bang in her head, like an atomic bomb exploding, and she fainted.
The heat raged through Qin Qing's body like a disease, while his heart and dantian were enveloped in a cool, gentle aura. No matter how hard the heat tried to penetrate, it was repelled.
Slowly, the hot air was bounced back less and less, but it did not penetrate into the cool air. Instead, it seemed to be slowly swallowed up by the cool air. After assimilation, the originally violent hot air slowly stopped being restless and running around.
