Although Director Wang's attitude was relatively bad, he still agreed to her request to come back tomorrow.
Cao Xue, who didn't have to continue to try to open the space, instantly let out a long sigh of relief. She whispered to everyone, lowered her head, and quickly left.
Looking at Cao Xue's back as she left in a hurry, Director Wang's frown due to dissatisfaction once again became a knot.
Although he didn't participate in the battle, many of the people who went were under his command, so he was well aware of the exaggeration in Cao Xue's words.
Although Cao Xue also participated in this mission, the people who really put in the most effort were Xu Zhe and Hei Bao.
However, before Xu Zhe and Hei Bao could complain about being tired, Cao Xue shouted first. Coupled with her previous act of embezzling supplies, Director Wang really couldn't believe that she was simply overdrawing her ability.
Compared to Cao Xue's claim of overdrawing her ability, Director Wang believed that Cao Xue was preparing to embezzle part of the supplies.
However, Director Wang didn't like Cao Xue, but he especially liked Xu Zhe and Hei Bao.
After Cao Xue left, Director Wang immediately called Xu Zhe, saying that he had worked hard this time and wanted to treat him to a meal as a reward.
Xu Zhe smiled at Director Wang's enthusiasm and said that Jiujiu had already prepared lunch for him, so it wasn't convenient for him to stay.
Hearing Xu Zhe mention Jiujiu, the smile on Director Wang's face deepened again. His face, which was full of wrinkles because of his thinness, instantly bloomed like a chrysanthemum. He said with pride, "Xu Zhe, Jia Shuang is the great benefactor of our base."
After saying this sentence of amazement, Director Wang rambled on about how Jiujiu was the great benefactor of the base.
Because there was already enough food, since some time ago, they had asked Jiujiu to help them grow vegetables.
At first, they only asked Jiujiu to grow vegetables that were easier to store, such as potatoes, sweet potatoes, pumpkins, cabbages and other vegetables that were easier to store. However, after planting for a period of time, they found that the vegetables grown by Jiujiu not only had a large yield, but also were easier to store. The cucumbers that other people could store for at most one or two days didn't wilt because of dehydration in Jiujiu's hands. Instead, they were still watery and green, making people drool.
From this, it could be seen that Jiujiu not only increased the production of vegetables, but also made them easier to store.
Regardless of whether it was for paranormals or ordinary people, this was an extremely beneficial thing.
In the past, because the ingredients were not easy to preserve, they ate whatever they had. But now, because the vegetables grown by Jiujiu were easy to preserve, they could arrange their daily meals according to the needs of the human body.
Due to the convenience that Jiujiu had brought to the Safety Zone, Director Wang, who had always valued Jiujiu, now valued Jiujiu even more.
The more dangerous the situation was, the more it tested one's humanity. People like Jiujiu and Xu Zhe were even rarer. Whether it was because of their contributions to the Safety Zone or because of their abilities, Director Wang liked them very much.
Because Xu Zhe said that Jiujiu had left food for him, Director Wang pulled Xu Zhe aside and nagged for a while, then watched Xu Zhe go back.
When Xu Zhe returned home, Jiujiu had just finished cooking. Seeing that Xu Zhe had returned, the corners of Jiujiu's mouth curled up slightly. She looked at Xu Zhe and said, "We're just about to eat. Do you want to eat?"
Although Xu Zhe's zombie body didn't need to eat, ever since Hei Bao noticed that he didn't eat, Xu Zhe began to eat like a human.
Hearing Jiujiu calling him to eat, Xu Zhe stepped into the bathroom to wash his hands. Only then did he sit down at the table and eat with Jiujiu.
After eating, Hei Bao cleaned up the dishes, and Xu Zhe and Jiujiu went upstairs to talk.
After going upstairs, Xu Zhe immediately told Jiujiu about the abnormalities he discovered. Especially when he said that as long as he restricted the entry and exit of space items, Cao Xue's space ability would lose its effect. Xu Zhe's face revealed a gloating smile.
"I think her space might be connected to my space using the jade pendant as a medium. When I restrict the entry and exit of space items, she can't connect to my space. Her superpower has no effect." Xu Zhe opened his eyes, which glowed with a faint red light like a vampire's, and said to Jiujiu in a declarative tone, "It's time to take back the jade pendant."
Firstly, he wanted to open the box, so naturally he had to get the jade pendant back. Secondly, if they got the jade pendant back, Cao Xue, who lost the jade pendant, wouldn't be able to take out the items. Even if they didn't do anything, with Director Wang's temper, Cao Xue wouldn't be able to bear the consequences.
After all, she herself claimed that she had a space ability. Since she had a space ability, how could space disappear for no reason?
That night, after Cao Xue fell asleep, Xu Zhe quietly appeared in Cao Xue's room. Relying on his perception of the jade pendant, Xu Zhe quickly found the jade pendant. After taking the jade pendant in his hand, Xu Zhe left in the same way he came.
Xu Zhe took the jade pendant back to the house and entered the space with Jiujiu, who had been waiting for a long time.
After entering the space, the two went straight to the thatched hut.
Xu Zhe put the jade pendant in the box. With a creak, the jade pendant disappeared. The box opened, and Xu Zhe finally got the book in the box.
The book was like a martial arts secret book in a TV series. The words "Body Tempering" were written on the page.
The moment she saw the words "Body Tempering", Jiujiu felt that the book was familiar.
Reaching out to take the book, Jiujiu opened the book and saw the words inside.
This book was very similar to a book she had read before, but it was a simplified version of that book. It talked about how to get rid of the impurities in the body and temper the body to be as invincible as steel.
The content of this book was very suitable for Xu Zhe's current situation.
Jiujiu stuffed the book into Xu Zhe's hand and looked at Xu Zhe. "Since it's your inheritance, it's natural for you to practice it."
Xu Zhe subconsciously wanted to put the book in Jiujiu's hand, but he heard Jiujiu say, "Body Tempering, as the name suggests, means to temper the body. I don't want to temper my body into a solid rock."
After Jiujiu finished speaking, she looked at Xu Zhe and asked, "Do you want me to turn my body into a solid rock?"
As soon as Jiujiu said this, Xu Zhe, who wanted to continue persuading Jiujiu, stopped talking.
Thinking of Jiujiu's naked body, Xu Zhe subconsciously shook his head. His girlfriend was definitely better to be soft and fragrant.
Because of Jiujiu's words, Xu Zhe directly began to practice the content of the book.
Because this was Xu Zhe's inheritance, Xu Zhe's cultivation speed was also very fast. After a while, Jiujiu saw a layer of black sticky liquid oozing out of Xu Zhe's body and emitting a foul smell. As the foul liquid oozed out of Xu Zhe's body, the blue color in Xu Zhe's face faded a lot.
