Chapter 59: Encounter

Yu Shi Lan naturally knew that Xiao Mao was trying to change the conversation, but she chose to listen.

Because she also noticed that this building was still in good condition.

“Let’s check inside.”

Naturally, Yu Shi Lan would not choose any place that was still inhabited with people. Even though her senses were limited, her past experience could help her judge whether a place had people living or not.

First of all, just take a look at the sign of people living inside.

Such as the traces of movement, food, and many others that could indicate that someone was here some time ago.

“Meow.” <There’s no smell of other humans… even if there is, it’s very faint.>

It has been some time since the earthquake happened.

Even though many people had chosen to go to the official shelters, there were still many of them who chose to stay outside and rely on themselves. The people in this areas might be among them.

Xiao Mao looked around but she didn’t move from Yu Shi Lan’s pocket.

After all, her small body was really inconvenient to move.

It was really tragic to go back being a baby and Xiao Mao wanted to cry many times but held back.

A dignified soul spirit cat will never cry!

Hmph!

“Then it’s here.” Yu Shi Lan looked at the broken roof on the second floor and somewhat understood why this building was abandoned. The person who used it might have feel that it was really inconvenient.

She sighed in her heart.

Thankfully, there was one unused empty room with the roof intact on the side. This should be the second bedroom and whoever rented this resort house didn’t use it.

There was not even any bedding here.

“Meow.” <It’s so clean.>

So clean that no resources could be found.

Xiao Mao wanted to jump out, but Yu Shi Lan held her back and said, “There’s no need to check any further. You wouldn’t be able to find anything.”

“Meow.” <Ok, ok.>

“Since we have decided on this place, let’s check the port and see if there’s any container that brought jade over,” Yu Shi Lan said and walked out.

Xiao Mao didn’t understand. “Meow?” <Aren’t jade very common in this country? You can easily found them in the jewelries store like before.>

There was no need to go to the sea, right?

“While it’s indeed common, but the mines are not in this city. It’s usually transported through the water or in other words, the port. If I want to find a batch of raw materials, the port is the best place.”

Yu Shi Lan didn’t know the location of these factories and she definitely couldn’t bother to look up.

Many people would not realize the importance of jade right now, but Yu Shi Lan knew very well that if they knew the jade could help protect themselves from having their mind eroded by the Demonic Qi, it would become the most popular thing after food.

The food’s importance could never be replaced because it’s the most essential resources for them to survive.

But without jade, they would not be able to last long.

And how much jade are there in the whole world?

Would it be enough to supply people from the entire Green Planet?

Yu Shi Lan didn’t know and didn’t have time to care.

Anyway, she didn’t plan to go to the base during the extreme cold temperature period. Because she knew very well that living in the base during this period of time would be the same as looking for troubles.

Many people were still unable to adapt to the changes.

And the laws in the base would still change again and again in order to accommodate the people there.

Yu Shi Lan didn’t want to experience the grievances by coming over and suffer.

It would be better for her to find a place and practice quietly for a period of time.

But before that, she had to find some jade.

“Meow.” <Let’s go.>

The human and cat went out again after determining the place to stay in the near future. Walking out, Yu Shi Lan could clearly feel that the temperature had dropped even further and her expression was not very good.

The cold temperature coupled with the outbreak of the mutated animals was what forced human beings to suffer so greatly.

Countless people died in this time period.

“Meow.” <There are people here, Miss>

Yu Shi Lan saw the trucks outside and the people wearing military uniform walking around. She looked at the large boxes and understood that the military should be securing the resources before the content spoiled.

But with them around, how could she sneak in and find some jade?

“Who’s there?” A voice came from the side and Yu Shi Lan quickly raised her head and saw a soldier pointing his gun in her direction while standing on top of a large box.
