Chapter 300: Arrive at Bingcheng City (2)
Rip!
The tent was pulled open.
BB hurriedly jumped in. “Sir!”
Chen Yu, who was in his sleeping bag, raised his head for the third time. “It’s your turn again this time? The stroller won’t work.”
“Eh?”
“What are you doing here?”
“Sir… Sir! There’s a situation!” BB pointed to the west. “Listen.”
Chen Yu’s expression froze. He immediately turned over and lowered his head, pressing his ears to the ground. As expected, he heard a series of muffled sounds.
“This is… a herd of beasts?”
“Yes.” BB nodded solemnly. “A total of 143 beasts.”
Chen Yu: “…How many males? How many females?”
BB turned her head and looked through. “En, they don’t seem to differentiate between males and females.”
Chen Yu: “…Awesome.”
He got up and put on his coat. Chen Yu carried BB and rushed out of the tent. He found the tallest tree and climbed up, looking in the direction of the sound.
In the dark, his vision was severely affected.
However, Chen Yu’s vision was already several times better than normal people’s. It was blurry, and he could see the approaching shadows in the distance.
“It’s a herd of beasts, but… it doesn’t seem to be aiming at us.”
“Okay.” BB nodded. “The angle is 11 degrees off.”
“Then don’t run. Just hide here.”
After saying that, Chen Yu jumped down from the tree crown and growled, “Don’t sleep anymore. There’s a herd of beasts.”
After saying that, Ma Li and Ma Yan, who hadn’t slept, immediately rushed out in full gear.
As for Chen Siwen’s tent, there was no movement.
“Brother Yu? There’s a herd of beasts? How big is the herd?”
“Shh!”
Making a silent gesture, Chen Yu didn’t reply.
He went into the tent in the middle and saw Chen Siwen sleeping soundly.
“Hey, the exotic beasts are here.”
Chen Siwen: “…”
Chen Yu: “You’re so ugly.”
Chen Siwen’s eyelids struggled hard. They trembled for half a second, but she still couldn’t open them. “…”
“I’ll light a fire on her buttocks. Let’s see if she can get up,” Ma Li came forward and suggested.
“I want to light a fire on your buttocks.”
“Sure, let’s get some heat from the friction, shall we?”
“Scram, scram, scram…”
After pushing Ma Li away, Chen Yu brought everyone to the left and right of the tent. He lowered his voice and said, “Don’t bother about her for now. The beast horde isn’t coming for us. Don’t make a sound and wait for them to come over on their own.”
“Are the beasts chasing someone?” Ma Li asked.
“No.” Chen Yu shook his head. “There’s nothing in front of the beasts.”
“Then what’s chasing behind them?”
“Exotic beasts have no emotions at all. Would they be chased?” Chen Yu looked Ma Li up and down. “Are you joking around here?”
“That’s not right.” Ma Li took off Ma Yan’s glasses and put them on her face. She pushed the frames of her glasses with a serious expression. “Exotic beasts in the wild don’t travel in a large area.”
“Is that so?” Chen Yu was stunned.
“Mm. Exotic beasts come from the spatial rift. Basically, they just stay where they are and don’t move. Even if they wander, they won’t go far.”
Hearing that, Chen Yu thought of the recent series of changes, and the uneasiness in his heart grew stronger and stronger.
Rumble…
As time passed, the crowd began to tremble.
“They’re coming.” Chen Yu pressed down on Ma Li’s head, which was looking around. “Don’t make a sound! be quiet.”
“Hu…”
“Snore…”
“F*ck, who’s snoring?”
Ma Li: “Your sister.”
Chen Yu: “It’s fine. The snoring isn’t loud, so the exotic beasts can’t hear it.”
Ka ka…
Bang.
Ma Li: “It’s your sister who’s grinding her teeth and farting. This time, they can hear it.”
Chen Yu: “…”
Ma Yan was surprised. “It’s so lively when your sister sleeps.”
“Shut up!”
After patting Ma Li on the head, Chen Yu bent down and slipped into Chen Siwen’s tent.
Crack crack crack…
The sound of a woman grinding her teeth was actually so ear-piercing in the quiet night.
“Hey? Are you f*cking awake? When did you feel so heavily?”
“…” Chen Siwen still did not move.
“Then don’t blame me.”
Seeing that the herd of beasts was getting closer and closer, Chen Yu was a little anxious. He looked around and did not find any usable cloth. He took off his socks and prepared to stuff them into Chen Siwen’s mouth.
However, when he brought them to her mouth, he felt that he should not be such a dog.
Therefore, he opened his backpack and found a new pair of socks that he had not worn before. He tore open the packaging and stuffed them into Chen Siwen’s mouth.
Ka…
The grinding noise instantly disappeared.
“Done.”
BB, who was lying on Chen Yu’s back, was surprised. “So human socks can be used in this way…”
“Huh?” Chen Yu turned around in confusion. “What did you say?”
“Nothing.”
“Okay, don’t say anything.”
“Okay.” BB nodded obediently.
After leaving the tent, Chen Yu lay down beside the two of them again and secretly observed the black shadow outside the dense forest.
“What a huge herd of beasts.” Ma Li narrowed her eyes.
“There are at least a hundred of them.” Ma Yan stuck her head out. “It’s a bit like the night of a hundred ghosts.”
“We’re almost there.” Seeing the herd of beasts running further and further away, Chen Yu couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief.
There were more than a hundred and forty exotic beasts, and there was even a Level 5 among them. It was obviously not something that Chen Yu and the others could deal with.
At the moment, the bullets in the ‘National Treasure Revolver’ had yet to be recovered. If there was no conflict, then there wouldn’t be any conflict.
“Awoo!”
However…
Just as the beast horde was about to leave, a howl that couldn’t be distinguished between a dog’s howl and a wolf’s howl came from the express delivery camp, clearly cutting through the night sky.
Over a hundred exotic beasts stopped running at the same time.
…Pa!
After a moment of silence, Chen Yu held his forehead in pain.
Rumble…
The beast horde instantly ‘boiled’ and charged toward the Zhongtong Express Delivery camp.
Following that, the express delivery team and the beast horde engaged in a fierce battle.
Boom!
Duang!
Dong! Dong! Dong…
Flames soared into the sky.
The ground split open.
The sounds of gunfire, cannons, explosions, martial arts resonance… The sounds didn’t stop for a long time.
“It’s… It’s that dog.” Ma Li was dumbstruck. “That husky lured the exotic beasts here.”
“I told you that huskies can’t be kept!”
Chen Yu pulled out the sharp sword on BB’s head and prepared to charge over. But just as he got up, he stopped again.
“No, I can’t go over.”
Ma Li turned her head. “Aren’t we going?”
Chen Yu spoke quickly, he didn’t stop talking. “No, he’s a Level 6 big shot. It’s only a matter of time before he finishes off the beast horde. Let’s all just lie down obediently. If I go over, that bearded man will definitely be on me again. I’ll stay far away this time. Let’s see who else he can blame. You’ve all seen it this time. It has nothing to do with me. What did I say? Something will happen if we’re in the middle of an express delivery…”
Ma Li: “Just how much resentment do you have…”
The battle between the human side and the beast side had reached a climax from the start.
Chen Yu lay in the dense forest to observe for half a minute, but he still felt that he couldn’t stay out of the battle. He turned around and instructed Ma Li and Ma Yan to guard the area, then rushed to the battlefield with his BB on his back.
In the battle, blood flowed like a river.
The beast carcasses lay on the ground layer by layer like cut rice.
Chen Yu made a circle around the camp and casually killed a few lone exotic beasts, then prepared to turn around and retreat because he was no longer needed at the scene.
In the center of the camp, the bearded man seemed to be in a frenzy. He was on a killing spree. There were over a hundred earth spikes surrounding his body. They were like flexible tentacles, constantly harvesting the lives of the exotic beasts nearby.
He had actually activated peerless!
“…Awesome.”
He silently gave a thumbs up, and Chen Yu slipped away.
Returning to the front of the tent, Chen Yu inserted his longsword back. He yawned and waved his hand, saying, “Alright, go to sleep.”
“Over at the camp…” Ma Li hesitated.
“The exotic beasts are quite pitiful. They won’t be able to hold on much longer.”
Ma Li: “…”
Putting down the BB on his back, Chen Yu was the first to walk into Chen Siwen’s tent, trying to find his socks.
But when he opened Chen Siwen’s mouth, he found that there was only a piece of wool stuck in her front teeth.
Chen Yu: “…”
BB: “…”
Chen Yu: “…You can still stuff your teeth with this?”
…
The next day, the sun was shining brightly.
The next day, the cloudy skies turned sunny.
Chen Siwen was still the last one to wake up.
She lazily sat up and stretched her crisp waist. When she opened her eyes, she saw Chen Yu, BB, Ma Li, and Ma Yan surrounding her and observing her.
“Oh?”
Chen Siwen immediately woke up and asked curiously, “Why are you all looking at me?”
“To see how long you can sleep for,” Chen Yu said.
“Ah… how long have I slept?”
She raised her wrist and looked at the Rolex. Ma Li said, “It’s 4:30 in the afternoon.”
Chen Siwen was shocked. “What?”
“You slept for 20 hours,” BB said worriedly. “Could there be a problem with your body?”
“I slept for so long?” Chen Siwen grabbed Ma Li’s wrist and looked at the time displayed on it seriously. “F*ck! I really slept for 20 hours? No… You guys are lying to me. The express delivery team leaves in the morning. It’s impossible for it to be afternoon now.”
“Come out and see for yourself.” Chen Yu grabbed Chen Siwen’s collar and brought her out of the tent, pointing to the front. “Look over there.”
Chen Siwen looked in the direction that Chen Yu was pointing at and slowly opened her mouth. “…Beast carcasses? There… There’s a herd of beasts coming?”
“They came last night. They stepped on your head and you didn’t wake up.” Chen Yu took out a can from his bag and threw it to the other party. “The convoy can’t leave now. There are no casualties, but the vehicle is badly damaged and is being repaired.”
“Then… Then should we stop here today?”
“I heard that it will be finished by noon tomorrow at the earliest.”
“…I regret coming out with you.”
“You deserve it.”
“I’ll come with you next time. I’m a dog.” Holding the can, Chen Siwen grumbled irritably. Then, she opened the zipper and saw the red lunch meat inside. “Hmm… I don’t feel very hungry.”
“Is that so? It looks like the yarn is filling you up.”
“Hmm?”
“Ha… It’s nothing. I’ll go to the camp and take a look. You take your time to eat.” Chen Yu scratched his ear and left awkwardly.
They arrived at the motorcade camp.
They saw that everyone was busy… except for a figure sitting on the roof of an off-road vehicle.
Bang — Clang.
He reached out his hand and nimbly climbed onto the roof of the car. Chen Yu sat beside the bearded man and handed him a cigarette. “Do you want to come? Harbin is strong.”
“…” The bearded man looked at the horizon in a daze.
“Facts speak louder than words.” Chen Yu stuffed the cigarette into his mouth and spread his hands. “Can you prove it now? It has nothing to do with me if anything happens to all of you. This time, I slept a few kilometers away. You can’t blame me, right?”
The bearded man: “…”
“It’s not easy to argue with me. If you still think that it’s because of me, then it’s because you’re not being fair to me. As the saying goes, you can’t get more than three things done. Anyway, if all of you find me money after Zhongtong, I won’t sit there anymore.”
“…” The bearded man hugged the dog corpse tightly in his arms, not saying a single word.
Chen Yu shot a glance at the bearded man. “This is… The dog was killed by an exotic beast?”
“I killed it.”
“Why?”
The bearded man’s voice was hoarse. “It’s not reliable.”
Chen Yu: “…”
“I’ve seen through it.” The bearded man stood up and faced the north wind. He raised his head and roared, “This old man has seen through it!”
In the surrounding area, the busy martial artists raised their heads and looked at their captain before continuing with their work.
“I’ve seen through it, brat.” The bearded man turned around and stared at Chen Yu. “This is how the world works. No matter if it’s a woman, a man, or even an animal, there’s nothing that can be relied on!”
Chen Yu raised his hand. “Actually, you can try the golden hair or the border mule.”
“No! It’s useless!” The bearded man’s eyes were wide open and his face was slightly distorted. “I want to find someone reliable… someone reliable…”
“A cat?”
“A dog is a loyal subject, a cat is a treacherous subject. Even a dog would betray me, how can I have a cat?”
“Then… a snake?”
“A snake is cold-blooded.”
“A lizard?”
“A lizard is dirty.”
“A leopard?”
“I don’t want to look for animals!”
“…”
There was a long silence.
Chen Yu probed, “How about… a silicone doll?”
“…Okay!”
The bearded man’s eyes lit up. He was so excited that he burst out and gave Chen Yu’s shoulder a hard slap. “A doll is good! A doll is reliable!”
Kacha!
“Oh.” The change in the feel of the hand made the bearded man come back to his senses and quickly stopped. “You… are you okay?”
“I’m fine. “Chen Yu blew at the dust on his shoulder. “It’s just a broken collarbone.”
“I’m sorry, I was too excited just now.”
“It’s understandable. But I suggest you use a knife next time.” Chen Yu stretched his neck and pointed at his aorta. “Cut it from here. It’ll be so satisfying.”
The bearded man nodded repeatedly. “There will be a chance next time.”
Chen Yu said, “Okay.”
The whole process of repair was much faster than expected.
The convoy could set off again on the morning of the third day.
They arrived at the northeast, and even the largest city in the north — Bingcheng City, that evening.
What was said here was the size of the city.
The area of the city, which was more than 53,000 square kilometers, could fit half of the entire China.
However, the population there was pitifully small.
The wide city gates were sparsely populated by pedestrians and vehicles. The snow that had piled up into small hills by the roadside was also uncleaned.
Only the white city walls that were 30 to 40 meters tall could faintly display its former might.
“We’ve arrived at the Bingcheng City.”
The convoy stopped. The bearded man kicked open the bent car door and got out of the car to wave. “Those who need to unload the goods, those who need to go, go.”
The last few words he said were said as he was staring at Chen Yu.
Shrugging his shoulders, Chen Yu grabbed his bag and got out of the car. He shook hands with the bearded man. “Brother, from now on, we may never see each other again.”
“What? Are you going to die here?”
“…I mean, I’ll never look for you guys again.”
“Brother, if you say so.” The bearded man took out a stack of banknotes from his pocket and patted it in Chen Yu’s hand. “I’ll exempt you from the ticket.”
“Okay.”
Nodding, Chen Yu slowly retreated and cupped his hands. “No matter what, it’s fate that we met. I wish your company will go bankrupt soon.”
“You’re too kind.” The bearded man also cupped his hands. “I wish you a complete corpse.”
“Then I wish you a complete corpse in the wilderness.”
“I wish you a complete annihilation.”
“Goodbye forever!”
“Don’t.”
Ma Li said, “Why don’t you two get married?”
“Shut up, let’s go.” Chen Yu waved his hand, picked up BB, and led everyone into the magnificent Bingcheng City gates. “It’s too late anyway. Today, I’ll bring you guys to play with the Bingcheng City’s special features.”
“Special features? What special features?”
“It’s special — ‘color’.”
