In Imminent Danger; Yun Che’s Fussing

"Roarrr…"

"Bang bang bang…"

Outside the Southwest Base, piles of zombies madly launched themselves at a black off-road car. Zeng who was driving the car, had floored the accelerator, but the car still couldn't move an inch. Without other choices, Zeng turned his head and said to Xiu Jie, who was holding Chenchen tightly in the back seat out of fear, "You drive, and I will distract them. You don't stop, just keep driving. And turn left about 500 meters forward and go straight to the end. Our temporary command post is there."

"I, I…"

In the six months since the doomsday had come, Xiu Jie had been well protected. He hadn't even been out of the community much, let alone the base. Now they were surrounded by zombies; it would've been strange if he had not been scared.

"Put yourself together! It was you who insisted on bringing Chenchen out. It doesn't matter if we die, but what if Chenchen is killed? He's only three!"

Zeng couldn't care much about his identity as a superfunction possessor of light, now that the zombies outside had already started to smash the car with superfunctions. If they kept wasting time, all three of them would die here.

"Don't be afraid, Uncle Xiu, Chenchen will protect you!"

When Xiu Jie lowered his head, he just met Chenchen's eyes, who were looking up at him. Compared with him, Chenchen was a lot calmer, with no sign of fear on his face. Yun Che had already cultivated his courage.

"…Well, I won't let anything happen to you, Chenchen. Now climb into the passenger seat."

Was he not even as good as a child?

After a profound self-criticism, his fear died down a bit. Chenchen obediently climbed into the passenger seat and sat down. Seeing that Xiu Jie was also ready to climb forward, Zeng closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

"Bang…"

The car door was thrusted open. Before getting out of the car, Zeng threw out soil balls thickly to force the zombies back, and got off the car when there was a narrow gap.

"Swoosh…"

"Thanks, Chenchen!"

When he was about to close the car door, zombies' claws reached for him; when he was about to be injured, a dozen wood splinters flew out with a swoosh, and were precisely inserted into several zombies outside the car. Narrowly escaping the claws of zombies, Zeng thanked Chenchen while closing the car door, and began to fight the zombies on his own outside the car.

"Chenchen, you can't open the window, okay?"

Xiu Jie accidentally saw that Chenchen tried to open the car window when he twisted the key with his shaking hand; his heartbeat almost stopped in fright. He rushed over and grabbed him. He knew that Chenchen was a superfunction possessor of all attributes, but he was only level-2, while there were many level-3 zombies outside.

"I want to beat the bad guys; the bad guys are bullying Uncle Zeng."

Chenchen said firmly with his neck straightened up. Uncle had said that they could not leave their partners behind.

"Fuck, hurry up and drive the damn car!"

Just when Xiu Jie didn't know how to explain to Chenchen, he heard the rough roar of Zeng outside, who was facing a large number of zombies alone, cuts and bruise all over his body. But the zombies had been drawn away by him; if he drove off the car, Zeng would surely die. Xiu Jie gritted his teeth and decisively stepped on the accelerator with his hands clutching the steering wheel. He couldn't let anything happen to Chenchen.

"Bang bang…"

"Uncle Zeng…Uncle Xiu, stop the car, Uncle Zeng is left behind…"

The weight on the car was reduced, so it rushed out in an instant. Chenchen yelled vigorously out the window. He saw that Uncle Zeng was surrounded by bad guys and they had to rescue him.

"Sorry Chenchen, I can't…"

When he said this, Xiu Jie's face was soaked in tears. He knew that they shouldn't left Zeng behind, but if they stayed, they would die together. Zeng was right: it didn't matter if the two of them die, but not Chenchen. He was only three years old. At this moment, Xiu Jie regretted bringing Chenchen out badly; he should have taken him home by force even if he would've been hated.

"No, no… Wah wah…Uncle Xiu, go back…Uncle Zeng…"

Never having experienced anything like this before, Chenchen burst into tears. He had usually come out with Yun Che and other uncles. Under their protection, it had been impossible to be caught in such a situation. He was really scared now.

"Bang! Boom! …"

"Roarrr…"

Suddenly, two mighty tornados came their way, skirted around the car and swept behind them. At the same time, two huge mutant beasts rose into the air and flew across the top of the car. Xiu Jie was a little stunned and stopped the car unconsciously, and he heard Chenchen who had been crying suddenly shouted, "It's Uncle Wolf King, and Uncle Bear…"

"Knock knock!"

The next second, someone knocked on the window, and Xiu Jie unlocked the doors blankly. Zhou Zeyu pulled the car door open and pulled him down.

"Clap…"

"Who the hell allowed you to bring Chenchen out? I will skin you alive if anything happens to him!"

Zhou Zeyu gave Xiu Jie a slap that made him stagger, and had not been for the car behind him, he would have fallen onto the ground. And then grumpy roars followed. God knows how anxious they had been when they, at the temporary command post, had received Yu Wenqing's e-mail telling them that Xiu Jie might have brought Chenchen out of the base without telling anyone. Now with Che missing, if anything happened to Chenchen, their Peak would probably decline for good.

"It's okay, Chenchen, it's okay now…"

On the other side, Zhan Yafei carried Chenchen out of the car. Compared with Yun Yao and the others, Zhan Yafei was quite tough and rarely shed tears. But now she couldn't stop her tears as she held Chenchen in her arms, her hands shaking constantly.

"Sorry auntie."

As if realizing his fault, Chenchen stretched out his chubby arms and hugged her, apologizing with his choked voice.

"It's all right, you're safe, you're safe…"

Zhan Yafei hugged him tightly and murmured the same sentence repeatedly.

"Sorry, I'm sorry··"

On the other side of the car, Xiu Jie was also apologizing, while crying with his face covered in both hands. Zhou Zeyu really wanted to slap him to death. Just when he was about to shut him up, Ye Xingchen and the others brought Zeng back, who was heavily wounded with one breath left.

"How is he?"

Zhou Zeyu sounded exasperated. He had been up all night and now this; anyone would have been annoyed had they been in his shoes. Ye Xingchen shook his head with a gloomy face, "Badly injured. We have run out of spring water."

Normally, Yun Che would give them some spring water to be carried with against a rainy day if he didn't go on quests with them. But too many of them had been injured for too many times last night, so all the spring water in Meng Xu's space had been used up.

"Yafei, bring Chenchen here."

Zeng was from Chaoyang after all, so they couldn't just watch him die. Zhou Zeyu called as he recalled that Yun Che often taught Chenchen to store food by himself and so believed that there should be spring water in his space. Zhan Yafei carried Chenchen over to him.

"Chenchen, is there any spring water in your space that your uncle gave you?"

If they remembered correctly, Yun Che usually gave it him to be used as boiled water.

"Yes."

Sure enough, Chenchen nodded and took out a milk bottle filled with water out of thin air. At a moment like this, no one could care if there was a nipple to the bottle or not. Ye Xingchen asked Jiang Shang to help Zeng up and asked Wolf King to bend down for Zeng to lean his back against, and he held his head and put the bottle to his lips. "Drink it," he said to Zeng.

"Glug glug…"

Although Zeng was seriously injured, he was still conscious. He opened his mouth and drank half of the water in the bottle after he heard Ye Xingchen's words. Zhou Zeyu sullenly pushed Xiu Jie, who was still wiping tears, and said, "Come off it, it's your turn.

Damn, he had thought this fella pretty nice before today; at least he had been very gentle to Chechen, and when Chenchen had been injured, he had come to see him several times a day. He hadn't expected that…What an idiot he was, a light superfunction possessor that needed protection from others dared to bring Chenchen out without permission.

"Boo-hoo…h'm…"

Aware that it was all his fault, Xiu Jie didn't dare to cry anymore. He quickly wiped away his tears and knelt down beside Zeng to treat him. Thankfully, they had come in time, otherwise not only Zeng, but he and Chenchen would have been in great danger.

As though predicting that Xing Feng would resort to traffic cams, Fei Ye did not rush to leave Lijiang City, but deliberately took Yun Che around Lijiang City instead, captured by several traffic cams. And at last, he turned into an old highway through Lijiang City to Tongkang City, and planned to go Yunyang Province through Tongkang City, and then go further north from there.

Fei Ye's poison was indeed powerful. Yun Che kept trying to condense his superfunction along the way, and to circulate the true qi in his body to break through the acupoints, but nothing happened until…

"I want to use the toilet."

Yun Che was both a superfunction possessor and a cultivator, therefore his metabolism was very slow, almost none. So, he had never thought of using the pretext of nature's call to escape, until he sensed an urge to urinate.

"Need my help?"

Fei Ye, who was controlling the steering wheel, took a look at Yun Che, while using his mental power to create toxins that spread out of the car window. Before their car got near the zombies, they collapsed to the ground at a noticeably high speed. What a master of toxins.

"I want to shit; do you want to squeeze it out for me?"

If he didn't mind it being disgusting, nor did Yun Che. He would say it in a most disgusting way, and he just didn't believe that he would really squeeze that for him.

"Urgh…"

Thankfully Fei Ye was really disgusted by him. After a short pause of speechlessness, he stopped the car and picked up a metal box from the back seat, took out the handcuffs and shackles inside it, and put it on Yun Che. To make it worse, he took out something like a collar to put it around his neck, and even with a rope tied to it.

"I'm not a freaking fan of SM!"

Yun Che's face turn black. What a freaking pervert! Was he treating him like a pet?

"Then you have to hold it back."

Fei Ye, who was holding the collar, did not force him to put it on, but just looked at him with a half smile, which was clearly saying that Yun Che had only two choices, either to let him help him, or to put the collar on. Yun Che stared at him fiercely for quite a while before he said through gritted teeth, "I can't. Then I have to shit in your car."

And then Yun Che began to making noise with his nose, as if he was really trying to shit.

"You're so fucking dirty. Where is your aesthetics? Don't, no, hold it back."

Fei Ye was really taken aback. He was not obsessive about cleanliness, but he didn't like anything ugly. Yun Che was the most perfect prey in his fancy. If he really got himself covered with his own shit, then his fun would surely be greatly reduced. Besides, now they were on the old highway and there was no better car for them to replace this one with; he didn't want to smell feces and urine all the way to the capital.

"Faster!"

Having spent a day and a night together with him, Yun Che kind of had the measure of his temperament, and he bet that he would not allow the work he admired to be stained, although it was really nasty to compare himself to a work. But in order to seize the chance to escape, Yun Che didn't care. It turned out that he had bet right because Fei Ye's expression had changed drastically.
