Dark Blood Age

Chapter 367: Chapter 367 The Masked Man Uncle

The fight lasted for the whole night, so Chu Yunsheng did not sleep for the entire evening. He tightened his tattered cotton clothes and opened the door to take a deep breath.

Since the dark age began, despite the fact that the number of human beings have plummeted, the air quality has risen tremendously. Although he didn’t understand what the “negative ions” that had been repeatedly emphasized by the housing developers were in the past, his nose intuitively told him that the fresh air was always refreshing.

Having spat out the sour gas that was caused by the fruits in his stomach, Chu Yunsheng did not feel tired at all. This was not that with his full support last night, the recovery of his insect body had great progress. It was just the side effect of simply staying up too late.

The hazy shimmer still has not appeared in the sky, so not many people were active at this time, let alone animals. There were only some Lamp Plants people whispering at each other secretly in the tall grass.

Chu Yunsheng walked around the simple thatched house that was built in one day while thinking how much longer it would take him to completely reverse the situation of the three forces inside his body.

It would probably be much easier for him to leave his place after he restored his energy. Chu Yunsheng thought. However, he did not think that everything would follow his plan.

Since three forces began to fight each other inside his body, this was the first time Chu Yunsheng wanted to deal with this problem seriously. Using earth elemental energy was a good idea. However, the security patrolling unit did not have the supply of the energy block. He himself also could not absorb earth elemental energy from the air, unless he could make some talismans. But making talismans required energy, however, the energy he cultivated would always be consumed by three forces, so he could not make any.

That was the reason why he chose to help his insect’s body to fight the bow and the book. The decision was made very carefully. Helping his insect’s body was the fastest way to solve his problem at the moment.

When his insect’s body was fully recovered, he would be able to summon it outside his body and separate it from the rest of the two forces. If he chose to help the book to suppress the shattered insect’s body, not only would it not eliminate the problem, but it would only cause this terrible situation to last even longer. Not to mention that he had a bow that could make him lose his mind. It was like a “bomb” that could explode at any time.

While thinking, Chu Yunsheng slowly and inadvertently walked away from his house and walked towards the old man’s house.

Suddenly, he heard someone whispering in a corner not far from him. He did not plan to listen to other people’s talk. When he realized that he had left his house, he immediately turned around and wanted to return to his house again.

“Sis, you already made 20 of them. That’s enough… Besides, that masked man uncle will not be able to eat this many ice cubes in one day…” Chu Yunsheng did not want to hear it, but his sensitive ears still caught a little girl’s voice.

‘Ice cube?’ Chu Yunsheng suddenly stopped. He remembered that there was indeed a bowl with several ice cubes outside his house. Originally he thought that it was the old man who prepared it for him, since the old man always wanted him to look after him.

“Sis, do you know why he likes to eat ice cubes? Do the masked men change their hobbies? It is very weird.” the little girl carried on asking.

This time Chu Yunsheng was sure that they were talking about him. Chu Yunsheng didn’t like to receive something for no reason. Especially when he made his decision that he didn’t want to establish any new relationship with strangers. So he didn’t want to owe anyone. Even if it was just some worthless ice cubes.

However, it did not take him too long to think about how to pay them back. He just simply thought that giving them some food tomorrow would do it. The ordinary food that the old man exchanged for him using the fruits he had still had two-third left. He also had a food ration from the security patrol unit. So he didn’t mind giving out some of his food.

“Who is there?! Sis, someone is behind the wall, quick, move me into the house!” the little girl was startled all of sudden. She seemed to have heard the noise that Chu Yunsheng made when he began to move again.

Then, after a series of panic footsteps, Chu Yunsheng saw a person holding a thing that resembles a flower pot, running around the wall and running towards him in panic.

“Sis.. sis… wrong direction!” The little girl’s voice was made by a strange “plant” in the flower pot.

“…..” The person immediately stopped and quickly turned around and wanted to run back.

“It’s too late now, sis, he saw me. Let me use my magic to confuse him.” This time Chu Yunsheng saw it very clearly. It was a plant with a little girl’s face.

“What you saw was just an illusion… illusion… abracadabra… illusions…” The little girl was constantly waving her leaves while murmuring something. Soon, there were some small and dim yellow halos that slowly flew towards Chu Yunsheng. Compared to the light cast out by the lamp plants, her light was nothing.

Chu Yunsheng quickly stepped back. He was not scared of the light. However, he didn’t want the thing that happened to the flower fairy to happen to this girl again.

“Huh? How can you still stay awake? I clearly made an illusion of a big lollipop…” The little girl was disappointed when she saw Chu Yunsheng just quietly stood there unaffected.

The girl who was not able to speak seemed to have realized that it was Chu Yunsheng, so she immediately began to make hand signs just using one hand.

“Sis, he is that masked man uncle? Emmm… if it is him… okay… okay…” the little plant girl looked at her elder girl’s hand signs and then looked at Chu Yunsheng.

The mute girl nodded and then began to make hand signs to Chu Yunsheng. Unfortunately, Chu Yunsheng couldn’t understand any hand signs. He was just a fake mute, so he shook his head and took out two pieces of dried food from his clothes.

The mute girl shook her hand, refused to take it, and then she carried on making hand signs while smiling at Chu Yunsheng.

“Masked man uncle, my sis said that we are neighbors, we should help each other.” the little plant girl looked at the hand signs and translated. Then she suddenly asked, “uncle, you are not going to tell other people about this, right?”

…

Chu Yunsheng didn’t want to have too much contact with them, so he still put the food in front of the mute girl, and left before the shimmer appeared. He went back to the thatched house to rest for a little bit. When he got up, he heard Old Six was shouting his name at the door.

“Commander wants to see you.” Old Six wiped off the dew on his face and said while panting. It seemed like he was running all the way to his house earlier.

Chu Yunsheng immediately began to pack his stuff, and put on the mask and the uniform that Old six had brought to him. He quickly washed his hair, made himself look energetic and strong. Hopefully, he would be able to join the food search units after he saw the commander, and when he got outside the forest, with his speed, he believed that no one was able to catch up with him.

Then, both men began to trot toward the barrack. But on the way, they encountered Old Sun who was humming a song all the way from the barrack.

“Something just came up, the Senior Supervisor left the barrack already.” Old Sun said while carefully taking out a pack of authentic White Sand branded cigarettes from his pocket. He took out one cigarette, split it in half and passed them to Chu Yunsheng and Old Six. The Senior Supervisor he was talking about was the Black Armor Senior Supervisor, who was also the commander of the masked man army.

“Boss, where did you get this stuff?” looking at the slightly yellow cigarette paper, Old Six said with envy.

“Why do you need to know.” Old Sun carefully used a plastic bag to wrap the rest of cigarettes and then said, “Old Seventeen, don’t worry, if you stay here long enough, you will understand that our Senior Supervisor is just like that. He will not stay in one place for a long time. But he will definitely see you in two days.”

Old Six exhaled cigarette smoke and smirked, “Old Seventeen, I bet our Senior Supervisor definitely went to see the ‘temptress’. She used to be the most beautiful girl in our Star Sand city… Wait a second… boss, don’t tell me that you gave the sanitary cotton that Xu Big Head gave to you to the Senior Supervisor? If your wife knew about this… she definitely gonna smack your ass…”

Old Sun instantly kicked Old Six’s ass and cursed, “you little fucker, what did you say? Motherfucker, do you think this pack of cigarettes just fell down from the sky?”

Old Six wasn’t angry at all. Instead, he quickly got up and said, “then, I have to thank the temptress. Otherwise, why was the Senior Supervisor willing to give this baby out?… Sigh… speaking of this temptress. It is said that our ruler was so angry at her that she kidnapped her from the ruler of the eastern force. She even wanted to kill her.

But no one expected that she was even able to attract our ruler… motherfucker. I don’t really understand this woman and woman thing, like how…

Now, our ruler has just stopped showing up, she immediately began to seduce our Senior Supervisor. She is exactly the definition of femme fatale!

But then again, boss, I have heard that this temptress has some special ability… many higher-ups secretly saying that before they die they want to sleep with her once. Is that true?”

“How the fuck do I know, I have never slept with her.” Old Sun said with disdain.
