Chapter 16: CH 16

Chapter 16: Bright Eyes

Zhou Yu walked past Wu Yun and shot him a cold glare, “Who just said they would shoot me if I became infested with parasites?”

“Fine, fine… I’m sorry!” Wu Yun raised his arms and followed behind Zhou Yu, “They’re just mandatory procedures. Didn’t you also learn them when you received training?”

“Relax, by the time you get bitten by some D rank organism, I will abide by the same mandatory procedures and shoot you too.”

After five minutes, Li Qian was still unwilling to stand up, but everyone still pushed forward.

While he was walking, Zhou Yu looked at the little guy hanging at his waist. As if it had really been hurt, it remained huddled inside and didn’t move.

Zhou Yu poked it with his finger, and quietly said, “Did it suffocate?”

Just as his words left his mouth, the little thing turned its head his way from within the silk scarf and looked at Zhou Yu with an accusatory gaze, as if it was saying, “You hurt me, why didn’t you apologize?!”

Zhou Yu involuntarily smiled.

He suddenly recalled something from his childhood. There was a tall kid in his school who would always bully Zhou Qing. One day, Zhou Yu gave him a beating and on the next day, that tall kid had looked at Zhou Yu at school with the same gaze as that little thing.

Zhou Yu didn’t pay it any attention, he only continued walking.

“Zhou Yu, don’t you need it?” Wu Yun nodded at the loaded syringe.

“No,” Zhou Yu’s expression didn’t change.

“Alright then, no matter what we may come across, you better not be afraid. I have enough kids to take care of already, I’m afraid I can’t save you as well.”

“Just take care of yourself.”

The night wasn’t a suitable time for them to continue walking, and Li Qian and the others really did need to rest. If they pushed on, Zhou Qing would faint.

Li Qian and Han Li sat back to back. Li Qian’s arm just happened to slap onto Wu Yun’s face and was pushed aside by Wu Yun.

Although the usual Li Qian may act as if he disliked Wu Yun, but at a time like this, he still felt the safest beside a seasoned veteran like Wu Yun.

“Zhou Yu, did you know? I’ve never slept like this in the primitive forest before, being exposed to danger in the open.”

Wu Yun closed his eyes while talking to Zhou Yu, who was across from him.

“Don’t worry, if we meet anything dangerous, I won’t save you.”

“Hah?”

“Because being taken care of like a kid will hurt your ego. Compared to your life, it’s more important to you that you protect your ego,” Zhou Yu crossed his arms and closed his eyes as well.

“You should still try to protect my life.”

There was a temperature difference between day and night. Fortunately, the ancient trees were dense and retained the temperatures of daytime, so it wasn’t too cold.

Li Qian and Han Li were already huddled together.

Zhou Yu removed his outer clothing and used it to cover Zhou Qing. Zhou Qing had been overly exhausted and tensed up and had fallen into a deep sleep.

Just has Zhou Yu turned over, he squished that little thing under him.

Then Zhou Yu realized how laughable his thoughts had been. He was like a father holding his own kid and imagining their future.

Suddenly, the little thing naughtily stuck out its tongue and swiped it across Zhou Yu’s nose.

It was soft and tender, like when Zhou Yu had first touched it.

He knew he could have avoided it, but for some reason, when he looked into its eyes, he forgot all about it.

Zhou Yu let go.

The little thing was still tangled in the silk scarf, and they both fell onto Zhou Yu’s chest.

When Zhou Yu turned over, it also fell off. It struggled but wasn’t able to get out of the scarf.

Zhou Yu reached out and occasionally petted down the black fur on its back.

“Hrrn…” The little thing narrowed its eyes, then flopped over and showed its belly, as if it was saying, “touch me here, too”.

Zhou Yu couldn’t help but think of the husky he had once kept. Every time he showered it, it would flop down onto the ceramic tiles and show its belly. Its meaning was “give me a good rinse here as well.”

Zhou Yu used a finger to poke its belly, it unexpectedly let out a burp, then showed an unsatisfied expression to Zhou Yu.

This raised Zhou Yu’s spirits. He used his fingers to move about its small wings, and it also wobbled around happily.

“Hey, don’t play around too much that you forget to sleep,” Wu Yun opened his eyes to remind him.

“Yeah,” Zhou Yu make a gesture of ‘quiet’ to the little thing.

It didn’t understand what he meant and tilted its head to look at Zhou Yu. It kept using its back to push at Zhou Yu’s finger.

“It looks like it really likes your finger. Why don’t you try giving it your finger to suck on, maybe then it’ll sleep,” Wu Yun said sarcastically, then turned over.

Zhou Yu bopped it on its snoot, then cupped his palm over its back. It became docile and closed its wings, afraid of harming Zhou Yu. It really liked the temperature of Zhou Yu’s palm and let out a chirp, then it sucked on Zhou Yu’s index finger.

In that second, Zhou Yu tensed up. Just as he was about to withdraw this finger, he felt its tongue poke him, and carefully wrap around Zhou Yu’s finger, as if it was begging him to stay.

Just as Zhou Yu’s heart softened, a sharp pain came from his finger, he was a hundred percent sure that his finger had been bitten through the skin.

Zhou Yu wanted to take his finger back, but the following pleasant feeling that relaxed his mental state made him feel as if the pores of his body had opened up to welcome the oxygen in the air.

His heartbeat slowed to a gentle pace and his thoughts flowed into a warm and vast ocean.

What’s going on…? It must have bitten me… It must have bitten me… It’s sucking on my blood…

Gritting his teeth, Zhou Yu suddenly took his hand away. He held it under the moonlight to inspect it carefully, then once again but fiercely, but there truly wasn’t even a pinprick of a cut on his fingertip.

Just what was going on?

The little thing seemed to have gotten sleepy. With half its mouth open, its breathing gradually became steady.

Zhou Yu squinted and carefully pried open its mouth.

There was still nothing.

Maybe it could hide its teeth?

What kind of creature was it?

The little thing shifted a little. It seemed to feel a little cold and cuddled into Zhou Yu’s embrace.

That soft, warm, and weak feeling once again occupied Zhou Yu’s awareness.

It seemed to know well that this could soften Zhou Yu’s heart.

This was what was the most scary.

Zhou Yu fiddled with his fingers, there wasn’t any pain there at all. This made Zhou Yu start to doubt if the little thing’s saliva had some special kind of composition that could have a numbing effect. Of course, these were all Zhou Yu’s conjectures.

In the process of thinking, Zhou Yu eventually fell asleep.

At the same time, Zhou Qing was also well asleep.

Between hazy moments, he felt something gentle caressing his forehead, even his nose could pick up on a fresh and clean scent that caused him to relax.

Zhou Qing wanted to turn over, but he felt something tracing the curve of his brow bone, he suddenly opened his eyes, and abruptly realized that the face he had met by the lakeside appeared before him again.

Gasping in surprise, Zhou Qing’s pupils instantly enlarged.

The other put his finger to Zhou Qing’s lips, signaling him to stay quiet.

“There’s no need to speak, I know what you are saying.”

This voice sounded like that of the elves in “The Lord of the Rings” as it echoed inside Zhou Qing’s mind.

Zhou Qing looked into his eyes, it was as if his thoughts had entered another world.

He was curious about his appearance.

The other party smiled, Zhou Qing was unable to look away from the curve at the end of his brows and at the corner of his eyes.

Was this the charm of an S rank organism?

Zhou Qing was unable to control himself from staring at him.

He subconsciously asked in his mind, “What should I think about that has value?”

“Such as the nerves on these plants, or the manner in which they evolved, such as the embryos of plants, or the tumor in your brain, or… me.”

Zhou Qing opened his eyes wide and looked at the other person.

“Everything will get better. When you accept this world with the purest objectives, this world will repay your purity. Good night, Zhou Qing.”

In the blink of an eye, everything disappeared.

Zhou Qing raised his hand and lightly pounded at his heart.

Did that S rank organism really appear in front of him, or… did he only create a gentle fantasy for himself?

Just as Zhou Qing turned over, he suddenly realized that he seemed to be holding something in his palm.

He slowly opened up his fingers and discovered that it was a light blue fruit resembling colored glass.

His entire person shook.

He remembered that fruit. He had read over the limited information they had on it thousands of times.
