Chapter 160

The next morning, Zhou Yu heard someone calling him from downstairs.

After getting dressed and going down, he saw Leng Yuhang sitting there.

Zhou Yu laughed and cursed, "You brat, so early, are you that eager?"

Leng Yuhang chuckled and said, "Naturally. How long has it been since I last tasted meat? How could I not be eager?"

Zhou Yu said, "Don't rush, let me grab a bite to eat first."

Leng Yuhang nodded and waited quietly.

Half an hour later, Leng Yuhang and Zhou Yu got into the car and set off.

On the way up the mountain, Leng Yuhang asked, "Seriously, Xiao Yu, how much destructive power do the electric arcs you discharge actually have?"

Zhou Yu shook his head and said, "I'm not too sure either, I've never tested it, and you never let me try on you."

Leng Yuhang scolded, "Do you take me for a fool? Why don't you test it on your wife?"

Zhou Yu replied, "For you to say that proves you are truly a fool. A wife is one's own wife, can you test it on her? A brother is someone else's husband after all, so if you test it, you just test it."

Leng Yuhang cursed, "Get lost, get as far away from me as you can."

Zhou Yu laughed heartily.

After walking a bit further, Leng Yuhang said, "We've been driving for so long, why haven't we seen any living creatures?"

Zhou Yu said, "Have some patience."

Leng Yuhang didn't speak.

After a little while, Zhou Yu spoke up first this time, "Wait, something isn't right."

Leng Yuhang said, "Indeed something is wrong. There are animal footprints on the ground, but they're very messy, and the surroundings are quiet to a chilling degree."

Zhou Yu lowered his voice and said, "Get our gear out, and keep an eye on the surroundings."

As he spoke, Zhou Yu placed the Daxia Longque saber from the back seat onto the dashboard, and Leng Yuhang also placed the iron rod from beside the car door onto the dashboard.

Just as Leng Yuhang put the iron rod down, a dark shadow flashed right past his eyes.

Leng Yuhang blinked hard and asked, "Xiao Yu, did you just see a shadow?"

Zhou Yu said, "Stop the car. I don't know what it is, but whatever it is, it shouldn't be moving this fast. It seems it must have mutated."

Leng Yuhang grinned and said, "Damn it, I wonder if mutated meat tastes good."

Hearing this, Zhou Yu was stunned for a moment, then said with helpless exasperation, "When the hell did you turn into a foodie? Never mind whether it tastes good or not, we might not even be able to beat it."

Leng Yuhang retorted, "Care whatever it is, it may be fast, but I'm not slow either."

Zhou Yu shook his head in resignation and said, "Since you want to eat it so badly, get out of the car."

With that, he stepped out of the vehicle.

Leng Yuhang followed him out.

Outside, an unchanging silence hung in the air. Zhou Yu whispered, "Be careful, I have a feeling we're being watched."

Leng Yuhang whispered back, "Me too."

The two of them slowly crept toward the front of the car.

Before they even reached the hood, a dark shadow lunged straight at Zhou Yu's chest.

Zhou Yu hurriedly used the Daxia Longque to block it. With a sharp crackle, the dark shadow bounced away instantly and landed on the ground.

Zhou Yu was knocked back a step by the impact.

When Zhou Yu looked at that mass of shadow, he was utterly shocked.

What on earth was this? A squirrel as large as a German Shepherd?

Hearing the commotion, Leng Yuhang hurried over, and when he saw the dark shadow, he was stunned as well.

Then he asked in a low voice, "Is this a squirrel?"

Zhou Yu said, "I have no idea. It should be a squirrel, I suppose."

Leng Yuhang said, "I'll take the lead attack, you intercept."

With that, he rushed forward wielding his iron rod. Zhou Yu also raised his saber in front of him and charged out in a slashing stance.
