The Villain's Face Slapping Counterattack-Chapter 79.2
Chapter 79.2
Face-Slapping the genius from another world (5.2)
Editor: chestnutwhale
The starlight was dim, and dark clouds began to gather in the sky. In the pitch-black night, Zhou Xu thought of a scene in a certain world where he’d been bitten to death by wolves. At that time, he had also been afraid, but he hadn’t been in control of his own body.
Now that he could control his own actions, Zhou Xu would definitely not allow himself to meet such a mishap and die an early death.
Suddenly his body shivered. Zhou Xu knew that he was being targeted by some kind of ferocious beast.
He couldn’t see anything, but the ferocious beasts could see him. In this situation, Zhou Xu could only move forward in a S-shape. That way, the ferocious beasts could not easily catch him.
Suddenly, a roar sounded. Zhou Xu knew that he was, once again, being targeted by a wolf. And the biggest problem with wolves was that they moved in groups.
Having no weapons for protection on him, Zhou Xu needed to find a place to hide.
In the pitch-black night, Zhou Xu continued to walk in an S-shaped route. Behind him was a group of wolves, their eyes glowing with faint green light.
The wolf’s howl sounded sorrowful and miserable. It was as if they had not eaten for a long time, and the sound was full of hunger.
Continuing to run forward, Zhou Xu seemed to see a bit of light in the distance. It should be the bonfire of the village. Great. He only needed to persevere for another 20 minutes and he should be able to arrive at the village.
Having a little bit of light, Zhou Xu ran more steadily. However, he didn’t expect that the area ahead was very moist and covered with moss. It was very slippery to step on, so in a moment of carelessness, Zhou Xu slipped.
The moment Zhou Xu fell down, the pack leader had already flown out, with the target being Zhou Xu’s neck.
Staying in the same position as when he had fallen, Zhou Xu put down his injured foot and kicked his other foot, hitting the head of the flying wolf.
The wolf leader fell to one side and whined. The rest of the wolves who had wanted to come up were stopped by Zhou Xu in this way, and they didn’t dare to move forward for a while. However, Zhou Xu knew that he could not escape again in this fashion. If there was indeed any solution, it would be to beg for the protection of the Eagle God.
Finally, the wolf leader slowly stood up while swaying. Zhou Xu also supported himself on a short tree beside him to stand up.
The atmosphere stopped still, one person and a group of wolves confronted in the forest.
The wolf leader let out a wolf howl, and Zhou Xu knew they were about to start attacking.
Leaning against the tree, Zhou Xu held a branch in his hand which he had grabbed when he fell down.
They were coming, covering the left front, right front as well as straight ahead. Zhou Xu could deal with two at the same time, but three would be very difficult.
He swung the branch, and the wolves’ blood-curdling screech cut through the dark night.
But Zhou Xu did not feel the awaited pain. Instead, he had an extra person behind him.
“You’re not hurt, are you? I’ve been looking for you for a long time.” Yan He said.
“I’m good, but what do we do now?”
Because of Yan He appearance, the group of wolves stopped moving once again. However, they were unexpectedly retreating, one step at a time.
“They are very scared of me. The wolves of this forest are all scared of me. Don’t worry, we only need to stand here.”
Zhou Xu was speechless, thinking to himself, this could also work?
But the truth was that the wolves retreated a little, with their heads still bowed, looking as if they were mortals seeing gods, both worshipping and scared.
It was only when the pack of wolves had completely scattered that Yan He had the opportunity to take out his flint and light the small torch he carried with him.
Because these portable torches were very small, the light brought out was faint, like a modern candle, and barely allowed one to see the path.
“Alright, let’s go. Zhou Yang came as well, and he’s also very worried about you.” Yan He said after getting the torch ready.
Zhou Xu tried to walk, but his foot was sprained too strongly, and could not get off the ground at all for a while. It hurt when he moved.
Only then did Yan He notice Zhou Xu’s foot. “What happened to your foot?”
“Sprained it, it’s best not to touch it at the moment. That’s why,” Zhou Xu said as he smiled, “you should carry me.”
“Okay.” Yan He answered very straightforwardly.
Lying on Yan He’s back, Zhou Xu could feel the warmth of his body. This kind of feeling was a very good one, and very familiar at that.
A scene flashed in his mind, and Zhou Xu suddenly froze.
It was a scene from when he was a child. He had been ignorant and stubbornly wanted to go on the slide. That slide was actually very high and only open to children over ten years old. How old had Zhou Xu been at the time?
Zhou Xu didn’t remember, but he must have been under that age, because in this scene his mother immediately shot down his request to play on the slide.
In the end, Zhou Xu did not listen and still climbed the high slide. However, when he went down, his momentum was too strong, and Zhou Xu had to run for several steps, causing him to accidentally sprain his foot.
Yes, when his foot got sprained, it hurt a lot. Just like the sharp pain he felt from his ankle when he fell a moment ago.
In the previous world, he had also sprained it, and at that time he’d thought that the pain was worse than being stabbed in the stomach with a knife.
At that time he hadn’t recalled the real world, but this time he remembered.
The Zhou Xu from the real world was carried by a half-grown child.
That boy, seeing his injured self, gently squatted down in front of him and patted himself on the back. He said, “Xiao Xu, come here, I’ll carry you.”
His voice was very nice to hear, and Zhou Xu felt for sure this voice would be etched in his mind, but why had he forgotten about this man?
But now he remembered, and also recalled the appearance of this brother when he was young: very handsome. Although still a little young and immature, he was still vaguely aware of what he had looked like when he had passed through space.
Zhou Xu then concluded that he was his lover.
“What are you thinking about?”
A voice rang out, interrupting Zhou Xu’s thoughts.
“Nothing.” Zhou Xu said.
After saying that Zhou Xu deliberately blew air at Yan He’s ear, the implicit provocation was evident.
Yan He shivered and almost threw Zhou Xu down. However his trembling made Zhou Xu’s injured ankle touch a tree on the side. The pain almost made Zhou Xu cry.
Taking in a breath of cold air, Zhou Xu endured. He hated the pain, but even more so, he hated having his tears seen by others.
But suddenly it occurred to him that no one could see in such a dark night. So the tears in Zhou Xu’s eyes fell straight down. It really hurt too much.
However Zhou Xu could not say anything, it was because he provoked Yan He that he suddenly trembled, thus making his feet touch the tree.
With no other alternatives, Zhou Xu could only say, “Walk more steadily.”
“Okay.”
Yan He continued walking with Zhou Xu on his back. The dark clouds were increasing, the wind was picking up, and looking to the left, he could still see the occasional lightning flashing by.
“I need to speed up, it’ll rain soon.” Yan He gently patted Zhou Xu’s ass once.
“I understand.”
After that, Yan He carried Zhou Xu on his back as he raced down the road he was very familiar with..
The wind grew stronger, the humidity increased, and occasionally a few drops of rain fell on Zhou Xu and Yan He’s heads. Yan He ran even faster when he felt it.
Finally, before the rain fell, Yan He returned to his house.
As Yan He said, Zhou Yang was also there, and he looked very worried.
Hurrying to put Zhou Xu on the bed, Yan He said to Zhou Yang, “His foot is injured.”
Zhou Yang walked over and looked at Zhou Xu’s swollen ankle and said, “What’s wrong?”
“It’s sprained. Straighten the bone for me first, it’ll go down on its own, don’t worry.”
“Understood.”
Yan He was also watching on the side. Zhou Xu’s ankle had begun to become purple and it seemed a bit serious.
With a gaze as if he couldn’t bear it, Zhou Yang glanced at Zhou Xu’s feet, and finally put it back with one hard tug.
Zhou Xu bit his lower lip, drawing blood. The pain made him sweat all over. His eyes were red. He asked Zhou Yang, “Is it over?”
Zhou Yang nodded and then answered, “It’s done. Now, you have to rest properly. This is medicine for swelling. Put it on.”
“Apply it for me.” Zhou Xu really didn’t want to move, it hurt too much.
“Okay.”
Just like this, Zhou Yang carefully applied the herbs on Zhou Xu, and when everything was done, he and Zhou Xu both breathed a sigh of relief.
“What have you been doing? I haven’t seen you all afternoon, and I was worried when Yan He went to find me. How can you be so old and still cause trouble?” It was only then that Zhou Yang started to rebuke Zhou Xu.
Laughing lightly, Zhou Xu discovered that no matter which world, Zhou Yang had a life full of worries, and most of his targets of worry were himself.
“I went to the mountains to look for wild wheat. If we can grow it on our own, we won’t be afraid of winter and running out of food from now on.”
Yan He interjected at this point, “We’ve never been afraid of running out of food. So long as I go out hunting, I will never come back empty-handed.”
Zhou Yang also nodded.
Zhou Xu glared at Yan He, who froze and did not utter a word.
“This is because our bodies will get sick easily if we only eat meat for a long time. By the way, Ge, in the future, you can also add some proper meat to your diet. Either stewed meat or broth is fine.”
After Zhou Yang heard it, he questioned in detail, “Is there anything to pay attention to?”
“There is.” Zhou Xu gave Zhou Yang a lot of lectures on nutrition, including how to staunch bleeding and various other medical knowledge. Listening, Zhou Yang seemed to have entered a new world.
While Zhou Xu and Zhou Yang were discussing medical matters on one side, Yan He made some food for Zhou Xu.
When Zhou Xu finished eating, he continued to teach Zhou Yang. Suddenly there was a fierce banging on the door behind them. Due to the heavy wind and rain, the three hadn’t initially noticed it.
Upon opening the door, Zhou Xu found out that the visitor was not a stranger, but instead it was Ruan Shijin, the protagonist of this world.
“What’s the matter?”
“Yan He, bad news, the leader….the leader died.”
