    The world's first crowdsourcing-driven asian bl novel translation community

    There are fifteen people in Li Xiaojun's party, they own four cars and an old military card.After leaving the orchard, the group headed north along the mountain road.

    It is only 200 kilometers from their hometown to the base in N City. According to their estimates, even if there is traffic congestion on the road, it will not be a problem to walk 70 to 80 kilometers in one night.Two hundred kilometers mere trifle , they will be able to reach the base the day after tomorrow.

    But after leaving the orchard, their luck was extremely bad.After walking five kilometers, the engine of the army card made a strange sound, and the body began to shake, and then the car shook back and forth twice and fell to the ground.

    Most of the supplies and fruits scavenged from the orchard were placed on the army card. When it lay down, the cars in front had to stop.A group of people cursed and got out of the car. Cao Qian clutched her belly and looked worried. She pushed Li Xiaojun, "What kind of broken car is this... Li Xiaojun, go and have a look."

    From leaving the orchard to now, Li Xiaojun's ears are full of accusations from his wife and parents-in-law.They accused Uncle and Aunt Li of being unkind, and accused Li Xiaojun of not being able to defend them.Especially Qianqian's scolding words one after another made his ears buzz.Even though he still restrained his emotions in front of Yue's relatives, he was a little tired of hearing it now.

    With a straight face, Li Xiaojun quickly walked to the front of the army card and opened the engine cover. As soon as the cover was opened, a puff of thick black smoke came out from inside.He took a flashlight and looked even worse: "The engine is smoking, there may be something wrong."

    As soon as the words fell, several relatives of the Yue family talked a lot. After a group of people stood in front of the military card and pointed fingers for a while, no one gave a decisive opinion.This group of people are used to having high-sighted eyes and low-handed skills. How can they know about car maintenance?After discussing for a while, everyone gave Li Xiaojun an order: "Xiaojun, this car is handed over to you. You have to fix it as soon as possible!"

    Li Xiaojun doesn't know much about cars, but he knows a little better than this group of people.He responded, and focused on turning on the engine with a flashlight in his mouth.

    This repair took only three hours. From sunset to moonlight, Li Xiaojun didn't drink a sip of water, and didn't sit down to rest for ten minutes.In order to save gasoline, others found a slightly open space beside the convoy and started a fire.

    The faces of a group of people were illuminated by the bonfire, and everyone's face was covered with oil and water, just like the chicken being roasted on the fire.There are many mosquitoes in the mountains, and they chatted while spraying mosquito repellent toilet water.

    When Jiang Rong and Guan Shao came to the nearby mountain, they saw this scene: Li Xiaojun was repairing the vehicle covered in oil, and the relatives of the Yue family beside him were chatting and laughing around the fire.

    Jiang Rong sighed and shook his head: "If you can be a prince at home, you have to go to someone else's house to be a servant."

    He has seen with his own eyes how kind Uncle Li and Aunt Li are to Li Xiaojun.The old couple couldn't bear to let their son suffer. After a busy day, they had to deliver fruits to Li Xiaojun despite the high temperature.But he was lucky, he felt that his parents couldn't help him, and he even helped outsiders to abuse his parents.

    Guan Shao responded to him softly: "There is no way, there are always some people in this world who are ashamed."

    While talking, Guan Shao wiped it on his face.He wore a strange-looking hat on his head, with two layers of strainer hanging under the brim.The strainer hung down over his shoulders and neck, covering the bare head and neck.

    This is his homemade anti-mosquito helmet. There are many mosquitoes in the sweltering mountains. If you don’t take good protection when you travel at night, you may not be able to come back alive.

    Homemade helmets are not as good as professional protective gear, and there are always tiny mosquitoes getting in through the seams and biting his face.While talking to Jiang Rong, he already had several mosquito bites on his face.

    Today's mosquitoes are poisonous, and the bites are painful and itchy.After killing the mosquitoes, Guan Shao took out a little essential oil through the filter and applied it to the place where the mosquitoes had just bitten.

    When performing missions before, he didn't dare to do so many small tricks.Now his opponents are not well-equipped foreign counterparts, but unsuspecting civilians, and the two of them are still tens of meters away from this group of people.Under the cover of plants, Guan Shao was not worried that these people would find him.

    Seeing Guan Shao being bitten by mosquitoes, Jiang Rong suddenly got the wood-type ability.It is the happiest thing in the world to be free from mosquito bites after a big crisis.

    Seeing Guan Shao being bitten pitifully by mosquitoes, Jiang Rong thought about how to make him feel better.I heard that some plants have the effect of repelling mosquitoes, why don't he look around, and it would be good to cover Guan Shao.

    As soon as Jiang Rong left, Guan Shao stretched out his hand to hold him: "Where are you going?"

    Jiang Rong whispered his thoughts to Guan Shao, "Wait for me, I'll go back as soon as I go."

    Guan Shao narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Don't worry, I'm mainly afraid that this group of people will find us, otherwise the mosquitoes won't be able to get close to me."

    Seeing that Jiang Rong was a little puzzled, Guan Shao took off his gloves and tapped the filter, and a layer of tiny electric light soon appeared on the filter.When the flying insect hits this layer of electric light, it will make a small "snap" sound, and then it will fall straight down.

    It's just that the more mosquitoes crashed into Guan Shao, the greater the light of the arc.Jiang Rong actually saw Guan Shao's face in the dark, and only then did he understand what Guan Shao meant when he said he was afraid of being discovered.

    After the walking power bank, Jiang Rong discovered that the lightning-type superpower was still a walking electric mosquito swatter.This ability... is very convenient and practical, and Jiang Rong felt sour again.

    Guan Shao quickly withdrew his hand and put on his gloves, "It's okay, these mosquitoes are nothing. Let's continue watching the show."

    Li Xiaojun, who had been busy for three hours, was ashamed. He was not a professional, and he didn't have handy tools. Not to mention that he couldn't find the problem, even if he found the problem, he couldn't find replacement parts.

    Tired and thirsty, Li Xiaojun walked towards the relatives of the Yue family, and said dejectedly, "I can't help it."

    As soon as the voice fell, Cao Qian's face sank: "There is no other way? What do you mean no way? There are so many supplies on the military card, what would we do without it?"

    Li Xiaojun fixedly looked at Cao Qian, and saw that his wife had no concern but blame on her face, and his anger also rose: "I didn't know how to do it, but I said back then not to pick up cars on the side of the road, I don't know what will happen.You just don’t listen. Now I have nothing to do, whoever has the ability will go up.”

    As he said that, he sat down on the empty seat, took out a bottle of mineral water and gurgled it, and when he swallowed the water, his empty stomach made a gurgling sound.Li Xiaojun stretched out his hand towards the roast chicken propped on the fire. A roast chicken cannot withstand so many people, and now there is only a chicken frame left.

    There wasn't much meat on the chicken rack, so Li Xiaojun tore off a chicken bone and gnawed it.There is no seasoning with oil and salt, and there is an indelible fishy smell on the chicken bones.Just after taking a bite, the mother-in-law's voice sounded: "Hey, what should I do? Hey..."

    The father-in-law snorted twice: "What should I do? Cold salad, without going to the village or back to the store, what else can I do? I think we are going to sleep in the countryside today."

    After being overwhelmed by Huzi, he always felt a tight pain in his chest.Sitting by the fire just now, he had already greeted the eighteen generations of the ancestors of Huzi's family, but when Li Xiaojun came back, his father-in-law changed his appearance.Holding the thermos cup in his hand, he said earnestly: "Xiaojun, don't take this matter to heart today. Your parents are just too old to leave their homeland. We will pick them up after we have established a firm foothold in the base. Elderly, they are allHard-spoken and soft-hearted, how can parents not want their own children, right?"

    The mother-in-law muttered: "Hey, where is the homeland that is hard to leave? I think they just want to put face on us, don't they just think that we have lived at home for more than a month and ate something? If you say turn your back on it, turn it on, and don't show any sympathy."Yes. Before the big crisis broke out, they never spoke politely to us. Now they just think we are useless..."

    Relatives nearby responded, and the resentment in Cao Qian's heart burst out again: "If it weren't for marrying you, our whole family would not be reduced to the point of looking at people's faces."

    "Li Xiaojun, tell me yourself, since we got married, how much have your parents helped us? For a five million house, my parents paid 2.5 million, and your parents only paid 600,000. My best friend got married.Who doesn't go on vacation abroad, buy a one-carat diamond ring, I'm the only one, and buy a goldware and listen to you crying poor."

    "I knew that you and your parents were unreliable. I lived in your house for more than a month and ate a little food from your house. Look at the faces of your parents. When you see me, your nose is not a nose. Eyes are not eyes. My stomachIt's still pregnant with your child, have they taken care of me for a day? It's fine if they don't take care of me, and they go to coax other people's children."

    "Talk about it yourself, is it easy to set up a quota for the base? Is letting them go to the base to harm them? I don't know what is good or bad, and my kindness is like a donkey's liver and lungs. The most outrageous thing is that he let a dog bite my dad. Did my dad treat you badly?"? Did my dad treat them badly?"

    "I know what your parents mean. They want you to find a girl from the village who can plant land for your family and have a baby. Twenty-four filial pieties will serve the couple and be a nanny with their own salary. Let me tell you Li Xiaojun, your fatherI will remember my mother's mistreatment of me during this period of time!"

    Xianxian chattered about the resentment in his heart, especially his dislike for Uncle Li and Aunt Li.From when Aunt Li gave her less red envelopes when she first came to the door, to all kinds of unsatisfactory things after getting married... Her speech is fast and sharp, and it makes people feel dizzy.

    Li Xiaojun held the chicken bone and looked at the bonfire with dim eyes. Cao Qian's sharp voice and relatives' echo gradually faded away in his ears.His face was scorched by the campfire, and sweat mixed with oil slid down his forehead.As a mental worker, when had he suffered such hardship?

    Seeing Li Xiaojun's eyes open, Cao Qian was furious. She grabbed a handful of stones and threw them over: "Li Xiaojun, are you deaf?! I'm talking to you!"

    The sudden pain on his face awakened Li Xiaojun's thoughts. He looked at Cao Qian fiercely, and there was a hostility in his eyes that he didn't realize.

    It was the first time Cao Qian saw such a terrifying expression on her husband's face. Her words got stuck in her throat, and she couldn't help showing fear on her face: "You, what are you doing?"

    Li Xiaojun gave Cao Qian a cold look. If it wasn't for this woman who felt that she had been treated coldly and wanted to leave, he would still be at his home.No need to fix the car in the middle of the night, no need to fall out with parents.To say unlucky, I don't know who is unlucky.

    Cao Qian twitched her lips twice and then cried out: "Mom and Dad—look, Li Xiaojun is killing me! He is killing me!"

    The mother-in-law quickly comforted Cao Qian: "Don't cry, don't cry, Xianxian, you have a baby in your belly, don't get excited."

    The father-in-law was trying to smooth things over: "Don't quarrel, don't quarrel, it's all a family, what's the point of arguing."

    The relatives of the Yue family chattered: "Xiaojun, this is your fault. Xianxian is pregnant with a baby, you have to let her go."

    "That's right, what Xianxian said is also reasonable. You are a big man, you should be more generous. Go and apologize, my wife needs to be coaxed."

    Li Xiaojun looked down at the chicken stand in his hand and felt a little funny, what qualifications do these people have to be above him?He admitted that his father-in-law did help him at work, but what about the others?What have they done for themselves?

    He knew that his family was not well off, so after marrying Cao Qian, he has been low-key and small.Could it be that the grievances he suffered and the pain he endured were less?After the big crisis, this group of people obviously depended on him for their lives, and relying on him, they could have a place to stay.Now that the supplies in their car belong to their own family, why should they make themselves humble?

    Cao Qian was still crying sharply: "He doesn't love me anymore! Mom, I want to divorce him!"

    Li Xiaojun couldn't take it anymore, he raised his hand and threw the meatless chicken rack into the bonfire: "Shut up! You want a divorce, right? Divorce is very easy now, and you don't need to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau. Leave, leave now, who the hellNo matter who is the grandson!"

    The chicken rack fell heavily into the bonfire, and the charcoal fire with sparks flew up.This move stunned the relatives of the Yue family. Cao Qian, who was crying for a divorce just now, stared blankly at Li Xiaojun's face, and her crying stopped abruptly.

    Everyone is not a fool, Li Xiaojun is the youngest of them and the one who can endure hardship the most, if he really turns around, it is unknown how far they can go.

    The relatives of the Yue family who were still accusing Li Xiaojun just now changed their tone. This time they began to persuade Cao Qian: "Xianxian, Xiaojun didn't say anything, don't be stubborn. Women should be more gentle."

    "Yeah, Xianxian, Xiaojun is very kind to you. You have to be content!"

    Jiang Rong had a great time watching it, it was much better than the soap operas on TV.I used to be united as a family, but now I'm splitting up. I can only say that I don't know it hurts until the needle sticks in my body.

    Without his parents to support him, Li Xiaojun really felt the pain.Losing those privileges before the big crisis, those who were originally high above have to bow their heads.

    That's good, but wish the pain was more intense.

    Just when Jiang Rong was fully absorbed, Guan Shao suddenly poked him: "Something is approaching."

    Jiang Rong frowned, and the ability was released along the plants around him. He was very surprised by this release: "Wolf?"

    It was not just one wolf, but a pack of wolves.They dexterously passed through the forest and approached their prey silently, and the night became their best cover. If it wasn't for Jiang Rong's ability, they would not be able to see them clearly with their eyes.

    This is strange, have never heard of wolves near hometown, let alone wolves.Could it be that he was wrong?Could it be a group of mutant dogs?

    However, upon closer inspection, Jiang Rong was even more sure that it was the wolf that was coming in this direction.In his previous life, he had seen wolves several times when he was on missions with supernatural beings. Although wolves and dogs were similar in appearance, they had completely different temperaments.

    The coordination and ferocity of the wolves are not comparable to that of stray dogs. The mutated wolves are even more terrifying, and most members of the wolves are as big as tiger cubs.Not to mention that ordinary people have no chance of survival when encountering them, even Jiang Rong now has no chance of winning when encountering them.

    After thinking for a while, he remembered one thing: D City Zoo is more than ten miles east of Lingshan Reservoir, and these wolves probably escaped from the zoo.

    Twenty or thirty wolves were coming quickly behind them, and they would be nearby in a short time.Their target was not Jiang Rong or Jiang Rong, but Li Xiaojun and his party who were foolishly talking loudly while eating roast chicken in the mountains.These people think that they have a large number of people, and they don't realize how dangerous the world is now.

    Jiang Rong just wanted Li Xiaojun and the others to learn a lesson, and didn't want them to die.He poked Guan Shao: "You retreat first, I have to tell them."

    Guan Shao lowered his voice and said firmly: "I will walk with you."

    Jiang Rong was stunned for a moment. In his previous life, when he was on missions with supernatural beings, he and other ordinary people were always the first to be given up if there was any trouble.They are bait, abandoned children, and worthless, but they are not companions.

    Seeing that Guan Shao is so determined to advance and retreat with him, it would be a lie to say that he is impassive.Jiang Rong nodded: "Okay, let's find a place to hide first."

    The two were hiding under a big tree. Jiang Rong looked up at the tall tree trunk, and released a supernatural power from his hand to direct the kudzu vines around him to grow rapidly.Ge Teng supported the bodies of the two people and climbed up, and soon lifted them to the canopy of the tree.

    The kudzu vines twined around the canopy, and quickly built a shack that could accommodate the two of them.Such shacks are obvious during the day, but they are the best shelter in the dark.Wolves can't climb trees, and even if they find them in the trees, there is nothing they can do about them.

    Jiang Rong was very proficient in using his abilities, and the effect was exactly as he had imagined.Guan Shao couldn't help giving a thumbs up: "It's amazing, I didn't expect the wood-type ability to be used like this."

    There are still many uses for wood-type powers. For example, Jiang Rong slapped kudzu vines with one hand.The ability was transmitted to other plants along the root system of the kudzu vine, and quickly spread among the mountains and forests.

    The wolves in the mountain forest were moving forward silently. When they passed by a bush of wild roses, a branch suddenly protruded from the roses and quickly entangled a wolf.Spiky vines scraped across the belly of the giant wolf, and there was a tragic howl of wolves in the forest: "Aww——"

    The howling of wolves resounded through the forest, and Guan Shao was convinced: "It's amazing."

    However, Li Xiaojun and the others were not alert, they raised their heads stupidly, "Did a wolf howl just now?"

    "Who is playing a prank? Where can there be wolves here?"

    "Ouch, I'm going to pee in fright..."

    Jiang Rong and Guan Shao looked at each other, and they saw helplessness and ridiculousness in each other's eyes.Give them a chance to escape, they will not use it, good words are hard to persuade the damn ghost.

    Once Li Xiaojun and his party procrastinated, they delayed their escape time.Guan Shao's warning not only did not allow them to escape in time, but also allowed them to find a topic for chatting.The person who just said that he was about to pee in fear walked towards the forest and unbuttoned his pants for convenience: "I won't be driving for a while, who will change with me?"

    As soon as the words fell, more than a dozen giant wolves rushed out from the forest.The person who was being handy screamed: "Fuck! Wolf! Run!" Although he shouted to run, his legs were so weak that he couldn't run at all.

    Just when the giant wolf was about to pounce on the person, its figure suddenly staggered.The huge wolf stopped moving forward, but turned its head and began to bite fiercely towards its hind legs.It didn't bite its own leg, but the kudzu vines wrapped around its legs.

    I don't know when, a dense kudzu vine appeared on the side of the road.The tough branches of kudzu vines stick out one meter high, swaying in the air.When the wolves crossed the kudzu vines, the seemingly harmless kudzu vines suddenly exploded.They entangled the body of the giant wolf, preventing the wolves from moving forward.

    The pack of wolves entangled by kudzu vines had to stop, biting the kudzu vines that blocked their progress.However, the harder they bite, the faster the kudzu vines grow and become more tightly wound.For a moment, kudzu vine leaves and vines broke and splashed everywhere, and the whining sound of the wolf being bound resounded everywhere.

    This scene seemed to be a confrontation between mutated animals and mutated plants, but it was actually a fight between Jiang Rong and a pack of mutated wolves.

    Jiang Rong on the canopy looked serious, and he kept sending the supernatural powers in his body to the kudzu vines.The vines bitten off by the wolves are useless. He can only increase the power output to make the kudzu grow faster and increase the chance of escape for Li Xiaojun and his party.

    This is easy to say, but very difficult to do.If he only dealt with one or two mutant wolves, Jiang Rong still had a chance of winning.But there are more than a dozen wolves entangled on the kudzu vines. The intelligent mutant wolves can accurately bite off the kudzu vines. It is only a matter of time before they break free.

    The panicked people who were frightened by the appearance of the giant wolf finally came back to their senses. They screamed and ran towards the car.At this time, no one is reluctant to part with the supplies of the military card: "Drive fast! Drive fast!"

    But not all the wolves were caught by the kudzu vines, and the two wolves who arrived later jumped from the kudzu vines and rushed into the crowd.The one that landed first bit the thigh of the fleeing man in front of him, and the man screamed in pain, "Help—help—"

    When the wolves launched a sneak attack, Li Xiaojun was a little confused: How could there be wolves in their place?

    When he saw wolves the size of calves, saw their green eyes glow fiercely, and smelled them.His scalp was numb and his legs were weak.At this moment, the fear of the body reached its peak.

    If he wanted to escape, he had to escape immediately, or else his life would be here.

    However, when he heard the cry for help from the relatives of the Yue family, he still hesitated.The relative who was bitten by the wolf is a bit powerful, without him, they might not be able to easily enter the base.

    After figuring it out, Li Xiaojun picked up the half-burned wood and rushed over: "Grandpa, I'll save you!"

    The burning wood fell on the giant wolf, and the flames burned the wolf's fur.The giant wolf let go with a howl, and it rolled on the ground. After rolling a few times, the open fire on its back went out, and a choking smell of burning fur came out.

    Li Xiaojun quickly supported the man: "Grandpa, let's go!"

    The relative who was still in shock made an astonishing move at this time. He gave Li Xiaojun a hard push.This push pushed Li Xiaojun directly to the wolves.Li Xiaojun's pupils contracted violently, and his face was full of astonishment.He stared blankly at the relatives who were desperately fleeing, and his heart sank a little bit.

    Not everyone can run to the car quickly. Cao Qian is bulky. When the wolf appeared, her legs were so weak that she couldn't run. She grabbed her mother's hand and cried: "Mom, mom, I can't move. Mom, momhelp me……"

    The mother-in-law dragged Cao Qian desperately, sweating all over her face: "Xianxian, get up! Get up!" However, she was weak and couldn't pull her daughter, so she could only helplessly call out to her man:"Old Cao, Lao Cao, come and help!"

    He called several times in a row, but his father-in-law didn't show up.The mother-in-law turned her head to look, and the blood suddenly turned cold.

    The husband she had trusted for half her life climbed into the car without looking back. No matter how much she and her daughter cried, he never looked at his wife and daughter.

    When they were most desperate and helpless, her good husband stepped on the accelerator and left with three or two relatives.The red rear of the car flashed and quickly disappeared on the mountain road. Xianxian's mother and daughter stopped crying and remained motionless looking at the direction in which the leading car disappeared.
