Chapter 74: Shooting

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

The sound of footsteps gradually faded away. Ye Xingchen listened to the sound of them going downstairs and then tiptoed down from the window.

It was probably impossible to take the snowmobile again. The noise was too loud. He was afraid that if he turned the accelerator, they would all rush out and shoot at him. Ye Xingchen stood under the window and hesitated for ten seconds before he resolutely took out his snowboard.

The ski pole was stuck in the snow. He had only slid 20 to 30 meters before he was discovered.

He had thought that they had all gone to the first floor, but he did not expect them to be cautious and left three people to search the rooms on the second floor.

One of the lackeys was looking for something in the room next door. When he looked up, he saw Ye Xingchen on a snowboard outside.

“Big brother! Big brother! Hurry up! That kid had shown up! He wants to run!”

When the five people below heard this, they rushed to the second floor and jumped out of the window.

With a bang, Ye Xingchen’s body tilted — the snowboard was hit.

Staggering, Ye Xingchen inserted the ski pole in his hand into the snow. Then, he jumped to the side with the help of the ski pole and fell into the snow for a few rolls.

Ye Xingchen grimaced in pain when he fell into the snow. He regretted it. If he knew that he would be discovered so quickly, he would have driven the snowmobile. At least it was fast. They couldn’t catch up even if they wanted to.

Ye Xingchen rolled and crawled on the snow and hid behind a row of green trees. Now, only the top branches of these trees were not buried under the snow. Layers of snow covered the originally dark green leaves. Ye Xingchen took out a pistol and knelt behind the tree, staring at the people coming towards him.

“Hurry up! Hurry up! That kid is over there!”

“One, two, three, four…” Ye Xingchen narrowed his eyes and counted the people with guns under the faint light.

Surprisingly, five of the eight people were holding guns, while the other three were holding machetes.

After they entered Ye Xingchen’s shooting range, he was not in a hurry to shoot. He first took out two bulletproof vests from his space and wrapped his arms and legs. Then he moved to the side and fired the first shot.

With a bang, Ye Xingchen almost missed his target. Fortunately, it still grazed the head of the person he hit and hit the head of the person behind him. With a headshot, the person beside their big brother fell to the ground.

“Stop! Everyone, stop! Alert! He has a weapon! Gun!”

Ye Xingchen felt a little regretful. The one who was shot by him was only a person with a knife. He was so close to killing a person with a gun.

Rolling to the side, Ye Xingchen changed his position again. With a whoosh, a bullet flew past where Ye Xingchen was just now.

“Phew… That was close, that was close. Fortunately, I was smart. Damn, their marksmanship is quite good.”

The group of people slowed down. Ye Xingchen looked at the remaining seven people and instantly felt a headache.

It wasn’t that he hadn’t fought with people since the apocalypse began, but he had only fought with people while hiding in his house. With the protection of a house that was impervious to weapons and fire, he could fight however he wanted.

But now, they were facing each other head-on.

Ye Xingchen really wanted to run directly into the space to hide, but he could only stay for two hours in the space. If he exceeded two hours, he would become a dead object. What if he came out of the space two hours later and those people happened to stand beside him and surrounded him? Then wouldn’t he still be dead?

“I wonder if the bulletproof vests made in Hua are reliable…”

Ye Xingchen muttered softly. He lay in the gap between the leaves and aimed again.

Another shot was fired and another head exploded. Ye Xingchen hurriedly changed his position.

There was an ‘ah’ sound from the other side, followed by a few bangs. The last one was even a muffled sound.

Ye Xingchen grunted and hurriedly moved to the side.

“Big brother! It hit!”

Ignoring the fact that two of their companions had already died, the six of them ran happily towards Ye Xingchen.

“Go to hell!”

Ye Xingchen endured the pain and frowned. He watched as the six people rushed toward him, and then he raised his pistol and fired more than a dozen shots, using up all the bullets in the two pistols at his waist.

There was no movement in front of them, and everything returned to silence. A few of them fell on the snow in different postures.

“Hiss… It really hurts.”

Just when Ye Xingchen was about to change his position, they fired three shots in a row. One of them actually hit Ye Xingchen’s calf.

“Damn it, luckily I wrapped my legs with a bulletproof vest.”

After confirming that they were all dead, Ye Xingchen put the gun in his hand into the space and took off the bulletproof vest wrapped around his legs.

A bullet was deeply embedded in the bulletproof vest. Fortunately, there were a few layers of pants to block it. Otherwise, even with the bulletproof vest wrapped around him, his calf would have been in pain for a few weeks.

Shaking his legs, Ye Xingchen got up from the snow and walked towards the group.

The thermal night vision goggles showed that those people were really dead. Their body temperatures were gradually dropping.

Ye Xingchen bent down, his hands not stopping. He took out their pistols and knives and put them into the space. He also took off their clothes. Of course, the innermost layer was still left for them, mainly because Ye Xingchen thought it was dirty.

He clapped his hands. He had gained a lot this time. He had just been shot for no reason. He suddenly felt that the extra five pistols and three knives were not worth it.

The person chasing him was gone. Ye Xingchen put away the broken skis and poles on the ground into the space and switched out the snowmobile.

Ye Xingchen didn’t notice that he was being watched as he raced back home.

After returning home, Ye Xingchen drove the snowmobile into the house. As soon as the door closed, he put the snowmobile into the space.

He undressed as he went upstairs. When he reached the sixth floor, Ye Xingchen was already wearing his usual sleeping robe.

As expected, the place where the bullet hit was now green.

Lin Sijia had given Little Black a bath, and the food was already in the pot. At this moment, the woman and the dog were sitting obediently in the living room watching TV.

Ye Xingchen suddenly felt that this kind of life was quite good.

Three meals a day for two people and a dog, wasn’t that what life was all about? “Let’s eat. You two should be hungry, right?”

After locking the door of the living room, Ye Xingchen went straight to the sofa and sat down. He conveniently held the fragrant and soft Lin Sijia in his arms. “Have you been waiting for a long time? Was Little Black behaving? He wasn’t particularly noisy, was he?”

“No, Little Black is very obedient. I’ve already fed him. I didn’t feed him too much. Little Black is so thin. He must have been hungry for a long time. It’s not good to eat too much at once..”
