Chapter 561: Chapter 557 Yan Jinsu Missing Record 09 [Explosive Update 86]

——————

Xie Jingchen, upon hearing his little wife speak, immediately cooperated by using his spiritual power to pick all the oranges from several large trees—green, partially ripe, and fully ripe—and stashed them all into the Space Button, incidentally earning a dissatisfied pat on the shoulder from Yan Jinsu.

Xie Jingchen narrowed his eyes with amusement, then picked two oranges that were partially ripe and handed them to her, coaxing:

"Wife, we have been hurrying all afternoon and haven’t had lunch. It’s not good to eat too many unripe ones; they could upset the stomach with their sourness."

It wasn’t that he was teasing her with any ulterior motives; he genuinely knew his little wife preferred sweets over sour flavors. The occasional swallowing must be her salivating over the scent of the oranges.

"Mmm, then you split half the oranges with me later... I want the green-skinned ones!" Yan Jinsu stubbornly continued to set her sights on the green-skinned oranges.

"No, let’s split them evenly. It’s okay to eat some green-skinned ones, but eating too many can hurt the teeth."

"Hmph." Yan Jinsu leaned into his ear and hummed softly in response, having already tossed her weapon back into the space, her small hands now peeling the skin of a partially ripe orange.

Although the juice made her hands dirty and sticky, the scent of the fruit became even stronger in the air, whetting Yan Jinsu’s appetite before she even began to eat, making her swallow eagerly.

Xie Jingchen, smelling this sour scent, felt his own teeth go on edge without having eaten anything! He pulled a wry face, watching his little wife’s small head on his shoulder with a mixture of helplessness and indulgence, and continued the motion of ’picking’ wild fruits with his hands.

Yan Jinsu felt that the fruit really tasted excellent, genuinely crisp, and even the sour ones quickly turned sweet once in her mouth!

Yan Jinsu only ate one segment of the orange, and her almond eyes immediately widened: It was so delicious!

She swiftly finished the orange in her hand, then silently continued to peel and eat a second one.

"Brother Chen, five o’clock direction!" Yan Jinsu, biting into the orange flesh, abruptly leaned into Xie Jingchen’s ear and said.

Though Yan Jinsu wasn’t using spiritual power, she had a natural instinct; as long as there were scents in the wind or traces in the air, she was always extremely keen to sense them, sooner than others.

Xie Jingchen, cooperating, covered both of them with his spiritual power and discovered a monkey—one with not only a red buttocks but also red eyes!

Intriguingly human-like, it climbed onto an old tree in their inclined direction and, in its monkey hand, carried a little crossbow!

Yan Jinsu didn’t see it, but Xie Jingchen’s heart tightened instantly, noticing the arrows on the crossbow had a dim green gleam.

The red-eyed monkey appeared puzzled as it looked at the two people—or was it one person—below the tree.

After contemplating, it decided there was no need to be conflicted; it just had to complete its task!

Its eyes, red as blood and devoid of any whites, grew more determined. The red-eyed monkey had already aimed the crossbow at the tallest head, then without any hesitation, pulled the trigger—

Xie Jingchen, with the advantage of his spiritual power’s foresight, reacted instantly. The monkey was thirty meters away, and he could easily evade.

At the same time, he drew a Type 54 handgun, aimed with one hand while moving his wife’s head behind his neck with the other. The gun fired with a ’bang,’ as he instructed his wife:

"Wife, be careful! Don’t stick your head out."

The bullet didn’t hit the red-eyed monkey, which had quick reflexes to begin with, and the distance between them was considerable!

After swallowing the fruit flesh, Yan Jinsu already held in her hand the Type 54 pistol that Xie Jingchen had handed to her earlier. Narrowing her eyes, when he shot again, she fired twice in quick succession!

One shot hit the shoulder of the first red-eyed monkey, and the second shot hit the forehead of another red-eyed monkey that appeared at three o’clock!

The second monkey thought it was well-hidden, planning to attack amidst the chaos? Dream on.

Yan Jinsu sneered inwardly, then her gun abruptly fired upwards with a loud bang!

Xie Jingchen was quick to react; when his wife signaled a warning, he spread his spiritual power as wide as possible. With the cover of his spiritual power, his gun also did not stop, bang-bang, bang-bang, four, five shots rang out. From front to back, from east to west in the woods, thuds of heavy objects falling onto the muddy ground followed!

In between, the injured monkeys’ ’zi, zi-zi’ cries could be heard.

The husband and wife team worked seamlessly together. In just a short minute, they had already killed eleven red-eyed monkeys. Only the first one, injured in the shoulder, could still launch a sneak attack!

Xie Jingchen swiftly dodged with a twist of his body. Under his action, Yan Jinsu cooperated perfectly and fired a shot, bang, a headshot!

"Brother Chen, isn’t this strange? These monkeys seem to be controlled! First, it was the Black Head Ants, then the occasional traps, and now the red-eyed monkeys..." Yan Jinsu truly felt that this was highly unusual.

Ordinary humans could not possibly control so many different species, and in such numbers at that!

Even a Superpower User would not be able to control more than two types of Beast Taming at the same time!

Moreover, she already learned from Xie Jingchen that this world was just an ordinary Space; there weren’t any superpowers or such.

Initially, the Black Head Ants were only staying inside the boulders. They had found traces of human activity, but had no idea that their opponents had already researched a drug for animal control!

"To have these red-eyed monkeys targeting humans and using weapons, this can’t be achieved in a short time!" Xie Jingchen frowned, looking at the ground filled with crossbows, his face extremely dark.

"And these red-eyed monkeys can actually use poison? Even if they’ve been taught, isn’t this a bit too much trouble?" Yan Jinsu was speechless.

"Right, I’ll clean up the battlefield here first!" Xie Jingchen couldn’t stand leaving things that harm people in the woods.

Although it was expected that few people would come to this place, what if someone did happen by chance? Whether poisoned human or animal, neither was a good thing.

Seeing this, Yan Jinsu took the opportunity to make a request: "Brother Chen, let’s take the chance to eat something. Put me down, I’m hungry."

She had been carried for several hours, feeling that her thigh muscles were somewhat chafed!

Oh no, extremely chafed! She had wanted to get down much earlier, but this man was too overbearing and very annoying! Yan Jinsu grumbled inwardly, insincerely.

Especially earlier, when Xie Jingchen had to dodge the bolts, the leap was quite large, her poor thighs had really suffered.

Of course, this was something Yan Jinsu really couldn’t bring herself to say out loud, only hinting subtly.

"Alright." Xie Jingchen found a high spot of land, which was open and free of trees, before finally setting Yan Jinsu down, took out the leftover porridge from the morning, and commanded:

"Wife, just sit here quietly and don’t move, I’ll be right back."

"Got it—" Yan Jinsu turned her mouth away, her hands already cradling the small bowl, eating unabashedly!
