The door was eventually opened, and everyone got off the bus. All the monsters had finally been killed.

A dozen people had died, all their bodies were sucked dry and became mummies.

Lao Chui numbly asked people to lay all the bodies in a row. Next to the bodies, the families of the dead people were on their knees with blank expression. Their tears were already dried up.

The Chef also died, no one had the ability to save him. The Witch, the only one, who was able to save him, was still in the coma. The ancient book had talismans for healing, but Chu Yunsheng didn’t know how to make it.

Chu Yunsheng had never talked to the Chef before, the Chef was always alone and never spoke a word. No one knew where he came from, and what was his story, all they knew was that he used to be a chef, and they were on the same boat, heading towards the same destination. However, he got off too early, and he would never be able to arrive at the destination now.

“Bury them!” Chu Yunsheng got off the bus roof and said. The little tiger immediately jumped into him as soon as he landed. Suddenly, he noticed that the little tiger was getting heavier than before. He could barely lift it up now.

“Ah?” Lao Chui raised his head and responded instinctively. His eyes were blank and emotionless. He was lost.

“Bury them all!” Chu Yunsheng sighed. Seeing the Chef’s body slowly getting cold on the ground, he thought of Jiang Ye, who he met in the Dong Shen university’s escort team. That was the first person, who died fighting monsters alongside him. The reason why he wanted to bury the Chef was the same as why he wanted to bury Jiang Ye.

“Can’t… Can’t dig without… Without a shovel” Lao Chui said numbly like a robot. Chu Yunsheng couldn’t feel his emotions.

“Use this!” Chu Yunsheng drew the sword and stabbed it on the ground.

Eventually, Lao Chui took a few people with him to move the bodies. Apart from the five awakened warriors, there were around eight ordinary people that were dead.

Everyone was depressed, no one was talking.

When the only doctor in the group came out of the bus while holding the baby, everyone was staring at the newborn.

“This kid shouldn’t have come to this world. He will suffer!”

“It’s sin… A sin!”

“It’s fate! the most unfortunate one!”

“Lao Chui, the baby’s mom couldn’t produce any milk because of hunger. You need to find another way to feed the baby! Otherwise, the baby won’t be able to live long,” said the doctor.

“Way? Where do I find it?!” Lao Chui couldn’t stop his body from shaking, but he still took over the baby from the doctor. While he was standing next to the pile of bodies, he burst into tears. “it’s his fate, he shouldn’t have come to this world, it’s fate!” said Lao Chui while sobbing.

“Wa~~!” baby was crying out loud, no one knew if it was because of hunger, cold or maybe he was crying over his fate.

“God does not give us a chance, he doesn’t want us to live!!!” Lao Chui raised his head and shouted while facing the endless dark sky.

His mournful and heart-wrenching scream reverberated in the cold sky for a very long time.

They suffered a heavy loss in this fight, even Chu Yunsheng also had a minor injury. All other awakened warriors lost their abilities to fight, one was even still in the coma.

“Doctor Li, could you come here for a second!” Chu Yunsheng had checked Zhao Shanhe and other people’s injuries. If they just relied on their bodies to recover by itsef, then they wouldn’t be able to recover anytime soon. But at this place and this time, it simply did not allow them to stop and recover themselves slowly. The ground was covered with monsters’ bodies, who knew if the blood smell would attract more monsters or not.

“Mr. Chu, I will do my best to handle those wounded people, but without medicine, there is not much I can do!” Doctor Li knew what Chu Yunsheng was thinking, however, without any medicine, he couldn’t do anything.

“Don’t worry about the medicine, tell me what kind of drug will help them get better sooner, we need to leave here as soon as possible!” inside Chu Yunsheng’s storage talisman, there were a lot of medicines, which he gathered from the hospitals in Kun city and Shen Cheng city. But he did not know anything about the medicine, so he needed the doctor LI to tell him which medicine he needed at the most at the moment.

“Huh?” doctor Li was dazed for a second. They were in the middle of nowhere, they could not even see a village, let alone the hospital, where was he going to get medicine?

Chu Yunsheng was the strongest awakened warrior amongst those seven people. So even if he doubted that Chu Yunsheng could get any medicine, he still did not dare to say it out. Instead, he told him a list of medicine he needed.

Chu Yunsheng could not remember so many strange medicine names, so he asked the doctor Li to pick a few most important ones and repeat them back to Chu Yunsheng.

“Save the Witch first, let me go to get the medicines!” Chu Yunsheng patted doctor Li’s shoulder and said,

Although Chu Yunsheng did not like the Witch, her strange ability could help the doctor Li to speed up the group’s recovery.

Doctor Li didn’t know from where Chu Yunsheng was going to get the medicines, but he did not dare to ask. He just went back to the group and checked what he could do with the Witch’s injuries. Luckily, the dead monsters’ bodies were still glowing the strange light, so he could check the wound, otherwise, they could not do anything.

But when Chu Yunsheng went around the bus, what he saw made his blood boil. He saw Lao Chui’s both eyes were red and his hands were trembling, the baby was on top of the pile of bodies in the hole they had dug earlier. He slowly raised the sword and was about to stab the babe!

“Have you lost your mind!” Chu Yunsheng shouted. He wanted to save the baby, but he could not run because of exhaustion.

Seeing the newborn was about to die under his sword, Chu Yunsheng’s heart sank!

“Roar!” Suddenly a shadow dashed out from Chu Yunsheng’s side. In a split second, the roar which contained the wind elemental energy slowly formed a blurry tiger head and smashed onto Lao Chui. He was instantly knocked over.

The sword fell on the ground one meter away from them, Chu Yunsheng immediately walked over and picked up the sword while glaring at Lao Chui, who was still lying on the ground.

“Don’t kill my baby! Please! I’m begging you!” said the newborn’s mom, who was crying and begging. No one knew when she crawled out the bus, her clothes did not even cover her body properly. Although she was immediately stopped by other people, she still reached out her hands and opened her palms, trying to grab the kid.

“Are you crazy!” Chu Yunsheng pointed the sword at Lao Chui and said coldly.

Lao Chui slowly sat up, while his face was covered with tears, “he shouldn’t have come to this world, the world without milk, food, but only filled with insects. Instead of dying of starvation or getting eaten by the insects, why not end his miserable life early,” he murmured.

“Why don’t you fucking kill yourself!” Chu Yunsheng cursed. He pointed at the place where Zhao Shanhe and other awakened warriors were resting and said, “in order to save your lives, the Chef died; the Witch is still in the coma; Zhao, Tian, Li they all have severe injuries. Why do you think they end up like this, Do you think they did it just so you can kill the kid?”

Only

“Mr. Chu, do you think I want this? This kid’s father is my nephew. This kid is my grandnephew, it’s my own blood!” Lao Chui raised his head and cried. His eyes were red and hollow.

“You awakened people don’t know ordinary people’s pain, we are living in fear and panic every day, we are forced to see our families die one after another, but we can’t do anything about it. Hunger, coldness, desperation, and waiting to die, living like this, is worse than death! God is not letting us live, he is not giving us a chance!”

Chu Yunsheng was dazed by his response, the word he was about to say could not come out of his mouth anymore.

“Uncle, are you crazy, that is brother Yu Qing’s son!” Chui YuQuan staggered all the way to here from the place where Zhao ShanHe stayed. His hands clutched on Lao Chui’s shoulders and kept shaking him, “we still have brother Chu, and brother Zhao, we still have monster’s meat, we could cook the meat soup for the baby, we still have hope. Aren’t you the one who always tells me not to give up, but why are you giving up now! WHY!!”

“Uncle… Uncle… Is useless… Useless!” Lao Chui kept mumbling quietly as if he was condemning himself, or maybe he was completely lost.

“He has completely lost his mind. He is no longer suitable to be your group’s leader, Yu Quan, from now on, you take over!” Chu Yunsheng sheathed the sword and said with an irresistible tone.

The kid’s mom was still on her knees constantly kowtowing. From the sound caused by her head hitting the ground, everyone knew that she was kowtowing very hard. “I’m begging you, please… I’m begging you…” said nervously the kid’s mom,

“Chui Yuquan, you follow me!” Chu Yunsheng said coldly, he walked over and lifted up the baby’s mom, whose body was still trembling, and walked to the other side of the bus.
