Dark Blood Age Chapter 113

Chapter 113: Chapter 113 The Western district

“Lao Duan, I need to discuss something with you.” Chu Yunsheng walked out of the shanty and gave Duan Danian a cigarette. Duan Danian was overwhelmed by this unexpected gesture.

All the neighbors were looking at them from far away. They were both surprised and curious. But whenever Chu Yunsheng had eye contact with them, they were either immediately scared away or bowed their heads down to pretend that they were busy doing something.

This place was truly a shanty town. Since Chu Yunsheng came to this place, he has already seen two bodies being moved out by someone. None of the important people were living here, and none of the dark warriors’ family members were living here. He could not even see a single person with clean or tidy clothing. Everyone’s face was filled with despair as if they were abandoned by this world.

The sudden appearance of a group of dark warriors and a GRD researcher made everyone look at them with fear. It was like a group of crocodiles emerging from a quiet family pool. It was totally unexpected.

Chu Han was emotionally unstable. She was physically and mentally exhausted. After Chu Yunsheng tried to calm her down for a while, she finally fell asleep.

Chu Yunsheng took out the food that he prepared earlier from a big travel bag, and gave it to Jing Tian to cook. He also asked a few of Duan Danian’s men to help her.

Rice, pork, chicken, and there were even some fresh vegetables. All of those ingredients made Duan Danian’s mind go blank.

It was almost 23:00, everyone was hungry at this time. This meal was Chu Yunsheng’s treat, he wanted to thank Duan Danian for his help.

Chu Yunsheng could finally stop worrying, although his auntie’s situation was very bad. However, compared to other people, his aunt was still very lucky. Anyway, he was here now, everything would get better.

“Lao Duan, I have to thank you for what you did today. You helped me a lot.” Although Chu Yunsheng did not like those bandits, who had killed a lot of people before, since he got into the city, they helped him a lot. No matter what kind of motivation they had, if it had not been for their help, he wouldn’t have been able to see his aunt this quick.

“Not at all, brother Chu, I got nothing to do anyway!” Duan Danian’s reply seemed to be hypocritical, and his inadvertently yawning could not cover his tiredness.

“Which dark warrior’s gang controls this area?” Chu Yunsheng pointed at the ground and suddenly asked him.

“Let me think… hmm… This is the western district, I hardly ever came here before… so… I don’t really know… Do you want me to ask around?” Duan Danian thought for a few seconds then shook his head.

Chu Yunsheng nodded, “it’s not urgent. Lao Duan, this is the second time we have met, so we are not really strangers to each other. To be honest with you. I’m a simple man, and I don’t like to beat around the bush. You and your brothers helped me a lot today. I thank you all for that.”

He paused for a second and put down the travel bag that he used as a disguise. After taking out a few boxes of biscuits and several packs of instant noodles, he carried on, “You take those stuff first. You and your brothers deserve it.”

“This…. No… no… you don’t need to…” although Duan Danian really wanted those foods, he still knew what was more important.

“Let me finish first, please.” Chu Yunsheng stuffed everything in Duan Danian’s arms and said calmly, “I know what you need from me, but unfortunately, I can’t help you.”

Chu Yunsheng’s words terminated Duan Danian’s plan straight away. Duan Danian instantly became dispirited. But he also knew that although he had helped Chu Yunsheng today, those were just small favors. It has not reached a point where Chu Yunsheng would come out to help him and take back his territories. That kind of favor was usually involved in a lot of bloodsheds.

There was a time when he could establish and enhance their relations.h.i.+ps. It was at the time when they had a conflict with Bai Yutang. However, he did not expect that Bai Yutang would back off so easily.

“Brother Chu, you don’t really need to say this. No matter what, It is my great honor to get to know a powerful man like you!” Duan Danian replied with a strained smile. But his words were sincere.

“Lao Duan, no matter what you are planning to do. I think, eventually, you are still doing it for food, and speaking of food, I think we can still work together,” Chu Yunsheng said while patting Duan Danian’s thick arm.

On the way to the Western district, he had already gotten some information about the place where his aunt lived from Jing Tian and Duan Danian. The area that his aunt lived was formed by the ordinary people that did not have power or any relations.h.i.+ps with any dark warriors. They were the second underprivileged people in Jin Ling city, apart from the most deplorable and homeless people, who lived on the streets. If it weren’t for the fact that those people were from the local area, the local state officials would not have distributed the congee once in a while.

He just came to Jin Ling city, and he had an ancient book. So before he had enough power, he needed to stay in a place where no matter what he did, it would not draw those three major headquarters’ attention. He needed a place to study the book, refine the armor, prepare the talisman, and find a new source of the food supply.

This was a shanty town, no one would pay much attention to this place. It was a perfect place for a hideout. Of course, he could not live in this small, crudely built shack. There were a few buildings nearby. Those buildings might be a perfect place for him. Chu Yunsheng thought.

He planned to temporarily use those meat worm’s meat as food to hire Duan Danian. He wanted them to collect the monsters’ bodies outside the main city. This kind of activity usually required a lot of manpower. It was much more effective to have those people collecting the monsters’ bodies than collecting the monsters’ bodies just by himself. In that way, it could speed up the process of making the combat armor.

“Huh?” Duan Danian’s l.u.s.treless eye instantly had a slight glimmer of hope and confusion.

“I still have some food, I was worried that the food would be confiscated, so I hid it outside the city. I need a lot of monsters’ bodies to do experiments. You can take your men to collect those bodies, and I will use those foods to exchange for them.” Chu Yunsheng had already drafted a lie earlier. Professor Sun just gave him a junior research badge, and those people did not know how he got it. So it was a perfect excuse to cover his intention.

“Oh… okay, how many do you need?” Duan Danian paused for a second, but he was not surprised that Chu Yunsheng needed those monsters’ bodies. It was a well-known fact that the GRD was studying those monsters. So it was not strange at all. He was surprised that Chu Yunsheng still had food hidden outside the city.

Of course, he was also curious why Chu Yunsheng wanted to use his own food to exchange for monsters’ bodies. But he was not stupid enough to ask him the reason why. Amongst those three major headquarters, which one did not have some secrets?

Strange things happened all the time. Maybe they were doing some secret research and they just didn’t want too much attention, or maybe they had some internal power conflicts, some people were trying to use the new technology to increase their power inside the GRD.

Who knows.

Duan Danian was only interested in food, he did not have too much spare time to care for other stuff. If he had spare time, he would rather spend it on the fair skin girl who he caught yesterday.

“We will talk in detail later, let’s eat something first!” Chu Yunsheng threw away the cigarette b.u.t.t and said. Jing Tian and Duan Danian’s men had already prepared the meal and asked them to come in.

Using food to exchange for the monsters’ bodies was just a temporary plan, he could not do it in the long run. His food storage was not unlimited. Before he found a new source of food supply, he did not want to waste any of it. That was why he just prepared to use only the meat worms that he killed in the fog city.

He had also seen that the new food experiment had already started human trials in person today, which meant that they might have a new type of food in the near future!

But in the meantime, the GCH was definitely busy finding a way to gather all the food in the nearby cities. Only those foods could be used to temporarily solve the food shortage problem, and feed all the people inside Jin Ling city.

No matter the military or the dark warriors, searching for food, transporting food, or fighting the monsters, weapons were something that they needed the most.

When Chu Yunsheng settled down and had enough power to protect himself, his unique talismans, weapons, armors, and energy s.h.i.+elds would definitely dominate the weapon market.
