Naming Technique of the Night - Chapter 116

“Don’t worry, my student and I will definitely help out if there’s any danger,” Li Shutong assured Qin Cheng.

Hearing that, Qin Tong secretly measured up Qing Chen. The boy was tall and thin, and although his face was firm, his skin was smooth and fair. He looked nothing like someone who had experienced killing another person.

This kind of youth was more suited to stay in a place like City 18’s university.

Qing Chen shot Li Shutong an astonished glance, he didn’t think his teacher would bother with this sort of stuff.

Seeing his confusion, Li Shutong whispered to him, “I didn’t take any action before because I didn’t want to scare them. Now, it’ll be fine even if I do since they don’t even know who I am. It’s Mister Mu who’ll be making his move, what does I, Li Shutong, have to do with it?”

It was at this moment that Qing Chen felt he had finally understood what kind of person his teacher really was.

He also realised why Lin Xiaoxiao had said that everyone seemed to have forgotten how willful his teacher used to be.

Qin Cheng was beaming with happiness. Putting aside the matter of getting closer to him, having a C-level master follow along with their hunting team would make the job much safer.

Qing Chen went to help with setting up the tents, but Qin Yiyi looked at him and said, “You don’t have to. In the wilderness, the only things men need to do are hunt and kill, no need to bother with housework.”

Qing Chen leaned against a nearby tree and asked, “Are you guys going to hunt the Qingshan Falcon?”

“We can’t catch that thing,” Qin Yiyi told him, “What we want to catch is a type of sparrowhawk, it’s much smaller than the Qingshan Falcon. No one dares to hunt the Qingshan Falcon these days, they only live in ‘that place’ and can’t be found anywhere else.”

She glanced at Qing Chen. “I’ll help you put some medicine on your feet later. Don’t worry, it won’t gross me out. Whenever my dad gets hurt, my mom and I are the ones who help him treat the wounds. Dad said I’m meticulous, I have keener eyes than mom and can clean up the wounds nicely.”

“No need,” Qing Chen shook his head.

Qin Yiyi had already finished her task and was getting ready to return to the bonfire. As she walked, she spoke to Qing Chen in a low voice, “I see that you’re always sleeping outside, you might be able to keep at it for one or two days, but do it for a week and you’ll be down. The ground is too cold, you can use my tent instead. I’ll go to sleep in my sister’s tent.”

“Ah, there’s no need for that. I have no trouble sleeping outside,” Qing Chen immediately rejected.

“Up to you. Even if you don’t use it, I’ll still empty the tent.” Qin Yiyi walked away once she finished speaking.

This wilderness girl was as straightforward as one could be. Just like when she gave Qing Chen an apple by directly stuffing it in his hands, she refused to accept his rejection.

In this land, everyone lived like there was no tomorrow. Never hesitate, because once you did, the person you still had a lot to say to might no longer be here.

Qin Yiyi’s sister was like this. She used to like a man, the eldest son from another family of hunters, but after returning from another hunting trip, she never saw him again.

They said he got lost in the forbidden land and never came out.

At first, Qing Chen still wanted to say something, but at this moment, he caught a reflection of light flashing in the middle of the woods.

He didn’t show any reaction and didn’t even turn around to check it.

At night, Qin Yiyi hurriedly went into her sister’s tent. Nobody knew what the two were talking about, but the small tent was filled with the sound of giggles and laughter.

Seeing that Qing Chen still didn’t plan on using Qin Yiyi’s tent, Li Shutong asked him, “Why, isn’t it good to have a place to sleep in?”

Qing Chen shook his head. “I don’t want to easily owe favours to other people.”

“How ignorant,” Li Shutong said in disapproval, “Don’t force me to knock you out and throw you inside, how can you be so picky when going outside? Quickly scream in.”

Dumbstruck, Qing Chen stared at the teacher in front of him, unable to say anything for a long time.

He had no doubt that knocking him out to throw him into the tent was definitely something his teacher could do!

“Teacher, when I was setting up the tents, I happened to see a flash of light from the woods. I suspect someone was using a telescope to spy on me.” Qing Chen pondered and said, “I think something strange is going on.”

Li Shutong calmly replied, “Wait inside the tent. Tonight, your teacher will give you your first lesson in the wilderness.”

…

When Qing Chen went into Qin Yiyi’s tent, he saw two pieces of chocolate on the moisture-proof mat. He knew this was something the hunters brought on the job to supply their energy, but Qin Yiyi secretly snuck away some for him.

He laid down on the mat without sleeping, carefully chewing the chocolate. The chocolate in this world tasted the same as it did in the Outer World.

Qing Chen knew something would happen tonight, but he didn’t sleep not because he was afraid.

With Li Shutong here, he would still be safe even if he was inside a forbidden land.

He just wanted to know what exactly was going to happen tonight.

Countdown 70:00:00.

Two in the morning.

The shadows looming in the woods, the rustling sound of leaves; something was stirring in the winds.

The crescent moon shone above the sky, an atmosphere so clear you could seemingly view the craters on its surface with naked eyes.

The ray of moonlight spilled to the ground through the crevices in the woods.

Under the intertwining light and shadow, someone silently pulled the bolt of his rifle.

All of a sudden came a drifting dark cloud as if a flying fortress had settled above the air.

An abrupt force abated the bonfire, dimming all sources of light in the campsite, sinking it into the darkness like a forgotten relic.

Old man Qin Cheng told his wife, “Don’t move, I’ll go take a look.”

He could vaguely hear some movements. Picking up the gun by the pillow, he quietly got out of the tent.

But just as his head was out of the tent, a knife was pressed against his neck.

Qin Cheng turned his head to see Zhang Tongdan smiling down at him. “Shh, don’t speak, we’re just interested in your in-laws. We want to see if those big men from the city have anything valuable on them. I was in a hurry and couldn’t really tell, do they have any mechanical limbs? The kind made with nano-alloy.”

Qin Cheng shook his head. “I don’t know. Zhang Tongdan, we’ve been trading with each other for a long time, don’t break the rules. If you continue acting recklessly, I’ll tell your boss about what happened here.”

“Don’t threaten me with the boss, he’s far away from here now,” Zhang Tongdan laughed, the wrinkles on his face looking like landforms eroded by the wind. “These people could give out Thor so casually, if they have any mechanical limb, it’ll certainly fetch a nice price. We’ll leave after killing them, so save your words. Don’t need to feel too bad about it, with how pretty your second daughter is, she won’t have any difficulty finding a man in the wilderness. If she really can’t find one, I don’t mind making her my concubine.”

The veins in Qin Cheng’s forehead throbbed in anger. In an instant, he turned back and roared, “Enemy attack, be careful!”

It wasn’t that he was dead set on warning Qing Chen and Li Shutong, but he knew what kind of person Zhang Tongdan was. This person was a jackal. Since he had already chosen to break the rules, he would’ve never let anyone escape from the campsite.

When Qin Cheng turned around, Zhang Tongdan cursed under his breath. His arm burst out with the strength to slash Qin Cheng’s throat, but he never thought Qin Cheng had sewn a layer of metal inside the collar of his clothes. An ordinary knife wouldn’t be able to pierce through it.

“Come out now, quick, kill those city guys first!” yelled Zhang Tongdan.
