C37 (2/2)

It was only now that Xiu'er turned to look at strong man, and said while grinning: ”Big Brother strong man, it's your turn.”

strong man's eyes were fixated on the scene. Forget about anything else, he couldn't just grab onto a rock with his hand. After a long while, strong man bitterly shook his head and said, ”Lady's God Power, I am ashamed of myself. I admit defeat in this round. ”

Xiu'er bowed slightly: ”Then, we will begin the next round?”

Shi Donglai let out a long sigh, ”Forget it, I don't think we need to compete. strong man, just admit defeat. ”

strong man fiercely turned his head to look at Shi Donglai, and said softly: ”Master! Maybe it was because the girl had more strength, catching Demonic Beast required martial skills, agility, experience and coordination. I might even be able to beat her! ”

Shi Donglai frowned and stared at strong man for a good while. Just as he was about to speak up, strong man interrupted, ”Master, we can lose our Wulian Border Army but we cannot let them use a few stones to scare us. Let me try again! ”My Lord!”

Stone looked at strong man who had an expression of anticipation, then looked at the other officers of Border Army. He sighed, then slowly sat back down on his chair.

Seeing that he had tacitly approved, strong man immediately turned and cupped his hands towards Xiu'er, ”Young lady, from now on, 15 miles to the north is a wild man's ditch. Although it was called the Wild Man's Gully but it was actually a place where demon bears roamed. The two of us will each lead a group, with one day and one night, the first one to hunt down the Demonic Bears will be the victor. ” He put his finger to his mouth and whistled. Not long after, five soldiers ran over from the direction of the camp. After bowing and bowing, they stood behind strong man.

strong man looked at Xiu'er with a tinge of satisfaction, then deliberately glanced at Chen Chu and Qu Feizhi who were still standing in the tent, and said: ”Miss, in the Wulian Border Army Battalion, you, Keren, will choose five people.”

Xiu'er waved her hand: ”I'll go take a look first, it won't be too late to talk later when I get back.” With that said, she turned and walked out. She borrowed a horse from the patrolling soldiers and rode on, heading straight towards the north.

strong man turned around and returned to the tent, then sneered at Chen Chu and Qu Feizhi before bowing to Shi Donglai, ”Master Shi, I will be leaving now.”

Shi Donglai waved his hands, ”Go, pay attention to your safety, and don't embarrass us with your Wulian Border Army!”

strong man bowed: ”Please rest assured master!” After he finished speaking, he turned around and walked out, not forgetting yet that he had intentionally rolled his eyes at Chen Chu and his.

Chen Chu ignored him coldly. Then, Qu Feizhi suddenly spoke out, ”This big brother, why don't we depart later?”

strong man was startled: ”What do you mean?”

Qu Feizhi scratched his head and smiled, ”This lady has already said she will go and take a look, is it appropriate for you to bring your troops there? A distance of fifteen miles could only last two hours at most. It would be better for everyone to take the opportunity to rest, eat lunch together, and drink and chat merrily. When Lady Xiu’er comes back, he will decide whether or not he really wants to go bear hunting.

His words were not without reason, and strong man was a little hesitant in her heart. Just a moment ago, Xiu'er did indeed say that she would go take a look first. Right now, she was leading her troops hastily, and it seemed like she was taking advantage of her.

While hesitating, Shi Donglai spoke up, ”Master Qu's words are reasonable, we are all guests from far away, how can we let others starve? strong man, don't go anymore. Let's arrange for some dishes to be served later. Lady Xiu’er will rest well after he returns. The matter regarding the competition will be discussed tomorrow. ”

”Yes!” ”My Lord!” Since the boss had spoken, strong man did not want to say anymore, hence he accepted the order and left the room.

Two hours later, there were already three to five tables of wine at the entrance of the tent. The cooks were carrying the dishes up to the table like flowing water. Wulian Mountain Range s were rich in resources, from bear claws and tiger bones to wild hare hens, there were more than a dozen types of wild vegetables and mushrooms, let alone the various wild fruits that filled the mountains. As Qu Feizhi looked at the table full of dishes, he suddenly thought about the matter of Phoenix City Pass losing their rations a while ago. He hurriedly got up and said to Shi Donglai, ”Master Shi, this is really too sumptuous, too sumptuous.”

Shi Donglai smiled faintly and replied with a question, ”The Wulian Border Army s can't make up more than ten thousand people, but there are more than fifteen thousand people in this army camp. However, the military rations were distributed to only 5,000 people per month. General Qu, do you know why? ”

Qu Feizhi was startled, and subconsciously replied: ”Could it be that someone deducted the payment of food?”

When he said that, the surrounding Wulian Border Army officers all laughed out loud. ”Wrong! It's all my fault! ”I don't like to eat those brown rice noodles!”

Shi Donglai stretched out his chopsticks and pointed to a table of meat and wine, ”These things are our daily necessities. If you want to eat anything, go ask Wu Lian Mountain. There was everything in the mountain, just to see if he had the ability to obtain it. You two don't have to be so polite, just go ahead and eat! ”

After an interlude, the relationship between Qu Feizhi and the other officers had grown closer. Although Wulian Border Army and Red Camp were not much in the eyes of others, they were still quite concerned about the battle between the Phoenix City Pass guards from a few days ago. Qu Feizhi's straightforward attitude also suited their appetite. Everyone would choose a few interesting things to tell him, and laughter would occasionally burst out from the table.

After three rounds of drinking, the atmosphere at the table became more and more heated. Amongst them, Shi Donglai had actually asked the Lady Xiu’er a few times. Qu Feizhi casually said that this lady did not like to socialize, so even if she returned, she would definitely not attend this occasion.

Just as Qu Feizhi was patting his chest and doing everything, Xiu'er's voice came from behind him, ”Master Qu, even if he doesn't like to drink wine on the table, at least he should at least say a few polite words, right?”

Qu Feizhi was startled, he stood up and turned around, and asked with a face brimming with joy: ”You're back? ”What about that place?” Chen Chu, who had been silent all this time, stood up and looked at Xiu'er with interest.

Xiu'er bowed towards Shi Donglai and the rest before replying with a smile on her face, ”Thank goodness for the mission.”

It was only then that the training camp's soldiers stumbled over and shouted loudly, ”Reporting to the ~ ~ Master Jin Shi!” Just now, someone threw a Demonic Bear at the entrance of the camp. ”

Xiu'er pursed her lips and laughed: ”, no need to panic, I threw that Demonic Bear there. Carrying it all the way is a bit tiring. ”
