Chapter 165 Let's Eat Fish Together
In the mountains and cliffs ahead, a cluster of mountain streams slowly flows down the rock face from a high place, eventually forming a natural spring.
The surrounding area was filled with the melodious chirping of birds, and several small animals were drinking water by the spring.
Xi Yu walked up, caught some of the flowing mountain water in her palm, and drank it. This kind of unpolluted water source is fine even without boiling.
“This water is fine, you can drink it without worry.” After she finished speaking, the Luo siblings rushed over and scooped up the water with their hands to drink it in big gulps.
The sweet and slightly cool spring water quenched their thirst, and they drank until their bellies were full before stopping.
Ruan Zilu politely filled a bottle with water, and Fang Yiqing also stepped forward and drank some water.
"Let's rest here for a bit. There are fish in the spring; we can grill a few to eat." Xi Yu filled the empty bottle with water and sat down casually.
“Let us do it, we’re pretty good at cooking.” Luo Zuoling volunteered to take on the task. She really didn’t expect Xi Yu to find water sources so easily, and even two of them, although she had previously determined that the first one was undrinkable.
In return for the favor, the Luo siblings were not ungrateful. They quickly caught several plump fish, borrowed Xi Yu's long knife to scale and gut them, and swiftly set up a fire.
Soon, the aroma of grilled fish filled the air, stimulating the empty stomachs of the group.
Once the fish was grilled, the group gathered around the fire and ate it with relish, except for Fang Yiqing, who remained alone in the distance, eating the fish by himself.
"What a shady guy, why does he always like to hide in corners?" Luo Youhui couldn't help but complain about Fang Yiqing's strange behavior.
After eating fish together, everyone's relationship became closer, except for Fang Yiqing, which is why Luo Youhui said that.
Xi Yu couldn't help but smile, and whispered in a voice that Fang Yiqing couldn't hear, "He's keeping watch for us around, and no matter how slowly you walk, he'll always be behind you."
They immediately showed expressions of sudden realization, especially Luo Youhui, who looked at Fang Yiqing repeatedly in shock.
I never expected this quiet and reserved person to have such a considerate side!
In an instant, Fang Yiqing's image became endearing, and that sense of incongruity vanished.
Fang Yiqing felt a chill run down his spine; he felt as if several burning gazes were staring at him from behind.
“We’ve rested enough, it’s time for us to set off.” Xi Yu took the lead and headed towards the swamp.
"How did you know the direction? I haven't even opened the map to check yet!" Luo Youhui hurriedly opened the map in the search engine, and sure enough, Xi Yu was heading in the right direction, which made him even more puzzled.
"I've memorized the map," Xi Yu said calmly without turning her head.
"what!?"
Exclamations erupted from everyone, and even the silent Fang Yiqing turned his gaze over.
"You memorized it after just one glance?! Is that amazing?" Luo Youhui smacked his lips. He clearly remembered that Xi Yu only glanced at the map at the very beginning!
He stared wide-eyed, carefully recalling Xi Yu's performance at the military academy, and found that there was nothing particularly special about her except for her relatively good shooting skills.
Xi Yu silently calculated the time needed to reach the swamp area. At her current pace, it would take about three hours, assuming she didn't encounter any obstacles.
For example, mutants.
