C87 Chapter 87

Jiegeng jumped into the river and found a fish swimming agilely under a big rock. Jiegeng immediately approached carefully and raised the tree root in her hand gradually.

After looking at the position, Jiegeng immediately fork towards the center of the fish. The force was too great, and there were quite a few splashes on the surface of the river.

Jiegeng wiped away the water droplets that splashed onto her face, and then immediately raised the tree trunk in excitement.

Unfortunately, there was nothing on the tip of the tree.

Jiegeng was just about to show off to Duan Shuang when she saw Duan Shuang also looking at her. She could only say awkwardly, "Mistake, mistake."

Turning around, Jiegeng began the next round of capturing.

Duan Shuang kept looking at Jiegeng like this. The curve of his mouth never disappeared.

Immediately after, Jiegeng, who had failed consecutively, could not help but feel discouraged in her heart. "How could I not catch it? I clearly only made a move after I saw it accurately every time."

At this moment, Duan Shuang took off his shoes and socks, rolled up his trousers, and walked towards Jiegeng with the tree trunk.

"Alright, you can go up and sit. I'll catch it." Duan Shuang rubbed the back of Jiegeng's head.

"I don't believe that you can catch it in one go, Your Royal Highness." Jiegeng pouted.

Duan Shuang did not say anything. He simply threw the tree trunk into the river with ease.

"Go and take a look." Duan Shuang waved his hand at Jiegeng with a face full of confidence.

"Stop joking, I don't believe it..." Jiegeng kept muttering as she walked towards the tree trunk.

"It can't be!" Jiegeng pulled out the tree trunk. There was a fish stuck at the tip of the tree.

"I didn't even touch a fish when I aimed so accurately. Why did you catch it with a casual throw?"

Duan Shuang took the tree trunk from Jiegeng's hand and flicked Jiegeng's forehead. "There are skills in catching fish too. Who asked you to be so arrogant just now?"

Jiegeng was speechless for a moment.

Duan Shuang saw Jiegeng's hesitant look and suddenly approached. He lowered his head to look at Jiegeng and said, "Do you want to learn?"

If Jiegeng could be as bold as Shihan, she would definitely dare to directly kiss. Unfortunately, at this time, she was so timid that she did not want to give up.

Jiegeng's head immediately moved back a little bit and then nodded.

Duan Shuang then stood up straight. "Actually, you have no problem with all the steps except for one."

"Where?" Jiegeng immediately asked anxiously.

"You should aim at the fish's tail and not the fish's stomach."

"Why?"

"Think about it. What would happen when you put chopsticks or spoon into the water?"

Jiegeng thought for a while and then said, "It seems that the part in the water and the part on top of the water seems to have been cut off. The part in the water clearly moved forward." Jiegeng suddenly had a look of realization.

"So that's the case!"

"Not really stupid." Duan Shuang nodded his head in satisfaction.

"I have always been smart." Jiegeng responded with dissatisfaction. "I just did not remember it for a while."

"You don't have to move. I can definitely catch the fish myself." Jiegeng pushed Duan Shuang to the riverside and continued to search for the fish.

The sun was setting and the surface of the water was glistening with orange light. Jiegeng's persistent fishing posture in the river merged with the natural scenery of the mountain. In Duan Shuang's eyes, it was a beautiful scene.

Although Jiegeng had let the fish escape a few times in the beginning, after grasping the correct method, Jiegeng finally caught the first fish.

"Your Highness, look! I caught it too!" Jiegeng shouted happily.

"En, this little girl did really well!"

It was only then that Jiegeng realized that there were a few fresh fish on the riverbank behind Duan Shuang.

"Your Royal Highness, didn't I tell you not to move? I can catch fish here!" Jiegeng said, not forgetting to show off the fish in her hands.

"Look at the sky. What time is it? How can two fish be enough for so many people to eat?"

Even so, Jiegeng was still unhappy in her heart. After walking to the riverside and putting down the fish, Jiegeng suddenly picked up the water from her palm from behind and poured it towards Duan Shuang.

"Haha, become a soup chicken!" Seeing that Duan Shuang's hair was full of water droplets, Jiegeng was happy at this moment.

However, when Duan Shuang raised his head, Jiegeng finally reacted to what she had done just now.

Oh my god! Did I splash water all over Zhen'an King's body?!

Jiegeng did not even think and immediately turned around, wanting to escape towards the center of the river.

Unfortunately, she was too flustered and accidentally stepped on a smooth stone in the water. Her entire body lost its balance immediately.

"Be careful!"

Duan Shuang immediately went to pull Jiegeng. Unexpectedly, Jiegeng treated Duan Shuang as her life-saving straw and pulled Duan Shuang's arm forcefully.

In the end, both of them fell into the water beautifully.

Jiegeng fluttered up, "Ah, my clothes are all wet!"

She composed herself and realized that Duan Shuang had also been pulled into the water by her.

"Your Royal Highness, are you alright?"

Duan Shuang used his arm to prop himself up on the ground and could only sigh deeply.

"Let's go back." Duan Shuang used the tree trunk to string up all the fish he caught and returned the way he came.

"Still not leaving? You like to wear wet clothes so much?"

A gust of evening wind blew over and Jiegeng could not help but shiver. "Of course not."

When Duan Shuang and Jiegeng returned to the team, Ouyang Lingfeng had already returned with the fruit. At this moment, he was leaning against the wild rabbit meat, and the fragrance also began to spread.

Duan Shuang threw the fish in front of Ouyang Lingfeng. "I'll deal with these as well."

Ouyang Lingfeng raised his head and started teasing. "You two don't look like you have lost your fishing. You look more like you are going to feed the fish."

Duan Shuang couldn't help but roll his eyes at Ouyang Lingfeng.

"Why don't you go and change into clean clothes?" Duan Shuang saw that Jiegeng had been standing there for half a day after she came back, and he could not help but urge her.

"Oh, okay."

"Jiegeng, what's going on?" Shihan had just returned with fresh fruits when she saw Jiegeng falling into the soup.

"Cousin, what's wrong with you? You won't take good care of Jiegeng either!" Shihan didn't say anything and directly made trouble for Duan Shuang.

" You ask her yourself? " Duan Shuang looked at Jiegeng.

"Sister, it's my fault. Don't make it worse for me." After saying that, Jiegeng hurriedly entered the carriage.

Duan Shuang also entered the tent.

"Jiegeng, have you changed it?" Shihan asked as she carried a bowl of hot water outside the carriage.

"Yes."

Shihan then brought the hot water into the carriage.

"Drink some hot water first to drive away the cold." Shihan immediately passed the hot water to Jiegeng.

" Oh." Jiegeng took the hot water and slowly drank it.

"Did Your Royal Highness drink it?" After taking a sip, Jiegeng immediately asked Duan Shuang.

"Don't worry about him. He is used to marching outside. This little bit of water won't freeze him." Shihan looked like she did not care. "However, you are getting bolder and bolder. You even dare to make fun of him."

"Didn't I play too much just now?" Jiegeng also regretted it. "You don't even know. When I came back just now, I didn't even dare to breathe loudly beside him." Jiegeng continued to drink hot water. The warm temperature gradually dispersed the coolness brought by the river water.

"What did he say about you again?"

"It is because he did not tell me anything along the way that it is scary." Jiegeng was now very confused. "Sister, tell me. Don't tell me he hates me just because of my prank?"

"He is not that petty." As soon as she said this, Shihan did not know what to do. "Is that so? He doesn't seem to be." Shihan also hesitated when she recalled the people who had provoked him in the capital.

"Sister!" After Shihan said this, Jiegeng became more and more anxious.

"Aiya, it's useless even if you shout at me." Shihan rubbed her ears. "Tonight, you can go and investigate him yourself. Won't you know?"

Jiegeng let out a long sigh.

"Alright, quickly come down and eat. After tossing and turning for an entire afternoon, he must be hungry. Only after he was full would he have the strength to think of a way. Hurry up and come down. We'll talk after eating. "

" Shihan, these are all for you. " Ouyang Lingfeng saw Shihan get off the carriage and immediately offered it to her.

"Okay, you don't have to keep thinking about me. Eat it yourself." Shihan took the freshly roasted meat.

"Are you worried about me?" Ouyang Lingfeng was immediately surprised.

"I'll give you some color. Are you going to open the dye shop? Shihan turned around and went to find Jiegeng.

At this time, the night had already completely fallen. Other than the clusters of fire in this group of people, there were also dim flames not far away.

Bai Lan took a grilled fish and walked towards the distant flame alone.

"Take it." Bai Lan handed the grilled fish to Wang Zhi'er.

Wang Zhi'er stared at him for a while before she took the food from him.

"It's not safe for a girl like you to stay here alone. Come and join us." Bai Lan said helplessly.

Wang Zhi'er was surprised by his change.

"Don't misunderstand. It's just that tonight's situation is special. If you are eaten by the hungry wolves in the mountain at midnight, I cannot bear the responsibility."

At this moment, a few howls sounded from the cove.

Wang Zhi'er's cold face also showed some fear.

When Bai Lan brought Wang Zhi'er back to the group, he said to Jiegeng. "Let her squeeze with you guys tonight."

Jiegeng nodded.

After that, Bai Lan continued to speak solemnly to Wang Zhi'er, "After we leave this forest, you don't need to follow us anymore. "

Wang Zhi'er turned her head to the side, obviously not agreeing.

" You! " Bai Lan had no other choice.

"Alright, alright. What are you thinking about? Come and eat the meat." Lan Hong pulled Bai Lan over.

"It's a pity that there's no wine. If I could make a bowl of turbid wine, I would be satisfied!" Lan Hong chewed on the rabbit leg as he fantasized.

"Miss Wang, don't worry about it tonight." Jiegeng comforted Wang Zhi'er. "I am Jiegeng, and this is my elder sister, Shihan."

"Zhi'er, Wang Zhi'er." Wang Zhi'er also replied.

"Shihan, have you finished eating?" Ouyang Lingfeng came to look for Shihan when he was free.

"What happened again?" Shihan looked at him impatiently.

"Come out with me for a while. I have something to say to you."

"What can't you say here? I'm not going!" Shihan refused without thinking.

"It's really important. I want to talk to you alone." Ouyang Lingfeng's expression became very serious.

Shihan frowned and looked at him, hesitating.

"Sister, you can go. Looking at Big Brother Ouyang, he doesn't seem to be joking." Jiegeng also felt that the atmosphere was different and advised from the side.

"This is really troublesome!" Although she was still reluctant, Shihan still stood up and walked away with Ouyang Lingfeng.

"Tell me, what is it?" Shihan immediately asked when she walked to a place with no one around.

There was no fire there. Fortunately, the moonlight was enough to see clearly.

"It has been a few days. Shihan, don't you care about how my wound is? "Ouyang Lingfeng returned to his original appearance. He did not look as serious as before.

"Ouyang Lingfeng, are you kidding me?" Shihan was angry. "Did you call me out just to ask this question?"

"That's not it. You never cared about my wound. I'm so sad. " After saying that, he even acted like he was suffering from a heart injury.

"You are sick!" Shihan cursed in her heart and turned around to leave.

This was because Ouyang Lingfeng suddenly attacked from behind and knocked Shihan unconscious in his arms.

After seeing Shihan faint, Yue also came out from the darkness.

"By doing this, won't the princess become suspicious?" Yue asked with an uneasy expression.

"If this was your doing, Shihan would naturally do it. But if it was me." Ouyang Lingfeng could not help but smile bitterly. "She would only think that she was making fun of her again and deliberately made fun of her."

After saying that, Ouyang Lingfeng took out the porcelain bottle from his bosom. Just like that day, he fed Duan Shihan a medicinal pill.

"This was originally my duty. I will have to trouble Young Master Ouyang."

"If it was like before, only you two master and servant would go out. It would naturally be much easier for you to make a move. However, with so many people following along this time, it would be extremely difficult to do so without anyone noticing. So, you don't have to blame yourself."

Yue still cupped her hands and thanked Ouyang Lingfeng.

"Alright, take Shihan back. I want to be alone." Ouyang Lingfeng looked at Shihan's sleeping face and his face showed endless loneliness.

"Yes."

"Mistress, this is a great opportunity." Qin Qing reported to the masked man. "Originally, we set a trap at the Eagle Beak Cliff behind Central State. Now, they actually entered this forest by themselves. This subordinate believes that the terrain here is complicated and sparsely populated. It's a good opportunity to make a move. "

The masked man didn't say anything.

"Mistress?" Qin Qing asked again. "Mistress, the opportunity cannot be missed. Although Eagle Beak Cliff has the terrain advantage, it is not easy for our people to hide. Hence, there are only a limited number of people that can be sent up. Here, I am confident that I can capture Bai Jiegeng alive. "

"Just watch the deployment. However, there is only one condition. You are not allowed to harm Duan Shihan." The masked man finally responded with a hoarse voice.

When Qin Qing heard this reply, her heart ached.

"I will go back first. If I leave for too long, they will become suspicious."

"Farewell Mistress." After the masked man's figure completely disappeared, Qin Qing finally released the hatred and jealousy in her eyes.

"Young Ambassador, does Mistress agree with our plan?" A man went forward to ask Qin Qing.

"Notify the others to start the operation tomorrow."

"Yes!" That man was obviously much more excited.

"Also, besides capturing Bai Jiegeng alive, it would be best to let Duan Shihan die in an accident!" At this time, Qin Qing's eyes only had ruthlessness.

"Young envoy, this..."

"What's wrong?"

"Didn't Mistress order not to injure Duan Shihan? Doing this, if Mistress finds out..."

"What are you afraid of? Everything is my responsibility. Could it be that you wish to see that woman ruin our plans? Mistress has already broken the rules for that woman more than once."

" Yes, this subordinate understands! "

This night was extraordinarily quiet.
