Bai Luoyu turned around, his expression not looking very good: "Fifth Prince, it seems that we don't have such a deep friendship."

"Friendship is not about the depth but about fate. The general and I met in such a large hunting ground and we hit it off right away. Isn't this fate?" Gu Nianchen rode his horse towards Bai Luoyu with an even wider smile on his face!

Bai Luoyu looked alert. "Fifth Prince, please speak frankly. This general has no interest in the struggle for imperial power, and will not participate. I have not taken sides with either the Crown Prince or the Third Prince, so Fifth Prince can rest assured. Therefore, if this is the case, please do not speak up!"

"General, you are worrying too much. This is not the reason why I came here! You and I will go together today, and all the prey we get will belong to you. Nianchen knows that you care about your soldiers. If you have these 1,000 taels of gold, how many weapons and nobles can you buy for your soldiers? I think you will agree!" As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Nianchen drew his bow and shot an arrow. A musk deer that had been hiding in the bushes was hit and fell to the ground!

Gu Nianchen understood that Bai Luoyu was banished to a small world and was completely unfamiliar to him, so all emotions had to be built up bit by bit.

It is impossible for a young general who is decisive, calm and self-controlled to agree to his alliance just because of a few words.

If he was just a weak man, what use would Bai Luoyu have to him? So at this time, he had to show some strength that could stand shoulder to shoulder with him.

Seeing the glimmer in Bai Luoyu's eyes, Gu Nianchen raised his eyebrows slightly!

"I didn't expect the Fifth Prince to be so hidden. I was too blind!" Bai Luoyu clasped his fists, his heart not as calm as it appeared. "The Fifth Prince has been patient for many years, why is he now revealing his strength in front of me? After this, another force has emerged in the capital. How can I remain unscathed? The Crown Prince is incompetent, and the Third Prince is ruthless. Let's wait and see what the Fifth Prince's character is like before making a decision!"

[He has a good impression of you! Entering the probation period!]

[Needless to say, no matter which life, even though everything about Luo Yu has changed, the persistence in his heart will never change! No one understands him better than me!]

[Frog Fun… I hit it! The rumors are true, Nianchen-kun, you…]

【Noisy! 】

Block the voice of 218 again!

"General, thank you for your compliment. This is my greeting gift!"

"Deputy General Yan, collect the prey and move on! Fifth Prince, please!" Bai Luoyu ordered his men to collect the musk deer's body!

When Gu Nianchen saw Bai Luoyu accept the gift, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he walked in front without hesitation. Bai Luoyu followed behind on guard, and the deputy general and others followed far behind.

According to the wild hunting rules, subordinates cannot participate in the hunt. They can only take action after collecting the prey or when the master is in danger of life. The moment they take action, it also means the end of the hunt!

Gu Nianchen rode ahead, leisurely and contentedly, as if enjoying the scenery. Bai Luoyu, standing behind him, noticed that wherever Gu Nianchen rode, he barely touched any of the surrounding grass or trees, and made no sound at all!

Not only that, every time he spotted prey, Gu Nianchen had already shot it. All he had to do was send his deputy to collect the prey! Before long, the prey had almost filled a cart.

After walking for a while, Bai Luoyu finally couldn't help but speak: "Uh... Fifth Prince, this makes Luoyu feel a little ashamed! Why don't you take the prey and present it to His Majesty? Luoyu didn't contribute anything, so I don't deserve it!"

Bai Luoyu himself didn't realize that the way he referred to himself had changed slightly from "General" to "I" and then to "Luo Yu" during this brief time together!

"General, you have just promised me, why do you suddenly go back on your word? Do you dislike me for stealing your limelight? I just haven't done it for a long time. This is a rare opportunity, so I want to practice! Since you don't like it, then I will stop! I will do whatever you say, and I only hope you won't chase me away!" Gu Nianchen put away his bow and arrow, frowned slightly, lowered his eyes, and scratched the horse's mane on the horse as if he had been wronged!

"...That's not what I meant. Fifth Prince, you misunderstood!" Gu Nianchen's words, coupled with his aggrieved expression, left Bai Luoyu at a loss for words. In the past, he'd only dealt with rough-hewn men from the military camp. He'd never seen Gu Nianchen act like this before, and was speechless.

I didn't know how to explain it for a moment. I had clearly thought that the Fifth Prince had such a great discovery. If he presented it to His Majesty, he would definitely be rewarded, and perhaps even be reused. How could he misunderstand that I was trying to get rid of him just by opening my mouth?

"It's okay, General, please, I'll just follow you!" Gu Nianchen made a gesture of invitation, with the bow and arrow still hanging on the side, and no intention of picking it up.

Seeing this, Bai Luoyu had no choice but to set off, thinking of hunting more, leaving behind prey that would ensure he could get the bounty, and leaving the rest to Gu Nianchen.

What Gu Nianchen said was right. This bounty was very important to him. The military pay allocated by the national treasury was only enough for the minimum configuration of the army. When facing the enemy, if the soldiers had armor to protect themselves and held sharp weapons, they would get twice the result with half the effort. Therefore, he must get the bounty!

"Then the Fifth Prince, be careful!" Bai Luoyu led the way. As a general, his martial arts skills were unquestionable, but he did not have as strong perception as Gu Nianchen. He also gained a lot along the way!

Gu Nianchen seemed listless as he followed behind, but in fact he was more focused on sensing the position of the tiger beast!

The reason he teamed up with Bai Luoyu was, firstly, to protect his safety and prevent the Third Prince from getting close. Secondly, to ensure Bai Luoyu got enough prey to earn the bounty. Thirdly, he wanted the Tiger Beast as a stepping stone to participate in the fight for the throne!

Only by reaching the supreme position can he and Luo Yu sleep peacefully!

Finally, the traces of the tiger beast were found in the southwest direction. Gu Nianchen had an idea and used magic to change the position of the surrounding prey, luring Bai Luoyu towards the direction of the tiger beast!

[You cannot use spells to change the process. Once discovered, you will be judged as a failure and expelled! ]

218, who had just regained connection, shouted in protest!

[You didn't tell me, so this time it's your fault, it has nothing to do with me! ]

You didn't even give me a chance to remind you! I'm going to tell you the rules now, Nianchen-kun, listen carefully, and next time, don't say I didn't remind you! Rule 1:...

No time!

After saying that, he cut off contact again, leaving 218 disheveled in the wind!

How come everyone else's hosts are so obedient and motivated, but I'm so unlucky to have to deal with an unreasonable host I can't afford to offend... Woohoo! Heaven is so unfair!

Bai Luoyu moved along the direction designed by Gu Nianchen. The deputy general behind him was also very surprised. How come these preys seemed to have made an agreement and came to die one after another!

Just as the two were about to approach the range of the tiger beast, they finally saw the third prince, the protagonist of this world, in the hunting ground. It seems that although their appearance changed the original process, the third prince with good luck will still find the tiger beast!

The tiger is the king of beasts, and no emperor would dislike such a gift! Therefore, if any prince can present this auspicious gift to the emperor, he will be rewarded!

"When did General Bai become so close to my fifth brother that he was willing to stay by his side and protect him!" The third prince was surprised when he saw Bai Luoyu and Gu Nianchen approaching one after another.

Yesterday, Gu Nianchen was unable to carry anything and almost died in the lotus pond. How come he is a completely different person today? Was he hiding himself deeply before, or... what went wrong?
