Volume 1 Chapter 46 Returning to Find Yan'er
After all this trouble, the general's mansion, which was bustling in the past, is now deserted.
But no one cares, because in Shen Yin's heart, only his Yan'er is the most important.
After his parents passed away, Yan'er was the only motivation for him to live. Now, the emperor was afraid that his achievements would overshadow his authority, so he might as well retreat and look for the sunshine in his heart.
After Chen Yin got all the money from selling the business and the general's mansion, he turned around and took a few of his confidants to find Yan'er.
Even though everyone knew that the journey would be extremely difficult, no one cared.
After preparing half a month's worth of dry food, Chen Yinming brought ten people with him, each riding a good horse, and traveled hundreds of miles a day so that he could go and accompany his Yan'er earlier.
Although the journey was extremely dangerous, fortunately the men I brought with me were all good at martial arts, so they just had to sleep in the open air for a while, and everything else was fine!
"General, we have already traveled over a hundred miles today. The horses are very tired. Why don't we rest here?"
Chen Yin carefully looked at the surrounding terrain and found that this place was indeed more suitable for rest.
"Alright, let's all rest in this grove. Two people will go find some water, two will go gather some firewood, and the rest of you will stay here to observe the situation and then prepare to rest!"
Today is the fourth day that Chen Yin has brought everyone out. In the past four days, everyone has been trying their best to speed up every day. Tonight is the only night that they can rest early.
"There's a small spring not far from here, General. You can give the horses water."
"Let's take all the horses back and give them water and some grass!"
After everyone filled all the water bags with water, everyone washed up and the horses drank water.
Then they lit a bonfire and prepared to cook dinner!
"General, I'll go out for a walk. Maybe I can get some game." Chu Ze said as he came up to him.
"Okay, take your bow and arrows, and bring someone else with you. If anything unexpected happens, contact us immediately."
Chu Ze has always been good at martial arts, and because his family was poor when he was young, he could only follow the hunter to the mountains to hunt in order to make a living.
Therefore, being familiar with the habits of various game in the mountains, letting him hunt for game is the best choice.
The journey ahead would last at least eight or nine days. We couldn't possibly live on dry food every day, could we? Even the strongest body wouldn't be able to endure this!
Chu Ze went out hunting, and the others roasted a few sweet potatoes in the campfire and gave one to each person.
Since they were all rough men who had been marching and fighting, such delicious sweet potatoes were all burnt in their hands and tasted completely unappetizing. They could only eat them to fill their stomachs.
Soon, Chu Ze and another person came back with four hares and a pheasant!
"Chu Ze, you had a good harvest today?" A group of brothers who stayed behind joked.
Chu Ze smiled shyly and said, "Yeah, we're pretty lucky today, otherwise we'd have to eat dry food again tonight."
The pheasants and hares were handed over to others, and someone immediately went to clean them, boiled water, and plucked the fur, all in one go.
Although these processing methods seem to be extremely professional, in the end everyone can only choose to roast it.
Having experienced sweet potatoes, you can imagine how these people felt when they put them in front of others. They were simply too rough with their food, so they wasted such a delicious treat.
All we can say is that everyone is just barely able to have something meaty in their mouths.
"Oh, your skill in roasting rabbit is not good. Look at all the meat. It's burnt. How can I eat it?"
The other brother looked down on the man who was roasting rabbit.
The person being despised turned around and said, "If you have such good cooking skills, then you can grill it. It's good enough if it's cooked through. Is it burnt?"
Chu Ze silently looked at the burnt roasted rabbit meat. Although he felt a little distressed, he also knew that his brothers' cooking skills were really not up to par.
Although I am a good hunter, I have not yet learned how to roast the prey until it is golden brown and tender.
It’s really embarrassing to say this, but when I was a kid, if I hunted prey, I could only roast and eat it in the mountains, and I didn’t dare to bring it down from the mountain at all.
Not only are both my parents dead, but other relatives in my family are eager to eat my flesh and blood, all because they have to feed me.
Even if I eat very little every day and do a lot of work, my presence will make them feel that one more mouth to feed means one less mouth to feed, which means one day less of life.
So, when I was a little older, I would follow the hunter to the mountains to hunt every day.
But hunting is very time-consuming, and after hunting the game, you dare not take it home. If you take it home, you probably won’t be able to eat even a bite.
So I could only grab some firewood from the mountain and roast it. I didn’t care what it tasted like, as long as it was cooked and filled my stomach.
So until now, I still haven't learned how to roast wild game to make it taste better.
I got out of the car and looked at the brothers next to me. It was obvious that they were all in the same boat.
He looked at Chen Yin again and thought, forget it!
Although our general suffered a lot, there were always many people following him. It was not his turn to do these jobs, so it was normal that he didn't do it!
At this time, the voice looked at the things leaning against the dark mass and said, "Okay, don't be picky, just eat whatever you want to fill your stomach."
"How can you be so delicate? After you finish eating this meaty meal, you don't know where the next one will be!"
After hearing this, the subordinates agreed. Although everyone had money, it was indeed not easy to buy these things these days.
Plus, we all had to travel every day, so we thought it was okay. We picked up a knife, sliced it, and started eating.
While eating, Chen Yin thought that these rough men had to endure such hardships when they went out. He wondered how his little girl, who had lived a life of luxury since childhood, could endure such suffering now?
The more I thought about it, the more anxious I became. I wished I could grow wings and fly to her immediately.
But it's out of reach!
He had no choice but to lie down and stare at the bright moon, while pressing his ring.
While Su Muyan was on her way, she saw her ring light up.
He smiled knowingly and tapped the ring as a response.
When Shen Yin saw the ring light up, the depressed mood he had just felt was immediately replaced by joy.
