While the others were unpacking, Chu Xingyue had already caught four or five fish with lightning speed. These fish looked quite big, each weighing more than two pounds, enough for one person. Two girls could share one fish. She and Chu Jiaojiao had big appetites, so they bent down and caught a few more naive fish that didn't know the dangers of human nature.
When everyone arrived at the riverbank, Chu Xingyue had already killed most of the fish a little further downstream.
For some reason, the person who distributed the supplies put a packet of salt and pepper and cumin in Chu Jiaojiao's bag. When Chu Jiaojiao saw this, she smiled, knowing that she wouldn't go hungry on the way.
This is why Chu Xingyue looked for a water source first. Where there is a river, there are bound to be fish. There would be no danger in the forest, and there would definitely be no large animals. However, catching some rabbits and snakes would be possible.
After washing up, everyone saw Chu Xingyue squatting by the river. Everyone was very happy and ran back, not letting Zhang Cheng wait behind them.
Some were gathering branches, some were searching for firewood, and others were looking for anything useful in their bags.
You can't light fires in the woods, but you can light them near the river. After you finish eating, put them out immediately. If you're careful, there shouldn't be any major problems.
The fish was grilled until crispy, sprinkled with salt and pepper and cumin. The taste was simply amazing, and the irresistible aroma made the waiting group's mouths water.
The twenty-ninth team following behind also smelled the fragrance.
"Who are these people in Team Nine? Not only are they good at fighting, but they can also cook. The aroma is amazing."
"Captain, let's go get some too. Anyway, this river doesn't belong to anyone, anyone can use it." A member of Team 29 couldn't help but ask Ge Jun, smelling the aroma.
"Does anyone have any seasonings in their bag?"
We checked everything before setting off. Apart from compressed biscuits, who has these? They're not very useful for marching.
But now it's very useful. Who would have thought that the first test they would encounter would be their appetite?
It smells so good.
"You guys rest where you are, I'll go ask their captain if we can borrow some."
The others eagerly awaited the captain's arrival to negotiate with Du Kangli, the captain of Team Nine.
"Oh? You want to borrow it from us?"
Du Kangli remained silent while looking at Ge Jun in front of him, but Wei Haiyang was the first to raise a question.
“Captain Ge, the items belong to Chu Jiaojiao. Resource sharing can only be done within our team, not with you.”
Wei Haiyang crossed his arms over his chest.
The others were also watching him intently.
Ge Jun had never felt more embarrassed than at this moment.
But he also knew that everyone was now a competitor, and there was no reason for him to help others unconditionally.
If it were him, he would also consider whether or not to help.
"You can have what you want."
After finishing her meal, Chu Xingyue used her dagger to dig a hole and buried the fish bones in the soil. She then stood up and looked at Ge Jun, asking him a question.
Ge Jun's eyes lit up when he heard Chu Xingyue's words.
He knew that although Du Kangli was the captain of Team Nine, Chu Xingyue had a lot of influence in the team.
"In exchange for the clues you've obtained, you have two minutes to consider. You can go back and discuss it with your team."
Without a second thought, Ge Jun turned around and went back to the team. Although he was the captain, the clues concerned everyone on the team, and he couldn't make decisions for others.
Two minutes passed quickly.
The girls from Team Nine had all finished eating, and everyone followed Chu Xingyue's example by burying the bones in the mud.
Although they didn't know what it meant to do this, they figured they couldn't go wrong by just following along.
“My team members all agree that our current clue is an incomplete map.”
