Lighting a bonfire is not a necessary step for surviving in the wild, but it has many benefits.
Not only can it be used for cooking, but it can also add light to scare away potential wild beasts.
Pots, pans, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, and chopping boards were laid out, and Chu Qi cleaned them.
Then he took a kitchen knife to process the grass carp, cut open the belly, took out the internal organs and threw them into the river, scraped off the scales and other inedible parts, and the fish was cleaned.
When the internal organs and other things fell into the river, other unknown small fish in the river came over to grab the food, completely unaware of the danger on the shore.
Fortunately, Chu Qi was not interested in the little fish. She reached out and teased the little fish a few times, and the little fish retreated away.
Chu Qi plans to make boiled fish, grilled fish, and fried bacon tonight.
Eat with white steamed buns and dumplings.
After feeding the horses, Lin Yue wanted to come over to help, but she had never learned any cooking skills and didn't even know how to watch the fire.
She frowned and carefully observed how the young master did it. She quickly learned it and started to practice.
After dinner, Lin Yue volunteered to wash the dishes and also washed the kettle he used to rinse his mouth at noon.
Chu Qi took advantage of the early hours to boil water and fill ten kettles.
At this time, the people here don’t really care whether the water is boiled or not. They usually just fill it with cold water.
There are very few people who are as particular as Chu Qi.
After filling the kettle, Chu Qi entered the carriage and sorted out the supplies.
The carriage was spacious enough to accommodate several adults sleeping inside.
Chu Qi is tall and has long legs, so she can rest well inside.
Chu Qi used a curtain to divide the carriage into two temporary resting places, intending to let each of them sleep on one side.
There were no tents in that era, and Chu Qi had no intention of being unconventional and building a tent himself.
The only problem was bathing, so they used an oversized curtain to separate the space into a small space for Linyue to go in and take a bath.
I bought a wooden barrel and there is no problem taking a bath.
While Lin Yue was taking a bath in the river, Chu Qi also took off her clothes and washed directly in the river.
After a day of traveling, it is inevitable that there will be some sweat on the body, so after taking a shower and feeling refreshed, Chu Qi sighed comfortably.
After taking a bath, I washed my clothes by the river.
Just wash it clean and then dry it with internal force, it is very convenient.
Lin Yue had never washed clothes before. The first time she washed, she was worried that she wouldn’t wash them clean enough. After a long time, she finally finished.
Chu Qi took it and also used her inner strength to dry it.
The sunset disappeared completely and night fell.
In the distance, there were sounds of wild wolves howling, which seemed to be hunting horns.
Lin Yue sat on a small stool and kept warm by the fire.
The night was chilly, especially outdoors, which was much colder than indoors. She was frail and not wearing thick clothes. Without the candlelight, she would have frozen to death.
Chu Qi was strong and sturdy, and was not afraid of the cold at all. He was still wearing a thin black suit, sitting not far away with his eyes lowered, sharpening his sword.
This is the long sword that the original master's family equipped to each death warrior.
It is of high quality and, when combined with the original body's skills and internal force, the sword can cut through iron like mud.
After polishing, Chu Qi put the sword back into the scabbard.
There was no speech for a moment. Lin Yue carefully stole a glance at the young man's profile and felt that he was handsome in every way.
***
Capital city, Prince Chen’s residence.
A tall and strong man was sitting in the study. Many candles were lit in the study, and the room was as bright as day.
Looking at the letter in front of him, the man's brows were deep, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Suddenly, a soldier in black uniform flew in from the window, landed in front of the man, knelt on one knee and said respectfully:
"Your Majesty."
"Any news about number seven?" the man said in a deep voice, rich and sexy.
"Your Majesty, there has been no news from No. 7 so far."
It has been about two months since No. 7 went out on a mission and he has not returned yet, without even a single letter from a carrier pigeon.
"Dead?" The man raised his eyebrows.
Going on a mission is inherently dangerous, so it's not surprising to die.
"Then, promote another one..." he ordered calmly.
"Your Highness!" Another assassin jumped in.
"Speak." The man was interrupted and was unhappy. He glanced at the assassin on the ground, as if to say that if he dared to talk nonsense, he should go and get punished.
The second assassin remained calm and said respectfully, "I met No. 7 at the city gate today."
"He drove out of the city in a carriage."
"Since you are in the capital, why don't you come back to report?" Xuanyuan Nan asked.
The second assassin said, "I don't know."
Xuanyuan Nan was in deep thought. For a moment, he didn’t think about it from the perspective of “Number Seven betrayed him”.
There is no other reason, because the death warriors who can stand out from the devilish training of the forces behind Xuanyuan Nan are very strong in both martial arts and loyalty to Xuanyuan Nan.
Will not betray the master easily.
"Has Ke Kun gone back to the capital again?" Xuanyuan Nan muttered to himself, knowing that it was useless to ask these fools. After a moment's hesitation, he gave the order:
"Pass the order and bring back the seven men. Regardless of whether they have completed their mission or not, they will go to the punishment hall to receive their punishment."
"yes!"
The first assassin, assassin number one, received the order, "I'll take my leave."
He left quickly and soon found assassins No. 11 and No. 12. "You two, go and call back No. 7. He's probably heading southeast. You two should search carefully in this direction."
He whistled toward the sky, and a palm-sized bird with a completely black body flew down chirping.
After showing the bird a picture of Number Seven, Number One told the bird to clear a path in the sky, and if it saw Number Seven, it should lead Eleven and Twelve to find Number Seven.
The professionally trained black bird was able to understand such complex instructions.
It chirped a few times and nodded in a very human way.
Flap your wings a few times.
Number One fed it a bloody pill.
The bird then flapped its wings and flew away.
"I obey your command!" Number 11/12 responded respectfully and quickly rushed to the direction given by Number 1.

On the other side, Chu Qi, who was unaware that he was being targeted, remained calm and prepared to go to bed.
Lin Yue had slept during the day and was not sleepy at all now. It was just right that Chu Qi asked her to pay attention to any movement around her and wake her up if there was any movement.
"Okay, please rest assured, I will always pay attention."
Lin Yue was entrusted with an important task and nodded solemnly, as if what he was about to do was not to keep watch but to go to the battlefield.
Chu Qi found it funny and couldn't help but stretch out her big hand and rub the little girl's head: "I'm asleep."
Chu Qi was already 28 years old before she traveled through time. Although the body she traveled through was young, it was also 21 years old.
Looking at Lin Yue, who was less than fifteen years old, there was no love between men and women at all. He simply treated her as a younger sister.
Lin Yue foolishly touched the top of her head that had been touched by the young master, and her beautiful face blushed tenderly.
My son.....touched my head...
The girl's heart was pounding with excitement.
