Chapter 605 Fang Xiyue
After walking a few steps, Shu Yu remembered the girl behind him, and realized that she didn't even know her name.
She stopped and turned around.
They figured they would be working together for a while, so they needed to understand each other's basic situation.
When he turned around, he found the girl walking behind him, glancing at the bow and arrows on her back from time to time, her gaze... inexplicably complicated.
Shu Yu couldn't help but lift the quiver up a little, and the girl's eyes followed suit.
However, she didn't seem to notice that Shu Yu was turning her head to look at her.
Shu Yu, "..."
He seems a bit slow-witted. This won't do. If he's this sluggish in the deep mountains, something bad could happen.
Thinking about it, Shu Yu coughed lightly twice.
The girl snapped back to reality upon hearing the voice, looked up to meet Shu Yu's gaze, and immediately felt a little embarrassed. "I... I was just spacing out."
Shu Yu: "I can tell."
She started walking forward again, saying as she went, "My name is Lu Shuyu, what's your name?"
The girl hurriedly took a few steps to catch up with her, and this time walked beside her. Upon hearing this, she quickly said, "My name is Fang Xiyue, and I am fifteen years old."
He's a year older than her.
Shu Yu nodded, then glanced at the bow and arrow on her shoulder and asked, "I noticed you were looking at the bow and arrow earlier. Do you know how to use it?"
"No." Fang Xiyue visibly became frustrated when she said this. "I'm too stupid. My father taught me for a long time, but I don't know why, I can never aim accurately and hit the prey."
Shu Yu was taken aback by these words. "Your father taught you for a long time??"
Fang Xiyue was afraid that her father would look down on her, so she quickly explained, "Yes, my father is a hunter. I, although I'm not good at archery, don't worry, I've been hunting with my father since I was a child. I know everything except archery. I know how to set traps, I know the habits of prey, and I know how to avoid danger. Don't look at me because I'm thin and weak, I have no problem climbing mountains and trees."
She said a lot, but Shu Yu looked at her in surprise.
Holy crap, did she stumble upon a treasure?
She reached out her restless hand and pinched Fang Xiyue's arm. The latter looked at her blankly, not understanding why she was pinching herself for no reason.
Shu Yu silently withdrew her hand. Yes, she wasn't lying. She was very thin, but her muscles were very firm and felt very strong to the touch.
Those idiots in Team Five, they pushed such a talented person out; they'll regret it sooner or later.
Shu Yu originally thought that as long as she could run fast without making a sound, it would be fine for her to take care of her. Now it seems that not only will it be much easier for her, but she can also benefit from her.
Shu Yu's mood improved, and she chatted with Fang Xiyue as they walked.
The girl was a bit simple-minded, and Shu Yu managed to get all the details about her background in just a few words.
Although its origins are hardly a secret.
Fang Xiyue's family of three, including her parents, were exiled to Zhengdao Village. They arrived only three or four days earlier than Shu Yu and the others, so she was considered to have just arrived recently.
The Fang family originally lived a pretty good life. They had a skilled hunter, and Fang's mother was hardworking and capable. The family was doing very well.
They were just unlucky; while hunting, Fang's father dug up a ginseng root worth a thousand gold pieces.
Mr. Fang was a cautious man and dared not easily show the ginseng to others. He wanted to find a reliable medical clinic before making a move.
