Chapter 630 Cooperation
As soon as she stepped outside, Shu Yu told Fang Xiyue about what Ma Lu had told her the night before about going into the deep mountains to hunt tigers.
Fang Xiyue was stunned when she heard this, "Fight a tiger?"
She had never thought of this before and was momentarily at a loss for what to do. "So, Ayu, what do you think?"
"I'd like to give it a try. I'm not very interested in other rewards, but the reward of being able to take two days off to leave Zhengdao Village and go out for a trip is still very tempting to me."
Fang Xiyue paused for a moment. Actually, the prospect of taking two days off wasn't very tempting for her. She wasn't even familiar with Zhengdao Village, let alone going anywhere else. However, the reward of more food and even silver after killing the tiger was something she really needed.
The Fang family is now truly destitute. Only in the last couple of days, with her and A-Yu working together well, have they managed to hunt a few more animals, enough to exchange for some goods. But in Zhengdao Village, there aren't many families who can exchange goods, and the quantities are very small.
If she had money, she could ask someone to buy some necessities in town or county.
Moreover, with the money, they would be able to pay back the money they owed the government.
As she thought about it, Fang Xiyue was also tempted.
So she looked up, her eyes flickering slightly, and asked, "Shall we go?"
"Don't rush to make a decision. Ma Lu and the others won't be going into the mountains for another three days. Go back tonight and ask your parents first." If Fang Xiyue's parents disagree, she won't be able to get out.
"All right."
The two talked as they walked to the foot of the mountain.
Then, Shu Yu discovered that the same scene as yesterday was happening behind her again.
Several more teams followed behind them.
Clearly, they couldn't use the same trick again today. Even if they lingered on the perimeter for half an hour, these people wouldn't fall for it again.
Fortunately, someone quickly stepped forward and said to Shu Yu, "Miss Lu, would you like to go into the mountains together and hunt a big game?"
It was Ma Lu who spoke. Although Shu Yu and Fang Xiyue had not yet agreed to go into the mountains to hunt tigers together in three days, it did not prevent them from getting to know each other's methods in advance, assessing each other's abilities, and working out their personalities.
Shu Yu thought for a moment, exchanged a glance with Fang Xiyue, and then agreed.
They quickly followed Ma Lu and the others into the deep mountains. Seeing this, the others had no choice but to abandon their plans to continue following them and went to other places with their respective groups.
Once inside the deep mountains, Shu and Yu barely spoke a word to each other.
With three teams leading the way, the two took the opportunity to observe the terrain and environment of the area more closely.
Ma Lu glanced at them from time to time. Seeing that they seemed to have no room to maneuver, he thought for a moment, then gave the others a look, telling them to hold back for the time being.
He realized that several members of his team were very eager to perform in front of the two girls.
Although his face was expressionless and he didn't say anything, he was full of energy.
But that won't do. He didn't bring the two girls here for them to perform; he wanted to know their abilities.
After Ma Lu's warning, the other team members finally calmed down after taking down a sheep and stopped charging forward.
Shu Yu was always perceptive and understood immediately.
Perfect timing! She'd pretty much finished surveying the terrain; it was time to get to work. They weren't there to gain experience or hide behind someone.
Shu Yu tugged at Fang Xiyue, who immediately nodded and began to carefully examine the traces on the ground.
