Although the stream is not deep, there are palm-sized little crucian carp in places with aquatic plants. These crucian carp, though with many bones, make a fish soup that is incredibly delicious. Moreover, since it’s a spring outing, how can it be called such without fishing and eating some wild herbs? Gu Qiaoqiao and An Xiaotong set up the iron pot they brought again. There’s ready dry firewood, and this is an open area with no wind at the moment, so it’s necessary to start a fire to boil some water for everyone to drink. Xiao Wen took Shang Qing and Mu Xinxin to a nearby grassy patch to dig wild herbs. This season is the freshest time for wild herbs, and adding a handful to the fish soup, or blanching them to make a cold dish, is extremely tasty. This spring outing has made everyone very happy. So, there seems to be great interest in doing everything. As Shang Qing followed Xiao Wen in learning to identify wild herbs, she was also thinking about her plans with Dongfang Yu for the evening. Dongfang Yu said that the Purple Heart Orchid can only be dug up at night. During the day, there is strong sunlight, and if the roots are removed from that special soil, they won’t survive. If that’s the case, taking a dead one back is meaningless and would only upset Old Master Shang. Shang Qing felt that Dongfang Yu made sense, so she agreed. Dongfang Yu said he would wait for her next to her family’s car in the evening. They also had agreed on the time to meet. So at this moment, Shang Qing felt very happy. Cheerfully, she followed Xiao Wen to pick wild herbs. Dinner was naturally quite sumptuous. The boys all drank some alcohol. Xiao Wen, being straightforward by nature, also drank a bottle of beer. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ NoveI-Fire.ɴet Gu Qiaoqiao was a bit worried at first, but seeing Xiao Wen drink it like water, she stopped worrying. Everyone lit up a campfire. The roaring flames reflected on their young and vibrant faces, and Gu Qiaoqiao watched quietly. She genuinely felt somewhat envious of them. She also wanted to relax, but after all, it couldn’t compare to the carefree days of youth. However, watching was still very nice. It wasn’t until around eleven at midnight that everyone began to feel sleepy. Thus, Chu Chengfeng and Du Tian stayed on duty while the others went to rest in their tents. Ling Nan also drank quite a bit, but still remained clear-headed. After checking around with Xiao Wen and realizing everything was fine at Gu Qiaoqiao’s side, she was urged by Gu Qiaoqiao to go rest. Gu Qiaoqiao, Xiao Wen, and An Xiaotong shared a tent. Shang Qing and Mu Xinxin went to the small tent. The noisy night quieted down once again, and the previously ignored sounds from the forest began to emerge by the stream. Then suddenly, there seemed to be a purring sound of a cat nearby, Not loud, more like a lullaby. After a tiring day, nearly everyone was fast asleep. Chu Chengfeng stayed alert, adding dry wood to the campfire, and Du Tian was doing the same beside him. Among the five remaining guys, two of them would come to replace them in three hours, and the remaining one would keep watch with Chu Chengfeng until dawn. No choice, as Chu Chengfeng was the team leader, the boss after all. Perhaps due to being by the stream, large swathes of white mist appeared at some unknown time and soon enveloped this place. Quickly, they surrounded the area entirely, even the campfire was soon shrouded in the white mist. It’s quite normal for white mist to rise on mountain nights. Chu Chengfeng and Du Tian were well aware of this and had experienced it during previous outings, so they didn’t pay it much mind.
