Chapter 235: Annihilation of the Black Tiger Camp (Part 1)
Lin Shen and his companions were not in a hurry to go to the Black Tiger Village first. Instead, they went to the market to get some dry food, drinking water, and some salt.
Qi Nongxia had never traveled far and had no experience in this area, so she didn't know what this meant.
Lin Shen told her that when traveling, it was essential to have a supply of food and water, and that salt was essential for the human body. Otherwise, she would die of thirst and starvation before anything else. After making all the necessary preparations, the group left the town from the north.
They didn't walk far until they entered a mountain. As they walked, Qi Nongxia asked, "Master, four sisters, what are you going to do?"
Lin Shen always felt something strange when he heard how Qi Nongxia addressed the five of them: Qi Nongxia called me Master, and Ling'er and the other four sisters, and it always felt like there was a generation gap between them.
Anu wanted to laugh, but she held it back. Lin Shen coughed and said, "From now on, you have to call them Master's Wife, understand?"
Anu immediately refused to accept it. Firstly, although everyone knew and accepted the relationship between Lin Shen and Zhao Linger, they had not yet married, so calling her "Master's Wife" was a bit inappropriate.
Besides, Zhao Linger and the others were only a few years older than Qi Nongxia, so when she called her "Master's Wife", it immediately felt like there was a generation difference between them.
I immediately said, "No, if you call me that, it makes me sound old."
At this time, Lin Yueru said, "This is indeed a problem. Anos is Nong Xia's master.
Considering the relationship between the four of us and Anos, calling her sister is a generation gap;
Calling her "Master's Wife" feels a bit old, and besides, the age difference between us and Nong Xia is not that big."
Lin Shen turned his head to glance at Qi Nongxia, rolled his eyes and pondered for a while, then sighed and said, "Forget it, this is also the trouble I asked for. Well, let's call each other names.
You should continue to call Ling'er and the others "sisters." Although I feel like I've grown up a lifetime without knowing why, there's nothing I can do about it.
As they walked, it was noon and Lin Shen could already hear the stomach rumblings of Zhao Linger and the others.
So they found a place with shade to rest. Zhao Linger distributed food and water, but there was no portion for Lin Shen. Lin Shen jumped onto a tree to keep watch.
Qi Nongxia looked puzzled and asked, "Sisters, why don't you give some to the master?"
Lin Yueru glanced at Lin Shen on the tree and said, "Anos is like that. He often doesn't eat or drink. If he doesn't have a big loss of spiritual power, he can even go without sleep for several days and nights.
Sister Nongxia, you may not know that Anos stayed with you all night last night."
Qi Nongxia blinked, unable to believe her ears, and said, "Is there such a person? What kind of physique is this?"
Jiang Wan'er said, "When we first met him, we were just like you. After getting to know him for a while, we found that it was indeed true. And he seemed happy to keep watch for us."
After a while, Anu looked up and found that Lin Shen was gone. He immediately looked around and said, "Where is Brother Anos? Has anyone seen him?"
Zhao Linger, Lin Yueru, Jiang Waner, and Qi Nongxia immediately looked around, but couldn't find any trace of Lin Shen. Lin Yueru said, "That guy, he wouldn't go to the Black Tiger Village alone!"
Qi Nongxia was immediately confused and said, "No way, without anyone to lead the way, how could Master know the location of the Black Tiger Village?"
Jiang Wan'er thought for a moment and said, "It's hard to say. Your master is a man who shares good fortune with everyone and shoulders difficulties on his own. He's capable of wiping out the Black Tiger Camp alone."
At this time, a voice was heard not far away: "Who said I went to the Black Tiger Village?"
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and found that it was Lin Shen who had returned, holding a dozen fish in his hands.
Zhao Linger said, "Brother Anos, where have you been? We were so worried."
Lin Shen picked up the fish in his hand and said, "I just sensed there's a river nearby with a lot of fish, so I went to catch some. Let's have some meat too."
Qi Nongxia said, "Master, you are really something. You didn't even tell us that you were going fishing. The four sisters thought you were going to fight the bandits alone."
Lin Shen said, "Okay, let's hurry up. Let's grill the fish while it's still fresh."
Anu cheered, "Great, we have grilled fish to eat."
Lin Yueru said, "Okay, Anu, come and help, otherwise you won't get a share."
So everyone started to get busy. Lin Shen used his ring to conjure up a small knife, gutted the fish and took out the internal organs.
Zhao Linger and Anu picked up some branches, piled them together and lit a fire. Lin Yueru and Jiang Wan'er simply trimmed some branches to use as skewers for grilling fish, and then threaded the fish.
Everyone placed the skewered fish in front of the fire. Lin Shen simply sprinkled some salt on it and watched the surface of the fish gradually change from silver-white to golden yellow.
The oil on the fish skin began to seep out, making a "sizzling" sound, and at the same time, wisps of green smoke emerged. The aroma of the fish slowly spread, making people salivate.
After the fish meat turned completely golden, Lin Shen said, "Okay, that's it."
Anu couldn't wait to pick up a string of fish and said, "I'll eat it first."
Lin Shen looked at Anu with dead eyes and said, "You little greedy cat, aren't you afraid of getting burned? The conditions are limited, so I can only do this much."
Anu took a bite and was so burned by the fish meat that he kept saying, "Hot, hot, hot!" After a while, he said, "Fragrant, fragrant, fragrant!"
Zhao Linger, Lin Yueru, Jiang Waner and Qi Nongxia each took out a skewer of grilled fish, blew on it, took a bite, and said in unison, "Delicious." Lin Shen also picked up a skewer of grilled fish and started eating.
After a quick meal, all the fish Lin Shen caught were eaten up.
Qi Nongxia said, "Master, your craftsmanship is really good. How did you do it?"
Lin Shen said, "Before I met Ling'er, Yueru and the others, I had always lived alone, so I had to do a lot of things myself to make ends meet. I developed these life skills little by little."
At this time, Anu interrupted and said, "Sister Nongxia, you don't know that Brother Anos is a very good cook.
One day, let him do that for you...that...that...
(He pats his forehead) Oh, that boiled cabbage, rich chicken, and three-cup chicken. They're so delicious."
Lin Shen was speechless and said, "Anu, you think I'm the chef of the restaurant, and you even ordered dishes for me."
Everyone burst into laughter when they heard this. Lin Shen stood up and said, "Are you all full and satisfied?" (Everyone responded with a "hmm") Then let's continue our journey to find the Black Tiger Village.
So everyone prepared to set off. Lin Shen kicked up a pile of dirt and put out the fire. Qi Nongxia asked, "Master, what do you mean by this?"
Lin Shen said, "It's very simple. If the fire is not put out in time, the sparks might fly into the bushes and set them on fire."
Qi Nongxia said "Oh~~" and Lin Shen said, "This is essential experience for venturing into the martial arts world. You'll understand it after traveling a few times."
Everyone continued to walk towards the mountains, looking for traces of the Black Tiger Village.
