Crossing 70: Fish in the Pond Have Good News

Chapter 269 Preparing to enter the mountains

Jiang Yu picked up the small wooden sign and looked at it again and again, and finally kept the matter in mind.

Xue Li finally got some sweetness today. She returned to her room very satisfied, preparing to watch a sweet drama in the evening to cheer herself up.

Three days passed quickly. Originally, the team had invited Jiang Yu alone, but Fu Biao felt bored and applied to join the winter hunt.

Wu Aiqing and Xue Li prepared dry food and a lot of brown sugar and ginger juice for the two.

Although the brown sugar ginger liquid will freeze, you can still scoop out some paste from the small ceramic jar with a wooden spoon after warming it up. Then mix it with hot water. Drinking a bowl of hot, spicy ginger soup during your break can effectively prevent colds.

Three days passed in a flash, during which time Yi Chi came to see Jiang Yu again.

Still outside the wall, Yi Chi brought her the braised pork and told her to chop it into small pieces and put some in the pancakes when baking. In addition, there were spicy sausages and dried meat, which Jiang Yu put in a cloth bag. Not much, just enough for her to improve her diet.

"Be careful when you sleep." Yi Chi was really worried, especially when going out with people from the team, he always felt that he would be stabbed in the back.

Jiang Yu carried the bag and patted his shoulder with his free left hand. "Don't worry, Fu Biao and I will go together. We can take turns to be on duty at night."

When Yi Chi heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief, "Great. It would be great if Fu Biao could be with you."

Jiang Yu smiled and said, "Besides, even those people in the team may not be able to beat me."

"That's not what I meant. But doesn't the old saying go that those who die are all good at swimming?" Yi Chi looked at her with gentleness and tenderness. "No matter how powerful you are, I really can't rest assured that you will go out with that group of people. And you must be more vigilant. There are more weapons in the team than just that one gun. I remember that when I was a child, my family had a lot of guns, which were provided to the guards. Afterwards, I never saw those guns again."

"Do you suspect that they hid all the guns? That shouldn't be the case. They didn't use them at such a critical moment when the wolves were coming down the mountain." Jiang Yu felt that those things should not be in the team. They might have been sold by them, or there was some force behind them, and they were taken away by those people after the incident was over.

Yi Chi shook his head, "I don't know either, but no matter what, you must be careful of them."

"I got it." Jiang Yu nodded. In fact, even if Yi Chi didn't say it, she would still be on guard against that group of people. After all, they had a criminal record, and if they failed to shirk the blame, they would keep blaming others. It would be strange if Jiang Yu could treat them well.

Yi Chi looked around and suddenly stretched out his hands to hug Jiang Yu lightly, without even touching the other's body. Then, just like last time, he ran away frantically.

"Hahaha~" Jiang Yu was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud at the person running away.

She once again climbed over the wall with a smile on her face and returned to her room.

The next morning, Jiang Yu and Fu Biao left the educated youth site with the things prepared by their friends.

At the foot of Yaoer Mountain, the participants for this winter hunt have gradually arrived.

Jiang Yu and Fu Biao, wearing rabbit-skin hats, approached from a distance and found that they were all young people.

"It seems like they are all from the militia company." Fu Biao looked around and then said to Jiang Yu.

"All the people in the militia company have left. So who should we contact if there is any problem in the brigade?" Moreover, if one or two of these young people died in the mountains, it would be a huge loss to the construction brigade.

"I don't understand their thoughts, maybe they just want the young people to have a chance to train." After all, the old hunters are dead, and now the team can only rely on these young people. Fu Biao thinks this is what they are planning.

Jiang Yu shrugged. "Anyway, I can only guarantee that they won't die on the mountain. As for whether they get injured or not, it all depends on their own abilities."

"That's enough. If they need your close protection, why would they go up the mountain? They can just train at the brigade headquarters." Fu Biao felt that it was enough to keep their lives. It didn't matter if they got injured. They would recover anyway.

At this time, Zhuang Shouren saw them and hurried over to greet them.

Jiang Yu and Fu Biao stopped and waited for him to come over.

Zhuang Shouren looked at Fu Biao with a smile, "Fu Zhiqing, I'm sorry to bother you on this trip as well."

"No trouble, I'm just a supporting role. I'm going to climb the mountain with Jiang Yu for some exercise." Fu Biao didn't want to get into any trouble. Besides being bored, his reason for going out this time was more importantly because his friends were worried about the people in the team, and he could help keep an eye on them.

Yes, I just feel uneasy.

The last time the wolves came down the mountain, Jiang Yu's obvious behavior of letting the water flow out was so obvious that if the villagers had realized this, they would probably have put the blame on Jiang Yu again.

After all, isn't this a ready-made reason? Why didn't Jiang Yu kill those wolves? Maybe she raised them... Of course, it would be best if she didn't find out.

But now the team has suddenly asked Jiang Yu to help with the winter hunting, so we have to be on guard.

Zhuang Shouren chuckled, then turned to Jiang Yu with a serious look on his face, "Jiang Yu, I know there were some misunderstandings and conflicts between us before. But this time I hope you can temporarily forget about these unpleasant things. I am really worried about these idiots, so I have to trouble you to help take care of them."

"I can only ensure that they keep their limbs intact and come back alive." Jiang Yu was a little indifferent, but since she had received the reward from the team, she would do what she should do.

"That's good." Zhuang Shouren seemed relieved, and handed a homemade gun to Jiang Yu, "Take this, do you know how to use it?"

Jiang Yu glanced at Fu Biao, who nodded slightly.

"I can use it." Jiang Yu said casually.

"Okay. I'll go and give them some more instructions." Zhuang Shouren turned and left.

Jiang Yu looked at the rifle in his hand and exchanged glances with Fu Biao, somewhat confused.

Fu Biao reached out and took the gun, weighed it in his hand, then lowered his head and began to check the details. After reading it from beginning to end, he handed the gun back to Jiang Yu, "No problem for now."

"What problem would that be?" Jiang Yu had never seen such an old firearm, so he didn't understand.

"It might explode or something. I'll check the bullet later." Fu Biao replied.

"He didn't give me extra bullets." Jiang Yu was puzzled.

Fu Biao raised his eyebrows, "Let me check the bullets in the gun later."

"Okay." Jiang Yu nodded.

The two stood aside, waiting for the villagers to say goodbye to their children.

Those people pulled their precious baby and gave him many instructions, but they had to look at Jiang Yu all the time, telling him to take on any danger and not to rush forward stupidly.

Jiang Yu heard it all clearly and could only say "hehe" to it.
