Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 1946  Fishing Challenge

Splash! Splash! Long Qian Xing took the long wood from the nearby forest and then he used his knife to make sure that the tip was sharp before he rushed to the water, trying to find any fishes that was swimming near the shore. There was no tfor him to make any exquisite weapon, so a sharp wooden spear had to make do for now. Nan Hua didn't even bother making any weapon as she went to the water. Her hand took out a knife that she carried with her and a rope. She tied the rope to the back of the knife, which in the design itself had part that could be used to tie it up.

It was one of her assassination weapon that she always carried with her. Even if her current identity is a general from Fei Yang Kingdom, she would never forget that she has always been an assassin. The weapons she carried reflected this profession of hers the most. Swish! Jleb!

The knife pierced through a fish and with a jerk, Nan Hua pulled the fish to her. They didn't carry anything to put the fishes, so she simply used a needle and plucked her hairs to use as treads, treading the fish and tied it on her back. After that, she continued to do the sfor the next ones. Her movements were fast and swift.

Every few seconds, there would be one more fish on her back. Splash! Long Qian Xing was on the other side of the beach and also moved very quickly, taking these fishes with a stab and then continued with the next ones. After it was done, there were already several fishes on his spear and Long Qian Xing went to make a new spear. He turned to look at Nan Hua and his lips twitched when he saw the stack of fishes on her back, hanging neatly there. 'No wonder she asked if there's any limit to the weapon.'

Seeing her action, Long Qian Xing could guess that her weapon was very suitable to catch fishes. Or it was more like, she modified her weapon and if she were to use it this way, it was very fast and suitable. 'I'm not going to lose so easily, though.'

Long Qian Xing proceeded to make a few more spears and then rushed to the water once more. The two of them caught fishes for a long period of tbefore they finally stopped. The thad cand the two of them cto the beach, both had a stack of fishes and their clothes were all wet with their recent activity. Nan Hua took off her outer robe and put it on the ground, letting it dry with the cold wind. Anyway, she had no problem at all even if she wear thin clothes. Long Qian Xing also did the sand then looked at the large number of fishes on Nan Hua's side. He was silent. Even after he tried his best to be faster, he still couldn't match Nan Hua. Without them even need to count the number of fishes, he knew for sure that he had lost "How did you hang them?" Long Qian Xing asked. "Threads," Nan Hua replied. "I don't bring any thread, so I used my hair as substitute."

Long Qian Xing's lips twitched and then looked at Nan Hua's long har. Considering that she had long hair, it was indeed not that strange to make such substitution. It was just that he felt a bit weird when he thought about it. "You're really determined to win, aren't you?" Long Qian Xing asked helplessly. "One should give it their all in a challenge," Nan Hua replied back and then smiled. "So, Brother Long, does the bet still counts?"

"Of course it counts." Long Qian Xing laughed and then pulled Nan Hua closer so that they could warm up together. "Want to tellnow or later after I made sfire to roast the fishes?"

"I would rather keep this request for later," Nan Hua said. "Don't worry, I won't ask anything excessive."

"Aright." Long Qian Xing nodded, not caring about it. "Let's cook the fishes now."

"There are too many of them. Do you want to call someone to pick them to the base first?"

"Nan Si is here." Nan Hua pointed into the distance. "And there's also your little servant Long Ai Nian with him. They can bring these fishes back."

Long Qian Xing was not surprised when he heard that Nan Si was there. He had known that Nan Si was one of the few dark guards around Nan Hua who was responsible for her safety. Not that she couldn't protect herself, but she just had someone who could help her from tto time. What surprised him slightly was that Long Ai Ning was with Nan Si again. He had caught the sight of this girl watching them from a distance and ignored her because he felt rather amused with her action. After all, she didn't actually bother them and actually kept her distance rather far. If he had to say, she looked like a little fan that was watching her idol's relationship. Even though Long Xu kept on reprimanding Long Ai Ning, his words seemed to enter her left ear and then cthrough to the right ear. She didn't seem to pay any heeds to his words in the slightest bit. Long Qian Xing smiled. "Then, let them cand pick the fishes." "Ok." Nan Hua turned to look at Nan Si and made gesture for him to follow and after that, she nodded at Long Qian Xing. "Let's get swoods to make fire in the meantime."

"Yes." Long Qian Xing nodded and held Nan Hua's hand once more. In the distance, Nan Si saw the gesture Nan Hua's made and her pointing at the stack of fishes around her and sighed internally, but he still stood up, ready to execute her order.
