Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower



"We should know that it's impossible to compare with General Xing."

"Indeed."

The soldiers sighed at themselves and began to fish. They already knew Long Qian Xing's ability, so they didn't want to waste their time to challenge him again. Those who dared to try challenging Long Qian Xing had already earned their reward: harsher training that could make one cry bitterly.

They didn't want to repeat that kind of thing.

Jleb!

"I got another one."

"Put it here."

Even though there was such a miserable comparison, these soldiers were still busy fishing with all their might. There was no way they wouldn't do that. After all, their plan was to eat more meat.

For these soldiers who had been tortured by eating dry ration, meat is a very tempting option.

Splash!

Long Qian Xing and Nan Hua were both busy to fish, not paying attention to each other. This area had a lot of fishes and the two's martial arts allowed them to be able to hit the fishes accurately.

Splashing the water, Long Qian Xing turned to the side and saw Nan Hua was staring at the fish in front of her with the spear ready. Her eyes were focused and in the next moment, her hand moved quickly to thrust the spear to the fish below.

Splash! Jleb!

Another fish was caught.

It was said that serious people were the most attractive and Long Qian Xing had to admit that when Nan Hua was serious, she also looked very attractive. Added with her clothes that was partially wet with water due to the water splashing, she looked rather seductive.

Long Qian Xing stared at Nan Hua for a while before pulling his eyes away.

He felt that the more he stayed with Nan Hua, the more he couldn't restrain his desire. But the moment he thought that Nan Hua is still underage, the raging flames were like being poured by a basin of cold water.

The law in this era might be different.

But Long Qian Xing was more influenced by the law in his previous world and still think that 18 years old is the adult age.

He had no interest to commit a crime.

  The only good thing was that the makeup Nan Hua used was not messed up by her activities. If her makeup was gone, it was estimated that her flawless face would be shown and the soldiers would be able to find out that Nan Hua is a girl.

That would be quite upsetting.

Long Qian Xing pushed the thought back and focused more on the activity they were currently doing.

Splash!

After some time, Nan Hua stopped. She glanced at the bucket filled with fishes and then at the river. This river was filled with fishes, which meant that the environment was really good for their development.

However, if the people who were living wanted to eat well, it would be better for them to start fishing farming. That way, they would be able to control their own fishes and still earn steady supply.

Then again, Nan Hua didn't know that much about farming.

She could only relay this thought to others who were more professional and experienced. "It should be enough. The fishes can be shared by others too."

"We catch more than necessary." Long Qian Xing looked at the bucket with amusement. The two of them could easily catch these fishes. Even if they couldn't finish all of them, they could still eat it tomorrow after drying the meat.

Nan Hua looked at the bucket and replied calmly, "Share with the other soldiers."

The other soldiers could catch more fishes than the two of them just based on their number. But there were a lot of soldiers under Long Qian Xing. In the end, the amount of meat distributed for each and every single one of them wouldn't be enough to fill their belly.

"How many did you catch?" Long Qian Xing asked casually. He also knew that catching all the fishes in this river was an unrealistic thought. Besides, he didn't want to deplete the entire resources of this area.

"I think 14." Nan Hua looked at the bucket and do mental calculation before nodding.

"Oh, I only got 12." Long Qian Xing chuckled. She's faster than him, so the number of fishes at the end didn't amount as much as Nan Hua. Besides, Nan Hua also started earlier and he got distracted slightly in the middle….

*cough*

There shouldn't be anyone who see his embarrassed situation, so Long Qian Xing would never mention this matter ever again.

"Wait, Commander, did you lose?"

"Really?"

"Does it mean that we'll be exempted from additional training?"

Despite having some distance between them, the soldiers were all trained very well. They could hear what these two were talking about even though they were a distance away from them.

Nan Hua heard their words and glanced at Long Qian Xing. It seemed that none of his soldiers could beat him in normal times?

"Adjutant Nan is not my subordinate." Long Qian Xing looked at the rowdy soldiers and sneered. "So, you all will instead get double training."

"What?"

"Noooooooooo!"

"Commander, I mean General, have mercy on us!"

"We can't stand having so much training like that?"

The soldiers were wailing. They knew how bad it would be for them if they have to experience double training under Long Qian Xing. All these times, they had already suffered a lot when they had to train under Long Qian Xing. Now, they didn't have any other choice but to listen to his words and might end up in worse situation.

How bad would things be, ah?

Long Qian Xing shook his head. "Behave well and there wouldn't be any additional training."

"Yes, General!"

"We behaved well!"

"Yes, yes!"

The soldiers quickly promised that they would behave well and not do anything weird. No one wanted to try their luck and possibly caused their commander to increase their training more. After all, their commander could still cancel that order.
