524: Follow the instructions above.

"Instructor Xiao, we just saw many Tibetan antelopes at the bottom of the cliff, but they ran too fast."

"Instructor Xiao, can we try using your crossbow?"

Hearing the Soldiers' words, Instructor Xiao agreed.

She led them to a nearby spot, took a wooden board, and had someone nail it up.

Instructor Xiao taught for a while, and the Team Members' comprehension ability was also very high.

Soon, they got the hang of it and tried it out.

"This thing is really good."

"If we encounter prey with this, it's much better than a bow and arrow."

At dinner, two plates of meat were placed in front of Xiao Niannian.

"Save the rest of the mutton for later. This is roasted mutton and stir-fried mutton. We'll stew mutton tonight."

Lu Jing said to Niannian with a smile.

"Okay."

Tasting the dishes Lu Jing made, Xiao Niannian felt the taste was better than usual.

Xiao Niannian ate a large bowl of rice.

Seeing Lu Jing still serving her food, she waved her hand.

"I'm full."

Only then did Lu Jing continue to eat.

After eating, they continued into the mountains.

They had a drawn map in their hands. Lu Jing, Military Doctor Shen, Squad Leader He, and a few others discussed for a while, then continued forward.

After walking for more than two hours, when they reached a small river, the river water was very clear, and they could see many fish swimming around.

"Let's catch some fish. These fish look delicious."

Food was scarce in these snow mountains. Although they brought a lot of provisions, every bit saved was a bit gained.

"Okay."

Hearing Lu Jing agree, the Soldiers immediately took their wooden sticks and entered the water.

The wooden sticks Xiao Niannian had sharpened earlier were very pointed. Now she sharpened a few other wooden sticks, making them into a fork.

"I'll do it. You just had your period, don't catch a cold."

Hearing Lu Jing's words, Xiao Niannian's face turned red.

She didn't expect him to remember even that.

"Here's your water bottle, it has brown sugar in it."

Lu Jing handed his water bottle to Xiao Niannian and took her water bottle from her.

Xiao Niannian took the water bottle and watched him walk towards the river with the fork.

Many Soldiers entered the water; the water temperature was a bit cold now.

Lu Jing stood on the bank, striking quickly when he saw fish passing by.

Not far away, Military Doctor Shen didn't want to get his shoes wet. He picked up a stone from the bank and threw it hard into the water.

"Hit it!"

For a moment, there were cheers from the Soldiers.

After more than twenty minutes, Lu Jing told everyone to come up.

"Reporting, Captain Lu, we caught over twenty fish. We'll have an extra dish for the next few days."

The large fish weighed two to three catties, and the small ones were about half a catty.

"Process them, save a few for dinner tonight, and salt the rest."

This time entering the mountain, Lu Jing brought a lot of salt, not only the amount they were supplied but also a few extra packs.

"Yes."

In the evening, they found a cave. Thirty-odd people squeezed inside, and there was still plenty of space.

Xiao Niannian sat by the campfire, watching Lu Jing and the others roast fish over the fire. Smelling the aroma, Xiao Niannian took out a large bag of pre-mixed seasoning from her bag.

"This is a brush. Brush it with this seasoning packet, and it will taste great."

"These are green onions from the Cooking Squad; they gave me some."

Seeing the items in Xiao Niannian's hand, another Team Member responsible for grilling laughed.

"Instructor Xiao, training with you is truly a blessing."

"This roasted mutton is so fragrant. After being brushed with oil, it tastes truly wonderful."

After dinner, Xiao Niannian walked out of the cave and looked around.

Tonight's moonlight was good. Although there was still some wind in the mountains and some snow on the ground, the temperature was several degrees higher than before.

"After this wilderness survival training, are we returning to Yangcheng?"

Hearing Niannian's words, Lu Jing did not answer directly.

"Listen to the instructions from above."

Hearing this, Xiao Niannian guessed that something must have gone wrong again.

She thought that this place was close to Asan—oh, no, it was the White Elephant country.

She had read history, and from then until the year of her original world, White Elephant had always been restless, constantly stirring up trouble.

If they really had to go to places like Zayu, then so be it.

Not an inch of the motherland's mountains and rivers can be lost!

Xiao Niannian's eyes flashed with determination, and her gaze became sharp.

"Okay."

At night, Xiao Niannian fell asleep covered by a military overcoat.

When she woke up, it was already past six in the morning.

Lu Jing and the others were cooking breakfast. Seeing someone steaming buns, her mouth twitched.

"Yesterday's mutton also makes good buns."

Military Doctor Shen saw Xiao Niannian and said with a smile.

"I specially made a seasoning. Niannian, you can try it later."

"Okay."

When she ate the mutton buns, Xiao Niannian felt that they indeed tasted good.

She ate two buns and drank a cup of buttered tea.

The Team Members really brought everything.

After eating and drinking their fill, they continued walking into the mountains.

Over the next two days, besides picking some wild vegetables, they also caught some game.

"Comrade Xiao, there's a hole here with lots of pine nuts inside."

Xiao Niannian heard the shout and walked over.

She was a little surprised when she saw the pine nuts in the hole.

The tree hollow was very well dug, and it was even lined with grass. The pine nuts the Team Members were digging out were still dry.

"Comrade Xiao, have a taste."

A Team Member grabbed a handful of pine nuts for her.

"Thank you."

Xiao Niannian peeled one. It tasted good and was very fragrant.

"Here, Comrade Xiao, have some more."

"It's spring now, so the squirrels should have left here."

"Let's not take them all. We'll leave a large portion for the squirrels."

The Team Members said with smiles, and some even put in the flatbreads and candies they brought.

"We raided the squirrels' nest, so we should return the favor."

Everyone chatted and laughed, and Xiao Niannian also put some easy-to-store food inside.

Lu Jing took a handful from her pocket and put it into his own.

Seeing Lu Jing peel them by hand, Xiao Niannian smiled.

After a while, Lu Jing put all the peeled pine nuts into Xiao Niannian's hand.

"Eat."

"Okay."

Before, he would frown every time she said thank you. Now, Xiao Niannian no longer said thank you.

When she took them, she deliberately hooked his palm with her finger.

Lu Jing had a smile on his face.

These days, it was just training after training. Although they trained together, they rarely had time alone.

At most, after dinner, they would take a walk outside the camp.

Xiao Niannian ate slowly, continuing to walk forward.

Not long after they started walking, Military Doctor Shen heard a sound. He raised his hand, and the Team Members all quieted down.

"It's the sound of a wild boar."

Xiao Niannian and Lu Jing, walking at the very back, also heard the sound.

"Great! Let's catch this wild boar."
