Chapter 581

"Oh, okay, I'll change places then."

Instructor Jiang responded quickly and obediently moved to another place, but he didn't stay there for long before he came back and stared at Shen Ao from a distance of less than five meters.

Shen Ao: “…” I’m convinced.

Shen Ao's brows furrowed in displeasure. His patience had completely run out. He was about to confront Instructor Jiang when an urgent cry suddenly came from not far away.

"Captain Shen, something's happened! Doctor Bai and the others fell into the river!"

The soldier who was responsible for reporting the news had been running all the way here and was already out of breath, which showed that the situation was very urgent.

"what?!"

Upon hearing the news, Shen Ao no longer cared about following the soldiers in the kitchen to set up the stove. He quickly stood up and said, "Where is it? Take me there!"

half an hour ago.

Bai Ying and He Shiwen finally managed to treat all the injured soldiers. Because several soldiers had external injuries, both of them had blood on their hands.

They both like to be clean and can't stand stains on their hands, especially when they have to eat soon!

Considering that the boiled water in the kettle was limited and could not be wasted, the two of them agreed to go to the river below the hillside to wash their hands.

Seeing Bai Ying and He Shiwen wash their hands, take off their shoes, and wash the mud off their feet, the young soldier who followed them to protect them felt embarrassed to follow them and stood on the hillside at a distance.

It is summer and there is plenty of rain. It rained a few days ago, and the river is quite turbulent. The water is rolling up waves and converging downstream.

However, the river water was still clear, and many fish from upstream swam here along the current. Bai Ying and He Shiwen saw several of them while they were washing their hands and feet.

He Shiwen finished washing first. She stared at a cluster of water plants close to the shore. The water surface was slightly rippling, and small bubbles were rising from the bottom. There seemed to be something inside...

"Hey, Baiying! There must be a big fish in there!"

He Shiwen's low voice was filled with excitement.

She had lived a well-behaved life since she was a child and had never played in the fields. Now, surrounded by this vibrant world, she was like a bird out of a cage, and all she wanted was to play freely.

I want to try everything I haven't tried before.

Bai Ying glanced at the place where He Shiwen pointed. She was much calmer. She shook the water off her feet and put on her shoes. "Okay, let's go now that we're done washing. I guess dinner will be served soon."

"We didn't bring anything good to eat when we left. All we'll have is porridge and sweet potatoes when we go back," He Shiwen said, curling her lips. Her gaze remained fixed on the still-rippled water. "It would be great if we could catch some fish and take them back! Eating some meat would give us strength to continue on our journey!"

Bai Ying glanced at the rushing water and frowned slightly, "Forget it. The current is too fast. If I fall into the water and get washed away, it will be more trouble than it's worth."

"It's okay. Look, the fish is right next to the river. We don't have to go down there. We can just catch it! Okay, stop talking nonsense. If you don't dare, I'll do it!"

He Shiwen couldn't wait any longer. She tiptoed to the shore, bent down, slowly stretched her hands towards the water, held her breath, and was ready to attack at any time.

"Be careful, don't fall."

Seeing that He Shiwen was determined, Bai Ying knew that it was useless to persuade her anymore, so she simply went up and put her arm around He Shiwen's waist to prevent her from falling into the water again in excitement.

"Got it! Look at me—I caught it! Ahahahaha..."

He Shiwen suddenly pushed down, plunged her hands into the water, and successfully caught the big fish lurking at the bottom of the river. The fish was struggling desperately at the bottom of the river, stirring up mud and sand, making the water surface turbid and unable to see the situation underwater clearly.

A slippery feeling arises spontaneously.

Although the feeling was a bit disgusting, the intense joy of catching the fish made He Shiwen so excited that she suppressed the discomfort.
