As Fu Xuechen expected, there were indeed many mushrooms growing in the shady clearing of some tree trunks in the forest, and several could be picked casually.

There are only one or two kinds of wild mushrooms that can be eaten, Fu Xuechen can recognize them, even if a few other girls admit that they have picked poisonous mushrooms by mistake, they can also go back to the camp to find the imperial doctor and pharmacist to help identify them, and after cooking them, they can also take small animals to try them, and they are safe and secure.

In addition, purslane and toon buds were also found, both of which are quite common, and the five girls picked a lot along the way.

Picking is also a fun experience, before you know it, the five girls forget to hunt, the point is that they all like to discuss and argue, often before the people arrive, the animals are scared away by them, resulting in nothing encountered.

"It can't go on like this!" Suddenly finding that it was close to noon, Cui Xiaoyue stomped her feet anxiously: "Your Royal Highness Princess!" And the two sisters of the Fu family, let's stop talking! Silence, dismount and hunt! ”

Tethered their horses to a grassy glade, the five girls set out in search of prey.

With the bow and arrow in their hands, the five of them quietly walked into the forest with a light foot, and walked for a short distance, and sure enough, there was movement, and the bushes in front of them shook slightly.

Fu Xuechen just wanted to pull the bowstring, when he saw a sharp light flash in the corner of his eye, and the sound of the bowstring collapsing came, and a brocade pheasant with colorful feathers was poked out of the edge of the bush in front of the left.

"Shot, shot!" Princess Zhiling screamed happily.

"Ahh I'm half a step slower! Cui Xiaoyue put down the bowstring that had just been half-pulled in annoyance.

Fu Rushuang stepped forward and picked up the brocade pheasant that was still struggling on the ground, and she was the first to strike, an arrow pierced the heart, accurate and deadly and as fast as lightning, her archery skills made Fu Xuechen almost drop his jaw.

Xia Qinglian exclaimed: "The big sister of the Fu family is so sharp in archery!" ”

Fu Rushuang smiled gently: "I'm just a few years older, I've just practiced for a few more years, and when you grow to fifteen years old, you will definitely be better than me." ”

Cui Xiaoyue smiled with a very useful "hehe", while Xia Qinglian shook her head, not thinking that she could do it.

"Big sister of the Fu family, you can take it first!" Princess Zhiling waved her hand and refused to accept the brocade pheasant handed to her by Fu Rushuang: "Whoever catches the prey will take it first, and wait until the forest returns to the camp." ”

Everyone agreed, and Cui Xiaoyue urged again and again: "Keep going!" ”

The five of them searched the surroundings again.

In this open woodland, there are indeed many small animals, so many of them, giving people a feeling of straying into a wild farm, but in fact, the wetland of Nanhaizi is really a royal property, there are soldiers here all year round to practice, by the way, regularly remove harmful and deadly creatures such as poisonous snakes and beasts.

Small animals such as hares, which live in it, tend to breed in large numbers without the threat of many natural predators, and in order to prevent the proliferation of such fast-reproducing animals, soldiers will occasionally hunt them.

Because there were enough of them, the five girls lightened their movements, their voices were retracted, and no matter how shallow they were, they encountered several prey in a row.

Among them, there were two brocade pheasants, three rabbits, and a roe deer, but the roe deer was a little pot-bellied and seemed to be pregnant, and the five had to regret letting it go.

Of the newly acquired prey, only one fat rabbit was taken down by Cui Xiaoyue because of its slightly sluggish movements, and the rest of the prey almost relied on Fu Rushuang's precise and sharp archery skills. Fu Xuechen was very ashamed, she also reacted in time to shoot two arrows, but both arrows were slower Fu Rushuang didn't say a single step, and they both missed! Nothing.

With the center of the circle where the horses were, the five of them came back in a circle, and Cui Xiaoyue quit: "No!" Your Highness Princess, I don't think the five of us can get together anymore! Score into two teams. ”

Princess Zhiling was puzzled: "Why?" ”

Cui Xiaoyue's cheeks bulged, looking puffed out, and she said unconvinced: "The eldest sister of the Fu family is too powerful!" With her, she is basically taking us, and I don't feel like we have a chance to make a move! ”

Fu Rushuang blinked when she heard this, and said funny: "Then I won't make a move?" ”

"That's not fair to you!" Cui Xiaoyue disagreed: "And there are so many of us, if we don't hit enough prey, shouldn't we make others laugh?" So we split up and go our way, so my sister can hunt to her heart's content! In the final analysis, she was actually a little afraid that she would not be able to take the harvest she could hunt if she left Fu Rushuang.

"How do you want us to split up?" Xia Qinglian asked.

"Where will I go, Your Highness, the eldest sister of the Fu family is on the other team!" Cui Xiaoyue grabbed Princess Zhiling first.

Fu Xuechen was not interested in competing, he just wanted to hit as many prey as possible, so he naturally had to follow the master closely, and immediately stood beside Fu Rushuang: "Me and my sister." ”

Xia Qinglian looked left and right, and finally became more familiar with Cui Xiaoyue and the princess, so he moved behind the princess.

Princess Zhiling wanted to get close to Fu Xuechen in her heart, but Cui Xiaoyue had already said that she didn't want to be with Fu Rushuang, so if Princess Zhiling chose to follow the Fu sisters, it would inevitably seem to abandon her two companions, and after hesitating for a moment, she had to apologize to the Fu sisters: "Then I will follow Xiaoyue for the time being." ”

Fu Xuechen waved his hand at her with a smile that didn't care: "It's almost noon, no matter what the harvest is, it will be over in half an hour, right?" It was almost time to go back to camp to get food. ”

"Hmm!" Princess Zhiling nodded in agreement, led her two little companions to read, and left in another direction.

There were only two sisters left, and Fu Rushuang looked at Fu Xuechen helplessly: "Sister, shouldn't you usually practice riding and archery?" Your archery has regressed a lot. ”

Fu Xuechen smiled dryly, she also has practice! But the time she crossed over was shorter, and it was not easy to restore the level of the original owner, and now she can have the eight-point ability of the original owner, which is already the result of having Yu Zuo to help correct the action.

"Sister! I want to eat venison, why don't we go to the wilderness instead?" Fu Xuechen changed the topic, speaking of which, she had never tasted venison in her two lives, and she was quite curious.

"Good!" Fu Rushuang agreed, took her with her, returned to the place where the horses were, and rode their horses to find the direction they came, returned to the edge of the forest, and headed towards the field on the right side of the forest.

Before they had gone far into the wilderness, they saw a herd of beasts galloping in front of them, and the flocks of sheep and deer were driven to run desperately, but wherever they ran, there were people riding horses chasing and hunting them at the edge of the herd.

"It's so hilarious!" Fu Xuechen took out his pair of binoculars from the bag hanging from the horse's neck, and narrowed his gaze to take a look, good guy! The four princes who participated in the competition and their companions were basically all here.
