Chapter 1896: Chapter 629: 628: Breaking the Ice River and Catching Fish_1

Wang Meng glanced at Shitou running away and didn’t bother chasing him, tossing the wild chicken he caught into his backpack.

“Eating fish every day is getting boring.”

Feng Yi, who disliked the cold, was reluctant to go to the ice river and unconsciously rejected the idea.

“Little Medicine Fanatic likes fish.”

Wang Meng was too embarrassed to admit it was him, so he pushed Mo Canglan forward instead.

“Brother Lan went to town and is working at Relief Medical Hall; he won’t be back tonight.”

Feng Yi knew the truth and couldn’t be fooled.

“With eight people, one chicken won’t be enough.”

Lin Qingluo smiled warmly: “Feng Yi doesn’t like the cold, no need to go. Wang Meng and I will go.”

Feng Yi’s ears turned slightly red: “Let’s look around the mountain instead, maybe we’ll find a wild boar.”

Wang Meng grinned: “Wild boars aren’t that easy to find. Fishing is much more satisfying.”

“Where’s Yin’er?”

Feng Yi looked around for Little Kingfisher, hoping the Divine Beast baby would appear in time and save him from embarrassment.

Lin Qingluo teased with a smile: “Yin’er loves to play and isn’t close by.”

“Without Yin’er, fishing won’t be easy.”

Feng Yi wanted to give it one more try.

“Stop dawdling, go back by yourself.”

Wang Meng was impatient, handed him the backpack, and turned to run towards the ice river.

Lin Qingluo’s eyes squinted with a smile, and with a flash, he disappeared from the spot.

“Hey hey, wait for me!”

Feng Yi panicked, carried the backpack and chased after them.

Three swift figures raced through the snowy mountain forest towards the ice river.

**

Master and his two students waded through knee-deep snow, arriving at the center of the ice river.

Lin Qingluo used magic spells to chisel an ice hole the size of a water tank on the ice layer about a meter deep.

“Chirp chirp.”

Little Kingfisher arrived, circling above the ice hole, its crisp chirping echoing.

In an instant, fish crowded to the surface, flapping their tails and wriggling in the water.

“I’ll scoop the fish.”

Despite being wrapped in thick clothes, Feng Yi shivered in the bone-chilling wind. He eagerly moved to stay warm and prevent his limbs from freezing.

“Alright, you scoop, and I’ll catch.”

Wang Meng found it hilarious, propping his net open, ready to catch fish.

Feng Yi swiftly scooped and threw a big fish into the air.

Wang Meng reacted fast, catching it in his net.

The two Senior Brothers coordinated well, soon filling the net with seven or eight big fish.

Feng Yi scooped again, suddenly feeling a heaviness on his arm, almost losing grip of the net.

“Growl!”

A bear head emerged from the ice hole, snarling at the two Senior Brothers, baring its teeth and roaring angrily.

“Oh my god, a polar bear?”

Feng Yi, frightened, trembled and let go of the net, which fell into the water.

“Damn, how weird. Scooping for fish, and a blind bear comes out.”

Wang Meng was also dumbfounded, instinctively retreating two steps with his net.

“Growl!”

The polar bear struggled out of the ice hole, shaking off its wet fur, baring its teeth, and roaring angrily at the trio.

“Do you want to eat bear paws?”

Lin Qingluo teased with a smirk, his right hand flashing with cold light as a sharp sword appeared.

“Yes!”

The Senior Brothers responded in unison.

“Hurry up if you want them, let’s butcher the bear.”

Lin Qingluo smiled playfully, the sword emitting a cold glow as he pierced the polar bear.

“Growl!”

A sword pierced the polar bear’s throat, and before it could retaliate, it breathed its last.

“Yay! We get to eat bear paws.”

Feng Yi, unusually excited, showed a child’s innocence and jumped around the polar bear.

“I’ll skin the bear and make knee pads.”

Wang Meng couldn’t stop thinking about the thick fur: “Beidi’s winter is really damn cold.”
