Chapter 1030: Why Didn’t You Accept the Captain’s Offer?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Ate it raw?

This thing?

Ye Yuwei looked down at the bloody snake kebab and shuddered.

Gu Juexi was indifferent though. In order to survive and to avoid other squads discovering their location, they had to eat without a campfire and the only way to do that was by eating the food raw.

Gu Juexi fanned the fire. He tried to swing his right hand and realized he could move the hand slightly now.

Gu Juexi stacked some branches to hold the snake over the fire and smoked it for a while. The snake head that he had chopped off earlier was set aside. He shaved one end of the tree branches into a sharp tip and dipped it in the snake venom, producing a dozen tiny poisoned arrows.

Ye Yuwei was mesmerized as she watched him. He had left the army for about sixteen years now, but his skills were as proficient as ever. He might have forgotten how many contracts he signed, but his survival skills had never left him.

“Why didn’t you accept the captain’s offer?” Ye Yuwei cupped her chin and asked as she watched Gu Juexi making a small slingshot.

Gu Juexi paused midway, army knife in hand. Eventually, he continued shaving the branches. “Give me your hairband.”

Ye Yuwei reached back and pulled the hairband off her ponytail, then passed it to Gu Juexi.

Gu Juexi tested the elastic strength of the band before putting it aside and continued shaving the stick. “It all turned out well. The future is reserved for the youngsters. Now, my priority has shifted. Besides the country, I have a very important person to protect.”

Ye Yuwei chuckled gleefully as she heard his statement.

“What’s so funny? I mean my little princess, why are you laughing?” Gu Juexi interrupted.

A dark cloud instantly spread over Ye Yuwei’s face. This man was such a jerk.

Gu Juexi finished his slingshot. Although he was not entirely satisfied with the result, as long as it could function decently, it was fine.

Gu Juexi tested the snake to make sure it was cooked thoroughly then passed it to Ye Yuwei. “Hurry up and eat. This fellow nearly attacked you this morning, in a real survival game. Truth be told, it has died.”

Ye Yuwei broke out in a cold sweat at his statement, despite how monotonous his tone was. She felt that she had passed through Hell’s gate before even realizing it.

Frightfully, Ye Yuwei sat closer to Gu Juexi which made him laugh. “Let’s eat, we have to hit the road soon. I saw some fruits over there, we’ll pick some on our way.”

They didn’t carry any water as they didn’t have bottles, obviously. They could only rely on wild fruits to replenish themselves.

Ye Yuwei took the snake from Gu Juexi. She felt disgusted and squeamish but she had to eat it. “Did you guys really eat everything raw?”

“Yes. Snakes, mice, we ate everything we hunted. Have you ever drank blood?” Gu Juexi said with a smile as he looked at Ye Yuwei who was becoming increasingly pale. “Let’s see if I can hunt something big, I’ll let you taste some.”

“What?!” Ye Yuwei shrieked in horror.

Gu Juexi laughed delightfully at her reaction. He strapped the makeshift weapons to his waist, got up and scanned the area, then looked at the direction of the sun to decide which way they should go.

Frankly, the pheasant was tastier than the snake, but beggars couldn’t be choosers.

However, sharing this kind of bizarre experience with Gu Juexi wasn’t so bad after all.

At the very least, she felt like she was one step closer to him.

Enduring the horrid taste, Ye Yuwei finished the roasted snake and grimaced. Gu Juexi buried the fire pit again, along with the snakeskin and innards.

“Why do you bury them?” Ye Yuwei asked curiously. He had done the same thing by the beach yesterday.
