Chapter 148 Prepared, Spicy Fish Pot

"It should be a maze set up by that expert. Although the vegetation on the mountain is lush, it is far from being lost." Zou Hang said, squatting on the ground to carefully look around them.

Du Chengjing also began to focus on their current location, checking the surrounding trees for any abnormalities.

Su Bai calmly took out a pot and a kettle from the storage ring, casually piled up the nearby stones, picked up dry firewood, and put the pot on the stove made of stones.

"Princess, what are you going to do?" Zou Hang was stunned. Isn't the most urgent task is to break the maze and go up the mountain early?
Without raising his head, Su Bai continued to take out things from the storage ring, including oil, green onions, peppers, and even a kitchen knife.

After taking out all the things, she held a kitchen knife and looked at the two men staring at her with a smile, "Are you hungry? After walking for so long, it's time to eat something."

"I'm not hungry yet, Zou Hang and I split up and went to both sides to have a look, you." Before Du Chengjing finished speaking, Su Bai handed him the kitchen knife.

Du Chengjing subconsciously held the kitchen knife and fell into doubt.

"You, go to a river, catch a fish for me, and bring it back after you've dealt with it." Su Bai announced the task without any explanation.

Du Chengjing looked at her, then at the kitchen knife in his hand, but didn't know what to say.

"Hurry up, I have everything ready, only one fresh fish is missing." Su Bai gently pushed him.

Zou Hang watched Du Chengjing leaving with a kitchen knife expressionless, and the surprise in his heart couldn't be expressed in words.

Even Mr. Du has stood on the side of the princess, it seems that he doesn't want to break the maze, let's talk about it after dinner with the princess.

"Princess, is there a river near here?" When Zou Hang knelt down to help Su Bai look at the firewood, he suddenly felt something was wrong.

If there is a river, wouldn't they get out of the maze by following the river?

Su Bai glanced at him, she knew what Zou Hang was thinking, if it was really that simple, wouldn't Mu Nanyan and Liang Qing, two people with the aura of the protagonist, not know?
"Yes." Su Bai only said one word.

She couldn't explain to Zou Hang that she couldn't follow the river out of the maze.

Zou Hang stuffed the firewood into the stove, "My lord, I'm going to visit Mr. Du, and I'll be right back."

Su Bai let him go, practicing true knowledge.

Before Zou Hang reached the river, he met Du Chengjing who came back with fish.

"Young Master Du, we can leave here along the river. Although there is a maze, the river will not be changed." Zou Hang hurriedly persuaded Du Chengjing.

Eating is secondary, they need to get out of here quickly.

Du Chengjing shook the fish in his hand, "I've already seen it, I can't go out, let's go back to eat first."

After finishing speaking, Du Chengjing passed Zou Hang and walked towards Su Bai.

Zou Hang stood there stupidly, and then gave up after a while, turning around and following Du Chengjing.

When he returned to the original place, Su Bai had already started cooking, sautéed the peppers and shallots in the oil, and poured in water after the spicy aroma dissipated.

While waiting for the water to boil, Su Bai took out four bowls from the storage ring.

"Four?" Du Chengjing looked at the four bowls, and looked at Su Bai in puzzlement. Before Su Bai could speak, he suddenly understood, and a smile appeared on his lips.

No wonder Su Bai suddenly wanted to cook, everything was in her plan.

"You two just wait by the side, and leave the rest to me." Su Bai saw that he had already understood, and the water happened to be boiling, so she waved her hand and began to concentrate on cooking.

She originally thought about making snails like Mu Nanyan, but after much deliberation, she gave up and planned to make spicy fish pot.

It was summer when Mu Nanyan arrived at Kunyu Mountain, and now it was about to enter winter. Although he wanted to use fragrance to attract that person, he had to make something that fit the season.

Since the spicy fish pot can attract that person, it can also keep the three of them warm.

After the fish was put into the pot, the rich aroma gradually dissipated, and even Zou Hang and Du Chengjing, who were not hungry, began to salivate.

When the fish was cooked, Su Bai asked Zou Hang to take out the hard dry food they usually ate, put two chopsticks flat on the pot, and let the boiling steam heat the dry food.

"Princess, it's already afternoon, should we eat early and continue to find a way to leave?" Zou Hang looked at the sky and couldn't sit still.

Su Bai estimated the time and nodded, "It's time to eat."

Hearing this, Du Chengjing got up, took down the dry food first, and filled four bowls.

"Why is this bowl filled too?" Zou Hang looked at the extra bowl.

Su Bai and Du Chengjing looked at each other, "It's for those who are destined."

As soon as she finished speaking, a bell suddenly sounded from the upper left of them. The three looked up and saw a man in a gray robe.

"Who are you? Are you picnicking on the mountain?" the middle-aged man asked.

Su Bai said frankly, "We went up the mountain to learn from our teachers, so we are hungry, so we can make something to eat."

The middle-aged man was not surprised by her answer. He walked up to them slowly and looked at the boiling pot. "It looks delicious. Can I ask for a bowl?"

"Are you coming from the mountain?" Su Bai ignored his question and asked.

The middle-aged man nodded.

Su Bai continued to ask, "Then do you know Xie Ange?"

Xie Ange was the person she was looking for on this trip, the number one swordsman of Yan Dynasty who lived in seclusion in Kunyu Mountain.

The original text did not explain Xie Ange's experience, and she did not know why Xie Ange wanted to live in seclusion.

The middle-aged man shook his head.

Su Bai looked regretful, "Then I can't give you the fish, we are trapped here, and we are pointing at this pot of fish to attract people who can solve the maze."

She glanced at the man quietly, wondering how he got from the mountain to this labyrinth?Lying is so perfunctory.

The middle-aged man seemed unwilling to give in, and lowered his head expressionlessly, but his eyes were clearly looking at the pot of fish.

"I know."

He finally obeyed the glutton in his stomach.

Su Bai picked up the fourth bowl with a smile, and shook it around in front of the man, "Then can you take us out of here and see Xie Ange?"

Once there is a first time, there will be a second time. The man agreed very simply this time, "Okay, I will take you up the mountain after eating."

Su Bai handed him the bowl contentedly, and the four of them squatted in front of the pot and ate it, all four of them were sweating because of the spicy food.

After eating enough, Su Bai simply cleaned up the pots and bowls, put them into the storage ring, and planned to wait until he was on the mountain before cleaning.

She had just finished packing when she looked up and found that the middle-aged man who was standing next to her had walked up to Du Chengjing at some point. Du Chengjing was still stretching his arms. It was obvious that the middle-aged man was planning to run away after eating.

Su Bai pursed his lips, eating her king's meal?
Seeing Du Chengjing's cold face, the middle-aged man began to explain, "Just let me go, I really don't know where Xie Ange is? I also stumbled in by mistake.

"Thank you senior, it's meaningless to lie."
