This sudden conversation immediately attracted the attention of others.
"Lao Liu, what did you say? The one with black hair?"
"Yeah, what are you talking about? Why can't I understand?"
"I heard a little bit. It seemed that Lao Liu asked Xiao Fan if he had a favorite woman. Xiao Fan didn't understand. Then Lao Liu said, I know everything. It's the one with black hair."
"What? Is this true?"
At this moment, even Chen Guodong, who was walking in front, looked over.
"Uncle Liu, what are you talking about?"
Chen Fan was both amused and confused.
"You are still pretending here. I see it all."
The bald man said proudly: "I noticed it yesterday. You were staring at her. Just now when we set out, you looked at her again. You made her feel embarrassed."
"!"
Everyone was shocked, their eyes fell on Chen Fan, and their smiles became ambiguous.
"It's not what you think."
Chen Fan shrugged his shoulders, feeling a little helpless.
To explain would be to cover up, and he was afraid that it would only make things worse.
"Yes, yes, it's definitely not what we thought."
"Is that what we thought?"
"That's right, Xiaofan, we didn't say anything."
"Don't worry, we will keep it a secret for you."
A few people looked like they understood, and some even bumped the bald man with their shoulders and asked in a low voice, "What does that girl look like? Is she pretty?"
Chen Fan shook his head helplessly.
Eating melons is a common human nature. Let them do as they please. After all, there are not many entertainment activities in daily life.
The noise was soon replaced by boredom, and in order to save energy, the group marched silently through the wilderness.
One hour, two hours, with the sun above his head, Chen Fan's brows slowly wrinkled. No way? Today's luck won't be the same as yesterday's, right
After walking for so long, I didn't encounter any decent prey.
At this moment, a dark shadow appeared three or four hundred meters away.
"There's prey!"
The others also noticed this, and they couldn't help but feel refreshed, as if a long drought had finally brought a downpour.
"It seems to be an armored rhinoceros."
Chen Fan's voice sounded, with a bitter smile on his face.
"What? Armored Rhino?"
"Ironclad Rhino?"
Upon hearing this, several people were like deflated balloons. Having said that, they still moved forward and confirmed that it was indeed an armored rhinoceros.
"As expected of an archer, Xiaofan, you can see really far." The bald man gave a thumbs up.
Chen Fan smiled. After all, he was at the third level of body tempering. With improved physical fitness, he could naturally see farther and hear more clearly.
"Let's take a detour."
Chen Guodong said angrily.
It’s better not to provoke this big guy if you can.
Chen Fan's hand was tightly holding the longbow, and he felt an urge to shoot it with an arrow. With his current strength, it should not be a problem to shoot and kill such a huge monster. Not only would he gain a lot of experience points, but such a huge prey could also provide food for the village for many days.
The only worry is that the opponent is too big, like a heavy truck. Even if it is shot, it will be difficult to kill it immediately. If it goes crazy and chases other people, the consequences will be unimaginable.
"Forget it, let's look for other prey."
Chen Fan clenched his hands, then loosened them again.
At least wait until you reach the Flesh Refining Stage, and then you can be sure of killing with one arrow.
"By the way, is that armored rhinoceros the same one we encountered last time?"
Someone muttered, "Why do I feel like I look like that guy?"
“Who knows?”
Gao Yang swallowed a mouthful of water and cursed: "These beasts all look the same, who can tell them apart?"
"Yes, fortunately this time we discovered it in advance, so we escaped with no danger."
"If we still don't find any prey after walking for another hour or so, let's sit down and have a meal and take a rest," said Chen Guodong.
"Um."
Everyone nodded.
"Xiao Fan, how do you feel? If you are tired, take a rest first?" The bald man smiled at Chen Fan.
"It's okay, Uncle Liu, keep going."
Chen Fan smiled.
A physical fitness of 46 points is no joke. At least the two-hour long journey had little impact on him.
After walking for another hour or so, this time we caught some prey, two prairie rabbits.
Chen Fan felt helpless.
This is just a small amount of prey. It would be far from enough to exchange it.
"Two wild rabbits, that's good enough. At least the people in the village can eat them for a day or two." Chen Guodong seemed to see what Chen Fan was thinking. He comforted him and then looked at everyone and said, "Let's have lunch here and get enough rest. Maybe we'll get some prey in the afternoon."
Several people sat down cross-legged, took out dried meat from the bags they carried with them, and ate it slowly with water.
Since they had nothing to do, everyone started talking about gossip again.
"Old Liu, I remember now. The girl with a melon-shaped face and long hair you mentioned seemed to have the surname Meng, Meng Yu." Gao Yang nodded.
"Xiao Meng?"
A middle-aged man with a high nose bridge next to him blurted out: "I know her. Why didn't you tell me earlier? This girl is really pretty. Xiaofan has good taste!"
Chen Fan rolled his eyes.
"You know Lao Qin? That's great. Bring Xiaofan there someday and tell them that our Xiaofan is also a handsome man, talented in both literature and martial arts."
"That's right."
The bald man looked like he was enjoying the fun.
"I remember that the girl came here alone at first." Qin Ming recalled.
"Alone?"
"Her parents, then?"
"Um."
Qin Ming sighed, "She must have had an accident on the way, leaving her alone. It's not easy for this girl."
"Yeah, Xiaofan, why are you still standing there? Why don't you seize the opportunity? You're a grown man, what is there to be shy about?"
"That's right, only when you take the initiative can you tell a story."
"Not only that, but we can also have children."
“…”
Chen Fan was speechless.
Suddenly, he noticed something and turned to look southeast, only to see a group of people walking towards him.
"Someone is coming."
As soon as he finished speaking, the bald men who were smiling playfully just now turned serious, picked up the weapons on the ground, and looked in the direction.
But after seeing it clearly, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"They are from Gujiazhai."
Chen Guodong looked at them and explained, "It's a small village with only 30 or 40 people. The leader is called Gu Jianghai, and he's a nice guy."
At this moment, several people on the opposite side also noticed the people sitting here to rest. Both sides waved their hands as a greeting, and then the people from Gujiazhai changed direction and moved forward.
Obviously, everyone was just nodding acquaintances, and they were still quite wary in the wilderness.
"Huh?"
At this moment, Chen Fan noticed one of the people holding a bow and arrow, and a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.
Because he was also a young man, and looked about the same age as me.
The young man seemed to sense something. He looked at Chen Fan from a distance, then turned his head and walked forward.
"It's a bit complicated, isn't it? This guy."
Chen Fan thought secretly.
