Shen Fei immediately understood Chen Fei's predicament but still couldn't help but cover her mouth and giggle from time to time.
"..." Chen Fei, fed up, shouted, "Young lady, that's enough!"
Noticing Chen Fei's increasingly darkening face, Teacher Shen put on a serious expression and sternly said, "Mm-hm, the evil capitalist, may you not die a good death!"
The capitalist: "Eat your own rice then!"
"The fish is ready!"
A few fifth-grade students, who had been roasting by the fire, excitedly shouted.
Besides clothes, they had also found a chance to roast fish by the fire.
Fearless as a newborn calf, the students had picked up fish from the shore and boldly encouraged the female gold dragon Yiran to catch more from the stream. Every time she threw a fish up, they would applaud and cheer enthusiastically.
Dashing upstream or downstream for several miles, water droplets flying everywhere, Yiran soon returned with a large number of fish, naturally earning prolonged applause and cheers, which made her even more energetic.
The students naturally claimed these spoils, busily gutting and scaling the fish.
Stuffed with ginger slices and freshly picked wild scallions, the fish were scored, coated with oil, and roasted by the fire until the outside was crispy and the inside tender. A sprinkle of pepper and cumin powder, and it was simply delicious!
"Delicious!"
"Really fragrant! So tender!"
"Too good!"
The number of fish Yiran brought back was sufficient, and each student got one, enjoying their meal thoroughly.
The two guard dogs, who usually wagged their tails and begged for food at mealtime, now hid in the grass with their tails between their legs, unwilling to come out.
If not for their owners and the group of little masters, they would have been scared away by the massive creature long ago.
Even the outwardly strong but inwardly timid "Ahu" managed to hold on.
Chen Fei, who had been juggling the hot fish, finally cooled it down, took a small bite, spat out a few fine bones, and, seeing Yiran still wreaking havoc in the stream, worriedly said, "Won't all the fish in this stream be caught?"
The natural conditions in the Hindukush Mountains were not very good. The more desolate the place, the weaker the ecological balance. This stream, a rare gem, was not deep, and clear water often meant no fish, even if it was flowing water, it probably couldn't support many fish.
"No problem, it's not breeding season yet, and there are plenty of fish upstream and downstream."
Teacher Shen Fei, enjoying her meal, tore off a small piece of fish belly without bones to tempt Chen Fei's little bird.
The little glutton probably guessed the relationship between Teacher Shen and his father, and without any hesitation, flew over, pecked, and swallowed it.
The Cleanlight Sparrow, an omnivorous magical beast, ate both meat and vegetables. In no time, it had a full belly, and all the fish belly from Teacher Shen's hand ended up in its crop.
"The environment here is really nice."
Chen Fei nodded.
The scenery in the mountainous area was mostly monotonous, with occasional greenery. Most of it was moss and lichen, and a few plants that could withstand drought, cold, and poor soil. Only near water sources did the vegetation become lush.
Teacher Shen Fei's choice of this stream for the students' camping day was entirely reasonable.
"Do you still have to take care of it for another day?"
Shen Fei looked at the seemingly inexhaustible energy of the gold dragon. A section of the stream had already been dug into a large pit, gradually turning into a pond.
The destructive power of a dragon, even when just playing, was still quite terrifying.
"Indeed, it's not easy to earn money!"
Chen Fei rubbed his forehead, feeling a headache, and even the roasted fish in his hand lost its appeal.
"I'll help you think of a way!"
Teacher Shen looked at the female gold dragon and smiled.
A thirty-year-old dragon, even a gold dragon with a cruel nature, was still a child!
In the afternoon.
"The Evil Dragon Catching Students Game, now begins!"
A group of students hid behind Yiran, nervously watching the menacing Chen Fei on the other side.
Who was the "evil dragon"?
Of course, it was Chen Fei!
The female gold dragon retracted all her blades, activated her innate ability "Void Magnetic Field" to reduce her weight to that of a child, and took on the role of a "mother hen," protecting the students behind her from the "evil dragon" Chen Fei.
The clever Teacher Shen Fei cheered and waved a flag, acting as the referee.
"The evil dragon is coming!"
Chen Fei lunged forward with a strange cry, scaring the students into shouting.
Children's happiness is often so simple; they don't care about what kind of dragon it is, as long as they can play together, they are friends.
Two fourth-generation "Sky Hawks" hovered at a height of one thousand meters.
Knight Tali looked down at the ground, incredulously saying, "What are they doing?"
This "they" probably included the dragon.
No one could imagine a gold dragon playing with a group of human children. Such a scene was so out of place that it defied everyone's common sense.
Tali even wondered if she was seeing an illusion.
The captain of the Shadow Fox Squad, Molan, of the First Squadron of the Northern First District Air Cavalry of the Sylan Empire, said uncertainly, "Playing, playing a game!"
With a slight mental effort, he took out a camera from his storage device, switched to a 30x zoom lens, and started recording a video.
If they hadn't been secretly guarding the female gold dragon Yiran, they probably wouldn't have seen such a scene and wouldn't have found it so unbelievable. When did gold dragons become so harmless?
"Is this still a killing dragon?"
Knight Tali shook her head in amazement.
Her superior, Captain Molan, said with certainty, "This is the Empress's achievement!"
The Empress spent thirty years carefully cultivating and educating these gold dragon hatchlings under the care of the Sylan Royal Family. They were indeed different from their cruel and difficult-to-approach kin.
If this could continue, a thousand years later, the gold dragon clan would completely change their terrible image in the minds of all intelligent races.
...
Nearly half of the employees gathered at the 911 Air Base had already dispersed.
Compared to the hypnotic techniques of the psychologist Li Bai, the memory search efficiency of the mental dragon Claudia was much higher. It only took five minutes to search through a month's worth of memories.
"That's it for today!"
The dragon raised her head and looked at the sun, which was about to touch the horizon.
The sky was filled with colorful clouds, painting the last rays of the setting sun.
"Yiran hasn't returned yet."
The 911 Air Base executive manager, Hana Gager, who had not left, kept looking towards the gate.
Not only the female gold dragon but also the two knights had not returned. No one knew where they had gone, and they hadn't been seen all day.
Speak of the devil, and he shall appear.
A buzzing sound came from the sky, and two fourth-generation "Sky Hawks" descended.
"Back?"
The captain of the First Squadron of the Northern First District Air Cavalry of the Sylan Empire, the leader of the Sky Dragon City escort team, Mikro, looked at the returning knights with a questioning gaze.
"Back!"
Captain Molan of the Shadow Fox Squad nodded calmly.
The same question and the same answer meant that nothing had gone wrong, and it was another peaceful day.
Mikro raised an eyebrow. They had gone out with such a big fuss, and nothing had happened. He had expected some commotion but found nothing.
This was indeed good news.
Chen Fei and the female gold dragon appeared at the gate.
The rope was still intact around the dragon's neck, with one end held by Chen Fei. The little bird, full and tired from playing, perched on his shoulder, head tucked in, eyes half-closed, occasionally chirping, and dozing off.
The production team's donkey, no, dragon, had been brought back.
This scene shattered many glasses.
