As long as we can trap it, it would only take a few breaths for the two old ancestors to inflict serious damage on it.

“Fourth Uncle, Fourth Uncle, I have an idea that we can try,” Wang Licui spoke, full of quick thinking.

“?”

Wang Shouzhe looked at her strangely; she never seems to have this many ideas normally. Did she come today specifically to oppose him?

“Alright, share your idea.” Wang Shouzhe eventually decided to prioritize the bigger picture.

“Fourth Uncle, I can’t guarantee anything,” Wang Licui said, “But I was thinking, spirit beasts and all like tasty food. If we lure it to shore with delicious food, wouldn’t it have nowhere to run?”

Lure with food?

Wang Shouzhe felt somewhat doubtful. This girl wouldn’t assume that every creature in the world is irresistibly attracted by tasty food just because she herself likes to eat, would she?

“Fourth Uncle, that’s how Hua Hua started following me,” Wang Licui said earnestly, “It really loves my small dried fish.”

Wang Shouzhe hesitated slightly, he knew he was convinced, “Then let’s give it a try, after all, there is nothing to lose.”

He had to admit, Licui was always capable of doing some unexpected yet uncannily successful things.

“What do you mean there’s nothing to lose?” Wang Licui said indignantly, “I’m offering my dried fish, and I don’t have much left in stock.”

“Fine! Fourth Uncle will reimburse you,” Wang Shouzhe gritted his teeth, “If you really make a big contribution, I will treat you to a grand meal at the Hundred Taste Pavilion in Changning, and you can order whatever you want, no ceiling price.”

“Huh?”

Wang Licui’s eyes lit up, she felt her blood boiling, and her whole body was filled with fighting spirit. She hit her chest and said, “Fourth Uncle, leave it all to Licui. I’m an expert at dealing with small animals.”

After that, Wang Licui quickly got into the swing of things, and began instructing Wang Shouzhe and the two old ancestors.

“Fourth Uncle, the ambush spot is there at an isolated location, behind there’s a forest for hiding,” Wang Licui began to think rapidly, “Also, wasn’t it you who caught an Eastern Sea Spearflag fish last time? Have someone cut a piece of it. The turtle has a big appetite, so we’ll need at least thirty, no, fifty pounds.”

“Do you know the oven? If there isn’t one at your place, go and get it from my yard. I had several spare ones made by a blacksmith before.”

“First-class fruit charcoal, various seasonings.”

“You two old ancestors, you must keep a distance and concentrate.”

…

Her various arrangements and instructions were impressive indeed.

Even Wang Shouzhe was somewhat stunned. The energy the girl was showing just because there was food involved was truly terrifying.

Though the fifty pounds of spirit fish made him a little hesitant, he eventually agreed to it.

Afterward.

Everything was ready.

Wang Licui, along with Hua Hua and a regular boatman, began to drift on the lake. She and little tiger Hua Hua enjoyed various delicious foods cheerfully, especially the small dried fish. As they ate, some small dried fish would accidentally fall into the lake.

More than an hour later.

The boat gradually moved closer to the shore, and the dried fish kept “falling”.

“Hua Hua, Missy will roast fresh fish for you. This is sea fish, you’ve never eaten it before.” Wang Licui, holding Huahua, went ashore and began to grill fish.

She was skilled and meticulous in her movements. In no time, the savory smell of grilled fish wafted about.

Even Wang Shouzhe and the others who were hiding in the woods were attracted by the smell of grilled fish. But Wang Shouzhe still had some doubts. Could they really lure the turtle onto the shore with this method?

The sky gradually grew dark.

The charcoal fire in the grill grew more blinding.

“Hua Hua, this piece is mine, don’t snatch it!” Wang Licui and little tiger Huahua had already started to enjoy the delicious grilled spirit fish. It looked like they had completely forgotten about their plan.

As they each took turns eating with gusto.

In less than a quarter of an hour, one third of the fifty pounds of Eastern Sea Spearflag spirit fish meat Wang Shouzhe had brought, was eaten by the girl and the tiger!

What’s more, they showed no sign of stopping, eating more joyfully than anything else – in a short while, half of it was gone!

Wang Shouzhe felt a sudden chill in his heart, he had a bad feeling.

Had he fallen into some kind of trap?

Did Wang Licui actually had no intention of luring the turtle onto the shore, and was simply tricking him into giving up his spirit fish…?

Afterward, she could just wipe her mouth and say that they were unlucky that day, the turtle didn’t take the bait, maybe the turtle didn’t like fish and so on.

The next day she would continue to wrangle tens of pounds of Spirit Horned Yak’s meat.

The more Wang Shouzhe thought about it, the more alarmed he became. This Licui girl, she has a history of such antics! How could he have trusted her so easily?

It was not until she and the little tiger had consumed two-thirds of it.

Then Wang Shouzhe slapped his forehead.

Err…Alright, I believe in your wicked cunning, you little Grand Aunt.

Just at this moment, the water near the lake’s edge stirred slightly, as a huge turtle slowly crawled onto the bank. Its mighty torso appeared quite frightening in the dim light, and it even bared its teeth at Wang Licui and the little tiger.

“A fierce beast.”

Wang Licui shouted, picked up the Little Tiger Huahua, and ran disappearing into thin air.

Then the big turtle proudly shook its head, stepping with heavy steps. It swung over to the grill, tilted its head as if pondering, is this grilled fish really that delicious?

Once it took a bite, a pound of grilled fish was gone.

Then the big turtle seemed possessed. It began to eat in large bites, probably regretting its skepticism and not coming ashore sooner to eat.

Wuu wuu~ Oh, Old Turtle has lived in vain for three hundred years.

In the forest, Ancestor Xiaohan flew out and lunged towards the big turtle.

The turtle’s head jerked, suddenly realizing that it had indeed fallen into a trap.

However, it seemed to be psychologically prepared for this. It didn’t forget to take a big bite of the leftover grilled fish with a “rawr”, spreading its claws and legs and dashing towards the lake.

Its running speed was at least tenfold faster than its pace when it crawled ashore. It covered the forty or fifty feet in just a couple of breaths.

It’s not surprising, considering this big turtle has lived for so long, its wisdom isn’t low. It had already estimated possible traps, but still dared to come ashore and eat, naturally, it had an escape route in mind.

It seemed to want to show humans that as a fierce beast-class turtle, not only could it run fast as the wind, but it could also leap into the air.

Taking advantage of the momentum of its swift run, while still a few feet away from the lake, it stomped its legs, and its massive, heavy turtle body indeed took to the air.

At this moment, it didn’t forget to blink with its turtle head still chewing on the grilled fish. It taunted Wang Xiaohan, who was trailing behind.

As if expressing the sentiment, without risks, how dare your grandpa turtle climb Mount Liang?

Don’t panic! Everything is under Grandpa Turtle’s control.

The huge turtle, in the air making an unsightly posture, crashed head-first into the lake. Once in the water, the world is big, and Grandpa Turtle can go anywhere.

Humans, thank you for the delicious food.

If it weren’t for a big chunk of grilled fish in its mouth, it could hardly resist the urge to cackle loudly to express its exhilaration.

Just when the big turtle was at its proudest moment.

Sudden!

A sneering light voice sounded.

“Haha, you’re happy too soon.” “Mysterious Ice Sword!”

In the night, a vague figure appeared, she swung her sword gently. But this sword isn’t aimed at the turtle, but at the surface of the lake.

This sword, which seemed light and easy, was enveloped in countless ice crystals’ frost.

When the sword fell on the lake’s surface.

In an instant, the intense icy chill of the Mysterious Ice spread rapidly along the crust. It managed to freeze more than a foot long of the lakeside surface into ice thick as a foot. Of course: the water was shallow near the shore thus she could freeze it rapidly and solidly.

“Clang!” “Crack!”

The turtle’s big head brutally hit the surface of the ice, crashing through the ice with its head and shoulder shells, shattering the ice surface.

Then, its head and front shell got stuck in the ice layer.

The four legs were in the air, desperately kicking!

This scene made Wang Shouzhe couldn’t help but laugh.

This big turtle is really too silly and cute. If you’re running, then run, why do you have to jump into the lake with such a graceful posture!

However, with Ancestor Longyan intercepting it, even if it didn’t leap into the lake, it wouldn’t be able to escape.

Wang Xiaohan charged forward, seized a claw, and fiercely yanked it back. He forcefully hauled it to the empty ground far away from the lake water.

“Haha~ you can run pretty well, why don’t you run now?”

Wang Xiaohan was quite angry with it, he directly flipped it over. The turtle shell was facing downward and the four limbs were facing up. Originally, the turtle could flip its body using its neck and head; however, since it had hit so severely just now, both its head and neck were injured.

It could only lay obediently facing the sky.

It reminded Wang Shouzhe of a joke about a partying turtle that couldn’t flip its body back…
