After hesitating for a long time, Xiao Baihe finally nodded.
"Okay! I'll try my best to overcome my fear."
Xiao Baihe decided to give it a try. He couldn't harm everyone because of himself.
"Don't be afraid, Cat and I will protect you."
Chen Jie put his hand on Xiao Baihe's shoulder, encouraging Xiao Baihe.
"Well, with you two here, I'm not afraid."
Xiao Baihe nodded, absolutely trusting Chen Jie and Mao'er 100%.
Chen Jie quickly went to get a bamboo pole and split it in the middle so that Xiao Baihe had something to hold on to and could feel more at ease.
"Captain, did you do this specially for me?"
Xiao Baihe felt a little distressed when she saw Chen Jie sweating all over her body.
"Well, if you have something to hold on to, you won't be so scared."
Chen Jie nodded and gave his answer.
"Captain, you are so kind to me."
Xiao Baihe looked at Chen Jie with excitement, and couldn't help but blush.
Only the captain cares whether she is happy or not.
"Yes, your captain is indeed very kind to you."
Mao'er said on the side, feeling very pleased with Chen Jie's actions.
At least, Chen Jie knows how to take care of girls.
"I told you I'm a super hot guy, but you still don't believe me."
Chen Jie looked at Mao'er speechlessly, feeling that Mao'er had misunderstood him.
"Yes, yes, everything you said is right."
Mao'er rolled his eyes, too lazy to argue with Chen Jie.
"What about the clothes?
When we go into the water, aren’t we all wet?”
Lily Xiao looked at her clothes and was a little worried.
"Put it in a bamboo basket, and I put leaves inside to make it slightly waterproof."
Chen Jie pointed to the big leaves he collected just to use them to wrap clothes.
Anyway, the bamboo basket is so light that it can float on the water.
"The idea is really good. The young man has a long-term vision."
Mao'er looked at Chen Jie appreciatively.
"Hahaha, do I still need to thank you for your compliment?"
Chen Jie looked at Mao'er speechlessly, thinking that Mao'er was just a tease.
"It's okay, but we girls don't have any clothes to take off. You just need to keep your clothes."
Mao'er looked at Chen Jie with a look of disgust.
Chen Jie "..."
Looking at the clothes on Mao'er and Xiao Baihe, Chen Jie also felt that he was overthinking.
He also couldn't let the girls take off their clothes.
"Captain, it's okay, the weather is so hot, even if your clothes get wet, they will dry soon."
Xiao Baihe opened her mouth to comfort Chen Jie.
"Well, let's go. I mainly want to take you on a shortcut."
Chen Jie nodded, and his mood was comforted by Xiao Baihe.
"Captain, you are the most considerate."
Xiao Baihe nodded and looked at Chen Jie with a moved face.
"good."
Chen Jie reached out and touched Xiao Baihe's head, and his mood became a little happier.
"Am I in the back or in front?"
The cat walked directly into the river.
Chen Jie carefully wrapped the pistol in clothes and leaves. He wrapped it several times and placed it higher under the bamboo basket to avoid getting wet.
After doing this, Chen Jie raised his head and saw that the cat had jumped into the river and floated up.
"Are you so impatient?"
Chen Jie smiled and looked at Mao'er.
"I just think the weather is too hot."
The cat reached out and brushed his hair.
Chen Jie once again made sure that the water would not wet the contents of the bamboo basket, and then walked towards the river with the bamboo basket.
"Captain, am I in front?"
Xiao Baihe saw that Chen Jie was dragging the bamboo basket, it was very hard, and she wanted to share some of the burden for Chen Jie.
"It's okay, the cat is in the front, you are in the middle, and I will protect you from the back."
Chen Jie said softly.
"Captain..." Xiao Baihe looked at Chen Jie with a moved face, feeling particularly sorry for Chen Jie.
"Okay, stop teasing girls here and leave quickly."
Mao'er felt that Chen Jie's words were getting more and more disgusting, and she couldn't bear it, so she quickly grabbed the bamboo pole and swam forward.
Xiao Baihe had Chen Jie behind him, a cat in front of him, and a bamboo pole in his hand. He became bolder and let himself go completely, letting his body swim along with the push of the river.
Taking the water route was indeed the fastest, and the three of them covered a long distance in no time.
"Cat, let's stop for a moment."
Chen Jie shouted.
"What's wrong?"
The cat was swimming happily, when it heard Chen Jie's voice, it stopped and looked at Chen Jie in confusion.
"Let's go ashore, I'm afraid there's danger below."
With his keen intuition, Chen Jie felt that there was some danger ahead.
"What's the danger?
The mountains you mentioned will be reached soon."
Mao'er pointed to the mountain ahead.
"Be good, listen to me and get ashore first."
Chen Jie believed in his intuition very much and felt that there was danger ahead.
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
The cat nodded and walked towards the shore with the bamboo pole.
Just walking out of the water, Xiao Baihe felt that her legs were as heavy as lead.
"Captain, we won't swim anymore."
Xiao Baihe looked at Chen Jie with a smile.
"I'm afraid there's danger ahead, so let's leave quickly."
Chen Jie reached out and twisted his clothes.
"It's okay, just take a walk and don't stay in the water all the time."
Xiao Baihe agreed and looked at Chen Jie with a smile.
Mao'er twisted his clothes neatly, with a look of disgust on his face...
"Cat, let's go."
Chen Jie carried the bamboo basket on his back and looked at Mao'er.
"Just leave this bamboo pole here."
Mao'er pointed to the bamboo pole on the ground, thinking that after returning, he could also use water channels.
It's less troublesome than walking and can also speed up your journey.
"good."
Chen Jie nodded and threw the bamboo pole in a safer place.
The three of them packed up and continued on their way.
After walking forward for a while, Xiao Baihe was startled and immediately took a few steps back.
"What's wrong?"
When Mao'er saw Xiao Baihe's appearance, he curiously took a few steps forward and his face darkened.
Fortunately, Chen Jie had just let them go ashore early. They had to follow the current. There was a waterfall in front of them, and looking at the depth, it must be at least seventeen or eighteen stories high. If they had fallen a little off, the three of them might have died directly.
"Sure enough, my judgment was correct."
Chen Jie seemed to have expected it a long time ago and was not surprised at all by the scene in front of him.
"Chen Jie, have you been here?"
Mao'er looked at Chen Jie curiously.
"No, it's my first time here too."
Chen Jie said without hesitation, with a sincere look on his face.
"Then how could you guess so accurately?"
Mao'er looked at Chen Jie suspiciously, with confusion on his face.
"intuition."
Chen Jie said without hesitation and looked calm.
Even though Mao'er suspected that Chen Jie had been here before, seeing Chen Jie's appearance at this time, Mao'er felt that he was overthinking it.
If Chen Jie has really been here before, there is no need to come again.
