Chapter 746: Chapter 745: An Eye-Opener

"We won!" As the shichen struck signifying the end, Jadeite was the first to cheer, and those who had bet on the right outco also began to clap their hands.

Wufu watched Ah Jiu with a smile and said, "Ninth Master, I’m sorry to see you’ve lost a hefty sum!" With a wave of his hand, he commanded, "Boys, divide the money."

The crowd cheered and watched as Jadeite took a small pile of Silver and silver notes from Hoo Die’s side—dividing the spoils.

Hoo Die felt both dejected and too ashad to face Ah Jiu and the others, too humiliated!

Wufu walked up to him with a smile, patted him on the shoulder comfortingly, and said, "Don’t be downhearted, losing to this lady doesn’t count as a loss. After all, I’m like a ’cheat’ activated!"

"What do you an?" Hoo Die glared.

"It ans that the lady has mastered certain principles of spearing fish." Wufu wasn’t stingy with her teachings.

"Lady Wu, what do you an by that? Is there so principle in spearing a fish?" Soone asked, puzzled.

"Of course, to do a thing well, one must study its principles. Take spearing fish, for example, you see the fish as fish, but actually, what you see is not really the fish, and hence you miss," Wufu said with a smile.

"What does that even an?"

Wufu thought for a mont and then said, "Sort of like an illusion..." She then explained the principle of light refraction.

The audience was half-confused, half-enlightened, as one of them took a fish spear to experint: "Let this subordinate give it a try."

Indeed, as Wufu had said, even Hoo Die himself learned a lesson and looked at Wufu with complex emotions.

"Lady, what else is there? Please enlighten us so more!" The successful experinter imdiately surrounded Wufu, firing questions after questions.

Having thought it over, Wufu really had nothing else to impart, so she shared so tips on how to catch food more quickly in the wild when there was none to be had.

Ah Jiu watched the woman surrounded by a group of burly n, talking animatedly, her face illuminated by the light of the setting sun, looking even more stunning. He couldn’t help but curve his lips into a smile.

She wasn’t a paragon of beauty, but her attractiveness was incomparable to ordinary charms; for it was the radiance that confidence brings.

Wufu spoke until her mouth was dry before she let everyone disperse to their own duties, and sat down beside Ah Jiu, taking a sip of tea that he offered her.

"Wufu has once again enlightened

greatly today," Ah Jiu comnted with raised eyebrows.

Wufu picked up a piece of pastry, put it in her mouth, looked at him, and said with a smile, "I’ll take that as a complint."

"Of course," Ah Jiu said feigning distress, "Wufu knows too many things, I fear all of us can only surrender to you."

Wufu laughed proudly and said, "As it should be, the strong are indeed worthy of admiration and respect, right?"

"Yes, Wufu has my admiration as well."

Uh, was that a confession?

Wufu glanced at him, about to pick up another pastry, but Ah Jiu pressed on her hand: "Stop eating, dinner is about to start."

Reluctantly withdrawing her hand, Wufu watched the guards carry the two buckets of fish into the cabin kitchen before she said, "Hold on." She selected two exceptionally big and plump fish, and also had soone bring a plate.

Ah Jiu, full of curiosity, watched her movents. He wasn’t the only one; the guards who adored Wufu were also curious—what was the lady going to do?

It wasn’t until she skillfully used a small dagger to debone the fish, remove the flesh, peel the skin, slice it into pieces, and then put those thinly sliced pieces of raw fish into her mouth that everyone was astonished.

She, she was eating raw fish!
