The Qilin jade pendant at the auction was worth over a hundred million, yet Luo Shiqi casually gifted it to Ye Shikai, giving Su Ziqing a small advantage, it was truly a matter of going with the flow.
"That witty girl really knows how to take advantage," Ye Shikai said with a laugh, descending the stairs. He grabbed some bread and milk. Since he didn't have to head to the company today, he was somewhat idle. To be honest, Su Qingyu had given him some shares and invited him to attend the meeting this time, but she respected him enough not to appoint him to a company position, sitting in the boss's chair handling documents, living a life that's busy yet hollow, that's not Ye Shikai's fate, at least, such a life had no meaning. If it were just about making money, Ye Shikai wouldn't need to work at all; he could just sleep in bed.
If the money from the Netherworld Palace were stacked up, it could form a mountain...
Ye Shikai changed into casual clothes as he was heading to the Dragon Teeth Special Forces training base. He heard that last time when caught in danger at Camp Mountain, Han Ruoyao almost called her dad Han Jiang for help upon hearing Ye Shikai's name, Han Jiang nearly notified Yan Kuan to send the Dragon Teeth Special Forces out for a search. After all, Ye Shikai is their instructor, so if the instructor is in trouble, they'd certainly set out to find him.
However, in the end, Yan Kuan didn't dispatch the Dragon Teeth Special Forces. Those are Huaxia's elite troops; when they act, it's earth-shattering, which Ye Shikai understood. He himself was once a captain, and if given the choice, he would have done the same.
"Captain Ye, you've arrived," said Wen Ya when Ye Shikai entered the building after his car drove into the base. Ye Shikai remembered last time during the joint exercise between the SAD Special Forces and Dragon Teeth, Wen Ya was responsible for the exercise matters here. Despite her name being Wen Ya, Ye Shikai knew she was the number one in women's Sanda.
"Wen Ya, what a coincidence." Ye Shikai smiled slightly, "Uh, I'm no longer captain now, in the future, you should call me Instructor Ye." Ye Shikai smiled awkwardly, it seems the "Ye Shikai era" of Dragon Teeth has a profound impact. Lest we forget, the current captain Ouyang Feng was once Ye Shikai's "apprentice," following his lead. The training methods also continued Ye Shikai's arrangements from back then.
"Alright then, Instructor Ye, I haven't seen you in a long time, how come, last time during camping in the mountains you got trapped?"
"Haha, Wen Ya, don't tease me," Ye Shikai said with a chuckle. Truth be told, being trapped in the mountains as a former Dragon Teeth Special Forces captain is quite embarrassing, but it wasn't actually like that. Firstly, Su Ziqing was present at the time, while Ye Shikai could eat snakes and bugs in the wild, cross mountains and rivers, could Su Ziqing do that? Secondly, aside from the Netherworld Palace and Moon God Temple, the outside world, including Dragon Teeth Special Forces, National Security Bureau, and police, were unaware that Dongfang Lian led people to ambush Ye Shikai. These were all arranged by Wuyan, who once cautioned Han Ruoyao and Su Ziqing in the camping base rest area not to inform others about Dongfang Lian and her subordinates. Hence, Han Ruoyao only mentioned to Han Jiang that Ye Shikai and others fell off the mountain, while omitting Dongfang Lian's matters.
If the National Security Bureau knew about Dongfang Lian, she and her subordinates would likely have been caught and imprisoned by now.
No need to say more, trying to harm Ye Shikai, Dragon Teeth Special Forces wouldn't stand for it. If Yan Kuan had known someone was ambushing Ye Shikai below at that time, he would have certainly dispatched Dragon Teeth.
"Alright, Instructor Ye, today the chief went to headquarters for a meeting, you came at an inconvenient time." Wen Ya explained the situation after laughing.
"I didn't come looking for the chief anyway, I came to find my brothers."
"Coincidentally, I need to head to the Dragon Teeth Special Forces station, let's go together." Wen Ya said lightly, Ye Shikai didn't refuse either, Wen Ya drove a super imposing military jeep, and they bumped along all the way. Unexpectedly, today the special forces were undergoing special training in the mountains, and even Ye Shikai felt sore sitting through the dozens of kilometers of mountain road, while Wen Ya was visibly excited, truly acting like a quick rabbit, once active, it's really frightening, arriving at the station, Wen Ya astonishingly showed no signs of fatigue.
Bang bang bang.
Just as they got out of the car, a burst of gunfire sounded outside, a rather nice "welcome ceremony."
"Good day, Instructor." A special forces member stationed at the site immediately came up to greet them.
"Where's everyone else?"
"Captain Ouyang and Monkey Leader are leading the team in an exercise outside, they're likely to return in the evening," the member replied.
"Instructor Ye, seems like you really came at an inconvenient time," Wen Ya teased again.
"Forget it, I'll first find some dinner for them," Ye Shikai gazed at the camping equipment nearby and had a new idea.
"What are you planning to do?" Wen Ya asked curiously, watching Ye Shikai organizing his gear. The special forces clothing was high-quality, water-resistant, insect-proof, with a knife and a climbing axe, even a crossbow, all of Ye Shikai's favorites.
"Naturally, go hunting in the mountains." Ye Shikai slung the crossbow on his back and also took a marching bag.
"Great, I want to go too, and I have identification signs from the exercises to prevent friendly fire," Wen Ya said enthusiastically.
"Alright then, go change into your gear."
Twenty minutes later.
"We're heading to the mountains to hunt, you keep an eye on the station."
"No worries, Instructor, I'll be waiting for the extra meal you bring us tonight." The member gestured "OK," recalling the time during a survival training when Ye Shikai caught a snake, becoming the team's dinner. This was some wild fare, unlike those travel mountains; this was the original forest, with everything available, including beasts.
"Do you often train in the mountains?" Ye Shikai asked while walking. "Training in the mountains" was his term, meaning outdoor drills, sometimes combat training, other times survival training with just a knife and water bottle, wandering the deep mountains.
"Of course, the women's team also has to train," Wen Ya replied somewhat indignantly.
"Really?" Just as Ye Shikai spoke, he suddenly grabbed the crossbow and shot at a nearby tree branch.
Whoosh.
"Let's go, take a look, I think we've got tonight's appetizer," Ye Shikai said with a smile, and as they walked forward, the crossbow arrow penetrated deeply into the tree trunk, and on it was a moderately thick snake, its head pierced by the crossbow arrow, Wen Ya gasped in surprise, that was incredibly accurate.
Ye Shikai used a knife to cut off the snake's head and put the body in his bag; the crossbow arrow was still usable.
"So, how's my instructive skills, not bad, right?" Ye Shikai handed the crossbow to Wen Ya, signaling her to bag the second prey.
