Chapter 35 What exactly did Yu Shuling go through? ...

After breakfast, the group gathered to discuss their next move.

Some of the bolder guests wanted to split up because they heard it was an individual battle and were afraid of conflicts later. They thought it would be better to separate early to avoid turning teammates into enemies later, and if there were supplies later, they could take more by themselves.

Those who are timid and cautious might want to follow two experienced MCs who know how to play, at least they won't go astray.

Luo Ziqi whispered:

"Actually, I forgot to tell you something: I have a terrible sense of direction and I'm terrified of small villages without road signs..."

At first, she confidently claimed to be very strong when questioned by Xiao Shu, but now that her "persona" has collapsed, no one says anything, just taking it as Luo Ziqi joking back then.

Fitness instructors tend to work individually, so Tao Liang invited Mu Yubing to team up with him. Jiang Wenxi also planned to go it alone. Yu Shuling had never intended to team up with so many people, so she directly asked Chuan Nai for his opinion.

Kawana thought for a moment and said, "How about we go alone together too?"

Kawana didn't want to be with so many people either, not because of social anxiety, but because she shared similar thoughts with those who were going to separate. If supplies were needed later, how to distribute them would become a problem.

Although the atmosphere was quite harmonious in the morning, the team is now completely fragmented, which is exactly the effect the production team wanted. They're grinning from ear to ear. They've prepared quite a few NPCs waiting for them to separate.

Yu Shuling didn't want to team up with those people for a simple reason: she had a mission to complete, which made her different from everyone else.

The theme of this episode is to investigate the pollution of the water source in the longevity village. Everyone will naturally head towards the water. However, according to the program team's design, Yu Shuling feels that in such a short time, there will only be some clues, but most of them will be miscellaneous and designed to confuse people. It is impossible for people to collect all the clues at once and pass the level easily.

Where do you want to go?

Seeing that the other guests had already left with their bags, Kawana asked her teammates for their thoughts, but Yu Shuling immediately said:

"I think the most urgent thing is to find a place to stay as our base for the night."

Kawana didn't understand, but she asked anyway, "Why?"

Yu Shuling shrugged: "It's very simple. If you were the director team, would you give the players a relatively peaceful place to stay, so comfortable, with a place to wash up, almost like a farmhouse?"

Yu Shuling felt something was wrong when she entered this "village" last night.

Judging from last night's setup, they were practically just here for a vacation. However, when they were getting their survival packs, Yu Shuling noticed that some people had tents in their packs, which meant that they would definitely be useful later on. The production team wouldn't make the players do such useless work.

So afterwards they either have to find a place to stay through some means, or they have to find a place to stay on their own. This place is just a temporary resting place to lull them into a false sense of security. If they don't look carefully because they have a place to stay today, they will definitely regret it later.

Kawana: That makes some sense.

The assistant director, who was staring at their screen, saw this and ripped off his hat, throwing it to the ground.

"Did one of you spoil the plot for her? How does she open her third eye?!"

The planning for this episode was mainly done by the assistant director, who was surprised that Yu Shuling had so many ingenious ideas.

At first, he wanted to create a CP (couple pairing) between Yu Shuling and Jiang Wenxi. It didn't work out, but the next day he locked the door. This episode's male guest was quite capable, managing to get out. He had locked the door before, but some clumsy male guests just waited for the female guest to come to their rescue. They were even tricked by the clever female guest, which amused the audience and made that scene trend on social media.

He thought there were many traps and pitfalls in this episode, but Yu Shuling exposed him right away.

After all, let alone these little tricks and schemes, Yu Shuling had stopped using even some of the tricks in modern palace dramas when she was ten years old.

Xiao Shu and Zhou Ya have played so many episodes together, so of course they know the routine of "The Wilderness Secret".

At the suggestion of the production team, Xiao Shu and Zhou Ya did not tell the guests about their accommodations, so that they would receive an "unexpected surprise" when they thought they had no worries.

Zhou Ya was somewhat better; she offered a subtle hint, but unfortunately, no one understood her suggestion and rushed out to find water.

The sun was blazing today, and by 10 a.m., the entire village exuded a desolate atmosphere under the scorching sun. The dry ice from yesterday had been removed, and the air was even drier. After wandering around for an hour, Yu Shuling and Chuan Nai found a small wooden cabin in another part of the wheat field. It was quite sturdy, and inside there were pots and pans, as well as men's trousers, clearly "traces" of someone having lived there.

Yu Shuling was quite satisfied with the environment. The only problem was the dirty pants. Yu Shuling tidied up the bedside table as if she were inspecting her own territory, and casually tossed the pants to Chuan Nai.

The beautiful blonde girl with brown eyes grabbed her pants, ran over and threw them out. When she returned, all the "unwanted" traces in the room had been removed by Yu Shuling, and the whole room looked brand new.

When Kawana went out, she did a task on the side: imitating actions. This was a piece of cake for someone with her high level of coordination. In return, she got two bottles of ice water and brought them over to Yu Shuling.

Looking at the blazing sun outside, even with modern technology like sunscreen, Yu Shuling didn't want to go out and experience the scorching heat. She picked up a palm-leaf fan from the table, fanning herself while handing the ice water to Kawana.

"The sun is so strong, let's lie here for a while."

Clues aren't urgent. She just discovered Animal Chess and Gomoku here. Modern people really know how to enjoy life; even variety shows have these kinds of good things!

Kawana understood and helped Yu Shuling, who was busy, unscrew the bottle cap. Suddenly remembering the used items, she asked curiously:

Where did you put those things?

She didn't go far, so why couldn't she be seen when she came back?

Yu Shuling didn't react for a moment, then casually said "Oh":

“I ‘sent’ it to the house next door.”

Kawana nodded, then slowly realized what was happening.

Wait a minute, has she been led astray?

Why does Yu Shuling feel that there's nothing wrong with her taking over someone else's place?

Yu Shuling wasn't like this before. What exactly happened to her after appearing on the dating reality show?
