"Into the Wild" is a celebrity version of a reality show. Each episode will have six guests participating in survival adventures in relatively harsh wild environments such as river valleys, mountains, and deserts. Due to the exciting and interesting content, the first season was very popular. Not long ago, the production of the second season was officially launched. The director immediately thought of the popular boy band Aurora, so he contacted Uncle Mai to inquire about his intentions.

This variety show is very popular, and the production crew has done a good job in safety measures, and will not set any abnormal tasks, so many celebrities have already taken a fancy to and booked the second season of "Into the Wild". The director wanted all six members of Aurora to participate, but there were not enough places, so he could only invite Ye Ying and He Xizhou to come first.

In mid-June, Ye Ying and He Xizhou came to a coastal city in the south and met up with the director team of "Into the Wild", where the six guests also met for the first time.

In addition to Ye Ying and He Xizhou, the guests included two men and two women: the 18-year-old well-known actor Guan Zhuo, the 24-year-old movie star Xia Nan, the 26-year-old well-known female singer Yan Yan, and Shang Xue, the center of a new girl group that was formed just two months ago.

The six people exchanged a few pleasantries, and then listened to the director explain the recording task to them: "The theme of our adventure this time is 'Desert Island in the Sea'. The staff has hidden seven flags on the island in advance. The guests have to collect all the flags to complete the task. But the deserted island is not small, so the collection process will take about 3-4 days. During these days, the guests have to find ways to survive on the deserted island and solve their own food and accommodation problems."

Guan Zhuo asked: "Are we supposed to bring our own equipment?"

"Sorry, no." The director said with a smile, "But we have prepared some basic equipment for you. The rest depends on your own ingenuity."

The "basic equipment" was two bulging black backpacks, which looked like they couldn't hold much stuff. But this was the show's rule, so the guests had no opinions. After confirming that there was a problem, the crew transported the six people to an island in the sea, handed them the two equipment bags, and then left.

Although it is indeed a deserted island with few people, the surrounding environment is not as scary as people imagine. In front of you is a blue sea, under your feet are vast beaches and scattered reefs, and behind you is a large wild jungle. Whether it is the sound of the rushing tide or the big coconut trees above your head that block the sun, they all give people a sense of vigorous vitality.

"Let's see what equipment is in the backpack first?"

Guan Zhuo was the oldest among everyone and felt that he should take the lead. He led the others to pack two backpacks and sorted out the items inside.

One of the bags contained mainly tools, including axes, knives, fishing nets, hemp ropes, etc.; the other bag contained some daily necessities, including flashlights, floral water, band-aids, matches, etc.

Ye Ying breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the matches: At least she didn't have to rub two sticks together to make fire.

He felt that the basic equipment prepared by the program team was already very friendly, but it was obvious that some people were not satisfied.

"That's all you have?" Xia Nan said with disappointment. "There's even sunscreen. I should have hidden a bottle earlier."

Guan Zhuo laughed: "Xiao Xia is really particular. Both girls thought of this."

"I have an important movie audition soon. If I get tanned, I'm doomed." Xia Nan muttered. As he spoke, he unexpectedly saw Ye Ying, who was wearing a casual short-sleeved shirt. The skin exposed in the sun was almost blindingly white. Xia Nan was surprised for a moment and couldn't help but say, "I found that you have the best skin here. Do you have any tips for maintaining it?"

Complimenting his skin in front of two ladies, I wonder if this guy is just mentally reckless. Ye Ying smiled and continued: "If we continue to stand in the sun, I'm afraid we will all get darker. Let's go to the shade to discuss the next plan first."

He Xizhou glanced at Xia Nan, picked up two backpacks and walked towards the shade. The rest of the people followed him unconsciously, responding to Ye Ying's words unconsciously.

After being exposed to the sun, everyone felt much calmer. Yan Yan asked, "It seems that the production team is not going to provide tents. How are we going to sleep at night?"

This is the issue that girls are most concerned about. The place is exposed to the sky and there are all kinds of mosquitoes and unknown creatures on the island. It would not feel safe if you just sleep on the ground.

"I guess I'll have to build my own place to live." Before coming here, Ye Ying watched some survival shows and memorized some of the director team's routines.

Xia Nan was incredulous: "Build a place to live by yourself? No way. How can you build a house in such a short time? And we have studied engineering construction."

He Xizhou: "What do you think the axe is for?"

Xia Nan choked. He felt that He Xizhou's tone was a bit unkind, but he had offended him before. He remembered that he had heard that this popular person had a bad temper, so he curled his lips before speaking.

Guan Zhuo is a big brother who likes to worry. Seeing that the atmosphere was a little strange, he quickly stepped out to ease the situation: "Since there are tools like axes, they should be used for us to cut down trees and build houses. But this is definitely not a job."

"Besides, there are six of us," Yan Yan said, "If two of us live together, we need to build a house. There won't be enough time, right?"

"Of course, what we want to build is not a traditional house." Ye Ying explained patiently, "The weather is very hot now, so we don't have to worry about keeping warm. But in humid places, it's sunny during the day and often rains at night, so we need to build a simple house support and then focus on building a rainproof roof."

Everyone nodded in agreement, and Shang Xue couldn't help but say, "Brother Ye knows a lot."

Ye Ying smiled at her: "I just did some homework in advance."

Although Shang Xue is the center of the girl group, she has always presented a sweet and loving image to others. She is also a little shy in private. Seeing Ye Ying smile at her, she blushed a little. She calmed down and asked again: "What should we use for the roof?"

Ye Ying: "I just saw a lot of fallen coconut leaves under some coconut trees. I can use some."

Coconut leaves have a large area, and stacking them together can indeed achieve a waterproof effect. Everyone nodded, and Shang Xue's admiration became more obvious. She wanted to say something else to Ye Ying, but He Xizhou interrupted her mercilessly: "Let's solve the accommodation problem first. Everyone split up, boys go cut tree trunks to use as supports, and girls go pick up coconut leaves."

Ye Ying was quick-witted and He Xizhou had a strong aura. Unconsciously, the two youngest members took on the role of team leaders. Although the others also wanted to show themselves on the show, they were not familiar with the field of wild survival. It was better to have someone leading than to be confused, so they all acted according to their words.

He Xizhou carried an axe to chop down trees, and Ye Ying followed behind him to drag away the branches and trunks he had chopped down. They worked very well together. After working so hard for more than half an hour, everyone had collected almost all the wood and leaves, and then started to build the house.

This was the first time for everyone to do this kind of work. They relied on Ye Yingqian's previous work to painstakingly cut grooves in the logs, then fit the wood together, roughly building a frame and covering it with coconut leaves.

"It really worked!" Shang Xue said excitedly as she looked at the simple wooden hut.

"It took almost two hours, and it was exhausting." Guan Zhuo's clothes were all wet, and he wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "This hut can only sleep two people at most, so we have to build two more."

The work just now had consumed a lot of energy, and the palms were slightly red from being rubbed by the bark. Xia Nan's throat was almost smoking: "Can we take a break first? I'm so thirsty, is there any water here?"

Shang Xue: "There are coconuts. Let's drink coconut juice."

They picked up a few large coconuts and used machetes to make holes in them. Two people drank directly from the coconuts. Ye Ying took a few sips from the coconut and passed it to He Xizhou, who took it and drank a few sips with his head tilted back, saying with a smile, "It's quite sweet."

...Nonsense. This coconut is fully ripe, what does it taste like? How can it taste sweet?

Ye Ying pretended to be deaf and ignored him. He Xizhou didn't say anything else. He picked up the coconut and took a few more sips.

After quenching their thirst and resting for a while under the shade of a tree, everyone got up and continued to build the second house. Practice makes perfect, and this time the speed was a little faster, but after finishing the work, they were really exhausted and didn't want to move a finger.

Xia Nan rubbed his sore wrist and said, "Why don't we squeeze in and sleep in one room?"

Ye Ying reminded: "Brother Xia, there are two girls."

Why can't you just squeeze in with the other girls?

Xia Nan was so tired that she had to think before she spoke. Now she was a little impatient: "What do you think we should do?"

Ye Ying's gaze fell on the woods behind the beach, and she suddenly thought of something.

He took out a ball of hemp rope from his equipment bag: "Brother He, come and help me."

He Xizhou didn't ask him what he was going to do. He just stood up and followed him. When he passed by Xia Nan who was sitting on the ground to rest, he stepped hard and shoveled dirt off half of his body.

Xia Nan: “…”

Ye Ying asked He Xizhou to help him carry a bunch of coconut leaves, walked to the edge of the woods, found a big tree that formed a corner, and wrapped the thick hemp rope around the tree. He Xizhou quickly understood and smiled and said, "Captain is really smart."

"Stop flattering and get to work." The captain said with a deliberately stern face.

The two men put coconut leaves on hemp ropes to form a "roof", and a simple shelter was built.

Several other people also came over, and Guan Zhuo praised, "What a great idea!"

Xia Nan said: "If we had thought of this solution earlier, wouldn't we have to go through the trouble of building a house?"

His words seemed to blame Ye Ying for coming up with this idea earlier. Yan Yan glared at him coldly: "Why didn't you come up with it earlier?"

Xia Nan choked again.

"It's still a wooden house." Ye Ying said, "Houses built by the sea are more ventilated and have fewer mosquitoes. But it's not the same here. There are a lot of mosquitoes at night, and I guess I can't sleep well."

He turned to He Xizhou and asked, "Brother He, shall we sleep here tonight? We can build a wooden house tomorrow."

He Xizhou: "I'll do whatever you say."

Ye Ying made this suggestion not to show that she was "selfless". First of all, we must not let the two girls come here to feed mosquitoes. In addition, Guan Zhuo and Xia Nan are older and debuted earlier. They are their elders in the circle, so we cannot arrange for them to live here.

It is one thing to not let yourself be wronged based on your principles, but you also have to be polite.

With intelligence, emotional intelligence, personality, and this face, it would be hard for Ye Ying not to win the hearts of the people. Shang Xue could no longer conceal her admiration for him. Even Yan Yan, who always presented herself as a queen, smiled at Ye Ying: "No wonder Brother Ye is so popular. He is also considerate."

Ye Ying smiled and replied: "Sister Yan is exaggerating."

After solving the accommodation problem, the next thing to solve is food.

They arrived on the island at around ten o'clock, and it was almost evening now. They had been working and had nothing to do, so they were almost starving.

"Let's go to the woods and find something to eat." Guan Zhuo said, "There must be some fruit, and if we're lucky we might even catch a pheasant or something."

So we walked together into the woods. Although this forest was not very large, we found it was completely different from what it looked like when we entered it. If the seaside and the beach were still full of sunshine and fresh air, entering this forest was like a completely different world. Not only did the light immediately dim, but the ground was also full of weeds and rocks, and there were also gnarled tree roots that could trip you up if you weren't careful.

Everyone carefully pushed aside the tangled branches in front of them and looked up to see if there were any fruits on the trees. Just after walking a little further, Shang Xue shouted in surprise: "Hey, there are mangoes here!"

Yan Yan and Ye Ying also saw a mango tree. Shang Xue was about to reach out to pick some mangoes, but suddenly found a flower spider almost the size of an egg lying on the trunk!

"ah!!!"

She suddenly screamed, and Yan Yan also saw it and followed suit, ignoring her queenly image and screaming at a decibel level. Although Ye Ying didn't scream, she felt creepy for a moment and took two steps back in panic.

The two girls saw the big He Xizhou from the corner of their eyes, and instinctively grabbed his arm and hid behind him. He Xizhou didn't care about the two girls behind him at all, and immediately stepped forward and pulled Ye Ying over to half-protect her in his arms: "Are you scared?"

Ye Ying calmed down and rubbed her arms: "It's just... a little scary. I felt my hair stand on end just now."

He Xizhou also reached out to rub his hands for him: "If you're afraid, he's already run away. Follow me later."

Ye Ying nodded.

Xia Nan and Guan Zhuo looked at the scene in front of them with somewhat strange expressions: Shang Xue and Yan Yan, two beauties, one big and one small, were hiding behind He Xizhou with a pitiful look on their faces. He Xizhou also turned his head, half-hugging Ye Ying, and comforted her in a gentle voice as if coaxing someone.

Xia Nan thought, this is the most outrageous straight man I’ve ever seen in my entire life!

Guan Zhuo thought, they are indeed from the same group, the team mates have real feelings!
