Sang Ning thought about it and agreed, saying, "Then I'll trouble the person in charge to handle the follow-up."

The person in charge said there was no problem, and then, Sang Ning reluctantly left the unknown tree and continued on her way.

As time passed, the light in the forest grew dimmer and dimmer. Most importantly, Sang Ning's water supply was running out, and she urgently needed to replenish it.

The mountains and forests are rich in resources, and food is plentiful, but water is hard to find.

More than an hour later, Sang Ning stopped and said happily, "We've found a water source."

audience,"!!!"

The audience was in an uproar.

[···]

[What the heck? Weren't they all frowning and saying they had no water source? How did they find one so quickly?]

Where is the water source? Take us to see it!

Now that we've found a water source, let's get some before it gets completely dark, then find a place to spend the night, as water sources are quite dangerous at night.

[I hadn't remembered until you mentioned it upstairs. Now I do. It's true. Ningning, you absolutely mustn't think you can just stay by the water source overnight because you're strong enough. Let me tell you, if you do that, you're not a hero, you're just courting death, you know?]

The audience had no doubt that Sang Ning had found a water source, but they were extremely worried that she would make a crazy decision to stay overnight by the water source, and the barrage of comments went crazy.

They all advised her to quickly fetch the water and leave, finding a safe place to spend the night.

Sang Ning felt both helpless and amused. She said, "Don't worry, I'm not that brain-dead."

"Enough with the small talk, let's head to the water source now."

The audience found it a bit strange. They didn't hear any sound of flowing water, but only the various calls of small animals in the forest, the rustling of leaves in the wind, and the sound of Sang Ning's feet stepping on the thick fallen leaves.

The only sound they didn't hear was the flowing water.

How exactly did you find the water source?

I now seriously doubt whether I'm deaf, or maybe there's something wrong with the sound recording system on the show's live streaming wristbands.

Manager Luo couldn't take it anymore. He jumped out and said that the bracelet was fine, the sound system was fine too, and the problem was with Sang Ning.

Sang Ning complained, "Don't try to pin the blame on me. I'm fine, I'm perfectly normal."

The person in charge then said, "Then tell me, how did you discover the water source?"

"Rely on this."

Sang Ning pointed to her ears, nose, and eyes, "The most direct way is to look for them through hearing and sight."

As she spoke, Sang Ning explained in detail her experience of finding water sources by hearing and sight. After she finished speaking, she added, "However, I usually don't rely on sight to find them. I prefer to rely on hearing and smell."

"I have good hearing and my nose is quite sensitive to certain smells."

“Places with water sources are generally windy, and in addition, the air is also more humid.”

"People who live near water sources, such as the seaside, lakeside or riverside, will know this: when the wind blows, it is cool because it carries moisture."

"This feeling is especially pronounced in summer."

【(⊙o⊙)…Um, can I say I've experienced what Sang Ning described? Especially in the sweltering summer, there's a huge river in front of my house, easily over a thousand meters wide. When the wind blows, wow, it's truly bone-chillingly cold.】

I live by the sea, and I feel the same way.

My house doesn't have a river or the sea, but it does have a swimming pool. Why don't I feel this way?

How big is the swimming pool?

[It allows a family of five giant snow wolves to swim freely inside simultaneously without interfering with each other.]

That area is quite large; you shouldn't be able to not notice it.

【That's normal. If I remember correctly, the Snow Wolf clan is a race with extremely high cleanliness standards. They wash the swimming pool before swimming and drain the water immediately afterward. It's not surprising that you wouldn't notice it when there's no water.】

[Upstairs, why do you know so much about our Snow Wolf clan? Are you perhaps one of us?]

I'm not, but I have friends who are.

"Oh, I see. Is your friend there? If so, have him/her come out so we can catch up."

"Okay, I'll go get him."

Then, the topic in the live stream went off-topic again, but Sang Ning ignored it and quickened her pace to continue her journey.

Soon, she crossed the mountainside, where increasingly lush trees blocked her view, making the light filtering through the dense foliage even dimmer.

This line of sight was no longer suitable for continuing forward, but Sang Ning remained unmoved and continued on.

The further you go in, the stronger the wind becomes, and the louder the rustling of the branches and leaves.

The viewers in the live stream felt that Sang Ning's current environment and the atmosphere as if she were the only person in the world were a bit scary, making them feel a little uneasy.

Just as they were thinking about whether to give her a reward to embolden her, a faint and subtle sound came into their ears through the excellent sound quality of the microphone.

"Here it comes! I can hear the sound of flowing water!"

I heard it too. It's hard to judge the size of the water source from the sound, but it must be urgent.

It's really urgent.

This is a river hidden among unknown vegetation several meters high. Judging from its course, it should come down from the mountaintop. The current is very rapid and the water is very clear. However, the depth of the riverbed is uneven.

Sang Ning looked around and found that the mountain river was more than two meters wide, and the water was about one or two meters deep in some places, while the water in the shallow areas could not even submerge the pebbles on the riverbank.

Upon arriving at the riverbank, Sang Ning didn't rush to fetch water. Instead, he walked around the riverbank and clapped his hands to announce something.

"I'm going to spend the night here."

audience,"???"

The audience erupted again.

Are you stupid? You think just because you don't see any animals now means there won't be any later? Let me tell you, the mountains and forests are dangerous. Be careful, or a large predator might come to drink water and find you looking so delicious and tender that it won't be able to resist its craving and will snatch you up and eat you.

[Ningning, please don't do anything reckless! I'm begging you, please don't do anything reckless! You need to know how hard you've come this far. Just a little more perseverance and you'll achieve final victory. There's really no need to take this risk.]

[Yes, just think about the readily available bonus and the livable star rating, aren't those two appealing?]

"fragrant!"

Sang Ning said firmly, "But I'm not going to change my mind. I'll prepare a nest first."

As she spoke, she took the dagger and quickly got to work.

The audience was dumbfounded, staring in disbelief as she used a dagger to cut a pile of reeds and stacked them to the side. Then she took out the memory metal she was carrying from her basket, shaped it into a strange shape, and began digging in the soil where the reeds had been removed.

Yes, they weren't mistaken, nor were they seeing things; Sang Ning was indeed digging.
