As a laid-off reemployed worker, Yun Jian was accidentally swept into a real-life survival game when she had nowhere else to turn. She was also 'lucky' enough to acquire a special attribute...
[Ever since I learned about her new task yesterday, I haven't slept a wink, eagerly awaiting her latest brilliant idea. Turns out she's going to make paper?! Please put all that nonsense aside for now; I just want to know how you're going to complete this task!]
[Yes, I'm so curious too! Can you give me a little hint?]
Excuse me, I came from Weibo. Is this really a wilderness survival scenario? Why are they living in such nice houses?
[Same as above, I checked other players' livestreams and found they were still living in those makeshift tents made of leaves and vines. Compared to this, it's incredibly shabby. Is there really no foul play involved?]
[Can the person upstairs please refrain from spouting nonsense if you don't know the answer? Just watch the replay and you'll understand! No more blindly following the crowd to criticize!]
【Do we even need to criticize her? I think she's out of options this time. She's just trying to grab attention by starting a paper mill, creating a buzz. Anyway, the system will cover for her in the end!】
[Seriously, is she planning to make a bulletproof vest out of paper? Don't be ridiculous, just look at how laughable that is!]
[Leaving aside bulletproof vests, let's talk about papermaking. Is it really that easy? Does she really think she's some kind of female protagonist in a novel, with a protagonist's halo around her?]
Yun Jian had no idea that these people were arguing again because of her. She and Liang Song had scouted the area when they were picking up stones, so they were quite familiar with it. They found a bamboo forest not long after they started walking.
The three men used stone axes and entrenching tools respectively. Although their speed was not fast, it was still acceptable.
After chopping for a while, Yun Jian suddenly stood up, put the stone axe into his system inventory, and hurriedly told the two brothers, "You guys keep chopping, I'll be gone for a bit."
Liang Song had no objections and even reminded Yun Jian to be careful.
But Liang Shan was still unconvinced. Once Yun Jian was out of sight, she started to complain, "Xiao Song, you're already weak, you should stop and rest for a while! She's slacking off, why are you working so hard?"
Liang Song gently stopped him, saying, "Brother, don't talk nonsense! Boss Yun is a girl, so her physical strength is naturally weaker. Besides, she's not that kind of person."
"We're all in the wilderness, what's the point of distinguishing genders? If we hadn't met her, she would have had to do all these things herself!"
Liang Song sighed, "Brother, if you don't want to do it, just stay out of the way. I don't know where you get such a big problem with her!"
"I'm so angry. We can clearly survive on our own, so why do you insist on becoming her servant? And she's a woman who can't lift a finger."
As he spoke, Liang Shan's voice grew softer and softer.
[What's wrong with women? Women hold up half the sky too!]
[I can't believe this big guy is sexist! Even if Yun Jian were a woman, she'd still be way better than him, okay?]
[What do you mean by discrimination? What did this big guy say wrong? Wasn't it Yun Jian who ran away halfway through cutting bamboo? Wasn't she the one who went to slack off? This Yun Jian only knows how to scheme; she has absolutely no sense of responsibility!]
[Calm down, everyone. Maybe Yunjian just went to the restroom?]
Liang Song remained silent for a while before continuing Liang Shan's words, "We can indeed survive on our own, but it will be very difficult. However, following Yun Jian, although it will also be difficult, we will gain much more."
Liang Shan snorted, "I'd rather get less, but I hope my brother and I can be free and not be bound by anyone."
On the other side, Yun Jian looked down at the low trees at his feet, a slight smile playing on his lips. Sure enough, the fruit was ripe at this time.
When I was little, whenever I visited my maternal grandmother, she would always run up the mountain to pick these wild raspberry berries. Their sweet and sour taste left a lasting impression on me.
After clearing away all the wild fruit, Yun Jian returned to the bamboo forest.
At this moment, a pile of bamboo as tall as a person had already been stacked around Liang Song. He sat alone next to the bamboo pile, slightly panting, but Liang Shan was nowhere to be found.
Yun Jian frowned, glancing around at the surroundings. "Where's your brother?"
Liang Song replied, "He said he was thirsty after working for so long, so he went to find a water source."
Upon hearing this, Yun's expression remained unchanged, but she slowed her pace considerably.
There was a spring right behind their dwelling, so they always brought plenty of water with them when they came out. Even if they drank all the water, they could just go back and get more. There was no need to look for a new water source.
So...it's a trap!
As if she hadn't noticed anything, she took out some wild berries she had just picked and said with a smile, "I just picked some wild berries, have a taste."
Liang Song was silent for a moment, then said, "Give me five first!"
Yun Jian lowered her head and counted five. Just as she reached out to hand them to Liang Song, she suddenly jumped to the side.
Then he immediately circled around to Liang Song from the side, intending to take him away.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she moved, she heard Liang Song cry out in pain, and at the same time, she felt a resistance coming from her hand.
Liang Song shook his head with a wry smile. Because he had been pulled, his body was lying on the ground at an angle, and a thin thing that looked like a fishing line was tied around his exposed ankle.
The other end of the fishing line was tied to Lao Gao's body.
"We meet again!" Old Gao greeted Yun Jian with a grin, but his eyes were full of resentment and hatred.
Yun Jian noticed that Lao Gao walked with a limp.
Noticing Yun Jian's gaze, Lao Gao suddenly roared wildly, "Are you satisfied? This is your masterpiece! You made me lose half a leg, so you should know why I only tied his foot, right?"
Yun Jian sneered: "What does it have to do with me? It's not like I cut off your foot."
Old Gao's smile froze, his heart pounding with anger at those words. "None of your business? If you hadn't set the animal traps, would my foot have been caught?"
"That's a problem with the bear traps. Go find whoever bought them."
Lao Gao: "..."
Damn, thank goodness he doesn't have a heart condition.
To vent his frustration, Lao Gao pulled hard on the fishing line, dragging Liang Song backward.
Because the fishing line was too thin, when Lao Gao exerted force, the fishing line cut into Liang Song's skin.
Seeing this, Lao Gao was particularly smug. "You'd better think it over. If you provoke me again, I'll use more force, and this fishing line will turn into a knife. At that time, I don't know if this kid will still be able to keep his foot."
Yun Jian's face was gloomy. He didn't say anything, but his face clearly said two words: "You dare!"
Old Gao scoffed at her attitude and chuckled, "People like me who are physically disabled often have psychological issues too. You'd better not challenge my bottom line. Just hand over all your resources and I might consider letting this kid go."
Yun Jian didn't move, his gloomy gaze fixed on Lao Gao and the fishing line in his hand.
Seemingly reading her thoughts, Old Gao chuckled, "Do you know what this line is called? Let me tell you, it's called the fishing line that never breaks!"
