Bai Zhiyong's depressed look was very interesting. When cleaning up after dinner, Jiang Ran and Ren Xiayang talked about this.

Ren Xiayang sighed, "Bian Yang's psychology is also human. The little orchid looks so fresh and tender, but... but now no one really dares to take it."

Jiang Ran suddenly grasped the key point: "Have you also had feelings for Xiao Lanhua?"

Ren Xiayang nodded awkwardly.

"Girl beauty is a disaster." Jiang Ran laughed so hard.

Ren Xiayang touched his nose and tried to change the subject.

"It was quite thrilling, actually. Your emergency life-saving bag didn't work. I don't know how the production crew prepared the logistics... Luckily, it was discovered early. Otherwise, if something happened when you were alone, it would have been a big problem."

Jiang Ran smiled and said, "How could I..."

The words suddenly got stuck in his throat and his expression became serious.

Ren Xiayang looked at her expression, wondering if he had misunderstood something: "I'm not cursing you, it's just..."

"Don't think too much, I know." Jiang Ran said seriously, "But in your eyes, there is still a possibility that something bad might happen to me, right?"

"There's definitely a chance." Ren Xiayang laughed at her, "But everyone is different. For someone as capable as you, the chances of something going wrong are definitely minimal."

Very little...

That means there is probability.

Jiang Ran suddenly woke up.

She was confident that nothing would happen in the five days, but no one else knew this before the competition officially started.

Jiang Ran couldn't help but think of the advanced weapon he had exchanged with Fu Bo. It was also damaged and ineffective, and even directly caused him to be trapped in the anaconda, and he almost activated the life-saving bag and was eliminated.

At that time, when Ji Fang said that the weapon was broken, Jiang Ran didn't believe it. He just thought that he didn't know how to use it. But now when the two things are connected together, Jiang Ran thinks that this may not be a coincidence.

"broken!"

"What's wrong?"

Jiang Ran clutched his sleeves.

If the weapons she exchanged with Fu Bo were damaged, would the supplies she exchanged with others also be unclean?

If there is a problem with the materials we rely on for survival, how high will the probability of a safety accident occur?

Thinking of this, Jiang Ran immediately began to recall who had fallen into his trap.

Bai Zhiyong, Fu Bo... Apart from those who have already arrived at the base, there are actually two more who are currently unaware of the situation!

"Do you know where Zeng Pei and Cheng Jing are?"

"What happened?"

"I have some guesses, and I can't explain them to you right away, but they might be in danger right now!"

After hearing this, Ren Xiayang didn't ask any more questions. Unfortunately, he had no idea about Zeng Pei and Cheng Jing's situation, so he could only ask other people.

This is when the benefits of having a small base become apparent.

After asking everyone in the base, Jiang Ran finally got a clue.

"Cheng Jing was eliminated the day before yesterday. It seemed like there was something wrong with the tools. The chain suddenly broke when he was hanging on the tree. His luck was really bad."

This isn't necessarily bad luck.

Jiang Ran blamed himself, his expression becoming even more serious. "What about Zeng Pei? Have you seen her?"

Another man stepped forward and said, "I saw her last night at the waterfall in the east, but a day has passed and I don't know if she is still there."

"Thank you very much!"

"You're welcome. Any other questions?"

"Just telling me this is a huge help!"

After Jiang Ran expressed his gratitude, he did not hesitate for a moment and quickly pulled Ren Xiayang to the east.

By this time the sun had completely set, and the rainforest was dark and silent. The dangers lurking in the darkness were only more terrifying than those in the daytime.

Overgrown bushes blocked their way from time to time. If it was daytime and the light was good, they could use sticks to push them away. But at this time, the environment was dim and the situation was urgent. The two men didn't have much time to pay attention to these details. When they arrived at the edge of Iguisu Falls, they already had many small wounds on their bodies.

Fortunately, we arrived in time.

When Jiang Ran and Ren Xiayang arrived, a crocodile was biting Zeng Pei's calf and dragging her into the water. Under the flashlight, Zeng Pei's calf was bloody, and the scene was extremely horrifying.

Crocodiles have particularly good eyesight at night and are more difficult to deal with than usual. Although the two rushed to rescue it immediately, it still took a long time to drive it back into the river.

"Your leg injury is too severe." Jiang Ran said hurriedly, "We brought an emergency life-saving bag, which can be used for you..."

However, Zeng Pei just waved his hand: "No need, just bandage it and it will be fine."

"The match doesn't end until midnight tomorrow night. If your injury is delayed for a day or two, it could easily cause irreversible damage..."

"My injuries are not serious."

"How is that possible?"

Seeing that they didn't believe him, Zeng Pei rolled up his trouser legs.

Jiang Ran took a closer look and found that she was not lying. Although the wound looked bloody at first glance, it was actually not deep.

"I found the crocodile in time and stuffed a piece of wood into its mouth before it bit me. Don't look at the blood on my legs, a lot of it is from the crocodile."

"That's good," Jiang Ran breathed a sigh of relief. "Luckily, it was a caiman, so it's not too dangerous."

Zeng Pei felt very regretful: "What a pity for that piece of wood. I searched for several days before I found a material with such high hardness, and now it's gone... I originally wanted to take it back and try to make a mecha energy frame! I don't know if I can find something similar with only one day left..."

Jiang Ran and Ren Xiayang: "..."

She didn't seem to particularly need help.

Jiang Ran was silent for a long time before he comforted her: "I will take you to find the iron birch tree tomorrow. It is the hardest tree on earth."

"Really?" Zeng Pei was even happier than when he was rescued. "Thank you so much! If you want to make mechas or repair machinery in the future, feel free to contact me. I'll give you a friendly price!"

Jiang Ran: "...Thank you."

"Oh right," Zeng Pei suddenly remembered something, "My injuries aren't serious or fatal, so the alarm shouldn't alert anyone nearby. So how did you find me?"

This was also Ren Xiayang's question, and he looked at Jiang Ran.

However, Jiang Ran thought carefully, since the mastermind behind this could not only destroy all her supplies, but also tamper with her emergency life-saving bag, he must have considerable power...

If she told this matter now, it would not only make the other party wary, but it might even bring danger to Ren Xiayang and Zeng Pei. This was not the outcome she wanted to see.

After much deliberation, Jiang Ran finally chose to brush it off with a few words, but avoided talking about the core issue.

Then she changed the subject, "Let's go back to camp first. Although your injury isn't serious, it needs to be disinfected and bandaged as soon as possible, otherwise it will get infected and it will definitely be a serious problem."

"Okay." Zeng Pei responded readily, then he lifted his injured leg and jumped forward a step, "You guys lead the way."

Ren Xiayang: "...Are you planning to jump over?"

Zeng Pei was very confused: "If I don't jump over it, do I have to crawl over it?"

Ren Xiayang: “…”

He squatted down: "Come on, I'll carry you."

Zeng Pei still refused: "This is not a good idea."

Jiang Ran laughed for a long time, and finally changed his way of persuading her: "The camp is far away from here. It's too slow for you to jump over by yourself. It will take too long and affect our rest. If you don't want him to carry you, I can carry you."

Zeng Pei then reluctantly agreed: "Okay." When he climbed onto Ren Xiayang's back, his face still looked reluctant.

Ren Xiayang: “…”

This tool has no dignity at all.

[Jiang Ran rescues another number of people +1]

[How many times is this today? ]

[The data-obsessed player stated: Zeng Pei is the 29th member of the camp and the 7th person rescued by Jiang Ran]

[Let's be honest, Zeng Pei wasn't saved by Jiang Ran, right? He could have handled it on his own.]

[Saved, but not completely saved]

[Okay, data updated. Zeng Pei is the 6.5th person rescued by Jiang Ran]

[Does the person above want to make me laugh to death so that he can inherit my optical computer? Hahahahaha]

[Building a base, cooking, and rescuing people. If the livestream hadn't indicated that only one day had passed, I would have thought a month had already passed for Jiang Ran.]

【Same feeling】

【……】

Unconsciously, the reputation in Jiang Ran's live broadcast room was gradually changing, and his popularity value dropped from negative 10 million to negative 6 million.

But even so, this popularity value is still firmly at the bottom, and no matter how high her performance score is, it can drag her down from the championship throne.

The bright moon hangs high in the sky and the stars are scattered.

The crisp sound of the leaf katydid and the long howl of the maned wolf sounded at the same time.

Tomorrow is the last day of the competition.

The author has something to say:

【Small Theater】

Amazon: I have iron birch trees here? How come I didn’t know about it?

Jiang Ran: The plot requires it, please bear with it.
