After hearing Huang Jingyu's concerns, Ye Zi turned to look at Da Shan and said:

"No major problems. The camp is almost ready. We'll gradually improve it. The main focus now is on stockpiling food."

Although you won't find fruit here, there are definitely plenty of animals. Given enough time, you could make not only bedding, but also several fur coats.

When Er Ya arrives, make do with my two wolf pelts for now; I'm going to beat up the bear.

The yellow whale said solemnly:

“One for you, one for me, that way her bedding will be complete. We'll both have warm fur coats, so you won't get cold.”

"So, you're really planning to hunt bears?"

Ye Zi nodded seriously and said:

"Yes, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to eat bear meat, it would be a shame not to seize it. Plus, the breast meat is high in fat, which is perfect for our current situation."

The yellow whale smiled wryly:

"But our weapons are too rudimentary when facing a bear. Although I said that you are the warrior and responsible for taking damage, and I am responsible for ranged attacks, that was just a joke."

Ye Zi exclaimed in surprise:

"Even though you're joking, I have to say we're on the same page."

Actually, our weapons aren't rudimentary; we can make a spear from your military knife later.

After finding the bear, I first shot it with an arrow to draw its aggro, then used my spear to bleed it, and finally went up and beat it to death.

In this way, food reserves were secured, and the bedding problem was solved—a win-win situation.

We can also try bear paws while we're at it; it's illegal to eat them in China.

The yellow whale hadn't expected that it had only hunted some pheasants and rabbits a few days ago, without even seeing a single wolf.

The discussion about hunting is so grand right off the bat.

He smiled wryly:

"Isn't there any other way to obtain fur and food?"

Yes, moose.

"Come on, that thing may be vegetarian, but it's not vegetarian."

Standing two meters tall and three meters long, weighing nearly a ton, and with those massive horns on its head, it's no less dangerous than a bear.

Ye Zi teased:

"Have you done your homework?"

The yellow whale nodded and said:

"What you're saying is ridiculous. I had at least ten days, and besides practicing archery, I did some research."

"A single moose hide can be used as both a tarpaulin and a cover. It produces a large quantity of tender meat, and the moose heart is even more delicious. Are you willing to give it up?"

The yellow whale looked at the leaf in horror. "An animal of such a large size has such thoughts, and even tries to seduce me. Is that appropriate?"

Ye Zi continued in a low voice:

"Do you still want those bearskin underwear?"

"Forget it, I think rabbit fur is pretty good too," Yellow Whale immediately said.

"Haha, let's go, let's finish today's food first."

After saying this, Ye Zi drew her bow, nocked an arrow, and walked forward.

Since the shelter had been built and there was nothing else to do at the camp, the two had a whole day to hunt.

After a morning of hunting, when they returned to camp, Huang Jingyu was carrying three rabbits and had two pheasants tied around his waist.

Ye Zi was mainly responsible for output, so apart from the bow and arrows in her hand and the quiver at her waist, she didn't carry much prey, only two wild rabbits.

The two spent the whole morning wandering around in the mountains, and judging from the prey they caught, they had a very fruitful harvest.

On the surface, it seems that the leaves have good hearing, which increases their chances of spotting prey.

Actually, it was mainly thanks to the system's help. If it weren't for the system's detection function, even with Ye Zi's excellent hearing, she wouldn't have been able to find so many prey.

However, the existence of the system was too shocking to be revealed in the slightest.

So whether it was Huang Jingyu, who was his teammate, or the viewers in the live stream, they all felt that Ye Zi had very strong hearing.

Especially Huang Jingyu. The viewers in the live stream just thought he was strong, but he was the one who experienced it. He clearly didn't hear anything, but Ye Zi drew his bow and shot an arrow.

Moreover, he could hit his prey every time he fired an arrow.

Yellow Whale looked like he'd seen a ghost. If he had that kind of hearing, he wouldn't have spent so much time hunting these past few days while Ye Zi was building his house.

Back at the camp, Ye Zi gutted and prepared the two chickens in no time.

The quickest way is to bake it. I only ate two eggs this morning and wandered around the mountains all morning. I'm starving, so I'll do whatever's fastest.

After eating and drinking their fill, they rested for a while. In the afternoon, the yellow whale stayed behind to process the remaining prey, while Yezi went out hunting alone.

When Yezi returned in the evening, she had an extra pheasant and two rabbits in her hands.

On the tenth day, Huang Jingyu remained behind as usual, while Yezi went out alone.

This time, Ye Zi chose the direction from which the four wolves had come before. The reason was simple: he wanted to get some wolf pelts as bedding before Er Ya arrived.

Marriage was destined to disappoint him; apart from two wild rabbits, he didn't find a single wolf hair.

We went back to camp for lunch and went out again in the afternoon, but the catch was not much, less than yesterday.

To summarize, on the tenth day we only caught two rabbits and two pheasants, enough for two people to last a day.

This made Ye Zi realize a problem: the hunting operations of the past few days had cleared out the pheasants and rabbits within a two-kilometer radius of the camp.

To catch more prey, one must venture further afield.

Ten days have already passed, and Er Ya will arrive tomorrow. If we want to go to more distant places, we can only wait until Er Ya is settled before we can take any action.

After dinner, Yezi chatted with Huang Jingyu and casually mentioned the situation in the neighborhood.

Yellow Whale said:

"We've certainly hunted a lot these past ten days. Other survivors only get one meal a day, and it's uncertain whether they can even get enough to eat. We, on the other hand, eat meat three times a day."

With this hunting rhythm, if there are still prey nearby, there are only two possibilities.

Ye Zi asked in confusion:

Which two?

"One reason is that the animals here are overpopulated, and the other is that we are the chosen ones, and small animals are lining up to rush into our pot."

Unfortunately, it's neither.

"So we need to expand our hunting range," the yellow whale said, staring at the fire.

Ye Zi understood what he was worried about: the larger the activity area, the higher the probability of encountering bears and moose.

Despite having killed four wolves, Ye Zi could still get hurt if a whole pack came.

While the two were chatting, Er Ya had already arrived at the luxury cruise ship they had both visited.

After having dinner on the cruise ship, Er Ya went to choose her survival gear.

She's been watching Yezi and Huangjingyu's daily life these past few days. Even if she doesn't have time to watch the live stream, she'll make time to watch the recordings.

This way, we can determine what the survival team needs most.

Now she knows that what their three-person team is lacking is fat.

And fish are not the only source of fat for them, besides bears and moose.

So her first survival gear was fishing tackle: a ten-meter fishing line with five hooks.

Aside from this, the rest are clothes and shoes.

The third survivor only has five tool slots available, so they can't be left empty.
