Chapter 7: Everyone was starving. The prey was killed by Wei Wei.

Seeing Zhou Youguan so angry, Niu Xixi stopped and didn't dare to move forward.

Wei Wei didn't need Zhou Youxuan's help to advance into any circle, but he understood what Zhou Youxuan said next: Zhou Youxuan didn't like men and hated being pursued by men.

I said this to him and also to the future suitors.

Wei Wei's face showed no emotion. After Zhou Youguan walked away, he followed him.

Niu Xixi couldn't help but admire Wei Wei's persistence. Even after Zhou You had talked to this point, Wei Wei could still continue to pester him without changing his expression.

Seeing the bird left in the grass, Niu Xixi's eyes rolled and she didn't know what she was thinking.

It had been a long time since Zhang Longtong and Hu Lu came back from fetching water. They looked around and finally waited for the big monkey to come back, but unfortunately he returned empty-handed.

Zhang Longtong looked around and asked, "Where are Brother Zhou and the others?"

"Did we split up to find something to eat? Luckily we didn't walk far. I almost got lost."

Zhang Longtong touched his stomach and asked, "Are there no wild fruits at all?"

The giant monkey took their water and drank a few sips: "I don't dare to pick things in the wild if I don't recognize them. The wild fruits nearby have all been pecked by birds and are inedible."

The others also couldn't find anything to eat and all returned empty-handed.

I thought I could at least encounter some prey in this kind of forest, or at least some wild fruits, but unfortunately there was nothing.

Zhao Guanjun had been waiting there. Seeing that they all came back empty-handed, he shook his head helplessly and said that they were not so hungry that they could even chew grass roots raw.

Wang Chunqin hurriedly explained, "We're mainly worried about getting poisonous food. What if you get poisoned after eating it? We don't dare to bring it back for you to eat."

They have no experience in this area.

"Forget it, let's walk forward a little further and see if we can find some food." Zhao Guanjun said as he was about to get up.

Everyone had just come back and had walked for so long that they only had a few minutes to sit down and rest. But when Zhao Guanjun left, they didn't dare to sit still all the time. When they saw someone stand up, they all stood up one after another.

Zhang Longtong said tentatively: "Brother Zhou and the others haven't come back yet. Didn't they say they would gather here? Let's wait for them."

"Yes, Brother Zhou hasn't come back yet, and so has Wei Wei." Ruan Mengmeng said, pointing to the people in the team.

"And Niu Xixi." Hu Lu said.

She and Niu Xixi are both internet celebrities on a certain platform and they also know each other privately.

Zhao Guanjun seemed to suddenly remember, "Yes, there's Xiao Zhou too, but why did they take so long? Didn't we agree on an hour?"

As he spoke, Niu Xixi came out of the woods. The branches caught on her hair. Niu Xixi complained in a soft voice, but a smug smile was on her face.

When the old ghost saw that he was holding a partridge in his hand, his eyes lit up instantly.

"Stop." The old ghost stopped him and stared at the bird in his hand. "You are quite capable. You can even hit this thing."

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound, and found that Niu Xixi was the only one who had caught prey.

Zhang Longtong trotted over, his expression excited: "Niu Xixi, you actually shot a bird, you are so amazing!"

Chen Nan and others slowly walked over and couldn't help but curl their lips when they saw the bird in his hand, feeling unwilling and envious.

It seemed that none of them found any food, and he was the only one who brought back food. Usually, people like Chen Nan and Lao Gui were sarcastic to him, disdaining this and disliking that about him, but now he finally stood up straight.

Niu Xixi chuckled complacently and shook his shoulders proudly and exaggeratedly: "It's okay, it's not difficult."

But the next second the bird in his hand was snatched away and instantly fell into the hands of the old ghost.

"Hey——" Niu Xixi screamed, "What are you doing?"

Niu Xixi tried to snatch the bird, but Lao Gui threw it to Ahu behind him, and Ahu threw it to Wang Ren. They deliberately threw the bird back and forth, making Niu Xixi run around in circles.

Wang Ren saw the cut on the bird's neck and was too lazy to argue with them, so he threw it back to Lao Gui.

Niu Xixi angrily asked, "What do you mean? You want to rob me? Are you being unreasonable? You are so shameless!"

No one expected that Wang Ren and others would be so arrogant. They were filming a show and the live broadcast room was broadcasting live. If the audience saw it, wouldn’t they be afraid of being scolded and cyber-bullied?

Zhang Longtong couldn't stand it any longer. "If you want to eat, just go get it yourself. Why are you stealing from others? Isn't that too much?"

Although he and Niu Xixi had no connection, and he didn't like his nervous and naughty appearance all the time, this was something Niu Xixi had found with great difficulty. It would have been fine if these people had just robbed it, but they also had to play tricks on him like this. It was simply an insult to his self-esteem.

The old ghost's rogue nature was fully revealed. He said shamelessly: "I just like things that are given to me for free. They smell better when they are given to me by others. What do you have any objection to?"

He took out a dagger and cut open the bird's belly in front of everyone.

Everyone couldn't help but take a few steps back in fear at the old ghost's madness and cruelty.

Wei Wei and Zhou You saw this scene when they came back from their tour. The program staff were holding cameras and filming, and had no intention of stopping it.

But what they didn't know was that when Lao Gui raised the knife to cut open the bird's belly, the live broadcast room was closed by the platform due to the bloody and violent reasons.

Zhou Youguan rushed over to rescue them, blocking Niu Xixi and the others behind him. Seeing the bloody blade in the old ghost's hand, he asked, "What do you want to do?"

Looking at the prey in Lao Gui’s hand, isn’t that the prey that Wei Wei wants to give him?

Niu Xixi, who was standing aside, rolled her eyes guiltily, and dodged away when she saw Wei Wei.

Wei Wei did not expose him, but slowly moved closer to Zhou Youguan.

Zhou Youguan glanced at Wang Ren and the others, "Why are you fighting like this over such a small amount of prey? It's only been a few days, and you're all starving?"

Wang Ren sat on a high place with an arrogant attitude, a half-smile on his face that was full of danger. It was obvious that he was not willing to be ordered around by Zhou Youlan like the others, so he did not respect him.

While they were talking, Niu Xixi wanted to snatch the prey back from Lao Gui, but instead of getting the prey back, someone put a knife to his neck.

Several young stars screamed in fear. How could it get to the point where a knife was put to someone's neck?

Niu Xixi was so frightened that he froze and dared not move. He looked at Zhou Youguan for help, and tears soon filled his eyes. He never thought that the old ghost would dare to do it for real.

Wei Wei stepped forward, and Zhang Longtong quickly grabbed him and asked, "Where are you going?"

The knife in Lao Gui's hand could easily cut open the bird's belly, but what if it got accidentally injured during the scuffle?

Zhang Longtong whispered, "Who knows if this is just some show effect put on by the production team, but it seems a bit out of place. You better stay out of it. Brother Zhou and Teacher Zhao are here, so they probably won't dare to do anything."

Zhao Guanjun watched for a long time and was about to speak to ease the situation, but Zhou Youlan grabbed Lao Gui's wrist first and said, "You'd better think it over carefully. If you hurt someone, you will be held legally responsible."

Lao Gui is a martial artist, so it is not ideal to directly snatch the knife from his hand, so he can only clamp his wrist first.

During the argument, Niu Xixi found a gap and quickly dodged, Lao Gui twisted his arms, and although Zhou Youguan didn't have any practical skills, he had the brute force from regular fitness and weightlifting.

The old ghost was gradually finding it difficult, but he couldn't afford to lose in front of so many eyes. Looking at the knife in his hand, his eyes were filled with viciousness.

But someone was one step faster than him. With a "click" sound of a dislocated joint, the old ghost felt a piercing pain in the wrist bone where he was holding the knife, and it instantly spread throughout his arm.

The hand holding the dagger couldn't help but loosen. Wei Wei took the fallen knife, turned the blade in his palm, and in an instant it reached the old ghost's carotid artery.

When Wei Wei broke the old ghost's little finger, Zhou Youguan quickly let go of his hand. He had already noticed Wei Wei behind him, but he didn't expect Wei Wei to attack suddenly, and so cruelly and neatly.

Wei Wei turned sideways with a calm expression, blocking Zhou Youguan behind him.

Zhou Youlan: “…”

Wang Ren lowered his bent legs, calmed down, and stared at Wei Wei with slightly narrowed eyes.

The action of Wei Wei cutting off his finger and snatching the knife showed that he was an expert in knife handling, and his reaction speed was much faster than Lao Gui's.

"Wow, you dare to catch a knife?"

"Awesome, playing with a knife is like spinning a pen..."

Everyone couldn't help but whisper in shock. In fact, Zhou Youlan, who was closest to Wei Wei, didn't even see Wei Wei's movements clearly. It was like a well-edited martial arts movie, done in one go.

The old ghost covered his broken finger with a painful look on his face, but didn't dare to move.

Wang Ren, who was sitting on a high place, jumped down. Wei Wei tilted the blade. No matter whether the old ghost dodged backwards or to the side, the blade would still cut into his aorta at the fastest speed.

Wang Ren's lips curled up in a sinister smile: "It's just a joke, I hope it won't hurt anyone."

Wei Wei put one hand behind his back and slowly raised his eyes to meet Wang Ren's meaningful and inquiring gaze, his eyes were cold and majestic.

Seeing that he had the upper hand, Niu Xixi hurriedly pretended to be powerful: "Didn't you also put a knife to my neck just now?"

Wang Ren just stared at Wei Wei, "It's just a joke, it's a show, right?"

Wei Wei had no intention of taking the old ghost's life, otherwise, with his usual methods, the old ghost would have died long ago.

"Alright, alright," Zhao Guanjun stood up at this time, "stop arguing, it's just a minor conflict and friction. We're all filming the show, it's not that serious. Next time, let's share peacefully, why fight over it?"

Wang Ren held the old ghost's shoulders and slowly pulled him back.

Wei Wei then withdrew his hand and threw the knife back. Wang Ren took it and looked at Wei Wei with a look of more admiration in his eyes.

The old ghost was obviously still unconvinced and angrily kicked the bird in front of them.

"That's too much."

"What kind of person is this? He thinks it's reasonable to rob people."

"But can I still eat? I'm so hungry."

The big monkey didn't mind, he quickly picked up the prey and said, "Hurry, hurry, before it gets hard, light the fire."

“…”

Chen Nan really didn't believe that Niu Xixi could hit the bird. "Birds live in high places. You can't hit them without some strength and accuracy. How did you do it?"

Niu Xixi didn't have any hunting tools. With his thin arms and legs, it was impossible for him to take it down with his bare hands.

"I..." Niu Xixi looked at Wei Wei, "When did I say I hit it? I, I picked it up, right?"

"Sure enough." Chen Nan snorted coldly, "How else could you possibly catch prey?"

Zhang Longtong envied: "Why can't I pick it up? I want to eat meat too."

Seeing Wei Wei standing nearby, Niu Xixi didn't dare to continue talking to him and ran away in frustration.

The bird was handed over to the big monkey. The big monkey picked up the bird, scratched its neck, and then went to Zhou Youguan and said, "Brother, look."

"This bird died from having its neck slashed. The cut is so smooth, it must have been done with a knife. Niu Xixi is really lucky to have been able to pick up someone else's prey for free."

Zhou Youguan looked at Wei Wei who was sitting far away and said, "It was Wei Wei who beat him."

"What?" The big monkey was surprised. "Wei Wei can actually hit this?"
