Looking at the people in the rearview mirror, Liu Qing's smile widened.

Before she could even feel happy for long, she saw someone running back ahead! Wait, what's going on?!

Liu Qing slammed on the brakes, looking at the crowd running in the opposite direction without stopping, filled with confusion, but no one stopped to answer her questions. Meanwhile, the number of eliminated players continued to increase on the other side, so what exactly was happening up ahead?!

Liu Qing couldn't help but swallow hard. Could it be?! Are all the contestants on this show crazy?! What could possibly be on this road?! Shouldn't this car be the most dangerous one?!

Before Liu Qing could figure it out, someone's eyes lit up when they saw the car, and they pounded on the door, shouting, "Open the door! Open the door now! There's a bear!"

Liu Qing hurriedly opened the car door to let the group of people in. Looking at the staff dressed as "bears" not far away, her lips twitched involuntarily. What a clever design! Hiking meant becoming the bear's snack; not hiking meant the car might be in danger.

She decided to retract her earlier statement that the production team wasn't abnormal. What kind of weirdos were on this production team? What kind of perverts were they?! They made it impossible for anyone else to survive.

The staff member's bear patted the car briefly, then left shortly after.

Liu Qing inwardly cursed, "Thank goodness it's a fake bear! If it were a real bear, I can't be sure I'd be the only one in this beat-up car. This bear would definitely have knocked it over."

Who designed these test questions?!

Liu Qing kindly reminded the others in the car, "The bear is gone."

The others also looked a little embarrassed. They had just heard someone shout that there was a bear ahead, and those people ran frantically, so they ran after them. They never imagined that it would be this kind of bear.

After relaxing, the physical fatigue brought on by the adrenaline rush came back immediately. Zhou Yifan felt his legs were a little stiff, and he probably wouldn't be able to run anymore. Moreover, this person drove up here and hadn't had any problems for so long, so maybe the car itself was fine and it was a deliberate decoy to make them walk.

If we continue running to the finish line now, we'll be a bit pressed for time, but if we take a car, we'll have plenty of time.

After thinking for a moment, Zhou Yifan asked, "Can I get a ride?"

Liu Qing raised one eyebrow slightly. She really hadn't expected anyone to be able to hitch a ride. Then she turned to look at the other people in the car, and to her surprise, they all wanted a ride.

"Aren't you afraid that if this car breaks down, you'll all be laid off?"

Zhou Yifan fastened his seatbelt, his hands unconsciously gripping the edge of the seat cushion beneath him, but a smile still graced his face. "Being late means elimination anyway, so I might as well take a ride."

Seeing the others trembling and looking like they were about to jump out of the car at any moment, Liu Qing didn't refuse them anymore. "Let's make this clear beforehand, don't jump out of the car, don't be so dramatic. If you want to get out, just say so in advance. Also, I drive rather slowly, so if you can't accept that, you can get out of the car."

Zhou Yifan grinned as Liu Qing's gaze swept over him.

After a moment's hesitation, Liu Qing continued driving.

These people are really shameless! They've already gotten on the bus?!

Haha, that bear was so funny! O(∩_∩)O haha~

[I also found it hilarious. The person at the front saw the staff member dressed as a bear and got so scared that he turned and ran without hesitation. He didn't even notice that the bear wasn't particularly tall. Everyone else was completely terrified by the person in front of them.]

[No way?! This bear head is incredibly realistic! I feel like if the production team hadn't done it on purpose, it could have been made even more lifelike. They probably didn't want to actually scare the contestants; this will likely eliminate a lot of people. The F class is full of experts; they can pull off something like this. Honestly, hiking on the road and suddenly seeing a bear... there's really nothing to say, it just depends on whether it wants to eat you.]

Be careful of bears when you go out! It's very dangerous. Some bears will even knock on doors and pretend to be humans! There are also bears that will stand upright, wearing cow dung as a hat, and mimic waving like humans. It's really dangerous; once it gets close, it'll be eaten.

[I've seen that video too, it's really terrifying. From a distance, it looks so much like a human. And bears are very intelligent. Don't believe the myth that if you play dead, the bear won't eat you; that's all a lie. The truth is, if you encounter one head-on, you're basically done for, and you can start over.]

Wow, that's incredible!

[This is so true! When I traveled to Tibet, all the guesthouse owners told me not to go out at night, to keep the door tightly closed, and not to open it for anyone. At first, I wondered why, but on my last night before leaving, it was terrifying! A bear really knocked on the door! I was still half asleep and thought it was the guesthouse owner, so I yelled at him, but the knocking stopped immediately. The owner of another room came out and said not to open the door, it was a bear. A little while later, I saw a bear climbing over the wall, trying to get in. I couldn't sleep all night; I was too scared to sleep. If the owner hadn't had some kind of "truth," the bear probably would have actually climbed over the wall.]

【Terrifying! (ΩДΩ) Is Tibet really that dangerous?! I just booked a flight to go there?!】

"It's alright, I didn't encounter any when I went. Staying in the city center shouldn't be a problem. Just don't go back too late at night. The hotel owner mentioned that sometimes bears wander into the city at night, but not many."

【Um Σ(⊙▽⊙"a Stroll?! That's such an obscure word. Isn't this for looking for food?! How can you call it strolling?!】

[There was a bear cub on one of the roads we drove to. It shouldn't be too dangerous, right? People were even feeding it. It looked quite cute, and it even arched its arms when it was standing. (Image.JPG)]

【This isn't dangerous?! Didn't you see how fierce its eyes were?! It's staring at you the whole time!】

I really feel that if you encounter something like this, you should never get out of the car or open the window. It's extremely dangerous. Remember that wildlife park where you could drive in, and people got out of their cars? It's really dangerous. I think it's best to stay away from wild animals.

Bears are indeed very dangerous, and they smell terrible. They have no weaknesses; they can climb trees, swim, and are faster than humans in both long-distance and short-distance running. If you can outrun a bear, it only proves one thing: firstly, it's definitely not because you're particularly strong, and secondly, it's not because the bear isn't strong; it's simply that it's not hungry right now.

Good heavens, this is truly bizarre literature! Why would it chase someone if it wasn't hungry?!

This brings us to a characteristic of bears: they can sometimes be truly cruel and inhumane, not for food. Does that make you tremble with fear?

[You know what, there's actually a bit of that.]
