Variety Show Live: I Take Celebrities to Survive in the Wilderness

Li Yinsheng transmigrates from Earth to a similar yet different Blue Star. At the start, he participates in a desert island survival variety show as an ordinary person, and then a system activates....

Chapter 11 Yam Beans and Bananas

"Is this a latrine? Fatty, did you build this?" After arriving at the grove, Liu Yifei saw a tripod that was properly covered up. She realized what it was and her face lit up with surprise.

Having been on the island for so long, Liu Yifei had long needed to urinate, but unfortunately, the island was surrounded by drones and cameras, so she had no way to relieve herself. The sudden appearance of a place where she could take care of this important matter naturally surprised and delighted Liu Yifei.

"Yeah, how about that? Aren't I amazing?" The chubby girl puffed out her chest proudly, as if she had done something incredibly important.

"That's great, I love you so much." Liu Yifei cupped the chubby girl's face and kissed her, then hurriedly ran to the outhouse to take care of her important life event.

Wow! The fairy kissed the chubby girl.

"I want one too."

When Liu Yifei came out of the restroom, she saw the chubby girl chopping down a tree with an axe, so effortlessly and casually. She chopped down a tree the size of a bowl in just seven or eight strokes, and Liu Yifei was immediately stunned.

"This... seems very simple and easy." Liu Yifei was eager to try, and she also wanted to lend a hand.

"Yes, it's very simple, you just have to use some force. I just tried it, I chopped at it with an axe more than thirty times, it took a lot of effort to knock down a tree," Zhao Liying said seriously.

Liu Yifei was somewhat skeptical. She picked up the axe and swung it at the spot where the fat girl had just chopped down the tree.

"Bang!"

The tree trunk only had a shallow cut, but Liu Yifei's hand was almost numb from the impact.

"This..." Liu Yifei looked at the chubby girl with disbelief on her face.

She had just seen the chubby girl chopping down trees so easily and casually, and thought it would be easy and simple. She thought that without a lot of strength, she couldn't do this job.

"Hahaha, Sisi, you think it's like chopping a watermelon? It's that easy." Huang Xiaoming burst into laughter.

Liu Yifei felt a little embarrassed. She looked at the axe in her hand, then at the chubby girl, and couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration.

The chubby girl volunteered to do all the hardest and most tiring work, and she also took good care of her and Yingbao. How could she not admire her?

“I really can’t do this tree-cutting work, so what can I do?” Liu Yifei asked unwillingly.

"You and Yingbao can remove the branches from the cut trees, and if you have the strength, drag them to the shelter for Teacher Li and the others to use in building a shelter," the chubby girl said, pointing to the cut trees.

“Okay, Yingbao and I will come.” Liu Yifei nodded seriously. Compared to cutting down trees, these jobs were relatively simple and easy.

With the help of Zhao Liying and Liu Yifei, Huang Xiaoming and Pangniu took turns cutting down trees, which made the process much faster. When it was around five o'clock in the afternoon, the four of them sat on a tree stump to rest and drink water. Li Yinsheng heard Huang Xiaoming and Zhao Liying's stomachs growling with hunger.

I ate snake meat for lunch today to replenish my protein, but that little bit of snake meat wasn't enough to fill me up, and I didn't eat any staple food either. I also did a lot of heavy work in the afternoon, so it's understandable that I was hungry.

"That's enough for today. My body hasn't adapted to such strenuous work yet. Tomorrow I'll have back pain and be too tired to work, which will further delay the construction of the shelter."

At today's pace, another hour or two of felling trees tomorrow morning would be enough to build a shelter.

"Since it's still dark and we have some time, let's go find something to eat and treat ourselves." Li Yinsheng knew that going too far was not good enough. Their bodies had already reached their limits, and forcing themselves to continue working would harm their health and be counterproductive.

"Okay, I'll listen to Fatty." Huang Xiaoming also felt the soreness in his arms and had reached his limit, so he nodded.

"Shall we go to the beach to find something to eat?" Zhao Liying breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that the day was over.

Not only Zhao Liying breathed a sigh of relief, but Liu Yifei also breathed a huge sigh of relief and was rubbing her arm on the side.

She didn't seem to do as much work as the leader and the fat girl, but she and Xixi carried a lot of wood and were busy running around. She was just as tired, and she was afraid she wouldn't be able to keep going if they continued.

"How about this? Sisi and Yingbao, you two go to the beach and see if you can find anything to eat."

"The leader and I will explore the area around our shelter to see if we can find any wild fruits or vegetables to eat," Li Yinsheng instructed.

"Okay, let's do it this way." No one had any objections to Li Yinsheng's arrangement.

After greeting Li Xiang and Zhang Yixing, who were setting up the shelter, the four of them split into two groups to search for food.

Li Yinsheng led Huang Xiaoming to explore the area around the shelter. She walked in front, holding a Swiss Army knife, while Huang Xiaoming followed behind her with an axe, chopping down weeds and branches as they went.

As Li Yinsheng walked ahead, she suddenly noticed a few small, yellowish-brown objects on the ground. They looked somewhat familiar, so she quickly picked them up and examined them closely for a while.

"Fatty, what's this? Can you eat it?" Huang Xiaoming also picked up a long, grayish-brown, fruit-like object and asked Li Yinsheng.

“It’s edible. These are yam beans, which are the fruits of yams. Look around and pick them all up.” Li Yinsheng carefully examined them for a while, comparing them with his basic knowledge of herbs before confirming what he was holding.

"So, this place has yams now." Huang Xiaoming reacted quickly, a slight smile appearing on his face.

Yam can be used as a staple food and is very filling. Finding a piece of it could greatly extend their survival time on the deserted island.

They looked around and saw many yam beans scattered among the bushes and grass. The two immediately got to work, picking them up while observing their surroundings to see if they could find anything else.

Soon, they found a patch of yam vines. The vines twined around the branches, and the green leaves shimmered with life in the sunlight.

"Shall we dig now?" Huang Xiaoming's face lit up with a hint of joy when he found a patch of yams, with about twenty yam vines.

"Let's leave it here for now and remember the location. If we can't find anything else to eat another day, we can come back and dig for yams." Li Yinsheng shook her head and continued walking forward.

Before they had walked for two minutes, Huang Xiaoming behind them exclaimed with delight, "Fatty, look to the left, there's a bunch of bananas, and several of them are ripe."

As Huang Xiaoming spoke, he quickly ran to the left and disappeared from Li Yinsheng's sight in the blink of an eye.

Li Yinsheng was stunned for a moment, then quickly followed. When she arrived at Huang Xiaoming's location, she indeed saw a bunch of banana trees. The banana leaves were broad and emerald green, and several bunches of fruit hung from the leaves, some of which had already turned an enticing golden yellow, as if they could emit a sweet fragrance at any moment.

This bunch of bananas probably weighs about 20 pounds.
