Chapter 203: Living is More Important

Chu Qiao frowned, the feeling of discomfort becoming more and more obvious as he went deeper into the jungle.

Chu Qiao was overwhelmed by this feeling of shame and her usual rationality was overwhelmed. She looked left and right, shaking her head from time to time.

"What is Master Chu looking for?"

"I've already seen a persimmon, why hasn't Mr. Chu picked it yet?"

Chu Qiao glanced at the screen and said awkwardly, "I still want to solve the problem of clothes first, and then look for food and water."

This was Chu Qiao's first adventure outside. He did not look for water or food, but for shelter first.

She was barefoot, stepping on the ground and branches from time to time. There were ants on her feet and small insects crawling up her thighs.

Chu Qiao grabbed it casually, and a black caterpillar appeared in front of the camera.

Chu Qiao handed it to Xiao Diao, who turned his head away in disgust.

Chu Qiao waved the bug in front of Xiao Diao's eyes: "Hurry up, don't be so pretentious, this is your food for the next two days."

Xiao Diao reluctantly held the caterpillar in his mouth, swallowed it in one gulp without even biting it, and then exaggeratedly opened his mouth and retched twice after eating it.

"Xiao Diao, your performance is so realistic."

"Mr. Chu always gives me a feeling of delicious food, but Xiao Diao is still the real one."

"Mr. Chu's acting skills are worthy of an Oscar."

Fans saw in the live broadcast room that Chu Qiao seemed calm, but she was actually walking with great difficulty. She had lost her clothes and shoes. In the wilderness, her movement efficiency and speed were reduced by half, and she was often scratched by various thorny plants.

In less than half an hour, many blisters appeared on the soles of my feet.

Chu Qiao searched for a long time but couldn't find a plant suitable for making a skirt. She picked a large banana leaf, barely covered her body, and carefully examined the scratches on her legs.

Ordinary scratches are nothing, as long as they are not fatal insect bites.

Time was slipping away little by little. Chu Qiao had already wasted half a day without any gain.

Xiao Diao stuck out his tongue and panted.

Chu Qiao looked at Xiao Diao's tongue that was about to smoke, and regained her senses. Between being naked and surviving, survival was more important. She decided to follow the usual practice and go find food and water first.

Chu Qiao returned to the persimmon tree, squeezed his feet together, put one hand on the branch, shook it hard, and after making sure it was stable, he used the force to pull it up, and his whole body jumped up a bit.

The persimmon tree has many branches, and using the same method, Chu Qiao quickly reached the middle of the trunk.

Most of the persimmons have rotted, and some even fall off the branches at the slightest touch, hitting the ground, mixing with the soil and turning into mud.

Chu Qiao turned over and moved to a higher place. The fruits deeper in the branches received less light, so they grew relatively slower than those below.

Chu Qiao didn't have any tools, so he simply and roughly wrapped the persimmons with decorated leaves, but they fell off easily, so he couldn't take many at a time.

Without tools, everything was extremely difficult.

While thinking, Chu Qiao was twisting his body like a monkey. In less than two minutes, he had descended to five meters from the ground. Chu Qiao jumped and landed steadily on his feet.

She spoke to the drone, "It's hard to take it off without tools. I need to make a rope first."

As she spoke, she stuffed the bitter persimmon into her mouth and walked deeper.

There were constantly protruding stones and thorny plants on the ground, which pricked his feet. Chu Qiao shook his feet from time to time to get rid of the broken stones that had stuck between his fingers.

Seeing this, Xiao Diao ran forward and used his claws and head to move the sharp stones on the ground.

Netizens' Madonna hearts emerged:

"Who just said Xiao Diao is useless?"

"Xiao Diao is so considerate."

"Mr. Chu's little ones have all become hot packs."

"No, Xiaoyan can't. Xiaoyan is a devil."

Chu Qiao looked at the barrage of comments and smiled. There was a "crunch" sound under his feet, and Chu Qiao jumped forward to avoid spraining his ankle.

Looking back, I saw a ten-centimeter-thick tree trunk lying across the ground.

The corner of Chu Qiao's mouth twitched. It seemed that his luck at the beginning was not too bad.

"Xiao Diao, don't go any further, I found it."

She picked up a stone from the side and broke it in two.

"There are no knives in the wild, so I'll make a crude stone knife for now. When I find food, I'll process it into a stone axe at night."

As he spoke, Chu Qiao quickly sharpened one of the pieces into a blade.

She squatted down and slashed the stone knife vertically from one end of the tree trunk to the other.

Chu Qiao said, "This is a bark peeling tree, also known as Melaleuca alternifolia. You may not have heard of Melaleuca alternifolia, but you have all heard of tea tree essential oil. Tea tree oil is an aromatic oil extracted from the branches and leaves of Melaleuca alternifolia."

"The bark and leaves of Melaleuca alternifolia have a calming effect and are not toxic, but they are still a strong pharmacological stimulant and are not suitable for long-term inhalation."

"The tree next to me just fell down recently. Its bark is still wet. I can use it to make a rope."

As Chu Qiao spoke, he used a stone to peel off the bark from the trunk bit by bit along the gaps between the flowers.

Xiao Diao held onto the tree trunk with two melon seeds, helping Chu Qiao keep the trunk stable and prevent it from rolling.

When the entire bark is peeled off, it becomes a strip 3 meters long and about 30 centimeters wide.

Chu Qiao spread out the bark and pressed down the four corners with stones. The stones were used to cut the bark into strips of uneven thickness along the longitudinal direction. The thickest ones were about one centimeter wide, while the thinnest ones were only one or two millimeters.

"Master Chu, your cooking skills are not very good."

"Chuqiao bold and unrestrained school."

Chu Qiao picked up one of the thinner strips of bark and braided it like a pigtail. As he did so, he shook his head, "I did it on purpose. Different places require ropes of different thicknesses. The rope we'll use to string the persimmons will need to be thinner, and if we're tying things, it'll need to be thicker."

After more than ten minutes, more than a dozen ropes of uneven thickness were ready. Chu Qiao wrapped them around his arms. Suddenly, one arm looked like it was wrapped by a snake, green and ferocious.

Chu Qiao was starving at this time, and didn't care whether he was ugly or not. He trotted back to the persimmon tree.

Chu Qiao climbed up the tree with great difficulty, with the drone following her head. As she climbed, she looked at the light curtain, fearing that the drone would be unreliable and expose her underwear.

But after repeated attempts, the drone was obviously more reliable than she had imagined. No matter whether Chu Qiao jumped or climbed, the drone always followed her head steadily, and the image was accurately fixed above her shoulder.

Chu Qiao climbed up to the treetop again and threaded the half-ripe persimmons she had picked onto the rope.

This kind of wild persimmon is very small, with a diameter of three or four centimeters. Chu Qiao strung more than 20 persimmons together, tied a knot at the joint, hung it around his neck, and climbed down.

Xiao Diao was under the tree, staring at Chu Qiao, afraid that she would fall.
