It was completely dark by then.
Su Jin finally found the protein she had been longing for.
grasshopper.
She carefully controlled the pressure of her fingers, afraid of causing the filling to burst.
Ye Shuwei stared in disbelief at the grasshopper, which was as big as her hand, and then hid to the side.
"Lin Shi, is the stick finished?"
Lin Shi handed the two wooden sticks to Su Jin, but she still hesitated.
"Are we really going to eat this? That's too raw!"
Su Jin removed the grasshopper's legs, antennae, and wings, and then threaded them onto the wild skewers they had made.
The grasshopper was still alive, wriggling its body, but it couldn't escape once it was fixed to the stick.
"Eating a bug isn't such a big deal. Many regions eat this kind of bug, and it's very delicious when roasted."
He then put the string of grasshoppers on the fire to roast.
"But wild animals might have parasites. I've already treated it, so don't worry, it's not dead."
Ji Yuanzhou swallowed hard; he hadn't eaten lunch or dinner either, and he was hungry.
Su Jin glanced at him and said, "If you're hungry, you can go out and look for some yourself. Maybe there'll be some left."
Ji Yuanzhou turned his head away and muttered disdainfully, "Who cares?"
Not wanting to pay attention to him, Su Jin looked at Shen Yanxiu and kindly reminded him, "It's best to supplement your protein intake, otherwise you won't have the energy tomorrow."
"Thank you, I'm fine, Ajin."
Shen Yanxiu was secretly pleased; this must be a sign of concern.
They understand the logic, but these kids are basically children who have never left the city. They probably wouldn't even be able to make a living in the countryside, let alone in a jungle like this.
Su Jin is now suspecting that the production team might be planning to kill someone? Does the director have a grudge against these people?
[Su Jin is so stingy. It wouldn't hurt to share her things with everyone; would she lose a piece of her flesh?]
"You're so kind, why don't you go? Don't you want to?"
Why didn't Su Jin find more? A few insects aren't enough to feed anyone.
[Do you think they're gods? They climbed mountains for hours, then went to chop wood and start a fire. Try doing that yourself! You'd be lying on the ground by now.]
The air is filled with the smell of protein, so it's probably almost done baking.
Five grasshoppers were thus freshly baked and looked delicious.
"You eat three, I'll eat two. I didn't do anything."
Lin Shi volunteered to be a decorative accessory.
Su Jin took a bite, and it was tree tree-like.
"It's a pity there aren't many seasonings; it would be even more fragrant if there were barbecue seasonings."
"You're on vacation?"
Su Jin was really hungry. She ate three insects in a few bites and handed the rest to Lin Shi.
Looking at the two grasshoppers, which were almost as big as her palm, Lin Shi began to have second thoughts.
"Let me mentally prepare myself first. I've never eaten anything like this before. What does it taste like?"
"It tastes like insects."
"......"
Lin Shi closed her eyes and, in one swift motion, stuffed it into her mouth.
"vomit......"
Su Jin wasn't lying to her; it really did taste like authentic insects.
Meng Guangjun, who had gone out to hunt, returned with several small fruits of strange colors.
"Sorry, I didn't bring anything back."
Since it was already dark, he walked around the campsite.
Luo Feifei comforted her, "It's alright, Teacher Meng, thank you for your hard work."
He very politely picked up the fruit, and was about to eat it.
"Don't eat yet."
Su Jin picked up the bunch of fruit; they were black and looked like miniature grapes, and they didn't look like good fruit at all.
Ji Yuanzhou grew impatient. "What are you trying to do now? Everyone's hungry. You've already eaten, and you still want to shamelessly come and take more food?"
"I'm not going to fight you for it, I just want to say that this might be poisonous."
Ji Yuanzhou mocked her mercilessly, "Hahaha, it's poisonous too? Are you going to tell us not to eat it and give it all to you next?"
He looked like he saw right through her little scheme, picked a bunch of fruit, and stuffed it into his mouth.
Luo Feifei frowned and disagreed, saying, "Su Jin, I'm practically your senior. I know you have some basic outdoor knowledge, but Teacher Meng went to great lengths to find this. You shouldn't show off your little bit of knowledge and deny his hard work."
[Waaaaah, Feifei is so kind! I thank you on behalf of Lao Meng.]
[I've long been fed up with Su Jin, that scheming bitch; Sister Luo is practically my mouth-switch!]
Honestly, how can someone be so possessive of other people's things when they're always ordering others around?
Su Jin froze in mid-air, "Huh? Me?"
Luo Feifei maintained her serious expression, as if Su Jin had committed some heinous crime, and she was standing on the moral high ground, judging Su Jin.
However, a barely perceptible smile appeared at the corner of her mouth. Even without watching the live stream, Luo Feifei knew that the audience's goodwill towards her must be skyrocketing.
Su Jin laughed in exasperation, "Fine, fine, you guys eat, enjoy your meal."
After saying that, she didn't care whether they lived or died, and pulled Lin Shi into their tent.
Ye Shuwei hesitated before walking over and pulling open their tent.
The tent was suddenly opened, startling Su Jin. "What are you doing? Please have some self-respect. I have a family."
Ye Shuwei was uneasy, still feeling lingering fear from Su Jin's words, "What about the snake you just mentioned? Will it bite me in the middle of the night?"
Su Jin said in a serious tone, "I am not a professional snake breeder. Based on my experience, I know that snakes generally do not bite people on their own initiative. They usually run away as soon as they see a person, so there is no need to panic when you encounter a snake. If you want to catch it, you can slowly approach it from behind and stroke it. If the snake senses that you have no ill intentions, it will not bite you. But if you are bitten, then just pretend I didn't say anything. After all, I said from the beginning that I am not a professional."
"......"
Ji Yuanzhou grabbed a bunch of fruit and stuffed it into his mouth, saying disdainfully, "Why are you asking her? If you ask me, there are no snakes at all; it's just that someone wants to show off."
Su Jin didn't care about him at all. After all, if you care too much about what others think, you'll become someone else's underwear.
Pull the tents back up. Each tent also has a video camera, but you can cover it with your clothes to protect your privacy.
Lin Shihu asked her, "You said that fruit is poisonous, and they still ate it? Won't they die? Are we supposed to collect their corpses?"
Outside the tent, the atmosphere was a bit tense after what had just happened.
Meng Guangjun chuckled and said, "Everyone, continue. Let's eat and then go to sleep. We're all tired."
Since Su Jin just said it was poisonous, Luo Feifei didn't dare to eat it. But she had already made that boast, so if she didn't eat it now, wouldn't that be a blatant slap in the face?
She could only force herself to eat a few skewers of fruit, which didn't taste very good.
I thought to myself, what a bluff, it really was just a hoax.
