Jian Tiantian told the other guests about Jiang Ning and the other two going to the safe house. Ling Bo and the others had just come out of the tent, and were all shocked when they heard Jian Tiantian's words.
Especially Huo Ziheng, after hearing Jian Tiantian's words, he even sneered.
How could such a coincidence happen?
They had just agreed last night to go to the safe house today, and this morning Jiang Ning was already dismantling the tent. What else could this be but eavesdropping on their conversation?
Ling Bo and the others didn't think too much about it. Like Jian Tiantian, they all saw the strong wilderness survival ability that Jiang Ning had demonstrated in the past few days. Ling Bo said, "That mysterious guest must have come from the safe house. He knows the way. Since everyone is going to the safe house, why don't we follow them? This way, we won't be afraid of getting lost."
Huo Ziheng and Mu Mingxuan were somewhat disdainful of this, but they did not dare to fully guarantee that they could understand the map prepared by the program team, so they acquiesced to Ling Bo's suggestion.
Everyone quickly washed up and started packing up.
Because of the tight schedule, several guests did not have time to go to the beach for breakfast.
Jiang Ning packed her things as quickly as ever, but Nong Chun was slower.
She was not in a hurry. While waiting for Nong Chun, she found some small green bamboos, which could be used as hiking poles or as weapons.
Qi Xingzhou had the least stuff. He weighed Jiang Ning's backpack, then lifted his own, and then decisively put Jiang Ning's backpack on himself.
The audience in front of the screen were full of praise for his thoughtfulness, and even the Qi family members who were watching the live broadcast were surprised by Qi Xingzhou's proactive and thoughtful action.
Ji Shuang took a tissue and wiped the tears from her eyes, and said to Qi Jingshan: "After meeting Jiang Ning, Zhou Zhou has become more and more sensible."
Qi Jingshan looked at the screen and nodded seriously.
Although she heard Jian Tiantian's words and saw that several other guests were packing their things, Jiang Ning only took a glance and then looked away indifferently. She had no intention of waiting for them. After Nong Chun packed his things, the three of them set off with their bags on their backs.
Qi Xingzhou took the initiative to carry Jiang Ning's heavy mountaineering bag on his back and handed his light mountaineering bag to Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning pulled her backpack and said to Qi Xingzhou, "It's okay, I can carry it."
Qi Xingzhou shook his head and refused to let go of Jiang Ning's backpack.
"Okay then, I'll carry you for a while. When you get tired, I'll take over." Jiang Ning compromised.
Qi Xingzhou stared at Jiang Ning with his sparkling eyes and nodded obediently.
Jiang Ning handed him the longest bamboo stick and said, "There are many insects in the mountains, so be careful when walking. You can use it to knock on the thatched grass."
Qi Xingzhou pursed his lips and took it with both hands.
Jiang Ning got three in total, gave them to Qi Xingzhou, and then gave one to Nong Chun.
Nong Chun was also flattered and took it, secretly admiring that Jiang Ning was really thoughtful.
Jiang Ning had the lightest luggage on her back and walked in front holding a small bamboo stick. Qi Xingzhou walked in the middle, and Nong Chun was the last.
Seeing the three people walking into the forest without any reluctance, without even saying hello to them, and without any intention of waiting for them, Mu Mingxuan and others were a little unhappy, but they didn't know what to say. They could only silently speed up their actions, put all the things into the backpack, and then ran into the forest in groups, trying to keep up with Jiang Ning and the others.
Huo Miao was walking at the back and was almost dying of exhaustion.
No one had eaten in the morning, and she felt dizzy before she had walked far.
"Second brother, Brother Mingxuan, please wait for me, I can't take it anymore..." Huo Miao pleaded.
Of course Huo Ziheng and Mu Mingxuan would not abandon her. One of them helped Huo Miao carry her things, and the other supported Huo Miao. The three of them walked at the end of the team.
Viewers who saw this scene commented:
[Huo Miao is such a burden] [She is not destined to be a princess, but suffers from princess syndrome] If it were any other time, Huo Miao’s fans would have jumped out to defend her, but today, it was quiet and nothing happened.
After walking behind him for more than half an hour, Huo Miao couldn't bear it anymore. Her steps became slower and heavier. She cried aggrievedly, "Brother Mingxuan, I'm so hungry."
"Miao Miao, hold on a little longer, maybe there will be food ahead." Mu Mingxuan comforted.
In fact, they were hungry too. They hadn't had breakfast, and they were already starving after carrying such heavy luggage up the mountain.
But there was nothing to eat, so I had to bear it.
Jiang Ning walked in front with steady and powerful steps, but considering the heavy luggage carried by Qi Xingzhou and Nong Chun behind him, Jiang Ning deliberately slowed down his pace.
After walking for more than an hour, Jiang Ning stopped and said, "Let's take a break."
Nong Chun was walking out of breath, and as soon as Jiang Ning finished speaking, he couldn't wait to put his backpack on the ground.
Qi Xingzhou was much better than him, his breathing was even and nothing else could be seen.
Ling Bo and the others who were following behind him looked much worse. They were all sweating profusely, and their steps were unsteady, as if they were holding on to their last breath.
After seeing Jiang Ning and the other two stop, they also stopped and sat on the ground, feeling tired and thirsty.
Nong Chun sat on the ground, looked up and said, "This place seems familiar. Is it close to the place where we fetched water last time?"
Jiang Ning nodded: "Well, just walk a little further and you'll be there."
When the other guests heard the word "water", they immediately pricked up their ears. They had been short of water these days and could only drink a little bit every day. It had been a long time since they had a good drink of water. Now, just hearing the word, liquid could not help but be secreted from their mouths. After seeing Jiang Ning and the other two move, they followed them again.
Everyone stopped again until they reached the stream where they had fetched water last time.
After the shock of the snake last time, Nong Chun was more cautious this time. After putting down his backpack, he knocked on the grass with a small bamboo stick. Only after he felt there was nothing unusual did he squat in front of the stream to fetch water.
But the other guests did not have such concerns. They could not wait to step forward, squat by the stream, scoop up water with both hands, and drink it in big gulps.
Raw water is not clean and may contain other bacteria, but at this time, everyone is dying of thirst and no one cares about these things.
They deliberately ran to the upper reaches of the stream to drink water. Nong Chun, who was originally planning to fill the bamboo tube with water, stood up and prepared to fill it after they finished drinking.
Jiang Ning did not go near the stream, but squatted under a big tree to pick mushrooms. Just now when she put down her backpack, she suddenly noticed this patch of chicken mushrooms out of the corner of her eye.
Chicken mushroom is not poisonous and tastes very fresh and tender.
Jiang Ning hasn't eaten chicken mushrooms for many years.
"Wow! Is that raspberry?" Jian Tiantian's surprised voice suddenly sounded. She stood on the shore and raised her hand to point to the opposite side.
Everyone looked in the direction she pointed and found several short trees with red fruits.
Jian Tiantian couldn't wait to step over it and found that it was actually raspberry!
She was so surprised that she quickly picked a few and put them in her mouth.
Ripe raspberries are sweet, and although they are small, they are edible anyway!
Jian Tiantian's eyes were filled with tears. She didn't even care about the thorns on the branches and picked raspberries quickly.
The other guests were also very hungry and hurried over.
After discovering that they were indeed edible, they all picked the ripe ones.
Huo Miao stood nearby. Her hand injury had not healed yet, so she could not pick up the things. She could only look at Huo Ziheng and Mu Mingxuan pitifully.
"Miao Miao, don't cry. Just stand next to me. This has thorns, I can pick it." Huo Ziheng comforted her while picking it.
Mu Mingxuan also nodded: "Yes. We will pick them. We won't let you go hungry."
In the end, all the raspberries picked by Huo Ziheng and Mu Mingxuan went into Huo Miao's stomach.
If it was before, everyone would definitely say that Huo Ziheng is a good brother who loves his sister, and Mu Mingxuan is also a competent fiancé. However, after Huo Miao and Jiang Ning's identities as the real and fake daughters were exposed, everyone found the way Huo Miao, Mu Mingxuan, and Huo Ziheng get along a little strange.
Logically speaking, Jiang Ning is Huo Ziheng's biological sister, but he ignored his biological sister and had a bad attitude. Then he was very sincere to Huo Miao, the fake sister, and would rather starve himself than let Huo Miao eat first.
As for Mu Mingxuan, Huo Miao had said in a media interview before that she and Mu Mingxuan were childhood sweethearts and were engaged. So, before she was born, the child in Mrs. Huo's belly was actually Jiang Ning! The person who was really engaged to Mu Mingxuan should also be Jiang Ning! Jiang Ning suffered for nearly 20 years outside, and finally found her family, but found that her family still treated the fake daughter who replaced her identity as a treasure. Who wouldn't be disgusted by this? It's no wonder that Jiang Ning was cold to the Huo family. Everyone didn't even dare to think about how much grievance she had experienced and how much disappointment she had accumulated in the past two years before she made the decision to leave the Huo family.
Seeing Huo Ziheng and Mu Mingxuan's attitude towards Huo Miao, the audience tried to put themselves in Jiang Ning's shoes, and then: Fists hardened! If this happened to them, they would definitely hit harder than Jiang Ning!
After picking all the chicken mushrooms, Jiang Ning squatted by the stream to clean them and then put them in a clean bag.
The empty bamboo tubes and bottles were also taken out, washed, and filled with clean fresh water.
After a brief rest, everyone continued to move forward.
Jiang Ning was still walking in the front. She felt that she was very lucky today. When she caught a glimpse of a big rooster foraging under a tree, she put down her backpack, flashed, picked up the bamboo stick in her hand and chopped at the rooster.
The others walking behind didn't react at all, and saw Jiang Ning had already caught the big rooster in his hand.
The big rooster was very strong. It flapped its wings even when Jiang Ning caught it in his hands, and its little mouth kept making cackling sounds.
The raspberries they had just eaten were not filling at all. Huo Miao and the others looked at the chicken in Jiang Ning's hand with green eyes.
