After Jiang Ning built the tent, he sprinkled insect repellent powder all around and burned some mugwort locally to prevent mosquitoes, snakes, ants and the like from crawling into the tent.
Then she started preparing dinner for today.
Jiang Ning is like a walking animal harvester. With her around, there is no shortage of meat.
The dinner for the three of them was equally sumptuous, filled with the aroma of meat.
Nong Chun, feeling that he was not able to help, squatted on the ground and made a fire, feeling extremely guilty.
Huo Miao, who was not far away, smelled the meat in the air and looked forward to it eagerly.
She raised her head and looked straight in the direction of Jiang Ning, with greed in her desire.
Huo Miao didn't understand. Even if she was the one who attracted the monkeys, she and Jiang Ning were not far away. Why did the monkeys beat up Jian Tiantian, Ling Bo and the others, but were blind and didn't beat up Jiang Ning as well?
Seeing the tent set up, a flashlight hanging next to it for lighting, and chicken soup cooking in front of the fire, with roasted rabbit meat on a stick next to it, Huo Miao felt a strong sense of imbalance as they were still clean and fresh after being stranded on the deserted island for so many days, just like Jiang Ning who came for a picnic in autumn.
Her eyes seemed to be poisoned as she looked towards where Jiang Ning was. However, no matter how angry Huo Miao was, there was nothing she could do. The group of monkeys had no effect on Jiang Ning and the other two. Jiang Ning was still living well. Instead, she was aroused by the tempting smell of meat in the air and became hungry.
Huo Miao gritted her teeth secretly, raised her hand and tugged at Huo Ziheng's clothes, and whispered: "Second brother, you are injured so badly, it's ok without medicine, and you are still hungry... Why don't we go find Jiang Ning, you are her dear second brother, you are so seriously injured, she can't just watch you starve to death."
Huo Miao still remembered that during the first half year after Jiang Ning came to the Huo family, she would cook midnight snacks for Huo Ziheng almost every night when he came home late. Even if Huo Ziheng didn't look at her well at all, Jiang Ning still did the same as before.
At the time, Huo Miao was secretly laughing with her other girlfriends at Jiang Ning's way of currying favor with others, saying that her method was so unpresentable and was simply that of a servant.
It was not until later that she discovered that Huo Ziheng's attitude towards Jiang Ning had gradually softened, and an ominous premonition rose in her heart. Then Huo Miao deliberately revealed her anxiety and uneasiness caused by Jiang Ning's presence in front of Huo Ziheng. Later, Huo Ziheng really distanced himself from Jiang Ning and never gave her any good face again.
Huo Miao was a little unconvinced. She had seen how kind Jiang Ning had been to the Huo family before. How could she just let it go now? Huo Ziheng was also hungry, and his back was badly injured. The compressed biscuits and chocolate he had just eaten were of no use to him at all.
Huo Ziheng looked weak and closed his eyes to rest.
After hearing Huo Miao's voice, he opened his eyes and shook his head: "Don't go, Jiang Ning won't give it to you."
Before, he didn't believe that Jiang Ning could be so heartless and cruel, but after being beaten up twice by Jiang Ning, he believed it.
Jiang Ning didn't know what she had been through when she came out of the hospital. She seemed like a different person and no longer regarded them as her own family.
Huo Ziheng's refusal made Huo Miao frown, and her expression looked a little unhappy.
[Yo, yo, yo? How dare she be so shameless? How dare she use Huo Ziheng as an excuse? ] [Huo Miao is really shameless. If it weren't for her, would Huo Ziheng be so miserable? ] [Huo Ziheng is unlucky for having such a troublesome sister] [Pfft, that's just what you think. Huo Ziheng definitely wouldn't think so. Maybe he would be quite happy about it in his heart. Obviously, Huo Miao is not his biological sister, but his attitude towards Huo Miao and his attitude towards Jiang Ning are completely different. There is obviously a chance to correct all this, but the Huo family doesn't want to. So, no matter what happens, he deserves it! ] [However, Huo Ziheng's situation is really bad. The program team said before that although this is virtual reality, when making this scene, it is a one-to-one restoration of reality, and everyone's senses are fully open. Huo Ziheng will not have any accidents, right? ] [What kind of accident can there be? Even if it happens in the program team, it's just like dying and logging off the line in the game. This is not his own body] ...
Huo Ziheng was injured and couldn't move easily.
Mu Mingxuan's injuries were lighter, and after resting for a while, he began to set up the tent.
The group of monkeys just now hated the three people so much that even though the three people held their backpacks tightly, many things were pulled out by the monkeys.
Mu Mingxuan looked at the tattered tent in his hand, then turned to look at Huo Miao who was sitting motionless on the ground, and said, "Miao Miao, come and help me."
If they don't set up the tent, the three of them will have to sleep on the grass tonight.
Huo Miao frowned and went forward to help, and suddenly thought of a question.
Mu Mingxuan and Huo Ziheng's tent was washed away by the sea on the first night they arrived on this deserted island. The tent they were holding was actually hers.
The monkeys snatched away Jian Tiantian's backpack and all her belongings, including the tent they had slept in for the past few days...
So, where should she sleep tonight? Huo Miao grabbed the tent and suddenly froze.
She raised her head and asked Mu Mingxuan: "Brother Mingxuan, Jian Tiantian's things were taken away by those monkeys, and the tent is gone too. Where am I going to sleep tonight?"
Huo Miao felt a little regretful. If she had known earlier that when dismantling the tent this morning, she should not have taken it easy and let Jian Tiantian carry the tent. Instead, she should have tied the tent to her backpack!
Mu Mingxuan was also stunned. He looked at it and then said, "Let's just sleep together tonight."
[Holy crap?!] [Hmm... a little explosive, but acceptable] [Forget about Huo Miao and Mu Mingxuan sleeping together. Huo Ziheng... although Huo Miao has always called him brother, they are not actually related by blood! It always feels a bit weird when adult men and women sleep together...] [There is no other way. There is only one tent for the three of them. The temperature in the mountains is so low and there are many bugs. Sleeping outside in the open air might kill someone... Which is more important, life or reputation?] While the audience was arguing, Huo Miao realized that this might be the best solution at the moment. She nodded silently and set up the tent with Mu Mingxuan.
Everyone was busy. Not only Huo Miao and Mu Mingxuan were preparing for tonight's accommodation, but Yuan Wei, Ling Bo and others were also scattered not far away, setting up their own tents. Only Jian Tiantian, who had lost all her supplies and shelter, looked pitiful.
However, Jian Tiantian was smart this time. After being beaten by the monkeys, she had no supplies or food in her hands. The experience of the past few days has made Jian Tiantian realize that even if she asked for help, no one would really help her, so Jian Tiantian took a gamble and deliberately walked in the direction where the monkeys disappeared when digging wild vegetables. As a result, she not only found some edible wild vegetables, but also found her backpack that had just been robbed by the monkeys! The things in the backpack were scattered all over the ground, and even the backpack with the zipper opened was also discarded by the monkeys.
Maybe the monkeys opened the backpack and found that there was no food inside. They also felt it was in the way, so they threw it on the road in disgust.
Jian Tiantian was very happy and quickly picked up her things.
While picking up things, Jian Tiantian found some things that did not belong to her. They should have belonged to other guests. After all, she was not the only one who had her things robbed by the group of monkeys.
Jian Tiantian was a little tempted and wanted to pick them up together, but this thought only appeared in her mind for a second before she suppressed it.
She took these things that did not belong to her back to the camp. Those people would definitely come to snatch them away. Why bother? Jian Tiantian picked a large handful of wild vegetables nearby. Seeing that it was getting late, she protected the few things in her arms and hurried back.
When Jian Tiantian just got up to pick wild vegetables, Ling Bo and the others noticed it, but they didn't know that Jian Tiantian was going to pick wild vegetables, and they thought her things were stolen, and other thoughts came to their minds.
Seeing that Jian Tiantian not only came back safely but also had something in her arms, Yuan Wei took a closer look and immediately said, "Jian Tiantian, are the things in your arms... the ones that were just taken away by the monkey?"
Jian Tiantian nodded: "Yeah."
"Where did you find it?" Yuan Wei asked immediately. Lin Qi and Mu Mingxuan also stared at Jian Tiantian with sharp eyes, as if waiting for her answer.
"I found it on the road we just came from. It must have been dropped on the road after being robbed by those monkeys. If you have lost anything too, go look for it." Jian Tiantian responded in a somewhat cold manner. She walked to the other side, avoiding the other guests in the previous team, and instead chose a direction closer to Jiang Ning, and put down the things in her arms.
When Yuan Wei and others heard Jian Tiantian say this, they not only did not show any happy expression, but instead looked at Jian Tiantian with a little dissatisfaction.
Since she had just seen the other things, she must have known that those things were snatched away from them by the group of monkeys. Why didn't she pick up their things as well?
Yuan Wei stood up angrily and went with Lin Qi in the direction Jian Tiantian said to look for their things.
Huo Ziheng and Mu Mingxuan also lost things, but Huo Ziheng's current condition did not allow him to make any large movements, so Mu Mingxuan asked Huo Miao to stay and take care of him, while he followed Lin Qi and the others to look for the things that were stolen by the monkey.
If it were in the past, Mu Mingxuan would have simply thrown away these tattered things without even looking at them.
But now, these supplies are equivalent to self-defense amulets. Who would think that their life is too long? The chicken cooked by ginger and lemon can be uncovered. The three of them gathered in front of the fire and ate with great satisfaction.
The depression and discomfort of the other guests did not affect Jiang Ning at all.
As for Qi Xingzhou, there was only Jiang Ning in his eyes, and no one else existed in his eyes except Jiang Ning.
As for Nong Chun... he was almost becoming a freeloader, relying on Jiang Ning for support and living as Jiang Ning's younger brother, so he had no extra sympathy.
Jian Tiantian built her tent and washed the wild vegetables she had just picked by the stream. Then she waited until Jiang Ning and the other two had finished eating, then she slowly walked over, pointed at the pot next to her, and asked Jiang Ning, "Jiang Ning, can I borrow your pot?"
Jian Tiantian spoke very cautiously and looked at Jiang Ning with pleading eyes.
She didn't have a pot. The pots that everyone had been using to cook these days belonged to Lin Qi and Mu Mingxuan. They had just separated, and Jian Tiantian didn't want to borrow one from them.
"This pot is not mine, you can ask him." Jiang Ning pointed at Nong Chun, then stood up to wash the dishes and rinse off at the same time.
Little tail Qi Xingzhou saw Jiang Ning leaving, and immediately followed with his small bowl in hand. His mind and eyes were filled with Jiang Ning's figure, and he didn't even glance at Jian Tiantian.
After the two people left, Jian Tiantian's gaze fell on Nong Chun, with a pleading look on her delicate face.
As someone who can stand out from thousands of girl groups and gain a foothold in the entertainment industry, Jian Tiantian must be pretty.
Even though her experiences over the past few days made her not want to take care of herself, her face and fair complexion were still much better than those of many ordinary girls. She lowered her voice deliberately and said pitifully, "Can you lend me the pot? I'll cook some wild vegetables quickly and return it to you when it's done."
Nong Chun couldn't handle this at all, and his expression was obviously a little hasty.
He looked back at Jiang Ning and Qi Xingzhou several times, and saw that Jiang Ning was already squatting by the stream washing her dishes and didn't want to care about this matter at all. Her expression was as indifferent as usual. Nong Chun nodded: "Okay, you can use it, but I haven't washed this pot yet."
Not only was it not washed, they had just finished eating and there was still a little chicken soup and a few pieces of uneaten chicken left in the pot.
Jian Tiantian pointed at the remaining chicken soup in the pot and asked, "Do you want more?"
"No." Nong Chun shook his head.
Since Jiang Ning and Qi Xingzhou had already gone to wash the dishes, they were obviously full.
Jian Tiantian couldn't wait to speak: "Give it to me, I'll use it to cook wild vegetables."
Nong Chun nodded and took the initiative to put the pot on the fire.
There was not enough chicken soup, so Jian Tiantian added some extra water. After the water boiled, she couldn't wait to put the wild vegetables in.
Vegetables are particularly easy to cook. Jian Tiantian picked so many wild vegetables that her bowl couldn’t hold them all. After thinking for a while, Jian Tiantian gave the small amount of wild vegetables left in the pot to Ling Bo.
Ling Bo was a little surprised, but he didn't refuse.
At this time, who would push the food out?
After Jian Tiantian washed the pot and returned it to Nong Chun, she couldn't wait to take a few bites of her bowl of wild vegetable chicken soup.
When Jian Tiantian tasted the rich chicken flavor, she almost cried for joy.
This meal was the most delicious thing she had eaten in days.
Both of them were eating the food in their mouths with big mouthfuls.
Huo Miao stood outside the tent, her hidden gaze fixed on Jian Tiantian. Seeing that Jian Tiantian and Ling Bo had started eating and didn't even think about sharing a bite with her, Huo Miao's expression hidden in the darkness showed some resentment.
She lifted the curtain, walked into the tent, and complained to Huo Ziheng who was resting inside the tent: "Second brother, I'm so hungry. Jiang Ning just had some leftover chicken soup, and she would rather give it to Jian Tiantian and Ling Bo than to us!"
Huo Ziheng comforted her: "Miao Miao, bear with it for now, I will go out to find you something to eat tomorrow morning."
Huo Miao was delighted: "Are you serious?"
Huo Ziheng, with a pale face, nodded tiredly: "Really."
How about getting Huo Zhazha off this variety show tomorrow?
