Chapter 11



The accommodation and supply packages for the four levels are very different. Everyone in each group is eager to try, and everyone is jealous of the first prize.

Tong Wenping, who had been so low-key and modest all the way, could no longer sit still. He quietly pulled Jiang Meng aside and said, "Be more proactive in answering questions later."

Jiang Meng hesitated and said, "Do we have to rob people even if we don't know how to do it?"

Tong Wenping panted and glanced at her, as if he didn't know why Jiang Meng would ask such a stupid question.

"Will you lose points or get your flesh cut if you answer wrong? If you don't know the answer, why don't you just guess?"

Jiang Meng mumbled for a long time before slowly replying, "Oh, I see."

At this time, Pei Haotian and Shan Yanli's group were also full of fighting spirit.

Shan Yanli tilted her head towards Pei Haotian, a smile sweeter than honey on her face: "Brother Pei, don't worry, my hands are very fast, just leave the answers to me."

Pei Haotian glanced at Jing Ye, who was in high spirits and seemed to be trying to provoke him, and then turned his gaze to Bai Yinyin and Shao Yi, who were in a harmonious atmosphere and having a good conversation.

Pei Haotian clenched his fists.

Even if it's not for the prize, he must win this game!

Shao Yi and Bai Yinyin are the only relatively calm group among the four groups. It would be best if they could get good prizes, but it doesn't matter if they can't. At most, the conditions will be a little difficult. Neither of them is a spoiled person.

Bai Yinyin was worried that her previous suggestion of living in a cabin would put pressure on Shao Yi, so she whispered to him, "Let's just do our best and don't put too much pressure on ourselves."

Shao Yi smiled and said, "Miss Bai thinks too highly of me. My abilities are limited and I just want to make ends meet. It's hard to put pressure on myself."

Bai Yinyin breathed a sigh of relief.

Then the two of them smiled at each other in tacit understanding.

Ming Fu saw that Pei Haotian opposite him was about to have a seizure again due to anger.

She suddenly became alert. Shao Yi seemed to have replaced Jing Ye as the one who provoked Pei Haotian.

She hoped that Pei Haotian would not do anything despicable. She would keep a close eye on Pei Haotian at all times. At the same time, she would try her best to ensure Jing Ye's safety and would not let the innocent Shao Yi suffer any harm because of her intervention.

Ming Fu was thinking when Jing Ye suddenly pinched her face and pulled it away, asking lazily, "Why are you frowning? Are you feeling unwell? Or are you worried about me, your brother?"

Ming Fu opened his clear eyes, looked at Jing Ye seriously and said, "I was wondering... if you can't answer, how can I help you save face?"

Jing Ye sneered, "Why are you still like when you were little, crouching through the crack of the door to watch your brother? Don't you know how strong I am? How could I not be able to answer you?"

As a result, he was stumped by the first question.

Chief Director: "Let's not have a Q&A for the first question. Let's start with an interactive warm-up. We all know that when surviving in the wild, there are many situations where you need to tie ropes. From small things like bundling collected firewood for easy transportation to big things like building shelters and setting traps, efficient and strong rope tying methods are particularly important. Okay, now let's take a quick look at five simple rope tying methods."

"Now our staff will demonstrate for everyone. Please watch carefully. You only have one chance to learn."

As soon as the director finished speaking, a staff member came out with a bundle of ropes and stood in the center of the venue.

There are dozens of ways to tie a rope. Today I will briefly teach you five commonly used knots. The first is the "Hand Knot," known as the "King of Knots." It has a wide range of uses, not just in outdoor sports. I hope you will learn it carefully and find it useful in your daily life.

“The second type, the joining knot, can join two ropes together and is often used in scenarios where the rope is not long enough;

"The third type is the firewood knot, also known as the wood-tying knot. As the name suggests, it is used to tie firewood.

"The fourth type is the belt knot. This knot works well when you have limited materials available, such as belts, cloth, knitted fabrics, and other smooth-surfaced materials.

"The fifth type, the lasso, can help you set traps and catch prey."

At this point, the director, eager to survive, picked up the speaker and added, "Just to be clear, our show doesn't allow the use of wild game. If you catch prey using traps, you can exchange it with the show crew for an equivalent amount of food."

The staff introduced the knots and demonstrated five tying methods to everyone.

He explained in great detail, speaking at a steady pace, but when he looked up after he finished, everyone was stunned.

Wow, it really is a “shallow learning” thing.

Shan Yanli was the first to raise her hand and acted coquettishly with the director: "Director, how can we learn it just by watching it? Can you show it to me again?"

The director is a veteran in this business, so how could he let Shan Yanli off the hook just because she was acting coquettishly?

He ruthlessly refused, "It is precisely because of the difficulty that there is a challenge."

Tong Wenping nudged Jiang Meng from behind. Jiang Meng frowned and hesitated for a moment before finally speaking: "But director, you've given us such a high level of difficulty, we can't handle it."

Tong Wenping then said, "Jiang Meng is just an ordinary housewife. She has never been exposed to knots. Director, you should also consider her situation."

Chief Director: "Only one person in a group needs to know the answer to count towards the score, and people in the group can discuss with each other."

Hearing this, Tong Wenping shut his mouth and turned around to give Jiang Meng a sidelong glance.

Chief Director: "Since everyone thinks tying knots is difficult, why don't we add some excitement to stimulate everyone's fighting spirit."

He looked around at the four groups of guests with exciting expressions and cleared his throat. "Ahem, the first person to tie a knot gets 5 points, the second gets 4 points, and so on. Please cherish your opportunity and don't let others tie the simple knot."

The director's words immediately changed the mood of all the guests and ignited their fighting spirit.

I originally wanted to keep asking the director to give in and teach them a few more times.

Now everyone rushed over to grab the rope, grabbing the few memories left in their minds and retracing the staff's techniques and actions.

Jing Ye didn't even have time to say a word to Ming Fu. He saw Pei Haotian move, then rushed out and grabbed the rope first.

The audience enjoyed the show very much.

[Hahahaha, Director Guo is really good at playing, he can really control everyone's emotions]

[You are worthy of being Director Guo, and you are worthy of your title of devil]

[Fuck, don’t they know Director Guo’s style? Hahahahahaha]

Director Guo is best at bluffing and intimidating the guests. I'm betting my living expenses for this month on it. If Director Guo sees that everyone hasn't learned it, he'll ask someone to teach them again until they do.

[Guo's os: Variety show newcomers who are naive to the ways of the world are so funny hehehehehe]

"Director Guo, I advise you to think carefully. Do you really want to treat Jing Ye like this? Do you enjoy playing tricks on our Linkwe captain? I'm telling you, it really does! He's so naive, he hasn't learned anything at all. The way he's busying himself makes me burst out laughing."

Jing Ye was indeed busy doing nothing. Not only was he busy doing nothing, he was also secretly copying homework. It was a pity that his classmates were just as clueless as he was.

Everyone was busy, and no one knew what they were doing. One minute passed, then three minutes passed, and in the blink of an eye, ten minutes had passed, and not a single thing was tied.

The director was drinking tea leisurely with the script of the program on his lap.

Ming Fu was also feeling comfortable, but at this time she was being targeted by the navy hired by Du Yibai.

The navy's momentum was like a swarm of locusts, rushing over in a black mass.

What's going on with Jing Ye's little sister? Everyone's busy completing their mission, but she's the only one sitting there like a spoiled brat, not moving.

Where did this little princess come from? If you want to be a princess, go home and be one. She's showing off her princess syndrome on TV. Is she sick? She's so annoying!

[I really can't understand why Jing Ye has to bring a burden with him. All the other guests are standing, but she is sitting. Why? Who does she think she is?]

[I really didn’t dare to say it before, Jing Ye’s sister is like a blood-sucking leech clinging to Jing Ye, it’s disgusting that she can’t get rid of it]

[I agree. He was filming the show alone and it was fine, but the burden had to follow him. He must be crazy about fame.]

The harmonious tone of the show suddenly changed, catching the normal audience off guard.

[What's going on? Why are there so many strange people coming in?]

[I came in to watch the show. Can anyone tell me why someone suddenly started cursing?]

I'm speechless. My sister isn't feeling well, and Jing Ye felt sorry for her and asked her to sit down. What's it got to do with you? How can you criticize her for that?

[They're a family that loves and cares for each other. What's your business? Are some people who don't talk too much just because they're not mean?]

The navy’s attack power is not to be underestimated, and they immediately fought back.

[Hahaha, can't I just call this a loser? How Jing Yeai feels bad for his sister is his business. I have no right to control it and I don't want to. I just can't stand seeing losers come out and embarrass themselves.]

[Since you dare to appear on TV, you should show some professionalism. Jing Ye may spoil her, but I won’t.]

[I strongly agree with the previous part. She was half-hearted on the show and needed others to take care of her in everything. How hypocritical.]

Honestly, I really can't stand it anymore. Does poor health mean everything is okay? What kind of physical activity is tying knots? Is it exhausting enough to kill her? Why can't she use her brain and help her brother?

I was speechless watching this. I only saw the brother caring about his sister, but I didn’t see the sister being considerate to her brother.

[Asking her to be considerate of her brother requires her to have the ability to do so. However, the truth is cruel. She is just a useless person who can’t help at all.]

Ming Fu didn't know that she was being targeted online, but coincidentally, when the internet trolls attacked her for standing by and not helping, she stood up.

She walked to Jing Ye with her hands behind her back, leaned forward slightly and looked at what Jing Ye was doing with his hands.

What he saw was a mess in Jing Ye's hands.

"Brother, do you want me to help you?"

The others looked over when they heard the sound.

Jing Ye was still struggling with the rope, his brows furrowed tightly, and his tone was quite impatient: "Stop messing with me, I almost remembered it, don't disrupt my train of thought."

Looking at the increasingly tangled ball of rope in Jing Ye's hand, Ming Fu also frowned. Her stupid brother was probably short of not just a little, but billions of points.

Ming Fu stood beside Jing Ye and waited quietly for another five minutes, but the rope in Jing Ye's hand still had no knot.

And the sweat on Jing Ye's head was getting more and more.

She sighed and said, "Brother, how about I come?"

"What are you doing here? Be good and find a thin rope to play with." Jing Ye said as he pulled out a thin rope and stuffed it directly into Ming Fu's hand, then waved at her to signal her to go away.

Then Ming Fu became quiet with the thin rope in his hand. He found a corner, lowered his head and started playing with the rope by himself.

Then the navy had another say.

[Holy crap, is she really doing a catfight?!]

[It's said that shamelessness is invincible in the world, but in this situation, she still has the nerve to do this?]

[How old are you? You're still playing cat's cradle. You're tall and strong, but you don't do anything adult-like.]

[She's obviously a teasing and pretentious person. I can't stand people like that. If she stood in front of me, I'd hit her in the face.]

[Hey everyone, can you please stop being so harsh? The little princess might be trying her best to tie the knot :)]

[I'm so fucking laughing! She knows how to tie a knot? Even if a sow can climb a tree, she might not be able to tie a knot. After all, her brain capacity is limited.]

If she could tie a knot, I'd livestream myself digging out shit.

While the internet trolls were arguing fiercely, the person who had been playing with the rope suddenly raised his head, looked around, then looked at the director team and raised one hand.

"Director, I've tied it."

The chief director was almost dozing off waiting, and when Mingfu called him, he was still a little dazed. It took him a second to react, yawning and saying, "Huh? Oh, you've fastened it, Xiao Zhao, go check it. If there's no problem, you'll get 5 points."

When the other guests heard the noise, they just subconsciously looked up at Ming Fu and did not walk over curiously.

They had made a lot of mistakes before, and they tied a knot in a hurry and called Master Xiao Zhao. Then Master Xiao Zhao was fair and selfless, and the inspection results were all unqualified.

They subconsciously thought that the things Mingfu created were the same as theirs.

Pei Haotian found an opportunity to tease Jing Ye, saying with a hint of meaning: "I didn't realize that your sister is working so hard, Jing Ye."

Although the efforts are useless.

Jing Ye replied with a fake smile: "That's not true. My sister Jing Ye is not only hardworking, but also very smart. When my sister gets the points, don't scare you to death."

Pei Haotian knew that Jing Ye was showing off his eloquence, so the more assertive Jing Ye was, the happier he laughed.

"Then I'm really looking forward to it. Congratulations in advance to my sister for getting 5 points."

No matter what the result is, Jing Ye has never lost in terms of momentum and verbal skills.

He said proudly: "If you work hard, you can also get 4 points."

Pei Haotian smiled and didn't continue to argue with Jing Ye. What's the point of being tough? Anyway, it was Jing Ye who would be embarrassed later.

Xiao Zhao quickly walked to Ming Fu and after checking the knot Ming Fu tied, he looked up unexpectedly and stared at Ming Fu in shock for a long time.

Under everyone's gaze, the silent Master Zhao finally spoke.

"Director, you deserve 15 points."

After Xiao Zhao finished speaking, the scene fell silent for a moment.

Director Guo thought he had misheard and asked through the speaker: "What?"

Xiao Zhao repeated, "I've tied all five knots, so I should get 15 points."

Director Guo couldn't believe it. He threw the loudspeaker into the assistant director's arms and rushed to Ming Fu in two steps.

The one who was even faster than Director Guo was Jing Ye, he almost ran over.

After walking in, everyone found that all five knots of Mingfu were tied, including the human knot, the connecting knot, the firewood knot, the belt knot, and the lasso.

In addition, she tied two other knots with the extra rope, a square knot and a slip knot.

Ming Fu gave Jing Ye face, and his face was full of smiles. He glanced at Pei Haotian out of the corner of his eye, and pretended to teach Ming Fu a lesson: "Afu, how can you not be sensible at all? You took all 15 points, and you said you were so greedy that you didn't even leave one point for Brother Haotian. You made Brother Haotian get nothing, so where is your face?"

Pei Haotian: Thank you for remembering me at this time.
