The two dared not go far, so they looked around for any harvest. When they returned to the camp, they found that Feng Lingjing had dragged back several relatively thick tree trunks, about 1.5 meters tall.
Feng Lingjing waved to them and saw the dead wood and green plants they were carrying: "You went to find something? Come on, help dig a hole, and we'll drive these four things into the ground later."
The two girls quickly found a place to put down what they were carrying and helped dig the hole. It sounds simple, but by the time the three of them had actually erected the four tree trunks, they were all panting heavily.
Yan Zheli looked at the main beams and asked, "Aren't they too short?"
Feng Lingjing said helplessly, "I didn't see any medium-sized ones, and the big ones are too big to chop or lift. Sitting and sleeping are fine, as long as I don't stand up."
After finishing with the four main beams, Feng Lingjing rested for a while before setting off to find thinner branches of suitable size. He planned to have Ye Chu and the others tie them together with rope to form a grid-like frame to serve as a roof. Ye Chu and Yan Zheli could only look at each other in bewilderment as they stared at the four main beams.
"Oh my god, it feels like we can't help at all!" Yan Zheli wailed, looking to Ye Chu for help. None of them wanted to be gossiped about after the show aired, so they had to do something.
Ye Chu thought for a moment and said, "Zhe Li, I remember we passed by a few dwarf banana trees before. Why don't you pick a few leaves and bring them back? We can use them to build a roof or store things."
Yan Zheli's eyes lit up, she nodded and set off full of fighting spirit, while Ye Chu stayed behind to build a small pile of dry branches that she had found into the shape of a campfire, and then gathered some dry leaves from nearby to stuff in.
After finishing all this, Ye Chu picked up the wild vegetables she had gathered from the other side and went to the river to wash them. The river water was crystal clear, and Ye Chu couldn't help but praise it to the camera.
As night fell, Yong Tongfang and Zhang Chihao, who had gone off to explore, finally returned. They hadn't encountered anything edible along the way, and only brought back three or four wild sweet potatoes that they had dug up along the way.
Ye Chu and the others had already set up the simple rest shed. Yong Tongfang was quite satisfied with it and helped start a fire. Everyone used the small iron pot provided by the production team to cook wild vegetable soup, and then roasted two sweet potatoes to barely fill their stomachs.
We thought that once the small shed was set up, everyone would be able to get a good rest tonight. However, the problem in the wild was that there were just too many wild mosquitoes. No one slept well all night, and we were constantly woken up by mosquito bites. In the latter half of the night, we were itchy all over.
"Oh my god, my neck!" Yan Zheli touched the numerous bumps on her neck, unable to imagine how badly she had been stung. The others weren't doing much better either. Ye Chu looked at the several steamed buns in her hand and sighed.
Yong Tongfang woke up the earliest, but he was already out of sight. The group asked the program crew and found out that he and Zhang Chihao had passed by a natural lake yesterday. Yong Tongfang guessed that there might be fish in it, so he got up early and sharpened some branches to go to the lake.
"Will everything be alright? Is the lake very deep?" Yan Zheli was a little worried, but fortunately the production team said they had surveyed the area beforehand and the lake wasn't deep, which put everyone at ease.
The remaining four played rock-paper-scissors. Yan Zheli stayed behind, while Ye Chu and the other two went along the beach outside the island to see if they could find any resources.
The survival reality show was filmed over a period of fourteen days, and Ye Chu and his group truly spent fourteen days on the deserted island. At the beginning, because everyone was not familiar with each other and their skills were unfamiliar, they often didn't know where their next meal would come from. Once, they even went three days without eating or drinking water, and everyone looked pale and hungry.
Fortunately, there's always a way out. Just when everyone thought they were about to faint, they discovered pheasants on the island. The five starving people worked together to hunt the pheasants and finally got a meal.
Gradually, as time went by, their skills became more and more proficient, and life improved somewhat; at least they had something to eat every day. Yong Tongfang was a very capable leader, and everyone trusted him and even gave him a nickname, calling him "Brother Fang."
Ye Chu and Yan Zheli, the two weakest members of the group, had become adept at climbing slopes and trees after fourteen days of training. After saying their final goodbyes, the filming of the program officially ended. Ye Chu was safely picked up by her assistant at the airport and got into the car.
In the car, the assistant handed the phone to the other party, looking at her artist's increasingly thin face with some heartache, and hurriedly contacted Changji to inform her of the situation.
Holding her long-unseen phone, Ye Chu felt a sense of disorientation, as if she had been transported to another world.
She thought for a while before remembering her lock screen password. After unlocking her phone, she first sent a message to Changji and Guyu saying that everything was okay. Changji quickly replied that it was okay, but Guyu did not respond for a long time.
Upon seeing this, Ye Chu immediately logged onto Weibo to search for Gu Yu's latest news. She quickly learned from fans' leaks that Gu Yu was busy filming a new movie and probably couldn't reply to messages right now.
So Ye Chu checked the trending topics again and immediately saw Escape 2, which was ranked fifth. While she was filming the variety show, Escape 2 had already been officially broadcast, and its popularity did not decrease at all as time went on; on the contrary, it continued to rise.
Looking back at her Weibo, Ye Chu posted a new one with a grin.
Ye Chuchu Chuchu V: I'm back! Did you miss me?
"Ahhh, baby, are you finally done with your survival challenge?! Mommy missed you so much." Ye Chu wasn't surprised that her fans knew she was filming a survival reality show, since the official team would definitely promote it beforehand.
“Baby, in the days you’re not here, Mommy can only rely on Escape 2 to save her life. But last night when it aired and you were seriously injured, Mommy just cried.”
"I cried +1. The blood was gushing out, it scared me half to death."
"My dear, you've just come back from your ordeal and your digestive system needs time to adjust. During this period, please avoid eating rich, fatty foods and stick to a light diet."
"I saw in the official propaganda that it's a deserted island. Honey, are you alright? Are you hurt?"
Ye Chu replied to a few comments with a smile, then took a nap in the car in a pleasant mood. When she woke up, she had arrived home. As she opened the door with her heavy suitcase, the aroma of food wafted out, making her stomach immediately rumble.
The little tangerine sniffed at her feet, circled around a few times, and then started flapping its paws, grabbing at her trouser leg as if trying to climb up. Ye Chu was completely charmed by it and immediately bent down to pick it up before dragging her suitcase into the living room.
The food on the table was light, but it still smelled delicious. Changji took the tangerine from her arms and gave her a disdainful look: "Go wash your hands."
"Okay." Ye Chu replied obediently, washed her hands, and quickly returned to the dining table to begin her hearty meal.
Leaving aside Gu Yu, Chang Ji's culinary skills were ranked first in Ye Chu's mind, on par with Ye Xiao's.
