The meaning of the words "tooth powder" is obvious from their literal meaning.
Mu Tao was shocked. "You can even make tooth powder?"
"able."
Sang Ning picked up her basket, and Mu Tao quickly came over like a little follower, reaching out to take it and saying, "Let me do it, let me do it," acting like an sycophant.
Sang Ning didn't argue with him. She simply put the basket on his back before picking it up and walking outside, saying as she went, "We can find raw materials in advance."
Are there any on the mountain?
"I don't know, let me look for it."
"oh."
Today, Sang Ning didn't follow yesterday's route; instead, she changed direction.
Mu Tao followed behind her, watching her gather things along the way. Then, they appeared in a bamboo forest, with the sound of flowing water coming from behind the forest.
"There is a water source."
"Um."
Sang Ning looked around the bamboo forest and found some bamboo shoots, but instead of picking them, he led Mu Tao straight into the bamboo forest and gestured for him to be quiet.
Mu Tao did as instructed.
Viewers in the live stream were puzzled by the two's stealthy, almost thieving movements.
What are they doing?
Everyone stared intently at the two of them, and then they saw small animals drinking water and many birds by the stream, which was about a meter wide.
"??? Good heavens, this is a huge gathering of wild animals."
"No, how would Sang Ning know there are wild animals by the stream?"
"I don't know, I've already said that Sang Ning is very strange."
"Maybe it's not bad luck, it's just good luck!"
"I think it's more about luck. The elite contestants in the other live stream haven't found water yet, but it's not their fault. The production team is too ruthless; they actually dumped them in the desert."
"Speaking of those who were sent to the desert, I really feel sorry for them. They had nothing to eat or drink, and some contestants were even forced to drink their own urine."
"Really? Which contestant is it? I'm going to check it out."
"Directions to live stream room 6.78.105...387, there's a surprise waiting for you."
Then, half of the viewers in both live streams suddenly left.
When they returned, it was four hours later. Mu Tao was carrying a carpenter's load, with several pieces of wood of varying thickness on her shoulder and dragging them in her hands, following behind Sang Ning.
As for Sang Ning, his hands were not idle either. He carried a basket full of things on his back, and next to the basket hung two birds whose feet, wings, and beaks were tied with vines.
The basket in his hand was also stuffed full.
audience,"???"
"We just went to visit the other contestants and they've already produced so much?"
"Yes."
"How did you catch those two bird-like things?"
“They weren’t birds, they were pheasants and wild ducks, which Sang Ning caught with a trap.”
"A trap?"
"Yes, if you want to know the details, you can watch the replay tonight after Sang Ning goes to sleep. Her trap made with vines is really amazing, it hits the target every time."
So, the audience who had been away for several hours began to wait until evening to watch the replay.
After returning to the cave with Mu Tao, Sang Ning first made lunch. She hadn't eaten the eggs she had collected yesterday, so she boiled some eggs, made yam and wild vegetable soup, and fried the sea fish that she hadn't finished eating yesterday, which she had lightly salted.
Fortunately, the weather wasn't too hot, so the fish hadn't spoiled.
After finishing her late lunch, she instructed Mu Tao to boil a pot of water to scald the chicken and duck feathers, and then quickly took out the contents of her basket and tidied them up.
Then she took out the thin stone she had picked up, found a rock, and started grinding the stone.
The creaking and groaning sounds were incessant, making one's ears hurt.
Mu Tao squatted down next to her. "What are you doing with the grinding stone?"
"Make stone axes."
Hearing the creaking sound, Sang Ning felt desperate. She said helplessly, "If I had an axe, I wouldn't be here sharpening stones."
The worst part is that you don't even know if you'll succeed after all that effort, which makes it even more frustrating.
Mu Tao remained silent, her expression somewhat strange.
Sang Ning was grinding stones with her head down, so she couldn't see it, but the viewers in the two live stream rooms could.
"Something's up."
"Absolutely, Xiao Taotao's expression is clearly off."
"So, he's about to unleash his ultimate move?"
"What ultimate move? To take down Sang Ning and eliminate her?"
"(⊙o⊙)...It hasn't come to that yet, has it? If Sang Ning is really eliminated, given how he used to eat raw sea creatures, he'll probably starve to death."
"Not necessarily. Don't forget, he's learned from Sang Ning how to make fire by rubbing sticks together, what kinds of fruits and roots are edible, and so on. Even if he eliminates Sang Ning as a competitor, he won't starve to death anytime soon."
"That makes some sense, so, should we eliminate them?"
"I support elimination!"
"I also support elimination!"
"Count me in..."
When the viewers in the live stream heard that Sang Ning was going to be eliminated, most of them got excited, while only a few were not excited and instead felt sorry for her.
As for what exactly was a pity, they didn't know either.
However, Mu Tao disappointed them. Instead of sabotaging Sang Ning's elimination, he shared some news.
“I know who has the laser axe.”
Sang Ning, "...Laser axe?"
I've only ever heard of lightsabers, laser guns, and laser cannons, what the heck is a laser axe?
But that's not the point. The point is—
Who has the laser axe?
"In my childhood friend's hand."
Mu Tao said seriously, "Thirty-seven of us signed up, but only four were selected. My four childhood friends received a laser axe, an appraisal device, a medical kit, and a seasoning gift pack, respectively."
Sang Ning's eyes lit up instantly. "Do you know where they're dropping them?"
"I only know that there is a spot where the laser axe is deployed; I don't know anything else."
Can we team up?
"Yes, shall we go find him?"
"Can you go and bring him back? I'll cook you something delicious."
Mu Tao's gaze fell on the tied-up chickens and ducks, and an uncontrollable look of craving appeared on his face. He swallowed hard. "Make them?"
The finger pointed to pheasants and wild ducks.
Sang Ning nodded, and Mu Tao's eyes lit up immediately. "Deal, I'll go find him."
Sang Ning nodded in agreement, and seeing him running out excitedly, she thought for a moment and asked, "Um, how's your sense of direction? Will you be able to find your way back?"
She didn't want this laborer who had offered himself up to her to be lost after just one trip.
If the price of teaming up with a laser axe player is that the laborer won't come back, she'd rather have the laborer.
"Yes, don't worry, I have a very good sense of direction."
Sang Ning said "Oh," and then said, "Then hurry back."
"Okay!"
Before she finished speaking, Mu Tao dashed off like a wild horse.
In the blink of an eye, it disappeared from her sight.
After watching him leave, Sang Ning turned her gaze back to continue sharpening her stone axe.
She only stopped sharpening the stone axe and killed the chickens and ducks and scalded them with boiling water after the water in the pot made of memory metal boiled.
Chicken and duck blood are not wasted; just add some salt, put them in bamboo tubes, and let them solidify.
