Time flew by, and evening soon arrived.
Of the thirty-odd teams from Daxu Culture participating in the 'Three Days and Three Nights Wilderness Survival' event, more than half were eliminated.
Only thirteen teams remain to continue.
In other words, more than half of them failed to even get through the shelter stage and missed out on the final grand prize.
But this can't be blamed on the production team's demanding nature.
As night fell, just like the day before, heavy rain began to fall on the island.
Without shelter from the wind and rain, the survival team would have to spend the night in the pouring rain.
Don't be fooled by the pleasant weather and comfortable temperatures on the island during the day. If you get soaked in the rain at night, you'll definitely feel very cold, and you might even suffer from hypothermia.
At that point, forget about winning awards; even safety will be a problem.
Therefore, the production team's decision was perfectly correct; eliminating the teams that failed to build proper shelters was also for everyone's safety.
As for the remaining thirteen teams, although everyone had shelters, ensuring that the team members had a place to avoid the wind and rain.
However, there is a significant difference between good and bad shelters.
For example, the only 'luxury' level shelter among all the teams is, of course, the one that our CEO Xu built himself.
It is not only beautifully structured, but also spacious.
Of course, the most basic requirement of shelter from the wind and rain goes without saying.
Outside, the wind and rain raged, but inside the shelter, it was dry and comfortable, with not a drop of rain leaking in.
Furthermore, the windows of the three reserved windows were now lowered to ensure that no wind could blow in.
At this moment, Dilraba, Boss Yang, Liu Yifei, and her cousin Yang Mi, these four big star girls, were all sitting lazily in the rest area of the shelter, chatting idly.
Although it was nighttime, the shelter was not completely dark inside.
In fact.
In one corner inside the shelter, there was something that resembled a fireplace but wasn't one.
The firewood inside was burning, bringing a warm light to the shelter, and the firelight felt very comfortable on people.
This small kitchen was, of course, built by the free labor of Feng Xiaoxia and his team.
As the saying goes, once you've eaten, you have to get to work!
However, the structural design of the small stove came from our General Manager Xu, and the location was also planned by him.
Feng Xiaoxia and his companions had no complaints whatsoever.
Because they also planned to build an identical kitchen for their own shelter after they returned.
It not only provides warmth to the team members in the shelter, but also serves as a source of light, making it quite perfect.
Of course, this is the most luxurious shelter among the remaining thirteen squads, combining perfect structure with spaciousness.
For the other teams, the shelter could only be considered a 'shelter,' barely enough to keep the survivors from getting wet in the rain.
As for comfort, it's completely inadequate.
After all, not everyone has the leisure time to do what our CEO Xu did, not only setting up a rest area in the shelter but also creating items like stools and chairs.
Especially apart from Feng Xiaoxia's team, who were lucky enough to get a strong ally, most of the other survival teams barely ate anything tonight.
Having gone hungry all day, and now confined to a makeshift shelter, it's easy to imagine how depressed they must have felt.
If it weren't for the thought that staying up one more night would earn an extra 10,000 yuan in bonus, everyone would probably have given up long ago.
at the same time.
The eliminated team members were also watching the remaining teams' live stream.
And it was only at this point that they realized it.
It turns out that not all the remaining squads were struggling to stay afloat as they had imagined.
Because, in Xu's team, there was no sign of them 'struggling to hold on' at all.
It was all done with ease and effortlessness.
Living in such a spacious and comfortable shelter and enjoying this seafood feast doesn't feel like a survival exercise; it feels more like a well-prepared camping trip.
For example, Dilraba, a girl in the same team, also expressed a similar sentiment, saying:
"Xu Lu, isn't our survival challenge a bit too easy? This is way too unchallenging!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Lu raised his eyelids and said:
"Oh, you think it's not challenging enough? That's too easy. Try to survive by yourself for a day tomorrow, and then we'll see if it's challenging enough."
"I'm not going to try to survive alone. If I can't even find food, I'll just give up!"
Dilraba wasn't stupid; she immediately rejected the suggestion.
Xu Lu said irritably:
"Then why do you say it's easy? It has to be difficult at the same time, isn't that a contradiction!"
"Pshaw! I was just saying, you actually took it seriously!"
Dilraba rolled her eyes and didn't respond at all.
Yang Mi, the younger cousin standing nearby, covered her mouth and chuckled as she watched the two bickering.
Mr. Yang, Reba's boss, smiled and casually said:
"Xu Lu, Reba actually makes a good point. Look, none of us have been able to help much today, and we're getting a bit bored. Why don't you arrange something for us to do tomorrow?"
"Yes, Mr. Xu, besides looking for water today, all we did was eat, eat, eat. Seeing how hard the other survival teams are struggling, I'm starting to feel a little embarrassed!"
Liu Yifei nodded in agreement.
Seeing this, Reba immediately said with a smug look:
"Look, look, Xu Lu, everyone agrees with what I said. What else do you have to say now?"
Xu Lu completely ignored Dilraba's smugness, thought for a moment, and said:
"Since everyone is asking for this, I'll assign you some tasks."
"Therefore, you will be responsible for gathering food tomorrow. Eat as much as you find; if you can't find any, everyone will go hungry."
"ah?"
Upon hearing this, Reba immediately exclaimed in surprise, saying:
"Xu Lu, isn't this a bit too difficult? So many teams couldn't find any food today, how are we supposed to find any? We're not like you, we can't go into the water to catch fish..."
Are you stupid?
Xu Lu flicked Dilraba on the forehead before saying:
"You can't go into the water to catch fish, but does catching fish necessarily mean going into the water and catching them with your bare hands?"
Isn't what makes humans the most intelligent of all beings precisely because they know how to use tools?
"Brother Xu, you mean you want us to build a tool to catch fish?"
My younger cousin, Yang Mi, who was listening nearby, suddenly lit up and asked a question.
"That's right!"
Xu Lu snapped his fingers, then tapped a few times on his phone, before showing the screen to a few girls and saying:
"Perfect timing! I've also found the fishing tools for you. Make one based on these tomorrow."
Then put some bait in it, throw this thing onto the shore, and wait a while for the fish to bite.
Upon hearing this, several celebrities immediately crowded around, grabbed the phone, and began to study it with great interest.
It seems that the girls are quite interested in this ancient fishing tool called a 'fish basket'.
