In fact, it turns out that it’s not that they are afraid that they can’t pick the fruits, but that they really can’t pick them at all!
Following the guidance of the locals, they spent some time looking for insect repellent plants. When they arrived at the place where they grew, they found that these plants were actually growing on cliffs. The cliffs were very steep and high, and most importantly, very slippery. Because the tropical jungle had recently received plenty of rain, the cliffs were covered with moss and some fungi. In such a situation, it was difficult to walk even on a flat surface, let alone a cliff. It was impossible to keep a steady figure.
"Generally speaking, if we want to pick these herbs, we basically let domestic monkeys pick them. Only monkeys can climb up such a cliff smoothly, so I didn't suggest you pick these plants at the beginning." The local said truthfully.
"So what should we do? Can we climb up? Or should we just give up and go back? We can try to speed up."
The current situation is really very embarrassing. Emperor Gu couldn't control his mind for a moment. It would be best if their team could get the insect repellent plants. However, according to the current situation, it seems that it is not so easy. No, it should be said that it is quite difficult. Even the locals who are very familiar with this tropical jungle are extremely sure that they can't climb up.
"No, maybe we can give it a try. The moss on the cliff won't help us, but there are vines on the side that we can use for support." Joel walked forward to observe and stretched out his hand to pull hard to confirm the toughness of the vines. "We can use them for support, but it's best if the person climbing up is relatively light. If they are too heavy, I'm afraid the vines won't be able to withstand the force."
There are only three people who are lighter in weight, and they can be seen at a glance: Xiao Yangyang, who is younger and has a smaller frame, and two ladies, Queen Lin and Yu Yu.
Because he was a boy, little Yang Yang subconsciously wanted to step forward, but just as he took a step forward, Yu Yu pulled him back, "Let me do it. In terms of weight, I'm lighter than you, and my movements are more flexible, so I'm obviously more suitable."
Joel had no objection to Yu Yu's decision. It was just a matter of climbing a cliff. In his opinion, it was not dangerous at all. Besides, he was watching from below, so it was very safe. He just wondered if he could use the force to climb up.
Just as the fish was about to go up, Justin, who had been watching, suddenly spoke up and said, "Wait."
"What's wrong? Justin."
"I have an idea. Although we can't touch it from above, we can still touch it from below. It's too tiring to use vines all the time. Why not make a few footholds below to make it easier for the little fish to climb up."
As he spoke, Justin paced two steps in front of the cliff, holding the short blade he had chosen in the morning. He considered the position, and suddenly jumped up with force, firmly inserting the short blade into a crack in the rock somewhere on the cliff.
Suddenly, the others realized what Justin meant, and they all stepped forward. They couldn't use the big knives, shovels, axes, etc., but they could still use Xiao Yangyang's loyalty knife and Lin Yinghou's short blade. Joel's movements were also very agile. He directly lifted up Xiao Yangyang and asked him to insert the medium-long knife to a higher position. But it would be better to stack another one on top to build another foothold, because it takes three people to stack them. If they are all big men, it will be difficult to support them physically. Thinking of this, Lin Yinghou, who was a little scared, actually raised her hand to express her willingness to be the person to build the third foothold.
Joel was at the bottom, Bo Tianwang was in the middle, and Lin Yinghou was at the top. Although it took some time and failed once, Lin Yinghou finally established the third foothold firmly. The rest depended on Yu Yu.
I have to say that with those three footholds, the path up the cliff seemed to be connected all of a sudden. Although Yu Yu was strong, her body was actually very light. The moment she determined the path, she moved quickly. With the help of vines and the newly established footholds, Yu Yu quickly climbed most of the cliff. Especially the last one, Yu Yu used the force to jump up a long way, but there was still a small distance left, at least two or three meters, but there was no foothold at all above.
If your body is hanging in the air like this, supported only by the vines, it will be easy to lose your sense of security and feel fear.
But Yu Yu was very calm, so calm that even she herself felt a little calm. After all, if it were her previous self, she might have been panicking by now. Her calmness quickly allowed Yu Yu to find the entry point. There were actually bumps and depressions in the cracks between the cliffs. Although they were not very obvious and the bumps and depressions were very shallow, they could still be used as leverage. It's just that the nearest bump and depression to her was still a little distance away.
After thinking about it, Yu Yu simply held the vine tightly with both hands, and pushed hard with his feet. The whole person swung in the air as if he was floating for a thousand years. Because the distance was not enough, Yu Yu even used the force to increase the swing amplitude. The people under the cliff were terrified, fearing that Yu Yu would lose his grip or the vine would break and he would be thrown away and fall down.
But fortunately, the next moment, after Yu Yu approached the landing point, he suddenly stretched out his left foot and hooked it, locking the concave and convex position, stopping his body properly. He adjusted the most comfortable posture and stabilized the center of gravity before doing the same thing again, approaching the target plant above little by little.
About half an hour later, Yu Yu actually picked all the plants there. Moreover, he took some time to climb a little higher and picked all the insect repellent plants nearby. He also leisurely picked a fruit growing on the cliff before coming down from the cliff.
The whole process, except for some delays in the beginning, was very smooth without any lag. The local who was following the team was stunned. He had a dazed look on his face and obviously had no idea what was going on. After a long time, he stammered and asked what was going on. It was more agile than a monkey in the mountains, like a monster.
But after being amazed, the local felt even more puzzled, because no matter whether it was the artists in front or the camera crew and staff following behind, they all just looked happy, and did not shout excitedly like him, as if only locals like him were making a fuss!
"Aren't you surprised? That girl's movements were incredibly beautiful, more agile than a monkey. It doesn't seem like something a human could do at all!?"
The local's words really stumped the people and made them suddenly realize the truth.
Yes, why wouldn't they be surprised? In the first season, when they saw Yu Yu's actions, they were still screaming and shouting. Well... it must be because Yu Yu is too perverted, so they are used to it and think this is the most normal thing.
Yes, since the start of this live survival show, it seems that there is nothing that Yu Yu cannot do, and in this second season, there are more "supermen" like this, such as Yu Yu's brother Joel and Justin. With such "supermen" here, what is there to be afraid of?
It has to be said that this remark by the locals caused many viewers on the live broadcast platform to burst into laughter, saying that if there were no "contrast" with ordinary people, they would not have known that they had "evolved", and there was even more laughter and playfulness on the barrage.
Indeed, if you pay close attention to the comments, you will find that the audience on the live broadcast platform rarely made a fuss about the fish's behavior in the scene just now. At most, they just said to be careful. The rest of them were basically all expressing their disapproval of the fish's "greed".
They clearly remembered that in the first season, Yu Yu was extremely "greedy" and broke off all the coconuts on the coconut tree, forcing Bo Tianwang to "pretend to have a broken leg" to avoid disaster!
Those who were shouting things like, "Oh my god, how did they do something so dangerous?!" or "Oh my god, this is so exciting, is this guy an extreme athlete?!" were definitely new viewers who had never watched the show "Desert Island Survival."
With the insect repellent plants, everyone's actions are indeed much easier, and Yu Yu has picked enough. It seems that we don't have to pick this kind of plant for at least several days.
Don't be afraid of getting dirty or looking ugly. Just crush the insect repellent plant and apply it on your neck, wrists, and calves, especially the calves, which you should pay special attention to.
Of course, the smell of this insect repellent plant is not very pleasant, it is a bit strong, but when the members think about the fact that there are no mosquitoes to bother them, their mood can't help but become much better. Such a little smell is nothing. After all, after surviving for such a week, everyone's body smell is probably not very good, so what does a little smell of green plants matter?
Moreover, the fruit that Yu Yu picked was certified by the locals as a wild fruit. It is sweet and sour and can quench thirst. Many locals also like to pick it and eat it.
After taking in the sweet and sour wild fruits, one feels more relaxed and instantly feels more energetic.
So, soon, after re-determining the satellite coordinates of the red safety point, the entire team packed up and set off again. This time, the speed of travel was obviously much faster than before. In order to hurry, the entire team did not stop, let alone hunting or eating. They planned to hunt after reaching the red dot safety point, and everyone rushed straight to the target point.
But around two or three in the afternoon, some unavoidable sequelae continued to emerge, forcing the survival team to stop again.
