Wang Yao was dumbfounded when he saw the tent disappear into the distance. He had spent the whole day in the forest without finding any fresh water or anything of value. He was already in a bad mood because of all the people cursing him in the live stream. Now that he saw the tent was gone, he was even more devastated, and his facial expression became somewhat distorted.
He looked like he might do something drastic at any moment.
But he didn't want to quit the competition. Since he had already participated, he had to grit his teeth and keep going. If he quit now, he would be finished. All the persona he had worked so hard to build would be gone. He still owed millions in gambling debts. He had to continue and he had to win first place. There was no turning back.
He wouldn't let Yang Xiaoxiao hold him back, and coldly looked at Yang Xiaoxiao, saying, "Do you remember our agreement? We agreed to stick to it until the end, how can you give up so easily?"
After he finished speaking, he threw what he was holding on the ground and walked into the sea. He could swim and would try to retrieve the tent.
This action was very dangerous, but Yang Xiaoxiao did not dissuade her. A terrible thought popped into her mind: it would be better if Wang Yao just died like this.
To outsiders, what she just said sounded romantic, but only Yang Xiaoxiao knew how terrifying it was. Wang Yao had used such words to threaten her more than once. Wang Yao was a man, and she could throw caution to the wind, but she couldn't.
Yang Xiaoxiao and Wang Yao met by chance at a bar. In fact, she could tell at a glance that Wang Yao was a playboy, but what did it matter? A queen of the sea and a king of the sea might create some surprises when they meet. At the time, she was indeed deceived by Wang Yao's appearance and never thought that he would be such a disgusting person.
After getting drunk, Wang Yao took her to a hotel. Wang Yao was young and good in bed, so Yang Xiaoxiao didn't feel like she had been taken advantage of. After all, these things were consensual. But this bastard Wang Yao actually drugged her in the water after she got drunk.
While she was unconscious, she recorded everything that happened on the bed. At first, she didn't know about it. Last month, Wang Yao suddenly contacted her.
However, she didn't suffer any loss and made another appointment with Wang Yao. She installed a camera in the hotel shower room beforehand and filmed everything clearly, even the fine hairs on Wang Yao's face.
At least this way they can keep each other in check. If things go wrong, they might both lose. Wang Yao initially just wanted to get money from her, but he was caught off guard by her move. He can do other things, but getting money from her is impossible.
Later, Wang Yao came to discuss the wilderness survival project with her again, and threatened her with the video, saying that he owed a lot of gambling debts and that if she didn't find a way to participate with him and win the prize money, he would put the video on various websites.
She used every trick in the book—coercion, bribery, and more—and thinking it would benefit her, she finally agreed to participate in the show.
Yang Xiaoxiao knew that she couldn't handle such a high-profile show; one wrong move and she would either become famous or infamous. She was already being heavily criticized as soon as she entered the show. However, she felt much better now. With Wang Yao, that idiot, standing next to her, the situation improved very quickly.
Wang Yao jumped into the sea and swam towards the tent, but the tent was already far away and there was no way he could get it back.
Finally, he swam back soaked to the bone. When he saw Yang Xiaoxiao still sitting there, he picked out the sweetest fruits he had painstakingly collected and ate most of them, which made him angry.
"It's all your fault. If you hadn't packed up the tent in time, this wouldn't have happened."
Yang Xiaoxiao put the last ripe fruit into her mouth and rolled her eyes at Wang Yao: "What's it to me! Didn't you say you'd do whatever you wanted?"
In an argument, Wang Yao was no match for Yang Xiaoxiao, and since he couldn't do anything to her during the live broadcast, he could only choose to tolerate it.
"Since we can't sleep well at night, let's not sleep at all. Let's build a shelter overnight, somewhere far from the sea, so that it won't all be swept away by the sea again."
Wang Yao put a green fruit in his mouth; it was a little sweet and sour, but mostly a bitter taste spread through his mouth.
It's only the first day and someone has already made such a huge mess. This combination made the old man shake his head, but it was also heavily ridiculed by netizens.
Various memes of Wang Yao have been circulating in the comments section, completely destroying his sunny, cheerful, and adorable puppy-like persona.
Luo Zeng and Liu Nannan have also found the water source, a small stream, but it's enough. The two of them also explored the area and found no animal droppings or footprints, so it's safe.
There were two trees nearby, and they planned to use them as footholds to build a shelter, which would save a lot of time. However, it was already late, so the two of them ate some wild fruit, lit a fire, and decided not to do anything else. They would take turns resting at night.
The stream the twin sisters found was relatively large and had a gentle current. It was more than a meter wide, but quite shallow. Worryingly, there were animal footprints near the stream, but the two sisters still planned to build a shelter there.
For Yan Shuangwu, the presence of animal tracks meant easy access to food. After observing the area, Yan Shuangwen planned to build a shelter in the tree. While the wild animals roaming here posed no threat to Yan Shuangwu, it was a different story for her. Even if there was no threat during the day, what if the wild animals attacked at night?
The tree is the safest place. With Yan Shuangwu, who is even more agile than a gorilla, setting it up won't be too difficult. It just needs to take some time, estimated to be about a week.
Yan Shuangwu was collecting firewood and rattan, while Yan Shuangwen was weaving a hanging net. Before the shelter was built, they needed to find a way to rest in the trees, so they had to make two hammocks, each at least three or four meters above the ground, to ensure sufficient safety.
The shelters for Yu Qiang and Yu Tian have been set up. Unexpectedly, the two of them have even moved into single rooms. On the cliff, two simple triangular shelters have been built, but they do not seem to be very sturdy. They are all connected by vines and can be shaken by hand.
However, for them who had no wilderness survival experience, this was already the best they could do, and they were very satisfied with their results. At least they didn't have to spend the night outside, which made them feel very safe.
However, the viewers in the live stream didn't give them any face.
"Isn't this too rudimentary? At least build yourself a door."
"I was wondering if it would fly away if a strong wind blew."
"This looks like a child's game. Can you try a little harder?"
"Actually, this is already very good. It's quite good that we were able to collect so much suitable timber. Let's not be so harsh."
At this point, the free-range chickens from Yu Qiang and Yu Tian had already begun to smell of decay. In this environment, meat could not be preserved for long. The two looked at the free-range chickens with great regret, and finally, with a heavy heart, threw them off the cliff.
