Chapter 99: Special Training Ends
In this way, the two exhausted 11-year-old children (fake) slept until dawn the first day. The Wilsons, who saw the surveillance, shook their heads helplessly.
Zhang Wei was still woken up by the heat. She was wrapped too tightly, and the temperature rose when the sun came out.
When I woke up, I was confused for a moment. I looked at Namir who was sleeping on his back next to me. His exposed arms had red bites from mosquitoes or something, but he didn't feel anything at all and was sleeping soundly.
Zhang Wei ignored him and jumped down from the tree trunk with some strength. He still felt a little sore.
She shook her own and Namier's kettles, and found they were both empty. It seemed they would have to boil some water for themselves.
Fortunately, their kettles are made of stainless steel, not thermoses. People abroad rarely use thermoses to drink water because they don't drink hot water at all.
So she decided to go to the river to fetch water and boil it to drink. The river seemed close from their camp, and it was probably about two kilometers if she walked. So she ran as fast as she could, treating it as training.
You know what, running in the wild really feels different. Moreover, Zhang Wei heard the rustling sound of small animals being scared away. It might be a rabbit!
Zhang Wei's eyes lit up. She and rabbits really have a connection!
They also have a lot of experience in catching rabbits, so they are guaranteed to have meat.
So on the second day after arriving here, they finally started a fire, continued to reinforce the roof of their residence, and went to the Gobi Desert to look for cacti and ripe cactus fruits.
And there seemed to be fish in the river, so rich in resources that when Namir described it to Charles on the phone, he was quite excited, and it didn't feel like survival in the wilderness at all.
The first few days were relatively happy. After all, Zhang Wei's tolerance for food had increased a lot after training, and he could eat whatever he got.
But after a week, life in this desolate mountain area became a little difficult.
Because they don't need to look for food or water all the time, they have a lot of free time, which is really boring.
During this period, Zhang Wei taught Namier how to wash clothes by hand, how to make a fire and boil water, and how to roast fish and rabbits.
To be honest, Zhang Wei learned these things when she was in Chenjia Village. Before that, she knew nothing about them. She didn't expect that they would come in handy now.
A few days passed like this, and Namier and Zhang Wei had climbed up and down almost all the trees here.
Her tree-climbing skills were almost as good as her rock-climbing skills, and her speed was even faster than Namir's. This made Namir, who had always been better than her in training, a little dissatisfied, and he kept pulling her into the competition.
Moreover, Zhang Wei dared to say that if she were asked to climb Aunt Mary's castle now, she would no longer have to envy Venus.
Just as Zhang Wei was thinking about whether to ask Emma to bring them some fruit because she was starting to feel a little constipated, Venus came over in a helicopter before she could make the call.
It turned out that Devon had notified the new students to return to school early. Emma was afraid that the two of them would not have enough time to adjust, so she told Venus to end it early.
"What do you think, kids?" Although Venus often stared at the surveillance camera, she was still very interested in their feelings.
"It's okay." To be honest, it didn't mean much to Zhang Wei. She was just a semi-skilled worker, but it made her recall the good old days and think about how it was not easy for her to come here from Chenjia Village across the ocean.
"So-so" Namir also said something similar to Zhang Wei.
He didn't think this training was very meaningful. In his opinion, it was just a large-scale game of playing house, and was not as interesting as physical training.
He also felt that if he wanted to adapt to life in Devon, he didn't need to wash his own clothes. Manny said that in Devon, he could go home on weekends and bring his dirty clothes back to wash in the washing machine.
Actually, if you think about it, there shouldn’t be much difference from being at home before, except that I can’t be with my family.
"Well, this isn't a special training session specifically prepared for you. There are other reasons."
Venus finally told the truth.
Zhang Wei looked at Venus in surprise. She really felt it was strange before. No matter how she convinced herself that the Wilsons wanted to train their children to live independently, it was still a bit early for two 11-year-old children.
It turns out that Charles' company is making a big move, and his rival has become a desperado due to business failure.
Leida's whereabouts are unknown and Manny returned to school early, so the two of them are the most unsafe, and Venus also has to help protect the Wilsons' safety.
Just as she knew a place like this that was isolated from the outside world, she installed a few surveillance cameras in advance and sent them over.
Venus said with some regret:
"Actually, if you asked for food or anything else, I would have sent someone to deliver it to you. I didn't expect you to take survival so seriously."
Is this our fault? Zhang Wei thought.
After hearing what Venus said, Namir was obviously angry.
When he got home, he ignored Charles and Emma and went straight upstairs.
Zhang Wei quickly explained, "Well, he might be constipated. We haven't been eating much fruit lately."
Emma and Charles hugged her and praised her:
"Vera, you're amazing. You've learned everything. It's all thanks to you that you can live there for so long!"
"Namir is also great, we cooperate very well," Zhang Wei praised.
"This kid must be angry. Did Venus tell you?" Emma said with a smile.
Zhang Wei nodded.
"It's okay, he'll figure it out himself. We did this for everyone's safety, and now the danger is finally over."
"Is it true that we need to go to London in advance?" This is what Zhang Wei is more concerned about.
"It's true, but you only need to go there a week in advance. You can rest at home for a while."
Hearing these words, Zhang Wei felt as if she had heard the sound of nature. This month was really wonderful and she needed a good rest.
When she had rubbed her whole body clean and lay on the soft big bed, smelling the faint floral fragrance coming in from the window, she fell asleep without even having dinner.
During this time, Betty came to see her once, and Emma also came in and touched her palm. When she found that her questions were normal, she did not disturb her again.
She woke up hungry in the morning but didn't want to get up. She realized once again that this is how life should be!
No matter how the books praise suffering: God will give a man a great mission, he must first make his heart suffer, his muscles and bones tired, and his body hungry...
But everyone only comes to this world once. Although she is an exception for the time being, she doesn't have a next life either. Of course, she can live her life to her heart's content!
So until going to London, Zhang Wei spent her time partying with Dora, Paris and others, shopping in Chinatown, and reading at home.
Summer passed by and school was finally about to start for her.
