Countdown to the Rainy Season Day 29 2
Seeing the black bear, Yun Mianmian's first reaction was of course to run away, but she held back and forced herself to calm down.
She took a deep breath.
Bears are much faster than humans, and she can't outrun them at all.
She has read the survival manual, which teaches what to do when encountering a bear.
Black bears are relatively small in size among all bears, but black bears can climb trees. Climbing up a tree is useless, even playing dead is useless.
Yun Mianmian can only slowly retreat, not letting the black bear feel threatened. She thought carefully, the only weapons she currently has are a slingshot and a dagger, and these two things have little damage to black bears. It is impossible to kill this black bear, after all, the black bear can slap her away with a slap.
Yun Mianmian didn't dare to experiment with her life. Although she was much stronger now, she could only keep a distance from the black bear and didn't even look it in the eye.
Fortunately, the black bear didn't mean to get close to her. It just stood not far away and watched.
The black bear's eyesight was not good. When Yun Mianmian hid behind her shelter, it seemed that it couldn't see her.
Of course, Yun Mianmian kept repeating in her heart, don't come over if you can't see me.
After all, today is not over yet, and the effect of wishing for something to come true is useful.
Although the black bear couldn't see Yun Mianmian, she could see the black bear wandering around while hiding behind. She didn't know if it was thinking about the fish that Yun Mianmian roasted on the fire or other food.
After all, it should not be interested in Yun Mianmian as a human.
Black bears are relatively timid, and Yun Mianmian didn't intend to irritate it. She thought to herself that it seemed like she had to move.
Although she didn't have many things, it would be troublesome to move and find another place.
She planned to leave before the black bear saw her, but unexpectedly, before she left, the black bear turned around twice and left first.
Maybe it saw the fire here, and didn't understand humans, so it was a little scared and left.
Yun Mianmian hid behind the shelter vigilantly and waited for a long time. The black bear didn't come back, so she finally came out.
The food on the fire had been roasted black.
Should she move to another place?
Yun Mianmian was confused for a second, but she picked up her frying pan, fishing rod, slingshot, and some supplies she had collected before, packed them up quickly, took the fish with her, and left without looking back.
It was not difficult to change the shelter, but rebuilding a house was a very time-consuming and energy-consuming task. Fortunately, the food she had just eaten replenished her physical strength.
While it was still light, she found a place far away to stay.
She thought of the trap she set yesterday, and she didn't know if any prey was caught.
But according to her luck today, there must be.
But Yun Mianmian's hands were full now. Even if she went to check, she couldn't take any more. Besides, she was running out of time. It was getting dark, so she could only find a suitable place to be a shelter first, and then go to check the trap when she was free.
She walked upstream along the stream.
Finally, I found a good place. After walking around for a long time, I didn't see any bear footprints or feces.
Although it was almost dark, if I used the time, I should be able to build a simple shelter for the night.
Just when Yun Mianmian was preparing to work hard to rebuild a shelter, she found a wooden house not far away.
Is there anyone else?
Yun Mianmian walked over carefully with the food. It turned out that this wooden house was a semi-finished product. Only the roof was not completed. Even the materials for the roof were next to it.
Yun Mianmian looked around and found that there was not even a fire here, no one around, no food, and nothing in the tree house.
There were only some leftover fish bones on the open space.
Someone must have been here, but why is there no trace of a fire, and why did they leave when the tree house was half built?
If someone lived here, it shouldn't be like this.
If no one was here, she could stay here, since she had all the materials, and she could move in after she finished building the roof.
She would wait and see if anyone came, as it was getting dark. If
someone came, she would leave and find another place nearby.
She had been on the island for two days and hadn't seen anyone else. Perhaps the person who built this wooden house was another contestant.
Yun Mianmian had only met a handful of players so far.
In fact, even if she encountered them, the danger was not high, because the system stipulated that only three items could be brought, so survival players could not bring any serious weapons, and would still tend to choose survival items.
Moreover, all the players' backpacks were locked, and they had no supplies on them. In addition, it was a live broadcast, so it was impossible for players to fight each other right away.
So many players were watching.
If she could use this wooden house directly, it would save her a lot of trouble, and the location was also very good.
Yun Mianmian thought so, and simply started a fire under the tree.
Let's wait a little longer, she sat on the stone next to her and began to weave a fish cage.
In fact, there is no need to make a fish cage. The few fish caught today cannot be eaten up, even tomorrow.
If she really meets a player later, Yun Mianmian doesn't mind sharing a fish with him.
She just thought so.
She saw a tall man carrying a hare and a grouse walking over.
Yun Mianmian paused, and the other party was also stunned when he saw Yun Mianmian.
Yun Mianmian, no, she doesn't need this kind of wish to come true.
She really just thought that!
-
Yun Mianmian's live broadcast room:
"Who is this? It seems that he is not a player from our area."
"This person has a lot of gains and looks like a powerful one."
"Wow, I met another player. I said there is such a possibility."
"I don't know if he is an enemy or a friend. Will there be any danger?"
"Not really, I think this person has a lot of resources. A normal person wouldn't fight."
Zhao Yichen's live broadcast room:
"Who is this girl? So beautiful!"
"She's not from our district. I didn't expect Zhao Yichen to run into a girl from another district. This is fun."
"Hahaha, this girl has a lot of stuff. Look at how many fish she has."
"The problem is, this seems to be Zhao Yichen's shelter. Why is she here?"
Yun Miangmian raised her hand and greeted.
"Hello, is this your shelter? I thought no one was here, so I planned to stay here."
Zhao Yichen stared at Yun Miangmian for a while and nodded slightly.
He saw Yun Miangmian's fire and his eyes changed slightly.
Yun Miangmian: "If you mind, I'll leave."
It was still raining at this time, but it was not a problem for Yun Miangmian to change places.
But the other party said, "Wait."
Yun Mianmian: "Something?"
She looked at the other party's hand warily.
Zhao Yichen: "You can stay. I'll give you the wooden house. You just need to provide a fire source."
Yun Mianmian: "Don't you have a fire?"
Zhao Yichen shook his head.
-Zhao
Yichen's live broadcast room:
"Hahahaha, what a stroke of luck, Zhao Yichen lost his flint just after he arrived, and now a player actually sends him fire."
"Oh no, I was just complaining, what's the point of Zhao Yichen catching rabbits and grouse, he doesn't even have fire, is he trying to make fire by drilling wood?"
"It's not impossible to make fire by drilling wood, but it's very difficult, at least it will take several hours, and if you don't have experience, you can't even make a spark in a day or two."
"Anyway, he doesn't want to build that wooden house, so he just gave it away if someone wants it."
Yun Mianmian's live broadcast room:
"Isn't this a coincidence? A pile of fire can be exchanged for this big wooden house, it's a bit of a plan."
"But this wooden house is not finished yet, and there is only a shelter, are they going to live together?"
"No way, who is this person? Is he trying to take advantage of Yun Mianmian because she's pretty?"
"It won't be a problem, it just feels wrong."
Yun Mianmian glanced at the wooden house, "It's just a wooden house, give it to me, what about you?"
Zhao Yichen pointed to the big tree next to it, "I'll sleep on the tree."
Yun Mianmian looked over in surprise. There was a thick branch lying horizontally on the tree, which could indeed accommodate a person. However, whoever sits on it can't move at all, it must be very uncomfortable.
Yun Mianmian: "Okay."
It was getting late, so they might as well stay here.
After Yun Mianmian agreed, Zhao Yichen was obviously relieved.
It seemed that he really needed fire.
Without fire, he had no water today and ate raw food. If he hadn't picked some herbs to promote digestion and regulate the stomach, he would probably have had a stomachache today and couldn't move. He
didn't even know how to eat the rabbits and grouse he had just caught from the trap.
Yun Mianmian's fire really helped a lot.
Anyway, he felt troublesome when he was halfway through building the wooden house, so he left it there and didn't want to build it anymore, because as he was building it, he realized that he would only live there for three days, and he could even sleep in a tree, so there was no need to build such a big wooden house.
Although he had almost prepared all the materials, he still didn't continue the effort.
Yun Mianmian continued to build it.
She moved quickly and quickly built the roof of the cabin. She also found some banana leaves and moss, covered the roof, and blocked the gaps on the side of the cabin.
The temperature was very low tonight, and in order to keep warm, she prepared to build a stove again.
But she noticed that Zhao Yichen had gone somewhere.
Yun Mianmian ignored him and busy herself.
It was troublesome to build the stove, and Yun Mianmian spent more than an hour on it.
When she was done, she found that Zhao Yichen had returned with the processed rabbits and grouse in his hands.
It seemed that he also knew that prey should not be processed around the shelter.
He had removed the hair and dirt from the rabbits and chickens, and they looked bald, just waiting to be cooked to become delicacies.
Yun Mianmian looked at him and said hesitantly, "Do you eat fish? I'll trade with you."
Yun Mianmian just didn't have time to get other ingredients, so now all she had on hand were fish. Seeing the rabbit and chicken, she was a little tempted.
Yun Mianmian pointed to the fish she brought.
"Salmon, the meat is delicious. I've prepared it. I just caught it today." Yun Mianmian started to promote, "Two fish, in exchange for half a rabbit and half a chicken. These fish are big, enough for you to eat for a whole day tomorrow."
Zhao Yichen was silent for a moment.
The rabbit and chicken are enough for him to eat until tomorrow even if he eats them sparingly.
The competition will be over the day after tomorrow morning.
Yun Mianmian saw that he was not tempted, so she just gave up.
Since the shelter was ready, she just went back to see if there was any harvest in the trap.
Yun Mianmian picked up the fishing rod with the fish hanging on it and said, "I'll go find something and come back."
She meant that she still wanted the wooden house.
Zhao Yichen didn't say anything. He found branches and prepared to roast rabbit meat.
Yun Mianmian walked a short distance and found a tree and hung the fish on it.
She took it out just now to prevent it from being taken by that person. Who knows if that person will steal her fish? It's better to take it away. She won't carry it all the time. Find a place to put it and come back to get it later.
She quickened her pace and came to the trap she set yesterday.
The first trap was not triggered.
She was a little disappointed and made a silent wish in her heart that the second trap would not let her down.
She soon came to the second trap.
A rabbit was hung in a circle made of vines and was already dead.
Yun Mianmian was overjoyed and quickly ran over to take the rabbit down.
Now there was rabbit meat to eat.
She happily carried the rabbit to the cabin.
When she came back with the fish and the rabbit, she smelled a burnt smell.
She frowned. It turned out that Zhao Yichen had burnt the rabbit. He was using a knife to cut off the burnt rabbit meat and eat the meat inside.
Yun Mianmian couldn't stand it. This man didn't even know how to grill meat.
She had just processed the rabbit on the way back, so when she came back, she only had to smear salt and spices on the rabbit meat and grill it directly.
Zhao Yichen sat aside and watched her touch something on the rabbit and stuff some wild vegetables into the rabbit's stomach. She looked very professional.
Soon, the fragrance overflowed. The fragrance of the rabbit meat and the fragrance of the spices were blended together after heating. This is the real smell of roasted meat.
Zhao Yichen looked at the charcoal-black rabbit he was roasting, and immediately lost his appetite.
Yun Mianmian's
live broadcast room: "Welcome to watch Yun Mianmian's food feast!"
"Hahaha, this person is stunned."
"Sure enough, it's not just people in our district who have to endure this pain, now players in other districts have to watch Yun Mianmian's eating show!"
"It's so cool, I don't know which district is so lucky."
"Yun Mianmian, why don't you ask."
Yun Mianmian used a wooden stick to pass through the middle of the rabbit's body, and then made a bracket, put the rabbit meat on it, and rotated the rabbit from time to time to prevent uneven heating.
She also took the time to make another hot and sour grilled fish according to the method used at noon.
She was a little sad that she didn't eat the one at noon, but she had so much fish meat, and if one was gone, there were still seven, so she would just make it again.
Zhao Yichen sat nearby and no longer wanted to eat the rabbit he had roasted.
He even thought that what he had in his hand was a pile of shit.
The food at Yun Mianmian's place was really food.
It was not his fault, as he had never cooked before coming to this game.
After coming here, he did not need to cook for himself on the boat, because he could either open boxes to get food, or exchange supplies with others for food.
But now he had to be self-reliant.
Yesterday he did not even have a fire, and all he ate was grass, berries, and raw fish.
Today he finally had a fire, but he was not happy with himself, and a good rabbit was ruined by himself.
Zhao Yichen was confused.
——After
the food was ready, Yun Mianmian took out a frying pan and put the rabbit in. The rabbit still needed to be processed in the second step.
That is to stew it with water. The roasted rabbit has fat on the surface. Adding wild onions to stew together will make it more delicious and the meat softer.
Yun Mianmian was very happy to eat meat after eating seafood these two days.
Seafood has no fat, but protein. She always feels unsatisfied.
Yun Mianmian prepared this rabbit very carefully. The appearance alone is enough to make people salivate.
Zhao Yichen's live broadcast room is already boiling.
Just like Yun Mianmian's live broadcast room two days ago.
"Oh my god, the food is so delicious, I've never seen it before! Why don't we have such a gourmet player in our area!"
"There are also players who have learned cooking skills, but they don't cook so well. They can only cook the original flavor. Unlike her, she adds so many spices and has many processes."
"I am drooling just by looking at it. Oh my god, if I had a bite of it, wouldn't it be so delicious?"
"She must have learned the dual skills of cooking and gathering, otherwise how could she find so many suitable cooking ingredients?"
"It must be. Which area is she from? She is so beautiful and so powerful." "Why
didn't you ask Zhao Yichen? She is such a fool."
"Zhao Yichen never speaks. It's so boring to watch his live broadcast. If you hadn't said there were beauties, I wouldn't have come. But I'm so hungry after watching it!"
It's finally done!
Yun Mianmian is also hungry.
After running around and working hard for so long, she could finally have something delicious.
She took out a bamboo tube with some water in it, drank some water first, and then sat down seriously, intending to enjoy the food.
When she looked up, she saw Zhao Yichen not far away looking at her eagerly.
Yun Mianmian immediately understood that this man wanted to eat.
But she wouldn't give it to him.
He just said that he wanted to exchange fish meat with him, but he didn't want to. If he was willing to exchange, Yun Mianmian would give him some no matter what.
But he didn't answer, and Yun Mianmian pretended not to understand his eyes.
I have to say, rabbit meat is really delicious when cooked like this.
Onions can stimulate appetite, help digestion, and remove coldness. Pairing with rabbit meat can enhance the flavor of rabbit meat.
After being roasted, the rabbit turns golden yellow, and then stewed, the taste is even better. The meat is covered with thick sauce, and it is very soft and tender, and the soup is rich and delicious.
Yun Mianmian ate more and more, and ate half of the pot in a short while.
Although her strength had long been restored, she still wanted to continue eating.
It was delicious.
However, there was still a portion of roasted fish left, so she had to save some space.
Yun Mianmian put the frying pan aside, and there was still a bowl of rabbit meat left in it.
Zhao Yichen stared at the rabbit meat in a daze.
Yun Mianmian's Live Room:
"I am dying of laughter, this guy is drooling!"
"The kid is so hungry, but they don't even give him anything to eat."
"This player is so pitiful, we are just watching through the light screen, he can see and smell it, he is so close, but he can't eat it, it's simply multiple tortures."
"It looks like he wants to eat it so badly, Yun Mianmian is so cruel."
"Just don't give him any, who made him unwilling to exchange meat before, now he regrets it."
"Right! Don't give him any, the food made by Yun Mianmian is only available to people in our third district. When she comes back, I will beg her to exchange with me."
-I'm
full!
But I didn't finish it.
The amount I made today was a bit too much, mainly because the rabbit was too fat. She couldn't finish it, so she didn't plan to throw it away or give it to that person. Instead, she put it in a frying pan, found a wooden board to cover it, and then pressed it with stones, preparing to find a place to put it.
The weather is so cold that it won't go bad overnight. Tomorrow morning, I can add some taro to it and cook it for breakfast.
Zhao Yichen is not a person who would be humble for food. Seeing Yun Mianmian finish eating and take the food away, he didn't say anything. He drank two sips of hot water and lay down on the tree.
In fact, Yun Mianmian did think about finding out who this person is.
But, what if it was from another district? Yun Mianmian wanted to know the situation in other districts, but it was a live broadcast at the moment. If she asked, she would not be the only one who knew, and others might not tell the truth. Besides, she had asked others, what if they asked her?
She said she would rather not tell.
It would not be good to tell, and it would be even more unkind not to tell.
So she simply did not ask. She did
not even ask the name, after all, it would be useless even if she knew the person.
Yun Mianmian thought so, and Zhao Yichen thought so too.
So the two of them understood each other tacitly, and no one said much.
Yun Mianmian's stove worked very well, and the wooden house was very warm. The large wooden house was much more comfortable than the small house she had built before. At least she could turn over in the wooden house.
Moreover, in the previous house, the stove could only be built outside because the space inside was too small to fit it. But this one is different. The stove can be built inside the wall of the wooden house, and the chimney can be built directly on top of it, which is very convenient.
Yun Mianmian didn’t want to build a big house before, thinking it was unnecessary as they would only live there for three days.
Now that she lives there, she feels that
a big house is better. If she were to build this house from start to finish by herself, it would take at least half a day.
But now, it’s easy, and it’s done in just two or three hours. She
can live comfortably in a big wooden house and build a fire for others, since she needs it anyway.
This deal is considered profitable.
Thinking of this, Yun Mianmian quickly closed her eyes to rest.
But she didn’t sleep too deeply, after all, there was a stranger outside.
She kept herself in a state of half-sleep and half-wakefulness, and the slightest movement would wake her up.
In the second half of the day, she vaguely heard the howling
of wolves. She opened her eyes and listened carefully to the movement outside.
The howling of the wolf came from far away, and it was still very quiet nearby, so she felt relieved and continued to close her eyes.
But she couldn't fall asleep for a while.
Thinking that tomorrow is the last day, and she doesn't know what will happen tomorrow.
Yun Mianmian became more and more sober.
The main reason was that she didn't know the situation of other players, so Yun Mianmian didn't know where she would rank.
She had been too smooth sailing in the past two days, and she didn't know whether the number of votes was high or low.
-
Nie Yangguang also couldn't sleep.
He really didn't find any food today, so he could only continue to eat shellfish picked up on the beach.
He ate too much, and his stomach was rumbling all the time, so he couldn't sleep all night and kept running out to go to the bathroom.
In the wild, he was not at ease when he went to the bathroom, for fear that something would suddenly bite his butt. He was also worried that if a wolf or some large beast suddenly appeared while he was going to the bathroom, what should he do?
Should he wipe his butt first, or pull up his pants first, or run first...
Every time he went to the bathroom, Nie Yangguang would think about this problem, but he didn't have an answer.
Mainly because he didn't encounter these emergencies.
It was already four or five in the middle of the night. If he didn't sleep, he would have no energy tomorrow.
But Nie Yangguang ran out to the bathroom again.
This time, he didn't know why, but he always felt that there was something outside, so he took a torch and went out.
He held up a torch, squatting and looking around.
Unexpectedly, he really saw a pair of glowing eyes in the darkness.
Nie Yangguang was shocked.
This time he finally knew the answer to the question.
That is to wipe your butt while backing away, and then put on your pants after wiping.
He was extremely panicked. What kind of animal was this? Why did it run to the beach in the middle of the night?
Nie Yangguang didn't even want his sleeping bag and hurried away.
But he didn't know where he was going. The animal seemed to be following him. Nie Yangguang was scared to death and ran like crazy. The torch in his hand was almost extinguished in the wind and rain, but he didn't care.
As he ran, he stepped on a stone and fell down. The pair of eyes behind him were getting closer and closer.
Nie Yangguang screamed.
"Help! Ah! Help, help!"
The one with the green eyes was a wolf, and it looked very hungry.
Nie Yangguang thought that this time it was really bad, he was dead!
He wanted to escape, but he couldn't even stand up. His foot was sprained, and he could only rely on the will to survive and crawl forward little by little.
The wolf was also slowly approaching.
The pair of green eyes were like will-o'-the-wisp, and Nie Yangguang's torch had been extinguished.
The last thought in his mind was that if he died, he could not go back! He still had a lot of supplies!
At the critical moment, Nie Yangguang heard a whoosh.
An arrow flew past Nie Yangguang's ear and shot straight into the wolf's eye.
Nie Yangguang only wailed once, and then his whole body went limp and he fainted.
