Liu Jia wanted to speak, but hesitated and stopped herself...
Because Ye Feng had told her before he left that she couldn't tell her grandmother what she was going to do...
So as not to worry Grandma…
Thinking of this, she changed the subject and replied:
"These were all sent by Xiaofeng..."
"oh…"
Bai Qingping nodded slightly. After her two sons died, she had been living with her grandson.
It could be said that Ye Feng was her whole life…
"Then...why doesn't Feng'er come to see me?"
Liu Jia smiled, picked up an apple, and started peeling it…
"Xiao Feng is busy making big money. Look at this ward, and all the money you've spent on your treatment recently. It's all Xiao Feng's money."
He's very busy right now, he's on a business trip, but don't worry, he'll be back soon.
Bai Qingping forced a smile, and the wrinkles on her face seemed to deepen...
"Good, my grandson is really promising, but tell him not to overwork himself."
Whether he gets treatment or not doesn't matter. I've lived this long enough... I'll be satisfied if I can see him succeed...
"What are you saying..."
Liu Jia said reproachfully:
"Xiao Feng doesn't want to hear these words. You should just focus on getting better and not think about anything else."
After saying that, she handed him a piece of apple...
She had actually learned about Ye Feng's situation from his fans, and when she heard that Ye Feng was fighting wild boars and jaguars, her heart clenched...
But there was nothing she could do for her nephew; all she could do was silently pray for his safe return…
But while some are happy, others are sad. Compared to her worries, the online discussion about Ye Feng is quite heated.
In the third episode, Ye Feng had over 40 minutes of screen time, making him the most prominent Asian guest on the show since its inception…
Many self-media outlets want to edit his story into short video platforms for promotion.
Without exception, every platform banned the upload...
Even so, the popularity of the name Ye Feng remains undiminished.
The online forums and message boards were almost entirely dominated by Ye Feng, with discussions revolving around whether he could successfully complete the challenge and become the sole survivor in the show's three-year run…
Who would have thought that the Chinese, who lead comfortable lives, would be so fond of this bloody and cruel program?
This level of enthusiasm is in no way inferior to that of adventurous foreigners…
However, the more they act like this, the more money the production team makes…
At this moment, inside the triangular building in Merrick…
Makuko, a cigar dangling from his lips, grinned as he looked at the ratings report…
So happy that he didn't even have time to light his cigarette ash...
That's right, the third episode broke records again, surpassing one billion views in just two hours...
According to backend data, almost no viewers skipped the segment featuring Ye Feng…
In other words, Ye Feng has become the mainstay of this show...
Makuko had expected this Chinese guy to perform well, but he never imagined he would be this good…
"Okay, okay..."
He nodded and laughed, then handed the report back to the ugly emperor beside him a moment later…
"Have you gotten any results regarding the matter I asked you to investigate?"
The Ugly King nudged his enormous red nose and nodded…
"This Ye Feng graduated from a second-rate university in Chongqing, China, and apart from being good at chemistry, his grades in other subjects were very average."
His father and uncle were miners at a mine. Due to improper operation during blasting, the mine collapsed, and both died on the spot.
After that, his mother left him, and now only his grandmother and his aunt are left in the house.
His grandmother is seriously ill and needs a heart transplant; she is still in the hospital.
He participated in a student shooting club during college and achieved excellent results, often winning first place.
This kid had absolutely no prior experience in wilderness survival; he'd never even left Chongqing City.
At this point, the Ugly King handed Makuko a piece of paper covered in English...
"Based on the websites he usually browses, as well as some accounts from his college classmates."
He has virtually no entertainment activities and enjoys reading.
My favorite books are those by Bear Grylls and Ed Stafford.
The videos are mostly about wilderness survival.
"hehe…"
Makuko let out a cunning, sinister laugh…
"I knew it! How could someone so young know so much about survival?"
It seems he's more than just an enthusiast; judging from his recent pottery making and arrowhead crafting, he's definitely an expert.
"Um."
The Ugly Emperor nodded in agreement…
"He can certainly create a lot of surprises among this year's challengers."
I estimate that he should be in the top three in terms of both survival knowledge and practical skills.
It's a pity... if he weren't Chinese, he might have really had a chance to win the grand prize.
"oh?"
Makuko gave a meaningful, sly smile…
What does that mean?
The Ugly King scoffed dismissively, his tone tinged with regret and mockery…
"Sir, you may not know much about this country. They value benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and trustworthiness."
Even when facing countries that once invaded and massacred them, many of their young people have chosen to forget or forgive after so many years…
Some people even wear the country's national costume and dance in the street without feeling ashamed at all.
To put it simply, these people are forgetful of past mistakes and have a soft heart, a common flaw among Chinese people, deeply influenced by their culture…
They insist on stopping at the right point in everything, which is extremely pedantic.
Even if someone like that manages to survive in the wild, he'll probably end up dying at the hands of other challengers…
"Hahaha!"
After hearing this, Makuko burst into laughter…
"Well said! However... your statement is too one-sided..."
I think this kid is different from other Chinese people...
He didn't hold back at all when he killed someone last time... I guess he's figured it out now.
Also… has Chou Chou called yet?
The Ugly Emperor nodded...
He said he didn't know the exact time, but it should be within 5 to 10 days...
It was even earlier than the information we received before…
This year's rainfall is likely to exceed 5,500 millimeters, causing the worst flooding in history.
By then, all the low-lying areas of the Amazon will be submerged.
Now, virtually all the shelters built by the challengers are beyond saving.
After listening, Makuko stubbed out his cigar... slowly looked at the screen in the monitoring room, and murmured something softly...
"My money trees, you absolutely must hold on..."
The next day—
Ye Feng slowly opened his eyes and found that apart from himself and Liu Sisi, who was threading a needle, everyone else in the treehouse was nowhere to be seen...
But it was already close to noon. Perhaps they had replenished their salt, or perhaps they were no longer under the pressure of survival...
Last night was the best and most restful night's sleep he'd had since arriving in the Amazon...
