At this moment, above the desert.
Looking at the two sisters' adorable faces on the screen, Su Yiqing's previously tense expression softened. "Let's turn back!"
Fu Wen was somewhat shocked. "Boss, are we going back now? Aren't we going to look for the two young ladies in the desert?"
"I'm not going." Su Yiqing leaned back in his chair, looking at Ruan Ruan and Qian Qian on the screen with a kind old father's smile.
Although Gu Chen's behavior annoyed him and he wanted to go over there right now and give him a good beating, he still couldn't help but be annoyed.
However, Xiao Ruanruan didn't like him controlling her so tightly, so as her older brother, he naturally had to be sensible and give her enough freedom.

On the other side.
Mr. Bell had already disassembled the metal detector in no time. After taking off the wire, straightening it, and cutting it into pieces about half a meter long.
Then they gave the wire to Xiao Qingzai and Kang Kang, and asked them to find stones to sharpen it.
They then selected a flexible branch, cut it down, and asked Guoguo, who had four little braids, for some rubber bands to make a simple bow.
After he finished making the bow, Qingzai and Kang Kang had already sharpened all the wires.
Bell took the remains of the sand fox out and threw them on the ground, then led the children to hide.
Little Softie also collected all the wires that Teacher Bell had discarded, put them in her bag, and hid them in the bushes with Teacher Bell.
Food is scarce in the desert, and the remains of the sand fox quickly attracted a large number of birds.
Before long, some birds boldly flew down to peck at the fox meat. Teacher Bell immediately drew his bow and shot an arrow, which pierced directly through the bird's head.
The children's gazes towards Teacher Bell instantly became even more filled with admiration, especially the two boys, Kang Kang and Xiao Qingzai, whose eyes...
On the screen—
[Bear Grylls is amazing! He managed to shoot someone in the head with such a simple tool?]
[Luckily, the arrow pierced the bird's eye, resulting in a headshot. Had it been from a different spot, it might have only caused minor superficial wounds.]
They actually shot birds to eat! How cruel!
[To the saintly person above: Then please, don't eat meat anymore, thank you!]
[It's not that you shouldn't eat meat, it's that you shouldn't eat anything at all. Animals are living beings, plants are too, rice is a seed. What are you going to eat? You might as well go cultivate immortality and abstain from grains!]
...
Teacher Bell shot several more birds in succession, and only after he had used up all his arrows did he go and collect the birds.
The other birds that had been driven away flew back to the branches and perched there, but they still stared menacingly at the remains of the sand fox on the ground.
Susie happily went to prepare the food, while the two boys, Xiaoqingzai and Kang Kang, were responsible for collecting dry branches from the woods to use as firewood.
Little Ruanruan took out the wires and batteries she had taken from her sister's metal detector and started playing with them. Then she ran to the logistics team and asked Brother Gu Chen for a very small transformer.
After reconnecting the battery, wires, and transformer, she dragged the sand fox remains to a slightly more secluded place and placed the tools she had made under the remains.
He then went to the lake to wash his hands.
When she returned after washing her hands, she saw Jiajia and Guoguo, who had been hiding, excitedly covering their mouths, while several birds had already fallen to the ground.
Xiao Ruanruan called to Jiajia and Guoguo to pick up the birds and give them to their older sister.
"Sister, you should deal with these birds first. They're just unconscious, not dead yet. If you don't take care of them quickly, they'll run away when they wake up," Little Softie earnestly instructed her sister.
Ms. Bell, who was dealing with the birds with Sisi, stared in surprise, "Little Softie, how did you stun them?"
“It’s electric!” Little Softie replied, and seeing the confusion in Teacher Bell’s eyes, she explained, “I took the wires and batteries off your detector, got a transformer, and made a trap to put under the remains of the sand fox. When the birds go to eat the sand fox meat, they will get shocked.”
However, the transformer wasn't powerful enough, and the battery wasn't powerful enough, so it could only stun the bird, not kill it.
As Xiao Ruanruan was talking, Jiajia and Guoguo each brought a bird and came running over. "Sister Qianqian, Ruanruan, you caught two more!"
Teacher Bell couldn't help but give Xiao Ruanruan a thumbs up, "Chinese kids, you're really amazing!"
Little Softie tilted her head and gave Teacher Bell a sweet smile. "Teacher Bell, you're amazing too! You managed to shoot so many birds with such a simple bow and arrow."
"And if you hadn't thought of using the remains of sand foxes as bait and the wire from my sister's detector as arrows, I wouldn't have come up with this hunting method."
Susie glanced at Teacher Bell, then at Little Softie, "Mutual flattery?"
As night fell, half of the ostrich leg meat, cut into small pieces, was roasted until golden brown and glistening with oil, while the other half was stewing in a pot borrowed from the production team, the milky white soup bubbling and steaming.
The birds that had been hunted were already roasting over the fire.
After roasting a batch of birds, Xiao Ruanruan didn't hesitate to take two of them and send them to Brother Gu Chen.
Brother Gu Chen was repairing some kind of machine, his hands covered in black, sticky machine oil.
Looking at the little softie, his eyes and brows were full of gentle smiles, "Little softie, can you feed me?"
"Yes, yes, that's fine!" Little Ruanruan nodded emphatically, holding the fragrant roasted bird meat, and tiptoed to bring it to Gu Chen's mouth.
After taking a bite, Gu Chen looked satisfied. "The things Xiao Ruanruan makes are just delicious."
Little Ruanruan saw that there was oil on the corner of Gu Chen's mouth, and subconsciously stood on tiptoe to wipe it off with her little hands.
Gu Chen's upturned lips instantly turned into a wide grin.
Qiu Shun, who was standing to the side, couldn't bear to look and turned his face away. His little master in front of the little dumpling had absolutely no control over his expressions!
