Chapter 14 Chapter 14 Pretending to be struck by lightning
After the strong wind turned elsewhere, visibility dropped to freezing point.
The sky was filled with dust and it was impossible to tell the direction.
He Junzhuo could only shout into the air: "Brother Yan! Do you have any gold or silver jewelry on you? If so, take them all off and throw them away!"
The feeling of being eaten by thousands of insects became more and more intense, and the itchiness penetrated into the skin, making Li Xingyan even more anxious.
Pure gold necklaces, rings, earrings... oh, watches, brooches...
The more panicked you are, the harder it is to pick.
"Bang!"
A terrifying flash of lightning pierced through the clouds, cutting through the dust and fog like a natural moat.
Without the obstruction of urban buildings, the lightning rampaged across the disordered wilderness and instantly hit an off-road vehicle that had already been hit and stalled.
The automatic horns of vehicles honked one after another, like the howling of hell.
"Brother Yan, are you ready? Hold on tight!"
“Alright, alright!”
After finally picking all the fruits, Li Xingyan let out a long sigh.
For the first time, he realized that being too rich was not a good thing.
"No wonder people often say not to wear gold and silver and show off everywhere."
Ban Le saw clearly what happened to Master Li and couldn't help but sneer, "It turns out that pretending to be cool really does get you struck by lightning."
Yun Ti did not respond.
She was learning. Whether it was Ye Xuan, Xiao He, or Zhang Jingmin, humans possessed a wealth of wisdom that needed to be mastered.
She asked in a deep voice, "What then? Will the thunder no longer strike?"
"Cover your ears with your hands, squat down, put your feet together, stand on your heels, and keep your chest close to your knees." He Junzhuo couldn't see them, so he stayed where he was and gave orders. "If there's a car nearby, jump next to it in this position, and everything will be fine. Sigh..."
Unfortunately, I can’t see anything.
Zhang Jingmin exclaimed: "I just saw Brother Tai and his car, it seems to be nearby!"
But Li Xingyan refused to do it, "Can't you just run away? This posture... isn't very decent." Where would his elegant and wealthy face be?
Glancing at the time on the bracelet, three minutes had passed since Xiao He said he was "locked by lightning."
It's been so long and the thunder hasn't struck yet. People are taking their time, and the thunder is also taking its time.
Yun Ti lowered her wrist and strode towards Li Xingyan.
He was startled by the sudden appearance of a figure.
"You, you, you! Stay away from me!"
Li Xingyan wanted to say that he was now a high-risk conductor and was afraid that he would affect her.
But as soon as he opened his mouth, his words changed. "You can just stay with those mistresses and spare tires. Why are you sticking with me? I'm telling you, we are not in that kind of relationship anymore. You were the one who left me first..."
The next second, the body flew into the air.
This posture, this pose... an extremely familiar feeling came to my mind.
really.
Yun Ti carried him like a lamb to be slaughtered, breaking through the wind and sand, ignoring him as if he were nothing, and headed straight for a car.
He yanked open the car door and flung Li Xingyan inside, "Wait until your hair stops reacting before you come out."
He Junzhuo finally found the car by listening to the sound, blinked in confusion, and finally slowly raised his thumb.
"My fate is in my own hands."
–
Inside the car.
The atmosphere is weird.
A rich young man who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, and several people from the bottom of society who each had a criminal record.
If it weren't for this pig-killing show, if it weren't for Yun Ti's forced throwing, they might never have been in the same space and talked to each other.
"Is your father really Lu Jingtian, the richest man in China on TV? Why don't you take your father's last name?"
"Your family is so rich, why do you still participate in this competition?"
"I heard that your grandfather was a founding father. Is that true?"
The space in the back row was small, and in order to make room for Li Xingyan, Wu Guanghao and the other two almost huddled to the other side.
She thought that by being respectful, she could win the young master's favor.
After all, a few small favors from a wealthy person of this level would be enough for ordinary people to have enough food and clothing for a lifetime.
But Li Xingyan pressed his face against the car window and ignored them.
The red-orange sky is slowly fading, the lightning and thunder are gradually weakening, and the silhouettes of people can be vaguely seen in the dim flying sand.
Not far away, Yun Ti and others were still lying flat beside the motorcycle, motionless.
"Do you like that girl so much? And you haven't gotten her yet?" Shen Tai said suddenly from the passenger seat.
Wu Guanghao touched his chin and smiled in an ambiguous manner. "That girl has a nice face and figure, but she's a bit dark, and her skin isn't as radiant as that female star's. Her personality is even worse. There's no femininity at all..."
"Are you manly?"
Li Xingyan turned around with a cold tone.
"Of course!" Wu Guanghao rolled up his sleeves and patted the muscles on his arms. "Look, all that training paid off! If Master Li needs a bodyguard, come find me. I'll definitely help..."
"So this is what you call manliness," Li Xingyan glanced at him with disdain, pinching her nose. "I thought it was the smell of sweat, body odor, bad breath, or foot odor... You've overdosed it. Try to control the smell."
"Ah? Is there?" Wu Guanghao lowered his head and smelled himself everywhere.
To be honest, yes.
Since the show was recorded, we have been traveling for several days, sleeping in the open air. If we are a little more particular, we will jump in and take a bath when we come across a stream.
But most of the contestants haven't showered for several days, and when they go to the toilet, they just find a place where no one is around and do it quickly.
Unlike Master Li, he brought a foldable outdoor bath cover, a portable bathtub, a car emergency toilet and other equipment. He hired someone to help him find water sources and boil hot water every day, and then he burned incense and bathed like a palace concubine, keeping himself "spotless".
Some people privately mocked him for being "more delicate than a woman", but no one dared to say anything to his face.
Since this guy is the God of Wealth who is stupid and rich, he must take advantage of the opportunity to make a fortune.
Wu Guanghao knew very well that this guy was not to be messed with, so he smiled and flattered, "Yes, let's find a river to take a bath today."
"The smell on your body may be washed away. But if your heart is rotten, it will smell like decay even when buried in the ground."
Li Xingyan stared into his eyes without blinking, completely lacking the youthful vibe he had imagined. "Before you judge others, consider your own worth. Who do you think you are?"
The car suddenly became quiet.
It turned out that he did it to vent his anger on that girl.
Wu Guanghao's face changed instantly and his fists clenched tightly.
The other two hurriedly held him down. Chen Tai in the front seat exchanged glances with Xiang Xiong in the driver's seat and spoke in peace, "Alright, alright. The most urgent thing is to get to the meeting point as quickly as possible. Xiao Hao, don't get carried away with your words."
"Master Li, calm down," Chen Tai turned around and raised his lips, "Shall we talk?"
*
The sky was still hazy, but the dust and fog had dissipated nearby.
The place was in a mess.
The vehicles that were involved in the chain collision were piled up together, several of them were scrapped on the spot, and white smoke was coming out of the hoods.
Some of the iron was dented, but the engine still worked.
The motorcycle was hit and sandwiched between the off-road vehicles. The contestant flew a hundred meters away and lay on the ground wailing.
Many people were injured, but fortunately no one was killed.
A dozen people led by Ye Xuan were counting the number of people and cleaning up the mess.
"Ye Xuan! What kind of road are you taking us? We trusted you so much, and now our car is scrapped. What do you think we should do?"
When one person opens the door to resentment, countless resentful spirits that have been suppressed for a long time rush out from this gap until the crack becomes bigger and bigger.
"I finally managed to see the shadow of the rainforest, but now all my efforts have been wasted! I'm stuck!"
"If we can't reach the meeting point, will you be responsible? If we can't get the bonus, will you compensate us?"
"I should have listened to Yun Ti earlier. Special forces, exploration experts, field troops, all those titles and statuses are nothing compared to a little girl!"
"By the way, who knows if their identities are real or fake? They must have made them up just to create a persona for the camera..."
There was smoke everywhere over there.
Here, Yun Ti was already leaning against the motorcycle, enjoying her meal.
All the contestants who were on the "right team" now looked at her as if she had a divine aura, and any delicious food and drinks they had hidden were eagerly stuffed into her arms.
Yun Ti naturally wouldn't be polite and accepted everything.
Seeing her heartless look, Li Xingyan couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth.
Suddenly remembering that he was still angry with her, he suppressed his smile.
I checked in the car mirror and found that my hair had returned to its original shape, and the intense itching on my body had disappeared without a trace.
Li Xingyan grabbed the handle inside the car and pushed it open impatiently.
"Master Li, you may consider the proposal I made today."
Shen Tai spoke in a gentle tone, giving an attitude that was inconsistent with his usual style of doing things, "Don't be in a hurry to refuse, maybe you will come to us on your own initiative in the future."
Li Xingyan paused for a moment, without looking back or answering, and got out of the car.
"Damn it! You just got born into a good family and have a few fucking billions of dollars, yet you act so arrogant!"
Wu Guanghao spat, feeling so angry that he had no place to vent.
Don't fall into my hands, otherwise, I will make sure to push this arrogant young master face down and stomp him hard into the mud.
"Will he really cooperate with us? Not really." Xiang Xiong said thoughtfully.
"If it were another rich second generation like Li Xingyan, he might not take what I just said seriously, but he is different." Shen Tai sneered, tilted his head, and looked at Xiang Xiong.
"My mind is full of women."
Xiang Xiong's heart trembled, and a sense of guilt inexplicably flashed across his mind.
Chen Tai smiled playfully, as if there was something else behind his words. "People with love-brain are most likely to be manipulated."
–
Four hours have passed since the sandstorm.
In the distance, yellow sand still fills the entire sky.
The oasis of hope that was still vaguely visible in the morning became like a mirage, a dying illusion for those who had been suffering from drought for a long time.
"What should I do? I can't find the direction, the car broke down, and I've eaten all the compressed biscuits in my bag. I'm not like those players who use cheats and need to bring their own dry food..."
Someone casually joked: "If you have the guts, go steal their supplies, including their car. Anyway, the production team doesn't have any rules against stealing other people's things."
For a moment, everyone was silent.
"bite."
At the same time, several messages popped up on all connected bracelets.
