Chapter 19 Chapter 19 "It's a pleasure to work with you."
This pistol belongs to Ye Xuan in "Climbing the Wasteland".
Kill giant crocodiles, stop anacondas, and injure rioting elephants...
More importantly, he used it to kill people.
Therefore, Yun Ti could understand Ye Xuan’s desire for this gun.
It's like a prey that is sure to be caught, but is snatched away by the enemy halfway, leaving you feeling lost and helpless.
When he asked her indirectly for the fourth time, wanting to take a closer look, Yun Ti agreed.
Holding the gun in front of her eyes, Yun Ti warned: "Only look, no touching."
Ye Xuan laughed dumbly: "Can I still steal yours?"
"Who knows?"
Although Ye Xuan is a "positive character" in the book, as Ming Jiaojiao said, if you change the perspective, he might become a hypocritical villain.
Anyway, Yun Ti felt that the idiot Li Xingyan would definitely not be a villain.
For some reason, the little girl seemed to have a deep misunderstanding of him.
Ye Xuan shook his head helplessly and didn't care too much.
Following Yun Ti's hand, Ye Xuan looked around.
He only took a quick glimpse from a distance last night, but he had already roughly guessed the model of the pistol.
Glock 17, semi-automatic pistol, 17-round magazine.
"This gun is good. It has a long range and high accuracy. It's suitable for concealed carry and quick draw in emergencies." Ye Xuan paused, frowning slightly. "But it doesn't have an external manual safety, so it's easy to accidentally discharge."
He asked, "Can you shoot?"
"No, what's wrong?" Yun Ti was extremely vigilant. "You want to take advantage of me teaching you how to shoot so you can claim it as your own?"
Ye Xuan chuckled, "Am I so bad in your eyes?"
His tone was indifferent, as if he was just asking casually and had no obsession with the answer.
Seeing Yun Ti hesitate, he changed the subject in time: "Well, I won't touch the gun, I will just teach you how to hold and operate the trigger."
"However, the most important thing is to check the mechanical safety so that you don't get hurt by an accident."
After saying that, he assumed a gun-holding posture and motioned Yun Ti to follow him.
Birds fly and insects chirp in the forest. The morning sun shines obliquely through the gaps in the treetops, creating a hazy light and mist, forming a perfect Tyndall effect.
Li Xingyan leaned against the window, looking at this scene, he felt it was extremely dazzling, and his head, which had just become clear, began to feel dizzy again.
He gritted his teeth and lifted the thermal blanket.
"Tsk, how come such a good thing fell into the hands of a little girl? Does she know how to play it?"
"Isn't someone teaching her how to play?"
Behind the bamboo wall, the conversation was low and cunning.
"Brother Tai, when do we start?"
Li Xingyan quietly lay back in his original position, with his ear pressed against the wall.
"After entering the rain forest."
＊
Rest at the gathering point for two days.
Some people were very curious and went to explore the forest together. They were bitten by unknown snakes and insects. When they came back, they suffered from vomiting and diarrhea, skin ulcers, and high fever.
Medical supplies were limited, and even Su Jian and outdoor experts were helpless.
The program team finally showed mercy and sent staff.
This was the first time he had seen real people other than the contestants since being thrown onto the deserted island.
After transporting the injured players out, the staff began to emphasize the thrill of the upcoming schedule.
The deeper you go into the rainforest, the more mysterious it becomes. Venomous snakes and insects, miasma swamps, and long periods of darkness can easily destroy one's psychological defenses. If any accidents occur, the production team will be too late to rescue them.
"If you're not careful, you could lose your life here. I hope that those players with weak constitutions and poor adaptability will exercise according to their abilities and cut their losses in time."
"If you withdraw now, each person will receive an initial bonus of 20,000 yuan and be sent back to China safely."
The staff paused for a few seconds. "But those who choose to continue and successfully complete the rainforest map will receive a cumulative prize of 5 million yuan."
"per capita."
Before he finished speaking, there was an uproar.
The difference between 20,000 and 5 million is really huge.
The contestant who was originally timid and wanted to quit suddenly became determined again.
If I go back, I will be a poor guy. If I stay here, at least there is a glimmer of hope.
Life is nothing but a gamble. You come into this world penniless. If you win, you will get great success and fortune. If you lose, you will lose your life.
There is only one stake, and that is yourself.
In the end, there were 196 people at the gathering point. Excluding 8 people who were forced to withdraw due to injuries and 25 people who voluntarily withdrew, a total of 163 people chose to "continue".
"Master Li, are you really not going back?"
The staff member stopped Li Xingyan and said in an official tone: "Mr. Lu and Ms. Li both hope that you can stop here. This is also my main task here."
"What do you mean?" Li Xingyan frowned, "Aren't you here to save those seriously ill people?"
Of course not.
All the contestants here have signed a waiver agreement, and whether they live or die has nothing to do with the production team.
On the contrary, more casualties will only make the show more interesting.
If Li Xingyan hadn't happened to have a small accident, they wouldn't have shown up at all.
"Your life is the most precious to us."
I thought it would be very useful, but unexpectedly Li Xingyan flew into a rage, "This is a human life! It's not a tool for you to gamble and have fun with!"
The staff member smiled and bowed slightly, saying, "It's a matter of willingness. We're not coercing anyone."
I've heard in the circle a long time ago that some programs are disguised as human nature experiments and competitive games, and they specialize in making fun of the suffering of the lower class for the upper class around the world to watch.
Li Xingyan originally thought it was just a fairy tale, but he didn't expect it to really exist.
Since his life is so precious, then...
If he stays here, Titti will be safer.
What's more, that group of people have already set their sights on her.
"I won't leave," Li Xingyan warned, "You must treat the injured players and send them back home safely."
She is truly a naive and innocent girl who grew up being pampered.
But it’s okay, his identity will only increase the stakes.
The son of China's richest man and a group of desperadoes, who wouldn't be looking forward to this gimmick?
The staff nodded and finally asked, "Are you sure?"
–
"I'm sure."
Hearing Li Xingyan's decisive reply, Shen Tai stood up with a smile and took the initiative to extend his right hand, "Master Li, it's a pleasure to work with you?"
His eyes swept over the smiling tiger, scanning them one by one.
Xiang Xiong with a playful look in his eyes, Wu Guanghao with a sullen face, Chen Rong who was indifferent and taciturn, and...
Zhang Jingmin stood at the back with a worried look on her face.
“It’s a pleasure to work with you.”
Li Xingyan touched it perfunctorily with his fingertips, then quickly withdrew his hand and put it behind his back. "As we agreed before, you will teach Ye Xuan a lesson for me and make him embarrass himself in front of Ti... in front of everyone."
"When you have time, beat up that non-mainstream guy with colorful hair and tell him to stay away from Yunti."
"Don't worry about the reward. You'll be indispensable later."
Thinking of something, Li Xingyan added sternly, "The most important thing is that none of you are allowed to have any ideas about Yun Ti."
Chen Tai looked at him deeply, then lowered his head and smiled, "Okay."
＊
Last night in the stilt house.
The atmosphere was no longer as relaxed and harmonious as when we first arrived, and it started to become subtle.
Those who left were those who were interested in curiosity and jokes. Most of those who could choose to stay wanted to give it a try.
The stronger the obsession, the heavier the mind.
Even in the dark, countless people were staring at Yun Ti's pistol.
Someone joked: "Is this gun real or fake? It's just to scare people, right?"
"Why would you reward us with a gun? Could it be... that you want us to kill each other?"
Yun Ti couldn't understand what people were saying.
But he would cooperate and raise his gun, aim at the other person's head, and reply seriously: "I've never used it before, why not give it a try?"
Um……
He looks like a naive little murderer.
Gradually, no one dared to say anything more.
After all, the little sister really has something on her.
The night is long, and we light lamps to prolong the day.
inside the house.
Banlie took out a pair of rusty scissors from some drawer and insisted that Yunti help him cut his hair.
Ming Jiaojiao sat on the sofa, eating melon seeds. "It's time to get a haircut. This hairstyle is sloppy and old-fashioned. I still can't see what you look like."
She is now so relaxed that she doesn't look like a female star anymore.
"Why don't you go to Ye Xuan's place, but always stick to your sister?" Ban Lie has been unhappy with her for a long time.
Ever since I saved Ming Jiaojiao last time, it seems like she has become a different person. She always calls me "Brother Xuan" and acts like she can't walk independently without him.
Now, not only is Ye Xuan not mentioned, even looking at him is unnecessary.
Instead, he suddenly became very warm towards Yun Ti.
This behavior reminded Banlue of the common parasitic plants in the Serengeti.
It chooses a tree to inhabit, climbs and grows on it, sucks and squeezes the host until it is on the verge of death, then looks for another host and continues to climb upwards.
"My legs are on my body, I can go wherever I want, what's it to you?"
Ming Jiaojiao was also very blunt when she was confronting people. "Ren Yunti didn't say anything, so why are you pointing fingers? If you don't like it, then just leave. Do you really think you are his brother?"
Banlie suppressed his smile and raised his eyes, but there was no warmth in them.
The sudden and terrifying air pressure made Ming Jiaojiao's heart stop for a moment, and the unfinished words were stuck in her throat.
The next second, Yun Ti grasped the handle of the scissors and hit Banlie directly on the head.
The other person's eyes instantly cleared, and he looked up aggrievedly, "I'm sorry, sister."
"Be quiet and don't move."
Yunti didn't know how to cut hair. Wherever the knife touched, there was a clicking sound. She almost cut Banlie's ears several times.
The child remained silent.
Ming Jiaojiao was the sharpest-eyed person. "Hey, hey, hey, it's bleeding!"
Now that's good, he stopped cracking melon seeds and didn't hold a grudge. He started to act as a supervisor and directed Yunti to cut her hair.
Banlie complained in his heart: "I like any hairstyle my sister has."
The implication is that you don't want to get involved.
Oh, your kindness is taken for granted.
Ming Jiaojiao rolled her eyes and turned her head to the side. "You don't have a damaged hair, you have a damaged brain."
The last cut fell on the bangs covering Banlie’s eyes.
With this cut, the sky brightened.
Looking at himself in the mirror, the corners of Banlie's mouth twitched slightly, "Good, good-looking."
It's like being licked by a cow. It's uneven and of varying thicknesses.
Yun Ti was quite satisfied. At least she had cut off all those annoying colorful highlights, revealing her entire forehead, and her whole face looked much fresher.
"Ming Jiaojiao, what do you think?"
Ming Jiaojiao, who was sulking but obedient, looked over doubtfully.
He was stunned for a few seconds.
It seems... it's really not bad.
She was referring to the face.
He has sharp eyebrows, bright eyes, strong facial features, dark skin, and a rare youthful air.
The strands of hair prickled his hair, so Bantie stood up, took off his coat, and lowered his head to brush it off randomly with his hands.
The black vest fit his body perfectly, revealing his strong muscles as his hands moved.
"It's alright."
Ming Jiaojiao hurriedly looked away, and for Yun Ti's sake, she gave a perfunctory compliment: "You can be a male model."
"A male model? It's hard to even be a steamed bun!"
A loud voice interrupted at the perfect moment.
Li Xingyan walked quickly through the door.
Very anxious, but I don't know what I'm anxious about.
He didn't look at Yun Ti, but glanced at the train with disdain, as if blinded by its ugliness, and exclaimed, "Ouch."
"This face feels like it's going to bounce back slowly if I punch it. Can you please take the steamed buns to the food section?"
The author has something to say:
----------------------
There is no doubt about it! Li Xingyan is really naive and innocent. He grew up in a greenhouse and has never seen any bad people. He can't imagine that there are really people who are so cruel and evil. The young master's ideas are too simple and naive. He is just playing house. He thinks that if he "associates" with these people, they will really obey his orders [clown][clown]
