Chapter 45: Parachuting into the Savanna
[Ahhh Yunti, that's enough! Stop doing those difficult special effects moves! Mommy is really scared! The Qiuqiu production team must treat our Tibao's tonic well and not let anything happen to her 555]
[Program team: I've tried really hard to be a good person, but you've single-handedly raised the rating of the program... Previously, viewers under 18 were prohibited from watching, but now the age limit has been raised to 21!]
[Isn't anyone praising Ming Jiaojiao? I feel like she's become much braver now than before. Honestly, I probably wouldn't dare to do it myself.]
[The sister-control type really doesn't give anyone a good look except Yun Ti... I'm really curious if they are really siblings? Also, who is Ming Qingyang? @明皎皎]
I think the biggest change is in Young Master Li, hahahaha. Did anyone notice how he was crying while operating the console with a cold face? He looked so cute and cool. Ugh, my XP is going crazy!!! I'm licking the screen like crazy!!!!!
Young Master Li probably didn't expect that when he received his first mission from his wife, he excitedly flew his helicopter over to show off, only to see his wife swinging on a cliff. Just imagine how horrified I would be...
[But I still appreciate his initial dismissive and arrogant attitude towards Yun Ti (dog head save my life)
…
Holding a tablet, He Junzhuo and Cui Da, who were sitting in the front and back rows, watched the live broadcast together. Several of them were laughing so hard at the comments.
They all looked at Captain Li who was fidgeting in the cockpit.
Yeah, very vivid.
But these comments are still quite kind.
Not only did he praise the main forces such as Yunti, Ye Xuan, Banlie and Cui Da, he also treated everyone else equally. Even the introverted and taciturn Kangzai was praised as "so worry-free that he seems as if he doesn't exist."
Of course, this is because they have missed the early stage of the show, when the barrage of insults turned into a bloody storm.
Having endured together until now, the audience has a natural filter for the ten remaining contestants, and almost treats this survival show as a group variety show.
As long as you don't do anything stupid and hold the team back, especially Yunti, everyone can basically accept it calmly.
However, Yun Ti was not interested in these things. She only cared about when she would get her 100 million bonus.
The helicopter arrived over the mountains.
The altitude position and wind direction are stable, and the automatic hovering system is turned on.
Xiaopang and Shouzi have almost recovered. Although Li Xingyan is doing well, they are still not confident in handing over their work entirely to the contestants.
Li Xingyan was replaced as a matter of course.
He had been unable to sit still for a long time.
From time to time, he stared at the only empty seat at the back - right next to Yun Ti.
Baobao and Xiaohei Pan are on top.
Originally, Banlie and Ye Xuan planned to sit here for convenience, but the seats were occupied by these two little guys first. When they saw people coming, they didn't show any intention of giving up their seats.
Now, as soon as Li Xingyan opened the cockpit door, the monkey and the snake unlocked it as if they had received an order and made room for it instantly.
"Daddy! We have fulfilled our mission! We have successfully completed the task!"
The two little guys are so smart. Ever since they heard the news that Li Xingyan said he could take them back to China, they have become more diligent and "filial" to their adoptive father.
No matter whether the dad is black or white, the one who can make them stay with their mother safely is a good dad!
"Hey, Master Li, you've taught them so well," Ma Yuming exclaimed in amazement. "No wonder they were lying there motionless just now. I guess they were saving a seat for you!"
Yun Ti was resting with her eyes closed and did not react at all.
Except for Banluo who still had a sullen face, everyone else smiled without saying a word.
"We're in the mountains now," Cui Da said half-jokingly, "We can find an open space to stop and send these two little guys back."
Baobao angrily jumped onto Li Xingyan's shoulder and cursed at Cui Da. Xiaohei also raised his green eyes and hissed.
That scene frightened Cui Da so much that he was speechless.
I've always known that Baobao and Xiaohei are quite human, but now seeing this, it seems they are not just human, they can completely understand what people say!
He Junzhuo groaned, "Why would you mess with them? They were all soldiers led by Sister Ti herself."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone smiled knowingly.
I have a new concrete understanding of the strength of the monkey and the snake.
It's very lively over there, but Yun Ti is resting with her eyes closed here, enjoying the peaceful days.
Li Xingyan turned his head and glared at He Junzhuo, then gestured to everyone else to be quiet.
Soon, everyone stopped talking. Some took a break, while others continued watching the live broadcast.
Li Xingyan's tightly furrowed brows relaxed as he stared silently at Yun Ti's profile, feeling extremely fond of her no matter how he looked at her.
Although Ti Ti didn't have time to boast about completing the task successfully, as long as they could stay together safely every day, it was already perfect enough.
Pursing his lips, he raised his hand, lowered the speed of the warm air above Yunti's head, and felt the comfort level with his palm.
Then he hugged Baobao on his legs to prevent it from moving around and disturbing Yunti's sleep.
After doing all this, he finally calmed down, moved his butt to the side, smelled the faint smell of snow and mud from the people around him, and closed his eyes peacefully.
Next to her, the girl's mouth curled up slightly and her breathing gradually became longer.
-
A few hours later, the helicopter hovered over the savanna.
["Survivor Game" production team: You have activated the Wasteland map. All contestants will be dropped into the game via parachute. Please note: This map is not timed. The first contestant to find the championship trophy placed by the production team will be considered a winner and receive the final 100 million RMB prize. All other contestants' accumulated rewards will be reset. We wish you a pleasant journey and a wonderful competition!]
Parachuting and dropping, searching for trophies, means that everyone is no longer bound by force.
People like Yun Ti, Ye Xuan, and Ban Lie who are capable can act on their own after reaching the ground.
Seeing everyone's different expressions, the thin man couldn't help but say, "Generally, when you're all parachuting together, the landing locations won't be too far apart. You can actually use the wristbands to locate each other and reunite."
The damn program crew is still trying to sow discord.
The thin guy thought the same as billions of viewers. He preferred to see everyone act collectively. What's more, his life was saved by them.
At the risk of being fired, he revealed that the trophy might be placed in the heart of the grassland.
With the rainy season approaching, the peak of animal migration, the grasslands are fraught with danger. For those like Li Xingyan and Ming Jiaojiao, who have no ability to protect themselves, being left alone is like being a wolf...er, a rabbit in the tiger's mouth.
However, the program team has set up accommodation near the skydiving area, so contestants who have no intention of competing for prize money can rest there.
It can be considered as a bit of "humanity".
After hearing the reminders from Skinny and Fatty, Cui Da said casually, "No matter where everyone lands, as long as the location is sent, he will go looking for them."
Hearing this, Ming Jiaojiao, Su Jian, Ma Yuming and others who did not jump with a parachute breathed a sigh of relief.
Li Xingyan secretly looked at Yun Ti, her expression remained calm and she did not express her opinion.
The same goes for Ye Xuan and Ban Lie.
…
The ground temperature on the grassland can reach over 30 degrees Celsius at noon.
After taking off their thick clothes in advance, according to the order called by Xiaopang, Li Xingyan, Ming Jiaojiao, Su Jian and others jumped first, and Ban Lie, Ye Xuan and Yun Ti jumped last.
In a panic, the hatch slid open.
A strong air current suddenly stirred up the gravel on the metal floor, and the wind blinded my eyes.
Without destruction, there is no construction.
Ming Jiaojiao closed her eyes tightly, and jumped down screaming with an attitude of "giving it her all".
Others followed one after another.
A hundred meters high in the sky, a large colorful umbrella exploded.
The parachute cord cuts through the wind's patterns, and eddies create flower-like folds on the nylon fabric.
It is very spectacular, both near and far.
Looking down at the umbrella-shaped flowers drifting down on the vast green grass until they turned into tiny dots, the thin man sighed, "Did you arrange them like this on purpose?"
Let those who are likely to lag behind jump first, giving them enough time to react. Let those with superior strength follow behind, fearing that once they hit the ground, they will use the time difference to forget the others.
Xiaopang said nothing.
"Are you worried about their team spirit, or..."
The thin man stretched his legs and said, "Are you also starting to think about tying up their team spirit?"
＊
Savanna.
As the name suggests, trees are relatively sparse.
In such a vast grassland, Li Xingyan and Ming Jiaojiao landed on two trees side by side one after another, and the parachute ropes got caught on the branches.
It was five or six meters above the ground, and I couldn't move or get down.
"What bad luck!" Ming Jiaojiao grumbled aggrievedly, "Why did I have to get stuck in a tree with this weakling young master?"
Now, no one can save anyone.
Li Xingyan was furious when he heard this. "Who do you think would want to be around you? I'm a weakling, so what? Are you that powerful?"
When weaklings meet weaklings, their eyes flash. The two of them started arguing, neither of them willing to move first to rescue.
"If Ti Ti comes, she will definitely save me first!" Li Xingyan was actually unsure, but he was unwilling to be at a disadvantage.
"Then if you have the guts, send Titi your location," Ming Jiaojiao said with disdain, "Let Titi see what a fool you are now."
Like a roast duck spinning on the grill, its mouth is still hard when it dies.
"Provoking me, huh? Oh, I won't be fooled. Just wait, I can find a way to get down there myself!"
Xiao Hei slowly crawled out of the backpack.
It was a little uncomfortable with the feeling of falling from skydiving, and its muddled head had just begun to clear up.
Seeing that his cheap dad was about to get down from the tree, he bared his fangs and started biting the parachute rope.
"Stupid Xiao Hei! What are you doing!?"
Feeling the rope begin to shake under the weight, Li Xingyan yelled, "You bit it off, are you trying to make me fall to my death?"
Xiao Hei was stunned, and as if to hide his guilty conscience, he used his snake tail to wrap around the crack in the rope that was slightly loose.
Stupid people raise stupid snakes.
Ming Jiaojiao sneered and looked away.
Not far away, He Junzhuo and Su Jian had already met up on the ground.
Soon, they noticed Li Xingyan and Ming Jiaojiao hanging on the tree.
"Wow!" He Junzhuo jumped up exaggeratedly, "What a magical tree, it actually produced two people!"
The key point is that the two people on the tree are as quiet as chickens, like they are dumb.
If he hadn't been born with foresight and liked to look up at the stars, he might have passed by here and not even noticed them.
However, there was nothing they could do even if they discovered it, as neither He Junzhuo nor Su Jian had the ability to climb the tree to rescue the person.
Su Jian smiled and shook his head, and sent real-time location information to Cui Da, Yun Ti, and Ye Xuan respectively.
The first to arrive were Ma Yuming and Kangzi.
Then came Cui Da.
Although Cui Da cannot climb trees as high as Yun Ti, he can climb three to five meters without any problem.
After easily rescuing Li Xingyan and Ming Jiaojiao, the seven of them sat side by side under a tree, waiting for the other three to arrive.
"Do we look like the seven calabash brothers now? Grandpa, Grandpa!"
He Junzhuo pinched his throat and shouted shrilly: "Grandpa Yunti! Grandpa Yexuan! Grandpa Banlie! Come quickly! You are all my uncles!"
Half an hour passed with laughter and chatter.
The wind blew through the grass, creating waves of heat. Waves of vultures flew away from the low thorn trees. Apart from them, there was no one around.
No one could laugh anymore.
