Chapter 24 Chapter 24 Love rivals are like cockroaches in the house
Ye Xuan, who was leading the team in front, had already reached the shore safely and was standing in the forest waving to everyone.
"No danger, speed up!"
The contestants who fell behind felt more at ease and rushed forward impatiently.
It feels so uncomfortable to soak in the mud. I always feel like there is something at the bottom of the water, staring at me hungrily.
Several people quickly surpassed Yun Ti.
Going further and further.
Less than two meters away from reaching the shore.
The smile on Ye Xuan's face suddenly froze.
He lowered his eyes, his expression slightly gloomy, "Don't move."
Several people froze in an instant, standing still, "W-what..."
Ye Xuan put his index finger on his lips, signaling them to be quiet, and his other hand quietly covered his waist.
"Ah! Is that a snake?"
The person standing next to Ye Xuan also noticed something unusual and screamed.
The people in the quagmire panicked instantly and ran away.
In a panic, mud and water splashed everywhere, turning the calm water bottom upside down in an instant.
The long snake was disturbed and began to attack indiscriminately.
“Ahhhhh it, it, it brushed past my legs! Ahhhhh what a disgusting touch!”
"Brother Ye, Brother Ye! Save me!"
"I think... I was bitten!"
Some people turned around and ran towards Yun Ti, "Sister Ti! Help!"
Even though we were hundreds of meters apart, I knew it was useless.
In the extreme chaos, Ye Xuan concentrated and calmed his mind, without being disturbed by the outside world at all.
Observe the snake's trajectory and hold the saber tightly until a hint of light appears on the water surface again.
He leaped into the mire, raised his hand, and thrust it in fiercely.
In an instant, a pool of blood surfaced, dyeing the water red.
A two-meter-long snake was hit directly at the vital point, killing it with one blow.
The people on the shore gasped as if they were watching a hero's triumphant return, and only burst into cheers when Ye Xuan dragged the snake head ashore.
Not long after, Yun Ti and others arrived safely.
A fat and long snake was lying neatly on the ground.
Li Xingyan and He Junzhuo were so scared that they almost ran away in panic.
I only knew that there was a small incident at the front and the battle was fierce, but I didn’t expect it to be so intense!
"Brother Ye, will I really not die..."
The contestant who was bitten by the snake was still wailing with tears in his eyes.
Ye Xuan shook his head helplessly, but remained patient, "No, I told you, that snake is not poisonous."
Walking to the snake's corpse, Ye Xuan knelt on one knee and expertly turned the snake over. He gestured, "The back of the head is brownish-yellow, with black scales and grooves forming a "king" pattern. This is an Elaphe king snake. Domestically, it's called a rat snake."
As the saying goes, if you see rat snakes for every mile, there are no venomous snakes for ten miles. Not only are they non-venomous, but their aggressive nature, agility, and strong attack power make them the natural enemies of most venomous snakes.
"Look, Ti Ti is here. If you don't believe me, you can ask her."
Ye Xuan thought Yun Ti should know this kind of snake, after all, the little girl has always had great magical powers.
Faced with the sudden words, Li Xingyan secretly complained: high-end loading.
He didn't say it earlier or later, but waited until Ti Ti came before pretending to show off his knowledge. Who was he performing for?
Forget it, the omnipotent and smart Ti Ti must be able to do all of these with ease.
Unexpectedly, Yun Ti propped up her chin with her hand and circled around the snake in a serious manner, "So fat, it looks delicious."
Baobao hugged her neck and his stomach began to growl.
Although snake meat is not on its menu.
Tearful contestant:?
"Sister Ti! I'm almost scared to death, and you're still here debating whether to steam or grill it. Is that right?" The contestant gave her a trusting look. "Quick, tell me this snake isn't poisonous. You're the one I trust the most right now!"
Yun Ti, who was entrusted with an important task, thought for half a second and said, "I don't know him."
He has fought wolves, understood the weather, and cut vines as thick as arms, but there is still something Yun Ti doesn't know?
I don't believe it...
"But it's definitely not poisonous." Yun Ti was astonished.
"Wow, how did you judge that?!"
"Is this difficult?" Yun Ti glanced at the man calmly. "You haven't died in such a long time. If you are really poisonous, then you are quite difficult to kill."
He was screaming so loudly and excitedly, the poison would have spread rapidly.
It was originally a statement that was extremely unemotional and could easily cause bad luck to others.
But when the man heard it, he instantly became excited, "Yes! Yes!"
He looked weak and dying just now, but now he can stand up, hold Yun Ti's hand and shout "miracle doctor".
Li Xingyan was so angry that his face turned green.
Good boy, good boy, you are really showing your true colors when the situation is clear, taking advantage of the chaos, right?
"Get out of my way!"
A group of poor humans who passed Yunti's obedience test and were successfully domesticated.
Amidst the laughter and scolding, a group led by Cui Da also arrived.
After nodding to Ye Xuan, he subconsciously asked Yun Ti, "Are you okay?"
Who among those standing here can be bad?
It's nothing more than a straight man who has been holding it in all night and is trying to find an opportunity to say a few more words.
Li Xingyan just felt numb: love rivals are like cockroaches in the house. If you find one, there are countless more hiding in the dark.
You can’t kill them all, you can’t kill them all!
＊
The forest stretches as far as the eye can see and the humidity is extremely high. After walking a few steps, your clothes will be soaked by the moisture.
But everyone is equally sloppy and no one looks down on anyone else.
They gathered together to light a bonfire, share snake meat, and vividly reenact Ye Xuan's heroic act of beheading the giant snake, praising him for his vast knowledge from his many battles.
Li Xingyan rolled his eyes upon hearing this.
Fortunately, Ti Ti took Bao Bao out to find food, and fortunately, Ye Xuan went to explore the way, otherwise he would really be afraid that these leaf blowers would make Ti Ti and that guy fall in love with each other...
He gets excited after just a few seconds.
Some people talked about why they participated in this competition, their miserable families, how their girlfriends/wives cheated on them because they had no money, and the source of their hatred for being ignored, abandoned, and betrayed by society...
Several of them called each other brothers and cried bitterly, as if they had found the soulmate who understood them best in the world.
Li Xingyan was disgusted by this: he blamed the society, the family, and even the women, yet he cleared himself of all charges. What kind of man is he?
Perhaps the young master's contempt was too conspicuous, and it hurt the "loser's" most vulnerable bottom line.
Several people pointed at Li Xingyan and said bluntly, "Master Li, don't look at us like that. Of all people, you are the one who is looked down upon the most."
"Yes, you are a child of destiny, rich and powerful, and admired by everyone, but that's because you have good parents. Without them, what would you be?"
"Shang Zhitianwen's lower limbs are paralyzed. If you didn't have the money to hire so many people to clean up your mess, you wouldn't even be able to crawl here!"
"Why do you look down on us? What right do you have to laugh at us? Ask the people around you, if you don't give them some benefits, will they follow you wholeheartedly?"
Curse as much as you want. Li Xingyan remained unmoved.
He never cared about how others described him because he knew that he was not as bad as others said.
As a junior student in the directing department of one of the world's top film academies, Li Xingyan's artistic talent is unquestionable, as the works he shot during his time at school have been shortlisted for the Cannes Film Festival.
But obviously, in an environment of absolute military competition, talking about these things is just like a summer insect talking about ice.
Therefore, Li Xingyan disdained to argue with such provocation.
Not only that, he also stopped the angry He Junzhuo and Ma Yuming, showing his magnanimity.
But when this action happens to the scum, it becomes an insult.
"It's useless, and you're also a love-brained person, following Sister Ti around all the time. If I were to ask you, you're such a loser! How could Ren Yunti be so blind as to choose you over Brother Ye?"
...?
Just like the weather in a rainforest, the atmosphere in a group is also unpredictable and can change at any time.
The former is controlled by nature's photosynthesis, while the latter is instigated by the mob of society.
When Yunti came back, she clearly felt that the atmosphere was wrong.
The contestants who were sitting together when they left were now divided into two camps.
Li Xingyan sat alone under a tree, covering his face with his hands.
He Junzhuo, Ma Yuming and Ming Jiaojiao stood not far away, looking worried.
Seeing her coming, they all came forward, wanting to say something but stopping themselves.
"What's wrong?" Yun Ti asked.
Baobao climbed up the vines, followed the tree trunk, and jumped onto Li Xingyan's shoulder.
She tilted her head and moved closer to him.
Li Xingyan then turned his face to the side, and gently pushed Baobao's head away with his hands.
Banle observed for two seconds and concluded: "He was beaten."
Boom boom squeaked, "That's right!"
"I don't!"
Li Xingyan was anxious to save his image and turned around.
There was a red and swollen spot on the forehead, the corner of the mouth was broken and bleeding, and the cheekbone was faintly blue.
"I, I fought back..." Li Xingyan muttered softly, "Don't think I'm such a loser..."
"Who hit me?"
Yunti took off her backpack and threw it to Banlie.
Following He Junzhuo's silent gesture, she walked straight over.
He asked condescendingly, "Is that you?"
The man was sitting on the ground bragging to his companions.
Faced with such an oppressive beautiful face that suddenly appeared, he was stunned at first, and then realized that it was Yun Ti.
He and Yun Ti had never met before, and he always watched from afar. He only knew that she was very aggressive and had dark skin. He thought she was a plain girl, but he didn't expect her to have a unique charm.
Looking at it this way, that weak pretty boy is even less worthy.
"Heh, that coward Li Xingyan complained? It's me..."
"What's wrong?" I haven't said yet.
Yun Ti kicked him in the chest, knocking him over.
A whip kick to the forehead, a slap to the corner of the mouth, and a punch to the cheekbone.
Three places, no more, no less, done in one go, and that’s it.
It happened in five seconds.
It happened so fast that others haven't come to their senses yet.
"Who dares to touch Li Xingyan again?"
Yun Ti pulled the pistol from her pocket, twirled it between her fingertips, and pointed it at the man who collapsed on the ground. "Don't blame me for being rude."
This is the essential line taught by He Junzhuo to show off. I heard that it is even more powerful when used with a pistol or a saber.
Look at everyone’s facial expressions and feedback.
What Teacher He said is true.
After Yun Ti left, the others were still frightened.
When sitting together in groups of three or four, they couldn't help but whisper to each other.
Although Sister Ti is very powerful, she is also very protective of her own people.
Well, the contestants who have been following her are blessed.
But...is falling in love with a vase a necessary setting for Mary Sue?
No matter how Sister Ti looks at it, she and Brother Ye are a better match, right?
–
On the other side, the "evil group" also witnessed this wonderful drama.
Chen Tai laughed to himself, raised his arm, and placed it on Wu Guanghao's shoulder, "It's quite interesting, isn't it?"
He pinched the soft flesh on the back of his neck, sometimes lightly, sometimes heavily, and said in a tone so light that it was almost inaudible, "This won't happen again."
Xiang Xiong raised his eyebrows, glanced at Chen Tai, then looked at Li Xingyan and Yun Ti.
Everyone has a different expression.
Only Zhang Jingmin stared silently at the gun in Yun Ti's hand for a few seconds, then looked away.
