Chapter 11 Quarrel

After the division of the teams was settled, everyone started to prepare lunch. Earlier, Nie Yumeng and Guan Qi had caught a sea fish and picked up some shrimps, crabs and conches, which were not enough for six adults. But now there were only five people. Although they still couldn't eat enough, everyone got more. It could be said that Jiang Wu's departure was a good thing.

Everyone understood each other tacitly, and no one asked Jiang Wu when dividing the food.

In the cameraman's lens, on one side, Wu Jiayou and his friends were eating around the fire, and on the other side, Jiang Wu was sitting alone in the corner, looking very miserable.

Jiang Wu's photographer is called Da Liu, a tall man from Northeast China. He couldn't help but ask Jiang Wu, "Aren't you hungry?"

"Not bad." Jiang Wu said.

The photographer thought he was just holding on, but the next moment Jiang Wu stood up and walked towards the jungle.

The other team looked over subconsciously, and Bi Yan couldn't help but shout, "It's dangerous to go into the jungle alone."

Jiang Wu paused slightly, said "hmm" softly, and then walked into the woods without looking back.

The team behind him didn't say anything. Everyone knew that Jiang Wu was going to find food. After all, he hadn't eaten since he came to the island, and he also went to find water with Ji Ruoxuan. How could he not be hungry?

As if to alleviate everyone's guilt, Nie Yumeng said, "In fact, if six people eat together, no one will be full, so ordering food is the same as not eating."

Wu Jiayou followed suit and said, "Let's take a break and go find food in the afternoon."

Everyone nodded.

An hour later, Jiang Wucai returned empty-handed. Wu Jiayou and others noticed this and thought he didn't find any food. It was not surprising, after all, it took two hours to go to the nearest food point and back. How could he get any food in just one hour?

The director team was also afraid that Jiang Wu would faint from hunger if he continued like this, so they used the intercom to notify the cameraman Da Liu, asking him to persuade Jiang Wu not to really faint from hunger and delay the filming.

However, Liu was silent for a long time before he said in a complicated tone, "Director, don't worry about him. He... can't be hungry."

Not only was he not hungry, he was also fuller than those people over there.

"Huh?" Yang Chen was confused.

After the rest, it was already 3:30 in the afternoon. It got dark quickly on the island. Wu Jiayou and others had originally planned to go to the woods to hunt rabbits or something, but in order to get back to the camp before dark, they only brought back some wild fruits.

Of course, a few wild fruits were not enough to fill them up, and as they were afraid of being too hungry to sleep at night, they quickly crawled into their sleeping bags to rest as soon as night fell.

The next morning, Wu Jiayou and others were still awakened by hunger and had to get up, wash up and prepare to find food. However, as soon as they walked to the beach, they saw a leisurely figure sitting at a wooden table, drinking tea, eating breakfast and admiring the sea view.

The five of them were stunned. Looking at the food on the table, they almost thought they were hallucinating from hunger.

Guan Qi was the first to react. He looked at the director team with anger and hunger, "Director! What's going on? Where did he get the food? This is cheating!"

Ji Ruoxuan had already come to Jiang Wu's table, his eyes glowing with hunger.

"The program organizer is absolutely fair and just. This table of food was redeemed by Jiang Wuxiang's program team."

Yang Chen raised his trumpet and announced, "At seven o'clock this morning, Jiang Wu had already found the first token and exchanged it for a table of breakfast and tea."

"A token?!"

Ji Ruoxuan looked at Jiang Wu in shock, "Brother Jiang, how did you find the token? The clue was so vague, how did you know where it was?"

"Left Jiao Li, right Jiao Jiang, refers to Jiao among the twenty-eight constellations. Jiao belongs to the wood element and is a dragon. It is the first of the seven eastern constellations and has two stars like the two horns of a dragon. There happens to be a forest in the east of the map given by the program team. There are three largest trees in the forest, which correspond to the three stars of Jiao. The token is under the middle tree."

Jiang Wu drank his tea elegantly and said slowly, "I told you that you can crack it by just looking at the map for reference."

The faces of several people changed again and again when they heard this. Jiang Wu did say that, but no one believed him. Even Wu Jiayou was unwilling to take out the map.

Ji Ruoxuan sighed with tears in her eyes, "You are so amazing, Brother Jiang, you even know about the stars... I should have listened to you earlier."

Several people felt uncomfortable after hearing what he said. After all, who could have thought that such a notoriously clueless person could know so much and even have such a good brain.

Wu Jiayou looked unhappy. After all, he not only rejected Jiang Wu, but also deliberately mocked him. Now it was like a slap in the face. He missed a big meal in vain. Their hunger yesterday was simply a joke.

Several people watched Jiang Wu eating his food carelessly, their stomachs growling with hunger.

Nie Yumeng couldn't help but shout, "I'm so hungry..."

"Me too."

“…”

In the end, Nie Yumeng was the first to speak. She walked up to Jiang Wu and asked, "Jiang Wu, I'm so hungry. Can you give me some food? Just a little bit. I'm so hungry."

Jiang Wu didn't even look at her, "I remember we were divided into two teams."

"But we were on the same team before."

“…”

Wu Jiayou frowned and said, "I was the one who offended you yesterday. It has nothing to do with Yumeng."

Jiang Wu raised his eyebrows, "Did I say I had something to do with her?"

"Then why don't you want to share your food with her?"

"Why should I share my food with her?"

"Because..." Wu Jiayou paused, "Isn't this the most basic compassion of a human being? What reason do you need?"

"Really?" Jiang Wu shook the teacup in his hand and lowered his eyes and asked, "Then why didn't anyone give me any food yesterday?"

Several people's faces froze.

Nie Yumeng said to Jiang Wu in a soft voice, "It wasn't enough in the first place. Even if we shared it with you, you wouldn't be full. Besides, at that time... we didn't dare to talk to you."

Wu Jiayou said with a straight face, "I apologize for what happened yesterday. Can you give us some food?"

Jiang Wu said nothing.

Bi Yan said softly, "Or share some with the two girls."

Nie Yumeng said pitifully, "I have low blood sugar. I will feel dizzy when I am hungry..."

Jiang Wu was about to speak when Guan Qi suddenly snorted and turned away, "No need, I don't believe I can die of hunger!"

Jiang Wu raised the corner of his mouth, "Forget it then."

Nie Yumeng gave Guan Qi a grim look.

Having said this, Wu Jiayou no longer insisted and sat down in the open space opposite with the others with a sullen face.

Ji Ruoxuan wanted to follow him, but he was so hungry that he said pitifully, "Brother Jiang, I'm so hungry. Can I borrow some food from you and return it to you later?"

He said this without any hope. After all, he had not shown mercy to such lovely girls like Jiang Wulian and Nie Yumeng just now. What right did he, a grown man, have to do that?

However, what was unexpected was that Jiang Wu actually nodded, "Okay."

Ji Ruoxuan was overjoyed and shouted excitedly, "Thank you, Brother Jiang! Brother Jiang, I love you so much!"

Nie Yumeng, who was not far away, saw this scene and glared at Guan Qi hatefully. If this woman hadn't been pretending to be noble just now, Jiang Wu would definitely have given it to her!

Nie Yumeng bit her lip, the more she thought about it, the more unwilling she became. She walked to Jiang Wu again and said coquettishly, "Jiang Wu, can I borrow some from you? Anyway, you guys can't eat anymore, so it won't be a waste if you give it to me."

"You're late."

"It's not too late. Don't you have another cake?"

Nie Yumeng looked at the pile of exquisite pastries on the table and couldn't help swallowing.

"I have a use for this cake."

"This cake won't last long..."

Before she finished speaking, seven or eight birds suddenly flew over the jungle above their heads and landed in front of them. They had gray feathers except for a single black feather on their heads, like a phoenix feather.

Jiang Wu picked up the remaining cakes on the plate, crushed them into foam, and sprinkled them on the ground. The flock of birds immediately flapped their wings and flew up.
