"Just now, the leader and I explored the area around the shelter and found a dozen or twenty kinds of edible wild vegetables, a patch of twenty or so yam plants, a flock of about ten pheasants, and some wild fruits."
There are many kinds of vegetables, and although the quantity seems large, they are actually not enough to last long.
No matter how much wild vegetables you eat, they don't keep you full for long and are burned off quickly, so it's better to eat a fish or a chicken.
"So, our current food source is mainly the sea. As for Jinsha Island, we will try to expand our search area to find new food sources in the future." Li Yinsheng told everyone what she had discovered so far.
Everyone nodded in agreement with Li Yinsheng's words. They all knew that food was crucial for survival on a deserted island. Although there were plenty of wild vegetables and fruits on the island, these were not enough to meet their long-term survival needs. They had to find more food sources to ensure their survival.
Seeing everyone's reaction, Li Yinsheng breathed a slight sigh of relief. She knew that the survival challenge on this island had only just begun, and they had to unite and face it together to greatly extend their survival time on the island and have a chance to win the championship.
"Teacher Li, Fatty, what are we going to do next?" Zhang Yixing, always quick to respond, followed up on Li Yinsheng's question.
"So, what we need to do next is to finish the shelter completely before dark tomorrow, and then make modifications as time goes on and the situation improves."
We'll go spearfishing in the sea later. First, we'll check the seabed conditions and the types of fish. If the chances of finding food are low, then we'll need to build a boat to go deep-sea fishing.
Finally, we need to expand our search area to find more food sources to ensure our survival on the deserted island and extend our time there,” Li Yinsheng continued.
“Okay! Fatty, we’ll do as you say.” Zhang Yixing nodded in agreement.
Li Yinsheng looked at Zhang Yixing and nodded inwardly. She knew that although Zhang Yixing was usually talkative, he was very reliable in crucial moments. He was able to respond positively to her and was hardworking, which was quite good.

"This chubby girl is becoming more and more like a leader. Even Li Xiang, the wilderness survival expert, can't compare to her."
"Group A still has a clear division of labor and a sense of crisis."
"Fatty, while that nickname sounds a bit teasing, her performance today was undeniable. She not only has excellent physical attributes, but more importantly, she possesses strong leadership and teamwork skills. Humble yet hardworking, Group A has a pretty good chance of winning," someone predicted.
"That's right. Although Li Xiang is a wilderness survival expert, he is clearly not as good as Fatty in terms of teamwork and leadership."
"The shelter set up by Group C is terrible! They've just left it like this, poor Dilraba and Tangtang are going to suffer because of it."
"From what we've seen so far, the shelters set up by Groups A, B, and D are doing alright, and they have a good chance of completing the hidden tasks announced by the production team."

The large-scale desert island survival variety show was broadcast live today, lasting twelve hours, and the number of online viewers exceeded 100 million.
At 8 PM, the number one trending topic on Weibo plummeted, with countless viewers and fans leaving comments.
"Wow! Cheng Yi has a great physique, he has six-pack abs."
"Wang Baoqiang and Xu Zheng are so funny, no wonder they've worked together on so many shows."
"Thank you for your hard work, Yifei and Yingbao, today."
That evening, on buses, subways, at home, and in university dormitories, many people watched the show "Survival on a Desert Island" on their phones, tablets, and TVs.
Many viewers were initially fans of certain celebrities, but after watching "Survival on a Desert Island," they discovered the most authentic side of their idols. There was no script or behind-the-scenes manipulation. They were no longer the glamorous stars on stage, but ordinary people who had to face the difficulties and challenges of survival on a desert island and had to work hard, otherwise they would have nowhere to live and no food to eat.
Their authentic performances revealed a side of them that was previously unknown to the audience, and allowed fans to gain a deeper understanding of their idols.
Within twelve hours of its premiere, the number of viewers not only surpassed 100 million, but also sparked various discussions, causing the show's popularity to soar. Viewers speculated and discussed the upcoming episodes, eagerly anticipating the contestants' survival challenges on the deserted island.
As night fell, the audience grew increasingly tense. They knew the deserted island was even more dangerous at night, and the contestants would face even greater challenges.
Spear fishing at night is a major challenge and a focal point for viewers.
"The production team just gave us three headlamps, so we can go into the sea to spearfish now."
"Although we all have high-definition cameras, filming at night is inconvenient and dangerous, so the production team gave us three headlamps. I imagine the other groups are in the same situation as us," Huang Xiaoming said, taking out three headlamps.
“Okay, let’s go out to sea and spearfish now,” Li Xiang said, taking one of the headlamps.
“Everyone here can swim, right?” Li Yinsheng took a headlamp and asked.
"I can."
"I can too."
"Me too, I can help with spearfishing later."
"Alright, since everyone can swim, let's go spearfishing tonight and show off our skills." Seeing that everyone was ready, Li Yinsheng waved her hand and took the lead in walking towards the sea.
When we arrived at the seaside, the night was as dark as ink, and the moonlight spilled onto the sea, making it shimmer like silver silk. The waves gently lapped against the shore, making a soft, lapping sound. In the distance, the occasional cry of a seabird added a touch of mystery to the tranquil night.
"I'll set an example first." Li Xiang put on his headlamp and jumped into the sea first. Holding a harpoon, he searched around the sea by the light of his headlamp.
Despite the headlamp's assistance, visibility was low at sea at night, but Li Xiang, with his years of experience, was still able to accurately spot the fish.
Under the illumination of the headlamps, various corals and seaweed in the sea appeared like something out of a dream. They swayed gracefully in the water, and some stones emitted a faint luster, creating a scene that was both dreamlike and ethereal.
Li Xiang swam cautiously, careful not to disturb the sea creatures. His eyes were sharp as an eagle's, scanning every nook and cranny of the coral reef, not missing a single spot where fish might be hiding. Suddenly, his gaze locked onto a coral reef nearby, where a group of colorful fish swam happily.
Li Xiang was overjoyed. He quickly adjusted his breathing and calmed his emotions, then pressed a certain part of the harpoon. The harpoon instantly sprang out, piercing towards a fish in blue. With a "thud," a plump fish was firmly pierced by the harpoon. It struggled to escape, but it was too late.
