Just as Li Yinsheng was about to head home.
She suddenly heard the sound of chickens crowing coming from the top of a pine tree.
The pine tree was lush and leafy. She carefully approached the tree and looked up at the top. She saw two grouse preening each other, seemingly unaware of the human presence below.
Sunlight filters through the dense pine needles, dappling their colorful feathers and adding a touch of warmth and harmony to this tranquil scene.
Li Yinsheng drew his bow and took an arrow. Just as he was aiming at one of the grouse, he thought for a moment, then took another arrow from the quiver. He placed the two arrows about ten centimeters apart, drew the bow, and aimed at the two pheasants on the pine tree.
If one is hit, the other will surely be scared away. Therefore, this time Li Yinsheng wants to fire two arrows at the same time to ensure that he can capture both grouse at the same time and prevent either of them from escaping.
She took a deep breath, steadied herself, and fixed her gaze intently on her target. Even the wind seemed to hold its breath; the whole world was silent, awaiting the moment of explosion.
Li Yinsheng lightly released the bowstring, and two arrows shot out like arrows from a bow, cutting through the air with unstoppable force, accurately striking the two grouse respectively.
Almost simultaneously, two soft "plop" sounds rang out, and two grouse fell to the ground.
However, the moment Li Yinsheng fired two arrows simultaneously and hit both pheasants, the live stream audience erupted in cheers. A flood of comments poured in, the screen densely filled with exclamations and praise.
"Damn! Fatty's awesome, she hit two pheasants with two arrows at the same time."
"That was an amazing move by a woman!"
"I'm so impressed by this chubby girl, I don't even need to lean on the wall."
"Fatty? She's clearly a lucky charm who could rely on luck to make a living, but now she insists on relying on her skills. How can our foreign friends compare?"
"This level of accuracy is even better than the professionals'! I'm truly impressed!"
"Oh my god! This girl's archery skills are amazing!"
In an instant, Li Yinsheng's name seemed to be enchanted, quickly spreading across various social media platforms and becoming the focus of heated discussions. Her seemingly casual two arrows not only captivated viewers in the live stream and many foreign friends, but also ignited the curiosity and passion of countless people for traditional archery.
As the topic continued to gain traction, Li Yinsheng's live stream subscriber count skyrocketed, even attracting the attention of some well-known archery athletes and coaches from abroad.
They left messages expressing their desire to witness the charm of this "mysterious oriental archer" in person, and some even extended invitations to exchange skills and techniques.
As for Li Yinsheng's former teammates who participated in "Survival on a Desert Island," Huang Xiaoming, Liu Yifei, Zhao Liying, Zhang Yixing, Li Xiang, and others, they were all amazed to see Li Yinsheng launch two projects at once, and cheered for her happiness.
........
Continuing to walk forward, stopping and starting intermittently, Li Yinsheng didn't gain anything else besides occasionally shooting squirrels and two grouse.
Instead, in a dense thicket of grass, they discovered a patch of wild blueberries. The number of blueberries was quite large, and they could fill several baskets if they picked them all.
Li Yinsheng was overjoyed. She carefully parted the grass, afraid of disturbing the tranquility of the blueberry patch. Her fingers gently touched the round and plump fruits, which were covered with a thin layer of white frost and shimmered with an alluring luster in the sunlight.
I memorized the location, glanced at the sky, and realized it was well past noon; I had to hurry back.
"I'm back." By the time Li Yinsheng returned to the place where they had built their shelter, the sunlight had softened.
At this moment, Wu Jing, Bai Jingting, and Peng Yuyan did not cut down trees or dig foundations. Instead, they lit a fire and sat or lay down, all with relaxed and expectant expressions on their faces, clearly waiting for Li Yinsheng to return.
"Hey, Fatty, you're finally back! We're starving! Wow, so many squirrels, and two pheasants!" The most lively one, Yang Chaoyue, was the first to jump up, waving and shouting at her, his eyes sparkling as if he could immediately see the delicious food in front of him.
Yang Chaoyue went to greet Li Yinsheng. When she saw the string of squirrels hanging from Li Yinsheng's waist, Yang Chaoyue's eyes widened so much that they almost popped out of their sockets.
“We won’t go hungry today,” Wu Jing said with a smile, still whittling a wooden fork in her hand. It seemed she had anticipated that Li Yinsheng would hunt some game, and the fork was meant to be used for grilling.
"I caught two fish today too, so I cooked them all in one pot," Li Qin said quickly when she saw Li Yinsheng looking at her.
"We'll get rid of all these squirrels and grouse; we'll eat half of them at noon and the other half at night."
A few days ago, we had to spend a lot of effort building a shelter, so we couldn't let people go hungry.
"I won't go out this afternoon either. I'll help Chaoyue build the temporary shelter first, and then I'll help you guys." Li Yinsheng handed the grouse and squirrel she had hunted back to Chaoyue and Li Qin, and told them to take care of them.
She also took out nuts from several of her pockets.
"Fatty, did you empty the squirrel's can of nuts?! How did you find so many nuts?" Peng Yuyan was shocked when he saw Li Yinsheng pulling out handful after handful of nuts.
Wu Jing and Bai Jingting kept smiling.
In "Man vs. Wild," nuts provide a boost of energy, giving them more confidence for the upcoming survival challenges.
Nuts are an indispensable and valuable food source for survival in the wild because of their high calorie content and rich nutrients.
A small handful of nuts can provide the body with the basic energy it needs for a day, and it's also filling.
After processing the grouse and squirrel, skewer them and roast them. They will soon sizzle and ooze oil. Sprinkle salt on them, and then gently make a few slits in the meat with a knife to allow the salt and oil produced during roasting to penetrate more fully into every muscle, adding flavor.
Under the firelight, the golden-yellow outer skin gradually became crispy, while the inside remained tender and juicy, and the air was filled with a mouthwatering aroma, a deliciousness born from the union of nature and fire.
Yang Chaoyue, Li Qin, and Li Yinsheng skillfully flipped the grouse and squirrels on the grill, ensuring that each side was heated evenly until the skin turned a perfect caramel color.
As time went on, the surrounding air was filled not only with the aroma of food, but also with a hint of smoky charcoal, the two intertwining to create an indescribable temptation.
Bai Jingting, Wu Jing, Peng Yuyan, and the other men had been doing hard labor all morning, and now, smelling the aroma of meat, their stomachs started rumbling.
"You can eat now." Li Yinsheng handed a roasted squirrel to Bai Jingting, Wu Jing, and Peng Yuyan.
