Chapter 69 Little Loli
After putting on makeup, the little Loli finished her first live broadcast of the day and walked out of the live broadcast room.
She stretched her arms and raised her chin: "What's so attractive about that Chu Qiao?"
Zhuangzhuang spoke without thinking: "It's just a publicity stunt. She's doing some wilderness survival thing, but she's holding a flint. Moreover, she's proudly showing off the number of her fans."
There was a small bump in the middle of the little Lolita's willow-shaped eyebrows, the corners of her mouth were slightly curved downwards, and her eyes were full of disdain.
A new anchor with only a few hundred thousand fans dares to show off publicly?
Thinking of this, the little Loli suddenly said, "I'm going to meet this guy."
At this time, Chu Qiao was continuing to search on the mountain, hoping to find some dry and flammable materials in a hidden place.
The vegetation on the back mountain was dense, with even more thorns. In order to find flint and tinder as soon as possible, Chu Qiao filled many white scratches on the back of his hand.
"Master Chu, there is a hole."
"Right next to you."
Remembering the drone's high-definition camera, netizens saw the cave faster than Chu Qiao.
The cave is next to a thorn bush and is about one meter high and wide.
Chu Qiao carefully threw a stone into the cave and quickly hid to the side, as if he was afraid that some monster would come out of it.
“Bang—”
There was the sound of a stone falling to the ground, but there was no movement inside.
Chu Qiao walked to the entrance of the cave, bent down, and was about to walk in.
"Master Chu, will there be any danger?"
"Don't go there. It's dark and scary."
Chu Qiao pointed at the rock wall and said, "This cave is not a natural cave."
"If it's a natural cave, don't enter it casually. Underground caves are usually connected to the sea, and when the water level rises, the cave will flood. Not only is the flooding threat, but the lack of oxygen caused by the flooding is also a dangerous factor. It's also very easy to get lost in underground caves, and when surviving in the wilderness, it's a dangerous place that no one wants to touch."
Chu Qiao pointed to two unclear marks at the cave entrance and said, "Here and here, these are traces of artificial excavation. It's just that they have been weathered over the years and are no longer visible."
After saying that, Chu Qiao walked into the cave without hesitation.
The hole was like a small tunnel, not leading deep into the ground, but opening sideways. It was pitch black inside, and the drone couldn't fly high, so the constant buzzing inside was extremely loud.
Chu Qiao touched the wall of the cave. At first, it was wet and had water stains.
The further you go inside, the drier the cave walls become. But after all, this is underground, and the dryness is only compared to the heavy rain outside.
In fact, the whole cave smelled of damp and moldy.
The side walls were covered with moss. Chu Qiao pulled away the moss and found that the side walls were uneven and had traces of excavation, proving what she had just said about human excavation.
"Master Chu is really brave."
"That's right, maybe there are some strange animals."
"Could it be that there is a wild man living in it?"
Chu Qiao waved his hand. "Special forces were airdropped to this island for training before, so it's not surprising to see this. It must be a dug-out shelter."
"Master Chu, you can live here then."
Chu Qiao shook his head: "I don't like the feeling of lack of oxygen."
Chu Qiao walked while touching the top and sides of the cave.
Her body suddenly stopped, and the drone also stopped, emitting a long blue light that shone on her cheek, looking particularly terrifying.
"Have I entered a ghost story live broadcast room?"
"Fear."
Chu Qiao picked up something from under his feet.
Chu Qiao groped around for a while and finally walked out of the cave after half a day.
She held up the gray object in her hand towards the camera. "This is moss. Normally it should be green, but these are dead. Luckily, the rain last night wasn't heavy enough to flood into this hole, so these dead mosses are still relatively dry."
"Mosses and lichens are both flammable materials with very low ignition points, and we can use them to start fires."
As Chu Qiao wrapped up the moss and prepared to return, he suddenly saw a spot of light forming on a wall where the drone's blue light hit.
Chu Qiao stopped, and the drone stopped with her. Chu Qiao looked at the light spot.
With a smile on his face, he found what he had searched for everywhere but couldn't find it, but now it is obtained without any effort.
She smiled and said, "This isn't a light spot. It's because that rock has a different texture than the others and transmits light better, so it looks bright."
Chu Qiao walked over and looked at the stone wall up close.
She took out a knife and carefully lifted up the stone which was less than 5 centimeters in diameter.
The blue light shines on the stone, which is as transparent as jade, but because it is too dark around it, its original color cannot be seen.
Chu Qiao walked out of the cave and couldn't wait to take out the stone. In the sunlight, the stone was pink.
"I'll go, Agate."
"Master Chu, there is agate in the cave."
"What are you waiting for? Go in and look for it again. What if there's still something?"
"I'm going treasure hunting, don't stop me."
Chu Qiao scratched her head. She knew it was agate, but... it wasn't valuable. On Mars, you could find a lot of it.
"What are you thinking about, Master Chu?"
Chu Qiao shook the stone in front of the camera. "Everyone is right. It is indeed agate, a type of chalcedony mineral. It is very beautiful. But that's not important. What's important is that it has basically the same composition as flint, both are silicon dioxide, and can be used to start fires."
"What did Master Chu say?"
"I didn't hear it, and I didn't want to hear it."
"Oh my god, I'm here to buy jade and agate. In recent years, agate ore resources have become scarce, and the price has increased several times. Besides, this piece looks pretty good."
Chu Qiao stared blankly at the barrage, then at the agate in his hand. He couldn't connect the dots between this thing and value.
"Master Chu, maybe there are more."
"That's right, bring it back and sell it."
"Master Chu, don't just stand there like an idiot. Take action."
Chu Qiao had no such plan. Not to mention that she didn't think agate was valuable from the bottom of her heart, even if it was really valuable, Chu Qiao would only take what she needed from the wild resources.
Greed is not allowed when surviving in the wilderness.
Amidst everyone's comments expressing regret, Chu Qiao walked back resolutely.
As they walked, Chu Qiao said, "Everyone can think of a possibility. The person who opened this cave discovered the agate but didn't take it all away. This happened to allow me to get what I wanted."
Most netizens suddenly understood.
Chu Qiao continued, "I think I want to leave it for someone who encounters difficulties in the future. To me, it's like flint. One piece is enough."
After saying that, Chu Qiao hummed a tune and strode back to his shelter.
"Master Chu's image has become very high in my heart."
"No, it's getting taller."
"I still think Mr. Chu is stupid."
"The one above is really stupid. Master Chu, this is called sustainable development."
