Chapter 10
#Chu Huaiqin kills the snake with a flying knife#
This trending search was on from the early hours of last night until everyone got up and went to work the next day. Many passers-by who clicked on it had a dreamy feeling. The agile posture, the sharp eyes when flying the knife, and the domineering attitude when swinging the knife made the audience scream. In addition, Chu Huaiqin's complexion was not bad, and everyone seemed to see the chivalrous young man in the martial arts novels. For a moment, they felt a little regretful that he was not wearing ancient costume.
Chu Huaiqin’s two previous TV series have become popular again because of this, and everyone is looking forward to the yet-to-be-broadcast "War of the Gods" even more.
Traffic for the wilderness survival live broadcast has reached its highest point since the show began due to this trending search. New viewers ran to the live broadcast room with great interest, suppressing their rapidly beating hearts, wanting to see the figure of the cold, lonely and domineering man last night, but what did they see?
A salted fish?
Chu Huaiqin was very hot and was sweating while leaning against a tree trunk. His sister came over in a two-piece suit with water for Chu Huaiqin to drink, which formed a sharp contrast with Chu Huaiqin who was sweating in a short-sleeved shirt.
"How's your foot? Can you walk?" Chu Huaiqin took the water from his sister and sat up cross-legged. The young monk had gotten up early today and accidentally saw his sister secretly trying to pick a blister. He realized how serious her foot injury was. He stopped her immediately, saying that picking a blister could easily cause infection and be very painful.
My sister nodded obediently: "Well, I'll wrap it with gauze when we leave this afternoon so that it won't hurt when I walk."
After that, my sister went back to pack up the tent with the others. Chu Huaiqin frowned, sweat dripping down his face, and he was in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking. In the A1 live broadcast room, everyone was about to sigh that their beautiful dreams had been shattered, but the camera cut away. I guess the director didn't want to see Chu Huaiqin look so miserable, so he turned to the others.
The sun rises early in March, and it is only a little after six o'clock now. Some people in Group A2 are still sleeping, while some have already woken up. They are all amateurs and a few athletes.
"There are a total of ten people from the entertainment industry participating, and three are out now. I'm betting on Yang Ling, followed by Lin Zhinan, Shao Tai, and Su Huaichen. Lan Tianhua and Liang Zhehan are martial arts stars, so they should be able to last longer. The most confusing one right now is Chu Huaiqin."
"I don't agree. Looking at that squeamish kid just now, I guess the next ones are Lin Zhinan and Chu Huaiqin. The others are up to you. My sister Yang Ling has a straightforward personality and strong perseverance, so she will definitely be the last one."
"That's right, everyone carry her to the last one!"
The live broadcast room was noisy again, and the director team was shooting everything again, not trying to create a hot topic at all. It was a fresh and unconventional show in the entertainment industry.
Group A3's tents have been packed up, and those who went out to look for food have returned one after another. Unfortunately, no one caught any small crucian carp today, only a few small shrimps and small fish the size of a little finger.
"Where is Huaiqin?" Su Huaichen asked curiously.
It was only then that the others realized that Chu Huaiqin was missing, and no one knew where the backpack had gone. The little monk was also not in the camp.
At this time, Chu Huaiqin and the little monk were squatting on the ground pulling herbs. Chu Huaiqin came out to find food and herbs to treat his sister's feet. He didn't expect to see one of the herbs that the program team asked to be picked, Artemisia selengensis, which is medicinal and edible. Chu Huaiqin thought while pulling, the program asked them to pick five out of sixteen herbs, and there were pictures. Could it be that they wanted them to find food in disguise? Otherwise, finding five herbs is a bit weird, and it's not much of a challenge for the program. After pulling out half a frame of Artemisia selengensis, Chu Huaiqin looked everywhere again, but he didn't find anything except Houttuynia cordata. Inexplicably, Chu Huaiqin felt that survival in the wild had just begun. After all, survival in the wild is mainly about survival, not traveling. Otherwise, the director team would not have given them a month to complete a journey that could be completed in half a month.
Or perhaps the original intention of the program team was to let them know how to survive in the jungle and lay the foundation for the subsequent Asian and international competitions.
Just when everyone was about to go find Chu Huaiqin, he came back with the little monk carrying a frame on his back, and Xia En from the camp next door was looking at Chu Huaiqin with the eyes of a heartless man, which was creepy.
After Chu Huaiqin came back, everyone knew that he had gone to look for herbs. Herbs that can be used for ointments or eaten are very popular, especially when no one can find food.
"Are herbs so easy to find?"
"I should have watched Chu Huaiqin's video. I didn't see how he found the herbs."
The livestream was a pity. Chu Huaiqin returned, and Team A3 began making breakfast. They tossed the small shrimp and fish directly into the noodle soup, then blanched the wild wormwood and houttuynia cordata in a cold salad. Everyone loved the former, but Su Huaichen, Lin Zhinan, and three other athletes couldn't eat the latter at all. The snot-like texture nearly made them vomit. Chu Huaiqin, the little monk, and Feng Shanbingxiang, on the other hand, devoured it with gusto.
Many people in the live broadcast room also complained that they couldn't stand the smell of Houttuynia cordata and would rather go hungry.
Some of the houttuynia cordata was left out, crushed and squeezed out to extract the juice and rubbed on the blisters. In addition to my sister, everyone else also rubbed some on it. My sister's feet were wrapped with a layer of gauze, which made it difficult to walk, but it was not painful enough to walk. It was almost nine o'clock in the morning. They had obviously gotten up at six o'clock, so how could they dawdle until now?
"Why aren't they in a hurry at all? If I calculated the date correctly, today is the third day, right? The director team will send assassins to hunt them down at noon. Why don't they hurry up? Wasn't Yang Ling in such a hurry to leave just to cover more distance?"
"We can't hurry. Everyone is a little bit exhausted from walking like this. If we hurry any further, I think someone will die, especially Chu Huaiqin. Every time I look at him, I think he will faint in the next second."
"I think Yang Ling's group was lucky. They didn't bring any water bottles because they were in a hurry to get there, but the route was along small valleys and streams, so they had no shortage of water."
"Luck is also a form of strength. I praise Sister Yang so much. It's just that the director team is so annoying. They gave Team A2 so few shots."
"Of course. It's nothing but quarrels over there. Who wants to watch it? I even suspect Yang Ling is doing it on purpose, trying to create a topic to increase traffic. Who would have thought that this year's directors would be bothered by this?"
"Let's place a bet to see who gets killed first."
"Come on, we were talking about who would drop out after those three, but now there's no one left."
"Of course. Group A2 has slowed down because of Yang Ling's mischief."
"What do you mean Sister Yang is causing trouble? The A3 isn't that fast either."
The live broadcast room is noisy again. The fans of "Survivor" are very annoyed and are asking if there will be no celebrities participating next year. These fans are arguing every day.
"It's ok to invite a celebrity, but let's just invite someone like Chu Huaiqin. His fans are too cowardly. When there's no quarrel, they'll show up and yell, 'Come on, brother! You're so handsome!' But once they start quarreling, they all disappear."
This comment later received hundreds of thousands of likes.
At this time, in the director team's headquarters camp, two teams of "hunters" sent by the director team also started to set off, cutting out the cross-channel from the A1 live broadcast room to the audience, so that everyone can see the situation of the "assassin" in real time.
The two teams of assassins were dressed in camouflage uniforms, holding black guns that looked majestic in appearance but were actually filled with paintballs. They stood there with cold expressions and listened to the director's instructions.
"You are all veterans. I believe in your strength, so don't let me down. By mid-April, I want the total number of people to be reduced by one-sixth, and by the end of the wilderness survival mission, I want the total number of people to be reduced by two-sixths. Do you understand?"
"yes."
"Set off."
A powerful voice rang out, and the two teams of assassins quickly dispersed in two directions. They looked very scary and aggressive, and the audience in the live broadcast room swallowed their saliva. "Ahhh, they are coming, they are coming with guns, what should I do, I really want to notify Chu Huaiqin and the others."
"Ohhhhhh, this is so exciting."
Everyone screamed in pain from the stings. Chu Huaiqin's team climbed up and down the mountain again, searching for the herbs the production team had requested. However, aside from the two he'd picked at the beginning, they didn't see any more. At noon, everyone ate what they'd prepared that morning, rested for about an hour, and then slowly began to walk again. That night, they found a flat spot to camp. As usual, they went out to look for food, but this time, they weren't as lucky as before and found nothing. In the end, they had to finish their stockpile and stare at each other in bewilderment at the empty boxes.
"Let's sleep first! We'll look for it tomorrow." Chu Huaiqin said. It was too dark now and they had searched around but found no food. They could only walk further away.
"We don't have much water left." The little monk glanced at his sister's lips. In order to save water, she didn't drink much water today.
"Let's see the situation tomorrow. If it really doesn't work, we'll change the route." Su Huaichen suggested.
Lin Yongfu didn't think this was a good idea. "But this isn't the intersection of the three routes. If we want to change routes, we'll have to cross an unknown area."
"But I feel that the vegetation here is becoming increasingly scarce. If we don't change our route, we may be forced to give up the mission due to hunger." Feng Shan agreed with this suggestion.
For a moment, everyone had different opinions and instinctively looked at Chu Huaiqin.
"Let's go to sleep first and talk about it tomorrow." Chu Huaiqin yawned and looked around at everyone.
"Okay, let's talk about it tomorrow."
Su Huaichen also yawned and crawled into the tent. Although everyone had something on their minds that night, they were still too tired to fall into a deep sleep.
“Ouch!”
In the pitch-black night, the roar of wild beasts woke everyone up. Chu Huaiqin and Xia Entang were the first to wake up. They both emerged from the tent, daggers in hand. Chu Huaiqin looked toward the source of the sound, while Xia Entang ran toward him. At this moment, the people in the tent were also awakened and emerged. Just as they were about to ask what was going on, Chu Huaiqin shouted, "Don't move."
"how……"
Su Huaichen was just about to ask what happened when a pair of cold eyes slowly moved out from the darkness outside the camp. The agile figure took elegant steps, which gave people a great sense of intimidation - it was a leopard.
