Chapter 44
Director Huang didn't make such a big deal. The appearance of the wolves also surprised him. They were skinny and had green eyes. It seemed that the heavy rain in recent days had caused them to be short of food, so they had to come out to look for food when it rained. Unexpectedly, they ran into Bingxiang and the others.
There were seven wolves in total, led by a leader, who was about ten meters away from Bingxiang and the other three. Their brutal and cold gazes were fixed on Bingxiang and the other three. They slightly pressed their front legs and made low grunting sounds in their throats, which was the prelude to the beasts preparing to attack.
Bing Xiang and the other three didn't dare to breathe. They stared at the wolves in front of them with their bodies stiff. Their hands trembled slightly, their breathing became heavier, and they used all their strength to stop themselves from retreating, waiting for rescue.
Tensions were rising in the command center. Director Huang was about to pick up the intercom to ask the staff to intervene when Anthony spoke up, "Huang, don't they have a distress watch? They didn't press the distress button."
Director Huang turned his head and looked at Anthony.
"Huang, wilderness survival isn't a hotbed. I've seen clips from previous episodes, and they're very weak at dealing with danger. You organized the assassins to force them to improve in that area, but I don't think it's working." Anthony, noticing Director Huang's grim expression, continued, "From the start of the show until now, everyone who's quit has done so voluntarily. No one's been kicked out because they pressed the SOS button in danger. You're making them think that if they don't press the SOS button, the production team will save them."
"Huang, whether it's the Asian or global competitions, there's no precedent for forcing the production team to take action."
Anthony's Chinese is excellent, and his message is crystal clear. Director Huang was struck on the head with a club. Exactly. How is his behavior different from previous years? In previous years, the selections were internal, and while he wasn't, the production team intervened whenever a contestant was in danger, preventing them from facing danger, preventing them from finding ways to save themselves. This subtly fostered a sense of dependence on others. What's the point of selecting a roster like this?
What they want are contestants who can survive in the wild, not greenhouse flowers who rely on the protection of the program team.
"But, if you get hurt..."
"Huang, if they are afraid of getting hurt, they can press the distress button and give up the game."
Director Anthony repeated his earlier words, then fell silent. He was actually the most optimistic about Chu among the group, both for his wilderness survival experience and his fighting prowess. However, Chu's heat intolerance severely conflicted with the venue of his final tournament of the year. Unfortunately, Anthony felt that even if he made it through the Asian competition, he would be eliminated immediately at the start of the global competition.
Director Huang was struggling internally. You have to know that things are very different in China and abroad. If someone scratched their finger while participating in a program, the production team would be criticized by fans. In addition, the overall environment in China...
The confrontation between the man and the werewolf at the scene became tense. The wolf had already started to take a step, and the gurgling sound from its throat became more and more rapid. Along with the sound of heavy rain, fear continued to accumulate in the hearts of Bingxiang and others, causing their bodies to move involuntarily. However, as soon as they moved, the skinny wolf also moved, revealing its terrifying fangs.
"Director, where is the anesthesiologist?" Tong Tiao's face turned pale. He quickly glanced at Bing Xiang and others around him, judging his own situation. He found that he was standing in the front, Lin Yongfu was parallel to him, and Bing Xiang Fengshan was slightly behind him, a few centimeters away.
"Yes, why don't the staff come up?" Lin Yongfu's back was sweating, his stomach suddenly ached, his head felt a little dizzy, and he felt a little nauseous. He suddenly realized that he was too nervous and even his body was in trouble. He secretly comforted himself, don't be nervous, it's okay, don't be nervous, there are anesthesiologists and wilderness survival professionals following, they will find a way.
Bingxiang carefully rubbed his hands along the side of his pants, wiping away the cold sweat. He felt something was wrong, but he couldn't figure out what. He could only slowly lower his hand to the back of his backpack and grip the dagger. Two or three minutes had passed, and the director crew hadn't made a move, which gave him a bad feeling.
Director Huang was still struggling. After pacing for a few steps, he picked up the intercom and said to the anesthesiologist on site, "I'll let them handle it themselves, but you all have to be on guard. If the wolf really tries to hurt them, take action."
There are now two anesthesiologists. They were a little surprised to hear what Director Huang said, but nodded quickly. One of the anesthesiologists had experienced the tiger incident, and the mistake he made at that time was a big blow to him. After receiving Director Huang's instructions, he secretly told himself that there must be no problems this time.
"Listen up," the drone soared high, its voice echoing from afar. Two of the wolves turned and howled at the drone. Director Huang took a deep breath, calming himself, and said, "You have three choices: give up the game, solve the problem, or escape."
Huang's comments sent the livestream into a frenzy, with some commenting, "I didn't expect the final battle to be something interesting at last." Others worried about what would happen if the wolf injured them, while others even cursed the production team, saying they were trying to kill someone.
The four people present were the most shocked, and it took them a while to come back to their senses. At this moment, the one who moved the fastest was Tong Tiao. While everyone was still pondering whether to give up, escape, or how to escape, Tong Tiao suddenly turned around and ran. As soon as he moved, the wolf also moved, and pounced on the four people.
This moment happened so quickly that many people in the live broadcast room screamed in fright.
"asshole!"
Bing Xiang cursed loudly and instantly rushed to the left. Feng Shan, who was standing with him, also followed quickly. Lin Yongfu reacted the slowest, and his instinct made him run straight after Tong Tao.
The seven wolves quickly separated into camps, two chased Bingxiang and the others, and five chased Tong Tao and Lin Yongfu.
“Help!”
Lin Yongfu screamed instinctively. It was not easy to run in the sticky mud in the heavy rain. In addition, the trees grew irregularly, so Tong Tao and Lin Yongfu almost bumped into the trees several times.
When the man and the wolves started running, the director team followed them, but soon two wolves gave up chasing Tong Tao and stopped to howl at the director team.
"The anesthesiologist goes after Tong Tao, and Master Li stays." Instructor Huang's voice appeared in the headsets of all the directors.
The deputy director's face turned green after hearing this. Their director team had seven or eight people, but they had to confront two wolves. He felt that their chances of winning were slim!
"Master Li, what should we do?" The deputy director swallowed nervously.
"Go!" Master Li said to the anesthesiologist, asking him to chase after him quickly, otherwise it would be troublesome if something happened.
"Thank you for your hard work." The anesthesiologist agreed, bent down, and quickly left the director team to chase Tong Tao.
Tong Tao and Lin Yongfu stumbled as they ran. The wolf that was chasing them was not very fast, perhaps because it was too hungry. It would occasionally fall to the ground and pause before chasing again.
However, the fear of being chased by wolves was really scary, and coupled with the vague discomfort in his body, Lin Yongfu screamed loudly. It was after this situation that Chu Huaiqin and others heard the screams of Tong Tiao and others.
"Brother, they might be being chased by wolves." The little monk quickly grabbed the stick in his hand, which was used to beat the grass to drive away snakes. "Don't we have an anesthesiologist? Why are they being chased?"
"Maybe Director Huang remembered that this is a wilderness survival game!" Chu Huaiqin shook the stick in his hand and said in a deep voice, "Xia Entang, you take Su Huaichen, and Little Monk, you take my sister."
Live broadcast room:
"Please ask the class representative, what does Chu Huaiqin mean by this?"
"Does that mean Director Huang was too nice to them before?"
"Is Chu Huaiqin too arrogant?"
"I just like such a confident brother. Go ahead, brother. I want to see you fight the wolf."
"Haha, Chu, I like it!" Anthony laughed.
Director Huang: …
"Brother, what next?" The voice was getting closer and closer. The little monk was a little nervous. He pricked up his ears to listen to the sound and judge the distance, wanting to know what Chu Huaiqin was going to do.
Live broadcast room:
"Brother: Beat it to death."
"Brother: Oh, a dish."
"Don't make noise, just listen."
Everyone in the live broadcast room also held their breath, wanting to hear Chu Huaiqin's answer.
Chu Huaiqin: "Hide."
Everyone: ...Where is your brother who was supposed to be so domineering?
The little monk and Su Huaichen also looked at Chu Huaiqin in surprise. It didn't seem like his answer! He dared to tease big tigers before, but now he's afraid of wolves?
"Hurry up and let it rain for six or seven days. You may not be hungry, but they are!" Otherwise, why would they attack humans? Or find a group of people to attack? Chu Huaiqin had no interest in confronting the hungry wolves head-on. "Let's go!"
After Chu Huaiqin finished speaking, the group hurried back. However, they could hear the sound before, which meant that Tong Tiao and the others were not far away. After a while, they saw Tong Tiao and Lin Yongfu followed by three wolves in their sight. The anesthesiologist was also running behind them, but he did not take any action.
"Holy shit." The little monk yelled, his eyes widening.
But there was no time to think about anything else. Chu Huaiqin grabbed his sister and ran, and the little monk followed. Xia Entropy looked at Su Huaichen's hand with disdain, but didn't pull him. He just said coldly, "Run."
The five of them immediately broke into a run, but Chu Huaiqin felt that running this way wouldn't solve the problem. He shouted to Xia Entang, "You lead the seniors to run to the right, and I'll run to the left."
Xia En was reluctant, but he looked back at Tong Tao and the others who were almost dying of running and nodded. Director Huang was definitely ready to ignore everyone, and the best option was to separate and deal with the wolves first.
Tong Tiao and Lin Yongfu, who were behind them, were delighted at first sight of Chu Huaiqin, but despair washed over them when they saw them running too. The two had been running for too long, their chests squeezed for oxygen, and the subtle discomfort in their bodies made their eyes dim.
Can't lose!
These words flashed through his mind, and Tong Tiao turned to look at the person running after him. He uncontrollably grabbed the backpack straps on his arms and pulled them down, and the heavy backpack suddenly fell towards Lin Yongfu behind him.
Lin Yongfu, advancing at full speed, hadn't expected Tong Tao to do this. His backpack crashed down at his feet, and he dove straight down. Instinctively, he pressed the surrender button. The anesthesiologist behind him hadn't even had time to register his surrender, but the moment he collapsed, his □□ rapidly fired, hitting one of them. There were still two left. One fell high over Lin Yongfu and chased Tong Tao, while the other pounced on the fallen Lin Yongfu...
"ah!"
At the same time, everyone screamed, looking at the hungry wolf's fangs. They all thought that Lin Yongfu would be bitten. Then an unsheathed dagger flew over and hit the hungry wolf hard. It screamed in pain instantly, and the anesthesiologist rushed to inject anesthetic.
Only then did everyone see clearly that Chu Huaiqin and the little monk were on the hillside not far away, and the dagger was thrown by Chu Huaiqin.
Everyone calmed down and looked at Tong Tao angrily, only to discover a shocking scene. Although Tong Tao had harmed Lin Yongfu, he didn't stop. This wasn't surprising, but what was strange was that not far ahead was the cliff that Chu Huaiqin and the others had just passed. The live broadcast room and Director Huang were shocked. What happened to him?
Something is wrong with Tong Tao!
"Quick, stop Tong Tao." Director Huang shouted, but at this time there was no one except the wolf and the anesthesiologist chasing him.
"Little monk, keep an eye on your sister!"
Chu Huaiqin said this and ran up the hillside. Everyone was shocked: What is Chu Huaiqin going to do?
The author has something to say: I wanted to write more, but now I have a fever and need to see a doctor.
