Chapter 244
After being chased by a bear once, the little monk and Edward were not afraid. Instead, they asked Elijah about the polar bears starving to death. The more they learned, the more shocked they became. It turned out that the rising temperature in the Arctic had such a great impact on animals, especially polar bears that rely on ice floes for hunting. The sooner the ice melts, the longer they will go hungry in the summer.
"We want to find the little cutie." The little monk and Edward stood in front of Chu Huaiqin and put forward their ideas.
"Just the two of you going?" Chu Huaiqin understood their feelings, but he was still worried about letting them go out like this. Either he would go with them, or Xia Entang would go with them.
"Elijah will go too. We have agreed that Caesar will go too, and my sister wants to go too." The little monk said, looking at Chu Huaiqin expectantly. Seeing that he didn't say anything, he felt a little nervous.
The live broadcast room looked at his brother in silence.
"The little monk and Edward finally did one thing right, so let them go!"
"Yeah, I'm worried about the little cutie too. The little cutie who buried herself in the snow, the little cutie who would use her hind legs to push her head to get her brother to play, the little cutie who would give her brother fruit. I miss the little cutie."
"Don't do this! I'm about to cry. Seeing the big guy and the pretty one become so skinny from hunger, what will become of the little cutie?"
"Woo woo~, don't be like this. I feel bad when I think about the little cutie who has no food to eat and has turned into a bamboo pole instead of a round one."
"Now that there's less garbage, and we can't exchange it for fish, we've started fishing again. If everyone goes, how will everyone eat?"
"I don't think my brother is thinking about this. He must have a better idea."
"Yes, in the past, it always took three people to go fishing on the boat. There was no need for so many people."
"Don't make a fuss, let's see what my brother has to say."
"How about this," Chu Huaiqin finally spoke, "I'll discuss it with the other groups first."
"Ah?" The two stared blankly at Chu Huaiqin as he left, not understanding why he had to ask other people.
The live broadcast room was also confused. Not long after Chu Huaiqin walked out, the other two groups of Ali, Alexander, and Page also arrived.
When they met each other, they instantly understood each other.
"How about we form a new group?" Chu Huaiqin asked with a smile.
"Hahaha, Chu, we think so too." Alexander walked forward and wanted to hug Chu Huaiqin, but Xia Entang stood next to Chu Huaiqin faster and blocked his way.
Alexander: “…”
Well, after these few months, he also knew that these two were a couple.
"Alexander and I came here to tell you this," Caesar said with a smile, "Everyone likes the little cutie very much. Anyway, there are only ten days left."
"I want to collect some data, too," Elijah said.
When they were moving ice before, the little cutie often called out from afar to cheer them on. Everyone still has a lot of affection for the little cutie.
"In that case, we can split up into groups. One group will search in the morning, another in the afternoon, and the remaining group will fish." Chu Huaiqin said with a smile, "We've been in the Arctic for over two months now. It's worth the trip if we can walk around a bit."
"Yeah, I think so too. We're stuck in these places all the time. It's time to go out for a walk." Wade agreed.
"The director team said before that no more than five people can form a team." Zoro remembered this.
"Do we have more than five people?" Chu Huaiqin blinked and asked Xia En with an innocent look.
"No, there are still only five of us in Team A. Have we teamed up with you, Alexander?" Xia En said seriously with a stern face.
"Of course not. There are only five of us in our team. Who wants to team up with Paige and the others?" Alexander shrugged.
"I don't want to team up with you. The five of us are very good." Paige put her hands on her hips and retorted. Her face had a ferocious expression, but it was not scary at all.
Caesar: "Exactly. We were just having dinner and the tables were placed together by accident."
Ali: "When I go out, I just happen to take one path. It's because there's only one path here that's easier to walk on!"
Franco: "Yes, yes. When we cook, we gather together because there is no wind there, so the alcohol wax won't be blown out."
"Hahahaha, that's right, no team."
Director team: “…”
Live broadcast room
"That's a very reasonable point. I can't even refute it."
"Pfft, hahaha, that's great, so happy, everyone is having a great time."
"Pfft, Anthony's look of disgust is amazing."
"This is the first time Anthony has been tricked!"
"There are still more than ten days left, let's just paddle, let's all paddle!"
"That's good. We haven't been to the Arctic, and if they travel around, we can see the scenery too."
"Yes, yes, it's also beneficial to us, so——"
"Did they form a team?"
"Really? No! Hahahaha."
Now that we had a goal, we started to group up. After the groups, there were about seven or eight of us. A snowmobile could still fit six people, and with a snow bike, there were still enough seats. But it was already afternoon, so it wasn't suitable to go out anymore. So, we rushed out to fish and troll.
Three small boats went out to sea. This time everyone rowed farther and followed Ali and Caesar. They had a way with fishing in the sea.
"Brother, brother, I'm going out early tomorrow morning. Can you bring me some buns?" The little monk was the most anxious, so he was assigned to go in the morning.
"Do you want to give the buns to the little cutie?" Chu Huaiqin saw what the little monk was thinking at a glance.
"Isn't it possible?" the little monk hesitated. He thought that the big guy was so hungry, and the little cutie must be even thinner.
"Food like steamed buns." Chu Huaiqin shook his head, "No."
Little monk: “…”
"Chu, buns, you can make buns?" Peppa, sitting in another boat, was very surprised. "Let's eat buns tomorrow!"
Paige looked at Chu Huaiqin as if he saw food, his eyes sparkling. He was lucky enough to have tasted the food made by Chu, and it was so delicious.
"Yes, Chinese buns are indeed delicious. The dough is very soft and delicious," Liman nodded in agreement and said, "Chu, let's make buns tomorrow!"
The team members next to him watched and laughed secretly: I have been craving for it for a long time, but I never dared to eat for free.
"It's not impossible, but it requires a lot of flour." Chu Huaiqin could cook a meal occasionally, but there were fifteen people, all grown men, and the quantity was large. It would be a huge workload to feed everyone.
"Leave it to us." The other two groups said in unison.
On this day, they went fishing and did not return until midnight. Although it was still broad daylight, after more than two months, everyone's schedule had adjusted to that of the North Pole. They were so sleepy that they could hardly open their eyes. However, the flour they earned in return was considerable.
The next day, no one slept late. Some were going to look for the cutie, while others were thinking about Chu Huaiqin's buns. Unexpectedly, when we arrived at Group A, no one was still up.
"I'm going to ask the director team for water. Someone please wake him up!" Liman left with the bucket.
"I'm going to change the stuffing. Chu said yesterday that he wanted cabbage and pork." Zuo Luo also left.
Alexander and Caesar looked at each other, neither of them took a step forward. Chu seemed easy to talk to, but thinking about the previous global competition, he was still a little intimidated.
"Or, Edward, you go, you're on the same team." Alexander pushed Edward.
"I don't want it." Although Edward also loved eating buns, he didn't want to call anyone.
"Why don't you go and wake up the little monk and let him shout," Caesar suggested.
"I think how about someone sing a song? Pretend to sing?" Peppa Pig suggested.
"You sing." Alexander and Caesar said in unison.
Paige: “…”
"Why don't you all come together!" Chu Huaiqin opened the tent and walked out yawning. Yesterday, this group of people dragged him fishing until almost twelve o'clock for steamed buns. Now it's only six o'clock in the morning. Is it worth it just for a steamed bun?
A few people didn't answer, but just nodded silently.
Some of the people here have eaten several meals with Chu Huaiqin, while others have only eaten once, but they all remember Chu Huaiqin's cooking skills.
Chu Huaiqin said: "Then let's boil water first!"
Several people: "..."
"Baozi, it'll take at least half an hour. Why don't you go to an internet cafe first?" Chu Huaiqin rolled up his sleeves and said to Xia En as he walked out, "You go too."
"Okay, I'll wash my face." Xia En frowned and went to fetch water.
The others thought so too.
The extra people left and Chu Huaiqin also became busy. Ten minutes later, Lin Zhinan also came to help. Everyone worked enthusiastically. Anthony walked back and forth in front of the tent with his hands behind his back, and the camera was specially given to him.
Live broadcast room
"Anthony: Stop it, don't stop it, it's so hard!"
"Anthony: Should I go get some buns? Should I?"
"Anthony: Steamed buns, delicious steamed buns. If I walk like this, can I convey my desire to eat steamed buns to them? Will they take the initiative to send them over?"
"You guys, that's enough. Is Anthony a drama queen?"
Baozi, a delicacy that has been passed down in China for thousands of years, has its own charm. The dough is the flesh and blood, and the filling is the soul; both are indispensable. Coupled with the excellent craftsmanship of making baozi, the live broadcast audience drools at the sight of the white, tender, and round baozi. Once they are steamed out of the pot, they are even more envious, wishing they could pounce on them and take a bite.
The group returning from the netting operation were also drooling at the aroma of the buns. The thin wrapper, the generous filling, the fresh and delicious flavor, were eaten faster than steaming, and were gone the moment they came out of the pot. Xia En quickly grabbed two for Chu Huaiqin, letting him eat them while he was wrapping them.
Caesar and Wade, who were watching the fire, also squatted there, blowing and biting, while the others gathered around the pot and didn't leave.
The aroma of flour drifted to the director team, but he looked at the bread and milk in his hands and it no longer smelled good.
Everyone enjoyed the meal very much. The first group of people who went out to look for the little cutie set off, and those who stayed behind continued fishing.
Group A includes Chu Huaiqin, Xia Entropy and Lin Zhinan, Group B includes Wade and Alexander, and Group C includes Zorro and Franco.
Three teams of people rowed three small boats out to sea. They first collected the fish in the previous net. There were not many fish, so they found a new place to cast the second net and rowed the boats to another place. Some people picked up the occasional garbage that floated by, and some were fishing.
The sky on the other side was a bit gloomy, with lightning crackling and looking scary, but it was quite a distance away from them.
"The thunderstorm season will soon be here." Chu Huaiqin sighed.
"I don't know how many days it will rain this year," Wade replied. "I remember it rained for about half a month last year!"
"If it's the second half of the year, we don't have to record it in the second half of the month." Zorro lay in the boat, crossed his legs, and looked at the sky.
"It's good that the thunderstorm season has come. It will be here soon after winter." Chu Huaiqin hopes that the thunderstorm season will come soon.
"Hey, Xia, I notice you don't talk much!" Wade looked at Xia Entang, sitting motionless next to Chu with his fishing rod, and couldn't help asking, "Being too quiet is not good."
Zorro: "Yes, Chu would be boring. I'm different. I'm funny."
Xia En's face turned black: "..."
Apart from talking to Qingqing, he really didn't like talking to others, and his eyes turned to Chu Huaiqin.
"Don't listen to what they say," Chu Huaiqin said with a smile, "Just what I like is fine."
Xia En smiled and nodded.
Others: “…”
The little monk and his friends went out but didn't find the bear, so they came back at noon. They brought back the three buns that the little monk had secretly taken out. They steamed them in a pot and gave one to him, Edward, and Paige.
The afternoon group went out with the morning group. This group had a more planned outing. They walked along the coast. Polar bears need the coast to survive. And they were walking in the opposite direction from the monk and the others.
Along the way, the flowers and grass grew well, and you could see animals coming out from time to time.
Xia Entang rode a snow bike with Chu Huaiqin and Lin Zhinan, while the other two teams each rode a snowmobile. Sometimes they followed them slowly, and sometimes they accelerated and rushed out. It was better to say that they were having fun than looking for the little cutie.
"Wow, this mountain has very rich vegetation. Let's go over and take a look!" Wade suggested.
"Sure!" Zorro asked Franco to stop the car, jump out and run up the mountain.
The mountains on this side of the Arctic are not very high. Zorro climbed up in a short while and was stunned by the scenery on this side of the mountain. It was very beautiful.
"Chu, here." Zorro shouted at Chu Huaiqin and the other two who were slowly approaching. A gust of wind blew over and he choked on a mouthful of cold air.
Alexander and Franco were not in a hurry. Wade had already run up. They waited until Chu Huaiqin came over before climbing up together. Standing on the top, they were shocked by the scene below.
The water in the basin gurgles, nourishing the land. Flowers bloom in all colors, even more beautiful than where they camped. Small animals are jumping around, and there is a thin layer of snow not far away.
The nine people came down from the top of the mountain and walked towards the shallow lake, wanting to see what it was like.
"Look what's over there?" Xia En suddenly stood up, pulled Chu Huaiqin, and pointed at a lump of something on the thin snow under a hill.
"It looks like a wolf." Wade said.
"Dead?" Alexander really wanted to go and see. "Let's go and take a look?"
"Go!" Franco was also curious.
The wolf was very big. When they approached it, they heard its "wool" cry for help, and they stopped immediately.
They were only a dozen meters away from the wolf. They didn't know what was going on with such a big wolf. If it rushed towards them, the consequences would be disastrous.
"Are you still going?" Lin Zhinan asked in a low voice, hiding behind Chu Huaiqin. She was a little scared.
"You guys stay here, Alexander and I will go take a look." Xia Entang said hurriedly when he saw that Chu Huaiqin was about to go.
"Go ahead, I want to see it too," said Alexander.
"Hold something in your hand." Chu Huaiqin reminded.
Everyone looked around and found nothing but stones, but stones were good. The two picked up stones and shook them in their hands. Franco and Wade, who stayed behind, also picked up stones, ready to provide support if anything happened.
Alexander and Xia looked at each other and walked in slowly. For a moment, they were a little nervous.
"What are you doing? You can't go over there."
A scolding voice suddenly sounded behind him.
