123. I am surviving on a desert island
123. I am surviving on a desert island
Dawn was just breaking in the sky, and there were already some noises in the camp.
Xu Santong and Ouyang sorted out their belongings and prepared to enter the forest with weapons in hand.
"Yesterday you encountered danger. How about we go in together today? There will be more people, so we can rely on each other in case of danger."
David got up early and jogged around the beach for a while to relax his muscles and bones. When he saw Xu Santong and the others walking into the forest, he stopped them and said.
"you?"
Ou Yang had doubts in his eyes, and he understood what David meant when he saw Linda and Saidaman who were obviously ready in the other two tents.
It seems that the brothers Gu Xihe and Gu Xixi had uncharacteristic contact with Yan Chu yesterday, which made the three players from the Western Federation feel a sense of crisis. They said they were worried about the dangers in the forest, but in fact they still wanted to join forces with them in the competition. China has the upper hand.
It's a pity that this is not a competition that considers overall quality. What you need to show in the program is the interesting content of your live broadcast room and your ability to attract viewers. If it is just the kind of desperate competition program, the only survivor If you are a champion, everything will be different again.
But forming a team is not completely useless. Relying on the strength of the team to capture stronger prey and perform more thrilling scenes is also an easy way to attract the audience.
And if the team cooperates well, it will be easy to share each other's popularity, because always appearing together means that you can not only appear in your own live broadcast room, but also in other people's live broadcast rooms. This is An opportunity for increased exposure.
Therefore, Ouyang and Xu Santong thought about it, did not reject David's proposal, and chose to go into the forest with them.
The bonus of one million star coins is a temptation, but you have to survive until then. Yesterday, they encountered two waves of attacks in the forest. With three more teammates, at least they can ensure that they will have more when the crisis comes. Ability to resist.
The five people were ready to go, and after grabbing their self-defense weapons, they opened the live broadcast room at the same time.
[Are Xu Santong and the others planning to join forces with the Western Federation Group? I wonder what Yan Chu and Gu Changhe will do, and whether they will also join forces to form a team]
[Well, yesterday Yan Chu also taught them how to identify poisonous or non-toxic plants, right? It feels like...]
[Upstairs, this is a competition, it’s actually quite understandable]
Although it is just before six o'clock in the morning federal time, there are already many Star Network viewers waiting on the live broadcast platform, waiting for the live broadcast to start.
Many of them were fans of the most popular Yan Chu and Gu Xihe. Because the live broadcast rooms of these two people were not open, they simply came to the rooms of the five players who had already started the live broadcast to join in the fun.
[This is a live broadcast competition in the wild. No one said that we can’t form a team, and no one stipulates the number of people in a team. Yan Chu has already teamed up with Sheng Xiaoxing. Besides, this forest is so dangerous. The more people, the worse. OK]
[That's right, what kind of group should I tell you? It's safer if we all stay together. Usually in horror movies, it's a sign of death if you separate. I think the contestants are all idiots. I'm going against it.]
【It hurts your lungs】
The Dou Xiong Live Broadcast Room has once again become lively. The news on the Star Network these days has almost been flooded by this new planet that contains countless precious extinct species. Yan Chu and others who were similarly accidentally stranded on a desert island are gaining momentum. The red stars of the Federation are almost all the keywords searched on the Internet now.
Dou Xiong's traffic these days has gone from more than 30 billion at the beginning of the live broadcast to more than 160 billion now, and only one day has passed.
The five of them entered the forest for half an hour, and Yan Chu finally got up.
The first thing Yan Chu did when he got up was to check how his distilled water was doing.
Before going to bed last night, he made several simple distillation devices using some of the remaining glass bottles in the spacecraft.
Pour some seawater into an empty bottle, so that no seawater will pour out after it is placed horizontally. Make a few pots with soil that are big enough to put the wine bottles in, place yellow sand in them, and then place the wine bottles flat and embed them. Pour seawater into a mud pot filled with yellow sand. The seawater wets the sand and is slightly higher than the sand surface.
The same goes for the other side, except that the bottle placed on that side is empty.
The mouths of the two bottles correspond to each other, and a fire is lit under the earth basin containing the seawater bottle. After the seawater is boiled, the water vapor will flow to the other bottle and condense into drinkable water droplets.
Yan Chu used almost all the empty wine bottles before going to bed last night. When he got up in the morning, he checked and found that the water in each bottle was not much, but the total amount could barely contain more than half a bottle of drinking water.
[666, last night I was still wondering what Yan Chu was doing with these things. Now it seems that my IQ is almost the same as that of Qaidiya Basin, which means I have a low IQ]
[My Yan is so handsome. Those challenges in the past were too easy, so he never showed his true level. Now he is living on a desert island. Finally, we can see what a serious wilderness explorer is like. Looks like]
The barrage was full of praise. Yan Chu cut the potatoes into pieces, poured the distilled water into the pot, poured in a few pieces that were also cut into pieces, and then added sliced ginger and a few slices of green onion. Leaves, after the chicken is boiled, take out the chicken and run it through cold water.
Then he poured the potatoes into a clean pot and stir-fried. Before frying, he brushed the bottom of the soup pot with the cut chicken butt. There wasn't much oil, but it was better than nothing.
After the potatoes changed color, he poured the chicken pieces into the pot, put ginger slices and scallion leaves. If there was no cooking wine, he used the only remaining bottle of beer. He didn't pour much, because this bottle of beer was supposed to belong to Jiu. personal amount.
There was no white sugar, so Yan Chu used the juice of a fruit that was quite sweet and had no strange taste, and then sprinkled it with salt and some pepper powder.
Finally add water and let the food in the pot simmer slowly.
Yan Chu thought that maybe he would have to find some seasonings when he went into the mountains today.
Then, before the others woke up and the potato and chicken nuggets were not cooked yet, he set up his distillation device again, so that when he came back from the forest, he would have another half bottle of clean water that could be drank directly. .
Sheng Xiaoxing and others were all awakened by the smell of potato stewed with chicken nuggets. They got up neatly from their sleeping bags, rubbed their faces, chewed a few leaves to freshen their breath, and sat in a row waiting for Yan Chu to share the meal.
There was not enough drinking water for the time being, let alone luxuries such as washing your face and brushing your teeth. Gu Xihe and Yan Chu had agreed that all the food they brought would be handled by Yan Chu in the future, so the brothers and sisters waited for the meal next to Yan Chu. I don’t feel embarrassed at all eating it.
"too delicious."
Sheng Xiaoxing picked up a piece of chicken nugget and put it in his mouth. His eyes suddenly lit up and his teeth chewed faster.
The chicken was so well stewed that even the bones were crispy. It was moderately salty. Although it lacked some necessary seasonings, it was still excellent. Because juice was used instead of sugar, there was an inexplicable light fruity aroma. .
The sweet potato has been stewed to a crisp, and can be opened with just a sip of the tongue. It is salty and fragrant. Now take another sip of the soup that contains all the essence, and it will be soaring.
[Actually, I think Guang Xiaoxing’s words about how delicious it is are completely unreliable. She is just a fan with no brains, so I proposed to package and send a copy to me. I am a food critic and I will definitely be able to have an idea of Yan Chu’s craftsmanship. Intuitive and fair judgment]
[Ah ah ah ah, what are those ingredients? We have the chicken, but I can’t buy the potato or ginger or anything like that.]
[Does Yan Chu need saliva? I have saved a bucket and can send it to him at any time]
It’s not just the fans of Yan Chu and Sheng Xiaoxing who are drooling after watching this, Gu Xixi’s fans are known as the clear stream in the live broadcast industry and consider themselves to be the calmest star chasers. But from yesterday’s roasted snake meat on a stone slab to now’s stewed potato and chicken , I couldn't help but couldn't control my mouth. While watching the Star Network, I had to eat something to quench my thirst.
[Originally, I didn’t believe how good Yan Chu’s cooking skills were, but look at Xiao Xi’s eyes. I swear with my 24K titanium alloy dog eyes, her eyes were wide open when she was eating that potato stewed chicken. The curvature is 0.7 to 1.3, and the speed at which she eats and chews is 1.3 to 1.5 times faster than the speed at which she ate during previous live broadcasts]
It’s a data geek’s orgy.
[That’s not necessarily true. Xiaoxi and Brother Dahe used to do live broadcasts together. Maybe it’s not that Yan Chu’s skills are too good, but that Brother Dahe’s skills are terrible. After all, he is a master at catching prey and can always bake food. Jiao Na is also famous】
[Impossible, Gu Xixi used to be my direct senior. She was like this when she was in the school cafeteria. Whether she was eating stir-fried dishes ordered from the window or nutritional supplements, she always had the same expression. The taste of our school cafeteria is still good. Yes, Yan Chu’s craftsmanship is at least better than that of the master]
The audience had a heated discussion about Yan Chu's craftsmanship. The most popular one was that he hoped that Yan Chu could open a restaurant when he returned to the Federation and use these ingredients that they had never seen before. They would definitely support him.
"Nonsense."
In the Federal Central Laboratory, a group of old professors gathered in the laboratory and watched the live broadcast while yawning.
This is a high-level talent reserved for the plant department. Is it reasonable to ask him to open a restaurant?
But his craftsmanship seems to be quite good. I wonder if I can enjoy his filial piety as a teacher if I accept him as my apprentice.
The old professors looked serious on their faces, but thought with swallowing saliva in their hearts.
"Shall we go this way today?"
Yan Chu patrolled around the edge of the forest, pointed in a certain direction and said to Sheng Xiaoxing.
"Well, don't worry, I will definitely protect you today."
Sheng Xiaoxing nodded repeatedly. Today she wanted to catch two chickens, no, three chickens. Anyway, she must make Yan Chu feel that she is a more reliable companion than Gu Xixi and Gu Xihe.
[The direction Yan Chu pointed to was the direction Xu Santong and the others walked more than an hour ago, right? 】
The audience who stayed in Xu Santong's live broadcast room for a while because they didn't broadcast live said in confusion.
[Not necessarily, I see the leaves on these trees are all the same]
Some viewers also felt that they had seen it wrong.
Gu Xixi glanced at the position pointed by Yan Chu, walked a few steps forward, and saw Xu Santong's team's unique mark "X" on a certain tree, and glanced at Yan Chu.
"We plan to go in this direction today, why not come together? Yesterday Xu Santong and the others encountered a python in the forest. Maybe it would be safer if there are more people."
After Gu Xixi finished speaking, Gu Xihe nodded in agreement.
"Your hand is still injured. If you are in danger, we can protect you."
Gu Xihe thought that this was an excellent chef. If something happened to him, he and his sister would have to rely on his bad skills to fill their stomachs.
Sheng Xiaoxing pursed her lips and wanted to say that she was also very powerful, but her reason told her that going with Gu Xihe and the others was the safest choice, so she did not refuse.
The four of them, Yan Chu and Gu Xixi to be precise, formed a temporary alliance with the same purpose and headed towards the road that Xu Santong and others left.
The roads are all made by people. Because no one has entered this forest in the past, it is full of thorns and jungles. If you want to move forward, you need to use wooden sticks or machetes to clear the way.
Therefore, in the forward direction, several people can rely on the marks they left, and on the other hand, they can also identify based on the direction of the bushes and the chopping marks of some branches.
Xu Santong and the others obviously left much earlier than they did, and they couldn't find them in a short time. Along this direction, Yan Chu looked for some usable plants along the way, and it was quite easy to walk.
[Xu Santong’s live broadcast room has been closed again. This time, the live broadcast room of David and the others has also been closed. What’s going on? Do they have signal blocking? 】
Many viewers in other rooms had to rush into Yan Chu's room again because the live broadcast was closed.
[It’s Xu Santong and Ouyang again...are they really not the live broadcast ball that they shut down themselves...]
[I don’t know, but I really want to say that the direction that Yan Chu and the others are heading now is the direction that Xu Santong and the others passed by at the beginning. Did you see that tree? It looks like a tilde. They were in Xu Santong’s room just now. We also laughed at this tree as it is a skinny tree]
[Ah, is it true? Is it possible that after a while Yan Chu and the others will also go to the area where the live broadcast signal may also be blocked? Aren’t all nine players blocked? How long will it take to recover this time?]
[When they participated in the bear fighting competition, they should not have canceled the function of their optical-brain connection network. Now no one can contact them. Otherwise, they can be notified and asked to change directions quickly and stay away from the place where the signal is blocked]
The audience in the live broadcast were worried about the possibility that Yan Chu and the others might encounter interruptions in the live broadcast, and they couldn't help complaining about Xu Santong and Ouyang's unlucky situation. How come they could meet up in places on the island that can block signals.
[Restored, Xu Santong’s live broadcast room has been restored, but the signal is very poor, the video quality is messy, and the screen goes black again from time to time. I don’t know how long it can last like this]
[Are they separated again? 】
The netizen who heard the message only mentioned Xu Santong, and others wondered whether they were attacked by some animal again and separated.
[There are not five people together, but the other four people’s live broadcast rooms are still black.]
This is a bit strange. Normally, since they are all together, there is no reason that one person's live broadcast can connect to the signal, but the other four people cannot.
[Despair, Yan Chu and the others are getting closer and closer to the place where Xu Santong and the others’ signal just ended]
[Ah, snake! python! 】
[Go to Xu Santong’s room quickly, the five of them are being targeted by two giant pythons]
[Holy shit, it’s so scary. Yesterday Xu Santong said they encountered a giant python and none of us saw it, but this time it was filmed directly in the live broadcast room, and there was an extra one. I was thinking about Xu Santong and the others yesterday. I went back to find help this time]
The number of people in the room of Yan Chu and others who were still very active suddenly dropped by more than half, and they all went to Xu Santong's live broadcast room.
There has never been such a breaking point since the show started. Many viewers couldn't help but feel their adrenaline rush rising when they heard the word "Monster Python". They felt thrilling and excited, and at the same time they were worried about Xu Santong and the others.
As described by netizens before, the picture in Xu Santong's live broadcast room is very unstable, appearing and disappearing, probably because Xu Santong and the others are tired of escaping, and the environment they are in now is too dense with plants, and the movement of the live broadcast ball is often disturbed. for the sake of.
The screen was live broadcast for a while as Xu Santong and others were running for their lives, and for a while the screen went black. When the screen restored again, what appeared on the screen was another python chasing the five people.
It has big yellow eyes with vertical pupils, sharp fangs, its mouth is wide open, its mouth is full of saliva, its huge body, its belly rubs against the coarse ground, its tail swings from some branches and trunks from time to time, bringing down a large sapling. .
The power was so great that it was frightening. No wonder Xu Santong and others didn't even have the courage to face these two giant pythons, so they turned around and ran away.
[They seem to be running back. After a while, they will run into Yan Chu and the others.]
[Those two snakes are too long. How many small animals have to be eaten? I feel that even if all nine people get together, they may not be able to compete with those two pythons]
The audience couldn't care less about watching the excitement. If the commotion was not good, they would have to live broadcast to witness nine contestants being buried in the belly of a python. Especially the timid girls were so frightened that they were dripping with sweat and did not dare to watch the live broadcast.
"Did you hear anything?"
After Yan Chu picked a few star anise, he stopped and asked Gu Xihe.
He is a martial arts practitioner, so his hearing should be better than theirs.
"There seems to be some kind of sound, but it's a little far away."
Gu Xihe asked them not to talk or move around, and focused on their hearing.
"Is it Xu Santong and the others?"
Gu Xixi frowned and ran in the direction of those marks without thinking.
The remaining three people saw her move and naturally followed her immediately.
"Don't come here, run away."
Only seven or eight minutes away, they saw Xu Santong and others from a distance, but the python hadn't appeared yet.
Xu Santong knew that the strength of the nine of them would never be able to deal with the two pythons. The only way to save them now was to get rid of them and escape from their sight.
Snakes are not dogs. They mainly rely on sensing heat to hunt. As long as the distance is increased, they may be saved.
Therefore, Xu Santong didn't really hope that Yan Chu and the others would come. At most, it would make the heat source bigger, or add more food to the python.
"Help, come and save us."
Others had completely different reactions. They all thought that there would be more people, or that they would be saved.
It was earlier than Yan Chu imagined. It was only the second day.
After almost two shouts, the heads of the two pythons finally appeared in Yan Chu's sight.
[Have you noticed, also in this area, why the live broadcast rooms of Yan Chu and the others are still showing normally? Does anyone remember where the live broadcast of Xu Santong and others was disconnected before?]
[Is it time to consider these details now? Those are two giant pythons. Why don’t Yan Chu and the others run away? I’m almost dying for him.]
At this moment, all the viewers watching the live broadcast in front of the Star Network almost held their breath, fearing that blood would be splashed in front of the screen in the next second.
I don't know if the pythons were tired of playing the game of big snakes chasing small people or something else. Finally, they chose to exert their strength and crawled faster, getting closer and closer to the five people in front.
Ouyang's eyes were dull for a moment, and then he hooked his legs in a vague way, tripping up Linda who was keeping about the same speed as him. Linda, who was already a little weak from running for her life for a long time, Unprepared, he stumbled and fell to the ground.
At this time, the python was only about 20 meters away from her, and the fishy smell caused by the snake's mouth opening and closing made people dizzy.
This action was very hidden. Only Xu Santong's live ball in the five-person team was running normally. This scene was not captured in the picture. People who were busy escaping had no intention of focusing on the last two people.
Including Linda, she thought she was tripped by a stone or a branch. She thought about getting up quickly and running away. But the fall she had just caused sprained her ankle and she was unable to stand up again.
The python was getting closer and closer to her. Linda gave up and held her head in her hands, hoping that her death would not be too painful.
"Linda."
Ouyang glanced sadly at Linda, who was lagging behind because of the fall, but when he looked at the python so close, he gritted his teeth and concentrated on running forward. At this time, his own survival was the most important thing.
At this time, Yan Chu also ran into them, and their live broadcast captured the entire scene.
[There is nothing we can do, those are two pythons, it is reasonable for Ouyang to choose to retreat]
[Hey, Linda is also a teammate of David and Saidaman after all, but these two people were running at the front just now. Ouyang hesitated for a while. This is human nature, but it is very uncomfortable. 】
No one blamed Ouyang's behavior of escaping. In a critical moment, this is a normal human reaction. It was a python, not another beast, and it might have the ability to fight.
Yan Chu glanced at the surrounding terrain, barely had time to think, took out his utility knife and rushed over.
He already knew what species these two pythons were based on the animal encyclopedia. The encyclopedia said that this type of python is large and powerful, but has a fatal flaw, which is its slow movement.
Moreover, the two snakes in front of them are still full pythons, which means that their flexibility will be less than usual.
Yan Chu didn't have time to think about why the python was still hunting when it was full. All he had to do now was to rescue people.
"Hold."
Gu Xihe originally planned to run away with his sister, but Yan Chu, a man who had always been a pretty boy in his mind and relied on his face to make ends meet, actually rushed over with a knife. He couldn't help but swore a curse word, telling his sister to get out of the way. From a distance, he also rushed over with his own weapon.
