“Yan Chu, are you awake?”
When Yan Chu calmed down and went out, the sky was already dark. A bonfire had been lit outside the tent. A group of contestants discussed how to deal with the food ingredients they had just caught.
The live broadcast time of Dou Xiong’s publicity was 10 a.m. tomorrow for half a month. According to the original plan, they would arrive at Fu’er Star last night. The one day free in the middle was a process for them to adapt. After all, the show needed audiences. If these players were blinded not long after the beginning, it would also affect the show’s popularity.
They failed to reach Fu’er Star last night just because of this accident. Instead, they came to this strange planet after a long interstellar drift.
In the beginning, 007 told him to be careful to hide and prevent being filmed by the live broadcast ball. The live broadcast had not started, so the ball would not operate yet. Otherwise, those players would not attack him recklessly when he was ready to accept the memory.
After all, the audience liked truth, goodness, and beauty no matter which era. It was necessary to argue or have a girlfight to attract attention, but it was vicious to attack an injured player, and it would affect the accumulating popularity.
The tents were brought to the spaceship by the contestants before they set off. Each contestant had one. However, due to the spaceship’s malfunction, many items were damaged. Now there were only five tents left for the nine players. At least eight of them needed two people to share a tent. Yan Chu was wounded. The man’s luck in living in a tent alone would probably be left to him. Just before leaving the tent, he carefully inspected the inside of the tent, and he was the only one.
This act seemed to give preferential treatment to the wounded, but it was not necessarily a good thing.
Now they were living on a deserted island, and they did not know whether there would be unknown species on this Federation’s unregistered planet and whether there might be aggressive wild beasts. In fact, at the beginning of the game, it was best to ally.
Two or even a group of three or four, first jointly got rid of the strongest players, broke them through one by one, and then PK within the group. Usually, except that Gu Xixi and Gu Xihe were brothers and sisters, the other players were not familiar. Living in a tent must be more intimate than other candidates. Yan Chu did not have that advantage anymore.
In addition, before the start of the game, he was a strong contender for the Star Online championship. Many players regarded him as a strong enemy. At the moment, he fell off the list, which most players would prefer to see.
Yan Chu suddenly felt that it was a good thing that he was injured. At least in the minds of other players, an enemy whose attack power got weakened might not be worth mentioning.
Among so many contestants, the only one who clearly showed a favorable impression of Yan Chu was Sheng Xiaoxing, a little girl with a round face. Seeing Yan Chu coming out, she patted the seat beside her without thinking about it and asked Yan Chu to sit down quickly.
The players around the campfire each looked unto his own and vaguely evaluated Yan Chu’s current state.
“Yan Chu, how are you feeling now?”
Sheng Xiaoxing looked at her idol up close. He was so, so handsome. His skin had no flaws, which made her feel inferior as a woman. She finally realized the feeling of fainting from him being gorgeous enough.
Seeing Yan Chu, who was 10,000 times more handsome than in the video, Sheng Xiaoxing suddenly felt she was 100% correct to participate in the game without telling her big brother.
“The right arm is basically useless, but I am lucky to be alive.”
Yan Chu’s right hand got dislocated. Now the bone was connected back but could not be used. Otherwise, it might be dislocated again, which would be more troublesome when the moment came.
Before the critical moment, he did not want to use the only Internal Building Pill so quickly. Not to mention that no one knew that he was actually left-handed. Those programs he broadcasted live were for the audience, and naturally, there was no need to use his trump card.
Except for Sheng Xiaoxing, who still had some concerns, the other players could not hide their happiness, but they all felt that Yan Chu, even with his high fan base, would not pose too many threats in this competition.
“When you were resting just now, we caught some shellfish and crabs in the shallow sea, and Xu Santong caught two snakes outside the jungle. We were thinking about how to deal with it?”
They were currently lacking the necessary seasonings and cooking tools. The only thing on the spaceship was the pot left by the previous people, and there was not much salt left. Apart from that, there was nothing left. They could not cook delicious food with these things.
So there were only two ways, to cook in a pot or roast directly on the fire. Of course, the taste was certainly not much better.
“Shells and crabs can be boiled and eaten directly in seawater.”
This craft was the skill he learned from local residents when he traveled with Zhong Li on an island tour in the world of the little wolfdog30little wolfdogyoung men who were brought up by wealthy and older women.
They directly boiled the fresh seafood with the seawater in the sea area where it originally lived. It was not only not fishy, but also very delicious, with the taste of the sea.
Their current problems were not only the shortage of condiments but also the shortage of drinking water. Boiled seafood with seawater could solve this part of the problem.
As for the snakes, he had dozens of ways to cook them, but he lacked seasoning on his hands, so he could only merely put salt and roast them.
He seemed to have to search for some available spices when the game started tomorrow.
It was not very difficult for them, outdoor live broadcast adventurers, to survive in the audience’s eyes. How to live well, exquisitely, and feel like a seven-star hotel in the wilderness was their ability.
The original self’s request had the desire to win this competition. Of course, Yan Chu would not hide his clumsiness. Fortunately, the Animals Encyclopedia and Plants Encyclopedia that he purchased from the system mall before had a place to play.
Unfortunately, available ones in the current world were only these two skills. Now Yan Chu had both the discovered and undiscovered animal and plant encyclopedias in the Federation inside his mind. He could be said to be a walking dictionary. He also has confidence in living with many people on this dangerous deserted island.
“Is seawater boiled shells edible?”
In the interstellar era, many people were not particular about eating. They often eat three meals a day with nutrients of various flavors. When they participated in the wilderness challenge, it was naturally impossible for the official to let them bring nutrients.
So when Yan Chu said this, the blonde woman named Linda refuted that the seawater was so bitter and astringent, and the cooked food could not taste so delicious.
“This method should be feasible in practice.”
Gu Xihe glanced at Yan Chu, picked up the only pot in the camp, and went to the seaside to fill the seawater. Then he poured seafood such as shells and crabs into the pot and waited for it to boil.
Gu Xihe’s swimming ability was the best, so many of these shellfish were caught by him. Since he believed Yan Chu’s proposal, it was difficult for others to say anything.
As if afraid of Yan Chu’s astonishing words, Xu Santong did not tangle with the cooking method of the snake. He skinned the snake, revealing the white snake meat. He then cut it into sections, skewered it on the shaved wooden sticks, and roasted it on the fire.
The contestants had not eaten for a day because of their accident and got stranded on the uninhabited island. After they smelled fragrant in their nose, their stomach could not help growling regardless of the taste.
Sheng Xiaoxing covered her stomach and seemed a little embarrassed in front of her idol.
“Now that there’s such an accident, Douxiong sent a message today saying that those who want to quit still have a chance. Does anyone among us want to quit?”
David looked at the other eight players present and asked with an inquiring face.
The roasted snake oil dripped onto the firewood, making crackling noises and splashing sparks. None of the people present spoke.
“Yan Chu, you are seriously injured. Don’t you plan to quit? We are enemies in the game, but we are also friends in private. Before the Federation’s search and rescue team finds us, I believe other contestants will be responsible for your food and drink like me.”
Players who did not participate in the competition only needed to wait for the arrival of the search and rescue team. Yan Chu had broken an arm now and quit halfway. Even his sunspots could not find any reason to attack him. This fact was totally an unforeseen and insurmountable circumstance.
“This game is intriguing. My fans have been waiting for so long. If I quit like this, they will be disappointed.”
Sheng Xiaoxing, who was on the side, wanted to say no after listening to Yan Chu’s words. As his fan, his health and safety were the most important, but Yan Chu’s expression was firm and persistent under the candlelight, which made people more moved, so she did not have a chance to say anything.
Sure enough, she was the one she liked. Even if Yan Chu encountered such setbacks, he never wanted to shrink back. Such an idol made people like him more and more.
Sheng Xiaoxing’s young face was enthusiastic from beginning to end. Even a fool could see her thoughts.
She could participate in this competition because of her reputation as a walking plant encyclopedia on the Internet. However, many people had discovered that the island had many plants that never had appeared in the Federation just by observing this deserted island. In this way, Sheng Xiaoxing was rather unlikely to understand these plants thoroughly.
Moreover, the other party’s physical capability was notoriously weak. Such a teammate might not be able to provide help but was more likely to hinder them. Therefore, other players did not care much about her closeness to Yan Chu.
“In that case, after this meal and tonight, we will be competitors. Of course, I hope we can still be friends after the game.”
David said the public courtesy. In this live broadcast competition, players were not allowed to attack and hurt each other. Only those dangerous creatures could hurt players. Generally speaking, the possibility of casualties was not much. Of course, being reduced to falling on an uninhabited island might add all kinds of accidents. In a word, these players should be able to survive the end of the competition. At that time, the bonus had fallen to the champion, and the rest of them had no competitive relationship. If you had the same interests, it was not impossible to be friends.
No one refuted David’s words. Before the contradictions deepened, everyone needed to maintain apparent harmony.
“Doctor, nine accidental intrusions, whether or not to obliterate them?”
Inside the tidy laboratory, there was a mechanical female voice.
An old man with unkempt hair looked at the indistinct figures in the night and pushed his eyeglass on the bridge of his nose. His eyes did not fluctuate.
