After taking a few swigs, Jiang Kaiyuan turned around and saw Jiang Lingxi picking something up under a tree.
Not bothering to wash his face, he found a new leaf and folded it into a triangle. He scooped up some stream water, disinfected it and filtered it. Then he walked over and saw clearly what Jiang Lingxi was picking up.
A small round yellow fruit, "Longan? There are also longan here? But you won't be full just by eating this!"
Jiang Lingxi paused in picking up the fruit and looked up at Jiang Kaiyuan.
Jiang Kaiyuan felt that her look was a bit like looking at a fool.
"Did I admit my mistake?"
Jiang Lingxi gathered the fruits she picked up, took the cup made of leaves from Jiang Kaiyuan's hand, drank some water and cleared her throat before saying, "Soapberry, also known as false longan, and it's only spring now. These are all last year’s fruits, are there more that are moldy, black and rotten on the ground?”
She didn't expect to encounter such an unexpected surprise near the second drop-off point. This soapberry tree grew deep in the jungle and had never been picked. The ground was covered with fruits that had fallen over the years. Although Most were rotten, but some looked still usable.
It's best to use it to wash your hands, face and even hair.
"In addition to real longan, there are also fake longan!" Jiang Kaiyuan looked knowledgeable and defended himself in a low voice, "Longan can be eaten all year round. I thought it would also bear fruit at this time."
As soon as these words came out, there were several barrages in the live broadcast room.
"I have always suspected that Jiang Kaiyuan might be a young master from a rich family, but now it should be confirmed."
"God, you can eat it all year round. Longan in China doesn't mature until July at the earliest. It's only April now, so everything you eat at other times is fresh!"
When Jiang Lingxi heard this, she couldn't help but look at him again.
When they met for the first time a few days ago, she could tell at a glance that the child's family background must be very good, so that he could grow up to be so wealthy and worry-free.
But now she wants to add another sentence, she doesn't know the suffering in the world.
Thinking of the guy mistaking soapberry for longan, she warned in a serious tone: "Don't eat randomly in the next week."
Jiang Kaiyuan nodded subconsciously, then realized, "Is this fake longan still poisonous?"
"Not too stupid."
"Then you still pick it up?"
"But it can wash your hands, face and hair."
"Can it still be used as soap?" Jiang Kaiyuan was overjoyed when he heard this.
You must know that they have to live in this busy jungle for a week. During this week, they don't have to think about taking a bath, but if they can't clean their face and hair, it will be uncomfortable to think about it.
"Then pick up more." He squatted down and picked up.
Jiang Lingxi pinched his shoulders and lifted him up, "What I just picked up is enough. I don't need to pick up more. The sun is going to set and we have other things to do. Also, aren't you hungry?"
Jiang Kaiyuan was reminded like this, and his stomach immediately responded, gurgling twice.
The nervousness and excitement of survival in the wilderness at the beginning also subsided a lot, and the suppressed hunger surged, "A little. I'll go see if there are any fish in the creek?"
Jiang Lingxi wanted to say whether she had just watched it, but she was now familiar with Jiang Kaiyuan's character. This guy would definitely have to confirm with her own eyes whether he would give up and simply let him go.
Looking up at the sun that was doing its best to shed its last rays of light, Jiang Lingxi picked up some dry firewood and came back.
When Jiang Kaiyuan came back from the creek with nothing, he saw a pile of dry firewood already placed in the open space. He coughed slightly awkwardly, "It seems that there will be no fish tonight," and saw Jiang Lingxi taking the matches again. Starting to light the fire, Qiqi Aiai asked: "What can I do?"
"Pick up more firewood. This is not enough. It's better to pick up a few thicker and longer branches."
Jiang Kaiyuan nodded, and when he turned around to go to work, he thought of something and turned around, "I'll look for something to eat nearby."
Jiang Lingxi paused for a moment before nodding obediently, "Go ahead."
After spending some time raising the fire, the sun finally shed its last rays and fell below the horizon, and the sky suddenly darkened.
When Jiang Kaiyuan ran back following the firelight with a pile of dry firewood picked up nearby, his eyes couldn't help but fall on the figure sitting in front of the firelight.
The orange fire light dispelled the cold silence of the night, but that figure, which was obviously not strong, brought him more security.
It was the first time in his life to sleep outdoors. Although he knew that there were cameras following him and there were thousands of viewers in the live broadcast room watching his every move, he was actually still a little scared and nervous.
Until he saw Jiang Lingxi waiting for him to come back.
"Sister Xixi..."
Jiang Lingxi stirred the fire in front of her and turned her head when she heard the boy's cheerful voice, "Did you find something to eat?"
Jiang Kaiyuan's joy suddenly pressed the pause button, "No."
As soon as the sun set, the jungle became pitch black. If it weren't for the light coming from the camera behind him, he would have even been tempted to run back.
Looking for something to eat has long been forgotten.
"Sit down and have a rest." Jiang Lingxi didn't expect him at first. She got up and picked out a few thick and long sticks from the dry firewood Jiang Kaiyuan had picked up. She used the vine branches that were randomly pulled nearby as ropes and struck three times. Five divided by two, a shelf was built over the fire.
Then she filled the small metal pot with stream water and hung it on the shelf, and the water was boiling.
Jiang Kaiyuan looked on for a while, then stretched out his hand to test the firmness of the shelf, and then he felt relieved.
"Sister Xixi, it seems we can only drink water to satisfy our hunger tonight!"
Jiang Lingxi glanced at him, "Who said this water is for you to drink?"
"What is that for?"
"Cook soapberries and wash your face."
Jiang Kaiyuan: "..."
Then, he watched helplessly as Jiang Lingxi boiled the water in the metal pot, put the washed soapberries in, boiled it for more than ten minutes and let it cool, then took the trouble to knead and squeeze out the soapberries. soap, then boiled water again, and finally washed my hands and face carefully with warm water and soap.
The steps were so complicated that not only Jiang Kaiyuan's eyes were dizzy, but even the audience in the live broadcast room couldn't stand it.
"We are already surviving in the wild, do we still need to be so delicate?"
"I think Jiang Lingxi is just being pretentious. Her eyes are so hungry that she doesn't see Yuanyuan. Shouldn't she try to find something to eat at this time?"
"Should this be called the self-cultivation of a female star? She must be meticulous and strict even in the wilderness. If nothing else, I think she is quite self-disciplined."
"If it were me, I would probably fall asleep with dirty hands and a black face."
"Can't you boil the water for drinking first?"
"I guess Jiang Lingxi really can't stand the oil smoke on her face. If it were me, I would rather be thirsty than clean myself up first."
Just when the barrage in the live broadcast room was different, Jiang Kaiyuan finally drank the boiling water from the pot.
While drinking, he said: "Sister Xixi, please go to bed first. I will keep watch for the first half of the night."
There was no place to rest, so they were probably destined to sleep by the fire that night.
At least it's warm.
Jiang Lingxi saw him drinking water and unable to control his head falling, "I'll keep it."
Jiang Kaiyuan patted his chest, "I am a man, how can I let you live with a girl..."
"Believe me, it will be harder to guard in the second half of the night."
Jiang Kaiyuan thought for a moment that he had to watch from midnight to dawn, which was indeed difficult.
"Then, shall I sleep first?"
"Sleeping alone."
Three simple words made Jiang Kaiyuan fall asleep leaning against the tree trunk behind him within ten minutes.
Jiang Lingxi saw that his sleeping posture was okay, so she withdrew her gaze and looked quietly at the fire in front of her, adding a piece of firewood to it from time to time.
There was no sound of talking, and in the jungle at this moment, apart from the sound of the breeze blowing through the leaves, there was only the sound of burning firewood.
The night is getting quieter and quieter.
Everyone in the live broadcast room was watching this scene, but they didn't feel bored. They even couldn't bear to turn off the live broadcast when they lay in the warm quilt.
A barrage expressed everyone's thoughts: It felt like transitioning from a survival live broadcast room to a hypnosis live broadcast room.
However, the silence lasted for a short while, and the scene suddenly changed sharply, and the camera was in chaos. It seemed that this incident did not allow the photographers who were following the scene to react. When the camera finally stabilized, everyone saw a trace of silence. A figure walking quickly in the dark night.
Just as he subconsciously held his breath, he looked at the figure and suddenly stopped again. Then he took off the bow on his back with one hand and took out an arrow with the other hand.
Then, he took the bow in one second and released it without hesitation!
There was even a piercing sound in the live broadcast room that could not be ignored.
It wasn't until the arrow disappeared beyond the lens that it could not be captured that everyone in the live broadcast room subconsciously blinked and resumed breathing.
This was the first time in their lives that they forgot to blink or breathe while watching a man shoot an arrow.
I also want to know more urgently, did the arrow just hit it, and what did it hit?
