882 This Is Not A Fantasy Novel
“Let’s go. Pack your things now.”
The four of them walked towards the forest with the accompanying cameraman.
Seeing Lin Yi and the others leave, two groups of people followed.
“Let’s follow them. When we reach an empty place, we’ll snatch their supplies,” Li Chenxing said.
After paying, Li Chenxing naturally became the boss of the team and ordered the others to take action.
“I have no objections,” Niu Dongliang said. “Furthermore, I’ve long had such thoughts.”
Meng Chi and Qu Xingnian nodded. The latter looked at each other and said,
“I took a look just now. The supplies in our bag are only enough for seven days. If we snatch supplies from the four of them, it will last us at least half a month. This is pretty significant.”
Li Chenxing did this to take revenge for the previous embarassment.
The reason why Niu Dongliang and the other two had such thoughts was because they were thinking about their future.
The mission this time was to protect Li Chenxing for a week.
After a week, they would no longer have anything to do with him. He would have to fight his own battles as they continued on their way.
Therefore, he had to get as many supplies as possible now. This way, he could better replenish his stamina later on.
This was because the food in the wild was too disgusting. There was no way he could eat it.
“Then let’s do it,” Li Chenxing said.
“However, during the operation later, the three of you should try your best not to block my camera. If you can, don’t refute my opinion. Listen to my instructions and try your best to highlight me. My fans are still waiting to see me.”
Niu Dongliang and the other two nodded. No one said anything.
No one would go against money.
“Since none of you have any objections, let’s begin.”
“Good!”
In addition to Li Chenxing and the others, Owen and Jones were also ready to take action.
“Is everything ready?” Owen asked quietly.
Jones looked back at the cameraman behind him. Then he whispered,
“They’re all focused on him. Once we get deeper, we’ll ditch the others behind and they won’t notice. It’s just unfortunate that my weapons aren’t very handy.”
“In this kind of environment, just being able to bring a gun is already a blessing,” replied Owen, looking at Lin Yi’s back as he left.
“He has a lot of people around him. It’ll be difficult to take him away in a place like this, so don’t harp on the 4 million bounty. If you can’t find an opportunity, just kill him.”
“I know.”
The two of them packed up their things and quietly followed Lin Yi and the others.
They were preparing to pick a suitable opportunity to make a move.
However, Li Chenxing and Owen were not far away from Lin Yi’s group.
A hundred meters away, two men were also warming themselves by the fire. Their gazes followed Lin Yi and the others as they left.
“That woman should be Li Jiani from the Li family’s side branch.”
The person who spoke was a middle-aged man with a beard. He was about 40 years old and was wearing white jeans and a black jacket. There was no expression on his face.
The man’s name was Wei Jinlei. He came from the Wei Family in Yanjing and was here with his cousin, Sui Guangde, to investigate the situation here.
“It’s her. I’ve seen her once before.”
Sui Guangde was thinner than Wei Jinlei, but the expression on his face was equally sinister.
“The person standing beside her is Huang Yunhang, the eldest son of the Huang family. He has some skills.”
“I reckon that the Li family might have also noticed what happened here, so they came to investigate.” Wei Jinlei said.
“When we go in later, think of a way to stop them. Don’t let them ruin this.”
“Good!”
…
At this moment, Lin Yi didn’t know that he was being watched. He led Li Jiani and the other two towards the forest on the island.
The humid water vapor made Li Jiani and the others extremely uncomfortable.
They were only at a high level, but wilderness survival was another subject. After living for more than 20 years, this was the first time they had come to such a place, so they were pretty unfamiliar with it.
Even Huang Yunhang, who had always been at odds with Lin Yi, silently walked behind him and looked around carefully, afraid of any unexpected danger.
Lin Yi looked around and saw many birds and insects.
Although this was an isolated island, the ecosystem was more diverse than he had expected.
“Ah!”
Just as Lin Yi and the others followed the map, Zhao Yinian suddenly let out a scream.
“What’s wrong?” Lin Yi turned around and asked.
“There’s a big spider on the tree. It’s as big as my hand.”
“Don’t scare me like that,” Lin Yi continued walking without saying anything else.
“Aren’t you going to take care of it?”
“The program we are recording is called Man vs. Wild, not Man Slaughters Wild. He’s relaxing on a tree, so why should I kill him?”
“Uh… Okay, that seems to make sense.”
“All of you, cover yourself up tightly. Don’t show anything except your eyes,” Lin Yi reminded.
“If you get stung by a bug, you are in for a world of pain.”
“Oh okay. Got it.”
The group continued to walk forward. Over time, Zhao Yinian realized that although this was a variety show, he had to be serious. Otherwise, she might be eliminated at any time.
By adopting this mentality, Zhao Yinian slowly entered a calm state of mind. Even if she encountered some small insects, she would not shout.
“Lin Yi, can’t we move a little faster?” Li Jiani asked.
“I have a feeling that this place is full of danger.”
“I have the same feeling. I saw two snakes coiled around the tree just now. It’s better to be careful,” Huang Yunhang said.
“Don’t worry, even if there are snakes, they’re not poisonous. We are only passing through, so we can walk without worry. As long as we’re careful and don’t let the insects land on us, we’ll be fine.”
“How can you be so sure? What if a wild beast suddenly appears?”
“Have you read too many fantasy novels?” Lin Yi said.
“This is a deserted island. Besides snakes, insects, rats, and ants, even the appearance of something like an eel is already a sign of nature’s kindness. Do you really think it’s like a fantasy novel, where a man-eating monster will pop out of nowhere? Are you stupid?”
“Who are you talking to?!”
“Alright, alright, stop arguing. There’s no need to argue over such a small matter,” Li Jiani said.
“I don’t think it’s a big problem,” Zhao Yinian said.
“From a biological point of view, creatures at the top of the food chain usually live in the depths of the forest. Low-level creatures usually move around the periphery, so they won’t be too dangeours.”
“This kind of behavior is similar to humans. Take Yanjing as an example. The rich live in the Third Ring Road, and the poor live outside the Fifth Ring Road. There are even many people who live in Beihe Province to save on rent. It’s the same principle.”
