Chapter 106 - 106 105 If So Who Would You Choose

Chapter 106: Chapter 105: If So, Who Would You Choose? Chapter 106: Chapter 105: If So, Who Would You Choose? Yin Haoyu immediately showed support, “These look like wild chicken eggs, we have a new fresh ingredient on our menu today! Xiasha, you are really amazing, I couldn’t find any even though I tried.”

However, as much as that was said, MIn Xiasha only brought back four eggs, and although others also echoed Yin Haoyu’s words, she felt that her efforts were far less popular than the dozen or so fish Shen Jingchuan had caught.

This made her quite unhappy; she wanted to be the center of attention, but reality seemed to always fall short of her expectations!

After enjoying a rich lunch, the rain began to pour down even heavier.

Jing Hao, as the team leader, was worried as he looked at the gloomy sea before him.

“The weather on the island is unpredictable; if it continues to rain like this for a few days, we won’t be able to leave the campsite. Then, we’ll be without a sufficient source of food.”

“Then we should make some rain gear,” suggested Xu He, “Today, Qin Yan and I gathered a lot of palm fiber. After fixing the walls, we’ve got some surplus palm leaves and bamboo that can be used to make rain caps and straw raincoats.

“We are about the same age, and when we were kids, didn’t we rely on these materials to make raincoats when there were no raincoats? I think a simple version wouldn’t be too hard to make.”

Jing Hao nodded, “I can weave hats; I learned it from my grandfather when I was a kid.”

“Great!” Min Xiasha raised her hand, “Since we can’t go out in the rain anyway, let’s spend this afternoon making these at the camp. Is there anything I can do? Hao, you should assign the tasks.”

If they were not going out in the afternoon, it meant that everyone would be present in the same scene, and Min Xiasha had to make sure she was always in sight.

All afternoon, she flitted between the different positions of the camera crew, and although she occasionally added to the confusion, on the whole, she didn’t cause any real trouble.

As time flew amidst the hustle, night fell quickly.

Different from the previous night, when trying to sleep, everyone suddenly heard some noises.

Screaming ensued in the campsite shortly thereafter.

It turned out that rats had run in, scurrying over everyone’s sleeping bags.

A few of the men got up to stoke the fire, making it burn brighter, which helped a bit.

With the night’s disturbances, nobody slept well.

As a result, everyone woke up with bags under their eyes, some light, some dark.

Qin Yan didn’t know what kind of insect had bitten her the night before, but she had several big welts on her neck.

Not only her, Yin Haoyu and Jing Hao also had bites.

Qin Yan went to ask Min Xiasha for insect repellent spray, but just after a single spray, it was empty.

Yet, she smelled the strong scent of the repellent on Min Xiasha’s sleeping bag.

Qin Yan didn’t want to make a fuss about it.

But the obvious conclusion was that the insect repellent had been used up by Min Xiasha alone.

Unable to relieve the itching, everyone’s mood turned somewhat irritable.

But worse things were still waiting for them.

When Wenyan stepped out of the campsite, she discovered that the fish they had hung on the tree branches nearby the night before were all gone!

There were even remnants of sea bream on the ground!

“Bad luck, it seems our food stores have been pilfered by our neighbors in the jungle! We were planning on having fish soup this morning, but it looks like that’s not happening now.”

“No worries.” Seeing Wenyan’s distressed appearance, from a distance, Shen Jingchuan called out confidently, “I’ll go fishing again in a bit and catch even more this time!”

However, when he went to get the fishing line from his bag, he found that the mice from last night had gnawed it to shreds!

Seeing this scene, everyone was stunned.

After a bout of dizziness, Jing Hao began summarizing.

“It seems we were still too optimistic. After the successful teamwork of the past two days, I thought this challenge would be simple. After all, this island is rich in resources, and we’ve already built a camp with a place to live.

“But nature has taught us a harsh lesson. When it rains, we can’t go out, and the conditions at the camp are so primitive that mice and other insects come out at night, which could easily bring us diseases.

“Even the food we’ve managed to collect can’t be stored properly. It seems that wilderness survival is really not easy, at least much harder than I imagined. Comrades, the revolution is not yet complete, we still need to work hard!”

Once the rain had eased off a bit, everyone continued to work together, some went out to look for food, while others stayed at the camp and made rain gear and improved the fence.

It wasn’t until two days later that the sky finally cleared up. During this time, everyone had gathered firewood and built denser fences to keep out the mice.

Crafts expert Jing Hao even made traps to catch the mice.

But no one dared to eat those mice.

Luckily, apart from fish, they also caught wild chickens in the jungle.

They smoked the excess food and hung it from the roof, so they could avoid wild animals stealing their food at night.

These were all lessons learned from repeated failures.

Although the process was bumpy and much harder than expected, they eventually managed to survive on the island for 7 days.

On the last day, at the request of the show’s production team, the 7 guests had to dismantle the camp they had built.

With that, the first season of “Jungle Diary,” “Island Jungle Diary,” came to a close.

Before leaving the island, the production team held individual interviews with each guest, asking them to share their thoughts.

In this segment, the production team also hinted at the possible format for the next season.

The director asked the guests, “If next season adopts a team survival mode, who would you prefer to choose as your partner?”

Jing Hao’s response was watertight, offending no one, “This season, I am flattered to have been chosen as the captain. I am fine with anyone, so if next season adopts this mode, then everyone can choose first. Whoever picks me will be my honor.”

Xu He’s answer was, “If it were up to me, I would choose Jing Hao. Does it have to be just two people in a group? Can’t there be more? It’s hard to get things done with just two people, as you’ve seen these past few days. Wilderness survival isn’t as simple as it seemed.”

Director: “But then we won’t have enough people. We’d need to invite flying guests.”

“Then invite them. Maybe the audience would like to see some fresh faces.”

When it was Yin Haoyu’s turn, his answer was very specific, and the viewers in the live broadcast had guessed it even before he spoke.

“Xiasha, I want to choose Xiasha.”

Director: “I can see that. You’ve worked together before in a movie, the bond of revolution is different indeed. Now we’re going to interview Xiasha and see if it’s going to be a mutual choice between you two.”

When it was Min Xiasha’s turn, however, she didn’t hesitate to name ‘Alex Shen.’

However, no matter what answer she gave, the production team wouldn’t be surprised.

And they were very pleased with her answer, because the live comments erupted again.

The only mutual choice that emerged was between Wenyan and Qin Yan.

The audience was also quite satisfied with this result: “Ahhh, sisterhood is the best to ship, I love watching beautiful sisters, and getting to see two at a time.”

And Shen Jingchuan, who had caught the most attention of the live broadcast audience, was saved by the director for the grand finale.
