Cold, Hunger, Wild Beasts
Andy held the wooden stick in his hand and kept rubbing it!
According to the books and television, this was the standard technique of starting a fire by drilling wood!
In fact, in order to learn this skill, Andy had deliberately tried it the night before the show!
After spending an hour, he successfully started a fire according to the book!
Therefore, when he came, his confidence was greatly increased.
However, reality played a huge joke on Andy!
As soon as they arrived in the wilderness, it rained heavily!
And this rain continued until night!
This completely messed up his wishful thinking!
He did not know what to do now!
The only thing he knew was to light the firewood in front of him!
However!
Half an hour later!
Other than a little white smoke, there were no signs of sparks!
The success of the technique of drilling wood to make fire depended on the final effort after the wood was rubbed to produce thick smoke!
As long as the strength and speed did not decrease, sparks would be produced!
Then, he quickly placed the sparks into the tinder and blew it rhythmically to increase the circulation of oxygen. The sparks would then successfully ignite the tinder!
It was a pity!
Andy didn't care about using force or accelerating!
There were no sparks at all from the place where the smoke was rising!
No matter how many times he tried!
There were even blisters on his hands, but there were no signs of sparks!
Of course, he did not give up!
Two hours later!
At the last moment!
He had finally made it out of the spark!
Andy excitedly threw the sparks into the tinder!
Then, he blew at the tinder in an attempt to increase the oxygen content beside the spark!
Unfortunately, it only lasted for three seconds!
The spark was extinguished!
Andy's eyes turned from confusion to despair and then anger.""This damn rainy day, everything is wet! It's impossible to light a fire!"
Jenny finally couldn't hold it in anymore.""I'm really cold and hungry!”
Andy looked at Jenny and frowned. He said,""Everything will be fine! I'll light the fire immediately!"
Jenny looked at the wooden stick in Andy's hand and shook her head."The whole forest is wet now. You can't light a fire, right?”
"Yes!" Andy said with certainty.
"You mean your wet wood? Or was it tinder with water droplets on it?”Jenny's tone softened." You've been trying for an entire night. You must have blisters on your hands, right?"”
Andy put his hands behind his back and shook his head."How can a simple exercise cause blisters?”
Jenny shook her head." Don't lie to yourself. Even if your hands bleed, you won't succeed tonight!" It was impossible in this wet weather!”
Andy remained silent.
Jenny wasn't a fool!
"I know," Jenny continued,"you want to appear more capable in front of me.”
"And I know your intentions!”
"This doesn't mean that you're not capable. It's just that we're unlucky!”
"So, let's leave!"
As soon as Jenny finished speaking.
Andy shivered like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. He shouted,"Leave? You want to give up?"
"That's right! Let's give up! If this continues, we won't be able to make it through tonight! Moreover, they might even fall seriously ill! If we fall sick in the wilderness, we will only be eliminated. Instead of that, why don't we suffer less pain!”
Jenny said decisively.
"But this is only the first night!" Andy's face changed.”
He walked towards Jenny and forced a smile on his face."Haven't we encountered similar difficulties in academia?
"But in the end, we all broke through the barrier! Today was no exception! We can get through this! Isn't it?"
Jenny couldn't help but shake her head." Academies are academics, and bodies are bodies. My brain can deal with more problems than ordinary people, but my body is not as good as ordinary people!”
" Most importantly, we didn't eat a single gram of food at the start of today's show. According to biological theory, our immune system is already in a state of decline when we don't eat. If we face the cold at this time, the consequences will be unimaginable!”
"You don't feel cold now because the exercise of drilling wood to make fire made your blood flow faster and improved your body temperature. But now, you've stopped! It will only be colder than before!"
Jenny's words made Andy's heart turn cold.
At this moment, he could indeed feel the coldness coming from his body!
Especially after exercising! As the heat faded away, the cold air became even more pressing, causing him to feel a trace of pain.
However, this bit of coldness did not make him give up!
The cold was nothing compared to the reward after three months and the huge bonus after living for a year!
One had to know that this was the reward split from the world's audience!
He knew that there had been people who, even if they did not survive to the end, had earned tens of millions of dollars because of the tips!
Even if they worked hard for their entire lives, they might not be able to earn this wealth!
"Jenny, I promise you, as long as we get through tonight, everything will be fine!”Andy squeezed out an ugly smile."Other than fire, there are other ways to keep warm!”
"For example, if we hug each other, we can share our body temperature! I promise that I won't touch you. You like me too, don't you? What we are lacking is that layer of paper that should have been pierced through!”
"I'll lay my cards on the table now. As long as we persevere and get a considerable sum of money, I'll propose to you after I get out. I'll give you a grand wedding! Isn't this what you wanted?”
Jenny was stunned.
She didn't expect Andy to say such a thing.
However, it was just as Andy had said, the two of them had feelings for each other.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have accepted Andy's invitation to come to the wilderness with him.
She couldn't help but soften her heart when she saw the man in front of her who she liked.
She said,"Okay..." Alright then! But only for one more night!"
Hearing this, Andy was about to rejoice.
Right at this moment!
"Roar ~~"
A long roar came from the darkness.
