The campfire blazed brightly, illuminating the entire shelter.
Two Shadow, sitting side by side, were reflected on the cliff face by the light of the campfire, flickering and swaying.
"I thought it would taste awful, but it's actually quite good. You're amazing!" Meng Yanyi, looking at Ling Yi with admiration as she ate the crispy-on-the-outside, tender-on-the-inside roasted wild boar.
Ling Yi's lips twitched slightly. "Sis, can we talk about something?"
"What's wrong?"
"Could you please stop praising me?"
"Why?" Meng Yanyi asked, her beautiful eyes wide Dawei confusion.
You've praised me way too much today.
Being praised is a good thing, but being praised all the time can feel awkward and make you feel embarrassed.
"You're already amazing, you're the most amazing person I've ever met, why can't I praise you?"
here we go again.
"Oh, why are you embarrassed to be praised?" Meng Yanyi covered her mouth and laughed.
"I feel a little embarrassed by all the praise, and besides, if you keep praising me like this, you'll have plenty to praise in the future!"
"So, you can be even more amazing?"
"That's right, this is nothing!"
Ling Yi didn't dislike being praised, especially by beautiful women, but Meng Yanyi kept repeating the same few words, which made Ling Yi feel really awkward.
"But I don't know anything, and I'm always holding you back. All I can do is encourage you more!"
"There's absolutely no need for that!"
Ling Yi had also experienced Meng Yanyi's way of speaking firsthand; she really said whatever came to mind, mouth first, brain second.
Although it's true, it can sometimes be both funny and sad.
"By the way, how did you become so amazing? Of all the boys I've ever met, none are as amazing as you." Meng Yanyi was just slow to react, but she wasn't stupid.
Ling Yi was almost constantly busy that day, and he did all the physical labor. If it were an ordinary person, they probably wouldn't have been able to keep going.
The key is that he is strong, accurate in throwing Shitou, and can do almost anything: Fire Starting, cook, build camps.
He even saved her once by the river.
Especially in the afternoon, when she was alone in the shelter waiting for Ling Yi to return, she felt a sudden loneliness and fear of the unfamiliar environment.
The sounds of Beast echoed around them from time to time, and coupled with thirst and hunger, Meng Yanyi almost broke down.
And when Ling Yi returned carrying the last rays of the setting sun, it shone brightly in Meng Yanyi's eyes.
"Do you usually talk like this?"
"What's wrong?"
"What you said not only makes me hate you, but also offends other people. And aren't you afraid your boyfriend will get jealous?"
"Boyfriend? Where would I get a boyfriend?"
Hmm? Hasn't Meng Yanyi and Young Master Qin gotten together yet in this world?
Where did you hear this news from?
Isn't that what everyone says online?
"No, please stop reading those unreliable Eight Trigrams." Meng Yanyi her eyes.
Then, looking at Ling Yi, she asked, "Since you're so capable, do you have a girlfriend?"
Ling Yi shook his head. He had just arrived in this world, so where would he get a girlfriend? As for his original world, he was just a 996 office worker, busy every day with no free time at all.
He'd be even less likely to have a girlfriend.
"The cost of dating is too high these days, I can't afford it," Ling Yi said casually.
"That means you just haven't met the right girl yet!"
Ling Yi didn't want to continue the topic at this moment, sensing that the atmosphere was getting a little awkward.
They're here to Qiusheng, not to find love on a reality show.
So he changed the subject, saying, " Sister Meng, how long do you think we can hold out?"
"You're so amazing, you can definitely last a long time!"
At this point, Meng Yanyi blinked and asked, "You're asking this because you're worried I won't be able to keep going, right?"
Ling Yi nodded, making no attempt to hide his thoughts.
" Sister Meng, to be honest, I want to win first place. I hope to become a regular guest on the show and keep winning."
Anyone who believes this is a virtual world is a fool.
If Ling Yi wants to know the secrets of this world, he must keep winning; only by winning can he avoid being eliminated.
Only then will we have the opportunity to explore the secrets of this world.
Most importantly, Ling Yi wanted to know how the production team had selected him, and whether anyone knew his identity as a time traveler.
Is all of this a coincidence, or was it deliberately orchestrated?
What are the underlying schemes and plots involved?
Ling Yi now has a cheat code; if he wants to win, staying on the show shouldn't be difficult.
But he was worried that Meng Yanyi and would quit, so he needed to know Meng Yanyi's attitude.
The show's rules stipulate that teams must consist of two people, and no one can be eliminated; if any one person is eliminated, the entire team is eliminated.
One more thing: since my system is only activated after entering the movie/TV world, is it possible that it can only be activated and function within the movie/TV world?
Regardless, Ling Yi didn't want to be eliminated.
" Ling Yi, don't worry, as long as I can persevere, I will definitely persevere and I will never give up on my own."
He paused, then added, "Anyway, it doesn't matter to me where I participate in the show."
"But to be honest, if it were someone else, I doubt they could have lasted this long. The key is that you're really good."
Ling Yi nodded. Regardless of whether it was true or not, as long as Meng Yanyi had this attitude, that was enough.
As for the future, we'll talk about that later.
Clapping his hands, Ling Yi stood up and said, "You should get some rest. I'll process the wild boar meat; otherwise, if it's left out overnight, it might not be edible tomorrow."
"I'll help you. You can't do everything by yourself."
"Okay!" Ling Yi didn't refuse; it was clear that Meng Yanyi genuinely wanted to help.
The best way to preserve wild boar meat is to make it into smoked meat.
Previously, Ling Yi definitely wouldn't have known how to make smoked meat.
But now!
With a thought, Ling Yi opened his system interface.
[ Diligence System ( Ling Yi )]
[Stamina: 11 (The average person's Limit is 10)]
[Strength: 12 (The average person's Limit is 10)]
[Agility: 9 (The average person's Limit is 10)]
[ Diligence Points: 362 (100 Diligence Points allow for one Lottery )][Click to Lottery ]
[Skills: Throwing lv1 (11/100), Climbing lv1 (0/100), Logging lv1 (0/100), Building lv0 (33/50), Hunting lv0 (3/100), Weaving lv0 (1/50), Fire Starting lv1 (7/100), Cooking lv2 (7/200)]
[Technique: Breathing Technique lv0 (0/50)]
This was Ling Yi's harvest on the first day. Just looking at the series of skills in the [Skills] section, Ling Yi felt a strange sense of accomplishment.
To Ling Yi's surprise, the first skill to reach level 2 was Cooking.
This is also the main reason why Ling Yi's grilled meat tastes so good even without any seasoning.
After reaching level 2 in Cooking skills, Ling Yi not only learned many Cooking techniques, but also how to identify and preserve ingredients.
And the methods for making various seasonings.
This includes salt production methods.
Perhaps with the help of the system, he will Tianzhen be omniscient and omnipotent.
But the prerequisite is that they cannot be eliminated.
Ling Yi first gathered some branches and built a frame next to the campfire.
Then they started cutting the pork. Each piece was hung on a rack by Meng Yanyi, and the two worked together to make it quite fast.
By the time all the pork had been processed, it was completely dark.
Ling Yi laid out a layer of dry grass inside the shelter and Meng Yanyi, "Make do with this for now!"
"This is already very good; I'm not that fussy."
Ling Yi believed this; Meng Yanyi was indeed different from the celebrities he knew.
Right now, the two of them were sitting at the entrance of the shelter, looking up and seeing a sky full of Stellar Transformations.
"So beautiful!" Meng Yanyi exclaimed.
Ling Yi nodded; it had been a long time since he had seen such a beautiful starry sky.
The countless brilliant Stellar Transformations seemed to be right beside me, as if I could reach out and touch them.
"I wonder what kind of world this is," Meng Yanyi said again.
"If you want to know what kind of world it is, you'll have to find a way to leave this deserted island and find a populated area."
Should we build our own ship?
"Let's stabilize the situation first and see how it goes. If any ships happen to pass by, that would be great. If not, we'll probably have to build our own." Ling Yi nodded.
"Can you build ships?"
You'll get it then!
Meng Yanyi blinked. This wasn't the first time she'd heard Ling Yi say that. In Meng Yanyi's opinion, when Ling Yi said that, it meant he knew it.
She was about to praise Ling Yi for being so capable, but remembering that Ling Yi forbade her from praising him again, she swallowed the words back.
Then he asked, " Ling Yi, do you think this place could really be Ice and Fire Island from the Heavenly Sword World?"
"If it really is Ice and Fire Island, then we're in trouble."
"Why not? We can leave Ice and Fire Island with Zhang Wuji and the others!"
" Zhang Cuishan and his group lived on Ice and Fire Island for over ten years, which means that no ships approached during those ten years."
"Do you really want to live on this island for over ten years?"
"That's true."
"Moreover, if Xie Xun, Zhang Cuishan, and Yin Susu really are on the island, then we are in real danger, because they all know martial arts."
"Especially Xie Xun, if he knew we were here, he'd probably think we were here to steal his Dragon-Slaying Saber!"
"There's one more thing!"
"What?"
Ling Yi looked at the starry sky and said, "It's a matter of time flow. The time flow in this world is synchronized with the time flow in the real world, or there's a certain ratio between them."
"If it were synchronized, then it would be even more impossible for us to survive in this world for ten years."
"After all, the production team can't allow us to live in the virtual world indefinitely."
Meng Yanyi nodded. "That makes sense!"
However, Ling Yi felt that the time was probably not synchronized.
I just don't know how the live stream will work if the times are out of sync!
Meanwhile, on the other side of Ice and Fire Island, Zhang Cuishan and Yin Susu were running at Extreme Speed.
To be precise, it was Zhang Cuishan who was carrying Yin Susu and running wildly.
However, neither of them seemed to be in good condition.
Zhang Cuishan's mouth was covered in blood, and he staggered as he ran, clearly seriously injured.
Yin Susu's face was pale, and her gaze was somewhat unfocused.
"It's unbelievable that Xie Xun still has such Battle Power after eating so many poisonous mushrooms. I misjudged him," Yin Susu said in a low voice.
"It's not your fault. After all, it's not a deadly poisonous mushroom; it only has a stun effect. However, he's blind and can't see anything anyway. As long as we get far away, we'll be safe."
At this point, Zhang Cuishan's steps suddenly became unsteady, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
" Cuishan, how are you?"
"It's okay, I can still manage. We need to move further away!"
