I am a Big Villain
Chapter 123: Im Surviving On A Deserted Island 8

As dawn broke in the sky, there was already some noise in the camp.

Xu Santong and Ou Yang were sorting their belongings out and prepared to enter the forest with weapons.

"Yesterday, you were in danger. Why don't we go in together today? There are more people, and we can rely on each other when in danger."

David had already got up and trotted around the beach for some time. He relaxed his muscles and bones. When he saw Xu Santong and Ou Yang walking into the forest, he stopped them and spoke.

"You all?"

Ou Yang had doubts in his eyes. He saw that Linda and Sai Daman, obviously ready in the other two tents, also understood David's idea.

It seemed that Gu Xihe and Gu Xixi uncharacteristically contacted Yan Chu yesterday. It made the three players from the Western Federation also feel a sense of crisis. They said they were worried about the danger in the forest, but they actually wanted to join forces with them and gain more advantages during the competition.

It was a pity that this was not a competition that considered overall quality. What needed to show in the program was the interest in the content broadcast in one's live broadcast room and the ability to attract audiences. If it was just a program of dangerous competition, the only survivor was the champion, which was different.

But it was not useless to form a group. It was also an easy way to attract the audience by capturing stronger prey and performing more thrilling pictures with the power of the team.

Moreover, if the team cooperated well, it was easy to share their popularity. Because if you always appeared together, it meant that you could appear in both your own live studio and others' live studios, which was an opportunity to increase exposure.

Therefore, Ou Yang and Xu Santong thought about it. The two did not reject David's proposal and chose to go into the forest with them.

The prize of one million star coins was a temptation, but they had to survive until that time. Yesterday, they encountered two attacks in the forest. With three more teammates, at least they could ensure more resistance when the crisis comes.

The five people were ready to go. After holding their self-defense weapons, they opened the live broadcasting room at the same time.

【Are Xu Santong and Ou Yang joining forces with the Western Federation group? I wonder what Yan Chu and Gu Xihe will do and whether they will also unite into a team】

【Uh, Yan Chu also taught them how to identify poisonous or non-toxic plants yesterday, didn't he? I suppose…】

【Upstairs81Upstairswhich is commonly used in post comments and forum comments, refers to the person who responds to the same topic post one step ahead of you, sometimes referred to as LS, this is a competition, which is actually quite understandable】

Although it was not even six o'clock in the morning federation time, many viewers of StarNet were waiting on the live broadcast platform for the live broadcast to begin.

Many were fans of the most popular Yan Chu and Gu Xihe. Because their live broadcasting rooms had not begun yet, they straightforwardly came to the rooms of the five other contestants who had already started live broadcasts to join in the fun.

【This is a live broadcast game in the wild. No one said it was impossible to form a team, and no one stipulated the number of people to assemble one. Yan Chu has not teamed up with Sheng Xiaoxing. Besides, the forest is so dangerous. Isn't the more people better?】

【That's right. What kind of group do I say? It's safe to stay together. Usually, in horror movies, it's a sign of dead people. I think the players are stupid】

【Excuse me, what do you mean?】

The Douxiong live broadcast room had resumed its liveliness again. The news on StarNet was almost swept away by this new planet that contained countless precious extinct species. Yan Chu and others who were also accidentally stranded on the deserted island were close to the Federation's Red Star. They were almost all the keywords of online search.

The traffic of Douxiong these days had gone from more than 30 billion at the beginning of the live broadcast to more than 160 billion now, and only one day had passed.

After five people entered the forest for half an hour, Yan Chu finally got up.

When Yan Chu got up, the first thing he did was to see how his distilled water was.

Before sleeping last night, he made several simple distillation sets with some glass wine bottles left in the spaceship.

He poured some seawater into an empty bottle, with the weight being about the extent that no seawater got poured out after being placed horizontally. Then pinched a few pots with enough soil to put into the wine bottle and put yellow sand in it. And then, put the wine bottle flat, inserted it in the mud pot with yellow sand, and poured seawater. The seawater would wet the sand, slightly higher than the sand surface.

The same went for the other side, except the bottle on that side was empty.

The mouths of the two bottles corresponded to each other and ignited under the soil basin containing the seawater bottles. After the seawater boiled, the water vapor would flow to the other bottle and condense into drinkable water droplets.

Before going to bed last night, Yan Chu used almost all the empty wine bottles. When he got up in the morning to check it out, there was not much water in each bottle, but it could barely add up to more than half a bottle of drinking water.

【6661666awesome; powerful. Last night, I was still thinking about what Yan Chu was doing*17doing*from 干 [gàn] that can mean as to do or to f*ck (vulgar). Now it seems that my IQ is almost the same as that of the Cadia Riverlands, which is low】

【My Yan is so handsome. Those challenges in the past were too easy, so he never showed his true level. Now that he is living on a deserted island, so he finally lets us see what a serious field explorer looks like】

With a barrage of praises, Yan Chu cut the pushu into pieces, poured the distilled water into the pot, poured the cut pieces in, then added sliced ginger and a few slices with a scallion. After the chicken was boiled, he removed the chicken and cooled it with cold water.

Then put the pushu into a clean pot and stir fry. Before frying, he brushed the bottom of the soup pot with the cut chicken butt. There was not much oil, but it was better than nothing.

After the pushu changed color, he poured the chicken pieces into the pot and put ginger slices and scallion leaves. Without cooking wine, he replaced it with the only remaining beer bottle. He did not pour much because this beer bottle was supposed to belong to nine people.

Without sugar, Yan Chu replaced it with the fruit juice that was quite sweet and had no strange taste and then sprinkled it with salt and some Sichuan pepper powder.

Finally, he added water and slowly let the food in the pot simmer.

Yan Chu thought it would be better to go into the mountains today to replace more seasonings.

Then he set up his distillation unit again while the others were still asleep and the pushu chicken was not cooked yet so that when he came back from the forest, he could harvest half a bottle of clean water that he could drink directly.

Sheng Xiaoxing and the others were all awakened by the smell of stewed pushu chicken. They neatly got up from their sleeping bags, rubbed their faces, chewed a few leaves to refresh their breath, and then sat in a row, waiting for Yan Chu to share the meal.

There was not enough drinking water for the time being, let alone the extravagant behavior of washing your face and brushing your teeth. Gu Xihe and Yan Chu had discussed it. In the future, the food they caught would be handled by Yan Chu, so the siblings were not ashamed to eat the best food at Yan Chu's side.

"So delicious."

Sheng Xiaoxing took a piece of chicken and put it in her mouth, her eyes suddenly brightened, and her teeth chewed faster.

The chicken was so well-cooked and soft that even the bones were stewed and crisp. And the saltiness was moderate. Although it lacked some necessary seasonings, it was still good enough. Because it used fruit juice instead of sugar, there was an inexplicable faint fruity aroma.

The pushu had also been well-cooked, and the enemy soldier captured to extract information would open his mouth with a sip. It was salty and fragrant. With another sip of the soup containing all kinds of the essence, they would levitate heavenwards at this time.

【Actually, I think it is totally unreliable for only Xiaoxing to say how delicious it is. She is a brainless fan, so I propose to send leftovers in a doggy bag to me. As a food critic, I must be able to make an intuitive and fair judgment of Yan Chu's craft】

【Aaaahh, what kind of condiments are those? I have chicken, but what is the ginger called Pushu? I can't buy them】

【Does Yan Chu need saliva? I have saved a bucket and can send it to him at any time】

Not only Yan Chu and Sheng Xiaoxing's fans drooled at it, but also Gu Xixi's fans, who claimed to be the clearest streamers in the live broadcasting industry and considered themselves the calmest star chasers. But from yesterday's stone-plate roast snake meat to today's pushu stewed chicken, they could not help but could not control their mouth. While watching StarNet, they also had to eat something to quench their thirst.

【I don't believe how good Yan Chu's cooking is. But looking at Little Xi's eyes and swearing by my 24K titanium alloy dog eyes, her eyes bent 0.7 to 1.3 radians when she ate the pushu stewed chicken, and her eating and chewing speed was 1.3 to 1.5 times faster than that of her previous live broadcast】

This one was the hilarity of data maniacs.

【That's not necessarily true. In the past, Little Xi and Big He did live broadcasts together. Maybe it's not that Yan Chu's craftsmanship is too good, but Big He's craftsmanship is too bad. After all, he is a master at catching prey but is always known to burn food】

【Impossible. Gu Xixi used to be my immediate senior sister. She used to be like this when she was in the school cafeteria. She had the same expression whether she was eating a single-order stir-fry or a nutritional supplement. The taste of our school cafeteria is good. Yes, Yan Chu's craftsmanship is at least better than the chef there】

The audience had a heated discussion about Yan Chu's craftsmanship. The most popular hope was that Yan Chu would open a restaurant when he returned to the Federation, using ingredients they had never seen before. They were sure to join in.

"Nonsense."

In the Federation Central Laboratory, a group of old professors gathered in the laboratory yawning and watching the live broadcast.

This person was a high-level talent reserved for the Department of Botany. Was it reasonable for him to open a restaurant?

But his craftsmanship looked quite good. Could they enjoy his filial respect as a teacher if they took him as an apprentice?

The old professors were deadly earnest on the outside but swallowed saliva anticipatedly in their hearts.

"Shall we go this way today?"

Yan Chu made an inspection tour around the edge of the forest, pointed to a particular direction, and said to Sheng Xiaoxing.

"M-hm! Don't worry. I will definitely protect you today."

Sheng Xiaoxing nodded repeatedly. Today she wanted to catch two chickens, no, three chickens. Regardless, she must make Yan Chu feel that she was a more reliable companion than Gu Xixi and Gu Xihe.

【Did Yan Chu point to the direction Xu Santong and his colleagues took more than an hour ago?】

The audience who had stayed in Xu Santong's live broadcast room for a while because they did not start the live broadcast said doubtfully.

【Not necessarily. I think the leaves of these trees are the same】

Some viewers thought they were wrong.

Gu Xixi glanced at the place Yan Chu pointed, walked forward a few steps, saw Xu Santong and his team's unique X mark on a specific tree, and glanced at Yan Chu.

"We're going in this direction today, too. Why don't we go together? Yesterday, Xu Santong met a python in the forest. Maybe it's safer to have more people."

After Gu Xixi finished speaking, Gu Xihe nodded in agreement.

"Your hand is still injured. If you are in danger, we can also protect you."

Gu Xihe thought that he was an excellent cook. If something happened to him, he and his sister would have to rely on his poor skills again.

Sheng Xiaoxing pouted and wanted to say she was also mighty, but reason told her that it was the safest choice to go with Gu Xihe and his sister, so she did not say no.

The four people, or precisely speaking, Yan Chu and Gu Xixi, had the same goal, to form a temporary alliance and walk towards the road where Xu Santong and others went.

The road was all walked out by people. Because no one had stepped into this forest in the past, the thorny jungle was full of thorns. If they wanted to move forward, they needed to rely on wooden sticks or machetes to open the way.

Therefore, in the forward direction, several people could rely on the marks they left, and doing so could also be identified by the orientation of the bushes and the chopping marks of some branches.

Xu Santong and the others obviously left much earlier than they did, and they couldn't replace it in a short time. In this direction, Yan Chu found some usable plants along the way. It was considered easy to walk.

【Xu Santong's live broadcast room has been closed again. This time even the live broadcast room with David and the other three has also disconnected. What's going on? Do they have signal shielding in their live stream?】

Many viewers in other rooms had to flock to Yan Chu's room again because the live broadcast was disconnected.

【It's Xu Santong and Ou Yang again…Isn't it truly the live broadcast balls closed by themselves…】

【I don't know, but I frankly want to say that Yan Chu and the others are taking the same direction as Xu Santong and the others at the beginning. Do you see that tree? It looks like a tilde sign. Just in Xu Santong's room, we laughed at the fact that it is a skinny tree】

【Ah, really? Is it possible that Yan Chu and the others will also go to the area that may block the live broadcast signal after a while? Isn't that all nine players blocked? How long will it take to recover this time?】

【When they participated in Douxiong's tourney, they should not have canceled the function of their optical brain connection network. Now people can't contact them. Otherwise, they can still be notified so that they can quickly change direction and stay away from the place where the signal is blocked】

The viewers in the live broadcast were anxious about the possibility that Yan Chu and the others might experience the interruption of the live broadcast, and they couldn't help complaining about the unlucky nature of Xu Santong and Ou Yang. How could they be able to meet those two people on the island where the signal could be blocked?

【Restored, Xu Santong's live broadcast room's already resumed, but the signal is so poor, the video quality is messy, and the screen goes black repeatedly from time to time. I don't know how long it will last】

【They separated again? 】

The netizen who saw the message just mentioned Xu Santong. Others wondered if they had been attacked by some animal and dispersed.

【No, five people are together, but the live broadcast room of the other four people is still black】

It was a bit strange. Usually, since the five were all together, it made no sense that one person's live broadcast ball could connect to the signal, but the other four could not.

【Desperate, Yan Chu and the others are getting closer and closer to the place where Xu Santong's signal just ended】

【Ah, snake! Python! 】

【Go to Xu Santong's room quickly. The five of them got targeted by two giant pythons】

【WTF. It's terrible. Yesterday, Xu Santong said they met a giant python, and we didn't see anything. But this time, it was filmed directly in the live broadcast room, and there was one more. I missed Xu Santong and them yesterday. I went back to replace help this time】

The number of people in the live broadcast room of Yan Chu and others who were still very active suddenly decreased by half, and they all went to Xu Santong's live broadcast room.

There had never been such a breaking point since the broadcasting of the program. Many viewers could not help but feel an increase in adrenaline when they heard the word "Python" and felt both thrilled and worried for Xu Santong and the others.

As previously described by netizens, the picture in Xu Santong's live broadcast room was very erratic. It appeared and disappeared from time to time. It might be because Xu Santong and the others were tired of running for their lives, and the plants in their current environment were too dense, so the movement of the live broadcast ball was often disturbed.

For a while, the screen broadcasted the appearance of Xu Santong and others rushing for their lives, and then the screen went black. The pythons chasing after the five people appeared in the picture when the screen got restored.

Yellow big eyes with vertical pupils, sharp fangs, a snake mouth opened wide with saliva, the massive body, the abdomen rubbed the rough ground, and the tail occasionally swung over some branches and trunks, bringing down a large number of small trees.

The power was so terrifying that it was no wonder that Xu Santong and the others did not even dare to face the two giant pythons, so they turned around and ran away.

【They seem to be running back, and after a while, they will meet Yan Chu and the others】

【Those two snakes are too long. How many small animals must they eat? I feel that even if nine people gather together, they may not be the opponents of those two pythons】

The audience did not care about watching the excitement anymore. This trouble was no joke. Today, they had to witness the death of nine players in the belly of the python, especially the timid girls. They were so scared that they did not dare to watch the live broadcast.

"Did you hear anything?"

After picking some star anises, Yan Chu stopped and asked Gu Xihe.

He was a martial artist, so his hearing was better than theirs.

"There seems to be some noise, but it's a little far away."

Gu Xihe told them not to talk and move around, concentrating on hearing.

"Could it be Xu Santong and the others?"

Gu Xixi frowned and ran towards the signs without thinking.

Seeing her move, the remaining three naturally followed suit.

"Don't come here! Run!"

It was only seven or eight minutes away, and they saw Xu Santong and others from a distance, but the pythons had not yet appeared.

Xu Santong knew that with the strength of the nine of them, they would definitely not be able to deal with the two pythons. For now, the best way to rescue them was to get rid of them and escape their sight.

Snakes were not dogs. They hunted mainly by sensing heat. As long as they widened their distance, they might be saved.

Therefore, Xu Santong did not expect Yan Chu and others to come, too. At best, it was only to make the heat source bigger or to add more food to the pythons.

"Help! Come and help us!"

Others reacted very differently. They all thought that with more people, perhaps they would be saved.

It was a little earlier than Yan Chu had imagined. It was only the second day.

After almost two shouts, the heads of the two pythons finally appeared in Yan Chu's line of sight.

【Have you noticed why the live broadcast rooms of Yan Chu and his four people were still showing normally in this area? Who else remembers where Xu Santong and their live broadcast were disconnected before?】

【Is it the time to consider these details? Those are two giant pythons. Why didn't Yan Chu and the others run away? I'm almost dying for him】

At this moment, all the viewers watching the live broadcast on StarNet were about to hold their breath, fearing that blood would splatter in front of the screen in the next second.

Unknown if the pythons were tired of this game of anaconda chasing the villain or what, but finally, they chose to exert their strength, and their crawling speed increased, getting closer and closer to the five people in front.

Ou Yang's eyes were a little dull for a moment, and then he hooked his feet vaguely the next second and tripped Linda, who had been keeping the same speed as him. Unprepared, she stumbled and fell to the ground.

At this time, the python was only more than 20 meters away from her, and the stench brought by the opening and closing of the snake's mouth made people dizzy.

This action was very hidden. Only Xu Santong's live broadcast ball was operating normally in the team of five. This scene was uncaptured, and the people who were busy escaping for their lives had no intention of focusing on the last two people.

Including Linda. She also thought that she had tripped over a stone or a branch. She wanted to get up quickly and run away. But the fall just now caused her ankle to sprain, and she could not stand up again.

The python was getting closer and closer to her, and Linda gave up, holding her head in her hands, hoping that her death would not be too painful.

"Linda."

Ou Yang looked sadly at Linda, who fell behind because of the fall, but when he looked at the python that was close at hand, he gritted his teeth and focused on running forward. At this time, his own life was the most important thing.

Yan Chu and others also met them at this time, and their live broadcast completely captured the scene.

【There is no way. Those are two pythons. It is reasonable for Ou Yang to choose to cower】

【Alas, Linda is also David and Saidaman's teammates, but these two were at the forefront just now. Ou Yang hesitated for a while. It's human nature, but it's very uncomfortable】

No one accused Ou Yang of escaping. At a critical juncture, this was a normal human reaction. It was a python, not other beasts, and it might have the ability to fight.

Yan Chu glanced at the surrounding terrain, barely had time to think, took out his utility knife, and rushed over.

Just now, according to the Animal Encyclopedia, he already knew what species these two pythons were. According to the encyclopedia, this kind of python was large and powerful. But it had a fatal flaw: slow movement.

Moreover, the two snakes in front of them were still fully-eaten pythons, which meant their flexibility would be worse than usual.

Yan Chu did not have time to wonder about why the fully-eaten python would hunt, and now all he had to do was to rescue people.

"F***."

Gu Xihe originally planned to run away with his sister, but Yan Chu, a man who had always been a pretty boy in his mind, rushed over with a knife. He could not help but utter a foul word. He asked his sister to hurry away and rush over with his own weapon.
