Chapter 99: Clarify the division of labor and find a location to build a shelter!

“My goodness, I envy Su Yuan so much!”

“Is this what it feels like to be cared for?”

“It’s so funny, fortunately Wilson Su is not interested in women, otherwise this Shura Field would be too scary!”

“Su Yuan is not interested in women? Where does this come from?”

“If he’s interested, there are so many beautiful women around him, of all types, why hasn’t he been attracted to any of them?”

“So I have a chance?”

“Hahahaha! I knew it! How can a man as fierce as Su Yuan bully a woman? Let me do it!!!”

“Male ketone retreat retreat retreat!!”

By the fire.

Su Yuan looked around in astonishment and shook his head.
“I’m fine. I don’t feel unwell. I just got choked by the smoke.”

“But you guys have been sweating so much all the way, don’t catch a cold.”

“Um, Su Mei, put on your down jacket quickly. I don’t need it. If you catch a cold, it will only cause trouble for everyone!”

“Oh…” Su Mei shyly put on the down jacket that she was about to take off and give to Su Yuan.

At this moment, the five girls were stunned.

Because Su Yuan started to take off his clothes.

“Su Yuan, what are you doing…” Su Mei avoided his eyes but still peeked at him from the side.

“I’ll heat the inside too, otherwise the moisture won’t evaporate, which will be very uncomfortable and I’ll easily catch a cold.”

Su Yuan explained, then took off his clothes again, leaving only a single layer of clothing.

He wrapped himself in two blankets, turned all the clothes he had taken off inside out, and used the heat from the fire to evaporate the moisture bit by bit.

Soon, all the clothes became dry and warm.

After putting on clothes again.

Su Yuan saw the stunned looks of Zhang Ru and the others, raised his eyebrows, and asked suddenly: “Does it look good?”

“It looks good… huh? No, no!”

Everyone else reacted instantly and looked away, but the silly girl Su Mei subconsciously spoke out her thoughts.

Su Yuan’s taking off and putting on of clothes was indeed a feast for her eyes.

“Don’t let your imagination run wild. You know this is a show, so you have nothing to fear.”

“If you were really trapped in the snow, even if someone forced you to watch, you wouldn’t have the slightest emotion!”

Su Yuan stood up, straightened his untidy clothes, and looked into the depths of the coniferous forest, saying:
“Now that we have solved the fire, we need to consider two other things, shelter and food!”

Hearing this, Zhang Ru was surprised and said:

“Ah? Are you considering shelter now? It’s only noon!”

Others were also somewhat puzzled.

The theme of this season is not survival, but escape from desperate situations.

Logically speaking, we should seize every moment to get on the road. As for the shelter, there is no need to set it up so early, right?

Su Yuan explained:
“I didn’t say to build a shelter here, but the construction of a shelter must be considered and prepared in advance.”

“After all, there are six of us, and this is a cold and snowy environment. Building a shelter is a huge undertaking, so we can’t be careless.”

“If the quality is not up to standard, there will be a risk of hypothermia at night even if there is fire!”

“My idea is that we should travel at full speed in the morning and look for food and materials and locations to build shelters in the afternoon.”

“This way, we can ensure the progress of the escape while also ensuring safety!”

Zhang Ru nodded: “Okay, you make the decision, we will listen to you!”

The others also nodded in agreement. Su Yuan said:
“Okay, now let’s divide the work.”

“Two people will boil water for drinking, two people will go ahead to find a place to build a shelter, and two people will go to the jungle to look for things like hole fungi.”

Hearing this, everyone except Zhang Ru was a little confused.

First of all, how can we boil water to drink without a metal container?
Secondly, what is the thing called hole fungus?
Su Yuan knew that most people were confused, so he explained:
“To boil water, just pick up some small stones by the river, wash them, throw them into the fire, and then put them directly into the water bottle to heat the cold water.”

“There are various kinds of porphyra. They are actually fungi that look similar to Ganoderma lucidum. They can preserve fire. We can’t carry heavy stones with us on the road, right?”

“How about this, I’ll assign the work directly.”

Su Yuan paused and said:

“Zhang Ru, you must be familiar with using stones to boil water. You can boil water together with… Shangguan Jun. Shangguan Jun has just recovered from a serious illness, so let her do something easier.”

“Xi Ziyu, you and… Ye Xiaoling, go to the jungle and look for porphyra. Remember, some look like Ganoderma lucidum, and some look like horse hooves. In short, they are things that grow on trees, so they are easy to identify.”

“Su Mei, come with me to find a shelter ahead, and see if we can find some spare food. Those few pieces of bread really won’t fill our stomachs.”

Although there were a lot of breads, each one was about the size of a fist.

But it was too fluffy and only a bite was left when I pinched it.

Even Ye Xiaoling, who has the smallest appetite, can eat four or five in one meal, and will get hungry quickly.

Therefore, finding food is also an urgent matter.

Hearing Su Yuan’s arrangement, everyone readily agreed.

Although Xi Ziyu really wanted to switch with Su Mei, it was obviously inappropriate to do so with such obvious intentions, so she didn’t say anything and just looked at Su Mei with envy.

Su Mei was quite excited. It was such a wonderful thing to have the opportunity to do something alone with Su Yuan.

Ignore the hunger and cold, this is like a date!
“OK, let’s get started, everyone be safe!”

Su Yuan clapped his hands, took the fire axe, and set off with Su Mei.

The two of them walked along the edge of the coniferous forest, heading south.

Half an hour later.

When a place surrounded by trees and with relatively high terrain appears in front of you, causing the entire open space to become a “depression”.

Su Yuan immediately decided: “This is it, a perfect place for shelter!”

Su Mei asked breathlessly: “Here? Uh, it looks like…”

“Nothing special, huh?”

“No, no, you are a professional at this kind of thing!”

“It’s okay. I know what you’re thinking. This place is not close to the mountains or the ground. The only advantage is that there are trees all around to block the wind.”

Su Yuan felt the thickness of the snow under his feet and said with a smile:
“But think about it, in a place like this with snow everywhere, the only requirement for a shelter is to block the wind, nothing else can be expected.”

Su Mei’s face was full of curiosity:
“The question is, how do we build it?”

“This place is about ten meters away from the surrounding trees. Isn’t it a bit too much trouble to move dead trees from other places?”

Su Yuan shook his head and laughed: “Who told you to use trees as a frame to build a shelter?”

“Ah? How else can we build it?” Su Mei blinked in confusion.

“Have you ever seen an igloo?”

“I have seen it…ah! So that’s how it is!”

Su Mei suddenly understood.

Su Yuan nodded:

“That’s right, let’s sleep in the ‘igloo’ tonight!”
