Chapter 85

Continuous patrols, bending over, and searching...

It wasn't until around 5:00 PM that Liu Zaitian and Haha left the rocky area. By this time, the pot they had brought with them was already filled with various sea snails and a few crabs.

...

"Zaitian! Mingxiu! Everyone~~ Haha... Look at what Zaitian and I have brought back~~!"

As they got closer to the campsite, Haha's expression became increasingly excited. In the final stretch, he ran up to Liu Zaitian and the others, shouting all the way.

"What?" Hearing Haha's shouts, everyone curiously climbed out of the house they were building. Immediately, their gazes focused on the iron pot Haha was holding.

"Did you two find all of this?" Their faces were full of surprise and joy, finding it hard to believe.

For everyone, this was a sudden and pleasant surprise! Although the roasted bananas were edible, they weren't very tasty, so if there was something better...

(*^__^*) Hehe... But... "Where did you find them?"

Gradually gathering around, their eyes fixed, everyone's face showed a look of wonder, mixed with intense joy.

At this moment, the mischievous Haha didn't cause any trouble and answered directly, "It was just Zaitian and me. We worked really hard to find them in that rocky area."

Pointing to the distance, the others glanced and then quickly turned their attention back. Because at that moment, Liu Zaitian, who had been following Haha, had also returned to the campsite.

"Brother, is this the... house you built?"

Binding two long sticks together to form a triangle on the ground, then fixing another one about three meters away, and connecting them with a stick in the middle, they covered the sides with large banana leaves to form a shelter.

"Yep, isn't Zaitian very cool!" Full of excitement, not just because of the house, but also because of the things Liu Zaitian and Haha had brought back. However, Lu Hongzhe said proudly.

"Uh~~ Indeed, very cool!" Liu Zaitian nodded and said.

Originally, they were just supposed to build a wind barrier. For the Philippines, which has a tropical rainforest climate, the temperature in this season, even at its lowest, is around 20 degrees Celsius, so there was no need to worry about the cold.

But~~ to be honest, in Liu Zaitian's view, the house they had built with such effort was a bit drafty and unstable~~⊙﹏⊙b汗！

But~!

For everyone, who was doing this for the first time, it was already a pretty good job. So, Liu Zaitian praised it directly.

"Joonho, can you handle these things? How about it?" As the oldest brother in "Infinite Challenge," Joonho's cooking skills were quite good. Also, to maintain everyone's screen time, Liu Zaitian handed the pot to him.

"No problem." Being able to help everyone was a very happy and fortunate thing for Joonho, so he readily agreed.

After a while, watching Joonho happily go to prepare the dinner ingredients, the usually cheerful Chae Hee-dong, who had been in low spirits all day, sighed deeply.

"What's wrong, Hee-dong?" Everyone looked at him, and Liu Zaitian asked curiously.

"To be honest, it's only now that I feel it's real." He shook his head with a bitter smile, never expecting the overseas special episode to be like this.

"Yeah, at first, I thought the show was joking, but seeing their complete indifference, I realized it wasn't a joke. Really! Really~!" Lu Hongzhe also sighed.

"That~~ everyone, don't worry. We have Zaitian! And it's only two nights and three days. The first day is almost over, and we're all still alive, so there's no need to worry." Seeing everyone's spirits low after Lu Hongzhe and Chae Hee-dong's words, Liu Zaitian quickly encouraged them.

"Right, everyone, don't worry. In three days and two nights, as long as we don't give up, we can get through it." In the end, it was Liu Zaitian's words that had the most impact.

Or perhaps, in this situation, the only person everyone could trust was Liu Zaitian.

After a while, Liu Zaitian also went to help Joonho prepare the ingredients, while Liu Zaitian and the others stayed to tend the fire and chat casually.

At 7:30 PM, the sky had already turned dark.

The production team had already set up lighting equipment around the area, and the bright lights illuminated the campsite.

At this moment, everyone's attention was focused on one place.

Or rather, on the iron pot bubbling on the fire.

"Joonho, is it almost ready?" Haha asked, drooling.

Today, he had only eaten a few tasteless roasted bananas. By now, his stomach was growling.

So, under everyone's watchful eyes, Joonho opened the pot lid, stirred it a couple of times with the large chopsticks Liu Zaitian had made from branches, and then said, "Yep, it's ready!"

Hooray...~\(≧▽≦)/~

Everyone's spirits instantly lifted, and they watched intently as Joonho lifted the pot off the fire and opened the lid.

Instantly, a thick steam rose with the opening of the lid, and in the steam, there was a hint of ramen flavor.

This was because, due to different tastes, after some debate, they had added a packet of ramen seasoning to the pot.

"(⊙o⊙) Wow~~!" Putting a small piece of snail meat in his mouth and chewing slowly, Haha's face showed a look of amazement, "It's really delicious, completely delicious."

"Right! Haha is telling the truth this time." Nodding in agreement, because of hunger and fatigue, everyone had lost the desire to talk in the afternoon, but now, in response to Haha's exclamation, even the usually stern Park Myung-soo agreed.

"Really, being able to eat such food in such a place is a kind of fate. But... I sincerely hope the production team won't arrange such a special episode again." The first half of Chae Hee-dong's words were fine, but the second half turned into a complaint about the production team.

O(╯□╰)o~~

In response, the production team, not to be outdone, added a subtitle for free: "To maintain everyone's will to survive, we will arrange more such special episodes, O(∩_∩)O haha~ no need to thank us~!"

After dinner, it was already 8:00 PM. But since Kim Tae-ho had completely abandoned his original plan, everyone didn't know what to do.

So, after chatting for a while, they made a unanimous decision~~ go to sleep!

However, as they climbed into the "house" that Liu Zaitian found unstable, they didn't notice that the sky, which had been full of stars, had turned completely dark.

And so... at 11:30 PM~

Crack!

A brilliant flash of lightning illuminated the sky, and the thunder rumbled.

A few seconds later...

Huge raindrops began to fall from the sky.
