Chapter 641: 307

Stitching required certain conditions to be triggered, specifically, a cut on the body that was at least three centimeters long. In line with the principle of your well-being coming first, and safety and health being paramount, you would be forcibly taken to the infirmary for stitches as soon as such a cut occurred. After being stitched up, you could continue.

Lin Wu patted Shuihua on the shoulder and left with Maya. When they came out of the infirmary, Lin Ma saw thirteen sled dogs they were training fighting with each other, and both knew that Shuihua’s mission was basically hopeless.

Qinglang had a good nature and wasn’t unlucky, his choice was ice fishing, which held no danger of needing stitches. So-called ice fishing meant drilling a hole in the ice to fish, and it was more or less the same in Joy City. The difference was that in Joy City’s version of ice fishing, you had to use ice blocks to fish.

The judge provided Qinglang with a three-meter-long ice column; Qinglang had to use Little Knife or other means to carve out a fish hook at the tail end of the ice column, hang bait on the hook, and then fish. During this time, the ice column could not crack or break; otherwise, it wouldn’t reach the location of the fish.

The most difficult part was the fish hook, if the hook was too big, it couldn’t hold a red worm. If the hook was too small, a fish biting would snap it right off. Additionally, the ice column would slowly melt in the flowing water.

Lastly was Hong Yi’s steel frame snowmobile, a contraption most people had seen before. It was about pushing the cart on a slope, and once the sled had gained momentum, you’d lie down on it, and as it descended, it would pick up speed. The driver would control the direction and balance to complete the race.

Hong Yi’s steel frame snowmobile task was also to slide from Point A to Point B, which was fine. You couldn’t fall off halfway down the slope, which, although steep, wasn’t an issue. The requirement was to finish within the stipulated 45 seconds, which wasn’t too demanding.

The problem with Hong Yi’s steel frame snowmobile was that at Point B, she must drag the snowmobile up the slope to reach Point A. That wasn’t the end of it; if she failed the mission and wanted to start over, she had to drag the heavy thing all the way from Point B to Point A again.

Lin Wu said, "Look at you, just dumbly waiting while others suffer as much as they possibly can."

Hong Yi lay on the icy slope, a rope slung over her shoulder as she struggled to climb to the top. Hearing Lin Wu console Maya in such a manner, Hong Yi protested, "I’m not suffering one bit."

Lin Wu said, "Then I won’t tell you about how miserable Qinglang and Shuihua are."

Hong Yi lamented, "I’m so miserable. This slope is steep, but not that steep." If it had been extremely steep, too steep to climb, Hong Yi could have just given up. The slope was like Blue Star delivery group’s big data; you could make money, but not a lot. Yet without earning, there’d be no money at all. It was exasperating.

The most wretched thing was, after her first fall, Hong Yi felt she had a chance of success. After the second fall, she felt her chances of success had slightly increased. This was her fourth attempt. Failure was the mother of success; with three ’mothers’ behind her, Hong Yi believed she must succeed this time.

It was just like stocks. After being duped, newbies learn to read candlestick charts, then after the next duping, they learn to follow the news. After yet another loss, they learn to analyze trend graphs, and after being duped again, they begin to watch the movements of northbound funds. After one more setback, they start studying the "I Ching." However many times they are duped, they keep on getting tricked. The reason was the same as with Hong Yi; she was a competitor, not a judge.

"They don’t have it as bad as you," Lin Wu laughed heartily.

"Die, Lin Wu," spat Hong Yi like Frenzy scrambling fast, aiming to bite Lin Wu’s foot, which scared Lin Wu into backing up, falling, and tumbling downwards. Hong Yi laughed triumphantly, took a deep breath, and continued to trudge forward under her burden.
