Chapter 583: Chapter 583: Making a Fool of those Big Shots!
Days before, Jiang Li had predicted that today would bring a great challenge.
The specifics of the predicament could not be precisely calculated, but using Little Liu Ren divination, the signs told her that heading to the water in the Northeast would be favorable.
So the idea to build a boat and head to the lake’s surface was born, prompting everyone to work hard for two days, felling so many trees.
Fortunately, she had read about constructing simple rafts in an encyclopedia, and in her previous life in Daqi, she had overseen the renovation of her family’s ancestral home, gaining a thorough understanding of how those ingenious buildings were crafted by the carpenters.
Though rushed and less refined, the resulting raft was serviceable nonetheless.
Aware that Chen Manman and her group had been surveilling them, she had everyone go to bed early and moved all the supplies onto the raft at three or four in the morning when Team J was sound asleep, leaving only one tent behind.
The tent took up too much space; it was better left behind than taken along.
Besides that, their raft was equipped with everything they could need.
Jiang Li even built a small cabin for sleeping, lined with soft mats recently acquired from the show’s crew, and containing two plump parcels filled with daily necessities and various foods for the days ahead.
At the stern stood a small stove for boiling water as needed.
It was akin to a mobile castle.
Just then, the camera focused on the raft, starkly contrasting it with the neighboring live stream.
The first live stream was bustling with people surrounding the lake, making all sorts of noise and commotion, with a few even coming to blows.
In the second live stream, there were blue skies and white clouds, a warmth in the air, tender green water plants, leisure boats drifting idly, mountains in the distance, and a sense of peaceful passage of time.
[!!!!!!]
[Holy shit, Jiang Li’s team has escape to the lake. No wonder no one could find them!]
[Awesome! To think they hid here, who would have guessed!]
[Jiang Li actually managed to build a boat. So powerful, who can outsurvive her?]
[Damn, Sister Li has turned Wilderness Survival into a water resort getaway.]
[Who wouldn’t be envious of this?]
Gu Shengrong had almost gone the entire night without sleep, eagerly awaiting the morning news that would confirm Team Q’s elimination.
He had it all figured out.
If Team Q and that girl really were eliminated, he would be the first to not let He Pingzhang off the hook.
Such a worthless game, always targeting one young lady!
Next, he would throw Gu Yu into the water for not thinking of helping and instead muddying the waters.
But when the second live stream appeared, his aged eyes nearly popped out of his glasses.
Not a single person from Team Q was missing!
And they were all bustling and lively!
Looking at that brand-new, fully-equipped boat, the old man laughed in admiration.
"Truly her style, to come up with such a brilliant strategy."
And to think she had those grown men running in circles!
The old man’s laughter woke the dozing Zhou Xu beside him, who opened his eyes and immediately asked, "Has that charlatan been eliminated yet?!"
With a snort, Gu Shengrong handed over his tablet, "I win, you owe me one hundred yuan."
The moment Zhou Xu saw the live broadcast, he was utterly flabbergasted.
That’s not right. NovelFire.cσ๓
You can play the game this way?!
Inside Shuiyun Temple, upon seeing Jiang Li and her team successfully escape, Daoist Chang Rong, upon seeing Jiang Li and her team safe on the lake, shouted excitedly.
Daoist Shuiyun, who was lecturing at the time, opened his eyes to see his young disciple dancing with a tablet in hand and let out a resigned sigh.
"Chang Rong, you’re not paying attention again."
Hearing this, Chang Rong stuck out his tongue and shook his little head, "Master, you’ve also said that I’m dull-witted and not suited for this profession. You might as well teach only Senior Brother. He’s smart and will be able to inherit your Daoist Temple someday."
To the side, Changqing frowned upon hearing this.
"Chang Rong, you’re spouting nonsense again."
After saying this, he bowed to his master, "Master, why don’t you go and rest for a while? Leave Chang Rong to me; I’ll make sure to teach him properly."
Daoist Shuiyun stroked his silver beard and nodded, "If that’s the case, then I will go to the guest chambers in the back hill to discuss the Daoist scriptures with the guest who has come to recuperate. You both take a break, then prepare for the evening lessons."
"Yes."
Chang Rong pouted.
"There’s an evening lesson still. There are only three genuine Taoists in this temple, and Master is still so serious."
"Chang Rong." Changqing scolded him again with a furrowed brow, "You shouldn’t be so rude."
Chang Rong stuck out his tongue, climbed off the cushion, and immediately raised the tablet in his hand.
"Senior Brother, look quickly. The fairy sisters are so impressive; it’s like they knew someone was going to catch them and they just built a boat and escaped onto the lake. She can even make a boat!"
Seeing the quite attractive raft on the screen, Changqing was slightly surprised.
However, what surprised him even more were the currents of water breaking through the raft.
His expression became solemn, and he took the tablet from Chang Rong.
"This water..."
"What’s with the water?"
"The lake water here is full of spiritual energy, but it shouldn’t be." Changqing was puzzled, "I have studied the detailed terrain of Dragon Ridge Island, and its Feng Shui isn’t particularly good, yet the Feng Shui of this lake is very auspicious, as if it doesn’t belong here at all."
Chang Rong couldn’t understand and his chubby little face was all scrunched up together.
"Senior Brother, what are you talking about? Chang Rong doesn’t understand a single word."
Changqing thought for a moment, then handed the tablet back to him and rubbed his head, "Go back to your room and watch. I am going to look for some books in the attic."
This island was too strange; it must be hiding some secret.
...
Lake surface.
Gazing out at the boundless lake, Jiang Yan spread his arms wide, embracing the breeze in his arms.
However, before he could let out a relaxed shout, a water bird suddenly attacked, fiercely scratching his already wild-grown hair.
Jiang Yan screamed, flailing his arms and legs about, causing the raft beneath him to sway as well.
Bai Lu, frightened, cried out and jumped into Jiang Li’s arms.
Shang Shuyue, expressionless, drew a handkerchief to chase away the bird.
However, after Jiang Yan took a deep breath and stood up, he found everyone looking at him with a surprised gaze.
Jiang Yan touched his face, puzzled.
"What’s the matter? Was I cool when I chased away the bird?"
Everyone: "..."
Yu Li covered his mouth and nose and stepped back before clearing his throat, struggling to look directly at him, "Young Master Jiang, you have bird droppings on your head."
Jiang Yan: ???!!!
"Damn it!!!"
He stomped on the raft again and even brought his head close to Jiang Li.
"Is it a lot? Hurry up and wipe it off for me, aaaahhh, I can’t stand it, aaaahhh."
Jiang Li, disgusted, stretched out his foot and pushed him away, then tossed him a paper.
"Deal with it yourself."
