“Captain, I think you’re still growing…”
-Inner Entertainment Boy Group-
1st Floor: Xing Yue CP’s super topic has topped the charts, oh my goodness! How did this flop band suddenly get so lucky? They produced an inner entertainment “American Emperor” (top tier pairing).
2nd Floor: This all started with Shangguan Yaoguang’s awakening…
3rd Floor: What the heck is with this “awakening”? You guys are killing me with laughter.
4th Floor: It really is an awakening! He used to have a constantly bitter and resentful face, with zero ambition. Before, everyone called him a “crown prince” (someone who gets everything easily) and they were right. Now, you guys have scolded him awake, and his “selling misery” spirit has risen fiercely, directly going from a flop to an American Emperor! Are you satisfied now? (smirking)
5th Floor: Been busy lately, didn’t have time to watch the live stream. Is it really that good?
6th Floor: It’s really good! If you don’t have time to watch the live stream, you can watch the edited version that’s updated every Saturday.
7th Floor: It’s been a long time since I’ve had such a delicious meal in the inner entertainment circle! Su (domineering) gong (top), beautiful shou (bottom), mutual doting, the only choice! I say Xing Yue, get married! (heart)
8th Floor: Just enjoy the fun of shipping couples, okay? If a violent guy with a criminal record really makes a comeback, the inner entertainment circle is over. According to this logic, running out to kill someone, sitting in jail for a few years, and then selling misery can be sought after.
9th Floor: Wait, what? Can you mix these things together?
10th Floor: I think there might be a misunderstanding about Xu Chengyue hitting someone.
11th Floor: Okay, okay, as long as you’re popular, everything is good. Someone will help you whitewash whatever you’ve done. (shrugging)
12th Floor: Instead of arguing with the haters, you should continue watching the live stream. It’s sweet from beginning to end! I’m swooning!
……
Fu Yang and Xu Chengyue spent nearly two hours choosing a feng shui treasure land.
The terrain was high, dry, and sheltered from the wind.
It wasn’t too far from the river either, so food resources could be guaranteed.
[This place is really good! I just glanced at that little idiot’s (Hao Yun) live stream, and they painstakingly chose a low-lying area… Two idiots! I predict they’ll be done for when it rains.]
[That little idiot is probably going to bring his incompetent husband (Zhou Qingqing) to hug the little captain’s thigh.]
[Great, it’s a four-person couple’s date… We’re hopeless.]
[If you exclude Ye Xiao, this group is still pretty friendly, hehe.]
After collecting enough materials to build the house, it was almost three in the afternoon.
Xu Chengyue’s face was red from the sun, making his eyes look even brighter. He was panting softly from exhaustion.
“Can these things really be used to build a shelter?”
The so-called materials were actually just some readily available branches, vines, and large-leafed plants.
“Yes, you rest for a while first.”
Fu Yang had Xu Chengyue sit on the luggage case, pushing both the person and the case behind a coconut tree to block the sun.
Then, he made a net and caught the coconuts from the tree, smashed them open with a stone, and let Xu Chengyue hold one to drink.
The island had plenty of sunshine, and the wild green coconuts were huge. Xu Chengyue held one in his arms that was bigger than his head, emitting a fresh, plant-like fragrance.
“You drink first, younger brother.”
Xu Chengyue handed it to him. He was habitually taking care of his teammates first, even though his own lips were dry and cracked.
“There are plenty, you drink yours.” Fu Yang rolled up his sleeves and started assembling, fixing the branches into triangular or semi-circular structures, and then securing them with vines.
[A man who pampers his wife is the most charming!]
[Suddenly turning into rustic literature??]
[When he’s working, he’s like an honest man with a wife, kids, and a warm bed.]
[This man is really handsome!]
Xu Chengyue then buried his head in the coconut, and when he raised it again, there was a ring of white sand around his mouth.
“It’s so sweet, but there’s sand.”
[Cute! So cute!]
[Xu Chengyue is the standard idol, a stable leader, so refined like a mannequin. When has he ever been so disheveled?]
[Hehe, I’m a pervert, but he looks even better in distress.]
[Dirty bun is so cute!]
Fu Yang hooked the corner of his mouth and handed him a piece of paper, unable to resist wiping the corner of this person’s mouth, taking away a few grains of white sand on his thumb.
“Ahem, just make do for now. There should be games to replenish supplies later. When we win a machete back, there won’t be any sand.”
After he finished speaking, he pretended nothing had happened and began to seriously build the frame with branches.
Using the principles of mechanics to build a stable shelter can ensure that it can withstand the effects of natural factors such as wind and rain.
In terms of material selection, based on the physical properties of the materials, such as using strong branches and leaves.
Then cover it with leaves and grass to increase warmth and reduce heat loss.
Xu Chengyue touched his mouth. The place where Fu Yang had wiped it was still warm. After drinking the coconut water, he got up to help Fu Yang with things.
After the foundation was laid, the prototype quickly appeared.
“It’s so sturdy.”
Xu Chengyue thought that a shelter built only with branches would definitely be very shaky, but he didn’t expect it to be very stable.
Fu Yang raised his eyebrows: “This is the charm of structural mechanics.”
“Have you built one before?” Xu Chengyue asked.
“No, I’ve read the theory in books. This is the first time I’ve done it.”
Fu Yang had read a lot of miscellaneous books, and he didn’t expect that there would be a day when they would come in handy.
[So amazing! I saw that Wen Jingxin is also building a shelter over there. She should be very good at wilderness survival, and she looks like a veteran. I didn’t expect that what Shangguan Yaoguang made is almost comparable to hers.]
[That little idiot’s shelter has already collapsed! I’m dying of laughter. All that work for nothing this afternoon. Where will they go tonight?]
[Looking at it this way, tents are really good! Ye Xiao’s group is already preparing dinner.]
[They really aren’t giving any tools at all, oh my god!]
[But this looks so good! It’s like watching infrastructure construction, it’s really fulfilling.]
When it was all completed, the sun was setting. They finally finished building the house before dark by hurrying.
The two put their sleeping bags and clothes inside and arranged them, making it look very cozy.
“I’m so satisfied with the house I built myself!” Xu Chengyue’s eyes curved with a smile.
“We still have to cook our own meal later.” Fu Yang lay down directly, lazily crossing his legs. “Hey, why don’t we just sleep until tomorrow morning? That way, we won’t feel hungry.”
Xu Chengyue squatted next to him and said seriously: “That won’t do. You’re still growing, you can’t skip meals.”
“Xu Chengyue, look carefully, I’m already twenty-one years old.”
The black-haired youth who was originally lying on the sleeping bag suddenly sat up, his handsome face magnified infinitely in front of the silver-haired youth, even the tips of their noses were slightly touching.
The sudden closeness made Xu Chengyue’s heart skip a beat, and his body couldn’t help but fall backward. Fu Yang quickly wrapped his arms around his waist, and finally the two of them fell onto the sleeping bag.
“Captain, I think you’re the one who still needs to grow.”
Fu Yang then pressed down on his waist, which he could hold with one hand, revealing a mischievous smile.
Beneath him was a warm and powerful body, and the breath spraying against his ear made Xu Chengyue’s ears slightly red.
“No respect for elders.”
He quickly got up, taking a step back in a bit of a panic.
“Why don’t you sleep first? I saw fish in the stream, I, I’ll go cook.”
[Come out quickly, don’t leave us!]
[Why isn’t there an internal security camera? Damn!]
[What are they doing? Why haven’t they come out for so long? (pointing and whispering)]
[Yue is out! Huh, why is his face red and his hair messy?]
[Okay, now it’s my turn to have a yellow heart (horny).]
“Captain, the stream is on the left.” Fu Yang also left the shelter, chewing on a blade of grass, leaning against a tree, watching the dizzy man go in the wrong direction.
“Aren’t you tired?” Xu Chengyue wanted to push him back in. “You rest for a while, I can do it alone.”
Fu Yang didn’t want to admit that he was scared up by the words “I’ll go cook.”
Could Xu Chengyue’s cooking be edible?
“Let’s go together.”
When the two arrived, the riverside was already very lively.
“Zhou Qingqing!! Are you blind? The fish is right at your feet! Can’t you even see that?”
“Hao Yun, shush!”
Hao Yun instantly didn’t dare to move, his white feet sinking into the mud, clear stream water passing over his knees. “Is it next to me? Zhou Qingqing?”
Zhou Qingqing didn’t say anything, but made a gesture of catching fish and slowly approached him. The next second, he scooped up a handful of water and poured it all over Hao Yun’s head.
Hao Yun: ……
“Zhou Qingqing!! You’re dead!!”
The original fish catching was played by the two as a water-splashing game.
Xu Chengyue watched this scene with a smile. Hao Yun saw him and quickly pulled up his pants, went ashore and hid behind the captain, making faces at Zhou Qingqing.
“Blegh blegh blegh~”
Zhou Qingqing didn’t dare to touch Xu Chengyue, let alone that Xu Chengyue had Fu Yang behind him, so he could only reluctantly withdraw.
Thus, the water-splashing battle ended in Hao Yun’s triumphant manner.
[Support grabbing that red-haired creature and spanking it hard!]
[So mean, I’m Zhou Qingqing and I’m going to be pissed to death.]
[Our little red-hair is just turned twenty years old, please forgive him.]
[The captain is really pampering the little idiot too much.]
“You guys scared all the fish away.” Fu Yang lazily raised his eyelids and glanced at the red-hair who was hugging Xu Chengyue and not letting go, picked up a stone and skipped it across the water. “Now everyone has nothing to eat.”
The stone bounced very far on the water. Fu Yang threw another one irritably, this time it sank directly to the bottom.
Fu Yang: ……
“No way! There are obviously a lot.” Hao Yun ran to the shore and took a look, but because the water was stirred too muddy, he really couldn’t see anything.
“It’s okay, we’ll wait for the water to clear before going down.”
Xu Chengyue turned his head and asked: “Why don’t we make a fire here? Shangguan?”
Fu Yang glanced at Xu Chengyue’s collar, which was wet because Hao Yun hugged him, and nodded.
So the four cooperated to find materials for making fire by drilling wood.
“Can this work?” Hao Yun asked suspiciously.
“I’ve only read about making fire by drilling wood in books. I heard it’s very difficult. We’re too miserable. This broken show doesn’t even give us a lighter!!” The little red-hair knelt on the ground and cried.
“Stop yelling. You might as well try a few more times if you have the strength, and try your luck.” Zhou Qingqing grabbed his collar and lifted him up.
So the four of them studied and fiddled with the materials on the ground.
[This is really difficult.]
[This is too ancient! I’m convinced that this show has no script, and it doesn’t even give us a fire source.]
“Drill wood, fire board, kindling, support.” Fu Yang placed them in order. “The physical principle of making fire by drilling wood is to generate heat by quickly rubbing the wooden stick to achieve the purpose of igniting the tinder.”
Fu Yang sat on a stone, holding both ends of the drill wood with both hands, quickly rotating the drill wood, surrounded by flammable dry leaves, dry grass, and sawdust.
Making fire by drilling wood is indeed very difficult, but coincidentally, he had demonstrated this experiment to the younger students when he went to help Old Wang sub.
Only a certain amount of skill and speed is needed to succeed.
As the drill moved, the drill wood rubbed against the fire board to generate heat, and slowly smoke rose.
“It’s fire! It’s really burning!!” Hao Yun exclaimed.
