Chapter 830 Revenge Was A Dish Best Served Cold…
Under the gaze of a group of people, Director Liu Guobin stretched out his hands bitterly and rummaged on the beach. He was a bit fat, so when he squatted on the ground and rummaged for the key, he looked even chubbier, which made people laugh.
When he heard their laughter, Liu Guobin was bitterer, and he could only speed up quickly, trying to find the key and leave this d.a.m.n place soon. But after digging for a long time, he was all covered with sand, but still couldn’t find the key.
“You are hiding it too deeply. I’ve looked all over the place, but I didn’t even see a trace of the key.” The director complained.
“The key?”
Gu Jianguo, who had been laughing next to him all the time, was surprised to hear it. Then he took out a small yellow cloth bag from his trouser pocket, looked at it, slapped his forehead, and said, “Oh, I forgot to put the key in.”
On hearing his words, Liu Guobin staggered and almost pa.s.sed away with anger.
Everyone around laughed.
“You guys, are you crazy?” Liu Guobin started at them resentfully.
“OMG!”
Seeing Liu Guobin’s hateful expression, Zheng Weilian, the oldest and funniest one in the show, immediately looked scared. While waving his hands, he looked at Liu Guobin, pretending to be scared, and said, “It’s over. Look at the angry eyes of the director! Oh, I’m so scared. I don’t know how Liu Guobin will punish us in the future.”
“Liu Guobin’s eyes are so terrible.”
Zhang Junhe immediately agreed, “I think the director should be blaming us for punis.h.i.+ng him too lightly, and he wants us to increase the intensity of punishment.”
“Don’t be afraid.”
Liu Qings.h.i.+ stood up and said to everyone, “Maybe we will be punished in the future, but today is the day for us to punish him. Since he wants to punish us in the future, then we can’t go easy on him today.”
Everyone nodded. Although Liu Qings.h.i.+ was not confident when he proposed the advice, everyone knew that the punishment would come soon as soon as the director left and it would be too late for them to regret it then, so now they had to teach the director a good lesson!
“Come on.”
In response to everyone’s support, Liu Qings.h.i.+ said, “Bury the key in the sand and ask our director to look for it again.” Everyone immediately became active again. They blindfolded Liu Guobin and plugged his earplugs.
Then they buried the key.
Without any choice, Liu Guobin could only search again.
After all, this was a highlight in the show. It was always bad to get angry in front of the camera. Besides, this show would be more fun when there was a little conflict and confrontation. There were no others on this deserted island, so it was indeed the only feasible way to fight against the director team.
While staring at everyone bitterly, Liu Guobin quickly rummaged about in the sand.
After he knelt on the sand and looked for it for half an hour, Liu Guobin finally found the key to the jet ski.
As soon he got the key, he got up and rushed to the beach without saying anything, and ran away on the jet ski. They didn’t chase after him. They just watched Liu Guobin running away in embarra.s.sment and laughed.
The director was gone. Everyone laughed out loud.
They rested for a while on the beach until noon.
“It’s about time.” Liu Qings.h.i.+ summoned everyone and said, “Get ready to find ingredients for lunch!”
With that, they returned to the station together, ready to see what was left of what the program team had given yesterday, and then a.s.signed their respective tasks.
However, after returning to the station, they found that everything was gone.
“What are those things?” Ying’er asked in surprise.
“Where’s the pot?” Liu Qings.h.i.+ was also dumbfounded.
They looked around, but didn’t find anything. In the end, they turned their heads and asked the staff of the program team.
“There is no one else on this island. Isn’t our stuff stolen?” Liu Qings.h.i.+ asked.
“No.” The staff shook his head and said, “It was an order from the director. After the director returned, he told us to put everything away and ask the directors to take them away.”
Everyone was speechless.
The memory of teasing the director was still fresh.
However, no one had expected that revenge was a dish best served cold in the blink of an eye.
All the pots and pans were gone.
They didn’t even leave the boxes of instant noodles, let alone the seasoning package Fang Qiu had saved when he cooked abalone noodles for everyone this morning. There was nothing left now.
What could they do? Everyone was just stunned. They looked at each other and didn’t know what to do.
At last, they habitually turned to look at Fang Qiu.
Although it was only one day and one night, Fang Qiu’s deeds had made everyone silently regard him as the backbone. It seemed that there was no problem that Fang Qiu couldn’t solve.
“It’s just a meal. Easy-peasy.” Fang Qiu smiled.
Hearing his words, everyone immediately cheered up and looked at Fang Qiu expectantly.
“What to do?” Liu Qings.h.i.+ asked.
“You might not notice it.” Fang Qiu turned his head to glance around, and said, “Actually, there are many coconut trees on this island, not just those on the sea, but there are also large tracts of coconut trees on the island. You may not have noticed that there are some traces in the land where the coconut trees are located. Judging from the traces, there should be coconut crabs on this island, which is a legendary delicacy.”
Upon hearing it, everyone’s eyes lit up immediately.
They were all celebrities. Naturally, they had eaten coconut crabs quite often, so they knew how delicious coconut crabs were.
As soon as Fang Qiu finished it, they couldn’t help but begin to swallow.
“However, the wild coconut crab is an endangered animal, so we can’t eat it.” Fang Qiu suddenly said just when everyone recalled the deliciousness of coconut crabs.
When they heard it, they felt that the news was just like a fishbone in their throat.
They couldn’t help but roll their eyes immediately.
“Why did you mention it when we can’t eat it?” Liu Qings.h.i.+ gave Fang Qiu an angry look.
“Then we can only grill fish.”
Fang Qiu shook his head and said, “Sharks are definitely not eatable. Besides, the weather is too hot and the temperature is too high, so the shark meat is probably rotten.”
“How about this?”
“We can cut off the shark’s fin and eat it. After cutting it off, we will drag the shark to the other side of the island so that it won’t pollute our station.”
“The shark fin is not enough for us. Liu Qings.h.i.+ will be in charge of fis.h.i.+ng. I will go offsh.o.r.e to fish for seafood. Others will go to the island to find some drinking water. We’d better find a way to filter it. Our water is not enough now. We can just wash the food with sea water to add a bit of salt.”
Hearing his words, everyone nodded.
Then, Liu Qings.h.i.+ was responsible for the distribution.
Everyone started to work on their own. Fang Qiu walked around the island first, and after making sure that there was no danger nearby, he found a coral reef area and dived to fish for seafood.
He was lucky.
Liu Qings.h.i.+ used the same method that Fang Qiu had used yesterday and caught a lot of fish. When Fang Qiu was fis.h.i.+ng in the sea, he found some abalones and a prawn weighing three kilos. Everything was ready.
Everyone returned to the station, They were all greedy and excited when they saw so many ingredients.
However, when they were about to start cooking food, they realized that the fire was gone!
“Where’s the fire?”
“D*mn, did they take the fire away?”
“It is outrageous. They could take away the pots and pans, but they should at least leave the fire?”
“They are so cruel to us!”
The six MCs complained bitterly at the camera and accused the director one after another.
“This is so bad. If there is no fire, so many ingredients are useless. We can’t eat them raw, right?” Liu Qings.h.i.+ said with a wry smile.
“Actually.” Just when everyone was extremely distressed, Song Yaqi suddenly stood up and said, “We can focus on the ignition.”
“Focus on ignition?” Ying’er was surprised.
“What is the focus of ignition?” Zheng Weilian and Zhang Junhe were puzzled.
Liu Qings.h.i.+ and Huang Huachao also looked at Song Yaqi curiously.
“Smart.” Standing beside Song Yaqi, Fang Qiu smiled and complimented.
Song Yaqi also agreed with a smile.
“What do you mean?” Liu Qings.h.i.+ asked, “The sun is very hot, and focusing on ignition is a good way to get fire, but where can we find a magnifying gla.s.s now?”
“Yes, at least there must be a magnifying gla.s.s to focus the ignition, right?” Everyone asked.
“I saw plastic bags in the garbage dump over there.” Fang Qiu said.
They froze.
Indeed, this island was uninhabited, but some people regularly came to the island to clean up some of the rubbish that had been washed up by the waves to prevent the rubbish in the seawater from affecting the ecological environment on this island.
“I saw it too, but what about the magnifying gla.s.s?”Liu Qings.h.i.+ asked.
“So, if you bring a plastic bag and fill it with seawater, isn’t it the equivalent of a magnifying gla.s.s?” Fang Qiu was speechless.
Hearing his words, everyone reacted now.
They seemed to have seen the method in the textbook story in junior high school.
Thinking of it, everyone was embarra.s.sed.
“Fill it with seawater. Good!” Liu Qings.h.i.+ nodded clearly.
“I thought of it a long time ago. I just didn’t say it.” Zhang Junhe said.
“It’s just elementary school knowledge. Everyone knows it, right?” Ying’er also laughed.
Looking at the hypocrisy of these people, Fang Qiu secretly slandered, I don’t believe you at all. They immediately started to do it.
Fang Qiu went to the garbage dump by sea and found a plastic bag that was not too broken with at least a piece larger than a palm, and filled the plastic bag with sea water. He used the rope that Song Yaqi had found yesterday, and tied the plastic bag up so that no water was exposed, just like a transparent balloon filled with water.
“Go find some dry bark, save two better ones, and use stones to grind the rest into powder.”Fang Qiu said.
Zheng Weilian and Zhang Junhe did it immediately.
Soon, they brought the bark.
Fang Qiu sprinkled a layer of bark powder on a whole piece of bark and then focused the sunlight on the water bag. After a while, the powder began to burn and smoke on the bark, and Fang Qiu sprinkled another layer of bark powder to focus on the sun again.
After several times in this way, the powder turned into a kind of fire. Fang Qiu folded the withered gra.s.s into small pieces and put them on it, piled up the other withered gra.s.s, and then turned it over. He removed the bark to drop the burning and smoking bark powder into the withered gra.s.s, held the withered gra.s.s, and gently turned it in a circle.
With this turn, he directly used the wind to ignite the fire in the withered gra.s.s, and soon a burst of black smoke appeared from the withered gra.s.s, and then the flames leaped up!
