Survive in the Wilderness with Celebrities

Chapter 6 How Do You Know So Much?

[Mining Proficiency +1]
After seeing the prompt, Meng Chao concealed his inner joy.

He was very curious about what surprises would come after the excavation reached the maximum level.

[This is really embarrassing. Fatty did a great job.]

[What fat guy? He has a name. Great job, Brother Chao.]

[Last time I forced Aikun to pretend, this time I finally got a comeback and didn’t embarrass myself abroad, well done.]

[I feel good now. I thought you were useless, but now you have something! ]

In the live broadcast room, after seeing Meng Chao's performance, everyone finally gave some positive comments.

Of course, there are very few such barrages, and they are completely drowned out by the numerous barrages.

These had nothing to do with Meng Chao. He shook off the dirt on the cassava and broke the cassava off from the roots.

"This cassava is not big. I thought the soil here was very fertile." Meng Chao found that the cassavas were very small and immediately felt disappointed.

This cassava plant has three tubers in total, the largest of which is only three fingers wide and ten centimeters long.

Meng Chao stuffed the three cassavas directly into his pocket and prepared to continue looking.

Protein may be easy to get on this island, but carbohydrates are difficult.

Ma Dongxi had already seen Meng Chao pull out the cassava, and a sense of competitiveness surged in his heart.

He exerted force suddenly, using all his strength, and the veins on his neck burst.

He slowly pulled the cassava out of the soil, saving his own face.

"Damn it, there can't be just these two small cassavas?" Ma Dong-seok's brows were twisted together when he saw that there were only two cassavas that he had pulled out with great effort.

He checked and found that the roots were not broken, which meant that the cassava was not cut through.

Now, I feel even more depressed.

His hands were sore from pulling out the cassava.

"I dug it out too. There was a really big cassava, but I broke it." Lee Ji-eun said excitedly.

She had an engineer shovel, so she wasn't slow at all.

She dug out four cassavas directly. The largest one was slightly bigger than her fist, about fifteen or sixteen centimeters long, and weighed more than 200 grams.

Meng Chao walked straight to Li Zhien and was immediately surprised when he saw the cassava she dug.

"Why is yours so big?"

It shouldn’t be!

"Is there any problem, Oppa?" Lee Ji-eun looked at Meng Chao in confusion.

"It's nothing, maybe you have better luck." Meng Chao said nothing else and continued searching.

Soon, he found another cassava.

An Yifei followed this time and asked curiously, "I've read some information before. Some cassava is poisonous and needs to be processed. Is this necessary?"

As Meng Chao dug, he said, "No, this cassava is sweet cassava."

He then explained: "Sweet cassava is also called bread cassava. The outermost skin is reddish brown and can be easily torn off to reveal the fleshy inner skin underneath. The inner skin is also easy to peel off."

"The outermost skin of bitter cassava is gray-brown, and the outer skin is tightly connected to the inner skin, making it difficult to tear apart, and the inner skin and the flesh cannot be easily separated."

"In addition, the flesh of sweet cassava is usually milky white or light yellow, but milky white is the most common, while the flesh of bitter cassava is white."

After listening to Meng Chao's popular science, An Yifei was surprised.

"You are so professional, how do you know so much? Aren't you a novelist?" An Yifei asked curiously. According to the information provided by the program team, Meng Chao is a 20-year-old online writer, but he has never produced any outstanding works.

"Before I joined the show, I was preparing to write a novel about wilderness survival and had looked up a lot of information," Meng Chao explained happily.

He didn't expect that An Yifei actually remembered his situation!!!
What he said was half true and half false. In fact, he had already written several novels about wilderness survival and had watched countless documentaries.

However, this is a parallel world, and the identity created by the system is very clean, that of a freelance writer without any works.

"No wonder... But you don't seem to be socially anxious. You compiled all the information yourself, right?" An Yifei looked at him with some suspicion.

"It's a little embellished, but most of it is true. Social phobia may not be accurate, I am a social lazy person."

"Too lazy to socialize?" An Yifei's eyes lit up involuntarily, as if she had found a like-minded person.

Meng Chao turned his head and was about to say something when he saw An Yifei wiping the sweat from her forehead.

The light shone on her face, giving her stunning appearance a layer of fairy-like aura, which instantly struck Meng Chao's heart.

The doubly excited feeling made his soul seem to shudder.

[Oh my god, this shot is absolutely amazing, so beautiful! ! ! ! ]

[Oh my god, this is my dream goddess, she is so beautiful. The sweat-wiping action is amazing, it touches my heart.]

[The fat man was stunned, his eyes widened.]

[Anyone would be straight, Feifei herself is prettier, who can resist this? ]

[Damn, I'm so jealous that I'm almost deformed. ]

An Yifei also noticed that Meng Chao was fascinated by her. Her face suddenly flushed and she quickly stood up.

At this time, Li Zhien came over and handed her engineer shovel to Meng Chao, interrupting everything.

"Oppa, use this to dig. This is easier to dig."

She was very grateful to Meng Chao. If it weren't for Meng Chao, she would not have had the opportunity to dig cassava.

Otherwise, she would go hungry at noon.

An Yifei only caught a squirrel, but it was not enough for her to eat by herself, and she was too embarrassed to ask her to share some with her.

"Okay, thank you." Meng Chao didn't hesitate to take the engineer shovel and started digging.

[Mining Proficiency +1]
After digging out the cassava, Meng Chao gained a little more proficiency.

"This cassava is too small, just like a potato." An Yifei looked at the cassava that had just been dug out with a hint of doubt in her eyes.

"Maybe it's because the soil here contains too much salt, which affects their growth." Meng Chao thought of a possibility.

"So that's how it is?" An Yifei had a look of sudden enlightenment on her face, and obviously felt that Meng Chao's analysis was correct.

A few people then looked around, trying to find some more cassava.

The more food the better, no one wants to go hungry.

"Okay, let's go back first. There is no cassava around here. We can keep an eye out on the way back. What do you think?" Ma Dongxi glanced at his watch.

"I hope there will be a surprise on the way back, otherwise this little cassava won't be enough." Meng Chao has a big appetite now, because his body is in the process of 'transformation' and requires a lot of energy.

Because before he traveled through time, he was not fat, nor was he 1.86 meters tall, and he was even nearsighted.

But after the time travel, his body became what it is today in a short period of time, which made him happy and worried.

What people are worried about is naturally obesity and increased appetite, which is not good for survival in the wilderness.
