"Actually, those two pigs weren't wild; they were farm-raised. I bet the organizers killed them and brought them in, fearing the contestants might starve."
"Wild boars, also called mountain pigs, have coarse meat and a strong gamey smell when wild."
"The fact that you found the wild boar meat tender and richly flavored in the soup is the best proof that it was artificially raised."
"Besides, wild boars are very vigilant and highly sensitive to their surroundings, reacting to the slightest sound."
"If it were a live wild boar, it wouldn't have been so easily taken down by that stupid snake."
After all, the giant python wasn't fast, and there wasn't a single sign of struggle on the wild boar.
Jiang Fan's explanation left Zhou Niannian dumbfounded.
She hadn't expected that a mere wild boar could have so many flaws.
When she had drunk the soup earlier, she had only found it delicious. Yet, this man in front of her had thought of so many things?!
What kind of brain was that?!
Just as she was thinking this, she heard Jiang Fan add,
"You got one thing wrong. Wild boars are protected animals under Class III, not Class II."
"In a critical situation, Class II animals can be eaten; it's called emergency avoidance."
The series of explanations, with his last word, brought immense shock to everyone.
Listening to Jiang Fan's words, Zhou Niannian couldn't help but glance at the water deer that was still lowing its head, nibbling on wild fruits.
What was going on?
In Jiang Fan's eyes.
The reason he hadn't killed the water deer so quickly was simply because it was a food reserve?
If he got hungry, it could still be eaten.
He was a devil!
Zhou Niannian, who had initially thought Jiang Fan was kind, felt a sense of despair about her teammate's image.
"Then was the black panther also..."
She whispered, but didn't finish, shuddering.
No, she couldn't think about it any further.
The implications were terrifying!
...
The shark's backstage was quiet now.
After hearing Jiang Fan's words, everyone looked cautiously at the director, trying not to laugh.
The assistant director thought about how the director had considered the food issue before the competition.
They had fully considered that the contestants weren't professionals, so the food situation could be slightly relaxed.
What had the director said at the time?
"Let's release a freshly slaughtered wild boar every other day. They won't be able to tell the difference anyway."
Even now, the director's confident look was deeply etched in their minds.
But now, he had been proven wrong!
The assistant director opened his mouth, wanting to say something to comfort the director.
"Director, this matter, you know, it was a coincidence."
"It's fine. I don't believe Jiang Fan will find out all the secrets. Don't worry, the other aspects of your design are all fine."
The assistant director said, patting the director's hand.
The director, however, grabbed his hand and, with tears and snot, said,
"But I think you're making a prophecy!"
"Then I won't say anything, Director, let go, let go! Don't get snot on my hand, damn it!"
The assistant director's崩溃 (collapsing) voice could be heard from in front of the monitors.
After a while, the director stood up refreshed, waved his sleeves, and left without a trace.
Only the assistant director remained slumped in his chair, his mouth as if a transparent soul was slowly floating upwards.
The other staff in the backstage were enthusiastically watching the show, finding it somewhat amusing.
The assistant director didn't seem to know about his prophetic talent.
Any flag he raised would come true!
The carefully designed small details of the competition might ultimately be discovered by Jiang Fan.
Thinking this, the knowledgeable staff members silently mourned the director's future life of tears and blood.
...
Meanwhile, in the broadcast studio.
Bear Grylls opened his mouth, having only managed to say 'Actually' before being unable to say anything more.
Everything he had wanted to say had already been said by Jiang Fan. What else could he say?
Lele, who knew what was going on, was also a bit flustered after hearing the reasoning.
"Everything Jiang Shen said is correct."
She paused, then noticed what Bear Grylls had almost said, and chuckled, easing the atmosphere.
"I feel like Jiang Shen is becoming like Bear Grylls, eating anything without discarding the head. But with Jiang Shen around, you won't have much of a chance to show off."
"Then I can sneak in some rest."
Bear Grylls found an excuse and smiled, unbothered by the brief interlude.
The viewers in the live stream, however, could no longer contain themselves.
Just moments ago, they had thought the black panther and others were VIPs, expecting Jiang Fan and Zhou Niannian to cater to them.
But now, looking back.
Jiang Fan's eagerness was clearly because he saw them as food reserves!
Even the giant python was...
Hiss—
"Holy crap, the real 'wolf king' is here!"
"Jiang Shen: You make me serve you today, and tomorrow I'll slaughter you all (smirking.jpg) *slurp~*"
"The one in front, the Dragon King is smirking, hurry up and tear his mouth apart! [Chuckle]"
"Hahaha, you guys are devils. But I think Jiang Shen is even more ruthless, this guy eats the whole thing! He doesn't spit out the head when he eats."
"What do you mean 'eats the whole thing without spitting out the head'? Bear Grylls 2.0, is that it?"
The audience laughed heartily, wishing Jiang Fan would continue his work.
Ever since they had witnessed his god-tier archery, everyone had been eagerly anticipating him catching new prey or showcasing more brilliant performances.
Everyone waited with bated breath for Jiang Fan's next move.
But after applying medicine to the black panther, he walked into the tent.
Before entering the tent, he didn't forget to instruct Zhou Niannian.
"I can't hold on any longer, I'm going to sleep."
"You should also get some good rest this afternoon. Leave the guard duty to the black panther."
After saying this, he dived into the tent without looking back.
He left Zhou Niannian with a stunned expression, looking at the suddenly quiet campsite, unable to snap back to reality.
After a long while, she stammered,
"Wh-what's going on?"
Zhou Niannian hadn't reacted, and the bullet comments were even more bewildered.
In the main live stream, over ten million people were staring blankly at the screen.
It was still daytime outside, and there was plenty of time to do other things.
Yet, Jiang Fan had chosen to sleep.
To SLEEP!!!!
Was this what a survivor should do?
After a pause of nearly half a minute, everyone seemed to snap back to reality and exploded.
"Wait, Jiang Fan, you bastard, you're just going to sleep?!"
"What the hell? I took off my pants and all I get is this? Is this reasonable???"
"Damn it, spit out my gifts, you slacker in broad daylight!!"
"You're really something, Jiang Fan should be called Jiang the Skinflint. He gave the black panther medicine after it brought prey and then assigned it guard duty, maximizing its value, right?"
The bullet comments were filled with curses.
Especially those who were working hard and constantly waiting for work to end, feeling incredibly impatient.
They had initially hoped to find some balance through this live stream, only to see Jiang Fan openly slacking off.
Who could stand this?!!!
They all thought of cursing him in unison.
"Jiang Fan, you bastard! Get up and work for me!!!"
