Based on the tracks left by these animals, they should be small snakes, but there are many of them, and they usually appear in groups.
But snakes are extremely sensitive to cold, so how could they appear in the snowfield? Zhou Haimei asked.
It's the apocalypse now. Since animals can mutate, there's nothing strange about snakes appearing here, Li Cheng replied.
Although even he found it absurd, there were too many impossible things happening in this world.
One more wouldn't really matter.
However, seeing that these snakes were heading in this direction, it seemed that it was because their location not only had a light source but also heat, which attracted these snakes.
Xu An's expression remained unchanged, as she hated these crawling creatures the most.
This is the camp we finally found. We can't just abandon it and set up camp elsewhere because of these beasts, Xu An said, frowning.
This location was decided after a long discussion among the five of them. Leaving now to find another place, not to mention whether they could find a natural shelter with a cave that could block the wind like this one, the wind and snow outside alone would be enough to deal with.
Xu An's gaze was firm, We'll just wait here. No matter what wild beasts come, if one comes, we'll kill it. If a group comes, we'll kill them all!
With that, she strode back into the tent.
It was the first time Zhou Haimei had seen such a resolute Xu An.
But it made sense. They had gone through a lot of hardship to find such a suitable place to set up camp, and now they were forced to move because of a group of animals, possibly snakes, so no one would be in a good mood.
As per Xu An's instructions, everyone did not prepare to evacuate but continued with their usual activities.
However, while Xu An's team hadn't said anything about this attitude, the audience outside the screen was not satisfied.
What is Xu An trying to pull off!
Exactly. Yesterday I thought better of this girl and thought she was skilled, but now she's so arrogant. If they encounter a large group of snakes, I'll see how their team handles it!
Exactly, she's a bit too ungrateful.
The place can be found again, but there's only one life. Xu An is too willful! Those who spoke like this were relatively rational.
Of course, there were also irrational people, and the entire hall was filled with foul language that was unpleasant to hear.
Many viewers who were attracted to Xu An's food broadcast yesterday had already unfollowed and turned against her today.
However, this heated discussion did not last long.
Soon, Xu An took out a lot more food and began preparing breakfast.
Ham sandwiches, smoked beef, freeze-dried vegetable porridge, egg drop soup...
As one dish after another was made by Xu An, the audience sitting in front of the screen was completely dumbfounded.
Did Xu An really bring so much food! How dare they! They're eating better than me in the snowfield! Wuwuwu...
Yesterday, Xu An said that the food she brought was enough for everyone to eat, and I thought she was bragging to boost morale, but I didn't expect it to be true!
My mom asked me why I was watching the competition on my knees, and I said I was so hungry I cried! How can Xu An cook so well? Why does that egg drop soup look so fragrant?
Damn it, I suddenly remembered that I don't have any food to eat, but why are they eating so well while hunting wild beasts in the snowfield!
Quite a few unsuspecting viewers rushed to other people's live streams to watch other teams. They thought this was the standard meal provided by the official.
But when the director switched the camera to other teams, they realized what kind of suffering the other teams were living through.
Let alone eating breakfast, some teams still hadn't found a place to camp and were still fighting small groups of wandering beasts.
The slightly better teams had found resting places, but their locations were not as good as the cave Xu An's team found. The already sturdy tents were blown precariously, as if they would collapse at any moment.
Even the teams that could eat were only eating their compressed biscuits, which were cold and hard, and all the water they had pre-filled had frozen into ice.
They could only drink melted snow.
It was nothing like the heavenly life Xu An's team was living.
Of course, Xu An's team knew nothing of all this.
After they had eaten their fill, they slowly opened the map and began planning today's tasks.
We won't go out today. We'll just wait here. I feel that since these snakes have left their marks here, they won't let us go easily. Instead of wandering around aimlessly not knowing where the wild beasts are, it's better to wait here and see what's going on.
After speaking, Xu An quietly watched the other four people.
Zhou Haimei immediately stated, I have no objections. I'll listen to An An.
I have no objections either. I'll listen to sister An An, Li Xinyue said, raising her hand and agreeing with Xu An.
Their team had five people in total. With three votes to two, An Li said that Li Cheng and Guan Shan's opinions were no longer important.
However, Xu An still wanted to hear their opinions.
Guan Shan, as usual, did not speak, but nodded at Xu An, indicating that he had no objections.
Seeing this, Li Cheng did not dare to voice any of his thoughts, even if he had any, and also nodded.
He actually disagreed with Xu An's rather passive approach to things.
But sometimes his thoughts might not be right. Moreover, the sticky substance left by the snake swarm on their tent was indeed a troublesome matter.
Instead of wandering around and wasting time, it would be better to deal with these small beasts first, and everyone would be more at ease.
I have no objections either. Since we want to attract these snakes, I actually have a way, Li Cheng said.
Xu An nodded, signaling him to continue.
Even if the snakes here have mutated and appeared here, I think they still like heat. I observed that the traces of snakes crawling around were almost all in places where we had fire and warmth.
After Li Cheng finished speaking, Xu An understood his meaning.
Are you planning to lure the snakes out with a bonfire? Xu An asked.
Yes.
But they didn't appear when we lit a fire to cook just now, Zhou Haimei interjected.
