Chapter 187: Chapter 139: Jiang Ning is the Desolate Island Judge (Two in One)

Jiang Ning had walked around the attic this morning, figuring out the surroundings and the direction of the sea.

Be it a raft or a ship, a significant amount of wood is needed. Although the wood can be obtained from a nearby forest, the challenge was how to move it.

Since there was a forest by the sea as well, why bother going the long way round?

Jiang Ning, with Qi Xingzhou in tow, headed straight for the sea.

Qi Xingzhou, holding an electric saw, happily followed behind Jiang Ning, excited and indifferent to their destination, as if just being with Jiang Ning made any place acceptable.

The pair crossed through the forest to this unfamiliar stretch of sea.

Compared to the beach where the production team had dropped them off, this sea area was obviously larger, wider, more vast, and appeared to be much richer in resources.

There’s a particular standard for raw materials for rafts and ships, not just any tree would do. They had to pick high-quality trees with higher hardness, preferably also featuring water and insect resistance to withstand the sea’s soaking and erosion.

Jiang Ning walked through the forest, looking up at each towering ancient tree, dissatisfied and passing by them.

While Jiang Ning was selecting wood, two rabbits hopped out from a thicket.

At the sight of the rabbits, the screen instantly lit up with activity:

[Wow wow wow! Home delivery for the buffet!]

[Hahaha, stir-fried rabbit!]

[Here it comes, watch Jiang Ning catch it in one swoop!]

The two rabbits continued to hop about, even though they clearly saw two people here, they didn’t stop.

The audience praised the boldness of the rabbits, only to see Jiang Ning ignoring them, and the two rabbits actually approached Qi Xingzhou, rubbing their fluffy little heads against Qi Xingzhou’s trouser legs affectionately, as if pet rabbits were reuniting with their owner.

[...What the heck?]

[Here we go again, the weird stuff is happening again]

[Are these rabbits his pets? Why else would they be so friendly?]

[It’s a script... it’s fake... must be a bug from the production team]

[I’m crying, even fake rabbits are so cute. My own rabbit still isn’t tame after two years, it bares its teeth whenever I approach it]

The two chubby rabbits looked white, plump, and squishy, melting the hearts of many viewers in front of the screen, but Qi Xingzhou just slightly looked down, gently lifted his foot, and directly swept these obstacles aside, making the viewers call out for the cruelty!

Not discouraged after being pushed aside by Qi Xingzhou, the two rabbits remained happily hopping around him.

Jiang Ning, seeing the rabbits that were so friendly towards people, actually saw something more: "Are these the two rabbits?"

"Yeah." Qi Xingzhou nodded slightly.

When he had left the safe house to find Jiang Ning, aside from the small snake by his side, these two rabbits were hopping ahead, leading the way for him.

But after leading him there, the two rabbits returned the way they came.

Now, realizing he had come back to the safe house, the two rabbits bounced out to welcome him again.

"Quite cute." Jiang Ning appreciated with a compliment.

Their conversation left the audience in front of the screen rather perplexed and full of questions.

[Well done, watching the live-stream every day, and yet these two still have their little secrets behind our backs! Humph!]

After searching in the forest for a while, Jiang Ning finally found wood that she favored: cedar, pine, and camphor trees.

All three types of wood belonged to high-density, high-hardness, and strong water-resistant quality wood, perfect for naval usage.

Jiang Ning said no more and took action, grabbing the electric saw from Qi Xingzhou’s hands and beginning to cut the trees.

The electric saw roared, and as she bent over to saw the tree, the viewers were dumbfounded:

[The tree Jiang Ning is sawing is a cedar]

[Old fishing boats were mostly made of cedar, traveling all the way to the seaside to cut trees...]

[Isn’t she serious?]

[Isn’t this hilarious? Does she even know how to build a boat?]

[Building a boat isn’t that simple, I hope this isn’t just busy work for nothing]

[No no no, I have the opposite opinion. Although I don’t know if Jiang Ning really intends to build a boat, whatever she sets her mind to, she definitely will succeed! I believe in her!]

[Nonsense]

While everyone was in heated discussion, Jiang Ning had already finished sawing the tree she was working on.

The electric saw buzzed, seemingly easy to operate, but in truth, when cutting wood, the constant friction caused the surface to vibrate, requiring the user to hold it steady to prevent the blade from tilting or flying out of hand, demanding full concentration.
