Chapter 444: Chapter 444: Wait and See
Carrying a backpack, Yu Li walked for over ten minutes but ultimately couldn’t resist calling out to Jiang Li ahead of him.
"I still can’t understand," he said, tugging on the strap of his bag. "Why did we give up such a good spot to choose these supplies?"
Jiang Li walked with her hands behind her back, paying close attention to the path under her feet while casually replying, "Because that place is no longer good for us."
"What do you mean?"
"I just did a divination for myself and it showed petty people; we’re likely being targeted."
She couldn’t figure out the specific situation, so she chose to leave that place.
Conveniently, Shang Shuyue had also made this request, so she simply went with the flow and agreed.
Hearing this explanation, Yu Li completely put his worries behind him.
After so many experiences, he had come to completely believe in Jiang Li’s abilities.
Now, if Jiang Li told him to go east, he definitely wouldn’t go west; if she told him to go downhill, he surely wouldn’t head out to sea.
Without her, he would be like a headless fly wandering around this Deserted Island until he was eliminated.
"But how could Shang Shuyue have so easily given us these supplies?" Yu Li asked. "She doesn’t seem like someone who is easy to talk to."
Jiang Li smiled faintly, "She’s indeed not easy to talk to, but getting what you want from someone else isn’t difficult either."
"Why?"
"Because you just need to make that person believe they’ve made a gain."
Yu Li: !
Audience: !
"But..." Yu Li couldn’t understand, "Fengshui Arrays are usually a Feng Shui Master’s trick up their sleeve. How could doing this possibly be her gain?"
Jiang Li narrowed her eyes, "My Fengshui Array isn’t powerful enough to affect all the creatures in the entire stream, so it’s only useful for a period of two hours. Once the time is up and the energy disperses, it will naturally be useless."
Yu Li: !
Audience: !
[HAHAHA, I’m dying of laughter, I was wondering why Sister Li agreed so readily, turns out she had her own scheme too.]
[So dark and I love it.]
[Indeed, it’s Jiang Li who never makes a losing deal, HAHAHA, awesome.]
[I bet Shang Shuyue would be furious if she knew!]
[Serves her right for always trying to take advantage of others!]
Meanwhile, half an hour after Jiang Li left, Shang Shuyue, with a dark expression, tossed the net in her hand.
Although more than ten fish had passed by within that half-hour, she hadn’t caught a single one!
Not one!
The only fish caught was a medium-sized blackfish that her teammate had pounced on and grabbed.
So how did Jiang Li manage to spear two so effortlessly?
But Shang Shuyue was just furious for a few minutes, and after that, she rolled up her pant legs and stepped back into the stream.
She refused to believe it.
She was determined to catch more fish than that Jiang Li today!
But gradually, she began to notice the problem—
Fewer and fewer fish were coming out.
Until after another ten minutes or so, there were no fish left in the stream.
The teammates also noticed and curiously looked towards her.
"Captain, why aren’t there any fish at all? Did we scare them all away?"
"Impossible," Shang Shuyue immediately denied. "We made such a fuss earlier and there were still fish; they couldn’t have been scared off."
That only left one possibility—
Shang Shuyue immediately dropped the net and went ashore to check the Fengshui Array.
But the Array was intact, not having been touched.
"Dammit!" she cursed under her breath.
However, the live audience was already laughing uproariously.
[HAHAHAHA, they’re out of luck running into Sister Li!]
[Jiang Li is so badass, she said the Array would only work for one hour, and it really did just last one hour.]
[HAHAHAHA, Master Shang buzzed around for so long, not only did she not catch any fish, but she also lost all her supplies.]
Shang Shuyue was somewhat frantic.
But after all, the Array was something she had bartered for; if there was a problem, she would have to find a way to fix it.
What she didn’t know was that she was about to face problems far greater than these.
Because just 500 meters away from them, Team D was already eagerly approaching.
The scout who went ahead excitedly ran back.
"Captain, there are indeed people over there, and there’s a water source too!"
Upon hearing this, the captain of Team D’s eyes shone even brighter.
"Great, after eliminating that woman, I’ll use the points to exchange for some delicacies to treat everyone well!"
"Awesome! Thank you, Captain!"
However, when they drew closer, they discovered that there wasn’t just one person by the stream!
But an entire team!
A team member cursed under his breath, "Damn, don’t tell me we were deceived by Su Yinwan? Didn’t she say Jiang Li was alone? How come there’s a whole team of people here?"
"It shouldn’t be. She didn’t seem like she was lying."
"Then is it a GPS error?"
"Even less likely," Team D’s captain said. "It’s provided by the show’s organizers with precise positioning, showing right here. How could it possibly be wrong?"
"What do we do now then?"
"No choice," he gritted his teeth. "Since we are here, and there’s also a water source."
Since they had been discovered, don’t blame them for not being polite!
...
"Jiang Li, I still don’t understand." After walking for half the day, Yu Li spoke up again. "Since we’ve chosen to leave, why are we circling back?"
Jiang Li stopped and turned to look at him.
"Because I just divined again, and the hexagram shows that our place of good fortune is near here."
Yu Li didn’t understand.
But he still chose to believe Jiang Li.
[LOL, why does Dean Yu look so simple and honest?]
[Oh my god, Dean Yu is so adamant in school, why is he so obedient to Jiang Li here?]
[Hmmph, isn’t it because our Sister Li is charming!]
[Sisters above, that should be called ’the power of persuasion’...]
It wasn’t long before the two returned when they heard quite a commotion coming from ahead.
It sounded as if people were fighting, with screams and clashes, extremely lively.
Yu Li was startled, "Isn’t that the stream where we were just now?"
Jiang Li nodded, "Yes, it seems someone else has discovered this place."
Upon hearing this, Yu Li’s voice lowered instantly; then he involuntarily took two steps back, "What do we do now?"
Jiang Li looked around and then her gaze settled on a fairly sturdy tree nearby.
"Let’s watch and wait," she said.
Yu Li was just about to ask what she meant by "watch and wait" when he saw Jiang Li suddenly spring up like a swallow onto the tree in front of them.
Yu Li: ???
His mouth gaped open into an O shape.
Wait, was he seeing things?
How could someone have jumped so high up onto a tree so suddenly???
Jiang Li, who had firmly perched herself on a branch, extended one hand down without expression.
"Come up."
Yu Li: ?
Was he supposed to go up too?
