Chapter 116 Hunting
Even though it was just plain rice porridge with nothing in it, the group ate it with great relish.
After everyone finished eating, Wu Tao began to give orders.
"Today, Sun Hao and Yang Zi, you two go one way; Chen He and Nazha, you two go the other way; I'll go the other way myself. We'll start exploring around the camp. Whether it's vegetables, wild fruits, or prey, we must get food as quickly as possible. Sun Hao, you take this axe; Chen He, you take this saw."
"Wu Tao, are you empty-handed?"
When everyone heard that the axe and hacksaw had been given away to others, they looked at Wu Tao with great curiosity.
Wu Tao picked up a military shovel and swung it around.
"I have this. Okay, everyone, let's go. I hope everyone has gained something when we get back tonight."
Sun Hao and Yang Zi set off with their axes.
Naza and Chen He also set off in the same direction, each carrying a hacksaw.
Wu Tao picked up a military shovel and chose a direction to move forward slowly.
Wu Tao is not worried about how to obtain food.
Donghai TV is preparing a survival program; they certainly don't want everyone to starve to death here.
Even if they don't starve to death, everyone will soon give up on their own, and the show will definitely be ruined.
Wu Tao guessed that Donghai TV must have made other arrangements on the island beforehand. At least the food problem could be solved.
Donghai TV really did make preparations in advance. A thousand pheasants and a hundred wild boars were released on the island a month in advance.
Although many of these animals will be eaten by the island's wild beasts, there will certainly be a large number of small animals hiding there.
Donghai TV station had people clean up the island once, eliminating tigers, lions, and elephants.
The most ferocious creatures were a few wolves and a few wild boars; I saw a leopard once.
The three teams of survival experts were configured with one expert in combat and another expert in wild herbs and vegetables.
This setup should ensure that the three groups won't be caught off guard by wild wolves or wild boars.
Their idea was good, but they overlooked the fact that not everyone can handle these wild beasts.
Sun Hao was indeed quite capable; as he led Yang Zi along the way, they collected a lot of herbs, wild vegetables, and wild fruits.
They also saw two pheasants, but Sun Hao's attack power was insufficient; he threw the axe, and the pheasants ran away.
Chen He and Gulnazar only picked some wild vegetables and fruits selectively, based on the knowledge they had received from Sun Hao's impromptu training the night before.
Around 2 PM, Chen He and Gulnazar were the first to return.
Around 3 PM, Sun Hao and Nazha also returned.
The four of them put their findings together and felt somewhat ashamed.
On their way back, the group had almost finished eating the wild fruits, and only a few pounds of wild vegetables remained.
There are seven or eight pounds of herbs, but they're not of much use for the time being.
"Alright, let's see what Wu Tao finds, otherwise we'll go hungry again today."
"Hopefully he can get some wild game; I'm really craving some meat."
Chen He's words silenced everyone present.
They never imagined they would be so humiliated because of a piece of meat.
The audience found it hilarious to see the three groups in such a miserable state, and of course, everyone saw Wu Tao's harvest and knew that the three groups would not lack food for a while.
On the contrary, it's Li Qin, Dilraba, and Wu Jing who are in danger now.
The second group, consisting of Yang Mi, Jia Ling, and Wang Baoqiang, is also having a tough time.
Wu Tao and his team set up their camp yesterday, while the other two teams only started in the last two days. However, the production team has already released the recent weather forecast for the island.
As everyone knows, a typhoon is coming in the next two days. If Team One and Team Two can't set up their camps quickly, they'll likely be in big trouble when the typhoon hits.
The viewers who voted for Wu Tao are very happy now, since Group 3 is currently the best performing group.
Not only was the campsite well-built, but Wu Tao also displayed his prowess once again when they went out to find food today.
Wu Tao appeared at five o'clock.
"Wow, Wu Tao, you're awesome!"
"My God, Wu Tao, you are a god, you are light."
Naza, Yang Zi, and Chen He all started saying nice things to Wu Tao and flattering him.
After all, Wu Tao's haul was truly astonishing.
Three pheasants, one rabbit, some wild vegetables, and some wild fruits.
"It's good that everyone is back. I'll cook for everyone right away."
Of the group, Chen He, Sun Hao, and Yang Zi can all cook, but Wu Tao didn't want to torture himself.
He should work harder. He's already suffering here, so if he can eat better, he shouldn't make things harder for himself.
"Wu Tao, you rest, let's cook."
Chen He's words prompted several people to quickly begin persuading Wu Tao, not wanting him to work so hard.
This is a live broadcast; viewers will see them doing nothing and might start to criticize them.
They're here to make money and gain followers at the same time.
If you want to be disliked by the audience, then why bother coming here to suffer?
"Okay, you guys wash all these things clean. As for cooking, I'll do it. I'm not trying to take it from you, but I'm the professional cook."
Hearing Wu Tao say this, everyone could only accept Wu Tao's arrangement, but they didn't really believe what Wu Tao said was true.
Wu Tao didn't explain; he had no choice yesterday. There was plenty of food today, and he planned to give his fellow human beings on Earth a truly awe-inspiring experience.
Wu Tao has already thought about his future.
He won a substantial prize money by participating in the program.
Go back to the city and open your own private restaurant in a first-tier city.
If you want to open a private kitchen, you definitely need to let people know that you are a good cook first.
This isn't the romantic world of the Siheyuan, where he could slowly make a name for himself through his master, Wang Defa.
On Blue Star, this program is the only way for Wu Tao to let everyone know that he is a very good cook.
Even if people are skeptical, they will still try it once.
Wu Tao was confident that once they came, they would become his loyal customers.
That way, he won't have to worry about his career at all in the future. He can cook several tables of food a day without getting tired, and he'll make a lot of money.
After the group finished washing the ingredients and brought them back...
Wu Tao picked up a kitchen knife and began his performance.
With a kitchen knife in hand, Wu Tao showed countless viewers in Da Dong Guo what true knife skills are.
Chen He, Sun Hao, Yang Zi, Gulnazar, and the tens of millions of viewers watching the survival show were all dumbfounded.
Through the live stream camera, viewers only saw a few flashes of the knife. Then, a chicken was reduced to countless pieces, all the same size.
The pot was taken off the heat, and then the chicken was stir-fried with the gathered herbs. Soon, an enticing aroma wafted to the noses of the group.
"It smells so good, Wu Tao! How come your cooking smells so good?"
Naza's pretty little nose twitched a few times, as if she couldn't wait to eat it.
Chen He is a true foodie, and he couldn't resist the aroma.
"Wu Tao, I believe in your cooking skills. This tastes absolutely amazing."
