Taking Part in a Survival Game with My Brother

Chapter 43 - 43 Chapter 43 Nose Injury



43 Chapter 43 Nose Injury

Everyone looked over and saw a cluster of lush green bushes.

There was nothing else.

Zhou Moli’s eyes darted between Lu Yang and the bush. Finally, he stopped at the former.

He didn’t say anything. He just frowned slightly and pondered alone.

Lin Xinmeng noticed the change in Zhou Moli’s expression and asked, “Lu Yang, did you get lost and accidentally brought us here? Are you afraid that we’ll blame you, so you randomly pointed at a pile of wood to deal with us?”

There were mountains and steep peaks, and the road conditions were unclear. However, it was as if Lu Yang had a map in her heart. From the moment she entered the mountains to this place, she did not stop at all.

If she didn’t have anything to do with the program team, then she was the one who led them around and lied to them.

“Their brains can actually work!”

“The program team’s script is too obvious. Lu Yang must have known all the clues and missions in advance for her to be so confident!”

“I feel that they would still happily help her count the money even if Lu Yang sold them.”

The program team wanted to see Lu Yang’s reaction, so they activated the aerial camera and slowly descended.

The girl’s flawless facial features were displayed on the high-definition screen.

Because of the sudden face-to-face photo, the netizens’ topic gradually changed.

“Is Lu Yang’s fan in the program team? The 8K resolution beauty attack is too superior!”

“There are many kinds of flowers in this world: Roses, peonies, lilies, and Sister Yang’s picturesque beauty!”

“Her eyebrows are just right, her nose bridge is quite sharp, and her natural beauty has captivated me!”

Lu Yang lifted her eyes and started walking. Lu Mingyu followed closely behind her.

Lu Yang took three steps and stopped in front of a tree. She stated, “We came here from the entrance of the northern mountain. The trees we saw on the way were all scratched.”

“Scratch marks?”

Lin Xinmeng stepped forward, squinting her eyes as she rubbed her hands against the tree bark.

She could indeed feel the obvious cracks.

“There’s really a scratch!” she exclaimed in shock.

Hearing that, Zhou Moli, Qin Yitan, and Wen Jian also stepped forward. They surrounded the tree and studied its bark.

The crack on the bark was not big, and the color difference was not big. It was difficult to see the crack with the naked eye, but it was more obvious by touching it.

Zhou Moli looked at Lu Yang in a daze.

They had no experience and would not consider the tree’s condition. Moreover, even if they saw cracks on the tree, they would only think that it was a natural phenomenon and not surprising.

How strong was Lu Yang’s observation to be able to notice this?

Lu Mingyu lowered his head and asked in a low voice, “Yangyang, how do you know that the tree bark has been cut?”

Lu Yang explained, “There was an eye-catching tree at the intersection we came from. There were messy footprints on the soil at the roots. Before the program team came to set up things, it must have rained heavily. But after they left, it hadn’t rained until now. Those footprints have been left until now.”

If they were just passing by, the footprints would not be so messy.

Moreover, the cut on the tree was very neat. It was obvious that someone had deliberately cut it with a knife.

The program team had intentionally led them into the wilderness to create a sense of urgency.

After all, the trees here were so tall that they covered the sky, and the chirping of cicadas filled the ears. It was quite eerie.

Lin Xinmeng didn’t expect Lu Yang to answer her question so easily.

“Then, how did you know it was a bush?” she asked.

Lu Yang responded, “The mushroom cap in the card is semi-circular. It’s the same shape as the bush.”

“But there are no mushrooms here?” Lin Xinmeng was still holding on to the mushroom drawn on the card.

Lu Yang chuckled. “The program team never told us to look for mushrooms.”

Lin Xinmeng wanted to ask something else, but she did not know what to say.

Mushroom and orange were just their guesses, and they had never been confirmed.

But if that was the case, why did Lu Yang say that she wanted to go to the damp north to look for mushrooms?

Lin Xinmeng’s carefully built mental defenses had been completely broken through, leaving only a cloud of fog-like doubt.

Zhou Moli walked around the bush Lu Yang had pointed to. He looked at it a few times but didn’t find anything unusual.

“There’s more than one bush here. How do you know which one we’re looking for?” he asked.

“The forest has been abandoned for many years, so the shrubs should be growing wildly. The shape of this shrub is exactly the same as the cap of a mushroom. It looks like someone has trimmed it.”

Everyone looked around and found that the other bushes and weeds were messy, but this cluster was as neat as the bushes in a garden.

They walked in and raised their heads to look ahead, not paying attention to whether there was anything strange about the vegetation. Or rather, they never intended to observe the plants’ shape.

“The program team has gone easy this time. It won’t be as fun as clue 7.”

“I hereby announce the second season of wilderness, also known as Lu Yang and his useless teammates.”

“Other than Lu Yang, no one else’s brain has worked. Wait, it’s other than Lu Yang and Lu Mingyu. At least Lu Mingyu remembered to ask Lu Yang if she was thirsty.”

Qin Yitan’s anger that had been stirred up by Lu Mingyu earlier subsided quite. He stared at the bushes and scratched his head.

“What is the answer to clue 3?”

“Qin Yitan is confused.”

A light bulb went off in Wen Jian’s head as she jumped up and down in excitement. She raised her hand and exclaimed, “I know! I know!”

...

When she jumped up next to Qin Yitan, her backpack just happened to brush against the tip of his nose.

Qin Yitan was furious. He touched his nose and asked, “What?”

He thought inwardly, “It’s best to say something useful, or else I’ll be absolutely irreconcilable for the grudge of my nose injury!”

Wen Jian replied, “There’s a song called “The Bushes, “so it must be related to the song!”

“The answer is a song?” Qin Yitan asked.

“The lyrics said to find a bush to hide in if you’re tired. The answer should be in the bush!” Wen Jian replied readily.

“... What does our situation have to do with the song?”

“It doesn’t!” Wen Jian grinned. “I just suddenly thought of that song.”

Everyone was rendered speechless.

Zhou Moli knelt and explored the bushes.

Lu Mingyu placed a backpack on the ground and let Lu Yang sit on it to rest while he fanned her with his hand.

...

“Yangyang, what’s the point of the program team for setting up a bush?”

“This season’s show has a clear theme. It’s related to the environment.”

Lu Yang passed him a bottle of water and continued, “In humid areas, shrubs can preserve water, soil and adjust the climate.

At the thought of mission 7, Lu Mingyu praised, “Last time, it was an ocean environment. This time it’s a forest environment. Yangyang, you’re too smart! You’re indeed my good little sister!”

“This is just a guess. We can only confirm it after we get the information,” Lu Yang said conservatively.

Lin Xinmeng saw that Zhou Moli’s head was almost stuffed into the bushes, but he still did not find anything.

She took the initiative to volunteer. “My head is small. Do you want me to go in and take a look?”
