Chapter 470 Now that We Are Here

Under a clear sky, a convoy is driving on the road.

This is the motorcade of the "Survivor" show crew. After the New Year, the guests returned to the program group and started running around with the group.

In a modified bus in the motorcade, some of the guests were resting with their eyes closed, some were scrolling through their mobile phones, and some energetic ones were looking out the window curiously.

Choosing the next shooting location still depends on meteorological data. Based on the latest data from the monitoring station, the intrusion route of the strong convection system is analyzed, and then their next "main battlefield" is calculated.

Although in the information age, a video call can solve many things, in order to give guests a deeper and more immersive experience in this program, the entire team will go to several of the monitoring stations to take classes together.

Compared with the last filming, now that the guests are participating again, even if it is just complicated and tiring preliminary preparations, no one has any complaints. No matter what they think in their hearts, everyone is active, cooperative and patient. attitude.

Obviously, during the Chinese New Year, they used various means to find out a lot of news. Now many people want to squeeze into the show crew, but they can only watch helplessly.

The only young person hired this time was the one who signed a contract with the program team in advance last year.

Shen Zeli is less than 20 years old and took the college entrance examination last year. In my first year of college, because of my elders’ connections, I knew this opportunity was hard to come by. I studied hard for half a year and earned my credits in advance before I was allowed to participate in this variety show. He was unable to catch up with the filming of the last episode. This is the first time he has participated in the filming with the team. He is very excited and has a sense of novelty in everything he watches.

However, everyone in the car was resting, so he took his movements lightly and just looked out the window quietly until he noticed the wonderful scenery outside the window.

"Look! It's rolled up! Ward...cough, Ward, oh my god, is it a tornado? It must be a tornado!" Shen Zeli shouted excitedly.

Feng Chi, who was scrolling through his cell phone, heard this and excitedly went to the window to look out.

"Wow! Tornado!"

While shouting, I didn’t forget to quickly operate the camera on my mobile phone to take a video, making sure to have a clear group photo!

In the fields not far away, or the dirt fields without crops, the dust was blown up by the wind, like a brown, elongated vortex, extending upward.

Another older guest who was nearby looked out the window and said calmly: "Oh."

"A tornado! It's rolling up!" Shen Zeli thought that no one had heard and shouted again.

"I know, I know, roll it up." A guest in the back seat yawned, took a short video with his mobile phone as if following a process, and yawned uninterestedly.

Although other guests in the car were also curious, they were far less excited than Shen Zeli and Feng Chi.

Feng Chi and Shen Zeli looked at the reactions of everyone around them.

They all seemed calm.

Why?

Why?

The two were stunned.

There were several guests who were older than them. They looked at them with tired and understanding eyes. Their sleepy eyes seemed to be looking at two fools.

The good-tempered big brother sitting next door explained: "That's a dust devil, not a tornado. It's not as destructive as a tornado, and it's not particularly rare. It just depends on whether it can be photographed. We were lucky today and happened to meet one." "

Shen Zeli was still a little excited: "I'm sorry, it's the first time I've seen the child in this age!"

The guest brother said: "In the next two to three months, the frequency of occurrences in the northern region should be relatively high. You can pay attention to the videos posted by netizens online."

"Then how do you tell if it's a dust devil or a tornado?"

"Serious tornadoes generally don't occur under clear skies. You can look at the clouds in the sky..."

In the car, a few of them were discussing in low voices the difference between dust devils and land tornadoes. Other guests were either wearing headphones to rest or discussing the filming of the next episode.

From the information collected during the Chinese New Year, they knew the nature of this variety show, and after filming the first episode, their awe of nature became even more profound.

Looking at the dust devils that had gradually dissipated outside the window, the guests smiled on their faces, but they couldn't relax in their hearts.

You can't treat it with the intention of entertainment or ordinary work, but really treat it like a battle!

It’s stressful!

Especially for people who have experienced abnormal climate periods, the shadows that they had wanted to forget have returned with a vengeance.

The atmosphere in the car became dull.

Shen Zeli realized that the topic he had brought up seemed to make the atmosphere not so good. After thinking about it, he lowered his voice but still could be heard by the people in the car, and asked Fengchi in a "low voice": "Achi, your brother won't follow you this time." shoot?"

There was a sudden silence in the car.

Even those who closed their eyes to rest quietly raised their ears.

Feng Yi's identity is too special. Maybe he can get more information in advance?

Feng Chi, who seemed to be unaware of it, said with a pity expression: "He has been busy recently."

Everyone is more curious.

busy? What are you busy with?

Is there something important they don't know?

Everyone has suspicions in their hearts.

Shen Zeli said: "That's a pity. I thought I could see him this time, and I wanted to ask him how to catch a snake!"

Feng Chi said: "I heard him say some time ago that he was going to the tropical rainforest for inspection, and he is probably already in the rainforest now."

Feng Chi originally planned to celebrate Feng Yi's birthday, but he didn't expect that Feng Yi was busy with affairs and would not be in the country during this time.

Feng Chi sighed in his heart, and the other guests were a little subtle when they heard this.

Another tropical rainforest expedition?

What kind of inspection?

Is it... the kind of survey that can dig out a huge blue diamond?

Feng Yi was doing an survey last time, and then he dug up a rare treasure, so much so that when the public talks about that period now, they don't remember that Feng Yi went abroad for a meeting, visited the rainforest by the way, and then went on vacation to dig diamonds.

The public only remembers that Feng Yi dug up a huge blue diamond! He also used armed helicopters for escort!

This time, did Feng Yi really go to the tropical rainforest for scientific research?

Or... digging for diamonds again?

Or digging for gold?

The other side of the ocean.

In the humid and sultry rainforest, Feng Yi was flipping through a book that he bought before entering the rainforest, which was a record of the place by outsiders two hundred years ago.

While flipping through it, he walked slowly forward.

He didn't need to use his eyes to look around, and he could tell where there were obstacles and what the terrain was like.

The tall trees and dense branches and leaves blocked most of the sunlight above, so that it seemed a little dark under the branches and leaves.

On the ground, in the leaves, a venomous snake that was difficult to distinguish with the naked eye suddenly attacked when Feng Yi walked by it!

...It didn't attack.

It shrank back and continued to coil.

Feng Yi didn't blink, didn't pay any attention to it, and completely ignored its little action just now, and continued to move forward.

Relying on his own advantages, he rushed through the rainforest.

He had restrained his breath, and his body temperature was not very high. He didn't encounter attacks often along the way.

The little snake just now was too irritable and nervous.

There is a river not far away, flowing through this forest, nourishing all things, and leaving many legends.

For example, the "rainforest monster" described in the travel notes written by an outsider two hundred years ago, which Feng Yi is reading now, is Yakumama.

In this land, there are three supernatural giant snakes in the indigenous legends: Yakumama, Sashamama, and Wailamama.

There are also legends of snake-like monsters such as Minghokao.

Feng Yi had also seen someone ask on the Internet: Why are there legends of giant snakes in so many places in the world?

Either snakes, or snake-like creatures, or half-human and half-snake.

And every time Feng Yi saw these legends, he had a very complicated mood, looking through the illusion to see the truth hidden underneath.

I wonder how many of these legends are related to ancestors?

Feng Yi looked at the book in his hand, and the more he read, the more headache he had.

Don't take the exaggerated fifty-meter-long giant snakes in local legends too seriously.

Even now, in the eyes of many people who don't know, a five-meter-long anaconda has the first impression that it must be at least ten meters long!

If you encounter an anaconda that has just eaten and has a noticeably thick abdomen in the water: Wow! Is it more than ten or twenty meters long? !

The body shape of snakes is very deceptive. The real body length of a visually stunning python may disappoint many people.

"Alas!"

Skipping those exaggerated records, Feng Yi went to see the rest of the travel notes, and after a quick look, he threw the book into his bag.

I don’t know how thick the fantasy filter is on the recorder, or if he deliberately recorded the travel notes in a fantasy style, like talking in his sleep.

Feng Yi also needs to filter and extract these contents. After reading a book, his head hurts a little and he’s hungry.

Let’s go find food first.

In fact, the shooting materials are almost completed, and the degree is also grasped. Some rare situations can be photographed, but the content taken at one time cannot be too exaggerated, otherwise it cannot be explained.

Why can such a large amount of information be photographed in a limited time? All by luck?

Who believes it? !

Almost enough, I will come again in the future.

However, since I am here, I will collect some souvenirs and put them in the collection hall.

Feng Yi distinguished the smell information in the air and went to the nearest tribal village.

There are also primitive tribes that are truly far away from modern society and do not communicate with the outside world, but Feng Yi will not take the initiative to contact them.

These tribes are repulsive and vigilant to the outside world, and even show strong aggressiveness. Moreover, the language is not fluent, and uncontrollable conflicts are prone to occur.

The local government tried not to have any contact with them, and Feng Yi did not think that his social skills were enough to make these primitive tribesmen show friendliness.

Unless necessary, he did not want to use "physical social interaction".

Therefore, Feng Yi chose tribes or villages that had contact with the outside world to replenish supplies and stay for a short time.

These villages that had communication with the outside world must have many inconveniences in living conditions, but at least they could communicate.

Not long after, Feng Yi saw traces of human activities.

Going a little further, he saw several young villagers.

With more contact with modern civilization, this place can no longer be considered a pure primitive tribe. They can use telephones, buy modern tools, and even have guns. But some of their living habits still retain the traditional side.

In this tribe far away from the city but exposed to modern civilization, the newly grown young people have received knowledge since childhood, which enables them to have stronger external communication capabilities.

When they saw Feng Yi, these villagers were a little wary, but still enthusiastic.

Outsiders mean income.

Feng Yi talked to them very friendly and followed them into the village.

The young man who led the way asked with a local accent, "Adventurer?"

Feng Yi said, "I'm doing scientific research."

He then took out a certificate.

"I'm a certified expert of the Joint Security Bureau."

The people who were originally smiling and joining in the fun, and the people who approached with greedy desires, all stopped where they were.

There was no way, it was really that the word "United Guarantee Bureau" had too much influence.

Feng Yi's strategy this time was different from the last time he came into contact with the rainforest tribe while digging diamonds.

Last time, before entering the rainforest, he rested in the tribe and did not reveal his identity.

But this time, the mission was almost completed, and he didn't want to spend too much time on testing and defense. Moreover, Feng Yi knew that this tribe had cooperated with the people of the United Guarantee Bureau. When he entered the tribe, he heard some villagers talking about the "United Guarantee Bureau". Although there were complaints in their words, there was no strong negative emotion, and there was a little fear.

This was just right for Feng Yi. He didn't want to rest here for too long. He would eat a meal and sleep, and leave tomorrow.

The young man who led the way restrained his smile and became serious. He looked at the certificate presented carefully, identified the various anti-counterfeiting details on it, and then pulled out a stiff smile: "Welcome, guests from afar!"

Why is it from the United Guarantee Bureau? !

What they hate most is the Joint Guarantee Bureau. There are too many things to do, strict management, and all kinds of restrictions. They don't allow people to do this or that.

A villager next to her turned sideways and curled her lips. She was going to sell some fruit, and she was going to hand out the basket, but now she took it back. She planned to put away the knife on her waist first.

Living in the rainforest area, there may be dangers everywhere. The villagers are dressed in a local style and look very wild and tough. Carrying weapons is also basic, which can attack, defend, and collect food.

However, when facing the Joint Guarantee Bureau, they will be more or less restrained.

The villagers of this tribe have complicated feelings about the Joint Guarantee Bureau. They have cooperated with the Joint Guarantee Bureau and gained a lot of benefits, but at the same time, the Joint Guarantee Bureau has restricted many of their behaviors. One of them is: Please try to be friendly when facing certification experts.

What is considered friendly?

Is a smile not enough?

Is warm hospitality not enough?

What else do you want? !

After many times, they gradually figured out that many experts would be nervous and defensive when they carried weapons, especially the knives on their bodies.

Okay.

In order to take care of these vulnerable experts from the Joint Security Bureau, they can be a little more friendly.

But the one who came today was too young and didn't look embarrassed. He didn't look like he was here for scientific research... but he ate a lot.

The sun was slanting.

There were birds in the rainforest making long calls.

The tribal chief had something to do outside today, and he could have dinner when he came back.

The villagers would try to complete their activities before the sun set.

It was actually a little late for the chief to come back at this time today.

According to previous habits, most villagers would eat near their homes at this time, or prepare for the night, which was a little quieter than during the day.

However, when the chief came back, he could hear the noisy sound in the village from a long distance.

Thinking that something big had happened, he quickened his pace and ran into the village.

Some villagers were carrying or hugging rattan baskets and running to a place with smiles on their faces. When they saw the chief, they just greeted him hurriedly and continued to run to their destination.

The chief called one person over: "What happened?"

"The experts from the Joint Guarantee Bureau are here!" the villager said with joy.

"What did the experts from the Joint Guarantee Bureau do to make you so happy?" the chief asked again.

In the past, when we cooperated with the Joint Guarantee Bureau and gained benefits, everyone was also very happy.

Is there another cooperation this time?

Why didn't anyone tell me?

Who made the decision when I was not here?

The chief's majesty was challenged!

He didn't ask the villagers again. He was not far from the most noisy place and he could find out when he went there.

The chief walked over with a stern face and saw over there -

A young man was sitting at the table, which was full of rich food.

A circle of enthusiastic villagers surrounded the table.

"Do you want more of this kind of fruit?"

"Yes!"

"Barbecue? What about the barbecue?"

"Yes! Don't cut it, I want all of them!"

"Dried fruit? Dried meat? Do you accept poultry eggs?"

"Yes! Wait, what kind of species are they?"

"I forgot, but they are definitely not protected animals! We know the regulations of the Joint Guarantee Bureau by heart!"

"Okay, I'll take them all!"

"This fruit tastes a bit strange, I wonder if you will accept it?"

"Let me try it...I'll take it!"

One hand hands over the money, the other hand hands over the goods.

Baskets of food were handed over, and bills were handed over one by one.

It was so busy, but the guest sitting at the table still had time to eat!

This attitude of accepting everyone.

This heroic style of doing things.

Chief:...

Chief:? ? ?

This...

What kind of Joint Guarantee Bureau expert is this?

This is not here to inspect, but to purchase goods, right? !
