[Temptation? You’re overthinking it, Brother Lu is just hungry]
…
The boat had been through a lot —— not falling apart after being hit repeatedly and toppled over by a hammerhead gray whale shark, and holding on to float through a rough and stormy night.
Until the other half of the raft was broken up by the big waves and washed to pieces.
Right now, there was only this half of the raft that the two were currently on.
——From his calculation, the purely handmade bamboo raft is almost at its limit.
“In addition to the threat of shipwrecks, there is also the problem of our reserves.” Lu Liran frowned in a troubled manner.
“Most of the drinking water we collected was on that raft. There were about two liters left, enough for us to drink for two days. But now it’s all gone. This loss is much more painful.”
Ke Ji said: “But there is also good news. At least the half of the raft we have retained has more intact coconuts tied to it.”
Lu Liran burst out laughing when he heard this. It was nothing more than enjoying himself in hardship.
The water in these coconuts is only about two to three hundred milliliters. It takes only four or six coconuts a day to maintain normal water replenishment. The coconuts tied up may look like a lot, but in fact, they will only last one day.
The two of them looked at the endless Barents Sea.
The sea showed them a kind side on the first day, but in the blink of an eye, it became extremely cruel and merciless.
“I wonder if the storm last night caused us to deviate from our course.” Lu Liran said in a low voice.
Last night they were like rag toys thrown into the sea, with no strength to resist at all. Wherever the sea pushed them, that was where they were. Under the chaos, strong winds and huge waves, even Ke Ji could not tell. They have no idea where they went.
After wandering on the sea for an unknown amount of time, Lu Liran suddenly saw a black line appearing in the distance.
He immediately got up from the raft with a start. He opened his eyes wide in surprise and shouted softly: “Look! That end! Is it the coastline?”
Ke Ji heard this and looked over, but felt that it didn’t look like it.
But he didn’t say much. After all, this was Lu Liran’s live broadcast. The meaning of his existence was to accompany him, not to interfere.
Whether there are detours or misjudgments in the middle, he will accompany him through them as long as his life is not at risk.
The audience in the live broadcast room also stared blindly for a while, but they didn’t even see the “black line” that Lu Liran shouted.
[I envy the anchor’s eyesight, it’s the eyesight that can lead to joining the army, right qaq]
[What coastline, where is it?!]
[Ah, is the live broadcast about to end?! No, no!! I haven’t seen enough of the beautiful anchors!!]
Lu Liran adjusted the focal length of the drone lens to the maximum. Through the lens, the group could barely see clearly that there was indeed a long black line hundreds of kilometers away.
Lu Liran immediately said: “Paddle over there!”
He moved quickly to the stern and adjusted the sail, his oars cutting through the waves.
The flow of the ocean current sent the raft in the direction of the target, and the sea breeze blew along, as if God was also helping. Everything went incredibly smoothly.
Lu Liran said excitedly: “Maybe it was the strong wind last night that sent us hundreds of nautical miles to the southern part of the Barents Sea!”
[Well, that’s a bit exaggerated]
[Anchor, wake up, it’s just one night! It’s such a beautiful thought, hahahahaha]
[I believe whatever Brother Lu says (face-holding nymphomaniac.jpg)]
Lu Liran said: “It’s not that there are no such examples. There was once a man who was so drunk that he fell into a river and floated along the river all night. When he finally woke up, he was far away from his original place of residence. It covers two provinces and cities! A total of 600 kilometers!”
Ke Ji nodded: “There are similar cases in the interstellar ruins. The natural flow cannot be underestimated.”
[I just went to search, and I actually found the case news report that Brother Lu mentioned!]
[Shit, aren’t all the “heard stories” the anchor mentioned before true??]

His voice was calm and his expression did not change much, but the audience in the live broadcast room did not dare to joke anymore and stopped laughing.
Lu Liran saw that the barrage instantly became deserted. He looked away and said nothing more.
On the one hand, it also saves energy as he paddle in the target direction.
However, the amazing thing was that the number of people in the live broadcast room did not decrease because of the anchor’s silence and the somewhat admonishing remarks just now. Instead, the number of people in the live broadcast room was still increasing steadily.
[If it were another anchor, I would definitely give it a thumbs up, just watching a live broadcast, I still need to be educated…but in Brother Lu’s case, I just want to say that Brother Lu is right TAT]
[Yes…this is the special charm of our anchor qaq, not because of his appearance. After all, I used to live listening to cough]
[Because Brother Lu really respects life seriously, so it doesn’t feel dramatic. Instead, I can’t help but reflect on it. I think this is pretty good—— Beef Short Ribs gifted the anchor 1x Top-quality Wagyu Beef]
[Newbie checking in, is this the legendary live broadcast room? What are you doing?]
[I heard that there is a wilderness anchor, who is extremely good-looking, even better-looking than those in the entertainment industry, isn’t it here?!]
[I, too, check in with admiration]
[Sure enough, these muscles are different! This posture! Such a look!——there is a knife above the character for lust gifted the anchor 300x rice grains]
[Please come to the entertainment industry! Let all the male artists in the entertainment industry roll up!]
[+1+1+1 I’m begging for such a muscular handsome guy, I’m tired of seeing the flow of milk burps]
[Ah ah ah, I want to be a wife fan this time, I don’t want to be a mother anymore!!]
As the distance got closer, Lu Liran changed from kneeling and paddling to standing. He frowned slightly and said in a deep voice: “It doesn’t look like the coastline.”
He glanced at the drone and said: “It’s probably an island.”
“The Barents Sea is vast. In addition to the famous resort islands, there are also thousands of unknown islands.” Lu Liran pursed his lips. “Compared to the coastline, it seems that there is a higher probability that it is still a small island.”
When the long black line was finally enlarged to a distance that could be seen clearly, Lu Liran’s suspicion was confirmed.
Worse still, that island looked even more barren than the one Lu Liran had left before, with black reefs everywhere, it didn’t look like there was a place where they could land, and even green plants were rare.
Lu Liran frowned, but he didn’t want to let go of such a rare piece of land.
He looked at the live broadcast room: “The offshore waves near this side are quite gentle. I can go up there with minimal effort and see if I can gain anything there.”
[Oh oh oh! Brother Lu is going to show off his skills!! Hurry up! Show off your skills to the newbies!]
[Yeah! Our Brother Lu! Really, you can obviously rely on your face to make a living, but you have to rely on your skills]
Lu Liran glanced at Ke Ji subconsciously.
Although he had already made a plan, since he knew that Ke Ji was the commander, he always subconsciously looked at the other person after making a decision, as if asking for the other person’s advice or wanting an evaluation.
But deep down he knew that wasn’t the case.
However, Ke Ji didn’t say anything. He just smiled gently at Lu Liran and said: “Good, then I’ll wait for you here.”
Lu Liran felt relieved, he slightly curved his mouth and nodded.
He really doesn’t need advice or evaluation, but more of a simple response. And the reason why he was happy was because Ke Ji’s reaction meant that the other party fully understood this.
The bamboo raft stopped four or five meters away from the small reef island. The waves were a little big and the bamboo raft was shaking a bit.
“Tie a rope to your wrist to prevent the raft from being carried away by the waves.” Lu Liran said as he naturally stretched out his hand to Ke Ji, who tied the rope for him.
He saw the right moment —— as he said in the live broadcast room before, offshore waves follow rules, and all he had to do was jump into the sea when the waves were smallest.
He swung his long legs, then rolled up his waist and abdomen, and in a few breaths he dived underwater, quickly crossing the crowded waves. When he emerged again, he had already swam to the other side of the reef.
Lu Liran took the rope from his wrist and fixed it on the rock. Then he grabbed the rock with one hand and climbed up the rock with his bare hands.
The lower rocks are always wet and slippery due to the waves.
After Lu Liran stabilized his figure, he raised his eyes and looked at the rock wall about six or seven meters high in front of him.
“I believe everyone is already aware of the key points of freehand rock climbing. Before rock climbing, you must first find and confirm the next route with the most handholds and footholds to ensure that you don’t suddenly realize that you have nowhere to go when you are halfway up the climb.
Lu Liran took a deep breath and couldn’t help but frown—— It really smells bad here, with the fishy smell of the sea and the stench of these bird droppings. This environment was probably a nightmare for free-handed rock climbers.
He didn’t say anything. All uninhabited islands are like this.
This is a paradise for seabirds, and he is the intruder.
His arm muscles bulged due to exertion, but it was not exaggerated. He did not deliberately overdose on protein powder and some body-building hormones for the sake of bodybuilding. It was just daily high-intensity exercise and strong fitness required in the wild that shaped his physique into a fleshy but not excessive one.
There is no trace of fat on these arms, the lines are smooth, and they make one feel very safe at first glance.
But what really possesses explosiveness and powerful strength are the legs wrapped under the trousers. The muscles in the legs are like a stone when they are tightened and exerted force.
“The arms are used to pull direction, the legs are the power support. The large muscle groups in the legs are always more reliable than the arms.” Lu Liran climbed very quickly. This reef wall was not difficult to climb, and he still had strength left.
“Inexperienced climbers always tire faster because they use the power of their arms to pull themselves up instead of using the power of their legs.”
As he spoke, Lu Liran quickly turned over and climbed to the top of the reef.
[Wow, that’s awesome! Is it possible for people to climb in such a place?!]
[Hey ah, what is this? The anchor has also climbed straight up and down, just relying on a few vines of a tree, that’s awesome!]
[After listening to Brother Lu explain rock climbing techniques several times, I was actually a little eager to try it. I wanted to try indoor rock climbing!!]
[I understand you upstairs, I have even taken action, but the reality is that my brain understands but my hands and feet are paralyzed]
[Why do you have to embarrass yourself hahaha]
[I hope the new and old viewers in the live broadcast room can understand the truth: there is a wall between us and Brother Lu, and the differences in the world are fully revealed here]
[Fuck, hahahahaha]
Lu Liran looked down, he nodded slightly to Ke Ji on the raft, and then turned around to take in the panoramic view of the reef island.
The drone also rose into the air to take pictures of the entire island.
This small island is not big, probably only one-tenth of the previous desert island. The island is almost entirely covered with rugged rocks and not much vegetation coverage.
Seeing this, Lu Liran frowned and smiled bitterly: “It’s a pretty barren island. I’m afraid only some seabirds will visit here. There shouldn’t be any fresh water resources here.”
[Ah, isn’t that climbing in vain?]
[This is the disadvantage of not having a script, everything will not go as planned…]
[This is the worldly reality of shipwrecked people QAQ]
[It’s so miserable, don’t you think so]
Lu Liran breathed out and nodded slightly: “Indeed, when you fully hope to obtain some resources on land, you find that reality and conjecture are completely two extremes. This is really desperate.”
“But no matter what, the essence of survival is to not let go of any possible hope and struggle with all your strength. After all, no one knows whether the next chance of turning around will be on the abandoned hope.”
Lu Liran said, planning to go down from the other side of the reef.
The way up and down is different, which means the route needs to be adjusted and it is impossible to go back the same way.
“It’s a bit strenuous, so go slow.” He muttered.
He went all the way down, and when he passed a small crack in the mountain, he suddenly stopped and his eyes lit up.
“Look!” He whispered.
The drone immediately flew closer and saw a full bird’s nest stuck in the crack.
The nest held a dozen or so red-speckled eggs, each as big as two palms and a piece, and two or three broken empty shells, presumably chicks that had already broken out of their shells and flown out.
Lu Liran immediately swung his backpack to his chest and put in all the remaining dozen eggs.
He grinned at the camera, then he raised his eyebrows slightly, his eyes seemed to say that hard work pays off.
He didn’t say much, but he went down twice as fast as before.
[Holy shit, what a magical speed this is! Didn’t you say you were tired just now?!]
[Hiss, if you want to be precise, the anchor is talking about a waste of energy. Maybe it doesn’t mean he’s tired? Just saving energy….?]
[They’ve been drifting in the storm all night, isn’t he tired? You’re kidding me!!!]
[…I finally understand why someone reminded me of the wall before. TAT, this wall must be as thick as the Milky Way!!]
[Laughing to death, is this because of the happiness of having food?]
[Food Incentive√]
Lu Liran quickly reached the bottom, he took a breath, and calmed down. After seeing the comments in the live broadcast room, he said: “The size of the bird’s eggs means that the mother bird must not be small.”
“The largest among seabirds is the red-throated whalebird, with a wingspan of four meters, a body length of one meter, and a weight of twenty to thirty kilograms. Most of the seabirds that attack tourists are this bird, which is aggressive and very protective of their cubs.”
“I remember there were red spots on its eggs.”
“Although I don’t want to cause trouble, stealing eggs is a last resort in order to survive.”
“It’s best not to eat bird meat raw. If you encounter a sandbar, you can consider climbing on the sandbar and lighting a fire to relax.”
Lu Liran licked his lips, he jumped into the sea, and swam back to the raft quickly.
[??? Why did you jump from bird eggs to bird meat?]
[Brother Lu, is he clearly arranging the adult bird seeking revenge?]
[Fuck, I saw the anchor licking his lips, foul temptation!]
[Temptation? You’re overthinking it, Brother Lu is just hungry]
