The Martial Artist Turned Movie Mogul-Chapter 878 - 877. Can I borrow a lighter?

Relative to the options, Tang Shu was more inclined to choose the latter, after all, counting on Wen Nuan, the demoness, to have a lopsided eye was hardly possible.

"However, I’ve been searching for ages and only managed to find wild fruits. I finally came across a small freshwater stream and even then, found no fish."

"If there’s nothing swimming in the water, what about something flying in the sky?"

"Huh?"

Ren Xiazhi had a "you’ve got to be kidding me" expression on his face, his astonishment obvious without words.

Tang Shu didn’t say a word, she broke a few branches off a nearby tree and with a few scrapes of her dagger, quietly listened to the surrounding sounds.

Before Ren Xiazhi could comprehend what these series of actions were for, he saw the beautiful lady he had just met suddenly kick a large tree beside her. Startled birds roosting on the tree took flight, filling the air with flurried noise, accompanied by various bird calls.

In the next instant, it seemed as if a gust of wind blew by, followed by the simultaneous screeches of three birds that plummeted toward the ground.

"!!!"

The young boy was once again left with his mouth agape.

He swore that he’d seen so many surprises today that he might use up half a year’s worth of reaction memes!

Everyone here to participate in the test really did have exceptional skills!

Tang Shu calmly shrugged, "There, we’ve got something now, haven’t we?"

"But we don’t have fire." freewebnøvel.com

Don’t tell me this gorgeous lady is going to demonstrate how to make a fire by friction?

"This..."

Tang Shu stroked her chin pondering for a while and then snapped her fingers, "We can just borrow some."

Borrow?

How to borrow?

"Sister Tang Shu, everyone has formed their teams this afternoon, and within each group sharing is fine, but groups are in competition with each other, it’s probably difficult to borrow."

And who knows where the other members are currently located?

Tang Shu didn’t take this problem, which seemed immense, to heart at all, "You can’t just survive on wild fruits with your slim frame. How about we divide the labor? You take care of these birds, and I’ll handle borrowing fire."

"No problem at all."

He was just fearful that she couldn’t borrow any—

Ren Xiazhi thought to himself that after he finished dealing with the three birds, he’d find a dry piece of wood. With what he learned from nine years of compulsory education, he was confident that he could master the fire-starting technique invented by our ancestors.

However, as he carried the dead birds towards a nearby stream, he saw Tang Shu’s figure blur like an afterimage, heading straight towards the Northwest direction!

Following that, noises of a skirmish and muffled grunts came from that direction and soon subsided.

A slender figure in camouflage emerged from the lush bushes—it was Tang Shu, who had vanished only two minutes prior, and she was now holding two backpacks of the same color.

"!!!"

Oh heavens, who could tell him what was going on now?!

His brain, also referred to as a computer, couldn’t keep up, as if it had crashed.

"I need to reboot... oh spit!"

Ren Xiazhi felt he was speaking incoherently. He tiptoed and looked towards the not-too-distant bushes to discover another three heads emerging from behind the foliage, faces painted in camouflage with green twigs attached, but their complexions weren’t too great.

Wait a minute... The people appearing in the assessment area, dressed in camouflage and disguised, weren’t they the evaluation squad who occasionally eliminated participants?

And they were taken out just like that??

Is it just me that’s off, or is the world off?

Tang Shu, with one hand holding two army-green backpacks, reached into one and rummaged around, then pulled out a lighter.
