Chapter 29 Accusing Someone Else

The sun hung high in the sky. Wen Jian had the vast and boundless ocean in front of her and the terrifyingly dense forest, which was overgrown with wild plants behind her.

Wen Jian looked all around the coastal reefs. Her eyelids were affected, and she could not see clearly after being bathed in the sun for some time.

Wen Jian knelt, exhausted since she had not eaten much today.

This variety show was something she had worked hard to get, but she didn’t expect it to be like this.

There was no one else here, and it was hot and humid.

“Did you find any clues?”

Qin Yitan ran out of the forest, exhausted. Seeing Wen Jian’s figure, he quickly walked toward her.

Wen Jian looked at him in a stupor as she swept the hot sand off the ground with a branch in her hand.

“No, I haven’t. What about you?”

“I don’t have any, either.”

Qin Yitan had run all the way here and was sweating quite a bit. At that moment, he felt his hair sticking to his forehead. He asked Wen Jian, “Can you check if my hair is oily?”

Wen Jian lifted her head slowly like a sloth and looked at Qin Yitan’s head. “I can’t see clearly. It’s reflective.”

Qin Yitan’s fingers stroking his hair paused, and he was dumbfounded.

Wen Jian replied, “I’m not saying that your hair is so oily until it’s reflective, but the light reflecting from your head is too glaring. I can’t see it clearly.”

Qin Yitan heaved a long sigh of relief.

Fortunately, his image was not ruined.

The two of them continued to look for clues at the beach.

When Lin Xinmeng and Zhou Moli walked over to them, they stood up in excitement.

However, before they could say anything, they heard an announcement from the program team about the mission’s progress.

The four of them froze on the spot. At first, their faces were filled with confusion, and then they were filled with doubts.

“How did Lu Mingyu and Lu Yang only complete one mission?” all of them wondered.

Qin Yitan had been keeping an eye on Lu Mingyu all this time. He was even paying attention to whether Lu Mingyu had gotten any clues. Could it be that he had completed the mission in such a short time?

As for Lin Xinmeng, she had just asked the system about it this morning. As of this morning, the other groups still had no clue about the mission.

Qin Yitan tried to suppress his displeasure. “Did Lu Mingyu’s team hide the clues?”

“How detestable! Could Lu Mingyu have bribed the program team too,, and found out what the mission was in advance? Damn the program team! The clues were supposed to be top secret, and a few people knew about them,” Qin Yitan thought.

Just as everyone was puzzled, Lu Yang and Lu Mingyu returned.

Lin Xinmeng stepped forward. Although she was furious, there was hurt in her eyes. “Lu Yang, did I do something wrong? Did you point us the wrong direction because of that?”

Lu Yang wiped the sweat off her forehead as she looked at Lin Xinmeng with a calm expression.

Lin Xinmeng’s eyes flickered as she said in disbelief, “Could it be because of that matter?”

As she turned her gaze away from Lu Yang, she murmured to herself. She said this a few times while maintaining a sharp expression of mystery.

Lu Yang was slightly taken aback, but she allowed Lin Xinmeng to continue.

“That incident happened a long time ago. Lu Yang, you can blame me, but the others are innocent. You can lie to me but not him.”

Without a shadow of a doubt, Lin Xinmeng was suggesting that Zhou Moli did not deserve to be lied to.

“What incident?” Qin Yitan suddenly had an idea.

He mused, “I’ll contact the public relations team and frantically release press releases to slander Lu Mingyu and drag him down!”

“What’s happening? I just joined the broadcast, and it’s already so exciting?”

“Lin Xinmeng’s eyes look so hurt. I’m always in the wrong when a beautiful girl like her cries.”

“Did anyone pay attention to Zhou Moli’s expression? He seems to be having a good time with Lin Xinmeng! Previously, it was Zhou Moli who was concerned about Lin Xinmeng. Now, it’s Lin Xinmeng who is seeking justice for Zhou Moli.”

The netizens were excited, and Lu Yang wasn’t to be outdone.

“The slope of the ant nest does certainly face south. If you don’t trust me, you can look up the relevant material. As for that matter, which one are you talking about?”

Lu Yang’s long and thick eyelashes were curled. Her side profile looked innocent and harmless under the bright light and shadow, but there was a hidden firmness in her heart.

“Did you find any clues by specifically looking for the north?”

Lin Xinmeng had two clues in her hands, but she didn’t want to tell anyone.

She was flustered, her teeth chattering as she stammered, “I-I…”

The system had clearly said that she had a higher chance of winning if she questioned her with the image of a victim. “But why am I the one being questioned?” Lin Xinmeng thought.

“Aren’t you the ones who hid the clues?” Qin Yitan glared at them. You’re covering yourself up by accusing someone else!”

Lu Mingyu actually managed to solve the first mission. He felt so indignant.

“You’re not in the right mind.” Lu Mingyu said coldly, “You’re blaming us for being too outstanding?”

Lu Yang placed her hand on Lu Mingyu’s elbow, indicating for him to scale back his criticisms.

She said frankly, “We got the answer by guessing randomly. Mission 7 was to deal with the garbage by the sea and reduce the pollution of the ocean.”

The four of them were surprised.

They didn’t expect Lu Yang to reveal the mission so easily.

The program team was equally stunned.

The second season of wilderness was the same as the first season. It was an individual competition.

However, one of the variety show’s game producers was invested with the Lin Xinmeng and Zhou Moli pair, so they decided to split the guests into groups first and then calculate the individual scores.

Missions could be found in groups, and groups added points, but the final ranking of points was based on individuals.

The points of each guest were composed of many factors. In addition to the points for solving missions and completing tasks, there was also the online popularity ranking.

No one expected Lu Yang to hand over the mission so easily.

The ice-cold prince charming, Zhou Moli, stood there like a statue for a long time, then he questioned, “How did you know the answer to the mission?”

Before asking, he naturally had to tell the other party what he knew.

“We have indeed found two clues, but they have yet to be solved.”

Everyone turned to look at Zhou Moli. Lin Xinmeng stared at the person beside her in surprise, and countless uncertainties rose in her heart.

She wanted to help him complete the mission without anyone knowing and get first place.

Lin Xinmeng inquired, “System, what’s going on?”

“The storyline is proceeding normally. The host does not need to panic. The script in which everyone will like you is in your hands. Next, Lu Mingyu, a male supporting character, will have a favorable opinion of you after an accident.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Xinmeng’s tensed heart finally relaxed.

“What mission?” Wen Jian asked.

“Mission 3 and 7,” Zhou Moli replied.

Qin Yitan was shocked.

No wonder they couldn’t find a single clue. It was all in the hands of Zhou Moli.

Lu Yang took the bamboo basket off her shoulder and placed it on the flat ground. “Mingyu thought of the answer.”

Lu Mingyu raised his eyebrows. “It was a random guess.”

“What’s the answer?”

“Lao Tzu.” Lu Mingyu replied.

“Lu Mingyu, what are you saying?” Qin Yitan said with a look of justice. “It’s not like Lin Xinmeng has offended you.”

Lu Mingyu rolled his eyes at him. “Lao Tzu is the author of Taoism Classics. ”

“What Taoism Classics?” Qin Yitan asked.

“… Taoism Classics is a famous book,” Wen Jian replied.

Although Zhou Moli didn’t think they were skilled liars, he didn’t want to waste any more time.

Lin Xinmeng’s voice softened. “Perhaps they were just lucky,” she said.

“I still want to use seawater to see if I can find new clues.”
