Chapter 389: hidden

</br>
Lin Rui was startled slightly, "The water source is not safe, you better be careful."
The archer glanced at him, "How do you know?"
"I went there last night and the Brazilian beast was there. He doesn't care if you have a bracelet or if you can pose a threat to him. Anyone who approaches that area will be attacked by him." Lin Rui shrugged.
"It's the beast Johnson, can you run away from him alive?" the archer slowly said.
"Not only that, I also hurt him. Injury will only make this more dangerous and more desperate." Lin Rui nodded, "If you want to go, you'd better be careful."
The archer nodded, "Where are you going?"
"Deep in the jungle, see if we can find other sources of water or food. We have another week to go through." Lin Rui said helplessly, "The deep jungle should be relatively safe now. Most people are still in the surrounding areas and haven't gone deep into the jungle. The hinterland is not familiar with the situation there. Those who arrive there earlier will at least be familiar with the terrain faster. This will have an advantage in the next confrontation, even if it is just a little advantage, it is also advantageous."
The archer nodded, turned and walked into the woods.
Lin Rui didn't follow. He knew that the archer still wanted to try his luck at the water source. But he didn't want to go to that place anyway, he was willing to go deep into the woods. So after Lin Rui left the lonely archer, he continued to walk into the depths of the forest.
This time his luck was good, he found a few trees with insects. Successfully caught several fat bugs from the tree. This kind of bugs resembled silkworms with a smooth body surface, but they were very fat, each with almost the thickness of a finger.
Lin Rui was hungry, grabbing the bug and biting. This squirming bug looks disgusting, but the taste is not unpleasant. And there is a delicate fragrance of leaves. In the wild, insects are the best food besides snakes and rats, because these insects have a high protein content and are absolutely non-toxic.
It would be better if it could be cooked on fire, but Lin Rui really couldn't take care of that much. After eating a few worms in a row, he felt a lot more comfortable in his stomach. The extreme hunger finally subsided a little bit, at least there was something in my stomach that could be digested.
After eating something, Lin Rui continued on the road. Along the way, he met several eliminated contestants, most of whom were looking for him wearing a bracelet. However, Lin Rui avoided them alertly and moved on. Finally, in a woods, Lin Rui stopped. He looked at the surrounding terrain. This place was in a relatively high position, and some surrounding conditions could be observed here, and the surrounding tall trees were relatively sparse, which happened to give some low bushes a living space. So here the bush grows a bit densely.
Lin Rui nodded in satisfaction. It was not the way for him to wander around like this himself. Perhaps he could create a hiding place here.
He searched nearby, found a relatively hidden location, and then dug out a foxhole.
I have to say that digging a hole with bare hands is indeed a tiring task, but Lin Rui still gritted his teeth and finished it. And because this is just a shelter for temporary shelter, it doesn't need to be too formal at all. The drain and the anti-grenade slot can be eliminated. Lin Rui just wanted to dig out a single-soldier bunker that was enough for him to curl up and rest without being discovered. So more consideration is concealment rather than protection.
After the hole was dug, Lin Rui covered the top with a layer of branches and soil, patted it firmly, and used the fallen leaves in the woods as a camouflage. He walked up carefully personally, tried it, and the effect was not bad. Not to mention that very few people come to this place. Even if someone walks on it, it is not easy to find it. The bottom is actually a bunker.
After finishing all this, Lin Rui bowed into the bunker. At this time, he was completely relaxed and covered some dead grass leaves above the bunker. Lin Rui leaned against the bunker and took a nap in a posture of not lying half sitting. This sleep is the most comfortable sleep he has had since participating in the Waynes competition.
Now that he has a relatively safe hiding place, Lin Rui's next time is to go out to find food and water every day. He knows that at this stage, the contestants still have the strength to toss, and as long as a few days pass, they will all be languid. As long as you can bear loneliness at this stage, you can rest well. When that time comes, wait for work with ease, and he won't be afraid of anyone.
He found several trees nearby, which were full of some kind of nuts. It should be a nut like an acorn, resembling a silkworm. The outer surface is hard shell, brown-red, the inner kernel is like peanut kernel, which is rich in starch. Lin Rui chewed, a bit bitter but edible.
As for the water source, he also found a mountain stream, but the water inside was not clean. Lin Rui managed to dig a small hole not far from the water source. Every day, water slowly penetrates into this pit, which is equivalent to filtering with the surrounding soil. There is not much water, but barely enough for him to consume for a day.
It was calm for the first day or two. Lin Rui was well rested, and his abdominal injuries were gradually recovering. But on the third day, this calm was broken, and other contestants began to appear in the depths of the originally quiet forest. Most of these people are extremely exhausted and hungry, and almost all of them are injured. There are winners who pass the first stage with a bracelet, and there are also knockouts to save the defeat.
There are fierce fights almost every day, unfolding deep in the dense forest. From the initial battle for the bracelet, it has evolved into a battle for food and water. Most of the time, Lin Rui concealed himself in the foxhole motionless. Only when you get food and drinking water, come out for activities.
His location is relatively hidden, and it is difficult to find him even if there are other contestants nearby. But he can hide in the bunker and have a clear view of the situation outside. But when it reached the fourth day, the situation changed. A few people stayed at the location of the mountain stream.
This was tantamount to cutting off Lin Rui's water source in disguise, which made Lin Rui very annoyed. So he approached and inspected it secretly, and he found the three contestants of Morningstar. Scarface Sneaker, tall and thin Kane, and Johnson who is as strong as a bison.
One of Johnson's eyes seemed to be blind, tied with a dirty cloth, stained with blood. The area around the wound seemed to be inflamed, red and swollen, but he was still brave and irritable. Even the same tyrannical Scarface Sneaker stayed away from him. No one intended to provoke this dangerous beast.
