Due to being overtaken by other teams, Han Meimei finally got serious today, her speed improved a lot compared to yesterday, and she slowly caught up with the two teams in front of her.

It is clear that the first two teams are of the night owl type, and they travel as slowly as snails during the day.

Ivan's team needed to rest because of the injured player, and Team 2 was because they couldn't cheat during the day, so by noon, Han Meimei had successfully closed the gap to 50 kilometers.

Compared with Wu Jun's rapid establishment of the camp yesterday, these two teams that suddenly broke out caused more discussion among netizens.

There are endless claims of cheating, but the organizers didn't explain much about it, but released a video shot by the two teams themselves.

Everyone shut up when they saw Ivan like a bulldozer, cutting through the thick bushes with a large knife to make a straight passage.

However, the video of Team 2 is not convincing, although they move fast, the video time is only half an hour.

That doesn't mean anything at all, but what about outside of this half-hour?

Did they use a means of transport, such as a helicopter for the film crew?

And after a night's trekking, their spirits were still full, and their clothes were still relatively clean, which made everyone's suspicions even greater.

Instead of disqualifying them, the Discovery Channel focused on this group as the main team, which even many Europeans themselves couldn't watch.

"This is already blatant cheating! shameless guy, what a shame!"

"How can such a show be convincing?"

"Do we already need to use this despicable method to win the game?"

......

But no matter how netizens condemned it, the organizers didn't seem to see these remarks, and the game was still going on normally.

In the afternoon, Wu Jun and his party had already arrived at the edge of the swamp.

From here, you will enter the toughest and most dangerous areas of the Amazon basin.

The woods here are soaked in water all year round, and the ground is covered with rotting leaves and silt, and sometimes the water on the ground rises by tens of centimeters during a heavy rain.

The dirty water is full of caimans, slippery electric eels, and some highly venomous frogs, poisonous insects, poisonous snakes, leeches, etc.

Under the sun's rays, the air will also be filled with toxic gases.

In such an environment, the average person can travel 10 kilometers a day, which is considered very fast.

Hanmeimei stayed in front of a stinking swamp, which was no problem for her, as she could climb trees and could use ropes to move quickly from tree to tree.

But what about Fang Heng and Qin Xiaoyu?

The two of them were carrying something so heavy on their backs that they might sink into the deep mud with every step they took.

"Why don't you leave?" Fang Heng almost hit her headbutt and couldn't help asking.

"I'm thinking about how you're going to go. ”

Fang Heng looked at the swamp in front of him and shrugged his shoulders indifferently: "It's not difficult, you better think about how you can get there." ”

Not difficult?

Han Meimei looked at him with wide eyes.

Fang Heng was a little embarrassed by her big eyes, and his face turned a little red.

"Why, I didn't talk nonsense, this is not difficult. Fang Heng was afraid that she wouldn't believe it, so he added, "Really, you have to believe me, we didn't use any strength on the roads ahead. ”

Han Meimei: ...... If you don't use force, what will happen if you use force?

"Ahem," Han Meimei said, "Then why don't you take a walk first?" ”

"Good. ”

Fang Heng nodded honestly and took off the weight on his body first.

From here, it's not good to use weights anymore, so it will be slow to climb trees.

Then he put his backpack back on his back, climbed to a tree with his bare feet, kicked his feet hard, and bounced like a cannonball to another tree, without stopping at all, and bounced into the next tree.

After a dozen bounces, Han Meimei couldn't see him.

This guy is so powerful!

Fang Heng was the kind of person who didn't like to talk, and he basically didn't communicate with her along the way, but Han Meimei really didn't expect that this silent big boy, carrying such a heavy thing, would be even faster than her!

What about Qin Xiaoyu?

Seeing Han Meimei looking at her, Qin Xiaoyu also smiled and nodded, and soon followed Fang Heng's example and jumped up in the woods.

In order to participate in this competition, she had practiced in the woods of Wangzi Mountain for several days before, and although her speed was not as fast as that of Shang Heng, it was enough to shock Han Meimei.

No wonder the master said before that let her play freely, they will definitely not fall behind, and now it seems that this is really the case.

Now it looks like she's the weakest one on the team!

If they hadn't been there, they should have been able to reach the finish line faster, right?

At this time, Wu Jun rushed up with Da Hei and Jasmine, as well as a large group of film crews.

Han Meimei was curious, how would Wu Jun move?

"Master, how are you going?"

Wu Jun frowned, how to walk, of course, it is to walk with feet.

With that, he took out a set of waterproof clothing from his backpack, put it on, and strode into the swamp.

Han Meimei: ...... That's too ordinary, isn't it?

I thought I could see a cooler pose, but your old man walked in with such a swagger?

Da Hei and Jasmine frowned and looked at the muddy water, Jasmine originally wanted to jump the tree, but Wu Jun thought it was too attention-grabbing, so it was better to walk honestly from the ground.

They followed without hesitation, waving their paws at the camera.

The film crew breathed a sigh of relief, if Wu Jun and the two dogs could also jump trees, then they would be miserable.

But they soon discovered that they were wrong.

Although Wu Jun was walking, he was not slow at all, and he didn't stop at all, and the people in the film crew couldn't even catch up.

That's kind of weird.

In the end, the film crew had no choice but to use helicopters and drones to follow in the sky.

Fortunately, when it was dark, Wu Jun and the others did not rush to leave at night, but continued to clear a dry place, began to make tables and benches, set up stoves and tents, and made a lot of delicious dinner.

"Ho ho ho, I really didn't guess wrong," Edler watched their live broadcast and smiled like an innocent child, "They did make a sumptuous dinner again!"

"I don't understand," said Bell, "obviously they have already tied the two teams in front of them, and if they continue to hold on until midnight, they may be able to go ahead, but I think now is not a good time to enjoy it." ”

"Tempo!" said Ed, "you noticed Ed, this team is the best of all the teams, they eat when they should eat, rest when they should rest, and hurry when they should hurry, which is very rare for jungle exploration. ”

"But what about the game?" Bell wondered, "Is controlling the pace more important than winning the game?"

"Yes, at least that's what I think, it would be terrible to lose your rhythm in the wilderness," Ed said, "and now I'm sure they're going to win." ”

"Isn't it too early to say that?"

Ed smiled without saying a word, and as a veteran explorer, he believed in his own vision.

......

For the next few days, Team 10 maintained a 200-kilometer course every day and enjoyed a hearty breakfast and dinner.

There were Fang Heng and Jasmine, the two big stomach kings, and their backpacks also deflated at an extremely fast speed.

So the crocodiles and poisonous snakes that lurked in the swamps began to be unlucky.

However, to everyone's surprise, it was not the captain Han Meimei who went out to hunt, but Daihei and Jasmine, who had been serving as laborers.

This is the first time Jasmine has eaten a crocodile, so she can't stop it, and she has to make several of them every day for Qin Xiaoyu to help it do it with different tricks.

Of course, there is also a huge tiger fish, which is also a rare delicacy in the Amazon River, and Wu Jun hooked a big guy of more than 30 catties with a fishing rod, so that everyone could eat a beautiful meal.

This made Han Meimei quite helpless, she thought that this competition would be difficult, she was ready to lose 10 pounds, but now she not only looks not thin at all, but also feels fat!

The leather jacket and leather pants that used to fit well are now worn tightly, and the buttons on the chest are about to be loosened.

I don't know how to explain it to the fans after I go back?

Is it to blame that the food in the Amazon basin is too good?

Someone must believe this!

But it wasn't her weight that worried her, but the No. 2 and No. 9 teams, which kept the lead.

It's now 10 days into the race and they've finally arrived in Manaus.

But teams 2 and 9 had already arrived two days earlier, built rafts, and made rafts down the wide main stream of the Amazon River.

If nothing goes wrong, they will have five days at most and they will be able to reach the finish line and take first and second place in the race.

Han Meimei sighed quietly, judging from this situation, they couldn't catch up.

The speed of the river is fixed, and the difference in the speed of the raft is not too large, so the winner is basically divided in Manaus.

Obviously he can win the championship, but now he can only win the third place.

But in this way, she is already very satisfied, if it weren't for the masters along the way, she might still be struggling in the mud like the next few teams.

So, what's not satisfied?

"What's wrong?" Fang Heng sighed when he saw her sitting on the edge of the wide river, and couldn't help but smile and asked, "Are you not accustomed to the water and soil?"

Seeing that Fang Heng could still smile so happily now, Han Meimei said in her heart I am indeed unaccustomed, but I obey you.

"I just want to ask, why are you able to maintain such an optimistic attitude at all times?" Han Meimei said, "It's clear that we're going to lose, but you still don't look like you're in a hurry at all." ”

Fang Heng's face changed when he heard this: "No, someone has already reached the end?"

Han Meimei: ...... Haven't you ever cared about the progress of the game?

Didn't care at all?

Don't you know where the other teams are going?

"No, but they've been on a raft and drifting on the river for two days and two nights!"

"Whew-then you still say that we lost, it just scares me!" Fang Heng patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, we will be able to surpass them in no time." ”

"How exceed?"

Can you still turn into a small motor?

Even if you can conjure it, you won't let it be used, right?

Fang Heng smiled mysteriously, then pointed to a large pile of wood on the ground and said, "They make rafts, and we make ships, of course the speed is faster than them." ”

Steamship?

Han Meimei couldn't help blinking, this thing can be made casually?

"Don't worry, leave it to me," Fang Heng patted his chest, "When I was at home, I had already tried to make one, and I tried it in the pond, and the effect was good." ”

Saying that, Fang Heng took out a bag of tools that only carpenters use, and began to chop and chisel the wood, and in one meal, a keel was inlaid and completed.

Next, they put wooden planks around it, filled the gaps with glue, and finally made two huge water wheels.

Not only Han Meimei and the film crew, but even everyone who watched the live broadcast was stunned by his fast and exquisite skills.

"This is really an old ship!"

"If those two water wheels can turn, they will reach speeds of up to 20 kilometers per hour!"

"No, at least 25 km!"

"No wonder they are not in a hurry, it turns out that the killer is here!"

......

"Ho ho ho ......" Ed smiled so hard that the wrinkles on his face were huddled together when he saw a wooden steamer several meters long finally take shape, "Look at Bell, we're not wrong, I knew they could do it!"

"To be honest, this Chinese boy, no, the whole team surprised me too much," Bell said, "I decided to invite them to my show, maybe we can become friends." ”

"I'm not sure if we'll be friends," said Ed, "but I'm sure if one of them is around, you won't have to eat those disgusting bugs wherever you are!"

Bell smiled happily and said, "It's all protein, and it's chicken." ”

Whoop -

Fang Heng pushed the ship into the water, and Han Meimei couldn't wait to sit on it.

A small boat several meters long, in the main stream of the Amazon River, which is several kilometers wide, looks like a small leaf.

"You can name this ship!" Wu Jun said with a smile as he looked at Han Meimei's happy appearance.

"Really?

"You're the captain. ”

Han Meimei thought for a while and said, "Then call it the champion number and take us to win the championship!"

Well, the name is down-to-earth.

"Then what are we waiting for?" Han Meimei couldn't wait, "Come up quickly, let's go!"

"Don't worry," Fang Heng shouted from the shore at this time, "The table and bench haven't been made yet, and the boiling table hasn't been made yet!"

"You also have to prepare enough firewood," Qin Xiaoyu walked over carrying a large bundle of dry firewood, "Dahei, you go catch some crocodiles, and you won't have much to eat!"

"By the way, I'm going to make a sail so we can make it easier. ”

Han Meimei: ......

......

After another busy half a day, the preparations were finally completed.

Han Meimei stood at the bow of the boat and shouted at the river like an ocean: "Victory, go!"

Whoa—

Fang Heng and Qin Xiaoyu stepped on the pedals at the same time, driving the two huge water wheels to rotate, and the Victory began to sail downstream at a very fast speed.

Wu Jun sat on a chair that smelled of fresh wood, making tea while looking at the barren land on both sides.

In the past, these places were covered with dense forests, but now there are only some shrubs and wild grasses left.

In fact, slash-and-burn farming is not impossible, but he does not understand that after a large number of forests have been cut down, the people here leave the land there to grow grass, and do not plant crops or trees.

If this continues, this beautiful rainforest will cease to exist in a few decades.

It's really sad and lamentable.

But he could only sigh.

Looking at the scenery of the rapid retreat on both sides of the strait and feeling the oncoming wind, Han Meimei couldn't help but beat faster.

At this rate, the championship is expected!
