The whole company draws lots online, and the variety show is lined up

Chapter 71 Return to the Countryside (68)

Anyway, the team in front of him had answered incorrectly and were still waiting. There was still a chance even if they got it wrong, so there was no need to be afraid.

The glorious old man team: Thank you!

When the old man heard what they said, he nodded, and handed the fan in his hand to Wen Chen's team with a smile.

What was handed to him was not only the fan, but also a small note.

"This is the clue for the next level. It's a team competition and the content cannot be shared."

Seeing that the Glorious Team was still trying to get some clues, the old man added another sentence.

Seeing the looks they gave him, he took out the same palm-leaf fan from the bag beside him and continued fanning himself.

He looked like he was waiting for someone to fall into a trap, yet he was calm and composed, as still as a mountain.

As soon as Guanghui saw this, he knew that there was no shortcut and he still had to go to the old man to answer questions before he could proceed to the next step.

He rolled up his sleeves and stared at the old man to see what questions he could come up with.

Anyway, there are only two teams, one team has passed, and this team is the only one left here.

No matter whether you cheat or muddle through, you have to get through it eventually.

"Tell me, what's the topic?"

Old Master Guanghui had a hunch that the previous question had already been answered, and he would definitely not let them take advantage of the opportunity to answer the same question again.

I guess it’s another question related to fans.

Obviously, Mr. Guan Hui's feeling was not wrong at all. As the old man spoke, the new questions were even more difficult than the previous ones, causing them to be stuck at the first level and unable to move forward.

"Please give us the detailed description of the banana fan in Journey to the West."

This question is neither difficult nor easy.

The TV series "Journey to the West" is a classic old drama. Everyone has watched the basic content over and over again, and I don’t know how many times.

In the plot, if we talk about the glorious old man alone, he can defeat the entire team.

But the key lies in the two specific words in the title.

To put it in a general and concise way, the old man shook his head.

Even after describing it in detail, the old man still shook his head.

Guanghui was also puzzled. He felt that what he said was not wrong?

Could it be that all those years of watching Journey to the West were in vain?

Old Master Guanghui even doubted himself whether he had missed any important parts.

Several people got together and discussed for a long time, and finally tried several times before they finally found the answer.

"In Journey to the West, there are two palm-leaf fans, one owned by Taishang Laojun and the other by Princess Iron Fan. Palm-leaf fans have yin and yang. The palm-leaf fan used by Taishang Laojun is yang, while the palm-leaf fan used by Princess Iron Fan is yin. The two fans complement and counteract each other."

The glorious old man spoke haltingly that there were some shortcomings, and the team members also helped to fill in the gaps, so they managed to pass the test just barely.

At this point, Na Guanghui couldn't help but start talking about the rest of the story. Compared to his previous introduction, his words this time were much smoother.

"The banana fan appears three times in Journey to the West. The first time is in Pingding Mountain, where it is a treasure used by Taishang Laojun to fan fire. The second time is in Jindou Mountain, where it is used to subdue the blue bull. The third time is the most familiar Huoyan Mountain, where Sun Wukong borrowed the banana fan three times."

The old man Guanghui was so excited that he wanted to talk to the old man who answered questions till dawn.

Or maybe a few other people couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so the people in the team pulled Guanghui, and the logistics personnel pulled the old NPC, and after some push and pull, they finally ended this level.

[Glucose: Hahaha, this is the first time I’ve seen such an uncontrolled live broadcast. ]

[It's too hot: NPCs are out of control, after all, they are not professionals, but even the artists are out of control, which is amazing. 】

[Youth Symphony: I really believe that there is no script in his live broadcast room and everything is real. That old man Guanghui is now just like my grandfather, but he is no longer here. ]

[Six Gods, you are a real God: Hug the upstairs (づ′▽`)づ]

[Drenched Chicken: This question is so difficult. I only remember Sun Wukong's three fights with the Pork Rib Demon and the three borrowings of the banana leaf fan to fan the Flaming Mountain.]

[Don't bow your head or your crown will fall off: My old man at home watches this every day, and it makes me sick. This question hits the spot of the old man, and he still doesn't want to finish it, hahaha.]

After getting the palm-leaf fan from the old man, Song Chuyi fanned the glorious old man, hoping to calm him down.

After recording the program for so long, she was used to Guanghui's calm attitude, but this was the first time she saw Guanghui with this attitude.

It should be said that she wanted to laugh when she thought about the scene just now, no matter how heated the discussion was.

This is probably the generation gap. For the older generation, this drama has accompanied them as they grew up, and they never get tired of watching it. It is something that cannot be replaced by any other drama.

The glorious old man took a breath and adjusted his breathing.

He pointed to the place where the old man left and said.

"I'll go talk to him after today. It's been a while since I've found someone who likes Journey to the West as much as I do."

He knew so many people of his generation, and it wasn't that no one liked Journey to the West, but no matter how much they liked it, no one would discuss it as endlessly as he did.

After talking too much, people got annoyed, so he gave up looking for a partner.

Now, he actually found a good friend who also likes "Journey to the West". How could he not be happy?

I didn't notice any signs of this during my usual morning exercises, so I guess it was the same situation as him.

We happened to meet at this time, it's really rare to meet a soulmate!

"Okay, okay, um, let's end it and stop chatting."

Song Chuyi was helpless and agreed perfunctorily, then hurriedly changed the subject, fearing that they would talk endlessly.

When he walked until he could hardly see the old man anymore, he looked down at the note he had received.

The note was crumpled into a ball by her at this time. She looked at the flamboyant handwriting and read it half-guessingly.

"The fan... was borrowed from Auntie Tian's house. Please go to... Auntie Tian's house... to return the fan."

After reading, Song Chuyi wiped the sweat from his face and said complainingly.

"This handwriting is too hard to read. Why don't you find someone who writes more neatly? Does this handwriting mean you want to stand shoulder to shoulder with the doctor?"

Mo Hepu sneezed in the director's room, and he just wanted to say this.

I wrote it, so what!

It is common knowledge that there is a chicken farmer named Auntie Tian in the villa.

Aunt Tian’s house is located at the very edge of the villa, close to the top of the mountain.

The chickens at home are not the kind that are mechanically raised and fed in cages, but purely free-range chickens.

Because this kind of chicken runs in the mountains all year round and its main food is grains and insects, it may not be as fat as feed chickens, but its meat is more delicious.

When they went back and forth for recording, most of the eggs and chicken they brought were purchased from Aunt Tian's house.

Although you have to pay extra for it, this free-range chicken can be considered a local chicken. It is not easy to eat local chicken in the city.

Grandma Hua Cui's team got the note first, but Hua Cui was new and not very familiar with Zhuangzi.

Fortunately, Wen Chen, who had participated in the program several times, was there and led the journey without any detours, and the route was fast and accurate.

Wen Chen wiped his mouth and smiled brightly on his blessed round face.

Haha, if I were recording a program, I would buy a dozen free-range chickens for every episode. You would be familiar with it too.

There is no way, because there are so many relatives at home. ＼(`Δ')／

Although he brought so many back each time, some were given to his parents, some to Li Jing's parents, and some to his brothers and sisters, so in the end he had only a few left.

Everyone paid, so it's true that there was no loss, but Aunt Tian is old, and if you buy a lot, the goods are not delivered, and you have to carry them home manually.

With this weight, you can imagine how much blood and sweat he shed along the way. (╥╯﹏╰╥)?

The closer we got to Aunt Tian's house, the louder the cries of the chickens became, one after another and continuously.

Along with it came the unique stench of chicken shit.

Everyone else couldn't help but frown and cover their noses to avoid the smell.

But Grandma Hua Cui remained calm and composed, as if she didn't feel anything.

Wen Chen couldn't help but ask: "Can't you smell this smell?"

He has bought free-range chickens so many times, but he is still a little intolerant of the strong smell of chicken shit.

If he wasn't in the live broadcast room and out of politeness in daily life, he would have wanted to wear a mask to cover his face.

His eyes were sincere, just pure curiosity, without any discrimination.

Grandma Hua Cui has lived for many years and believes that she can judge people clearly based on her many years of experience.

She said with a smile, without any inferiority in her tone.

"Haha, have you forgotten what my job is? If I couldn't stand this little smell, I would have quit this job long ago."

She actually had a job before and received a considerable pension every month. Her children at home were also doing well, so she didn't have to take care of them and spend any excess funds.

I just found a job because I'm retired and can't stay idle at home.

This job is dispensable to her, but with it, she feels less empty every day and has something to look forward to when she wakes up every morning, which is not bad.

After hearing what Grandma Hua Cui said, several people immediately expressed their understanding and said in unison.

"Oh, that's it."

Aunt Tian's home is very simple, just a small cement courtyard. The things in the yard are used for raising chickens or selling chickens, and there is nothing else to do except for business.

At this moment, Aunt Tian is cutting chicken feed to add more natural nutrition to her free-range chickens.

Chicken feed is not feed at all, but leftovers from home, old vegetable leaves from the vegetable garden, etc., mixed with rice bran.

This way, the food is both nutritious and there is no waste of food. This is a method often used by everyone in the village, and the chicken tastes really delicious.

Seeing everyone coming, she belatedly wiped her hands on her apron, and her wrinkled face turned slightly red.

I had never been here for any recordings before. I just came here secretly to buy chickens from Wen Chen and the others. It was my first time on the show and I was being filmed by the camera. I felt a little embarrassed.

"Um, where's my palm leaf fan?"

She spoke in a very formal manner, her behavior was a little stiff, and she was just reciting her lines verbatim.

Hearing Aunt Tian's words, Wen Chen subconsciously handed over the banana fan in his hand.

Aunt Tian took the fan, looked around, saw the "Return to the Countryside" logo pasted by Mo Hepu, and nodded.

"Yes, this is my palm leaf fan. Please catch two colorful chickens so that you can exchange them for five eggs from me."

The free-range chickens here are all raised in the wild. In order to survive, each of them has the necessary skills to climb walls and run on rooftops. If you are not an experienced chicken catching expert, it is not easy to catch them.

Originally, Mo Hepu stipulated the number to be five, but Aunt Tian, ​​knowing the nature of her own chickens, couldn't bear it and after a discussion, she reduced the number to two.

Even so, the following scene was chaotic.

For this program, she specially cordoned off a small area and put a few chickens in it. In order to make the chickens easier to catch, she tied them with several colorful cotton and linen ribbons.

Because of this ribbon, it is also called the five-colored chicken. Any chicken with quick hands can pull its ribbon and catch it.

Grandma Hua Cui is old, so she just stands by and watches while a few young people go out and catch the chickens.

Wen Chen and Bai Menggui, two grown men with strong bones, were not as nimble as Youqu in catching a chicken.

She had the strength because she had been working in the tool room for many years, but she couldn't keep up with the speed.

At the beginning, several people were fighting on their own, each staring at one chicken, but they found that the strategy was wrong, so they started to cooperate to catch chickens.

Until a chicken was surrounded in the corner of the fence, with the chicken's rapid clucking, the three of them worked together and risked being pecked by the chicken, and finally caught the first chicken.

At the same time, Grandma Hua Cui stood in the center of the fence without moving. She waited until the chickens on alert around her relaxed their vigilance and walked slowly along the edge, then she struck out and hit them with one strike.

When catching them, it can almost be said that we can do it at the same time as them.

The task of catching two chickens is now completed, and you can exchange them for five fresh local eggs from Aunt Tian.

This is one of their ingredients today.

Perhaps Guanghui had been chatting with the old man for too long, or perhaps they had moved too quickly.

When Grandma Hua Cui and the others finished their mission and were preparing to proceed to the next step, Grandpa Guanghui and the others arrived here.

It can be said that every step is slow.

You Qu rarely showed his mood. He showed off the small, round country eggs in the basket to Song Chuyi with some pride and said happily.

"Look! These are the eggs we exchanged. We are afraid they might get damaged on the way, so we have to put them back home first."

Song Chuyi was inspired by her showing off and became competitive. He raised his chin and said to her in a unyielding manner.

"Humph, we will catch up sooner or later!"

Her arrogant words were particularly cute and a little childish.

Grandma Hua Cui asked You Qu to deliver the eggs back first and then gather at the next mission point.

Maybe it’s because the longer you spend with someone, the better the relationship and the more similar your personalities become.

You Qu, who was originally socially anxious, became more lively after being led by Song Chuyi.

When Youqu left, he raised his chin to Song Chuyi and sneered, his voice clear and crisp.

His face was full of smiles and he looked extremely proud.

Two people of this age are showing off themselves like children of a few years old. It's so childish.
