I Rely on Spreading Intangible Cultural Heritage to Go Viral Across the Universe

Sang Ning awakened. She found herself on a barren planet with only a knife as her equipment and supplies.

To survive and claim the高额奖金and habitable planet, primitive species Sang Ning...

Chapter 29 Can I borrow a light?

With all the fire-starting equipment ready, Sang Ning was about to get started when Luo Tianya came over, eager to try, and said, "Ningning, can I do it?"

"You can't get out."

Before Sang Ning could speak, Mu Tao poured cold water on her.

Luo Tianya scoffed, "You're the one who can't do it, I can do it perfectly well."

"Don't swear."

Monet grabbed a large crab and tossed it into her basket. Luo Tianya said "Oh," and asked Sang Ning, "Ningning, is this okay?"

"···OK!"

Sang Ning handed him the wooden stick, "Here you go."

"Okay!"

Luo Tianya responded loudly, then squatted down and recalled how Sang Ning had started a fire before. Feeling that he could do it, he picked up a small stick and began to rub wood together to start a fire, just like Sang Ning had done.

It's better than Mu Tao. You have to understand that when Mu Tao drilled, his palms were sore but not a wisp of smoke came out, let alone fire.

At least Luo Tianya emerged from the smoke.

Seeing smoke drifting out, Mu Tao's eyes widened suddenly, while Luo Tianya was overjoyed and quickly lowered his head to blow the smoke.

Then···

The cigarette is gone.

The fire naturally didn't get off.

He tried several more times, but still failed, and became increasingly frustrated.

But they still stubbornly tried to start a fire.

Therefore, he chose to seek help from Sang Ning.

Sang Ning was willing to teach, but she just couldn't be a teacher. She had no idea how to teach and could only go by feeling.

Then, Luo Tianya was in despair, and Sang Ning became agitated.

Seeing him fail again, she couldn't stand it any longer and snatched the stick, saying, "I'll do it. By the time you get the fire going, the daylily will be cold."

Before she finished speaking, she slammed the stick down, and the pile of dry grass, which had been silent since Luo Tianya first drilled into it, started to smolder again.

Sang Ning gently blew on the spot where the smoke was coming from, and a wisp of flame shot out with a whoosh. Mu Tao quickly grabbed a handful of grass and put it on, then added some dry twigs.

In no time, the fire raged, and the thin branches caught fire as well. Mu Tao quickly placed the thicker pieces of wood, split by the laser axe, onto the fire.

Luo Tianya, "!!!"

Viewers in the live stream exclaimed, "!!!"

"Observe and learn more, and you can start by being an assistant."

Mu Tao was smug, and Luo Tianya wanted to spit at him, but just then, his bracelet made a dinging sound.

This is a gift notification sound; a viewer has sent him a gift.

It must be because his performance was so poor that the audience was encouraging him.

They were absolutely amazing viewers.

"I don't know how, yet someone sends me money..."

The unfinished words came to an abrupt halt upon seeing the donation comment. At this moment, Luo Tianya's feelings were complicated. He looked at the donation comment, held back for a while, and finally couldn't help but complain, "You even gave me a donation just to call me trash. I really thank you, generous viewer!"

If you're rich and showy, you could give a small tip, but what's the point of giving a large tip?

Does calling him a piece of trash elevate one's life?

He kept rambling on and on, making the audience burst into laughter.

"Big Tooth ate the heart."

"What's with the name 'Big Tooth'? He's clearly a good-for-nothing. He's useless at everything, but he's number one at complaining about food."

"I used to think that whoever teamed up with Sang Ning was unlucky, but I was naive. The unlucky one is not the player she teams up with, but Sang Ning herself. I'm starting to feel sorry for Sang Ning, having to carry three useless guys all by herself."

"Big Peach isn't useless; at least he did a good job with the hard work. Princess Nana is actually alright too; she's stopped being difficult and listens to Sang Ning. She's much more likable than that spoiled princess girl from before."

"Indeed, among the four, Da Yazi is the most useless little good-for-nothing."

"I said that's enough."

Luo Tianya retorted angrily, "Can't you give me some face? Don't you think I have any dignity? Don't you call me a little piece of trash?"

"You're so useless that you're practically invisible to all intelligent life in the universe, what's the point of saving face?"

Without a second thought, the audience attacked him. Luo Tianya fought back, but he was alone while the audience was overwhelmingly large. Each person sent a comment to attack him, and the result was that he was almost driven to despair by the attacks.

It was only when Sang Ning gave him a piece of fruit that his wounded heart was soothed.

This fruit looks a bit strange. It's flat and oval-shaped, milky white in color, with fine blue and purple patterns on it. The colors are quite pretty.

It tastes delicious, crispy and sweet, with a milky aroma.

After taking a bite, his eyes sparkled as he asked Sang Ning, "Ningning, where did you get this fruit?"

I picked them on the way here.

Sang Ning replied while her hands continued moving, and Luo Tianya said "Oh," and then asked, "This fruit is delicious, what's it called?"

"···have no idea."

"ah?"

Basically, any fruit that Sang Ning couldn't name was a fruit she didn't recognize.

Luo Tianya asked in bewilderment, "How do you know this fruit is edible if you don't recognize it?"

“I saw furry little animals eating.”

Luo Tianya, "..."

Luo Tianya's expression immediately twisted; all his gratitude had been wasted.

Indeed, overthinking is a bad habit and should be avoided.

He took a deep breath and said, somewhat speechless, "So, in your heart, I'm on the same level as a small animal."

Sanning, "···"

Sang Ning looked up at him. "It's not that you can't think that way, but don't try to apply it to me. Giving you this fruit was just a convenient thing to do, nothing more."

When Mo Nainai returned carrying another crab, she noticed that the atmosphere between the two was a bit off. Just as she was about to ask what had happened, Luo Tianya suddenly stood up and looked towards the woods, shouting sharply, "Who's there? Show yourself, you cowardly little devil!"

"Wow, Big Tooth is showing its power."

"Am I the only one who thinks Da Ya Zi has outstanding hearing?"

"I think so too."

"I don't care whether Da Yazi's hearing is outstanding or not. I only care about one thing: if there really are contestants coming, where are they? Why can't I see them?"

"Could it be Clyde?"

"Not Clyde."

Some viewers glanced at Clyde's live stream and saw that he was still on his way, so they said, "Clyde will be a few minutes away from here."

The audience was discussing enthusiastically who the newcomer was, and Sang Ning and the others followed Luo Tianya's gaze.

Then they saw a person emerge from the woods.

A woman who was over two meters tall, like an iron tower, with pointed ears like those of an elf from Sang Ning's original world, walked out. She was wearing a silver-white outfit, had a great figure, and two straight and long legs, perfectly demonstrating what it means to have legs that start below the chest.

"Hello, I am contestant number 73, Fimmonloya. I, I..."

She paused, a blush rising on her fair face, and said somewhat shyly, "Could I borrow a light from you?"
