Chapter 4: I picked up someone on the live broadcast
Yu Zhile pondered the words "second life" and his uneasy heart settled down.
When I looked up, I unexpectedly found that the popularity of the live broadcast room reservations exceeded four digits.
"The platform will strongly support new anchors, so please do your best!" Xiaoyun seemed to understand her surprise and explained.
Yu Zhile understood and was calculating in his mind the appropriate time for the first live broadcast.
In her memory, Grandpa Yu would regularly take the younger generations of the family to maintain and repair the ancestral house, so the ancestral house was not overgrown with weeds. It was basically a place where one could move in and live in it, and settle down today.
"Xiao Yun, help me post the live broadcast announcement and start the first live broadcast tomorrow afternoon." Yu Zhile used the system to check the nearest suitable time to go to the beach.
As soon as she finished speaking, the live broadcast time was posted on the homepage.
"Okay host, the platform has pushed your live broadcast announcement to the homepage. I wish you a smooth first live broadcast. Xiaoyun is always at your service."
Yu Zhile suddenly felt his wrist getting hot, and when he looked down he saw a new logo for a cloud live streaming platform.
Through Xiaoyun's introduction, she learned that she could start the live broadcast at any time through the logo and choose the audience perspective.
At this point, the novice tutorial has been completed. Yu Zhile closed the platform page and continued to pack up.
After a while, Yu Zhile heard a gentle knock on the door. If the door had not been shaking slightly, she would have even suspected that she was hallucinating.
The door opened and Yu Yang and Yu Qi stood there in a daze, both brothers looking hesitant.
"Sister Le, my parents went to clean the ancestral house, and asked my brother and me to help you move things." Yu Qi quickly forced a smile.
He knew everything and was now filled with shame, afraid to see an expression of disgust on Yu Zhile's face.
"Come in." Yu Zhile smiled.
The two brothers, who were treated in a friendly manner, stood there in a daze. It was not until Yue spoke behind them that they started to walk inside.
"Sister Le, Xiao Yue, my dad..." Yu Yang hesitated to speak.
Yu Zhile and Yu Yue both understood clearly, and waved their hands at the same time, and comforted at the same time: "Don't think too much."
The two brothers instantly put aside the messy thoughts in their minds, and worked full of energy, carrying the small luggage over and over again, tirelessly.
When Yu Haizong and his wife knew what Yu Zhile and his sister were thinking, the wrinkles between their brows faded a little.
Afterwards, Yu Haizong borrowed a ox cart and made several trips, and the three rooms became empty. The last trip carried the unconscious Yu Wanqin.
This is the first time Yu Zhile has seen Yu Wanqin since he traveled through time.
Yu Wanqin had fair skin and two thin willow-shaped eyebrows. At this moment, her eyes were closed and her brows were slightly frowned, as if she was having a nightmare and seemed to be about to wake up in the next second.
She is a little thinner than she remembered, and needs to go to the town hospital for regular checkups. She currently relies on glucose injections to maintain basic life needs.
The Yu family’s ancestral home is located in the west, close to the mountains and the sea, and is surrounded by the village’s cowshed.
The ox cart swayed as it passed through the village's farmland, once again attracting the villagers' attention. Some people were still whispering about the Yu family's farce of splitting up the family.
After putting all the furniture in place, Yu Zhile took the time to walk around the house and take a look at the surrounding environment.
There are only four rooms in the courtyard, which is not many but enough. The thresholds have been removed. The advantage of this place is that the front and back yards are large.
The front yard is nearly one mu in size, with seven or eight kinds of fruit trees planted in it, the flowers blooming in riotous glory, and there are two large vats for growing lotus roots in the corners of the wall.
The backyard is a private plot of land, one quarter of which is used to raise chickens and ducks, and the rest is a small vegetable garden. Yu Haizong and his wife have already hoed the land and sowed vegetable seeds.
What makes Yu Zhile most satisfied is that the backyard leads directly to the beach and there are few people around. Villagers are used to going to the beach in the east and like to go up the mountain from another road.
There was a lack of any seasoning at home, so for the first two meals after moving into the new house, Yu Zhile only cooked a pot of mixed grain porridge.
Yu Yue and Yu Chi were drinking happily with the pickles that Yang Suyun brought.
By the next afternoon, the tide had receded.
Yu Zhile asked Yu Yue to look after Yu Chi at home, and she carried the bamboo basket on her back and walked towards the beach.
The logo on his wrist felt slightly hot, and Yu Zhile knew that the live broadcast had begun, so he switched to a panoramic view.
"Hello everyone, I am the anchor Lele, and the live broadcast content I brought to you is about catching seafood."
“Going fishing is a process where people living by the sea go to the beach to fish or collect seafood after the tide goes out[1]. During this process, we can see different kinds of seafood, which I will introduce to you one by one.”
After all, he is a blogger about sea-hunting. Yu Zhile was not afraid at all when listening to Xiaoyun's popularity report and followed his own pace.
The oceans of this era were not too polluted. Looking around, you first saw clear and transparent sea water, then green, then blue, extending all the way to the horizon.
The salty sea breeze blowing in his face made Yu Zhile regain some of the feeling he had when shooting videos before, and he continued to walk towards the beach.
The screen was full of comments floating in front of her, and she could only see a few of them clearly.
[It turns out that the sea water is really blue, so beautiful. 】
[Support! I hope the host can activate the synaesthesia function soon. I want to know the taste of the sea and seafood! ]
As he approached the coastline, Yu Zhile switched his perspective to first-person.
She has been a beach-hunting blogger for several years and has developed a keen eye, able to see the splashes of water between the rocks from afar.
"After the tide goes out, seafood will lie on the sand to avoid humans and seabirds, but they will leave certain traces on the beach, which can be seen if you observe carefully." Yu Zhile explained to the audience as he tread water towards the reef.
After taking a few steps, she bent down and dug in the sand twice, caught a light brown snail, and squeezed out beautiful water splashes before the snail meat shrank back.
"This is a cat's eye snail. Its bulge is more obvious. It can be blanched or steamed. Be sure to remove the bitter gall when eating it."
It took Yu Zhile several minutes to walk a distance of just a few meters. He bent down to pick up a cat's eye snail after every few steps. He picked up seven or eight along the way.
Closer to the reef, the splashes were more intense, reaching nearly half a meter high.
Tiger prawns! Yu Zhile saw the colorful shrimp tails and knew by eye that each one was as long as a palm, and his joy was beyond words.
She quickly grabbed a shrimp and stretched herself to show it: "Look, this is a tiger prawn. We also call it a grass shrimp here. Its most obvious features are the horizontal stripes on its body and the colorful tail."
[Beautiful! I really want to collect it! ]
[I think I've seen it before, how do I eat it? ]
Yu Zhile straightened up, just in time to see a comment in dazzling pink font passing by.
[Hello, host, can adults with long arms eat it? How to eat it? ]
"How long are adult arms?" Although she already knew that the audience came from different planets, she still couldn't help but be surprised. "If it is confirmed to be the same kind of shrimp, it is edible. The easiest way is to blanch it in water. Of course, you can also dry-fry it, stir-fry it with sauce, or grill it with charcoal."
As soon as she finished speaking, the entire live broadcast screen was occupied by countless small clouds, and it took a full three minutes to return to normal.
Xiaoyun's voice then rang out: "Congratulations to the host for receiving the most expensive gift on the cloud live broadcast platform - ten seas of clouds - from user xxxx during his first live broadcast."
"Thank you xxxx." Yu Zhile thanked him as usual, "If nothing unexpected happens, I will do three to five live broadcasts a week. If you have any related questions, you can ask me in the barrage."
After saying that, she walked along the coastline and harvested a few more cat's eye snails and two short-legged octopuses.
Because of xxxx's gift, her live broadcast room was on the platform's homepage for more than half an hour, and its popularity was close to 50,000.
A large portion of the audience lives on a planet without an ocean, posing a screen-filling question.
Yu Zhile was dazzled and could only ask Xiaoyun to answer a few questions randomly picked. Most of his energy was still focused on finding seafood.
The waves washed the shallows, and a jellyfish head was brought to Yu Zhile swayingly.
The stinging tentacles of the jellyfish had been blown away by the waves, and Yu Zhile confidently picked up the jellyfish and introduced it to the audience.
"This is a jellyfish, a relatively dangerous creature. If you are stung by its tentacles, your hand will become red and swollen. In more serious cases, your skin will ulcerate. Fresh jellyfish is toxin-containing and is not recommended for direct consumption."
The jellyfish head weighed several kilograms and filled the small bamboo basket.
Yu Zhile looked at the sky, felt the waves at his feet getting stronger, knew the tide was about to rise, and prepared to say goodbye to the audience.
"Friends, the tide is coming in. Tomorrow we will—"
She was halfway through her words when her attention was drawn to a sentence on the barrage - What is that brown thing in the sea?
Before going off the air, she deliberately switched to a panoramic view, looked up, and saw brown cloth rising and falling a few meters away from her.
Yu Zhile quickly threw away the bamboo basket, ran over there, and found a thin boy.
She pulled the man out of the water without much effort and used her fingers to check his breath, which was weak.
She patted the boy's shoulders first, and since he was indeed unconscious, she raised her hand to lift his chin, intending to open his airway.
Unexpectedly, when Yu Zhile's hand touched the other person's forehead, the other person suddenly opened his eyes with a sharp look.
The boy's face was as pale as paper, his wet hair stuck to his forehead, and the hostility in his eyes was particularly inconsistent with his black and bright almond-shaped eyes.
"What are you going to do?" The boy frowned and shrank back to avoid Yu Zhile's hand.
Yu Zhile ignored his defensiveness and explained, "Save you."
The boy pursed his lips, said nothing, got up, and limped away.
His patched clothes clung to his body, and he was so thin that his shoulder blades protruded.
Watching his back gradually moving away, Yu Zhile dug out his identity from his memory - Jiang Shangqing, a child of the five black categories who lived in the cowshed.
She only stood there for a while, then quickly ran to pick up her bamboo basket.
The high tide is no joke. Yu Zhile quickly left the beach, not knowing that the barrage of comments had exploded.
【？ ？ ？】
[Which planet is the anchor on? Can you find a beautiful boy while going to the beach? I want to go. ]
The xxxx wearing a golden brand name asked a rather scary question: Hello, host, can I eat it? How do I eat it?
Seeing that Yu Zhile didn't answer, xxxx waved his hand and smashed ten more seas of clouds.
"Host, congratulations! The popularity of your first live broadcast has exceeded 100,000! You are really amazing!"
"The robot butler equipped by the system will be sent to the host's planet immediately. Please check it carefully!"
Xiaoyun said excitedly.
Yu Zhile then remembered that the live broadcast was not turned off. When he opened the platform, he saw the words "xxxx" hanging at the top of the screen and was dumbfounded.
She said politely: "What we just saved was a person who fell into the water, not food."
【oh. 】
xxxx replied coldly and smashed ten more seas of clouds.
Yu Zhile was stunned. Rich people are just willful.
"Okay, friends, today's live broadcast ends here. Welcome to watch it next time." She said the closing remarks and ended the live broadcast.
On the screen, Xiao Yun smiled gently: "Host, the system binding process has caused some impact on your body. Based on your current needs, the system has decided to give you ten kilograms of rice as compensation."
The next second, a heavy cloth bag fell into Yu Zhile's hands, exuding a faint rice fragrance.
Yu Zhile went home from the backyard carrying a bag of rice and a bamboo basket. He did not see Yu Yue and Yu Chi, so he walked all the way to the front yard before he ran into the two people who pushed the door open.
Yu Yue put some fresh vegetables on his knees, and the bamboo basket hanging around Yu Chi's neck made a ping-pong sound when he walked.
"Xiao Yue and Xiao Bao are both great!" Yu Zhile praised, patted the bamboo basket, and said with a smile, "Sister also had a great harvest today. We had seafood porridge and cold jellyfish."
