"What?" Chu Yinlong immediately noticed the strange atmosphere, "What did Xiaodao do?"
"Well, it's nothing." Mu Zhixing stopped Anzhe who was about to speak and said with a smile, "Let's go to that place together and see if the gander can be beaten."
Anzhe and the cameraman couldn't help laughing.
So, the two teams joined together and marched towards the mountain courtyard where Cheng Zhiyi had just returned in defeat.
Seeing the crew coming back, the old man guarding the gate was obviously relieved, and his face was full of relief: "I thought you guys weren't coming. If you didn't come, I wouldn't have any money..."
The old man had a wrinkled face, but was very funny: "If you delay me from making money, I'll just sell my Dabai to you and stew it!"
Cheng Zhiyi was speechless: "Uncle, you have said this several times, but you don't seem to be willing to do it."
The old man laughed and asked the cameraman: "Are you ready? I'm going to open the goose shed!"
Apparently, he just loves to see young people being chased by geese.
The two cameramen in the team had serious expressions on their faces and pointed their cameras at the goose shed... and Jiangdao respectively.
An Zhe pulled Cheng Zhiyi back a few steps and let Jiang Dao move to the front.
"Little kid, aren't you afraid?" the old man asked with a smile.
"Yeah, it's okay." Jiang Dao said calmly, "Open the door."
"Okay!" The old man bared his teeth, walked forward and pulled open the bolt of the goose shed.
The next moment, a majestic white goose rushed out from the door, stretched out its neck and bit Jiang Dao -
However, before anyone could utter a cry of surprise, the goose's neck twisted, its feet slipped, and it fell to the ground with a thud. It clucked in panic, and finally struggled to get up, turned 180 degrees, and crashed back into the goose shed, closing the door with its wings.
Everyone: ...
Little old man:? ? ?
Jiang Dao walked forward expressionlessly, opened the door, stepped into the shed, and took two goose eggs from the nest in front of a shed of shivering geese.
"We still need two, right?" Coming out of the goose shed, he handed the goose eggs to Chu Yinlong and asked casually, "Do you want a few more for us to eat?"
Before Chu Yinlong could answer, he heard a slight sound coming from the door of the goose shed.
Jiang Dao turned around and saw the big gander using his webbed feet to dig out the two remaining goose eggs in the nest from the shed, then suddenly retreated back into the goose shed, refusing to show up again.
The eyes of everyone present slowly moved from the two goose eggs to Jiang Dao.
Jiangdao: ...
…
Although the process was a bit feudal and superstitious, fortunately the mission was completed successfully.
Anzhe returned to Taoyuanju with two legendary goose eggs, and the rest of the people went to meet up with Qi Peng and took a boat to the town on the other side of the lake to exchange food.
Although separated by only a lake, the town is obviously much more lively than the island.
Looking around, you can see large areas of two- or three-story brick buildings. There are also many shops and stalls facing the street downstairs, and the goods are quite diverse.
The storefront rented by the program crew was on a street near the lake. It wasn't large, but was clean and brightly decorated. There were a few counters scattered against the wall with a few goods on them - it was obviously not designed to make money.
"Here we go, twenty goose eggs, let's calculate the price." Qi Peng shouted to the staff as soon as he entered the room, "We have a new guest today, so why don't you give us a discount?"
"Discount!" The staff member dressed as the store owner said, "We're buying goose eggs at 20% off today. Twenty eggs will be charged at 80 yuan."
Qi Peng was silent for a moment, then turned around and shouted, "Xiao Chu, come here! Beat him up!"
The staff member immediately got scared: "No, no, no, Brother Long, no, I'm just kidding!"
After exchanging twenty goose eggs for one hundred yuan, everyone started to plan how to choose ingredients in the store.
Rice is a must to buy. The cheapest five-kilogram bag in the store costs 65 yuan, and it cannot be weighed in bulk. Buying a bag of rice will take up most of my income.
I spent the remaining thirty-five dollars carefully and bought a few cucumbers, a handful of rapeseed, some fresh mushrooms, some fresh wood ears, a bag of vacuum-packed bamboo shoots, and a head of purple cabbage. Finally, Qi Peng used all his tricks and, with his bodyguard Chu Yinlong, threatened and cheated to snatch another box of pork tenderloin from the staff.
"No, it's not worth buying vegetables. They charge too much. Let's find a way to get a fish from the lake tomorrow, and then go to the vegetable garden." Qi Peng held the spoils and shook his head, "We worked hard for a whole morning, and this is enough for one meal, plus the things you brought."
After saying that, he looked at Jiang Dao with a smile: "How is it? Is it the ideal life you imagined?"
Jiang Dao raised an eyebrow.
how? Did Chu Yinlong tell Qi Peng what he said?
"This experience doesn't count." Mu Zhixing smiled and shook his head. "The goose eggs were collected by the program crew after they contacted the villagers. If you want to experience real rural life, you have to raise geese yourself."
"That being said, the vegetables sold in the village are not that expensive. The prices quoted by the program group are based on supermarket prices." Chu Yinlong said something fair, "Besides, they negotiated with the villagers to give seven yuan for an egg, but it's outrageous that we only gave them five yuan after it was handed over to us."
At this time, Cheng Zhiyi, who was following behind, suddenly interrupted: "If Xiaodao really lets raise geese on his own, the geese may be so scared that they won't even lay eggs... No, they may not even grow up, they will all be scared to death."
Thinking of the magical scene that Jiang Dao had just created, everyone couldn't help laughing out loud.
In fact, Jiangdao himself was also quite speechless.
He didn't have this physique before. How come after traveling through time, even small animals dared not approach him?
If he also had this ability in the world outside the book, wouldn't he be more at ease facing the overwhelming mutated beasts? He wouldn't have died so tragically in the final defense battle...
The group returned to the dock chatting and laughing. Qi Peng and Chu Yinlong helped Mu Zhixing board the boat first, while Jiang Dao and Cheng Zhiyi followed behind carrying the food.
Perhaps Qi Peng's skill in stopping the boat was not good enough, or perhaps the force exerted by everyone when they got on the boat pushed it too far away from the dock. When it was finally Cheng Zhiyi's turn, he had some difficulty stepping onto the boat, his body swayed, and he almost fell.
Jiang Dao immediately turned around and supported the man. Qi Peng was so scared that he quickly reached out to grab Cheng Zhiyi's arm.
However, as luck would have it, he failed to grab Cheng Zhiyi's arm, but instead grabbed the bamboo basket in Cheng Zhiyi's hand.
The bamboo basket overturned, and the food inside scattered, most of it falling into the water.
The next second, Jiang Dao subconsciously tore off his life jacket and dived into the lake.
"Why!!!"
"Island?!"
Next to them, on the crew's boat, the assistant director was going crazy: "Help! Quick, quick, quick——"
However, before the lifeguard could get close to the guests' boat, Jiang Dao suddenly popped his head out of the water and threw the purple cabbage and two cucumbers back into the boat.
Immediately he dived into the water again, somersaulted and disappeared again.
Since this lake was not formed naturally, but was the result of flooding upstream after a dam was built downstream, the lakeshore is not a slowly sinking slope. Just like the location of this pier, the stone wall is vertical and the water is three meters deep.
Fortunately, the lake water is clear, the sun is shining brightly on the surface, and the visibility underwater is acceptable.
Jiang Dao dived to the bottom of the water in one breath and barely scooped up a few scattered rapeseed and wood ears. He couldn't hold them all in his hands, so he had to return again.
"Jiangdao! Get on board!"
As soon as he emerged, Jiang Dao heard Chu Yinlong's angry shout: "What are you doing?!"
The lifeguards arrived and quickly held Jiang Dao, who seemed to be about to dive into the water. "Oh my God! Please, the director is about to have a heart attack because of you!"
Then, without saying a word, he held Jiang Dao's waist and worked together with Chu Yinlong and Qi Peng to carry him back to the boat.
"What are you thinking about? Do you know what responsibility is? You come to the show to do whatever you want? You can swim, you are not afraid of danger, do you know how much the staff has paid to ensure the safety of the show? Do you think the life jacket is just a decoration and you can take it off whenever you want? Do you know how much responsibility the production team will bear for you if something happens to you?!"
Jiang Dao was stunned by Chu Yinlong's scolding. He sat there, wet all over, and stared at the other party in a daze.
Chu Yinlong's face was icy cold: "As an artist, every move you make is a role model for the audience. What is your role model? Do you think you are brave? Let me tell you, this is not called bravery, this is called recklessness! Do you know how deep the water is here? Do you know if there are any water plants below that may entangle you? You dare to jump in without knowing anything? Just for those broken vegetables?!"
"Okay, okay, just hold back..." Qi Peng quickly stepped in between the two of them to smooth things over.
"Am I wrong?" Chu Yinlong glanced at Qi Peng calmly, "We shouldn't support his reckless behavior!"
"Three meters twenty-seven." Jiang Dao lowered his eyelashes and said in a low voice.
"...What?" Chu Yinlong suspected that he had heard it wrong.
"The water is 3.27 meters deep. I noticed the water level when I came here." Jiang Dao spoke a little quickly, but very clearly. "The water is very clear, with a tinge of blue. The surface of the water is calm and peaceful. There are no parasites on the wooden piles of the dock and the dam, so there won't be too much grass underwater. I know better than you whether this area of water is safe."
Chu Yinlong: ...
"The ingredients are earned through hard work, I just don't want to waste them." Jiang Dao said, raising his eyelids and looking at Chu Yinlong with a serious and sincere look, "As for me setting a wrong example, I don't mind cutting out this part... No, it's better to cut out all of it, without leaving a single shot."
"Okay, okay, my pot, my pot." Qi Peng held Chu Yinlong down, "I should have taken the basket first, and then let Xiaoyi get on the boat, so the food wouldn't fall."
"No, no, no, it was my mistake." Cheng Zhiyi quickly apologized, "I'm sorry!"
Chu Yinlong didn't say anything else, but just stared at Jiang Dao for a long time before turning away silently.
Qi Peng picked up the oar and returned to the boat. The boat was silent for a while.
After a long while, Mu Zhixing, who had not spoken a word the entire time, sighed, "Young man, you are a little impulsive. When you were filming a movie, you jumped into an ice hole to save someone, but now you are so logical when you scold others."
"Director Mu, there's no point in bringing up the past." Chu Yinlong said helplessly.
"If we really want to bring up the past, you can't even make it up." Mu Zhixing smiled, "You designed so many high-risk actions and refused to use a stunt double. No wonder the insurance company blacklisted you."
Chu Yinlong: "The stuntman was also born by his mother, so his life is not a life?"
Mu Zhixing said: "You also know that you are risking your life, right? So don't scold Xiaodao, you two are basically the same kind of people, you don't care about your life when you go crazy."
The author has something to say: Jumping into the lake is dangerous, please do not imitate!
Kojima is a professional, the setting is fictional, don't be impulsive in real life
