Chu Yinlong coughed lightly, turned around and said to the director team: "For the second dish, we want Huaishan roast chicken."
At this moment, he had his back to Jiang Dao and finally couldn't suppress the smile that appeared on the corner of his mouth.
The director was silent for a moment, then sighed, "Let's reshoot the question and answer segment between you two just now."
Although it is a reality show and focuses more on authenticity, some things still cannot be kept. Even if the guest speaker does not intend to create a certain effect, it may not be approved when it is submitted for review.
Thinking of this, the director emphasized to Jiang Dao: "Remember to answer the name of the dish later. The full name is 'Huaishan Roast Chicken'. Don't be too brief."
Jiang Dao was actually quite sensitive to the atmosphere. When he saw everyone's faces looked strange just now, he vaguely felt that there was something wrong with him. When he heard the director's emphasis, he instantly understood where the problem lay and couldn't help laughing out loud.
After re-recording the Q&A session with Chu Yinlong, the Red Team received a token with "Huaishan Roast Chicken" written on it, and won the second delicacy for lunch today.
During the intermission, Yi Bailu laughed and came to Chu Yinlong to gloat over his misfortune: "If we win all the dishes, Brother Yao and Weiwei will be miserable. They can only eat pickled mustard tubers and salted duck eggs for lunch, hehe..."
Seeing the cameraman nearby capturing the scene, Chu Yinlong followed her meaning and casually replied, "There's nothing we can do. We're too strong."
Yi Bailu nodded: "Yes, fortunately you are here, Brother Long."
Chu Yinlong looked at Jiang Dao with a smile: "Xiaodao is also very strong, what a surprise."
After a pause, he asked, "What other variety shows has Xiaodao recorded? Or, what works do you have?"
Jiang Dao was originally smelling the aroma of food wafting in the hall, wondering when he could eat. When he was suddenly asked, there was a moment of confusion on his face.
After being confused for a while, he thought about it carefully. When he read the book, although the villain Jiang Dao in the book was very interesting, there was almost no description about his background and works. The villain Jiang Dao, when he first appeared, competed with Zhou Wei for the role, then fawned over Tang Yao in the variety show, and later made trouble in the web drama crew...
The original book gave too little information, so Jiang Dao couldn't really say what works he had created.
Fortunately, even if he himself doesn't pay attention to it, there are still people who do.
Tang Yao came up and interrupted with a smile: "Xiaodao and Weiwei came from the same talent show. Although neither of them made it into a group, they were lucky enough to be remembered by the audience."
After saying that, he looked at Jiang Dao: "You and Weiwei are from the same company. Can you really bear to see him only have pickled mustard and salted duck eggs for lunch? Can you water down the third game?"
Jiangdao: ...
"You have already had two dishes." Tang Yao continued, "Can you give the third one to us?"
Without waiting for Jiang Dao to answer, he added, "You gave Weiwei yogurt this morning. I saw that you took good care of him. Give us the dishes later."
"No." Jiang Dao refused mercilessly.
No one can make him give up the food that is about to be in his hands.
Even if Zhou Wei is the protagonist of this book, it won’t work.
Tang Yao smiled helplessly, turned his head and shouted to Zhou Wei: "Weiwei, are you sure Xiaodao is my fan? You asked me to beg for mercy, but I don't think it will work."
On the opposite side, Zhou Wei frowned and looked at Jiang Dao in confusion.
Seeing Zhou Wei's eyes, Jiang Dao suddenly remembered.
Yes, it seems that it was mentioned once in the novel, saying that "Jiang Dao looked at Tang Yao with something wrong" and he always "circled around Tang Yao" when recording a variety show.
However, the book did not emphasize these points repeatedly later, so he did not have a deep impression of them.
In this way, it makes sense why Jiang Dao, the villain in the novel, has always been targeting Zhou Wei.
Seeing the cameramen also come to join in the fun, Tang Yao smiled and said to the camera: "Don't look at Weiwei's small size, she is quite cunning. She didn't want to beg for mercy herself, so she said Xiaodao was my fan and tricked me into begging for mercy."
Zhou Wei was slapped in the face by Jiang Dao and questioned by Tang Yao, so she was naturally eager to prove herself: "No! When we participated in the talent show together, he said he was your fan and even showed us the photos he had collected on his phone. They were all of you!"
Hearing this, Jiang Dao himself was shocked.
His cell phone photo album is full of Tang Yao?
He had just traveled through time and space for two days, and hadn't had time to sort out the original owner's photo album... Who knows, maybe what Zhou Wei said was right.
"Are you really a fan of Brother Yao?" Yi Bailu looked at Jiang Dao in surprise, "I can't tell at all."
"You're too calm as a fan, aren't you?" Lu Jun also came to join in the fun, "You're not excited at all to be recording a variety show with your idol? You were the first one to eliminate him in the second round!"
Jiangdao: ...
He just subconsciously dealt with the one who posed the greatest threat first.
"What are you thinking?" Even Chu Yinlong couldn't help but tease Jiang Dao, "Are you really not going to give your idol a break?"
"I," Jiang Dao was speechless, and finally decided to tell the truth in some aspects, "I think nothing is more important than eating. If it's another reward, I'll give it up. But food, no."
Upon hearing this, Tang Yao was full of admiration and gave Jiang Dao a thumbs up.
Lu Yun laughed loudly and said to the camera: "See? Xiaodao is aware of the fact that he came to record us, the people who eat food! When you edit it, just put three big words on Xiaodao's head - Eat! Food! People!"
Jiangdao: ...
After some fighting and playing, the ten-minute break is over.
After the guests put on their makeup, they were taken back to the outdoor challenge area, where they found that the layout had been completely changed.
In the field, the two stakes were replaced by two upright rings more than one person tall. The rings are connected by four horizontal bars, and rotating shafts are installed on both sides. As the ring starts to rotate, the four horizontal bars will sweep downwards in turn, about ten centimeters above the ground.
"I see, the footwork." Chu Yinlong smiled helplessly, "Isn't this the same as skipping rope?"
"The principle is actually similar." Tang Yao agreed, "But I think that given the director's habits, he wouldn't design such a simple project."
Sure enough, I heard the voice-over say:
"The third round of challenge, footwork."
"Each group of three guests will enter the rotating mechanism at the same time to take the challenge. During the challenge, the legs of each guest and another guest will be tied together. The mechanism will rotate faster and faster over time. Once a guest touches the mechanism, the challenge is considered a failure. The team that persists the longest wins and can get the last dish. The loser..."
"Needless to say, the losing team," Lu Jun interrupted the director, "The losing team gets to eat salted duck eggs!"
Everyone responded with laughter.
This challenge actually tests teamwork. Adding one more person to the two-person three-legged race turns it into a three-person four-legged race, and they also have to cross the horizontal bar in coordination according to the speed of the mechanism's rotation. If you are not careful, you may hit the pole and fail the challenge.
"Bai Lu, stand in the middle." Chu Yinlong said after receiving the leg-binding rope from the staff, "Xiao Dao is about the same height as me, stand on both sides, so that we can have a better balance."
"Okay." Yi Bailu agreed happily and said with a smile, "Then I will be surrounded by two handsome guys, a winner in life!"
Jiang Dao didn't care about it. He took a leg wrap from Chu Yinlong and bent over to tie his ankles together with Yi Bailu's.
Unexpectedly, halfway through tying them, he suddenly heard Chu Yinlong ask, "Xiaodao, where did you learn this way of tying them?"
Jiang Dao turned his head and saw Chu Yinlong with a strange expression on his face, looking at him with a half-smile.
After a moment of silence, Jiang Dao asked, "Is it not okay to tie it like this?"
Chu Yinlong chuckled, "It's too strong. It won't work. It's better to use a single ring to leave some room for rotation. Otherwise, if the coordination is not good, the two people will fall in different directions. If you use the way you tie it, it will hurt the joints."
That's indeed the case. Jiang Dao nodded, untied the rope, and tied it again following Chu Yinlong's method.
Chu Yinlong was looking at Jiang Dao from the side with a faint smile in his eyes.
After tying the legs, Yi Bailu suggested trying walking a few steps first. In order to maintain balance while walking, she stretched out her arms and wrapped them around Jiang Dao and Chu Yinlong's waists respectively.
Someone suddenly touched his waist, and Jiang Dao couldn't help but frown.
This feeling...he didn't like it.
But that doesn't make sense.
During the first round of challenges, he and Chu Yinlong were so close to each other that he even hugged Chu Yinlong. He did not feel any discomfort in his heart, but rather felt a little greedy.
Why was it that Yi Bailu just touched his waist and he kept having the urge to kick her away?
"Get ready, go!" Yi Bailu ordered and began to try to move.
Jiang Dao came back to his senses, but failed to keep up with the pace and stumbled.
Chu Yinlong reached out and pulled Jiang Dao to help him stabilize his balance.
"What's going on? This bit of cooperation..." He said halfway, then suddenly changed the subject, "Forget it, come on, you also hold Bai Lu's shoulders, so it's more stable."
Although Jiang Dao didn't want to touch Yi Bailu, he could overcome this discomfort in order to win the challenge and taste the delicious food. He didn't act pretentiously and put his hand on Yi Bailu's shoulder. Then, Chu Yinlong's arm overlapped with his arm and fell on Yi Bailu's other shoulder.
Through two thin layers of fabric, body temperature was slowly transferred between the overlapping limbs, and the muscles of Chu Yinlong's arms gently pressed Jiang Dao's arms.
This time, Jiang Dao didn't find the touch unpleasant. It even seemed to alleviate the uncomfortable feeling of being touched on his waist.
After the three of them tried a few steps while shouting the rhythm and gradually grasped the key to cooperation, the director team announced the start of the challenge, and the temporarily leading red team went on stage first.
Jiang Dao and the other two walked side by side into the rotating mechanism and stood there. The mechanism opened quickly.
At first, the mechanism didn't rotate very fast. After they crossed three bars safely, they discovered a problem they hadn't considered:
"No, we can't move forward." Jiang Dao frowned and said, "Just lift your foot to let the pole pass, don't take a step. Otherwise, if you move too far forward, you won't be able to cross it."
"I discovered it too!" Yi Bailu shouted, "Wouldn't it be better to just jump on the spot?"
Chu Yinlong hurriedly stopped her: "No, you can't jump. If you jump..."
However, before he could finish his words, the pole had already turned to their feet and was within reach.
"Jump!" Without time to discuss, Yi Bailu shouted and tried to jump with both feet.
Jiang Dao and Chu Yinlong were not ready, and could only jump quickly. However, since each person could not control the height and leg swing angle accurately, their tied feet became a burden. Although they successfully crossed the horizontal bar, all three of them stumbled when they landed.
Yi Bailu, who was standing in the middle, was the worst off. None of his feet could move freely. He immediately lost his balance and was dragged down by the clothes of the two people around him. He fell to his knees on the ground.
Jiang Dao and Chu Yinlong reacted very quickly and almost immediately pulled Yi Bailu up, preparing for the next horizontal bar.
Unfortunately, it's too late.
Before the three of them could get their rhythm back, the rotating mechanism suddenly accelerated, the horizontal bar arrived ahead of time, hit their ankles and stopped.
