In the evening, the program team left messages to each guest on their mobile phones and randomly distributed task cards for the next day.
At least one guest in each group must complete the task to be eligible for a shower.
The young and handsome Wu Fan got the task of bathing the cow, while the wealthy Lin siblings were tasked with picking up a basket of dry cow dung.
Wanwan Lingdong needs to repair the only old tractor in the village.
And Liang Kun was asked to catch a pound of fish.
The task card Gu An drew was to capture a nest of voles alive.
[Family, I can’t wait for tomorrow to come, hahahaha.]
Honestly, I think the hardest task is definitely repairing the tractor. After all, there's plenty of cow dung.
[The guy above is too naive, it seems he has never fished before.]
[The Sky Army passed by. I haven't spoken for half a year, and all I could hear were tears.]
Am I the only one who thinks catching a vole is difficult? Just thinking about it makes my scalp tingle. Will a bite from one turn me into a zombie?
[A rural kid born in the 1980s said it was no big deal. Just peel, wash, chop the onions, ginger, garlic, dried chilies, and rice wine, and stir-fry them together. It's a rare delicacy!]
[You people born in the 80s all eat mice?! ! !]
I just like your naiveté. Voles are different from mice. There are also frogs, grasshoppers, cicada monkeys, dragonflies, geckos, and more. However, some of these are now protected, so please don't try to catch them.
The post-80s generation is full of amazing people! Of course, we post-90s generation aren't bad either. We eat everything except scavengers.
The next morning, Gu An first filled the water tank at his aunt's house with water, and then went to the vegetable garden to pick vegetables for lunch.
After breakfast, Si Hong saw that it was not yet 8 o'clock, so she accompanied him to the fields to look for field mice.
"Lao Si, Lao Si, I know how to catch voles. You need to bring a lighter and a bucket." When Ah Cheng heard that they had to catch voles, he was so excited that he picked up the bucket and rushed forward, completely forgetting that he had to go to school soon.
"Acheng, you still need to study and stop running around."
"Grandma, I'm going with Lao Si."
[Even if the king of heaven comes, he has a legitimate reason.]
[I'm doing things for the teacher, so it's not an exaggeration to say I'm an imperial envoy, hahahaha.]
Considering that he needed to catch the field mouse alive, Gu An found a bamboo basket for fish at home. It had a lid so that the field mouse would not run away.
The aunt handed him a pair of tongs to use to pick up small things to prevent them from being bitten.
The complete equipment gave Gu An a great boost of confidence.
"Old Si, do you know how to find field mice?"
"I don't know, do you understand?"
"I know. The older brother in the village took us to catch them. Come with me, Lao Si." Ah Cheng jumped into a rice field beside a stream and looked for vole holes on the ridge.
He pointed to a spot and shouted excitedly, "There's a vole in this hole."
"How do you know?" Gu An couldn't see any difference.
"The entrance to this cave is very smooth, and look, there are some newly dug mud lumps next to it, Mr. Gu."
Si Hong frowned. When she was a child, she was an expert at robbing bird nests from rooftops. Rats were too ugly and disgusting to look at.
"How are you going to catch it?"
Gu An stared at the lighter and the bucket, his expression of understanding revealed, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
"There's no hay here, and it's close to the creek. We'll use water."
"Laosi, pour water into this largest hole, and I'll help you see which holes are leaking water. Then we'll block the rest of the holes, leaving only the water inlets. The voles won't be able to handle it and will crawl out of their holes."
"Wow, I didn't expect Ah Cheng to be so smart at such a young age." Si Hong reached out and rubbed his hair and said with a smile.
"Hey hey hey~"
"Ah Cheng, are you cold digging in the mud with your hands?"
"It's not cold." The little guy is full of energy and doesn't feel his hands are cold even when digging mud in the field with his bare hands in the middle of winter.
Gu An drew water and poured it into one of the holes. After pouring a bucket of water in, the two men observed that there were five holes with water coming out, two of which led to the inside of the stream.
They say a cunning rabbit has three burrows, and field mice are no bad choice.
Ah Cheng dug the soil and he was responsible for blocking the holes until every hole was sealed tightly and no water leaked out.
Gu An poured in three buckets of water in succession, and the stream of water overflowed the entire cave entrance and vibrated slightly.
Ah Cheng lowered his head and stared, "Lao Si, the field mice are about to come out."
Before Gu An could get the fire tongs ready, a small head popped out of the water and rushed out of the cave.
"Ah! Don't come over here!"
When Si Hong saw the mouse running towards her, she screamed and turned around and ran away with a panicked look in her eyes.
The speed is comparable to that of a 100-meter sprinter.
"Hey? Sister——"
Gu An was stunned. In the blink of an eye, Si Hong's figure completely disappeared from his sight.
Leaving the cameraman disheveled in the wind.
[Laughing and crying! An Bao looked up, and saw that Shushu was gone, and so was her sister!]
[If I'm not mistaken, the principal just started sprinting? ]
[It was clearly a flash, but this speed was way ahead of the national athletes.]
[No, being a principal is so competitive these days? There's no future for a physical education teacher!]
Doesn't the PE teacher take eight days off every week due to illness?
[Give me a mad dog, and even God Su will bow down to me.]
Gu An didn't have time to think about it. He held the fire tongs in his hand and lowered his head to focus on the hole, waiting for the vole to emerge.
"Lao Si."
"Shh!"
The second one pops up!
The open tongs placed at the entrance of the cave were suddenly tightened, successfully catching a fish and throwing it into the bamboo basket.
"I caught it, I caught it." Ah Cheng clapped his hands excitedly.
In the end, three were caught in this nest.
Gu An wasn't sure if he had completed his mission, so to be on the safe side he decided to catch another one.
"Acheng, you should go to class."
"Laosi, can you do it without me finding the vole holes for you?"
Gu An glanced at him sideways, this kid was clearly just playing around.
He waved his hand and said, "Teacher, I have learned it."
"Oh, goodbye, Lao Si." Ah Cheng ran away reluctantly.
"Go quickly, don't keep the teacher waiting."
...
Wang Gang, a spirited twenty-year-old young man, followed an older brother in town after graduating from junior high school.
Apart from collecting protection fees in the disco, he likes to play billiards and sing karaoke. Occasionally, he accompanies his elder brother to a foot massage parlor, where he can get a free massage and live a very comfortable life.
"Brother Gang, did you see the live variety show that the crew came to the village to do? Damn, those beauties in it are so hot! One of them even moved in with you. How about we go back to the village and take a look?"
"You didn't lie to me?" The words of his neighbor from the same village shocked him.
"Watch it for yourself." Wang Taotao turned on Douyin Live, and the figures of Ling Dong and Ji Meir repairing a tractor in the village appeared on the screen.
"She's really pretty. This is that actress named Mei'er."
"Let's go, ask the boss for leave and go back to the village." Wang Gang slurped his saliva, patted the ghost fire motorcycle under him and shouted.
Two energetic young men rode their Ghost Fire motorcycles in a hurry from the town back to the village. Halfway through the ride, Wang Taotao remembered that he had not refueled.
"Brother Gang, I forgot to refuel!"
"Fuck me too."
The two men cursed and returned to the town gas station, reluctantly filling up a tank of 92.
"Brother Gang, if we don't make some money on this trip back to the village, we'll lose all the money for gas!"
"You needn't tell me, kid!"
"Don't you have to pay for food and lodging at my house?"
"It's okay if you don't give me money—" Wang Taotao licked her lips.
"Hahahaha... let's go!" Wang Gang felt a burning sensation in his heart.
