Chapter 97
I don't know when it started to rain heavily last night. The rain continued to fall until the early morning. It only stopped just before Li Yubai and the others were taken away by the staff dressed as dragons.
The sun peeked halfway through the thick clouds, and the blue sky dotted with stars seemed like an embellishment of the thick clouds that had not yet dispersed.
The cubs carried their own small bamboo baskets and went out. When they walked to the tree outside the small building, a gust of wind blew. Jiaojiao felt a chill on his head and raised his head. Several drops of water fell on his fair and tender face.
"It's raining." Jiaojiao wiped the water off her face with her little hand.
"It's not raining, it's water falling from the trees." Lou Yaoyao turned around and jumped.
Hearing that it was the water on the tree, Jiaojiao looked up at the tree. Sure enough, there were many crumbling dewdrops hanging on the dark green leaves, and many of them fell down with a loud noise when the wind blew.
"Ah!" Jiaojiao, who was soaked to the bone, exclaimed softly, and hurriedly ran out from the shade of the tree with a small bamboo basket on her back and her short legs.
The staff carrying cameras couldn't help but laugh out loud when they saw this scene.
At the Jun family, Jun Che, who got up early in the morning and watched Time and Space Cub on his tablet, saw his younger brother Jiaojiao being drenched by the water from the tree and pursed his lips in dissatisfaction.
Grandpa Jun was very surprised to see his grandson being so lively. He walked over and sat next to Jun Che to see what he was watching. He found that it was the variety show he had watched for a while yesterday.
"Che'er likes watching this variety show?" he asked.
Jun Che nodded: "I like Jiaojiao."
Hearing him say this, Grandpa Jun was very surprised. His grandson rarely explicitly said what or who he liked. "You like this kid?"
"Yeah." Jun Che nodded.
It seems that he really likes it. Thinking about it, Mr. Jun said, "Then if we have time in the future, we can invite this child to our home to play."
Jun Che's eyes lit up, he looked up at his grandfather and agreed repeatedly: "Okay, invite Jiaojiao to come home and play."
Grandpa Jun touched his grandson's head lovingly, feeling happy that he had a child he loved.
His little grandson is too quiet. He doesn't like going out, playing games, or having any good friends around him. He just stays at home quietly all day, either reading or daydreaming. No matter how much he tries to persuade him, he won't go out, which makes him worried all day long.
Now that I have a child I like, maybe I can be more lively in the future!
In the live broadcast, because the river beach was a bit far from the small building, after walking out of the small building, Jiaojiao and the others got on the program crew's car one after another and drove to the river beach.
It took almost another half an hour of driving to reach our destination, the edge of the riverbank.
The kids got off the car, carrying small bamboo baskets on their backs, and walked towards the mission site in high spirits.
The rocky road that had just rained was not easy to walk on. The kids walked very carefully with their short legs, but they couldn't suppress their curiosity and couldn't help looking around.
The rocky beach is covered with sparse flowers and plants and various stones washed by the river. Looking into the distance, at the end of the rocky beach is a deep mountain with dense vegetation. Because it has just rained, white fog is still lingering in the mountain.
On the side is a crystal clear river. When the wind blows, ripples are created on the calm water surface of the riverbank. The smell of grass and trees after the rain seems to overflow the screen and fill the nose.
Netizens in the live broadcast room were amazed and didn’t know how the director found such a quiet and leisurely place.
'A sensible director would usually have sent out the address by now!'
"Didn't you see I was calling you, Director? Send me the address right away!"
'Don't be naive, Xiao Zhu!'
'God damn Xiao Zhu, this is hilarious!'
"Please be clear, this director who can't read my instructions, please send me the address immediately!"
"If you don't send me the address by the count of three, I'll beg you on my knees!"
The director who was always monitoring the live broadcast room grinned with pride after seeing the comments on the barrage.
Want to know the address? No way!
You have to know that in order to find a place with beautiful scenery and few people, he broke two cars and lost eight pairs of shoes during the preparation of the program.
How could it be possible to send out the address so easily!
On the rocky beach, Jiaojiao, carrying a light blue bamboo basket on her back, walked unsteadily while holding Mu Yichen's hand.
Cao Yuhao, who saw this scene from behind, ran up and stretched out his hand a little unhappyly, saying, "I want to hold Jiaojiao's hand too."
Jiaojiao, who was concentrating on walking, was startled by Cao Yuhao who suddenly ran up to her. She blinked blankly, and when she came to her senses, she put her other little hand in Cao Yuhao's hand, and her childish voice sounded soft: "Hold my hand, don't be angry."
Cao Yuhao, who was content to hold Jiaojiao's little hand, raised his little chin and hummed proudly at Mu Yicheng who was standing beside him.
Mu Yicheng was confused by his hum. After thinking for a while and still unable to figure out why Cao Yuhao hummed at him, Mu Yicheng ignored this weird brother Cao Yuhao.
Yes, in Mu Yicheng's heart, his younger brother Cao Yuhao is a very strange person. As the eldest brother among the cubs, Mu Yicheng often can't understand Cao Yuhao's extremely eccentric and unreasonable thinking and behavior, so he labels him as a strange person.
After walking for about ten minutes, Jiaojiao and the others finally arrived at the task collection location marked with a cute anime-style avatar.
"Welcome all the time and space kids to the Treasure Stone Beach. I know that all the kids' parents have been captured by the dragon and put on the Dragon Platform." The director holding the loudspeaker turned around and pointed to the Dragon Platform built in the middle of the river beach.
On the blue and white platform, Lu Yian, Chen Yingke, Shi Yue, Xiao Tiancheng and Li Yubai were trapped in transparent square pillars.
There is a twenty-minute countdown above the pillar. When the countdown is over and the kids have not collected the treasure to save them, the wooden planks under their feet will open and make them fall into the water.
Of course, if they are not confident in completely entrusting their personal safety to Zaizai, they can still struggle.
There is also an LCD TV in front of them. Half of the screen will show the pictures of the kids looking for treasure, and the other half will show various common sense and non-common sense questions. Parents can press the red button in the transparent square column to answer the questions.
For every three questions you answer correctly, you will get a chance to command your child remotely, with a time limit of three minutes.
After hearing this rule, Lu Yian and the others secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The fighting spirit in Xiao Tiancheng's eyes instantly surged, and he was ready to press the buzzer.
Who says he is the least reliable among all the kids?
Li Yubai was very calm. He inexplicably felt a sense of security that Jiaojiao would not let him fall into the water.
Strangely enough, he actually felt a subtle sense of security from this little cub who was only two years old.
This sense of security is different from other feelings of being protected. It is a sense of security that comes from the fact that you will never be abandoned.
Thinking of the scene where the little guy bit the 'evil dragon's' tail, Li Yubai's heart softened and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly for no reason.
On the rocky beach, Jiaojiao saw her father's figure vaguely in the direction the director pointed. Her eyes lit up and she was about to walk into the river with her short legs. The startled director stopped her in time.
Jiaojiao, who was stopped and unable to get close, stood on the rocky beach, hopping and waving in the direction of her father, and her tender little voice was high and loud: "Daddy, Daddy, don't be afraid, Jiaojiao is here, Jiaojiao is looking for Duoduo's treasure, to save you!"
Because of the distance, Li Yubai couldn't hear Jiaojiao's words clearly, but he clearly saw the little figure jumping on the rocky beach.
He couldn't help but lower his eyes to hide the smile that appeared in his eyes.
On the rocky beach, the director was still using a loudspeaker to announce the rules: "If you don't find enough treasure to give to the dragon within the specified time, then your father will be thrown into the water by the dragon."
The director turned around and took out a small box. "There are many treasures hidden on this treasure beach, enough for you to rescue your parents. But this treasure beach belongs to us. If you want to find treasure on this beach, you have to pay eight time and space coins to purchase the qualification."
After Mu Yichen's patient explanation, Jiaojiao, who had barely understood the rules, stepped forward with her short legs and couldn't wait to take out the time and space coins from the pocket in front of her belly.
Jiaojiao, who couldn't count, took out all the time-space coins from her pocket and threw them in. Then, she looked at the director expectantly with her watery eyes: "Uncle Director, is that enough?"
The director, acting like a profiteer, pretended not to notice the two extra space-time coins that had been thrown in. He nodded seriously, turned around, and put a cute baby mark on Jiaojiao's forehead: "That's enough, you're now qualified to dig for treasure."
"The treasure is on this rocky beach. The other side of the mountain is the territory of the evil dragon. You can't go there. If you go there, you will be captured by the evil dragon."
Jiaojiao nodded to show that she understood, then carried the small bamboo basket on her back and ran happily with her short legs to look for the treasure.
The netizens who saw this scene in the live broadcast room were touched by the cuteness of Jiaozi, but they also complained bluntly that the director would even cheat a two-year-old kid out of his money.
At the Jun family's house, Jun Che, who was sitting on the sofa holding a tablet, pursed his lips unhappily and frowned after discovering that Jiaojiao's money had been defrauded.
On the rocky beach, following Jiaojiao, Mu Yicheng, Shi Huairou and Lou Yaoyao all handed in their time and space coins. Cao Yuhao, who didn't have any time and space coins, looked around and simply left to help Jiaojiao find the treasure.
Xiao Tiancheng, who saw this scene on the Evil Dragon Stage, closed his eyes and took two deep breaths.
His angry and helpless look made fans feel distressed, while other netizens laughed so hard that their cheeks hurt.
Before the live broadcast, Director Cao was extremely happy when he saw his son's operation.
You know what, as long as this kind of thing doesn’t happen to you, watching others suffer is really a very happy thing!
In the end, the director pulled Cao Yuhao back and wrote an IOU for him to sign.
Cao Yuhao was reluctant to sign at first, but after the director's repeated persuasion, he finally agreed reluctantly.
"Who says I'm a loyal person?" He sighed and shook his head, then took a pen and signed his crooked name.
The treasures on the rocky beach were hidden very secretly by the directors, mostly under grass roots and stones.
Jiaojiao had sharp eyes and good luck, and soon she found two marked treasures.
Mu Yichen, who was also lucky, also found one. Apart from the two of them, the other three cubs have found nothing so far.
During this period, Cao Yuhao missed the treasure twice. The treasure was clearly under the grass roots he was digging, but he glanced at it hurriedly and missed it.
Xiao Tiancheng’s fans were so anxious that they stamped their feet!
As the children searched, their attention shifted away from the treasure.
Children of this age are most easily distracted, and the treasure is hidden very secretly, so the children's attention is easily diverted.
The director had anticipated this scene, otherwise he would not have given the parents the opportunity to direct the students.
Mu Yicheng, who was standing nearby, moved a stone near the riverbank and exclaimed in surprise, "There are little river crabs!"
Cao Yuhao heard it with his sharp ears and ran over immediately: "Where, where, where is the little crab?"
"Here."
"Really? It's so small." Cao Yuhao exclaimed in amazement.
Shi Huairou and Lou Yaoyao, who were standing on the riverbank and stretching their necks to look at the little fish, were also attracted by the attention. The two little sisters walked over hand in hand to see.
Jiaojiao also took a look with her short legs out of curiosity, and then continued to look for treasure.
Soon, only Jiaojiao and Mu Yichen were left looking for the treasure, while the other three were discussing something around the little crab.
"Brother Jiaojiao, brother Jiaojiao, there is a treasure here." Mu Yichen squatted down and said while digging the grass roots.
Jiaojiao, who was busy moving stones nearby, heard what she heard and thought that brother Mumu needed help. She stood up with her little hands on the ground and ran over with her short legs.
Jiaojiao ran over and squatted down to dig out the treasure from under the grass roots. After standing up, she handed the treasure to Mu Yicheng: "Brother Mumu, here you go."
Mu Yi took the treasure, walked behind Jiaojiao, and put it into Jiaojiao's small bamboo basket.
Jiaojiao, who was carrying a small bamboo basket, blinked in surprise: "Brother Mumu, you put it in the wrong place. This is Jiaojiao's bamboo basket!"
"You put it in the wrong place." Mu Yicheng took Jiaojiao's hand and walked forward: "You have two treasures. After I give you one, you only need two treasures to save Uncle Li. I will help you save Uncle Li first, and then we can save my father Lu together, okay?"
After understanding that Brother Mumu wanted to help her save her father, Jiaojiao looked up and smiled at Mu Yicheng: "Okay, Brother Mumu, that's the best."
Seeing this scene, a relatively long barrage of comments floated across the live broadcast room.
"I reasonably suspect that Mu Yicheng deliberately used the crab to attract their attention in order to reduce their competitiveness."
"Now we need to explain in detail what kind of competitiveness has been reduced!"
"That's impossible. My Mumu is not like that."
"You know what, if you think about it carefully, it's really possible!"
"Really, Mumu doesn't seem like the type to shout out in surprise upon discovering a small crab."
'One appears to be a well-behaved and polite gentleman, but is actually a scheming person. The other is a sweetheart and a heartthrob. What a great setup!'
"Ahhh, I love this setting. Here's your pen. Write me a million-word novel right now!"
Xiao Tiancheng, Chen Yingke, Shi Yue, Li Yubai and others who also saw the comments on the barrage all turned their eyes to Lu Yian.
Lu Yian, who was innocently caught in the crossfire, looked up at the sky. Don’t look at him, he knows nothing!
Not wanting their child to not live up to expectations and fall into the water, Shen Yingke, Shi Yue and Xiao Tiancheng tried their best to answer the questions.
In the end, Shen Yingke, who has rich experience, won the first place.
"Baby Huairou." Shen Yingke's voice rang out from the director's loudspeaker: "Baby Huairou, there's a treasure buried in the pile of grass with a purple flower not far from you."
This is the treasure that Cao Yuhao missed.
Shi Huairou remembered her mission when she heard Mother Shen's voice. She clapped her hands, stood up, and was about to follow the instructions when Shen Yingke suddenly shouted, "Stand still!"
Shi Huairou subconsciously stopped.
"Baby, Huairou baby, stand still and don't move. Be obedient, be good!"
Shi Huairou, who heard the panic in Mother Shen's voice, knew that something must have happened, and immediately froze and dared not move.
At this time, the staff on the scene and the netizens in the live broadcast room were in a panic, and the director's vest was soaked with cold sweat.
There was a silver ring snake in an attacking state in the grass next to Shi Huairou, Lou Yaoyao and Cao Yuhao.
