Chapter 51 Meow meow meow
Live broadcast room of all worlds.
This mandatory mission seems simple, but it is actually very difficult.
Because, the mission clearly states that one has to 'play the role of a domineering young master' while letting Yu Ming 'actively feed grapes'. These two items are easy to achieve separately, but when put together, many anchors are troubled.
After all, Yu Ming is not the kind of person who would succumb to power.
He wants to make money, but he has his bottom line. Once his bottom line is touched, he will withdraw without hesitation.
However, if force is not used, it will easily destroy the character of the overbearing young master, which will also lead to the failure of the mission.
Therefore, for such a seemingly simple character, nearly two hours have passed, nearly half of the anchors have been eliminated, and the remaining half are also struggling, not knowing how to break the deadlock.
The anchor who made the fastest progress was the one who had activated the mind-reading golden finger. While playing the role of a domineering young master, he used mind reading to quietly understand Yu Ming's inner thoughts and guided him step by step to complete the task...
Because he had the best chance of completing the task, the popularity of this anchor's entire live broadcast room also soared, with the number of viewers increasing by 50,000 to 60,000 in just half an hour.
Everyone thought he would be the first anchor to complete the task.
...until the announcement of Jian Yunlan's clearance sounded.
The entire Wanjie live broadcast room exploded!
[Jian Yunlan, why is it Jian Yunlan again? Who on earth is he?! ! ! 】
[If I remember correctly, he was also the one who broke through the dimension of "Paranoia Monopoly" before? And he was the one who saved Liangliang? Is he still the protagonist of the video "The Three-Year Period Has Arrived"? ! 】
【He is a hot man :)】
[Simple and simple, blue sky and white clouds, walk together all the way, click on the fan group to follow and don’t get lost~~~]
[…How did he get through?] 】
[The following may sound outrageous, but it is all true: Boss Jian overbearingly asked Yu Ming to help him at his fruit snack stand, which made Yu Ming completely awaken his innate grape peeling body and turned him into an emotionless grape peeling machine, and then——]
The official Wanjie Live Room provided a screenshot:
Jian Yunlan, wearing a floral apron, was just standing next to the snack stand to rest because she was tired of setting up the stall. But Yu Ming, who was already obsessed with peeling and putting grapes, suddenly stuffed a grape into his mouth.
In that official screenshot, Jian Yunlan looked at Yu Ming in confusion, with a big, round grape stuffed in his mouth.
The official Wanjie Live Room also thoughtfully added "Successful clearance!" next to this screenshot. ' red seal.
Audience: “…”
Official, you are such a screenshot genius!
Fortunately, Jian Yunlan’s looks were too good to be true, and he managed to hold up even such a fatal screenshot angle with his stunning beauty... But this screenshot, no matter from which angle you look at it, is still very funny.
There is a hint of funnyness in handsomeness, and a hint of ridiculousness in cuteness.
Get the emoticon pack!
I don’t know who was so brilliant, but as soon as this screenshot came out, he was quick to make it into an emoticon package.
The more than 200,000 viewers in Jian Yunlan's live broadcast room, as well as the constant influx of new viewers, all began to post emojis:
[Before, it was always Boss Jian who confused the protagonist of the melodramatic article. Now, suddenly, the guest has become the host, and it is the protagonist of the melodramatic article who confuses Boss Jian. Hahahaha]
[Ming Ming: It is our responsibility to restore the glory of the protagonist of a melodramatic novel! 】
[Boss Jian doesn’t know, Boss Jian just wants to quietly sell fruit (Boss Jian eating grapes.jpg)]
[You old guys are so bad, please stop spreading the emoticons of our boss Jian, okay? OK (Boss Jian eating grapes.jpg)]
[Let's set up a stall. I'm glad you have your own opinions on setting up a stall (Boss Jian eating grapes.jpg)]]
【(Boss Jian eating grapes.jpg)】
【……6】
[Are you guys tired of studying for so many degrees? 】
[Someone come and stop Ning Shen! He’s already printing out this photo, saying he wants to put Boss Jian’s handsome photo up for dinner, which is like eating Boss Jian’s fruit salad (shudder) — from the character Li Mingxi in “Paranoia”]
[Brother Mingxi, don't be anxious. Listen to me. Go to the street and buy Ning Bao 1 tael of strawberries, 1 tael of yellow peaches, and 50 cents of Oreos. Take them with ice yogurt. Three doses are a course of treatment. They can be taken before or after meals. It will be more effective if you play back Boss Jian's live broadcast recording (Boss Jian eating grapes.jpg)]
[The barrage has become a mess, let's drink it while it's hot! 】
[The porridge is good. When will Boss Jian sell porridge? I want to see it and drink it (drooling)...]
[Your blue sky and white clouds are filled with nothing but oil and salt! ! ! 】
…
[Speaking of which, the first anchor to complete a mission will receive official rewards from Wanjie, right? What is Boss Jian’s reward? 】
Because of the particularity and high difficulty of the mandatory tasks, in each book-crossing challenge, the first anchor to complete the task will receive a mysterious reward from the official Wanjie.
This kind of reward can generally span multiple dimensions. After obtaining the reward, the host will have this reward no matter which dimension he goes to.
Previously, some anchors were rewarded with money power, real money power. No matter which plane they go to, they will get a steady stream of the universal currency of that plane. Some anchors were also rewarded with portals, and they can choose to return to the plane of all worlds through the portal at any time, and travel back and forth between the various planes...
What is Boss Jian’s reward?
Under the constant urging of the audience, Wanjie Live finally released the news:
[To reward the anchor [Jian Yunlan] for being the first challenger to clear the mandatory main mission, the anchor [Jian Yunlan] will receive:]
【Boss Jian's Moving Castle x1】
[Note: The Jian family villa is Boss Jian’s warm haven. The housekeeper and servants will always be the young master’s strongest backing! 】
[After the reward is activated, the Jian Family Villa can appear at any location in the current plane. At the same time, all employees hired by the Jian Family Villa will no longer be forcibly recruited as NPCs. They will have independent consciousness and be directly bound to the employment relationship with Boss Jian. 】
Wow.
This is the first time I have seen this reward.
The audience immediately started a heated discussion.
…
The plane of "Light in the Dark River".
Jian Yunlan only felt that his eyes suddenly went dark, and then bright again.
When I opened my eyes again, I was already sitting in a Maybach luxury car, with the familiar soft leather seats and the driver Xiao Li chatting:
"Master, if you ask me, you should avoid going to KTVs in the early morning. It's not good for your health. It's hard enough for you to set up a stall every day..."
The strange feeling on Xiao Li disappeared, and he became the familiar talkative Xiao Li again.
Jian Yunlan breathed a sigh of relief for some unknown reason.
After he heaving a sigh of relief, he remembered again -
Wait, now that he’s gone, what’s going to happen to his fruit stall?
…
Gilded KTV.
The diners looked at the empty fruit stall in disbelief.
The second after Yu Ming stuffed the grape into Boss Jian's mouth—
A group of bodyguards in suits walked in aggressively, carried Boss Jian away, and stuffed him into a luxurious Maybach.
The fruits, yogurt, etc. on the stall were also running out. According to a rough estimate, Boss Jian sold about one or two hundred servings of fruit salad in the past hour, and it was indeed time for them to be sold out.
Those who got the fruit were fine.
Those who queued for a long time but didn't get to eat the fruit soup started to break down and go crazy on the spot, crawling in the dark:
"Boss, we are such a big boss! Those bodyguards kidnapped our beloved boss!!!"
"That seems to be Boss Jian's own bodyguard."
"Will I ever have the chance to eat such delicious fruit in this lifetime? Woohoo..."
“Although I have tasted it, I still want to keep eating it. I will never get tired of it. Where on earth is the boss setting up a stall or opening a store???”
"Haven't you noticed that Boss Jian drives a Maybach? I guess he doesn't make money from this, it's just a hobby—"
The diners were stunned.
The next second, they cried even more miserably! ! !
If Boss Jian makes money from this, then they can always find his fruit salad again no matter where they go.
But he is not short of money! ! !
Wang Xiaofu wiped his tears and muttered to himself: "How can there be things in this world that money can't buy? If I can't eat Boss Jian's fruit salad, what's the point of me using this huge amount of money for demolition..."
The people in the kitchen chased after Boss Jian and shouted:
"Master, have you forgotten us disciples? Master, we agreed to go to the West together to obtain Buddhist scriptures!"
Even Huo Huan was a little panicked.
From childhood to adulthood, because everything came too easily, she didn't even need to ask for what she wanted, others would bring it to her door.
But at this moment, she covered her chest and felt her heart beating a little fast.
——She had a premonition that even if she wanted to eat Boss Jian’s food, she would have to go through a lot of hardships.
The novice protection period has expired!
Huo Huan's eyes, from the naivety of a rich young lady at first, gradually became firm and determined, and she had the demeanor of a great woman:
"In order to eat Boss Jian's fruit salad again, I have to mature and be independent."
The entire Liujin KTV was in chaos.
Some were crying, some were playing the victim, some were chasing after Maybach, some were going crazy because they couldn't eat fruit -
And what no one noticed was.
A second before Jian Yunlan was carried away by the bodyguards, he quickly stuffed something into the young man who had been peeling grapes silently.
In the dark corner of the gilded KTV.
Yu Ming lowered his eyelashes and stared at the box of fruit in his hand.
The fruit basket was illuminated by a warm yellow night light, and it was filled with watermelons, peaches, strawberries, and avocados buried in the sweet and sour and delicate yogurt. Crushed peanuts and candied beans are sprinkled on the yogurt surface, giving off a rich milky and fruity aroma.
There was a small note on the fruit box with two large characters written in a flamboyant style:
'salary'.
There was also a check for fifty thousand dollars attached.
Yu Ming read the note carefully.
The note turned over and he suddenly saw another line of words written on it:
"At 7 o'clock in the evening at the gate of Hetang Community, Mr. Jian's spicy hot pot snack stand is open. Welcome to taste it~"
Yu Ming: “…”
Yu Ming: "Malatang...?"
Reflexively, the childhood shadow of crying and having a burning throat due to spicy food came to my mind.
But this time, inexplicably, Yu Ming remembered the rich aroma he had smelled in Aunt Song’s take-out box.
The fresh aroma of beef broth, the hot and spicy taste...
I heard from Aunt Song that the spicy hot pot was packed by Yang Moufu's family.
...Boss Jian, you also sell malatang?
.
The next day.
Even though he had stayed up all night setting up the stall last night, Jian Yunlan still got up early today. As soon as he got up, he stood excitedly at the door, as if he was studying something.
Hu Danggui, wearing bunny pajamas, yawned and asked the housekeeper in a baby voice, "Uncle housekeeper, what is the master doing?"
The housekeeper bowed slightly to Hu Danggui and said, "Miss Hu, the young master has discovered a new function in our villa and is testing it."
Taotie was lying on the sofa, holding the tablet that Jian Yunlan had just bought for him and writing a report. There was no special expression on his handsome face. Hearing their conversation, Taotie said without replying, "Humph, this human is just making a fuss, it's just a mere transplant."
...In this house, there are three ways to address Jian Yunlan, from 'Master', 'Young Master' to 'Human', but these three call him by his own name, and there is no obstacle in communication.
Hu Danggui took a snack from the coffee table and stuffed it into his mouth. While chewing, he walked to Jian Yunlan and said, "Master, what's for lunch today?"
"Let the housekeeper do it for you." Jian Yunlan said, "I'm studying this door and I don't have time for the moment."
No, she wants to eat the lunch made by Jian Yunlan!
Hu Danggui pursed her lips and tears welled up in her eyes.
The next second, Jian Yunlan suddenly opened the door. It was snowing outside. A gust of cold wind blew by, and Hu Danggui's tears were frozen on her face.
Hu Danggui: “?”
Penguin outside the door: "Cuckoo?"
"Sure enough, whatever I think about will appear outside the door..." Jian Yunlan closed the door and said to himself, "But no matter where I teleport to, it will be in this small plane and cannot cross planes."
Yes, this morning Jian Yunlan woke up still half asleep. When she opened the door, she found that the scenery outside was very different.
It seemed to be related to the mandatory task reward he completed last night.
Not only the villa, but even the servants in the villa seemed to have become different - everyone became more energetic, like real human beings, while before they more or less felt like 'NPCs'.
In front of him, Jian Yunlan silently chanted "desert" in his heart and opened the door.
Outside the door, the sun was scorching, and all I could see was yellow sand. In the middle of the endless desert, a traveler was riding a camel, and the sound of camel bells could be heard.
A gust of hot wind mixed with sand blew away the tears that had frozen into ice crystals on Hu Danggui's face, and covered her face with sand.
Hu Danggui: “?”
The camel outside the door: "Lululu?"
Hu Danggui: “…”
"This function doesn't seem to be of any use to me when setting up a stall, but it's really interesting," Jian Yunlan said excitedly, "It's just like Doraemon's Anywhere Door!"
Taotie on the sofa sneered: "What Dora Emeng? I am the dignified Taotie, am I not more majestic and imposing than that imported product?"
This simple act of teleportation was something that Lord Taotie could accomplish with just a snap of his fingers. Not to mention within the plane, even if it is across planes, as long as the human asks him for help, Taotie can do it at any time.
Can that fat blue guy compare to him?
Jian Yunlan: "Yes, yes, you are not an imported product, you are a local specialty."
Taotie: “?”
Why does it sound weird?
Despite this, Jian Yunlan was still very excited about this new discovery.
——Who hasn’t fantasized about having a magical door when they were a child?
However, from the perspective of convenience for setting up a stall, the most suitable location is still...
Jian Yunlan closed the door and then opened it again.
There are birds singing and flowers blooming outside, and the sun is shining brightly.
There is a small hill behind the Hetang community, and the villa area lies at the foot of this hill. At eight o'clock in the morning, Song Lanzhen opened the door and was about to breathe in some fresh air when she saw that the door of the villa next door, which had been vacant for a long time, was also open.
A handsome young man came out of the next door, smiled at her and said hello: "Aunt Song, hello, I just moved in."
Aunt Song rubbed her eyes, and rubbed them again.
After a while, she suddenly jumped up at an unimaginable speed and uttered a sharp cry: "Lao Song, Lao Song, come and see!!!"
Uncle Song, who was about to go out to practice Tai Chi, asked: "?"
He was dragged by his wife and walked to the door in a daze, and greeted Jian Yunlan.
"Boss Jian, Boss Jian has moved next to us," Aunt Song said, wiping away tears with emotion. "This is a great blessing. We can eat with him from now on. No, it will be convenient for neighbors to help each other."
Jian Yunlan: "..."
Aunt Song, you seem to have spoken your mind!
Three o'clock in the afternoon.
Jian Yunlan rode her tricycle on time to go to the vegetable market to purchase goods.
As soon as she entered the vegetable market today, Jian Yunlan received a warm welcome from various market owners. The treatment she received was even better than that of a celebrity. Several people's eyes lit up immediately and they gathered around:
"Boss Jian, we have some new lotus roots. Just take them away. We won't charge you any money!"
"Ang ang, there's also this beef from my house. It's delicious. I've already cut it for you. Just take it~"
"I went home and made some extra sesame paste and gave it to Boss Jian for free!"
The person who spoke was Old Zhao, who sold sesame paste. He had specially brought his two dogs with him. The dogs surrounded Jian Yunlan affectionately and licked his fingers.
The others who were buying and choosing vegetables were shocked by the scene.
What ability does this young man have that he can impress the entire market owner?
Many bosses enthusiastically stuffed things into Jian Yunlan's hands. Jian Yunlan was too embarrassed to accept them, so some bosses secretly stuffed them into his tricycle.
...As a result, Jian Yunlan hadn't even walked halfway through the vegetable market when the tricycle was already full!
Jian Yunlan: "..."
He said that his bike was getting slower and slower the more he rode it.
Looking at the back seat of the tricycle, there were all kinds of vegetables, carrots, pork, mutton, beef... The vegetable market owners had all picked out the best of their own and kept them for him. When other people wanted to buy, they wouldn't sell them to him and just gave them to him for free.
This is the bosses' way of thanking Jian Yunlan for saving the dogs.
Jian Yunlan was very touched, and then secretly went to each stall to scan the code and pay.
...It's like playing a spy. You have to scan the code when the bosses aren't paying attention, otherwise it would be bad if you get caught.
Very thrilling.
After walking around the vegetable market, just when Jian Yunlan had almost finished buying everything, she suddenly heard a voice shouting:
"Please come and have a look~ Fresh Beef Throat! It's delicious in soup, hotpot, spicy hotpot, or barbecue!"
The one hawking the goods was obviously a Qingche college student who was helping his parents to look after the stall, and he was not very skilled in setting up the stall.
Jian Yunlan took a closer look and saw that the yellow throat was a healthy light yellow with an even blood color. Although it had not been rated by the Eye of the God of Cooking, it looked of very good quality.
When the boy saw Jian Yunlan, he was still selling yellow throat fish at first.
As Jian Yunlan approached, for some reason, the boy suddenly moved his nose and said with a red face, "Brother, you smell so good."
Jian Yunlan: “???”
"Ah, that's not what I meant!" The boy waved his hand. "You smell of pheromones. Is it spicy hot pot? It smells so good..."
"Are you approaching your susceptible period?"
Normally, the smell of pheromones is not so strong unless it is during the susceptible period.
The boy couldn't help but touch the tip of his nose.
The pheromones of this handsome guy in front of me are so fragrant, just like the spicy and fresh fragrance of Sichuan spicy hot pot, which makes people hungry just by smelling it.
The boy looked at Jian Yunlan and his saliva started dripping.
Boy: “…Excuse me.”
Jian Yunlan: "What is the susceptible period?"
Seeing that Jian Yunlan didn't know what the susceptible period meant, the boy explained it enthusiastically: Corresponding to the Omega's fever period, during the Alpha's susceptible period, the Alpha will become more irritable and impulsive, his inner desires will be magnified, he will be unable to control his pheromones, and he will have an aggressive instinct.
"It would be much better if I had an Omega partner to accompany me." The boy said, "Of course, I can also drink suppressants."
"Oh." Jian Yunlan nodded, thinking about buying some inhibitors.
But soon, he forgot about it again.
After all, what could be more important than setting up a stall?
.
Live broadcast room of all worlds.
The atmosphere in the "Light in the Dark River" area has been completely heated up by last night's mandatory mission.
The elimination rate of this mandatory task is higher than in previous years. More than 60% of the anchors were eliminated. Most of the remaining anchors have some outstanding qualities, which makes it very interesting to watch.
[The elimination rate this time is too high, many big anchors have been eliminated]
[Most of the surviving anchors completed their success by counting down, except for Boss Jian, whose success is truly unrepeatable (head-holding)]
【simple door.jpg】
[Don't be silent, it's the third day, and the key plot point is about to begin! No matter how powerful Jian Yunlan is, there is no way he can rewrite the plot, right? 】
[Not to mention Jian Yunlan, a new anchor, even Li Yue, a million-dollar anchor who almost passed the game last time, couldn't change the plot...]
[I am a new audience, what is the plot? 】
[Today is the day when Mingming's gland is injured. I dare not look at it anymore.]
The plot development of "Lights in the Dark River" has always been famous for its fast pace.
For example, on the third day of the plane opening, the most critical plot event in the early stage, which directly led to the greatest tragedy in Yu Ming's life, will come.
On the third night, Yu Ming bravely rescued several children from the hands of some knife-wielding thugs.
As a result, his glands were severely injured.
He originally had a high probability of differentiating into an Alpha, but because of the gland injury and long-term malnutrition, he directly differentiated into an Omega.
This differentiation result not only shattered Yu Ming's ideals and made him miss the military academy, but also caused him to be entangled and forced by Fu Changfeng in various ways, sliding towards the abyss.
This was the most desperate turning point in Yu Ming's life.
[During Liyue's last challenge, she was lucky and almost stopped the gangsters in advance, but she failed to keep an eye on the children running around, so the children were taken hostage. In the end, Yu Ming sacrificed himself to save the children...]
[I wonder if there will be a miracle this time? 】
[It feels impossible]
[I speculate that this should be a plot-driven death. Without this plot, how could Yu Ming differentiate into an Omega? If he doesn't differentiate, what's the point of acting in pseudo-orthopedic forced love? 】
The meaning of "plot killing" is that the plot direction set by the original plot cannot be rewritten by the challenger.
Although the official Wanjie Live Room has never acknowledged the existence of any "plot killing", the audience has gradually figured out some clues from many challenges.
——Like the plot of Yu Ming’s division, all the anchors tried their best but couldn’t change it, it must be the plot that killed him!
Even the Upside-Down Hotpot Brother, who had been silent for a while after being slapped in the face by Jian Yunlan, has already started to speak out on the big public screen in the special zone:
"I swore before that if anyone finished Dark River Lights, I would drink the old hot pot... It doesn't feel exciting enough."
——"Let's put it this way, if there is a host who can cure Yu Ming and prevent Yu Ming's glandular injury this time, I will spin upside down and drink all the hot pot [picture]!"
Wow.
The audience was surprised.
The upside-down hotpot guy has made a solemn oath!
Many viewers went to the live broadcast room opened by the inverted hotpot brother to leave messages:
[Hotpot Brother, where does your confidence come from? There are many talented new anchors this time.]
[Yes, yes. If you drink such a big pot, I'm afraid you will go straight to the anorectal emergency room, right? =口=】
Hotpot brother grinned: "My home is next to the hospital, and my mother is the chief physician of the anorectal department."
audience:"……"
No wonder you came prepared.
"However," Brother Hotpot patted his chest confidently, "I'm not panicking at all. I'll leave it at that. No one can save Yu Ming!"
[Do you still remember Boss Jian who made you lose face before...]
[Hotpot brother, you also know that Boss Jian’s food has the miraculous effect of healing people. What if Yu Ming eats Boss Jian’s spicy hot pot and recovers right on the spot? (.)
Hotpot Brother laughed out loud: "Ha! Ha! Ha! What a funny joke, Yu Ming? He hates eating spicy hotpot the most!"
One comment pointed out:
[Hotpot Brother, how do you know Yu Ming so well? 】
The smile on Hotpot Brother’s face froze.
Yes, in fact, the upside-down hotpot brother has a hidden identity.
...He is a die-hard fan of Yu Ming.
In the past, Hotpot Brother, like other friends, only watched live broadcasts of male-led novels. He was not interested in any BL or bloody stories, thinking that they were "things girls like."
But later, by chance, he watched a live broadcast of "Light in the Dark River" and was impressed by the lonely, bright and passionate young man in the show.
Hotpot Brother has always hoped that there will be an anchor who can change Yu Ming's destiny, allowing Yu Ming to realize his dream and serve his country as he wishes.
However, after being disappointed again and again, and watching Yu Ming slip into the abyss again and again...
The upside-down hotpot guy has turned evil!
He became twisted and he began to no longer believe that anyone could change Yu Ming's fate, but deep down he still had a glimmer of hope that a miracle would happen.
Therefore, he repeatedly swore an oath by eating hot pot upside down, hoping that this would have the opposite effect.
But his predictions always came true, and he was even named the Great Prophet of Bloody Stories by the audience in the Wanjie Live Broadcast Room...
[Many old fans don’t know that Yu Ming hates Malatang. How did Hotpot Brother know? 】
"Well," in order to hide his identity as a fan, Hotpot Brother's eyes wandered, "Occasionally, I heard it occasionally, I forgot where I heard it from."
"...But I can assure you that there is no way Yu Ming would go to eat spicy hot pot!"
A barrage of comments passed by:
【Really? 】
[Then why was Yu Ming already standing at the door of Yang Moufu in Boss Jian’s live broadcast room? 】
Hotpot Brother: “……???”
His eyes widened in disbelief and he quickly entered Jian Yunlan's live broadcast room.
A screen is displayed above:
Yu Ming stood at the door of Yang Moufu, raised his eyes and looked at the sign carefully.
His back was straight, like a delicate orchid or jade tree, attracting the attention of passers-by.
The tip of the boy's nose moved slightly, sniffing the fragrance coming from the wind...
Yu Ming frowned, looking a little confused.
——It smells wrong.
