Chapter 105: Luck? The moon and stars don't exist
The moon slowly rises, the moonlight becomes brighter and brighter, and the starlight gradually fades.
The director team informed the guests that there would be a new task tomorrow that required them to get up early, and asked everyone to be prepared and go to bed early.
Qiao Zhizheng pondered: "Get up early? How early?"
Qiao Zheng thought about the director's unsociable behavior and decided she should make preparations. "The sooner the better. Let's shower and go to bed."
After a tiring day of traveling, Qiao Zhizheng walked around a bit in the afternoon. The novelty of coming here overwhelmed her tiredness. She felt very energetic and didn't feel tired at all.
I didn't expect that she fell asleep as soon as she got on the bed after taking a shower. When Qiao Zheng came out of the shower, I touched the ends of her half-dry hair and stroked her tired face with my fingers.
After Qiao Zheng yawned deeply, she sat at the head of the bed and used a towel to carefully absorb the moisture from the ends of her half-dry hair. She yawned again, turned the hair dryer to the lowest power, and blew her hair.
The hair dryer was turned to the lowest power, but it still made some noise, which was particularly noticeable in the quiet room. Qiao Zhizheng slowly frowned, grabbed Qiao Zheng's hand, rubbed his face in her palm, and his brows gradually relaxed.
A gesture of complete attachment.
Feeling the softness of her palm, Qiao Zheng looked at her peaceful sleeping face with gentle eyes. Her beautiful eyes were closed at the moment, and her long eyelashes cast a shadow under her eyes. Quiet, well-behaved, and dependent, she is mine.
Qiao Zheng lowered her head and wanted to kiss her, but she suddenly stopped halfway, picked up the towel at hand, and raised it to cover the camera accurately.
The camera is turned off at nine o'clock in the evening, and it is only a few minutes away from nine o'clock now, which makes Qiao Zheng's behavior at this time seem even more obvious.
Do you think that if you block us, we won’t know what you are going to do?
[Tsk, who hasn't seen that? What's so good about this? I don't want to see it. It's just a kiss. Here, take the towel away so I can see if your position is correct. Like I said before, I don't want to see it. I'm just worried you don't know how to kiss.]
I'm going to say it straight away, I want to see it.
【What can't our valued members see? 】
[Maybe...it's more than just kissing.]
Of course, they didn't do more than just kissing. This wasn't their own home. Qiao Zheng only used her breathing to trace Qiao Zhizheng's eyebrows and eyes - she was within a kissing distance if she lowered her head, but in the end she didn't kiss her to disturb her deep sleep.
But secretly, Qiao Zhizheng didn't want anyone other than herself to see her being so soft, adorable, and dependent and trusting.
Feet against feet, waist against waist, he wanted to reach out and hold her in his arms to sleep, but when he was about to touch her, he pulled his hands back, buried his head in her neck, and fell asleep in this uncomfortable but reassuring position.
The drifting ship has found its harbor, the thirsty traveler in the desert has found an oasis with abundant water and grass, and I have you.
When the director said to get up early, he really meant it.
At five o'clock in the morning, when the guests were still asleep, the director team came and knocked on the doors one by one, gathered the sleepy guests together, and announced today's tasks.
"There's a market at the foot of the mountain today. Please help the villagers sell more agricultural and sideline products at the market."
"Based on sales amount and sales time, the first place winner will receive a luxurious one-day tour of the surrounding area provided by the program team, the second place winner will receive a high-end one-day tour of the surrounding area provided by the program team, the third place winner will receive a simple one-day tour of the surrounding area provided by the program team, and the fourth and fifth place winners will need to plan their own one-day tours. The fourth place winner will receive 200 yuan in funding, and the fifth place winner will receive 100 yuan in funding."
Qingfanghao asked, "Does each group sell the same items?"
Directors: “Every group is different.”
Qingfanghao: "If the prices of the items in each group are different, wouldn't the group assigned to the cheaper items be at a disadvantage?"
Directors: "We have researched the market prices here and have allocated items and quantities to each group in a reasonable manner. The total price of each group is similar."
"Each group sends a representative, and they draw lots to decide which group's items will be sold."
Five groups of items - watermelons, peaches, dried fish and shrimps baked over firewood, woven baskets, woven straw fans, woven egg bags and other woven items, and lotus pods.
In summer, the days are long and the nights are short. It is already dawn now, and soon the sun will come out to greet you.
The director was explaining the rules. Some of the guests were sleepy, some were awake, and some were half sleepy and half awake. Qiao Zheng and Qiao Zhizheng belonged to the last category. The two of them leaned against each other, Qiao Zheng's head resting on Qiao Zhizheng's shoulder, and Qiao Zhizheng's head resting on Qiao Zheng's head. The two of them were stacked together in this position, yawning one after another, which fell into Cheng Sijin's ears. She was originally quite awake, and she also yawned a long and big yawn, which was passed on to Zhu Ping'an.
Zhou Yan and Yu Ting, who were full of energy, were fine and did not react. Lu Xingmian was successfully infected by his yawn. Gu Xingchui reached out and held him in his arms, letting him lean on his shoulder. Lu Xingmian stiffened for a moment, feeling a little uncomfortable in front of the camera and in front of everyone, but he did not struggle to offend Gu Xingchui and soon relaxed.
During the lottery, Cheng Sijin saw that Qiao Zheng and Qiao Zhizheng both looked equally sleepy and not very enthusiastic. "Why don't you come and draw together?"
"No—haah—you guys smoke—we'll take the rest—"
Cheng Sijin went to see Qiao Zheng, and Qiao Zheng also looked so sleepy that she couldn't open her eyes.
Qiao Zhizheng has had bad luck since she was a child.
When we play "Eagle Catches Chicken" in kindergarten and draw lots to see who will be the eagle, it will definitely be her.
When she was out playing with a friend, she got lost. Her friend asked her to go left or right. The direction Qiao Zhizheng randomly chose ended in a dead end.
Qiao Zhizheng doesn't believe in evil. No one would think that they are born with bad luck. Most people would firmly believe that they are God's lucky girl. They always get the participation prize in the lottery when spending a certain amount in the supermarket.
Qiao Zhizheng still didn't believe it. One year, a random lottery was held in a WeChat red envelope group among friends. The red envelope amount was 99.99 yuan. Two people grabbed it with their quick hands. One person got 99 and the other got 99. Yes, it was just as you thought. Qiao Zhizheng was the 99.
Later she learned her lesson. She was born with bad luck and would rather choose what others had left than take the initiative to draw.
After everyone else had finished drawing, Qiao Zheng and Qiao Zhizheng dragged their sleepy feet and opened the remaining results.
——woven fabric.
This thing is neither easy to sell nor difficult to sell.
The quantity is less than that of other groups, but selling these things is quite random. Every household has them, and they will only buy new ones when they are broken or tattered. If you are lucky, you can sell the ones you need. If you are unlucky, you may not make any income from selling them from morning to night.
Gu Xingchui and Lu Xingmian, who got the peaches, took the initiative to tell them that they could exchange them.
Few people knew that Qiao Zhizheng was allergic to peach hairs. Although they meant well, the two of them still refused. After thanking them for their kindness, they turned their attention to the group who drew the lotus and lotus pod, wishing them a safe and prosperous life.
Qiao Zhizheng walked up to the mountain and discussed with them for a few words. Zhu Ping's expression changed from confusion at the beginning to sudden realization.
Zhu Pingan nodded: "Okay."
Cheng Sijin laughed and said, "That's fine with me too."
Zhou Yan and Yu Ting met yesterday's big watermelon again. What Qingfang and Yu Yiqi saw yesterday were fresh fish and shrimps, but they didn't know what generation of relatives the dried fish and shrimps today were of yesterday's fish and shrimps.
The means of transportation assigned to them by the director team was also in line with the theme - two three-wheeled motorcycles, the kind with a front truck and an open-air compartment at the back.
The guests looked at the two vehicles with a look of bitterness and hatred on their faces. Who was driving in the front and who was sitting in the back?
Zhou Yan took one of the tricycles on his own initiative. While everyone was still hesitating about the remaining one, Qiao Zheng, who had borrowed a stack of colored paper from the director crew, came back and sat on the front of the remaining tricycle.
He sat down, shook his head, looked fierce, and drove the agricultural tricycle as if it were a motorcycle.
Cheng Sijin poked her head in. "You look so proficient, you must have done this before, right? Why are you buying so much colored paper on credit? To generate revenue? What price did the ruthless director ask you to pay?"
Qiao Zheng sighed and answered her questions one by one: "It's not that the task is too difficult. I discussed it with the director and decided to make up for it. The price is the normal price."
You are responsible for your own profits and losses. If you fail to pay back the money, double the corresponding funds will be deducted from the subsequent games.
Two cars, five groups of people, one group is bound to sit separately.
Qingfang suggested: "Why don't the girls take one car and the boys take another? We can all have fun together and not have to play with those stinky men."
On the surface, it seems that the distribution is reasonable, but in fact, only Qingfang is separated from Yiqi's group.
Yu Yiqi smiled and nodded: "Just do as you say."
No one raised any objection.
When Lu Xingmian got in the car, he accidentally saw that Yu Yiqi seemed to have a trace of loneliness on his face. Qingfang, on the other hand, looked normal and was chatting and laughing with the girls around her.
Lu Xingmian placed his hands on his knees, looking down at the crescent moon on his fingernails in silence. He felt very depressed and couldn't help but wonder, would he and Gu Xingchui end up like this in the future? When all the passion faded, the youth and beauty were gone, and the affection was worn away by quarrels, it became dull and stagnant, a pool of stagnant water, without love. Just thinking about it made Lu Xingmian's heart ache.
The more you cherish something, the more you want to hold on to it. The tighter you hold on to it, the faster it slips away.
Rather than hating each other in the future, it is better to let go now. At least the impression left on each other will still be the most beautiful moment in life.
Lu Xingmian bit her lips tightly, staring at the ground under her feet without saying a word. At this moment, a small yellow wild flower was stuffed into someone's palm.
Lu Xingmian looked up. It was already dawn. The sun peeked out from the silent white skyline, its orange-red head. Gu Xingchui's face was half clear and half shadowed in the skylight.
Lu Xingmian's heart was ignited by the little yellow flower, and it lit up slightly. When it met Gu Xingchui's star-like eyes, the little flame in his heart suddenly grew higher, and the loss and depression were burned out.
“Nants ingonyama bagithi Baba
Sithi uhm ingonyama
Nants ingonyama bagithi baba
..."①
A passionate and vibrant melody was carried by the wind from the girl's car in front to the ears of the people in the car behind.
As the red sun slowly rises, I feel like I am running freely on the African savannah, as if I will catch a rabbit or bite a deer in the next second. Running under the morning sun, the blood of the prey turns into a bunch of flowers in the air, adding a bit of mystery and danger to the savannah.
The blood in their bodies boiled with the song, and finally someone couldn't help asking: "The melody of this song sounds so familiar, what song is it?"
Yu Yiqi: "...The theme song from The Lion King."
Lu Xingmian couldn't help but started singing along, followed by Gu Xingchui, Zhou Yan and Yu Ting. As they sang, Yu Yiqi also started singing along.
The singing voice floated on the wind, hid in the gaps between the feathers of the flying birds, and flew into the pine buds in the forest.
At this time, those who stayed up late have not gone to bed yet, and almost no one who is asleep is awake. Perhaps they did not expect the live broadcast to start so early. There are only a few scattered comments in the live broadcast room.
Does the director treat the guests as if they were Japanese? Why did he wake them up so early?
I haven't slept yet
【Hey! I just woke up! 】
[I clicked on this app out of habit, but I didn’t expect there would be a live broadcast right away]
[Go out to find something to eat, have breakfast and then go to sleep]
I'm singing along with them. I have so much passion in my heart right now that I can sit and sing all day without stopping.
[Good... inhuman motivation]
[Good morning, good afternoon, and good night to everyone who sees this barrage]

The author has something to say: ① The beginning of the theme song "Circle of Life" from "The Lion King"
Classic animation gives people the feeling that you will never get bored no matter when you watch it. The original animated film version of "The Lion King" was released in the United States on June 15, 1994, which was several years before I was born. I used to watch this cartoon when I was a child.
If you can't get up, try using this as an alarm clock, ha→ha→ha↓~~~
Today is the day I still love you, give me a big kiss [kiss][kiss][kiss]
