clue
"I've also watched Director Han's variety shows. He doesn't seem like the type to randomly drop clues when he's bored. I guess besides the treasure, the game we played before was also a clue."
The treasure appeared in the middle of the journey, so this uncertainty added more possibilities to Zhu Yan's guess.
The first game they played was to ask questions, and the questions they asked were related to the mountain and to themselves.
The second level starts with a chain of ancient poems, followed by completing a task and saying some true and false words.
The third level involves guessing whether the stool is real or fake and recreating the turtle soup story. The fourth level is a game of soldiers catching thieves.
It may seem ordinary and it may be a game we play in our daily life, but if we think about it carefully, there is a connection between them.
The treasure question appears in the first level. The treasure is in the mountains, so questions related to the mountains are asked.
What is true and what is false, how to distinguish the true from the false, is something they need to analyze for themselves. This is the truth between treasure and reaching the summit.
In the ancient poetry chain game, you can only get a seat if you successfully recite an ancient poem, so the ancient times are real. The so-called ancient times may be in this mountain, but we don’t know its specific location or what it is.
But we can infer that the so-called true and false are not treasure and reaching the summit. Treasure may be one of them with a high probability, but reaching the summit is definitely not one of them.
Guessing whether the stool is real or not proves that they have definitely not reached the summit, and recreating the turtle soup is a reminder for them to pay attention to recreating what they have done along the way.
The officers and soldiers are catching a thief, but who is the real thief? Can the officers and soldiers really catch him?
Not necessarily. Whoever guesses right in the end will be the officer or soldier.
"So, I speculate," Zhu Yan said confidently, "that something related to antiquity, to officers and soldiers, and hidden in these deep mountains, is probably the winning puzzle this time."
There was a confident gleam in his eyes, confirming his own guess.
He spoke little along the way but was actually paying attention to everything around him. This might be due to his cautious personality, but the fact that he could think so carefully on his first variety show was enough to show his wisdom.
[Awesome, awesome! I'm just saying awesome! I was wondering how come I can play this somewhat simple game? It's rare to find this.]
I really admire Zhu Yan's intelligence. No wonder he doesn't appear on variety shows. Once he did, he figured out the entire rules.
[Wow, I suddenly started to envy Zhu Yan's future girlfriend. Sapiosexuals really can be obsessed.]
Not only fans and audiences saw Zhu Yan with light, but Chu Yuan as well.
For the first time, she felt that the description in the book seemed to be wrong. The yandere boy not only knew how to cry, but also how to analyze, which was exactly what Chu Yuan liked best.
So she liked Zhu Yan more and more.
"Then why did you just tell Fang Zhou and the others that you could give them the way to the treasure?"
"Of course we'll blow them up." Zhu Yan leaned back in his chair, relaxed. They hadn't set out yet, and he was sitting there leisurely, feeling quite relaxed. "Let them think they're all unsure. Actually, I'm 70% sure. At least this route is more advantageous than climbing to the summit."
Zhu Yan originally thought that they would go on their own after being eliminated, but he didn't expect there was a map. It is not difficult to imagine that the same thing would happen to the two groups that were eliminated earlier.
"Wow." Chu Yuan exclaimed, "You are so good at lying."
[Hahahahahaha, I'm dying of laughter. Chu Yuan, your understanding is a bit strange.]
【Chu Yuan: You old fool.】
Zhu Yan tutted his words in disagreement. He was relaxed, and his words were no longer as exclusive as before. "That's called wisdom."
"Then why are you telling me this?" Chu Yuan was puzzled. Did he think his brain could help him? That was totally wrong.
But luckily Zhu Yan wasn't that blind. He folded his hands behind his head and leaned back, glancing at her. "I need a favor. We have a better chance of winning as a team. I have the brains and you have the strength, so why not?"
This is the experience Zhu Yan has summarized in the past two days. Since it is not feasible to walk a path alone, Chu Yuan will definitely be a good helper.
Her small body contains great energy.
Chu Yuan let out a "Hey Yo" sound, and grandma's voice was so cute.
She slapped her thigh. "You're taking advantage of me."
It's a pity that she thought he had good taste. Humph, a man without taste, her brain could be sold for a lot of money.
The words he said were also cute and not offensive at all.
"Yes." Zhu Yan imitated her tone and said without pretending anything, "Isn't maximizing benefits also good?"
Chu Yuan thought about it and felt that what Zhu Yan said was right.
If they take first place, will Tong Yin be angry? Then today's mission is complete.
Zhu Yan found it quite amusing to see her changing moods, at least much more fun than when he was alone at home.
[To be honest, I really like this atmosphere where everyone talks openly about everything. I feel like neither of them is the type to keep secrets.]
On the first day of the show, I wanted Chu Yuan to stay away from Zhu Yan, but now I want them to be closer. What should I do? I think their reactions are really funny.
[Similarly, Chu Yuan's train of thought is rather bizarre, and if you look closely at Zhu Yan, he's a bit eccentric too.]
Chu Yuan "bears the pain" and follows Zhu Yan with the good mood of completing the task and being able to be with the handsome man.
Because they were in a separate team, Zhu Yan and Chu Yuan were handed a mobile phone by the program crew, and there was only one unknown contact in the phone.
Zhu Yan was still not sure who this person was, so he simply kept his troops in place.
After another ten minutes, the half-hour waiting time was over.
Zhu Yan had a good sense of direction and quickly found the right direction. "Let's go this way."
The route on the map goes around the treasure location. Zhu Yan is not sure how far this route is, but he is sure that this route must be correct.
Then it is possible that the hidden mission is on this road.
It won’t be far away, there will definitely be a more obvious sign.
The detour path wasn't easy to walk on, and basically required them to walk through piles of tall grass.
Chu Yuan was annoyed by the feeling of being trapped by weeds. She opened the map again and saw that there were trees and weeds all around, and it was difficult to find a clean piece of land.
This is probably one of the tests the director team is doing for them.
But Chu Yuan was a man who could find a shortcut out of adversity.
She observed the growth of the weeds around her and pulled Zhu Yan's wrist to the other side.
The cool touch on his wrist made Zhu Yan feel numb all over again.
The girl's white and clean hand was on his wrist. He seemed to be unconscious and was obediently led away by her.
After walking for a while, he asked, "What's wrong?"
Chu Yuan was walking in front and didn't see his expression. If he turned around at this moment, he would definitely see that Zhu Yan, who was usually a big talker, almost stuttered.
"I found a relatively easy path. At least we don't have to claw through the grass."
Chu Yuan firstly thought it was troublesome to walk by grasping the grass, and secondly he thought it was a waste of Zhu Yan's beautiful hands to use them like this, what if they got scratched.
She hadn't touched his hands enough.
Zhu Yan chose to believe her, she always had an extraordinary sensitivity.
After taking another detour, Zhu Yan discovered that the grass here was short and easy to walk on, and it was not far from their original route. As long as they were careful, they could still see different places on the road.
To be honest, Zhu Yan was very curious about why Chu Yuan had such a good "eyesight".
She always seems to be able to see things that others can't.
Walking along the path of Chuyuandai, there are some fragrant wild flowers on the road.
This is not a tropical rainforest, nor is it the most primitive place. Although it is a place for them to train their survival in the wild, it is also a carefully selected place.
"Hey, look." Chu Yuan pointed to the place next to him in surprise, and grabbed Zhu Yan's sleeve with his other hand, "Why is there a squirrel here? This must be a squirrel."
Chu Yuan followed her gaze.
There are many small animals living in the natural ecosystem. They are very brave and they watch them from the tree trunks while holding food in their hands.
Although Zhu Yan was puzzled that there would be squirrels in the mountains, he was more impressed when he encountered these lively creatures.
She looked at it as if she had never seen it before, with genuine liking.
"What is that?" Chu Yuan asked.
She had been looking at the squirrel, but she didn't expect that there was a white strip stuck on the thickest part of the tree under the trunk where the squirrel was standing.
Zhu Yan took two steps forward and tore off the white paper stuck on the tree.
The word "Northeast" was written on the white paper, with an arrow drawn below it.
Looking down along the place where the white paper was pasted, there was a box hidden in the grass, and the compass was in the box.
[No way, we found a clue so quickly? So smoothly?]
[This wave of Chu Yuan has done a great job. If she hadn't taken this path, she wouldn't have noticed the squirrel.]
[Couldn't Chu Yuan have known this a long time ago? ]
[No, it must be luck.]
Even Chu Yuan herself couldn't believe that she had gotten the clue so quickly. She looked at the relatively reliable people around her and asked, "It can't be that easy, right?"
Zhu Yan looked at the road they had just come from.
The road that was not easy to walk on was actually not far from them. He took Chu Yuan back and searched very carefully along the way. Then he found that if they had not happened to come here, the trees along the way would also give them the answer.
The trunks of all the trees they passed were marked with special symbols, with arrows showing which way to go.
It's just that the road just now was too difficult to walk, and they were so focused on walking through the tall grass that they ignored these things.
Chu Yuan's accidental discovery just pointed out to them how they should go on this path.
Zhu Yan walked back to the path Chu Yuan had been looking for, looked at the place where he had left the clue, and said with a smile, "I understand."
Their maps originally had meanings. Looking at the special marks on the map, those places were marked in Chinese and English.
Before, the two of them didn't take these things to heart, nor did they pay attention to the places on the map that had nothing to do with them.
But if you put the first letters of these English words together, it becomes follow. So what is follow? Trees are specially drawn on the map.
So just follow the tree.
The person who designed this link was telling them that they should follow these trees and the symbols on these trees.
Even if Chu Yuan had not brought them here and had not discovered the tree, they would have found it eventually, but it would have easily taken a long time.
Chu Yuan's unintentional action undoubtedly reduced the possibility of wasting their time.
Zhu Yan looked at Chu Yuan with some appreciation, "Well done."
[Amazing! The director team is really scheming. Most people wouldn't notice.]
[I really think Chu Yuan is very lucky. Even a blind cat catching a dead mouse is not normal.]
[This believer prayed to Chu Yuan today that she would definitely pass the fourth level.]
[Hey, add me in, I wish my stupid ex-boyfriend to be bald, thank you. ]
【Then I’ll come too. 】
One person inspired many people to "pray", and the screen was full of comments hoping that Chuyuan would make their wishes come true.
However, these Chu Yuan didn't know that she had just recovered from the momentum of going around and around, and she said to herself, "I didn't know I was so powerful."
Zhu Yan looked at her with a glimmer in his eyes.
