Jing Cheng was actually not interested in who Ye Jiming was or how old he was.
But he was surprised that Fu Le actually admired a star who was several years younger than him.
He is also an e-sports star who became famous by playing games.
Even though Fu Le follows Qin Yan foolishly all day long and looks like he doesn't care about anything, this guy is actually a second-generation rich man. Most of his family members are well-known figures in society. He really "doesn't care" about people he doesn't care about... Jing Cheng was surprised enough to know that he was also a fan.
Before it was Yan Xiu, and now it is Ye Jiming.
...It's just that my taste in chasing stars is not very good.
In this era of developed internet environment and ever-changing gaming industry, many people can make a living from games that were considered "distracting" by the general public in the past... This is incredible to Jing Cheng.
Especially after listening to the two people's explanation, Ye Jiming dropped out of school at a young age and gave up his studies in order to play professionally. He entered youth training at the age of thirteen or fourteen and devoted himself to the game. At a young age, he and his teammates were able to win trophies in some domestic or international competitions. He has become one of the most popular star players in the current e-sports circle.
This made Jing Cheng feel like he was looking at flowers in the fog.
In his opinion, going to school is a sacred thing. In his time, being able to study was a luxury. He had seen too many cases where "the whole family ate dirt just to support a scholar". "Everything is inferior, only reading is superior" is a traditional thought engraved in the bones of the Chinese for thousands of years. The status of scholars in society is quite high, not to mention those students who returned from studying abroad and brought advanced knowledge, they are the pillars of the country.
...
...
It was also because of this that he persuaded Lian Xuefeng to go to school.
Being able to enjoy the scene of studying quietly in the classroom in a peaceful and prosperous era was something Jing Cheng had never dared to dream of, so he cherishes his current life.
Otherwise, based on his code of conduct, he would have parted ways with the Jing family long ago.
But now that society has progressed and everyone can enjoy nine years of compulsory education, why would anyone choose to drop out of school?
Please forgive him for being an "old antique" and not understanding the fashion of young people today.
Jing Cheng frowned and turned his head to look at Qin Yan.
Obviously, Qin Yan expressed his opinion in a more direct way. He put his hands in his trouser pockets and rolled his eyes to the sky.
Seeing his attitude, Jing Cheng was a little curious, because the Qin Yan he knew was not someone who would express dislike towards someone for no reason.
The last person who aroused his strong disgust was Yan Xiu.
Of course, it was later proved that Yan Xiu did have big problems.
So what is the reason for Ye Jiming?
Before he could ask, Fu Le said mysteriously the next second: "In fact, the reason why Ming Shen was named a 'god' was not because of his skills, but because of his weird luck."
Jing Cheng became interested: "Oh?"
Fu Le: "It's not obvious during training, but whenever there's a competition, his opponents are always eliminated for all sorts of weird reasons: keyboard problems, vision bugs, sudden stomach upset and unable to participate in the competition, falling asleep inexplicably in the middle of the game..."
"It's especially obvious when playing solo. All opponents who encounter him will instantly become as bad as shit."
Jing Cheng: “…” He felt intimidated.
Fu Le exclaimed in amazement: "People in the industry nicknamed him 'European Emperor', and Mingshen is what his fans call him."
"The strangest thing is that people who openly go against him seem to have no good ending." Having said this, Fu Le paused.
Jing Cheng's expression became serious: "Does it involve human life?"
Fu Le nodded reflexively, then perhaps felt something was wrong and shook his head again: "No, that's not the case."
Jing Cheng: “?”
Fu Le recalled: "When he participated in the championship last year, his opponent fell asleep when the competition was the most intense. Afterwards, the big brother suspected that someone might have put sleeping pills in his water cup, and the object of suspicion was Ye Jiming. The big brother thought that Mingshen used unfair means to win the game... Who knew that this guy was on his way to report the case when he suddenly had a car accident and was admitted to the hospital. He was fine except for his hand. His e-sports career came to an abrupt end. Tsk tsk tsk... How tragic!"
Jing Cheng: "...Why do I feel like you are gloating over someone else's misfortune?"
"Tsk." Fu Le curled his lips and said, "Because the relevant evidence shows that the guy was simply framed. The reason he fell asleep was because he stayed out all night in the bar the night before the game. Later, this guy was also exposed as a slut. What bottom line can you expect from him, a wicked guy?"
“…”
Jing Cheng thought of a new word he learned from the Internet: Your circle is so messy.
Jing Cheng glanced at Fu Le suspiciously. From his tone, he could tell that this guy was worshipping other people's weird luck.
Fu Le was still sighing: "So this shows that God is definitely the chosen one in the e-sports circle, a being favored by God."
Jing Cheng looked at Qin Yan and signaled with his eyes: What's wrong with you?
Qin Yan responded with a puzzled look: What’s going on?
Jing Cheng: Don’t think I can’t see that you seem to be very dissatisfied with Ye Jiming.
Qin Yan: ...You must have seen it wrong.
Qin Yan felt embarrassed inside, but his face remained calm.
He would never tell anyone about the embarrassing moment he made on that little brat.
When I was in the ranking match, I came across Ye Jiming’s authentication number. Because I didn’t like him, I deliberately mocked him and then was beaten by him by the head. This kind of dark history (……), let it be buried by time.
Fu Le looked at Jing Cheng, then at Qin Yan, his expression becoming more and more dazed.
What was going on? Without his knowledge, had these two people already cultivated to the point where they could communicate through brain waves?
Is this how cultivation can work? Does he want to try it too?
It will be very convenient for future exams...
Fu Le couldn't help but think seriously.
…
Although "Incredible Journey" has the word "travel" in its title, it is essentially a supernatural program, so the filming locations originally chosen by Director Zhao were all remote and almost unknown places, and the filming locations were deliberately blurred during filming. This is to avoid tourists flocking to check in after the program becomes popular.
People in the entertainment industry are so "clear about what they like and hate". They will refuse to advertise without sponsorship fees.
Jing Cheng's threesome and the program crew chartered a tour bus and set off overnight. The bus drove for six hours and arrived at the destination at 2:30 in the morning. It was late at night and it was pitch black everywhere. Everyone in the program crew rubbed their sleepy eyes and struggled to get off the bus.
Jing Cheng and his friends were sitting at the end of the bus. The three of them started out by hiding in the back and playing Landlord, laughing all the way. In the end, only Jing Cheng was awake, as the other two had already fallen asleep and had no idea what day it was.
"Don't sleep, get ready to get off."
Jing Cheng woke them up. The car door was wide open and everyone was packing their luggage and walking out. The cold night wind blew in their faces, and the two shivered and suddenly woke up.
"Hiss - why is it so cold?" Fu Le's face was still a little sleepy and dazed. He rubbed his arms and shivered unconsciously.
Qin Yan glanced out the window. It was pitch black, and not even a light could be seen. He frowned and said, "It's cold on a mountain road at night."
Jing Cheng put on his backpack and turned around to greet the two people: "The mountain is high and steep here, the bus can't go up. You two were sleeping soundly just now and didn't hear it. The driver asked us to find a way to get up by ourselves."
Fu Le leaned over the window and looked out, then turned his head and said in dissatisfaction: "Drop us on the mountain in the middle of the night? This driver must have lost his mind... Eh? Why did you take this out?"
He pointed a finger at Jing Cheng, his tone turning to surprise.
Jing Cheng was taking out a few talismans and a dagger-sized peach wood sword from his backpack.
Jing Cheng said without even turning his head: "There are many spirits on the mountain at night, just in case."
Fu Le was surprised: "No way, we always climbed Mount Tai at night before, and we didn't see any monsters?"
"In ancient times, people often built temples on the Five Sacred Mountains, and feudal emperors held Fengshan sacrifices, gathering folk beliefs and having gods in charge. Mount Tai was the most popular, so it was difficult for monsters to survive." Jing Cheng patiently explained to him, "Mount Tai stone has the effect of warding off evil spirits, not to mention the source of Mount Tai stone? Monsters dare not run rampant there. Old people often say 'poor mountains and bad waters produce unruly people'. In fact, these 'unruly people' refer not only to humans, but also to some gods and ghosts. Monsters often appear in desolate and remote rural areas because there are few people there."
Qin Yan glanced at his phone thoughtfully: "There is no signal here. It seems that there is indeed a problem with the magnetic field."
Fu Le was confused by what he heard, so he simply clasped his fists towards Jing Cheng in a serious manner and said, "Come on, our lives and property all depend on Master Jing and your disciple. I hope you two will show some mercy."
Qin Yan snorted coldly: "This boy is not worthy of being a strategist."
Fu Le looked very sad, holding his chest and sighing: "I am so heartbroken, Brother Yan has a boyfriend and has forgotten his brothers."
Qin Yan: "...get out."
Qin Yan tilted his head awkwardly and glanced at Jing Cheng, his eyes bright and a hint of shyness revealed on his usually gloomy face.
This scene was rare to see, and Jing Cheng felt itchy and couldn't help pinching his cheek. He couldn't understand English, so he naturally didn't understand the teasing meaning of Fu Le's deliberate English speaking. He just thought that Qin Yan's expression at the moment was particularly interesting.
Qin Yan: “…”
The other staff members of the production team were busy moving luggage and equipment, and the three of them hid aside and made jokes.
After everyone got off the car, the director team started to call people, and Jing Cheng said seriously: "Stop making trouble, take the amulets I gave you with you, and don't go too far away from me. It's always better to be careful here."
Qin Yan was wondering what was going on in his mind. His face was still red, but unfortunately it was covered by the darkness. The two people beside him didn't notice it. He just nodded slightly: "Hmm."
Fu Le recalled the terrifying experience of the previous few nights, and his face twisted. However, since he had already followed the main group and could not leave, he felt that this trip was both tense and exciting. After listening to Jing Cheng's instructions, he quickly responded:
"Make sure to wear it properly, the talisman is with you!"
…
The shooting location chosen this time is Dian County.
Dian County is located in the southwest corner of China. It is remote, far away from the country's political, economic and cultural centers. It has an underdeveloped economy and transportation. It is a mountainous county town inhabited by ethnic minorities.
The topography of Dian County is very peculiar. There are high mountains on both sides of the county seat, all covered with towering forests. The trees are lush and leafy, the gorges are long and the valleys are deep. Some stilt houses stand on cliffs. At the intersection of the two mountains, a waterfall several dozen feet high rushes down, majestic and with amazing roars... If you see this scenery during the day, you can praise it as "beautiful mountains and clear waters, a paradise on earth."
But they came at night, and the magnificent scenery took on a different flavor.
A crescent moon is embedded in the dark blue sky, and the twinkling stars serve as natural "night lights". The towering ancient trees that reach into the clouds appear eerie, and black shadows with bared fangs and claws are projected on the ground. When the evening breeze blows, the woods rustle like ghost hands clapping. A faint whistle comes from somewhere, and the sound seems particularly mournful in the night, making people unable to control their imaginations of scenes from horror stories. The timid ones present have already broken out in cold sweats.
Although the driver said that we would see the people a few kilometers ahead, the pitch-black night in the mountains would make even a tall and strong man feel timid when he saw them.
Especially when they started walking, the shrill howling sound was getting closer and closer. Looking closely, the branches in the woods were shaking more violently, as if there were living creatures running around in the woods at an incredibly fast speed.
What kind of living thing could appear in such a desolate mountain and wilderness in the middle of the night?
Wolves, jackals, tigers, leopards, or something even more terrifying?
Everyone's heart skipped a beat and they looked a little panicked. One by one, they all held the amulets in their hands and muttered something.
"May the Infinite Heavenly Venerable bless you, may the Infinite Heavenly Venerable bless you..."
"Amitabha, may Buddha bless you..."
"May the merciful Guanyin bless you. I will burn incense for you when we get back..."
"Mazu, I am willing to be a vegetarian for a month and pray for a smooth journey..."
Humans are accustomed to praying to gods when they encounter difficult problems that are difficult to solve. Jing Cheng has long been accustomed to it and did not think it was a big deal. However, he has a keen hearing. When everyone was praying to the "gods" in a low voice, he heard someone read out a very familiar title, which made him unable to help but move closer to the other person to hear it clearly.
Director Zhao clenched his hands tightly together, the veins on the back of his hands were about to pop out, and he whispered devoutly: "Master Jing Tian, if you are in heaven, please bless the believers to pass safely..."
Jing Cheng: ???

The author has something to say:
Master Jingtian: Hello, I’m here. Is there anything I can help you with?
ps: Because Ye Jiming is written later, there are some bugs in the previous introduction of him that need to be corrected.
