Chapter 035 Chapter 35
“Congratulations to the player for lighting up the achievement [Unexpected Encounter]. Please keep up the good work. The achievement badge can be worn, but only three badges can be worn by a single person.”
meet by chance?
Kaka blinked as she looked at the achievement in front of her, and she took a closer look at the information contained in the achievement.
【Achievement: Unexpected Encounter】
[You meet by chance in a foreign land, and you take a photo of your life for a stranger who you have never met before. Others become the protagonists in your eyes, and you are also the protagonist in the eyes of others. Every encounter in life is a miracle in itself. 】
[Effect of wearing: Goodwill during the journey +5]
Travel kindness! Does this mean that when she continues to travel, it will be easier for her to gain kindness from others?
For example, when you are hitchhiking, asking for directions or getting lost, you will meet people with good intentions, right? This is a good thing. Kaka didn't think too much and quickly put on the badge.
It is still somewhat dangerous for a girl to travel alone, especially because on her [Travel Man], the rewards for missions that go to more famous tourist attractions and big cities are very low, while the rewards for proactively exploring lesser-known attractions, mountains, rivers, and places that most people have never heard of are very high.
The travel mission has been going on for three months now. Kaka did encounter danger at the beginning. At that time, she was not very experienced and she only brought clothes and skirts that she brought with her friends. As a result, when she was walking back to the hotel through the alley at night, she was accosted by a drunk man. Fortunately, the system provided emergency protection for players and she was spared from harm.
Kaka became more cautious in the subsequent missions. She wore a sprint jacket, a hiking bag, cross-country boots, and even a mask and sunglasses. In short, she wanted to look less "feminine". At the same time, she made up her mind to exchange her limited mission rewards for travel courses.
From outdoor survival in various environments to women's self-defense and close combat, learning various dialects, and strategies for bargaining.
Every time she completed a new travel mission, she would continue her studies during her short rest time.
After all, the locations of many missions are indeed a bit too remote. The forest farms I have been to before are under the jurisdiction of the state, so I can feel at ease. But if it is a remote place like Kaoshan Village, if it were not for a kind-hearted convoy and the fact that there are many young and strong men in the village, Kaka himself would have to be prepared to evacuate danger at any time.
Kaka, who was wearing the achievement badge, was in a particularly good mood. She brought her own camera and continued to question A Yan and Zhu Jue.
"The photo I just took was of your back. Do you want to take more photos from the front? The sunset is beautiful right now. Can you guys take a few photos for me later?"
"Okay, thank you Kaka, thank you for your help." A Yan smiled and did not refuse.
With such a professional travel aura, the photos Kaka just took are already very beautiful and natural.
There was no way she and Jue Jue could make any moves. They just sat on the big rock on the top of the mountain, leaning against each other and smiling at Kaka.
"Ayan's boyfriend, look at her clothes, it looks like there are bugs in them." Kaka called out, and Zhu Jue's eyes immediately turned to Ayan.
At this moment, Kaka took advantage of the situation and took photos one after another.
One of them tilts his head, the other looks back, the mountain breeze blows their hair, the atmosphere of this photo is simply perfect!
After being tricked so suddenly by Kaka, Ayan and Zhu Jue reacted instantly and burst out laughing. She then took the camera and captured the two of them laughing.
"Oh my, I have lost control of my facial expressions." Ah Yan covered her cheeks with both hands and was still smiling. Zhu Jue hugged her and Kaka's shutter never stopped.
"Okay, look at it, it's so natural. It's so beautiful when it's in a natural state without any deliberate movements." Kaka was speaking from the heart.
This pair of key NPC lovers look great together and are very photogenic. She feels that every frame in her camera can be used as a promotional page, and they are original pictures without any need for Photoshop.
Several people took turns, A Yan held Kaka's camera, and Zhu Jue used A Yan's mobile phone, and the two took pictures of Kaka together.
Kaka leaned against the setting sun, stretched out his arms, and laughed: "This beautiful land is in my hands."
"See? I've got the sunset in my hands."
Ah Yan was so amused by her that he laughed until his stomach hurt, and he tried hard to hold the camera tightly to take a picture of her.
She and Juejue also received training in photography, such as focusing with a mobile phone to find the angle and the horizon. As long as non-professionals remember a few tips from the Internet, they can also take great-looking photos.
Kaka seemed a little reserved at first, but now she seemed to be a very charming and charming person, which made Ayan feel that she was a very interesting person.
After Kaka finished taking the photos, she set up the camera to take time-lapse photos. Ayan and Zhu Jue had nothing to do either, and the sunset was just right at that moment, so they simply sat on the rocks to accompany her. The three of them felt a little safer on the top of the mountain.
"Kaka, have you taken any videos of the places you've been to? You can post them online."
A Yan didn't know when Kaka became such a popular person. She quite liked to watch videos of travel bloggers while eating, including cycling bloggers, RV bloggers, and family travel bloggers on the alpha station. If there were bloggers like Kaka who specialized in visiting remote places with strange names, they would definitely become famous quickly.
"I did take photos, but I never posted them." Kaka shook his head.
Because each mission has a funding budget provided by the mission party, the reward after completing the mission will also be converted into a portion of RMB and become real living expenses. She has been traveling outside to perform missions, so she doesn't really care much about money now.
Kaka has thought about making videos to earn money, but he feels a little awkward when he has to explain why he has to travel to this place and introduce himself to the camera alone.
The most important thing is that if her face appears in the video and someone recognizes her, Kaka will not be able to boldly use the special props produced by the APP in the future.
For example, the magic door in the APP store, the capsule sleeping bag, and many other things are very eye-catching!
And there's that RV with very high redemption requirements, she dreams of exchanging it for one!
"If you don't want to show your face, I think you can shoot it from a first-person perspective, or use a special effects close-up. Nowadays, many people don't show their faces either."
"You can film your journey from a first-person perspective, encounter local NPCs along the way, and trigger quests. If you make it into a game, I think people will watch it."
"But I was just thinking and talking nonsense." Ah Yan thought about it for a while, and then realized that she seemed to be interfering in other people's affairs too much. Afraid that Kaka would feel annoyed, she quickly stopped talking.
Kaka was stunned. She had never thought about the angle that Ayan mentioned.
She rubbed her hands and said, "It seems to work, Yan, you are so creative."
In fact, she has used drones, cameras and mobile phones to record many beautiful sights and interesting things during her travels. It is good to appreciate them by yourself, but it is also nice to share the fun with others.
Ah Yan waved his hands and said, "I just got this idea when I heard you talking about NPC. Maybe you will become a travel card that everyone keeps for long-distance travel in the future."
Kaka's eyes lit up as he listened, "Well, I can make a CG animation myself."
"You can also draw animations." Ah Yan's eyes lit up.
"This is what I studied. Well, although it's average in school, it's still no problem for me to do it myself." Kaka said with a blush.
I chose the major based on emotion when I went to university, but I found it a pit after I got in. After graduation, my parents complained that I couldn't become a teacher or a civil servant because of my crappy major.
"Then editing scripts will be easier for you." Ah Yan said.
Although there is a few years difference in age, there is no generation gap between Ayan and Kaka when they chat, as they are both young people. Kaka immediately respects Ayan and Zhu Jue when he knows that they are freshmen of Binda University.
"A top student, I will have the top two friends in my circle of friends from now on, and I will be more confident when I brag."
After chatting with each other for a while, Ayan received news from the team that they would be returning to the village soon. Kaka also finished the time-lapse photography, and the three of them went down the mountain together.
Kaoshan Village is not big. The entire village, including the Jidao team and Kaka, has less than a hundred people in total.
It’s such a big place, and even though Kaka is a Halo person, after spending a day together, Ayan and Zhu Jue have already confirmed her difference.
"I think it would be nice if all the people I meet in the future are like Kaka."
There is no dramatic plot, no deep hatred in life, no physique that can easily be provoked, but the personality is interesting and can be a friend. There are dozens of such people with Halo!
In Ah Yan's heart, she quietly categorized them according to the people with auras she had met.
An all-round genius, the best in one area, special abilities, and the ability to travel through time and space.
Tan Dabao and Tan Xiaobao are all-round geniuses, while Lin Fan, Xiao Qingnang, Chu Shen and Chu Bingbing are all top-notch in a single area. Ding Ling's identity as a ghost king, Yi Zhi's supernatural powers, and Yuan Ye's dressing system all have extraordinary abilities that are beyond objective reality and are classified as special abilities by Ah Yan.
Ye Ping'an's interstellar live broadcast room came from thousands of years later, Gu Jiasui came from hundreds of years ago, and the five people who seemed to be reborn through infection all involved changes in time and space.
The girl Kaka whom he met in Kaoshan Village seemed to have nothing to do with any of the categories that A Yan had previously classified. A Yan silently created a new file in his heart.
When playing card drawing games in the past, there were card illustrations. Ah Yan thought that the one in his mind could be called the Halo Person Illustration.
If I continue at this pace, I don’t know how many partitions I will have to draw in my mind in my lifetime.
Dinner was a big pot meal in the village. The village chief of the mountain village used to work in a restaurant. He worked hard and saved some money for his retirement. But he was worried about his fellow villagers who lived in the mountains, so he returned to his hometown. The vegetables, grains, chickens and eggs were all freshly slaughtered in the village. The farm dishes were delicious.
The Extreme Team drove in the mountainous area near the mountain village for three days. A Yan originally thought that Kaka would only stay for one day and then leave. The team went down the mountain every day and was able to take her to the foot of the mountain.
However, Kaka seemed to have really started preparing to create a video account. He stayed in the village for a few more days to shoot, with a tripod on the top of the mountain to record the changes in the clouds and mist.
It was not until the extreme team finished the test that Kaka really managed to "slip" down the mountain.
"Our convoy is heading to Bincheng. Kaka, if it's convenient for you, we can drop you off at any station, or you can take another bus to the service area."
Kaka stayed in the village with the team for a few days. During the day, she got to know Ayan very well and ate three meals together. The fellow villagers did not charge her for food because the Jidao team had already covered all the expenses. Adding Kaka was just a matter of adding an extra pair of chopsticks.
Ayan’s team didn’t charge any money, and neither did his fellow villagers. This was not the first time Kaka had encountered such a thing.
When she was on a mission before, especially the time she went to the Northeast Forest Farm in August, the locals were so enthusiastic that they almost scared her away. They killed chickens and stewed mushrooms with them, and took her to eat iron pot stew. She secretly left 500 yuan, but was stopped at the station and her money was torn up and taken back. They also stuffed her with a bag of fresh fruits and took them away.
From then on, Kaka became more careful and left the exact local address and zip code, as well as the contact person's mobile phone information, so that things could be sent over.
If the other party asks you, just say that you will print out the photos and send them to them. Generally, they will not refuse.
As for whether it can reach remote areas? Don't worry about it. The Xiaguo Postal Service will accomplish its mission.
I'm gone now, and you can't return the things I sent you.
Kaka followed the convoy for several days, took photos of the villagers in the mountain village, and took photos of many convoy members at sunrise and sunset on the mountain.
However, the reason why she stayed for a few more days this time was that she wanted to continue to take advantage of the ride and also wanted to see if she could trigger any more tasks or achievements on Ayan and his wife.
Unfortunately, she didn't unlock the second achievement until she left, but the green friendliness of this little couple could be seen to be even stronger.
"Thanks, just drop me off at the Yancheng service area and I'll find a car to go home by myself." Kaka said.
Since wearing the achievement badge, Kaka has become more confident in taking taxis by himself, especially on holidays when the taxis are free. If there are many cars, he can always meet kind people. If not, there is a budget for hitchhiking, and the service area can also contact the passenger bus.
After leaving Kaoshan Village, Kaka's [Travel Man] APP showed that the task was completed, but she had not yet settled the bill. She was going to go home and plan her own career as a video blogger.
At the Yancheng service area, the team refueled and refilled with water. Kaka waved goodbye to everyone. Ayan Zhujue followed the team on the road back to Bincheng, and the natural scenery that he had enjoyed in the mountains for a few days came to an end.
"This vacation passed by so quickly!" Ah Yan looked reluctant as he sat in the car.
Compared to the drama in the Monha Desert, the few days I spent with Kaka in Kaoshan Village were very pleasant.
A lot of time was wasted on the road going back and forth. If you really subtract the time sitting in the car, you won’t have much fun at all!
"When I go back to school, I have to go to class, and then there are only weekends and no long vacations."
October, November, December, Ah Yan counted on his fingers, just wanting to have a holiday.
After hearing what Ah Yan said, the logistics girl let out two desperate howls.
"I don't have any vacation time. You guys still have winter vacation, but I can only wait until the Chinese New Year or take the annual vacation."
For this National Day holiday test activity, choosing to work with five times the salary means giving up the holiday.
After hearing her say this, Ah Yan's mood suddenly became much better. People cannot share the same joys and sorrows. Who made her a college student with winter and summer vacations?
The convoy's return trip was just around the corner from the holiday, so there weren't many cars in the mountainous area, but the closer we got to the coastal city, the more traffic jams there became on the highway.
Although we set out in the morning, most of the troops returned to the coastal city at midnight, and the next day was the last day of the holiday.
Ayan and Juejue naturally did not go back to school. They stayed in a hotel with the team to assure their family and friends that they were safe. After the long journey, they fell asleep as soon as they lay down.
When Ah Yan was sleeping soundly in the hotel, he completely forgot that Chu Bingbing, who was far away in Ningcheng, was going to attend the donation ceremony today.
Ningcheng, Palace Museum.
Chu Bingbing and Gu Jiasui had met at the hotel the afternoon before. In order to participate in today's ceremony, Chu Bingbing went shopping in Ningcheng while traveling and selected several pieces of clothes from high-end Chinese brands to suit today's donation ceremony.
Last night, she dragged Gu Jiasui to the hotel to try on the newly bought clothes several times before choosing a knee-length skirt with pearl mica buttons. Gu Jiasui wore a cross-collared long coat with a green suspender skirt.
Chu Bingbing had been to the Forbidden City once a few days ago, but that time she entered as a normal tourist with a reserved ticket. This time, she followed Mr. Cui through a special passage.
"No one's here. It's too quiet on Monday when the museum is closed." Chu Bingbing didn't know where the palaces around her were, but that didn't stop her from looking around.
Gu Jiasui followed quietly. Her eyes passed through the palace walls, passed the white marble railings, and looked at the small world under the red walls and glazed tiles. Her mood was hard to describe.
"It's very quiet," she said.
Gu Jiasui actually came here secretly once after taking the college entrance examination. It was her first time following the footsteps of tourists and observing with a different perspective. She only walked along the central axis, passing through the Yu Garden and out of the entire palace. If she walked fast, it would take half a day, and if she walked slowly, she could walk through the open area in one day.
Nowadays, people arrange half-day or one-day tourist attractions to visit, but hundreds of years ago, they trapped countless people's lives.
Gu Jiasui saw several wild cats walking freely on the road without any supervision or restraint.
Now, cats are also so comfortable in the palace.
The Forbidden City has a special location for various external ceremonies, press conferences, etc., and they will hold the donation ceremony here.
The donated cultural relic "Handscroll of Zhou Dynasty Emperors", which is worth 360 million yuan at the auction, has enjoyed exclusive top-level protection.
The donation ceremony was kept simple according to Chu Bingbing's request, but it was inevitable to shake hands and talk with the leaders. Chu Bingbing received a special certificate for donation of cultural relics.
At the edge of the exhibition stand, the reporter interviewed a cultural relic expert about the historical significance of the "Handscroll of Zhou Dynasty Emperors", while Gu Jiasui stood beside him with Chu Bingbing.
"This Zhou Dynasty imperial scroll fills in the blanks in XX, especially because it is special because of the well-known Princess Jia Ning."
"Three generations of emperors' books, one generation of Princess Ning, the Jianing style is famous all over the world... More importantly, from the content of this scroll we can prove that this generation of the Zhou Dynasty royal family is rare in history..."
It was difficult for Gu Jiasui to explain her current mood. She turned a deaf ear to all the praises for her past.
I just looked at the yellowed scroll, which seemed so fragile that it would break at the touch. When everything I was so familiar with became a historical existence in people's mouths,
I just feel more and more distant from this world.
No one knows who I am anymore.
No one should know that I am myself.
When she was writing this scroll, she was writing it after her cousin, the emperor. Her uncle and cousin wrote their messages to the emperor's grandson and asked her to write one as well.
After it was finished, the scroll was kept by his cousin. In fact, this was the first time that Gu Jiasui saw the complete version with the handwriting of his little nephew.
After a hundred years, she never expected to meet in this way. Her nephew, the emperor, first thanked his grandfather, then thanked the late emperor, and finally thanked her, his aunt who did not live to see him succeed to the throne. All his sincere feelings were expressed in this volume.
Gu Jiasui's nose was slightly red. This is the meaning of the museum.
Things that have gone through thousands of years may have been commonplace in the past, but many years later, when the world has changed dramatically, they can still allow people today to understand the past, know the past, and experience the same emotions.
"Excuse me, experts, is there any plan to exhibit the Zhou Dynasty Emperors Handscroll in the museum? I believe that after today's news, there must be many cultural relics enthusiasts and history enthusiasts who can't wait to see it."
"On the basis of respecting the wishes of our donors, the Zhou Dynasty Emperors Handscroll will be exhibited as soon as possible after completing the relevant procedures and protection research of cultural relics."
After hearing what the reporter said to the museum, Gu Jiasui thanked Chu Bingbing several times in his heart.
If Chu Bingbing hadn't suddenly invited her over this time, she didn't know how long it would take for the museum to prepare for the exhibition.
When it was on display, I don’t think I would be able to be as calm as I am now and view this scroll in its entirety.
Chu Bingbing brought Gu Jiasui with her. As a young person, she took the initiative to donate a national treasure. Almost everyone was delighted to see her. The experts in the museum shed tears when they saw her, and they all praised her as "a young talent, a pillar of the country, and a good girl."
As a result, Gu Jiasui also received a lot of goodwill. When Chu Bingbing introduced her to a program related to cultural relics, people immediately contacted her to make friends.
It was the first time for the two of them to get into the museum's staff canteen in the Forbidden City. The meal was rich and delicious. They were taken to visit the closed cultural relics restoration area, the palaces that were being repaired and prepared for opening, and so on.
Chu Bingbing saw her own name among the 2024 cultural relics donors in an exhibition area. As she went forward in chronology, she saw many figures who had appeared in literature and history books, patriotic businessmen, and many more unfamiliar names who had donated with their entire families.
Looking at these names, she felt that she was really nothing. After all, this was the system's money, which was equivalent to coming to her for free. But compared with those who actually donated their private antiques, they were the ones who were truly willing to give.
They stayed in the palace until the afternoon, until they had to catch a plane from Ningcheng back to Bincheng.
It was already nine o'clock in the evening when she got off the plane at Bincheng Airport. Gu Jiasui's nanny car came to pick her up. There was no one else in the car, so she thanked Chu Bingbing.
"Bingbing, thank you for taking me to the Forbidden City this time."
Chu Bingbing was so sleepy that she yawned and waved her hands, "I'll take you with me, otherwise I'll be bored, and I'm scared to be alone in this kind of situation. You might as well ask Ayan, she asked me to take you with me."
Hearing this, Gu Jiasui was slightly stunned.
"Ayan asked you to call me?"
Chu Bingbing didn't take it seriously: "Yes, Ah Yan knew it when I was filming this before. But she went on a trip with her boyfriend. On the day before she left, I asked her if she could come back to Ningcheng to participate. She said it was too late and asked me to take you there to get acquainted with people. She said you might be able to recognize people when you are recording the show."
Gu Jiasui knew that she had to prepare in advance to get familiar with the audience before recording the show, and this was also the purpose of her coming.
The program that Sister Lin Lu mentioned is currently being negotiated. Since she has some say in the museum, she will naturally have a better chance.
However, Chu Bingbing said that Ah Yan was there when she bought the scroll, which makes the problem completely different.
Gu Jiasui's eyes were dim as she gave Ayan a painting with calligraphy in her usual handwriting. The handwriting on the painting was also in her own style.
Jia Ning style.
"Did you guys take part in that auction and get a lot of other stuff?" Gu Jiasui asked.
"There are also jewelry and other antiques, about ten pieces in total. Ah Yan's family seems to know a lot about these things. When we met before in my newly bought house, she introduced a lot of things I was not familiar with." Chu Bingbing picked at her nails.
Ah Yan understands these?
Gu Jiasui was extremely clear-headed at this moment. Yes, that time she gave Ayan an ice bracelet, but Ayan did not wear it that day. The next day he said it was too expensive and returned it to her.
This already shows that Ah Yan has a very good eye and can quickly judge the value.
Moreover, Gu Jiasui had also seen the brushes, inks and paints that Ah Yan bought. They were considered to be of extremely high quality today, and were obviously inherited from his family.
Gu Jiasui clasped her fingers together. If Ah Yan understood this, there would be no way he would not recognize her handwriting from the handwriting on the emperor's scroll.
Ah Yan found a reason to ask Chu Bingbing to bring him here. Could it be that she knew something? Or guessed something?
