Chapter 230 The name Baolong is more effective than anyone else's.
Linda is a television presenter.
While others were traveling, she had to endure the hardship of traveling to inland regions to record a program.
This is a program that introduces people and their geography, traveling around the world. Now, only the final filming location remains: the Congo.
The seven members of the production crew sat in a crowded van, their backsides aching from the bumpy ride.
"Everyone, once we arrive in Congo, we'll go to participate in an event. The event's investors have already booked a hotel for us, so we can go to the hotel after the event."
Looking at the upcoming schedule, Linda realized that as a well-known international host from China, participating in the event was just a side activity, a way to relax during the recording of the program.
The most important thing is the recording of the program, but because it is overseas, some filming needs to rely on the local official background, which is why this event came about.
The event was harmless for Linda, as she had participated in countless similar events; however, this one was somewhat physically tiring.
After all, they had been traveling for a long time and had to participate in activities, so they were really tired.
In particular, this stretch of road was all dirt and muddy, with stones bumping against the surface, making the ride quite bumpy.
Linda can swear that this was absolutely the bumpiest road she had ever traveled on and the most shaky car she had ever been in; for someone prone to motion sickness, it was incredibly painful.
Fortunately, about half an hour later, they finally arrived at their destination. Linda got off the car first, followed by the photographer and other staff.
The driver took them directly to the event location, so when they got out of the car, Linda and the others saw a crowd of enthusiastic people all around them.
"This event was really lively."
One of the staff members in the group touched his buttocks and laughed.
"Judging by the time, the event is about to start. Is no one from the whistleblower group coming to pick us up?"
Linda glanced at the time, then subconsciously looked around. Seeing all the dark figures around her, she felt a sudden sense of insignificance.
She wasn't very tall, only about 1.6 meters, which made her look quite small among the crowd who were generally 1.7 meters tall.
"Wow……"
Seemingly noticing Linda and her group's arrival, the locals screamed and turned their gazes toward Linda. Under the intense scrutiny of so many eyes, the seven people's expressions changed slightly.
For some reason, they always felt that these people were looking at them with a very unbridled gaze.
"ah……"
It started with a scream, followed by a deafening roar of screams, as if they had seen an idol, with countless locals shouting hysterically.
While shouting, it approached Linda and the others, making them, who had just caught their breath, feel uneasy.
Before long, Linda and her six companions were completely surrounded. Their voices were quickly drowned out by shouts, and their figures were also swallowed up along with them.
There were just too many people, and the locals seemed to see Linda and her companions as if they were some rare creatures. After all, their different skin color naturally made them look strange.
However, this novelty, if taken to excess, can lead to disaster. Linda clearly realized this and desperately tried to break free from the crowd.
However, the crowd completely ignored their shouts and struggles, and a steady stream of people continued to surge towards them. If this continued, a stampede would inevitably occur sooner or later.
In a more serious scenario, the group could be crushed.
"Linda, I... I can't breathe. These people are so strong!"
"Think of something quickly, or we'll be crushed to death."
"Why are these people crowding towards us? We're not celebrities."
The group spoke with difficulty, and those who had been together had long since been separated due to the crowd.
Linda wanted to reply to these people, but the crowd was so dense that her legs were lifted up, and her body was no longer under her control.
"A lot more people walked towards us."
Just then, his companion exclaimed, bringing bad news: there were too many people participating in the event, and more and more people were discovering the situation and running towards them.
Once these people gathered around, that was the real disaster. Some of their companions were already struggling and were sending out faint cries for help.
what to do?
Linda's mind went blank. She racked her brains for a solution, and finally, an idea struck her. She shouted:
"Don't come any closer! The dragon is my friend, I'm the dragon's friend..."
Gaa.
The sudden cessation of the noise made the entire activity center instantly quiet.
"dragon?"
Some people looked at Linda in surprise, their eyes filled with disbelief.
"dragon!"
Then came a tsunami-like sound, and countless locals retreated, leaving enough space for Linda and the others.
However, their gazes remained fixed on Linda, their eyes becoming very excited.
"This is a friend of the dragon."
Someone shouted loudly; his voice wasn't loud, but it drowned out everyone else's voices and stirred everyone's emotions.
"Why do these people get so excited when they hear the name 'dragon'?"
One of the staff members looked at the excited but hesitant crowd in front of him with a puzzled expression.
The others remained silent, staring in astonishment at the scene before them.
Cheers, shouts of joy, dancing and singing filled the air; everyone's movements were so cheerful, as if seeing a dragon was an exceptionally happy event.
Linda was equally surprised. In her haste, she claimed to be Long's friend, even though she had only met him a few times. She never imagined that Long had such a great influence abroad!
So much so that when these people heard the name of the dragon, even the way they looked at them became respectful.
Yes, show respect.
It was somewhat unbelievable, but the facts were undeniable, and Linda had no choice but to believe it.
Suddenly.
She noticed children squeezing through the crowd, holding CDs in their hands, a sight that caught Linda's attention.
Linda took a step forward, but the reactions of the people she met made her truly appreciate the respect these locals had for the dragon.
Those who had been pushing and shoving, as if trying to flatten them, now took a half-step back in unison when they saw her move forward.
Only the children seemed unaware of what was happening, and continued to laugh.
Seeing this, Linda gave everyone an awkward smile and went to the child. The child was not at all unfamiliar with her and instead ran up to Linda.
Linda looked at the disc in the other person's hand, picked it up and examined it closely, and was shocked.
"Perhaps that's the reason."
Seeing that Linda was very interested in the CD in her hand, the children happily handed it to her. Linda took the CD and handed it to her companions behind her, gesturing for them to look at it.
The companions all looked at the disc in unison, and when they saw the familiar figure on the disc, they all felt a chill run down their spines.
