Chapter 198 Mini-Games (3)
Jiang Xiubai looked up in disbelief. He had only guessed two questions correctly and the time was already up? No, that was way too fast!
Yunxi slowly got off Jiang Xiubai.
Jiang Xiubai stood up from where she stood after the other person got down.
"Congratulations to both teachers for answering two questions correctly within the allotted time. Currently... currently in first place as well." The director stopped abruptly at the end, refraining from blurting out the heartbreaking statement about being firmly in last place.
Yunxi and Jiang Xiubai turned to look at the director at the same time. Was it really necessary to congratulate them on this achievement?
[Haha, the director is the real savior!]
[Jiang Xiubai or Yunxi: No, not at all.]
[I'm suddenly looking forward to seeing the funny expressions on their faces when they're standing on the acupressure mat.]
My emoji collection is about to be restocked.
[It seems Jiang Xiubai still doesn't fully understand the terrifying power of the acupressure mat (silence).]
[It's okay, it's okay, we'll see once he steps on it (watching the show).]
………………
Jiang Xiubai was genuinely unaware of the power of the acupressure mat in front of him. He looked at Yunxi beside him, who was filled with fear and had her brows furrowed, and asked with a puzzled expression, "Is this thing really that scary?"
"What do you mean it's that scary? It really is that scary." Yunxi couldn't help but shudder at the thought of how she felt when she stepped on it last time.
Jiang Xiubai still seemed a little unconvinced; wasn't this a bit of an exaggeration?
"Please take off your slippers and step on it barefoot." The director stood aside, enjoying the spectacle.
The assistant director looked at the acupressure mat with awe. He tried it himself that afternoon, and the intense soreness shot straight from the soles of his feet to the top of his head. Stepping on it made him feel like his whole body was unblocked.
Following the director's instructions, Yunxi and Jiang Xiubai took off their slippers and went upstairs.
The moment his right foot stepped on the ground, Jiang Xiubai sensed something was wrong, but he stubbornly pursed his lips and remained silent.
"It hurts, it hurts, it hurts! It hurts so much, I really can't take it!" Yunxi next to him had already stepped on the acupressure mat with both feet. After a few high kicks, he ran down from the mat.
As soon as Yunxi stepped off the acupressure mat, he plopped down on the carpet, the pained expression on his face still lingering.
Just as Jiang Xiubai was about to follow them down, the voices of Xu Wang and the others suddenly came from the side.
"Sigh, the production team even put up a small sign next to it explaining the effects of the acupressure mat." Xia Yu looked at the inconspicuous blue sign in the corner with a surprised expression.
"Let me see. The acupressure mat has the following effects: it relaxes the muscles in the soles of the feet, promotes blood circulation, improves fatigue and sleep, etc. At the same time, there are many acupoints on the soles of the feet. The acupressure mat can stimulate these acupoints. These acupoints on the soles of the feet are connected to many organs in the body, including the Yongquan acupoint, which nourishes the kidneys..." Xu Wang read the contents marked on the small blue sign briefly.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiubai slightly raised her foot and then lowered it again. Kidney?
Yunxi looked at Jiang Xiubai, who had been standing on the acupressure mat for almost 5 minutes, with disbelief on her face. "Aren't you in pain, kid? Do you not have any pain receptors?"
The others noticed this as well and looked at him curiously.
"Jiang Xiubai, aren't you in pain?" Xu Wang picked up an orange that the production team had prepared in advance, peeled it, and ate it with Pei Yanchuan, taking turns eating it.
"No, it hurts." Jiang Xiubai said these two words almost through gritted teeth, but his face remained expressionless.
Looking at Jiang Xiubai's furrowed brows and noticeably stiff body, Xu Wang doubted what she had said.
[Really? I tried it before, and I could only last a few dozen seconds before I couldn't take it anymore.]
[Me too (covers face).]
[Jiang Xiubai seems to be putting on a brave face. You can see he's maintaining the same pose the whole time, with his brows furrowed. When the camera zooms in, I can see sweat dripping from his forehead.]
[Yes, I clearly saw him getting ready to come down, but for some reason, he stopped.]
[You guys think it's because of that passage your wife read aloud, right? (Thinking)]
[I feel it's very likely.]
[kidney? ]
[Jiang Xiubai: Don't worry about it, this is a man's stubbornness.]
[Hahahaha.]
Jiang Xiubai did 10 standard squats on the acupressure mat before getting off.
Yunxi didn't know how many screams she had to make to finish this punishment exercise.
After the two finished their punishments, everyone returned to their seats on the carpet.
The director, still holding the microphone, announced: "Next up is our second game segment tonight, called 'The Test of Composure.'"
"The rules for this game are as follows: it will still be two people per group. One person will sit on the mat provided by the production team and wear a heart rate monitor, while the other person needs to interfere with the other guests according to their instructions. This can be done through language or actions. The first group to break the 120 heart rate barrier will be the losing group, and the punishment will still be 10 squats on a pressure point mat." After the director finished reading the rules, he clapped his hands lightly, and the assistant director immediately placed a futon cushion in front of the guests.
[Director, you really know how to have fun! (Thumbs up)]
[Ahhh, director, I absolutely love you!]
[I only understood the entire rule; the requirements are not limited to language or actions. (Everyone understands, right?)]
[Tonight I'm going to weld myself to this live stream room!]
Count me in!
Xu Wang and the others naturally understood the meaning of the game. They exchanged glances, and for some reason, they all felt a little guilty.
The first pair to perform were Xia Yu and Hou Yunqi.
Hou Yunqi sat cross-legged on the futon cushion with his eyes closed. His initial heart rate was 80, which was very stable.
Xia Yu is waiting for instructions.
"Why don't you go and call him 'husband' first?" Yunxi took the initiative.
Xu Wang and Qin Huai both gave him an approving look.
Xia Yu blushed slightly upon hearing this request. She took a deep breath and walked to Hou Yunqi's side: "Husband~"
Under the camera's lens, Hou Yunqi's eyelids visibly twitched, and his heart rate successfully rose from 80 to 100, and was even increasing little by little. It's not hard to see how powerful that "husband" was to him.
"Wow!" Gu Yunlan exclaimed in amazement as she watched the heart rate suddenly jump to three digits.
Yunxi nodded in satisfaction; the result was even better than he had expected.
Xia Yu was also shocked. He knew that Lao Hou's heart rate would definitely rise this time, but he didn't expect it to rise to 100 directly.
[This move is incredibly powerful.]
[Honest man Lao Hou says: This game is both painful and enjoyable.]
