Chapter 42
Xingshi took a short break after lunch, put on some makeup, and started the afternoon shoot.
The six people traveled back to ancient times, and with the help of their abilities, they became the children of officials. In the eyes of the people around them, they looked like long-haired ancient costumes.
The palace banquet is coming soon, and their families attach great importance to it. Some preliminary preparations need to be made, and this work falls on them as children.
The six people each received a task and came to the street one after another. In this link, the guests can form teams of two to complete the family's commission together, and at the same time they can also exchange some contents of letters.
After obtaining the new identity, each of them has a flaw.
Xingshi is a major general, but his identity is fake after all, so his flaw is that he cannot talk or touch any weapons.
The family's mission is to find a unique magic weapon to present to the emperor on the day of the palace banquet.
The flaws are the same as the tasks. At this time, the guests need to find a solution.
Xingshi stuffed the task note into his belt, walked along the street, and soon saw Qi Changyi.
Qi Changyi also saw him. Seeing that there were no guests around him, he asked with a smile: "Do you want to form a team
? " Xingshi looked relaxed : "Well, it's easy to do. What about you?" Qi Changyi said: " I just came to the street. " Xingshi knew what to do. He followed him for a few steps and saw a small stall selling jewelry on the roadside. He picked up a jade hairpin and grabbed Qi Changyi's wrist. Qi Changyi stopped in surprise. Before he could speak, he felt something stuffed in his palm. He looked down and fell silent. Two PDs: "?" Director's team: "???" The staff nearby was stunned for a few seconds and picked up the loudspeaker hesitantly: "Qi Changyi, out." Qi Changyi: "..." Xingshi waved to him without any psychological burden and happily left him and left. The director's team was still thinking about whether to call a halt first or let the PD take a photo of Qi Changyi's reaction as a behind-the-scenes feature, when he turned a corner and met Yan Feng. In two minutes, he sent Yan Feng away in the same way. The director's team called a pause. It was Xiao Qin's first time to be an assistant to an artist, and he did a good job. He took the opportunity to bring him a cold drink and used a small electric fan to blow air for him. Xingshi took a few sips of the cold drink and looked at the director innocently. Director Jiang said helplessly: "Xiaoshi, this is not how it works." Xingshi was confused: "Ah? Can't it? Isn't this rule used to eliminate people?" Director Jiang swallowed a mouthful of blood, thinking that if you were given another ten minutes, you could send everyone away, so what would they shoot? He then patiently explained that guests cannot be forced in like this, and can only be guided to step into the pit. Xingshi thought about it and said: "This should be easy." Director Jiang immediately changed his words: "You can't eliminate people today." With an order, the actors returned to their original positions. Qi Changyi met Xingshi again on the street and looked at each other with a smile. Since they met, Xingshi's personality was somewhat different from the rumors he had heard. But when they started to do something, they could be compared. He asked again, "Do you want to form a team?" Xingshi nodded in agreement, "Okay." Qi Changyi asked as they walked, "Shall we exchange some information?" Xingshi was holding a letter from an alien and looked at him, "Okay." Qi Changyi could guess that Xingshi was eliminating people because he probably got a separate commission. He wanted to see how he played and said, "My letter mentioned a palace maid." Xingshi said, "Oh, I don't have this information. I mentioned a eunuch named Xiaoshun. What's the name of your palace maid?" Qi Changyi was not sure if he was telling the truth and looked at him. Xingshi looked harmless and turned the tables: "Can't you tell me? Could it be that your letter is different from ours?" Qi Changyi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, thinking that you are really good at splashing dirty water. Xingshi naturally knew that he was exposed, but he didn't need to care so much when recording a variety show. Now it has been reshot, how can he pretend not to know. Qi Changyi told the truth: "Her name is Cuizhu." The two of them only exchanged this information and started to do the task. They found the relevant NPC through clues and purchased the items designated by the family. Due to the existence of a broken charm, some words needed to be avoided during the negotiation process, but fortunately it was smooth overall. The rest of the people also completed their tasks one after another, signaling the NPC to pack them up and take them home to report. Afterwards, they sat together for the second round of information sharing. Xingshi relied on their words to guess a related piece of information and successfully got away with it. The afternoon shoot ends here. Tomorrow's palace banquet will be filmed in a different location. Xingshi had just finished removing her makeup when she saw Yan Feng and his assistant hurriedly walking out and shouted, "Brother Feng, do you want to have dinner together tonight?" Yan Feng said, "No, I have to run an announcement." Xingshi reminded, "You have to get up early to put on makeup tomorrow." Yan Feng said without even turning his head, "You can come back." Xingshi watched him walk away and looked at Fu Xiuning, "Is he always so dedicated?" Fu Xiuning nodded, "He has basically never rested since his debut, and his schedule is full later." The implication is that Xingshi will have to take on work if he wants to see him in the future. Xing Shi didn't want to make an appointment, and asked, "Will he die suddenly if he works so hard?" Although Fu Xiu Ning wanted to continue to enslave the other party, he thought it was more important to dismantle the system, so he said, "I will warn his agent."
When they turned to Tianxing, they got up early and changed into ancient costumes again.
Due to cost considerations, the palace banquet was the same as yesterday's street scene, not as solemn and complicated as in movies and TV dramas, but everything was kept simple. The location was not a proper palace, but a larger house.
At this moment, the banquet has not officially started yet, giving the ability users time to collect clues and find clients.
Yan Feng arrived at the film and television city in the morning.
He slept on the way and drank a cup of coffee after getting off the car. He seemed to be in good spirits.
He was eliminated by Xingshi yesterday, and said to the system: "Xingshi probably got a special commission. I have to send him away and let him know who is the boss."
The system agreed skillfully: "Yes, when the variety show is broadcast, fans will see the boss's highlight moment!"
Yan Feng said "hmm" with a little satisfaction. After this round of search was over, everyone gathered together to share intelligence, and he took the initiative to ask: "Did Xingshi find anything?"
Xingshi said: "I know There is a maid named Cuizhu, she works in the prince's palace. As for the other people mentioned in the letter, their specific locations are not clear yet. "
Wen Zixin said: "Yes, I also found out about Cuizhu. I should be able to find out about the client by finding her. She likes to wear green clothes... well..."
Yuan Xinyu couldn't help but joked: "The word clothes means hot mouth, right?"
Everyone couldn't help laughing, and guessed that her disgrace was related to this.
Yan Feng glanced at Xingshi in laughter, thinking that maybe he guessed wrong, Xingshi didn't get a special commission?
Xingshi received his gaze and continued, "I also heard that the client likes to read books, maybe we can find some useful clues. Is there a library in the palace in the direction that Brother Feng is searching?"
Yan Feng was still thinking about his suspicion, and for a moment he thought, "Yes, but I didn't see any books."
The staff said, "Yan Feng, out."
Yan Feng: "!"
His identity is the talented youngest son of the prime minister's mansion, and playing chess, calligraphy and painting are all taboos.
This kid deliberately cheated him!
He ordered in his mind unhappily, "Move him to No. 15 for me!"
The system said, "Okay."
It hurriedly coaxed people, "It's all because the boss was too tired these days, and he took advantage of it. If the boss was in better condition, there would be nothing for him!"
Yan Feng reluctantly felt comfortable and went to the waiting area.
The others didn't expect that there would be no one in the first round of discussion today.
Yuan Xinyu and his team were far away yesterday and didn't know that Xingshi had been called to a halt, but after this incident, they all became suspicious of him: "You two were on a mission together before, right?"
Xingshi originally wanted to lay a few rings, but he was fooled as soon as he started, and innocently said, "No."
Qi Changyi interrupted: "He was with me."
Yuan Xinyu and his team nodded and temporarily dispelled their doubts.
After sharing the intelligence, several people exchanged directions and searched again.
On the way back, Xingshi saw Wen Zixin and walked back with her. He sighed depressedly: "It's so hot. I should have known not to choose the major general. It would be nice to wear a long robe like Brother Qi and the others, with bare legs inside."
Wen Zixin was amused: "It would be better if I have some experience next time."
Xingshi responded and chatted with her about some new discoveries. Seeing that her attention was on the plot, he fanned himself, commented on the riding suit on his body, turned his head to look at her, and smiled sweetly: "Sister Xin, this dress is beautiful. Is it a Tang suit or a Song suit?"
Wen Zixin was immediately dazzled by his smile, and subconsciously said: "It's a Hanfu."
The staff said: "Wen Zixin, out."
Wen Zixin: "!"
People with special abilities all come from modern society. This kind of topic is within the scope permitted by the rules, in order to make people lose their guard and reveal their true colors unexpectedly.
Wen Zixin was weak-willed and seduced by the beauty of men, and successfully sent herself away, leaving the game in tears.
Yan Feng sat in the waiting area and looked at her, saying, "He must have accepted a special commission."
Wen Zixin pretended to cry and said, "Now I know."
Suddenly, another person was missing. Yuan Xinyu and Lu Fengya were completely suspicious of Xingshi this time.
But the fun part of this game is that you can't vote someone to death, you can only dig a hole for the other party through words or props. Seeing that he was exposed, Qi Changyi told them that Xingshi's weakness was related to weapons.
Yuan Xinyu and Lu Fengya were very confident after hearing this. With three cards to one, wouldn't this be enough to send the other party away?
The answer is no. Xingshi was very alert and didn't fall for it at all. Instead, he looked for an opportunity to get Yuan Xinyu off the game.
As soon as Lu Fengya saw this kind of evildoer, she immediately stopped playing with him, and accelerated the collection of intelligence to preserve her manpower.
When the palace banquet officially began, she was ready to act separately with Qi Changyi to find several suspicious clients to test, in order to complete the commission first.
However, before they separated, they heard a roar in their ears: "Your Majesty!"
The air was silent in an instant, and everyone looked at the source of the sound.
Xingshi stood in the center of the hall, staring straight at the person at the top.
The NPC felt that the surrounding eyes also turned to himself, and asked with a stern expression: "My dear minister, is there something?"
Xingshi said: "My family has presented a treasure. Did the emperor receive it?"
The NPC nodded.
Xingshi threw the floor and said, "Your Majesty, it has another name, it's called a spaceship!"
Qi Changyi and Lu Fengya: "?"
The three people in the waiting area: "???"
The director team: "...are you so reckless?"
But it was very effective.
The game rules require the client to give a response when hearing the key words. The queen was stunned and then exclaimed, and the wine glass in her hand fell to the ground.
Xingshi locked onto her directly.
Lu Fengya came back to her senses and looked at the people around her, and suddenly realized that she was hallucinating: "You are talking about the spaceship, right? Isn't our background in ancient times?"
Qi Changyi also wanted to know the reason, but that was not the point.
He said, "He has found someone, we have to hurry up."
Lu Fengya suddenly became serious: "Okay."
Unfortunately, they still couldn't be faster than Xingshi, and he got there first.
The two letters set up by the program team in each episode are related, and this time is no exception. @Qi
Changyi The commission letter they received was from the Crown Princess. She recently felt that her husband was very strange and seemed to be plotting something big. He went to the harem every day and was very close to Cuizhu, a maid in the East Palace.
Qi Changyi and his team initially guessed that "he had sex with the emperor's concubine" or "secretly prepared gifts to surprise people" or even "forced the palace to rebel." As a result, they followed the clues and found that he had a strange disease that prevented him from opening his teeth, and he could get the recipe for the cure from the queen.
The Xingshi line is another way to unfold.
His commission letter came from the alien queen. Her son has half alien blood. They reach adulthood later than on Earth. Now that her son is about to reach adulthood, he has health problems. She is also a little tired of the intrigues in the palace. She is hesitating between "suppressing her son's alien blood" and "bringing her husband, son and daughter-in-law home." Xingshi's victory means that she has chosen to go home.
When a paper spaceship was brought out, everyone was fascinated and secretly said that the program group knew how to play.
Then, they watched the queen happily take her family on the spaceship. The emperor and his people were also very happy, thinking that they were going to become immortals.
Yuan Xinyu and others who were watching: "..."
As expected, the heretics won, and things would be irreversible.
But this time it was too irreversible! What the hell is a spaceship!
They just felt they didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and looked at the program crew in silence.
The program crew was actually a little speechless, too. They thought they could shoot for a while longer, but Xingshi turned on the elimination mode right from the start today, and they got through it so smoothly.
The director thought back to the footage he had shot, and felt it should be enough, so he started the next segment.
The six guests changed back into modern clothes and divided into two groups. The four resident guests returned to the conference room to shoot the meeting scene, briefly summarizing the events of this time, and then each shot a dream video to pave the way for the next episode.
Qi Changyi and Xingshi conducted solo interviews one after another.
As it got dark, the director announced the end of work, and everyone cheered.
The four resident guests were very happy.
They had more filming tasks to do, and if they couldn't finish it today, they would have to continue tomorrow. Who knew that Xingshi would do this and they could finish work early.
Several people had already added Xingshi's WeChat, so they looked at him friendly and said that they would get together when they were free in the future.
Yan Feng was also very satisfied with this new little brother, and reluctantly didn't bother with him about eliminating him, and praised him: "You are not bad."
Xingshi humbly acknowledged and asked: "Brother Feng, are you going to have dinner today?"
Yan Feng said lightly: "Today is fine."
Xingshi said: "Not busy?"
Yan Feng said: "Well, no need to rush."
But tomorrow suddenly has an extra day, can I take a temporary notice? Every bit of money I can make is a bit of money.
While thinking about it, he followed them to the restaurant.
The next day, Xingshi and Fu Xiuning went downstairs to eat. When he looked up, he saw him coming out of the elevator opposite with a suitcase.
Xingshi raised his eyebrows: "Brother Feng, are you leaving so early?"
Yan Feng said: "Yes, I changed the visa last night." Xingshi
asked casually: "Do you want to have breakfast?"
Yan Feng said: "At the airport."
He nodded to them, took a last look at Fu Xiuning, turned around and left with the suitcase.
Make money, start a company as capital, recruit younger brothers to work for him, train and conquer Fu Xiuning... A beautiful tomorrow is waving to him.
He just felt full of energy and got on the car with high morale.
Xingshi watched the other person disappear and made an evaluation in his heart.
Arrogant, too much for face, seems a bit stingy, and has not spent a penny in the few days they have been together.
Moreover, he has an inexplicable self-confidence, as if he has his own set of theories and systems, which can be logically self-consistent at any time. Xingshi's occasional provocations are useless.
The most important thing is that he sees that Fu Xiuning treats him so specially and doesn't take it to heart at all.
It seems that I have to ask Fu Xiuning for more specific information.
Xingshi got the food, followed Fu Xiuning to find a seat and sat down, looking at the person opposite.
Fu Xiuning picked up the cutlery and raised his eyes: "What's up?"
Xingshi said: "Nothing, just looking at you."
Fu Xiuning looked at him and asked: "Thinking about Yan Feng?"
Xingshi said: "Forget it, he is so diligent, it makes me feel embarrassed. Are other artists in the company so busy?"
Fu Xiuning knew that he was asking about the other two hosts, and said: "Almost, many are filming in the crew." Xingshi understood
that the other two were in the crew, and only Yan Feng's work was more fragmented, so he could come to meet.
He sighed: "Sure enough, they are all very diligent."
Fu Xiuning said: "Your daily training is not easy either."
He said: "Yan Feng has been busy for too long, it's time to rest for a while."
Xingshi knew that this meant to create an opportunity for him, and nodded.
The system finally waited until he finished his work and said, "Why are you talking about Yan Feng? Let's talk about your bet~"
Xingshi said, "No bet."
The system chuckled and said, "Will it work if you don't make a bet? Your brother won't let you go, will he?"
Xingshi's heart skipped a beat, and before he could remedy it, he heard Fu Xiuning continue, "He was selected from a talent show, and his business ability is okay. How about letting him take time to give you a lesson and share his experience?"
Xingshi didn't hear the notification sound of the favorability value, and knew that Fu Xiuning was restrained this time, so he told the system to shut up and said, "Okay."
Fu Xiuning said "hmm", and the two people's eyes met in the air for a moment, and then they looked away.
They knew each other well.
Xing Shi was willing to use "arbitrary request" as a bet, which proved that he didn't mind using extraordinary means to circumvent the system's surveillance.
Fu Xiuning naturally understood what he meant, but he also knew that both of them were very hesitant.
Because... can the words of the system really be trusted?
Many apps claim that they will not collect users' personal information, but aren't they still collecting it secretly?
After all, they haven't been forced to that point yet, so they have to consider this method carefully. After
the two finished their meal, Qi Changyi had just woken up, and he quickly ate something and followed them to the airport.
After returning to City Z, life returned to its original rhythm.
Fu Xiuning talked to Yan Feng's agent and learned that many of Yan Feng's jobs were arranged in advance and the contract had been signed. Turning it down would be a breach of contract.
What can be done now is not to take new work and wait for the other party to finish this round before taking a break.
Fu Xiuning calculated the time and found that when Yan Feng was done, the other hosts should have finished their work and returned. For a moment, he wanted to let this beast continue to work.
But he was just thinking about it and still maintained the original plan.
As a result, the plan could not keep up with the changes.
A week later, Xingshi was sitting next to Fu Xiuning and playing with his phone when he saw a new hot search term: Yan Feng fainted.
Xingshi: "?"
System: "?"
The system said, "Oh, man, did you faint from exhaustion?"
Fu Xiuning heard this and kept his eyes on the book.
The next moment, Xingshi came over with his phone: "Brother, Yan Feng fainted."
Fu Xiuning looked at his screen and found that it was another indoor variety show. The amount of exercise during the game was too much, and Yan Feng just lay on the ground after a round.
He stood up: "I'm going to make a call."
The Internet fermented quickly. After the fans dug up the brother's schedule for nearly a year, they found that he had basically not rested. They were furious on the spot and began to tear the company apart.
The people in the public relations department of June Culture did not respond immediately after receiving the order from their boss.
Yan Feng woke up not long after being sent to the hospital. After seeing the trend of public opinion on the Internet, he was worried that he would be suspended from work, so he hurriedly posted the chat records between him and his agent, admitting that he took the jobs on his own initiative. The agent had advised him, but he did not agree because he wanted to become the pride of his fans as soon as possible.
The fans were moved to tears and advised him not to work so hard.
The public relations department then stood up and issued a statement on the official website, saying that they have always been concerned about the health of artists and will force Yan Feng to rest for a period of time.
The fans burst into tears again, apologizing and thanking them, asking them to take good care of their brother.
Yan Feng was in a bad mood. He called his agent to talk about continuing to work, but was rejected.
He had no choice but to call Fu Xiuning, and he lowered his voice a little, but it was useless. He immediately became angry.
The system advised him: "Boss, you should rest for a few days. You look fainted."
Yan Feng said: "It was just a faint, don't be surprised."
The system said: "...The doctor also said that you are too tired and asked you to rest more!"
Yan Feng "huh" and refused to admit that it had anything to do with him: "This is all your fault. You found me a weak body!"
System: "..."
To be honest, if you are in such a state, even an iron body can't stand it!
It's lucky that the accident happened more than a year ago, okay?
It apologized: "Sorry, it's our fault."
Yan Feng didn't let it go: "The time has come for you to be used. Give me a solution. Can I take on the work myself?"
The system said: "You cannot sign a contract with a third party without authorization during the contract period, otherwise you will be in breach of contract."
Yan Feng said coldly: "Then I will terminate the contract."
The system did not agree with him to leave Fu Xiuning's company, but did not directly persuade him, but instead quoted a penalty amount.
Yan Feng was silent.
The system said, "Besides, if you leave the company, you will have to find resources on your own, and you won't be able to make that much money."
Yan Feng said angrily, "Then what do you say we should do!"
The system was forced into a corner, and suddenly remembered someone, so it diverted his attention: "Why don't you contact Xingshi? He has a good relationship with the boss, maybe he can help you speak up?"
Yan Feng thought it made sense. Xingshi
liked to mute his phone when he went to sleep, and it was the next day when he received the other party's call.
He had to go to class, and said, "Brother Feng, can you be discharged from the hospital? How about we go back to City Z for a talk?"
Yan Feng did not refuse. Anyway, he was free now and had plenty of time, so he said, "I'll go back in the evening and go directly to the company then."
Xingshi hung up the phone, and met the other party in the restaurant after class in the evening.
It was also fate that he chose the seat where Yu Shu sat.
Xingshi walked over and sat down. When he learned that he wanted him to persuade Fu Xiuning, he said, "No, you have to give me a reasonable reason."
Yan Feng said, "The best reason is that I'm fine now!"
Xingshi said, "But the doctor didn't say that."
Yan Feng was anxious in his heart, but he remained calm on the surface: "He just told me to pay attention to rest and I just need to take less work."
Xingshi looked at him quietly, and spoke after a few seconds, with a sad tone: "Brother Feng, I fell in love with you at first sight. Therefore, I treat you as my elder brother. I hope you are well and I also hope that you can occasionally... just occasionally tell me the truth. You are rich and famous, and you are still so young. The future is endless. Why do you have to work so hard? "
Yan Feng said, "Young people need to work hard."
Xing Shi said, "Anyway, if you don't tell the truth, I won't help you. And I can promise you that no matter what your truth is, I will keep it a secret for you and won't tell anyone else."
Yan Feng fell silent.
Xing Shi looked at him, wondering if he could understand his thoughts this time.
The two looked at each other silently for half a minute.
Yan Feng took a deep breath and said lightly, "Okay." Xing Shi
perked up and looked at each other encouragingly.
Yan Feng looked around at the people, moved closer and asked seriously, "Are you sure you won't tell anyone?"
Xing Shi nodded seriously.
Yan Feng said, "Okay, then answer me a question."
Xing Shi said cheerfully, "Ask me."
Yan Feng paused for a word, "Do you have a dream?"
Star Times: "?"
System: "..."
