Chapter 71 Chapter 71 Bai Qingqing: Bai Muning, come with mom...
"Missing..."
Bai Qingqing's fingers on her belly moved subconsciously, and she flipped back to the top of the file to look at the birth dates of the mother and daughter.
In the background information, if we ignore the speculations and guidance given to the guests by the program team, the basic information they collected is still credible.
According to the birth time of Xiulan and Xiaoyu, this daughter Xiaoyu is really missing...
The timeline matches reality, just three months ago.
Ao Teng was sitting on the other side of the nanny car working. When he saw his niece's fingers slowly tapping again with her little brows furrowed, he knew that she was thinking about something again.
"What's wrong? Is the role you got this time difficult to play?"
Bai Qingqing slowly shook her head: "No, I just didn't expect to see ghost soldiers borrowing the road in this world."
But this is a fictional world, and nothing is impossible.
Although the events of Jilin Village were not written in the original novel, Tiandao changed the plot according to her and modified the corresponding details of the small world, so it is not surprising that the ghost soldiers would appear to pass through.
Ao Teng: "Yin Bing borrowed the road? What does that mean? Borrowed what road?"
Bai Qingqing sat up and explained to him, "There are three situations. One is that the soldiers who fought in the past died with strong obsessions and still remain in the world, and are seen by the living people now;
Second, there is a disaster in the world, too many people die, and the ghost soldiers go to the upper world to lead the souls; third, there are factional disputes in the lower world and the ghost soldiers fight..."
She laughed and shook her head, clearly not convinced that such a thing would happen in this variety show copy:
"No matter which case it is, the conditions for its formation are very strict and it won't just happen."
Even more so, a living child should not be taken away.
The personal information provided by the program team is a personal introduction of less than 400 words for single mother Xiulan, which mainly describes the birth year, approximate month and time of the mother and daughter.
Xiulan is 38 years old this year. She has a low level of education and only studied up to junior high school. After getting married, she lived in Tongze County for a few years and worked as a handyman for a tailor shop in the county. When her child was six years old, her husband died unexpectedly.
After her husband died, Xiulan took her daughter Xiaoyu back to her hometown, Jilin Village, and opened a clothing store. Three months ago, Xiaoyu disappeared. She called the police, visited the ancestral temple to ask the ancestors, and tried everything, but she couldn't find any news about the child.
A famous fortune teller in Tongze County said that Xiaoyu was taken away by ghost soldiers who were passing through the county, and even if she was found, she would be a corpse.
Of course, the police would not believe the rumors of ghost soldiers passing through the village when investigating the case. They investigated strangers entering and leaving the small village of Jilin and suspected that Xiaoyu had been abducted.
But there is not a single camera in the entire Jilin Village. Ever since the news of the evil soldiers passing through the village spread, every household has closed their doors at night and stayed inside.
Xiaoyu disappeared at night, and no one saw her as a stranger, nor did anyone see where she went.
The task of this issue is to find Xiaoyu and solve the mystery of the ghost soldiers borrowing the road.
The identity card that Luo He drew for her was the child's missing mother, Xiulan.
When Bai Qingqing arrived at the program crew, except for Bai Muning and Bai Songxu, the other three had already arrived.
It was still the same group of people. Chen Ruihao was the first to come forward. He stood beside her enthusiastically, bowed and called out, "Master Qingqing."
Bai Qingqing's eyes fell on his clenched fists.
Chen Ruihao immediately put down his hand and smiled, and glanced at Zan Fang who was silent beside him: "I learned this from Taoist Master Zan, doesn't it fit the atmosphere of our show?"
Zan Fang nodded to Bai Qingqing.
Bai Qingqing didn't want to pour cold water on him, she nodded and said, "Yes, there is."
Chen Ruihao was even happier and handed her his ID card. "There are no groups this time. I am the first villager to see the ghost soldiers borrowing the road. Taoist Zan is a folk photographer."
Pu Yueling raised her hand and introduced herself with a smile: "I am a fortune teller!"
Bai Qingqing: "Mother, Xiulan."
"Oh! You play the mother!" Chen Ruihao shouted, then lowered his voice and whispered to Bai Qingqing: "I saw that the timeline of this episode is 25 years in our reality. Is there really a child missing in this episode?"
The appearance and experience of Chen Yan in the first episode, and the campus suicide site in the second episode, made Chen Ruihao begin to believe in the authenticity of the material selected by the program team in each episode.
Pu Yueling leaned over and said faintly, "I told you, I can sense that there is really a missing child... but you don't believe it."
"But I calculated in advance, and the child is still alive." Pu Yueling looked at Bai Qingqing.
Bai Qingqing didn't say anything.
The door of the preparation room was pushed open at the right time, and Bai Muning and Bai Songxu arrived. They were stunned to see three people gathered together and talking intimately.
Pu Yueling and Chen Rui greeted them happily, and then rushed up to ask about their identities.
Bai Songxu stared at Bai Qingqing and replied, "I am the one who guards the ancestral hall."
Bai Mu Ning: "I am the missing child, Xiaoyu."
Pu Yueling: “…”
Chen Ruihao: "..."
Bai Qingqing raised her eyes, looked at Bai Muning, and frowned slightly.
Chen Rui's eyes widened, and he said in an exaggerated tone: "Isn't this mission to find the missing Xiaoyu? Why is there an identity card for Xiaoyu..."
The theme of this issue was drawn by Bai Muning. She felt a little uncomfortable when she drew the theme, and after reading the background story and character settings, she felt even more awkward.
Pu Yueling was also surprised that she got this role and looked at her feet: "Mu Ning, how is your foot? Is it better?"
Bai Mu Ning suppressed the discomfort in his heart and smiled at her: "I'm completely fine now."
The makeup in this issue is still very simple. The story is set in a village with simple folk customs. Apart from changing clothes, there is no need to put on makeup, and the hairstyle is also the simplest.
Everyone was about to set off for Tongze County. The journey was long, so the director came early to urge us. When he saw that everyone's makeup was done, he urged everyone to get on the bus.
It is still forty-eight hours, starting from the time you enter the village.
If they pass the customs quickly, the six people will stay in Jilin Village for one night. If they pass the customs slowly, they will have to stay for two nights.
Chen Ruihao was very scared of the theme of this issue. There were already many legends about ghosts and monsters in the countryside, and there were wild graves everywhere. Now there were some ghost soldiers that he had never heard of borrowing the road. He was really afraid of encountering the real thing.
There was no clear grouping in the third episode. As soon as Chen Ruihao got on the car, he still sat next to Bai Qingqing and asked her to take care of herself.
Everyone took a nap during the more than four-hour drive.
At five o'clock in the evening, the bus drove into Tongze County and the "Heart Signal" live broadcast started on time.
The six Follow PDs all started working, pointing their cameras at the guests they were following. Director Wu Weiran picked up a loudspeaker, stood at the front of the car facing everyone, turned on the switch, and tested the sound.
[First! ]
[It’s five o’clock. It opens on time. Come on!]
[Where is my immortal Taoist Zan (rubbing hands excitedly)]
[Oh my god, everyone is dressed so rustic today, hahaha]
[(Sneak peek at my long-term worker’s face while he’s working.jpg)]
Wu Weiran: "Welcome to Tongze County. Please wake up, take off your masks, and take a look at where you will be staying for the next 48 hours."
"From here on, everything you see is your range of activities."
Chen Ruihao and Bai Songxu opened their eyes wide and looked out the bus window.
It gets dark late in June, and it is still light after five o'clock. Passers-by walking or riding the tram on the road turned their heads to look at the all-pink bus with big floral words "Heart Signal" on it.
The two exclaimed: "Such a large range?"
Chen Ruihao: "If there is a mission, I can spend a whole day running around the county just to find the way..."
Bai Songxu: "Director, how far is this place from the village?"
Wu Weiran: "Please be patient, the two of you. It will take more than ten minutes to reach our Jilin Village. During this time, I will read out the tasks for this period to everyone."
[Here he comes, the director is going to finish reading the whole thing in one breath with a borrowed mouth again!]
"Jilin Village is peaceful and tranquil, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. Who would have thought that one year ago today, a mysterious sound of footsteps suddenly entered this quiet little village at midnight.
Every household stayed indoors at night, but three months ago, Xiulan's daughter Xiaoyu from Jilin Village mysteriously disappeared in the middle of the night.
"Please find Xiaoyu and solve the mystery of the team. The time limit is 48 hours. If you can solve the mystery, you will succeed in the challenge!"
Wu Weiran took a breath and changed his hand card:
“Please keep in mind the following three points:
1. The program team only has one amulet, please carry it with you at all times. If it is damaged, please gather with the super walker in time and inform the program team;
2. There is no requirement for team formation in this issue. You can form a team at any time, regardless of your ID card. Team formation is successful when the bracelets are matched.
3. If a single player's heart rate exceeds 180, they will be eliminated immediately;
4. The rules for midway withdrawal are the same as last time. That’s all. Thank you! ”
I originally thought that there would be no requirement to form teams in this episode, meaning that everyone could act individually, but I didn’t expect it to be free team formation.
Chen Rui's heartbeat quickened. He looked at Bai Qingqing, who felt extremely safe, and then at Taoist Zan, who also felt extremely safe, and silently put his hands on the sleeves of both of them...
Chen Ruihao: "Sister Qing, Taoist Zan, please take good care of me this time."
[Oh my god, you really made me laugh to death]
[It feels like a child finding his parents. Can I say that?]
[Although I admit that Bai Qingqing does have a sense of security, there is no need to pair her with Taoist Zan (laughing and crying)]
[Take my Taoist Priest Zan away]
As they were talking, the bus drove into Jilin Village and stopped in front of a group of houses.
By 2025, many villages have been covered with mud-brick houses and beautiful small buildings.
Jilin Village seems to be still alive in the past ten or twenty years, with the image of loess villages in movies and TV dramas. Every household raises chickens or grows vegetables in the front yard. A few local dogs stand by the road, staring at the strange bus motionlessly.
Tiled bungalows are built along the street. There is a thin layer of loess on the cement floor, which stirs up a cloud of dust when the wind blows. Looking further away, you can also see green rice fields.
Several people were driven off the bus by the director. They were stunned when they heard Wu Weiran pointing to the room for them.
Several of them were well-fed and well-educated. Although Chen Ruihao and Pu Yueling's family conditions were not as good as the Bai family's, they were still quite well off and had never been to such a place before.
Except for Zan Fang, who was hunting ghosts and looking at Feng Shui everywhere, and Bai Qingqing, who "grew up in the countryside", everyone frowned at the house they were about to move into that night.
Bai Qingqing also frowned.
In her own world, she mostly took jobs from wealthy people. Even when she went to the countryside to check feng shui, she was well treated and accommodated by the wealthy.
But fortunately, she was not very picky, and she could quickly accept this scene that was far behind the times.
Jilincun's real mother Xiulan is not here now.
From this moment on, she was Xiulan.
Bai Qingqing walked towards Xiulan's home. Halfway through, she turned back and looked at Bai Muning who was still standing under the bus. She shouted to her:
"Xiaoyu, what are you still standing there for? Come home with mom!"
Bai Muning: "..."
Bai Songxu: “!!”
