Yin Chang ignored Shao Junling's unrealistic expectations, exchanged polite glances with Huang Han from a distance, and said to Shao Junling, "Let's go first."
The little guy lowered his head and followed Yin Chang up the mountain path.
It was noon at this time, and the two of them crawled for a long time before they saw some cooking smoke and sparse mountain dwellings.
Yin Chang asked the director beside him, "Is it the front?"
"Yes, it's almost there." The director's words gave him a little hope.
Yin Chang scratched his neckline to breathe, turned to look at Shao Junling, and saw that he didn't show signs of lack of energy or any discomfort, so he started to walk forward.
It took another ten minutes to arrive at the meeting place, an empty flat land, which looked like a gathering square for villagers.
There was a huge old tree in the center of the square, surrounded by flower beds. The two groups of guests who arrived earlier than them were hiding under the tree to enjoy the shade, and Wang Chen and Xue Ziwen were among them. It is estimated that he has just arrived, and he is sweating profusely with a peaked cap to fan himself.
Seeing Shao Junling, Xue Ziwen jumped up excitedly: "Shao Junling!"
Hearing Shao Junling's response, Xue Ziwen desperately waved his two chubby short hands at him: "Shao Junling! I'm here!"
Shao Junling looked at him expressionlessly, but still didn't respond.
Wang Chen patted Xue Ziwen on the back in embarrassment, signaling him not to be so excited.
As a result, Xue Ziwen was slapped by him, and he rushed forward to greet his little friend enthusiastically.
Wang Chen: "..."
Seeing Shao Junling's indifference, Yin Chang quickly patted him and asked him to say hello to his classmates. He also raised his chin to Wang Chen: "Hi, are you here?"
Wang Chen glanced at him with a half-smile, and gave a faint "hmm".
Yin Chang walked under the tree and met another group of guests under the introduction of his manager.
This group is the twins from the athlete's family. The elder brother and father are named Lang, and the younger brother and mother are named Guo. They named them Lang Chizhi and Guo Yiheng, respectively. Although the two brothers are twins, they don't look very much alike. The elder brother looks smaller and is a little shorter than the younger brother, so it is easier to recognize.
When meeting for the first time, both of them behaved very politely.
While chatting, Huang Han and You Luming also came up, followed by the host and other staff of the program group.
Yin Chang saw that he had only reached the fourth group. He remembered that there was another pair of sisters surnamed Qin, who were the two daughters of the director Qin An.
The staff explained to them: "Qin Jingshan and her sister's plane has been delayed, and it is estimated that they will arrive late at night today. We will not wait for them."
Everyone nodded in understanding, and then the staff gave each of them a boxed meal for lunch.
Wang Chen wondered, "Do you just eat here?"
The host came over and asked, "What's the matter, is there a problem?"
The children who came to participate in this program are pampered and pampered, and now they can only squat under the tree and eat boxed lunch in such a deserted village, which makes everyone a little unbearable.
Wang Chen glanced at the crowd and saw that most of them had bitter expressions on their faces. He thought about his seniority here, so he took the initiative to fight for everyone: "There is no place to have a formal meal?"
Seeing that his uncle was outspoken, Xue Ziwen nodded his head again and again to express his dissatisfaction.
The host also held the same boxed lunch as theirs, and he stood there directly, laughing while eating: "Is it hard to eat when you have food? After a while, you will know how happy it is to have a full meal."
Seeing that there was no room for negotiation, Wang Chen pursed his lips and took two symbolic bites.
Xue Ziwen and the twins just ate some food from the lunch box. You Luming, who was only six years old, was the most noisy. Maybe the box lunch was not to her liking. She was crying and clamoring to go home and eat small meals cake.
Huang Han coaxed her to such an extent that he didn't even bother to eat.
In comparison, among so many people, Yin Chang and Shao Junling were the calmest.
I saw the two of them sitting on the edge of the flower bed with their boxed lunch in their hands, eating in silence without arguing or making noise.
But Yin Chang's eating was obviously a bit more gentle, it was obviously just a box lunch, and he ate slowly, as if he was enjoying some kind of French feast. Shao Junling on the side was gobbling it up, and finished the sweeping, and then turned his eyes to look at the large group of staff in front of them.
Yes, the photographers and staff who were following the film were all scattered around, and they continued their work under the scorching sun.
In this comparison, they are much happier.
After the meal, the staff took away the lunch box. The host clapped his hands and walked over, motioning for everyone to stand in a row.
All the cameras were in place, the host cleared his throat and said: "Welcome the four groups of families who have arrived to participate in the first episode of "Super Star Life". I am the host Lao Luo and your temporary acting parent. What we are doing now The place where I live is an extremely ordinary mountain village in Huizhou. I think, if you didn’t participate in this kind of program, with your background, you might not have the opportunity to experience such a life, right?”
He smiled and continued: "In the next three days, I will assign some tasks to you on a regular basis. According to the task completion of each group of guests, you will get different food distributions-this will also be the only one you have in these three days. way of getting food."
Everyone was shocked when they heard the words. After all, the scripts they received only mentioned "experience life", and there were no such strict details.
The host continued mercilessly: "So now, we are going to check everyone's suitcases and ask you to turn in all the food you brought from outside!"
There was a wailing at the scene, and several underage children dragged their suitcases and refused to compromise. The elder brother of the twins even protested outrightly: "This is unreasonable! You are abusing us!"
Xue Ziwen also stomped his feet capriciously: "That's right! I won't record any shitty programs!"
Wang Chen and Huang Han are a bit older and more modest than these children, but they are also a little restless at the moment.
As a result, the host smiled "hehe" and clapped his hands. Suddenly, a group of "special soldiers" in camouflage uniforms appeared behind him.
I don't know if it was an actor pretending to be it or if it was real, but when these burly men approached them, the children were so shocked that their jaws almost dropped.
They didn't expect the show crew to be so frantic in order to force them to obey the rules!
Xue Ziwen, who originally hoped to satisfy his cravings with snacks, now hugged his suitcase and yelled, "Uncle! Uncle!"
The host said: "Give up, Xue Ziwen, don't talk about your uncle, it's useless even if you call your father! Hahahaha..."
Everyone: "..."
Then, under the threat of force, the staff opened the suitcases of all the guests, checked them one by one, and confiscated a lot of snacks such as chocolates, potato chips, small cakes, and Proboscis King.
When You Luming saw that all the cream puffs in his schoolbag had been taken away, he cried even louder.
Yin Chang didn't bring any snacks, only a bottle of mineral water was found. He asked the staff calmly, "Can I drink it now?"
The staff was taken aback by his appearance, and blurted out: "... yes."
Then Yin Chang directly opened the lid and drank slowly.
Shao Junling was also confiscated with a pack of beef jerky. He looked at Yin Chang begging for help. Yin Chang signaled him to calm down, and pointed the mouth of the mineral water bottle at him, asking if he wanted to drink.
Shao Junling shook his head and stood beside him hesitantly.
But maybe it was Yin Chang's calmness that comforted him, and Shao Junling's emotions didn't show much, so among the group of people, the two seemed the calmest.
At this moment, they tilted their heads, watching the chickens and dogs jumping around...
Yin Chang sighed in his heart, and finally understood what the host said to Wang Chen at the beginning.
... It seems that the days are not going well these days.
After collecting the snacks, the host didn't give the guests time to adjust their moods, clapped their hands and said: "Okay, guys, cheer up, we're going to prepare for a competition soon, and the winner or loser of this game will determine who of you can stay 'The best house' here."
Everyone: "???" What? Do you even have to compete for where to live
Still, the competitive twins jumped into character as soon as they heard the game, gearing up excitedly.
I saw the staff coming out from a distance carrying a flag stand, which was placed 50 meters away from them, and three red flags were planted on the stand.
The host pointed to the flag stand and said, "Did you see that flag stand? After a while, whoever gets it first..."
Before he finished speaking, Shao Junling was the first to rush out.
Seeing this, the twin brothers rushed forward not to be outdone.
Xue Ziwen saw that three people ran out, and if he didn't grab the flag, he would lose the flag. He shouted "Uncle" anxiously, and ran forward... Wang Chen saw his chubby body, how could he run as fast as himself, and chased after him .
The host opened his mouth and said, "Wait a minute, I haven't finished the rules yet!" He quickly pointed to the backs of several guests who were still in place and said, "Which group will get the red and blue flags together first?" Whoever returns here has the right to live in the 'best house'!"
Everyone: "..." Damn it!
Yin Chang turned his head and saw a flag stand 50 meters behind them at some point, with three blue flags planted on it.
Because all five people went in the direction of the red flag stand just now, and Huang Han was still holding You Luming with a dazed expression, so there was no one to fight him in the direction behind him. Yin Chang stretched his long legs and ran over with ease to get a blue flag.
When he turned around and came back, he saw one of the twins and Wang Chen running back panting, both of them felt like they had been teased.
Yin Chang held up the flag and waved it to Wang Chen with a smile, Wang Chen was so angry that he almost rolled his eyes—ah, it's all because of Xue Zi asking that idiot!
As for Huang Han, he was still holding You Luming who refused to let go, and he was circling on the spot, looking around, muttering: "There is no flag, there is no flag..."
As a result of the competition, of course Yin Chang and Shao Junling got the first place by luck.
The twin brothers are second, Wang Chen and Xue Ziwen are third.
But the twins were very dissatisfied with the result. They pointed at Shao Junling and complained in unison: "He's rambunctious! He ran away before the host shouted!"
Shao Junling squinted at them, and snorted while holding the two flags.
The twins were so angry that they complained to the host: "He fouled! He fouled! Official games require the referee to whistle before they can start moving."
The host laughed and said, "Then you two saw him running, so you rushed out too..."
Twins: "…"
Not only them, but also Xue Ziwen and Wang Chen...
The staff who had just been watching from the side covered their mouths and laughed.
What the show pursues is variety show effects, not real fairness and fairness. Although the guests did not follow the instructions before acting, the host acquiesced to this ending because everyone's reactions were very interesting just now.
Seeing that the twins were still not convinced, the host smiled and comforted them and said, "Don't worry, although you lost the 'best house', you can still get a better house."
Lang Chizhi asked: "The best is the best. Is there anything better than the best?"
At that time, no one understood the word games played by the program group, until a group of people were led to visit Yin Chang and Shao Junling's house.
It was a dilapidated thatched cottage, which had not been lived in for a long time. It was so empty that there was not even a stool. Once inside, there was only a field of hay covered with a torn sheet, which looked like a bed...
There are still a few places on the ground where the sun shines through the cracks in the roof.
The reason why it is called "the best house" is because there is a door plaque hanging on the entrance yard with these five characters written on it. There are also vertical couplets pasted on the left and right sides, which read: "Take the sky as the cover and the ground as the mat." "This is a humble room, but I am virtuous."
A group of people pointed at the door plaque and laughed wildly: "Hahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!"
Yin Chang: "..." This program group...
However, despite being depressed, Yin Chang had already figured it out when he first arrived at the foot of the mountain—all the rules in this place were set by the program team, and they could only be played by the program team. So he adjusted his mentality as quickly as possible, and calmly accepted the result.
Yin Chang saw that Shao Junling was unhappy, so he led him inside, and comforted him, "It's only three days, it doesn't matter where you live."
Fortunately, this room was probably only used for dry things like straw, not for raising livestock, so there is nothing strange about it.
Yin Chang put the suitcase away, looked around inside and out, and found that there was a simple bathroom next door, where he could go to the toilet, plus a large tank of water for washing...
Yin Chang heaved a sigh of relief, it seems that the program group is not so amazing.
He took out the towel from the suitcase, and went to get some water to wash his face first. Just after climbing the mountain and grabbing the flag, he was sweating all over and felt uncomfortable.
The staff saw that he had finished the work with clean water on his face, and said in surprise: "Yin Chang, don't you wear skin care products and sunscreen?"
"Huh? What are you applying?" Yin Chang asked back, calling Shao Junling over and rubbing it on for him.
"Your skin is so good..." the staff sighed.
After washing their faces, they vaguely heard voices coming from outside the door. Yin Chang went out to have a look and saw Huang Han and You Luming, who were assigned to the next house by the program team. But these two people who didn't grab any flags actually live in a higher class than them - at least the house has a door and the roof is not leaking.
"Hi, we're neighbors now." Huang Han greeted Yin Chang with a wry smile. At this moment, he was listless, and he had long since lost the energy he had when he got out of the car.
"Hello." Yin Chang glanced at the little girl who had no energy to make trouble anymore, and sighed in his heart, it's really not easy being an older brother...
After saying hello, Huang Han carried You Luming into the house.
After resting for half an hour, the program team sent them the first task - to find dinner.
According to the task book, the staff hid eight treasure chests in the village, and each treasure chest contained a dinner, but the types of food were different.
From now on, guests can go out to find treasure chests, and each group can receive up to two dinners. If they find higher-level food in other treasure chests, they are allowed to put other food in it instead.
After being messed up by the program team at noon, no one dared to pick and choose food anymore. After getting the mission statement, everyone started to act immediately.
It took Yin Chang and Shao Junling only five minutes to find the first treasure chest, which contained a sandwich bread and a bottle of milk.
But they found the second one with great difficulty. After twenty minutes, Shao Junling saw a box under the corner of a house.
However, when Shao Junling ran towards that direction, brothers Lang Chizhi and Guo Yiheng also appeared—they were closer to the treasure chest, followed Shao Junling's gaze to locate it, and rushed over there first.
Shao Junling didn't give up and speeded up.
Yin Chang's heart tightened, and he hurried to catch up, only to see Shao Junling and the twin brothers running to the treasure chest almost at the same time.
But there were two people on the opposite side, Shao Junling was alone, and Lang Chizhi stood in front of Shao Junling, successfully covering Guo Yiheng to open the treasure chest and grab the food.
Shao Junling was so angry that he immediately put on a fight pose.
"Shao Junling!" Yin Chang yelled.
Shao Junling didn't seem to hear it, and stared fiercely at the pair of brothers, and the leader, Lang Chizhi, was stunned by his stare. But the youthful nature couldn't bear this kind of provocation, so Lang Chizhi really raised his eyebrows and stared back ferociously.
If Yin Chang hadn't arrived in time to grab Shao Junling, the two would probably have fought in minutes.
"Forget it!" Yin Chang pulled him, and was surprised to find that this kid was quite strong. If Shao Junling hadn't taken the initiative to relax his body, he wouldn't be able to pull him.
Shao Junling glanced at Lang Chi, and the boss followed Yin Chang and turned away in displeasure.
The two finally found another treasure chest, but it turned out that there was only a white steamed bun, an egg and a bottle of water in it, which was probably not wanted by others.
A long time has passed, and it will be too difficult to find a box with food in the future. Yin Chang didn't want to waste any more energy, so he persuaded Shao Junling, "Go back, just eat like this."
Back in the thatched hut, the two of them sat cross-legged on the torn sheets and shared the two bags of poor food.
Yin Chang originally wanted to give Shao Junling milk, eggs and sandwich bread, but Shao Junling shook his head, pushed those things back, grabbed the cold steamed buns and gnawed them.
"...you eat this." Yin Chang insisted on feeding Shao Junling eggs and milk.
"No." Shao Junling shook his head.
"Really don't want it?" Yin Chang knew that this kid was giving way, and he was a little moved. When there is enough food, there is nothing this kid doesn't like to eat.
Shao Junling was also very stubborn, turned his back on it, and said no to it
Yin Chang had an idea: "You only eat steamed buns, you won't grow tall."
Shao Junling was shocked when he heard this.
Yin Chang held the egg and played with it in his hands while persuading him: "You are growing your body now, you still need to eat some milk and eggs to supplement protein. Don't think that it will be okay if you miss a meal. If you miss a meal, you will lose a few millimeters of growth. Adding it up, I guess I will be much shorter than others in the future... "
Before Yin Chang could finish speaking, Shao Junling quickly turned his head and took away the eggs and milk in his hand, but his eyes were still flickering, as if he was worried that Yin Chang didn't have enough to eat.
Yin Chang rubbed his head: "You eat, I'm not hungry."
After the meal, the program team sent them new tasks.
This time, the staff brought them paper and pens and asked them to write a sentence, which could be a message to each other or something they hope to gain through the program. These words will be played in the last episode of the program.
Under the supervision of the staff, the two wrote their messages with their backs to each other.
The staff folded the paper and put it in an envelope, sealed it, and said to Yin Chang: "If your messages to each other are similar, it means that you have a good understanding, and you may receive rewards from the program group at that time."
Yin Chang smiled, and didn't have any hope for this point. Shao Junling was still so young, it was absolutely impossible for him to write the kind of words he wrote.
After writing the message, today's day of shooting is over.
The staff removed the video camera in the bedroom and the radio on their bodies, and let them rest.
There was no light in the thatched hut, so after washing his face and wiping his body, Yin Chang lay down on a bed made of hay to sleep.
Shao Junling also finished washing, lying beside him, playing with hay by himself.
The two of them had nothing to do and couldn't fall asleep for the time being, Yin Chang turned sideways and asked Shao Junling, "Are you feeling bored?"
Shao Junling: "...No."
Yin Chang asked again: "Today... still feel hard?"
Shao Junling: "It's not hard."
Yin Chang recalled that Shao Junling grew up in an orphanage, so he must have suffered a lot. Perhaps such hardship was nothing to him, and he felt a little sad for him.
He found some topics to chat with Shao Junling, but Shao Junling faltered and didn't know how to express himself.
Yin Chang labored to talk to him for a while, then he became a little tired.
The night in the countryside was very quiet. Listening to the calls of katydids outside and feeling the gradually dropping temperature, Yin Chang really felt comfortable.
During his drowsiness, he unconsciously stretched out his hand to explore, found Shao Junling, took him into his arms, and slowly fell asleep.
After a long time, when Yin Chang was completely asleep, Shao Junling suddenly moved, gently raised his brother's hand, got up on tiptoe, and left the room.
There were photographers and staff in the yard watching the night. When they heard the movement, they instinctively chased after them with their cameras on their shoulders.
Shao Junling ran for a while before realizing that there were two people following him, and immediately stopped to look at them.
The staff asked, "It's so late, where are you going?"
In the dark night, Shao Junling's eyes were as bright as wolf cubs, and he looked at the two vigilantly without speaking.
The staff asked: "Is there anything we can do for you? You can tell us."
Probably hearing the kindness in the other party's tone, Shao Junling replied hesitantly, "Looking for something to eat."
The staff member was stunned: "Are you still hungry?"
Shao Junling shook his head: "Find it for brother."
The staff warmed up, and persuaded him in a harmonious voice: "But now those treasure chests are empty."
Shao Junling tilted his head to look in one direction: "There is something else."
The staff and the photographer looked at each other, and said to Shao Junling: "We will accompany you there, otherwise it will not be safe outside... Don't worry, we won't tell your brother."
Shao Junling nodded to the staff member and said, "Come here." Then he looked at the photographer, "Don't follow."
Disliked photographer: "..."
——
[Interlude]
Shao Junling: Didn't find enough food, so nervous! So anxious! (Q︿Q)
No, my brother will starve if he only eats such a small amount, so I have to find a way to find some food for him...
——
After the twins succeeded in robbing the food, Lang Chizhi walked around the house after returning.
Guo Yiheng asked his brother: "What are you doing?"
Lang Chizhi said impatiently: "Didn't you see the look in that kid's eyes just now? He wants to fight with me!"
Guo Yiheng: "He's so young, he can't beat you."
Lang Chizhi: "No! His eyes make me think... he can!"
Guo Yiheng: "You think too much..."
Lang Chizhi: "I didn't! He's very powerful! He's after me!"
Guo Yiheng: "It's okay...he's afraid of his brother, as for the tall and handsome guy, his brother will take care of him."
Lang Chizhi (relaxed): "Well..."
——
When Xue Ziwen saw Shao Junling, he was as enthusiastic as a licking dog, and Wang Chen felt very upset.
I feel like I lost the show before it even started! Why!
He had to get it back from Yin Chang! He wants to be cold in front of Yin Chang!
Yin Chang:? ?
