Chapter 40: forty children
Changze Mountain is one of the largest virgin forests in China, where summers are short and winters are long, and in early September, the soothing and long mountains are already enveloped in golden autumn light.
The little girl in a creamy white knitted skirt stepped on the golden leaves and strode up the mountain.
"Yo-yo-!"
Tian Tian, who arrived one step ahead, saw Yoyo's figure and waved at her happily.
“Tian Tian—!”
Meeting with Tian Tian was like a fortnightly agreement. Although there were spring outings organized by the school in kindergarten, she always played with the teacher.
But after participating in this show, her world seems to be a little bigger.
Tian Tian: "Yo, your new dress is so pretty!"
Yoyo: "Tian Tian, your new braids look good too!"
The two little girls held hands and bragged about each other's business, making each other happy.
On the other hand, Gu Miaomiao is different from the two little girls who are dressed like little princesses. She is like a senior backpacker who comes to the wilderness to survive. She has a professional atmosphere from beginning to end. A world of difference.
The other three boys who came later were also attracted by Gu Miaomiao's professionalism, pointed to her work clothes and camouflage style and said enviously:
"Dad, I love Miu Miu's clothes!"
"I want to dress like Miao Miao, Dad, can you buy me this kind of clothes?"
Gu Qizhou: ...how can she be a little girl inexplicably leading the trend of menswear...
Seeing a group of noisy children, Gu Qizhou gradually became a little lost.
This is the last recording of the show. According to the practice of the previous season, the mothers of the children will be invited to participate in the last episode. This is the consensus when they signed the contract.
Yu Lan had no opinion at the time.
However, seeing the lively and laughing Yoyo and the calm and indifferent Gu Miaomiao, Gu Qizhou was still a little worried.
The program team invited other mothers to come. On the one hand, it was to enhance the warm atmosphere of parent-child harmony, and on the other hand, there was also a little bit of meaning to let the star couple show their love and establish a person, everyone knows it well.
The situation of Yu Lan and other mothers is different.
Why Yu Lan died at the beginning, and why he has almost disappeared in the circle for three years, everyone knows.
Even though he greeted the director in advance, reviewed the game and asked questions, but he knew that the key to the problem was not the show team at all, but Yu Lan who went his own way.
When the news of their marriage was announced, it caused a lot of criticism. Gu Qizhou was going to fight to the end with the media that spread rumors to gain attention, but was stopped by Yu Lan.
"Arguing with them is just talking to elementary school students. Let them talk."
"When I have time to type so many words and scolded people online, I probably dig my feet at home in reality. Seeing that the old lady looks so good and earns a lot of money, my eyes are red from soreness."
After marriage, Yu Lan was busy with fitness and beauty, and went on trips with her sisters from time to time. She lived a busy and fulfilling life, and was not affected by the gossip on the Internet.
But Gu Qizhou does not have such a strong heart as her.
Occasionally catch a glimpse of the unfavorable criticism against Yu Lan, he is not happy, and wants to make up for it, but there is no way to start except money.
This is her first appearance in the public eye after three years.
Gu Qizhou doesn't know whether this is good or bad for her.
He sighed.
"Dad, don't sigh." Yoyo, who was walking in front with her sister hand in hand, heard a sigh and turned back, "Luck will turn bad."
…There are a lot of crooked things at such a young age.
—
The group walked through the golden fallen leaves and came to the film and television city near Changze Mountain.
Changze Mountain is very large, and there are a wide variety of animals hidden in the deep forest. These animals are docile, and some are very aggressive. Without a guide, even the local villagers dare not go too deep.
But the outer circle of the forest is relatively safe.
Even because of the beautiful scenery here, many film crews come here to take pictures, and the local area has developed a part of it as a film and television base, which is also one of the attractions of Changze Mountain.
“…My dears, do you like the scenery of our Changze Mountain?”
Yoyo followed the other children and answered obediently: "Like—!"
“What about Changze Mountain? Not only are the mountains vast and there are a wide variety of plants and animals, but there are also mysterious legends passed down by the local people…”
Hearing this, Yoyo raised her hands excitedly to answer:
"I know I know! It's a monster!"
Director Zhou smiled and nodded:
"Yes, everyone knows that the lion is the king of the grasslands living in the savannah, and the tiger is the king of the forest active in the forest, right?"
"However, from a long time ago, local people have rumored that they have seen lions in the Nagasawa Mountains, and when poachers want to sneak into the forest to hunt game, the lions will There will be protection of other animals."
"So over time, the locals said, this is not an ordinary lion, but a monster."
"It protects the other animals in the forest from bad people, and it is the forest master of this forest."
Yoyo was stunned for a moment, and some images flashed in her mind.
The big lion with golden mane stood in the distance against the light, and the sky at the end of the field of vision was scorched into a poignant crimson red.
His figure is firm and majestic, which reminds Yoyo of the gentle and generous lion in "The Chronicles of Narnia" that she watched with her sister.
The talking lion in her dream was the one Uncle Zhou said... the lord of the forest?
"...However, legends are just legends, no one has ever photographed the legendary lion, and we don't know if there are really monsters in the mountains, so this issue of ours is to explore the long The monster on Zeshan!"
The children who were attracted by the monster cheered.
Director Zhou smiled and directed the staff to enter the venue and continue the process:
"Of course, before that, we have to choose the house that each child will live in. Are you ready to participate in this competition?"
The regular items are here!
Different from the previous episodes, this episode is in the real deep mountains and old forest. After the beatings of the previous episodes, the fathers are very clear about the urine nature of this show group.
The worst house is probably so bad that they can set up tents on the spot and sleep in the wild.
So even Gu Qizhou cheered up and patted Gu Miaomiao on the shoulder:
"Yoyo is unreliable, Miaomiao, come on! Our family depends on you!"
Gu Miaomiao: "...she will cry for you to see when she hears it for three seconds."
However, for the living conditions of the whole family in the next few days, Gu Miaomiao rolled up her sleeves and really prepared to come out on top and earn a big bright and spacious house.
"The rules of the game are very simple - the fathers stand first, and are not allowed to give advice to the children - each child will come to get a chicken feather, after getting the chicken feather, we need to stand on the same root At the starting line, then throw the chicken feathers forward, whoever throws the furthest is the first, do you understand?"
Tian Tian who got the chicken feather was full of question marks, she tried to throw it out with all her strength—
The chicken feathers that were taken off were not affected by her strength, and floated back to her feet.
Tian Tian grimaced: "How can this be thrown away!"
Director Zhou smiled mysteriously: "As long as you stand at the starting line, let the chicken feathers be as far away from the starting line as possible, and any other methods can be used. Use your brains and think about it?"
Yoyou listened carefully to Director Zhou, then turned her head and said to Gu Miaomiao seriously:
"Sister, I'll leave it to you."
Gu Miaomiao: …Are you so confident now
Gu Miaomiao thought for a while: "then help me dig some soil."
Gu Miaomiao buried the chicken feathers given by Zhou Dao into the soil, and then together with Yoyo, pinched and pinched with her four little hands, and soon formed a round ball.
According to the principles of mechanics and aerodynamics, Gu Miaomiao's mud ball rolled gently, and it rolled out of the way.
Director Zhou smiled with relief: "Miaomiao is really smart."
Wang Yoyo took the lead in applauding.
"Miaomiao, you are amazing!"
"How did you think of it! Your ball rolled so far!"
"Uncle Zhou, is this not a violation?"
Faced with Xiaosuo's question, Zhou Dao replied:
"Of course not, this is called the rule of reasonable utilization, which is a very clever idea."
Yoyo looked at the sister who was praised repeatedly by the children and fathers, and she was a little lost for a while.
Sister is so smart...
Sister can do everything, yo yo can't do anything...
You know, it should be a joy to know that my sister is very powerful, but after she was happy for her sister, she felt a little sadness in her heart.
She would be happy to have a smart sister.
But my sister doesn't have a smart sister.
…Does my sister want a smart one too?
Sitting by the lake, Yoyo held her little face, her little eyebrows twitched sadly.
However, before her little emotions were brewing for ten seconds, something suddenly touched her back.
Yoyo and the cameraman turned their heads.
The camera was shocked when I turned around.
—It was a little pelican with a long mouth standing behind Yoyo, tilting its head and looking at her with a strange look.
Suddenly seeing such a pelican, even if the animal was not aggressive, the cameraman was so frightened that his legs were weak.
It is said that the pelican is a creature with a low IQ and is more similar to Erha.
Including but not limited to cats and dogs passing by, and even giraffes three or four in size.
Anyway, it doesn't matter if you can eat it or not, it will contain it first.
For this reason, it has won the title of "Cantonese in the Bird World".
Yoyo blinked, pointed at the pelican excitedly and said to the cameraman:
"Goose!"
This goose didn't kill her!
It's so cute!
The security personnel around have actually seen this little pelican that inexplicably slipped up from the shore, but because the pelican is not yet an adult, it does not have a mouth full of fangs like a big goose , is a relatively mild waterfowl, so there is no obstruction.
Just let the security guard watch and see what the pelican wants to do.
The cameraman was timid and did not dare to move with a bitter face. He just hoped that this little ancestor could cry, maybe shout, so that the security guards would get the pelican away.
But Yoyo is not only not afraid, but also happily touched the long mouth of the pelican:
"Goose, do you want to play with me?"
The pelican did not respond, and a pair of small black bean eyes stared at her persistently.
…This human cub smells a little different from other humans.
…what’s the difference?
He stretched forward generously and whispered:
"I hid this behind Uncle Zhou's back. If you, you are willing to be nice to me, I can share with you..."
Before he finished speaking, the pelican suddenly opened its mouth, the upper beak and the lower beak like a pair of chopsticks—
He caught Yoyo's little head in one bite.
Yoyo: "…"
The world stood still.
