Picturesque mountains and rivers of the motherland

At dawn, Bai Ting's biological clock woke him up.

Opening his eyes, Bai Ting was startled, and a big face was in front of him.

"Morning." Huo Shu said quietly.

"Morning, why did you wake up so early? The show didn't start recording until about ten o'clock." Bai Ting was sleepy, unable to feel the resentment of the person in front of him.

Huo Shu's lower eyelids were black and blue. Bai Ting's unintentional words of "there is someone under the bed", "there is someone behind the curtain", and "there is someone behind" last night made him think wildly all night, always feeling that there could be some strange things coming out of this room.

After Bai Ting finished washing, he looked at Huo Shu who was sitting on the head of the bed, and sincerely suggested to his friends in the empire, "Go back to sleep?"

Huo Shutou shook like a rattle: "There are still a few hours before the recording, you can accompany me to Yuewang Temple."

Bai Ting looked at the other party's chicken coop hairstyle and kidney deficiency appearance, and didn't ask any further questions, thinking that he might not be able to hold back the pain to finish engraving "serving the country with all sincerity" and felt ashamed.

The two went there by plane.

Along the way, Huo Shu rambled on, confiding his heart to Bai Ting.In just half an hour, Bai Ting knew a lot of secret history of the Huo family.

As a prestigious family in the empire, the Huo family is similar to the Lou family in the Federation.It's just that the Huo family is not as civilized as the Lou family, so Huo Shu lived in depression when he was young.The twin elder brother has full-level spiritual power. Although the other cousins ​​are not as outstanding as Huo Xing, they are all supernatural beings. Only Huo Shu himself is ordinary.

The Huo family staged intrigues every day. Huo Xing, a waste material like Huo Xing, was neither valued nor liked by the elders. He was blessed by misfortune and was not affected by various tricks.

"I don't care too much about whether I have mental strength or whether others look down on me. I am just a child who can't get rid of it. Just like the cake you liked but couldn't eat when you were young, you must try it when you grow up, even if it is cheap. It's unpalatable." Huo Xing said.

Bai Ting nodded, Huo Shu's personality was free and unrestrained, he really didn't look like a person with too much self-motivation.

Bai Ting reminded: "But even if you endure the pain and are engraved, the chance of triggering your mental power is very low, less than 0.03%. Most of the time, you are whipped for nothing."

How likely is this to be triggered? Bai Ting once consulted the Shenzhou system, and the Shenzhou system only replied, "Fate is destined."

This 0.03% chance is what he saw from the forum.It is said that a scholar took the triggering probability of Yuewangmiao's mental power as a research topic, and squatted in Yuewangmiao early in the morning for 90 consecutive days to observe, and finally came up with this data.

Huo Shu: "If you don't try it, you will regret it. I am mentally prepared this time, and I will definitely be able to hold back the pain."

The other side swears, and Bai Ting is not going to disappoint.

After half an hour, the two arrived at Yuewang Temple.

Huo Shu yelled twice in front of the door to embolden himself.

The voice of the Shenzhou system came from the mind: "Friendly reminder, the West Lake scenic spot has been upgraded to LV15, and the effect of 'serving the country with loyalty' in Yuewang Temple has also been strengthened accordingly."

strengthen?That's a good thing, the odds go up.

Bai Ting said to Huo Shu: "You are lucky."

Huo Shu walked into the Yuewang Temple with an attitude of wind and wind and easy water and cold.

Bai Ting didn't enter the Yuewang Temple, but took a stroll around Xiling Yinshe, seeing that it was almost time, he went back to Yuewang Temple to pick up Huo Shu.

However, after waiting for a while, there was still no sign of Huo Shu.

There is no reason.

Bai Ting was wondering, when he heard a series of wailing from far to near, and a figure threw himself on him.

That thick brown curly hair was either Huo Shu or someone else.

"What?" Bai Ting looked at Huo Shu with teary eyes, and sighed that it was indeed a young master, with delicate skin and expensive flesh, who couldn't stand the whipping.

"Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow."

Bai Ting: "It's nothing, it's all psychological pain."

Although he didn't experience it personally, according to everyone's feedback, Bai Ting already knew that the process of being whipped was a bit painful, but after the end, if the mental power was not activated, the brand of "serving the country with loyalty" and the pain would disappear.If half of the engraved characters can't help but escape, the mental power will not be activated, and the handwriting will still remain, but the pain will disappear after a while.

Bai Ting looked at Huo Shu who was out of breath from crying, and shook his head. "Your pain tolerance is too low, you can't even hold up to four words."

Huo Shu whimpered: "There are more than four characters! It has been engraved for a long, long time! It's so old! I couldn't stand the pain and ran out."

Bai Ting took out a bottle of milk from the storage container, and took a bottle of grass cream. "Let me help you take a look."

Although this ointment has no effect on the lettering, it is cool and comfortable, and can relieve the psychological shadow.

Huo Shu obediently turned around and lifted his sweater.

Bai Ting looked at the writing on his bare back and was speechless.

Bai Ting: "Shenzhou system, come out."

Shenzhou System: "Host, please tell me."

Bai Ting pointed at Huo Shu's back: "What's going on?"

Huo Shu's back was engraved densely and densely. It was indeed "serve the country with loyalty", but it was not the words "serve the country with loyalty" but the song "serve the country with loyalty".

Bai Ting was deeply impressed by this song. Back then, he was dragged to a platter concert by his younger sister. When he saw Tu Hong just singing this song, he split his legs and lowered his back. Bai Ting worked so hard that Bai Ting felt pain off the stage.

Because Huo Shu couldn't bear the pain and ran out, at this moment, the words on his back were broken at the key words "I would like to defend the land and restore the frontiers, and the majestic China wants to let the Quartet come to congratulate".It is necessary to engrave a Xizi head, but the woman's bottom has not yet been engraved.

Shenzhou system: "Didn't I remind you just now? The West Lake has been upgraded, and the effect of Yuewang Temple's 'serving the country with loyalty' has also been strengthened accordingly."

Bai Ting: ...

It was his fault, he forgot about the show of the Shenzhou system, and thought that enhancement was effect enhancement, which was too much taken for granted.

Bai Ting had no choice but to comfort Huo Shu: "If you don't hold back, it won't look good to keep this piece."

Huo Shu: Tired and not in love.

In the end, Huo Shu finished the engraving with Bai Ting's encouragement, but unfortunately he didn't activate his mental power. Although the pain disappeared after the engraving, there was a shadow in his heart.

"The Stranger's Wave Travel" entered the second day of recording.

The location of the second day was Tianchi.

Changbai Mountain Tianchi is shrouded in fog for about 265 days a year, making it difficult to see the beauty of it.Bai Ting has been there several times, and only one time happened to coincide with the thawing period of the lake water, so he was able to spy on the true appearance of Tianchi Lake.

But at this moment, the sky was clear and everyone was standing at the highest crater in China.The sapphire blue lake is like a mirror dropped by a fairy, and the flowers on the shore of the lake are like a brocade, like the most beautifully embroidered carpet.

After a night of recuperation, everyone was in high spirits, only Huo Shu looked sluggish, and Bai Ting was also slightly tired.

Liang Jiayan dressed up extremely exquisitely today, standing out from the crowd of guests with light makeup and scanty makeup.He smiled thoughtfully, and said to Huo Shu and Bai Ting, "Even if there is no filming in the room, you can't be too nonsense."

The suffix of the word nonsense rises, which makes people think about it. If you don't have some charming thoughts, you will be sorry for this tone.

Lou Kaimo's face darkened instantly.

Fortunately, Luo Dao hastily inserted a voiceover: "Today we officially enter the topic of program recording, travel competition!"

Although "The Stranger's Wave Travel" has deviated from the original intention in the first season, and the hot spot is also the interpersonal interaction, but it does not prevent its main mode from still traveling and competing.

Its competitive mode is not a serious mech battle or ability competition, but some interesting games.In short, it's a variety show.Luo Dao had made a request to Bai Ting before, hoping that the game would combine the folk customs and scenic spots of Huaxia Star.

Luo Dao introduced the story of Tianchi to everyone from the voice-over.

According to legend, many years ago, there was a fire demon here, who did all kinds of evil, and the people around were in dire straits.A brave girl decided to eliminate harm for the people, and moved the Dragon King of the East China Sea with her sincerity, and borrowed a huge piece of ice.On the day when the fire demon did evil, the girl brought ice into the stomach of the fire demon, only to hear a loud bang, and the huge ice melted into a pool of clear water.

About the story of Changbai Mountain, Bai Ting has heard at least [-] or [-] versions, or it is a beautiful folk moral, or the tour guide's rhetoric.

Before the filming of the show started, Bai Ting gave everything to Director Luo for his use.If you want to come to Luodao to choose this version, it must be related to the next competition.I don't know if it's intense physical confrontation, or extreme sports like skydiving and bungee jumping.

Sure enough, Luo Dao said: "Are you all moved by this story? Today, we will hold a unique competition by the beautiful Tianchi Lake!"

Luo Dao paused, and continued: "Our competition is - making dumplings!"

Bai Ting:? ? ?

You can do something that you can find anywhere in the corner, brother, you came to Tianchi?

How does this story relate to making dumplings?

Bai Ting glanced at the indifferent crowd, thinking, maybe his associative power is not rich enough to draw a connection between the two.

==

Dumplings are not popular in the Federation. To be precise, there is no food called dumplings in the Federation. Instead, there is a food between dumplings, steamed stuffed buns and wraps called skin-wrapped meat.

This kind of food, which sounds like a curse for poor stature, is very popular among the federation's supernatural beings and soldiers.A piece of dough, with chopped food in the middle, and the dough can make food as you like, throw it into boiling water and cook.The skin of the noodles is very thick, so there is no need to worry about the skin cracking after cooking for a long time.

Nowadays, it is easy for Bai Ting to compete in making dumplings.

Luo Dao seemed to know Bai Ting's thoughts. First, he played a pre-recorded dumpling cultural film for the guests, and then said: "Since we have arrived in Huaxia, we must respect the local folk customs. But if it is just making dumplings, that would be too much." It’s cheap, Boss Bai.”

The corners of Bai Ting's eyes twitched, feeling a bad premonition.

Sure enough, Luo Dao continued: "In order to show fairness, this dumpling must naturally be innovative. We have provided you with some original food, and you need to use your brains for the rest."

With that said, the staff brought up several tables full of materials.

Bai Ting looked at it twice and felt a headache.

Before time travel, Bai Ting, as a southerner, was not keen on the food of dumplings. Occasionally, he made dumplings on a whim, but he always bought ready-made dumpling wrappers.I really have leisure and elegance, so I also get some all-purpose flour, mix some egg whites and throw it in the bread machine to make it automatically.

At this moment, the program team brought a few bags of wheat.

In addition, the stuffing material is also very unique.Bai Ting can be called famous, such as green pepper, citric fruit, and red kernels, which are roughly equal to the three seasonings of onion, ginger, and garlic on the earth. You have never seen dumplings filled with ginger, have you?Another example is fairy leaf beans and purple hemp kernels, which are roughly equivalent to things like coffee beans and broad beans. In short, they are not suitable.

Luo Dao: "Considering whether the dumplings can be eaten, we have also prepared four special gift packages, which contain three kinds of meat and three kinds of vegetables. The competition method is very easy, and the competition is shooting. Please look at the shooting on the opposite side of Tianchi plate."

Bai Ting turned his head, speechless for a while.

Across the distant Tianchi Lake, there indeed seem to be several boards, but because the distance is too far, squares can be vaguely seen, and the colors on them are not very clear.

"This is too unrealistic..." Before Bai Ting could finish his sentence, Huo Shu took over the shooting gun from the staff, and with a bang, the panel reported: "9.9 rings."

There are still laps!

Bai Ting, who has always been proud of his 5.2 eyesight, was stunned.

No one raised any objections, because among this group of people, apart from Bai Ting, they were all supernatural beings, and so was Liang Jiayan, who looked delicate.

The shooting competition was over, as expected, Bai Ting was at the bottom, and he shot thousands of miles away from the target, which was very embarrassing.

The Lou family brothers and the Huo family brothers received food gift packages.

Liang Jiayan said coquettishly to Huo Xing: "Director Huo, you see that I can't make food with these things, why don't you share some with me."

Huo Xing was puzzled: "What about the competition, why?"

Liang Jiayan's smile stiffened suddenly.

In the next second, Huo Xing ran all the way to Bai Ting's side: "Boss Bai, look at how many ingredients I have, why don't you pick some first."

Liang Jiayan, who watched people drifting past him: ...

Luo Dao said: "The prizes are not to be shared, please respect the rules."

Lou Kaimo paused for a share and was about to walk towards Bai Ting.

"It's all right." Bai Ting waved his hands with a smile, mainly because the "Huaxia Star Connector" reminder sound kept coming back in his head.

Bai Ting hid himself from the camera and clicked on to check the information.

Laoshan Taoist: "Boss Bai! You are possessed by men's football!"

Wu Zetian: "Whoa, Boss, your image of a domineering president in my heart has collapsed."

Cao Cao: "I'd rather lose to the world than let Boss Bai lose face."

Pan Gu: "Since the beginning of the world, it has never been so ugly."

Prodigal son: "If you lose, you don't lose at all, shame on you!"

Frog Spirit: "Boss, you represent the face of China!"

……

Bai Ting had no choice but to look up at Xiaoqing who was in the staff team, thinking that Xiaoqing was broadcasting live on the aboriginal communicator again.

Bai Ting felt the hatred of all the NPCs, but unfortunately he was powerless.

Bai Ting had no choice but to reply in the group chat: "It's a variety show, don't rise to the level of representing China. In variety show competitions, happiness comes first, friendship comes second, and competition comes third!"

Bai Ting's message was sent out for three seconds, and the screen was full of responses.

Laoshan Taoist: "Competition first, friendship dies!"

Wu Zetian: "There is no second in my life dictionary!"

Guan Yu: "We must win the championship!"

Frog Essence: +1

……

Yu Gong: +99

……

Bai Ting can't laugh or cry, the men of great China really have a strong desire to win.

After a while, Bai Ting received another bunch of reminders.

"I received an email [XXS Upgraded Qinglong Yanyue Knife]. The sender, Guan Yu, added a note: It is especially useful for cutting vegetables!"

"I received a piece of [Simu Wuding] in the mail. The sender, Bai Niangzi, added a note: I just got it from the museum. Putting the ingredients can increase the deliciousness!"

"I received a piece of [XS Fang Tian's Painting Halberd] in the mail. The sender Cao Cao added: I snatched it before Lu Bu came out. The efficiency of grinding wheat is very high."

"Received a piece of mail [Asian Fang Zun]. The sender, Jingshen, added a note: The bronze treasure of the Forbidden City, put cooked food to increase the delicacy."

Bai Ting: ...

Before crossing, Bai Ting once bought a "Jade Seal of Chuanguo".At that time, he was young and ignorant, and was infected by the tearful recounting of his life experience by the old man on the side of the road. He spent one of his New Year's pocket money to buy the jade seal handed down from the old man's hand, and was laughed at by his family for half a year.The Chuan Guo Yuxi was finally used by my mother to smash walnuts.

Every time I see the unsophisticated flaunting of wealth in TV dramas, my mother will be very calm: "What's the point of dropping a Bentley, I smashed walnuts with the Chuan Guo Yuxi."

Now, your son is more promising, and he is going to make dumplings with top cultural relics and legendary martial arts.

Bai Ting couldn't laugh or cry when he thought about it.

"Seeing these green peppers, citric fruit, and red kernels, I really miss them." Lou Jingming beside him interrupted Bai Ting's thoughts.

Bai Ting nodded, he also heard that the marshal used these three things to repel the alien under the advice of Diaoyutai NPC "Fish".One can imagine how dark these three ingredients are mixed together.

"To make the dumpling wrappers, you need to grind the flour first, right?" Lou Jingming recalled the documentary he just watched.

It was only then that Bai Ting thought, did he want to make a stone mill and a donkey mill?

Bai Ting raised his head and found that the guests really had their own unique tricks.

For example, Huo Shu, who was more brutal, picked up a handful of wheat with his hands, and when he exerted force, he punched out a fistful of flour in his palm.

For example, Kaliang, who beat cattle across the mountain, moved two stone slabs into the air and sprinkled a handful of wheat. When the stone slabs hit, a bowl of flour was shaken off.

The most unbelievable thing was Lou Kaimo, standing still, the wheat in front of him seemed to be given life and turned into powder by itself.

After watching the performance of "The Wonderful Ability of the World" in front of him, Bai Ting felt that he who was still thinking about getting a donkey was indeed a big waste.

"Do you want to help?" Lou Jingming just asked, when Luo Dao, who had sharp ears, heard him shouting, "No help!"

Bai Ting waved his hand to express that he didn't mind, and asked Luo Dao, "You can't bring your own ingredients, but can you use the tools?"

Director Luo nodded.

Bai Ting pondered for a moment, and when he was about to say, "Then help me get a donkey", he met Xiao Qing's eyes.

Hot!combustion!Full of desire to win!

It seems that Bai Ting is not recording a variety show, but is fighting with the expectations of hundreds of millions of Chinese people with 5000 years of Chinese civilization.

Bai Ting: Feel the pressure.

In the end, Bai Ting took out the [XS version of Fang Tian's painting halberd] with some shame.

The artifact of the number one warrior of the Three Kingdoms really lives up to its reputation, even if it is the XS version, it feels murderous and cold.

Lou Jingming looked curiously at the side, thinking that Bai Ting planned to hunt for ingredients himself.

Bai Ting came to a pile of wheat, looked at the well-shaped halberd, and really didn't know what to do.

Bai Ting had no choice but to secretly ask Cao Cao for help through the communicator.

Bai Ting: Fuck, how does Fang Tian’s painting halberd grind flour?

Cao Cao: Boss Bai, you can yell at him, "Fang Tian's ability to draw a halberd, Ula, Utara, Fang Tian's ability to draw a halberd is improved, give him flour." That's it.

Bai Ting: ...

This Lu Bu, still looking at Ba La La Xiao Moxian?

Bai Ting felt tired and disliked.

Seeing that everyone else had entered the stage of chopping stuffing, Bai Ting could only hold the XS version of Fang Tian's painting halberd in shame, and whispered the spell.

The shame is off the charts!

Bai Ting felt his cheeks become hot for a while, the spell ended, and all the wheat in front of him turned into flour.Bai Ting ignored other people's probing gazes, and quickly kneaded the dough and rolled out the dumpling wrappers.

Now that he had already started, Bai Ting let go.

No ingredients?Then throw it all into [Simuwuding] to neutralize it.

Looking at this cultural relic representing the level of my country's Shang Dynasty bronzes, which was on the front page of the middle school history book, and now being used to hold green onions, ginger and garlic, Bai Ting shed tears of guilt from the bottom of his heart.

Others have special ability bonuses, but in the final analysis, most of them are not good at cooking, they are only good at heating food, let alone dumplings that require some technical content.

Thus, Bai Ting became the first person to make a basket of dumplings.

He thought for a while, made a bowl of boiling water, and a frying pan, and put them in [Yaqin Fangzun].

Bai Ting: I have wronged you. As one of the treasures of the Forbidden City, it was used to hold dumplings.

The judges of the dumpling competition were randomly selected by the program group from the Huaxia star tourists.They didn't know who made the dumplings in advance, and they only sorted them according to the dumplings they ate.

Unsurprisingly, Bai Ting won the No.1 award with ingredients that could not be used as fillings at all.

Luo Dao couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Sure enough, it is the first place in the innovation competition, and this is not difficult."

Bai Ting smiled, his face flushed.The reason for his blushing was not Luo Dao's compliment, but the beaming NPCs on the aboriginal communicator.

Bao Zheng: Boss Bai is niubility!You are as bright as the moon!No, the moon is not as bright as you!

Zhan Zhao: Happy!Eat two packs of spicy strips, oh no, let's celebrate the mouse!

Prodigal son: Boss Bai's slender fingers are kneading the dough, as if he is kneading my heart, what a wave, what a wave~

Ma Wencai: The moment the dumplings were put into the pot, the tumbling dumplings were my boiling heart!

……

==

The recording came to an end and everyone ate together.

Huo Shu became very interested in Chinese delicacies, so he searched the interstellar channel for a long time, and found the "Huaxia Customs Record" that was previously recorded jointly by Huaxia Star and the Federation Central Television.This is one of the rewards of the previous innovation contest.

Everyone eats on the screen.

When everyone left, only Huo Shu who was watching the show with great interest, Bai Ting who was waiting for his roommates to return home, and Lou Kaimo who stayed for some reason remained at the table.

On the screen, the reporter who was collecting the news was tasting a famous southern dish, stuffed bitter melon.

This reporter is obviously a carnivore. After eating a piece of bitter gourd, he still can't get enough of it, but he doesn't like to eat the outer circle of bitter gourd. He directly pokes out the pork inside with a spoon and eats it like meatballs.At the end, she said coquettishly to the screen: "Everyone must not be picky eaters like me!"

Huo Shu's Ha Lazi had half of his chin drooping.

Lou Kaimo sat next to Bai Ting at some point, looked at the screen, and suddenly said, "I remember you used to not like bitter melon, and you would throw it to me every time."

Bai Ting was stunned suddenly, apparently he did not expect that the other party would take the initiative to talk to him.

The atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward.

The host on the screen worked very hard to make the audience empathize, and the exclamations of "Wow! Oh my God! This is amazing" kept ringing around.

Lou Kaimo turned his head and looked at the silent Bai Ting.The light from the screen streamed across his face, like a well-made cocktail, slowly shaking in the glass.

Lou Kaimo suddenly felt a little embarrassed. He himself said that he hoped the other party would not treat him as Xiao Hei, but now he talked about Xiao Hei.

Until the end of the show, the room was only filled with the exaggerated voice of the host and the sound of Huo Shu swallowing his saliva.

"No, I'll watch the part where I went to the food street just now." Huo Shu said, and then turned the video back again. Unfortunately, it happened to be adjusted to the part about bitter melon brewing.

Bai Ting suddenly chuckled: "I quite like bitter melon."

Lou Kaimo tilted his head, looked at Bai Ting's empty eyes, feeling a little puzzled.

Bai Ting: "Actually, at that time, I found that you, oh no, I should say Xiao Hei, especially don't like to eat vegetarian dishes, and only eat meat every time. I was afraid that your combination of meat and vegetables would be bad for your health, so I put bitter melon Clamp it to you."

Lou Kaimo was startled.

He always thought that Bai Ting was a very gentle person in every detail, but unexpectedly, Bai Ting was more gentle than he had noticed.

"But it doesn't matter, anyway, you are not Xiao Hei."

Bai Ting suddenly turned his head and smiled at Lou Kaimo.

The sun was setting outside the window, and the shattered clouds seemed like fish scales soaked in blood, which made people feel very uncomfortable.The clouds in the sky are driving away the last bit of light, non-stop.

Lou Kaimo suddenly felt that it was getting dark.
