Chapter 117.1 – Hu Jian^[1]Protect Jian

Pan Min asked Qin Chen and Xu Jian not to coddle under the noses of many people. Qin Chen felt that Pan Min was a bit paranoid^[2]Lit. Every tree or bush is an enemy soldier [idiom]. Fig. To panic and treat everyone as an enemy. I felt that this word would fit this description. RIP my vocabs., because of having a guilty conscience, she felt that the ordinary interaction between him and Xu Jian had crossed the line.

Sensing Pan Min’s gaze, in order not to stimulate her, Qin Chen finally sat upright and slightly distanced himself from Xu Jian.

In a flash, they reached their first destination, everyone got off the bus. As soon as Xu Jian’s feet landed, Ling Fei’s voice came from his ears.

“Oh my god, isn’t the first round too big?”

Xu Jian raised his eyes and saw that the place where they are now is a circular plaza. After the program’s arrangement, billboards of the major sponsors of the program are placed around the plaza.

Moreover, in the center, more than N^[3]Similar to like nth number. acupuncture mats are spliced together forming a large ‘口’ with balloons of different colors scattered on it.

Seeing the acupuncture mats, Qin Chen’s teammate, Kong Zhaoze, had a bitter smile, “I feel pain when I look at it.”

The other two veteran players nodded in agreement, Ling Fei squatted and pressed the acupuncture mat at his feet with his palm, then let out a shriek, “Ah–”

Xu Jian, who had never felt the power of the acupuncture mat, looked at Ling Fei who had a distorted face, picked it in his mind, and pulled Qin Chen’s sleeves.

“Does it really hurts?”

It looks and feels good ah. How can Ling Fei act more than Tang Li?

Tang Li, who was far away in Nanfeng City, felt that his nose was a little itchy. After raising his hand and rubbing it, he thought to himself–

Who’s thinking of me?

After Xu Jian finished asking, Qin Chen hadn’t answered yet when his teammate, Cao Tian, suddenly floated between the two like a spirit, with hidden bitterness in his tone.

“Xu Jian, do you still remember who your teammate is?”

At the same time, Cao Tian pointed to the Sun mini badge on his chest, which means:

I’m your teammate, don’t give up the light to the dark!

Cao Tian jumped in fright.^[4]I’m not sure if this was an error and the person was supposed to be XJ, but I’ll just put it as is like the raw. After looking at the other party’s accusing eyes, Xu Jian who had abandoned his teammate all the way, was a little embarrassed and hurriedly said, “I was just asking.”

Taking a look at Xu Jian, who was frantically clearing up the relationship and looking nervous, Qin Chen was amused and shook his head.

At this time Qin Chen’s teammate, Kong Zhaoze also leaned over, half-jokingly and half-seriously said, “You can’t release water^[5]To throw a game. later because of your good relationship with Xu Jian.”

Qin Chen smiled, “Don’t worry ba.”

After Ling Fei and the others circled around the acupuncture mat and the camera captured enough of their scared, shocked, and nothing to live for expressions, the director slowly picked up the loudspeaker and asked the staff to hand over the rules of the first round of the game to explain.

Each of the three teams was given one copy. Xu Jian leaned over to Cao Tian to look at the game card:

[The name of the first round game: Weights Acupuncture Mats

Completion requirement: Each team can pass the game by sending one person to complete the task.

Completion conditions: Each player has 15 jin^[6]~20 lbs. of sandbags tied to each leg. They must take off their shoes and go on the acupuncture mat. During the game, they must not only complete the specified actions of the program group on the mat but also step on the balloons.

Special note: The red balloon is a land mine. Stepping on the red balloon or falling out of the acupuncture mat is considered a failure. You need to go back to the starting point to restart the game.

Game rewards: Captain Time, +20 minutes, Team Member, +10.

Warm reminder: After each game failure, you can replace a team member on the field, with no maximum limit.

Ling Fei’s teammate’s name is Xue Yi. After reading the game card, he turned his head to look at the director.

“15 jin of sandbags are tied to each leg, doesn’t that add up to 30 jin?”^[7]~40lbs

The greater the weight on the acupuncture mat, the greater the pain felt. The director thinks that these big men aren’t heavy enough.

The director smiled and fell into a very good mood.

“We have prepared extra sandbags. If someone feels that 30 jin is too little, we can increase it for free.”

Everyone: “…..”

Who wants to increase the weight! It’s not like they have a hole in their brain!

Cao Tian was a little fat. After reading the rules, he looked at Xu Jian with heavy eyes, “This game is not very friendly to our fatty.  Xu Jian ah, it’s up to you on this round.”

Xu Jian, who was caught off guard and carried the hopes of the whole team, was a little nervous, “I’m going to play in the first round?”

Cao Tian held his stomach and nodded solemnly, “Don’t be afraid, go ba! “

Xu Run: “… Fine ba.”

Soon, the first-round players of the three teams were determined. Sun Team: Xu Jian; Moon Team: Kong Zhaoze; Star Team: Ling Fei.

The director used the most fair and just ‘rock-paper-scissors’ to determine the order of appearances, the losers go first.

After a few big men competed, Ling Fei bitterly patted the back of his hand. “I won’t disappoint!”

Ling Fei took off his shoes in preparation for the game. Xu Jian, who was playing behind him, was a little nervous. He quietly stretched out his foot on the mat to try it. In the next second, he quickly retracted his foot and grimaced secretly–

It hurts more than he thought!

With a panoramic view of Xu Jian’s small movements, Qin Chen resisted hooking the corners of his mouth and began to prepare to watch the good show.

While Ling Fei tied the sandbags, a staff member brought four action diagrams and sent them to Xu Jian and Qin Chen, the four members of their teams. The director said to them:

“The four of you can choose your position. After Ling Fei walks to your position, you must stop and complete the action in the picture with your hands before you can go and move forward.”

Xu Jian got a relatively simple picture – standing on one leg.

Condition: Keep still for 5 seconds.

Xu Jian subconsciously looked at the picture in Qin Chen’s hand and saw jumping rope 10 times in place.

In Kong Zhaoze and Cao Tian’s hands, is a one-handed handstand and elephant spin twice^[8]This is like imitating the elephant’s nose and then turning, please see here for visualization., respectively.

The four people looked at the picture together. Xu Jian shuddered. The program team is really cruel.

He could already imagine what strange movement requirements he has when he plays.

Kong Zhaoze also regretted it and touched his arm to look at Qin Chen. “Brother Qin, why don’t you go on first.”

Qin Shen mercilessly shoots, “No.”

Kong Zhao Ze covered his face, “Ying–^[9]Crying cutely.

…………

Two minutes later, screams rang out over the plaza. After taking off his shoes and stepping on the acupuncture mat with sandbags tied to him, Ling Fei’s expression lost control. The screams become louder every time he stepped on a balloon. 

There was no idol image to speak of.

Don’t know if it hurts or is silly, but Ling Fei can’t avoid the red balloon all the time. He does it repeatedly. His teammate, Xue Yi watched him on the side anxiously and amusedly.

Ling Fei repeated it for ten minutes and finally completed Cao Tian’s elephant spin three times. He screamed all the way to Xu Jian. Stumbling like that, Xu Jian couldn’t help but raise his heart for him, for fear that he would fall out of the acupuncture mat range and start again.
