Chapter 23 The Ignition Game
At 6 p.m., the six people, excluding Ding Ning, gathered on the street.
Anwar seemed a bit deserted at night, but that did not dampen their enthusiasm.
After nearly three hours of rest, they had recovered from the fatigue of the day's treasure hunt.
At the same time, it was the treasure hunt that brought two groups of tourists who were originally strangers together.
Now, everyone is incredibly excited about tonight's activities.
Tang Jiang noticed with his sharp eyes that the streetlights were not on today.
Is there a reason?
Tang Jiang thought to himself.
"Speaking of which, where did Ding Ning go?" Shi Erzhe scratched his head.
He was running around all day and was exhausted, so he went straight to bed when he got back to his room.
It was only then that he realized someone was missing from the group.
"Ningning said she had something to talk to Sister Yuanyuan about, but I don't know what they went to do."
As her roommate, Shan Shanshan naturally knew a little more, but not much more.
Speaking of Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive.
As they were talking, Ding Ning and Feng Shuyuan walked over from a distance.
Feng Shuyuan held a torch, its faint light standing out starkly against the darkness of the night.
"How was everyone's rest?" Feng Shuyuan greeted them with a smile.
"I rested very well! I can't wait!" Yu Xiaorui replied energetically.
Shan Shanshan, however, noticed that her roommate was also accompanied by a live-streaming robot.
Shan Shanshan pointed to the live-streaming robot, while Ding Ning pointed to Feng Shuyuan.
The two girls exchanged a glance and instantly understood each other's meaning.
"By the way, tonight's event will be broadcast live in its entirety. Does anyone mind that?"
The group exchanged glances and shook their heads.
Besides Shan Shanshan, who is a streamer herself and needs to broadcast, Yu Xiaorui and the other two also learned about this great place through live streaming.
Why would they refuse to be broadcast live?
"Okay, let's set off."
Feng Shuyuan walked at the front, the torch in her hand flickering in the wind, yet it was the only light in the night.
For some reason, just walking like this made Yu Xiaorui feel excited.
It was as if Feng Shuyuan was the navigator in this night, leading them to that unknown shore.
After walking for a short while, Shi Bai saw an activity area appear ahead.
The diverse array of stalls formed a small street in itself, standing in a corner of the activity area.
However, they are dark now.
Around the stalls, there were many tables and chairs scattered around.
On the other side, it's more like a leisure area.
Although there were many things he didn't know what they were for, Shi Bai recognized that the one in the corner was a swing.
At the very center of all these things was a tall pile of firewood.
Under the cover of night, the nearly two-meter-high pile of firewood inexplicably gave Shi Bai a sense of oppression.
When I came here in the afternoon, there was clearly nothing here.
I really don't know how Sister Yuanyuan came to be.
Shi Bai sighed inwardly.
Feng Shuyuan led them to the seating area and placed the torch in his hand on the stand next to him.
After setting the live streaming robot to circulate in the air, Ding Ning also sat down.
Meanwhile, Shan Shanshan had already quietly started her live stream and also set up Anhua's official live stream room in her own live stream room.
While in her room, Shan Shanshan had already explained to the viewers in the live stream that she would most likely only stream and not chat that night.
She wanted to immerse herself in this rare event.
Of course, even though viewers couldn't interact with the streamer, they weren't idle.
"Does everyone remember the riddles from earlier in the day? Didn't you think they were brilliant?"
"Yeah! After Shanshan revealed all the answers, I spent a lot of time researching them, and they were really interesting."
"The person who set this question is incredibly talented!"
"Let's not talk about the past! The next event is about to start!"
"Where is this? Shanshan and I practically explored the entire scenic area this morning, and we've never seen this place before!"
"Look, how many stalls are there over there!"
"Oh my god! Could it be those things mentioned in the booklet?!"
"I'm so curious! Shanshan, go check it out in a bit, please!"
However, Shan Shanshan did not read the comments.
She was eagerly awaiting the event.
"We now need to play a simple game to decide who will start the evening's activities."
Upon hearing Feng Shuyuan's words, everyone perked up and listened attentively.
"This is a number-grabbing game. The game consists of six rounds. In the first round, seven people grab six numbers, and one person is eliminated. This continues until only one person remains."
"Everyone should choose a nickname for themselves. When I say 'start,' everyone should stand up and try to grab a number. If only one person stands up, everyone will continue to grab the next number. The person who doesn't grab the last number is eliminated. If two people stand up for a certain number at the same time, the person who gets eliminated first will have their nickname announced."
"Ding Ning, come up here and demonstrate for me."
Even if you haven't eaten pork, you've at least seen pigs run; Ding Ning naturally knew about this game.
Others may not have played it before, but that doesn't mean they aren't smart.
After the demonstration, everyone quickly mastered the game.
The nicknames given by everyone were simple and unpretentious, which is what everyone liked the most these past few days.
Shi Erzhe calls it squid, Tang Jiang calls it steamed bun, Shan Shanshan calls it milk tea, and Shi Bai calls it sugar painting.
The remaining three have nicknames that are different from the other four.
Ding Ning calls it gasoline, An Yixuan calls it tourism, and Yu Xiaorui calls it Anhua.
"Gasoline?" Shi Erzhe looked at Ding Ning with a puzzled expression.
Ding Ning smiled at him in response.
"1!"
After Feng Shuyuan shouted "start," Shi Erzhe immediately stood up and grabbed the first number before anyone could react.
"2!"
Seeing that the first number had already been claimed, Tang Jiang and Shan Shanshan stood up at the same time.
Yu Xiaorui went even further, launching herself into the air with a sudden burst of speed, almost causing herself to stumble forward.
After a moment of stunned silence, the three of them stood facing each other for about a second, before Shan Shanshan pointed at Yu Xiaorui first:
"An Hua!"
Before Yu Xiaorui could even react, she had already been eliminated by Tang Jiang.
"steamed stuffed bun!"
Subsequently, Tang Jiang was eliminated by Shan Shanshan.
Yu Xiaorui sat down in frustration and smacked her head.
"Why am I so slow to react? I'm such a slowpoke!"
An Yixuan, standing to the side, smiled and took Yu Xiaorui's restless hand:
"Because your nickname is too easy to remember. The other four are four kinds of food, and it takes a little time to figure out which one is which in your mind, but your nickname requires almost no thought."
"That seems to be the case." Listening to An Yixuan's analysis, Yu Xiaorui suddenly realized.
Meanwhile, the remaining players have already started the second round.
"2!" While comforting Yu Xiaorui, An Yixuan stood up and grabbed a number that had just eliminated two people.
After sitting down, he winked at Yu Xiaorui and said, "I got the number 2 back for you."
