I Rule Fortune-Telling Livestreams-Chapter 169: If We Dug Through the Entire Island Country, Would There Be 3 Tons of Potatoes?

Chapter 169: Chapter 169: If We Dug Through the Entire Island Country, Would There Be 3 Tons of Potatoes?

The director said sternly, "What? Are you challenging the production team’s arrangements? We have our reasons for setting things up this way. Instead of worrying about whether other people can reach the summit, you should be worrying about how you’re going to dig three tons of potatoes, and how you’re going to transport them back. The tasks on *Qing Qing Wo Wo* have always been tricky. If you can’t complete them, why did you sign up for *Qing Qing Wo Wo* in the first place? Little Chen Yan, don’t try to stick up for others. Please cooperate with the production team and maintain order."

The director’s words put Chen Yan in an incredibly awkward position. Sun Yingbin quickly stepped in to smooth things over. "He’s just a newcomer and a little nervous. He was hoping the two guests could climb the mountain first to scout the path, which would make it easier for him to dig the potatoes! Isn’t that right, Chen Yan?"

"Alright, it’s already 9:50 AM. We’re running out of time before the task ends, so we’ll head out now!"

With that, Sun Yingbin led Zhao Jing to the library to search for Chi Ling’s ancestral recipe.

Chen Yan started digging potatoes in the field.

’The production team’s task is to dig three tons of potatoes,’ Chen Yan thought. Though he appeared silent, he was actually gritting his teeth in frustration. ’I’d like to know, even if a few of us dug up this entire Island Country, would we even find three tons?’

Meanwhile, Shen Zhiyao and Meng Xiaoxiao, dressed in high heels and wool sweaters, began huffing and puffing their way up the mountain.

Just then, the viewers in the live stream chat exploded:

[@Qing Qing Wo Wo Production Team, fuck you! Who gave you the nerve to treat our nation’s goddess like this!?]

[Yeah, exactly! Meng Xiaoxiao is frail! Making her climb a mountain is bad enough, but you’re making her do it in high heels!]

[No wonder your show’s logo is a red bean. You guys must be lovesick... for controversy!]

[I bet Shen Zhiyao’s cold persona is just an act. Just watch, halfway up the mountain, she’s going to fly into a rage and start beating up the crew members behind her.]

[That’s bullshit! Our streamer has always been as elegant and aloof as a lily. She would never hit someone, let alone make things difficult for them!]

[Believe it or not, with a task this cruel, let’s see if Shen Zhiyao can maintain that cold persona of hers!]

[Exactly, exactly! I’ve been sick of Shen Zhiyao for a while now. First, she rides Zhou Ye’s coattails, then she latches onto the film emperor. Does she really think she’s something special, the way she leeches off everyone!?]

Seeing these negative comments, the cameraman following them broke out in a cold sweat.

In truth, the production team had prepared casual clothes and flat shoes.

When the guests couldn’t take it anymore, they could change into them.

This would reduce the harm from climbing the mountain and also help with future broadcasts of the show. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

They walked for nearly an hour before they finally saw the threshold of the "Royal King Temple."

Meng Xiaoxiao pointed at the threshold and shouted happily, "Yaoyao, look! We’ve reached the summit!"

Shen Zhiyao let out a laugh. She glanced at Meng Xiaoxiao and said, "Xiao Xiao, this isn’t the summit. This is the entrance gate to the mountain. We’ve only just started climbing!"

Meng Xiaoxiao: "..."

"AHHHH! How have we been climbing for over an hour and we’ve only just started?! I’m so tired I can’t walk anymore, and my feet are all blistered from these high heels. It hurts so much. Yaoyao, I want to give up on the task!"

’Give up? How is that possible? If we give up, what’s waiting for us is a shower of shit!’

’Who could guarantee that when the shit came pouring down, none of it would end up in your mouth?’

’No, we absolutely cannot give up on this task.’

’No matter what, I can’t let my good friend stand under a glass pillar and eat shit!’

Shen Zhiyao gently patted Meng Xiaoxiao’s shoulder. "Xiao Xiao, do you trust me?"

Meng Xiaoxiao looked at Shen Zhiyao pitifully. "I trust you."

As soon as she said that, Shen Zhiyao crouched down. "Get on. I’ll carry you. Don’t refuse. If you dare to trust me, I dare to carry you up this mountain. I will get you to the summit before five o’clock. We absolutely cannot give up on this task. Unless you want to eat shit."

Seeing that the time for them to "eat shit" was drawing ever closer, Meng Xiaoxiao immediately got onto Shen Zhiyao’s back, letting her carry her up the mountain. "Yaoyao, am I really heavy? I feel like I’m dragging you down..."

"No,

you’re not affecting me at all.

Besides, you’re very light.

You’re the lightest woman I’ve ever carried!"

As Shen Zhiyao’s heartwarming words fell, the girls in the live stream chat went wild:

[AHHHHHH! Mom, I ship them! Oh my god, this pairing is so sweet!]

[Damn, why didn’t anyone say Shen Zhiyao was this cool before! What an insane combo! She’s running this fast while carrying Meng Xiaoxiao, all in high heels and tight pants! That’s so badass!]

[I need to know, what brand of high heels is Shen Zhiyao wearing? They’re so sturdy!]

[For real, those shoes are supporting a couple hundred pounds and they still haven’t broken.]

[Holy crap, at this rate, the two of them are actually going to succeed!]

[I’m sorry, I was talking too much shit before. I’m officially a Shen Zhiyao fan now!]

Climbing a 2,000-meter-high mountain in high heels would be next to impossible for anyone else:

First, the heels would rub your skin raw, a pain that would make you question your very existence.

Second, it’s incredibly difficult to maintain balance in high heels. Just walking a few steps is a struggle, let alone climbing a 2,000-meter mountain.

But for Shen Zhiyao, none of these difficulties were a problem.

As a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator, her body’s functions were always in their optimal state. Any wounds she sustained would heal automatically, so there was no question of her skin getting rubbed raw.

If the cameras hadn’t forbidden her from using Thousand Miles a Day, she would have carried Meng Xiaoxiao to the summit long ago.

「Meanwhile, on the other side.」

The library Sun Yingbin was in had three floors, each one packed with books.

Trying to find Chi Ling’s ancestral recipe among all these books was even harder than climbing to heaven.

After searching for a long time, Zhao Jing collapsed onto the floor in exhaustion. "Brother Bin, this is too hard! I don’t think I can go on!"

Sun Yingbin moved a stool behind Zhao Jing and said, "If you’re tired, sit here and rest. I’ll go up to the second floor and see if I can find any clues."

Zhao Jing didn’t stand on ceremony. The moment Sun Yingbin brought out the stool, she sat down.

Because this was just too difficult!

She didn’t know if the people of this Island Country were crazy, but every bookshelf in the library was three meters tall. That was basically the height of the ceiling.

The library might be dilapidated, but its floor space was enormous.

’By the time they find it, it’ll probably be next year...’

As for Chen Yan, things were even worse. He had put on a sun-protection jacket and was relentlessly digging potatoes in the field, his sweat soaking the soft earth.

He dug for nearly an hour without stopping, making the viewers in the live stream feel sorry for him:

[Damn, is this production team sick in the head?!]

[I’ve been wanting to say this: making Chen Yan dig three tons of potatoes by himself in one day? Not even *Challenge the Impossible* would pull a stunt like that!]

[Look, Chen Yan’s face is flushed! That’s obviously heatstroke, and the production team isn’t even letting him rest!]

[Chen Yan, stop digging! This task is impossible. You should just forfeit!]

[Hey, person above me, are you even human? We’ve already seen the show’s "reward." If Chen Yan doesn’t dig his heart out, he’ll have to eat shit, dude!]

[Hahahahaha, I can already imagine the scene of Chen Yan getting splattered with shit. It’s definitely going to be spectacular!]

[Hey, person above me, are you even human? Would you be willing to take a bite of shit? Do unto others as you would have them do unto you!]
