ATBBMPL – Chapter 71
After the
dinner, the day was almost over.
Everyone sat
outside and watched the stars in the sky. After chatting about what they might
do next day, they went to rest.
While sleeping
in the middle of the night, Xia Xia felt like the yurt seemed to be
moving, and she didn't know what was hitting it again and again. At first, Xia
Xia thought she was dreaming, but after this sound appeared several times, Xia
Xia said, "Have you heard the sound?" Everyone was tired today.
But although they were sound asleep, Xia Xia's words still woke everyone up.
"What?"
Xia Xia:
"Someone seems to be hitting our yurt." As soon as her voice fell, it
hit again, followed by a series of hits, even more pronounced.
"What
is this?" Several staff members were immediately awakened.
Xia Xia tried
to shout: "Who is outside?!" No one responded.
The yurt
where Xia Xia and the others live was not only used as a daily studio for the
director group, but also where all the female staff stayed. Right now everyone was
a little scared: "What should we do?"
Xia Xia
thought for a while, took out her mobile phone and called Deputy Director Liu:
"There seems to be someone outside our yurt. We shouted but no respond.
Can you help us see who it is?"
Director Liu
hung up his cell phone sleepily, and then got up. Other colleagues heard the
movement and asked, "What's the matter?"
Director Liu
yawned: "Xia Xia said there is someone over there, so let me take a look."
While speaking, he put on slippers and walked staggeringly to the door. He
really couldn’t figure out who made this prank in the middle of the night.
Director Liu
opened the door, and at this moment he immediately awoke from the doze, and then
he moved with the fastest speed in his life to close the door.
The sound of
"bang" directly frightened the sleeping staffs in Director Liu’s yurt
and they began to sit up one by one. The second "What…" came out of
their mouth, they heard something was hitting their yurts outside.
Everyone
thought they were dreaming, but the next sound was too obvious: "What's
wrong, Director Liu?" They saw Director Liu turned around with a pale
face, and he said tremblingly: "Outside, outside, there are wolves."
The group of
people reacted: "What?"
Director
Liu's brain was blank for a while, and then he reacted, hurried to the window,
found his phone and called Xia Xia: "You must not open the door, there are
many wolves outside!"
...
Xia Xia hung
up the phone with a dull expression, and her face became paler. Inside the
quiet yurt, the voice on the phone was especially loud, so the other female staffs
also heard what Director Liu said, but they still asked incredulously:
"Director Xia, what did Director Liu say?"
How could
there be wolves? They must have heard it wrong.
But then Xia
Xia said: "It's a wolf outside."
Now, the
people in the two yurts all woke up in shock.
...
After the
guests ate roasted whole lamb yesterday, the director team also ordered one
today, but they didn’t finish all and planned to eat the rest tomorrow. Therefore,
the leftover mutton was placed in the yurt where Xia Xia and the female staffs
lived.
In the
beginning, the pack of wolves just smelled the scent of lamb and came here.
Originally, Director Liu and the others were fine, but they opened their door
and were found out by the wolves, so the wolves also ran into their yurt.
After seeing
the wolves, Director Liu and others calmed down and began to call the local
villagers for help. Unfortunately, the villagers had all went to rest as it was
in the middle of the night, so no one answered even after several calls.
When
Director Liu was desperate, a villager finally answered the phone.
After
hearing Director Liu's request for help, the villager said that he would
organize the other villagers to come over immediately. Director Liu and
the others have already taken some camera tripods. There was no other way, all
the things inside this yurt should be used as a weapon. They stared outside, as
if as long as the wolves came in, they would fight to the death with the
wolves.
Xia Xia
wasn't much better here. One of the female staff could not hold on and began to
scream loudly and cry. As soon as one cried, the others couldn't help but also
started to cry. This sound caused the wolves outside to start wailing
too.
This cry
finally awakened Shen Tingshuang. Shen Tingshuang's hearing was different
from ordinary people, but the wolves didn't hit her yurt today, so Shen
Tingshuang didn't react at first.
There were a
total of four yurts. Xia Xia’s and Shen Tingshuang’s were located in the
middle, and the left and right ones were Director Liu’s and the male guests’.
Shen
Tingshuang got up.
Gu Yuan
said, "What's the matter?" As soon as she finished the question, she
heard the cry of the female staffs next door and, was those wolves’ howls outside? Gu
Yuan felt that she was probably drowsy and had auditory hallucinations.
Liu Jing
also got up: "How can wolf howls so clearly in the middle of the night?"
Gu Yuan was
stunned. It seemed that she didn't have an auditory hallucination. She put on a
coat, opened the door directly, and then came out.
Gu Yuan and
Liu Jing saw the scene in front of them and shouted, "Ahhhhhhhh!"
Qin Yueze
and the male guests also heard this, and they went out one after another.
As a result,
seeing the scene outside the yurt, Bai Hao suddenly felt that he couldn't even
talk anymore. Geng Chengyun directly staggered and fell to his knees. "Mom,
why there are so many wolves outside?"
Qin Yueze would
be lying if he said he was not afraid. He had seen wolves, but he had never
seen so many wolves appear together, and they all showed their sharp
teeth.
However,
Shen Tingshuang has already gone out. Qin Yueze didn't think much, and ran
to stand in front of Shen Tingshuang. When the wolves saw Qin Yueze rushing
out, they moved again. With teeth grinning, some wolves even began to howl
again.
Shen
Tingshuang pulled Qin Yueze back, clasped his arms calmly, and looked at the
wolves: "What do you want?"
The wolf alpha
howled twice and Shen Tingshuang understood it. She turned her head back to Qin
Yueze and said: "It's okay, you go back first."
After that, Shen
Tingshuang went to Xia Xia’s yurt and knocked on the door. She asked: "Xia
Xia, do you have roasted whole lamb left? Are you going to eat it?"
Xia Xia
almost thought that she was having a hallucination, was that really Shen
Tingshuang speaking outside?
The staffs
next to her looked at each other: "It seems like Shen Tingshuang is
outside."
Xia Xia
asked: "Are you Shen Tingshuang?" Just now, she heard the howls
of wolves.
Shen
Tingshuang: "It's me. There are a group of cute little ones outside your
yurt. They plan to ask you for some lamb. But if you still planning to eat,
then forget it."
"Little
cutie?" They heard it right, right? The wolves outside can be called cuties?
"It
should be really Shen Tingshuang?" The staff member said.
"Have
you ever seen wolves speak Chinese?"
"And
even the voice is so similar."
Xia Xia
walked slowly to the door, and then opened a little gap. Through the gap, she
saw that the person standing outside was really Shen Tingshuang. She
immediately opened the door but then saw the wolf behind Shen Tingshuang.
Xia Xia fell directly to the ground in fright.
Shen
Tingshuang came in to help her and asked about the mutton.
Xia Xia:
"No, you can have it." Xia Xia didn't know how she gave Shen
Tingshuang the remaining mutton. She felt that all the wolves were looking at
the meat in her hand so she passed them out of her hand quickly.
Shen Tingshuang
took the mutton, and then she walked to the alpha wolf, she handed the
lamb and said, "Don't do this next time, it will scare people."
The wolf howled
twice and the packs soon left.
...
Immediately
the outside of the yurts became quiet again, as if the wolves just now were
just an illusion.
Xia Xia
looked outside in shock: "They, really are gone?"
"Well,
the lamb smell in your yurt is too obvious, so they came here. Its fine now, you
can go back to bed. We still need to work tomorrow." Shen Tingshuang finished
speaking and returned to her own yurt.
How could
Xia Xia and others sleep! That was wolf outside just now. And it's not a wolf,
it's a pack of wolves. How could Shen Tingshuang not afraid at all?
No, this was
not the point. The point was that these wolves seemed to listen very well.
Could they even communicate?
When Shen
Tingshuang went back, she closed the door of her yurt by the way.
Several
people looked at the door and couldn't sleep but they couldn't sit like this
all the time. After all, they had to work tomorrow. So someone suggested:
"Director Xia, how if we put the bed together?" They really didn’t dare
to sleep alone anymore.
"Okay."
Several people put the beds together, and then they were ready to fall asleep.
Before going
to bed, Xia Xia called Director Liu and said that the wolves had gone. As for
the reason, she explained what happened entirely.
Director Liu
and others received the message and opened the door to look. There were indeed
no wolves outside. Director Liu called the villagers again, saying that they were
not needed anymore and reported that the wolves have left.
After
hanging up the phone, Director Liu and others still couldn't sleep. Who knew
if the wolves would come again?
...
Qin Yueze's
expression finally eased. Although he knew that Shen Tingshuang was not an
ordinary person, he would still get nervous if he encountered such a
thing.
Shen Tingshuang
saw that Qin Yueze and the two boys were still standing outside: "Go and
rest, it's not early."
When Shen
Tingshuang entered, Bai Hao and others reacted: "Tingshuang was
communicating with the wolf just now, right?"
Geng
Chengyun: "Are we dreaming?"
"Would
you like to wait till morning and see if it was?" Bai Hao suggested.
"Okay."
So everyone
went back to bed, but how could they sleep, everything in front of them was
telling what happened just now was true.
...
This night
passed, except for Shen Tingshuang, the rest of the people did not sleep much.
In comparison, Gu Yuan and Liu Jing were a little better. They were slightly
shocked, but later thought that Shen Tingshuang was there with them, they
didn’t have to be afraid.
...
When they
got up the next morning, Director Liu and others listened to Xia Xia's
description of what happened last night in the director's yurt, feeling quite
shocked.
Was this
fake? Shen Tingshuang was not afraid of wolves? Could she communicate with
wolves? No matter how you they rethink about it, they felt that it was
beyond the scope of their understanding.
It was not
only the show crew's that was confused, but Bai Hao and Geng Chengyun was also
puzzled. Because they didn't sleep well yesterday, they got up after 8 o'clock
in the morning.
The two got
up and looked at each other. They quickly confirmed that it was not a dream
last night. It really happened. Shen Tingshuang really drove away the
wolves and was able to communicate with them.
Everyone ate
breakfast in a daze, and then proceeded with today's activities. It was
also their last day in the prairie.
Today’s task
was archery. Xia Xia was still in shock because of yesterday, so she
didn't even think about what task would be embarrassing for the guests
today.
The
villagers waited for a while, but they got the notice from the director team
that said: "Today is archery, as for the others, wait until the archery is
over."
Soon, the
villagers took the guests to the archery place. The target was not far from
where they were standing. If they stood still, everyone’s accuracy rate would
be higher. However, the villagers have increased the difficulty and let
everyone shoot arrows while riding a horse.
Although Qin
Yueze has acted in period dramas and could shoot, those were all post-editing.
In reality, it was difficult to shoot while riding.
One guests
received ten arrows, in the attitude of ladies first, Liu Jing was the first to
shoot.
She was good
at equestrianism and was able to shoot arrows. But after 200 meters, she won
only two of the ten arrows in the end.
Bai Hao and
others thought Liu Jing was very good. Liu Jing was also satisfied.
Then there
was Gu Yuan. She was not riding fast. She shot only seven arrows within a range
of two hundred meters, but got three in. Everyone applauded.
Next was
Shen Tingshuang. At the moment Shen Tingshuang mounted her horse, Bai Hao
asked, "How many do you think Tingshuang can shoot?"
Geng
Chengyun: "At least five."
When Shen
Tingshuang was throwing arrows on the first recording before, Shen Tingshuang
shot ten in one go. Besides, Shen Tingshuang riding was also quite
powerful.
Bai Hao
looked at the person on his left: "Brother Ze, what do you think?"
Qin Yueze:
"All in."
"Huh?"
Bai Hao didn't seem to hear clearly.
Shen
Tingshuang had already begun to shoot arrows. She was not slow on horseback,
and she didn’t even slow down while releasing her arrows. The first arrow not
only hit the target, but also hit bullseye.
Geng
Chengyun: "It's so handsome!"
Bai Hao also
couldn't help but applaud.
Then Shen
Tingshuang took out the second arrow and pulled the bow to aim and shot. These series
of actions did not exceed five seconds.
Bai Hao
jumped up: "It hits bullseye again!"
The third,
the fourth, until the tenth target were all bullseye.
The
villagers’ smile on the opposite side gradually solidified, and then they
looked shocked.
Was this
still a human?
[F*ck, Ah
Shuang is domineering and mighty!]
...
This method
of archery at once was used a lot long ago, but now on the prairie, people can
have such good archery skills, but Shen Tingshuang, she did not live on the
prairie. Great. Perhaps stimulated by Shen Tingshuang, Qin Yueze hit
seven arrows, three of which were in the middle of the red heart. Bai Hao
needed to hunt at that time, not much.
Qin Yueze
and Geng Chengyun hit four and three respectively, but none of them got
bullseye.
[Why do I
always feel that these villagers want to worship Ah Shuang as their master?]
[To be
honest, I see that they are already on their knees. Ah Shuang hit all ten
arrows.]
...
Originally,
the guests got up a bit late and ate breakfast slowly, but when the archery was
over, it was just after twelve o'clock noon.
Xia Xia then
appeared. Her complexion was not very good, but she still had a smiling face:
"Dear viewers, the recording of the fourth issue of "Traveling
Together" is now over. Thank you for watching. The later version will be
broadcast at the same time next week."
[Ah? So
fast?]
[It’s only
noon, why don’t we continue recording?]
[It may take
a long time to get back to City B from there.]
...
The
villagers still wanted the guests to stay a little longer, but it’s just Xia Xia
and the others staffs that really didn’t want to be here.
The guests
followed Xia Xia back to the yurt and started packing, preparing to go to the
airport by bus.
The
villagers sent them away. For them, these guests were very good, especially the
Shen Tingshuang, she was too powerful. She was very suitable for living on
the prairie. They have persuaded several times and asked Shen Tingshuang to
stay, but it was a pity that Shen Tingshuang did not agree.
When in the
car, Xia Xia asked the staff to order a meal in a restaurant in the city.
Everyone ate
and continued the journey to the airport. When they arrived, the tickets for
the return trip were booked. It was the flight at 5 o’clock this afternoon.
They
actually could go to the airport in no hurry. It’s just that every time Xia Xia
sat in the yurt, as long as she heard movement outside, she would be so scared
that her heart jumped.
Upon
arriving at the waiting lounge, Liu Jing expressed the doubts in her heart:
"Why is this recording so fast?" She felt that she hasn't played
enough.
Xia Xia felt
relieved now, so she said: "I'm scared."
Director
Liu: "Last night was really scary." One of the staff of one of their
yurts fainted due to fear, and some of them even prepared to leave a will in
case they didn’t survive.
Gu Yuan
looked at Shen Tingshuang who was aside: "I don't know if it is my
illusion. You seem to be able to communicate with wolves?"
Shen
Tingshuang did not deny: "I can probably guess what they want to
say." Shen Tingshuang yesterday talked about the lamb. After the wolves
finally took the lamb, they really left.
After hearing
Shen Tingshuang’s explanation, everyone did not find it difficult to
accept.
Bai Hao on
the side worshiped: "Sister Shuang, can you teach us this?"
Shen
Tingshuang: "This is really not teachable, it's natural."
Everyone:
"...."
Although it was
incredible, it seemed like it was still impossible for them. Otherwise, how
could they not understand since the beginning?
...
Everyone was
chatting when Director Liu suddenly asked: "Where to record next time?"
Xia Xia
shook her head. She didn't dare to think about it. There was a flood last time.
This time there was no flood, but dozens of wolves came. It was just like a
flood, which scared people to death.
So, where
there is water, she doesn't want to go. She also didn't want to go to such
an empty place like the prairie again. Where could she go?
Qin Yueze
suggested: "Why don't we go to M City?" M city was a big city. There
were many kinds of snacks there. If Shen Tingshuang went there, she would definitely
like it.
Xia Xia's
eyes lit up. Why didn't they go to a crowded place with many police officers? Then
there would be nothing to be afraid of: "Okay! Go to M City!"
Furthermore, after the show became popular, tourism departments in many places have invited them to record in their area, including M City.
