Chi Qingzhou smiled and greeted Lu Man, who had gotten up early, and enthusiastically asked Lu Man if his sister had come in a dream.

Lu Man held back his smile and answered no, and once again promised that if his sister came in a dream, he would definitely help Mr. Chi convey his intention to make friends.

Chi Qingzhou got the guarantee and let Lu Man leave with satisfaction.

He was not worried at all that Lu Man would coax him.

People like him who have entered the world of esoteric arts have very accurate premonitions. Long before he participated in this program, he felt that good things would happen.

Now it seemed that maybe he could get everything he wanted.

Chi Qingzhou was in a good mood. His smile was still very real until the show started at 8:30.

Seeing his beautiful smile, the fans couldn't help but start licking the screen.

Although there were internet trolls in the livestream room to lead the rhythm, the fans remained the same.

In less than half an hour, the internet trolls suddenly stopped, and the barrage became very fresh for a while, and the mood of other viewers also became relaxed and happy.

It was at this time that Lu Man announced that the guests had successfully conquered the mushroom pickers and could start the next task.

The old man in charge of guiding the mushroom picking came out from behind Lu Man, gestured and said a few not-so-standard Chinese words, and greeted the guests.

He looked to be in his early sixties, with a weathered face and a healthy dark skin. Under the unique clothes of the Puluo tribe, he showed strong tendon meat. It was obvious that he was in good health.

Lu Man said with a smile, "It is well known that people in Qunqing Province love to eat mushrooms. Every year, many people are poisoned by eating mushrooms, so they watch TV dramas facing the white wall or play games with dancing little people hand in hand."

Since this program also meant to promote Yinping Village, the unique link of picking mushrooms was of course indispensable.

It was very dangerous to pick or eat poisonous wild mountain mushrooms. For safety reasons, a guide was indispensable.

This old man was recommended by the head of Yinping Village and was the person who was most familiar with picking mushrooms in the entire Yinping Village.

He had more than 40 years of experience in picking mushrooms and knew every mountain around the entire Yinping Village.

Where to find mushrooms, where they grow in abundance, and how to distinguish between different types—these were all deeply ingrained in his mind.

With him around, at least the guests wouldn't run into any major trouble.

Still, considering that some wild mushrooms were highly toxic, the old man sternly warned them several times.

The guests, however, looked completely confused.

The Puluo people had their own language, and since the old man was already quite elderly, his Mandarin wasn't very fluent. The more critical the information, the more he subconsciously switched to Puluo language—so it was perfectly normal that the guests couldn't understand him.

The director smiled in satisfaction and was just about to cue Lu Man to announce how much it would cost to hire a translator when Chi Qingzhou stepped forward and started conversing with the old man directly.

Several guests' eyes lit up immediately.

Chi Qingzhou understood the Puluo language?!

Liang Ji waited for Chi Qingzhou to finish the conversation, and immediately stepped forward to ask, "Xiao Chi, have you learned Puluo language?"

Chi Qingzhou said vaguely, "For research."

Several guests then remembered that Chi Qingzhou majored in religious studies at Renmin University, and might really use the language of ethnic minorities in research.

They hurriedly asked, "What did the old man say just now?"

Chi Qingzhou replied, "He told us that there are said to be more than 700 kinds of wild mushrooms in the mountains nearby, and many of the poisonous and non-toxic ones look very similar. He told us that no matter what kind of mushrooms we picked, we must take them to him for identification and only keep them if they are non-toxic."

The guests nodded, repeatedly promised to be careful, and asked, "Did the old man say anything else?"

Chi Qingzhou said, "The old man also reminded me that Yinping Village is very close to the Puluo tribe's land, and we must follow him closely when we go up the mountain to pick mushrooms. The Puluo tribe has always valued the tribe's land, and even the tribe members cannot approach it at will. If we accidentally break in..."

He curled his lips and laughed softly.

Obviously he looked so good when he smiled, and his voice was so clear and pleasant, but for some reason, the guests could feel a creepy smell from him.

They subconsciously agreed, even Chi Qingning, who had other plans in mind, was very honest at this moment, and promised with others to follow the old man closely.

Chi Qingzhou negotiated with the old man again and quickly finalized the time and route to go up the mountain. The program team had nothing to do during the whole process.

After the old man went back to pack up, Zhong Lingshu had some free time and asked Lu Man casually, "Who is the young man next to you?"

Lu Man said with a slightly numb expression, "Oh, this is the translator we invited who knows Puluo language. If you need it, you can spend 400 yuan to hire this translator for a day..."

Zhong Lingshu immediately said, "No, we have Xiao Chi!"

Everyone agreed, even Chi Qingning said, "We have just agreed with the old man to stay with him. With second brother here, we will not be unable to communicate."

Program team: "..."

The director couldn't do anything with the guests. He looked at Chi Qingzhou with resentment and could only let them go.

Who would have thought that a young artist who was stuffed into the variety show by the investor would be the biggest bug of this season.

Chi Qingzhou smiled back at the director with a deep look in his eyes.

He didn't like anyone disturbing his friends who needed quiet time.

Moreover, he was not very patient when it came to Xing Shuangzhan's affairs.

He hoped Zhu Yantong could move faster and not let him wait too long.

At this time of the livestream of "Scenery Along the Way" in Yinping Village, it was the season with the most abundant rain in the area.

Yesterday at midnight, there was a drizzle here, and most of the wild mushrooms in the mountains near the village emerged.
