Chapter 766 - 765: Giant Flapping Moth

After a brief discussion within the team, the director announced the move to the third game location.

No immediate allocation of points was required on site.

Mu Qiu and Lin Lian exchanged a glance and followed the main group forward.

They first changed their clothes, dried their hair, and did their makeup.

This time, it was a normal makeup.

With the camera always rolling, a few quick-moving male guests took care of entertaining the audience in front of the camera, frequently greeting the lens whether there was anything to say or not.

The fans were very excited and didn’t mind that others took a little longer.

The venue they went to this time was Kite Road, where she found the pink turtle pig. Both sides had flower beds and vegetable gardens, providing a wide view with a gentle breeze.

Is the final game really about snatching points? The open space here at Kite Road isn’t wide enough for running.

Could it really be a special snatching game at a designated place or with specific people?

Mu Qiu thought while walking, several ideas flashing through her mind.

Once everyone was present and the camera was ready, the director announced the rules for the third game.

"Third game: Lazy Fish Lie-down. Although the name sounds lazy, everyone should be able to guess, this is a point-snatching game.

Each guest wears a specially made inflatable mattress on their back, and appoints a person to play rock-paper-scissors. The losing team becomes the first round of snatchers, and the other guests automatically become snatchees.

If someone gets caught, the snatchee automatically loses five points which are transferred to the snatcher, and the snatchee automatically becomes the next round of snatcher.

Meanwhile, snatchees can also call out any three-word phrase and lie flat on the ground to automatically ’hibernate,’ avoiding being snatched.

However, hibernating guests need to deduct two points and wait for teammates to rescue them to wake up. Rescuing teammates also requires deducting two points from the rescuer.

There is no limit to hibernating or rescuing. The only restriction is the number of rescuers. More than three people can’t rescue the same person.

For example, if Guan Yu hibernates five times and gets rescued all five times, those rescuing her can only be Shu Ran, Mu Qiu, and Brother Huai, meaning someone must repeatedly deduct points for repeated rescues.

Of course, you can also choose not to rescue, after six minutes any hibernating person not rescued automatically exits the game, with their points set to the lowest number among present guests.

When snatchers catch someone lying down hibernating, they can grab them into Kite Road, which is the snatchers’ base.

If the game starts and after an hour someone is hibernating at Kite Road for ten minutes without rescue, the game ends."

Guan Yu’s eyebrows furrowed into a caterpillar shape: "Isn’t this just like that kid’s game of tag? It’s so childish."

Shu Ran was also very resistant: "Having a mattress strapped to your back is just too weird."

Chuchu: "If it’s an odd-looking mattress, that’s even stranger."

Shi Yuhuai: "Are we supposed to play giant moth flapping?"

Director: "......"

Only Li Yang and Mu Qiu seemed very excited: "Can we have a nap right here? Can I lie down for five minutes later on?"

The director nodded: "As you wish."

Mu Qiu, her expression excited: "Then I’m gonna find a good spot to lie down first!"

Shu Ran teased her: "Can you be more competitive? If you lie down and no one rescues you, you’re done for!"

She was quite assured: "I’ll lie down in the middle of the road, surely someone will rescue me. Don’t worry, I’m different from you all, I have teammates."

Shu Ran felt a stab in her chest.

"This game is unfair..."

Guan Yu covered her mouth: "Come on, listen to me, one-two-three, zip it, I’m so tired of hearing ’unfair.’"

Shu Ran: "..."

Her tea-making skills had nowhere to be displayed.

A few newcomers nearby couldn’t help but laugh.

The director watched them clown around, treating their complaints as if he couldn’t hear them. Once they quieted, he timely interjected:

"But before the game starts, you all need to allocate your points first. You have five minutes to inform me of the allocation results."

"I don’t need five minutes, I can tell you now," Guan Yu said, "should I shout it out loud or whisper it to you?"

Director: "If you want to shout out loud, I wouldn’t mind."

"Alright, everyone listen up! I’m at two points! Zhang Li at ten points, Chuchu at fourteen points! Everyone should go for Zhang Li, not me!"

Zhang Li: "......"

Mu Qiu scoffed: "Brag away, even the cows in the sky would bow in awe. This is obviously fake, what you report later surely won’t be this, otherwise getting caught once won’t even deduct enough points."

Just two points, not enough deduction for being caught once, she wasn’t that foolish.

Guan Yu chuckled: "You don’t believe! I’d also like to take more points, but we have so few in total, not enough to spread! I’ll just randomly take a few and find a place to hibernate."

"I don’t believe you."

"Then forget it, I rarely speak truth, and you don’t believe it."

After speaking, she approached the director, whispered: "I’m seven points, Chuchu seven points, Zhang Li twelve points."

The director glanced at her, showing a "I told you, I know your nature" expression, and then sternly said:

"This guest, whispering with the director is forbidden. Can’t you use gestures or write a note instead?"

Guan Yu: "......"

Never mind, suit yourself.

After her, others also whispered with the director, ignoring restrictions, insisting on close whispers.

Mu Qiu: "I’m thirty-four points, Lin Lian thirty points. Can you hear me, director?"

Director: "... If your voice gets any quieter, I’d think you’re sighing."

Shi Yuhuai: "I’m seven points, Jiang Zhufeng fifteen points. Could you give a little friendship bonus?"

Director: "Are you bargaining with me?!"

Li Yang: "Director, I..."

Director: "You can leave. What’s the point of assigning points for one person?!"

Li Yang: "...Hmph."

Cheng Zhirang: "I’m twenty points, Xu Cheng twenty points, Bai Shu thirty-two points."

Director: "Alright."

He had given up struggling, and even when Cheng Zhirang leaned in to whisper, he proactively listened.

"Now the point allocation is finished, the third game officially begins. Get on the mattress!"

The staff had already prepared, lifting the black cloth in the objects area nearby, revealing more than a dozen colorful inflatable mattresses, some with black straps on them.

There was even an attached neck pillow on the mattress.

Mu Qiu stood on tiptoe watching, noticing a staff member bringing the longest pink mattress towards Shi Yuhuai.

"...It’s a terrifying pink giant flapping moth, Brother Huai, run!"

Shi Yuhuai bolted immediately.

"I don’t want this!"

The staff, looking wicked, dragging the mattress to catch up.

"Brother Huai, it’s specially made for you! Only this has a length of over 1.9 meters! Your fans said it’s your favorite color!"

Shi Yuhuai’s whole body spelled refusal, even his running silhouette showed a stubborn stance.

"That’s definitely not my fan!"

The staff wearing a mask and sun hat, face unclear, only an excited voice heard: "I don’t care, this is yours! Brother Huai, wait up!"

Shi Yuhuai dashed past Kite Road: "I’m not wearing that! Take it away!"
