Chapter 160 Bear It Even If You Can’t
Long Xi asked the others. This game named “Chicken Catching”. Whoever could catch 12 chickens in five minutes could gain 12 chips and a basket of fruit picked up from the tree. Otherwise, one would lose 12 chips and could not touch any fruit on the trees.
They walked to one chicken coop.
They found that a man in a black suit was standing by the coop and looked at the four players who were trying to catch those agile chickens. Even if someone fell down during the game, the man in black still showed no expression on his face.
Xiaolu thought this game was really interesting and planned to join it. He said at once, “This game is about agility, which is my strength. I will join it! Master Xi, Bai Bing, will you come with me?”
Long Xi said, “I can’t respond at a fast speed.”
Bai Bing was very disgusted and said, “I am afraid of this kind of animal with sharp tongue.”
Long Xi smiled and raised two of thumbs to say, “I am watching out on you! You’re an expert of catching chickens!”
“Well!” Xiaolu made a few preparatory exercise and jumped into the chicken coop.
He was really good at it. Jump fast like walking with dainty steps. Each of his hand could catch a chicken, like picking up the moon or stars.
He put two chickens he caught in a cage and went for other chickens.
Five minutes later, he caught 12 chickens!
BINGO, he not only got chips, but also won a bamboo basket. The black judge suggested him to pick up fruit on the tree.
Long Xi said to Xiaolu, “I am good at climbing tree, so I can pick up the fruit.”
She carried the basket and climbed on to a dense tree with a lot of fruit. She picked up a whole basket and threw some down to his teammates.
Xiaolu, Yan Wangchuan, and Bai Bing caught fruit under the tree and behaved like kids. They seemed to forget the dangers of this “trip”. It showed out a scene of harvest, haha!
Although the fruit was a little bit acor, it could be a good breakfast for them.
They walked for another two hours and finally reach the top of the mountain.
Then, they were totally stunned.
They saw a three-story tower at the top of the mountain with a clear spring nearby. Plenty of players were surging over there, some of whom were lifting a palm of water to drink, some of whom used bottles to take in water, while some of whom used gourd scoops to fill the water.
Those who were close to the spring were almost strong men or some strong women.
Some others like the old and weak were standing outside, blocking the way to get close to the spring and trying to get to the first line.
Long Xi saw Yamamoto Shang was close to the spring without Weiwei’s trace.
Xiaolu handed the parcel to Long Xi. Exchanging an eye contact with Yan Wangchuan, he took four bamboo tubes and prepared to find a way in the crowd.
Long Xi suddenly stopped Xiaolu and took out a few chips from the parcel, whispering her plan to him.
Xiaolu and Yan Wangchuan understood and took the bamboo tubes to walk by the side of a fat man standing in the second line.
Then, Long Xi stood under a big tree in the distance.
Long Xi carried the parcel and climbed up to the tree easily to hide the parcel into the big hole of the tree.
Then, Long Xi climbed down and walked behind a large stone. She immediately started her performance, speaking loudly to granny Piao, “Hey, granny, there are some chips under the stone!”
Granny Piao cooperated to rush towards her.
Bai Bing also ran over and said, “Wow, there are so many chips. Give me some!”
Long Xi shouted in disdain, “Who are you? I found it first. Why should I give you some?”
Granny Piao reached out and pushed Bai Bing away.
Bai Bing came to grab the chips in Long Xi’s hands. Their movements and expressions were very realistic.
Bai Bing was trained in her performance while Long Xi had talent in this.
Granny Piao also behaved anxiously.
In this way, several people in the crowd were fooled, and immediately ran over to see what happened. Obviously, they planned to seize a chance to rob something.
When the crowd’s attention was attracted by them, Xiaolu and Yan Wangchuan hurried to get through the crowds and filled their bottles. They drank enough water and filled the four bamboo tubes. Then, quickly evacuated.
Over the stone, the performance was done. When the people saw the three women were only grabbing a few chips, they immediately abused them as “a few silly birds.”
They saw that there were no name brands on the three women’s back, so they rejoined the ranks of water competition with swearing.
Yamamoto Shang grinned when seeing this scene. He was proud of himself in secret, “Fortunately, I am alert enough, or I will be fooled! Don’t underestimate these little devils. They are so cunning!”
Long Xi got the water they needed and left this troublesome place with water in a hurry.
They walked ten more steps and drank some water. Then, they planned to go somewhere to look for equipment.
Suddenly, they saw Qiuzi in a far distance.
Qiuzi who was dressing in kimono sat under a large pine tree to drink tea causally. With a delicate round silk fan in her hand, she looked at them with a smile.
A long table was placed in front of her with seven brown pots on it, which looked like jars of old fashion wines. The belly was big but the jar was small.
Long Xi felt bad.
Xiaolu said, “I have an ominous premonition!”
Qiuzi smiled and said in blunt Chinese, “Good morning, the early birds will always catch more insects. Since you come here so early, you really want to play this game. Since it is so, I shall announce the rules of this game. The seven pots on the table, I believe you have seen them. The rule is that each of the players should put his hand into one pot. Whoever can last the longest will be the winner and get 120 chips. The other lost six should accept the punishment and hand out 20 chips.”
Long Xi said, “This should be called Wait For You to Fall In the Trap. Sister Qiuzi, we have only five members, so you should find two more. It seems that we can’t join the game!”
Xiaolu echoed, “Yes, it’s a pity!”
Long Xi made an eye contact with the others. Before they planned to leave, Qiuzi said with a smile, “Don’t leave so fast. You see, there are a few coming over there.”
Long Xi followed her fingertip and saw four fierce and sturdy men coming over. They were all white people.
Qiuzi told them the rules. Three of their four would be willing to join this game.
Qiuzi said to Long Xi, “They have three to participate, so you should choose four.”
Long Xi turned back to discuss with her teammate and decided to ask granny Piao to have a rest over there.
Each of the seven players selected a pottery jar and the game was about to begin.
At this time, several players came here and watched this game.
Qiuzi looked at her watch and said, “ACTINON!”
Seven players simultaneously put one of their hands into the pot.
“Ah, it’s too hot. It’s too hot.” The pottery Long Xi had chosen was full of hot liquid. As she put her hand inside, she could not bear it. Tendons stood out under the pale skin over her forehead while her hand felt sore because of hotness.
She secretly blamed this vicious game and glared at Qiuzi.
It was undoubtedly the most painful thing for one to put the hand into the hot liquid.
However, despite this, she was not willing to take out her hand. After all, the winner could get 120 chips!
She glanced at the players next to her, finding that Xiaolu showed a terrified expression. He seemed to have touched something horrible.
She asked Xiaolu, “Brother Lu, what did you touch?”
Xiaolu said, “I don’t know. It’s fluffy and can move. Ah, it bit me!”
Bai Bing exclaimed and shouted with anger, “Yuk, I’d rather die than to suffer this!”
When she spoke, she brought out her hand.
Long Xi saw her hand was bleeding and asked, “Were you bitten by the thing?”
Bai Bing showed out a disgusting expression and said, “Yes, I don’t know what it is. It has smooth skin. I guess it may be a snake! I am afraid of this animal the most!”
Long Xi thought, “Are the horrible things in the seven pots different? So, this is about luck and whether one can overcome fear!”
Long Xi looked at Yan Wangchuan and found that he was serious but not scared. His state was obviously much better than everyone else’s.
Long Xi asked, “Brother Wangchuan, what’s in your pot?”
Yan Wangchuan said, “It’s ice water. It’s fine. I have adapted to it and don’t feel too bad! I am afraid of heat, but fine with coldness!”
People around were all holding their breath when seeing different expressions on the players’ faces. Their expression undoubtedly added a horrible atmosphere for the surroundings.
At that time, two of the three white men had already taken out their hands.
The last white man behaved calm and seemed to feel nothing in his pot.
Xiaolu could not bear it and extremely pain appeared on his face.
He wanted to take out his hand but the animal in the pot kept biting his hand.
He smashed it fiercely onto the ground. The broken pieces scattered everywhere. A small feline ran away like an arrow. With some rust spots on its body, it might be a rusted leopard cat.
That kind of rusty-spotted leopard cat was a wild feline with a small body. Weighing only one kilogram, it was ranked as the smallest cat in the world, along with the black-footed cat.
Long Xi felt weird and said, “Shouldn’t that kind of cat live in India or Sri Lanka? How could it appear here? Moreover, even if it’s tiny, how could a cat of a kilogram in weight be inside this small jar that just allows a hand to get in?”
Unless it had been stuffed inside the pot when it was young.
Long Xi felt sore in her mind when seeing Xiaolu’s hand was hurt so badly; flesh had been bitten away with blood dropping down!
Bai Bing’s eyes were getting wet; she took out a roll of white gauze and wound cream from the package, then helped him to bandage the wound. Those were part of the equipment they had found on their way.
Two minutes later, Long Xi had reached her limit, and asked Yan Wangchuan, “Brother Wangchuan, can you stick to the end?”
