Chapter 536: Chapter 536: Truth or Dare
Yu Li first fell silent for a while, then slowly began to speak.
“Actually… Young Master Jiang, have you ever considered that it might not be the sachet that’s the problem, but perhaps it’s you?”
Jiang Yan: “What do you an?”
No sooner had he spoken than he fell silent.
Upon reflection, it seed there really was sothing mystical clinging to him.
Back in Chixia Village, all the small animals were especially fond of him, starting with the crabs that Wen Jiaojiao had scattered all heading in his direction, then the uncontrollable bull chasing after him, followed by Richard the chicken who wouldn’t stop pursuing him, and finally, during the ga, the sow that kept snuggling up to him.
Since joining this show, things had only escalated, with even the danger level of the animals doubling.
The more Jiang Yan thought about it, the more his scalp tingled, and finally, he slapped the ground in frustration.
“From now on, I’m never doing any variety shows again!”
Yu Li: “….”
Audience: “….”
Is this really an issue with the variety show?!
As if by telepathy, just after Jiang Yan finished speaking, their watches sounded a familiar ringtone—
It was the exclusive notification tone of the production team.
Subconsciously, a few people exchanged glances.
Shang Shuyue swallowed the snake at in her mouth, “Why is the director coming out to update the rules at this ti? During the midday.”
Jiang Li shook his head, indicating he didn’t know.
Following that, a sowhat sexy voice ca from the watch—
“Good afternoon, dear guests. I’m sorry to disturb you at this ti, but considering that you all should have finished your midday rest by now, I ca to share so news.”
“Previous rules still apply. According to the previous progress, by the end of yesterday’s live broadcast, Team Y was in the lead, so Team Y will receive a bonus of 1,000 points.”
“However, to encourage everyone to continue exploring, I’ve decided that the progress points will be doubled every day. So today, the team that travels the farthest will receive 2,000 points.”
This news excited all the contestants on the entire island.
Double the points every day! Won’t it be 4,000 points by tomorrow?! This new director is really sothing!
Bai Lu also excitedly shook Jiang Li’s arm, “Lili, did you hear that? It doubles every day. If we push a bit harder we might really have a chance to compete for first place.”
Jiang Li, however, just smiled, “Haven’t you all noticed the loophole in this rule?”
Everyone looked blank.
“The reward for moving forward has indeed increased, but I believe you’ve also noticed that the inner paths are difficult to navigate, the environnt is harsher, and accordingly, the needed supplies will beco more and more…”
But today’s supply prices have more than doubled compared to yesterday’s.
Only the leading team could possibly benefit from the point increase.
In other words, the lagging teams would only see their survival environnt deteriorate due to the lack of supplies.
Clearly, He Pingzhang was even more adept at calculations than Zheng Xun.
[Damn, Sister Li is telling the truth, that really is how it is.]
[Didn’t expect the new director to be an old fox too!]
[As expected, the people sent by the Gu Group are different.]
He Pingzhang, watching the comnts about him in the live chat, was not annoyed. On the contrary, he even enjoyed it.
After all, he quite liked his current status and the level of discussion it brought.
In the past, he could only exert his influence within a small area of the Gu Mansion, but now, he controlled a much larger public opinion arena.
Thrilling.
With this in mind, He Pingzhang curled his lips and continued to announce the rules.
“Additionally, considering that there are not many entertainnt activities for everyone on the island, we’ve decided, after discussion, to add so fun, also as a way to pass the ti.”
“Right now, there’s a roulette wheel behind . Wherever the pointer lands, that’s the ga you’ll play.”
As he spoke, another cara quietly activated.
It was inside the director’s room.
The screen imdiately showed several staff mbers and a man sitting in a sofa chair, dressed in a dark brown suit.
He Pingzhang’s face wasn’t shown, but just a glimpse of his body caused countless netizens to scream.
[Ahhh oh my, is that Director He?!]
[I knew Director He was the ascetic type! That suit, that figure, those leather shoes, phenonal!]
[Damn it, can the cara guy move it up a bit?!]
“Now I’m going to spin the roulette wheel….”
He said, resting his hand on the wheel.
That hand, with distinct knuckles and even veins slightly visible, once again let the audience’s imagination run wild, and in no ti, the viewership of the director’s room livestream skyrocketed.
The cara then focused on the wheel.
It was divided into twelve sections, each marked with a different ga na—Cat and Mouse, Statue, Hide and Seek, Gomoku, and so on, a wide variety.
He Pingzhang casually spun the pointer, and it ca to rest on Truth or Dare.
“Ah, looks like I’ve chosen an interesting ga for everyone.”
The audience was perplexed.
The contestants were on a deserted island, in a survival reality show, how could they play Truth or Dare?
But He Pingzhang next cleared up the confusion.
“Don’t worry, the ga can definitely be played.”
“The rules of Truth or Dare are that the guests must find another team within an hour to play the ga. The questions to ask and the dares are all updated in your respective watches.”
“Each guest who completes the task or truthfully answers a question in each round will receive 200 points; if not, they will lose 200 points.”
“Whoever forfeits or fails to find a partner within an hour will be automatically eliminated.”
“Have fun playing.”
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Elimination if one can’t find a partner to play the ga within an hour?!
What kind of bizarre rule was this?!
Having heard this, Zhao Lang, who was on his way, sneered right then and there.
Damn that He Pingzhang, using every trick in the book to stop him from eting Jiang Li!
Where could he find soone to play the ga with now?!
On the other side, Team L, who had also left the base after receiving the ssage, fell silent.
Ren Yue was sowhat speechless.
“Did the new director pull this stunt because he’s afraid the show would lack ratings?”
Shang Shaojing didn’t say a word.
His silence was because he had recognized the voice as He Pingzhang’s from the start.
The replacent of Zheng Xun shocked him, and He Pingzhang’s arrival was even more unexpected.
He knew He Pingzhang was the old man’s assistant, but now he was on a variety show, which was unheard of.
Sothing big must have happened in the Gu Family while he was away.
Too bad, now stuck on this island, he couldn’t find out anything.
“Since it’s the new rule, let’s just follow it then.”
