Chapter 124: Chapter 121: The Student Who Learns So Well Even the Teacher Wants to Run Away (Part 1)

Old man: “………”

He finally couldn’t hold back, lifted his straw hat, “You’re trying to deceive me!”

Ji Xizhi smiled, “As long as it works!”

[Hahaha, hundred tricks, hundred success! At first, I wasn’t sure, but now it’s confirmed!]

[Wow, I was wondering why he suddenly fell out of nowhere, I even suspected it was staged by the crew, but… I can only say Ji Xizhi is awesome!]

[Ji Xizhi really has sharp attention, just now I was laughing at that vendor for foolishly falling, but then…]

[Oh, this batch of guests are experts! This season’s production team isn’t up to par!]

[The person upstairs, just say what you mean, okay? Direct your complaints at the directing world, and let’s see a tornado! (Anyway, the one being complained about is Director Wang, not my concern)]

A few guests nearby listened to Ji Xizhi’s words, all with mouths agape.

Bai Xing: “It really is!”

Ji Xizhi made room for Guan Fengyan, “Uncle Yan, you do the task!”

The old man saw that the task location was exposed and planned not to mention the specific task.

He hoped Guan Fengyan would just think he’s helping sell brooms.

The old man was scared of Ji Xizhi’s schemes and decided not to speak again.

Guan Fengyan also sat next to the old man, and indeed, he subconsciously thought he was helping sell brooms.

But before he approached, Ji Xizhi stopped him.

Ji Xizhi glanced at the bulging burlap sack beside the old man, pointed at the contents in the sack, and said to Guan Fengyan, “Maybe Uncle Yan, you need to make brooms on the spot, there should be materials in the bag.”

Old man: “??????”

He looked painfully at Ji Xizhi:

“Young lady, aren’t you filming a lifestyle variety show? Why are you acting like a scout?”

[Pfft, the old man is deeply hurt!]

[Scout hahaha, wasn’t the old man a soldier before?]

Along with the barrage, Ji Xizhi asked.

Ji Xizhi said, “Old man, were you a scout?”

The old man paused, “How did you know?”

Ji Xizhi showed sincerity, “I could tell, you concealed yourself well!”

One heartfelt compliment, and the old man immediately raised his tail.

He tossed the straw hat aside and began to chat excitedly with Ji Xizhi.

“Back in the day, when I was young, I served in the army, and back then I was indeed the best! The fact that your show found me means you found the right person!”

“Look at this location, I picked it, the outfit, I brought it myself! I even hid the cameras from your production team!”

“It’s just that there are no materials now, back then I was hiding in the mountains for three days…”

Once the old man started talking about his past, he was unstoppable.

Yet Ji Xizhi was genuinely interested in listening.

Occasionally, she interjected like a comedic sidekick, praising, “Wow~ You’re truly amazing.”

She elevated the old man to heights.

Once the old man felt proud, Ji Xizhi seized the chance to ask, “Old man, is there anything we should pay attention to when lurking or on stakeout? How to succeed? Any tips on camouflage?”

Ji Xizhi asked a flurry of questions, her expression showing a bit of anticipation.

This demeanor, in the eyes of the audience watching the livestream, it was as if she was in a classroom, doesn’t this look like a diligent student actively asking questions after the teacher’s lecture?

[Quite delicate, feels like attending an online class, though I didn’t understand a thing!]

[Zhi Zhi seems to be able to learn anywhere she goes, admire her learning speed and consciousness!]

The other guests looked at Ji Xizhi and the old man like they’d seen a ghost, unsure whether to interrupt their conversation.

What if Ji Xizhi had some plan?! Though the plan seemed rather off-track?

The guests just waited there, watching Ji Xizhi who seemed like a questioning machine.

“Which area on the mountain is better? What about if you encounter a deserted island?”

“When taking a winding route, are there things to avoid?”

“What particular points need attention when observing?”

…

The questioning eventually left the old man speechless.

Initially, he was delighted to have someone asking; but there were too many questions, some touching areas beyond his knowledge!

The old man started to evade, “Hey, why would a young lady like you need to learn these things?”

Ji Xizhi solemnly replied, “Self-defense.”

[??? Ji Xizhi… with those skills, does she need self-defense? Who would dare provoke her?!]

[Perhaps for the future? Personal safety is important even for lawyers!]

[@Escape Room official can you take a look at Ji Xizhi? Think of some methods, and snatch her up, Ji Xizhi is simply the chosen guest for your show!]

[Guys, you may have forgotten, that those skills Ji Xizhi showed, can any ordinary person manage them?]

The audience in the barrage, of course, didn’t know how many times Ji Xizhi had been messed with before; now that she’s encountered a retired scout, she instinctively started asking questions.

The old man, seeing Ji Xizhi’s sparkling eyes, felt both reluctant and incapable of answering.

He simply changed the topic, “Hey?! Haven’t you completed the production team’s task yet, how about we make brooms first!”

Guan Fengyan, having waited for long, upon hearing this, cheerfully responded, “Then would you please teach me!”

The old man, to avoid Ji Xizhi’s inquiries, instantly replied, “Teach! Absolutely must teach you! Come, let’s make brooms!”

After saying so, he turned to Ji Xizhi with remorse, “Young lady, let’s chat next time, I still need to finish the production team’s task!”

Ji Xizhi, having learned a lot from the old man’s previous conversation, even though a bit regretful, agreed.

“Alright, chat next time!”

[Respect! Ji Xizhi’s guidance here is impeccable! I give her top marks because there’s nothing to deduct!]

[Thinking about it, can studying law really make your mind and eloquence so efficient? I want to learn it; before this, I never thought about it, but after this episode, I want to learn!]

[Ji Xizhi: a student making teachers want to flee, wonder if her mentor is doing okay?]

[No, you shouldn’t ask her mentor, actually, I want to interview Ji Xizhi’s peers~]

The audience was discussing fervently.

In the office, Chu Ang sneakily watched his little junior sister and forcefully typed three words on the phone.

[I! Am!! Good!!!]

–

On-site, Guan Fengyan remained to do the task, while Sheng Yaoyao took the others to shop for some vegetables and meat to bring back.

Guan Fengyan decided to give everyone pocket money, considering the fare, money for rice; now there’s hardly any money left.

Sheng Yaoyao had never shopped for groceries, but clutching this bit of money, she was somewhat worried, “With this money, we probably can’t buy much!”

Zhong Yulu was the first to hand his five dollars to Sheng Yaoyao, “Sister Yaoyao, I didn’t spend it; we can buy together!”

Sheng Yaoyao smiled and refused, “This was for you guys to buy snacks, keep it! Uncle Yan gave it; I wouldn’t dare take it back! I’ll try to bargain later!”

Zhu Xiu’an, following from behind, heard Sheng Yaoyao’s conversation with Zhong Yulu, and stepped forward boldly saying, “No worries, I can use my charm!”
