Chapter 241: Selling Children?
In the early morning, the contestants gathered around the long table to eat the breakfast provided by the program team, and in the past, the villagers of Lime disdained their "modern food", but this time more than a dozen villagers came over uncharacteristically and surrounded the long table with an unkind expression.
"What's wrong?" Out of professional instinct, Jingchuan still asked. The black-faced villager at the head glared at him fiercely, and said in a muffled voice: "Last night, some of your people sneaked into our kitchen without warning without permission. This behavior ...... Never forgive, they have to pay the price. ”
Jingchuan raised an eyebrow, but then, just as he had agreed with the contestants when he was on the ship, the people of the production team shrugged and took a few steps back. signaled that the villagers were free to seek revenge or punishment, and they would not interfere in this matter.
The black-faced villager searched the long table a few times with a gloomy face, and suddenly, his rough fingers pointed straight to the place where Qiu Xuan was sitting, "You, come out." ”
Sitting in the chair, he raised an eyebrow, and his eyes did not shy away from glancing at the villager. "It's my business, I didn't even come out of the room yesterday."
"I said, you, come out!"
The villager accentuated his tone, Pu Fan's big hand unceremoniously wanted to catch her, a slender gentleman's cane blocked his arm, and Ethan sat next to him, his face a little pale but still strong to cheer up. "She said that it wasn't her, even if the program team doesn't care, you have to pay attention to evidence when you arrest people."
"So many of us have seen it with our own eyes!"
"Do you see my face clearly?" Qiu Xuan raised her eyes to look at the angry villagers, and her tone was light. "Who wouldn't talk without evidence, let me ask you, do you really see clearly, is that person me?"
Some villagers in the crowd hesitated, after all, the man had been nimble last night, and he was wearing a hood that covered most of his face, and it was impossible to confirm that he could really see his face clearly.
The black-faced villager stared at her face viciously, as if trying to find evidence of her lying through an unnatural look. After a while, he frowned fiercely, and then turned his head to glance at the crowd.
"There were three people last night, and there were two men besides you."
"You." His finger suddenly pointed at Qin Jiuyuan, who was standing next to Ethan to shoot, paused, and said, "There is another one who didn't come, and he broke an arm." ”
"Hey, it's even more outrageous." Ethan said helplessly: "This brother is my cameraman, I didn't go out at all last night, so why did he go out alone." Also, didn't Qiu Xuan say it all, you don't know what that person looks like, why do you slander people like this? ”
"Shut up!" This time, it was a woman next to the black-faced villager who spoke, and the woman was holding her belly, and it seemed that it was the pregnant woman Qiu Xuan met last time. "Whether it's them or not, just come with us. Don't worry, they ...... It's over, and the rest is you. ”
Qing Baichuan sneered loudly, wiped his hands and seemed to be unable to watch this farce anymore, the woman stood up with a long knife on her shoulder, and looked down at the crowd condescendingly. "Since it has nothing to do with us, then I'll go, and you guys play slowly."
"Wait."
Suddenly, a small villager in the crowd spoke, he looked at Qing Baichuan carefully for a few seconds, and then turned back to whisper to the black-faced villager. "You see, the shape of that woman last night, she seems to fit in."
"Hmm." The black-faced villager nodded, "You, stay too." ”
Qing Baichuan sneered absurdly, as if he couldn't accept these "low-level primitive people" to talk nonsense with her here. "Yes, then I'm going to leave today, I'll see who dares to stop me."
The black-faced villager stared at her coldly, waved his hand behind him, and in an instant, dozens of villagers surrounded the place, each with a sharp spear in his hand.
"Want to fight?"
The cold inorganic blue electric light flashed from Qing Baichuan's eyes, and the woman snorted and raised the long knife in her hand. "It's just right, seeing that you low-level people have been unhappy for a long time, let's end it all at once this time!"
Some people from the filming crew pulled Lajingchuan's sleeve worriedly, and the man with transparent glasses stared at it for a few seconds, and suddenly smiled. "Leave it alone, let them fight...... It just so happens that the material for this issue is there, isn't it? ”
The woman with the long knife and red lips swept across the blade, and the electric current swept towards the nearest black-faced villager with the momentum of Wan Jun. And the villager stood still like a mountain, and in the center of the flickering thunder and lightning seemed to faintly hear his disdainful sneer.
Mo Fang glanced over here a few times, and Patton's "Are you going to help?" He turned around in question. Sounds like it has nothing to do with us, doesn't it? Besides, those inferior people can't do anything about Qingbaichuan, so why waste this time. ”
As he spoke, he walked back seemingly leisurely, and Barton took one last look at the woman who was fighting with the black-faced villagers, then shook his head and turned around. In the team of the "high-end plane", there was only that woman left, she pursed her lips as she watched the back of her ally leave, and still chose to stand with Qing Baichuan.
Just as Ethan wanted to turn around and ask something, Qiu Xuan automatically turned his head to meet his gaze. "There is a whereabouts for those who are missing, they have been eaten by the villagers of Lyme."
"Eat...... What did you say? ”
Ethan was stunned, as if he hadn't reacted to how the topic suddenly shifted in an unpredictable direction. Qiu Xuan probably told him about sneaking into the kitchen last night, Ethan's face became more and more ugly, and listening in silence, Qiao suddenly glanced at Qin Jiuyuan behind him.
Joe: If I'm not mistaken, I'm her follow-up.
Qin Jiuyuan: Hah.
Joe:......???
The man they saw last night who was hung on a meat hook should be the first man to be eliminated based on his size. Although his head had been cut off, and nothing else could be found to confirm his identity, the cameraman who had disappeared together was lying on a cutting board next to him, if he had guessed correctly.
And the meat boiling in the cauldron is Lina's.
Ethan: "So that Barry shouldn't be lying, Lena really didn't kill her, but the Lyme villagers." ”
"If that's the case, it's too arrogant to kill players in broad daylight."
On the other hand, when the conversation between them was broadcast live to the world simultaneously, all the people who were watching the live broadcast were also shocked, especially after what Qin Jiuyuan's camera captured was uploaded together last night.
Although it is said that under the condition that the law on the entertainment industry is not so sound, it is not impossible for people to make pictures that have no bottom line several times. But after being forced to rectify, some pictures that are too contrary to human ethics have been banned for a long time, and in fact, what people are really angry and shocked is not the matter of "cannibalism", but the cannibals are those Lyme villagers who have been automatically classified as "low-level human low-level technology", but they are people who have a high-end scientific and technological frontier.
That's what really makes them unacceptable.
It's like a slave raised by a nobleman who one day kills his master, and not only that, but also uses the most primitive and humble means of killing. The slave was not qualified to use firearms, knives and other weapons, so he picked up a large rock and threw it at his master, and in this way, he stoned the man to death little by little.
The inexplicable sense of superiority that unconsciously put oneself in the "higher human race" made the masses unable to accept such a thing, and the angry people began to send e-mails to the "Live Game" program team, and some people complained about the indifference of Jingchuan and others, and even insulted these contestants on the star network One by one, they were all rubbish, and they were swallowed by a group of primitive humans.
In this way, the inaction and ignorance of the production team behind the company continued to ferment the incident, and finally many people who had given up on this live broadcast program also picked it up because of the popularity, and the ratings of "Live Game" finally reached the peak in the same type of live broadcast on this day.
If it weren't for the fact that the production team specially concealed the location of Lime Village, I am afraid that many people would have flocked to see the excitement by now.
In a room in a coastal town, a family of four is sitting at a dining table and absentmindedly picking up food.
The only piece of furniture in the family that can be regarded as magnificent and luxurious is the huge display screen in the living room, at this time, a girl wearing a hood is playing above and fighting with the villagers, and the next second I don't know what happened to her evil short knife, and a villager in front of him suddenly turned pale with horror.
"Tut, I didn't expect that being on the show was like a different person." The middle-aged man at the dinner table absentmindedly knocked on the edge of the rice bowl and commented. The young man on the side just looked at the short knife in the man's hand with bright eyes, and said, "Dad, I want that knife too." ”
"What do you want, I'll sell my head and buy it for you?" The middle-aged woman sneered, as if mocking the young man's wishful thinking. "If you have this effort, you might as well take advantage of this time to have a good relationship with your sister, and then she should have a notice fee, and then our family will have money." I didn't expect that our family would be able to produce a contestant on the show. ”
"Now that the words are full, she may be eliminated when the time comes." The girl sneered, and said that she didn't care about the reaction of the family, put down the dishes and chopsticks and went back to the room by herself. "Mu Feng's interview is about to start, so you can continue to watch this kind of thing."
The boy rolled his eyes in the direction she had left, and whispered something to curse.
At this moment, in front of the projection screen, another machine was suddenly automatically connected, and then, a virtual portrait projection was added to the network group of this house directly ignoring the security defense system that each company has built. The three people who were still on the table were startled, and quickly put down the things in their hands and looked over.
It was a man with a white wool curl, and I don't know if it was a wig or a hairstyle. The man's projection looked down on the family condescendingly, and suddenly his finger clicked to bring up a document.
"Let me introduce myself, I am the housekeeper of the Ryder family and one of the shareholders of Starnet. To put it simply, we would like to ask you for Miss Qiu Xuan's personal custody, property guardianship, and custody rights...... A series of rights and obligations, the Ryder family can provide you with a residence in the main city, all the funds for the growth and support of your children, and a circulating coin star network unblocked card. ”
The middle-aged man and woman grew up and obviously hadn't reacted yet, and the first to light up was the young man, who pulled the man next to him when he repeatedly confirmed the exact "Star Network Circulating Coin Smooth Card" on the document.
"Dad! What a good thing, my sister was taken by the people of the Ryder family, and she was going to be on fire! And it's a Starcoin Accessibility Card! Do you know how much this thing is worth......"
The middle-aged woman coughed loudly to interrupt the young man's incoherent joy, she unconsciously tidied up the corners of her wrinkled old clothes, and asked tentatively: "May I ask, who chose my daughter's patron...... Which young master of the Ryder family? ”
"Young Master Lyle Ryder, the next heir to the head of the family."
The boy's eyes were even more excited.
The joy on the middle-aged man's face cooled down suddenly, and the husband and wife glanced at each other. And the projected butler seemed to be very patient waiting for their choice, looking confident, because he knew that no matter what, the final result would be and would only be the same.
The man suddenly sighed heavily, stepped forward and entered his personal information on the file. "Thank you for your generosity, it's her honor."
The butler nodded haughtily, confirming that the document automatically had a legal effect, and graciously left a window of conversation printed with the company's newsletter. "Everything is in there, you guys pack up, you can think about moving, if you have any questions, just contact the person on the communicator."
Saying this, the portrait projection screen was broken up, and the three of them were in front of the screen that was still playing the live broadcast. The young man couldn't wait to open the window to check the so-called unblocked card, and the middle-aged man sighed again, and then said, "It's also a good thing." ”
The woman gave him a noncommittal look, opened her mouth but didn't say anything, she took one last look at the side of the brunette girl on the screen, and turned back to the room.
……
Qiu Xuan originally thought that if Qing Baichuan herself withstood the anger of the villagers, then she could continue to put herself in the world and explore more secrets of Lyme Village. Unexpectedly, in the next second, a few new Lyme villagers filled the vacant seats, but they attacked Ethan directly.
It's Jingchuan, and the program team is ready to do something to Ethan.
"Be careful!"
She whispered, Ethan has been on guard since the conversation that day, and when she saw this, she showed the appearance of protecting Qiu Xuan in the camera, and raised her cane to resist the counterattack.
Qiu Xuan pulled out her knife, and just thought about announcing that she had "gotten rid of the state of high fever and weakness" now, when she heard several deafening lightning thunderbolts behind her, and her back was hot, and Ethan dragged her to the ground.
