After being universally criticized online, I went viral on military-themed variety shows.

Chapter 735: They're all fun-loving travel companions; it might rain tonight.

Before the viewers in the live stream could express their thoughts further, Yuan Chaoyu's shout came from behind.

After the ceremony on Prayer Island concluded, the wedding procession was ready to depart once more.

Jiang Hanying was about to turn around to meet up with her and Chi Song when she twitched her ears halfway around and turned her head to look at the waterfall again.

After carefully walking across the narrow, railing-less Qifu Bridge again, Yuan Chaoyu finally asked back in the car, "What did you two go to the other side of Qifu Island to see?"

"A waterfall, a bridge."

"Waterfall? Bridge?"

As Chi Song started the car, he couldn't help but raise his hand and touch his ear.

If there's a waterfall, there will definitely be a loud splashing sound.

But he heard nothing while he was on Prayer Island.

Fortunately, Yue Zhuo quickly explained to him: "The waterfall's flow isn't very strong now; it only gets bigger after rainfall. Also, the bridge in front of the waterfall—Grandpa San said that bridge existed there when he was a child, so it must be quite old."

Guan Jing hadn't even set foot on the island, let alone seen the waterfall and the bridge. Upon hearing this, she looked surprised. "I didn't expect there to be a waterfall here. I thought there was only a lake. Does the water from the waterfall fall into Phoenix Hidden Lake?"

"There is a pool at the bottom of the waterfall. Only when the water in the pool overflows the ground will it flow into the lake."

"Does that mean the only way to see it is through Prayer Island?"

Since she had come all this way, she wanted to see all the beautiful scenery around her.

But if we have to go through Qifu Island...

“There are other routes, which are even shorter, but you have to climb mountains.”

"Hiking? I'm not afraid of that, I even brought hiking boots. But I probably won't have time today, how about we go see that waterfall tomorrow?"

Chi Song simply gave a light "Mmm": "I'm fine."

Yuan Chaoyu nodded in agreement.

Jiang Hanying was thinking about the strange noise she had heard from the direction of the waterfall when her arm was lightly touched. She snapped out of her reverie and replied without thinking, "I'm fine with anything."

Guan Jing smiled and looked at Yue Zhuo in the passenger seat, "Then we'll have to trouble Xiao Zhuo to lead the way for us tomorrow."

"no problem."

【No, you've already decided to go see the waterfall?】

If you want to go, just go.

[It seems like Guan Guan really likes waterfalls! I love waterfalls too!]

Who doesn't love the breathtaking view of a waterfall cascading down a thousand feet?

This really is a self-guided trip; it's so free!

Having a group of fun-loving travel companions on your trip is truly a wonderful thing!

Wait, I just remembered something. Tomorrow is the last day of filming, right? The last day to head home.

[That's true! No way, I haven't seen enough yet.]

[Suddenly, I realized that variety shows with little conflict and a simple, lighthearted atmosphere are quite interesting.]

After the wedding car convoy set off again, it drove for nearly an hour before finally arriving at the groom's side.

This time it wasn't in a village, but in a rather large town.

The convoy could drive directly into town and finally stop at the front door of the newly furnished house.

The groom helped the bride out of the car to meet his parents and relatives.

As for the wedding procession, they were not neglected; seats had already been arranged for them to watch the ceremony.

There's also a special ceremony here.

First, there was a lucky old lady who had been specially invited early in the morning.

Not just anyone can be this auspicious grandmother; one must be in good health and spirits, have a smooth life, and enjoy high prestige in the local area to be qualified.

The old man is almost a hundred years old, with snow-white hair, still in good health and spirits. He came to add to the joy of the newlyweds, to bring them good fortune, and to scatter lucky rice and beans... He showed no signs of fatigue at all after the whole ceremony.

After the ceremony was completed, the elderly man was respectfully invited to take his seat by the groom's parents, and the guests sang the local blessing songs that had been passed down through generations.

The entire wedding venue was immersed in a lively and joyful atmosphere. The guests were also caught up in the fun. At first, they couldn't understand what the congratulatory song was about, but by the end, everyone except Jiang Hanying could hum along to a few lines.

The viewers in the live stream were also engrossed in watching and listening.

[Indeed, every place has its own unique characteristics, even weddings.]

I've learned something new again.

I'm so envious of that white-haired old lady. I hope I can live to be that old, still able to walk without help, with a loud voice, and a hearty appetite.

【Tick, tick, tick!】

[It's confirmed that Jiang Hanying is tone-deaf!]

Time passed quickly and evening arrived, and the banquet preparations on the groom's side were basically complete.

As the sun set, torches were lit in the open space, and the banquet began.

The tables and chairs were placed around the torches, so even though the banquet was held outdoors, the guests did not feel cold.

There was also a performance troupe hired by the groom's side, so guests could enjoy the sumptuous wedding banquet while watching local shows. The entire banquet was filled with a lively atmosphere and cheers.

Midway through the ceremony, the groom and the bride, who had changed into a wedding dress, came together to toast each table of guests.

After they had eaten and drunk their fill, the women and children gradually dispersed, while the rest continued to drink with great enthusiasm.

After the guests had eaten and drunk their fill, they quietly left the table.

Guan Jing was still thinking about driving her home, so she made sure not to drink alcohol at the banquet, and even when the bride and groom came to toast, they used tea instead of alcohol.

Jiang Hanying didn't drink at the table. It wasn't that she didn't want to drink, but just before she was about to drink, Yuan Chaoyu, who was sitting next to her, suddenly slapped her arm. "You're applying medicine, did you forget?"

Jiang Hanying: "..."

Fine, I won't drink it!
The wedding banquet started before six o'clock in the evening, and by the time they left, it was already past seven o'clock. The sun had long since set, and the stars and moon were hidden behind thick clouds that had piled up at some unknown time.

Once you leave the area illuminated by the torch, the visible distance instantly shortens.

On the way to the parking lot, Yue Zhuo looked up at the sky and frowned slightly. "It might rain tonight."

The other four people immediately looked at him.

"It was perfectly clear all day and into the evening. I thought the weather forecast was wrong," Guan Jing murmured softly. But then she thought that Yue Zhuo had lived here since he was a child and must have some experience with this. "What are the chances of it raining?"

"Eighty percent."

That's very likely.

Yue Zhuo inhaled the still sparse moisture in the air. "But it probably won't rain anytime soon. If it does, it'll be late at night."

"Fine, let it rain. If it doesn't work, we can cancel our trip to the waterfall tomorrow. We can just stay by the lake and listen to the rain."

Humans cannot control the weather.

The live stream camera also briefly filmed the sky at that moment.

Immediately, viewers with some knowledge of meteorology began posting comments.

The layered clouds are indeed a sign that rain is coming, but the rain should be light.

That's alright.

However, if it's just light rain, it might last quite a while. On the other hand, moderate or heavy rain will just pour down for a short while and then be over.

I hope our trip to the falls tomorrow won't be canceled!

I also don't want it canceled, but the production team's primary concern is definitely the safety of the guests.

I'd like to know, do mushrooms grow on the mountain after it rains?

Go mushroom picking would be great! We could make a mushroom soup when we get back – it'd be so delicious!

What should you do if you pick a poisonous mushroom?

【Shut up your crow mouth! 】

Considering that there would be no moon or stars to light up the night, and that the return journey would involve winding mountain roads with many turns, the production team decided to have one car lead the way, while the guests' cars would follow the taillights of the car in front.

Guan Jing took a deep breath and got into the driver's seat.

The time has come to test her driving skills!
