The daily life of the crew of "Beasts".

Chapter 229 Praying to Gods and Buddhas Before the Exam

The lunch break ended in the blink of an eye, and it was time for the three brothers and the four-faced creatures to have their turn.

As everyone was preparing, a red figure flew over the film crew from afar. Bai Jie looked up and saw that it was Di Jiang.

"Ouch~"

A splash of pink leaped out, and Chaos spread its wings and soared away, its cries filled with joy. Dijiang flapped its four wings and landed on the wind. The two beasts embraced each other, looking every bit like sisters.

"Tsk, Auntie and Rambutan's relationship is getting better and better. It feels like they'd be doing themselves a disservice if they didn't get married. No wonder the director is shipping them..."

Just as Bai Jie was busy shipping the two characters, he heard a chattering voice beside him. He turned around and saw Qiong Xiaoqi complaining to his two buddies. He couldn't help but chime in.

"It seems like none of the couples the director paired up were normal, but the thing is, they all seem to have ended up together."

"Including you guys?" Taotie suddenly asked.

The air fell silent for a moment. The three Pixiu felt a chill and instinctively looked up at the sky. After a long while, seeing that the sky was still clear and bright, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"It can't be that bad, can it? You guys are so timid. This isn't something you said. How could Heaven send down divine punishment like this?" Qiong Xiaoqi said speechlessly.

Try getting struck by lightning a few times and you can't even complain. If you say something bad about it, you'll get struck twice more.

Tianlu glared at him, about to say something, but then a glint appeared in his eyes, and he suddenly noticed something and paused, “Uh? Um, it seems Jiang Jiang and Da Ge have left?”

"what?"

"Ouch?"

The three little thugs' brains froze for a moment. After taking two seconds to understand the meaning of the words, they quickly turned their heads to look.

Under the blazing midday sun, Dijiang carried Chaos on his back and soared above the green sea. With each flap of his four wings, the sound grew fainter and fainter until he became a black dot on the horizon. In contrast, the eyes of the three little fierce creatures widened and widened until they were completely round!

Why did they leave? Why did they leave?!

They hadn't even boarded the bus yet, how could the rambutan have already flown away with Auntie? Were they just left behind like that, all fresh and lovely?!

"Auntie, Rambutan, wait for us! You can't forget about us even if you're all lovey-dovey! We're still kids! We don't know the way home!! Wait, wait, wait!"

Qiong Xiaoqi charged ahead with a mournful cry, followed closely by Tao Xiaowu and Xiao Taotao. The three little rascals ran desperately to catch up with their two parents who had flown far away, raising clouds of dust behind them as they gradually disappeared into the mountainside.

The three Pixiu and Sibu that remained in place looked at each other, and when they recalled the scene just now, they couldn't help but laugh.

"Pfft!" That laugh instantly reduced my merit by 99. How long will it take to make up for it by banging on the electronic wooden fish?

"Haha, they really are the true love, the other ferocious beasts were just accidents." Bai Jie concluded, his lips curling into a wild smile.

Just then, the crew on the other side finished tidying up the set, and Puss in Boots' shouts came from afar, "They're here to film!"

"I'm coming!"

The four children happily ran back to the film set upon hearing the sound.

……

Sunrise and sunset, more than half a month has quietly passed, and the latest episode of "The Beast" has been released online.

In the screen,

The four-legged creature dug a hole, finished defecating, and looked completely relaxed. At this most relaxed moment, the voices of the three brothers suddenly rang out. They had actually watched the whole thing!

Not only that, they were even wondering if they could eat what they excreted!

After hastily and frantically burying the excrement, he noticed that the three little Pixiu had actually grown quite a bit.

Tianlu said they had accidentally eaten a little too much, and then the three brothers took over the task. They prepared to set off again, but their suddenly increased size almost crushed the Four-Faced Beast. In the end, Baijie suggested shrinking their bodies so they could take off smoothly...

Heavenly Father - Earthly Mother: [Fun fact: Wild animals bury their excrement after relieving themselves in the wild to prevent predators from finding it.]

Xiao Kun: [Going to the toilet is when a person (or animal) is most vulnerable.]

What kind of mischief could a kitten possibly have? :[Do you know how much psychological trauma it causes me when it suddenly appears while I'm pooping? Do you know?! Do you know?! No, you don't know, you only care about whether it can eat!]

Qingqi: [Hahahaha! The person upstairs is awesome! Emoji: [laughing and crying emoji]]

My mom said that long names can be misread by idiots: [I totally understand. My mom also barged in while I was in the bathroom, acting like it was perfectly normal, and went about her business. I told her to go out, and she said, "I'm your mom, it's not like I haven't seen this before, what are you being shy about?" etc...]

Begonia King's Magic Skills: [Sympathy for the person upstairs.]

Wu Nian'an: [This is incredibly embarrassing.]

……

School,

Inside the classroom.

The four-legged creature sat upright on the platform, while the three brothers stood side by side on the classroom table in front of them, also sitting upright.

An incense burner and three offering plates were placed in front of them. Three red incense sticks emitted wisps of smoke, and the plates were filled with snacks. A student stepped forward and prayed devoutly, and a bag of potato chips was added to the offering plate.

Just then, students from other classes happened to pass by outside the window. They were all stunned when they saw this scene. They had seen many people praying to gods and Buddhas before exams, but they had never seen anything like this before!

Incense burner, offering plate, and living deity statue are all available, and they even use the lectern as an offering table?

Are you guys crazy?!

One of the beasts knew someone in the class, and after hesitating for a moment, he went into the classroom to ask his friend what was going on. "What are you guys doing? Holding such a big ceremony, aren't you afraid of the teachers?"

"It's okay, the exam hasn't started yet, so the teachers don't care."

"Was it really necessary to make it like this?"

"I don't know either, I just joined in the fun. But those four are genuine auspicious beasts, offerings are entirely voluntary, and it's free anyway, so how much do you have to offer?"

The students from other classes thought it made sense, especially after learning that there were three Pixiu and a Qilin sitting on it.

After he finished his prayers, he went out and told a few friends. The news spread, and the four little ones who were being worshipped watched as a bunch of students from other classes came over to worship and pray to be on the list.

As the story spread, the troublesome students who were praying to gods and Buddhas kept gathering around, and the classroom was so noisy that the aisles were almost completely filled. Xie Zhi couldn't stand it anymore.

Several basketball clones bounced and hopped into the classroom, instantly silencing the enthusiastic worship scene as if doused with a bucket of cold water.

Just when the beasts thought they were doomed and prepared to be driven away and punished, the most unbearable thing happened...

Those clones actually maintained order as if nothing had happened?!

Under the blank stares of a group of beasts, the inexplicably started pre-exam ritual continued, with a steady stream of beasts coming to worship at the offering table, while the people being worshipped had various expressions.

People really do want to laugh when they're in a really awkward situation, and Bai Jie knows this all too well; that's exactly how he feels right now, while his three brothers beside him...

Bixie strained to keep his expressionless face straight, Tianlu stared at the mountain of snacks drooling, and as for the Sibuxiang, its hind legs were practically digging out a three-bedroom apartment, but it still had to maintain a polite smile.

at last.

Ten minutes before the exam, students from other classes rushed back to their classrooms, leaving only classmates. The four mythical beasts that had been placed on the altar felt as if they had been granted a pardon. The Four-Faced Beast was the first to make a move, hurriedly saying hello before disappearing in a flash.

He's never felt this much pressure while filming. This whole ordeal left him drenched in cold sweat, and he never wants to go through it again.

Let's let the plum blossom, sun, and blue circle come up with their own answers next time.

Back to the classroom.

The three brothers ran back to their seats. Bai Jie plopped down, clutching his chest, feeling his heart still pounding.

He glanced sideways at Tianlu, who was happily counting his snacks, seemingly unconcerned about what had just happened. Tianlu's carefree nature was something he genuinely envied.

Looking at the other side, Bixie's expression was slightly unnatural, clearly still a bit unsettled.

Bai Jie half-lyed on the table and took a couple of deep breaths, gradually calming down. However, a thought quickly flashed through his mind.

Will we have to do this before every exam in the future?

"Ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding!"

The familiar bell rang, the familiar footsteps sounded, and Xie Zhi came in carrying a stack of test papers. Soon all the students received their papers.

Bai Jie glanced at the paper; unsurprisingly, it was another exam beyond the syllabus. He skillfully reviewed the questions, then picked up his pen to answer, the sound of him biting his pen ringing out precisely in his ear.

"Crack!"

The pen broke, but without looking up, he casually pulled out a new one and handed it over, saying, "Here you go."

"Ah? Oh oh!"

Tianlu took the pen with a bewildered look on his face. The Xie Zhi in the distance cast a glance over, and after confirming that there was no cheating, it looked away.

……

As usual, the morning exams were conducted in a chaotic manner. After the various disorderly behaviors were ruthlessly suppressed, most students settled down and quietly worked on the questions, with the constant scratching sound of pens scratching against paper.

Perhaps it was because of the worship ceremony, but Qiong Xiaoqi felt that his thinking was particularly smooth during the exam, and questions that he couldn't figure out before were easily solved.

He checked it several times, but couldn't find any problems. So he confidently handed in his paper early, and did so all morning.

At lunchtime, a group of friends gathered together, and he proudly recounted the incident.

"Hmph, I'm having a stroke of genius today, like I'm divinely inspired. I can solve all kinds of difficult problems at a glance. I'm sure I'll get a high score on this exam. From now on, I'm a top student."

"Oh."

Everyone was focused on eating and ignored him, except for Taotie, who gave a perfunctory reply.

Qiong Xiaoqi immediately objected!

"Hey, you guys don't believe me? What I'm saying this time is absolutely true, no doubt about it! You still don't believe me? The answer to the multiple-choice question in Chinese is BCABD! Right!"

“Pah.”

Walnut dropped his chopsticks on the table, and he slowly raised his head, his eyes filled with disbelief. "The same...the same one Walnut chose..."

"Hmph, I told you so. My intuition and feelings this time couldn't have lied to me. Now you should admit that I can get a high score, right?" Qiong Xiaoqi crossed his arms and raised his head.

However, Walnut ignored him, just looking dazed. "Oh no... Walnut's grades are going to drop, and the allowance Mom promised is gone..."

"Eh?"

Qiong Xiaoqi slowly typed out a question mark.

He turned his head and saw that not only Walnut, but also Tianlu, Bixie, Yuetian, and the two old buddies beside him all had expressions of utter despair. Only the scroll was different from them, along with Baijie and the two Inari foxes, who remained relatively calm.

Poor Xiaoqi: "..."

Aren't you polite? Polite?!

I'd rather believe I made the wrong choice than believe I made the right one!!
