Chapter 16: Growth in popularity, completion of the task
Ning Fei's knife technique really amazed everyone.
The tiger he carved out was right on the watermelon and was as lifelike as it could be.
After seeing the finished product, Ning Fei was also extraordinarily satisfied.
He took another look at the popularity of the live broadcast room, which had come to 120,000.
So, he took out the second watermelon and started carving it again.
What Ning Fei didn't know was that the footage of him carving the watermelon just now had been made into a short video and posted online.
This is an era of the Internet.
If there is any strange art, etc., as long as someone sees it, someone will want to post it online.
So, that short video quickly caught fire.
"Watermelon carving master appeared on the Internet!"
"A real artist!"
"God-level craftsmanship reproduces the world!"
"After watching this video, you are not allowed to say those two words!"
All sorts of reprinted titles, video theft, etc., became popular for a while in places like Douyin and Post Bar etc.
The initial of the video is Ning Fei picking and mending on the watermelon, there is nothing out of the ordinary.
Many netizens saw this and said, "What is this thing?"
Until the moment when the mystery is revealed.
When Ning Fei carried out the watermelon rind that moment, see this short video people are stunned.
They still uttered the words "hell".
The sound of the fighting is even better. When the sculpture of the tiger descends the mountain, it is accompanied by passionate background music, a dark black style, and a big "wild" character.
It is simply cool.
The number of likes for this video quickly broke a million.
The originator of the video also posted a top comment.
"Video material from the Dou bird live broadcast: Qingfeng Guan master's live room, welcome everyone to go to watch."
There is one to say, the Dou bird live broadcast is not a joke.
Ning Fei's second watermelon carving is an eagle with wings soaring, is also majestic.
He was carving the third watermelon when people started pouring into his live room.
"Wow, is this the master? So young."
"So handsome."
"Really, how can there be such a handsome person."
"The anchor's handicraft is awesome, where is the master, please?"
"Brother, will you sell this watermelon?"
"Master Guan, can you carve on wood, I lack a carving master, if your craft is really so powerful, I am willing to give you an annual salary of 500,000 to start."
Netizens discussed enthusiastically, Ning Fei's live broadcast room has also grown in popularity.
Originally the popularity did not grow quickly, but because there are many fans spontaneously to attract traffic for Ning Fei, all the way down, the popularity of the live broadcast room is surprisingly more and more.
120,000, 140,000, 180,000.
In about four hours, Ning Fei's live stream saved exceeded 200,000 popularity value.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the task and obtaining the skill: bird taming."
Ning Fei was still concentrating on his carving when the system's voice sounded at the right time.
"Is this completed?"
There was some consternation in Ning Fei's expression.
His heart had been drumming as well; after all, the process of carving something like this was rather boring, and not many people were willing to watch.
His idea was that when the mystery was revealed, he should be able to harvest a large wave of popularity and see if he could rely on such popularity to hit 200,000 popularity values.
What he couldn't imagine now was that just after carving the third watermelon, the task was completed.
Just in time, the third watermelon carving is nearing the end.
He again removed the rind of the watermelon as before, and a wolf whistling to the sky was imprinted into the audience's eyes.
It was a great skill.
The audience no longer knew what words to use to describe Ning Fei's awesomeness.
Ning Fei did not continue to carve, now four hours had passed, he was hungry, and the little falcon was probably hungry too.
The good thing about bird taming is that after acquiring this skill, Ning Fei knew how to feed and condition the little bird.
Through bird training, he knew that falcons and raptors are different from other birds. They are carnivores. Other young birds can feed millet, corn and the like, but falcons cannot.
However, he can make a paste of soy flour, cooked egg yolk, minced meat and cod liver oil, and then feed the young falcons.
Similarly, falcons are not suitable to be kept in bird cages, because living in bird cages for a long time can easily break their feathers, and because of insufficient exercise, their claws and beaks will lose opportunities for tempering.
"Phew, looks like it's not easy to raise this little guy." Ning Fei took a look at the little falcon chattering in the cardboard box and shook his head with a smile.
Then, he took his phone and said to everyone: "Everyone, sorry, I have to go to the city this afternoon to buy some household goods, so I won't be live. We'll see you tonight."
With that, he hung up the live broadcast.
He really had to go to the city, many things he cannot buy from the mountain village.
He now only has about 2,000 yuan in savings on him, but there is still some money to take out of the live background, but also enough to live.
Ning Fei glanced at the data of his system.
His current popularity value was 32,000, and he had already spent 16,000, leaving 16,000 left to use.
Ning Fei did not rashly choose to use it.
Right now, the silver lottery was very ineffective, nothing more than some low-level seeds, slightly body-enhancing elixir type things, nothing good.
When it came to the gold draw, perhaps he could look forward to it.
At noon, Ning Fei casually ate a bowl of noodles to deal with a little, and then ran to the village, it so happened that Uncle Zhu of Qinshan Butcher Shop was going down the mountain, Ning Fei let him give himself a ride down.
The traffic in the mountains is not very aspect, there is also a bus, but every morning at 6:30 on the arrival, the evening about 7:00 back, except for this time there is no other vehicle.
Many people in the mountains now have cars, and it is still very convenient to have a car.
Ning Fei, on the other hand, because of economic difficulties, cannot afford to buy a car.
"Yo, Ning Fei, what's going down the mountain?" Zhu Yidao asked with a smile.
Zhu Yidao was the owner of the largest meat store in Qinshan, and many people came to him to buy meat.
"Buying something." Ning Fei said with a smile.
"Tell me about you, you studied so well in college, come back to do work. The mountains are poor, it's no match for the outside." Zhu Yidao drove the car, helplessly persuaded.
Few young people in the mountains now, the most inferior are in the county below, most of them have gone outside.
Like Ning Fei such as still come back, rarely seen.
For Ning Fei, he likes nature very much, and also likes to explore it.
Put in this steel and concrete pouring out of the new century, his ideas are undoubtedly ridiculous.
His biggest dream is to travel around the world, to explore various magical places.
High mountains, grasslands, deep valleys, snow, caves...
Nature was so magnificent that he was going to want to explore and experience it, and likewise, wanted to share his experiences with others.
Previously, he thought all these were his dreams.
His intention was to return to the Taoist temple, repair it and go outside to make a living and be an ordinary member of society.
But now it's different.
The outdoor live system is simply tailor-made for him in general.
He has the ability and confidence to pursue his dream.
"Uncle Zhu, in my eyes, the things in the mountains are all treasures." Ning Fei replied with a smile.
When Zhu Yidao saw his insistence, he said nothing more.
In the afternoon, Ning Fei went to the market to purchase cod liver oil, minced meat, small shrimp, something suitable for feeding small falcons, and bought some necessities, so he took these things with him, took the only bus up the mountain, and wandered back on the way back.
The environment in the mountains is very good, a glance over, full of lush, lush green mountains.
In Ning Fei's heart, silently planned the next step.
