Stop it, the country really can't fit any more bans on the domestic entertainment industry.

Chapter 68: They haven't found the nuclear bomb yet, but they've found other types of miss

"Please help me, everyone."

In front of the camera, Qian Chenghui's words, though calm, were clearly heard by everyone.

After his somber account of the Jade Shattering Plan, the noisy atmosphere in the various live stream rooms, which had been filled with "Holy crap!" comments, suddenly changed.

Previously, when Qian Xuesen said, "I'm here to find nuclear bombs," most netizens' first reaction was shock, gossip, and thought the matter was extremely absurd.

At that time, people didn't really feel it.

After all, nuclear weapons are too far removed from the lives of ordinary people, so far that they only exist in the last few minutes of CCTV's news broadcasts or in Hollywood blockbusters.

But now.

When this long-buried history is unveiled, when the resolute will of "better to die a glorious death than live a shameful life" is laid bare, and when the map marking the potential risk of nuclear leakage is clearly displayed on the screen...

That heavy pressure finally traveled through the internet cable and reached everyone's heart.

Countless netizens holding their phones now wore serious expressions.

This is no joke.

It wasn't a variety show script either.

This was a truly devastating weapon, capable of threatening the lives of countless people at any moment, and it has been lost to the annals of history.

If we don't find it, and if it really has leaked, the consequences...

Many people subconsciously swallowed, feeling their throats go dry.

however.

In this internet age, a serious atmosphere is often hard to maintain for long, especially when things get really outrageous.

No matter how solemnly Mr. Qian spoke, no matter how authentic the map was.

But where did all of this take place?

It's from "Mushroom House"!

It's in a slow-paced variety show that focuses on "idyllic countryside", "eating and sleeping", and "peaceful life"!

This immense sense of disconnect has caused many netizens' brains to malfunction.

Just as the entire internet fell into a brief moment of solemnity.

A particularly abrupt comment, yet one that resonated with countless people, slowly drifted across the top of the screen:

"Wait... guys, can someone snap me out of this? How is this possible? Isn't Mushroom House supposed to be a place of 'A Long Way to Go'? A slow-paced variety show about drinking tea and chatting? How come they first dug up thousands of bombs, and now it's some kind of nuclear bomb? Isn't this leap a bit too big?!"

This comment, like a spark, instantly ignited the absurd feeling that had been building up in everyone's hearts.

Yes!

This is outrageous!

"I'd like to ask the same thing. I came here to watch Teacher Huang cook, hoping he could recreate his amazing skill with poisonous green beans, but now I'm watching a declassified national secret file?"

"I came here to see my sister living a peaceful life, but now I'm being told this place could explode at any moment?"

"This isn't 'Mushroom House,' it's clearly 'Survival Challenge'!"

"Even screenwriters wouldn't dare write something like this!"

The discussion quickly gained momentum.

Everyone is venting about the sense of disorientation caused by the collapse of their cognition.

And just then...

Those internet trolls and geniuses with wildly imaginative ideas have finally made their move.

Perhaps to ease the overly heavy atmosphere, or perhaps the matter itself is full of dark humor.

An amazing comment popped up:

"Hey upstairs, you're making a big fuss over nothing. Think about it carefully, what's the name of this show?"

"Call it Mushroom House."

"Since it's called the Mushroom House, isn't it reasonable that there are mushroom bombs inside? It's not just reasonable, it's absolutely perfect!"

......

puff!

Countless netizens who were drinking water burst out laughing when they saw this comment.

The originally heavy atmosphere was abruptly broken open by this one sentence.

"That's totally reasonable!"

"A logical genius!"

"Mushroom bombs growing in the Mushroom House? That makes sense, it's scientifically sound!"

"I was speechless, and even felt that what he said made a lot of sense."

"The mystery is solved! So this is the real meaning behind the name 'Mushroom House'! The director was playing a long game!"

Netizens started making crazy memes about it.

The fear dissipated amidst laughter, and although the situation remained serious, everyone seemed less stressed.

however.

Amidst a barrage of memes and comments like "It makes sense" and "That makes perfect sense," the screen was filled with such jokes.

It seems there are always some righteous people who can't stand this attitude of "entertainment to the death".

Soon, a bolded comment popped up prominently, filled with obvious anger, attempting to stop this improper trend:

"Damn it! What time is it? This is a nuclear bomb! It's a matter of life and death! Even Elder Qian is so anxious, and you guys are still making jokes? Don't you have any conscience?!"

I saw this comment.

Many netizens who were just laughing now felt a little uneasy, wondering if they had indeed gone a bit too far.

After all, it's really not appropriate to make jokes in such a serious setting.

however.

Just as everyone was preparing to reflect, to stop using the meme, and even to give this righteous person a thumbs up.

This righteous person didn't finish speaking.

His next sentence followed immediately:

"Reporting to Elder Qian! I didn't find the mushroom bomb, but I did find a bastard!"

........................................

The live stream went silent for a moment.

Followed by.

"Hahahaha!"

"Holy shit! You old bastard!"

"Gasping for breath, huh?"

"(Facepalm) When I saw the first half of your comment, I thought you were really refusing to use the memes. I was even reflecting on my own behavior, but it turns out you were using the memes too!"

"What a generous gift! I knew it, no one who watches Li Mo'an's livestream is a decent person!"

"That turn almost strained my back!"

"Qian Lao: I told you to find nuclear weapons, who told you to find bastards?"

The entire live stream room was filled with a joyful atmosphere.

Although everyone knew the situation was serious and that they needed to help find clues, under such extreme pressure, this kind of meme-making was more like a collective way to relieve stress.

After all, aside from trusting the country and Mr. Qian, all ordinary people like them can do is provide some clues online and find some amusement in their misery.

........................................

Just as the internet was going completely crazy because of the meme "Mushroom House has mushroom bombs".

Mushroom Village, on-site.

Yang Mi stood on the periphery of the crowd, completely covering herself up.

At this moment, he was staring blankly at Mr. Qian, who was showing a map to the camera not far away.

Even through her large sunglasses, you could feel the blankness and shock in her eyes.

She had heard and taken in everything Mr. Qian said, as well as the reactions of those around her.

Nuclear bomb.

The Jade Shattering Plan.

These words, like heavy punches, made her head buzz.

Just a few minutes ago.

She was terrified when she learned that Teacher Huang had sent Li Mo'an to dig a fishpond in the back mountain.

She was still thinking about Secretary Chen's warning—"Never let him dig the ground."

She was still worried that Li Mo'an's strange constitution might lead him to dig up something else in the back mountain.

But now.

The instant I heard the word "nuclear bomb".

All those worries about digging the fishpond, all those anxieties about whether Li Mo'an would cause trouble, just like that...

Disappeared.

Or rather, it was temporarily suppressed by a much greater anxiety.

Yang Mi took a deep breath, and her previously tense body surprisingly relaxed a little.

"A nuclear bomb..."

She murmured to herself.

"If this thing really exists in this village, does it even matter whether Li Mo'an dug a fishpond or not?"

"Compared to this nuclear bomb, which could leak or even explode at any moment, the thousand or eight hundred conventional bombs that Li Mo'an dug out are nothing!"

"That's child's play, it's just like popping firecrackers!"

Human psychology is just that strange.

When faced with a massive disaster, what seemed like an insurmountable problem suddenly becomes insignificant.

even.

At this moment.

Yang Mi's shrewd business acumen, or rather, her crisis management instincts honed from years in the industry, led her to come up with a rather absurd yet seemingly reasonable idea.

"This...maybe it's not necessarily a bad thing."

She blinked her fox-like eyes, her mind starting to race.

"Think about it."

"Right now, the entire internet, and even the whole country, is focused on this lost nuclear bomb."

Everyone's eyes were on Professor Qian, and on that map.

Who cares how many bombs Li Mo'an unearthed before?

Who would bother to investigate whether he endangered public safety?

"In fact, if handled properly, people might even think that it was precisely because Li Mo'an unearthed those bombs that the authorities' attention was drawn, that Elder Qian was brought to the forefront, and that this long-hidden nuclear threat was discovered."

"This is a meritorious deed!"

"This is a great achievement!"

Yang Mi thought about it more and more and it made more sense.

This is like a student making a mistake and breaking a classroom window.

The teacher was going to punish him.

Then, the school suddenly caught fire.

Then who would care about that broken piece of glass?

Everyone's attention was focused on putting out the fire; the student who broke the glass might even have become a hero if he had called the fire department instead.

Yes, that's it.

The huge weight that had been hanging over Yang Mi's heart, though not completely lifted, was at least not as agonizing anymore.

She was even somewhat relieved.

Fortunately, although Li Mo'an is strange, this world seems to be even stranger than him.

It turns out that nuclear bombs actually exist.

"No matter how sinister you are, it can't be more sinister than a nuclear bomb, can it?"

"Once everyone's attention is drawn to the nuclear bomb, the higher-ups might not hold you accountable for digging up the bomb anymore, and the whole thing about Jiaxing Entertainment turning into 'extended punishment entertainment' could even be forgotten."

Thinking of this, Yang Mi couldn't help but take out her phone to see if the current public opinion trend was as she had predicted.

She opened Weibo.

really.

The trending topics list has completely exploded.

The original hashtags #JiaxingEntertainment# and #LiMoanDiggingForBombs# are still there, but they have been firmly buried under the new hashtags.

#Qian Lao Appears in Mushroom Village#

#Searching for the Last Nuclear Bomb#

#Project ShatteredJadeExposed#

#There are really mushroom bombs in the Mushroom House#

All of these terms are followed by the word "explosive".

The number of views is skyrocketing, reaching hundreds of millions.

The level of discussion reached an unprecedented peak.

The entire internet, whether it's online forums, social media, or short video platforms, is discussing this very issue right now.

It can be said.

At this moment.

All the commotion Li Mo'an had caused before has become nothing more than an insignificant ripple in the face of this huge upheaval.

Although the crisis remains, and nuclear weapons still inspire fear.

But for Yang Mi, her biggest worry has indeed been shifted.

"That's good, that's good..."

Yang Mi patted her chest and breathed a slight sigh of relief.

As for Li Mo'an, is he still digging a fishpond in the back mountain?

Go ahead and dig.

Dig anywhere.

Anyway, as long as it doesn't dig a hole through the Earth, it shouldn't be a big deal in the face of this nuclear bomb.

Yang Mi comforted herself in this way.

however.

What she didn't know was...

Sometimes, you can't just say things carelessly.

Some people are so eccentric that they cannot be deduced using common sense.
