~7 min read 1,221 words

Uncle A: "If you don't smoke now, don't even think about smoking later."

Uncle B: "That's right! After the New Year's Eve dinner and the water-fetching ceremony, you won't be able to smoke." Grandpa C: "You won't even be able to smoke if you want to~"

Qin Feng and Reba looked at each other in silence.

But in terms of CPU processing speed, Qin Feng was on a crushing level.

Qin Feng: "I think I understand."

Reba: "Could it be some special custom?"

Tai Feng: "The Water Splashing Festival probably won't let you light a cigarette."

Reba: "Pfft~ That actually makes sense!"

As she spoke, her little stomach was already rumbling~

And!

Although it hadn't been long since Qin Feng and Reba arrived in Xishuangbanna.

Reba had already figured out a local rule for doing nothing~

The Dai people's cuisine has four treasures!

Nam Jim sauce, sticky rice, banana leaves, and lemongrass!

These ingredients, seasonings, and containers.

Are almost universally compatible!

Sticky rice cakes can be wrapped in banana leaves and grilled!

Any ingredient can be dipped in Nam Jim sauce to eat~

Just at that moment.

Qin Feng looked at the stove not far away and said: "Beef skin."

Reba's dark eyebrows furrowed slightly.

She thought to herself.

A discovery so amazing that even Qin Feng's cooking skills would exclaim "Beef skin"!

Could it be an even more skilled folk culinary god?

Several minutes later…

When a plate of fried beef skin was served to the table.

Reba realized she had overthought it~

She said: "So the 'beef skin' you just mentioned was real beef skin after all."

Qin Feng: "Dip this in Nam Jim sauce, it's crunchy and very fragrant."

Just at that moment.

His phone rang.

It was cameraman Brother Ni calling.

Cameraman Brother Ni: "Brother Feng! We're almost there~ I've missed you so much!"

Qin Feng: "Hurry up, or we won't get to eat."

Cameraman Brother Ni: "Okay! We'll be there in a flash!" Qin Feng: "By the way, did you bring bowls?" Cameraman Brother Ni: "What? I didn't bring any? I figured no one asked us to bring bowls?" Qin Feng: "It's fine, I have some here, I'll give them to you later." Although, the two bowls Reba brought were indeed very large!

But Qin Feng didn't want to carry two rice bowls everywhere he went.

But he couldn't throw them away either.

They would be perfect for Brother Ni.

After hanging up the phone.

Reba asked: "Did Brother Ni and the others come from the Tibetan region?"

Qin Feng nodded: "They'll be here very soon."

A few minutes later, cameraman Brother Ni and the show's little assistant rushed to the village square. And they also brought along from Qin Feng's car.

A few minutes later, cameraman Brother Ni and the show's little assistant rushed to the village square, and they also happened to get off Qin Feng's car.

It was the helmets, raincoats, and small umbrellas they had purchased earlier!

Although the Dai village was calm and peaceful right now.

But once the ceremony to fetch the holy water is over.

It will surely stir up a storm~

Qin Feng preparing these protective gear was truly being prepared for a rainy day in the physical sense~

It had been several days since Qin Feng saw Brother Ni.

When they met again, the young couple felt another wave of slight shock at his scruffy appearance!

Unlike when he returned from Dunhuang last time.

Cameraman Brother Ni hadn't gotten tanned.

But!

After staying on the plateau for a few days, his skin had become dry and rough.

During the two days he stayed in the Tibetan region.

Cameraman Brother Ni filmed many mountains in the Tibetan region.

Endless mountain ranges, towering snow-capped peaks, ancient glaciers! He could be said to have gathered a lot of rare footage! Brother Ni: "This time I've learned my lesson and bought sunscreen in advance!" Qin Feng: "You didn't get tanned, but your skin looks like it's wearing a thorns armor." Reba: "In this world, there isn't just sunscreen; there's actually moisturizer too..." It's normal for a grown man to be unkempt.

Endless mountain ranges, towering snow-capped peaks, ancient glaciers! One could say they had gathered quite a bit of rare footage! Brother Ni: "This time I learned my lesson and bought sunscreen in advance!" Qin Feng: "I didn't get tanned black, but my skin feels like it's stacked with a damage-reflection armor." Reba: "In this world, there isn't just sunscreen; actually, there's also moisturizer..." It's normal for a grown man to be unkempt.

Brother Ni was feeling very happy in his heart!

Brother Ni felt delighted in his heart!

He said indifferently, "Only sissies care about their skin; real men fear nothing!" Qin Feng: "Just for that remark, I absolutely have to give you a big rice bowl!"

Reba pouted, "Brother Ni, with just that one sentence, you've offended a bunch of fresh meat..."

Brother Ni: "Brother Feng's words and conduct taught me: do your own thing; let others talk however they want!"

Qin Feng: "No, no, no, don't pin everything on me."

The show's little assistant said, "Brother Ni almost lost his shoes running on the road so he wouldn't miss filming the Dai people's Water-Splashing Festival." Reba: "Ah... shoes lost? I know that one."

The day before, because of a rare 'Calanthe orchid' discovered by accident.

It was what made Teacher Xiao Liang lose his shoes running.

--【To be honest, Brother Ni, following Brother Feng, has found a new path to realize his career ideals!】

--【I hate fresh meat the most! He's absolutely right; they're all a bunch of pretty boys.】

--【Can brainless little fans beat us grumpy old brothers? Dare to curse Brother Ni? Rush them to death~】

--【I've figured it out; every single one of them is a veteran player of 'Zuan for eight years, with a living mother'.】

--【When does the Water-Splashing Festival start? GKD!】

Brother Ni, the cameraman for the "100% Love" program.

After arriving at the Dai village.

He devoured several sticky rice cakes, crunching away.

With local permission, he hoisted the camera and went to film the water-fetching ceremony of the Water-Splashing Festival.

Perfectly illustrating what professionalism means!

Reba ate the lemongrass-grilled fish carefully.

She nodded approvingly, "Qin Feng, this is much tastier than the leftovers we packed up yesterday!"

Qin Feng: "That's what you call authentic~"

Reba, cheeks puffed, said, "Tone it down~"

While speaking, she also placed a large piece of fish with fewer bones into Qin Feng's bowl.

Gazing at the water-fetching ceremony in the distance.

Reba asked curiously, "Is the water-fetching ceremony of the Water-Splashing Festival like the Olympic torch lighting?"

Qin Feng nodded: "You can understand it that way."

Reba: "Are there any special rules regarding the location, time, and people for fetching the water?"

Qin Feng frowned: "Are you writing a thesis? Researching it so thoroughly?"

Reba: "Live and learn; with a teacher like this right beside you, not using him would be a waste."

Qin Feng: "The location is mostly fetching water from the Lancangjiang; the Dai people historically lived almost entirely along the river, holding special affection for its waters, and Asian elephants also live in the river's tributaries.

The Dai people's elephant-foot drum can also be considered another form of reverence for the Lancangjiang.
