Bai Yujing was abruptly awakened by several urgent phone calls early in the morning. Looking outside, it was just dawn. After answering the call, Bai Yujing didn't even open his eyes and heard an excited voice on the other end: "Ah! Xiao Bai, your Weibo has made the headlines! I was wondering why you hadn't posted anything these past few days, and I was just about to remind you. I didn't expect it to be like this! You discovered a magnificent underwater palace and treasures—it's truly amazing!"
Who is this? Bai Yujing listened to the somewhat shy voice and checked the phone screen. It turned out to be Xu Keke from the publishing house. He immediately replied, "Oh, I see. I know, a lot happened yesterday, and I only got back in the middle of the night!"
After posting, Bai Yujing anticipated that this event would cause quite a stir. Although he didn't expect it to have such a significant impact, he remained calm; after all, he wasn't new to posting such things on Weibo.
Xu Keke quickly realized that it was still early dawn. After being reminded of this situation, she excitedly called Bai Yujing: "Oh no, I'm sorry for disturbing your rest! By the way, you need to quickly write an article about this trip. Please provide a detailed introduction to the travel route and pictures. I'll promote it in this issue of Travel the World magazine, and it will definitely be featured on the cover poster. We must capitalize on this fame! The article also needs to be sent to major travel apps and websites. You have to get it done as soon as possible—today!"
Bai Yujing nodded: "Sure, I happen to have a lot of pictures. I couldn't post them all on Weibo yesterday. I'll send everything to you shortly. As for the article, I'll finish writing it this morning. By the way, I also have a video about the Underground Palace that was filmed underwater earlier. Do you think it would be useful?"
Xu Keke exclaimed: "Of course it's useful! Send it to me; I'll have someone edit it into a video for your Weibo. It will definitely create a buzz and might even get featured in some column programs! Oh, by the way, the general manager asked about when you would finish writing the previous British Trip book. You need to hurry up!"
Bai Yujing replied: "I've already written nearly 100,000 words. It's expected to be over 200,000 words in total. I should be able to get it to you by the end of the month because I'm considering both storytelling and authenticity."
Xu Keke nodded in agreement: "We all believe in you, Xiao Bai! You are definitely the most promising one. You're not just a Traveler, you're a Treasure Hunter. My goodness, that's so cool!"
After hanging up, Bai Yujing rubbed his face and felt completely awake now. He got up and watched TV for a while before heading to the gym on the second floor to use the treadmill. There were also stationary bikes, step machines, elliptical machines, and waist trainers. To his surprise, Bai Yujing discovered a wooden dummy next to the sandbags.
After exercising, he took a shower and sat down in front of the TV to write the article for the magazine. Unlike Weibo posts, magazine articles focus more on details and travel experiences, which Bai Yujing understood well.
Once finished, he immediately sent Xu Keke a compressed file containing both the video shot with an Underwater Detector and his organized pictures. Having someone help him organize these materials was indeed much more convenient; if he had done it alone, he wouldn't know how long it would take.
A waiter pushed a cart into his private dining room and began placing breakfast on the table set for five people; however, only Bai Yujing was present at that moment. "By the way, are there any fun places nearby?" he asked.
The waiter promptly replied: "We're not far from Sanniao Bay, which is very lively. You can enjoy the Seaside beach there and soak up some sun while possibly spotting Chinese White Dolphins. Additionally, there's Fairy Island Park, Longmen Islands, and Bazhajian Valley, which are also quite nice."
Bai Yujing nodded: "Alright, thank you!"
He casually handed a tip to the waiter—a habit he developed while in England where service staff earn very low wages and rely heavily on tips for their livelihood; any service provided usually requires tipping. He didn't expect that even at this upscale hotel back home it would be similar; previously it had always been Li Hao who paid!
Bai Yujing sat down in the restaurant, opened his computer to check the Weibo post he had made earlier, and saw that it had already received over four hundred thousand likes and nearly two hundred thousand replies. He never expected such a response in just one night, especially the number of replies, which was surprisingly high. It seemed everyone was discussing it passionately!
The Sand Pit Porridge at the hotel was quite good; it contained some kind of meat that tasted delicious. On the side, there were also some vegetables and fried dough sticks. It wasn't extravagant, but it was made with care. Bai Yujing ate the porridge with a spoon while reading the replies below.
"This is like a real-life version of Tomb Raiding Notes! Especially that line about handing it over to the state; it really captures the essence!"
"It's all for the country; we should hand Old Bai over to the state too!"
"Yes, Old Bai should also be handed over to the state!"
"Stop it! I want to hand all of you over to the state!"
"Startled from a dying illness, I want to hand it over to the state. Everyone downstairs, maintain formation."
Bai Yujing thought to himself that everyone's focus seemed different from what he had imagined. The content should be the main point; why were they fixating on his wounds? He had already handed it over; he felt helpless! Didn't they think his intelligence and composure in a crisis should be the focus? Bai Yujing bit his spoon and thought this.
"Break formation; stop scrolling Weibo. I've already gone treasure hunting in gx."
"Isn't this near our home? Wasn't someone saying last night that there were street racers? Was that Old Bai? Old Bai, please report your location; I need to meet up."
"Don't think about it upstairs; I've already arrived at Shuiyuan Village. There are police everywhere, and they've set up a cordon. We can't even go in to take a look."
"Old Bai must be silly; wanting to treasure hunt after coming back home? Did he crash? Is he broke now? I heard handing it over can earn five hundred yuan plus a banner; Old Bai, show us!"
Where did this banner come from? There's not even a penny in reward, Bai Yujing wanted to cry. He then noticed that his Weibo had been shared by several celebrities from the entertainment industry, including some female stars he liked before. He felt a bit excited thinking that he might have caught the attention of his previous idols.
"I really want to know who those two are that competed wits with Old Bai?" Bai Yujing immediately saw a more interesting topic and quickly looked at the responses below.
That should be the boss of Masida Fake Detection Studio. I have seen him before, and the person next to him is probably their paparazzi.
This is quite a spectacle! Masida Fake Detection Studio, isn't that the one that often comes out to ride the wave of popularity? This time, they are really skillful at gaining attention!
Masida Fake Detection Studio? Bai Yujing immediately recalled that this was the guy who had previously clashed with him online, the one who had smeared him and got slapped back in the face. Why is he now involved in real-life matters? Bai Yujing felt a deep chill; one cannot speak carelessly online, as the other party might come after them from another province.
I wonder how those two guys are doing. They seemed to be hit hard on the spot. I hope they aren't dead. Both of them have learned their lesson, so Bai Yujing decided not to dwell on it. Now that he knows their identities, it will be easier to guard against them. What he fears most are those hidden dangers lurking in the shadows.
The introduction on Weibo has already been changed to "Signed by Rihsi Publishing House, Traveler." The publishing house usually operates its Weibo account, so besides the posts made by Bai Yujing, Xu Keke also collects some images and materials related to Bai Yujing for promotional purposes. When Bai Yujing posts on Weibo, he should discuss it with her first; yesterday's actions were somewhat unilateral. However, Wang Keke didn't mind since Bai Yujing is quite famous.
After finishing his meal, Bai Yujing opened the Exotic Creature Hunter System in his mind and submitted his tasks. Main quest: Find out the secret behind Li Hao's mark and resolve Li Hao's crisis—reward: one hundred points. If failed, two hundred points will be deducted. If points are insufficient, previously exchanged items, skills, and enhancements will be revoked.
Side Quest One: Find evidence and clues regarding the legendary D-Class Mermaid Clan—reward: thirty points.
Side Quest Two: Find the legendary Merfolk—reward: one hundred points.
Side Quest Three: Understand the origins of mermaids and their hidden secrets—reward: fifty points!
After submitting everything, Bai Yujing found that Side Quest Two could not be submitted and disappeared directly, indicating that the system determined he had not completed this side quest. What is going on? Does he need to find a mermaid or their clan?
However, the rewards were still quite rich; he earned a total of one hundred eighty points. Adding the remaining twenty points (originally fifty points minus thirty points exchanged for Wing Chun), Bai Yujing now has a total of two hundred points. It's time to exchange for something.
