Chapter 353 - 353 237 Throwing a Brick to Attract Jade

353: Chapter 237: Throwing a Brick to Attract Jade 353: Chapter 237: Throwing a Brick to Attract Jade Over there, Chu Liang had already made his way through the crowd to approach them, and issued an invitation.

“Hello, both of you, I didn’t expect to see you here; it’s really fate.

I wonder if I could invite the two of you to join us as reinforcements to help us win the upcoming competition?”

Indeed, just as he expected, this guy was indeed coming for him.

Well then, let’s just relax and enjoy it.

Zhang Xiaoman nodded slightly and then stood up, pulling Lin Sisi with her, they followed Chu Liang toward the stage in front of them.

Around them, the crowd began discussing animatedly upon seeing these two spectators, known as “Great Power,” approaching.

Many people did not recognize them at first until someone linked them with the video of Chu Liang’s burst of flame from last time, and only then did they react with surprise.

However, only a few people were able to recognize them.

After all, it was just a video, and although Zhang Xiaoman and Lin Sisi were very conspicuous in it, they were ultimately just passersby.

The reason they could remember them now was because of the girl’s identity as a Blind Girl.

“Uh…

Miss, your eyes…”

Some of the guests from the Blue Team also gathered around, one of them hesitantly started to ask.

They had noticed something unusual about Lin Sisi when they saw her following behind Zhang Xiaoman, and now, up close, they realized she was indeed a blind girl.

The audience below all perked up their ears; they were naturally curious about this matter, especially since Lin Sisi’s appearance was sure to attract attention.

“King, these two are the experts I told you about.

They were the ones who gave me a public smackdown last time…”

Chu Liang came over and introduced them to the people beside him.

He reiterated his impression of Zhang Xiaoman and Lin Sisi, thereby solidifying the fact of the little girl’s blindness, prompting a buzz of discussion among the onlookers.

“Huh?

She really can’t see?

In that case, is it okay for her to participate in the competition?”

“Are you dumb or what?

Isn’t this round about drawing pictures with eyes covered?

Whether you can see or not, doesn’t it all come to the same thing?”

“Yeah, I heard that these two are also a pair of very skilled magicians.

We should let Chu Liang battle them first to see who is more powerful!”

“Right, right, battle!

Battle!

Battle!”

“…”

Below the stage, the shouts of the audience grew louder, and the guests on the stage clearly heard the audience’s demands, with their gaze shifting toward the area where Chu Liang and Zhang Xiaoman were.

Chu Liang felt a bit helpless now, what kind of battle involving magic was this?

It wasn’t a dance battle.

Moreover, the program recording was on a time budget, and there definitely wasn’t a lot of spare time for them to perform magic.

The situation quickly caught the attention of the program staff, and after a brief discussion, they immediately communicated the latest information through the earpieces to those on stage.

After obtaining consent from the other party, they could show a bit of their magic, but it had to be brief and the session short.

There, upon receiving the director’s message, Chu Liang immediately turned to Zhang Xiaoman and asked:

“It seems the audience is quite enthusiastic… I wonder if the big shot is interested in showing us a trick or two.

Ever since I saw your act last time, I’ve been thinking about it day and night, unable to forget.

Simply couldn’t wait for an opportunity to see you again…”

Zhang Xiaoman thought for a moment and then nodded slightly to indicate agreement.

Seeing this, the crowd also became excited.

Chu Liang was the most thrilled, as he certainly wasn’t kidding earlier.

Ever since he witnessed that trick last time, these past days he’d been constantly trying to find that person, just to get to know this big shot.

“Alright, thank you for agreeing to perform.

Now, let me be the one to throw a brick to attract jade.”

As Chu Liang spoke, he began his magic performance.

Due to the lack of preparation and limited time, he chose a relatively simple magic trick.

He first borrowed a lighter from an audience member below the stage, and then found a glass.

The glass was also temporarily borrowed from an audience member.

Chu Liang turned it over several times to show that there were no tricks involved, then filled it with water, and lit the lighter with his other hand.

“The magic trick I’m going to perform for you is called ‘Undying Fire’.

Now, please don’t blink and witness the miracle!”

At this point, everyone held their breath, already guessing what he was going to do.

It must be said that Chu Liang was quite skilled at enlivening the atmosphere.

The magic trick hadn’t yet been revealed, and the mere preparation of the prelude was enough to immerse the viewers.

Next, as he relaxed his fingers, the lighter ablaze with flames immediately plunged into the glass.

The “plop” sound it made when it hit the water was so clear that even the audience members in the front could hear it distinctly.

“Ah!

Look!

The fire didn’t go out!

It is still burning!”

Someone cried out, and at that moment, the audience burst into applause, all with amazed expressions watching the scene, unable to figure out why the lighter, which had fallen into the water, was still burning.

Chu Liang, smiling, showed the glass around, then reached in to fish out the lighter and bowed to the audience to indicate that his magic performance was complete.

Zhang Xiaoman watched the magic act with great interest from the side; obviously, he did not know how the other party did it, since he himself didn’t understand it at all.

Below, some people were also guessing how Chu Liang’s trick had been done.

Several guys who came with their girlfriends, in order to demonstrate their own wit, started explaining the principles behind it.

“Hey, what’s so hard about that?

I saw it in a glance, it’s definitely the issue with the glass – there’s a reflective surface!

He didn’t actually throw the lighter into the water!”

“…”

“Honey, let me tell you, this magic is super simple, I can do it too.

It’s all because of the water.

Combustion just needs three elements.

As long as these three are present, even underwater, the fire can be maintained.

Technically, it’s just a matter of chemistry, according to the chemical formula #%@#￥%#￥…”

“…”

Down below, the audience was tirelessly speculating about the secret of the magic trick, while Chu Liang on stage was already accustomed to such scenes.

He always maintained a smile on his face, his heart utterly calm, not perturbed at all.

“Brother Man, I hope I didn’t embarrass myself.

Now it’s your turn,” Chu Liang said.

Zhang Xiaoman gave him a surprised look upon hearing this.

He had never revealed his name; how did this kid know it?
