===============

This matter involved a big star, many parties were cooperating, and the barrage discussion was in full swing.

While they were still discussing matters, An Rugu connected with the second predestined person. He was a food critic. She asked him whether he wanted the divination to be done through photos or a video call.

The other party chose the latter, so An Rugu made a call.

As soon as the video call was connected, the destined person appeared on the livestream. He was about thirty years old, with dark skin and a decent appearance. He was sitting on the table with a lot of instant noodles in front of him.

The food critic quickly put the plastic fork he was holding into the instant noodle bowl and greeted An Rugu with a bright smile, “Hello, host!”

“Hello.”

[Welcome to the second victim!]

[Welcome the second unlucky guy!]

[Damn, isn’t this Snack? We haven’t seen each other for a few days. How you doin’?]

[Who is ‘Snack’?]

[This person is a well-known food blogger. He has more than one million fans and specializes in food evaluation.]

The food blogger touched his hair and smiled shyly, “Host, I was about to shoot a review video. I just randomly clicked on the lottery, and I won!”

“Are these instant noodles what you’ll be taste-testing?”

“Yes, I like to eat sour beef noodles very much. I have been eating it since I was a kid. I’m going to make a general review of the five most popular sour beef noodles.”

An Rugu blinked, a glimmer of light flashed in her eyes, and she directly got to the matter at hand, “Then let’s start your divination. Please pay the divination fee, a high-powered gun salute.”

“Okay,” the food critic immediately gave a high-powered gun salute.

An Rugu took a sip of tea, moistened her throat, and said, “You were born in a rural area, your family is poor, you have two brothers and two sisters, you are the third in the family. Your father is alive and in good health, right?”

The food critic nodded fiercely. “Yes, I was born in a mountain village in the northwest. My family was very poor when I was a child, but now I am living a good life. I have basically found a job in the city. I have achieved good results in self-media, and I’m quite satisfied.”

“Three years ago, you embarked on your career and accumulated a lot of fans, right?”

The food critic smiled. “When I first started making videos, they weren’t very popular, and I really wanted to give up. But when I thought about the few fans I had, I felt like I had to keep filming for them. Later I found out the reason why I wasn’t popular. You see, I wasn’t very good at doing effects, my videos were too rigid. So I carefully thought about my lines and improved the quality of the video, and I finally got more fans. I calculate… it was indeed about three years ago that the popularity started to skyrocket.”

An Rugu said quietly, “Then have you decided what you want me to calculate for you?”

The food reviewer bit his lip and said, “I am quite healthy, so I want to calculate the health of my wife and daughter.”

He now has a good career and a good family relationship, but the most important thing was health.

An Rugu sighed softly, “It would be better if you don’t ask about the health of your family members. Your family members have no health problems, but you do.”

Food reviewer: “???”

Audience in the livestream channel: “???”

[Real or fake? He looks so strong, how could anything be wrong with his health?]

[I can’t tell at all.]

An Rugu’s clear and clean voice resounded in the livestream channel, “Your eight-character is on the 53rd year, it’s defeated by the 23rd year of the 60-year cycle, it means you have a stomach disease!”

The food reviewer took a deep breath and covered his stomach in horror. “Usually, when I eat spicy food, my stomach does feel a little painful. Is it true that I am sick?”

“Yes, and it’s not a minor illness. It’s caused by eating unhealthy food all year round.” An Rugu’s eyes fell on the row of steaming instant noodles in front of him, “For example, these instant noodles are very problematic.”

[I understand the streamer, instant noodles are high in oil and salt, and are inherently unhealthy foods. You should eat less of them.]

[I have watched the video of the predestined guest. He usually needs to review a lot of food. He has to eat a lot of things in one video, including spicy food, oil, salt, sugar, etc. It’s pretty much the same as food-eating livestream, it’s very taxing on the stomach.]

The food critic touched his head with some embarrassment, “I know, I’m going to the hospital for a physical examination soon. I will eat less junk food like instant noodles. From now on, I won’t eat other instant noodles—only my favorite. I love Jar-Fermented-Greens and Beef Noodles.”

As before, An Rugu didn’t praise him and instead frowned slightly, “That’s not what I meant. Everyone knows that instant noodles are unhealthy. What I want to say is that this one is particularly unhealthy.”

The food reviewer lowered his head and looked at the half-eaten Jar-Fermented-Greens and Beef Noodles which was still steaming in front of him.

He was curious, “Huh? Why is it unhealthy? It’s delicious. The sour taste is particularly refreshing. I’ve been eating it since I was a child.”

An Rugu sighed softly, “Actually, I have a friend who majors in food sanitation. Her graduation thesis was about jar-fermented-greens used by instant noodles. She once personally went to the factory that supplies jar-fermented-greens to instant noodle companies. The fermented greens there are grown in open pits. It is fermented in the open, and she saw with her own eyes that people were stepping on the greens with their bare feet to ferment it.”

Food reviewer: “???”

Audience in the livestream channel: “???”

T/N: Ugh. I hated this chapter.

Jar-fermented-greens is a particular kind of fermented vegetables done since ancient times. These are usually Chinese mustard greens, pickled during winter, with a specific ratio of water, wine, and seasonings, and placed in a CLEAN, AIRTIGHT JAR for fermentation—hence the name. And the understandable horror of the people realizing they’re mass produced in open pits and fermented that way.

These jar-fermented-greens give the soup a specific salty-sour-spicy taste that is very popular. This is similar to how Koreans add kimchi to their noodle soup.
