He Jiong and Huang Lei were slightly surprised when they heard this. If it was just an impromptu song, it could be done anytime, anywhere. However, performing magic generally required preparation in advance, and it was more professional. After all, there were cameras at every angle in the room, and there were also videographers carrying equipment shooting. If the technique was not professional, it would be easy to be exposed.
Although this was a recorded program, and even if the performance failed, it would definitely not be broadcast. However, they felt that Xia Ruofei would definitely feel embarrassed. Moreover, from the attitude of the station leaders, it could be said that the station valued Xia Ruofei to an unprecedented degree. This made He Jiong a little cautious.
Should they really let Xia Ruofei perform a magic trick? He Jiong was a little hesitant.
Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "Teacher He, I'm just performing a little magic trick to liven things up. If it really gets exposed, just don't laugh at me."
After hearing Xia Ruofei's words, He Jiong felt a lot more relaxed. He thought for a moment and said, "Since Boss Xia is so interested, then let's... give him a round of applause!"
"Okay!" Peng Chang was the first to clap and respond heartlessly.
Then, Huang Lei and Zhang Xing also clapped.
Xia Ruofei stood up with a smile, made a downward gesture with his hands, and said, "Everyone! Everyone! I'm just a magic enthusiast, and I can't compare to a professional magician. Don't laugh at me if I make a fool of myself! "
"No! No! "He Jiong said with a smile," Boss Xia, we're all looking forward to it! Please start your performance! "
Xia Ruofei nodded. After pondering for a moment, he looked at the small table around which everyone was sitting. He needed to find a prop at the last minute.
Actually, how could Xia Ruofei know any magic tricks? It was just that he had the Ring-Tu space, and as a cultivator, if he really wanted to hide it, how could He Jiong and the others see through it?
Soon, Xia Ruofei's gaze fell on a can of tea leaves in the middle of the table. It was Taoyuan Da Hong Pao. The program team had placed Taoyuan Da Hong Pao in several places, and the Taoyuan logo was facing the camera. This was to help increase the exposure of the Taoyuan Company.
Xia Ruofei immediately came up with a plan in his mind.
He opened the can of tea leaves with a smile and said, "This is a can of Taoyuan Da Hong Pao. Although it's a product of our company, it was provided by the program team.. I had no contact with this can of tea leaves before this. Teacher He, please check it first! "
He Jiong took the tea canister, and the cameraman immediately came up to take a close-up.
He Jiong smiled and said, "This is indeed an unopened can of tea leaves. Everyone, look, the plastic seal on the outer packaging is still intact! I can testify, there is absolutely nothing in this can of the tea leaves! "
Xia Ruofei smiled and nodded. "Teacher He, then I'll have to trouble you to open it!"
“ok!” "He Jiong said as he tore open the packaging. He then lifted the lid of the tea leaves and asked," What's next? "
"Take out three bags of tea leaves," Xia Ruofei said.
The Taoyuan Da Hong Pao sold to the public came in small packages. It was very convenient to use a small bag every time to brew tea. There were about 20 bags of tea leaves in the tea leaves. He Jiong randomly took out three bags and looked at Xia Ruofei.
Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "Teacher He, just put the tea leaves on the table … Peng Peng, can I trouble you to go to the kitchen and get two bowls?"
"Okay!" Peng Chang immediately got up and walked quickly to the kitchen not far away. After a while, he came back with two bowls.
"Thank you!" Xia Ruofei said with a smile after taking the bowls.
He first tore a small hole in each of the three bags of tea leaves to distinguish them from the rest of the tea leaves in the can. He then placed the two bowls behind the three bags of tea leaves and sat down cross-legged.
He Jiong, Huang Lei, Peng Chang, and Zhang Xing naturally came over. The cameraman also came over to take close-up shots.
Xia Ruofei chuckled as he flipped the bowls upside down and said, "Look, everyone. Peng Peng just brought these two bowls from the kitchen. They are just ordinary ceramic bowls without any mechanism. You can check them!"
Peng Chang raised his hand and said, "There's no need to check. I used one of the bowls for dinner today!"
Everyone burst into laughter.
Xia Ruofei asked Huang Lei to check the two bowls. After confirming that there were no problems, he said, "Okay, there are two bowls and three bags of tea leaves. Next, I'll take a bag of tea leaves and cover the bowls …"
Xia Ruofei said as he did. After covering a bag of tea leaves under the bowls, he picked up another bag of tea leaves and covered the bowls in the same way. Finally, he grabbed the third bag of tea leaves with his hand.
Then, Xia Ruofei blew at the bowl on the right and opened it with his hand. There were two bags of tea leaves in it. Then, Xia Ruofei covered the bowl again and blew at it again.
At this time, Xia Ruofei opened the bowl on the left. Everyone gasped. There should have been a bag of tea leaves in the bowl, but it was empty at this time.
Xia Ruofei smiled and opened the bowl on the right. There were two bags of tea leaves in it, but when he opened it again, all three bags of tea leaves were on the other side. It was as if Xia Ruofei had teleported them over after blowing at them.
"Good!" Zhang Xing was the first to praise and then applaud.
Huang Lei and the others naturally applauded as well.
He Jiong clapped and said with a smile, "I've heard of Boss Xia's magic trick before. It's called 'Three Immortals Return to the Cave'. It's a very traditional magic trick, but the performers usually use a sponge ball, which is easier to hide in the palm of their hand. Using a bag of tea leaves like Boss Xia is definitely more difficult! Also, I observed it carefully just now and really didn't find any flaws. Boss Xia's technique is very clever! "
Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "Thank you for your praise, Teacher He … However, my magic trick is a little different from the traditional Three Immortals Return to the Cave!"
He Jiong looked a little confused and asked, "I saw the whole process just now. It was the Three Immortals Return to the Cave magic trick …"
Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "Then I'll perform it for everyone again!"
Xia Ruofei's movements were too fast the first time, so Huang Lei and the others didn't see it clearly. Although the Three Immortals Return to the Cave magic trick had been revealed a long time ago and He Jiong had seen the related videos, he really didn't see any flaws in it. Therefore, Xia Ruofei was willing to perform it again. Everyone stared at Xia Ruofei's hands with wide eyes.
Xia Ruofei calmly placed the three bags of tea leaves side by side and lifted the two bowls.
The process was exactly the same as before. Each bowl was covered with a bag of tea leaves, then he picked up the last bag of tea leaves with his hand and blew on it. He opened the bowl on the right and found two bags of tea leaves inside.
Xia Ruofei asked with a smile, "Teacher He, how many bags of tea leaves do you think are in the bowl on my left?"
He Jiong had seen the revealing video, so he was sure that Xia Ruofei had used a trick when he first covered the bowl on the left. In fact, the bag of tea leaves wasn't in the bowl, but hidden in his hand. Then, when he covered the bowl on the right, he put the bag of tea leaves in. That was why the effect of there being two bags of tea leaves under the bowl on the right appeared.
In this way, the bowl on the left should be empty because the tea leaves weren't put in at all.
He Jiong didn't intend to say it out loud. After all, if he hadn't seen the revealing video, he definitely wouldn't have been able to see the mystery behind it.
However, Xia Ruofei had taken the initiative to ask, and Xia Ruofei had successfully performed this magic trick before, so He Jiong didn't have so many concerns. He said without hesitation, "It should be empty!"
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "That might not be the case!"
With that said, Xia Ruofei blew on his palm, then pointed at the bowl on the left and said, "Can I trouble Teacher He to open it?"
This time, Xia Ruofei didn't touch the bowl directly, but let He Jiong do it for him.
He Jiong saw with his own eyes that Xia Ruofei took the third bag of tea leaves during the whole process. After that, he didn't touch the bowl on the left. The bowl on the right was now open, and the remaining two bags of tea leaves were there.
Under such circumstances, Xia Ruofei didn't have a chance to put the tea leaves into the bowl. Even if his technique was brilliant and he hid the tea leaves without anyone noticing, it was impossible for him to put the tea leaves under the bowl in front of everyone.
Therefore, He Jiong confidently opened the bowl.
However, the next moment, he was stunned. There was also a bag of tea leaves under the bowl on the left!
In fact, Xia Ruofei didn't use any magic tricks at all. He just covered the two bags of tea leaves with the bowls, and when he grabbed the third bag of tea leaves, he instantly put it into the space. Then, he immediately took it out of the space and directly let it appear under the bowl on the right.
At such a close distance, and the bag of tea leaves was so small and light, with Xia Ruofei's level of mental strength and his connection with the Ring-Tu space, he could naturally hit wherever he wanted without any deviation.
This time, even the staff outside couldn't help but look amazed.
Under the eyes of so many people, Xia Ruofei's magic trick was obviously much more exciting than the traditional "Three Immortals Return to the Cave".
Xia Ruofei smiled and placed the bowl and tea leaves back in their original positions.
Then, he performed a series of dazzling operations. The process was exactly the same as the first time he performed the magic trick. He was now getting more and more familiar with it.
When he showed the two bags of tea leaves under the bowl on the right, he reached out and covered the bowl. Then, he blew on it and asked with a smile, "Guess, how many bags of tea leaves are in the bowl on my right?"
According to the traditional process of the Three Immortals Return to the Cave magic trick, the bowl on the right naturally had three bags of tea leaves, and the bowl on the left had none.
However, He Jiong wasn't so confident this time. He said with some uncertainty, "Three bags?"
Xia Ruofei smiled and didn't say anything. He reached out and opened the bowl.
It was empty!
Not a single bag of tea leaves!
He Jiong was a little dumbfounded. After a while, he said, "Are they all in the bowl on the left? That's impossible! "
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "Then, would you please open it, Teacher He?"
He Jiong flipped the bowl open. Huang Lei and the others suddenly let out a cry of surprise. There was also not a single bag of tea leaves!
"That's amazing …" Zhang Xing couldn't help but ask, "Boss Xia, where did the tea leaves go?"
Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "That's hard to say … Maybe one of us here likes our company's Peach Garden Da Hong Pao very much and secretly hid it!"
If they didn't use this opportunity to gain some exposure for Peach Garden Da Hong Pao, when would they wait?
Peng Chang grinned and said, "Then there's only one possibility. Those three bags of tea leaves are all hidden on Boss Xia! It's just that his movements were too fast, so we didn't see it! "
Xia Ruofei laughed and reached out to pat Peng Chang on the shoulder. He said, "I think Peng Peng is very suspicious! This is called a thief pretending to be a thief! "
Peng Chang stood up and said, "Impossible! Boss Xia guessed wrong this time! I'm sure I didn't take the tea leaves! If you don't believe me, you can search me! "
Peng Chang patted his chest as he spoke, looking very confident.
However, he noticed that He Jiong, Huang Lei, and the others looked a little strange. They were all looking at the same place: his right trouser pocket.
There seemed to be a bulge there …
