Merchant of the Underworld

Everyone ran over to check the actor's injuries, and we also squeezed in. A camera weighing dozens of kilograms hit him on the head. He was unconscious on the spot, with blood flowing all over the floor. Although I'm still breathing, I'm afraid I'll have to lie down for a while.

Someone called 120. I called Li Mazi and Yin Xinyue aside and said, "I'm going to tell you something. Don't be afraid."

"What's wrong, Brother Zhang?" Yin Xinyue asked curiously.

"The mask of King Lanling is on Yi Xi!" I expressed my speculation.

From the first time we met, I felt there was a sinister aura about him, and twice I saw a ferocious grimace appear on his face, as if he was wearing a mask.

But I’m still not sure what function this Lanling King’s mask has and how it got onto him.

Yin Xinyue asked me to think about countermeasures. If an accident happens every three days, the show will definitely be bad, and the money invested will not be recovered by then.

I said we couldn’t go directly to Yi Xi to confirm this matter. He would definitely not admit it. If he was offended and something unexpected happened to us, it would be more than worth the loss. First of all, we need someone who can speak well in the crew. Portions of people help.

This person is undoubtedly the director!

I had to let the director know that Yi Xi had a problem, so I asked Yin Xinyue to do a small favor. I planned to be a charlatan tonight!

The director was busy, so we could only go back to the house and wait. After dark, I took some things with me and went to the waterhole with Li Mazi yesterday. Li Mazi complained and asked, "What are you doing here?" I said I wanted to catch ghosts.

Then I took out the statue of Mr. Guan from the bag, placed it on the ground, said I was offended, and covered Mr. Guan's eyes with a piece of red cloth.

I cut open a few more eels, smeared the statue with eel blood, placed it by the pool and asked Li Mazi to guard it, and told him to untie the red cloth immediately when the statue started to move!

I mixed the chili powder and salt, put it in a jar, carried it into the pool, and scattered it everywhere.

Although this pool has dried up, it is quite large. I spent almost an hour spraying before some footprints started to appear on the ground. I continued to scatter, and the footprints began to move towards the place where there was no chili powder. I took out the Sirius Whip and whipped it a few times, and a wisp of dark wind drifted out of the pool.

"It's moving, it's moving." Li Mazi shouted from the shore.

"Quickly untie the red cloth!"

I ran back to the shore. The statue of Mr. Guan was still shaking. Li Mazi asked in surprise: "Brother Zhang, what is the principle of this?"

"It's very simple. I trapped the three ghosts in the pool in Mr. Guan's belly." I explained.

"What, are you too disrespectful to the gods?" Li Mazi was startled.

"I'm going to break it to pieces later, and show it to the director in front of Yi Xi!"

I know this is a bit disrespectful, but only by taking advantage of the director's belief in Guan Erye can Yi Xi be exposed. After this is over, I plan to find a Guandi Temple to donate some incense money as an apology.

This statue itself is very yang-y, so the three ghosts cannot escape and can only keep struggling inside.

I burned some paper money for them and said to them coldly: "Do you want that mask? If so, be honest with me, or I will lock you in it for the rest of your life."

After saying this, they immediately stopped, and then I picked up Mr. Guan, who seemed a little heavier than before.

Li Mazi and I took the statue to the director's room. Yin Xinyue was dragging the director according to my plan. The two were chatting there. When he saw us coming in with Mr. Guan in his hands, the director immediately stood up.

"Mr. Zhang, where did you invite this Second Master Guan from?"

"County town, but don't worry, I have invited the spirit of your statue inside." I said with a smile.

The director was doubtful, so I placed the statue on the shrine and lit three pillars of incense as an offering.

"How was the actor this afternoon?" I asked.

"We are out of danger, but the doctor said that we were hit with a concussion and may have to rest for a while." The director offered us cigarettes, but we declined. He sighed and said, "There are hundreds of people in the crew. I was always afraid of something unexpected happening. Boss Zhang, just now Miss Yin said that you have a lot of things that can be transferred. I feel that I am a little unlucky this year, can you sell me one?"

"These negative things can indeed be transported, but they require the user to pay a high price. If you are not careful, it will lead to disaster." I changed the topic and said: "Actually, I think your own luck, director, is very good. You don't need to add anything. , just make a subtraction."

"Mr. Zhang, what is subtraction? Is there anything bad around me?" the director asked.

"To be honest, someone on your crew hid a very sinister thing, which is why the accident happened this afternoon." I approached the director mysteriously and said.

"All ears!" The director pricked up his ears.

"Let me ask you something first. Has Yi Xi's temperament changed drastically recently?"

"Why are you asking this? No." The director shook his head in confusion.

"What about other aspects?" I continued to ask.

The director thought for a while and patted his head: "By the way, at first we felt that he was not suitable to play the leading role. When we auditioned, we felt that his temperament was too feminine and not suitable for such a masculine role. When I pointed it out to him, he He even got angry with me. Alas, this young man is quite talented, but he has a bad temper."

"What happened next?" I asked.

"Later, his agent asked me to give Yi Xi another audition, so I gave him a chance. Unexpectedly, he felt completely different and the acting was very good, so I made him the leading actor!" The director himself He also said something strange.

I guess it must be because Yi Xi got the mask.

King Lanling wore a ghost mask because he was too beautiful and lacked masculinity. In a sense, this mask gives people confidence.

But I'm afraid it's not just as simple as confidence.

"I'll be honest, there is something wrong with Yi Xi!" I said to the director.

"Mr. Zhang, what do you mean, do you doubt my eyesight? The person I choose will definitely be right." The director was a little unhappy.

"No, no, you misunderstood. I wasn't talking about his character, but that there was something unclean on him. To verify, could you please call him over? As long as he walks into this room, you will It will become clear in a moment,” I said.

The director dubiously called Yi Xi and said he wanted to talk about the script, and Yi Xi agreed.

Yi Xi will definitely carry that mask with him. As soon as he walks into the house, the three ghosts will make a commotion, causing the statue of Guan Erye to crack, and the director will believe that there is something wrong with him.

Not long after, Yi Xi walked in and said with a smile: "Director, why do you want to see me so late? I have just taken off my makeup and am getting ready to go back to the hotel."

Seeing us all here, he was a little surprised: "Aren't we talking about the script? What are these two outsiders doing here, consultants?"

I glanced at the statue, and there was no movement from the statue. Isn't the mask on Yi Xi?

"It's like this. Mr. Zhang said that he wants to see you if he has something to do. Mr. Zhang, you'd better say it yourself." The director smiled sheepishly.

I felt embarrassed and was thinking about how to step down when Yi Xi’s manager walked in. At this time, the second master Guan on the shrine began to tremble violently like a bang, and only a crisp sound was heard. The second master Guan split into countless pieces, and a wisp of evil wind came out of it.

The three ghosts headed straight for the agent. When they were about to approach him, they seemed to hit an invisible wall and were instantly wiped out.

The scene of the statue exploding was witnessed by everyone present. The director was frightened. He looked at the statue for a while and then looked at his agent: "Xiao Song, is there anything bad about you?"

The agent said: "There is nothing. Director, please stop being suspicious. These charlatans must have tampered with the statue."

After saying that, he turned around and left. I stepped forward to stop him: "You can definitely check the statue to see if I have done anything to it! Otherwise, there is something wrong with you! Do you dare to take out the things in your arms? "

The agent subconsciously touched his collar and said calmly: "It's ridiculous, I have no idea what you are talking about."
