1424 Director Wang’s Ingratiation
After listening to Xiao Shan’s reply, Feng Yuanlin was completely in no mood to say anything else to him. He followed Xiao Shan to the car absent-mindedly.
As soon as he walked over, Chi Shuyan got out of the car and walked up to Feng Yuanlin. She couldn’t help but ask, “Brother Feng, where did you go just now?”
Feng Yuanlin originally wanted to tell Shuyan what had just happened and repeat his question. Xiao Shan was too carefree and couldn’t see anything – perhaps, Shuyan had noticed something. Unfortunately, before he could speak, the passenger seat door opened, and a tall and imposing man got out of the car and looked at them coldly.
Feng Yuanlin looked up and met that familiar pair of pitch-black and bottomless eyes. He shuddered and no longer had the slightest intention of explaining things to Shuyan. He obediently shut up and hurriedly said, “No… nowhere?”
Feng Yuanlin still wanted to say more, but for some reason, he thought of Zhenbai’s warning in the forest to stay away from Shuyan. Feng Yuanlin immediately backed away from her and said, “Shuyan, I’ll get into the car first.” He immediately got into the car in a hurry and didn’t say another word.
Speaking of which, he had never been afraid of Zhenbai before, but at that moment, that familiar figure not far away made him very afraid, especially when he thought of those red eyes.
Seeing that Brother Feng was in a hurry and didn’t have time to talk to her, Chi Shuyan felt that both his expression and behavior were a little strange.
“Wait, Shuyan, one question: Are the talismans you gave me effective on all otherworldly things, including those with human bodies?” Feng Yuanlin suddenly stopped and asked!
“Of course!” Chi Shuyan nodded without hesitation.
Feng Yuanlin was even more stupefied when he received Shuyan’s affirmative answer. He couldn’t figure out if Zhenbai was possessed or not.
What he was sure of, however, was that the difference between Zhenbai now and before was too great; it was strange and out of the ordinary.
After what happened just now, Feng Yuanlin couldn’t calm down at all. He rolled down the window and saw Zhenbai take the initiative to talk to Shuyan with an especially gentle expression.
For some reason, Feng Yuanlin felt even more uneasy. What if Zhenbai really was possessed by something with profound cultivation and Shuyan didn’t notice? Feng Yuanlin’s whole body turned numb at the thought and he was terribly worried that that thing had ulterior motives toward Shuyan.
No, he had to find a time to tell Shuyan about the abnormality with Zhenbai and warn her.
Feeling uneasy, Feng Yuanlin simply chose to roll up the window. Out of sight, out of mind.
Chi Shuyan didn’t know about Brother Feng’s worries. Seeing Qi Zhenbai take the initiative to talk to her, she didn’t deliberately avoid him.
After going through life and death together, the two of them breaking up felt like something that had happened in a past life.
Chi Shuyan was quite satisfied with the current distance between them, and was also very grateful to this man for taking action when they were in the village. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to take everyone out of the village so easily.
While she was talking to Qi Zhenbai, Chi Shuyan looked around and saw that almost everyone else had gotten into their cars. She also got in with the man.
Feng Yuanlin still wanted to say something, but when he saw the ‘possessed’ Zhenbai get into the car, he immediately shut up.
Chi Shuyan didn’t notice anything wrong with Brother Feng. She stepped on the gas and drove to the nearest hotel.
In Song Yanru’s van, Ruan Shenglin, Yang Kun, Director Wang and Yan Zhengming couldn’t wait to leave immediately. Before they left, Yan Zhengming turned on the headlights, which illuminated the area around the mountain village not far away.
The group stared as all the mountains in the area around the village collapsed and the ground shook.
There was no movement at all here; it was as if they were in another world altogether.
The people in the van were both flustered and stirred up by the scene.
If they had really lingered in the village or left a little later… they shuddered and didn’t dare think about the consequences, especially Director Wang. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead and he was traumatized. He made up his mind not to go to any especially remote mountain village ever again, no matter what movie he shot in the future.
What if he never returned after that?
No, he had to get Master Chi to help him take a look at the feng shui before shooting a movie in the future.
After that, Director Wang would always look for Chi Shuyan to look at the feng shui for every movie he filmed. Only after confirming that everything was fine would he shoot the movie. Not only that, Director Wang became a firm believer in Buddhism and superstitions. But this was a story for later.
Ruan Shenglin came back to his senses first and said to Yan Zhengming, who was driving, “Brother Yan, Master Chi’s car has left. Let’s hurry and follow!”
Yan Zhengming immediately stepped on the gas and followed.
Yan Zhengming left, and the other cars also scrambled to follow.
After more than half an hour, the cars stopped at the nearest hotel. This hotel was newly opened. Although it was a little small and couldn’t compare with a big hotel, it was pretty good and looked clean.
This hotel usually didn’t have much business. The boss and his wife were overjoyed at the sudden arrival of such a large group of people, and immediately welcomed them personally with the rest of the staff.
There were 40 to 50 people, and the hotel originally couldn’t accommodate so many guests. After that, many people chose to leave, mainly because they had just experienced life and death. Many people didn’t feel safe and wanted to go home, and Director Wang immediately let them do so.
As for Qin Qing, she didn’t get along with Chi Shuyan and the others to begin with, so she naturally wouldn’t choose to stay and look at their faces. She followed the first wave of people as she left with a cold face and returned to the capital.
After the group left, more than a dozen people were left behind. None of them had eaten dinner. Director Wang thoughtfully remembered that Master Chi hadn’t eaten, and immediately had the hotel boss and his wife hurry and prepare some dishes, and make them as lavish as possible. In short, he didn’t lack money.
At Director Wang’s instruction, the hotel owner and his wife, who had just been distressed over the loss of many potential guests, immediately cheered up and hurriedly agreed. “Okay, okay, okay, I’ll get someone to do it immediately!”
Chi Shuyan took the room card and was about to go upstairs, when Director Wang greeted her with excessive enthusiasm and fawned on her. “Master Chi, what would you like to eat for dinner?”
