After Inheriting the Talent of the Undead, I Became Famous

Shi Xi, a struggling 108th-tier actress, gets entangled in a mysterious game. Initially believing it to be a deadly horror game, she discovers it’s actually a cheat code that grants her various ski...

Chapter 7

When Shi Xi's short video about the little wizard received more than 2 million likes, the teahouse released two other ancient style videos, which also received very good responses. Shi Xi's "three-no" account continued to gain followers.

Shi Xi originally thought that the teahouse had updated all the videos shot that day, and if there were no new original videos for a while, this wave of popularity would recede like the tide.

Unexpectedly, a video created by a fan made her popular again.

This blogger cut together the footage of Shi Xi’s live broadcast of exploring spirits and the footage of the little wizard.

Shi Xi, wearing a mask and holding a shovel, walked towards the camera with his long legs, handed out the shovel and said "Come on". The scene changed, and the little wizard Shi Xi caught a sword and danced with the sword gracefully with the narration "Come on".

The contrast of this video is even greater than those dress-up videos in the teahouse, and one person plays two roles, with silly actions and silly dialogues.

Shi Xi wanted to laugh when he saw it.

"Let me see who has such a wild imagination." Shi Xi clicked on the blogger's homepage and found that her profile had a Weibo account. It was the photographer "Random Shots" who had previously mistaken her for a tea artist.

In the comment section of this short video, the blogger pinned his own comment.

[I have been a huge fan of Xiao Shi recently. I discovered that she actually has two faces through archaeological research, so I came up with the idea of ​​having Xiao Shi, the corpse digger, and Xiao Shi, the wizard, talk to each other. Let me show you Xiao Shi's Weibo. Everyone, go watch her ghost-hunting live broadcast. Xiao Shi, the corpse digger, will definitely not let you down! ]

Shi Xi feels like she is being carried away by her fans, and this cute girl has carried her away twice.

After she forwarded this video, her Douyin and Weibo accounts began to gain followers rapidly, and the Douyin account with no followers already had 150,000 followers.

After the Little Mage became famous, she received many job offers, including from a catering brand with a similar positioning to the teahouse, a well-known Hanfu store, an original short drama, and even an idol drama that extended an olive branch.

The audition results haven't come out yet, Shi Xi wants to take a short-term job first, so he starts to select carefully.

Before a result was chosen, Jiaming contacted her.

Jiaming: [Transfer 30,000.00 to you. ]

Shi Xi's eyes widened and he replied, "Why are you sending me money all of a sudden?"

Jiaming: [This is the income from the two live broadcasts, including tips and commissions. After splitting it equally, each person gets 30,000 yuan. This is what you deserve. Feel free to take it.]

The revenue from this live broadcast is quite considerable, but those two live broadcasts were phenomenal and can only be encountered by chance.

After Shi Xi received the money, Jia Ming sent another new message.

Jiaming: [Transfer 170,000.00 to you. ]

Shi Xi: “?”

Jiaming: [Thank you for saving my life. This is a small token of my appreciation. Today’s limit has been reached. Please send me your bank card number.]

Shi Xi counted the zeros and asked him speechlessly, "How much more money do you want to give me?"

Jiaming: [I am now leaving home to start my own business, and my finances are tight. I plan to give you 500,000 first, and then pay you 500,000 in installments.]

There is a naive air of a rich second-generation in his words.

Given his naivety, Shi Xi had reason to believe that the 500,000 yuan was all his current savings.

Shi Xi returned the money: "I also became popular because of your live broadcast, so I don't need to pay you. We can still cooperate again if there is a chance in the future."

Jiaming: [There is a live variety show right now that wants to invite us to go together. Are you interested? ]

"What variety show?"

Jiaming: [It’s a live broadcast variety show about escape from a secret room that the live broadcast platform I signed a contract with Hamigua TV is cooperating with. It will start the day after tomorrow. They want to invite us to participate in one episode. Each person will be paid 10,000 yuan. It will take about half a day to record. I think there will be a bonus for the first place.]

【New task: record variety show;

Details: The live variety show "Boys and Girls Don't Be Afraid" invites you to participate in the recording;

Reward: Performing Arts Talent +5%;

Punishment: Unable to laugh (one day). 】

The old task has not been completed yet, and a new task has appeared. This punishment is still unethical.

Shi Xi replied to Jia Ming: "I'll go."

Shi Xi and Lin Wenyi reported that they would not take any other work for the time being and would wait until they finished recording the variety show.

After confirming his participation in the recording, Shi Xi added the program staff on WeChat and received specific work details.

This live variety show only has a permanent host, and different guests will be invited to each episode. Because the main theme is escape room with supernatural themes, we want to try to invite some guests who are interested in the supernatural, such as actors who have filmed supernatural films, ghost hunting anchors, up-hosts who comment on supernatural films, etc.

Although this variety show has a low budget, it has been in preparation for a long time, and the guest list for the first episode has been drawn up long ago. However, their two ghost-hunting live broadcasts were so successful that they successfully attracted the attention of the program team, and the director decided to add people temporarily.

In order to create a tense and exciting atmosphere, the broadcast time of this variety show is set at the transition between day and night.

This variety show does not have a script, and the guests are required to act in their true colors. The production team hopes that Shi Xi will participate in the recording as a corpse digger, and they also kindly said that they will prepare a wig and a shovel for her.

At four o'clock in the afternoon of the day of recording, Shi Xi and Jia Ming met at the recording site, which was a large escape room venue. The exterior was an abandoned hospital, which was deliberately made old and splashed with blood. From a distance, it looked like a scene from a horror movie.

The program crew took them to do their makeup and hair. Shi Xi only needed to put on some light makeup, put on a wig and a mask, and take a prop shovel, and it was done quickly.

Jiaming's makeup is more complicated, because his most popular look is the one with black finger marks all over his body.

Shi Xi was strolling around with a shovel and ran into Tang Niannian, with whom she had previously interviewed for "Phantom". She was wearing a school uniform, a ponytail, and bloodstained trouser legs, as if she had just stepped out of a campus horror movie.

Tang Niannian seemed to have filmed a supernatural movie, but Shi Xi couldn't remember it clearly.

Tang Niannian recognized Shi Xi at a glance and waved to her enthusiastically: "Shi Xi, we meet again! Your look is so classic."

Shi Xi was also very happy: "We are quite predestined. We haven't become colleagues in a movie yet, but we are colleagues in a variety show first. I want to ask, which movie is your character from?"

"It's 'Zero One Middle School'. I became famous thanks to that movie. By the way, I recently saw your video of a little wizard. I didn't expect that you could audition and work part-time at the same time!"

Tang Niannian met Shi Xi on that day, so she was more deeply moved than others when she saw those scenes: "Those videos were shot very well, and they have a Wuchen feel."

Shi Xi curled his eyes: "I wanted to refuse, but the manager of the teahouse said he would provide a working meal for 3999 yuan."

Tang Niannian laughed out loud: "You are so funny. I heard that the casting for the movie will be finalized in two days. Regardless of whether we can be selected together, I hope to make you my friend."

"It's my pleasure." Shi Xi looked at the school uniform on Tang Niannian, and an idea about live broadcasting flashed through his mind. His eyes lit up: "I have an idea. Let's go talk to the director."

At 5:30 in the evening, "Boys and Girls Don't Be Afraid" officially started broadcasting.

Viewers gradually entered the live broadcast room.

A ticking clock sounded in the live broadcast room, and an abandoned hospital shrouded in dusk appeared in the center of the screen. The peeling pale tiles, the spreading dead vines, and the bloodstained walls gave the abandoned hospital a spooky atmosphere.

The camera cuts to the hospital lobby and shows Jiaming, who is holding a live broadcast device with a terrified look in his eyes: "Welcome to the ghost-hunting live broadcast room. I am Jiaming. This time I really encountered a supernatural event..."

"Let's get to the point," Shi Xi moved the camera to herself. She was wearing a mask, revealing only her distinct black and white peach blossom eyes and her iconic red teardrop mole. "I'm Xiao Shi. When Jia Ming and I were exploring a haunted house, we were transferred to this space by a mysterious force. This should be an abandoned hospital, and all exits have been blocked."

"In addition to us, thirteen other citizens have been transferred here. There are many familiar faces among them. What's even more strange is that there are people from different worlds..." She moved the camera to Tang Niannian: "Sister, what's your name, and what were you doing before you came here?"

Tang Niannian glanced timidly and said, "I am a student of Lingyi Middle School, my name is Niannian. At 11 o'clock this evening, I left the classroom after evening self-study, but found blood everywhere in the corridor. A bloody person crawled out of the classroom. I was so scared that I ran away... In the blink of an eye, I came here. Where is this place? Who are you? Am I being pranked?"

"No, you traveled through time," Shi Xi said, "In my world, you are a character in a supernatural movie."

Tang Niannian froze: "Are you kidding?"

[What she said is true. I can prove it. I have seen the movie. It is called "Zero-One Middle School"! ]

[I can prove it, and I can even give you a spoiler: the one who crawled out of the classroom and chased you was actually your dead self!]

[I originally thought it was a mediocre live variety show, but I didn't expect the setting to be so exciting! Whose idea was this opening? The production team should give him a bonus~]

[Don't rush to praise the first part, this is just an 18th-tier variety show, the guests are all internet celebrities and unknown celebrities, only Tang Niannian is relatively well-known, I think it will fail sooner or later.]

[What the above person said makes sense. Aren’t there many live variety shows that have failed these days? ]

[Who is this guest wearing a mask? ]

[She is a corpse digger. A while ago, her ghost-hunting live broadcast with Jiaming became popular, and it is also very popular on a certain audio platform.]

Other guests appeared in Shi Xi's camera one after another.

Da Hu, a ghost hunting anchor on the same platform as Jia Ming, crossed his arms with an arrogant expression: "I am Da Hu, known as the number one ghost hunter in the world. I have seen more ghosts than you have eaten salt. No matter where this is, as long as you hold on to Brother Hu's thighs, I will definitely take you to fly."

"Is it your turn to lead the way here?" The host of the supernatural game whistled: "I have played 800 supernatural games, and no routine or level can escape my eyes."

Shi Xi pointed the camera at the next guest, a girl in a light yellow dress: "Girl, introduce yourself."

The girl turned away her eyes, her expression a little unnatural: "My name is Lu Lanlan."

Shi Xi touched his chin and said, "This name sounds familiar." It seems like I've heard it somewhere.

The girl's eyes widened and she asked in disbelief: "You don't know me?"

Jiaming answered quickly: "I know, you are the sister of the female ghost in the supernatural micro-film "Midnight Song"!"

[She doesn't even know Lan Lan. Tang Niannian and Lan Lan are the most popular here, okay? ]

[Come for Lanlan~Lanlan's wife is so beautiful~]

[Why don't you take off your mask at this hour? Can you only see with your eyes? 】
