Little Metaphysical Zombie, Please Act Human in the Entertainment Industry

Xia Yiqian, a little zombie who dreams of cultivating into a human, sleeps for 5000 years. Upon waking, she finds a wealthy benefactor to build her a temple. She aims to collect faith to achieve hu...

Chapter 53: Xia Yiqian: Is it wrong to be honest? Is lying not a bad habit these days?

Under normal circumstances, Tao Yang might not be so eager to ask Xia Yiqian to go with him to look for someone, but now human lives are at stake, and he is not sure what will happen to the person if he goes too late.

Xia Yiqian didn't know much about the entertainment industry, but from what Tao Yang said, he seemed to know a lot, so she didn't object.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "It might be troublesome to go all over the mountains to look for him. Why don't I tell him his fortune?"

Qingyun Temple is so big, and there are mountains and forests all around it. If we search bit by bit, how long will it take?

Tao Yang felt relieved when he heard Xia Yiqian's words. He was really afraid that Xia Yiqian would refuse. After all, as she had said before, this matter had nothing to do with her.

He clasped his hands together and bowed to her, "Then we have Miss Lao Xia."

Xia Yiqian nodded, and just as she was about to count on her fingers, she heard a quarrel not far away, and her name was mentioned in the quarrel.

I subconsciously looked back and saw Meranda arguing with a staff member.

She looked at the staff member with an angry expression and shouted in broken Mandarin, "How can you say that to Xia Yiqian? You clearly know nothing!

You are such an ungrateful person!"

The staff member didn't expect that his whispered conversation with his companion would be heard by others, and a look of embarrassment suddenly appeared on his face.

But when he heard Melanda scolding him, the embarrassment disappeared instantly, leaving only anger in his chest.

"How could I be ungrateful? Was there anything wrong with what I said?

We were shouting for help outside for such a long time, but Xia Yiqian didn't come out to help. It was only after someone said that the show could not be broadcast that she came out. Isn't such a person cold-blooded and selfish?

Don't tell me he's sleeping in there! The noise outside is so loud that even a vegetative person would be woken up! "

Meranda's speech was not very fluent. The speed of switching between her native language and Mandarin in her mind was too slow, so all the words were stuck in her throat and she couldn't say them, causing her face to turn red from holding her breath.

"You know nothing! She's been drawing talismans in the tent!

The same talisman her assistant used, one that could keep ghosts away! She had already drawn over thirty of them, with ten more to go.

But because of you guys shouting, his talismans burned themselves out, so he had no choice but to come out and hit you!"

The staff member felt guilty for a moment, but the scene he saw this morning was so terrifying that he could not forgive anyone for not helping him in that situation.

He immediately hated Xia Yiqian even more in his heart, "That's all you said, who can prove it?

Just because she takes out a few talismans from her pocket, should I believe that she drew them for us?

And he has the ability to exorcise ghosts, so why would he use such a time-wasting method? What if someone outside dies because of her delay?

She doesn't really want the old one!"

Meranda was so angry at his words that she jumped up and down, "You are so unreasonable!"

As he spoke, he pulled out a crystal ball from his ancient robe and said angrily, "You must have done a lot of bad things in the past. I will expose all your bad deeds to the public!"

The crystal ball is useless in the hands of ordinary people, but in the hands of these witches it can predict the past and the future. Since they can't win the argument, let's fight!

Seeing that the matter was about to develop into the direction of prying into other people's privacy and being sent to the police station, the staff member's face suddenly became panicked.

The next second, he felt his shoulders sink as if something was pressing down on him.

Zhao Xun put one arm on the staff member's shoulder, with a cold expression on his face.

"You, a grown man, standing there waiting for a little girl to rescue you, is that honorable?"

When the staff member heard what Zhao Xun said, his face immediately turned red.

He stammered, "But, but I'm not a master of the mystical arts. How can I deal with those ghosts?"

Zhao Xun chuckled, "If you can't handle it, that's your problem, how can you morally blackmail others?

No matter what kind of master, no one is born with the ability to deal with ghosts and monsters. They all have to work hard.

Especially in Taoism, the runes and spells cannot be wrong at all, otherwise it may cause serious consequences."

As he spoke, he looked coldly at the staff in front of him and stared at them, "So how can you have the nerve to steal the fruits of others' labor for more than ten years or even decades without any burden?

Do you even think that if someone doesn't share the fruits of their labor with you, they are heartless and ruthless?"

It's not just Xia Yiqian, all of them are like this.

"Benefiting the world" and "protecting all living beings" are their philosophies, but they are not reasons for others to make empty demands of them.

They say that they do things just for money and have no sympathy and will not help others when they see injustice, but they don’t think about which mortal can live without food?

Whether out of empathy or out of indignation, Zhao Xun looked down on such people.

"It's not my responsibility to make you believe me."

Before the staff member, who felt humiliated, could reply, a clear female voice was heard from the side.

It was Xia Yiqian who heard them mention her and walked over to stand not far away from them.

Several people felt a little embarrassed when they saw Xia Yiqian. It was really unbearable that they were caught talking about others behind their backs.

The staff member was a little embarrassed and annoyed. "What do you mean by that? Just because you've learned so many tricks, don't you have the obligation to help the weak in that situation?"

Xia Yiqian had a serious face, and her clear eyes were full of seriousness. "No."

Everyone present: ...
