"The tendons in the legs and hands are all broken?" Xianjin raised his doubts at the right time.
Chen Fu ignored Xianjin's doubts and continued to express his emotions crazily - he hadn't written a book recently, and he was overwhelmed with desire to express himself and urgently needed an outlet.
"That old student wasn't the worst case. The worst case was the eldest son of the Bai family. It was said that his four limbs were broken one by one for four consecutive nights. A note was left saying that the result would be known on the fifth day. The Bai family was very scared."
Chen Fu lowered his voice, his tone horrified and suppressed, "What do you think is after the limbs?"
Chen Fu threw out a joke with great interest - he has been studying Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio recently, and the stories about humans, ghosts, gods and monsters are really interesting.
It seems even funnier to make the audience so amused that they are afraid to go to the toilet in the middle of the night.
Xianjin wiped the sweat from practicing Tai Chi and looked at Chen Fu expressionlessly.
Chen Fu silently looked away.
Well, if the audience remains emotionally stable and strong, even if there are eight scary jokes, they can still go to the toilet smoothly...
Chen Fu pursed his lips and said, "On the fifth night, Mr. Bai spent a lot of money to hire three nimble martial artists to guard Bai Dalang at the door. Unexpectedly, the visitors never showed up, so Bai Dalang's fragile and shriveled neck was naturally saved."
After the limbs, the next next comes naturally: the neck.
If the limbs are broken, there is still a chance of survival, but if the neck is broken, there is really no way to save the life.
The person who came wanted Bai Dalang to die.
Very violent.
Xianjin had a vague guess in his mind.
"For several days afterwards, everyone in the Bai family was in a state of panic. The hired martial artists stood guard at Bai Dalang's door day and night." Chen Fu smacked his lips. "Personally, I think these three masters should ask for a pay raise."
Xianjin couldn't help but smile.
Chen Fu continued, while trying out some thriller and suspense stories. He stretched his neck and his voice was deliberately winding and twisted like a snake. "Perhaps the hero wanted to trick the Bai family, or maybe he was reminded by someone. Anyway, he never showed up, so the Bai family relaxed and asked doctors to come in for a check. Bai Dalang's limbs were tied with wooden boards, and it is said that at night, hehehe——"
"——Then Bai Dalang hid in the closet, fearing that he would be discovered. He looked out through the gap in the closet and saw a piece of white. He was puzzled. What was that piece of white?"
"The next morning, he suddenly remembered, isn't the human eyeball white?"
Suo'er hugged her shoulders and screamed involuntarily, "Ahhh——"
Chen Fu laughed happily, looking at Xianjin while laughing, rubbing his hands, waiting for his little one's reaction.
Xianjin looked calm, raised his eyes and asked his cheap father, "...If you write horror ghost stories, it seems that the audience is relatively small. Even Boss Shang would probably only dare to print a hundred copies for you."
Xianjin calmly drank a sip of tea and said, "Your experience-related articles are very popular. Wouldn't it be too risky to change at this time?"
Chen Fu: ...
Is it possible that a fat middle-aged man who suddenly starts telling you stories is not seeking guidance on his career path?
Maybe he just wanted to show off?
Chen Fu put his coat on his shoulders, his back looking desolate and lonely.
Although this little cotton jacket brought him endless wealth, it also freed him from worries.
well.
It's really distressing.
......
Although Chen Fu's description incorporated some literary rhetoric, the situation of the Bai family was indeed very bad.
First and foremost, Bai Dalang's mental state was very worrying. Under long-term fear and severe pain, Bai Dalang actually had hallucinations, and he kept shouting that a monster with three heads and six arms was holding a crescent-shaped scimitar to chop him.
It was clearly the wind that blew the fallen leaves on the ground into a trail, but he insisted that it was the monster dragging its knife and leaving scratches on the ground.
He even suspected that his father had poisoned him, so he poured the boiling hot medicine on his father's face, causing both the father and son to suffer.
All in all, this Bai Dalang is described as sneaky, with rude words and deeds... He must be possessed by something - the masses' way of thinking is simple and crude, and since materialism doesn't work, everyone starts to follow suit and engage in idealism.
Some say it is a fox from the Hu family, some say it is a weasel from the Huang family, and some say it is a white snake from the Liu family.
There are many different opinions about what species it is, and everyone is full of gossip.
The discussion on this issue in Xuancheng intensified, and even spawned many literary works. Mr. Qin loved to take advantage of the hot topics, so he wrote the literary masterpiece "The White Snake Possessed My Body and the Eight Babies Ran Away with the Baby" in volumes one, two and three. It gossiped, engaged in feudal superstitions, and talked about love at the same time, and it caused a strong response as soon as it was published.
In comparison, Mrs. Xiao Fu Airong's new work "Ghost Choosing the Door" is much inferior. It focuses on feudal superstition, with a few gossips, and unfolds the story around betrayal, greed, indulgence, stubbornness and other evil forces using the door as an opportunity. Xianjin thinks it is well written, but its popularity is far less than "The White Snake Possessed Me and the Eighth Babies Ran Away with the Baby".
What does this prove?
It proves that thrillers and suspense stories can never beat romance.
In Wei Entertainment (Great Wei Dynasty Entertainment), if Chi You comes, you all have to ride on a panda and fall in love!
It was announced that two local celebrities in the prefecture had published new books one after another. At one time, many storybooks came out, some criticizing current social ills and some continuing love affairs. Literary works emerged in an endless stream, which could be described as a cluster of flowers.
Xianjin:...
Turbulent current events are a breeding ground for the entertainment industry, as are gossip and feudal superstition.
Apart from the flourishing literary and artistic circles in Xuancheng Prefecture caused by Bai Dalang, the Bai family also faced the abandonment of stable customers and hesitation of suppliers. When the official customers heard that Mr. Bai was thrown out by Cao Fucheng of Yingtian Prefecture, no one dared to continue cooperating with the Bai family.
