Chapter 104



The day after Xiguang left, Shixi realized one thing: she was not used to separation yet.

Every day when she woke up, there would no longer be anyone to prepare breakfast and shyly call her to eat. The incense burner on the dining table was always empty.

Shi Xi lowered his eyes, but still lit a stick of incense on Xiguang's incense burner.

On this day, several other contracted ghosts were unusually active, wanting to make Shi Xi happier.

Shi Xi was quiet for a long time, and suddenly said, "I know what novel I want to write."

Without further ado, everyone knew what she was thinking.

San Chi Qing said: "Have you filled the two holes you opened in the literature forum before?"

Shi Xi said: "It's just the end."

"Well, it's better to have a beginning and an end," Sanchiqing smiled at her, "After finishing those two short stories, your practice task will be completely over. Just write whatever you want and enjoy your creation."

Shi Xi spent a day finishing two short stories that he had practiced in a literary forum.

When the ending was announced, readers in the forum were very reluctant to let it go.

[A very exciting suspense short story. Every twist and turn gives me goosebumps. I'm great. When will you start a new story? ]

[It’s actually finished, my youth is over! 】

[I feel that these two ideas are very suitable for being made into micro-movies or animations. They are so exciting. ]

[Mr. Shenxian, these two novels have brought up the heat of the forum! Recently, many people have spontaneously recommended your novels! 】

The author "我很好", nicknamed "不不大", has started a forum-wide trend of following updates with his two suspense short stories.

After that, she never came online again.

At the same time, the number one novel website on the Internet has a new author, whose pen name is "Cong Feng Yuan Xing".

Her first published novel, titled "Huadan," tells the story of a talented Yue opera and film actress.

Shi Xi wants to use words to record the stories of his friends. Even if one day they all leave, these stories will continue to accompany him and will never disappear.

The story she wanted to write had already existed in her mind and memory. After Shi Xi typed the first word, the words grew wildly under her fingertips, leading to vivid plots.

In mid-January, "Muse", which had been filmed for more than three months, was completed.

"Muse" begins with the mysterious death of Yue Opera actress Jie Yubai. Profiler Jiang Ruxing and composer Shan Yue track down the murderer in different ways, only to find out that the three of them were childhood playmates and grew up together in the same orphanage. Later, they were adopted by different families and lost in the crowd.

This made Shan Yue and Jiang Ruxing more determined to find out the real culprit.

The murderer has not been found yet, and three more murders with the same modus operandi have occurred in the city.

At the end of the movie, Jiang Ruxing completed the profile of the murderer with great difficulty, only to discover that the murderer who killed those three people was... Shan Yue!

These three people were the culprits in the murder of Jie Yubai. After Shan Yue accidentally learned the truth, she concealed the truth and judged the murderer in the same way as the murderer did.

The final scene of "Muse" was the last scene between Jiang Ruxing and Shan Yue.

At this time, Shan Yue had no way to escape. She sat in front of the piano with her back to the police who came to arrest her. Her slender white fingers rested on the keys, like a pair of priceless bone china.

"You always said that Xie Yubai was your muse," Jiang Ruxing stood behind her, her fingertips trembling, but her voice was cold and calm. "In fact, after you saw Xie Yubai's body, you realized that your real muse was 'death'. You first met at the funeral of Master Xie Yubai, and what excited you at the time was not the mourning play sung by Xie Yubai, but death itself. So after you knew the truth, you chose to kill the murderer and use death to inspire inspiration."

Shan Yue pressed the piano keys. The piano reflected her face, which had a cold, almost numb smile on it: "This song is beautiful, right? From the first time I met Xie Yubai, this melody has been ringing in my mind, and now it is finally completed."

The depressing melody echoed in the empty living room. It seemed to move the light and shadow and make the bones bloom with gorgeous flowers.

Jiang Ruxing gritted her teeth and said, "In order to complete this piece of music, you destroyed yourself!"

"You don't seem to want to listen, that's all." Shan Yue sighed, stood up and faced Jiang Ruxing. Even at this moment, she didn't look embarrassed at all: "Let's go."

But Jiang Ruxing stepped forward and grabbed her by the collar: "When you made this choice, have you ever thought that you still have friends in this world?"

"I will take responsibility for the crimes I have committed and face my death calmly. Unfortunately, it cannot serve as inspiration and be written on the piano score..." The faint smile on Shan Yue's face froze because she saw Jiang Ruxing crying.

Jiang Ruxing loosened her collar: "Mad."

Shan Yue was handcuffed, and the two passed by each other. Jiang Ruxing's eyes were red as rabbits, full of forbearance. She didn't see that for the first time, regret appeared in Shan Yue's cold eyes.

The three of them had spent a difficult yet wonderful childhood together, but took different paths after adulthood.

"Ka!" Xiao Xiayan's voice was choked with sobs, and she announced with red eyes: "Muse, it's finished!"

"Congratulations to Mr. Ruan and Mr. Shi for completing the filming successfully!"

“Thank you for your hard work, teachers!”

There was cheering on the set, everyone wiped away their tears and presented bouquets of flowers to the actors.

“Take a photo, take a photo!”

Shi Xi and Ruan Shu leaned together and took a photo. Xiao Xiayan came forward to hug them and said, "Thank you for making Muse a success."

Shi Xi has a good temper and is not arrogant. She is a very popular person in the crew. Both the actors and crew members like her very much and boldly ask for photos with her.

Surrounded by the crowd, Shi Xi looked behind the camera, where her friends, whom only she could see, were also smiling at her.

After the filming of "Muse" was completed, Shi Xi had no time to rest at all - "Phantom" and "Sword Shining in Frost" were scheduled to be released during the Spring Festival and will be released on the first day of the Lunar New Year. She will be busy promoting the movies for the next half month.

The roadshows for the two films received very enthusiastic responses, and Shi Xi even became a hot topic on the individual search list because her raw photos were so beautiful.

"Sword Shining in the Frost" has a luxurious cast and has been long awaited by the public. After the release date was announced, it gained a lot of popularity and topped the "want to watch list". "The Phantom" ranked fourth because of Shi Xi.

As soon as pre-sales started, "Sword Shining in the Frost" quickly broke through 100 million yuan, and "Phantom" also broke through 50 million yuan at an incredible speed, ranking fourth on the pre-sale list. In addition, a family comedy movie ranked second and a science fiction movie ranked third.

Wuyou Temple now has a large number of believers. This year's New Year's Eve ceremony has more believers participating than in previous years. New Year activities are scheduled from New Year's Eve to the Lantern Festival. The people in Wuyou Temple want to watch Shi Xi's movies but cannot spare the time for the time being.

However, Shi Xi received an invitation from Tang Niannian on the morning of New Year's Day.

Tang Niannian sent movie tickets and said excitedly: "This is the first time that a movie is released during the Spring Festival. How about we go to the cinema together to feel the warm atmosphere?"

"Phantom" is Shi Xi's big screen debut and it will be released during the Spring Festival, so of course she is very excited.

So the two of them disguised themselves and chose a movie theater with the most expensive ticket price inside the mall.

Tang Niannian bought a ticket for the morning show. She originally thought that since they arrived early, the cinema wouldn't be too crowded. However, they still underestimated the flow of people during the Spring Festival. There were people coming and going everywhere. Fortunately, they were wearing thick winter clothes and disguised themselves successfully, so no one noticed them.

After checking their tickets, the two walked into the screening room in a low-key manner and came to the corner seat of the last row.

After Shi Xi and Tang Niannian became famous, the sponsor of "Phantom" made additional investments, spending a lot of money on special effects alone, and carefully polishing it for several months before delaying the release to the Spring Festival. Apart from anything else, the visual effects are really amazing, and the audience cheered in unison when the high-energy scenes appeared.

When the Buddhist son played by Shi Xi appeared on stage, he also received the same treatment, and the atmosphere in the screening room was very good.

Shi Xi even found two of his fans sitting in the front row. When Fozi appeared, Shi Xi heard them talking in low voices.

"It's out, it's a limited edition bald hour."

"I want to touch the bald head."

Tang Niannian also heard it, and nudged her shoulder with his shoulder and chuckled.

Shi Xi's ears turned red.

At the end of the movie, the Buddhist Wu Chen blocked the last thunderbolt for the fox demon Bai Ying in order to help her become an immortal and save the common people. With a cry of "little fox", Wu Chen turned into flying ash.

In the screening room, sobbing sounds were heard one after another. Tang Niannian also had tears in her eyes, but she forced herself to hold them back for fear of getting her mask wet.

At the end of the movie, the fox fairy Bai Ying joins forces with the male and female protagonists to save the world from disaster. The male and female protagonists understand each other and finally become a couple.

Bai Ying heard that Wuchen only needed to reincarnate once more to become a Buddha...

Before the lights in the screening room were turned on, Shi Xi and Tang Niannian left quietly.

They made a reservation at a restaurant near the mall. As they walked over there, Tang Niannian looked at the online reviews: "The movie has a pretty good reputation, and the box office is rising rapidly. Although it is not as good as "Sword Shining in the Frost", it has greatly exceeded our expectations. This movie was just a small-budget movie at the beginning."

"Yes, this movie did its best under limited conditions." Shi Xi was also looking at the audience's comments on him.

[“Sword Shining in the Frost” lived up to its cast. Director Weng Qiwen’s work was truly extraordinary. Ruan Shu also contributed excellent acting skills, but what surprised me was the role of Master Yideng played by Shi Xi! Her acting skills were on par with Ruan Shu’s. From the lines to the fighting scenes, they were all surprising. Although her role was small, she added a lot of color to “Sword Shining in the Frost”! ]

[If I were to describe "The Phantom" in one word, I would choose "highly exciting"! The fighting scenes are exciting, the characters are exciting, and the special effects are beyond expectations! I really like the storyline between the fox demon and the Buddha! ]

[I was attracted by the Buddhist child in "Phantom", Shi Xi's cross-dressing was so amazing, he brought Wu Chen to life. ]

[I have watched both "The Phantom" and "Sword Reflecting Frost". I have to say that Shi Xi's acting is really good. They both play high monks. Master Yideng is cold and compassionate, while Wu Chen is both good and evil. There is no confusion at all. I even realized that they were played by the same person after the movie was over.]

[Shi Xi's personal style is so strong. As an actress, she really has unlimited possibilities! ]

[I was worried that the trailer of "Phantom" was a scam, but I didn't expect the feature film to be even more exciting. It is definitely worth the ticket price. I heard that this is Shi Xi's first big screen debut, and I was really impressed by her fighting scenes. ]

[After watching "Sword Shining in the Frost", I am even more looking forward to Shi Xi and Ruan Shu's collaboration "Muse"! ]

Moviegoers also gave Tang Niannian a very good review. Shi Xi and Tang Niannian once again proved their acting skills with "The Phantom". "The Phantom" will become a common medal in their acting careers.

Shi Xi and Tang Niannian rarely get together, and they play until the evening before parting.

Shi Xi promised his senior brother that he would go back to Wuyou Temple for dinner tonight. Just as he was about to go home to get the car, the phone rang.

I originally thought it was a call from my senior brother or Jiaming, but it turned out to be a call from Hei Wuchang Seventeen.

At this time?

After Shi Xi answered the phone, Hei Wuchang's low voice was heard, and the faint cry of ghosts from another world could be heard.

"Xiao Shi, the activities of vengeful spirits have been unusually frequent recently. We suspect that it is related to Xia Junyan. The purification of the blood jade has hurt his roots. He urgently needs to plunder lives to restore his strength..."

As they were talking, the sky gradually darkened. Shi Xi saw a bus appear at the junction of dusk and night, approaching slowly.

"Route B11..." Shi Xi's eyes widened and his heart skipped a beat. Upon closer inspection, this was clearly Route B44 with a faulty sign!

Shi Xi glanced at the bus stop ahead and suddenly realized that he was on the route of bus B44! This mysterious bus had disappeared for a long time, but it appeared at a non-driving time!

The author has something to say:

There are probably two or three more chapters to go.
