Gu Wang asked the director, "What's with the rash on your body? When did it start?"
"Hey, mosquito bites, right?" Director Yu said nonchalantly. "There are a lot of insects in the mountains. Every time I film in the mountains, I get bitten all over. I'm used to it."
Seeing that the assistant director was hesitant to speak, Gu Wang asked him, "Do you think so too?"
The assistant director said sheepishly, "We all think the water here is bad."
He explained: "After the crew settled here, they carried water from the mountain to drink, but they were not so particular about the water they used. They collected water from a nearby river."
"Every time we washed with that water, we felt uncomfortable and itchy, and many of us broke out in rashes. Now we dare not use that water anymore."
"There's such a thing?" Director Yu was surprised. "Why didn't anyone tell me?"
The assistant director laughed dryly. Who would dare to use such unclean water for the director?
Director Yu frowned again. "Could it be that the male and female leads have also developed a rash? No wonder they didn't dare tell me..."
A rash can be a big deal or a small one. Actors are in a unique profession. If a rash appears on the face and leaves a scar, it can ruin your entire career. No wonder they keep it a secret.
Gu Wang asked the assistant director about the location of the river.
Late at night, when everyone in the crew had gone to bed, he put up a few talismans to protect the entire crew's base, and then brought Fusangshen and the red zombie who was so bored that he was catching crickets in the woods to the river.
It is a river with abundant water resources and clear water. If the crew hadn't said that drinking this water would cause rashes, anyone who saw it would think it was sweet mountain spring water and it was safe to drink directly.
The moon was at its highest point, Gu Wang hid himself and waited by the river for a while.
Suddenly, a puff of green smoke emerged from the middle of the river, and a whirlpool appeared under the water. In the center of the whirlpool, a small turtle covered in blood red spun out.
The little turtle swung its limbs and paddled ashore. It opened its mouth and a bright green bead fell out.
The bead cracked when it hit the ground, and a thick green smoke gushed out and spread with the mountain wind.
Gu Wang felt the turbid and diseased air contained in the green smoke, frowned, and cast a Qingfeng Talisman.
The talisman paper rolled up a wisp of spiritual wind, which gathered the thick smoke and dissipated it.
The blood-red turtle was stunned for a moment, as if it didn't know what was going on. It opened its mouth and tried to spit out another green bead, but after trying for a long time, it failed. It had no choice but to retreat back to the river in dejection.
Gu Wang couldn't let it run away, so he signaled to the red zombie: Hold it down!
The red zombie howled excitedly twice, pounded its chest, jumped out, and stomped the blood-red turtle into the ground with one foot.
Gu Wang's brows, which had just relaxed, furrowed again. So who on earth taught him this? It's been said that zombies and gorillas are not the same thing!
Gu Wang brought Fu Sangshen forward and saw the blood-red turtle flapping its limbs and struggling in vain under the red zombie's feet.
Fusangshen hesitated and said, "It seems... just an ordinary turtle?"
Gu Wang looked closely at the turtle. It was completely blood red, even its eyes were red. Furthermore, the turtle seemed to be infected with disease, which might be why its color had changed.
But apart from that, it is no different from an ordinary turtle. Not to mention becoming a spirit, it doesn't even have any intelligence.
Gu Wang asked Fu Sangshen, "You've been in the mountains for so long, have you ever seen this turtle?"
Fusangshen said helplessly, "Although I have practiced for a long time, I spent most of it in the homes of people living at the foot of the mountain. Later, I was abandoned by my master and lost most of my cultivation. I can't even transform. However," he hesitated, "I have heard the legend of this river."
"You mean the river ahead?" Gu Wang suddenly realized, "Oh, right, the crew got sick after using the river water. Are the local villagers okay?"
Fusangshen said, "In fact, the locals never use the water from this river. According to ancient legend, there is an evil god with a bad temper in this river. If he disobeys the river, he will release plague and death to punish the mountain people. Therefore, they will not come near this place unless necessary."
Gu Wang felt that this legend was reliable. "Does the legend mention where this evil god lives?"
"Legend has it that this evil god died," Tsukumogami recounted the story with a serious expression. "It's said that the evil god fought a battle with the local guardian deity and was killed in the river by the local guardian deity. After his death, the river water was filled with his resentment and was no longer suitable for use."
Gu Wang felt that this legend was not that reliable.
Let’s not talk about whether there is a guardian angel or not. Just look at the people in the crew. It is obvious that they got sick because they were contaminated by disease and foul air, not because of resentment.
Gu Wang guessed that this was probably the work of some demon or minor deity in charge of something like plague. He just didn't know what they were asking for, why they went to so much trouble only to cause a few rashes.
The most critical issue now is to find where the so-called evil god is.
The red zombie suddenly said, "It seems, very anxious."
Gu Wang looked down and saw that the blood-red turtle under his feet was struggling even harder than before, and it felt like its body was about to fall out of its shell.
Gu Wang looked up at the sky and found that the darkest time was about to pass.
He thought for a moment and said, "Let it go. Let's follow it and see."
As soon as the red zombie moved its feet, the turtle dove into the water and swam upstream. It had no intelligence and didn't realize it was being followed.
Gu Wang naturally wouldn't follow it into the water, but fortunately the river water was clear, and it was blood-red and conspicuous, so it wasn't difficult to follow it on the shore.
I followed it all the way to the source of the water, where a clear spring flowed endlessly. The surrounding vegetation was lush, and even the floating green turbid air could not cause any harm to them.
The blood-red turtle dived into the small hole next to the spring.
Gu Wang also stopped. There was a gall tree growing at the entrance of the cave. It was unknown how long it had been alive. It was as thick as a person. Galls that looked like tumors and blisters were densely packed on the bark. It seemed as if one could see the insects moving inside.
From the hole under the tree, a strange laugh rang out. "Let me see how many deaths you've brought... What? None? Useless fellow... Wait! It smells like a living person! Not good!"
The gall tree began to shake violently, and the galls on the bark fell off one by one. Black pus flowed out of the lumps, and the worms inside swarmed out and soon crawled all over the ground.
It's the nightmare of any trypophobic or insectophobic person.
Gu Wang pinched his fingers and wrote a talisman in the air, "The net of heaven is not loose, and the net of earth is not... huh?"
Just when the Sky Net Talisman was about to take shape, the thing in the cave sensed the opportunity, crawled out and fled in the form of a dark green shadow.
Gu Wang said coldly: "Chase!"
The red zombie was like a dog seeing a frisbee, it let out a howl and chased after it.
Fusangshen was also anxious to show off, and turned into a big broom and flew out.
Gu Wang finished drawing the Sky Net Talisman at the same pace as before. The big golden net came down and gathered all the insects together. They turned into black smoke and disappeared.
These bugs carry disease and cannot be released.
Over there, a zombie and a broom were fighting fiercely.
Gu Wang looked over in the direction of the sound and saw the red zombie punch the green thing away. The big broom flew up and slapped it to the ground like a fly.
Gu Wang was stunned, feeling that this thing was... unexpectedly, weak?
The green light was knocked to the ground and turned into a three-foot-tall old man in a green cloth shirt, a green scarf on his head, and two eyes the size of beans, looking very weird.
The old man screamed, holding his waist as he stood up. He was about to turn into a green light and escape, but a red zombie fell from the sky and stepped on his head.
The old man's face was stepped into the ground, and his thick limbs were struggling desperately outside, just like the blood-red turtle he raised.
Gu Wang walked over and observed it carefully for a moment, feeling rather uncertain, "Pox Monster?"
The smallpox demon, also known as the smallpox god, is a kind of plague god that can cause people to get chickenpox.
As we all know, the Plague God has always been the representative of evil gods. Although this kind of ghosts and gods never do good things, no one denies their power.
In ancient times, every time the plague god appeared, it would bring many deaths. Why is this one so weak?
Gu Wang tied up the old man with a golden net and asked, "Are the recent illness and foul air caused by you?"
The pox demon snorted twice and didn't want to talk.
Gu Wang snapped his fingers, and a flash of lightning flashed across the golden net. The pox demon howled in pain, its eyes filled with fear. In this Dharma-Ending Age, this young man could actually master the art of lightning?!
He didn't dare to resist any longer and said honestly, "I did it. I woke up about two months ago and have been spreading disease and plague ever since."
Gu Wang: "Why only spread minor illnesses?"
He had asked carefully before, and found out that the most serious symptom in the crew was rash, and there was not even anyone with fever or diarrhea. This was also something he found quite strange.
I don’t know if it was an illusion, but as soon as I asked this question, the acne monster’s face twitched twice.
He gritted his teeth and said, "Only spreading minor diseases? I wanted to spread serious diseases to make them die quickly, but these damn humans, they actually got vaccinated! Damn it, the chickenpox disease I spread only gave them a few pimples!"
The God of Plague is in charge of plagues and is very sensitive to these things. His first reaction when he woke up was to look at the current medical level of the human race.
When he saw that the human race was actually able to vaccinate, the entire demon was stunned! You have absolutely no moral principles! The two sides haven't even come into direct contact, and you've already put on eight layers of protective armor! How can he deal with this!
Sure enough, he continued to blow sick energy at the crew for two months, and finally, half of them broke out in rashes... and he, from six feet tall when he first woke up, had shrunk to three feet! He had blew away all the sick energy he'd accumulated for centuries!
You have to know that the more people their plague god kills, the stronger his power becomes. He blew so much disease air, but didn't kill anyone. He was simply making a losing deal...
Gu Wang sneered, "Why, you feel wronged because you didn't kill anyone?"
The pox monster was aggrieved, "No..."
Gu Wang was too lazy to say more to him. He tightened the silk thread in his hand and took him away.
This is the first evil god that Director Gu has caught.
The previous ones hadn't hurt anyone, but the pox monster was a different story. If he ever realized what was happening and went after those unvaccinated newborns, it would be bad news.
So, we have to take it back. As for how to place it after taking it back, we will talk about it later.
He put the smallpox demon into the soul-calming bottle and added many restrictions on it.
Seeing this, Fu Sangshen began to feel pain all over his body, and he couldn't help but feel lucky that he had surrendered voluntarily.
After returning to the crew, it was still dark. Gu Wang put away the talismans he had pasted and went back to take a nap.
When I woke up the next day, I heard the crew members say it was strange that the rash on my body had healed even though I was about to leave. Could it be that they had gotten used to it?
Only Director Yu looked at him with a strange look.
Seeing him looking over, Director Yu came over slowly and asked him in a low voice, like an underground party member, "Director Gu, tell me honestly, did you do something?"
Gu Wang was puzzled: "What did you do?"
Director Yu is worthy of being a director, his imagination is so rich. "Everyone's rash healed as soon as you came. And that broom, you put a talisman on it and it stopped moving... Honestly, you are that kind of expert, right?"
Gu Wang: "What kind of expert? I'm just the director of an amusement park! Are you still going to shoot the group scenes? The zombie extras you asked for are almost here."
Director Yu's attention was immediately diverted. "What? You're here so soon? Hurry up, hurry up, stagehands, get ready, set up the scenery and props..."
Seeing him running away, Gu Wang breathed a sigh of relief and said secretly: It’s better to have less contact with people in the entertainment industry in the future. These people are too cunning and you never know when they will be exposed.
It only took Gu Wang a word to ask for extra zombies. In just one morning, he finished shooting the scene that Director Yu had been stuck on for a week. The effect was perfect, so beautiful that Director Yu was so excited that he wanted to get the contact information of the extras.
Gu Wangxin said, there is no contact information, but you can ask Hong Jiang to mark you and listen to the sound of water every day.
Director Yu had originally wanted to wait until the lead actors arrived before filming, but after learning they were ill, he gave up, as the editing process would be the same anyway. So, after filming this scene, the crew wrapped up.
It was dusk when Gu Wang left the crew.
The setting sun hangs halfway up the mountain. At the foot of the mountain, golden rays of light sprinkle on the fields with crisscrossing paths. Several mountain people are working, and wisps of smoke are rising from the roofs of the village.
At the moment when the sun and the moon met, an old lady wearing a small blue cloth jacket and carrying a large bag suddenly appeared in the field. She paced around the field with a kind smile, and made a gesture of sowing seeds from time to time.
Gu Wang was rarely stunned for a moment, "This is..."
With his keen eyesight, he could tell that this was just an illusion, or rather, an obsession.
This is an obsession left behind by a fallen god.
He looked at Fusangshen inquiringly.
Before Fusangshen could say anything, the laughter of the pox demon echoed from the soul-calming bottle: "Hehehe, this is Qingmiao God. I didn't expect that this old guy would die before I died, hehehe... Back then, she sealed me away for two hundred years. Maybe she thought this day would come? Ah!"
Gu Wang calmly added three more layers of restrictions on the soul-calming bottle until no sound could be heard from inside.
Then he looked at the Qingmiao God again.
The Qingmiao God doesn't look like a god. She is more like the old ladies that can be seen everywhere in the countryside, the kind who secretly give candies to their grandchildren.
A few little monkeys played in the wild for a whole day, rolled in the mud, and chased each other as they hurried home to eat.
The youngest one fell down on the edge of the field and his palm was pricked by the grass. He was about to cry with a pouty mouth.
The Qingmiao God cried out in pain twice, and her divine power gently brushed across the child's palm. The bleeding wound disappeared instantly, and her figure became even fainter.
The child's mouth was half cracked, and he found that his hand didn't hurt anymore. He didn't understand what happened, so he got up and ran after his brothers and sisters.
Gu Wang didn't know why the Qingmiao God had fallen, nor did he know why she hadn't entered the seal of the Three No Return Land before the end of the Dharma era.
She is different from the plague god like the pox demon. She is a real guardian god and can naturally enter the seal.
But if I had to find a reason, it would probably be that the Green Miao Goddess couldn't let go of this land and its people. She had protected this place for hundreds and thousands of years, and even in her death, she couldn't let go.
Gu Wang formed seals with his hands and offered a stick of incense to the fallen gods.
Then he seemed to remember something and looked at Fusangshen: "Your information is a bit insufficient."
Look at the smallpox demon who developed on the same land. He was imprisoned for hundreds of years and knew everything, but this guy knew nothing.
Fusangshen sweatdropped, "I'm sorry, I don't like to see people by nature, and I didn't like going out before, so I don't know much about what's going on outside. But don't worry, I can clean quickly and cleanly!"
Gu Wang seemed to be thinking about something, "You, don't like to see people?"
Fusangshen nodded sheepishly, then hurriedly said upon seeing Hongjiang, "Of course, I know you must have other ghost servants in your home. I'm mentally prepared. As long as I don't see outsiders, it's fine. I mean, occasionally seeing them is fine, as long as it's not too often."
Gu Wang: "Hmm..."
Ten hours later, Gu Wang brought them back to the amusement park and asked Fu Sangshen, "This level should be okay, right?"
Looking at the hundreds of people queuing outside, "..."
All the ghosts and gods were very interested in the smallpox monster that Gu Wang brought back this time.
It wasn't for any other reason, but everyone could see that Gu Wang was very dissatisfied with this smallpox monster, and they all offered suggestions.
Zi Gu Shen: "Put him in the toilet and let him be a toilet ghost. He can't cause any big trouble with me around."
Candle Girl: "How about I burn him to death?"
Chi Jing: "Will Hong Jiang be willing to acknowledge him as his mother?"
Ghost Goddess: "..."
Gu Wang quickly reached out to stop him, "Wait, stuffing it into your stomach is too much! Not even into your belly button!"
The pox demon lay on the ground, trembling and wanting to cry. He had not expected that a mere little Taoist priest could not only master the lightning spell, but also subdue so many ghosts and gods!
Not to mention now, even before the Dharma Ending Age, no Taoist priest could subdue these ghosts and gods!
Look who these are!
The Candle Lady, who can control candlelight, is one of the most influential ghosts and gods in ancient times! Add to that the Lantern Shadow Granny. If this had happened a few hundred years ago, even the Night Wanderer wouldn't want to mess with these two!
Ghost Goddess, this is the Ghost Mother of Xiaoyu Mountain! A ghost god with the power of reproduction and creation!
Zigu God, the god who controls the reincarnation of the five grains in the human world, will basically not perish as long as the human race survives...
There is also Chi Jing, the most talented member of the Tushan Fox Clan in the past thousand years. He walks in the human world with 800 years of cultivation, which is higher than the cultivation level of several old foxes who have been in the Fox Clan for thousands of years.
Not to mention the red zombie that beat him up, and...
The pox demon didn't even dare to look over there. He could only feel the breath of the red lotus fire coming from over there. He couldn't breathe. This, this, this... there was actually a visitor from the underworld here!
Even though he is very weak now, he has existed for thousands of years. As far as he can remember, even in the underworld, the only one who can control the red lotus fire is... He simply didn't dare to think about it anymore.
So who is this little Taoist priest? Is he the son of Heaven? How can he support so many powerful figures? And it's obvious that this little Taoist priest is the most dominant figure in this group. It's incredible.
What’s even more outrageous is how he ended up in the hands of such a ruthless person.
The pox demon covered his mouth, trying hard not to cry out.
The ghost lady on the other side said angrily, "This won't work, and that won't work. Just let me eat it! Crunch!"
Gu Wangxin said, "What nonsense are you talking about? What if you give birth to a ghost after eating it and it is also poisonous?"
The pox demon couldn't stand the threat and started sobbing, "Don't, don't eat me, I'm very useful, I can... I can cure diseases..."
Gu Wang raised an eyebrow and turned to look at him, "Treatment?"
The pox demon nodded delicately and helplessly, "Yes, it can be cured, but it can only cure one type..."
Gu Wang smiled. It would be fine if he could cure one of them. You know, their amusement park doesn’t keep idle people.
Gu Wang asked him, "What disease can it cure?"
The pox monster found a tourist to demonstrate it to him.
After a moment, Gu Wang asked: "Is acne also considered a disease?!"
Three days later, a beauty salon quietly opened in the amusement park.
When the beauty salon first opened, players thought it was a horror game, similar to some mental hospital, full of monsters holding huge syringes.
After entering, I found out that this was actually a beauty salon that did skin care, and the certificates were quite complete.
Not to mention new players, even veteran players find it unreliable! Isn't this a joke? Who would come to the amusement park for beauty treatments?
Moreover, the doctor in this beauty salon is a little old man dressed in green. He seems to be sick and speaks strangely, whimpering all the time. Who would dare to entrust their face to him?
So, after several days of opening, the beauty salon still had zero customers. Some people came in to watch the fun, but no one was actually doing any work.
Gu Wang was not in a hurry about this. After all, the smallpox monster had his restrictions on it and could not do anything evil.
Time passed quickly and it was May. As the weather was getting hotter, everyone wanted to go out and play, and the number of visitors to the amusement park increased again.
However, one night, Gu Wang suddenly received a call from the director of the welfare home where the bone child had been. "Master Gu, Pei Zirui has suddenly fallen into a coma. We have visited several hospitals, but they can't find the cause. Please save him!"
After Gu Wang hung up the phone, he rushed to the welfare home. Pei Zirui was lying on the bed with his eyes closed. He was much thinner than when he had seen him before. He was so small that he was buried in the quilt, looking very pitiful.
Gu Wang only took one look and his expression turned cold. Another soul of this child had been taken away!
The author has something to say:
I wish all the students taking the college entrance examination to achieve their ideal results!
Thank you very much for your support. I will continue to work hard!
