Chapter 120
"Xie Xuanqing." Yuan Xiu smiled and said slowly, "He is the reincarnation of the former Emperor Zhao and the head of the Xie Group in this life. You should know him."
Liao Peiming did know about the existence of Xie Xuanqing, but he did not know that Xie Xuanqing was the reincarnation of Xie Chong.
Upon hearing this news, Liao Peiming frowned slightly: "But, according to the Liao family's ancient books, Emperor Zhao should be the tenth emperor..."
What Xie Chong did back then was extremely crazy, but he also knew that the Xie clan members would definitely have complaints against Rong Jing after knowing the real price he would have to pay, so he simply concealed the matter of the Tenth Generation Emperor's Fate. After he exchanged his fate with the Heavenly Dao, the new fate that was formed would not manifest in this life.
If Yuan Xiu had not accidentally harmed the Heavenly Dao, he would probably not have guessed that Xie Xuanqing was willing to mortgage even the life of the Tenth Generation Emperor.
But the love is really as deep as the sea...regardless of everything.
Yuan Xiu recalled the time when he knew about this, and he couldn't explain how he felt. He just felt that Rong Jing was really lucky, so lucky that he couldn't help but be jealous.
Other Heavenly Masters and even aristocratic families did not know about this matter, and it was never mentioned in the ancient books handed down.
The reason why the country was so wary of Xie Xuanqing and Rong Jing was because they knew that the former Emperor Zhao was the tenth emperor appointed by the Heavenly Dao and certified by countless Heavenly Masters. If he wanted to "return" to his former position, then...
Liao Peiming had been puzzled before. Although the emperors of the last two dynasties all claimed that they were the reincarnations of Xie Chong and were entrusted with the tenth generation of imperial mandate, the Liao family was able to survive in that dynasty that was eradicating metaphysics. Naturally, they had some real abilities to be able to tell that the emperors of those two dynasties were not the reincarnations of Xie Chong.
Such records were also passed down along with ancient books. Until this generation, when the Liao family members looked through the ancient books, they had never seen a person with the destiny of being an emperor for ten generations.
At that time, Liao Peiming subconsciously felt that the Tenth Emperor's Decree might be a huge lie made by the Heavenly Master to flatter Emperor Zhao, or that there were some errors in the Liao family's records.
But at this time Yuan Xiu pointed out this matter very lightly, which unexpectedly confirmed that this matter was indeed true. It was not that the Heavenly Masters of the Dazhao Dynasty lied, nor was it that the Liao family made a mistake in recording.
But... Liao Peiming had also seen the leader of the Xie family who was secretly known as the "Evil God". At that time, he only saw boundless evil spirit in him. His fate was filled with the words "lonely" and "alone", which really made people unable to associate him with the founding emperor of the Zhao Dynasty, Emperor Zhao Xie Chong.
Guessing something vaguely, Liao Peiming asked directly: "What should we do?"
Yuan Xiu closed his eyes slightly, and a slightly bewitching smile appeared on his face, which was 70% similar to Wang Zijun.
"It's very simple..."
Recalling what Yuan Xiu had said about the necessary arrangements, Liao Peiming closed his eyes gently.
Yuan Xiu paused for a moment when he heard his question, then said, "I know."
It was just a mouthful of blood. Yuan Xiu never thought that just letting Rong Jing spit out a mouthful of blood would weaken his strength to a certain extent.
What's worse, he also knew that in his current state he was no match for Rong Jing.
But who says that one can only rely on one's own cultivation in a fight?
He was able to plot against Rong Jing once back then, so why not this time?
He smiled slightly, and a hint of coldness suddenly flashed across Yuan Xiu's pale face: "Are you ready for everything I asked you to arrange?"
Liao Peiming's eyes slowly swept over him, and then he said softly, "Ready."
Rong Jing might not know that they were also on the island, but they were also aware that the special department had other arrangements on the island.
But who knows, while the mantis stalks the cicada, there is an oriole behind it - the oriole may not be the next mantis?
In the villa, Xie Xuanqing was catching fish in the mangroves and was covered in sea water and mud. While the professionals were processing the food, he went upstairs to wash and change his clothes.
There were several other guests who made the same choice as him, including Ji Wan and Su Ping. Although they did not catch fish together, they had gotten a lot of wet mud on their bodies when they were picking clams and digging oysters on the rocky shallows. They also went upstairs at this time.
Geng Ming looked around and stood up as well.
An inconspicuous member of the camera crew saw this, slowly raised his eyes, and then followed silently.
He was holding a portable camera in his hand, and looked like he suddenly remembered something. He stood in the corridor for a while, then knocked on the door of Geng Ming, who was closest to him.
"Teacher Geng, I'm sorry to bother you." The cameraman smiled apologetically. "Just now the director suddenly remembered that he had to shoot some more life-like footage for you guests. Everyone happens to be here now. Can I go in and shoot one for you?"
There was no question of whether or not to do it. The other party was so polite, and it was also a request from the program crew. Geng Ming frowned but still agreed.
He had just finished taking a shower and his body was still wet.
Considering the filming later, Geng Ming casually wiped off the water droplets on his body and put on a home clothes.
"How does the production team want to shoot..."
Before he could finish, the cameraman suddenly stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder: "Wait, Mr. Geng Ming, I suddenly remembered that this segment seems to be recorded from the female guest's side first. I'll come over later."
Geng Ming: “???”
The cameraman quickly turned around and walked out of the room. Geng Ming looked at the door slowly closing and vaguely felt that something was wrong.
The shoulder that had just been filmed by the camera felt slightly cold. Geng Ming raised his hand and touched it upwards. He felt a subtle, paper-like touch on his fingertips.
Was it a prank? Did the staff stick the note on him?
Geng Ming had participated in several variety show recordings before. He knew the routines of general variety shows very well, or at least was very familiar with them. At this moment, he felt a subtle touch from behind his shoulder, his brows twitched slightly, and with a pinch of his fingertips, he was about to pull the note directly off his shoulder.
However, he grabbed the fabric of his home clothes on his shoulders and pulled it hard, and when he opened his hands to look, he saw nothing.
Is it his illusion?
The door was not closed tightly, and there seemed to be a knock on the door from a distance.
Geng Ming always felt that something was wrong. He frowned and was about to go out, but he turned back and quickly changed his clothes before going out.
In such a short time, the cameraman had already reached the third floor.
Ji Wan and Su Ping just happened to get together. When they saw Geng Ming coming out of the room, they also greeted him.
Geng Ming: "Teacher Ji, Teacher Su, did a cameraman just say he wanted to film some more life scenes?"
He was not a person who could hide his emotions. Ji Wan raised her eyes and glanced at his face, then replied: "Is that so? Is there any problem?"
During the contact with the cameraman just now, Ji Wan subconsciously felt that something was wrong, but the feeling was too vague and Ji Wan did not take it too seriously.
However, seeing that Geng Ming seemed to have discovered something, she couldn't help but become nervous.
"I can't say." Unfortunately, Geng Ming didn't find out what was wrong. He just said, "I just felt very strange. He just patted me and I felt like something was wrong. So I touched my back and it felt weird, like a piece of paper was stuck on me..."
He told Su Ping and Ji Wan about the touch he felt at the time and the fruitless result, his tone becoming increasingly low.
Ji Wan finally discovered what was wrong.
"...If they wanted to reshoot some of the daily life scenes, why did they only let him come as a cameraman?"
Moreover, if they were just reshooting some daily life scenes, why was it necessary to shoot the female guests first before shooting the male guests?
Ji Wan and Su Ping blurted out almost instantly: "Before he left, he also patted us!"
Because they are female guests, the entire program crew will be very careful not to do anything inappropriate. Even when he took a picture of them just now, it was because something fell off the camera and he accidentally took the picture when he subconsciously tried to catch it.
Now it seems that it was not accidental, but deliberate!
Ji Wan's beautiful eyes flashed: "He seems to have gone upstairs."
Mu Yunzhou and Zheng Yuexun lived on the third floor, and Rong Jing and Xie Xuanqing were also on the other side of the third floor.
If this camera really has a purpose, it is very likely to continue to target them.
Ji Wan thought about it, and then said to Su Ping: "Su Ping, go downstairs and ask the director if he knows about this. If he doesn't know, call the entire production team to the third floor!"
Su Ping actually didn't quite understand what had happened, but the Metlin Island had just been developed and there were few people living nearby. If something really happened... it would be better to be cautious.
Thinking of this, she nodded to Ji Wan and ran downstairs quickly.
Ji Wan and Geng Ming were left standing there. After looking at each other, they walked towards the third floor tacitly.
Not sure if it was a psychological effect or if the cameraman really did something, Ji Wan just felt that the place that he accidentally photographed before was emitting a bone-chilling chill, and even her lips turned pale.
The entire holiday villa is very large.
Go up the stairs to the third floor and walk through a corridor to see the guests' rooms.
This arrangement was initially intended to protect the privacy of the guests, but now it seems a bit annoying.
Walking over quickly, Ji Wan saw the cameraman who had knocked on their door before with various excuses standing in front of Mu Yunzhou's door with a smile on his face: "Teacher Mu and Mr. Zheng, the program team..."
As he was about to reach out his hand to put it on Mu Yunzhou's shoulder, but the next second, another hand that clearly did not belong to Mu Yunzhou reached out from behind him and slapped his arm away.
"You said that you were sent by the program crew to film daily life clips, then why are you the only one here?" Zheng Yuexun's voice suddenly sounded, and the cameraman's expression paused slightly.
"I..." Zheng Yuexun and Mu Yunzhou frowned slightly, waiting for his explanation.
However, the next second, the cameraman's expression suddenly became stern. He slapped them with both hands, and then he even threw away the camera and ran in the opposite direction of Ji Wan and the others.
Just as he was about to open the elevator door and leave, a pair of strong hands suddenly grabbed his collar, lifted him up roughly and threw him to the ground.
Ben's skills were summed up from thousands of fights, and he used his strength very skillfully. The camera was slammed to the ground by him, and his head hit the marble floor, causing him to feel dizzy.
"Wow~" Ben said briskly, spinning a knife in his hand, "No wonder Xie asked me to pay more attention to the people in the production team. It turns out that someone was pretending to be a rabbit~"
The cameraman came back to his senses a little, looked up and glared at Ben: "Who are you?!"
Ben: "Me? I'm just a bodyguard..."
When he seemed to relax for a moment, the camera suddenly jumped up, holding something in his hand, and started filming Ben.
Ji Wan and Geng Ming, the two people he had successfully photographed before, quickly shouted, "Be careful!"
As soon as the words fell.
No one knew how Ben controlled his muscles, but he twisted his body to the side in a very twisted manner and avoided the attack from the cameraman, with his hands still firmly clamping the other person's shoulders.
Ben's expression became noticeably serious. The other person's strength was too great, so great that he didn't even look like a human being.
etc.
Ben suddenly remembered something and kicked the cameraman's knee. While the other party had no strength to fight back, he quickly took out a yellow talisman from his pocket and slapped it on the cameraman's head.
The other party finally quieted down.
"So this is the meaning of the talisman papers that Rong gave me..." Ben muttered, then stood up and looked at Zheng Yuexun, Ji Wan and others who had arrived not far away.
There were more than a dozen talismans in his pocket. Although Ben was a little unhappy that Xie Xuanqing and the others had hidden something from him before they left, he was still somewhat excited to be in touch with China's affairs in person.
Naturally, he also wore some things to ward off demonic forces, but those things from abroad seemed completely different from those in Eastern China.
Ben handed the talismans in his hand directly to Zheng Yuexun and the others, and then looked at the director and Su Ping and others who had just come out of the elevator not far away.
"Really..." Ben was a little impatient.
However, Rong Jing had obviously foreseen such a scene when he handed the talismans to him. Thinking of the ability that the other party had inadvertently displayed, Ben finally waited for a while in the same place, and then distributed the talismans in his hand one by one to the staff and Su Ping who came up.
The director was obviously a little confused, but looking at Ben, who was obviously a foreigner and had been following Xie Xuanqing, and then looking at the talisman in his hand with extremely obvious Chinese characteristics, he couldn't help but ask: "This is..." What's going on?
The cameraman was still lying on the ground, and the director's eyes slid downward, his meaning was very clear.
Ben: “I don’t know.”
As he spoke, he lightly kicked the camera that was motionless on the ground and said, "But there is a high possibility that there is something wrong with him. No, there is something wrong with this island."
Although Ben is usually playful, when it comes to serious matters, he is very serious and trustworthy.
When the director heard what he said, he couldn't help swallowing his saliva: "Ah..."
They had reported to the authorities when they came, but now something unexpected happened and the director was in a dilemma as they didn't know what happened.
The filming is only halfway done and there is only half an hour left for the live broadcast. If it is suddenly cancelled, wouldn’t it be even more controversial?
But if we continue filming...
Director: "Is the villa safe?"
Ben frowned, "Maybe."
director:"……"
In the end, he turned back with a sad face. However, when he caught a glimpse of the cameraman lying on the ground, he couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong with him?"
Ben: “I don’t know.”
I don't know why.
The director muttered to himself, and finally realized what was missing: "Where are Rong Yu and Mr. Rong and Mr. Xie?"
——The guest is missing, so this is not a question of whether the variety show can continue to be filmed, but whether their production crew will be directly pulled in by the police to assist in the investigation!
When they came over, the doors of the guests' rooms were all open. Not to mention how loud the noise was when Ben caught the cameraman, and how conspicuous the presence of the program crew was. But no one came out. Where did they go?
The director became visibly anxious.
The director clenched his hands nervously, feeling the touch of the talisman in his hands, and belatedly remembered Rong Jing's identity.
The emergence of this.
The cameraman whose whereabouts were described by the guests as mysterious.
And the talismans they hold in their hands.
Of course, there is also the most obvious one, the talisman paper that was photographed on the forehead of the cameraman piled on the ground...
Everything seems to hint at something.
The storm is coming.
Behind the villa is a very beautiful beach garden.
Gorgeous tropical flowers and trees were blooming wantonly. Rong Yu stood under a flower tree with her eyes lowered, and then she chuckled softly.
"Lie to me, everyone lied to me..." Rong Yu murmured in a low voice.
He could feel the peach blossom evil spirit in his body rapidly expanding. He was like a balloon that had been stretched to its limit, and the endless evil spirit was still growing.
He will die soon.
Rong Yu realized this very clearly.
He had finally reached this point today. In order to have more of what he wanted, he gave up his dignity, his conscience, and even his identity as "Rong Yu".
He knew that his fate was changed by Liao Peiming using another person's fate, but he didn't care because he was the one who benefited from it.
He watched helplessly as the young man became Liao Peiming's abandoned pawn, but he thought he was useful enough to Liao Peiming, so he watched coldly.
However, he eventually became an abandoned pawn.
If he must die...
Rong Yu suddenly remembered her original intention of working for Liao Peiming.
The Rong family is a very large family, and their family is just a small family in the local area.
But because Rong Jing's father made a small fortune back then, and Rong Jing was a caring brother, Rong Yu's father also took advantage of it and made a fortune.
His father told me that at that time, his family was a well-known wealthy family in the entire Rong family and even in the local area.
Unfortunately...
"When your cousin was born, the fortune teller said he had a bad fate, but your aunt didn't believe it. As a result, the business your uncle was negotiating at the time fell through, and those debt collectors came to the door one by one following the smell..." Rong's uncle shook his head and told his young son about his brother, puffing on a water pipe.
The younger uncle of the Rong family felt indifferent about the death of his mother. What made him even more upset was that the eldest uncle of the Rong family's business went bankrupt and he was unable to support him, which caused their family's financial conditions to decline again.
Thinking of this, the young uncle of the Rong family tapped his pipe and said directly to his son: "If it weren't for your cousin, our family would not be in this situation today. Alas, it's a pity that we got rid of your cousin a little too slowly. It's also your aunt's fault that she couldn't bear to let him go... Alas, he was born to bring bad luck to our Rong family!"
The young Rong Yu smelled the smoke coming out of his father's mouth and kept his words firmly in his heart.
When he grew up a little more, he finally realized how much impact the collapse of his uncle's business had on his own family.
All of his classmates had the latest cell phones in their hands and wore the latest sneakers, except him, who had to afford second-rate things because of his average family income.
He envied and was jealous of everything his peers had, so he hated his cousin who was from the Rong family.
By chance, he saw a photo of his cousin that his aunt still kept. At that time, Rong Jing happened to be playing the role in "Record of Heavenly Master" and was very popular.
When Rong Yu saw Rong Jing appear on the screen, he had an inexplicable guess in his mind: this young man who looked extremely noble and dignified, like a young master from a wealthy family, was his cousin!
Why? Why can he only stay in this small place and live a humble and disgusting life day after day, while Rong Jing can live so glamorously on the screen?
By the way, Rong Jing, he actually changed his name to the same name as that Rong Guoshi...
No one questioned him, everyone respected him, and even the head of the Xie family of the Xie Group was very close to him.
Everything Rong Yu had ever imagined and wanted to possess appeared before his eyes, but the person who possessed all these was his cousin whom he hated.
He was so crazy that he wanted to take these things away that he changed his surname to "Rong". When Liao Peiming came to him, he agreed to his request without hesitation.
Over the past twenty years, Rong Yu had realized that something seemed to be wrong with him.
He could easily approach any man or any woman, and after a little courtesy, he could see their eyes intoxicated by him.
But this kind of intoxication is full of danger. They seem to be obsessed with something in him. Once Rong Yu wants to get away, they will try every means to keep him.
And as they tried to keep her, Rong Yu's characteristics became more and more obvious.
It was not until he met Liao Peiming that Rong Yu realized that he was doomed to have a romantic relationship with someone. The things that attracted men and women to him were just the romantic evil spirit formed in him.
Like smoke and fog, the more peach blossom debts he incurs, the stronger the peach blossom evil energy will be on his body, until finally, when his fate can no longer bear it, he will be annihilated from the world along with all the peach blossom evil energy.
"The peach blossom evil energy in you has accumulated to the point of being on the verge of exploding."
When they first met, Liao Peiming looked very kind. He pointed out Rong Yu's problems in a gentle and gentle manner, and then used a talisman to let Rong Yu see with his own eyes the strong peach blossom evil spirit emanating from his body.
"I can help you suppress these evil spirits," Liao Peiming said slowly, "but you have to do something for me."
…
Rong Yu no longer remembered how he answered at that time, but he must have agreed. So he changed his fate and got the opportunity to enter the entertainment industry.
So he suppressed the peach blossom evil spirit in his body, but he was able to rely on the influence of this evil spirit on ordinary men and women to get to the people that Liao Peiming said he needed to get close to.
Life in these two months... He got the notice and received a lot of money.
With an agent's assistant serving him, he packaged himself into the person he wanted.
So he was unwilling to die like this.
At the very least, at least let some people go with him, right?
Rong Yu laughed and then stopped laughing.
He reached out and plucked a blooming plum blossom from the tree and held it in his hand. Then he lowered his eyes, pretending nothing had happened, and slowly walked towards the villa.
"Tada." Two different footsteps were heard softly.
Rong Yu raised her eyes and saw Rong Jing's extremely unsightly long silver-white hair.
"Teacher Rong." Rong Yu called out.
Then he thought of Rong Jing's identity. Although he had always been skeptical about Rong Jing being a heavenly master, since Liao Peiming threw him aside, he must have other purposes.
Recalling what he had vaguely guessed before, Rong Yu could easily think that Liao Peiming's real purpose was Rong Jing.
So Rong Jing is indeed the Heavenly Master.
Then he should have also realized that the evil spirit in him was about to explode.
"Or rather--" Thinking of this, Rong Yu curled his lips and suddenly said, "Should I call you, cousin?"
