Chapter 109
The group sneaked to the easternmost patio. At this moment, the village had fallen into chaos again. They had discovered the people who had escaped. Some people were searching for the professor from house to house, and some were sent by the village chief to check whether the cemetery in the back mountain was intact.
"Let's quickly destroy the formation here before they discover it!"
As he spoke, a thin layer of sweat appeared on Shen Haoran's head.
Following his gaze, he saw many white figures vaguely standing in the forest. Riding on a large white horse in the front was a male ghost in a white groom's suit. Behind him was a white sedan chair. Various little ghosts in white clothes and mountain goblins were imitating humans in playing musical instruments and singing.
The ghost groom looked at Shen Haoran with forbearance and anger in his eyes.
Shen Haoran also recognized the other person, Xiao Cui's real husband.
On Xiao Cui's death anniversary, the villagers forcefully arranged for a husband to suppress the evil spirit for Xiao Cui. The ghost groom would bring his men all over the mountain and wait outside Wujia Village, ready to snatch the bride away, but each time he was blocked by a large formation and could hardly enter.
【Ah, this is inexplicably funny. 】
[The legendary love rivals become extremely jealous when they meet? ]
[Haoran: Such a huge pressure!]
Just when a group of villagers were about to patrol nearby, the old beggar jumped out from nowhere, poured a bucket of feces on the villagers, and then ran away laughing.
Hearing the first wave of patrolmen running away after the old beggar, Shen Haoran and Professor Gao breathed a sigh of relief and quickened their movements again. Regardless of whether the sloppy beggar did it intentionally or unintentionally, he at least helped distract their attention.
Just to destroy the array's core buried underground will require a lot of time and manpower.
Especially...
"Haoran, can you still hold on?"
Shen Haoran's hand was cut and blood slowly seeped into the soil.
The old Taoist priest at that time assisted the tyrant and used human lives as sacrifices to suppress Xiao Cui. It was obvious that he was not a good person. The formation he set up was also evil.
It is said that the blood of a young boy can drive away evil spirits.
In addition, Shen Haoran has a special physique.
It can also play a similar role.
This was evidenced by the weakening barrier that had become visible to the naked eye.
Because the barrier appeared, their position was also exposed.
The village chief in the center of Wujia Village ordered all the villagers to divide into four groups and head towards the four centers of the barrier array.
The old village chief said in a venomous voice: "Find the one who destroyed the array's core! Kill him!"
The old village chief himself brought a team of people and headed towards the east.
Listening to the noisy voices getting closer, everyone's face was filled with anxiety and panic.
If the center of the formation had not been destroyed before the old village chief arrived, their fate would be self-evident.
“There they are!”
"There's a road to heaven but you don't take it, there's no door to hell but you come anyway!"
"Ah, the groom ran out too!"
"Go ahead, kill them first, then start the ritual again!"
"Die, all of you must die!"
"Leave one alive, so we don't have to use our own family!"
The villagers rushed down with their carrying poles, their eyes filled with red bloodshot. They were all living people, but their expressions were more terrifying than ghosts.
At the critical moment, there was a loud bang and a shock wave. As the male protagonist and his group breathed a sigh of relief and the people of Wujia Village looked on in horror, the enveloping barrier shattered.
The old village chief's eyes narrowed into needle points, and he was the first to turn around and run.
The ghost bridegroom, who had been waiting for who knows how many years, kicked his horse's belly and rushed into the barrier that had not yet completely dissipated.
In the forest, little ghosts in white also followed in, and the sounds of playing music and singing were heard again in Wujia Village late at night.
On the other side, a red light also burst out from the old house where Xiao Cui was suppressed, illuminating half of the sky red. The ominous red seemed to be the saddest color between heaven and earth. A red sedan chair was suspended in the air, the curtain was opened, and a female ghost with a blood-stained veil flew into it.
From a bottom-up perspective, you can see the ghost bride Xiao Cui's current appearance through the gap in the red veil.
She had an goose-like face, peach lips, willow eyebrows and phoenix eyes. She sat upright in the sedan chair. If it weren't for her extremely pale face, overly red lips and sharp black nails, she would have been considered a standard classical beauty.
[Look carefully, even in her ghost bride form, Xiao Cui is still beautiful.]
[It's just that there's a sense of horror in the beauty, and an inexplicable beauty in the horror.]
Eight paper figures dressed in red followed closely behind, lifting the sedan chair.
The ghost groom in a white straw raincoat pulled the reins tight and stood at the front of the team, looking at the red wedding team on the opposite side from a distance.
The white mourning flags swayed in the wind, making a rustling sound, like a weeping ghost, desolate and lonely.
The next moment, the static picture started moving again.
The solemn and heavy funeral procession continued to move forward, with white mourning clothes, paper funeral objects and a cheerfulness and joy that was incompatible with the entire procession. The white lanterns swayed gently in the wind, casting mottled light and shadows.
The red wedding procession also moved, however, the paper people played mournful and melodious music. In the eerie atmosphere, each paper person had a smiling face raised high on his face, and they moved forward happily.
The red silk was hung high and the colorful lights were flashing, forming a sharp contrast with the funeral procession opposite.
The red team, which should have been celebrating, played a silent melody, ringing the death knell for the real villains.
The funeral procession was full of joy. After a hundred years of waiting, the lovers finally got married.
Eeeeheeah, laughing and groaning.
Accompanied by the extremely weird music, mainly composed of suona, the two teams got closer and closer and crashed into each other's teams.
Red and white, joy and sorrow, collide violently at this moment, as if even time has frozen.
The villagers who had returned to their own courtyards had their doors and windows closed, and were shivering in the narrow cracks.
The villagers who had not yet had time to run back home were so frightened that their knees went weak and they knelt on the ground, not daring to move forward.
Just then, a gust of wind blew, rolling up the fallen leaves and paper money on the ground, making them swirl and intertwine in the air.
Paper money fluttered down from the sky, the curtain was opened again, and the groom in white rushed to the sedan chair, picked up the dignified ghost bride, and placed her on the horse in front of him, snatching the bride away!
The sound of suona became louder again, and hundreds of ghosts wandered throughout the Wujia Village at night. On the wedding hall, one hundred and two figures in red were happily married, paying homage to their parents and to heaven and earth.
Sitting in the hall, tears of blood slowly flowed from the eyes of an old man with silver hair, but the curve of his lips was even warmer and kinder than before.
The wedding character on the wall behind her was half scarlet and half pale.
The red and white candles illuminated the entire wedding hall.
Outside the wedding hall, revenge is taken and grievances are repaid.
Kill those who have lost all conscience!
Those who aid and abet the evil will be killed!
Those who disregard the law will be killed!
In a village teeming with ghosts, a slovenly beggar with a purple face clapped his hands joyfully. Suddenly, he saw a suona that someone had dropped on the ground. He happily picked it up, put it to his lips, inhaled and exhaled, and blew it.
A fox wearing a red robe and beating a gong nearby turned its head and looked over. Its vertical pupils showed savagery and cruelty that had not yet faded. The sloppy beggar laughed. The fox's big face suddenly moved closer and took a closer look at the sloppy beggar's face. The next moment, the evil in its eyes faded like a tide, revealing the pure kindness and innocence of the little animal again.
As they approached while beating the gong, the man and the fox actually matched their music, twisting their bodies and dancing as they played. The excitement here attracted the attention of more spirits.
The sloppy beggar felt like a fish in water among the monsters. A fox dressed in human clothes took out a roast chicken from somewhere and gave half of it to the sloppy beggar. The man and the fox ate with silly grins on their faces, their mouths full of oil.
There is another shot in the picture.
The young boy secretly released the cute little fox that his father had caught and was about to skin and pull out his tendons.
Time flies. The boy grew up to be the only college student in the village. Despite his parents' opposition, he left the mountains.
In his eyes, his parents are ordinary mountain people, who may not have much culture, but are kind and simple.
It was not until the holidays that he returned to his hometown to visit his parents, bringing with him the gifts he had bought with his part-time work and study money.
It happened to be the first family memorial service held in 20 years.
Only then did he realize that his parents were actually demons in human skin.
They captured a barefoot doctor who was collecting herbs in the mountains.
They wanted to arrange a ghost marriage for him and bury him alive, all because of the evil deeds his family had committed a hundred years ago.
The village chief, his father, and the old people who suddenly became hideous tried absurdly to brainwash him.
If there is guilt, then let this dirty and despicable bloodline end here, there is nothing wrong with that!
He secretly released the innocent and poor doctor, but was discovered by the villagers.
What followed was a dark and gloomy life in the cellar. Under extreme oppression and guilt, the innocent student was completely driven crazy...
In sharp contrast to the sloppy beggars are the walls of the village chief, Wu Dajun’s house, which are stained red with blood and the poor people who have been harmed by the evil people of the Wu family for many years.
I can finally get my revenge and I can't wait to drink his blood and eat his flesh.
Along with the sloppy beggar, there were five people who were mixed in with the group of monsters and demons and were safe and sound.
Because of his special physique, a group of demons and ghosts of all sizes surrounded Shen Haoran, lingering around him. Even a weasel and a white snake transformed into their original forms and hung on Shen Haoran's legs and neck.
The ghost without a physical body said, "You smell so good," and hugged me, and as expected, my body "went through the model".
They seemed to have found some fun game and were happily practicing wall-walking skills around Shen Haoran.
As early as the Red and White Collision and the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons began, the professor and his companions fainted one after another with their eyes rolled back.
Wan Chuhang, who finally fainted, actually grabbed the corner of his clothes and said, "Haoran, the rest is up to you."
Shen Haoran stood beside the four people who had fainted behind him, and the smile on his face was uglier than crying.
If he were given a chance to choose, he would just roll his eyes and pout.
【I also……】
[Honestly, that red and white collision, and the conflict between humans and ghosts, was a truly classic scene.]
Our ancestors' aesthetic taste is indeed amazing, but it's a bit shady.
【Down to earth! 】
[Are you sure it's not the Grounding Mansion?]
[And the soundtrack. Oh my god, what instrument is that? Every time I hear it, my whole body goes numb.]
[I know this, a rogue instrument, the quintessence of Chinese culture, the suona!]
【Anyway, it’s finally over.】
[Yes, it's over, and it's a happy ending with good deeds being rewarded and evil deeds being punished. Well done to Director Huan.]
At the end of the story, the hunter and Xiao Cui left together. Before leaving, Xiao Cui apologized to Shen Haoran. During this time, the ghost groom's deep gaze was always on Shen Haoran, until Xiao Cui gave the stupid groom an elbow, the other party put away his cold gaze, and handed a token of his own to Shen Haoran with a buzzing sound.
"There is my ghost contract on it, which can protect you."
The two ghosts walked away hugging each other, happily reunited. Shen Haoran couldn't help but lean back no matter how hard he tried.
In the township hospital, five people on IV drips looked at each other in bewilderment. Wan Chuhang scratched his head and said, "I think I had a really bizarre dream."
"Why can't you remember it?"
"This virus is really powerful. It has wiped out several of us."
Professor Gao, even as he was on an IV drip, lectured the other young people, "We need to exercise more. Our health is the foundation of the revolution. Oh, by the way, did I leave my notebook in the mountains?"
"Yes," Shen Haoran replied, "I've kept them all for you, Professor."
"That's good, that's good. You can forget anything, but you can never forget knowledge."
"We all fainted at the same time, and were eventually discovered by fellow villagers who were picking wild mushrooms. Why does it feel so weird? What do you think, could it be?"
Tong Jiajia lowered her voice and whispered, "I encountered a wandering ghost in the mountains."
"In my dream, I seemed to be invited to a wealthy family's home and attended a lively banquet. The red lanterns were particularly strange."
Professor Gao coughed lightly and said, "A gentleman should not speak of strange things."
But, for some reason, after a pause, Professor Gao spoke again, adding, "You can choose not to believe, but sometimes you should also be in awe. Of course, there's a saying from our ancestors that makes sense: 'If you don't do anything wrong, you don't have to worry about ghosts knocking at your door.'"
"I hope that what you learn from me is not only knowledge, but also the principles of being a good person, and that you can become an upright and good person."
"Yes." As Shen Haoran and several other friends looked at each other with smiles and responded, the movie ended and the three words "The End" slowly appeared on the screen.
【Congratulations on the end! 】
[If you don't do anything wrong, you don't have to worry about ghosts knocking on your door! Remember this!]
[Does anyone feel like I do that Director Huan is very gentle? ]
[Put down a terrifying screenshot of the ghost bride. Repeat it again. Who did you just say was gentle? I'm almost scared to death by Director Huan, okay?]
[However, although some of the scenes were indeed quite scary, and I held my boyfriend tightly throughout the whole process, I can't blame Xiao Cui. She was also a victim, and even so, she didn't kill innocent people, right? And the members of Xiao Shen's protagonist group who never abandoned or gave up on their friends seemed to have a kind heart.]
[That's right, after watching it, the body felt cold, but my heart felt strangely warm. Fusing these two completely different emotions into one, I'm truly the Miracle Huanhuan.]
【By the way, what do Yan Tianxing's friends think? 】
【The audience is dead, burn paper if you have something to say. 】
【……】
[Yes, that's right, he was scared to death by Director Huan.]
[Indeed, Director Huan's horror films are excellent, but the problem is that they're too good. So, I shouldn't do that next time. I'm home alone now with all the lights on, but I'm still scared. I should probably go back to suspense films.]
Yan Tianren:
They finally found such a treasure director, so it would be okay to poach him in person.
Are they scared? Of course! They're terrified! But that's the kind of excitement they enjoy on a hot summer day.
It’s beautiful and I love to watch it. So much!
I love drinking hot water in the dog days of summer and eating popsicles on snowy days. I shiver in my bed in cold sweats while watching horror movies while howling.
Don’t ask, the only answer is Iron Head Kid!
【……】
[Yantian’s family, you…]
[Summer, what a warm name, but it tastes so gloomy?]
[Shashasha, I didn't realize my taste was so down-to-earth, but Director Huan's movies are so satisfying! I was so scared I want to watch another hundred episodes!]
So, when will Director Huan's next horror film be released?
My goodness, it's only been a short time! You Yantian people have integrated so quickly.
There is no next film for the time being, but I have a special taste and like the underworld style, so that’s easy to say.
Find out about haunted house adventure.
That’s right, this is Qinqiang Real Estate’s second major project after Weiyang Street.
Qin Dongxiao, the young prince of Qinqiang Real Estate, the top star of Xinghuo Entertainment, and the male lead of "Red and White Double Happiness", finished filming the movie with pain and joy, and crying bitterly. The frightened old Qin was furious and yelled evil words, which coincided with Director Huan's idea.
Sharing happiness with others is worse than enjoying it alone.
Doesn’t it feel like just watching the movie isn’t enough?
The experience of those who have been there tells us: yes, only by experiencing it in person, accompanied by screams and the real five senses, can you feel more involved and more excited, and experience the joy and essence of Chinese horror.
The filming had just finished, and before Director Huan started editing, Qin Dongxiao took the initiative to volunteer, as the young master of Qinqiang Real Estate, to work with Xinghuo Entertainment on a new project: Double Happiness. The film's offline peripheral products - a large-scale real-life haunted house escape are being planned.
Even through the construction of the haunted house, Qin Dongxiao's mind was opened again.
Our Red and White Double Happiness can link the haunted house and the Wujia Village exploration adventure.
Director Huan’s other IPs can also be restored to their original form, allowing the audience to relive the joy and tears involved.
Qin Qiang Real Estate has started construction on another major project on Cang Tianxing - Sparks Spreading Across the Prairie.
Standing in front of the grand blueprint, Qin Dongxiao announced loudly: Every work of Director Huan in the future must be brought to reality. Even though our Xiaohuo is not yet a top entertainment company, we must have all the necessary supporting facilities, including offline theme parks!
Companies like Fenghuo, Dingsheng, and the recently promoted Lingtian Entertainment, after becoming top entertainment companies and owning several large IPs, have invested heavily in creating theme parks that belong exclusively to their own companies!
But who says you can’t build a theme park before becoming a large entertainment company?
He, Qin Dongxiao, will build the Spark Kingdom for Director Huan in advance. Director Huan dotes on his fans, and as Director Huan’s number one younger brother, of course he has to help Director Huan dote on his fans!
If you want to see the real Tushan and return to your farmland, welcome to Xiaohe Village and sit with Awang and Grandpa Li to watch the clouds roll by... and red silk and white mourning, come to the red and white area to unlock more horror illustrations.
Qin Dongxiao also believes that with Director Huan's speed and the efforts of the talented directors now gathered in Xinghuo Entertainment, led by Director Zheng, Director Chen, and Director Guo, their Xinghuo Liaoyuan Theme Park will expand outward at an astonishing speed!
The audience didn't expect that it could actually be experienced online.
[If you don't understand, just ask. Is Xinghuo so considerate? ]
[The ones who are close to me are our Director Huan and Lao Qin! Hahaha! ]
Are you going?
Need I ask? Of course.
The one leading the way is the Yantian star at the top.
Although they feel that they have already watched the film and are familiar with the plot, and there is nothing that can make them scream anymore, but, that is Director Huan, and those are the red and white peripherals, they must support it!
Of course, the confident people in Xiatian will soon find out that they are still too naive.
What? Nothing scares them anymore? Haha.
It should be, there is nothing they are not afraid of qaq!
As expected, the Spark Theme Park City, which is across the street from Weiyang Street, has become popular again.
Whether it is a combined ticket or a single ticket for a single project, it is still packed with tourists every day. If you want to go in and play, you need to grab a ticket a long time in advance.
Even though it was so troublesome, it still did not dampen the enthusiasm of the interstellar friends. They even joked to themselves: This is the first time that we need to grab tickets to visit a pedestrian street.
As for the need to grab tickets for theme park cities, this is a tradition in the interstellar world, especially theme park cities backed by star directors. The classic IPs produced by star directors are enduring, and as the years go by, they have influenced generations of people and have long become classic check-in spots for Internet celebrities.
Like other film and television work areas, Double Happiness has its own unique work area, which is also one of the must-visit spots for netizens after visiting Sparkling Liaoyuan.
The haunted house, the most classic attraction in the area, has also become extremely popular online.
In addition to the most classic haunted houses with a similar main line to Double Happiness, there are also haunted houses with Chinese and Western cultures such as the Xiangxi Corpse Driver, Horror Academy, and Red Apple Kindergarten, as well as vampire-themed and Halloween-themed haunted houses on the mother planet, which are all popular among interstellar people according to their different levels of difficulty.
Although similar to script-killing shows, there is a limit on the number of people allowed in each day, the difference is that the audience is not prohibited from taking photos or videos during the haunted house visit.
In Qin Dongxiao's words: Sometimes the unknown and mysterious are a kind of fear, but sometimes the more you understand, the more fearful you become. The feeling online and offline is completely different, so he is not afraid of spoilers. If he fails to scare the lovely tourists, he will lose.
It goes without saying that the largest group of visitors and audiences to the haunted house are definitely the tourists who come from far away Yantian Star.
It's not that they are not afraid, but the scarier it is, the more exciting it is. And as Qin Dongxiao said, even though many images and short videos have been released on the Internet, tourists who come to the haunted house will still be frightened.
【People are frightened silly.】
As a summer resident, I have a love-hate relationship with haunted houses. Now I don't even dare to go to the bathroom alone at night, but why do I still want to go? God bless me and let me grab another combo ticket.
I expected to be scared. I'd read so many guides and pictures online, and I thought I was strong enough. But I didn't expect that in the end, I was so scared that my legs gave out, and I was carried out on a stretcher by the staff. I was probably embarrassed for the rest of my life.
[Tears welled up. We have a super cute little bunny at home. Who could have imagined that after participating in the Xiangxi zombie-carving haunted house, looking at my big baby, his red eyes jumping around, I automatically pictured him as Zongzi Big Brother. I couldn't help but recall the half hour he was being chased. I had no choice but to send the little bunny home and ask Mom to take care of him for a month. Woohoo, baby, Mommy's sorry. I'll take you back as soon as I recover from the trauma.]
Obviously, most netizens have some idea of their own courage, but some people listen to advice while others don't believe it.
Three of them are Lu Tian from Yantian Star and his two roommates Peter and Pan Xinyang.
The three of them are all college students. Because the rules and regulations of each school are different, the majors of Lu Tian and his roommates in the dormitory are mixed up.
Lu Tian himself majored in psychology, while Peter and Xiao Pan studied medicine and sports respectively.
Although they have different majors, the three of them are close friends.
According to their own words, they are both civil and military. Earlier, they formed a three-person exploration team and set up their own live broadcast room.
They often participate in some challenging activities offline, such as outdoor sports, racing rallies, etc., pursuing the most favorite exciting sports of the Yantian people. Coupled with the relaxed and funny atmosphere among the three, they have also gained a large number of fans.
As little experts in surfing the Internet, the three of them also found the increasingly popular "Red and White Double Happiness" through the Internet shortly after the merger of Yantianxing. It is said to be a Chinese horror movie with the culture of the mother planet as the theme, but it is particularly in line with the tastes of the people of Yantianxing.
Therefore, I also became a fan of Director Huan.
I heard that Xinghuo Entertainment has built their theme park on Cangtian Star. As the absolute boss of the theme park, Director Huan has authorized all his works for login, including their favorite "Red and White Double Happiness". They even opened an offline horror haunted house in the area.
The three of them immediately got ready to go on a spontaneous trip and to conduct an exciting live broadcast.
It’s a pity that they had good intentions but were a little unlucky.
They were able to snag tickets after Catching Fire and the Haunted Mansion had already been in soft-runs for a month.
According to the plan, immediately purchase the spaceship ticket to Cangtian Star.
