Chapter 58 Chapter 58 Chapter 58
Director Wei's brows relaxed instantly, and he felt even happier.
He had been preparing for this suspenseful horror film about humans and ghosts for many years, but because the script was unpopular and not liked by young people, it was difficult to find actors who matched the characters' images and temperaments. In addition, he was not well-known and had no capital investment, so it was delayed for several years.
Gu Ting and Lin Mengmeng were also very happy. Lin Mengmeng covered her mouth and whispered in Gu Ting's ear, "Don't Han Na and Wang Mowen think they're superior and look down on us because one is an internet celebrity and the other is an 18th-tier actress who doesn't exist? When they find out we've jumped from the internet to the big screen in one fell swoop, they'll be shocked!"
Although Gu Ting had never thought about making a movie, he couldn't help but smile when he thought of Hanna's disbelief, jealousy, anger and helplessness after hearing the news.
However, when I get angry at people I hate, my breast nodules really become unblocked.
Director Wei had no idea what the two girls were secretly arguing about. He rubbed his nose and stepped aside to make way for them. "Gu Ting, the thief returned the item last night and left you a note. Take a look for yourself. We still don't understand what happened."
Gu Ting was stunned when he heard this, stopped smiling, turned around and went into the tent with a hint of disbelief.
The lights in the tent were bright. She glanced over and saw that the place that was empty yesterday morning was once again filled with various equipment, and they were arranged very neatly, as if someone had specially tidied it.
It was not until the second glance that she noticed that there was a stool placed not far in front of her. On the stool was an incense burner with three incense sticks inserted. Apart from that, there seemed to be a piece of white paper. Under the white paper was a small stack of pink paper, which was undoubtedly the pink color that Gu Ting was familiar with.
Gu Ting walked forward. A cameraman in the tent was holding a camera and pointed it at her. He whispered, "Just watch. The police told us not to disturb the scene."
Gu Ting walked over to look at the white paper. The words on it were written crookedly. Lin Mengmeng subconsciously read out loud: "It's my fault for offending Miss Gu. This small amount of money expresses my deep apology to you. Please don't despise it."
Gu Ting glanced at the photographer, who blinked his dead fish eyes innocently. After confirming that it was not a program effect created by the production team, Gu Ting was confused as if a mountain was shrouded in fog. Lin Mengmeng laughed so hard that she wanted to pound the table.
How could Gu Ting know a thief from a small town? Moreover, he was a criminal with weak morals. His parents and relatives would probably be unable to do anything to him. Would they give her face and voluntarily return the stolen goods or even offer compensation?
Who is she? The king?
She wasn't, so she could only wonder about it. She couldn't think of a reasonable explanation no matter how hard she tried.
Beyond her doubts, she felt a touch of speechlessness. She was standing right here, with tons of money in her card waiting to be squandered, beautiful mountains and rivers waiting for her to appreciate, and a wonderful life waiting for her to enjoy. Why would this thief burn incense for her when he was so crazy? No wonder Lin Mengmeng laughed like crazy.
The police arrived soon. They first took statements from Director Wei and Gu Ting and others, then packed up all the equipment returned by the thief, including the incense burner and money, and took them back for fingerprint identification.
Gu Ting asked about Zhang Xiaoming by the way, and the answer he got was that Zhang Xiaoming was ill. He didn't get anything out of him and he has been sent to the hospital for treatment.
Gu Ting was not too surprised.
By the time the police car left, it was already past five in the morning. Gu Ting and his friend were completely sleepless. At this time, they heard the locals who were watching the excitement say that there would be a high tide in the morning and now they could go to the beach to pick up things. Gu Ting was tempted.
Since the filming of the program started, she has not been able to really go to the sea, has not experienced the joy of opening a blind box of seafood anywhere, and has not experienced the joy of returning from the sea with a full load. This is too attractive to her.
Lin Mengmeng also wanted to go, and the two hit it off and immediately went back to Xiao Fugui's house to get the tools for going to the beach.
At this time of year, the temperature at the seaside is relatively low in the mornings, and everyone here needs food, so few people are willing to go out in the dark to pick up things.
Accompanied by a photographer, Gu Ting and Lin Mengmeng each put on a headlamp and rushed to the beach carrying their tools.
As the three of them approached the beach, a strong sea breeze blew towards them, making them shiver.
Gu Ting and the other person hugged their arms subconsciously. Although the weather had turned cold at this time of year, the wind this morning seemed particularly strong and cold, much colder than last night.
The waves today are also exceptionally big. You can hear the sound of waves hitting the rocks from afar. One wave after another, the sound is so loud that it seems like they want to smash the rocks into pieces.
It was cold, windy and seasy this morning, no wonder I didn't see a single local person coming to the beach to catch seafood.
Gu Ting and Lin Mengmeng began to hesitate. Although they wanted to go to the beach, the weather conditions did not seem to allow it.
Lin Mengmeng yawned, and halfway through, she was filled with a mouthful of sea breeze. She quickly covered her mouth: "...The weather is not good. We can still get some sleep when we get back. Let's go."
Gu Ting was dazzled by the headlamp worn by Lin Mengmeng and immediately turned his head away. The light from the headlamp on her head was like a knife that quickly cut through the night sky, briefly tearing open the darkness. At a certain moment, Gu Ting seemed to see something emerging from the sea.
Gu Ting used his headlamp to check. Although the headlamp was bright, it was only a drop in the bucket in the dark night. After shining it twice and seeing nothing, he replied, "Let's go back to sleep."
Just as she turned her head and was about to leave, something flashed in her eyes again. This time, Gu Ting reacted quickly, looked around, and quickly determined the approximate location.
"Mengmeng, quickly shine the light on this place. There seems to be something here."
Hearing Gu Ting's unusual tone, Lin Mengmeng hurriedly held the headlamp to shine on the place where Gu Ting pointed.
Once again, huge waves several meters high rolled up and slammed heavily on the reef. As the waves fell, a piece of wood slowly emerged from the sea in the direction that Gu Ting was looking at, just like bamboo shoots after the rain, breaking through the ground with calm momentum to welcome a new life.
The waves crashed against the shore and the wind howled, but the world of Gu Ting and the other two was unusually quiet. Until they saw a huge ship that had been silent for a hundred years silently revealing its old and mottled corner, as if announcing its return to the world.
It is just an inconspicuous corner of the giant ship. Its true size cannot be described by the naked eye. We only know that it is definitely not an unknown ship.
The giant beast can stir up a violent storm and cause the sea to become restless just by turning over.
Gu Ting and Lin Mengmeng fell silent in front of the huge, blurry outline.
The cameraman was so angry that he stamped his feet. If dozens of headlights were shone over there at that moment, it would have been a shocking effect that even an Oscar-winning movie could not achieve. What a pity!
Gu Ting and the other man were shocked for a long time, and it took them a long time to come back to their senses. Because of Zhang Xiaoming's matter, Gu Ting had the phone number of the local police and called them directly.
Before the cultural relics protection department arrived, the police arrived at the scene to provide protection. So the few police officers who rushed to collect evidence at four or five in the morning left and returned again after a while, rushing straight to the beach.
When several policemen met Gu Ting, they were speechless.
"Ms. Gu Ting, we meet again."
Meeting three times in less than three days was a bit too frequent. Gu Ting hurriedly offered her heartfelt consolation: "Fortunately, this time it's a good thing."
The police arrived. Originally, Gu Ting and the others could have left on their own, but people were just too curious. Even though the wind was strong and the waves were high, Gu Ting and the others were so cold that they shrank their necks and were still unwilling to leave.
As the sky began to darken, people from the cultural relics protection department finally arrived in a hurry. Without even having time to say hello, they put on their diving suits in advance and jumped into the sea like dumplings. Not long after, they swam ashore one by one.
Gu Ting looked around and saw that the sea had quietly risen, and the huge ship was once again covered by the sea, with only a fragment of the mast appearing from time to time. The people from the cultural relics protection department were helpless and could only mark the place and wait for the tide to recede before re-entering the water to investigate.
From the unconcealable excitement and ecstasy on the faces of the people who came ashore, it can be seen that Gu Ting and the others were not wrong. There was indeed a huge ancient ship hidden in the sea, and it must be of great archaeological value, otherwise they would not be so excited and dancing.
Gu Ting and Lin Mengmeng didn't even look at each other, but came forward in unison, hoping to hear information about the ancient ship from the archaeologists' conversation. However, the archaeologists were really excited and their voices were really low, so Gu Ting and Lin Mengmeng listened for a long time but heard nothing.
Gu Ting stared at the archaeologists, but she didn't know that someone among the archaeologists was also staring at her. Suddenly, a strange male voice sounded in Gu Ting's ear, like a sudden thunderclap out of the blue, which scared her and Lin Mengmeng.
"Have I seen you somewhere?"
Gu Ting turned around suddenly. Even though her heart had been tempered by thousands of trials and tribulations, she was still a little stressed by the sudden yell.
The old man who was speaking was about fifty years old, wearing thick black-framed glasses. His hair was a little long, and the sea breeze blew it like straw. But he didn't care at all, and his suspicious eyes were always fixed on Gu Ting.
Gu Ting calmed his heartbeat and returned to normal: "I am based in City A. This is my first time in City S. You must have mistaken me for someone else."
The old man resolutely denied it, his voice as loud as a bell, full of energy: "Impossible, I have met so many people in my life, but I don't remember many of them. If I remember them, it means I have definitely seen them!"
Lin Mengmeng stuck her head out and said, "Uncle, are you confusing her with some beautiful female star on TV?"
The old man seemed not to hear and was still lost in thought. Gu Ting and Lin Mengmeng turned around and left with light steps. After taking two steps, the sound of anti-aircraft guns rang out again behind them, shaking the eardrums of Gu Ting and Lin Mengmeng.
"I remember... There was a young anchor in City A who was kidnapped. She accidentally fell into an ancient tomb, threw gold cakes and artifacts as if they were rocks, and stabbed people with King Zhao's sword, causing huge trouble for our archaeological work... Was it you?"
Gu Ting stopped and looked back with a serious face: "No, professor, I stabbed people with a dagger, and the long sword was taken by the kid from the Yan family." Yan Xiu has a noble character and certainly doesn't mind her speaking the truth.
Who would have thought that the old man was even more heartbroken: "That was a gift from Prince Zhao's father, Prince Yong. It has a personal calligraphy from Prince Yong on it. It is more valuable than the sword. Now it has several holes in it. Did you know..."
Gu Ting, who was lying down and letting himself be ridiculed, said: "..." As expected, sooner or later you will have to pay for what you have done.
After a furious outburst, the old man finally regained his composure. "...But you were being chased by kidnappers at the time. It was an emergency, so there was nothing we could do. While cultural relics are valuable, human lives are even more precious. Forget it, just consider it just some drunken rambling from an old man."
Then he changed the subject: "How come you were also there when the ancient ship was discovered? What a coincidence!"
Gu Ting thought, your majors are archaeology and ancient tombs and monuments, and I also have my own major.
Gu Ting smiled: "Professor, unfortunately, the ancient ship was discovered when we were going to the sea in the early morning!" To be more specific, it should be the "wealth finder" she brought with her.
I don’t know if it was Gu Ting’s illusion, but I felt that the old professor’s eyes suddenly became clearer.
"What you discovered... is a good thing, a very good thing! You have made a contribution, and the bureau will definitely give you a banner when you get back." The old man was comforting.
This time, there are no ignorant people causing trouble, so the cultural relics on the ship will not suffer unnecessary harm.
As they were chatting, there was a sudden commotion a few meters away. The police who were about to leave suddenly grabbed a hunched man in the crowd for some reason and seemed to be questioning him.
Gu Ting originally had no intention of paying any attention, but the man had a shifty look, and his eyes as big as green beans kept glancing at her from time to time, which attracted the attention of the policemen. Later, they simply waved to let Gu Ting pass.
Gu Ting: "..." Who am I? Where am I? Where do I come from? Where am I going? Am I some kind of bad guy absorber? All the bad guys gathered around her inexplicably.
Gu Ting walked over accompanied by Lin Mengmeng, looked at Green Bean Eyes once, then looked again, but still didn't recognize him at all.
Gu Ting wished he could have the words "Excellent Moral Character, Three Good Citizens" written all over his face. He spoke to the police officer, whom he had met for the third time today, in a remarkably clear and bright voice: "Comrade Police Officer, I am absolutely certain that I have never seen this person before."
It looks so abstract and distinctive, especially its pair of green eyes that can emit a fluorescent light, which is amazing. If she has seen it, she will never forget it.
