The production team was very wealthy and hired a five-star team to cook them a lavish meal.
The banquet was about to begin, but Li Jianshan, one of the major sponsors, still hadn't arrived.
As a major investor, Guan Qingchen should at least show some respect to Li Jianshan. He tried calling Li Jianshan, but the phone was constantly busy.
She Zhang had been busy all day and was starving. He asked, "When will he arrive? I'm starving!"
Guan Qingchen found it strange and said, "No one is answering the phone. Maybe the battery is dead? They'll probably be here soon."
She Zhang snorted, "It must be because Qi Yan didn't finish his homework!"
He now understands just how demanding students are these days.
Li Qinghuai, hoping that his son Qi Yan would become a dragon, still took Qi Yan to various extracurricular classes despite his advanced age. When others praised Qi Yan for being smart and good-looking, Li Qinghuai's old face would beam with joy, "This child is just both studious and smart, there's nothing I can do about it."
She Zhang laughed at Qi Yan: "Don't you even know how old you are? Is it fun to bully a bunch of kids who aren't even a fraction of your age?"
Qi Yan waved his finger: "You don't understand. One day I will become a pillar of the nation. You are welcome to come and give guidance at the International Youth Wushu Competition and the Youth Go Championship."
She Zhang threw a cushion at him, proudly raising his head: "I'm going to become the King of Snakes someday."
Qi Yan gave him a look that said, "Aren't you childish?"
Guan Qingchen said, "That shouldn't be the case. Isn't Qi Yan a pretty smart kid?" Besides, what kind of earth-shattering homework could a second-grade elementary school student have?
Han Yunluo came over after removing her makeup. "What's wrong? Hasn't he arrived yet?"
Guan Qingchen pulled Han Yunluo aside, "They're probably stuck in traffic."
He himself didn't believe what he said.
If there's a traffic jam in this godforsaken place, then it's the end of the world.
She Zhang rolled his eyes; Guan Qingchen's sour smell was truly awful.
According to his observation, the two played lovers on set and were very affectionate, and they often chatted together off-screen as well, so they are not far from getting married.
That means Guan Qingchen's blissful days are almost over.
So why do people need love? In the end, it only adds to sadness.
She Zhang planned to ask Jiang Si, who could transmit messages over long distances, so he could just ask Qi Yan.
Jiang Si looked at the script and reviewed today's acting.
The current plot is supported by her genuine personality; the perfectionist Master Jiang will never allow himself to leave a stain on his reputation in the entertainment industry.
She Zhang walked over and said, "Master Jiang, why don't you see when Qi Yan is coming? I'm starving."
Jiang Si didn't even look up. "What, didn't Guan Qingchen call to ask?"
No one answered.
Jiang Si glanced at the wall clock; it was already eight or nine o'clock at night. This shouldn't be happening.
After calculating for a moment, her expression changed. She then calculated again, and her expression became even more uneasy. "I can't figure out where they are."
She Zhang: "???"
"How could it be impossible to calculate!" If Jiang Si couldn't calculate it, who could?
But Jiang Si's expression told him that she wasn't joking.
"Where did they go?" Although She Zhang and Qi Yan didn't get along usually, they were still considered family and had a bond of thievery together, so he couldn't help but feel nervous.
It's impossible to calculate how serious this matter is.
With Jiang Si's abilities, she could calculate whether they were on the Heavenly Palace or deep in Hell.
Clearly, Jiang Si hadn't lost her magical powers; she was still the powerful Celestial Master.
That's what makes it so frightening.
In the end, the meal didn't happen.
Guan Qingchen said that they had something urgent to attend to, told everyone to eat and drink well, and then went to find someone together.
If Li Jianshan and Qi Yan are both lost, things will get really serious.
Jiang Si had a decent relationship with Director Guo of the Pinghu branch. When he heard that it was Li Jianshan, the former love-struck fool, who had gone missing, he was anxious and expedited the procedures for Jiang Si, checking various surveillance cameras along the way.
Ultimately, it disappeared after entering the tunnel south of Qingshan Road, and the surveillance cameras did not capture any vehicles coming out.
Director Guo wiped the sweat from his brow and asked the technician, "Could we have made a mistake? Or did we just not see it after it came out?"
The technicians felt insulted: "Director Guo, only a few vehicles have come out of this tunnel during this time period, and we now have ultra-high-definition cameras that can lock onto the tunnel in real time."
Having considered this, the technicians also felt a bit uneasy.
The tunnel was only a few hundred meters long; you could crawl out of it.
Furthermore, the onboard monitoring cameras of vehicles passing through the tunnel at the time also showed no abnormalities.
The only unusual thing was that when Li Jianshan's car was passing through a certain section of road, it suddenly accelerated to over 100 km/h. The high-definition camera at the intersection captured Li Jianshan's expression at that moment, which looked somewhat frightened, as if something was chasing him from behind.
The technician swallowed hard: "They weren't kidnapped by something, were they?"
Director Guo patted his head, "What are you thinking about? How can a police officer be so superstitious?" He then turned to Jiang Si and said, "Master Jiang, could it be that some kind of supernatural phenomenon has appeared again?"
Director Guo was very worried.
No matter how skilled or well-equipped they are, they can't accomplish something that requires human intervention.
Jiang Si watched the surveillance footage, her heart sinking to the bottom.
Guan Qingchen immediately drove the person to the so-called tunnel.
This direction leads to a film and television base, where there are very few residents, and in the middle of the night, almost no vehicles pass by.
This tunnel was no different from any other tunnel. Because it was short, there were no hidden doors or electrical equipment inside. The tunnel was smooth all the way through.
Not even an ant can hide here, let alone a person.
Han Yunluo leaned closer to the wall and looked at it. Perhaps it was because it was late at night and the dew was heavy, but many water droplets had seeped onto the wall, so many that they made her feel a little apprehensive.
Jiang Si smeared it with her hand. It was watery but not quite, and a little sticky. When it touched her hand, it was sticky and stretched into long strands.
She Zhang and his family have a lineage.
His eyes were filled with disgust: "Isn't that a demon?!"
Yakshas feed on fear.
It prefers to appear in the middle of the night, and because it looks so ugly and disgusting, it has scared many people.
This is when the Yaksha feasts.
Their goal is simply to scare people; they don't care if it causes heart problems or other accidents.
Of course, sometimes they eat people, depending on their mood.
It's considered a mid-level creature among the Asura race, and it's quite capable in combat.
Yakshas are born from human fear, and as long as humans do not overcome their fear, yakshas will exist.
The magic power was strong, but not strong enough to take the person and the car away together.
Now, neither the living nor the dead have been found.
She Zhang couldn't believe it: "Qi Yan is born with the element of fire, and Yaksha is born with the element of water. Even if they are naturally incompatible, Qi Yan has a defensive spell on him. Even if he couldn't escape unscathed, he couldn't possibly have lost so completely!"
Han Yunluo: "Then it can only mean that they encountered something more terrifying than the Yaksha, and even the Yaksha was taken away."
