Chapter 3: Spring Outing in Lingzong
As all the guests arrived, Song An signaled to the camera crew, and the live broadcast of the "Exploring Ghosts" program officially began.
[It’s finally aired. I thought the production team was so criticized that they dared not air it.]
[Ahhhh, it’s a fresh star baby. His face is so cute with its chubby cheeks. I want to rub it! 】
[Wow, Shachuan is so handsome and beautiful, she is indeed a great beauty! 】
[Oh oh oh, the rich lady Vivian is wearing a silk skirt from M today. This skirt is very expensive and it is easy to get snagged! I don’t even dare to watch outdoor activities for a while.]
The camera slowly moved and finally came in front of Qi Gu.
Qi Gu waved towards the camera, his voice clear and expressionless: "Hello everyone, I am Qi Gu, the master of Fuai Temple, and also the specially invited master of metaphysics of the program group of "Exploring the Mysterious".
Qi Gu is now a completely automatic scolding machine. The barrage of comments started as soon as he said hello.
[Expressionless face. Are you worried about something? Is this your business attitude? It wasn’t like this when I was setting up a gentle personality before.]
【Hahahaha】
[The corners of my mouth that had just curled up instantly collapsed. Ahhhh, program crew, why did you put such a dirty thing in front of me! 】
[What's in his pocket? Why is it so bulging?] 】
[Why is there a gourd hanging? You don’t think that hanging a gourd can screw over the metaphysical character, do you?]
[I am here to expose the fake news. This Fuai Temple is nothing but a fake Taoist temple. I have searched the Taoist forum for a long time but couldn’t find any information about it. Qi Gu himself is not an ordained Taoist priest. I guess he doesn’t even know what ordained Taoist priests are.]
[Silently +1]
[Quickly cut the camera, don’t force me to slap you!] 】
[The sister upstairs has a really bad temper, I like it]
…
The camera moved again and aimed at Lin Hanzhi, who frowned slightly and just raised his hand to say hello but was interrupted by a violent cough.
After a long time, he stood up straight, like a plum blossom in the snow: "Sorry, I'm not feeling well. Hello everyone, I'm Lin Hanzhi."
[Is this the amateur boy invited by the program team? She looks like a sick beauty. Hehehe, I have a bold idea! 】
[Why did the little brother take the bag of candy? Is it hypoglycemia? 】
[He is good-looking, but if his health is so poor, he should not participate in the show. I am really afraid that if he runs, he will die in my phone.]
[You are grabbing bamboo shoots upstairs]
After the guests finished introducing themselves, the director team asked the cameramen of each guest to follow the guests, and then the voiceover introduced: "Today, our program team is going to a town in Province Z, a clinic that has been abandoned for many years. According to the residents there, there are often sounds of chopping meat, the sound of heavy objects being dragged, and figures passing by quickly in this clinic... and there are also ghost faces stuck on the windows when you look closely. In order to make the program more watchable, the program team has placed clue cards in each room of the clinic. The guests need to explore the entire map and complete the puzzle before they can leave."
The voice-over deliberately made the sound eerie and strange, and the screen also switched to several suitable pictures searched on the Internet at the right time.
[Damn, suddenly posting a picture is the most deadly]
[I was so scared that I almost dropped the bun in my hand]
[No, are you, the production team, so insincere that you take us to see a place we have never heard of? At least there should be a list of the top ten most evil places in China, right? 】
[I’m dying of laughter. The program team has invited Qi Gu to be a guest, and you still expect them to be sincere? 】
[I hope the production crew can create a better set. I want to see Qi Gu, that bitch, get scared and scream and pee. Thank you]
[If you say so... the hand that was about to click to quit stops silently]
[That’s right, program team, please bring up the segments that I like to watch! 】
Obviously, many viewers who wanted to leave after scolding Qi Gu were attracted by this wave of remarks and stayed quietly in the live broadcast room, all of them looking forward to Qi Gu making a fool of himself.
Song An glanced at the screen that was automatically turning pages rapidly, and thought to himself that he had made the right choice in inviting Qi Gu. Regardless of whether he was a real master or not, and whether he had real skills or not, it was true that he had traffic and could attract hatred.
Look, it’s been a year, and netizens’ dislike for him can still be so clearly reflected in the live broadcast data!
Song An's fox eyes curled up in a smile, making him look even more cunning.
"It will take several hours by bus from here to Lotus Town. Everyone hurry up and pick a seat. We are about to set off."
Because the budget could not afford to hire a professional host, Song An simply took over the host's responsibility of cueing the process outside the camera.
The seats on the bus were spacious, even with the staff. Qi Gu didn't like being too close to others, so he sat in a row by himself.
He didn't know if it was his illusion, but he always felt that Lin Hanzhi, who got on the bus behind him, seemed to be planning to sit in the same row with him.
When he sat down on the seat outside, Lin Hanzhi's steps obviously paused.
Then he continued forward as if nothing had happened and sat in the seat behind him.
The bus was shaking and everyone started to feel sleepy, but because it was a live broadcast, they still stayed awake and communicated with fans.
As for Qi Gu, he tilted his head as soon as he got in the car and soon fell into sleep with drooling eyes.
Anyway, this time on the variety show is just a one-time deal, so why bother with the business or the character? He chose to let nature take its course.
In the seat behind him, Lin Hanzhi also fell asleep on his stomach.
But he is an amateur and netizens are too lazy to say anything about him.
[No, isn’t Qi Gu so unprofessional? Other guests were working hard but he just fell asleep? ? ? 】
[Maybe it’s because he has no fans to interact with]
[Lin Xiao, you...]
When Qi Gu woke up, the bus had already left the provincial road and turned onto a cement road with dense trees on both sides, completely blocking out the daylight.
It was cloudy all the way here, and the trees blocked out the sunlight when we were about to enter the town. I was afraid that this journey would be full of twists and turns.
Qi Gu thought about it without taking it to heart.
Turning his attention away from his surroundings, he felt as if someone was staring at him, and subconsciously looked towards the source of the undisguised gaze.
Looking forward - I found it was the long-haired handsome internet celebrity Shachuan.
His eyes were not kind, but full of sinister calculations. Qi Gu didn't bother to pay attention to this groundless malice, but his indifference made Shachuan more and more interested in him.
Just at this moment, a speck of floating hair in the air flew into his eyes. Qi Gu was hit and his eyeballs rolled upwards. He rolled his eyes several times before blinking the floating hair out.
Shachuan was following the camera with his back to him, so his eyes were not captured in the camera, but Qi Gu's rolling eyes were keenly captured by the camera.
【? ? ? Damn, Qi Gu is such a mean guy. No matter what Shachuan did, he rolled his eyes at Shachuan.]
[I feel sorry for our beauty, hug her]
[Why on earth would someone like Qi Gu, who has such bad character and is so sneaky, be invited to the show?]
*
The bus drove for another half an hour. During this time, Qi Gu took out some Want Want senbei, QQ candy, chocolate, and fruit jelly from his pocket while looking at the scenery outside the window. He ate them one by one, just like a primary school student going out for a spring outing.
[It turns out that there is food in my pocket, 6]
[No, we asked you to be a guest, not to come for a spring outing! 】
[Could it be that this guy suddenly wanted to establish a foodie persona?]
[To be honest, the garbage is not thrown around, good review]
[Do you have such low expectations for him? You praise him for not littering? 】
By the time Qi Gu finished a bag of beef jerky with his cheeks puffed out, the bus finally drove from the narrow concrete road onto the slightly wider main road of Hehua Town. The only person still asleep was Lin Hanzhi.
He sat in the seat to the left of Qi Gu in the back row, with his peach blossom eyes tightly closed and his long eyelashes casting fan-shaped shadows on his pale jade-like skin.
At the instruction of the director team, Qi Gu gently pushed the man's head and said, "Wake up."
He had a good first impression of Lin Hanzhi and thought that she was probably just like him, and that she was taught by playing badly.
Lin Hanzhi continued to lie on the back of the front seat, blinked slowly, and then met Qi Gu's gaze.
Qi Gu didn’t know if it was an illusion, but he always felt that Lin Hanzhi’s originally inorganic eyes seemed to be highlighted the moment she saw him.
"Sorry, did I oversleep?" Lin Hanzhi asked politely.
"It's okay. We haven't reached our destination yet. If the director hadn't asked me to call you, you could have still slept for a while." Qi Gu said and turned his head back.
Lin Hanzhi said "Oh" and continued lying on the back of the front seat, glancing at Qi Gu vaguely.
