Chapter 61 It's me, Mouse, getting married!
A short while later, Yun Shu and the others saw a car driving up in the distance. The window rolled down, and it was Gao Yuda, the CEO of Yuda Real Estate whom Yun Shu had met before.
"Hello everyone."
Gao Yuda sat in the car and simply greeted these people.
A staff member politely stepped forward and said, "Mr. Gao, would you like to come down and say something? Everyone admires you very much."
"No need, I have other things to do."
Gao Yuda looked a little anxious and quickly explained, "This place is my hometown. I came from this small fishing village. I'm back to pay respects to my ancestors. I have to go to the village now. You guys rehearse well, and I wish you a huge ratings success for your show."
"Okay, you can go ahead and get busy!"
Gao Yuda nodded, then told the driver to drive away. The car headed towards the small village shrouded in dark clouds.
"It turns out it was all their family's business."
When Yun Shu saw Gao Yuda, she instantly understood what the dark clouds in that small village meant.
When the car window rolled down, she saw a girl inside. If she wasn't mistaken, that girl was Gao Yuda's daughter.
Yun Shu frowned. "The evil spirits here have their eyes on his daughter. Why did he come back? Coming back will only hasten his death."
Yun Shu thought she would go and take a look later.
She originally didn't want to get involved, but encountering it today felt like fate. Besides, the evil spirit was on the island, and letting it harm people would only embolden it, and it might even harm innocent members of the production crew.
"Alright, everyone go back to your rooms and rest. We'll start formal training tomorrow."
The staff's voices came through.
"However, I want to remind everyone that the training camp live stream starts tonight, so please abide by the training camp rules."
Yun Shu and the other trainees returned to their accommodation, put their suitcases in their rooms, and then prepared to go to the small village to take a look.
She and Xiao Yutian lived on the third floor. When she went downstairs, she saw Lei Jiao opening her suitcase. There were also the host and photographer standing outside the room.
When the host saw Yun Shu come down, he said to her, "Yun Shu, don't go out yet. I need to check your luggage to make sure no one is carrying anything they shouldn't."
"oh."
Yun Shu had no choice but to stay.
The host first checked Lei Jiao's suitcase and took away her mobile phone and game console. "You can't use any electronic products for a month. You have to hand these things over to me for safekeeping."
"Not even a game console?" Lei Jiao couldn't help but say. "My game console can't connect to the internet, so please let me keep it, otherwise I'll be bored to death."
"No, you can't."
The host didn't return it to her, and instead went to check the other people's suitcases.
Not only did they take away all the electronic products, but they also took away the snacks that Xiao Yutian brought, saying that trainees need to pay attention to body management and cannot eat snacks during training.
When they checked Yun Shu's luggage, they saw paper offerings, ghost money, yellow talismans, and a Bagua compass. The host and cameraman fell into an eerie silence.
Yun Shu blinked innocently, "The training camp rules don't say we can't bring these things. These are just some paper handicrafts."
host:"……"
Photographer: "..."
The regulations don't explicitly say you can't bring it, but what normal person would bring something like that? It's kind of scary!
Before the host could speak, Yun Shu pointed to the suitcase and said, "Do you have any you like? You can choose one, and I'll give it to you."
"ah?"
The host glanced at the paper offerings in the suitcase, then at Yun Shu, and forced a smile. "Yun Shu, are these all for the dead?"
"Since ancient times, no one has ever escaped death. You can keep it for now, or burn it for your family."
"No, no need!" The host turned to leave. "We'll go check the other trainees' things first. You guys rest first!"
[What kind of crazy thing is Yun Shu doing? Her suitcase is filled with nothing but clothes, paper offerings, and ghost money. You'd think she came to a grave!]
[In the previous two rounds of the competition, Yun Shu acted strangely, probably indicating mental issues. Jingchuan Entertainment then cooperated with her performance, portraying her as a charlatan to attract attention.]
[If you don't know, don't talk nonsense. You're the one with mental problems. That's the internet's King of Hell. Be careful not to get targeted by him!]
[Yeah, as a fan of Yun Shu, I have to say, these paper offerings are really valuable. You have to fight for them during her livestreams; if you're not quick enough, you won't get them!]
After the host left, Yun Shu jumped out of the second-floor bathroom window and avoided the nearby cameras by going to the fishing village on the island.
As she got closer to the fishing village, she could feel an increasingly strong evil aura. Following this aura, she arrived at an old courtyard in the village.
Near the old courtyard, Gao Yuda's car was parked.
There was some noise coming from inside the courtyard. Yun Shu went over to take a look and saw a long table inside, which was covered with incense, candles and offerings. A person wearing a yellow robe was performing a ritual in front of the long table, holding a peach wood sword.
"They really did look for him."
Yun Shu immediately recognized that the person performing the ritual was Boss Zhao, who wholesaled funeral materials.
This Gao Yuda probably couldn't bear to part with the money, so he found someone else to help him exorcise the evil spirits, hoping to get rid of their entanglement.
While performing the ritual, Boss Zhao said to Gao Yuda, "Mr. Gao, the cause and effect originated here, and only here can it be completely resolved. First, explain the whole story clearly. I, Zhao, will lay a net here tonight to lure the Gray Immortal here, and I will surely be able to kill it here! Once it is dead, its followers will not dare to cause trouble again, and your daughter will be safe and sound!"
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Mr. Zhao!"
Gao Yuda sighed and looked at the courtyard gate not far away with a complicated expression. There was a bloody "five" on the gate.
Only five days left...
Gao Yuda slowly said, "Eighteen years ago, I fell seriously ill. I was so sick that I lost consciousness and the doctors said I couldn't be saved. My family carried me to pray to the Gray Fairy and asked him to cure me."
The Gray Fairy appeared to me in a dream, saying she could save me and grant me great wealth, but only if I gave her my newborn daughter as her wife. Since it was a dream, I agreed without thinking. Only when I woke up did I realize something was wrong—how could my daughter marry a rat!
When I woke up, I found that I was cured, so I went to the Gray Immortal Temple in the village and told it that I was willing to agree to other conditions to make it give up the marriage. But the Gray Immortal did not agree, saying that it would marry my daughter when she came of age.
I had no choice but to take my family and go to the island to make a living. Unexpectedly, I was very lucky in business. I made money no matter what I did and quickly became rich. I gradually forgot about these past events.
Until recently, when my daughter was about to turn eighteen, a blood-red countdown suddenly appeared at the gate of my villa. The Gray Demon appeared in my dream, giving me seven days to bring my daughter back to my hometown to marry it, or my family would be ruined!
At this point, Gao Yuda became somewhat agitated. "Since my daughter was born, I have always cherished her and raised her with the utmost care. How could I possibly marry a rat! Even if this Gray Immortal saved me, I cannot agree to such a condition!"
It would be better if it took back my lifespan, but it refuses, insisting on possessing my daughter! It's not that I'm ungrateful, I have no choice; I can't harm my own daughter! I can only ask Boss Zhao to help me get rid of it!
"I see."
After listening, Boss Zhao said indignantly, "President Gao, you don't need to feel guilty. This is clearly the Gray Immortal deliberately making things difficult for you! I, Zhao, have already thought of a way to deal with the Gray Immortal. Tonight, I just need your daughter's cooperation."
Zhao will set up an array in this courtyard to lure the Ash Demon, and the array will then kill it here!
Yun Shu, who was hiding outside the door, heard everything.
Grey Immortal?
Is it a rat spirit?
But the dark clouds here are so thick, it seems that Boss Zhao can't beat the rat!
