Chapter 97 The soul is a living soul, but the person is a dead person.
"You're not dead?"
Yun Shu looked at his head in surprise.
“Your head is split open, your body is stiff like this, and your skin is rotting. How can you not be dead? You are as dead as can be.”
Yun Shu was a little puzzled. "But you're dead, how can you still talk?"
"No, hehe, not dead!"
The corpse stood in front of her and refused to leave, repeating the same sentence over and over again.
Yun Shu stared at him for a long time before finally noticing something amiss. "Your soul is still inside. It's a living soul, but the person is dead. You're trapped inside?"
Hehehe!
The corpse became increasingly agitated and even nodded with difficulty, confirming Yun Shu's guess.
Yun Shu said helplessly, "Then you have to go back first. The competition is going on here. My performance is over. If you stay here any longer, people will definitely notice something is amiss."
Go bury yourself first, I'll come find you in a little while. Don't worry, I won't break my promise.
The corpse remained standing still, but it withdrew its hand and stopped patting Yun Shu excitedly.
He hesitated for a long time, but finally decided to listen to Yun Shu's advice and leave first.
The body turned in a different direction, preparing to jump out of the exit on the side of the stands.
Yun Shu quickly grabbed him, "Jump out from backstage, don't go in front. If someone follows you, it will cause unnecessary trouble."
The corpse obediently jumped away from backstage.
"Ahhh!"
"Zombie!"
The staff and other trainees were terrified when they saw a corpse with a split head and rotting skin jump off the stage, and a chaotic commotion erupted backstage.
Fortunately, this thing quickly jumped out of the backstage exit and showed no sign of coming back.
Not long after the corpse jumped away, Yun Shu also came down from the stage, and it was the other trainees' turn to perform.
As soon as Yun Shu came down, the director and producer arrived. Both of them looked unwell, and there was still lingering panic in their eyes.
"Yun Shu, what's that thing?"
"I asked the director."
As the director, he was aware of the entire filming schedule and had never heard of any actors being hired to play zombies!
The producer also looked puzzled.
Yun Shu honestly replied, "It must be because I played the flute so well that the zombies nearby came over wanting to hear a live performance."
director:?
Producer: ?
The two men froze instantly, the horror of seeing the corpse jump towards them returning.
"It was my arrangement."
A calm, even voice came from behind.
They turned their heads and met Lu Shijing's dark and deep eyes.
Lu Shijing glanced indifferently at the director and producer. "Yun Shu told me about the songs she wanted to perform, so I had someone find an actor to create the atmosphere. Is there a problem?"
"No...no problem."
The director and producer exchanged a glance, both speechless.
How could the big boss be so capricious, arranging this kind of performance without even telling them! And that actor playing a corpse was so professional, it almost scared someone to death!
After Lu Shijing finished speaking, he walked to Yun Shu's side and said, "Let's go get some late-night snacks together."
Yun Shu was just about to find an excuse to leave the stage when she agreed, "Okay, what do you want to eat?"
"what ever."
The two went out together.
Seeing the two walking together from behind, the director and producer exchanged a glance, their eyes gleaming with gossip.
Why are the big boss and Yun Shu getting along so well? Are they planning to remarry?
When Yun Shu and Lu Shijing came out from backstage, Yun Shu said, "Let's not go for a late-night snack. I still have some things to take care of."
Lu Shijing quickly guessed, "Looking for that body? I'll go with you."
"Okay, that works too."
Yun Shu did not refuse, and she took Lu Shijing with her to find the body.
The fact that the corpse ran onto the stage because of Yun Shu's flute music indicates that the burial place was not far away, in this area near the square.
However, after accommodating a large stage for a performance, there was still a lot of empty space in the square. The area was so large that it was quite difficult for Yun Shu to find it by herself. Fortunately, Lu Shijing was also helping her to find it.
They searched for a long time.
Lu Shijing walked back from a more secluded side of the square to find her. "There was a flower bed over there, but all the flowers in the flower bed were upside down, and the soil was soft. It looked like something crawled out of the flower bed and destroyed it."
"That's very likely where the body was buried. Take me there to see it."
Lu Shijing took her there.
That was a small flower bed in the most secluded part of the square, and there weren't many people around at night.
The flowers on the inner side of the flower bed were all fallen over, and many were trampled. The soil in the middle had even formed small mounds, clearly indicating that the soil had just been loosened and then buried again.
"I'll go get two shovels."
Lu Shijing said.
"Need not."
Yun Shu pulled him back, then took out her flute. "He'll come out on his own."
Yun Shu played her flute, and sure enough, not long after, a pair of pale hands stretched out from the small mound in the middle of the flower bed, shoved the mud off its body, and jumped out of the pit.
The body stood stiffly beside the flower bed.
He was already dead, and the soul inside his body was still sealed, so he couldn't control his body at all. Therefore, he could only act according to Yun Shu's instructions.
If Yun Shu hadn't played the flute, he wouldn't have been able to emerge from the earth; he would have remained buried there until his body decomposed into bones, at which point his soul would have vanished.
Yun Shu put away her flute, stepped forward, and touched the corpse's forehead and shoulders with two fingers together. She then infused spiritual energy into the corpse, and a snow-white worm crawled out from the corpse's forehead.
"It's another Gu worm."
Yun Shu frowned, then used her spiritual power to crush the snow-white Gu worm to death.
After the Gu worms were removed, a transparent soul floated out of the corpse, but the soul looked completely different from the corpse.
"Thank you, thank you!"
The spirit excitedly thanked Yun Shu.
This time, Lu Shijing discovered that he could also see souls, but before he could figure out why, he noticed what the souls looked like.
He asked in surprise, "Sheng Shimin, I saw you just a few days ago and you were perfectly fine. How come your soul is in the body of a dead person? Are you dead?"
Sheng Shimin gave a bitter laugh, "I don't know if I'm dead or not. I feel like I'm not dead, and I should... be able to be saved?"
"You two know each other?"
Yun Shu turned to look at Lu Shijing.
Lu Shijian nodded. "His name is Sheng Shimin. He is the eldest son of the CEO of Shengtong Group and also the only grandson of Old Master Sheng."
Lu Shijing had just talked to Yun Shu about the Sheng family in his office today, but he never expected that he would find Sheng Shimin's spirit here tonight.
He frowned and said, "There's been no news from the Sheng family either. What's going on?"
"It's the work of a petty person."
Yun Shu stared at Sheng Shimin's soul for a moment, "Your soul is a living soul. A living soul is when a living person's soul leaves their body. In general, in this situation, the body is still alive, so you are not dead yet."
However, if the soul remains separated from the body for too long, the body will gradually weaken, and death will eventually occur. The other party caused your soul to leave your body and trapped your living spirit within the corpse, probably intending for you to die silently.
