After Xu Yue got on the bus, she looked a little nervous.
The bus was very old, and every time it braked and started, the car would shake violently, which made Xu Yue worry from time to time whether the bus would suddenly break down.
Fortunately, there were not many people on the bus. Apart from her, there were only a few tourists.
Xu Yue heard their conversation and found out that they were all Chinese.
The rugged mountain road made Xu Yue, who was sitting by the window, frightened. She now had the idea of backing out.
She slapped her head hard, not understanding why she was so possessed that she wanted to come here to beg the little ghost for help.
She would never have believed such a thing before!
"Hey," the girl sitting behind her suddenly greeted her, making Xu Yue feel a little uncomfortable. "Can you take a picture for us?"
"Here?" Xu Yue asked back.
"Yeah," the girl smiled. "You can't get such an old-fashioned bus in China, and I can even take pictures of the cliffs outside the window. Thank you!"
"Okay." Xu Yue agreed, and then wondered belatedly how they knew she was Chinese.
After an hour's mountain journey, Xu Yue finally arrived outside the deserted village.
Although it is an uninhabited village, there is a row of stalls selling food and local specialties at the entrance, and business is extremely good.
Xu Yue relaxed a little, reopened the forum and asked netizens.
"There's a shop at the very edge of the deserted village that sells Buddha statues and incense. When you go in, tell them you're looking for a wizard, and someone will come to see you."
Xu Yue quickly found the shop. It was decorated in a magnificent style, with solemn and majestic Buddha statues placed on the counter. It was hard to imagine that such a solemn place would be associated with a little ghost.
After pushing the door open, Xu Yue first smelled a strange fragrance, which instantly relieved her nervous heart.
Then Xu Yue heard someone whispering in her ear: "Hello, Miss, do you want to buy anything?"
Unexpectedly, the other party could speak fluent Chinese. Xu Yue shook her head and looked speechless.
The shopping guide seemed to understand something, lowered her voice, and walked over to her: "Are you looking for someone?"
"Yes," Xu Yue nodded: "Find a wizard."
"Come with me." The shopping guide closed the shop by directly closing the shutter door, and then took Xu Yue into the back door.
Unexpectedly, this back door was connected to a house in an uninhabited village. When passing the corridor, Xu Yue looked up and saw the hanging photo frame, and covered her mouth in surprise.
The photo frames contain photos of domestic celebrities and an elderly woman, including some superstars.
Only then did Xu Yue realize that the rumors about celebrities on the Cape Forum were true, and they had really come to see this wizard.
The shopping guide stood beside Xu Yue calmly, and waited until she had seen enough before saying, "My grandma is amazing. All these people became famous because of her."
"Is it expensive?" Xu Yue had put all her fears behind her at this moment. She wanted to be famous more.
"It depends on the person." The shopping guide said with a smile.
They walked into a small hut where incense was burning. The strange fragrance in the air was different from the one outside, very light, and made people feel peaceful and relaxed after smelling it.
Xu Yue glanced at the peculiarly shaped candlestick on the table. What was burning inside was not a traditional candle, but a black foreign object.
"What is that?" Xu Yue asked curiously.
The wizard sitting opposite her answered her in the local dialect, but Xu Yue didn't understand.
It was her granddaughter who explained: "That's a rhino horn."
Rhino horn?
Xu Yue didn't pay much attention to it. She took out a printed photo from her bag and asked, "Do you know her?"
The wizard suddenly smiled. She gently picked up the photo, held it in front of her eyes and looked at it for a while, then stood up and opened the cabinet behind her.
Xu Yue took a look and found a row of golden, child-shaped ornaments in the cabinet.
She knew that it was the legendary little ghost.
Then the wizard rummaged through the contents for a long time before he found a dark red imp and placed it on the table.
She said a few more words that were incomprehensible and asked her granddaughter to translate:
"Grandma said she knew the person in the photo. This person was very strange and sent the child back the next year. Grandma kept the child. Grandma said that when she saw you, she felt that you were destined to be together, so she wanted to give the child to you."
"Give it to me?" Xu Yue was very surprised. She instinctively felt that there was something wrong, but the temptation it brought was too great.
"Yes," the girl smiled, "If you keep it at home, you will become more and more famous."
More and more famous, more and more rich...
This sentence was too fatal. When Xu Yue came to her senses, she had already boarded the bus back to downtown Bangkok.
The little ghost had been placed in a special box and was taken away by her.
For some reason, when Xu Yue put the little ghost on her body, she didn't feel scared at all.
As for Huang Xiaoyin's matter, Xu Yue no longer planned to investigate it further.
"Have you finished your investigation?" The agent glanced at Xu Yue and told her the purpose of her trip to Siam.
"Yeah," Xu Yue nodded: "Huang Xiaoyin's death should have been an accident, and it has nothing to do with Siam."
"Well," the agent smiled, "then you have to focus on your work. You're really lucky. You know, Xiangjiang TV's new program was short of someone, so they asked you to fill in. This show is broadcast on satellite TV, so it's bound to be a hit. You have to seize the opportunity."
"good."
Xu Yue was completely relieved, her luck really had changed.
After returning home, Xu Yue quickly ran to the desk and looked at the little ghost in the middle with affection.
Even though she found out from the Internet that most of the little ghosts were filled with baby remains and ashes, it did not stop Xu Yue from liking it.
"You're amazing," Xu Yue stroked the little ghost as if she were her own child. "On my first day here, you've already changed my luck."
As she spoke, she pricked her finger with a needle and dripped a few drops of blood onto the little ghost.
She had read popular science articles that said using one's own blood to feed a ghost would be twice as effective with half the effort.
Of course Xu Yue wanted to do this. She didn't want to become famous slowly, that was too troublesome. She wanted to become famous overnight. She wanted those who looked down on her to flatter her!
After feeding the little ghost, Xu Yue hummed a song and went to do her work.
When she lay on the bed, the eyes of the little ghost on the table suddenly lit up.
The agent, having nothing better to do, clicked on the URL Xu Yue sent him again, muttering, "She actually believed this website was real. How stupid!"
Something unexpected happened. The personal blog that had been closed before could be opened again, but all the articles were cleared and only one video was left on the homepage.
The agent gasped and clicked on the video out of curiosity.
