Ji Qian never expected to be able to directly get Zhao Chengyuan; this was truly an unexpected delight!
Unfortunately, human happiness is not shared. When Chunhua saw that the person pulled up was not the beloved Dahai, her lips trembled and tears welled up in her eyes again.
Seeing Zhao Chengyuan's eyes closed, Mi Yesi and Xu Qi both came over to try to wake him up, but Zhao Chengyuan still did not respond.
Seeing this, Mi Yesi pushed aside Xu Qi, who was in the way, without hesitation, raised her left hand high, and slapped Zhao Chengyuan across the face.
The movement was so swift that even Ji Qian didn't have time to react.
With a crisp, loud slap, Zhao Chengyuan turned his head and spat out a mouthful of water. He then coughed a few times and slowly opened his eyes.
"What... happened to me?" Zhao Chengyuan was still confused; his memory was still stuck on the moment he stepped into the courtyard.
Ji Qian briefly explained the current situation to him. Zhao Chengyuan was shocked when he heard that the three of them had disappeared and struggled to get up from the ground:
"What about Ying Xu and Han Mengyao? Are they alright?"
"The production team is looking for them in the front yard. We don't know how well they're doing. Let's go to the front yard and meet up with the production team."
"etc!"
Seeing that Zhao Chengyuan had recovered, Ji Qian was about to return to the front yard when Chunhua loudly stopped her.
Ji Qian looked over at the sound and saw that Chunhua had stopped crying at some point and was pointing angrily at Zhao Chengyuan, shouting, "He's the one who knocked Brother Dahai down!"
Ji Qian had felt like she'd forgotten something, and only now, hearing Chunhua mention it, did she finally remember that unlucky Wang Dahai:
"Oh, right! I almost forgot about that, Brother Zhao!"
[Wang Dahai: Listen to me, thank you...]
[What a heartless woman! I like her!]
[The previous comments were quite unique! No problem, I'm even more unique, Chunhua, my wife, I love you!]
Am I the only one with normal taste? I still like Qiqi!
But your Qiqi likes scarecrows!
Shrimp and pork heart!
[Let's take away a peaceful and carefree Mimi!]
[No way? No way? There's still someone who doesn't know that Mi Yesi likes Ji Qian?!]
How many more people do you want to kill before you're satisfied?!
Zhao Chengyuan wasn't wearing his glasses and was looking at Ji Qian talking to thin air with a blank expression, never expecting that he would be involved in this.
"Brother Zhao, do you have any human-shaped objects on you?"
Considering that Zhao Chengyuan seemed perfectly normal, and that she hadn't found anything else at the bottom of the well, Ji Qian had a bold guess in her mind.
Although he understood the meaning behind Ji Qian's question, Zhao Chengyuan still thought it over carefully before answering cautiously:
"Besides the photos and videos on my phone, there should only be that wooden doll from before."
He reached out to grab it, but as soon as he touched the edge of the wooden doll, he recoiled as if pricked by a needle.
Seeing that Zhao Chengyuan's expression was off, Ji Qian volunteered, "I'll take it." As she said this, Ji Qian took Chunhua's hand and stuffed it directly into Zhao Chengyuan's pocket.
Chunhua was completely bewildered when his arm was suddenly grabbed. His hand had been crippled hundreds of years ago, making it impossible for him to pick up anything.
Ji Qian knew this, of course, but she didn't care. To be precise, this was actually the reason she chose Chunhua.
Ji Qian grabbed Chunhua's hand and rummaged around in Zhao Chengyuan's pocket, then forcefully lifted it upwards, and a wooden doll flew out of the pocket!
Seeing this, Xu Qi instinctively reached for it, but Ji Qian sternly stopped him: "Don't touch it!"
Xu Qi was so startled that he froze on the spot, and the wooden doll fell to the ground.
Ji Qian first went to the well and picked up the burned ghost, and then walked towards the wooden doll.
"Hey, hey, hey! What are you doing?! Help! You're killing a ghost!!!"
Amidst the screams of the burned ghost, Ji Qian gently poked the wooden carving on the ground with it.
Suddenly, the wooden doll, which had been lying quietly, sprang up and bit the scarecrow's foot.
"Ptooey, ptooey, ptooey! What is this stuff?!"
The wooden doll, its mouth full of weeds, stopped pretending to be dead and lay on the ground frantically trying to pull the weeds out of its mouth.
"What the hell are you? Where's Wang Dahai?!" Ji Qian said, casually tossing the burned ghost aside.
The burned ghost, who had been used and discarded, looked down at his shortened leg and deeply understood the ruthlessness of women.
Ji Qian initially thought Wang Dahai had accidentally bumped into the wooden doll, but unexpectedly, the voice coming from inside the wooden sculpture was that of a girl!
Upon hearing Ji Qian's question, the wooden sculpture, which was still lying on the ground retching, instantly assumed a posture:
"I haven't even asked who you are yet! Trespassing is a crime, you know that?! If you don't leave now, I'll call the police!"
As soon as the wooden carving uttered those words, Ji Qian instantly guessed that it was a young, isolated indigenous ghost, so she didn't beat around the bush:
Do you know Qian Erniu?
Upon hearing this, the wooden ghost suddenly became excited: "You know my father?! Where is he? I haven't seen him in so long!"
"You have to tell me where Wang Dahai is first."
Hearing Ji Qian's words, the wooden doll calmed down a bit, its small face filled with confusion:
"But I really don't know who Wang Dahai is..."
"Brother Dahai is a handsome, burly man who stands eight feet tall!"
Chunhua hurriedly chimed in, only to be kicked back into the bushes by Ji Qian:
"Don't listen to his nonsense. Wang Dahai is just an ordinary man with only an upper body, a square face, a bulbous nose, and small eyes. Do you remember him?"
