Chapter 55 I will take responsibility. Why do you do this for me?
Lao Gui quietly turned on his camera and took pictures of the river. Although the night light was dim, he could still make out the faces clearly.
Seeing Zhou Youguan walking back and forth, Wang Chunqin also changed direction and walked back and forth like a patrol to check.
He walked forward for a while and seemed to see a red dot vaguely in the dark. It flickered slightly and then went out. He thought he was dazzled.
Because the guests needed to take a shower, the staff did not follow them too closely and filmed from a distance. Even Zhou Youguan and his group were some distance away from Ruan Mengmeng and his group.
Wang Chunqin rubbed his eyes and looked carefully, but he could no longer see the red dots flashing, as if he was just dazzled.
He turned around hesitantly, and looked back several times but didn't see the bright spot, so he went back.
After a while, he came over again and saw the red dot again. He realized something was wrong and hesitated whether to tell Zhou Youxuan and the others. But then he thought about how Wei Wei and Zhou Youxuan usually took care of everything, so Ruan Mengmeng and the others believed in and admired Wei Wei so much. Every time he was ridiculed by Ruan Mengmeng, he felt uncomfortable. After all, he was not that bad.
With the intention of showing everyone his abilities for once, Wang Chunqin walked alone towards the direction of the flashing red dot.
Wang Chunqin walked lightly. The closer he got, the more he realized that the light was clearly coming from some modern instrument, but there was no one else there except their production crew.
Moreover, from the position in front, he could see Ruan Mengmeng and the others below. He thought that someone was taking pictures secretly, so he did not call Zhou Youguan and the others over in time. Instead, he went over first, intending to catch the other person in the act.
He was extremely careful and finally managed to get close to that place, but he was still discovered by the old ghost.
Wang Chunqin was not too surprised to see that it was the old ghost. After all, outsiders generally could not enter this kind of place. But he still couldn't help feeling a little scared.
"You are taking secret photos!" When Wang Chunqin found out that it was Lao Gui, he lost some of his desire to be a hero. He turned around and wanted to call for help, but before he could say anything, Lao Gui covered his mouth.
The old ghost pushed him down the slope, pressed his palm tightly on his lips, and warned him not to move.
Wang Chunqin felt like he was about to be suffocated. He wanted to struggle but could not escape the old ghost's grip. No sound came out of his throat, and all his shouts could only form angry and fearful "woohoo" sounds.
"Scream again?" Seeing his eyes red from struggling, the old ghost laughed even more excitedly, "Wei Wei ruined my business, so you have to ruin mine too."
Wang Chunqin struggled too hard. Although Lao Gui was smiling, his eyes were full of anger, as if his resentment towards Wei Wei was also aroused at this moment. He covered Wang Chunqin's mouth and nose, and punched Wang Chunqin's head and chest with his iron fists, treating him as a sandbag for training.
When Zhou Youguan turned around, he didn't see Wang Chunqin and thought he had walked a little further inside, but when he turned around the second time, he still didn't see anyone.
Feeling something was wrong, Zhou Youguan told Wei Wei to stay put and not move until he came back before leaving.
Wei Wei didn't know where Zhou Youguan was going. He only heard his footsteps going away. He listened attentively and followed him.
Seeing Zhou Youxuan coming towards them, Lao Gui dragged the unconscious Wang Chunqin into the bushes on the side. He hurriedly picked up the camera on the ground. The lighting device was in Ruan Mengmeng's hand. Zhou Youxuan could only move forward in the dark, shouting Wang Chunqin's name.
Wang Chunqin's mind was numb, but he could hear Zhou Youlan calling him. He opened his mouth to respond, but the old ghost covered his mouth again.
The pain in his body made it impossible for him to push the old ghost away, and he had no strength to escape. He lay on the ground like a dead fish.
He had never been so terrified before. In such a dark night, no one could see him being beaten here.
The wounds on his body hurt so much that he wanted to die, but he couldn't call for help, couldn't get anyone to help him, and now no one could come to help him.
A figure suddenly emerged in Wang Chunqin's confused mind. That thin figure was always able to turn the tide and help them out in difficult situations.
He is now looking forward to meeting Wei Wei, because only Wei Wei can cure these people, and only Wei Wei can save him.
Thinking of this, Wang Chunqin couldn't help but laugh at himself. In fact, he and Chen Nan were the same. They didn't want to admit that they admired Wei Wei, but their self-esteem always made them unwilling to admit it.
"Where did you go?" Zhou Youguan muttered softly.
Everywhere he looked was pitch black. He could vaguely hear the voices of Ruan Mengmeng and Lin Yue. This place was not far from Ruan Mengmeng and the others, so Wang Chunqin should not have gone too far.
Hearing footsteps behind him, Zhou Youxuan turned around and saw Wei Wei coming up behind him quietly.
"..." Zhou Youguan quickly turned around and reached out to let him hold on, "Didn't I tell you to stay where you are? Why are you following me?"
What’s rare is that Wei Wei didn’t hit the tree.
Wei Wei did not respond to him, but he smelled an unusual smell, the smell of rust... the smell of blood.
Wei Wei grabbed Zhou Youguan's arm and pinched it gently. It wasn't just Wang Chunqin who was nearby. He could clearly hear two rapid breaths, one of which was even much heavier.
Seeing Wei Wei's stern expression, Zhou Youguan immediately understood and continued to call Wang Chunqin's name.
The two men moved forward slowly. Zhou Youguan kept looking around, but found nothing unusual. Wei Wei secretly gestured to him to go around from another direction.
"I'll go look over there, you stay here and don't move."
Seeing Zhou Youguan walking away, the old ghost slowly stood up his bent body. He covered Wang Chunqin's mouth without letting go, mainly because he was really curious whether Wei Wei was really blind.
Seeing Wei Wei standing there with lifeless eyes and his steps obviously tentative, he curled the corners of his lips in satisfaction.
He pointed at Wang Chunqin and silently warned him not to speak. Wang Chunqin's eyes were blurry and he didn't hear what Lao Gui said at all.
The old ghost took out the crossbow from his bag and placed an arrow on it. He raised the crossbow and shot an arrow in the direction of Wei Wei without hesitation.
He thought that he would definitely succeed this time, because Wei Wei could not see and did not notice their presence. Or maybe Wei Wei could sense that there was someone nearby, but Wei Wei could not see, so how could he find his location?
But he obviously underestimated Wei Wei, a young general who had fought on the battlefield at a young age. He was surrounded by swords, spears, and halberds. If he had no alertness just because he was blind, he would have died countless times on the battlefield.
The crossbow arrow pierced through the wind and flew towards him, drawing a streak of bitter cold in the dark night.
Wei Wei's shoulder tilted to one side, and the crossbow arrow pierced through very close to his throat, and then he held it firmly in his palm.
In the dark night, the outline of Wei Wei's figure formed a pure darkness. It could be clearly seen that he calmly dodged the crossbow arrow and turned the crossbow arrow around his fingertips several times like playing with a toy.
The old ghost was stunned for a moment, and the fear of Wei Wei filled his heart again. He was originally lying on the slope, but now he couldn't help but kneel down.
Seeing Wei Wei walking towards him, he suddenly felt a chill on the back of his neck. He hurriedly put the crossbow arrows back into his backpack and was about to run.
I don't know why I ran, it seemed like a subconscious action.
It was obvious that Wei Wei couldn't see, and he knew that Wei Wei couldn't see at all, but Wei Wei seemed to have never lost his vision, and every step he took was full of momentum.
Wei Wei was getting closer and closer, and the old ghost turned around and ran away in panic. Hearing the chaotic and panicked footsteps, Wei Wei listened carefully and the crossbow in his hand flew towards the source of the sound.
The old ghost cried out in pain. Zhou Youxuan heard the sound and hurriedly ran towards it. Wang Chunqin also stood there in a daze. He opened his eyes with difficulty, and his eyes were filled with blood flowing from his head. He could not see clearly and could only barely see the old ghost's fleeing figure and the sound of footsteps gradually approaching him.
He struggled to get up sideways, propping himself up with his arms on the ground, and saw that the man was coming towards him. He was thin, with a few strands of hair in a high ponytail draped over his shoulders.
Who else could it be but Wei Wei?
Whenever he saw Wei Wei, it was as if he had seen his patron saint. Wang Chunqin's heart was hanging in the balance, dying and coming back to life. He finally truly understood and comprehended how Ruan Mengmeng and the others relied on and revered Wei Wei.
This feeling of knowing that I will not die today as long as Wei Wei appears, and knowing that he will definitely help me, is really an untouchable sense of security.
Wei Wei is a person who really makes people feel like they are under a spell, and they can't help but keep their eyes on him.
Wang Chunqin was punched in the eye socket, and his eyes were covered with sticky blood and he couldn't open them, but he still tried hard to open his eyes and look at Wei Wei.
His voice trembled: "He, he wants to run away."
The old ghost who fell to the ground held his leg, groaning in pain from time to time.
Everything in front of Wei Wei was black, and he could only rely on his ears to listen to the sounds to identify the opponent's location. For example, if the crossbow arrow just now had been thrown when he could see, it would have directly pierced the old ghost's neck, not the calf.
However, he accidentally stopped the old ghost from escaping and stopped him.
Lao Gui knew that he could not beat Wei Wei, so he had to run even if he had to endure the pain. Hearing the friction sound of Wei Wei getting up, Wei Wei pulled out the dagger from the side of his leg and held it in his palm.
But the sound of the old ghost limping and dragging the dry branches really affected his ability to determine the direction. In addition, Ruan Mengmeng and Lin Yue were talking non-stop, so he was unable to distinguish them for a moment. He could only open his eyes and listen to the left and right ears to distinguish them.
Wang Chunqin endured the pain and said, "He took pictures of Meng Meng and Sister Lin Yue. We must take the camera back!"
"Which location?" Wei Wei asked in a deep voice.
Zhou Youguan also surrounded the position in front of Lao Gui. Seeing Lao Gui sitting on the ground, he stepped forward to grab him.
Wang Chunqin was about the same distance away from him. He stared at his red and swollen eyes, which were narrowed into slits. "You are right in front of me, an arm's length to the right."
Lao Gui knew that Wei Wei would not let him go, so he endured the pain and stood up to run away, but he was facing Zhou Youxuan. Zhou Youxuan kicked him in the chest, knocking him over and falling to the ground, splashing a layer of dead leaves.
The muffled groan from the old ghost's mouth when he landed proved that Zhou Youguan's kick was quite powerful. An ordinary person would probably never get up after being kicked like that. Although the old ghost was in excruciating pain, he still struggled to move.
Because Wei Wei behind him was getting closer and closer, the chilling coldness he felt made him tremble with fear from the bottom of his heart.
Zhou Youlan didn't know that Lao Gui had a camera with the photos of Ruan Mengmeng and the others on him. It was only when he saw Lao Gui's sneaky look and Wang Chunqin lying on the ground unable to move that he made an association and kicked him.
But Wei Wei obviously did not intend to let Lao Gui go. The staff behind him realized that the three people who were guarding the two female guests were missing. They greeted each other and then carried the camera equipment to look for them.
The old ghost gritted his teeth, his heart filled with hatred and he wanted to tear Wei Wei apart, but he never had a chance of winning against Wei Wei...
As if he could see it, Wei Wei walked to the old ghost's feet, stopped half a step away, and stretched out his hand to him: "Give it to me."
"Pooh." The old ghost spat out the blood foam in his mouth, "What is it? I don't know."
Wei Wei said coldly but clearly impatiently: "I don't want to say it a third time."
Zhou Youlan was puzzled. He walked to Wei Wei's side and asked, "What? What did he take?"
Wang Chunqin, who was breathing weakly at the back, whispered, "He, he secretly took some photos. Mengmeng, they were taking a shower."
"What?!" Zhou Youlan was furious and immediately stepped forward to grab Lao Gui's backpack.
Lao Gui couldn't tear the backpack apart, and it finally fell into Zhou Youxuan's hands. Zhou Youxuan found a camera in it. The power button was still on, but there was not a single photo in it, and the memory card was missing.
"You bastard!" Zhou Youguan grabbed his collar. "Where's the memory card?"
The old ghost shrank his palm that was pressing on the ground, but it was too dark and no one saw what was in his hand, nor did anyone notice his little movement.
He gasped for breath, laughing ostentatiously, yet puzzled: "It's just a few photos of a female celebrity. She doesn't even know how many people have seen them. Why are you so anxious?"
"How about I share the photos so you can see them too?"
The old ghost smiled obscenely, and Zhou Youlan couldn't help but punch him in the face in anger.
"Hand over the memory card!" Zhou Youguan restrained him, afraid he would run away. "Or do you not want to leave this forest anymore?"
"Do you think you can touch me?" The old ghost said arrogantly, "If you try, I won't let you off no matter what. Do you think I'm afraid of you?"
Besides taking these photos out of bad taste, he also thought that he might be able to blackmail Ruan Mengmeng and Lin Yue in the future. These stars earn more in a day than they earn in half their lifetime. A few photos in exchange for some of their salary should be harmless, right?
Although he didn't say this out loud, they could roughly guess what Lao Gui was thinking, which was why they thought he was even more hateful and shameful.
After the last lesson, Zhou Youlan knew that only with evidence could he truly convict these people, so he had to get the memory card and completely destroy it to prevent future troubles.
Zhou Youxuan searched Laogui's body. The camera memory card was not a big thing, so it was not easy to find it when it was hidden on his body.
Wang Chunqin endured the pain and crawled towards them on his knees, wanting to lend a hand.
Lao Gui wanted to run but couldn't escape, so he came up with an idea: "The memory card is not with me. Even if you find it, I have already sent the photos to my personal account. If you want to solve this problem completely, then let me go."
Unable to hold back, Zhou Youguan punched him again to shut him up.
"You are not in a position to negotiate terms now. We are all witnesses. What you have done is enough to send you to jail for several years."
Wei Wei didn't have the patience. He squatted down and listened to the sound of Zhou Youguan and Lao Gui's clothes rubbing against each other. He tilted his head to determine Lao Gui's position. Soon Lao Gui's voice stopped abruptly and his breathing suddenly became difficult.
Wang Chunqin was startled by Wei Wei's sudden action. Wei Wei directly pinched the old ghost's neck. The old ghost had difficulty breathing and his veins were bulging. Wang Chunqin couldn't help but shrink his hands.
Although Zhou Youlan knew that Wei Wei didn't want to waste time on such things, he was still surprised because Wei Wei was ruthless with animals and didn't seem to show mercy to people either.
Zhou Youguan didn't find the memory card on Lao Gui, so he asked again, "Where is the card? I advise you to be careful. Maybe there will be a chance to talk."
The clenched hands loosened slightly. The old ghost felt suffocated and wanted to take out the thing in his hand, but he suddenly remembered that Wang Ren was also nearby.
With Wang Ren around, could Wei Wei really hurt him?
Lao Gui's eyes rolled back. Zhou Youguan and Wang Chunqin were both a little worried, fearing that Wei Wei would strangle him to death before Lao Gui could take out the memory card.
"The third time," Wei Wei's voice suddenly turned cold, "Where's the stuff?"
"Let me go, let me go, let me go," the old ghost burst into tears, "I will give it to you, give it to you, ugh——"
The old ghost couldn't help vomiting because he was being pinched too tightly, but Wei Wei was pinching his throat and he couldn't vomit, which was extremely painful.
But he didn't expect that there would be even greater pain waiting for him.
Wei Wei did not look at him directly. At this moment, he was completely blind. Because he could not see clearly and had difficulty distinguishing directions, he relied more on his ears and would instinctively turn his ears towards the source of the sound.
But no one expected that Wei Wei's third time was not a threat, but a reminder that his patience was running out.
Wei Wei released the old ghost's neck, and at the moment when the old ghost took a greedy breath, the dagger in his hand calmly and accurately stabbed into the old ghost's left eye.
When the dagger pierced the old ghost's eyeball, Zhou Youxuan and Wang Chunqin didn't react. They even remained numb for a long time after watching the scene. Later, they were startled by the old ghost's painful cry. Zhou Youxuan stood up suddenly, and Wang Chunqin fell backward with fright.
The look they gave Wei Wei was clearly filled with fear and worry.
"Wei Wei! You..." After being stunned, Zhou Youguan subconsciously looked around to see if there was anyone else here who saw this scene.
In just a dozen seconds, Zhou Youxuan thought of countless excuses and pretexts to exonerate Wei Wei. He even wanted to hide Wei Wei in the dark so that he wouldn't be discovered by others or the program crew.
But this is obviously not realistic, because Wang Chunqin was also here and witnessed the whole process.
The old ghost rolled on the ground with his eyes covered, and his screams were so painful that it made people's scalps numb. Wang Chunqin's whole body was shaking, and he even sobbed as the old ghost's screams became more and more intense.
They originally thought that Wei Wei's strangling was the biggest threat. If they were in his place, they would also be scared enough to hand over the things in their hands in exchange for safety. But they never expected that Wei Wei actually stabbed the old ghost in one of his eyes.
The old ghost's eye was definitely blind, and it was precisely because of this that they were so frightened by Wei Wei's cruelty.
The sudden shouting made Ruan Mengmeng and Lin Yue instantly alert. They quickly put on their clothes and climbed out of the water.
"Who is screaming? Why is it so miserable?"
Lin Yue shook her head: "Hurry up and get dressed, I'm afraid something happened to Zhou Youlan and the others."
The two of them put on their clothes and came up, and happened to meet the staff of the program team. They hurriedly explained: "We just arrived."
They don't suspect that the staff will take pictures of them taking a bath. This is in the program rules to protect the privacy of the guests.
"What's going on?" Ruan Mengmeng was a little anxious. "Who is calling? Where are Brother Wei and the others?"
The staff just shook their heads. They didn't know either. They had just discovered that Zhou Youling and the others were out of the filming range, and just now they heard screams. They guessed that something had happened to one of the guests.
[Walk faster, can you run?]
[Who is it? It can’t be my brother Wei]
[You're overthinking it. If Brother Wei was injured, he wouldn't scream like that. Brother Wei's bones are harder than steel.]
[Young Master yells like this, even Brother Wei wouldn't yell like this hahaha]
[He looks the most fragile, but he is the hardest here. I don’t even want to say that there are some muscular men.]
[That can't be Wang Chunqin, right? Is his voice that rough?]
[Hurry up, hurry up, I'm so anxious. Who is yelling like that?]
Everyone walked or even ran, simply because the cry was so shrill that it tugged at everyone's nerves and made them panic.
The old ghost kept twisting and rolling on the ground, and no one came forward to stop the bleeding. Wang Chunqin was terrified, and Zhou Youxuan grabbed Wei Wei's wrist and held it tightly.
"Wait a minute," Zhou Youguan's Adam's apple rolled, "I'll say later that I did it. When others ask you anything, you just say you don't know because you can't see right now. Got it?"
Wei Wei looked towards him following the sound. Although he couldn't see, he could probably guess what Zhou Youlan's expression was like. It must be full of worry and guilt.
Zhou Youlan has always been the most law-abiding person. Even though people like Lao Gui and Wang Ren have done so many evil things, he will still retain a bit of rationality when he is extremely angry and let the law punish the evildoers.
But now, she was actually taking the initiative to take the blame for him.
Blinding the old ghost's eye was no small matter, Wei Wei thought. According to the laws here, he would probably be convicted, otherwise Zhou Youguan would not be so panicked and would hold his hand so tightly that he almost broke it.
"No need." Wei Wei said, "I will take responsibility for what I did."
"What are you responsible for?" Zhou Youguan pulled him over and lowered his voice. "Even if Lao Gui was wrong tonight, when the police come, you'll both be held responsible for your own crimes. You committed intentional injury, which might even be as serious as murder. Do you know how serious that is?"
Wei Wei glanced at Wang Chunqin beside him with a dull look, "But he is here too."
Zhou Youxuan sighed: "I will handle it. Put everything on me later. I will explain to the production team. You don't have to say too much."
"Why are you doing this for me?" Wei Wei was puzzled.
Perhaps it was his repeated rescues and care during this period that made Zhou Youlan change his attitude towards him, but Zhou Youlan would not be so foolish as to take the blame for him, right?
