Si Jinyan sat in the car, feeling that something was wrong, but he couldn't quite put his finger on what it was.
Seeing her somber face and preoccupied expression, Si Zhuoxi couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"
The gentle, soothing voice brought Si Jinyan back to her senses, and she pinched the bridge of her nose.
Her heavy voice hinted at her somber mood: "I have a feeling something is going to happen."
"Is it because of what happened these past two days? That beautiful ghost? Or the Huang Daxian you mentioned last night?" Si Zhuoxi's first thought was these supernatural things.
"After the ghost incident, I put up protective talismans around the hotel, so ordinary ghosts can't get in. But I still feel like there's something wrong." Si Jinyan checked this morning and found that the talismans were still in place, which meant that no ghosts had come in.
But she was a cultivator, with exceptional senses and amazing intuition.
Her unease suggests that something unexpected is about to happen.
"It's okay, we'll deal with whatever comes our way. I'll be with you, even though I can't help much..." Si Zhuoxi patted her shoulder, comforting her.
However, his words of comfort were not very effective, because if anything happened, it would be Si Jinyan who would protect him.
Si Jinyan thought for a moment, took out a stack of talismans, and handed one to Si Zhuoxi.
"Keep it close to your body."
"Okay." Si Zhuoxi obediently placed it on her body, the kind that's close to her skin.
"We need to make sure everyone in the crew carries this talisman later," Si Jinyan said after thinking for a moment.
It's better to be safe than sorry; after all, she's only one person and can't be in two places at once.
Upon arriving at the filming location, Si Jinyan immediately gave Gu Qingqing a talisman.
Without saying a word, Gu Qingqing placed it close to her body. She now trusted Si Jinyan completely, after all, she was the one who had been "led" by him.
Seeing this, Su Ming also asked for one, without hesitation.
"To be honest, I also felt that the hotel was a bit strange." Su Ming put the talisman in his pocket and said seriously.
"What's so strange about it?" Si Jinyan asked Su Ming as he handed the talismans to the others.
Su Ming thought for a moment and said, "One night when I was sleeping, I felt someone knocking on my door."
"..."
“But I was too sleepy, so I ignored it. Later I asked them, and they all said they hadn’t knocked on my door,” Su Ming continued.
“It should be said that this calamity was not meant to be in your destiny.” Si Jinyan glanced at his face and said with a slight smile.
It's all because Zhou Jiayou has too many romantic entanglements.
Su Ming scratched his head and asked with a grin, "Then, Master, could you tell me about my future career, love life, and wealth?"
Si Jinyan stared at his face and said, "Your fate will only get thinner the more you calculate it."
Upon hearing her say that, Su Ming immediately waved his hand and said, "Never mind, never mind."
"Actually, living a simple and ordinary life is quite nice."
She only felt a little more at ease after giving talismans to everyone in the crew.
The nickname "Little Master" for Si Jinyan has already spread throughout the production crew.
Therefore, she distributed talismans on set, and Director Liu cooperated wholeheartedly, even asking if she wanted to pay him.
Si Jinyan refused. She believed that if she wanted money, she should ask a rich person. She felt that someone would give her the money.
I wonder which scoundrel is about to get into trouble.
Next came filming, and the crew got along peacefully throughout the day.
Everyone quickly finished work and returned to the hotel.
"It seems like Sister Qianwen has disappeared. I called her but she didn't answer." Si Zhuoxi thought of calling to ask about Li Qianwen because she hadn't seen her all day.
The other party did not answer the call.
Si Jinyan counted on his fingers, his brows furrowing deeper and deeper.
"A very bad omen," she said, pursing her lips.
"I'll go check on her room first." Si Zhuoxi was about to head towards the stairwell.
Si Jinyan immediately grabbed him and shook her head, "It's no use, she's not here."
"Junior Sister." Si Zhuoxi looked at her junior sister and saw that her brows were always furrowed, which made her feel very distressed.
He couldn't help but raise his hand and stroke her forehead. "Although I don't want anyone to be in danger, I especially don't want you to be the one in danger."
"I'm fine. It's true that with great power comes great responsibility. I won't decide whether to save someone based on my personal feelings." Si Jinyan's hand was held by Si Zhuoxi, as if she was giving her strength.
Si Zhuoxi didn't have any metaphysical abilities, and he couldn't help much, but he always wanted to give his junior sister a little peace of mind.
He knew his junior sister had good cultivation, and he trusted her.
But how can one be completely without worry or fear?
“We should have left on the very first day the beautiful ghost appeared,” Si Zhuoxi said.
“If we leave, someone else will come, and he will also encounter that vixen. It’s better to deal with it this time.” Si Jinyan grasped Si Zhuoxi’s large hands in return, his previous gloom gone, revealing a relaxed and cheerful smile.
"I've already come up with a solution." Si Jinyan's gaze swept over Zhou Jiayou, who had just entered the room.
When Zhou Jiayou saw that the master he had been longing for was looking at him, he immediately ran over to Si Jinyan.
A sunny, handsome smile revealed eight clean, even teeth. "Master, what a coincidence."
"What a coincidence! Could you do me a favor tonight?"
"..."
That night, a crescent moon hung high in the night sky, and the summer sky always seemed very far away.
The moonlight spilled onto the river, creating ripples.
"Knock knock!" A knocking sound came from the second floor.
Zhou Jiayou opened the door with a nervous heart. The person standing in front of him was someone he knew quite well.
The man took his hand and led him outside.
Zhou Jiayou smiled wryly and kept looking back to see if anyone was following him. Only when he saw two dark figures did he manage to calm himself down.
They continued following the man outside.
After walking for about half an hour along the mountain path, Zhou Jiayou's clothes were torn in several places.
"Where are we going?" he finally couldn't help but ask.
The person then stopped and slowly turned around, a beam of red light instantly being drawn from her body.
He then collapsed to the ground, completely unconscious.
"Hey, Li Qianwen! Are you alright?" In this desolate place, Zhou Jiayou panicked and hurriedly squatted down to shake the unconscious Li Qianwen.
"Holy crap, how did such bad luck find me?" He turned around to look for the two figures.
The two figures behind them had long since disappeared from sight; there were many bushes here, making visibility poor.
Zhou Jiayou can only pin his hopes on Si Jinyan, hoping that she is a person with a conscience.
An unknown force of attraction drew Zhou Jiayou towards it.
"Help!" Zhou Jiayou screamed in terror.
"Go ahead and scream, scream until your throat is hoarse, no one will come to save you." A faint voice came from all directions.
