Chapter 9 Mom told you not to look back (9)
Why are you crying so easily?
Is the streamer... desperately needing love?
My dear daughter, come to Mommy's arms, Mommy loves you.
But seeing her like this, I almost cried too...
Hey, that's how it is; life is always full of hardships.
[Those who sell their lives here for money are all pitiful people with nowhere else to turn. Maybe she's never encountered any kindness before, and she can't bear even the slightest bit of kindness from others.]
This comment, like a needle, gently pierced through the clamor. The live stream fell into a brief silence, a complex emotion mixed with pity and understanding spreading silently.
Lin Chujiu hurriedly grabbed a tissue and wiped away the tears on her face with trembling fingertips.
She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself, and was about to pick up her pen again to fulfill the audience's request to draw exorcism talismans when her gaze was drawn to a connection request that suddenly popped up in the upper right corner of the screen—
[The host "Maoshan Top Disciple 19.0" requests to connect with you]
Lin Chujiu was stunned. A horror livestream...does it even have a PK-like function?
She had never experienced anything like this before and felt a little lost. Instinctively, she reached out her finger, wanting to click the conspicuous red "Reject" button.
However, perhaps due to the strong emotional fluctuations just now, my hand was still a little unsteady; or perhaps due to excessive tension, my fingertips veered slightly as they landed—
By some strange twist of fate, I clicked the "Accept" button next to it!
Almost at the same moment, an ID named "Hanyu" silently slipped into the viewer list of the live stream, like a ghost.
The screen instantly split in two. On the other side, the face of a middle-aged man with a stubble beard and fierce eyes appeared on the screen.
The middle-aged man, dressed as a Taoist priest, had a face full of fat and rashes. When he saw Lin Chujiu's beautiful face, he grinned lewdly.
Lin Chujiu felt physically uncomfortable watching it, but remembering that she was live-streaming, she managed to suppress the urge to vomit.
The man spoke first: "Little sister, are you a newcomer too?"
Lin Chujiu nodded. "Yes."
The man grinned lewdly again. "I'm new here too. I never expected to have such a connection with you, sister. Do you have a boyfriend, sister?"
What kind of fate is this?
Lin Chujiu couldn't help but frown, but she had seen many more disgusting scenes in the entertainment industry, so she managed to hold back her anger.
"No."
Lin Chujiu replied sparingly.
The attitude is obvious.
The man's laughter grew even more disgusting, and his beady eyes began to scan Lin Chujiu's entire body through the screen.
He spoke, revealing a set of teeth typical of a smoker, "Then I'll be your boyfriend, sister. My Taoist skills are unparalleled, and I can even protect you in the same instance, if you're willing..."
He didn't say the rest, but everyone understood.
Lin Chujiu could no longer bear it, so she turned to the live chat, which was filled with condemnations of the man.
Is this guy an idiot? Everyone knows that the Taoist arts from outside are completely useless in the horror world.
[How disgusting, it reminds me of my boss]
I was thinking of my clients.
[Hey, it looks just like that blobfish, and it's trying to covet our angelic beauty, Jiu Jiu.]
[The password is wrong, someone please pee on him to wake him up, but not a diabetic.]
[Hey upstairs, why don't you go up yourself?]
[Emm...no Jiba]
On the other side, Jiang Chaoyu paused slightly, his hand resting on the keyboard.
Lin Chujiu had experienced many such things in the entertainment industry, so she naturally understood the meaning behind men's words perfectly.
She looked at the man, her eyes filled with frost. "I don't need your protection. Let's not connect anymore."
The man's expression changed, and he said fiercely, "Don't be so stubborn! I am the chief disciple of Maoshan Sect. If you don't come with me, I don't know if you'll even live to see tomorrow morning!"
Bullet comments:
My native language is speechlessness.
[It's like he's saying the earth can't turn without him.]
Honestly, how many top disciples of Maoshan are there in the horror world now?
Hehehe, here comes another one looking for trouble, no, another con artist.
【Jiu Jiu, leave him here for a bit, you'll soon see him looking for shit】
Lin Chujiu's gaze swept over the comments, a barely perceptible glint of inspiration flashing in her eyes.
She suddenly changed her attitude, her voice becoming soft and sweet, carrying a hint of girlish innocence and curiosity: "You say you are the direct disciple of Maoshan? What can you say to prove it?"
The man's muscular face stiffened, clearly not expecting her to ask that, but seeing her soften her tone, he immediately became smug again, replying gruffly, "A Taoist certificate? I go out to catch ghosts and exorcise demons, who carries that thing around every day! But..."
He abruptly changed the subject, puffing out his belly in a boastful manner, "I can show you a real kung fu move right here!"
That was exactly what I wanted.
Lin Chujiu sneered inwardly, but immediately clasped her hands in front of her chest, widened her eyes, and put on an expectant and admiring look.
"Really? Can you catch one of these weirdos for me to see right now?" Lin Chujiu asked softly.
The man's smug expression froze.
Lin Chujiu keenly sensed his hesitation, and her voice instantly softened as she said, "Just show me how you catch one! I've never seen anyone else catch a ghost before. You'll look incredibly cool catching one!"
The soft, flattering words were like strong liquor, instantly making the man feel elated, and his vanity swelled to an extreme.
"Alright! Watch closely, I'll show you how to catch it with ease!"
He patted his chest and guaranteed it, his spittle practically splattering through the screen.
The viewers in the live stream realized what Lin Chujiu was planning to do and exclaimed in amazement:
[This streamer's seemingly gentle approach is actually quite deadly.]
I used to think Shiro was a fool, but now I want to be a fool too.
[Who would have thought that Jiu Jiu, who looks so gentle and weak, is actually the disciple of the arrogant concubine?]
[She's really good at using alcohol to seduce men.]
The man's background appears to be a long-abandoned amusement park, with rusty carousels amidst the broken walls and ruins, and a symbolic Ferris wheel suspended forlornly in mid-air, casting a distorted silhouette under the moonlight.
Beside the dilapidated ticket booth, an old, hunched-over eerie figure in worn-out employee uniform leaned against the wall, dozing with his head down, emanating a faint, decaying aura.
The man was overjoyed when he saw the strange old man.
He was initially worried about running into a tough opponent, but it turned out to be an old man on his deathbed, who was completely at his mercy.
It's truly heaven's help!
He roared, his fat jiggling violently with each leap. He clumsily drew the crudely made peach wood sword from his waist and charged forward menacingly: "Old man, prepare to die!"
The old man's droopy eyelids twitched slightly, but he ignored the man.
She went to sleep peacefully again.
The man was overjoyed and looked at the old monster with the peach wood sword—
Just as his sword was about to strike the old monster, the old monster's cloudy eyes suddenly opened!
His eyes showed surprise, but also a hint of bewilderment and displeasure at being disturbed from his peaceful dream, as he looked at the imposing fat man in front of him.
Although a hint of unease flashed through the man's mind, the arrow was already on the bowstring and had to be released!
He shouted to bolster his courage, and with a whoosh, the peach wood sword in his hand slashed fiercely at the old monster's shoulder!
However, the scene of evil spirits screaming and black smoke billowing up, as expected, did not appear.
A bizarre scene unfolded.
