Those Years I Employed Non-Humans as Actors

Chapter 26: Peach wood sword

Views:

A group of evil spirits dispersed with a hula, and pounced on the set like tigers coming out of their gates.

Zhong Jiudao is well aware of the temperament of his group of non-human actors, and it is impossible for them to stay on the set with little restraint. If they make any mistakes, they will run to the set next door to scare people.

In order to prevent these wild ghosts from running around, Zhong Jiudao took out a mahogany sword secretly hidden under his shirt and in his belt.

Each Zhong family has a peach wood sword of their own. They have planted peach wood with their own hands since they were young, and carefully taken care of it under the guidance of their elders. When they are eight years old, they choose a suitable peach tree branch, cut it, and carve it with their own hands. Carve the talisman formation you want to use most on your sword.

Generally, the Tianshi family will no longer use this method to make peach wood swords. It is time-consuming and laborious. The peach wood swords made by hand are not as smooth as those made by carpenters. If the handle is not smoothed, it will hurt the palm of the Celestial Master's hand. . Only the Zhong family has always followed this method. Back then, they reserved a hilltop to plant trees and developed a fruit wholesale business. The family made a lot of money every year just from selling peaches.

This is the persistence and romance of the Zhong family.

Zhong Jiudao has never denied his identity as a heavenly master, guarding the righteous and avoiding the evil, eliminating demons and defending the Tao. He has never forgotten this responsibility.

The reason why he works so hard is to prove to his family that family inheritance and dreams are not necessarily contradictory. Why can't the two coexist in today's Dharma-ending era

Zhong Jiudao told Qian Duoqun that he was just an excuse to repeat high school for three years. The real reason was that he went to high school three years late.

After graduating from junior high school, he spent three years studying hard and waited until he was eight years old to make his own mahogany sword and fulfill the romance that belonged to the Zhong family before retaking the high school entrance examination to become a high school student.

It's a pity that this mahogany sword, which Zhong Jiudao personally carved with countless talismans and formations, has never been unsheathed.

Zhong Jiudao silently calculated the size and shape of the entire set. During the day, he took advantage of the opportunity of being the director's assistant to figure out the topography of the set. Then he touched the ground with the tip of his sword and easily drew the topography map of the set on the ground.

The moon on ‌5 is ‌ six round, and the moonlight on July ‌6 is brighter than yesterday. Zhong Jiudao drew the talisman with his left hand, and held the sword to the sky with his right hand, attracting the spiritual energy of the stars and moon into the peach wood sword.

After sealing the spiritual energy into the sword, Zhong Jiudao held a sword flower in his hand and inserted the peach wood sword into the center of the set map. A majestic spiritual energy swayed from the peach wood sword and spread to the entire periphery of the set.

"Seal!" Zhong Jiudao scolded a sealing formula.

At this point, the entire set has been completely sealed, and neither the evil spirits in the villa nor the evil spirits hiding in the set can escape.

If there is a ghost who dares to disobey him, I am afraid he will suffer a lot.

"Ouch!" "Ouch!" "It hurts!"

Sure enough, after a few minutes, screams could be heard one after another from all around the studio. It seemed that there was someone who was determined to disobey Director Zhong's order and was controlled by the peripheral formation.

Zhong Jiudao walked a few steps and saw Shen Leshan clinging to the wall outside the set. The power on his body was being drained away by the formation.

"Director Zhong, help! I'm about to be saved by the formation!" Shen Leshan asked for help immediately when he saw Zhong Jiudao.

Zhong Jiu said: "This formation uses the aura of the moon as an energy shield. It will not absorb your resentment. At most, it will take away all the aura of the moon that I replenished you with yesterday. Don't worry, you won't be reincarnated."

Because Director Zhong was too irritable during the filming, a bunch of dead bodies were lying in the villa yesterday. He looked at Director Zhong with resentful eyes, and even his eyes ran from Qian Duo's room to Zhong Jiudao's feet. , eyes filled with disbelief, completely unable to imagine that Director Zhong is actually no different from Qian Duoqun, they are both capitalists squeezing the remaining value of Li Gui!

Zhong Jiudao found out that he had a rare conscience under such accusations. He took advantage of last night when the gate of ghosts was wide open to set up a spirit gathering array for them to help the ghosts regain their strength. This is how today's energetic ghost employees are formed.

However, Director Zhong's kindness belongs to the employees of ‌‌. Unruly employees like Shen Leshan will give back whatever power they get.

Zhong Jiudao ignored the ghosts stuck on the wall and continued to search for the whereabouts of the infant spirit on the set.

This infant spirit is a bit weird. If it were an ordinary ghost, Zhong Jiudao would be able to detect its whereabouts during the day and get rid of it while others are not paying attention. But this infant spirit seems to have a solid form and is scattered in every corner of the crew. If it weren't for Luo Huai's special nature, which could attract a lot of resentment from the infant spirit to himself, and then exorcise it with Zhong Jiudao's jewelry, the crew would have continued to cause trouble no matter how many more heavenly masters they found.

Zhong Jiudao walked to the clothing room and saw Fu Yue sitting there, looking at each piece of clothing carefully. The crew of this fairy tale drama has sufficient funds, and the costumes are all made by others. The embroidery on the clothes of several protagonists was embroidered stitch by stitch by the master, which is very expensive.

Fu Yue saw these clothes and commented: "Not counting the costumes of any dynasty, which incorporate the characteristics of each dynasty and the new era aesthetics, the clothes I made are still a bit lacking, and there is room for improvement."

Fu Yue, who is addicted to her profession, is no longer irritable, but has a kind of focused and paranoid beauty. Upon seeing this, Zhong Jiudao said: "Sooner or later, I will need a large number of costumes to make movies. When the company makes money, I will send you to learn new technologies and make better clothes."

"Really?" Fu Yue's eyes lit up.

"Is there anything that can save money?" Zhong Jiudao made a joke of his own.

Then he walked around the entire set and saw a man in a suit who was curious about the shooting equipment, Aunt Yang pointing at a large vacuum cleaner, and even though she was stuck to the wall, she was still trying her best to dig her head out. Look at Shen Leshan in the outside world.

There is only one heroine among the ghosts, Qi Wanlian.

Zhong Jiudao mobilized his magic power and sensed the whereabouts of the paper man, and then found Qi Wanlian. She was sitting quietly in the dressing room where the heroine was putting on makeup, and quietly looked at the person who could not capture her figure. Mirror.

She looked a little different from before. Zhong Jiudao intuitively noticed what she had discovered: "Have you sensed the whereabouts of Xie Sui?"

"It's not an evil spirit," Qi Wanlian said softly, "It's a child, a child who can be born."

With Qi Wanlian's reminder, Zhong Jiudao finally understood why he couldn't find Ying Ling's whereabouts. A child who dies as soon as he is born still has a deep understanding of himself, and his body must have a shape. Just because it is a child, it can hide in the body of any female actor in the crew and avoid the previous detection of Tianshi Zhong Jiudao.

"Did it follow an actress and leave the set?" Zhong Jiudao asked.

"Yes," Qi Wanlian shook her head, "It has an inexplicable hatred for this crew and will not leave without ruining the entire show."

Qi Wanlian seemed to understand this infant spirit very well, and her expression was no longer as calm as before, but revealed deep sadness.

"Director Zhong, what did you think when you asked me to play the role of mother and daughter?" Qi Wanlian, who has always been humble and courteous, her words at this moment were a bit harsh.

Zhong Jiudao was silent for a moment before saying: "The characters I create for each actor are based on his characteristics. You have two souls, and there is an unformed infant spirit that is always there for you. But it is too weak, and your obsession before death was too strong. After death, your resentment will swallow up the infant spirit. If the resentment does not disappear, the innocent infant spirit will never be able to survive. "

Qi Wanlian put her hand gently on her flat belly and said calmly: "I can hear the voice of a baby spirit. It is hidden in the mother's protection. Director Zhong cannot see it. "

Having said that, Qi Wanlian took out a cosmetic bag on the heroine's dressing table and opened it. There were some worthless hairpins, hair ropes and a hand-made ugly plush inside. piggy.

Upon seeing the stuffed pig, Zhong Jiudao instinctively drew a seal to prevent the baby spirit hiding in the pig from escaping again.

After sealing the piggy, Zhong Jiudao took the stuffed piggy, but saw that the piggy showed no resentment on its appearance. Even if it was held in his hands, it could escape the scrutiny of the eyes of heaven.

There is only one possibility for this situation to occur, which is that the infant spirit less than three months old is hidden in items related to the mother or in the mother's body, under the protection of the mother, so that no one can see it.

"An unborn infant spirit, especially a child under three months old, shouldn't have such strong resentment," Zhong Jiu said with a solemn expression, "Unless someone deliberately refines the infant spirit and deepens its resentment, then It became like this.”

"This seems to be the Celestial Master's method." Qi Wanlian asked.

It was precisely because of the Heavenly Master's method that Zhong Jiudao became even more angry. Throughout the ages, there have always been evil heavenly masters who used ghosts to cause harm to the world. And in the Age of Dharma Ending, some righteous Celestial Masters, because there are fewer evil ghosts in the world and the profession of Celestial Masters is weakening day by day, actually came up with the method of turning ordinary souls into powerful ghosts, thus deepening the general public's respect for Celestial Masters.

Since the infant spirit was found on the heroine's dressing table, it seems that the infant spirit mother is the heroine of this drama. Based on what the crew encountered, Zhong Jiudao quickly guessed the truth behind it.

This matter still cannot be separated from interests. It should be that the rival company of the crew did not want the TV series to be broadcast smoothly, so they resorted to evil ways.

The heroine who just happened to take on this drama was pregnant and had a miscarriage. She must have done this secretly, but anyone who wants to find out can find out. Someone obtained the baby's skeleton, refined it, and released it to look for the mother during filming, thus causing countless disasters.

The infant spirit is so innocent, it cannot be reborn, and yet it is used like this. If it really hurts people's lives and is implicated in the cause and effect, it will be even more difficult to be reincarnated.

Fortunately, Luo Huai came to the crew at the right time, because he absorbed most of Ying Ling's hatred, so both of them could avoid a catastrophe.

"Director Zhong, it is already a resentful spirit. Because it does not understand the world, its obsession is deeper than that of ordinary ghosts, and it is impossible to save it. Do you want to drive it away?" Qi Wanlian asked.

"Stay with me and spend more time, and the resentment of the past eight years will eventually dissipate." Zhong Jiudao said.

"Let it fly away, it will make the caster fight back, and it can also teach the heavenly master who is secretly causing trouble." Qi Wanlian seemed to persuade Zhong Jiudao to release the soul of the infant.

"No need to bother," Zhong Jiudao said, "find someone to check with the crew and the company, and then ask people from the Tianshi world to help find out who has money with the company recently. , you can find out who has done such outrageous things. In the second and first centuries, there is a technology called criminal investigation."

Qi Wanlian smiled: "I'm out of date. Director Zhong, please give me the baby spirit. I can absorb its resentment, which can enhance its strength and help it move forward. It's the best of both worlds." We Li Gui are more skilled at doing things than Heavenly Masters."

Zhong Jiudao handed the Yingling pig to Qi Wanlian. Qi Wanlian touched the pig's head and gently pressed her nose against the pig's nose.

A terrible resentment entered Qi Wanlian's body. Zhong Jiudao saw that her beautiful face had veins popping out, and black resentment surged under the blood vessels, making her face become extremely terrifying.

Absorbing resentment is not as simple as Qi Wanlian said. The devouring between evil spirits is either your death or mine. It is difficult for Qi Wanlian to protect the infant spirit and draw away the resentment. If he is not careful, he will Will be counterattacked by the infant spirit.

Zhong Jiudao raised his peach wood sword and pointed the tip of the sword on the pig doll. He suppressed Ying Ling's resistance, and Qi Wanlian successfully absorbed the resentment.

There seemed to be countless black snakes surging under her pale skin, making her face extremely painful. It seemed that there was the flesh and blood of the Heavenly Master in it, which suppressed evil and helped her successfully suppress the resentment of the infant spirit.

After a while, Qi Wanlian opened her eyes, and a dim light flashed in front of her eyes, showing that she had become stronger. Zhong Jiudao observed her behavior and realized that this evil ghost would look like a living person even when walking during the day. He didn't know whether this was good or bad.

"Director Zhong, before the baby is saved, I want to send it to meet its mother." Qi Wanlian said while holding the piglet.

"Okay." Zhong Jiudao put away the peach wood sword, and the formation outside the set also dissipated. At the same time, three or two paper figures were driven by the spiritual energy and flew to Zhong Jiudao.

As usual, Zhong Jiudao stuffed his portable company into his wallet and took Qi Wanlian to the hotel where Luo Huai was staying.

The piglet in Qi Wanlian's hand has its own guide and can lead her to her mother's room. She disappeared in a flash, leaving Zhong Jiudao standing alone in front of the elevator.

‌‌The only way to check in at the hotel is to take the elevator upstairs. Zhong Jiudao couldn't let Qi Wanlian be such a devil ‌ running around the hotel, busy ‌Luo Huai called, saying that he had checked out and moved here .

Luo Huai, who was about to fall asleep, put on some clothes and went downstairs to pick up Director Zhong. Now that he was famous, there were no paparazzi to take photos of him, and he could move freely.

He happily took Zhong Jiudao upstairs: "My accommodation conditions are very good. They arranged the room for me according to the standards of the previous actor. It is a suite, with a big bed inside and a double bed outside. There is a small bed. When the time comes, Director Zhong, you will live inside and I will live outside.”

Luo Huai lived on the same floor as the heroine, so he monitored Qi Wanlian's actions. Zhong Jiu agreed despite his resistance.
