Chapter 125 (Catching Insects)

Everyone looked at Jing Cheng nervously, could it be that they have no chance of winning against this guy even their omnipotent Daoist Jing?

won't...

However, seeing Shang Jingcheng's unquestionable gaze, everyone felt cold, and their faces were filled with "really unexpected", "did I make a mistake", "my life is over", "it's going to be cold tonight"... The inner thoughts became more and more sad, and the atmosphere suddenly froze.

Director Zhao had a subtle expression on his face. He had seen Jing Cheng slay demons with his bare hands, and his ability to bring back the dead with one hand, which can be called resurrection.

Could it be that they were deliberately scaring them so that everyone would not dare to run around and avoid Yang Hong's accident?

Director Zhao, who consciously guessed the truth, calmed down, looked around the crowd calmly, and was taken aback by the almost condensed "frustration" on the faces of the others.

Director Zhao: "..." Is this a bit too much?

Only Qin Yan and Fu Le, who knew Jing Cheng well, were present, and they could feel the smell from Jing Cheng's sudden change of tone after a pause.

Thinking of his usual cunning, the two looked at each other, and they both saw what they were thinking in each other's eyes.

Cheng Zi, isn't he playing tricks?

Sure enough, at the next moment, Jing Cheng spoke.

Jing Cheng's original intention was to make everyone serious, not to be foolish about taking life seriously, and he was hiding a little bit of careful thinking about dealing with wild spirits.But I didn't expect that my half-truth and half-false threats would have such an effect. Just now, everyone was full of fighting spirit, why did they all become eggplants beaten by frost after a while?

Jing Cheng: Just kidding, why do you take it seriously?

He had no choice but to stop hiding, and sighed: "The mandrill ghost likes to devour the essence of people, but as far as I know, the objects it chooses to confuse are usually the elderly and children, and young people are rare."

Although Qin Yan has been silent all the time, he looks relaxed on the surface, but no one knows that he was feeling uneasy just now.Over the years, due to his physique, he has often been entangled by demons and ghosts.He was worried that Jing Cheng would be affected because of his physique, after all, this kind of thing had happened before in the ancient city.

Although since he knew Jing Cheng, the other party has always shown him a gesture of ease at any time, but there is no guarantee.

Hearing what Jing Cheng said, he couldn't help but look at him twice, as if he wanted to ask something, but worried that there were not only many people here but also a non-human existence, so he held back again.

Qin Yan: Dare to say that he is the safest one among the people present, who among these people can have his positive energy?

Jing Cheng maintained a serious face, took Qin Yan's hand while others were not paying attention, squeezed his fingers, and slowly drew a small circle in his palm, signaling him to be at ease.

Qin Yan: ...

Even in the middle of the night in the wild, Qin Yan's hands were still as hot as fire, and the touch of the back of his hand and the palm of his hand made him feel the warmth and coolness of the other's palm. Just this short touch made him feel a palpitation.

In my impression, Jing Cheng's hands are always icy and cold at any time, Qin Yan heard the other party talk about it, it's because of his yin constitution.

Qin Yan once saw this sentence in the pamphlet that Jing Cheng gave him——"Yin and Yang combine virtue, and hardness and softness have a body"①.

At that time, he didn't quite understand the meaning of this sentence, but now this sentence appeared in his mind without warning, thinking that his constitution is pure yang, while Jing Cheng has an extremely yin fate, and the combination of yin and yang is not a sign that the two of them are togetherIs it the destiny?

The temperature on Qin Yan's face that had just dropped just now turned into a cloud of fire (...).

Everyone else was immersed in the anxiety of being "death stared" by the mandrill, and no one noticed the slightly ambiguous behavior of these two people in private.

"But in Liao Zhai, don't those goblins just like young and strong young people? And isn't there a saying that ghosts and ghosts don't hurt human cubs?" Someone retorted with a TV series novel they had read before.

What's going on in your head?Jing Cheng said helplessly: "Real life is not Liao Zhai. Children are the most likely to be shocked. Young people are full of yang and have too many distracting thoughts, and their souls are not as pure as children. The old man's life is dying and his soul is weak. Simply putLet’s talk, it’s a good start.”

"Bullying the weak and fearing the strong is not a human patent, the law of the jungle is engraved in the instinct of all creatures."

Seeing the unbelievable expressions of "you're fucking kidding me" on everyone's faces, Jing Cheng looked around at everyone present, the youngest was already an adult, and the oldest was only in his early forties, all of them belonged to the "safe" range.

He added slowly, "As long as you don't commit Mercury retrograde recently, or you want to do something yourself, and wear the amulet, you shouldn't be so...unlucky."

"..."

Everyone was taken aback by Jing Cheng's "asking for more blessings", and then gasped in fright at the mandrill ghost's mysterious smile. Finally, Jing Cheng gasped and said, "With the amulet, nothing will happen.", so that their hearts went up and down like a roller coaster, and they had to make a sharp turn at the critical moment. Everyone gasped and stuck in their throats and never dared to come out. They almost suffocated to death.

For a while, there were coughing sounds one after another.

They looked at Jing Cheng accusingly, couldn't they finish the important words in one breath?

Jing Cheng said with an innocent face: I'm just expressing my thoughts, if you rush to death, I can't help it.

Holding amulets in their hands, everyone shook their heads wildly: They are not that idiot like Yang Hong, who can throw away life-saving things casually.

The mandrill ghost tilted his head to look at them, his human face showed a thoughtful expression, as if he was evaluating which of them was a good persimmon.

The people caught by its eyes suddenly stepped back cautiously. Although Jing Daochang explained that they were "safe", the other party's backlash made everyone not dare to relax their vigilance.

This might be Schrödinger's safety, who dares to let his guard down?

Non-my family, its heart must be different!

Since it is a man-eating beast, it must be worthy of its characteristics. There are so many of them and most of them are fierce young men.Not hungry?

Mosquitoes can mutate these days, don't fairies pay attention to keeping pace with the times?

In case the "legendary mountain ghost" had a brain twitch and wanted to challenge himself to change the recipe, the beast would catch them and eat them, and there would be nowhere to cry.

Someone began to pray: "Don't come to me, don't come to me, I have a girlfriend..."

Some people doubted: "No, this guy is not a vixen who knows how to seduce. How can he confuse people with such a shabby appearance? It's not like everyone has no eyes."

But he was immediately dismissed by the people around him, and he made a strong analysis: "Are you stupid? How can you, an ordinary mortal, understand this kind of non-scientific existence? When it really wants to confuse you, what you see is a charmingYou are a beautiful woman, at that time people will recruit small hands, and you will not be a fool..."

Someone began to be suspicious: "I have an idea. Why do you say it has a human face? Could this be the human being it had eaten? So many of us can't scare it away, could it be that one of us isIts target?"

The camera brother rubbed his face with his hands, took a deep breath and said: "Fuck, I had gallstones when I was young, but now I don't have the guts, so don't scare me!"

Director Zhao comforted him: "In the middle of the night, ghosts and ghosts are the most likely to appear in such deep mountains and old forests. It's not like we haven't seen them before. With Daoist Jing around, everyone will be able to live in peace, don't you think?"

As he spoke, he released a wink to Jing Cheng: Don't pretend, I understand everything!

Jing Cheng: "..." What do you know?

The words he just explained to everyone are not all deliberately sensational, at least "mandrill ghosts cannot be destroyed, they can only be driven away" without any adulteration.

The middle of the night is the most sleepy time of the day for human beings, and it is also the time when the human body's yang fire is the lowest.He asked everyone to get together to prevent the mandrill ghost from acting rashly, deliberately speaking harsh words to make everyone more vigilant, and also to prevent the mandrill ghost from confusing everyone by taking advantage of it.

Now it seems that it is quite effective.

Seeing the crowd huddled together, the mandrill ghost probably felt that he really had no way to attack them. After hesitating again and again, he only roared at them twice as if threatening, and quickly passed the crowd, jumped a few times in the jungle, and disappeared..

Everyone felt a blur in front of their eyes, and when they looked at it intently, the mandrill ghost disappeared.

Their tense nerves suddenly relaxed, and they all wiped the cold sweat from their foreheads.

Since participating in this program, I feel that I am walking on the tip of a knife every day, and my body and mind are in dire straits every day.

After a while, someone couldn't help asking in a low voice: "It... escaped?"

Jing Cheng didn't dare to relax, still holding the dagger in his hand, his eyes carefully glanced over the crowd, making sure that there was no more than one, and then he put away the dagger, and replied: "Probably, but there is no guarantee that it will come back again."

He looked back at Director Zhao and the others, and said, "Put the amulet on your chest and put it on. Since mandrill ghosts can appear in this area, there may be other spirits. Let's set off as soon as possible. It's safer to go to crowded places."

Director Zhao just confirmed with the camera brother that the camera was working safely throughout the whole process, and the mandrill ghost was photographed clearly from head to toe, and there was no "forced mosaic" supernatural scene.

Hearing this, he raised his head and waved his hands boldly: "It's okay, I'm wearing them all."

There was an indescribable excitement in his tone, as if everyone in the program group had turned into elementary school students going out with their teachers on an outing, showing childlike joy and innocent longing for the unknown environment.However, with Jing Cheng's "antique" mind, he couldn't think of these things, so he had to attribute the change of his attitude to "the faults of contemporary people".

The corner of Jing Cheng's mouth twitched: "Then let's go."

After experiencing such a thrilling scene, everyone was physically and mentally exhausted at this time, and they had no intention of making jokes along the way. They followed the direction given by the driver and continued to move forward with their luggage on their backs.

Camera Xiaoqu felt too quiet after walking for a while, and felt apprehensive. He was trying to find a topic to chat with his female colleague, but Clinker found that the female colleague was still standing there, facing one direction, in a daze.

Xiao Qu was a little confused, seeing that the large army was about to leave, he quickly walked back, patted the other party on the shoulder, and asked a question.

"Hey? Wang Ningning, what are you thinking, why don't you hurry up and leave."

There was no reaction on Wang Ningning's face, and she turned a blind eye to Xiaoqu. She seemed to be summoned by something, her eyes were fixed, and she slowly stretched out her hand in one direction.

Xiao Qu's scalp tingled when he saw it, and he thought that this girl is usually very courageous, and she likes to pretend to be a ghost to frighten people.Pretend like this, wanting to see him make a fool of himself.

Thinking of this, the expression on Xiao Qu's face was not very good-looking.

When is this, can you still make such a joke?

Mandrill ghosts appeared just now, can't you stop for a while?

"Hey, if you don't go, I'll go by myself." Xiao Qu frowned.

As he got closer to the other party, he could faintly smell a faint rusty smell from the tip of his nose. Before he could detect what it was, Wang Ningning suddenly moved.

Wang Ningning was still expressionless, but this time he didn't pretend to be deaf and dumb, and turned his head slowly to look at him.

This slow motion is like a zombie turning its head in a movie...it's so amazing!

Xiaoqu's hair stood on end, and the cold sweat on his forehead rushed out. He held back, and couldn't help but cursed: "I'm sick!"

He turned around and ran in the direction of the large army, never daring to look back.

...

The program team walked for more than an hour, the towering forest gradually receded, the tall trees on both sides were replaced by lush flowers and plants, and the dirt road under their feet turned into a slightly wider and flat country road.

The stars in the sky gradually faded, and a ray of sky light gradually rose from the east. The sky was almost bright, and only then did everyone see the houses in stretches.

A light mist enveloped the entire valley, the air was slightly cool and humid, the leaves were covered with crystal clear dewdrops, countless birds chirping one after another, crisp and sweet, and far away, the sound of gurgling streams and womenTalking and laughing like silver bells.

This kind of morning with a strong rural style made everyone feel refreshed and refreshed from the exhaustion of traveling all night.

"Phew—the air here is so good, it's suitable for the elderly." Director Zhao stretched his old waist, and let out a long breath.

The cameraman at the side smiled and said, "You are only in your early thirties, and you are in a hurry to retire? It is not too late to think about it after getting an international award at least."

Director Zhao also laughed: "There is no need for a grand prize. If you perform better, I can guarantee that our program will cause a national sensation after it is actually broadcast."

Looking around, apart from the camera brother with a tired face, and Jing Cheng who was standing with Qin Yan Fu Le and chatting together, Director Zhao looked at the three children next to him who stayed up all night and were still in good spirits.Can't help but envy and hate.

The young man's body is good, and he really wants to turn back to eighteen...

Director Zhao didn't dare to order these three, regardless of the youngest, he couldn't afford to offend any of them.I had no choice but to look left and right to find my younger brother: "Where is Xiaoqu? Go ahead and ask, where is the owner of the inn who sent us the location before, and find a local to lead the way."

After calling out and seeing no one, Director Zhao said in amazement, "Hey, where's the person?"

After tossing in the mountains for half a night, many people in the program team didn't have much rest for almost a day and a night. Everyone was very tired, and it was normal to be unresponsive.

After a long while, Xiao Qu came out of the crowd with a pale face, and answered in a dazed manner.

His expression was obviously not right, Director Zhao was full of doubts, but seeing that Xiao Qu had already walked away quickly, he could only press the button.

But with Jing Daochang around, what could happen?

The author has something to say:

No Responsibility Small Theater:

Director Zhao: You are so awesome, who doesn't know?

Jing Cheng: No matter how awesome you are, you can't stop someone from committing suicide.
