Chapter 171: [Heart Demon]
It's not the same!
It's not at all!
The woman in front of me is no longer the same woman she used to be!
When that figure came to the front at a speed that he couldn't even catch his eyes, easily clasped his neck, and lifted himself up, Huang Xian actually realized what kind of existence he had provoked.
'How is that possible? β
How can there be such a presence among human beings in this day and age? β
'SΓ©ance, what a remnant of an old era. β
Huang Xian's whole body was stiff, and his dark eyes were staring at the woman in front of him with a kind face.
As a spirit creature who has spent a long time, her mind has long since left the realm of animals and has the wisdom of a human.
Even, she didn't live in the mountains all the time.
Once, Huang Xian also walked out of the mountains and went to cities where humans gathered more prosperously.
She had seen other special beings, whether they were the same spirit creatures or people.
And as the most common sΓ©ance among the Tang people, Huang Xian has certainly seen it.
It's just that what she sees is also the rituals and utensils that have been eroded over a long period of time and gradually weakened from the old era to the new era, those that have been inherited as 'beggar boys', 'spirit children', 'catching dead ghosts', and 'divine beating'...... The people who are skilled are invited to be extremely faint and vague spirits.
Lack of consciousness, low ability to exorcise evil spirits, and unclear usage......
Those spirits have all sorts of problems.
In the new era of development based on 'science', special groups like oneself are slowly weakening, disappearing, and forgetting.
But in front of him, the spirit invited from this woman's body was so clear.
It's like...... It's the same as it really is!
"But even if you say no, I can't tell the truth from the fake." After asking, 'Yu Wenxiu' asked and answered to himself, "Sure enough, it would be better to ask a professional person to confirm professional things." β
As she spoke, she carried the yellow fairy with one hand and took it on her body with the other.
Soon, she took out her phone.
After leaving the area shrouded in darkness, the signal had been restored.
"Squeak!"
After 'Yu Wenxiu' asked and answered himself, that strong sense of crisis disappeared.
Huang Xian squeaked again.
She tried to have a conversation.
'Yu Wenxiu' looked at him helplessly, "Shhh......hhh
"Please let me call first, Grandma Huang? This title feels good. β
"Hello."
While Huang Xian was quiet, the phone in his hand had already been connected.
A mature man's voice came out of the phone, rather tired in tone.
"Dao Chief, isn't the matter in Xiangcheng over yet?"
'Yu Wenxiu' asked strangely.
Of course, she didn't call Liu Baoning, although she said that with Ning Ning's spiritual pupil to directly distinguish the position from the breath, it might be more direct.
But direct doesn't mean good.
It's like Liang Meijuan has an evil aura that makes Xiao Zhongyong and Guanshan Dao people dislike, but in fact, Lu Zhengyi doesn't think she did anything wrong in the end.
At least from the perspective of Liang Le's son, a mountain that was originally pressed on his body disappeared all of a sudden.
It is a great change for the rest of my life.
But from the standpoint of stability, she used her ability to kill people, which was wrong.
Judging the position, in addition to the result, the process is also very important.
ββ¦β¦ Ah, well, it hasn't been resolved yet. β
The voice of the Guanshan Daoist was quiet for a while, and then he said vaguely, "So Teacher Yu, do you have something to do with me?" β
"Ah, by the way, I'm Yu Wenxiu now."
'Yu Wenxiu' held the mobile phone, and his voice couldn't help but smile, "It's me, it's me, Dao Chief, Lu Zhengyi." β
Guanshan Dao Chief: "......"
Across the mobile phone, across the distance, Lu Zhengyi could feel that on the other end of the phone, the head of the mountain view was at a loss.
ββ¦β¦ Huh? β
For a long time, he made a voice of unknown significance.
"Superfluous explanations, let's talk about them later."
Lu Zhengyi glanced at Huang Xian, who was motionless in his hand and was staring at him, just like a doll, "Teacher Yu is in a bit of a situation now, in the area on the edge of Dongcheng...... What is the name of this mountain? It seems that there is no name. β
"All in all, I met a yellow fairy here, it seems that because I bumped into this old woman and provoked her, I was left behind, along with a whole crew."
"Now it's convenient for you to contact your people and come over to find out the situation? Or do I just dispose of it? β
So to speak.
The yellow immortal in his hand shouted a few times again, but this time it was not towards him, but towards the mobile phone.
"Huang Xian...... White hair? β
On the phone, the tone of the mountain master became cautious and asked.
"Aang, white hair."
Lu Zhengyi shook it, "From her words, I feel that this guy is not young, and he has so many grandchildren waiting for him." β
ββ¦β¦ That's Grandma Huang! β
The voice of the mountain master raised, "You actually ......"
Can you even handle this old thing?
Xiangcheng,
In a deep forest with dense trees, the mountain watcher is leaning against a tree.
In the distance, people in white isolation suits and wrapped themselves tightly were checking around, hundreds of people.
Most of them are ordinary people without spirituality.
There are only a few that have a special aura on their bodies.
Perhaps, I should rejudge the level of Lu Zhengyi. β
At this moment, there was an unconcealable surprise on the faces of the people who watched the mountain.
"What, do you actually know each other?"
On the phone, the guy's voice came out.
Although it is said that Yu Wenxiu's voice is being used to talk, in terms of tone, he is still as calm as ever.
I didn't slow down in the slightest because I was facing this kind of old guy.
"Of course, Mrs. Huang is a very senior senior."
The Guanshan Taoist wiped the sweat on his head with his cuffs, "Although I haven't seen it with my own eyes, I have heard it from my master's mouth, and many classics in the temple are also recorded. β
"She's been around for at least two hundred years! Mrs. Huang is a very experienced and knowledgeable spiritual creature, and she will not easily attack humans. Even if you make a move, at most, you will have a playful attitude and will not hurt anyone. β
"Once, she also helped clear out a lot of evil things hiding in the mountains, and she was a very famous immortal family in that area of Dongcheng. So, is she next to you now? β
Lu Zhengyi's voice paused, a little embarrassed, "Hmm...... Almost, next to me. β
Although the Guanshan Daoist felt that the other party's tone was a little strange, he didn't think much about it, "All in all, try to settle it peacefully with her, after the old man is old, he likes to play with his childlike innocence, and he understands and understands." β
Especially the spirits like Grandma Huang.
As long as they don't hurt people, but just tease, their tolerance is still quite high.
After all, the existence of spiritual objects is becoming more and more rare in the current era......
Wrong.
Thinking of this, the mountain watcher suddenly paused.
Is it rare?
As far as the current situation is concerned, there are a lot of things that have happened to Lu Zhengyi.
Things that are difficult for ordinary people to touch in their lives, that guy doesn't know why, he keeps encountering them.
Even in addition to himself, the people around him seem to have been affected.
"If that's the case, then I'll settle it peacefully." Lu Zhengyi's reply sounded in the mobile phone, "But this time the incident involved a lot of people, and the entire crew is now frightened." β
"I don't know what to do with the aftermath."
"You have been able to hide the truth for so many years, you should ...... Is there a special way? β
Guanshan Daoren's face became helpless, "I know, I know, we will be responsible for the aftermath." β
"Grandma Huang, I hope you don't embarrass her too much, she still did a lot of good things in Dongcheng."
"In addition, there is also the matter of Yu Wenxiu, remember to explain to me later, why you can get on her."
Can't be, you're really an immortal, right?
The guy who has been telling himself before, 'Immortals don't exist', 'It's impossible to cultivate immortals', and 'This is too mysterious', has the result been infinitely close to that level?
Thinking of this, the hand of the Taoist who watched the mountain couldn't help but tighten his hand holding the mobile phone.
"Okay, then let's do it first, I still have something to do here."
He resisted the thought in his heart and hung up the phone.
When talking to this guy, I can't suppress the emotions and thoughts that come out of my heart.
Maybe this guy will become his own demon.
"Lookout."
At this time, a person in an isolation suit hurriedly walked over in the distance, and through the mask, he reported directly to the people of Guanshan Dao, "It can basically be confirmed that the previous rainstorm in Xiangcheng is related to it, but I am not sure whether it was intentional or unintentional." β
"Judging from some of the traces left by its movement, it is extremely large, but it has not caused any substantial damage to the surrounding environment, and it seems to be intentional protection."
"Now it's gone, this time it's really gone."
The mountain watcher put his mobile phone back in his pocket and refocused on the work in front of him, "In this way, it can be defined as a spiritual object within the stable line for the time being. β
It is the nature of some natural creatures to be huge, but they do not wantonly destroy the mountains and forests in the process of moving.
They are born in nature, and they are also a 'protector' of nature, and occasionally give back to nature, affecting the soil, water, grass and trees in some areas...... of growth.
Even the heavy rain in Xiangcheng has a great impact on people's clothing, food, housing and transportation.
But that's for people.
Of course, if they have hostile thoughts towards people for the sake of the natural environment, and deliberately carry out a large-scale impact, they will also be judged to be the objects that need to be removed.
Although it's cruel.
But it's the right thing to do.
"By the way, notify the people over there in Dongcheng and go into the mountains to find a crew."
Speaking of this, the mountain view Taoist seemed to remember something, and hurriedly said.
I almost forgot, there is also Yu Wenxiu's crew.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
"Ha, Teacher Yu really understands a very special ability."
JIANG Cheng,
LIANG Xi,
Late at night, in a single room in a hotel,
Lu Zhengyi sat on a wooden chair by the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the city below, while helping Xiao Zhongyong smooth the cat's hair.
"Meow?"
Xiao Zhongyong's cat face was a little puzzled.
"Probably the same power as the upper body of the gods."
Lu Zhengyi explained, "The next time you have a chance, you can let Teacher Yu try to analyze and play you." β
"If you can make a connection, you might be able to become a cat fairy."
"Speaking of which, I have occasionally heard of yellow fairies, fox fairies, and gray fairies, but I have never heard of cat fairies."
And if you think about it, that white-haired weasel seems to be quite cute.
For others, though, it's scary.
Xiao Zhongyong listened to these titles, and suddenly came to his senses, "Meow! β
"I can't eat it."
Lu Zhengyi pressed the cat's head he raised, "Speaking of which, these seem to be in your recipe." β
As they spent more and more time with Xiao Zhongyong, the way they talked between them slowly changed from speculation to habitual conversations.
It's not that I can really understand cat language.
It's just that I can understand what he says.
"And after you have a spirit, you should be in the same category, right?"
Speaking of this, Lu Zhengyi thought of the yellow immortal who should have existed longer than Xiao Zhongyong, "She also seems to feel ashamed of her characteristics as a weasel, and she will also feel ashamed when she is said to like to fart." β
"Compared to your other categories, cats, ferrets. You may have been in contact with people a lot, more like people, about ideas or something. β
"Wouldn't it be strange if you used each other as food?"
Xiao Zhongyong's cat face was a little dull, as if he was pondering this question.
He probably hasn't seen anything like his own.
It's not a cat, it's a spiritual animal.
"It's past ten o'clock, it's almost time to go to bed, there's a lot going on today."
Lu Zhengyi yawned, took a plane to Zhang Yu's house in the morning to see a doctor, and shifted his consciousness in the afternoon to help Yu Wenxiu solve the dilemma.
And tomorrow, after he goes to visit Liang Le's situation, he should not stay long, and he will return to the northern capital on the same day.
"Bell bellβ"
But just as Lu Zhengyi was about to get up and walk towards the bed, the mobile phone on the round table in front of him rang.
Different from the usual mobile phone ringtone, people can hear it and know who the contact is.
"Good evening."
Lu Zhengyi sat down again and picked up the phone, "Haven't you rested yet?" β
"Ahh......h For preparations for the proclamation of the first commandment began. β
Zhang Xueming's voice sounded from the mobile phone, accompanied by the sound of keyboard and mouse.
It sounds like I'm working on the phone again.
"Well, in fact, this film shouldn't need to be promoted as much as before, and I'm very confident in it."
Lu Zhengyi replied that although the finished film has not yet been cut, it will generally be warmed up after the film is completed.
Sometimes, it's not that people don't like a movie when it comes out, it's that they really don't see the news.
Maybe the time of publicity was too busy, or maybe there was something to miss.
By the time the news is known, the popularity of the film may have passed, and it may even be released.
And it may take up to several months for a movie to go from completion to post-production to review and release.
Therefore, it is very necessary to carry out warm-up publicity in batches in these months, which will attract people's attention to a greater extent, and at least leave an impression that this film may be released next month or next month.
When the time comes, they will naturally remember.
"Eh, are you so confident?"
Zhang Xueming was a little surprised.
In the past few works, although Lu Zhengyi also has confidence in quality, he has never underestimated the propaganda work.
He knows very sensibly that no matter how good a work is, if others don't even know the news of this work, then no matter how good the work itself is, there won't be too many people who appreciate it.
Even if there is, it will take a long time to test the tap water publicity.
"After all, I'm not the kind of nobody now."
Lu Zhengyi explained, "And there are so many people helping me publicize, aren't they? β
He didn't say it directly, but both knew what it was.
Those who intend to step on him to the top.
"Yes."
Zhang Xueming smiled over there, "Since I want to step on you to get on the throne, become a ...... A rookie in the horror film market, it is inevitable to mention it when promoting. β
"The audience fans you get with your crew's films should not be affected by those bought marketing tweets, but will get the news that your new film is about to be released because of their news."
"It's really a free publicity."
As for the quality, it really surpasses Lu Zhengyi in terms of the quality of the film.
From the track, the front took the first place.
It's impossible.
Both are confident.
This self-confidence is not based on arrogant emotions, but on the efforts of everyone in the crew, Wang Xiaoxu's ability, and excellent scripts.
"Speaking of which, I actually want to tell you something when I look for you today."
Zhang Xueming's smile was slightly restrained, a little unnatural, "Tomorrow, our group will go to negotiate with the theater party about work matters." β
"But not a formal work occasion, but a cocktail party."
"The organizer of the reception is the theater chain, and in addition to us, people from other entertainment and media companies will be present."
The more important contracts are basically negotiated in non-working situations.
And the formal occasion is actually the final part of the signing.
"yes......"
Lu Zhengyi replied blankly.
But soon, he realized what the other party wanted to convey in his words, and a smile appeared on his face.
"My words, I'm here in Liangxi today, and I'm going to visit Xiaole tomorrow morning."
"After the end, it should be the plane back to the northern capital at noon."
"If you can arrive in time for the evening, do you need me to pick you up?"
Lu Zhengyi was a little surprised, it was Zhang Xueming who thought of this first.
If the relationship between the two wants to get closer, it is very necessary to enter the other person's private life from work.
What she said just now was not to imply that she came to pick me up, but to share the itinerary.
In addition to business, if it is a more intimate relationship, even if it is a boyfriend or girlfriend, where and when do you go to attend some crowded events, or go alone to meet someone of the opposite sex...... These are all things that can be reported to avoid becoming bombs between each other.
What's more, Lu Zhengyi and Zhang Xueming want to become a more intimate husband and wife than boyfriend and girlfriend.
He hadn't thought about this before, and he was a little negligent.
"If it's convenient."
Zhang Xueming quickly replied, "After it's over, it should be night." β
"I'll send you the location first, and when you get off the plane, send me a message."
"If the timing goes well, I need you to come and pick me up."
Her tone was visibly relaxed.
Lu Zhengyi can clearly feel through his mobile phone that the other party has a feeling that after trying, he finds that it is not very difficult.
It can be seen that she is actually changing.
In order to better manage the 'marriage' of this cooperation.
"Okay, I'll send you a message when it's time."
Lu Zhengyi replied.
But the conversation between the two never ended.
Often is the work of the film about the First Commandment.
But in addition to the previous work, now there are occasional things in life.
For example, does Zhang Xueming have any old books in his collection, how is the other party's body when I went to see Zhang Yu today, and Wang Xiaoxu's situation......
It's rambling, but in fact, there aren't many topics in life.
Both of them are workaholics, and their days are almost filled with work.
So it's not so much that it's not so much to say, or rather, there's not so much to say.
"That's it."
In the light and shadow media, in the office, Zhang Xueming hung up the phone.
In front of me, the time in the lower right corner of the computer screen has reached more than eleven o'clock unconsciously.
As for the working documents, they are still the same as they were more than an hour ago.
Although in the process of this small talk, she would tap on the keyboard from time to time, but in fact, the content of the typing would be quickly eliminated after she came back to her senses.
"Well, let's get here for now."
Zhang Xueming sighed, reluctantly turned off the computer, stood up and cleaned up the table.
If it was usual, if the work task set for today was not completed, she would not choose to leave work.
But today is different.
Hurriedly packed up the desktop, picked up the bag on the chair, Zhang Xueming walked out of the office quickly, clocked in, and got off work.
Until you come to the underground parking lot, start the car, and drive off the road.
Her face was serious all the time.
Since she proposed the idea of marriage to Lu Zhengyi, until now, her perception has been good.
The other party is more rational than he imagined, and puts forward many ideas that he has not considered.
This made Zhang Xueming more confident in this marriage.
And while she has confidence, she also made a decision today.
'Smack. β
I unlocked the door and walked into the house, and there was no light in the dark living room.
But when Zhang Xueming turned on the light, there were actually people in the living room.
A man and a woman were sitting on the sofa with the same serious faces, as if waiting for something.
"Sure enough......"
Zhang Xueming's face showed helplessness, "Obviously I have already said that it is okay to talk about it tomorrow when we have breakfast." β
"It's getting late, why don't you rest first."
It was her father, Zhang Chuanxing.
Mother, Hu Chan.
"My daughter, who has been raised for almost 30 years and has never had any interest in falling in love or getting married, suddenly told me that I am getting married, do you think I can sleep?"
Zhang Chuanxing asked with a calm face, "And it's still the way to notify." β
Next to him, his wife Hu Chan also had a very bad face, "Mingming, you did something wrong in this matter." β
"I'm sorry, Mom. From a normal point of view, I was indeed wrong, and I apologize. β
Zhang Xueming's face remained unchanged, and while wearing slippers, she replied, "According to the normal situation, I should have made a boyfriend, and then tell you." β
"In this process, you may test him, and then we will go through a long period of time, and finally tell you the news of our decision to get married."
"But actually, it was a decision that occurred to me out of the blue."
Hu Chan's eyes widened, "You still engage in flash marriage?!" β
What kind of person did the daughter who has been raised for 30 years and always keep her sanity meet to suddenly become a love brain and decide to marry someone else?
"Tell me why."
But as a father, Zhang Chuanxing was stunned for a moment, and thought of something, "If it was a sudden decision, could it be said that it was Lu Zhengyi?" Marriages for business reasons. β
His face softened slightly.
"Huh?"
Hu Chan, who was still staring at her daughter, was stunned, and turned her head to look at her husband blankly.
What do you mean.
A family of three, the surname Zhang knows, but I don't know the surname Hu.
Who is Lu Zhengyi?
ββ¦β¦ Your daughter, don't you understand? β
Zhang Chuanxing quickly explained to his wife's gaze out of reaction to the danger, "If it's a boyfriend who has been hiding from us for a long time and is secretly looking for it, it's okay." β
"But do you think this kind of sudden flash marriage will happen to your daughter?"
As he spoke, he paused and looked at Zhang Xueming, who was sitting next to him, "You basically don't have anything else to do except go to work every day." β
"In this way, the only person you have a good impression of at work should be Lu Zhengyi, right?"
"I remember that you had a good relationship with him, and you also offered to help him promote the film overseas."
Zhang Xueming sat upright and nodded, "Yes, out of the idea of cooperation and marriage." β
"I think being married to him will help our company. Recently, you may have noticed that the company's position in the circle has gradually decreased after changing its operational strategy. Because our focus is biased towards bloggers, long videos, and short videos, rather than actors, movies, TV series, variety shows, ......"
"But now I'm telling you, it's a bit of a relationship, like this kind of company matter, I didn't actually bring it up at the company's meeting, but reported to you privately."
Zhang Chuanxing waved his hand and replied with a somewhat depressed expression:
"You don't have to be so regular, Xue Ming."
"I'm aware of what you're talking about. To be honest, if you can marry Lu Zhengyi, of course, you are telling other people in the circle that we have not given up movies and TV series...... Cooperation in these directions only adds additional development strategies. β
"I also understand his situation, if there is light and shadow as a guarantor, I believe that those who want to invest in his films, but can't accept the conditions he proposed, should also be able to accept it."
It's a win-win.
But......
Feeling the danger beside him rise again, Zhang Chuanxing hurriedly changed his words, "But how do you feel about him?" β
"Getting married is not a trivial matter, Xue Ming. This is a matter of your future life, as the saying goes, men are afraid of entering the wrong business, and women are afraid of marrying the wrong man. β
"It's hard to say whether your kind of cooperation for the purpose of marriage can be sustained in the future. As a father, I would like you to think about this carefully. β
As he spoke, he paused, "Of course, your mother is the same. β
"Let's light and shadow, in fact, strive for more or something, I don't have any ideas. It would be nice if we could operate normally and maintain stable revenues. We are the only one in our family, as long as you can have a happy life in the future, your parents will be relieved. β
"Dad, Mom......"
Zhang Xueming had a hesitation on her face, "How can I say it, he is actually, actually quite good." β
"I mean, he's sensible, he's responsible, and he seems secure."
"Even if you don't think about marriage and think about living on the premise, I think he is a very reliable candidate."
Being able to come up with so many ideas, so many considerations, rather than just saying yes in the swoop.
When it comes to getting married, you can 'think about the rest of your life', rather than deliberately avoiding the various responsibilities that should be borne after making a choice.
In this case, Lu Zhengyi is a good candidate to live together.
Even if they are really not suitable in the future, they can end relatively peacefully.
It's not that everyone is stiff.
Zhang Chuanxing and Hu Chan were stunned for a moment.
It was the first time they had heard Zhang Xueming talk about a boy so bluntly.
In the past, they did not find a partner for their daughter, and the answers they got were basically Zhang Xueming's evaluation of other people's shortcomings.
And if I insist on asking a little, I can only get 'quite good', 'very sunny', 'very good at talking', 'very honest' from my daughter's mouth...... Such scenes are basically over.
But the evaluation of 'very reliable' is a little different.
"So, what about the downsides?"
Zhang Chuanxing couldn't help but ask.
"Downside......
Zhang Xueming's face was full of embarrassment.
To be honest, she barely saw any shortcomings in Lu Zhengyi.
This guy is obviously three or four years younger than himself, but everything is done in an orderly manner.
"If you have to say something, some things are always in the clouds."
Zhang Xueming thought about it for a while before she made such an evaluation under the complicated expressions of her parents.
Yes, whenever she asked about the supernatural, he always explained it in a more tactful, suggestive way like a riddler.
There were only two people, but he still didn't want to say it directly.
ββ¦β¦ Cough. β
Zhang Chuanxing paused, and after a while, he said suddenly, "This is not a simple shortcoming, Xue Ming. β
"The words are in the clouds, which shows that this kid is very good at fooling people and acting."
"As a director, if Lu Zhengyi wants to package a very perfect image in front of you, it's possible, right?"
How can there be a man whose daughter can't find faults?
You know, even his own father is occasionally disliked because of cronyism.
