Jiang Nuo, swaying back and forth with the ghost, said, "I'll give you a chance. What exactly is this attic for? What are you planning to do after luring tourists in?"
"I don't know... Ugh!"
The ghost had barely uttered its denial when Jiang Nuo yanked out a large clump of its hair, and a bone nail, seemingly from nowhere, was driven into its skull, unleashing a torrent of yang energy.
The extremely yin ghost could not bear such burning pain, and its screams continued incessantly.
She can't be stubborn at all.
I'll talk! I'll talk!
Just as the unlucky ghost was about to speak, it seemed to be suddenly stimulated by something, its whole body trembled, and then it uttered a string of words that no one could understand.
"I am entrusted by my people to repay their unique abilities. The moonlight shines on the third giant rock, where you will all rest in eternal rest."
Their voices all became deep and resonant.
These are not words he could possibly say.
Everyone turned to look at the statue that had been demolished.
Jiang Nuo: "Wow, it can still talk even when it's shattered like this."
As soon as he finished speaking, the ghostly energy roaming within the unlucky ghost was instantly drawn away.
Jiang Nuo released it just in time, watching it vanish into thin air.
I was still pondering the meaning of those words.
"The moonlight shines on the third megalith..."
I walked around the tribe's territory, and there were huge rocks everywhere, including in the woods.
Who knows which third boulder he was referring to?
Zhou Ling, who had woken up the three members of Team Yellow, patted her skirt and got up, just in time to see Lin Yu, who hadn't been there before, walk out.
Zhou Ling Lingbai's eyes flickered slightly. She took a few steps back, staring at Lin Yu's back, and the star chart in her hand began to spin again.
In Zhou Ling's eyes, the surrounding scenery faded rapidly, leaving only Lin Yu standing there.
She saw many lines, wispy black threads, emerging from Lin Yu's body, with something seemingly wrapped around their ends.
Zhou Ling took another step back, her high heels clattering on the wooden floor, revealing her inner turmoil, even shock.
The thing wrapped in black thread was clearly human-shaped.
If I remember correctly, this is where Su Hen just collapsed.
Zhou Ling used the magic of the celestial chart to try and see things more clearly.
But the moment she increased her strength, a pillar of black lines swept towards her.
Caught completely off guard, Zhou Ling was sent flying by the blow, a low gasp escaping her throat as she crashed into the wall, blood tears slowly streaming from her tightly closed eyes.
The commotion drew the attention of the group who were deep in thought.
"What's wrong with you?!"
Chu Xiu ran over to help Zhou Ling up, but when she saw that Zhou Ling was crying bloody tears, she gasped and didn't know how to wipe them with a tissue.
"... fine."
Zhou Ling's fingers were still trembling slightly as she touched the blood flowing from her eyes, as if she had already gotten used to it.
"Using too much magic causes this. Give me some paper."
Zhou Ling's panic lasted only a moment; she quickly regained her composure and didn't mention a word about what she had just seen.
It shouldn't be mentioned here, at least not here.
She had no doubt that Lin Yu's power could tear her apart in an instant; the attack just now was more like a warning.
It seems to have nothing to do with me right now, so it's best to stay out of trouble.
Lin Yu also came over, handing over a tissue with a worried expression. His eyes, which were turned away from the camera, flickered slightly, and he smiled.
Are you alright?
"... Yes, thank you for your help."
Even though he was somewhat wary, Zhou Ling showed no sign of it on his face and remained impatient with him.
[Oh no! What happened to this beautiful and stunning woman?! She looks seriously injured.]
Holy crap! I think I just watched a movie! A big-budget one at that... Is this even possible in real life?!
"Oh no! Look! The broken staircase has reconnected itself!"
[ Jiang Nuo is awesome, I'm exhausted from talking about it!! So amazing! He interrogated a ghost while dragging him around! Who else can do that?!]
Su Hen seems so tired... Is it just my imagination? He looks like all his yang energy has been drained.
[The capable ones are all breaking through the formation, and he's just lying on the ground. I thought he was just lazy... but now he looks like he's about to die.]
Didn't he throw away all the chains the tour guide gave him? What did he do that was different from everyone else?
(Peeking out) Did he not eat the lunch Jiang Nuo sold?
[Hahaha, what a hellish joke from upstairs!]
Perhaps the commenter didn't mean anything by it, but Jiang Nuo is embroiled in scandals, so it's inevitable that some of her flaws will be seized upon.
Immediately, a barrage of negative comments flooded the screen, focusing on Su Hen's condition and insisting that Jiang Nuo was behind it.
"That's how it is. Jiang Nuo suddenly started selling lunches and talismans out of the blue, and only Su Hen refused to buy them, which led to this situation."
[Those who know, know... With such thick fog, it's not hard to tamper with things, is it? Jiang Nuo's eccentricity isn't a recent phenomenon.]
"I'm speechless... Can we sue Jiang Nuo for intentional homicide? What's the difference between Su Hen and a walking corpse?"
Su Hen is truly pitiful. She finally managed to participate in a program, but because he refused to spend money, she got injured like this.
Jiang Nuo's reputation as a bully is pretty much cemented.
The haters kept saying they felt sorry for Su Hen, as if they had forgotten all his previous outrageous actions.
The Glutinous Rice and the unscrupulous people couldn't sit still.
The live stream instantly erupted into a battle between fans and critics, causing the already top-ten viewership to surge even further.
The number of viewers for a live stream that runs continuously can easily fluctuate, but this particular live stream was so captivating that there was no risk of it being banned.
In the control room, Chen Xianyu shook his head and sighed repeatedly as he watched the number of viewers soar, so excited that he forgot to eat his lunchbox.
"This is amazing! This is a milestone variety show in my directing career."
"Director, aren't you going to do anything about the comments?" The assistant director watched as the battle escalated, even extending to online attacks on Weibo.
"It's said that Hua Country was sponsored by Jiang Nuo, so it's not good for him to be smeared like this."
Chen Xianyu frowned and thought for a moment, then said, "Go, arrange for our best PR team to help him."
He touched his bald head and clicked his tongue, "I don't know what's wrong with Jiang Nuo's company. She's so famous, and they still can't get her a decent team."
They only uttered a few words of amazement before quickly becoming engrossed in the thrilling content of the live stream.
After the broken staircase was repaired, the guest group and the weakened trio from Team Yellow quickly went downstairs and left, this time without any hindrance.
As soon as the attic door opened, the two tour guides outside immediately ran over.
Upon seeing the number of people, both of them looked horrified and terrified.
What happened?! How come not a single person is missing?!
Da Qiang looked at Su Hen, his brows furrowed so deeply they could trap a fly.
Only this person has some special abilities, and he's chained up too. How could he possibly fight against... those things inside?
Not a single person was delivered today. How are they going to get through the night?!
"Brother Da Qiang."
Jiang Nuo silently walked up to Da Qiang and called out to him.
"W-What is it?!"
Da Qiang was still in shock. He glared at them impatiently, but he couldn't just ask them how they got out alive. He was incredibly frustrated.
