Chapter 74
"Director, this daunting task is yours! I'll handle the on-set work," the assistant director said, sticking his head out of another car with a gloating expression.
The King himself is the director:?
No way! He painstakingly found out where to go see the gossip, and these people won't let him go?!
Ugh! He's going to cause trouble. He'll get angry at anyone who tries to stop him from having a piece of this gossip.
Before she could even get angry with anyone, they slammed the door shut, giving the director no chance to react. The driver floored the gas pedal and sped off, leaving the director with a mouthful of exhaust fumes.
He'll remember these people. Next time, he'd better get there early to enjoy the gossip, otherwise he won't even get a spot. They'll be devastated.
When Song Shiwei and his group arrived at Fengquan Mountain, Li Shulan and Zou Liang's car had just arrived as well.
Zou Liang had already secretly started a live stream in the car, with the title blatantly displaying "#LiveStreamSearchingForMyDaughter."
Last night, netizens who had already seen through this scoundrel were worried he wouldn't start the live stream. This guy is still insatiable; he walked at the back, carefully putting his phone in his shirt pocket, leaving only the camera lens showing.
"This is an extremely powerful master. I spent a lot of money to hire him. Today, he will use his ancestral secret method to help us find our daughter!"
His voice was very soft, just enough to get through the phone without the people in front of him noticing.
{Did they really find a master? Or have we misunderstood him?}
Brother, you're such a good father. If it were me, I would never look for her again. A daughter like that would be better off without.
{Ah, I heard that only highly skilled masters are qualified to wear this purple Daoist robe, right? That's a little-known fact I learned from Sister Song Gua's livestream.}
Could it be that this man genuinely loves his daughter? Were we wrong before? Was it a conspiracy theory?
The wealthy female netizens who remained silent while watching the variety show all had one question pop into their minds.
The man's actions certainly didn't seem to be what they had guessed.
Before their confusion could be resolved, an audience member excitedly said, "Hmm... verifying it is actually quite simple. Sister Song Gua's film crew is nearby. Let's have Sister Song Gua come over and see if she has any juicy gossip."
{LOL, sis, we're thinking the same thing! Where's Sister Song Gua?! Calling Sister Song Gua!}
{ Sister Song Gua, come quick, come quickly and let me check if these people have any gossip.}
I'll go to Sister Song Gua 'Sister Song Gua over. It seems she and her group have gotten lost; they're running in another direction.
The production team of "Let's Gossip Together" was indeed rushing off in another direction at this point, and they didn't respond when the onlookers were loudly reminding them.
What they had just heard Song Shiwei say was that the other side was full of vertical shafts, and one wrong step could turn it into a landmine, while the situation on the other side was completely different.
On the other side is a mountainous area where exotic melons are grown; there's absolutely no danger there.
They were originally in a hurry to go eat melons like kings, but upon hearing Song Shiwei's words, they quickly withdrew their eager feet and ran wildly in the other direction.
As they walked, they heard a scream, "Ah!"
[Wow! Which unlucky little bastard got caught?!] Song Shiwei inquisitive voice rang out.
Others:...
Luckily, they didn't act too stubbornly earlier, otherwise they would have really gotten themselves killed. They also wanted to know which unlucky little brat it was.
So they quickened their pace, eager to get there and see the play.
Before they had taken more than a few steps, another pitiful scream rang out, "Ah!"
The sound had barely faded when another ghostly wail followed, "Ah!"
The calls echoed throughout the southern woods, creating a truly chaotic scene. Song Shiwei listened, inwardly marveling, "Wow, another unlucky little rascal has fallen victim. This really is a game of whack-a-mole."
[Hilarious! How did they manage to fall into a shaft even with someone leading the way?]
Song Shiwei was puzzled, but after glancing at the Gossip Compendium, she realized, "[This old woman really did try to steal a chicken but lost her own rice instead. She actually remembered the wrong route into the mountains, mistaking the place with the well for the east. So yesterday she took the child to the east, and that's why the Xiaobao survived.]"
[They came in from the north today, but they walked straight into a minefield. This is truly her good fortune; she dug her own grave. She really deserves it.]
The bystanders nodded in agreement, thinking, "That old hag is really wicked; I never expected she'd get herself into this mess."
The viewers in the man's live stream blinked in disbelief as the people suddenly vanished one by one. "Where did they go? Where did these grown men go?"
It might be hard to believe, but they just watched helplessly as living, breathing people disappeared from their sight.
Just when they thought this master could really conjure up people, Song Shiwei and the others arrived from the south.
Of the original group of seven or eight people, only a pregnant woman and Zou Liang remain.
Seeing people approaching, they quickly cried out for help, "Help us! They've fallen into a well!"
After Zou Liang finished speaking, his eyes hardened, and he took a step forward before disappearing from everyone's sight with a bang.
Onlookers:?
Viewers in the live stream:?

Chapter 74
◎Karma really does come quickly.◎
While everyone was still in a daze, a fellow villager that the assistant director had hastily grabbed from the roadside said incredulously, "This whole area is full of shafts, how dare these people just swagger in like that?"
