MTL - I Became Popular in the Underworld After Live Broadcasting Taoism-Chapter 77
When Gu Zhisang bluntly stated that he could not figure out the exact location of Zheng Xiaoyan, the thing that fans of 'Mulberry Leaf' were most worried about happened.
Many sunspots who have been lurking for a long time and netizens who have made Gu Zhisang a myth think that she has overturned this time.
[Is this the strongest mystic master? I can't even find anyone. Those brainless fans were bragging too much before, but now they are slapped in the face. 】
[The public relations company didn't buy the script this time, and I didn't see that Zheng Xiaona is a national-level athlete, so she definitely wouldn't cooperate with the hype of a certain actress. 】
【I'm a little disappointed, I feel that Gu Zhisang is not as good as he is on the Internet...】
But more are rational passers-by:
[The audience was suppressed every time before, you said she was too young to be so powerful, it must be a script show;
Now she has some problems, and she started to mock her for not being so good. You guys have said all the good and bad things. 】
[The requirement for others is that they have a specialization in the art field, and if they pass 60 points, Sangsang must get 200 points. It's really funny, love it or not! 】
[He Mitu's abstention itself means that this matter is difficult. 】
[Some people take it for granted, this incident itself is not a purely metaphysical incident, it is normal to not find it. If fortune-telling can bring back lost children, why are there so many lost parents struggling to find them? 】
【…】
Gu Zhisang didn't know that there was a quarrel in the studio because of him.
Even if she knew, she didn't think she was incapable of finding Zheng Xiaoyan who disappeared more than 20 years ago.
The reason why he couldn't do anything was because of the special magnetic field and weird aura of this wide mountainous area.
Gu Zhisang wanted to look at the physiognomy, but found that as long as the relevant information of the person 'Zheng Xiaoyan' was touched, the faces of the three members of the Zheng family would be covered with a layer of black mist.
She wanted to recall the 'Wen Tian Gua', but found that the power of heaven and Tao law disappeared out of thin air, and she couldn't feel it at all.
This is a real 'land outside the law'.
At a certain moment, the feeling here was exactly the same as when she was plotted against in her previous life, and when she was suppressed not long ago.
The power that suppressed and framed her invisibly came again.
And it was only aimed at her, the other contestants didn't feel the same way.
Xun Yiqing and Xi Haihong are both Taoist sects, but they didn't find anything abnormal.
The only one who feels a little bit is He Mitu.
Gu Zhisang didn't know how this force had anything to do with the disappearance of 'Zheng Xiaoyan', but she was mobilized 12 percent out of her original three-point curiosity and enthusiasm for this case.
She felt that if she could break through the confusion and find Zheng Xiaoyan, she should be able to know what the black mist that even the underworld was looking for was.
She was silent for a while, and retreated to the back.
The last contestant, Daisy, looked at the crowd and cheered up the atmosphere with a smile: "My God, the pressure to be the finisher is too much, everyone in front is so strong!"
Liu: "The last contestant, please show us your answer board."
Daisy responded, and showed the question board, which read:
"Woman: Fencer, my sister (?) got lost when I was young, and I have been blaming myself and suffering for this incident;
Lost location: a large stone tablet in front of a village. "
Daisy said: "I am good at backtracking. When I met this lady, I saw her wearing sportswear and fencing competitions on the field. She was very heroic, so I guessed her occupation."
"Besides, there is a picture that is the clearest, and it is also remembered repeatedly by her. I feel that it was when this lady was young. I don't know the exact age. She was about ten years old, and she was wearing a gray-blue dress. Little girls in skirts holding hands..."
When she said this, Zheng Xiaona knew what she was talking about, nodded her head twice, and grabbed her husband's palm tightly.
"Yes, it's Yanyan! She was wearing a blue-gray dress that day! This master really saw it, and it was my sister who wrote it right."
Daisy pursed her lips and smiled: "The reason I put a question mark is that I just saw such a picture through backtracking, but I'm not sure who she is. If she is your sister, I can understand you, ma'am." Why is it so painful?"
"Because you think it's your fault, that little girl was lost. You've been living in self-blame all these years."
Zheng Xiaona was silent for a long time, and it was a tacit agreement.
The old lady in the wheelchair blinked her cloudy eyes and touched her eldest daughter's hand: "I don't blame you, Xiaona."
"Blame us two old guys for not taking good care of your sisters at that time!" Old man Zheng said in a muffled voice, "I didn't want to admit it before, and I took my anger on you. Dad apologizes to you. Actually, this matter Never blamed you."
After explanation, the audience knew that the Zheng family's old couple had been in business more than 20 years ago.
At that time, the economic recovery was waiting to be done. They found that the prices of dried and fresh mushrooms in restaurants and food stores in their hometown were very high. They had relatives and friends from the southern province, and they knew that the price of mushrooms in the big province there was very low. .
At that time, there was no express delivery and logistics, and the runners collected the fungus from the southern province and sold them here at a high price;
If you have a network and don't feel tired, you can resell on both sides, and the price difference you can make will make the Zheng family rich.
Seeing business opportunities, the Zheng family started to run goods in two places.
As for the two daughters, they specially hired a fellow villager who also grew up in this city to look after them.
It was like this in the first two or three years. The Zheng family didn't stay at home during the peak season. The two daughters lived in a family home since they were young, and because they were young, they were prone to friction and often quarreled and fought.
Zheng Xiaona didn't like this younger sister when she was young.
That year coincided with the time when the Zheng family was going to the southern province. The two sisters were in the sixth grade and the other was only in the first grade. The fellow from the same town who had been helping them take care of the child was more than eight months pregnant and had to go to the hospital at any time. There was no time at all. I don't have the energy to help the Zheng family take care of their children.
Seeing that summer is the ripe season for mushrooms, the Zheng family decided to take their two children on vacation to Southern Province to collect mushrooms, reluctant to part with this lucrative market.
After arriving at the place, the Zheng family rented a small hotel in the village.
Due to the need to go up the mountain to collect the fungus, the journey was tiring and time was tight, and the couple did not have so much energy to take care of the two sisters.
They had heard that there were traffickers easily in Nan Province, so they repeatedly told Zheng Xiaona, who was twelve years old at the time, to take good care of her sister when they were away.
The two sisters were still at the age when they would quarrel over a doll or an episode of TV.
When I went to a nearby village to receive the goods, the two little girls quarreled over a trivial matter. Zheng Xiaona was going to be annoyed to death by her bad-tempered and stubborn sister:
"If you mess with me again, I won't hold your hand!"
Younger sister Zheng Xiaoyan pouted: "I don't care if you lead me."
I don't know who got rid of it first, but the two sulking little girls kicked the stones behind their parents, and no one wanted to pay attention to the other.
Ten minutes later, after taking the goods, the Zheng family couple stood at the door and said goodbye to the villagers. They saw the eldest daughter squatting on the ground playing with ants, but the younger daughter disappeared.
The expressions of the two changed drastically: "Where's your sister?"
Zheng Xiaona looked around in a daze, only to find that there were people coming and going, but her sister disappeared without a sound.
Afterwards, the Zheng family and his wife took her to search in the southern province for more than a month, but Zheng Xiaoyan never heard from her.
The owner of the hotel they lived in felt very sympathetic when they heard about it:
'The child lost? They will definitely not be found. We often have stowaways here, the kind of black and yellow skinned foreign kidnappers who abduct women and children and smuggle them to the other side of the border. You can't find this kind of thing at all, and you can't find it if you look for it;
Even if it was abducted by locals, they would have sold it long ago. Poor little girl, she looks so delicate. '
The Zheng family and his wife were in despair when they heard the words.
Sometimes when they got angry, they would speak freely and vent their anger on their eldest daughter, who was only twelve years old at the time, blaming her for not being optimistic about her younger sister, which caused her to disappear.
But in fact, a twelve-year-old child, even if he is sensible and not an adult, how can he be so thoughtful.
The impact of this experience is indelible to Zheng Xiaona, and it has also made her deeply guilty.
More than 20 years have passed, both parents are in their 70s, and she is almost 40 years old. The two old people have long accepted the fact that their youngest daughter cannot be found.
It was Zheng Xiaona who was unwilling to accept it.
She is still wondering if all this would not have happened if she hadn't gotten into trouble with her sister and let go of her hand.
Tormented by the guilt in her heart, she would come to Nan Province every year to negotiate with the local association, and never gave up looking for her sister's whereabouts.
Just when she already felt that there was no hope in sight, the online clips about "Spiritual Affairs" - especially the clip of Gu Zhisang's death by iron mouth, made her feel hopeful again.
It's just that Zheng Xiaona's family is a little disappointed after knowing that even metaphysics can't stand up to her sister.
Daisy said: "As your parents said, ma'am, you should not use this incident as a shackle to torture yourself. What you should hate more are those human traffickers, who have ruined countless families."
"It's a pity that I can't go back to what you haven't experienced, and you don't have the girl's hair or personal items, so there is no way to find her whereabouts, but I saw how she was lost at that time. "
Zheng Xiaona nodded and said, "It was at the gate of a village at that time, and there was indeed a stone tablet standing outside. I still remember the name of the village and town was written on it with red paint. But I have visited many times afterwards, but found nothing."
At this point, the matter reached a stalemate, and none of the contestants could find Zheng Xiaona's whereabouts.
However, the program team did not give up on this, and a group of people took the equipment and prepared to go to the place that Daisy 'saw' - that is, the place where Zheng Xiaona disappeared back then.
I hope that when the incident happened, the players can re-perceive some useful information.
The program group has a special car, with equipment and six contestants, a cameraman, and a host. After driving at a not-so-fast speed for about ten minutes, they arrived at the place back then.
Compared with more than 20 years ago, the buildings and roads in this village have been renovated several times, and it looks quite urbanized. Every household has built small self-built buildings, and they seem to be living a prosperous life.
Since there are seven or eight vehicles in the program group, they look very conspicuous. Many of them squatted on the ground to play cards. The children of the villagers in the small racing car raised their heads and looked over:
"Are you a TV station filming a program?"
"Will this camera put me on TV?"
When Gu Zhisang got out of the car, his eyes flicked over the children of different heights in front of him, and he paused when he saw the deeper gray fog covering their faces.
can not tell.
There is nothing on the faces of these children, no fate and no karma, they are all covered up.
If it weren't for the normal expressions of the other contestants, she really would have wondered if she had fallen into some kind of sinister place.
When she moved her eyes from the faces of these children to the distance, the sky, her raised phoenix eyes narrowed slightly.
In her eyes, the sky over the entire Southern Province mountain range is gray, blending with the lingering clouds and mist, swallowing and absorbing, as if alive;
The gray fog has no end, extending towards the end of the mountain range.
In other words, this entire place is hidden under the Dao of Heaven, but it is beyond the shackles of the Six Realms.
Such a large sum of money is definitely not just aimed at her alone, it has been accumulated over the years.
No matter what happens here, the laws of heaven will not be able to detect it. Without karmic punishment, the 'evil' cannot be suppressed, and it will only spread uncontrollably in this lawless land.
Gu Zhisang was sure that there must have been more than one illegal incident around this mountain range.
But it was hidden due to the collapse of the heavenly way, and ordinary people could not find it at all.
Unless the 'evil' here has condensed to the point where the people here can't bear it anymore, it is possible to be pierced.
But by then it will be too late.
Gu Zhisang took a deep breath, the gas circulating in the air seemed to be faintly obscure.
After inhaling into the chest cavity, her lungs were wrapped around her lungs like thin threads. When she tried to use the power in her body, she could clearly feel that she was more depressed than before.
The stone stele at the entrance of the village is still preserved, with the three characters of "Little Stone Village" painted with bright red paint.
There is no door at the entrance of the village, like the black hole of a giant beast.
She suppressed the coldness in her eyes, and followed the contestants to the village.
After Daisy saw the stele, she said, "This is the stele I saw in the flashback."
Zheng Xiaona nodded and said: "I was squatting on the opposite side of the street. This place was originally a residential building. About ten years ago, the whole village was refurbished. All the old houses in that string were ripped off and replaced with new ones. small mansion."
The place she was pointing at had been turned into a convenience store.
At this moment, Da Liu noticed that one of the contestants, Xi Haihong, was shocked, staring at the surroundings, as if looking at something in the air.
He asked aloud: "Contestant Xi Haihong, did you see anything? Did you find anything?"
Xi Haihong looked at him, opened his mouth and closed it again, forced a smile and said, "It's nothing."
But her expression was very dignified, and many viewers in the live broadcast room also noticed it.
[Xi Haihong is impermanent, she seems to say that she can help the underworld. I feel that she must have seen something with a shocked expression. Could it be that there are ghosts around the contestants? 】
[It can't be that Zheng Xiaoyan has died and turned into a ghost, floating here, right? ! 】
【...What are you thinking? Several contestants said that she might not be dead. Didn't Gu Zhisang just say that she was in Nan Province. 】
[? ! Look at the edge of the camera, why did Xi Haihong run to find Gu Zhisang? Do they know each other very well? Didn't Xi Haihong's fans say that the master is a son of a serious metaphysics family? They feel that the relationship with Gu Zhisang is quite familiar, so they are curious about what they are talking about together. 】
[Did you really find something? I want to hear it louder too! 】
Xi Haihong thought she was approaching Gu Zhisang secretly, but the live broadcast captured her very clearly.
After she walked over as if nothing had happened, she lowered her voice solemnly:
"Well, aren't you an emissary from the underworld? You should be able to see... these things around you? Do you know what's going on?!"
Gu Zhisang knew what she was talking about.
I can indeed see it myself.
On director Li Chenghe's shoulder, a transparent white shadow floated, following behind him step by step.
Just three meters away, on the lens of the camera brother, there is still a blurry shadow lying on his stomach.
Looking around, under the faint gray mist, there are actually several faint, extremely light-colored soul bodies.
Xi Haihong couldn't believe her eyes.
"Are these, are these all human souls?"
"Where's the seducer from the underworld? What about the impermanence from the southern province? Why did these souls become like this, no one cares?!"
She was a little emotional, and she asked several questions in a row, which was enough to prove the shock in her heart.
You must know that the soul of a living person after death, unless it has strong resentment, evil thoughts, and forms its own strength and obsession, otherwise it will not resist the world consciousness and the laws of the underworld, and will naturally be sensed by the ecstasy of the underworld. was sent to hell.
Even if there is a soul that escaped from the envoy, it must find a place to hide in the yin, for fear that it will be hurt by yang energy or some mysterious master who can see them.
But at this very moment, near a small village, there appeared strange phenomena of soul and body floating around!
The most important thing is that these souls are also very strange.
They are light white in color, indicating that they were just ordinary people, not evil ghosts and ghosts. It stands to reason that they should be reincarnated as usual.
And none of them are whole, but broken, with no whole at all, and very weak.
Not to mention hurting people, if it wasn't for Xi Haihong's special physique that could see all the souls, she would not be able to find the problem here like other contestants!
Even if they are sent to reincarnation, the afterlife of these remnants will be either dementia or disability.
Looking at the mindless white mist, Xi Haihong had a terrible thought in her heart:
These souls are not formed naturally.
Gu Zhisang's expression was cold, Gu Jing was silent:
"This is 'evil'."
It was the wanton 'evil' that led to the existence of these remnants, and she discovered it the moment she got off the car.
Xi Haihong didn't understand, but just took a deep look at her: "You can see it, what should I do now, just leave it alone?"
But thinking that she is a descendant of the Xuanmen Xi family, there is no need to ask Gu Zhisang's opinion, so she went a little further, took out her cell phone, and dialed her father's number.
After Xi Kui on the other end answered, Xi Haihong described the scene she saw to her father excitedly:
"Father, there is definitely something wrong here!"
Xi Kui was silent for a long time, then sighed, "I believe what you said, but the branch of Xuanmen in the southern province is managed by the branch of Qianqingmen, and I have no right to intervene."
Xi Haihong was silent.
She knows that the three pillars of the Taoist sect stand together and carve up the surrounding areas of Xia Kingdom without interfering with each other.
Under normal circumstances, if any metaphysical incident occurs in the area that each family is responsible for, people from other families cannot intervene at will. They must wait for the local Taoist branch to resolve it, otherwise conflicts will easily arise.
Her voice was a little dry, and she said: "Father, do you think I have seen all of these, how many more places I can't see? Could it be that the people from the Xuanmen Branch in the Southern Province really didn't notice anything? Why did headquarters never receive these messages?"
"Is there really nothing wrong with the people in these branches? Are we just...really doing nothing?"
After a while, Xi Kui's voice sounded exhausted:
"I am the patriarch of the Xi family, and you are the heir. Once the two of us intervene, it will represent the position of the entire Xi family."
Xi Haihong: ...
"I see."
When she hung up the phone, her eyes turned red, and her heart felt powerless and uncomfortable.
At this time, Gu Zhisang suddenly said: "Is it the king's land in the whole world, this is the southern province of Xia Kingdom, not Xuanmen's."
Xi Haihong suddenly raised her head and looked at her, "You mean, notify the Lingzu?"
The host on the other side chatted with a few children at the entrance of the village with a smile, and learned that he could be on TV, and now there are many people watching him, and these children were very excited.
The chattering noise caught the attention of the employees in the convenience store.
Two middle-aged women poked their heads out of the store, and their expressions suddenly became tense after seeing everyone in the program group:
"What are you brats doing? Who told you to mess around with strangers?"
Several children heard the sound and ran over in a swarm. Only then did everyone know that they were all children of convenience store employees, and the few three employees here were all women in the village.
They looked at the program crew with scrutiny and suspicion.
At this time, Zheng Xiaona came out from behind and greeted the familiar village woman: "Sister Li, Sister Zhou."
The woman surnamed Li was taken aback when she saw her, and then looked at other people, "Hey, isn't this Miss Zheng, you and your man are here again?! Then these people are your friends?"
Two wait-and-see employees in the store poked their heads out to watch, and one of the new women who didn't know who Zheng Xiaona was asked in a low voice:
"who is this?"
The woman surnamed Zhou lowered her voice: "I told you about a woman from other places before. When the family came to the village when I was young, my sister was 'photographed', and then I have been looking for it for many years, remember? No, that's it!"
It's a local dialect to be 'photographed'.
Child abduction is also known as "patting flowers", and being "patted" means being abducted by human traffickers by improper means.
The woman looked shocked: "It's her? You haven't given up even though you're not too young? How many years have you been looking for this!"
"It's not that stubborn, we have told her many times that it's useless, but she insists on listening..."
While the two women were chatting in low voices, the woman surnamed Li outside also chatted with Zheng Xiaona and Da Liu.
Knowing that Da Liu and the person behind with the camera came to help find relatives, she froze for a moment, "...Is that so."
"But big sister, it's not a solution for you to search so thoughtlessly. I told you that your sister was 'photographed' away at such a young age. She must have been sold away..."
Before the woman surnamed Li finished speaking, a cold voice sounded from behind the crowd:
"Then I want to ask my eldest sister, is there a serious missing person around here?"
She looked back, and saw a beautiful woman with pale skin and bright black eyes, her eyes were clear;
The next second the woman asked, her smile froze.
Gu Zhisang: "If there are a lot of traffickers here, have any of them been sold to your village?
