Play bone

As soon as the faint question came, Gordon suddenly felt a layer of goosebumps.He had a hunch that Lu Li had malicious intentions, so he shook his head ferociously, "I won't listen!"

Lu Li obediently kept his mouth shut, and the two continued walking forward one after the other.

All the street lights in the park were on, but there was no one on the road.After turning a few forks in the road, the street signs indicate that the "Underworld Palace" area is ahead.

It is said to be an underground palace, but most of the buildings are still built on the ground.For some reason, this area did not build the most common cement exterior wall, but instead used a metal fence with a height of more than two meters and a relatively high cost as a partition.

Through the railings and sparse coral hedges, you can see the gloomy and dilapidated antique buildings inside the park.Under the green landscape lights, the coffins were randomly discarded on the side of the road, and the white spirit-calling banners fluttered in the breeze.

Gordon, who grew up in the United States, is quite familiar with Chinese movies.He covered his eyes and watched Lin Zhengying's zombie movie in the 80s several times.On the first rest day after arriving in Hailing, he took a few acquaintances into the underground palace area for a walk. When he came back, his face was pale with fright, and since then he has been walking around the underground palace.

Passing by here in the middle of the night now, of course he felt a little nervous again.Just at this moment, Lu Li's faint voice sounded against his back again.

"In the entire film and television city, only this area uses metal fences. Do you know why?"

"...how could I know?!"

But it's nice to have someone who speaks boldly, so Gordon barely made up an answer.

"It is very convenient to fix the green screen on the railing, so that it is convenient for post-keying to do special effects?"

"No." Lu Li revealed the answer, "Metals, especially copper, can trap ghosts in the park①."

"Cut! Do you think I'm a three-year-old child?!"

Bluffing, Gordon sneered twice: "I believe you are a ghost!"

"Why, you don't believe it?"

During the conversation, Lu Li had already walked to Gordon's side: "But I have seen it with my own eyes."

"……real?"

No matter how timid he was, Gordon's curiosity had already been aroused by Lu Li, and he tried to urge him with his eyes.But when he raised his head, he found that Lu Li's handsome face was actually a bit gloomy under the streetlight.

Of course, what was more sinister was what Lu Li said next——

"Once upon a time, there was a man who was involved in a car accident while going out to work. His body was crushed under dozens of tons of ore, but his soul possessed another victim with the same name and surname in the same car. Then, he used this A new identity, to continue to do what he should do, to love the person he should love... Tell me, this person, is he a person or a ghost?"

It just so happened that he had just finished saying this when the nearest street lamp flickered twice and then went out.Immediately afterwards, the dark wind blew by, and there was a rustling in the fence of the Netherworld Palace area,

"..."

Gordon seemed bewildered.Those eccentric eyes were full of horror at the moment.

At this time, an electric shuttle bus to the hotel happened to drive behind.He suddenly trotted two steps, grabbed the rear of the car, got into the car, and fled away with the car.

Looking at his back, Lu Li couldn't help but laugh.Forget it, whether he took it seriously or not, that kid should be able to calm down for a while.

So Lu Li was the only one left on the way.He is not afraid - the summer night starry sky above his head, and the buzzing of insects beside his ears.Those ghost houses and props separated by a wall are just fakes after all, and the real world is still peaceful and beautiful.

After about 200 meters, there is another three-way intersection ahead.The lights of the hotel were already beckoning not far ahead, but Lu Li heard a voice calling softly behind him.

"Mr. Lu..."

It wasn't Gordon, and it didn't seem like anyone he'd known in the past few days.Perhaps it was because the voice was too eerie, and Lu Li's back unconsciously felt a shudder.But he still turned around.

Unexpectedly, what appeared behind him was a man who was not very young, but was exceptionally elegant and good-looking.The dim light sprinkled a handful of gold on him, making him more like an elf who appeared out of thin air in the dark night.

Lu Li felt that it looked familiar, so he turned a few times in his mind before suddenly remembering—it was actually Tao Rujiu who had met several times at the Qiushan base more than two years ago.

Then he remembered that Tao Rujiu's lover was the owner of Hailing and Qiushan film and television studios, the head of the Ling family.

It seems that there is nothing unusual about the "lady boss" appearing on his own territory.But when you think about it carefully, something is not quite right at this time and this place.

Lu Li was thinking about it, but he saw Tao Rujiu walking towards the side of the road, reaching out to grab the tall metal fence and shaking it twice.Of course, the fence didn't budge.

Lu Li couldn't help being curious: "Mr. Tao...what is this going to do?"

"I'm checking the railing."

Tao Rujiu's tone was gentle as he continued to test more railings.

"Didn't Mr. Lu just say that these railings are of great use. Although I don't come here often, I will check whenever I have a chance. I'm not afraid of ten thousand, just in case."

Speaking of this, he took the initiative to apologize: "Sorry, I didn't mean to eavesdrop on your conversation just now."

"Where is it..." Lu Li quickly shook his head, "I should say I'm sorry. Just now, in order to scare that kid, I deliberately said some rumors."

"Actually, those aren't all rumors."

Tao Rujiu shook his head seemingly calmly, but it made Lu Li's heart skip a beat.

He suddenly recalled that the first encounter with Tao Rujiu was actually tinged with a hint of fantasy - the temple in the snowy mountain, the shrines covered by incense... Oh, and the scripture recommended by Tao Rujiu And the signature drawn——

"Don't sigh for delays in things, don't talk about the end, the long pole will finally start, and once you catch the golden hook."

Two years have passed in a blink of an eye, and the previously somewhat obscure signature has now become an obvious fact—despite misunderstandings, cold wars, and mutual accusations, he and Shen Xingxuan finally came together again.Is this destined by God's will, or is it moved by love, maybe it's both, maybe there's more...

Thinking of this, Lu Li looked at Tao Rujiu with a little more admiration.He even suspected that Tao Rujiu had already seen his "secret"—this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so he simply fabricated some causes and effects casually, and tentatively wanted to ask questions about "reincarnation and rebirth".

Tao Rujiu didn't boast, but just shook his head: "There are so many strange and heretical things in this world, and I have only dabbled in this way for a short period of ten years, which is to the extent of being able to see the leopard. I really dare not pretend to be a master." Let me give you some pointers. But my master has a good impression of you, if there is fate in the future, I can arrange for you to meet him too."

"Your master has an impression of us?"

Lu Li was not surprised that Tao Rujiu had a master, he was surprised by Tao Rujiu's "you" - besides him, could there be Shen Xingxuan?

Tao Rujiu was honest and cute, he said that his master loved to watch the TV series he and Shen Xing chose to act in many years ago.Therefore, when Shen Xingxuan proposed to visit him, he was quickly accepted.

This has been made very clear, Tao Rujiu indeed knows the cause and effect of what happened to Lu Li.However, Shen Xing chose to be immersed in the entertainment industry for these years, and scoffed at the popular Tibetan Tantra and Nanyang Jiangtou, so why did he suddenly pay homage to an old Taoist priest who loves to watch TV dramas?

He raised this question, but considering Shen Xingze's privacy, he didn't force Tao Rujiu to answer.

However, Tao Rujiu didn't treat him well, he just said "this matter is related to you", and then explained everything.

It was about a year and a half ago in the winter - it can be estimated that it was January of the next year after the Wang Ruoqiu incident broke out and Lu Li made a public apology.Shen Xing, who joined the filming group, ran into Ling Li and Tao Rujiu again.

At Shen Xingze's request, Lingli took him to an antique shop in Hailing City.There, Shen Xing chose to pay a visit to Tao Rujiu's master, and asked a question——

"Is it possible for a person who died in an accident to come back to this world as another person?"

Although Master did not give an exact explanation, he gave an affirmative answer.

Tao Rujiu still clearly remembers that after getting the answer, Shen Xingxuan's originally dark and dim eyes suddenly burst into light, like clouds breaking through the moon and shining brightly.

But after a short lull, those eyes became confused again.The only difference from before is that this time the chaos is so chaotic that it is eager to try and full of vitality.

Having said that, Tao Rujiu looked at Lu Li in front of him.

"Ling Li and I were a little worried at first, whether we would do something bad with good intentions. But it seems that you two are fine now."

This was obviously just a polite remark - Lu Li could tell that he wasn't some kind of magician.If Tao Rujiu was really worried, why did he wait until now to mention it.

But what Tao Rujiu thought was not the point.The real point is that these words filled an extremely important gap between Lu Li and Shen Xingze.

After the Wang Ruoqiu incident, during the nearly half a year of the cold war between the two, Shen Xingze was indeed as he had confessed at the beginning, still caring about Lu Li endlessly.Even in order to confirm the absurdity of rebirth and reincarnation, some research was done.

Lu Li's mood at this moment was as if he found a piece of candy that had been forgotten for a long time, put it on the tip of his tongue and licked it, it was still sweet.

The two stood and talked for a while, then saw Ling Li coming from another direction to join Tao Rujiu.This middle-aged lover is still dazzlingly sweet, and it is really difficult to map the bloody storm that year according to the folklore to them.

Seeing other people showing affection, I couldn't help being envious, and besides, Lu Li was pretending to be serious, so he opened his mouth to say goodbye to them.

But at this moment, Ling Li took out a note and handed it to Lu Li.He also explained that Shen Xingze had actually asked Master two questions that day.The second question was more like a request - he asked his master to help him figure out whether Lu Li would encounter danger in the future.And the master promised that if something bad happens in the future, he will directly mention Lu Li himself, but only once.

Lu Li took the note while beating a small drum in his heart—could this mean that there will be troubles in the near future?

He didn't dare to neglect, and immediately opened the note by the light, and found that it was neither a signature nor a warning, but a strange sentence.

"Blue Enchantress, [-]."

The author has something to say: On the first day of the Lunar New Year, I will bring two couples of male protagonists to wish everyone a happy New Year!

I wish everyone more powerful than Lao Shen, richer than Lao Ling, more talented than Xiao Lu, and better luck than Tao Tao!There is also a cute pet like a cat fairy 23333

① For details, please refer to "Hailing Desolate City". You can find it on the Internet, but the format will be messy...

②However, Tao Rujiu’s master is a cat fairy, also refer to "Hailing Deserted City", in short, he used to be a big white cat who loved to cock its tail and show chrysanthemums (of course it is now a human being)

Another spoiler that is not directly related to the plot of the main text, but very interesting:

In fact, the reason why Lu Li got into a car accident back then was because Qi Maoxian, Tao Rujiu's master, was hunting evil spirits in that area.The escape of the evil spirit affected the truck driver and caused a car accident.Lu Li shouldn't have died in the first place, so he came back to life with his dead body.Of course, this is too weird, and I won’t explain too much about the reason for the rebirth in this work~~ It’s good that everyone knows it in their hearts
