MTL - I Became Popular in the Underworld After Live Broadcasting Taoism-Chapter 78
There was a moment of silence around, and Sister Li laughed dryly: "This should be..."
She was stared at by Gu Zhisang's calm gaze, and felt a little apprehensive in her heart, until the word "no" came out of her mouth, as if she couldn't speak out under the pressure of tens of thousands of catties, and instead faltered :
"Who can say for sure about this kind of thing? When someone else gets married, they won't tell outsiders whether the bride was kidnapped. If you ask me, I don't know."
Hearing that the barrage in the live broadcast room expressed doubts:
【I don’t believe what she said. Some old men and women in the village are so gossip, they can inquire about the private affairs of every house and house, and I don’t know where they all know;
If there is really a family who is a bought daughter-in-law, adopted child... such a thing can be talked about by the whole village as an after-dinner chat in three days! 】
[This Sister Li looks guilty when she looks at it, she must not be telling the truth, I'm afraid it's not like this among the people she knows. 】
【When the host was teasing a few children just now, they came out to watch as soon as they heard the sound. They were so nervous when they saw strangers. If it weren't for the rampant abduction and trafficking nearby, wouldn't it be so overwhelming? 】
【…】
Gu Zhisang slightly raised his eyebrows, catching a loophole in the woman surnamed Li's words.
She looked stunned: "It means that there are such things as abducting and selling 'brides' here."
Sister Li choked, unwilling to speak:
"What do you mean by this? I'm not a prisoner. Sister Zheng, you brought these reporters here because you suspect that people in our village have detained your sister?"
Zheng Xiaona hurriedly waved her hands and said, "Sister Li, you are overthinking. The program team just came to the place where the incident happened to find out the situation and see if they can find any clues."
At this time, among the two women who huddled in the convenience store and watched, one of them saw Xun Yiqing in the crowd wearing a Taoist uniform, and He Mitu in a black silk and gold-patterned mandarin jacket, braided hair and sunglasses.
She suddenly thought of something, widened her eyes and exclaimed:
"Oh! Are you a popular fortune teller on the Internet?!"
Da Liu: "If the lady is talking about "Spiritual Affairs", we are indeed the production team of this show, and we are here to help Ms. Zheng Xiaona find her relatives."
"I saw you on the short video platform before, I didn't expect that you not only watch things and catch ghosts, but can even do this kind of work of helping to find relatives!"
Li and women surnamed Zhou don't watch live broadcasts and variety shows, and don't know the identities of Gu Zhisang and others and the "Spiritual Affairs" program. Only after the voice of the third woman, did they know that this group of people is actually good at it. Look at things, a psychic master who can psychic!
Immediately, the expression of the woman surnamed Li was a little evasive.
And Liu, who is good at communication, has already chatted with this woman.
According to her own statement, her surname is 'Dai', she is 34 years old, and she is not from 'Xiaoshi Village' but from the next-door village and town. She works as a handyman and cashier in this convenience store.
The little girl with two ponytails outside is her daughter.
Da Liu asked in an interview: "Does Ms. Dai know that there are serious missing persons in the nearby villages?"
The woman surnamed Dai smiled wryly and shook her head: "Trappers are being hunted everywhere here, we pay attention to these, and usually teach children not to run out alone, so although the Internet and the news say how bad the security and environment in Southern Province are How bad, I don’t think it’s that exaggerated.”
"At least when I was in that village, I never heard of any woman or family whose child was abducted."
Gu Zhisang who was at the side suddenly asked, "Miss Dai, you are not from the local area, are you?"
The woman surnamed Dai was stunned for a moment: "How do you know?"
She has been in Southern Province for more than ten years, and the accent of her previous hometown has all been worn away. Many people she has met in the past two years think she is from Southern Province.
"My hometown is in the south, girl, you can tell at a glance that you are really amazing!"
In fact, Gu Zhisang didn't directly see her place of birth, because the face of the woman surnamed Dai was also shrouded in a faint mist, and a lot of information was difficult to decipher.
But judging from the face of the woman surnamed Dai, her hairline at the sideburns, especially at the 'Tiancang' position, is high and messy, which is the 'Migration Palace'.
A person with such a palace position at least shows that she did not have a smooth life all her life, but wandered away all year round, living in a foreign land, and she was not very happy in her hometown, but she was homesick but could not return.
This alone is enough to show that the woman surnamed Dai is not a native of Southern Province.
In fact, she said the latter words herself, showing that she is from the south.
Gu Zhisang can only look at the facial features under the premise of being blinded by spiritual perception. Gu Zhisang can also tell from her eyebrows that she has brothers and sisters, and from the "small, medium, and big" eyes, she can tell that she is slightly thin;
In addition, it can be seen from the bumps on both sides that she is married, and the relationship between husband and wife is not bad.
Even people without spiritual sense can memorize these most common physiognomic terms, and they can even guess 60% of them correctly.
As for the rest, it is based on the information that the counted inadvertently or passively draws out when they are surprised.
This is also the most commonly used method of deception by charlatans among the people.
Da Liu asked, "Then why did you marry here, Ms. Dai?"
Ms. Dai smiled awkwardly: "Before, it was introduced by a friend before."
She didn't really want to say it, but she still made everyone guess in the chat.
It turns out that the woman surnamed Dai has been in the southern province for almost twenty years.
At that time, there were many poor children in her family, and she did not pass the high school entrance examination. She left her hometown to work when she was fifteen or sixteen.
When I worked in the electronics factory in the first year, an older sister in the same factory said that he could take her to the southern province to find a job, so she followed the older sister.
As a result, she didn't see any work or anything after she arrived in the place. The elder sister went around and introduced her to a young man from the next village, who was ten years older than her. Good marriage.
The woman surnamed Dai who was alone was still a little girl at that time, so she agreed half-heartedly, and has never returned to her hometown since then.
[? ? ? At that time, this sister was not yet an adult, right? ! She was tricked into getting married at the age of seventeen or eighteen, and introduced her to a man who was almost thirty years old in the name of taking her out to work. Isn't this coaxing? 】
【This is kidnapping...】
[Some netizens are rare and strange. I have an old aunt who married when she was fourteen years old, and gave birth to my cousin when she turned sixteen. People who are 14 or 15 years old are still middle and high school students! 】
[Think about it carefully, family members, if Miss Dai didn't agree at that time, she is unaccompanied here, and she doesn't know if she will encounter any more dangerous things. The sad thing is that she is already married to this man. It was the best choice at the time. 】
The contestants who had finished listening also had complicated expressions.
Daisy couldn't help asking: "Ma'am, aren't you angry and miss home and relatives?"
The woman surnamed Dai sighed and said, "We've been together for almost twenty years, and now we have two children, so we'll settle here. Besides, he's hit and scolded me, so what's there to be angry about?"
"If you don't marry him, you will live with someone else after two years. When I went out to work, the family didn't keep me. Even if I go back, I won't be treated much by them..."
During the interview, Xi Haihong slowly moved to Gu Zhisang's side again, "Have you already reported to the Lingzu?"
Ever since she discovered the remnant soul wandering nearby, her mood has been low and depressed.
She knew very well that as a direct descendant of the Xi family, she couldn't provoke the right and wrong of the Qianqing family, which would make it difficult for her father and the entire Xi family.
But those broken remnant souls drifted faintly and aimlessly, and her conscience made it impossible for her to turn a blind eye.
After struggling again and again, Xi Haihong anonymously delivered a report letter to Lingzu, listing some of her suspicions.
Not two minutes after the letter was sent, the Lingzu people on the opposite side replied:
"Thank you for your information, we are following up the investigation."
Seeing that the Lingzu was in action, Xi Haihong subconsciously thought that Gu Zhisang had tipped off the news.
Gu Zhisang: ...
She said helplessly: "Have you ever thought that the live broadcast of the show is on, and someone from the spirit group is watching in real time?"
I'm afraid that after receiving the news of the report, the people in the Lingzu will know who wrote it.
There was also a message on Gu Zhisang's cell phone, which was sent to her by Zheng Ruyu.
According to the above, in fact, Xia Guo officials have always known that this is the hardest-hit area for human trafficking. Every year, a large part of missing persons whose whereabouts are unknown finally show up in Nan Province.
Not only women and children, but also many adult workers.
The local police have cracked down on it for years, but with little effect.
The criminal gangs here are powerful and sophisticated. In addition, the place is mountainous and adjacent to the border. Once a person is abducted, it is difficult to find it;
It is simply a big cancer in the southern province.
For a long time before that, the officials did not think about the handwriting of people outside Fang in these cases.
In recent years, the Ling group has gradually discovered anomalies.
For example, the police clearly traced and located some criminals, but as soon as they entered several border areas in the southern province, they completely cut off contact and disappeared out of thin air.
After investigation, the Lingzu can also confirm that these large-scale trafficking gangs have shadows of metaphysical methods behind them.
It's just that they didn't have a clue to crack it and arrest it.
Another example is that after in-depth investigation, they know that some wealthy business circles in the Southern Province believe in a kind of idol that has only risen in the Southern Province in recent years.
The name of this **** is 'Su God', also known as 'Thousand Face God'.
It is said that after worshiping it devoutly, it will be very effective, manifesting a powerful force to realize your wishes.
However, neither in the metaphysics classics nor in the Xuanmen spiritual group, there are no records or legends of this kind of idol.
Its rise out of thin air is somewhat weird.
When she learned that the "Spiritual Affairs" program team was coming to the southern province to help those seeking help in the extra match to find relatives, the first thought in Zheng Ruyu's mind was to see if Gu Zhisang could be a breakthrough point.
After replying a message from Zheng Ruyu, Gu Zhisang raised his head when he heard the movement.
A few young and middle-aged men appeared in the field of vision, "Hey! What are the people over there doing?"
After receiving the news from Sister Li from the village, several young and middle-aged men who came out hastily looked unhappy. The leader was probably in his forties with dark skin.
He glanced at the camera, walked forward with a smile on his face, and shook hands with Da Liu:
"Hello, brother, I am the head of Xiaoshi Village, and my name is Chen Xiangbiao."
Without waiting for Liu to explain, Chen Xiangbiao said:
"I know what your demands are. I also know the family of this big sister. Her family has come to our village to collect dried mushrooms more than 20 years ago. My sister has been lost for many years. Poor little girl."
"To be honest, our village has also helped mobilize several times. I really don't know where that little girl was kidnapped. But the person who came here is a guest, and you are also regarded as online media. Why don't you go to the village?"
The director team discussed it and agreed with Chen Xiangbiao's words.
A group of people followed the village chief and several village officials around twice, and found that the construction of this small stone village was indeed very good. Every house was built with fences, and the roads were clean and level.
Zheng Xiaoyan's information was not found, but Chen Xiangbiao took photos of many fruit trees and greenhouses in the village.
More than half an hour later, Chen Xiangbiao said, "I still have some business to deal with. If you stay in the village tonight, I will entertain you."
After he left, Da Liu asked:
"How do you feel? After coming to the place where Zheng Xiaoyan was lost, have you found anything new, or have any clues?"
But the players said no.
It is a lie that Zheng Xiaona's family is not disappointed with this result, they even have a sense of despair that Yanyan may never be found again in this life.
With a bitter face, Zheng Xiaona said in a hoarse voice:
"Actually, we are mentally prepared, and we know that asking for help is a bit difficult, but I will not give up looking for my sister, and I cannot forget the mistakes I made by negligence back then."
"At the same time, I also hope that even if Yanyan cannot be found and our family cannot be reunited, she can live happily in another place."
"Thank you to the "Spiritual Affairs" program team, and thank you masters, for causing you trouble."
Da Liu: "Okay, so this extra match has come to an end. Unfortunately, we have not been able to find the whereabouts of the lost Zheng Xiaoyan until the end, and we have not been able to help the family of the beneficiary reunite."
"The following is a photo of Zheng Xiaoyan, the youngest daughter of the Zheng family. She was lost in 1990 when she was 7 years old. She is now 32 years old. If you have seen her and know her, please contact Our program team is very grateful.”
When he was speaking, the backstage of the program group put some photo excerpts in the live broadcast room.
Above is a photo of Zheng Xiaoyan from the age of four to seven. Although the picture quality is blurry, it can still be seen that she is a beauty.
For a while, many viewers expressed their regrets in the live broadcast room.
Da Liu said again: "Today at 6 o'clock in the afternoon, the second voting channel for the top 5 will be opened again, please vote for the strongest mysterious master in your heart!"
After reading the script, the live camera was turned off amidst heated discussions among the audience.
Everyone looked at each other and decided to leave.
At this moment, Gu Zhisang slightly raised his head and pointed to the distance, "Is there a village over there?"
The place where they are now is the northernmost part of Xiaoshi Village. There are not many residents. It is adjacent to a ditch and a stream. There are some trees in the distance, and there are houses behind the trees.
Zheng Xiaona took a look, nodded and said, "That's Xiaoyan Village over there, and that big sister Dai just now is from this village."
Gu Zhisang took two steps forward: "I want to go over and have a look. If you want to leave, don't worry about me, I can go back by myself."
Saying that, she walked towards the direction of the tree shade.
Zheng Xiaona raised her voice and said: "Master Gu, these two villages seem to be impassable, there is a wall in between, and you have to go around on the main road outside."
She and her family and friends have also been here several times, and the villagers also said that there is no road here, and they have not found it.
But Gu Zhisang ignored the voice behind him.
She took out the usual box of white jade chess pieces from her backpack, and with a flick of her fingertips, the black and white chess pieces fell into the surrounding mud with an arc, and seemed to bounce off the gray air around them when they shot.
The others looked at each other in blank dismay. After a long while, several contestants raised their feet almost at the same time, and followed Gu Zhisang's figure.
Da Liu hesitated for a moment, then coughed lightly and said: "Then why don't you go back first, I will keep in touch with the contestants and the director, so as to save them from getting lost and not finding their way out."
The little brother who was carrying the camera and the other two auxiliary staff members shook their heads unwillingly, expressing that they would also follow.
This time, Gu Zhisang had discovered something. If some exciting news was discovered, they would not be able to see it when they left.
Li Chenghe at the other end of the communication: ...
"Just follow along and protect the equipment."
"By the way, remember to turn on the recording function of the backup camera."
When the figures of the crowd disappeared into the shade of the trees, the man who was hiding behind the window on the second floor and staring at the nearby small western-style building hurriedly took out his phone, and the other party panicked after connecting:
"What should I do, Brother Biao, those guys are **** running into the woods! They won't find anything, will they?"
In the interior of a certain house, the interior of a well-regulated earthen house looks magnificent from the outside.
Not long ago, Chen Xiangbiao, the head of Xiaoshi Village, who was kind and enthusiastic, was still wearing the dusty overalls and luxury brand slippers on his feet. He said with a gloomy expression and impatience:
"You bastard, the 'goods' have been shipped away, so what if they find something, we are law-abiding citizens! Fuck a bunch of meddling outsiders, hurry up and call the people over there and let them They shut the doors tightly and keep their mouths shut."
"If anyone reveals something, then we will all die together!"
The person at the other end nodded his head in a panic: "Yes, yes! The 'goods' have been disposed of haha, these idiots are late! Don't worry, Brother Biao, I have already said hello to that side."
"It's those people... I read online that they are amazing, so they won't really be found out, right?"
Chen Xiangbiao snorted coldly: "Don't worry about your guts. We are also covered by masters. The adults said that we should relax and we won't be found out. After all these years, when did we have any problems? God bless, can all these magic sticks pretending to be gods and ghosts on the Internet be more powerful than the real god?"
After hanging up the phone, he continued to dial another number full of irritability.
The person who had been out of contact for nearly a day finally answered the phone, speaking in vague Xia Guo dialect with a strange tone: "What's the matter, Brother Chen?"
Chen Xiangbiao yelled: "What are you doing, you bastard, I blew up your phone yesterday!"
The foreigner at the other end said: "When we crossed the border, we were entangled by people from the Xia Guo police, and we just escaped."
"What about the goods?"
"It's being counted, and it hasn't been officially sold out yet."
Chen Xiangbiao: "Are you **** blind yesterday? When you got the 'goods', I took my son and daughter away too! I'll tell you that batch of 'goods' don't move, pick out our two children and take care of them." , I have something to do here and I can't get over it right away..."
He got angry when he mentioned it.
Last night, when an overseas partner came to the village to pick up the 'goods', the family didn't take good care of the two children and let them run out laughing and joking.
I don't know what the brainless foreign businessman was thinking, but he took his two children away as "goods" he had received.
It was too late when Chen Xiangbiao's family found out, and the phone couldn't be connected. He was anxious and angry, and two blisters appeared on his mouth.
You must know that maybe these jobs that hinder future generations have been done too much. Although Chen Xiangbiao has earned a lot of money and made a fortune in recent years, he still has no children.
I don't know how many lovers I changed, and I went to the hospital countless times, but I couldn't get pregnant anyway, which made the elderly in the family think that the Chen family was going to die.
It was not easy to have a pair of twin siblings, they were the little ancestors of their Chen family who were as precious as pearls. Since they were taken away, the family's lovely wife and parents have been crying all night.
Chen Xiangbiao originally thought about sneaking over there to pick up the child tonight, because overseas is not a safe place after all.
Unexpectedly, Zheng Xiaona, who was haunting their village like a dog's skin and plaster, came again, and this time she brought some troublesome contestants from the "Spiritual Affair" program. The live broadcast was on, and there were tens of millions of eyes watching behind her.
He had no choice but to resist his anxiety and stand still, cursing Zheng Xiaona, Gu Zhisang and others countless times in his heart.
In fact, Chen Xiangbiao was a little guilty at first, but it just so happened that yesterday's backlog of 'goods' were all sold out and just sold, and now there is no clue left in the village, and they can't see anything.
In addition, as soon as the people from the program group arrived, he immediately called the number above, and the master who protected him told him not to be afraid, saying that these small people from the program group were not groundless.
Relieved, Chen Xiangbiao got up, and after cleaning his hands, he respectfully took out a statue of a **** with long and short arms from behind a piece of red cloth, and began to pray:
"Master Su God bless Xiaoshi Village with prosperity and prosperity, my son will come back as soon as possible..."
—
In the other forest, Gu Zhisang has already failed twice.
After turning around twice, she came to a wall again, and there was no way to go.
She frowned slightly. After her spiritual sense was blinded, she couldn't sense the correct airflow and magnetic field around her, and the gossip position was also chaotic, so naturally she couldn't break the formation.
But after two times of trial and error, she has gradually formed a correct picture of gossip and four images through the wrong orientation in her mind.
After taking a deep breath, Gu Zhisang held a few black and white chess pieces under his fingertips, ejected them again, and walked to the right.
The staff behind him and Da Liu were a little tired, especially the younger brother who was carrying the camera.
He gasped and whispered: "Could Miss Gu make a mistake? It's been half an hour..."
However, before he finished speaking, Gu Zhisang in front of him turned again and stopped in his tracks.
Only this time, a small path appeared in the wall that was supposed to have no gaps!
There is a connection between the two villages.
Da Liu and the staff all stared wide-eyed, and recorded this miraculous moment with a spare palm-sized camera, "Hey, where did this come from?!"
Zheng Xiaona was also extremely shocked.
The rest of the contestants had serious expressions on their faces.
Seeing this scene, they knew that the problem was probably the entire Xiaoshi Village!
