Chapter 1342: Ruan Shenglin’s Uncharacteristic Uneasiness

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Seeing that Master Chi didn’t speak or move, Ruan Shenglin and Yang Kun became even more anxious. Yang Kun hurriedly said, “Master… Master Chi.

“I really… really think there’s something wrong with that True Buddha Lord in this village. Many people in our film crew have already invited that thing in. What should we do now?”

Yang Kun really regretted helping Shenglin signing onto this movie back then and following him to this strange village to film. Director Wang was famous, and an opportunity to star in his movie was hard to come by, but could fame compare with one’s life?

If he stayed any longer, he was really afraid that he would die, and he was also afraid that he would run into something strange for real. Moreover, the more he heard about this village, the more agitated he became, especially when he occasionally saw the obsessed expressions of this village and how they believed in the so-called True Buddha Lord.

The more friendly the village was, the more suspicious he became.

Fortunately, he had bought a lot of talismans from Master Chi back then, so he felt a little more at ease. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to calm down now or stay in this village a second longer.

As soon as Yang Kun finished speaking, Ruan Shenglin added, “Master… Master Chi, there’s one more thing. Can you help me tell Director Wang how serious the matter is and persuade him to take the film crew out of this village? I tried to persuade him, but Director Wang doesn’t believe in such things!”

At this point, Ruan Shenglin looked bitter and flustered.

Chi Shuyan finally understood why they were looking for her. Hearing Ruan Shenglin’s request, she shook her head and refused. “Since your Director Wang doesn’t even believe you, do you think he’ll believe me?”

Ruan Shenglin choked!

Chi Shuyan thought of something and narrowed her eyes at Yang Kun. “Did Miss Qin also invite that True Buddha Lord in?”

It took Yang Kun and Ruan Shenglin a while to realize who Master Chi was referring to. Who else could it be but Qin Qing?

Ruan Shenglin nodded and replied, “I heard that she did!”

Yang Kung had confirmed before that Qin Qing had indeed invited that True Buddha Lord in, and he said firmly, “Master Chi, she did!”

But there was some puzzlement in his eyes.

He and Shenglin were very baffled. They initially thought that since Qin Qing had given Shenglin’s wife and child that Buddha pendant back then, she should know how powerful and strange this Buddha pendant was. Who would have thought that she would also invite this True Buddha Lord or whatever in?

If it wasn’t for the fact that Qin Qing had indeed given the Buddha pendant to Shenglin’s wife back then, Yang Kun and Ruan Shenglin would have wondered if they had misunderstood her.

When Chi Shuyan heard this, her eyes darkened and she sounded doubtful. “Oh?”

She confirmed that the two of them were telling the truth. Besides, there was no need for Ruan Shenglin and Yang Kun to lie to her. She really had some doubts. She had suspected before that Qin Qing had a close relationship with the person behind this Buddha pendant, but now, she wasn’t sure.

Ruan Shenglin was still mulling over the matter of Director Wang not leaving the village and inviting the Buddha statue in, and he couldn’t help but ask again, “Master Chi, are you really not able to get Director Wang to leave the village? To be honest, I’m quite uneasy now. Also, the village chief was pestering us all today to invite that so-called True Buddha Lord in.” He and Brother Kun had almost been scared out of their wits by the Buddha pendant before – how could they dare touch that thing?

It hadn’t been easy for him to find an excuse to put it off just now, but this was the second time. It was hard not to make the village chief suspicious.

He didn’t know if he was thinking too much, but the village chief’s expression had been very strange when he looked at Ruan Shenglin just now. His tone was a bit searching, and he even asked Ruan Shenglin if he had seen the True Buddha Lord before.

Although Ruan Shenglin immediately replied that he hadn’t, he wasn’t sure if the village chief believed him or not. Recalling how the village chief had looked at him, an inexplicable chill and an ominous feeling spread in his heart.

This was all his own feelings, and Ruan Shenglin couldn’t say much to Master Chi. What he hoped for the most now was for his wife to leave the village immediately.

Chi Shuyan took in Ruan Shenglin’s subtle expression. Seeing that he was unusually uneasy today, she had some guesses. Yang Kun hadn’t gone with the village chief, so he didn’t know what Ruan Shenglin was feeling or had encountered. His face was calmer, but he had the same thoughts as Ruan Shenglin. They both wanted to leave the village immediately. He asked in a hopeful and cautious tone, “Master Chi, are you really… unable to persuade Director Wang?” After a pause, he probed, “Is it possible to continue putting off inviting that True Buddha in if we stay a few more days?”

Chi Shuyan was quite baffled. They clearly knew that staying in this village was probably a dead end, but she still had to persuade Director Wang to leave with them before they were willing to leave. She felt that the two people in front of her probably thought that things were too simple and easy; they had no idea what they would face if they stayed.

Speaking of which, it wasn’t the Buddha statue that they should be afraid of, but the thing behind it.

As for persuading Director Wang to leave the village with them, she really couldn’t do anything. Of course, even if she could, she wasn’t a saint. If she went over now to warn them, and a whole bunch of people left that very day, the enemy would definitely be tipped off. It would be strange if she didn’t look suspicious.

It was one thing if they came after her, but how would she be able to forgive herself if Qi Zhenbai, Wu Haoming and Xiao Shan got dragged into it?

Moreover, she had already done her best by warning the other party beforehand. Whether they believed her or not was their own business, and they had to bear the consequences of their own decisions.

Chi Shuyan didn’t plan to interfere. She was about to refuse, when she thought of Qin Qing. Even if she disliked this woman immensely, she felt that she had to go and see for herself exactly what the woman was like. She corrected herself. “Okay, I’ll go to the film crew with you when I have time, but I’m not free now. I’ll go take a look in the afternoon!”
