Chapter 195: Luo Wang Village

~8 min read 1,427 words

Clap clap!

Yan Ting clapped his hands, attracting everyone's attention.

"Everyone, after last night, I think everyone in their hearts already understands that if you want to leave this island, continuing to wait will not work."

"Those evil ghosts will kill us one by one; even if the ship comes, we may not necessarily be able to board it."

"But everyone doesn't need to worry too much; last night I dreamed of a red-robed deity, and He told me that the ghosts on the island are most afraid of being filmed; only by filming the ten types of ghosts on the island can we possibly get rid of the entanglement of the ghosts!"

A photographer behind Yan Bingbing raised his hand: "I testify, I also dreamed of it last night; that deity had a black face and a big beard, and He told me to protect my camcorder well..."

The words of these two people.

Wu Xian and several other Lotus Juanren were stunned; they had just wanted to hide the blood letter and guide everyone to discover it, but they didn't expect Yan Ting to also lead the topic to this aspect.

Lou Yaozong thought for a moment and took out the blood letter carefully prepared last night.

"This is what we discovered last night, and it also says that one must film ten types of ghosts to survive and leave."

Zhang Wei also opened the camcorder and showed everyone the Ball-Bouncing Ghost filmed last night, but he only showed the individual footage of the Ball-Bouncing Ghost and did not let Liao Yifang and Wu Xian be exposed.

Under multi-party corroboration.

Those terrified indigenous people also had to believe it.

But this meant that they had to actively look for ghosts at night; staying in place was already so dangerous, wouldn't actively looking for ghosts be even riskier?

The hotel lobby became noisy for a while.

Wu Xian didn't participate; anyway, after the noise, there was only one result: the indigenous people only had the path of participating in filming to survive.

He looked at Ren Cha, who was resting his head on his stomach, humming constantly, and currently not dead yet.

So he took Shi Ji and, like taking revenge, gorged on food and water until he was constantly burping before stopping.

No one knew how long Ren Cha could hold on.

Once Ren Cha died, the stomach ghost would be free; before the next unlucky person was parasitized by him, Wu Xian wouldn't eat a single thing.

After eating, Wu Xian wiped his mouth.

After saying a word to everyone, he left with Shi Ji.

There was still a long time before dark, and Wu Xian wanted to take advantage of this time to try his best to find deity statues and incense, in order to increase his strength before night fell.

Other Lotus Juanren also made similar choices.

As for those ordinary people who were involved, whether they could realize this opportunity depended on themselves.

In the previous Fudi, everyone's harvest did not interfere with each other, so Wu Xian didn't need to worry about others snatching his things.

But Amazing Island, like the Ghost Shadow Hostel, should have limited resources for deity worship props and deity statues.

The more others take, the less Wu Xian can find.

He wouldn't set traps for those newcomers, but he wouldn't specifically remind them either.

The two hadn't walked far.

When they saw Sun Qian carrying a lunch box and a mineral water bottle, running over panting.

"Can I go with you?"

Wu Xian wasn't surprised that he could catch up; although he was a bit unreliable at the beginning, after he actively acted as bait, his mentality had already entered the state of a Lotus Juanren.

"You can, but..."

Shi Ji took over the conversation, not letting Wu Xian be the bad guy alone.

"Let's agree beforehand, even if you follow, we won't specifically take care of you, and don't think about sharing our benefits just by standing on the side."

Hearing Shi Ji's words, Sun Qian smiled.

"Don't worry about that; I'm not here to freeload."

"I understood last night that in the Fudi, risk and return are equal, so I followed not to take advantage; I am at least a living person, and I can definitely help you."

"Then follow along."

Wu Xian turned around, and the Diamond Four popped out of his sleeve.

The talisman rubbed on this playing card was the Treasure Seeking Technique; rather than searching aimlessly, it was better to use the Treasure Seeking Technique first.

Whoosh!

A corner of the Diamond Four suddenly turned red and slowly smoldered; a wisp of white smoke drifted against the wind toward the other side of the island.

The direction pointed by the white smoke was where the treasure was located.

The three of them walked quickly.

The Treasure Seeking Technique could only be used twice; before the half playing card burned out, they had to find the target.

On the way, Sun Qian was very curious about Wu Xian's playing cards; Wu Xian didn't wait for him to ask and introduced him to some common knowledge about deity worship; this knowledge was what Lou Yaozong hadn't told him at the beginning.

Sun Qian listened very carefully.

First, he had yearned for it, and second, this knowledge could save lives at critical moments.

After Wu Xian finished speaking.

Sun Qian also talked about himself.

The reason he loved to fantasize was because his reality was already cruel.

His father was a drunkard, and his mother was a gambler.

The number of messed-up things that happened from childhood to adulthood was simply countless; being cursed by his mother and beaten by his father was a daily occurrence.

Once, someone came to the house to collect debts, and his father even deliberately left him at home, letting the child negotiate with the debt collector, trying to make the other party soften their heart.

In this environment, Sun Qian could only persist in reality by entering a world of fantasy.

Before, Lou Yaozong scolded him.

Did he want to leave his parents outside and rot and stink in the Fudi himself?

The answer in Sun Qian's heart was.

He wanted to.

So he never felt that liking fantasy was a bad thing; on the contrary, he felt that if a person had no fantasy, what was the difference from a walking corpse?

Whoosh!

The smoke on the playing card disappeared.

They had already reached their destination.

This was the other side of Amazing Island, a small village that wasn't big, with only a dozen or so mud and grass houses scattered about; white smoke was rising from the chimneys, and the residents in the village should be cooking.

Sun Qian looked surprised: "Didn't Yan Ting say that no one had come to this island for ten years? Why is there a small village here?"

Wu Xian sighed.

"Don't worry about the village problem for now; haven't you noticed that we are missing a person?"

Sun Qian shuddered suddenly; he hurriedly scanned around, only to find that unknowingly, Shi Ji had disappeared; they were chatting while walking, and Shi Ji even chimed in occasionally, how could he have abruptly disappeared?

"Where... where did he go?"

Wu Xian was silent for a while: "Maybe it's not that he disappeared, but that the two of us disappeared."

Suddenly, the sound of a gong came from the village.

An old man called out everyone in the village, a total of dozens of men and women, surrounding Wu Xian and the other.

These people were all wearing Tang suits of various colors, printed with the words Fortune, Longevity, Emolument, Joy, and Wealth wrapped in circles, wearing melon-skin caps, their faces white with a hint of red, especially the cheek positions, which were red like tomatoes.

The old man beating the gong came up and grabbed Wu Xian's hand: "Welcome to Luo Wang Island; it's been a long time since strangers came to the island; we must fulfill our duties as hosts today and treat our distinguished guests well."

Luo Wang Island...

Was this the previous name of Amazing Island?

Did strangers refer to unfamiliar people, or living people?

Additionally, these dozens of people, hundreds of eyes, were all looking at Wu Xian enthusiastically, but no one paid attention to Sun Qian.

Wu Xian had many doubts in his heart.

But he temporarily went along with these people and followed them into the village.
