Chapter 458: The Broken Statue of Guan Gong

Yin Xinyue smiled and said, "Brother Zhang, you will always be the most handsome in my heart."

I asked Li Mazi: "How is it, do you want to play a supporting role?"

Li Mazi laughed: "It's great to be on TV. I'll show me a few more faces when I go to school. Xiao Meng also has face when she goes to school! Not only can anyone make TV series."

"Then I'll talk to the director later." Yin Xinyue nodded.

"By the way, where will we stay at night?" Li Mazi asked.

"A bus picks up people from the crew to stay in the hotel at night. If you want to stay here, you can do it, all the houses are empty." Yin Xinyue said.

"Where are the people who lived here?" Li Mazi asked.

"I moved away for the time being. The crew rented the entire town for filming! I often go to film all over the country, but it's okay. It's up to you two." Yin Xinyue looked at me and Li Mazi with a smile.

I think it's too much to take a bus back and forth to sleep. If there are beds and quilts in the town, it's okay to spend a night here.

Team Leader Xu parked the car in front of a barn, which was a temporary warehouse for storing props. He called a few people to help move antiques and started working tonight to make props.

We didn't bother and went straight to the director. On the way, we saw a large dry pool with cordons around us, so we asked Yin Xinyue: "Is there something wrong here?"

"It's nothing, I just found a few corpses." Yin Xinyue said.

"Ah?" I was shocked.

"It's not what you thought. The pond suddenly dried two days ago. There were several skeletons in the mud at the bottom of the pond that had been dead for many years. The crew called the police. After investigation, it was found that it was a dead body hundreds of years ago and some cultural relics were found." Yin Xinyue quickly explained.

"Maybe it was the body of the tomb robber?" Li Mazi said from the side.

I stopped to observe the trend of the nearby mountains. The place has good feng shui and is a good treasure land. So I asked Yin Xinyue: "What are the surnames of most people in this town?"

"They're all surnamed Gao!" Yin Xinyue replied.

I instantly concluded that the residents of this town were probably descendants of the tomb guardians. In ancient times, as tomb guardians, the court would issue many discounts, such as tax exemptions and various subsidies, so a town gradually formed.

The pool suddenly dried up, which is definitely not a good sign. I thought to myself, don’t let any more leaks happen, then we will become Conan, and something will happen wherever we go.

Yin Xinyue took us to the director and briefly introduced it. Of course, she did not mention our true identity, but only said that she was an antique businessman.

The director agreed to the rent very readily and asked me: "Boss Zhang has been making antiques for so many years, have he studied some strange antiques?"

I heard something in his words, frowned and asked, "Which aspect are you referring to?"

"It's the kind of person who can change his fortune." The director said mysteriously.

Isn’t this a yin thing? I immediately became interested: “I have some research on this aspect!”

"That's great." He said excitedly: "Can you help me see something?"

After I agreed, the director took us to a small room. I saw a shrine on the table, but there was no statue of God. He took out a red cloth bag from the drawer and opened it. It was a broken statue of Guan Erye inside.

"This is an antique my master gave me back then. It was very effective. With its blessing, I have filmed several movies in the past few years and they have sold well. It suddenly broke two days ago. I was worried that it would not be a good sign!" The director said worriedly.

"When did it break?" I asked.

"After the opening ceremony, I didn't dare to tell everyone that I was afraid that the morale of the army would be unstable." The director said.

I took the fragments of Guan Erye’s statue and put them on my palm to play with it. From a cross-section, this statue has not been a long history, it is a modern industrial product. The director actually treats it as a treasure. I think most of it is psychological.

But it is indeed not a good thing that Master Guan Er breaks up, which shows that there is a powerful evil creature nearby, and even the Martial Saint Guan Yu can't suppress it.

"Has there anything strange happened to the crew recently?" I asked.

"Strange things..." the director thought for a while and said, "There was no strange things, but something happened. The originally planned male protagonist had a car accident two days ago and broke his leg. There was no way to let the second male protagonist be the male protagonist."

"Why haven't I heard of it?" Yin Xinyue asked in surprise.

"Miss Yin happened to be away at that time."

"All these things happened after the pool was killed?" I quickly found the key point of the problem.

"Yes, yes, that's it." The director nodded repeatedly, and his eyes changed when he looked at me, as if he was facing an old god who was as precautionary as gods.

I had a general look in my heart, took out a business card from my pocket and handed it over and said, "To be honest, I do this business."

The director held the business card and was puzzled: "I would like to ask, what is a yin object?"

I explained it to him, and the director was immediately overjoyed and said that Guan Erye was just a dark thing and hoped that I could repair it.

I was a little amused. First of all, he was not a ghost at all, and secondly, I couldn't repair statues. But I knew that the psychological effect was strong, especially since this drama had just been filmed for a short time, it could not damage the morale of the army.

So I coaxed him and said, "I can do a way to invite Erye to another statue to bless him with a great show." The director is very grateful."

After saying goodbye, Li Mazi sarcastically said: "This director is so funny. He uses a street stall product as a treasure. If this is considered an antique, my kimchi jar is all national-level protected cultural relics..."

"We will go to the town early tomorrow morning to buy something." I said lightly.

"Brother Zhang, you're out of here. I'll buy whatever you need." Li Mazi said with a guarantee.

"No, I want to find out something by the way!" I said.

We had dinner in a large yard in the evening. The chef of the crew made a large table of dishes, but Li Mazi and I were not familiar with each other, so we had to sit next to Yin Xinyue.

All of the people here are the main creators. No one of the actors came. A group of men drank some wine and bragged about whether they had worked with a big name before. Later, they began to dig out some news about the entertainment industry, which was all explosive news, refreshing my understanding of some directors and stars.

"The entertainment industry is so exciting." I said to Yin Xinyue.

"Celebrities are also ordinary people. No one is perfect. How can they have no shortcomings? I am present today, so they are embarrassed to talk about more exciting things." Yin Xinyue said with a smile.

"Dear, do you want to go to the bathroom?" I joked.

"Go to you!" Yin Xinyue smiled and hit me.

After dinner, a drama agency took us to find a private house with two bedrooms. The environment was very good and there was no entertainment at night, so we turned off the lights and went to bed early.

Li Mazi and I slept in the same room. He drank too much and soon started snoring, which made me unable to fall asleep. At this time, Yin Xinyue sent a text message: "Brother Zhang, come here!"

I quickly put on my clothes and went to her room. Yin Xinyue wrapped herself in the quilt and looked pale. She said that after she fell asleep just now, she felt something was blowing into her face. She woke up in a flash, and then she heard footsteps disappearing outside the door.

I looked out the window and saw that there was the pool outside. There was probably something bad about it. Yin Xinyue hugged me and said, "I'm so scared. Brother Zhang, stay here and accompany me."

"Okay! I'll go back to my house to get something." I said.

Yin Xinyue didn't let me go. I turned on the light and saw a bag of salt on the shelf. It was already damp and clumped. I poured out the salt and crushed it and sprinkled it on the door frame and window ling.

Then he found a kerosene lamp, wiped a little ash from the glass with his fingers, and wiped Yin Xinyue's left and right shoulders and eyebrows.

I lie next to Yin Xinyue in my clothes, and she asked weakly: "Is this enough?"

"Okay, even if there are lonely ghosts, they will walk around this house, but..."
