This system is outrageous.

The two got off the car at a crowded place and said goodbye to the driver. He Yixuan first called home to report his safety to Qiao Linghua.

"Pack up, bring me some clothes and more money, and we'll meet at the noodle shop in the film and television city."

After hanging up the phone, He Yixuan remembered that he had no money on him. Just when he was feeling embarrassed, his brother took out a banknote.

"I still have some money. Is the film city safe?"

He Yixuan shook his head. "I don't know. The safest place I can think of right now is the film and television city."

"My name is Tong Jiayang."

He Yixuan smiled. "Just say you're my assistant, they won't make things difficult for you."

Tong Jiayang was shocked by everything he saw when he came to the film and television city for the first time. It was different from the scenic spot he imagined. Although it was dark now, the lights were still on, and the people were busy with their own things without even glancing at the people around them.

Various ancient costumes and modern clothes intersect, as if people from different eras have traveled through time and space to meet here. The two walked all the way inside, and from time to time someone looked back at them, but no one paid too much attention.

He Yixuan brought Tong Jiayang to the extras gathering place near their crew. There were men, women, young and old here. Everyone didn't know each other, but they supported each other because they were all pursuing their dreams here.

Seeing He Yixuan walking in with her hat lowered, a girl screamed excitedly.

"He Yixuan is here." The girl's voice startled the people who were resting with their eyes closed nearby. Although they were dissatisfied with the girl for disturbing their rest, they did not have enough energy to scold the girl.

He Yixuan put her index finger to her lips and made a gesture to keep quiet. The girl simply thought that she had disturbed everyone's rest and didn't think much about it.

"I'm here to look for someone. Have you seen Sister Cat?"

Under the camera, the wrinkled costumes were piled dirty on the ground, and Ye Fei seemed to smell a strange odor coming from them.

"Tsk tsk, extras can be considered to be earning hard-earned money."

The woman called Sister Cat quickly walked in from outside, and when she saw He Yixuan, she smiled widely.

"Mr. He, how come you have time to come and see me? Let's talk outside. It's too chaotic here."

The woman brought the two men to the back alley. Not many people came here, and when it was busy, it was used as a temporary changing room by the extras.

"Is there some good news?" The woman looked at He Yixuan with a smile.

"Can you find us two sets of clothes for extras?"

The woman looked back and forth at the two of them in confusion, and only after confirming that the person in front of her was indeed the popular He Yixuan did she ask tentatively.

"What are you guys doing here, role playing?"

He Yixuan bit his back teeth and squeezed out a few words from between his teeth.

"We have offended someone, let's find a place to hide."

Sister Mao hangs around in the film and television industry, and she quickly understood that He Yixuan had offended some big financial sponsor.

"Oh, that's all. No problem, no problem. But if you have any good things in the future, you have to think of me."

He Yixuan nodded quickly and agreed. The two of them picked out two barely acceptable ones from the pile of dirty clothes and put them on outside their clothes.

"Is this possible? It's been a long time since I washed these clothes."

He Yixuan glanced at the pile of clothes in the box on the ground and couldn't help sighing.

“It has never been washed since it left the factory.”

After changing their clothes, the two went into the room where the extras were resting and found a quiet place to sit down.

After the shock and the long hike, the two of them quickly fell asleep after relaxing.

Ye Fei pointed at the two and started to complain. "Did they forget to meet Qiao Linghua? They were supposed to meet, but they were sleeping soundly."

In this busy rest area for extras, no one noticed that the person sleeping in the corner was the popular star He Yixuan. After a night of chaos, the extras were tired and looked for places to rest. Qiao Linghua carried her packed luggage and went to each rest area for extras, and finally found He Yixuan.

Seeing the lingering fear on his slightly pale face, Qiao Linghua gently covered him with a blanket with heartache.

Qiao Linghua's movements were gentle, but they still woke up the two people. She looked at He Yixuan in front of her and smiled.

"We haven't been followed by anyone along the way, right? Let's hide here for a few days first. The trouble we encountered this time is a bit complicated, and I can't explain it to you right now."

Qiao Linghua had infinite trust in him, nodded silently and lowered her voice.

"I'll go buy you something. I guess you haven't eaten yet."

Tong Jiayang looked at Qiao Linghua's back and nudged He Yixuan with his elbow. "Your girlfriend,"

He Yixuan nodded. "We have been together for many years, don't spread it around."

Tong Jiayang rolled his eyes. "Just survive first."

The two looked at each other and smiled, saying nothing.

The early morning sun outside shone on the land of the film and television city, and a new day of shooting began.

Qiao Linghua came back with steaming buns. The extras had already gotten up and were getting ready. The three of them hiding in the corner seemed a little out of place.

"Which group are you from? Why are you still wasting time? The director will scold you soon."

Qiao Linghua turned to the man and nodded. "I'll be there soon."

Seeing that there was no one else in the room, Tong Jiayang carefully closed the window next to him.

"I don't know what they are, but they are not human beings at all. I can't understand them, and I don't want to understand them."

He Yixuan reached out and patted Tong Jiayang's shoulder, soothing him to calm him down.

"There are so many people here, it's so chaotic, they won't be able to find us in a short time. Even if they can smell something, we probably can't smell it now."

Qiao Linghua stared at her but didn't ask a single question. However, Tong Jiayang couldn't sit still anymore and wanted to tell her the previous story.

"Don't tell her that. Don't scare her."

"Okay, okay, I won't tell you. Anyway, be careful of anyone who comes looking for him."

Tong Jiayang ate the buns and planned to continue sleeping for a while.

"Linghua, go out and investigate. We'll hide here first. Come back immediately if anything strange happens."

Qiao Linghua nodded and pushed the bun towards He Yixuan. "Eat one more. I'll go out and get some information."

Tong Jiayang sighed as he watched Qiao Linghua walk out. "I still think I should tell her. At least I want her to know how cruel that group of monsters is."

The two argued for a long time, but in the end neither of them convinced the other, so they just went to sleep on their sides.

Qiao Ling asked around and heard a shocking piece of news. Although she didn't know if it was the same as what they said, she quickened her pace and trotted back.

He Yixuan opened his eyes after being shaken awake, and seeing Qiao Linghua with a grim expression in front of him, he sat up nervously.

"I just heard them discussing that a crew went missing while filming on location."

He Yixuan blinked blankly. "She's missing. Is there no way to contact her?"

"No, I heard from them that some people saw some props and costumes in the mountains, but no one was found. The police found the production company based on the script they saw at the scene, and found that no one in the crew could be contacted."

He Yixuan woke up Tong Jiayang who was sleeping soundly on the other side.

"They only take one person at a time, they can't take hundreds of people at once."

Tong Jiayang looked at the two of them blankly. "What are you talking about?"

Ye Fei carefully recalled the crew he saw when he first came to this small world, and did not find anything like a black hole. It can be basically concluded that they were not taken away by those witches, and it seems unrealistic to take so many people at once.

In the picture, Tong Jiayang was obviously confused after listening to Qiao Linghua's description.

"I've been in contact with them for so many years, and I've never seen them take away so many people at once. I think they must have lost their way in the mountains."

Tong Jiayang curled his lips in disdain.

"But I heard that more than half a month has passed since someone discovered something in the mountains. If someone really got lost in the mountains, then... "

He Yixuan and Tong Jiayang looked at each other. "Have you heard where they got into trouble?"

"I heard it was a nature reserve outside the city. They had reported it before filming, but now there is only a piece of stuff left. No one was found. I heard that even...the body was not found."

Although the four of them didn't know whether this incident was related to the witch, the current plot did seem worthy of the adjective "horror film."

"It seems they were right. This place has really turned into a horror movie."
