After participating in the metaphysical variety show, I exploded

After interviewing several victims, Zheng Zhaoyu and Jun Xiuyan returned to the cultural theater together when it was almost time. The OB truck of "Who is Shaman King" is waiting for the contestants there.

"Welcome back!" Chu Gui enthusiastically opened his arms towards Zheng Zhaoyu and Jun Xiuyan, "Have you found out the true face of the water monkey? What is the truth about the continuous drowning incident? Please tell the audience your answer."

Jun Xiuyan remained silent, preoccupied, his mind was full of the note that Xiaoxuan gave him.Why did he have to take the ferry at night?What does the ferry have to do with drownings?The drowning people fell from the shore, not from the ferry...

His silence just gave Zheng Zhaoyu a chance.This kind of summary statement can greatly increase popularity. After all, many impatient audiences will skip the investigation process and go directly to the conclusion.Zheng Zhaoyu was originally worried that Jun Xiuyan would steal the conversation from him, but now that Jun Xiuyan doesn't say a word, that's exactly what he wants.

"We interviewed several victims of the drowning incident, listened to them describe the situation at the time of the incident, and went to the police station to watch the surveillance video at the time of the incident. It can be clearly seen from the video that the victims fell by themselves. Those who entered the water were not pushed or pulled. In the videos of water monkeys that were circulated on the Internet in the past, at least there was a vague shadow, so everyone mistakenly thought it was a water monkey. But this time there was no shadow. So I It is believed that there should be no supernatural factors involved in the drowning incident. It was purely an accident."

As he spoke, Zheng Zhaoyu showed a bright smile towards the camera.A nympho barrage floated across the screen in the live broadcast room.

"Summer has abundant rain, rivers swell, rivers are slippery, and more people swim in the water. Therefore, statistically speaking, there are far more drowning accidents in summer than in winter. Summer is approaching, and the high incidence of drowning accidents is also reasonable. In the past, the media rarely reported these small incidents. However, due to various factors this year, the media reported a large number of drowning incidents, which gave everyone the illusion that there were more drowning incidents in Qinghe Town during this period."

Zheng Zhaoyu turned to Jun Xiuyan: "Xiuyan, what do you think?"

"Hmm... that's right, that's right." Jun Xiuyan replied perfunctorily.

Zheng Zhaoyu spread his hands to Chu Gui: "This is the result of our investigation."

"Okay! Then wait for all the contestants to arrive and wait for the judges' judgment!"

[Xiaoyu is right, there are no water monkeys in the world! 】

[It's all the unscrupulous media's fault, now the media practitioners are becoming more and more unscrupulous, reporting everything just to win attention! 】

[It seems that everyone thinks that there are so many murders of wives now, is it because men have become bad now.In fact, men are the same no matter what era they are in, it's just that there are so many cases of killing wives being reported now.In the past when communications were underdeveloped, many cases were unknown and buried in history. 】

Zheng Zhaoyu and the others came back from the first group. After informing the host of his investigation conclusion, he sat under the awning temporarily built by Lubo Company for the contestants, sipping iced coffee leisurely.

"Xiao Le and the others seem to be very slow this time." He said leisurely, "I hope they didn't go astray."

"Director, it's bad!" the assistant called Jian Yi anxiously, "It seems that something happened to Le Qinian's split screen!"

Jian Yidao was paying attention to the split screen of another group of players. Hearing what the assistant said, he hurriedly switched to the split screen of Le Qinian.

There is only a well, a square, and a temple in the picture, and there is no one in sight.

"What's going on?" Jane was puzzled.

The assistant wiped off his sweat: "Just now the photographer Luo turned around, and when he turned around, Le Qinian and the others disappeared!"

"Disappear?" Jian Yi said that the deep gully between the eyebrows was enough to trap mosquitoes to death.He picked up the walkie-talkie and contacted Ronaldinho: "What's going on?"

Xiao Luo's anxious voice came from the walkie-talkie: "Brother Le and the others suddenly disappeared! I searched everywhere!"

"Have they left the temple?"

"I just went to ask Miao Zhu, and he said he kept looking at the door, and no one left!"

"Could it have gone through the back door?"

"The back door is locked!"

"Could it be hidden in some house in the temple, and you didn't look carefully?"

"There are only a few rooms in this temple, and I've searched for them all! They can't grow wings and fly away, right? And Brother Le and the others have no reason to abandon me!"

Five big words popped up in Jian Yidao's mind instantly: Murder in a secret room!

No, no, Le Qinian and the others must still be alive, so it is not a "murder case", but a "disappearance case".But that temple is definitely a huge secret room!All the exits are either locked or under surveillance. Unless they can fly into the sky and escape from the ground, how did they disappear mysteriously from the temple?

Last time there were only two twins in distress, but this time there were four of them!If something happened to them... Jian Yidao's eyes went dark.Then he...he can only resign.Moreover, if such a big accident happened in his reality show, his career as a director might come to an end...

Why do inexplicable accidents happen every episode of this show? !

When this episode is over, Jian Yidao must find a temple or a Taoist temple, and make a good obeisance!

"Xiao Zhang, Xiao Li," Jian Yidao called several staff members, "Let's go find the four of them together!"

Not far away, Jun Xiuyan and Zheng Zhaoyu heard their conversation.Jun Xiuyan's heart skipped a beat.He is now convinced that there is some unknown secret hidden in Qinghe Town, could Le Qinian's disappearance be related to that secret?In case something happens to him...

Jun Xiuyan jumped up like a rabbit and rushed to the director: "I'll go find someone with you!"

Zheng Zhaoyu saw that he was so active, and it didn't seem good for him to stay out of the matter, so he also said, "Yes, there are many people." He didn't care about Le Qinian's life or death at all, but if he found Le Qinian first, he would definitely win. Love from fans.Think about it—he, Zheng Zhaoyu, saved the "omnipotent" Le Qinian.Now the audience should know who to vote for, right?

Jane also thought for a moment.With so many of them acting together, it shouldn't be a problem, right?

"Then let's go to the River Temple!" he said.

"We may have entered another dimension." Le Qinian said quietly.

The twins opened their mouths. "Like...like the parallel world in the movie?" Jin Piaopiao asked.

Vincenzo was in no hurry. "Our Christianity believes that there is a buffer zone between heaven and hell, where the souls who have not yet been judged after death gather. That place is called 'Limbo Prison'. It is the border of the world, the living An untouchable place. Could this be Lingbo Prison?"

Le Qinian doesn't know much about their Christian teachings, but this place is indeed a foreign land, almost exactly the same as the real world, but can't touch people in the real world.

What was it, or who was it, that pulled them into this foreign land?And for what purpose?Is there something you don't want them to find, or is it the other way around - something you want them to find?

The flustered Xiao Luo returned to the main hall because he couldn't find them.Probably to see if they are hiding in the main hall?

"Let's take a look around too." Le Qinian suggested, "Maybe the breakthrough to escape from this space is hidden somewhere."

The other three couldn't think of a better way, so they could only agree.They followed Xiao Luo into the main hall.It was as gloomy and gloomy here as when they entered, and the statues of shrimp soldiers and crab generals stared at them maliciously, making people feel as if they had come to life.

They walked through the main hall and out the main gate.

The moment he stepped out of the threshold, Le Qinian instinctively felt the surrounding space change.

The light disappeared instantly, and he stepped into darkness.

He was about to tell the twins and Vincenzo behind him to stop, but it was too late.The three walked out of the main hall and stood shoulder to shoulder with him.

"What is this place?" Vincenzo frowned, subconsciously holding the cross on his chest.

The twins hugged Le Qinian's arm.Le Qinian felt that their small bodies were trembling, but neither of the two girls expressed their fear.

"How about... let's go back." Jin Piaopiao whispered.

She turned around, but was shocked to find that the main hall had completely disappeared!

The four of them just floated in the boundless darkness.

Snapped!

There was the sound of a switch being turned on overhead.Bright beams of light descended from the sky, illuminating the surroundings as brightly as day.

However, that is not natural light, but artificial light.

Le Qinian looked around, her beautiful peach eyes immediately widened.

This is not the square of the River Temple at all.The stone brick floor under my feet turned into a wooden floor at some point, and colored tape was pasted in some places.They turned around, only to see that the main hall had become a flat painting, reminiscent of the backdrop of a stage play.

Isn't the place where they are just like a stage?

Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!

Lights gradually lit up overhead, illuminating the distance.

Row after row of seats emerged from the boundless darkness surrounding them, forming a circular arc around the stage.But unlike ordinary theaters, those seats are monstrously huge.Compared with them, the stage is as small as a miniature sand table.

What kind of audience needs such huge seats?giant?

"Do you think this place is very similar to Qinghe Town Cultural Theater?" Le Qinian asked.

Vincenzo shrugged: "I never went in."

He looked at the twins: "What do you say?"

The twins looked at each other. "It seems... a bit like..."

Except the seats are horribly tall.

Suddenly, a figure emerged from those seats.

They were all dressed in suits or long skirts, dressed like an upper-class elite, with white masks on their faces, so that people could not see their appearance.The mouth of the mask opened in a crescent shape, the corners of the mouth almost reaching the ears, and the smile looked extremely eerie and treacherous under the dim light.

And the eyes of the masks... the holes in the eyes should reveal the eyes of the audience, but the eyes of each mask are pitch black, as if the audience had no eyeballs at all.

clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap...

Warm applause resounded throughout the theater, enveloping the four of them like a sea tide.

The four of them took a step back in unison, turned their backs to each other, handed their backs to each other, and stared at the weird audience warily.

"Actors please take their seats!" A mechanical voice came from the darkness.It sounded like a voice synthesized by a computer, and men and women could not be distinguished.

A man in a brown vest appeared on the stage.He, or she, is wearing a fedora and holding a megaphone.Like the audience, he wears a mask, but instead of smiling, his mask has no mouth at all.

This outfit reminded Le Qinian of "the director".The only director he had really met was Yan Yu, but that person never dressed like this.This kind of dress is more like the director in people's stereotype.

The eyes of the director's mask were also pitch black.

Seeing that the four of them were motionless, the director raised the horn and shouted, "What's the matter with you four? The performance is about to start, why haven't you even changed into your costumes yet?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a movable hanger appeared in front of the four of them, with four costumes hanging on it.

The first costume was golden and covered with sequins, and when illuminated by the flashing lights, it was enough to dazzle people's eyes.Standing on the stage wearing this kind of clothes, it will definitely be as dazzling as a colorful light ball in a disco.

The second costume is a gray Chinese tunic suit, ordinary and unremarkable.

The third costume is a Hanfu long gown with a black background and a gold border, and a Tenglong with its teeth and claws embroidered with gold thread on the skirt.

The fourth is the most conspicuous.It was a bright red wedding dress with the most exquisite workmanship. The upper body was embroidered with flower patterns with gold thread, and the lower body was embroidered with phoenix patterns.

The director yelled into the loudspeaker again: "Hurry up and change your clothes! The first act of "Qinghe Youqing" is about to begin!"

The four looked at each other and said in unison, ""Qinghe Youqing"?!"

Is it that terrible stage play they watched in the cultural theater?

Le Qinian picked up each of the costumes and looked at them: "They should correspond to the four main characters in the play—the fairy, the hero, the river god, and the heroine, right?"

"Do we have to play the characters in the play and play the whole play before we can leave here?" Jin Piaopiao asked.

Vincenzo has no intention of wasting time here.He ignored the director, walked directly to the edge of the stage, and jumped off.

Le Qinian stretched his neck and found that his figure had disappeared from the stage!

In the next second, Vincenzo walked out from the gate of the Banhe Temple in the background.

He stared at the other three with an anxious look on his face.

"...It seems that this is a circular space, we can't get out."

"I can only try the road of acting." Le Qinian pondered.

So here comes the question - how do the four of them divide their roles?

Among the four roles, only male protagonists and immortals are male.Although the clothes of the river god are men's clothes, Le Qinian already knows that the river god is female, so this role is excluded.

Immortal's costume is too rustic and gaudy, if you want him to wear that stuff, you might as well ask him to run naked!

Then the only options left are...

In the blink of an eye, Le Qinian and Vincenzo rushed towards the actor's costume at the same time.

"Hey! I got it first! I want to play the leading role!" Vincenzo gritted his teeth.

"We got it together! Wouldn't it be nice for you to act as a fairy? The golden hair matches your hair very well!" Le Qinian never let go.

"I'm a foreign friend, just let me go!" Vincenzo began to play tricks on his identity.

"Stop doing this! This is Huaguo! Do as the Romans do, do you understand?" Le Qinian did not give in.

"Aren't you Hua people the most particular about respecting the old and caring for the young? I'm young and you should let me go!"

"Bah! Then why don't you respect the old!"

"Are you admitting in disguise that you are 'that person'?"

"I do not have!"

The twins next to each other exchanged a speechless look.

"So after becoming an adult, will he become that kind of virtue?" Jin Piaopiao sighed.

"My lord's world is really dirty!" Jin Miaomiao sighed.

Neither Le Qinian nor Vincenzo can compete with each other.Finally he said: "Why don't we draw lots, it's the most fair!"

"Okay! Catch it! I'm European, so I'll ask you if you're afraid!"

"I still know metaphysics, who is afraid of you!"

There was nothing to draw lots on the stage, but they carried the materials assigned by the program group.Page numbers are printed on each page of the document.Le Qinian tore off the corner of the first four pages with the page numbers printed on it, and crumpled the small pieces of paper into balls.

"The one who got 1 played the male lead," he said, "The one who got 2 played the female lead. The one who got 3 played the river god. The one who got 4 played the fairy. Are you okay?"

Vincenzo raised his hand with a big opinion. "You pass the ball of paper to Piao Piao! Draw lots in your hand, I'm afraid you'll make a fool of yourself!"

"You...! The heart of a villain is the heart of a gentleman!" Le Qinian gouged out the blond exorcist with hatred.

Francis, look at your fine descendants!

He handed four balls of paper to Jin Piaopiao.Little Loli clenched her hands tightly, shook them vigorously, shattered the ball of paper, and then spread her hands.

Jin Miaomiao first took a ball of paper and opened it directly.

"Oh, it's 3! I'm playing the river god!" She curled her lips, a little displeased with her role as the villain in the play.

Le Qinian and Vincenzo picked and picked for a long time, and finally each selected a paper ball.But they hesitated, and neither of them opened it first.

The last ball of paper naturally belonged to Jin Piaopiao.She opened the ball of paper: "I will play the male lead!"

She showed Le Qinian the 1 light on the paper ball.

Le Qinian let out a "tsk".So there are only heroines and gods left?Well, it is not impossible for him to play the fairy like the disco light ball.Anyway, as long as it's not the heroine!

Vincenzo swallowed, and opened his paper ball with a solemn and tragic expression.

With a long sigh, he whispered, "Hallelujah!"

Le Qinian's eyebrows twitched twice.

He unfolded the ball of paper, and the number on it was 2.

Vincenzo patted him on the shoulder with a smile: "Go and change, 'Bride'."

Le Qinian gritted his back molars loudly.How dare this little bastard speak to him in such a tone, he is simply deceiving his master and destroying his ancestors!Francis, it's all your fault!

None of them want to change clothes in front of the creepy director and audience.Fortunately, there are some erected cardboards in the stage set, on which are painted grass, stone monuments and other scenes.The twins hide behind a cardboard stele to change.Le Qinian found a piece of grass cardboard.Vincenzo found a piece of tree cardboard.

Le Qinian originally wanted to put the bride's wedding dress on the outside, but this wedding dress was cut into a very close-fitting cheongsam style, and she couldn't wear it with Taoist robes.Gritting his teeth, he could only take off his Taoist robe and forcefully put on a costume.

"Are you all right?" Jin Piaopiao poked his head out of the cardboard head and looked at them treacherously.

"I'm fine," said Vincenzo.

When he came out, his whole body was covered in golden light, so dazzling that it was hard to look at.The twins held back their laughter and jumped out too.

The costumes were adult sizes, and they were too big for the two of them, and the hem of the clothes dragged on the floor.

But with every step they took, the clothes shortened an inch.By the time they got to the center of the stage, the adult-sized costumes had shrunk down to fit the little ones, fitting them so snugly that it was almost tailor-made.

The three of them cast their eyes on the straw cardboard at the same time.

"Brother Xiaole, are you all right? I'll just wait for you!"

Half of Le Qinian's face poked out from behind the straw cardboard.I don't know if it was because of the reflection in the red clothes, or because of his own shyness, a slight blush appeared on the fair and handsome young man's cheeks.

"None of you is allowed to speak out about what happened today." Le Qinian said in a threatening tone, "Otherwise, I will do something to hinder you!"

The three hurriedly pointed to the sky and swore that they would keep their mouths shut.

Le Qinian bit her lower lip, and walked out from behind the cardboard with small steps.It's not that he walks so awkwardly on purpose, but that he really can't walk.

The bright red bride's wedding dress clings to his body.The designer intentionally made a diamond-shaped opening on the chest, revealing a small touch of skin that has never been exposed to the sun.This cheongsam still has high slits, and every time she takes a step, the hem of the dress flutters, revealing her two thighs.Le Qinian even suspected that his butt was about to be exposed.Therefore, he didn't dare to take too big steps at all, so he could only move in small steps.

Jin Piaopiao puffed up her cheeks and tried her best to hold back her smile, her little face almost turned into a balloon.Vincenzo pinched his thigh violently, using the pain to prevent himself from laughing.

"...I always feel that it is quite suitable for Brother Xiaole." Jin Miaomiao said seriously.

Happy to pray for the year to help the forehead.She might as well laugh at him like her sister!

The masked director raised the loudspeaker: "Actors take their positions! The first act of "Love on the Qinghe" begins!"

Several masked people suddenly poured out from the corner of the stage.Some masks are painted with heavy makeup, others with beards, and some with matchmaker moles, presumably to symbolize the characters in the play.The twins and Vincenzo were dragged to the edge of the stage and hid behind the curtain, leaving only Le Qinian on stage.

Two actors, a man and a woman, stood beside Le Qinian, holding his arms.

The matchmaker walked towards them staggeringly, waving a handkerchief: "Happy news, father of the Gu family!"

"Why do you like it?" said the actor wearing a beard mask.

"Your daughter has been chosen as the bride of the River God! I have checked the almanac, and the fifteenth day of this month is an auspicious day for marriage. On that day, I will send your daughter to marry the Lord River God!"

The actor and actress hugged Le Qinian at the same time and cried loudly.

"This is no good news! My daughter, why is life so hard!"

Le Qinian was hugged tightly by the two of them, almost suffocating. He has only seen one tail of "Love on the Qinghe", and he has no idea of ​​the previous plot, and he doesn't even know how to say the lines.

But the director obviously expected this too.A masked man squatted on the edge of the stage, holding a teleprompter in his hand.

...is quite thoughtful.

Le Qinian looked at the teleprompter, and bluntly read the lines on it. "Father, mother, my daughter won't marry! My daughter already has someone in mind!"

The plot of "Qinghe Youqing" is roughly the same as what Le Qinian understands.The heroine is chosen as the bride of the river god, but she has already fallen in love with a young man from her hometown.The two met to elope, and clashed with the townspeople who came to hunt them down.

Le Qinian pulled the little "male protagonist" Jin Piaopiao, and confronted a group of masked extras.Jin Piaopiao still shouted "I will protect you!", but her height was not even up to Le Qinian's chest...

The heroine who was captured back to the town could only get on the sedan chair with tears in her eyes.Le Qinian was carried to the Qinghe River and boarded a boat.When the boat was in the middle of the river, it suddenly encountered a huge wave, and Le Qinian fell into the river. When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in the Dragon Palace.

Jin Miaomiao, who played the role of the river god, faced the teleprompter and read word by word: "Hohohohahahaha, what a beauty! Dear concubine, come to this king's arms. This king will definitely love you very much. On the wedding night, the spring night is worth a thousand gold..."

As he said that, he was about to tear Le Qinian's clothes. (request on teleprompter)

The gigantic audience below the stage let out teasing and wretched laughter.

Le Qinian couldn't stop rolling his eyes.It's all broken plots, no wonder the reviews are so bad.

At the same time, the male protagonist is sharpening his sword, preparing to enter the Dragon Palace and snatch the female protagonist back.He jumped into the Qinghe River and fought three hundred rounds with the shrimp soldiers and crab generals under the God of the River. In the end, his body was covered in cuts and bruises, and he fell to the ground exhausted.

The heroine rushed to him heartbroken, vowing to make a pair of ghost couples with him.

At this moment, the misty fairy music sounded, and Vincenzo dropped from the sky with the wire hanging, like a flash bomb falling into the world, blinding everyone's dog's eyes.

He enlightened the God of the River with a kindly tone like a virgin, teaching him to love the people like a son and protect the people instead of robbing the people's daughters.The river god knelt in front of Vincenzo and wept bitterly, vowing to change his past.

In the last scene, all the actors held hands and sang in a chorus to celebrate the happy ending.

At this moment, the director suddenly jumped onto the stage and yelled at the actors with a loudspeaker: "No! No! The plot is not like this! Do it all over again!"

Le Qinian looked at him warily. "Director, we all acted according to the prompts on the teleprompter." He said.

"The script was wrong from the beginning!" The director was furious.

He pointed to Vincenzo: "You are not a god! There are no gods in the legend of the river god in Qinghe Town! You should be a Taoist priest from afar!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Vincenzo's sequined gold suit changed into a dark blue priest's robe.

The director pointed to Jin Miaomiao again: "The river god was not enlightened at all, but suppressed by Taoist priests!"

The dragon robe on Jin Miaomiao's body instantly turned into a gray prison uniform, and iron shackles were placed on both hands.

She screamed in horror: "How could this happen! Sister, help me!"

The director pointed at Jin Piaopiao: "There is no male protagonist at all! This role can be deleted!"

The Chinese tunic suit on Jin Piaopiao disappeared and changed back to her original black and blue national costume.A group of actors rushed up and grabbed her arms, as if they wanted to drag her off the stage!

"Let go, let me go! Don't touch me! Brother Xiao Le, help!" Jin Piaopiao kicked his two calves vigorously, and looked at Le Qinian for help.

The director finally pointed to Le Qinian: "The bride was not rescued at all! She died! All the brides died! No one survived, hahahaha!"

Le Qinian only felt a chill on the back of his neck.He lowered his body subconsciously, and a sharp machete passed over his head, cutting off a few strands of his hair.If he hadn't dodged in time just now, it would be his neck that was cut off now.

An actor playing the role of shrimp soldier and crab general held a machete (the one used by the actor to chop shrimp soldiers and crab generals), and rushed towards Le Qi Nian at a high speed.

Earth-shattering applause broke out from the audience.

The giant-like audience stood up at the same time, clapping their hands vigorously, cheers and whistles came and went, and the wave-like applause almost toppled the ceiling of the theater.

"This is the original "Qinghe Youqing"! To see such a wonderful stage play in my lifetime, I will die without regret!"

"The actor did a great job! It's just not realistic enough. Since the bride is dead, the actor should die too!"

"No, it's a pity that such a beautiful bride died, let me love her instead of the God of the River!"

The tall audience approached the stage.Compared with them, the people on the stage are like toys.The space above the stage was filled with masks, each mask was smiling, and each pair of eyes was as black as a black hole.They press toward the stage, the huge masks almost touching the actors' bodies.

"Vincenzo! Go save Piao Piao!" Le Qinian shouted.

The actors playing the bride's parents grabbed Le Qinian's arms from left to right.

"My dear daughter, it has been your honor to serve important people for eight lifetimes! Serve them to your heart's content, and you will naturally have inexhaustible glory and wealth!"

As he spoke, he pushed Le Qinian towards the edge of the stage.

A mask taller than Le Qinian moved in front of him.Behind the smiling mouth opening of the mask are two full lips.

"Come on, little beauty!" The plump lips twisted into an excited smile, and then widened suddenly, revealing the gleaming teeth and a python-like tongue.

Le Qinian shook off the hands of the two actors.But more actors rushed towards him like a wave of zombies.The figure of the young man was swallowed up by the crowd in an instant.But the actors did not give up, but rushed up one by one, using their bodies to form a hill like arhats, as if they wanted to crush Le Qinian to death.

On the other side, Vincenzo rushed towards Jin Piaopiao.Little Lolita was almost dragged to the edge of the stage by the actors.He touched under the Taoist robe and took out a silver bottle.The bottle was filled with consecrated water that he had brought with him for the show.Regardless of whether this foreign holy water is effective against the demons of Huaguo, he poured the holy water on those actors.

As soon as the holy water touched the actor's arm, it immediately hissed and smoked, as if cold water had been poured on hot steel.The actor's clothes were immediately burned through, and a bloody hole was burned in the skin.

Amidst their screams, Vincenzo grabbed Jin Piaopiao, pinched her under his arm like a bag of potatoes, and retreated to the center of the stage.

Whenever actors rushed up, Vincenzo poured holy water on them.However, the holy water is limited, and the silver bottle will soon bottom out.

More than a dozen actors surrounded them and approached slowly.The encirclement gradually narrowed, and Vincenzo's back hit the background board, and it was impossible to retreat.

He turned to the direction of Le Qinian.From the gap between the swaying actors' heads, he saw in horror that the figure of the young man was submerged by the crowd.

...I don't want to explain it here, do I?The blond exorcist thought in despair.

"Le Qi Nian!" he yelled, "Think of a way! Taoist Xu Xing!"

The moment he uttered the last word, a dazzling light suddenly burst out from the crowd that buried Le Qinian.

A loud explosion then resounded throughout the stage.

The actors were thrown out by the blast from the explosion. Some fell to the bottom of the stage, some rolled to the center of the stage, and some hit the background board heavily and fell to the floor.

Le Qinian half-kneeled on the ground, propped the floor with one hand, and held a talisman in the other, the golden light in his peach blossom eyes was as bright as the sun, moon and stars in his eyes.

"It's such a strong Yin Qi, it's really a theater of the underworld." He said coldly.

From the very beginning, he could see that every actor exuded a sinister aura.But the ghost energy is too weak compared to ordinary undead.Generally, the yin qi in the undead body is weakened to such an extent, it should not be far from the soul flying away, but these actors are still alive and kicking, and they can even attack strangers like them.

Therefore, Le Qinian made a bold guess: All the actors here are actually the same person—or the clone of the same ghost.

Each avatar only received a thin ray of ghost energy, but this was enough for the mastermind behind the scenes to control them.

Then all you need to do next is to find the mastermind behind the scenes, that is, the ghost's body, and you can easily destroy these clones.

Le Qinian got up, brushed the dust off the red wedding dress, and pointed the yellow talisman in his hand to the only person on the stage who was not an actor.

"Director, you are the mastermind behind the scenes, right?"

The masked director took a step back, making a gesture of escape.Coke Qi Nian was faster than him, and rushed towards him in one stride.

In the blink of an eye, he was bullied.

Le Qinian grabbed the director's mask, lifted it off, and at the same time stuck the talisman on the director's forehead.

The actors, like a flurry of zombies, stopped their movements in an instant, and at the same time solidified into statues.

Only the director was still panting.

He was already dead, and he didn't need to breathe anymore. The reason why he did this was entirely out of his habit during his lifetime.

It sounded like a drowning person struggling to breathe.

With Jin Piao Piao in his arms, Vincenzo carefully walked out from among the frozen actors, and pulled Jin Miaomiao who was wearing shackles.The three looked at Le Qinian and the motionless director together.

Le Qinian carefully twisted up the talisman paper and uncovered a little bit, revealing the director's true face without removing the talisman paper.

To his surprise, the director under the talisman turned out to be a woman!

He also has a beautiful and pretty face, and anyone who sees him can't help but take a second look.

"...It's you!" Le Qinian widened his eyes and recognized the woman.

He had seen this person before—it was on the poster at the entrance of Qinghe Town Cultural Theater.

She is the leading actress in "Qinghe Youqing".

But she did not appear in today's "Qinghe Youqing".Vincenzo told Le Qinian that stage actors are usually divided into Group A and B, and the performer on that day may be Group B, while the leading actress on the poster belongs to Group A, so they have no chance to meet.

The truth may be more straightforward...and darker than Vincenzo imagined.

The reason why the female lead did not appear on stage was because she had died long ago.

How could a dead man be on stage?

Unless it is in this theater of the underworld.

"You are the real culprit behind the drowning incident?" Le Qinian couldn't believe it, "Why did you murder those women?"

The leading actress raised her brows upside down, and said angrily, "I didn't murder them! I was saving them!"
