- Chapter 84 - An Actor Who Doesn't Want to Be a Director Isn't a Good Actor
With the director’s permission, Qing Li’s smile was cruel, her calm eyes holding a cold, bloodthirsty chill. She brutally tore off the ghost actor’s tongue, blood spurting out, the wriggling crimson tongue in her hand like a fat, giant slug.
“Your screaming is too loud, it will scare away the other ghosts!”
Her voice was soft, but the splashes of bright red blood on her tender face were striking.
Qing Li threw away the tongue, then stood up with the huge axe, its length, including the handle, was about two meters, towering over her.
The ghost actor was scared; he felt that if he didn’t resist, he might actually be killed.
At this moment, to hell with the shooting agreement.
“Ah—”
To death!
The ghost actor’s hands swelled to several times their original size, and his originally rotting arms were now covered with a layer of black scales. He suddenly launched an attack on Qing Li.
If it were an ordinary human, they would definitely be pierced through by his hands.
However, Qing Li directly confronted him, swinging her giant axe through the air in a perfect arc. His feeble arms couldn’t withstand a single blow and were chopped off.
The ghost actor stood in disbelief. In the next moment, his head suddenly flew off. He watched his field of vision change, his body getting farther away, and blood gushing from his severed neck like a pillar…
“Cut——”
The voice of the excited little ghost came through.
This shot was perfect!
“Qing Li, you did very well!” the little ghost praised, giving a thumbs up.
Qing Li smiled slightly. She didn’t speak but slowly walked towards the crew, dragging her giant axe.
The axe blade scraping against the gravel road made a harsh sound, leaving a striking trail.
The assistant director was the first to sense something was wrong.
The shooting had ended, so why hadn’t the ghost actor gotten up?
After all, ghosts are different from humans; they can reattach severed body parts and regrow lost limbs.
“Director, something’s not right…”
Before the assistant director could finish, his head was chopped off by the suddenly swinging giant axe.
Everything happened too fast, and the entire crew was stunned.
“Qing Li, you…”
The little ghost’s eyes widened, looking at Qing Li, who was smiling but covered in blood, trembling slightly.
He wanted to tell Qing Li to stop but found he didn’t even have the courage to speak.
“Director, the real hunt starts now.”
Qing Li licked the tip of her small tiger tooth, and her clear, clean eyes now glinted with a cold ruthlessness.
“You’re crazy, a real madwoman.”
The little ghost gnashed his teeth in anger and loathing as he looked at Qing Li.
Other ghosts launched attacks on Qing Li, but in their eyes, no matter how crazy Qing Li was, she was just a human.
However, their attacks were ineffectual against her.
Qing Li formed a hand seal with her right hand, and the ghosts attacking her twisted into a mass.
With a “bang,” their bodies exploded into a blood mist, disappearing from the world.
This scene intimidated all the other ghosts in the crew.
They finally realized that this human was no ordinary person!
“Don’t be afraid, everyone. How about we play a game? If any of you win, I’ll spare your life,” Qing Li said with a smile.
“What game?” asked the bandaged ghost in a hoarse voice.
Qing Li glanced at the countdown timer on her electronic watch. There were still 46 hours left for her mission.
“We’ll play hide and seek. You can hide anywhere in the village. If I can’t find you in 46 hours, you win the game and can leave safely.”
After Qing Li finished speaking, the ghosts in the crew began to flee towards the village.
The audience in the live stream was also baffled by Qing Li’s actions.
[What’s wrong with the little village girl? Why did she suddenly attack the ghosts of the crew?]
[This task is to shoot a movie, but if the little village girl kills the crew, how can the movie be shot?]
[I think the little village girl must have her own thoughts, she wouldn’t attack the crew for no reason.]
“System, you got all of that footage just now, right?”
Qing Li wiped the blood from her hands, her smile meaningful.
System: “Don’t worry, 360 degrees all around, both close-up and long shots.”
“Well done, System Brother!” Qing Li praised it for once.
The system made a gruff noise, not used to not being scolded as a good-for-nothing.
In the distance, the ghosts of the crew had disappeared.
Qing Li stood up, ready to begin her real purpose…
This task was to shoot a horror film, but if they filmed according to the short ghost’s modified script, the end result would still be a bad movie.
Only by using the most realistic scenes, the most authentic shots, and the most genuine fear, can the audience feel the oppression and despair in the drama.
So…
She decided to direct the movie herself.
And all the ghosts of the crew would become her actors.
However, Qing Li wasn’t going to actually kill innocents. The ghosts she dealt with earlier were not dead but temporarily hidden in a space by her illusion.
“Alright, the hunt begins.”
Qing Li picked up a giant axe, looking at the village shrouded in eerie yin energy, a curve forming at the corner of her mouth.
She had another purpose for playing hide and seek in the village.
It was an opportunity to openly search the village.
There must be something big hidden here!
As the day neared dusk, on the narrow stone path, Qing Li’s shadow stretched long as she cheerfully walked into the village. Under the sunset glow, the dilapidated village was coated in a light golden hue, quietly welcoming the nightfall…
“Creak—”
A broken wooden door opened, and a man emerged, his face yellow and skinny like a corpse. He hung his head, his arms limply at his sides, standing motionless at the door like a soulless body.
“Creak—”
Another wooden door opened, this time a slightly plump woman came out. Her face was numb and expressionless, her eyes hollow and unfocused. She too stood motionless at the door.
Gradually…
Doors opened one by one in the village, each household’s front door had a villager standing by it.
As the sky darkened, these people finally moved.
They hung two white paper lanterns under the eaves, each with a large “Sacrifice” character written on it in brush. The wick lit, and a strange atmosphere began to spread…
Qing Li hid in the shadows, quietly observing.
Indeed, every villager had the face of a dead person!
And around them, countless strands of black qi were entwined, these black strands representing karmic obstacles.
One strand of black qi was one human life.
This indicated that these people were collectively burdened with countless lives.
