A Crowd Of Evil Spirit Lines Up To Confess To Me Chapter 27

After that event, Gu Wuji was already unable to remember it, after opening the eyes, and seeing the pure white ceiling before him, had he only realized that he had already returned to reality.

In the final moment of the copy, because the surrounding ghosts needing purification were really too much, coupled with the injury on the back, the entire strength of Gu Wuji was quickly drained, so he lost his consciousness.

Fortunately, the injuries in the copy will be immediately restored after returning to reality, the physical strength will not be affected in reality too, otherwise Gu Wuji would need to stay in bed for at least 25 days.

“After I pa.s.sed out, everything should have gone very smoothly right? Nothing should happen to them.” Gu Wuji quietly muttered, then remembered the time before, when Auston suddenly showed up to help him.

Gu Wuji had also previously understood that summoning the evil G.o.d was not such a simple matter, and a price must certainly be paid, otherwise, could the evil G.o.d be called upon to do good deeds?

He just didn't expect, that the evil G.o.d's enchanting capabilities actually had this level of power…… Compared with this power, that illusion ability of the middle-aged male ghost encountered in the cruise s.h.i.+p's corridor was simply not worth mentioning.

This power was still just a part of the other party's consciousness, if the complete being of the evil G.o.d was encountered, how terribly frightening would that copy be…… Could anyone actually leave alive?

“Hopefully, Auston would also be able to obtain freedom just like the other departed spirits.” Even though Gu Wuji said this, but he also knows, that things wouldn't be that simple, and couldn't help but heave a sigh.

Gu Wuji at first had also treated Auston as nothing more than just a pa.s.serby, but because of his duty, he protected the other party, and even did a lot of things that other people seemed to see as true love.

But he didn't expect, Auston would actually be willing to bravely step forward at the last moment. Gu Wuji had really been shocked at that moment, and for the first time, really remembered the other party in his heart.

[To congratulate the player for successfully pa.s.sing the third copy, the guaranteed minimum points of 100 is received. Because of the player obtaining a ghost's goodwill, 100 reward points. The player coming in contact with a part of the high-leveled boss' consciousness and obtaining the other party's goodwill, 2000 reward points.

Because the player found the copy's mainline task, purified a large amount of departed spirits, and achieved the copy's highest degree of completion, 2000 points will be received.

To congratulate the player for completing the side task: Protecting the employer's safety. Prop obtained: Blood-stained pocket watch, as an ordinary defensive prop, it can temporarily protect the player's safety in the event of a threat.

The player currently has a total of 4200 points. ]

This time might probably be the first time that Gu Wuji had gotten the greatest points from a copy. Of course, these points were also not something a new ordinary player can acquire, generally, it was good enough for a common person to obtain the guaranteed minimum points of 100.

If other people were to hear this system's feed, they would probably be extremely shock to the extent of doubting their life. Some players mixed in the mid level copy can only obtain thousands of points by triggering all kinds of clues with the risk of their lives, where could they be like Gu Wuji who could actually receive an astonis.h.i.+ng 4000 points in this kind of low level copy?

Gu Wuji because of this copy had even obtained the blood-stained rope and blood-stained pocket watch, these two props can be seen to have come out from the exact same place.

Of course, he also encountered a lot of dangers, especially during the last moment when he almost stayed within this copy.

Gu Wuji had been surprised, to this matter of having received the evil G.o.d's favorable impression, which actually garnered the same points as the last purification he did to a lot of departed spirits……just how difficult was it to achieve this matter in the end?

He also learned from the system's words, that the evil G.o.d was actually a boss existing in the high level copy, this kind of existence could actually appear in such a low level copy, even just a part was already very unreasonable.

What Gu Wuji did not know was that, the evil G.o.d was not suppose to appear in this copy, as he had already lost interest in this cruise s.h.i.+p, after all, and had no longer responded to the captain's call in the end. Only the curse of this cruise s.h.i.+p itself will still continue it's cycle.

The players only needed to subdue the captain after finding out the actual truth, then the things would almost be solved, this was just in accordance with the development of the difficulty in a low level copy, without a doubt, in this kind of situation, they would have no way to break the curse, as for the purification of the departed spirits, this should have been completely impossible.

As for the series of action that Gu Wuji did after boarding the s.h.i.+p……in short, those were the things that the system had never thought about.

[Because the host showed a remarkable performance in the copy, the level of the purification skill has been raised to lv5.

The host can now forcibly purify some low leveled ghosts with resentments that are still unresolved, if some considerable price is paid, even the slightly high leveled ghosts can be directly purified, and can even perceive the root cause of the evil spirit's grievances when the other party is encountered.]

Gu Wuji nodded, feeling that the purification skill became much better after upgrade, especially the aspect in perceiving the evil spirits, which was totally worth the value, it was really a profitable buy with only 1000 points.

However, it is impossible for an common person to reach Gu Wuji's level of achievement, like Zheng-ge and the other people in the last copy, who were still shocked by some moves that Gu Wuji had actually done in the end, to actually be able to pull of this kind of powerful methods……made them internally rejoice for not running away directly, otherwise they would have really been done for.

The problem was more or less solved, Gu Wuji sat up from the bed, picking up the cellphone at the side to take a look, upon noticing that two to three hours had pa.s.sed, suddenly became somewhat dazed.  

Several thrilling days had obviously gone by in the copy's world, but was just like having a dream in reality.

When Gu Wuji got up, a slip of paper fell down from his clothes, he picked it up with some suspicion, then discovered the contact information of Jiang Ling on top, written in a very hasty manner, it was probably shoved in when the copy was almost completely over.

Those players whose contact information were not acquired, their figures in Gu Wuji's mind at this time were already extremely hazy, and will only be completely remembered when entering a copy again, this was what Peng Haocang said, this system's limited conscience will still hide all of the player's ident.i.ty.

As for Peng Haocang and Jiang Ling who had given him their contact information, Gu Wuji was able to immediately recall the memories a.s.sociated with them.

“Wait until there's some free time later to get in touch.” Gu Wuji still had a very good impression on Jiang Ling, and doesn't mind keeping contact with this person in the future, the contact information was then stashed away.

As for Zheng-ge and the others, their existence in Gu Wuji's mind were just like that of the pa.s.sersby, there was no feeling of hate or like, in the end, they were completely placed at the back of the mind.  

Cheng Jia who was at his side had unintentionally fallen asleep while leaning forward on the table, he had, after all, stayed up all night the previous night, and was already unable to support it even if he was still scared, at first, he only thought of taking a short nap while Gu Wuji was resting, but in the end, had fallen into a deep sleep.

Gu Wuji seeing this, had no plans in disturb him too, so he got up and headed to the cubicle in the bathroom, planning to take a bath to relieve his fatigue, when the hands were raised, his gaze suddenly came to a standstill.

On his arm, that blood red veined pattern had unexpectedly continued to exist. It's just that it wasn't as brightly-colored as it had been in the last part of the copy, and the color was so bleak, that it can be overlooked with a little bit of inattentiveness.

“This is……” the evil G.o.d's mark.

How could it still be on his body? Clearly, he had already exited from the copy.

Gu Wuji immediately asked the system, but the system didn't reply.

……is this a very difficult thing to answer?

Gu Wuji looked at his arm for a while, at any rate, there's were also no place that feels uncomfortable, there was also no feeling of being intensely gazed at by someone like on the cruise s.h.i.+p, so he temporarily ignored it. Gu Wuji had never thought about the things that can't be solved and can make him worry .

However, when Gu Wuji considered the system's previous distribution of the copies, the copy mentioned in connection with the previous copy, made him somewhat aware, that perhaps his fate with this evil G.o.d was still not over.  

“I really don't want to have this kind of fate, ah.”

But the other party is an existence in a high level copy, and shouldn't be frequently encountered, right?

Gu Wuji immediately threw this matter at the back of his mind, he conveniently looked at what suitable props were available at the mall when preparing to take a bath, to be used to get by the upcoming wrap party.

…………

……

By the time Chen Jia woke up, it was already in the evening.

He didn't care much, immediately searching for the whereabouts of Gu-das.h.i.+, turning his head to see that Gu Wuji had already changed clothes, sitting on the sofa at the side, holding a cellphone with a pair of slender and beautiful hands, the eyes were looking at the screen, with a solemn and serious expression, just like the matter being worked on was something very important.

Cheng Jia suddenly had a thought, could it be that something very terrible had happened during his sleep?

He quickly got up, rus.h.i.+ng to Gu Wuji's side, then saw……

Gu Wuji playing the Jewel of Atlantis.

*name of a game

d.a.m.n!

This isn't the time to still be playing the Jewel of Atlantis, ah! Isn't it the time to go and see the main culprit who had the greatest probability of causing his current troubles? A life is at stake, this should usually be the time with the most extreme tension, right? But why was Gu Wuji actually--

No, this must be some special method of Gu Wuji, even though it looks just like playing a normal Jewel of Atlantis, but it actually has a hidden mystery…… Perhaps something like a divination method of the new era.

Right! Gu-das.h.i.+ must certainly be calculating whether or not they would actually have an accident today, it just that this kind of method cannot be detected by outsiders.

Cheng Jia who made a lot of chaotic things in his brain, increasingly felt that his guess was not wrong, the eyes that were looking at Gu Wuji became more reverent.

After spending some time in the mall, a bunch of posts from the player's forum were brushed due to boredom, when there was finally nothing else to do, Gu Wuji played the Jewel of Atlantis to pa.s.s time, after hearing the sound of movements he looked to the side to see Cheng Jia's face of wors.h.i.+p……

The Jewel of Atlantis game ended like this acting as if nothing had happened, Gu Wuji felt that it would be comparatively better for him not to ask what Cheng Jia was actually thinking.

Gu Wuji put away the mobile phone and asked: “Did Huang Dao already inform you about the place of the wrap party?”

“I was already informed. Ah, it seems like it's about to begin, We have to go now.” Chen Jia immediately said.

“En, it's best to not be late.” Gu Wuji still had good feelings towards the staff and crew members, as they had also taken care of him when they were filming.

As the largest investor, Cheng Jia, at any rate, was not afraid of being late, as no one would dare to offend him, but since Gu Wuji said so, he suddenly changed his att.i.tude, “That's for certain, there's still time, it's impossible for us to be late!”

If it was in the past, he would not even bother going to this kind of wrap party……it was just a lousy online movie, how could it be worthy for Cheng Jia to personally attend? But since Gu-das.h.i.+ is playing the role of the second male lead in the movie, how could he not go!

Of course, in the end, there is an additional matter of finding out who would want to secretly harm him. This matter was unconsciously placed at the back by Cheng Jia for the benefit of flattering Gu-das.h.i.+.

Most importantly, Gu Wuji seemed to appear so calm and collected, making Cheng Jia produce a strong sense of confidence, to be extremely confident that this wrap party will not have any problems.

Gu Wuji nodded, the two people headed outside, then two tall and strong bodyguards came over, with a very respectful manner, the eyes didn't have the slightest surprise upon seeing Gu Wuji too, it was clear that Cheng Jia had already informed them.

In fact, these two bodyguards used to live in the rooms around this hospital room before, but during the time Cheng Jia was haunted, even a huge number of a.s.signed bodyguards were completely useless.

…………

……

The venue of the wrap party was in the outskirts, the place was very hidden, the ambiance was also interesting and appealing, the mansion gave off a very ancient vibe, it had been reportedly said that this was the residence of a great family in the past, and was exactly the most popular place for people of the upper cla.s.s to visit.

Without a doubt, having a meal here was also very expensive, if it wasn't because of the total investment of xiao Cheng, their poor crew might not have had that much money to eat in this kind of place.

At this moment, the director and staffs of this online movie have already arrived, and were also waiting with the other actors and actresses.

Even though the scheduled time has not yet arrived, but they all rushed over in advance, who would dare arrive late to the dinner party where xiao Cheng zong would be present, ah? Isn't that looking for trouble themselves?

Look at Xu Mingjun, he used to mingle very well with xiao Cheng zong before, but had now gloomily packed up and left, even the very little scenes in the movie were deleted.

They still felt lingering fears when recalling all the black history of Xu Mingjun that had been reported on the internet, unless something miraculous happens, otherwise Xu Mingjun would completely be done for.

As for Gu Wuji, everyone were also very shocked to the things that had happened to him, first and foremost, Gu Wuji had originally been miserable after offending xiao Cheng zong, to the extent of having been almost kicked out of the entertainment circle.

But in a span of a single night, all of the things had suddenly changed, that xiao Cheng zong did not even hesitate to shouldered the amount to increase Gu Wuji's payment, even using his personal connections to make the movie that should have originally been aired on the internet only, be set up and be shown in a proper movie theater, along with all kinds of extravagant publicity.

All of this were even done during the time of xiao Cheng zong's hospitalization, as he commanded other people to do it.

What had actually happened?

Many people were extremely curious towards this matter.

Of course, there were several people before who felt that Gu Wuji was not very pleasing to the eye, and only sneered at this time, thinking that Gu Wuji had certainly sold his charm, just to gain the support of xiao Cheng zong. At any rate, they would just wait for Gu Wuji to come by later, to clearly understand everything.

“Huang Dao, are you alright?” The worried voice of Huang Dong's a.s.sistant sounded at this time.

Only then did everyone realize that Huang Dao's face was a bit pale, cold sweats were even dripping, the state was obviously not very good. But Huang Dao had still been a vigorous and lively person before, how could he suddenly become like this? Could it be a sudden outbreak of some illness?

“Huang Dao, if your really feeling uncomfortable, someone can be arranged to bring you to the hospital.” a staff member immediately spoke up.

“I'm fine.” Huag Dao took a towelette to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead, then showed a very stiff smile, “It may be being a little too nervous, it'd still be better to wait for xiao Cheng zong, ba.”

Other people persuaded quite a few more times, but Huang Dao's idea was very resolute, that they also no longer spoke anymore, as the mind could also comprehend the thoughts of Huang Dao……after all, if he suddenly went to the hospital before the investor came, the underlying idea will not be good no matter how it is thought about.

Just at this time, the sound of footsteps could be heard, everyone immediately turned their head to look.

After seeing the scene before their eyes, they were shocked, appearing before everyone's eyes were Gu Wuji and Cheng Jia. This was a very normal matter, after all, they were now already different from before.

But, the att.i.tude between the two people, had actually been completely out of everyone's expectations!

Some people believed that Gu Wuji would do every means of b.u.t.tering up, all kinds of flattering and such to Cheng Jia……But truth be told, it was actually the other way round!

Many people had seen xiao Cheng zong's manner when he had been crazily pursuing Xu Mingjun before, that was called a tyrannical president, which was I'll buy anything you like, wanting an additional scene will add an extra scene, even wanting to change roles is possible. Although it can be said to be very enviable, but there will inevitably be a feeling of inequality in it.

As for xiao Cheng zong and Gu Wuji before them, that feeling of inequality was certainly there……But who is this person whose every gesture and behaviour as well as the eyes were looking at Gu Wuji while containing an extremely respectful att.i.tude, ah! Was it really that arrogant xiao Cheng zong before? And not something like a lackey of Gu Wuji?

“Gu-das.h.i.+, come, quickly sit.” Cheng Jia without any hindrances made Gu Wuji sit on the most important seat which originally belonged to him, as for the two bodyguards, he had already sent them outside to eat and drink.

The people around were so astonished that even half a word could not be said, what kind of address was this Gu-das.h.i.+? Wasn't Gu Wuji just an ordinary actor! Who, until now had only filmed a single online drama that wasn't even particularly very good, and was in fact, nothing more but an internet celebrity, but he can actually make xiao Cheng zong this respectful.

After Cheng Jia sat down, he was so dedicated to the point that he even went to pour Gu Wuji tea, while the surrounding servers who wanted to be of service were stared down by him.

“What kind of person is Gu-das.h.i.+, without a doubt, the tea must be personally poured by me, people like you are unqualified.”

The faces of the people were already full of confusion, but since everyone were in the entertainment circle they of course wouldn't be like those common people, as each of them in succession showed an enthusiastic smile and greeted Gu Wuji.  

As for those people who previously thought that Gu Wuji had certainly sold his beauty, their complexions at this time had paled, as they constantly rejoiced in their mind for not speaking out loud before……otherwise the conclusion would certainly not be as good as it was now.

When Gu Wuji had finally finished greeting everyone, the sight had directly fallen onto Huang Dao, then noticed that the other person's condition wasn't good at a glance.

Cheng Jia at the side was also holding his breath, and was already extremely nervous at this moment.

Then he saw Gu Wuji lower his head tp take out his cellphone.

Cheng Jia: “??”

Feeling the vibration of an incoming message, Cheng Jia took out his cellphone, and was shocked to see the message that Gu Wuji had sent.

“Eat first.”

Cold sweat continuously trickled down from Cheng Jia's face, even though Gu Wuji just said these 2 words, but he had already been engrossed in eating, and still appeared to be eating with relish.

But this was surely a cover! In fact, the situation must be very critical, Gu-das.h.i.+ was just concealing it with this insipid look, for the purpose of not wanting to arouse the attention of a certain someone here!

It is really terrible, what kind of person is Huang Dao to actually be able to make Gu-das.h.i.+ this afraid?

Cheng Jia had been greatly frightened by his own conjecture, lowering his head and started eating, not daring to look over there, for fear of causing any troubles.

The other people looking at this scene were very bewildered, feeling that xiao Cheng zong was not worthy of being a person coming from an aristocratic family, that even eating a meal have this indefinite gloominess, that made others incapable of speculation……

Gu Wuji in reality, was just really hungry.

When looking at this kind of culinary delicacies on the table, how could he be unmoved! Besides, the thought of handling any ghosts with an empty stomach was also not good, at any rate, the man, Huang Dao was here and incapable of running away, so it's better to have dinner first.  

During the meal, Gu Wuji would raise his head to look at Huang Dao from time to time.

Huang Dao's complexion was getting more and more worse, the whole person seemed to be able to faint at any time, finally unable to endure, he stood up then said that he would be going out. The a.s.sistant beside him did not feel at ease, and immediately said: “Let me also come with you, okay?”

Huang Dao then nodded his head.

Gu Wuji seeing this had also stood up.

“Gu-das.h.i.+, what's wrong?” Cheng Jia was startled, looking at Gu Wuji with fear and trepidation.

“I suddenly wanted to take a walk too, I'll go with Huang Dao.” Gu Wuji said.

“Then I'll go too!”

Cheng Jia immediately said, countless terrible conjecture had once again emerged in his mind, that he almost shook with fear.   

In the past, Cheng Jia was an obstinate person that does not believe in ghosts, but after encountering the ghosts 2 times……Others parts were still not very clear, but at the very least his brain filling capacity had greatly increased.

Huang Dao had some doubts, but also did not refuse, there must be something wrong with his brain if he refused the biggest investor.

In this way, the four people went out to take a walk towards the garden on the side.

The people left behind felt very confused, what is actually going on in this dinner today? This was completely different with their imagination, ah!

……

The course of this walk, was very silent at first.

The garden in this place was quite big, with all kinds of simulated rock fountains, it didn't take long to be away from all the hustle and bustle.

The four people went like this, Cheng Jia's vigilance wasn't good, so he dared not speak a word, that the a.s.sistant also closed kept quiet, as a result, it only became Huang Dao and Gu Wuji who was in the situation of chatting awkwardly, the contents of the awkward conversation was still this movie.

Gu Wuji was casual at the start, but suddenly became extremely serious after talking about this movie, then started all kinds of discussion with Huang Dao.

Even though a lot of things had happened to him……but Gu Wuji still considers himself as an actor, and he is a person who will do everything seriously, even the movie which had already completed will not be exempted.

Huang Dao had originally been just looking for a topic to talk about, not expecting Gu Wuji's enthusiasm to suddenly be ignited, so he could only force himself to continue talking, the heart was deeply moved with Gu Wuji's dedicated att.i.tude, having this kind of strength and this face value, in addition to the very good personal relations.h.i.+p with xiao Cheng zong, the prospects of Gu Wuji's future should not be ordinary.

But at this moment, an ominous gust of wind blew, Huang Dao seemed to have thought of something, as the complexion suddenly turned deathly pale.

The other people felt something amiss, turning their head to look, to discover that the building's lights which were slightly visible in the beginning had already disappeared, the surroundings were filled with some rockeries and permeated by fog, obstructing all of their vision.  

The atmosphere became more colder and gloomier, the exposed skin couldn't help but have gooseb.u.mps. Just at this time, they were even able to hear a vague sound of a woman's weeping, the sound seemed to be coming from all directions, it was very clear even if the ears were covered, making people very terrified.

“Gu-das.h.i.+, what's happening?……” Cheng Jia quickly moved to Gu Wuji's side, then fearfully looked towards Huang Dao, “Had this guy done it?”

But Cheng Jia discovered that Huang Dao was also looking at his eyes with the same kind of panic.

Cheng Jia: “……??”

Thanks to his own brain filling plot, he suddenly felt a little sorry for Huang Dao toiling so long and hard for the **oss behind the scenes.

Gu Wuji spoke: “It seems that, you, Huang Dao is aware of something?”

Huang Dao was already extremely frightened, that the body was constantly trembling, with eyes full of despair, “I originally thought that nothing would happen with other people, I didn't expect it to become like this……it seems that the female ghost is not going to let me go!”

From Huang Dao's words, they finally knew the ins and outs of the matter. As it turns out, Huang Dao in the very late night a few days ago, because of a certain matter ate here, seeing a woman standing on the roadside's wilderness wanting to hitchhike while driving on the way home.

Huang Dao didn't pay much attention to it at that time, feeling some slight strangeness, when he suddenly saw that this woman's face was actually covered with blood from the car's rearview mirror, there's no way this could be a living person no matter which angle it was seen from.

He was so frightened that he quickly drove away without turning back, but this female ghost did not let him go, Huang Dao could see her figure no matter where he went, the female ghost could even be seen in the mirror at night, scaring him out of his wits.

Huang Dao without any better option, later begged for an amulet……this amulet still worked at the beginning, not letting that female ghost appear again, only then was Huang Dao able to attended this wrap party with a peace of mind.

But on the way here, Huang Dao had vaguely seen that female ghost once again, making him become this frightened right now. But he also didn't dare to leave, since going back from this place, no one knows what could happened on the way back, and it will also offend xiao Cheng zong……

Fortunately, after Gu Wuji arrived with the other, the figure of the female ghost faded away, only then did it allow Huang Dao release a breath of relief.

But soon after eating and drinking, his body increasingly felt uncomfortable, looking at the people around, a flickering ghostly figure had actually appeared behind each and everyone's back, and was just like being possessed by a ghost! Letting Huang Dao feel a sense of fear just like having been surrounded by ghosts, this excuse of wanting to take a walk in the garden was just a pretext, he actually wanted to leave that place immediately.

He was also rea.s.sured with Gu Wuji and Cheng Jia, because they still seemed to appear just like ordinary people at present……not expecting that the charm would actually completely lose it's effectiveness here, allowing the female ghost to catch up and approach again.

“It's over this time, we will all die here.” Huang Dao said almost desperately, “That woman will never let me go……but I obviously did not do anything! What reason--”

“Ah, wait, Huag Dao, is she the woman you were talking about?” Gu Wuji's voice suddenly sounded.

Huang Dao couldn't understand the meaning of Gu Wuji's words, and ignorantly turned his head, then shockingly saw Gu Wuji standing beside that female ghost, that terrifying existence which appeared in his nightmares countless of times,

“She's here!!”

Huang Dao was frightened to death, but found that Gu Wuji himself appeared to still have a very calm appearance, so much, that his hand was even placed on the female ghost's shoulder, then just like a very friendly elder brother from the neighborhood began to speak.

“Be a.s.sured, no matter what miserable thing this director had done to you, I will never stand by and watch! I will absolutely not condone with his wicked behavior.”
