Hearing what Gu Zhisang said, Miss Xing said angrily: “What are you talking about? Do you have to curse others to death when you open your mouth? You came here to find fault!”
However, she didn’t notice Yu Tongqiu’s ugly face. After a long silence, Yu Tongqiu raised her head and said in a hoarse voice: “Sister Xing, actually what Miss Gu said is quite right. I feel like I’m going to die at some point. “
“Don’t talk nonsense!”
“It’s true, Sister Xing, you don’t understand that feeling. Even if I walk in the sun these days, I feel my body trembling and my palms sweating! When I close my eyes and sleep at night, I feel chest tightness and breathlessness. I’ve been having nightmares these past two to three days… …”
Yu Tongqiu spoke intermittently. Her lips were bluish and her eyes dimmed. In the end, she covered her face in helplessness.
After she found out that she was not in the right condition, she went to the hospital immediately. She had a physical examination and also went to see a psychologist, but nothing was found. The doctor said that she might be under too much psychological pressure.
Miss Xing’s face was ugly and she said anxiously: “You damn girl, why didn’t you tell me after suffering for so long?!”
She could guess why.
After so many years of working in the industry, she has managed dozens of artists. She was aware of the filth in the industry. She knew that some artists take shortcuts for the sake of popularity, raise little ghosts, and breed new seeds one after another. She forbids the artists under her hand to get in touch with these ghostly things.
Yu Tongqiu was the most hardworking and obedient artist she has brought over these years. She was never forced to hype herself and has reached this far with her solid acting skills. But she only reports good news to the company and her family.
After she fell off the horse, she didn’t tell herself, the director only informed her.
Miss Xing was distressed and anxious. Seeing Yu Tongqiu’s haggard appearance in just a few days, and a series of bizarre situations such as her strangling her neck and being unconscious just now, this was abnormal!
Taking a deep breath, Miss Xing lowered her posture and said to Gu Zhisang: “Miss Gu, I was too impatient just now, and my tone became a bit aggressive. Can you please help Tongqiu to see what’s wrong with her?”
Yu Tongqiu’s reaction shows that she and Gu Zhisang were not familiar with each other at all, so it was impossible to tell each other these secrets.
But this actress suddenly appeared, and Yu Tongqiu woke up after a few moments. Thinking of the frequent hot searches on the Internet these days, Miss Xing realized that Gu Zhisang has skills, not some marketing script!
Gu Zhisang was not affected at all. Since she appeared suddenly, it was a normal reaction for people to be more vigilant.
She looked at Yu Tongqiu and asked, “When we came in, how did you feel?”
“I heard Sister Xing’s voice at that time. I wanted to open my eyes to respond, but my limbs and eyelids were so heavy that I couldn’t move at all…” Yu Tongqiu recalled, with a look of fear on his face: “Then I couldn’t breathe, as if someone was strangling my neck. I also heard a harsh voice telling me to die. I couldn’t tell whether I was dreaming or not!”
Miss Xing said: “A ghost must be pressing you into sleep!”
“It’s not just that simple. There is indeed a ghost in your house, and it is a ghost born of resentment. It has stayed by your side for at least 3 or 5 days. It was lying beside your bed when we entered the door.” Gu Zhi Sang frowned: “Have you ever looked at yourself in the mirror? Your lower eyelids are bluish-black, your lips are bloodless, and your skin is dry. The loss of your yang energy is quite serious and the yin on your body is too much. If you stay with it for 2 more days, your family can only collect your corpse when they come.”
Miss Xing exclaimed: “A ghost? How could Tongqiu mess with such a thing?!”
Gu Zhisang said: “Then I have to ask Sister Tongqiu herself. From my point of view, that fierce ghost is not your ordinary white-clothed ghost. Its soul is full of fire, blood, and resentment. It must have died unjustly and tragically before it died. It should be a newly dead soul. When the newly dead souls died unjustly the first thing it wanted to take revenge after death must be the person it hated the most. It will not change its target as long as it doesn’t succeed.”
After death, the soul will go to the underworld, while the soul that still stays in the world is what the people call ghosts.
There were ranks among ghosts.
The discouraged ghosts were the weakest, and they were the most common type in the underworld. The second was the white-clothed ghosts, who can’t kill people if they don’t have a lot of resentment. At most, they can make people suffer some bad luck.
The ghosts that go further up have a certain threatening power, and are usually transformed by obsession or resentment after an abnormal death;
Among them, the ghosts with dark red souls were the ones with a lot of resentment. Most of these ghosts suffered unimaginable pain before they died and then died with despair and hatred.
Folks often say that people who die in red will turn into ghosts, but this is a fallacy. The so-called ghosts in red refer to the fire and blood of the soul.
The ghost Gu Zhisang saw beside Yu Tongqiu has blood and tears in its reddened eyes full of resentment: “So there is only one explanation for it to haunt you. It thinks that you, Sister Tongqiu, killed her so it came to claim your life.”
Yu Tongqiu was at a loss and kept shaking his head, “No, I’ve been filming in the crew for the past six months, so I don’t have the time to hurt people.”
Miss Xing also said in a firm tone: “I don’t know about others, but Tongqiu can’t do such a thing.”
Gu Zhisang didn’t doubt Yu Tongqiu, as early as when the two met for the first time. She could see that this woman had a gentle face, not the type of person who can be vicious, rather she should have done a lot of good deeds;
If not, it would be impossible for her to agree to Yu Tongqiu’s grandma’s request.
But looking at her again today, her face had changed, and she was full of blood.
Gu Zhisang had some guesses in her mind, so she asked Yu Tongqiu to think carefully about all the abnormal things that happened during this period.
“In the beginning, I just had some strange dreams, and couldn’t sleep very well at night. Later, as time went by, the pictures in the dreams became clearer and clearer, and I could always see a man smiling at me. He kept chasing me in the dream, and his eyes seemed to be saying ‘You can’t escape’!” Yu Tongqiu said with a tired expression: “I was so scared that I kept running and didn’t dare to stop. After getting up during the day, my limbs were weak and my mind was dizzy. I can’t even muster the energy to memorize the lines…”
“A man?” Gu Zhisang raised an eyebrow.
“Yes, although I can’t remember his face, I’m sure it’s a man.”
“Then do you know that the fierce ghost beside you is a female? Although I only glanced at it briefly, it must have been underage when it died, because it seemed to be wearing a school uniform.” Gu Zhisang said lightly.
“A student?!” Miss Xing frowned even more tightly: “That’s even more impossible. Tongqiu’s job has no connection to children who haven’t graduated, but she donates a lot of money every year to build schools in the mountainous areas. How could she kill a student if she only gives money to build a school?”
On the contrary, Yu Tongqiu was stunned for a moment and said with a wry smile: “I don’t understand. But since 3 or 5 days ago, I haven’t dreamed of that man at night… The scene in the dream turned into late night, at the top of the tall building, I can see a girl lying in a pool of blood downstairs on the ground. From a distance, I can only see her expression is so distorted, her eyes are blood red…”
Every time she woke up, she didn’t dare to open her eyes at all. Because she felt something pressing her body heavily, making it difficult for her to breathe.
Such constant torture made Yu Tongqiu extremely haggard. She changed her residence several times but to no avail. She was on the verge of collapse both physically and mentally.
In the end, when filming the horse riding scene yesterday, she saw those blood-red eyes full of resentment in the crowd and was dragged down by a strong force in a trance, which made her fall off the horse.
If the staff didn’t react on time, she would be kicked and trampled by the horse.
Yu Tongqiu’s voice choked up: “I just don’t know whether what I see is true or not.”
