After Xia Yuyang told Director Fu that Shanhai Town was fine, Director Fu was still worried. He personally went to the second floor to take a look and confirmed that the treasure was still intact. Only then did Director Fu heave a sigh of relief.
He looked at the scorching sun outside and knew that today's filming task was indeed too heavy. After hesitating for a moment, he called the logistics department to go out and buy some drinks for everyone. Chen Sisi and the others saw that they finally had time to rest, and they all relaxed their tense nerves.
Xia Yuyang took out a small fan and blew at his face and hair. In the hot summer weather, he sincerely missed the free air conditioning in the underworld. He even began to seriously consider a question: I'm secretly opening a door to the underworld next to myself and letting out some cold air to enjoy it. It shouldn't be too much, right?
Unfortunately, Jiang Xuekai had a lot of scenes, and he followed her everywhere. Now that Shanhai Town was here, it was not easy for Fang Xiao to come in. Otherwise, if she floated beside him, wouldn't she be a natural mobile air conditioner? Xia Yuyang sighed regretfully.
While the production team was busy, Xie Bian was not idle either.
The flying zombie's whereabouts in J-City these few days were unpredictable, but it had caused many injuries in succession. The longer it dragged on, the more the flying zombie's strength recovered, and the more unfavorable the situation was for the human world and the underworld.
Fang Xiao's injury from the statue was almost healed. Before the Inferno's plan was officially implemented, she and Xie Bian requested to go home.
"Although I know that the underworld will do its best to protect me, accidents can happen as they wish. Sometimes, even a foolproof plan will have loopholes on the spot. So, I want to go home and see my family. I want to tell them that I want the Special Investigations Department to re-investigate what happened back then. This way, even if something happens to me this time, someone will help me expose the matter to the world. I don't want to continue to make my loved ones feel pain and my enemies feel happy.”When Fang Xiao was recuperating in the netherworld, she had secretly made up her mind.
"Yes, but the resentment in your body has not been removed. If you interact with mortals for a long time, it will not damage their luck but it will hurt their bodies. I can take you to see your family, but I can only give you 25 minutes.”
Xie Bian understood Fang Xiao's feelings. After all, humans and ghosts had different paths, so he had to remind them.
"I understand. Thank you." Fang Xiao thanked Xie Bian sincerely. Perhaps it was because she was much more open-minded now, but the ghostly aura that was originally so thick that black water was about to drip out of Fang Xiao's body had slowly subsided as her resentment was controlled. Now, other than her pale face and her feet that could not touch the ground, she looked no different from when she was alive. Her beautiful and otherworldly face was just like her former high-spirited self.
"Let's go then." Xie Bian didn't say anything more. He brought Fang Xiao to the gates of hell. With a wave of his robe, a pitch-black hole that could only fit one person appeared before them. He stepped in first, gesturing for Fang Xiao to follow him.
After a moment of dizziness, Fang Xiao opened her eyes again. What she saw was the home she had lived in for more than 20 years. She was so familiar with it that it was engraved into her bones. Her mother, who was always charming and graceful, was now so haggard that she almost could not recognize her. Just like all parents who lost their only child in middle age, Mother Fang held the photo of her daughter and caressed the small figure on it. Tears fell like rain.
"Go ahead." Xie Bian nodded at Fang Xiao." Remember the time. There's no point in staying any longer. Remember to explain everything clearly. If your family doesn't agree to reopen the case, the Special Investigations Department can't interfere forcefully. I'll come and pick you up later."”
After a few simple words, Xie Bian slowly disappeared.
Fang Xiao quietly looked at her mother from the side for a while. She restrained herself again and again, but in the end, she still wanted to say something and shed tears first. As she called out the word "Mom" in a long time, her voice was already full of sobs.
Mother Fang was wiping her tears as she looked at her daughter's photo when she suddenly heard her Xiaoxiao calling her. She was stunned for a moment and shook her head self-deprecatingly. This illusion had happened countless times in the past year. She had long been in despair.
"Mom, it's me. I'm back to see you!”Fang Xiao saw Fang Yuan's mother shaking her head as if she was denying her. She immediately understood that she must have been disappointed countless times before, so she could not help but cry out in grief.
This time, Mother Fang was really stunned. She stood up abruptly, and the photo frame in her hand fell on the carpet, but she did not think of picking it up." Xiao Xiao, is that you? You're back to see Mommy?"
" It's me, I'm back…" Fang Xiao choked on her sobs and could not speak. She let go of her hesitation and walked out from behind the potted plant.
"Xiao Xiao! It really is you!" Mother Fang trembled as she looked at her daughter, who had been declared to have committed suicide by the police more than a year ago. She was extremely surprised and did not dare to make any more movements, afraid that her daughter would shatter with a single touch, just like how she had done for many days and nights in the past year.
"Honey, what's wrong?”Father Fang heard Mother Fang's cries from upstairs. Afraid that something had happened to her, he quickly came down to check. In the end, he saw Fang Xiao at first glance.
He immediately ran downstairs, and the family of three hugged each other and cried.
After she was done crying, Fang Xiao calmed down and told her parents how she died, what had happened in the year after her death, and the fact that the Special Investigations Department wanted to reopen the investigation.
Mother Fang broke down after hearing this." Jiang Xuekai, you bastard! Our Fang family has treated him well. How could he do such a heartless thing!”
Father Fang was also furious." At that time, I already said that this young man was evil. When he came to our house occasionally, his eyes were filled with greed. I thought that he was only yearning for wealth because he was born in an ordinary family. I didn't expect that this person was evil to the bone!”
The two elders were very angry. When they heard that Fang Xiao had received help from the underworld and that the Special Investigations Department had to assist in the investigation of the old case, they immediately promised to cooperate.
" But, my poor Xiaoxiao, she's so young and already…" Mother Fang could not bear to continue speaking. She covered her face and cried.
Fang Xiao couldn't help but tear up. She didn't dare to say her next cooperation plan with Inferno. She only said,"The netherworld knows about my situation and treats me well. After this matter is completed, I can reincarnate properly. Dad, Mom, you have to be good.”
With that, Fang Xiao knelt down and kowtowed to Father and Mother Fang before turning to leave.
"Xiao Xiao, are you leaving already? Your grandparents miss you too. Aren't you going to see them before you leave?”Mother Fang urged him to stay.
"Mom, humans and ghosts are different. It's not good for your health to be in contact with me for too long, let alone Grandpa and Grandma. I'll leave first. When the truth is revealed, Lord Xie will send me to reincarnate. Promise me that you will take good care of yourself.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Xie Bian appeared next to Fang Xiao. He cupped his hands at the Fang family's parents." The deceased is already dead. Fang Xiao's life is noble. When the time comes, the new students will also join a good family. My condolences!"”
He was used to the work of collecting souls in the netherworld. This was the first time he comforted a living person, so he was a little unfamiliar with the job.
When Father and Mother Fang saw Xie Bian, they were shocked. They thanked him profusely and asked him to take good care of their daughter.
Xie Bian nodded and left with Fang Xiao, rushing to the Special Investigation Department.
……
Fang Xiao had finished convincing the Fang family, but Xia Yuyang was not done yet. He was so busy today that he did not even have time to send a message to Xie Bian to ask about the progress.
The sky was getting dark. The other production teams in the film studio had all finished work and returned home. Only they were left with the lights on, ready to rush to a few night scenes.
The surroundings were quiet. Xia Yuyang held the script in his hand. For some reason, he felt a little uneasy. Since the afternoon, his right eyelid had been twitching, making him feel frustrated. He kept feeling that something was about to happen.
"Xiao Xia, it's your turn to go down. Get ready!”Director Fu shouted at him.
"Coming!" He took a few deep breaths and let go of his distracting thoughts. He comforted himself that it was just a psychological effect. He looked up and asked the makeup artist to touch up the makeup that had been melted by sweat. He forced himself to concentrate on reading the script silently.
There were a lot of fighting scenes in " Brothers ", and the requirements for the actors 'flexibility and physical fitness were extremely high. After a day of filming, everyone was more or less tired, and they were a little powerless when it came to performing the movements.
When it was Xia Yuyang's turn, he did a somersault and rolled on the ground. He rolled a few rounds on the ground and just as he steadied himself with his back against a nearby tree, he heard his assistant Ren Xiaoyu scream," Brother Yang! There seems to be something flying behind you!”
Xia Yuyang suddenly turned around, but he only saw a gloomy forest. He didn't see anything.
"Yes, yes, yes, I saw it too!" Another staff member echoed.
Actually, Xia Yuyang also felt it. There was the sound of something scraping the leaves behind him, but he thought it was an illusion caused by his fatigue.
He turned to look at Director Fu. Seeing that the other party's face was ashen and pale, he knew that the other party had probably seen it too.
Xia Yuyang stood up and was about to discuss with the director to call it a day when a roar came from the dark forest.
That roar was like a human but not a human, like a tiger but not a tiger. It made one's bones turn cold. Xia Yuyang's expression changed drastically, and he quickly called everyone to gather together.
