Hong Kong variety show: I Am a Tycoon

Metaphysical knowledge cannot be acquired quickly, so Lin Fengqiao gave Chen Jiajun a book.

With nothing else to do, Chen Jiajun read books the whole way.

And just then, I noticed something strange about Huangshan Village!
"Believe it or not!" Chen Jiajun lit a cigarette and said calmly.

Without saying a word, Ya Fang finished her meal, grabbed the money, and left with her son.

The chubby boy even waved politely to Chen Jiajun.

Just as Ya Fang was about to leave, a young man rushed in and bumped into her.

Enraged, Ya Fang punched the boy before turning and leaving, cursing under her breath.

The impetuous young man didn't seem to mind at all. Instead, he rushed to the man with glasses and said in a panic, "There are so many dead people in the village... so many dead people! It's terrifying!"

Just then, the owner walked over and asked the impetuous young man, "What would you like to drink?"

"Cola!" the young man replied casually.

The shop owner nodded and was about to leave when he was stopped by the young man with glasses: "Excuse me, I'd like to ask if anyone still lives in the village behind here?"

The shop owner shook his head and said, "No one lives here; it's been empty for decades!"

"Why? It's so close to the intersection, and it's convenient!" the bespectacled young man asked with a puzzled look.

But the boss shook his head and said, "I don't know."

But at that moment, the old man sitting to the side, who seemed to be in a daze, suddenly spoke up: "It's strange! Strange! Sixty-six people have died in three days, all because of a child."

"A child?" The young man with glasses looked at the old man with a strange expression.

The old man seemed to be really talking to him: "His name is Xiaoqiang, and he's Chu Renmei's favorite! He's only survived this long thanks to a safety bracelet!"

The old man's words were not only being heard by the two young men at the opposite table.

Chen Jiajun couldn't help but prick up his ears.

But upon hearing the name Chu Renmei, Chen Jiajun was immediately reminded of something, or rather, a childhood trauma.

You should know that people experience many things in their lives, and as time goes by, childhood memories will gradually fade.

For example, Chen Jiajun has forgotten many of his previous movies.

But some things leave a deep impression. For example, the happiest things, the saddest things, the angrier things, and... the most terrifying things.

Just then, the shop owner brought over some cola and said to the two young men, "Don't listen to his nonsense, he's a madman!"

"Why?" the bespectacled young man asked, puzzled. "He's talking to us!"

The shop owner said helplessly, "He keeps bringing up Li Qiang and Chu Renmei, but we've lived here for over ten years and have never heard of either of them!"

After saying that, the boss shook his head and left.

The impetuous young man lowered his voice and said to his friend, "That's not right! I just saw... I saw Chu Renmei's memorial tablet in the village! And..."

The impetuous young man swallowed hard and continued, "And those dead people were kneeling and worshipping Chu Renmei's memorial tablet."

Hearing their conversation, Chen Jiajun had a sudden thought.

So when the two were about to leave, Chen Jiajun got up and chased after them.

"Hey you two, wait a minute!" Chen Jiajun called out to the two of them.

"Sir, is there anything I can help you with?"

The young man with glasses turned his head and looked at Chen Jiajun with some surprise.

He had noticed Chen Jiajun before, sitting with that very fierce woman.

He even used a chopstick to knock the kitchen knife out of the woman's hand.

Chen Jiajun said with a smile, "Well, I overheard you guys investigating that Huangshan Village up ahead?"

"Huangshan Village? So that village is called Huangshan Village!" the bespectacled young man muttered to himself. "How did you know that?"

Chen Jiajun said calmly, "Before answering your question, I would like to ask you both a question! Why did you investigate Huangshan Village?"

The impetuous young man was about to speak, but the bespectacled man waved his hand and said, "To resolve some matters, but it's you who took the initiative to strike up a conversation with us..."

Chen Jiajun smiled and said, "You're wary of me? That's alright, but you're probably being haunted by some kind of unclean thing, aren't you?"

"How did you know?" the impetuous young man asked with a look of surprise.

Chen Jiajun smiled and looked at the two of them, saying, "Don't you know your names yet?"

"Just call me Xiaoming. This is my teacher, Mr. Mao." Xiaoming quickly asked, "Sir, do you know something?"

Chen Jiajun nodded: "You can call me Chen Jiajun. As for the things in Huangshan Village... I do know a little about them."

The two exchanged a glance, then their faces lit up with surprise: "Since you know about this, do you have a solution?"

Chen Jiajun shook his head and said, "Things in Huangshan Village aren't that simple! I need the whole story. If you two don't tell me, you can pretend I was never here!"

With that, Chen Jiajun turned around as if to leave.

Xiao Ming immediately stopped Chen Jiajun and then told him about what had happened to the young people.

The incident started simply: a few reckless young people were playing a psychic game and went too far.

Several people have died in the past few days. They found Huangshan Village by following clues and wanted to resolve the matter.

After listening to their words, Chen Jiajun nodded immediately.

Although some details are blurry, Chen Jiajun still remembers the general plot of the movie "The Haunted Village".

Now that the plot points match up, things will be much easier.

Chen Jiajun put on an air of superiority and said, "Since that's the case, I already know!"

"Mr. Chen, is there any solution?" Xiaoming asked nervously.

After all, several people had already died, and his girlfriend was among them.

If these problems aren't resolved soon, his girlfriend might be next.

Chen Jiajun glanced at the two of them, then said, "You two come with me to Huangshan Village."

"Huh? We have to go again?" Xiaoming was terrified by the ghosts he had seen earlier, and his legs were still trembling.

Chen Jiajun said calmly, "Don't you want to solve the problem?"

“Then let’s go together!” Mr. Mao nodded, pulling Xiaoming along as they followed behind Chen Jiajun.

Chen Jiajun took out the ancient book that Lin Fengqiao had given him and glanced at it. Sure enough, it was just as he had guessed.

Huangshan Village had become a dead land, and its layout was extremely ominous!

Then Chen Jiajun rubbed his chest, and suddenly a pair of dark blue eyes slowly opened on Chen Jiajun's pendant.

As Lin Fengqiao said, Chen Jiajun has no talent whatsoever.

However, he could use other methods to achieve the same "opening of the third eye" as Lin Fengqiao.

That's the equipment you get in the League of Legends world, the Rift Creator.

The world changed the moment I took out this piece of equipment.

A dark gray aura of resentment permeated the air, shrouding the entire Huangshan Village. "Good heavens, the resentment is overwhelming!" Chen Jiajun muttered to himself.

But when it reached Xiaoming and Mr. Mao's ears, they immediately felt that something was different.

They were worried they'd encountered scammers, but now it seems they're quite skilled.

Based on the intensity of the resentment, Chen Jiajun continued walking forward and soon entered the village.

At this moment, he could clearly see that people dressed in ways that did not resemble those of this era were wandering around the village.

These are probably the dirty things Xiaoming saw before.

However, Chen Jiajun found it strange that these things could also be considered "ghosts".

But the resentment they harbored actually came from Chu Renmei!
They were like puppets manipulated by Chu Renmei.

Once inside Huangshan Village, Xiaoming and Mr. Mao were able to see all the filth.

The two men trembled with fear: "Mr. Chen... these are the things!"

"I know!" Chen Jiajun said irritably, "You're already scared like this before you've even seen the real person. What will you do when you see Chu Renmei later?"

After Chen Jiajun made a comment, the two of them weren't so scared anymore.

But the two of them couldn't help but mutter to themselves, "Not everyone is like you!"

Sensing the presence of living people, the manipulated ghosts slowly gathered around.

Most people would be scared half to death by this sight.

But who is Chen Jiajun? He has seen more than one so-called "god," so mere ghosts can no longer scare him.

Seeing these pale-faced fellows, who seem destined for death.

Chen Jiajun felt no emotion whatsoever; to be honest, these people truly deserved to die.

These people were accomplices when Chu Renmei was framed for adultery.

So Chen Jiajun snorted coldly, and the magical flames of the [Sunfire Armor] surged, directly enveloping his entire body.

Chen Jiajun then charged directly into the group of ghosts and began throwing punches.

The fist enveloped in magical flames could damage spirits, something Chen Jiajun had already tested when he encountered Chen Shao.

So anyone who came into contact with Chen Jiajun's ghostly possessions would scream in agony and be burned into a wisp of black smoke.

Mr. Mao and Xiao Ming were stunned to see Chen Jiajun, engulfed in flames, charge into the horde of ghosts and wreak havoc.

They had initially thought that Chen Jiajun knew something about Huangshan Village, so they decided to try anything, even if it seemed hopeless.

It seems they've managed to latch onto a powerful backer!
Especially Mr. Mao, who was originally very interested in these metaphysical things.

Seeing that such people actually exist in this world, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

In no time at all, Chen Jiajun had wiped out all the ghosts in Huangshan Village.

Although it was done with magical items, Chen Jiajun was quite satisfied.

At least in this bizarre world, we now have some means of self-protection.

Otherwise, ordinary people like Mr. Mao and Xiaoming would only be played around by ghosts.

Seeing that Chen Jiajun's flames had dissipated, Xiao Ming dared to approach: "Mr. Chen, I didn't know you had such skills! Now I can rest assured!"

Chen Jiajun poured cold water on the two of them, saying calmly, "Don't be too happy yet. These are just ordinary ghosts that Chu Renmei killed. Anyone with a little ability can deal with them. The real troublesome one is Chu Renmei herself!"

Mr. Mao asked curiously, "Mr. Chen, you seem to know something?"

"Let's talk as we walk!" Chen Jiajun waved his hand, signaling the two to follow.

After dealing with the ghosts lurking in Huangshan Village, the surrounding environment no longer seemed so eerie.

Chen Jiajun reviewed the plot and then gave the two a rough outline: "About several decades ago, there was a teacher in Huangshan Village named Bu Wantian. He married a beautiful woman, who was also a famous Cantonese opera singer named Chu Renmei. People said that the two were a perfect match, a talented man and a beautiful woman."

"Although Bu Wantian is a schoolteacher, he is not a very upright person. He has caught the eye of a young lady from a wealthy family. In order to prevent people from finding out that he is already married, he set up a scheme."

“Let a hooligan from the next village molest Chu Renmei, and then report them to the village chief for adultery. More than a hundred years ago, the village chief was in charge of all matters, big and small. In Chu Renmei’s case, she would have been drowned in a pig cage or overturned in a pond.”

"At this time, Bu Wantian jumped out and said that Chu Renmei should be punished together, but Chu Renmei was willing to die so as not to delay Bu Wantian's future."

Both of them were shocked when they heard Chen Jiajun recount what happened many years ago.

They never imagined that the terrifying Chu woman had such a tragic past.

“But… logically speaking, Chu Renmei shouldn’t know about this, so why…” Mr. Mao said, somewhat puzzled.

Chen Jiajun smiled slightly: "Do you remember that crazy old man also mentioned a name?"

"Li Qiang?" Xiao Ming immediately realized.

Chen Jiajun nodded and said, "This Li Qiang is an orphan who was raised by Chu Renmei. On the day Chu Renmei was buried, he happened to see Bu Wantian making a deal with that hooligan and found out what happened. So, on the day of the burial, Li Qiang told Chu Renmei, whose spirit had not yet dissipated, about it."

"Then, filled with intense resentment, Chu Renmei slaughtered Huangshan Village that very day. Within three days, she killed sixty-six people, who were the ghosts you saw earlier!"

"Hiss!" Both Xiaoming and Mr. Mao couldn't help but gasp.

However, Teacher Mao said to Chen Jiajun, "But the people of Huangshan Village seem innocent, right? Why would Chu Renmei kill them?"

Chen Jiajun revealed a strange smile: "Innocent? Who told you they're innocent?"

"Is there some hidden story?" Teacher Mao asked, looking shocked.

Chen Jiajun sneered and said, "Do you think the village chief and other villagers don't know about this? They definitely do, otherwise how could they have directly concluded that Chu Renmei was having an affair with an outsider? They're just like Bu Wantian, blinded by greed!"

"As the saying goes, 'When one person attains enlightenment, even his chickens and dogs ascend to heaven.' As long as Bu Wantian attaches himself to a powerful figure, it will benefit his entire clan, so..."

Chen Jiajun didn't continue speaking, but simply shook his head.

After hearing this, the two couldn't help but sigh, feeling sorry for Chu Renmei, such a devoted woman.

No wonder Chu Renmei went on a killing spree after transforming into a vengeful ghost; these people ultimately brought it upon themselves.

Although we sympathize with Chu Renmei, the issues that need to be resolved must be resolved.

We cannot allow the Chu people to indiscriminately kill innocent people.

Mr. Mao asked, "Mr. Chen, are you... capable of dealing with Chu Renmei?"

Chen Jiajun grinned: "What are you thinking? This woman's resentment is unusually deep. Right now, our entire Huangshan Village is shrouded in her resentment. How can such a ghost be destroyed so easily?"

Upon hearing Chen Jiajun's words, Mr. Mao and Xiaoming turned pale.

"Then... what do we do?" Xiaoming asked hurriedly.

Chen Jiajun said irritably, "Stop fighting all the time. Since Chu Renmei hasn't harmed anyone for a full hundred years, don't you guys think about why she only recently appeared?"

Mr. Mao suddenly realized the key point: "That's right, you said that Chu Renmei was alive almost a hundred years ago, so how come she suddenly appeared at this time! Mr. Chen, do you know the reason?"

Chen Jiajun stopped and pointed to the area beside him that had been dug up, saying, "Look, this is the reason!"

The two looked in the direction Chen Jiajun pointed and found that it was a construction site.

Mr. Mao immediately realized what was happening: "You mean, Chu Renmei's tomb has been dug up?" (End of Chapter)
