I'm wandering in the world

Chapter 59: Famous Cantonese Opera Star Chu Renmei

The seven-day relaxation period was over, and the card "Edith's Obsession" that had traveled through time was restored to its original state, but it had faded into a black and white card...

Chen Qingyuan was still a little reluctant, so he drove the abducted women and children out of the village in a van, and dropped them off near the largest police station in the city, letting them call the police themselves. Although surveillance was not so popular in this era, and the quality of surveillance video was very poor, it was better not to show his face in order to come back in the future.

This relaxing trip is a world away...

Chen Qingyuan filled the regrets in his heart. For example, Ayang's mother would no longer go crazy and the family would no longer be broken.

But one regret is that this pistol magazine has 17 rounds of bullets, which is really not enough...

At this moment, a small chaotic vortex appeared on the ground in the gray space. Chen Qingyuan knew that it was time for him to go to work. He took out his pistol, pulled the bolt a few times, put it into the teardrop, straightened his collar, stepped into the vortex, and whoosh~~~he disappeared like smoke...

……

Bah!

Car horns honked, and Chen Qingyuan found himself standing on the side of a busy street. He subconsciously reached for his pocket, where his wallet was. When he opened it, he saw a thick stack of working capital and various temporary ID photos.

There was a park near the street. He bought a ticket, went in, found a bench in a secluded location, sat down, leaned back in the chair, and took out his cell phone.

This time the phone is a green screen button phone and does not have a color screen function.

Chen Qingyuan tapped the receiver of his phone with his finger and said, "What is the mission this time? Please send me the content and the world plot."

The phone emitted a polyphonic text message ringtone, indicating an incoming message.

After opening it, Chen Qingyuan sat up straight. Wow, the green screen phone could also show him the entire video. The conflict between the times and technological culture was really interesting...

The video started playing, and it turned out to be an old movie he had seen before, called "Old Corpse in the Mountain Village"...

The plot of this movie is not complicated:
The protagonist Ah Ming is born with the ability to see ghosts. He and his four friends play a game of summoning spirits, but it attracts evil spirits. Three of his friends die one after another, so Ah Ming asks his cousin for help. The cousin is afraid that Ah Ming will die too, so she turns around and goes to find a good friend. The drama teacher is terrified!

They followed clues all the way to Huangshan Village, where they discovered an old supernatural event through an old man named Li Qiang.

There used to be a famous Cantonese opera actress named Chu Renmei in Huangshan Village. Her husband Pu Wantian was greedy for money and framed her and was tragically killed by the villagers. Li Qiang was a child at the time and accidentally discovered the truth of the matter. He told the story to Chu Renmei's corpse. As a result, Chu Renmei went mad and killed 3 villagers in 66 days.

Li Qiang came over to plead for mercy, and only by taking out the peace bracelet that Chu Renmei had given her that year was he able to calm her resentment.

As a result, after a hundred years, an airport transmitter was built near the village. The barren mountain where Chu Renmei's body was buried was razed to the ground, and the body was thrown into a nearby pool. The peace bracelet fell off, and the resentment dissolved into the water. Chu Renmei reappeared in the world and began to kill, including the protagonist Amin.

When Chu Renmei was about to kill A Ming's cousin, the drama teacher Fa Mao, who had always had a crush on the cousin, ignored his fear and hallucinations and forcefully hugged the cousin to try to protect her, allowing Chu Renmei to see where true love lies, and she let them go. This is the ending of the movie.

After the phone finishes playing the video, it returns to its original state.

A text message came, it was a task: [Resolve Chu Renmei's resentment and help her enter reincarnation. ]

Chen Qingyuan asked a question: "Your Excellency, you want me, an ordinary citizen with no magic power, to fight against a fierce ghost like Chu Renmei? It would be better to ask me to study lithography machines to contribute to the country..." The phone did not respond.

This mission doesn't seem to have a time limit, but I don't know when the story of the protagonist Amin and his companions will begin.

The protagonist Amin is a man of some courage and brains, and he has the ability to see ghosts and spirits.

At the beginning of the movie, four friends were clamoring to play the game of summoning spirits, but Ah Ming was the only one who said he didn't want to play, thinking it was too dangerous. When he saw Chu Renmei appear, he immediately stood up to stop the game from continuing, fearing that something unexpected would happen...

It's a pity that when his girlfriend was possessed in the middle period, the horrific hallucination scared A-Ming. Chu Renmei didn't see his true love and killed him at the bottom of the pool.

Chen Qingyuan looked at the task content on his phone. Although he felt it was difficult, he was not bothered. After all, worrying would only cause him to suffer internally and would not bring him a solution...

That’s it for now, let’s eat first.

He returned to the world of his memory, and except for that bowl of noodle soup, he had not had a proper meal yet.

It was the late 90s, and we were located in Hong Kong Island, a time of rapid economic development with many interesting new things.

Chen Qingyuan left the park and hailed a taxi. He handed over five hundred-yuan bills and said, "Find me the most famous and reliable food restaurant. Don't take me to a place that specifically rips off tourists. Got it!"

The driver's eyes lit up when he saw the hundred-dollar bill. He took it and said with a grin, "Sure. I can cheat others, but I can't cheat a generous and handsome guest like you. I know there's a restaurant nearby called 'You Guqi'. The food there is absolutely top-notch."

……

A restaurant with backbone?
Chen Qingyuan sat in the restaurant's private room and looked at the menu. He smiled and said, "Bring up your signature dish, Nine Heavens Dragon Spikes, and some of the other popular dishes. Don't rush the process and miss out on the heat. I won't shortchange you on your money."

He casually slapped a bill into the waiter's pocket.

The waiter thought that only one person would come to eat, and it would be a waste of the private room. He did not expect this guest to be so generous. He immediately smiled and nodded and said, "Please rest assured, sir, the food will be authentic!"

Soon the dishes came up one by one.

Chen Qingyuan tasted these dishes from the 90s and couldn't help nodding. The things at that time were still relatively natural.

His mind was not idle either, he was thinking about the mission content and the plot of "Old Corpse in the Mountain Village". If you watch it too hastily, many people will mistakenly think that the reason why A-Ming and his friends died in this drama was purely because they drank the water in the pool where Chu Renmei's corpse was soaked, and they were controlled by hallucinations and died...

As long as you don't drink the water you'll be fine.

Although it was only mentioned in a few sentences in the drama, Chu Renmei's military record did exist in the Republic of China, with 3 kills in 66 days.

Chu Renmei was a tragic character when she was alive. She married Pu Wantian, a teacher in Huangshan Village. However, Pu Wantian fell in love with the daughter of a money shop owner and wanted to marry her, but was hindered by the fact that there was still Chu Renmei at home. In that era, a man could not divorce his wife unless she made any mistakes. So Pu Wantian lied that he owed money to a gangster and asked Chu Renmei to sacrifice herself to pay off the debt.

Chu Renmei loved Pu Wantian so much that she went there alone, even though she was heartbroken. Unexpectedly, she fell into Pu Wantian's trap. He asked the villagers to catch her on the spot, force her to wear the hat of "whore", and wanted to execute her for the reputation of the village! In order for her husband Pu Wantian to live a good life, Chu Renmei was stoned to death by the villagers without any explanation, and her body was thrown into the deserted mountains...
