The system makes me so beautiful that I don't care about anyone else's life or death.

"If my daughter were born to serve those beasts who are worse than pigs and dogs, I would rather she die in the womb than suffer this undeserved misfortune!"

"But she was very resilient. No matter how many times I hit my stomach or how many times I was beaten, she survived."

"For my daughter's sake, I will endure humiliation and try to please those people, or be beaten and vent my anger. I will live on strongly, and at the very least, I will send her away."

"So I always secretly told her that her biological father's name was Sun Cai, and that she must find him if she had the chance and tell him that her mother's name was Wang Biqing."

“I thought that Xiao Bao would be safe until at least the age of ten.”

"But she's only eight years old now, and those beasts who are worse than animals are actually eyeing her!"

At this point, Wang Biqing's eyes were filled with resentment, and she gritted her teeth.

"Then why did you ask Xiaobao to find me?" Su Ran didn't want to call him 'Jia Denan' and instead called him Xiaobao along with Wang Biqing.

Wang Biqing lowered her eyes and explained:

"Perhaps it was a blessing from heaven, but an outsider came to the village. A man with a full beard came to collect folk songs, and no one knows how he got there, but he somehow stumbled into Mingyuan Village."

"He said he was a director and felt that our environment was very suitable for the subject matter he wanted to film, and suggested that the actors experience it for a period of time."

"People in the village don't know him, but I, who have lived in the city, do. He is Director Han, who is very famous in the film and television industry for messing with artists."

"But on his second visit, he unfortunately fell off a cliff."

“A large chunk of my hope has collapsed.”

“Those beasts in the village are very happy. They say that when you celebrities and guests come, no one will find out how they deal with you because the only person who knows, Director Han, is already dead.”

"On the day you arrived, you were the most conspicuous person among them."

"Even though the mask covered your face, it couldn't hide your unparalleled beauty. I was thinking to myself at that time, someone like you would be eye-catching wherever you go. Does no one really care about you? Are they comfortable letting you come to such a dilapidated village all by yourself?"

"So I told Xiaobao, 'Follow you and get along well with you. Maybe if she encounters difficulties, you will help her.'"

Su Ran countered, "What if I'm not a good person either?"

After all, she had two lives on her hands, and she never considered herself a good person.

Perhaps it was from a woman's perspective, witnessing the suffering of other women, that she felt a pang of pity.

Upon hearing this, Wang Biqing gave a bitter smile, "Could things get any worse than they are now? Even if you kill us, we might thank you for keeping us away from hell on earth. At worst, it's just stepping from one hell into another; there's no difference."

Su Ran silently used fire tongs to pick up the dry grass, lit it with a lighter, and burned some grass and wood ash.

"We don't have alcohol for disinfection, so let's use this for now."

"Thank you."

She applied wood ash to Wang Biqing's wound.

After confirming that the two had left, Lan Yue opened the door and ran quickly toward Su Ran.

Su Ran opened the door for her.

Lan Yue rushed in, closed the door, and turned back to Su Ran, her voice trembling with suppressed fear:

"I feel like this village is a bit strange, it doesn't seem like a script." She was a single woman in the middle of the night, and even if it was a script, she was still scared when two men broke into her home.

"Don't rush. We'll find a chance to go down the mountain when it's light tomorrow." Su Ran was making a clay stove by mixing the soil he dug at the door with the corn stalks he picked up outside when Lan Yue interrupted him unexpectedly.

Looking at Su Ran's diligent efforts in building the earthen stove, Lan Yue felt that he didn't seem to be going down the mountain at all, but rather that he was going to settle down for a while.

"Aren't you coming with me?" she asked.

Su Ran turned to look at her, her eyes filled with a smile, "Of course I'm leaving, but Director Han has arranged such a fun game, I want to play it all the way through."

"Play?" Lan Yue was shocked. "This is no joke! You could lose your life! If you don't like it, you'll come with me tomorrow!"

As soon as Lan Yue finished speaking, Wang Biqing, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, said urgently:

"We can't get down the mountain!"

Lan Yue's face was almost in tears. "What do you mean?"

“Ever since you arrived, they have had people guarding the foot of the mountain.”

"Impossible. Director Han's men must be down there too. He wouldn't abandon us on the mountain."

Wang Biqing asked in confusion, "Director Han is still alive?"

Blue Moon: "Yeah, could it be that he's dead?"

Wang Biqing: "Isn't that right?"

After Lan Yue said a few words, Su Ran asked Little Butterfly to remove the shield.

As soon as Su Ran's live stream opened, Director Han and the viewers heard this conversation and couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

While the audience was wondering what was going on, Director Han unilaterally raised the white flag.

He shut down Su Ran and Lan Yue's live stream, and the screen that viewers saw was black again.

Director Han used the satellite system of the live broadcast equipment to transmit his message.

"I'm not dead, I'm perfectly fine."

"Director Han, you..." Lan Yue exclaimed in surprise.

"Stop! I know what question you want to ask, but don't ask it yet," Director Han quickly cut off Lan Yue's words.

Then he said, "Ghost Voice, Blue Moon, stay with these villagers and finish this play."

"Reason?" Su Ran raised an eyebrow.

At that moment, an unfamiliar male voice came from inside.

"Hello, we are police officers. We need to use Director Han's camera to gather sufficient evidence. Thank you for your hard work during this time."

Thanks to the netizen who reported the domestic violence, the police officers, who had been handling cases for many years, sensed that something was wrong with this mountain village, so they found Director Han.

Director Han had been lording it over the artists for years, but he still didn't dare to cause trouble in front of his loyal and upright protégés, so the two sides cooperated.

Initially, Director Han only wanted to use the interaction between the artists to expose the evil in human nature, and also to temper the actors' arrogance and reduce their modern air, so that they would be more in line with the characters in his film script.

But little did I expect that this really was a village of villains.

Upon hearing that it was the police, Wang Biqing burst into tears of joy and ran over to shout at the hidden camera.

"Are you really police officers? Can you take my daughter away? Please, please help me!" She then remembered something, "And Sun Cai, my lover's name is Sun Cai! I was abducted, I'm not from Mingyuan Village at all!"

"Ms. Wang, please don't be agitated. We'll send someone to contact Mr. Sun right away. Don't worry, we will definitely make sure you and your daughter can go home!"

“Okay, okay!” Wang Biqing nodded eagerly.

"But... during this time, please don't make any moves that might alert the enemy, and don't let others notice anything amiss. Just stay by Ms. Guiyin's side and do your best."

"Okay, officer, I will definitely cooperate!" Hearing that there was hope, Wang Biqing was trembling all over.

Lan Yue disagreed, "Just a few of us women? If they stab us, can you save us before they do? No, I want to go down there, I'm scared."

It's normal for Lan Yue to be like this. She had just experienced a terrifying scene, and now all she could think about was going down the mountain and going home.

"Don't get agitated. If you leave now, you'll only provoke them, especially since you've already discovered they've picked the lock. They'll definitely worry that you'll call the police after you go down the mountain. Right now, you'll definitely be under their close surveillance."

"What should we do then?" Lan Yue was somewhat at a loss.

At this moment, Su Ran spoke up, sneering, "Then let's put on an act."

Her gaze met that of the police officer without her even realizing it.

"If any bloodshed occurs during the filming, please don't take it to heart by the police; it's all necessary for the plot."

Standing behind Director Han, Chang Yu choked, vaguely sensing that the ghostly voice's gaze was inexplicably eerie.

But I still had to go along with her and say, "As long as it's legitimate self-defense, there's absolutely no problem."

"it is good."

The next morning, before dawn, Su Ran opened her eyes.

She got up and brushed her teeth and washed her face in an orderly manner, then sorted out the kudzu root powder that she had ground with a stone the previous afternoon.

Under the cover of my backpack, I took out a filter cloth and filtered the food again and again. Since there was no rain or snow today, I laid a cloth out at the door to dry it.

Lan Yue didn't dare go back to her room, so she spent the night in Su Ran's room wrapped in an electric blanket. She relaxed and chatted with Su Ran.

“Lu Qiuyi’s two protectors run to her place every few days, so she’s very safe. Even Lu Xiaoqing is always clinging to Gao Zhiyuan, never giving herself a chance to be alone. No wonder she tried to break into my house last night.”

"Ghost Voice, I'd better stay with you. I feel safe with you."

Su Ran brought out the collected damp firewood. "If you're coming with me, then help me dry this firewood. I don't keep idle people around."

Blue Moon: "..."

Blue Moon obediently went to dry the firewood.

Seeing this, Xiao Bao was afraid that Su Ran would think she was a busybody. Seeing that there were still some mushrooms that she had picked yesterday that hadn't been processed, she said excitedly, "Sister Guiyin, let me help you wash the mushrooms."

Wang Biqing, who had been beaten and was injured, tried to get up, but Su Ran pressed her down. "Get up and do chores after you're healed. I'm afraid you'll be bored. Help me pick some wild vegetables first."

[Ghostly voice: I don't support idlers.]

[Ghostly voice: It's okay if you can't get up, as long as your hands are okay, you have to get to work.]

[Ghostly voice: Everyone has to work]
