A passerby in a horror movie

Chapter 625 Disappointment

As this notification sounded in Li Haotian's mind,

The light gate to his left began to sway slowly, its light flickering. Then, the gate gradually disappeared, as if it had never existed in this space.

At the same time, as the light flashed, Uncle Nine's figure flickered and he slowly left the Heavenly Gate space.

Seeing this, Li Haotian turned around and walked towards the light gate on the right without hesitation.

As soon as he approached the door, a mysterious force enveloped him.

He felt a sudden darkness before his eyes, followed by a dazzling white light.

When he regained his sight, he found himself in a completely new world.

What comes into view is a wide but slightly noisy road.

On the road, vehicles flowed like a tide, with cars and motorcycles speeding past.

The tires rubbed against the ground, making a soft rustling sound, and the headlights flashed, their red and white lights intertwining to illuminate the entire street.

It was around dusk, and the sunset glow on the horizon had not yet completely faded, turning the sky into a magnificent orange-red.

The shops along the street lit up their signs and lights, and colorful lights shone from the windows and storefronts, illuminating the street and making it even more bustling and lively.

"Traditional Chinese characters, so this must be Hong Kong Island."

Li Haotian stood at a corner of the street, slightly raising his head.

He carefully observed the architectural style around him, as well as the eye-catching lettering on the road signs.

Looking at the surrounding architectural style and the traditional Chinese characters on the road signs, Li Haotian was basically certain that this was Hong Kong Island. He had traveled through many Hong Kong Island movies before and was very familiar with the style of this place.

After taking a closer look, Li Haotian noticed that the surrounding buildings and vehicles were quite old, so he concluded that the timeline should be relatively early.

Sure enough, he slowly took out his phone.

This phone has already taken on the look of a bulky, old-fashioned brick phone.

Shortly after I took it out, the phone started vibrating violently, the screen flashed with colorful lights, and then a virtual screen slowly appeared.

A message appeared on the virtual screen: "Attached video".

Upon clicking, the first thing you see is the four large characters "Zhong Kui Marries Off His Sister".

Li Haotian immediately began quickly browsing through the movie videos.

Story content:

Zhong Kui's sister has been married eighteen times, but has never been able to find a good match to marry.

During this long wait, her soul remained in the underworld, unable to be reincarnated.

Moreover, if she cannot get married within the stipulated time, she will forever lose the opportunity to be reincarnated.

To ensure his sister's successful reincarnation, Zhong Kui went to great lengths, meticulously arranging a grand wedding procession.

The wedding procession was grand and impressive.

The sedan chair bearers were all underworld ghost messengers, and the procession was filled with music and fanfare, creating a grand spectacle that demonstrated Zhong Kui's high regard for this wedding.

However, on their way to pick up the bride, they encountered Li Shimin, a male prostitute who was accompanying a client to the underworld.

He unintentionally had physical contact with Zhong Kui's sister.

Zhong Kui's younger sister, Zhong Ling, was extremely traditional. After being touched, she became convinced of Li Shimin's identity and was determined to marry him.

Upon learning of this, Zhong Kui immediately launched an investigation to find out Li Shimin's origins.

When Zhong Kui learned that he was actually a male prostitute, he immediately objected.

In his view, such a status was not worthy of his sister at all.

However, Zhong Ling insisted on marrying him. Faced with his sister's insistence, Zhong Kui was unwilling, but in the end he had no choice but to compromise.

He felt that since his sister had chosen this person herself, he shouldn't interfere anymore. The most important thing was that his sister could get married and then be reincarnated.

So he planned to take his sister to find Li Shimin. After finding Li Shimin, Li Shimin thought his sister was a guest who had come to order her.

After accompanying Zhong Ling to finish the play, he demanded money from her, which saddened Zhong Ling for a long time.

But she didn't intend to give up. She kept pestering Li Shimin and even helped him out of a predicament, saving him.

Li Shimin was terrified after learning that Zhong Ling and Zhong Kui were ghosts.

But when he learned that he only had three days to live, he pretended to befriend Zhong Ling and even persuaded her to change the Book of Life and Death for him.

Zhong Ling was indeed fooled and, together with Zhong Kui, stole the Book of Life and Death to help Li Shimin change his lifespan.

The ghost judge was furious when he learned of this and came to stop and arrest them, but he was stopped by Zhong Kui.

For his sister's happiness, Zhong Kui disregarded the laws of the underworld and resolutely fought against the judge of the underworld.

After several fierce battles, the Ghost Judge was driven back. Later, in the underworld, in order to rescue Li Shimin and allow his sister to be reincarnated, Zhong Kui joined forces with the ghost messengers to kill the Ghost Judge.

Finally, Zhong Kui successfully arranged for Li Shimin to sign a contract with his sister, thus tying the knot and allowing them to be reincarnated together.

After watching the commissioned video, Li Haotian finally gained a comprehensive and in-depth understanding of the movie's plot.

The film is not complicated in its overall structure.

Its worldview and narrative logic have a strong Hong Kong film style.

Moreover, I recognize several of the actors in the film.

Among them, the actor who played Zhong Kui was none other than Mr. Wu Ma.

However, after watching the movie, Li Haotian was still somewhat disappointed with the performance of the character Zhong Kui.

The plot of the movie was almost identical to what he had heard from his Uncle Nine and his senior brother Shih Kin.

Although movies and plays may differ in their forms of expression and details—after all, movies have their own artistic processing and creative space—the basic plot remains consistent.

That is, in order to marry off his sister, Zhong Kui completely disregarded the constraints of the laws of the underworld. He not only acted eccentrically and recklessly, but he even actually killed the judge of the underworld.

No wonder the Ghost Judge issued the mission; it's such a damn injustice.

Moreover, Li Haotian analyzed the plot of the movie in depth and found that the ghost judge did not make any mistakes.

On the contrary, he always maintained a fair and rigorous attitude, thinking only of the order of the underworld, and doing his best to fulfill his duties.

When he saw Zhong Kui and his sister, as well as the mortal Li Shimin's behavior, he decisively took action to capture them.

All of this is to ensure that the order of the underworld is maintained and that the rules of the underworld are implemented.

You should know that the male prostitute named Li Shimin had already been confirmed to have only three days to live according to the Book of Life and Death, but Zhong Kui's sister insisted on helping him change his fate and tamper with the Book of Life and Death.

This behavior clearly violates the rules of the underworld. In the past, being directly cast into the eighteenth level of hell would have been considered lenient.

It was entirely reasonable for the judge of the underworld to intervene and stop them.

But Zhong Kui insisted on helping his sister, seemingly ignoring the laws and rules of the underworld. In his world, his sister's affairs seemed to be above all else.
