This humble Taoist priest is going to be a movie star!

In Hu Jun's eyes, the Taoist priest in front of him...

He's handsome enough to be an actor.

Perform a ritual...

She's way too young.

"It's been a long time since I've performed a ritual, I'm a bit rusty," Li Qing murmured, twirling the Bagua bell in her hand.

Hu Jun and Ju Xue's hearts skipped a beat.

Oh no, looks like we'll have to change filming locations tonight.

"Young man..."

"Oh, brother, this is Master Xuanqing, he's really skilled!" Wang Baoqiang patted his chest and assured him, "I, a lay disciple of Shaolin, wouldn't last three moves against him."

"Isn't he a disciple of Shaoshi Mountain?" Ju Xue looked at Hu Jun with a puzzled expression.

Hu Jun touched his head; it seemed he couldn't hide Ju Xue's secret any longer.

"Well, aren't lay disciples still disciples?" Hu Jun said with a helpless smile.

That laugh seemed a bit forced.

Ma Xiaoning was delighted to see Li Qing, whom Wang Baoqiang had brought back.

This master is really young.

He was rather handsome.

Ma Xiaoning inwardly scoffed, but outwardly remained polite.

"Young Taoist priest, could you help us ward off bad luck on set?"

"Okay, five hundred yuan, I guarantee you'll be satisfied," Li Qing said with a smile.

Ma Xiaoning felt that Li Qing was more genuine. Other feng shui masters, big and small, all acted high and mighty, saying that their intentions and the offerings of incense were up to fate, but in reality, they would get upset if you gave them too little incense or red envelopes, and sometimes they would say unlucky things, making people feel uncomfortable.

"Okay, then take a look for me."

Li Qing then took out a tortoise shell and a feng shui compass.

Anyway, they did a series of seemingly professional operations that Hu Jun and Ma Xiaoning couldn't understand.

Although I don't understand it, it looks very impressive.

Bagua Fengshui, a prominent school of thought in the I Ching.

The feng shui is auspicious.

This shows that Ma Xiaoning put in a lot of effort; the set layout conformed to the auspicious directions in Feng Shui.

As for why the disturbance occurred...

Li Qing glanced at the land not far away, then dug into the soil and smelled it.

"This used to be a mass grave, didn't it?"

"This...was that Baoqiang said?"

"I didn't say that! I didn't know this used to be a mass grave." Wang Baoqiang stood timidly at the back: "This used to be a mass grave!"

Wang Baoqiang believed this, and only now is he belatedly realizing he's a little scared.

Li Qing said lazily.

"Our land of China has a history of five thousand years. Let alone this mountain, even the place where you live has seen people die over the years. Don't dwell on this. If you dwell on this, you might never have enough to eat or wear again."

This completely baffled Hu Jun and Ma Xiaoning. Was there really such a thing?

Generally speaking, wouldn't someone who performs rituals know that this is a mass grave and then use it as an excuse to make a big deal out of it? This young Taoist priest is not playing by the rules.

"Alright, I should be fine if I perform a ritual here this afternoon."

.....

Regardless of whether Li Qing, this seemingly young Taoist priest, is reliable or not, this is the only way to proceed for now.

Although neither Ma Xiaoning, Hu Jun, nor Ju Xue felt it was of any use.

Hu Jun and Ju Xue felt that the Taoist priest looked too young, too young to be the kind of young person who was active and skilled in feng shui.

Ma Xiaoning, on the other hand, was much more straightforward. He simply thought that the problem between Hu Jun and Ju Xue was very simple.

Increase the intensity and dosage!

Sleeping pills and melatonin are all you need to do; there's no need for all those fancy stuff.

Everything stems from psychological factors.

These psychological factors led to the problems of Ju Xue and Hu Jun.

Li Qing watched Wang Baoqiang squatting down beside her, watching the film set.

He would occasionally pull out a copy of "An Actor Prepares" and ask Li Qing how to pronounce certain characters.

Li Qing then said.

"What brings you here today?"

"I don't have any scenes to film today."

Wang Baoqiang chuckled and said, "The bodyguards aren't with you every single moment, right?"

That makes a lot of sense.

After watching The Actor's Self-Cultivation for a while, Wang Baoqiang's eyes became a little sore, and then he stared at Hu Jun on set.

Li Qing asked.

"envious?"

Li Qing noticed that Wang Baoqiang's eyes were shining as he stared at Hu Jun.

"I admire my older brother very much, and I am also very grateful to him."

Wang Baoqiang said, "If it weren't for my elder brother, I wouldn't have gotten this position as a bodyguard..."

"That's all for now, let's get some rest, everyone."

While Hu Jun was resting, Wang Baoqiang also brought tea and water, and towels for Hu Jun and Ju Xue.

I chatted and laughed with them, as if I were part of the group... it didn't feel forced at all.

Despite being a simpleton who doesn't seem to have much education or good looks, he blends in perfectly without looking out of place.

Wang Baoqiang desperately wanted to establish himself in Hengdian. Although he knew that his appearance was not very good, he had to work hard to improve himself and also try to curry favor with the big actors.

But for Wang Baoqiang, a poor appearance is not an excuse for not working hard.

...

Li Qing was preparing for the ritual tonight.

As dusk approached and the sun began to set, Zhu Yuanzhang and Empress Ma, who had managed to maintain their composure during the day, gradually lost their energy.

"Why does it feel like something's getting creepy?" Ju Xue said somewhat uncomfortably.

"It's a bit chilly at night," Ma Xiaoning said with a smile, watching Li Qing fiddling with the things.

Everyone had different mindsets. Some, like Ma Xiaoning, didn't believe it from the beginning and thought it was just for psychological comfort. Others, like Hu Jun and Ju Xue, thought the young sorcerer was too young.

In short, no one was particularly enthusiastic.

Li Qing was fiddling with it from the side.

Right next to the film set, they put some chickens, ducks, geese, and the like.

Wang Baoqiang was incredibly tempted by what he saw, and lately he's been eating nothing but steamed buns and plain water all the time.

"It smells delicious!"

"These are offerings," Li Qing paused and said, "If you don't mind after the ceremony, it's not impossible."

"No, no." Wang Baoqiang wasn't about to risk getting into trouble.

Meanwhile, Ju Xue whispered in Hu Jun's ear, "I know a master, how about I..."

at this time.

Li Qing smiled and walked up to the offerings, lighting incense.

When the incense was lit, everyone felt that the Taoist priest's demeanor had suddenly changed.

Quiet and still.

The change in her demeanor caught everyone off guard.

So this is what the Taoist priest looks like when he gets serious.

At that time, the Savior from Suffering,

It pervades the ten directions, constantly using its majestic power to rescue all sentient beings from delusion.

Sentient beings are unaware, like the blind seeing the sun and moon; I am originally from the vast emptiness, reaching out to the boundless limit.

Auspicious clouds open the gate of life, and auspicious smoke fills the gate of death; the primordial chaos begins anew, thus establishing the mechanism of auspicious influence.

The classical Chinese text flowed smoothly from Li Qing's mouth, just like modern vernacular, with a touch of ancient charm in his speech.

Incense smoke.

The scriptures are recited.

At this moment, even Ma Xiaoning forgot to smoke.

It started with the passage of time.

And then there are the fireflies at dusk.

Fireflies fluttering about.

Very beautiful.
