Gu Wuji later figured out the cause of the matter from the confused words of the man named Tao.
It turned out that someone wanted to create dirt on him so that he could be ruined.
Gu Wuji was shocked. He never thought that he would be involved in such a thing. Then he couldn’t help but feel a little moved, feeling that he was one step closer to his goal. After all, as a well-known actor, he felt that he should always encounter such things.
Even when the man surnamed Tao was extremely afraid that he would be killed, he told all the information about the financial backer behind him.
Gu Wuji felt that this person’s name was quite familiar. It seemed that when he had an agent, he took him to a banquet to meet a boss… That person seemed to have a very good attitude, although the cooperation later became more difficult. So he just let it go. Why would the other party harm him like this when he is fine?
“Sure enough, although there are many good people in the world, there are also such unprovoked evil people.” Gu Wuji thought thoughtfully.
In fact, the real situation was that the other party wanted to use unspoken rules on Gu Wuji, but Gu Wuji failed to notice the other party’s hint completely… and even accidentally showed his amazing strength, until the boss and his subordinates were paralyzed with fear, thinking that Gu Wuji was making a deliberate threat.
In short, without Gu Wuji knowing anything about it, the other party already held a grudge against this matter.
“Then let’s go. Of course, this thing is just in case.” Gu Wuji stretched out his hand and easily squeezed the tool in front of him to deform it and said calmly: “I’d better destroy it first.”
The man surnamed Tao seeing this scene, almost fainted from fright. He felt that what he saw was another proof that Gu Wuji was not human! How could an ordinary person do this?
No wonder when the boss was looking for him to work, the secretary that was still nearby hinted that he should be careful. Before, he thought he was saying he should be careful of the security of the community… Now thinking about it, it was just a reminder for him to be careful! This boss is so cruel, he actually let him deal with such a person!
When the man surnamed Tao came out of Gu Wuji’s home, he felt the gentle breeze and bright sunshine from the outside world again. He felt that he had escaped from death and loved life even more.
Of course, the man surnamed Tao no longer dared to complain about Gu Wuji, but his heart was full of resentment towards the financial sponsor, and he was already planning how to ruin his reputation.
….
The Ning family members who were monitoring Gu Wuji’s home were a little surprised. They didn’t expect Gu Wuji to let the outsider go so easily. They felt that he was still a good person.
And coupled with their surveillance during this period, they all felt that there was nothing wrong with caring about Wuji, and his whole life was so simple.
“Is such a person really related to the Bai family?”
“Is he really just inexplicably involved in this incident…”
“However, the strange things that appear on this person from time to time are still difficult to explain.”
The Ning family members talked a lot, but their impression of Gu Wuji inevitably changed.
Although even if Gu Wuji really wanted to kill that person, they would not help. The Ning family was not a kind family to begin with. But these people still had some fears in their hearts.
“Since the other party is not such a vicious person, let’s not attack the young master of the Cheng family first. If we push him too hard, things may become difficult.”
No one noticed that the Yin Qi in their room had already become so rich that a black mist even appeared faintly in the mirror.
Then the door was pushed open and Ning Yang walked in.
The moment he came in, the room instantly returned to its usual appearance, with no trace of anything out of the ordinary.
“Master Ning Yang, you’re back.”
“What did you gain? This Xia family’s party shouldn’t be simple. Even people from the Bai family will be there, and the people there are all crazy.”
No one was surprised. Realizing that they might have escaped from the gate of hell, they all started talking.
They only found out not long ago that Ning Yang actually got in touch with people from the Xia family, and even got a place to attend the Xia family banquet. He had obviously been playing outside before… He was worthy of being valued by the family. People who seemed to be doing nothing were actually already preparing for everything.
Although the Xia family were just ordinary people, they were still somewhat famous in their circle… The reason was of course because of the secrets hidden in their ancestral home.
“There is nothing wrong with the Xia family.” Ning Yang said, “How is your investigation going on this careless matter?”
The others couldn’t help but fall silent, mainly because they hadn’t found anything out of the investigation for so long! It’s almost embarrassing to say it out loud.
“It doesn’t matter.” Ning Yang didn’t mean to be displeased and said, “Just let me go and meet him in the next few days.”
….
Gu Wuji sent Cheng Jia all the news that the man named Tao told him.
Cheng Jia was furious. Someone actually wanted to get dirty information about Master Gu. This was so audacious that they treated the Cheng family as nothing!
He immediately contacted the contact person angrily. The Cheng family was originally engaged in this industry, and they knew a lot of dirty information about many people. And that boss was not a good person. He had also done many things to force other celebrities. Now they were all exposed.
For a time, this matter caused a stir.
The boss was so angry in the office that he threw his cell phone down, “Damn it, isn’t it just a few little stars whom I have had unspoken rules with? To make it such a big deal… The Cheng family is also not embarrassed, just for a mere 18-line star. It’s such a big deal to do something like this without any plan.”
The secretary next to him said nothing, although he felt that there was nothing wrong with what the Cheng family did this time.
“You haven’t contacted Lao Tao yet? If he hadn’t been exposed this time, how could things have turned out like this!” The boss said angrily, “I will make it impossible for him to survive in this circle!”
The secretary said carefully: “There is no news yet.”
The boss immediately sat back in his chair angrily and saw another message sent to him. After opening it, his face turned pale.
After all, this boss had forced so many young stars before, but one time the star was so fierce that he committed suicide in the hotel, causing an uproar. The boss spent money to cover up the matter, but at this time, he didn’t know who exposed it. And they came out and even produced hotel surveillance as evidence.
“Who the hell is this? Suppress the news quickly, no matter how much it costs!” The boss looked at the secretary next to him with an ugly face, but suddenly his body froze.
He saw that the secretary’s face had turned extremely pale at some point, her eyes were even more bloodshot, and the smile on his face was a bit troubling, “Have you ever thought that you would also have this day?”
“You, You…it’s you…” The boss immediately realized something and stood up suddenly and took a few steps back, “It’s not me who killed you! It’s because you can’t think of it! You just need to be honest and obedient after taking the money… “
The ‘Secretary’ just sneered and walked forward. Although he turned into a ghost due to resentment, he was bound to the hotel and could not leave. But a few days ago, he didn’t know what happened. Suddenly he felt that the hotel’s restraint on him disappeared, and he immediately came to the door.
When the police arrived, they saw the secretary who had collapsed on the ground and was unconscious, while the boss next to him had strangled his neck and suffocated to death.
Seeing this weird scene, the police would probably be frightened if they didn’t have strong psychological endurance.
Looking at the surveillance video, all they could see was the boss going crazy for no apparent reason, grabbing his own neck, and screaming in pain.
Although it looked like he had a mental problem, the video was full of weirdness.
“How many times have things like this happened recently…”
“The same happened to the deceased yesterday. While shouting sorry, he stabbed himself dozens of times with a knife. The position was extremely accurate and did not hurt his vitals, he just died of excessive bleeding.”
Everyone’s expressions became solemn, and they were vaguely aware of what was going to happen.
….
Gu Wuji had no idea about these things. He entered the system space and took a look. It seemed that Rong Qingman had not been online since he left the dungeon, but it was obvious that the other party was still alive.
Gu Wuji was relieved to see that he was still alive. As for the others, Gu Wuji asked them about their situation at that time. These people were shocked that Gu Wuji would contact them, and then they all just shook their heads.
They were just passers-by at the time. How could they possibly know what was going on? All they did was hide in a corner and keep being shocked, and then leave the dungeon when they came to their senses… They thought Gu Wuji would definitely know!
Then the three people repeatedly promised that they would never tell anyone about what happened next.
In fact, they also found that they couldn’t view the videos after the last dungeon at all, and they were simply frightened. They felt that they had seen something they shouldn’t have seen, and how dare they say anything outside.
It didn’t matter to Gu Wuji, since he just used the pseudonym Sun Shi anyway.
Then he began to investigate the name told to him by the red-haired follower in the copy. Although you could not purchase other people’s detailed information in the system mall, after all, the system was not so immoral.
But as long as you spend points, you could check what posts the person with this name had been posted, as well as some of their videos, in short, all the information you could find was there.
After Gu Wuji checked, he found that it was just a fake name. The only person that appeared was the middle-aged man who was the one who was tricked last time when he was selling information on the forum.
“It seems that the senior player behind him is quite cautious.” Gu Wuji thought, “If you really want to find out more information, maybe you can only buy the information sold by the other party…”
But now there was no need to go to this step. After all, he knew too little about high-level players. It would not be too late to wait until he had enough strength to investigate.
Then Gu Wuji saw a post in a general forum.
“I don’t know if it’s my misunderstanding. But don’t you think that supernatural events are happening more and more frequently in the real world?”
“I also feel that they often appear around me recently. I originally thought it was because of me, but I always feel that the situation is very strange.”
Many people below reported the situation around them, and the more they looked at it, the more horrified they became.
“Won’t our world become like the existence in those copy worlds if it continues like this?” One person expressed his biggest worry.
Gu Wuji: “…” What, isn’t this real world already very haunted?
For Gu Wuji, the difference between the feeling and the reality when he usually brushed dungeons was not that big. The bigger problem was that he would meet evil spirits who were interested in him, which made him quite anxious.
But after all, his physique was different from ordinary people. From the situation of these people, he could see that maybe the situation in the real world was changing now…
Gu Wuji vaguely felt that this change must not have started recently, but might have been happening since decades ago, and it may be related to those advanced players.
