soul collector

"Traveling the Number One Scholar" is the most popular variety show in the past month. The guests settled in the small villas in the mountains, and there will be random guests in each episode.Every guest has a unique style of painting requirements, and the guests must be satisfied.The special guest in the previous issue was a fashion king with a very cool personal image, but he made a lot of fools because of his unfortunate hit in the "baker" industry. He almost blew up the kitchen and ended in a dismal end, which also won the ratings.

With the hot spots of the previous episodes, the program team racked their brains even more to figure out how to make the show more interactive. This episode simply equipped each guest with live broadcast equipment.

This villa has three floors, each floor is small, but the layout is very delicate, and the outdoor space is rich in layers.The four resident guests all had their own fixed bedrooms, the big room on the second floor was reserved for Zhang Kaixing and his wife, and the small cubicle half outside the living room on the first floor belonged to Tang Xiu.When Tang Xiu arrived, the flight was delayed, and it was already after eleven o'clock in the evening when he arrived on the mountain. The other guests had already gone to bed, and only the light was left for him in the living room.

It was raining in the mountains and the temperature was low. Wrapped in a long black windbreaker and holding a black oilcloth umbrella, he knocked on the door of the villa.

His follow-up director came to open the door, holding the live broadcast device in his hand.

"Is everyone asleep?" Tang Xiu lowered his voice.

"I'm all asleep, I'll turn it on tomorrow morning."

"That's it." Tang Xiu gently closed the door with his backhand, blocking the sound of the rain.The lighting in the living room was very soft, and the man who entered the door wrapped in black on a rainy night had a gentle expression on his face. The only 100 or so viewers in the live broadcast room were just looking at it out of curiosity, but after seeing the scene of Tang Xiu entering the door, they felt inexplicably Like being poked in a piece.

Tang Xiu put away the umbrella and leaned against the door to control the water.He glanced at the live camera and asked the director in a low voice, "Is it live?"

"Yes, every guest will have a live broadcast when they arrive."

"Is anyone watching?"

The director glanced at the screen, "In the beginning there were more than 100, but now there are more than 500."

Tang Xiu was a little surprised when he heard the words. He knew that he was popular recently, but he couldn't guess the hearts of netizens for this kind of sudden black and red.It is also because of this that before going up the mountain, he and Li Ziping agreed to record a variety show in chapters and chapters, not to be a blockbuster, but to do nothing.Speaking of which, this is also his first official appearance. With the previous incidents, he just wants to prove that he is an ordinary artist.

"Can I take a look?"

"Of course. You have to take care of this live broadcast device yourself afterward. After you interact with the audience for a while, take a rest early, and I'll leave first."

Tang Xiu said thank you, and after the director left, he picked up the equipment and glanced at the camera.

"Good evening," he whispered.

Several "good evening" messages scrolled across the barrage, and the number of viewers rose to more than 1000 in a short while.

Tang Xiu has been popular on the Internet for such a long time, and was fanned or sprayed by some netizens. This is the first time that he directly confronts netizens in this way.He has no experience in live broadcasting, so he can only watch what everyone is saying on the barrage.

I don't know if people are more peaceful at night, but today's barrage is very kind.

[The scar on his face for being brave seems to have disappeared. 】

【Wearing black looks so quiet. 】

[Is it cold in the mountains? 】

Tang Xiu nodded and replied, "It's quite cold."

[Are you nervous about participating in a variety show for the first time? 】

Tang Xiu smiled, "Fortunately, I'm not too nervous."

【You smile very softly. 】

"Really?" Tang Xiu slightly raised his lips again, "It's rare to hear people say that, so I'll smile more from now on."

He took off his windbreaker while answering the barrage. Some viewers asked to take a look at his bedroom, so Tang Xiu took the camera and slowly made a 360-degree turn.

Strictly speaking, his bedroom is not a bedroom. There is an extended platform around the outside of the villa. There is a canopy on the platform on the first floor. Tang Xiu's bed straddles the living room and the platform. The semi-outdoor location is a bit awkward, and There is only one screen to block the living room area, and the privacy is not very good.

Surprised question marks rolled across the bullet screen. Some viewers said that the program group was too poor, and some said that the program group was not poor, but snobbish. Of course, Tang Xiu's rookie couldn't get a good room.Tang Xiu saw it and said: "There are not so many reasons, this room is quite good."

While he was talking, the rain outside suddenly became heavy, and the semi-outdoor platform couldn't close the sliding door because of his bed, and the sound of the crashing rain immediately made what he said a second ago sound extremely fake.

The barrage scrolled across the screen hahaha.

[It's cold and noisy, can you sleep at night? 】

"I'll push the bed in later, and the window will close. It's a great view from here."

[Is the mountain beautiful? 】

"It's beautiful, and the air is very clean, which is rare in this world."

Someone in the barrage joked that he spoke strangely, what is this world, as if he had been to another world.Tang Xiu didn't explain much. He saw that the light was turned off in a bedroom on the second floor that was still on, so he lowered his voice again, "Everyone, go to bed early, and we'll see you tomorrow."

A barrage of "Good night."

Tang Xiu turned off the live broadcast, pushed the bed back to the living room in a few strokes, and went to take a bath with the bathrobe and towel prepared by the program team.

It has been almost a week since the last act of righteousness and bravery, and the popularity on the Internet did not last long, but his recent Weibo comments and private messages have become much more friendly.Li Ziping said that as long as there are no mistakes in this variety show, the inexplicable scandals before will be reversed.

The slightly hot bath water poured down from the neck, and the chill on the way up the mountain was greatly diluted.Tang Xiu stretched his muscles a little, but the calculations in his mind had nothing to do with the show.

He had contacted Song Mian before he came and made insinuations about Zhang Kaixing.

Zhang Kaixing is 34 this year. Although he is not fresh meat, he is in the golden age with his advantages such as first-class acting skills, accumulated fans, calm and demeanor. Athena is 12 years younger than him. She had little fame until she got married last year. It was only after the news of her marriage was made public that she got more exposure in front of the media.

And Song Mian and Zhang Kaixing were brothers with similar tempers when they were filming together two years ago, but when it comes to Zhang Kaixing and Athena, Song Mian can't say one, two, three, only that his elder brother Jinwu Zangjiao is first-rate, even He knew about it all by checking Weibo at the same time as the people who eat melons.

Song Mian also said that although she was not familiar with Athena before, she felt that she was a kind and virtuous girl, and she was very gentle to Zhang Kaixing.

It was almost one o'clock in the morning when Tang Xiu came out of the shower, and the lights in the entire villa were turned off.He checked the lock and began to pack his personal belongings.Half of the trolley case was filled with some clothes, and the other half was filled with a pillow. If someone asked him, he would say that he recognized the pillow, but in fact he hid the soul-collecting flag in the pillowcase.Sleeps on his old buddy at night and won't miss any anomalies.

In fact, he didn't know whether Zhang Kaixing and his wife were related to the uncollected soul, but since they were brought out by Song Mian, he might as well give it a try.

Tang Xiu pulled back the quilt and lay down. There were many stars in the night sky in the mountains, which was completely different from that in the city, as if he had returned to hundreds of years ago.He was silently thinking about the uncollected soul, when he suddenly heard movement on the second floor, he sat up from the bed.

It was Zhang Kaixing who went downstairs. He stood in the living room and glanced at the screen. Tang Xiu didn't hide and greeted him generously.

"senior."

Zhang Kaixing smiled at him, "You and Song Mian are considered to be of the same generation, just call me Brother."

Tang Xiu nodded, "Why are you down? Can't sleep?"

"No." Zhang Kai walked to the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, took a bottle of mineral water, unscrewed it, took a sip, and said, "Your sister-in-law won't let me open the window when she's sleeping. But it's raining too stuffy, so I'll come out to get some fresh air." Go to the bathroom."

The bathroom on the first floor is nominally shared, but in fact it is for Tang Xiu, because the rooms of the other guests have private bathrooms.Seeing Zhang Kaixing go to open the door, Tang Xiu stopped him, "I just took a shower, it's very damp inside, why don't you go back to the bathroom."

Zhang Kaixing waved his hand, "It's okay, I'm not that particular."

As he said that, the person had already flashed into the bathroom.The sound insulation of this house is not good, and soon the sound of a man relieved came from inside, which sounded a bit embarrassing.Tang Xiu walked back to the back of the screen, and when he looked up, he saw that the light in the master bedroom on the second floor was also on.

Tang Xiu glanced at the light coming from the bathroom door, softly opened the sliding window that he had just closed, stepped on the outdoor platform and looked up at the bedroom on the second floor.The bedroom windows were closed and the curtains drawn.

Tang Xiu subconsciously felt that something was wrong. If Athena hadn't woken up, Zhang Kaixing would not have turned on the light in the room.But if Athena is awake now, why not just open the window and get some air?

He walked back into the house and touched the pillow he brought. The Jihun flag was quiet and there was nothing unusual.

There was the sound of flushing from the toilet, and Tang Xiu immediately closed the window.Zhang Kai walked out and smiled at him: "Go to bed early, I have to turn it on early tomorrow morning."

Tang Xiu hummed, "You also go to bed earlier."

Zhang Kai went upstairs, Tang Xiu watched as he pushed open the door of the bedroom along the corridor on the second floor, and after about 2 minutes, the lights in the room were turned off, and the whole villa was once again in darkness.

Tang Xiu lay back on the bed and took out his cell phone from under the pillow.The notification page displayed several messages, which were sent by Jiang Qiao about an hour ago.

——"The kimchi I got from your house last time was good, you can make some after recording the show."

—— "The temperature seems to have dropped in the mountains, so wear more clothes so you don't get sick from the cold."

Tang Xiu slightly hooked the corners of his lips, and replied, "Director Jiang cares about me because he is afraid that if I get sick from the cold, you will have nothing to eat."

At first, I thought that Jiang Qiao must have fallen asleep, but unexpectedly, as soon as the message was sent, "The other party is typing" was displayed at the top of the page. After a few seconds, Jiang Qiao replied, "It seems that the male number one knows the director well enough."

Tang Xiu casually sent back the good night emoji of Little Moon, turned off the phone and closed his eyes to prepare to fall asleep.

However, this night was not peaceful. Tang Xiu was woken up by a strong vomiting sound coming from the second floor at around two o'clock in the morning.He sat up suddenly from the bed, looked up and saw another bedroom on the second floor was lit, and the sound of vomiting came from there.

Immediately afterwards, the lights in Zhang Kaixing's room and several bedrooms on the third floor were turned on one after another, and everyone in the villa was woken up.
