Chapter 82
Chapter 81 Negotiated + poisoning
[1 negotiated]
Zu Qi and others are still on their way back to the crew, and the crew is in a completely different situation.
Who would have thought that the actor Joe Yiyang was just here to make a scene, and he actually cured the anorexia that had plagued him for many years.
All of a sudden, the whole crew became lively.
However, this joyous atmosphere did not last long, until the two mushrooms Xiao Dengzi took to the kitchen were used up a little by Zhou Hai, and Joe Yiyang began to anorexia again.
Zhou Hai pinned all his hopes on those mushrooms, so he found the logistics staff responsible for purchasing non-stop.
The logistics staff found was the girl who greeted Zhou Hai that day. After listening to Zhou Hai’s words, the girl scratched her head with a daunting expression: “I put all the mushrooms sent by friend director Wang in the kitchen. Two whole boxes, it’s impossible to finish eating so soon!”
“Two big boxes?” Zhou Hai shook his head and said, “Impossible. I only saw two in the basket, so I used it.”
The girl said anxiously: “There are really two boxes. I moved them in and counted them. They are placed under the cabinet on the far left.”
“…” Zhou Hai fell silent suddenly, looking at the girl with a strange expression for a long time, and said, “Could you please come and have a look with me?”
The girl was startled by Zhou Hai Mu’s serious expression, and nodded in a daze, then followed Zhou Hai to the kitchen.
It turns out that the girl did not lie. The cabinet she said contained two boxes of freshly picked mushrooms, and because this simple kitchen was usually only used by Zhou Hai and others, the mushrooms brought by the girl had not been passive at all.
Seeing this, Zhou Hai and the girl were dumbfounded at the same time.
“No…” The girl reacted first, turning her head to look suspiciously at Zhou Hai who was pale, “Brother Zhou, all the mushrooms I brought are stored here. Where did you use the mushrooms before?”
Zhou Hai wailed for a long time, but he felt like something stuck in his throat, and he couldn’t make a single tone.
Although the origin of the mushrooms he used before is unknown, he has to admit that those mushrooms did improve Joey Yang’s anorexia.
After coming out of the kitchen, Zhou Haima kept finding the director Wang who was filming. He waited by the side until they had a break before he walked over and called director Wang into the corner.
Zhou Hai thought that the two mushrooms were also purchased by Director Wang, but after asking, Director Wang was confused.
“Are you talking about the mushrooms my friend sent? I’ll leave it to Xiaofei to deal with. If you have any questions, just ask Xiaofei.” Director Wang said truthfully.
“It’s not those mushrooms.” Zhou Hai scratched his hair depressedly, and then described the appearance of the two mushrooms to Director Wang.
Director Wang felt strange as he listened, and his final expression became difficult to describe. He hesitated and said, “Did you read it wrong? How can there be such mushrooms on the market? Even if there are, it may be poisonous mushrooms.”
Zhou Hai thought to himself that although he didn’t know if the two mushrooms were poisonous, he knew very well that Joe Yiyang could only eat those mushrooms.
The communication was fruitless, so Zhou Hai had to ask Director Wang to ask in the crew. Such a question would last a day, but nothing was asked.
In the entire crew, except for the logistics staff who buy ingredients every two or three days, the only people who will enter and leave the simple kitchen are Joe Yiyang’s team. The others will go around even passing by, let alone put things in it. .
From hope to disappointment, Zhou Hai’s whole person was caught in an anxious mood that was difficult to get rid of. Although he could not find the mushrooms, Joe Yiyang’s dinner still had to go on.
That night, Zhou Hai tried his best to cook four special dishes, and brought them to Joe Yiyang enthusiastically.
Joey had just finished the filming work. He was still wearing the gown in the scene, wrapped in a down jacket, and the makeup on his face was not removed. He sat down at the dining table with his chin in depression.
For the dishes Zhou Hai carefully prepared, Joey Yang barely took two bites before putting down his chopsticks.
“You have to continue to work at night, eat something to cushion your stomach, and go to battle on an empty stomach.” Zhou Hai comforted like an old father who broke his heart.
Joe Yiyang looked sad, waved his hand and said, “Sit down and eat, I’m not very hungry yet.”
Zhou Hai sighed, sat down across from Joe Yiyang, picked up the bowls and chopsticks and ate in silence. After waiting for a long time, Zhou Hai suddenly remembered something before his eyes lit up: “That’s right!”
“what’s happenin?”
“Zu Qi, are they coming back today?” Zhou Hai put down the dishes and slapped his thigh with excitement. “What if they put the mushrooms in the kitchen!”
Qiao Yiyang thought for a while and thought it was possible. He just changed his mind to Zhou Hai’s attitude to Zu Qi not long ago, and suddenly became sad again: “We have a holiday with them, I don’t know if they will help.”
Hearing that, Zhou Hai also remembered those unpleasant things. He was ashamed and embarrassed for a while, his face was blue and white, he gritted his teeth and said, “Go and ask first.”
…
After Zuqi and his party arrived at the destination, they did not rush to the crew, but went back to the hotel to rectify and rest.
It took half an hour to organize the suitcase, Zu Qi rubbed his sore arms and stood up, and at a glance he saw three mushrooms on the bedside table.
After being placed in this way for three days, the mushrooms still retain the color they just picked from the space, and each looks plump and firm, and when you approach it, you can smell a faint mushroom-like fragrance.
Zuqi remembered that Xiao Dengzi took two of them and put them in the kitchen, and didn’t know if anyone touched them in the past three days.
Although the auspicious three treasures said that these mushrooms are not poisonous, and their people often pick them and wash them and eat them raw, Zuqi was a little worried at all, so he put on his clothes and went to the set to take a look.
Unexpectedly, when he opened the door, a tall figure was already standing outside.
“Brother Duan?” Zu Qi said in amazement and at the same time felt embarrassed. He kept circling the conversation between Duan Kai and Jin Yu in the bathroom, so he didn’t pay much attention to Duan Kai on the way.
Duan Kai was still wearing dull black clothes and black trousers, his handsome face was as cold as a layer of frost, he nodded slightly to Zu Qi: “Going to eat?”
“Oh, good.” Zu Qi said, drew out the room card from the door, then took a step forward, “Let’s go.”
Duan Kai raised his eyebrows when he saw this, “Are you going out?”
Zu Qi smiled and said, “I was going to go to the crew to see it.”
Duan Kai uttered a cry and stopped talking, so the two of them walked towards the elevator in silence, wondering if it was Zu Qi’s illusion. He always felt that Duan Kai seemed to have something to say to him.
So when I got off the elevator, I didn’t see Xiao Dengzi, and Zu Qi didn’t say anything, but continued to walk beside Duan Kai silently.
They came to the restaurant in the hotel and sat down to order the meal. Duan Kaicai said indifferently: “What you ran into that night, I hope you don’t talk about it.”
Zu Qi was stunned for a moment before subconsciously replied: “Oh, okay.”
But the next second, he suddenly realized a problem-how did Duan Kai know that he and Xue Jue were in the bathroom?
Seeing Zu Qi’s doubts, Duan Kai took the initiative to explain: “Later, I saw you and Xue Jue come out of the bathroom with my own eyes, and you kicked to the toilet halfway through, and I heard the sound.”
Zu Qi: “…”
In other words…
When Duan Kai pressed Jin Yu on the door to do it, he actually knew there was someone in the cubicle, but he didn’t know who was inside…
Zu Qi did not understand the past entanglement between Duan Kai and Jin Yu, but in terms of Duan Kai’s attitude towards Jin Yu that night, he felt that Duan Kai acted like a scumbag.
And at this time, he heard Duan Kaiyun uttering such a light breeze again, and his feeling of rejection of Duan Kai suddenly became particularly strong in his heart.
However, this matter has nothing to do with Zuqi, and as an outsider, he is not qualified to express any thoughts and position.
Zu Qi paused, then raised his lips and smiled: “Don’t worry, we haven’t seen anything, and won’t talk nonsense outside.”
Duan Kai nodded: “Thank you.”
After a moment of silence, Zu Qi couldn’t hold back it after all, and said in a joking tone, “Have you ever thought, what if the people in the compartment are not me and Xue Jue? If it’s someone else, maybe they will turn around and say it. .”
After speaking, Duan Kai was silent.
Zu Qi thought Duan Kai would answer his words, so he waited silently.
I didn’t know that Duan Kai never mentioned this topic again when they had finished eating, took the elevator upstairs, and parted ways in the corridor.
Upon seeing this, Zu Qi couldn’t say anything, and after bidding farewell to Duan Kai, he returned to his room.
It wasn’t until he saw the three mushrooms still on the bedside that Zu Qi suddenly remembered his plan to go to the crew, but seeing that it was getting late outside, he had to give up his thoughts and took out the small bag from the top of the suitcase. Emerald in a cloth bag.
Zuqi held the emerald in his hand, only to feel that the scene in front of him flashed, and in the blink of an eye he had already arrived in the space.
There is no distinction between day and night in the space. Every time Zu Qi comes in, the sights he sees are blue sky and white clouds and the endless prairie.
But the temperature here is much lower than in reality. Fortunately, Zu Qi had been prepared long ago. The three layers inside and the outside wrapped herself into a zongzi. Apart from the trouble of walking, it was very warm.
He found the vegetable seeds and saplings that he had put in the morning in the marked bushes, and then walked through the forest to the small hills where the lucky three treasures lived.
This time Zu Qi approached them for two purposes.
One is to give them vegetable seeds and saplings and let them try to plant them on this land. The second is to try to bring the people here to reality, provided that Jixiang Sambo’s parents persuade others to agree to trade with him.
With an uneasy mood, Zu Qi found out the door of the auspicious three treasures.
Now that the space has ushered in a severe winter, the chilly wind blew on Zu Qi’s face one after another. Even if Zu Qi caught the mask and hat, the exposed place still felt like a needle stick.
Xu is too cold outside, and Zu Qi hasn’t seen a single figure along the way.
He knocked twice on the wooden door that didn’t look very strong. After a short time, the door was opened. The big treasure, who was also wrapped round like a ball, stood in front of the door and raised his head to look at Zuqi. The sound of milk yelled to elder brother.
After that, Erbao and Sanbao didn’t know where they came out. They hugged Zuqi’s two legs on the left and the right, and kept calling Zuqi’s brother in their immature and pleasant voice.
Zu Qi’s heart melted by the shouts of the three extremely cute children in front of him, with a fatherly smile on his face, and he answered again and again.
Until a cold wind that almost blew into the bones hit from behind, Zu Qi, who just stood in front of the door, shivered suddenly, and hurriedly pushed the auspicious three treasures into the house.
The parents of Jixiang Sanbao made furniture in the back room. They brought a large piece of wood of suitable color and shape from the outside, and they were using stones to smooth the surface.
Yu Guangzhong saw Zu Qi approaching with three calf candies. The parents of Jixiang Sambo immediately put down the things in their hands. After the translation by Jixiang Sambo, Zu Qi was surprised to learn that they had agreed to his proposal.
But they have a requirement, that is, they can terminate the previous transaction with Zu Qi at any time.
Zu Qi readily agreed.
[2 Poisoning]
The parents of the auspicious three treasures wanted to find all the tribesmen, but Zu Qi stopped them.
After obtaining their consent, Zu Qi took the auspicious three treasures and their parents through the dense forest, and then came to his fixed position in and out of the space.
After talking, Zuqi learned that the mother of the auspicious three treasures was named Atao and his father was named Ashu, both of which were previously translated by Akuan.
Although they did not understand what Zuqi said, they were very sensitive to their own names.
Zuqi asked Atao and Ashu to line up with the three children in sequence, so he took out the emerald and stood in front of them, then closed his eyes…
When he opened his eyes again, Zu Qi had already returned to reality, but it was a pity that he came back alone, and there was no one from the Auspicious Three Treasures around him.
Zu Qi was stunned, and quickly squeezed the emerald, closed his eyes and re-entered the space. When he opened his eyes, he saw the auspicious three treasures with a bewildered look and Atao and Ashu who were not in the state at all.
Five pairs of curious eyes stared at Zu Qi, as if he hadn’t recovered from the state of Zu Qi disappearing and appearing again and again.
Zu Qi: “…”
After thinking for a while, he asked Dabao, “Did you close your eyes just now?”
Dabao shook his round little head, and confessed honestly with a little milky voice that still had a northeast tone: “Nothing.”
“You tell your mom and dad, let them close their eyes with me later.” Zu Qi said, squatting down and telling Erbao and Sanbao, “If you don’t close your eyes, you may not be able to be with me. We passed by together.”
The two children closed their eyes quickly in fright, and at the same time held their parents tightly with both hands.
After Dabao communicated with Atao and Ashu, Zu Qi tried again with the emerald, but it still didn’t work, and he was still the only one who could return to the real world.
Zu Qi was not discouraged and tried several times in a row, all of which ended in failure.
Even A Tao and A Shu, who were quite expecting at first, gradually showed disappointed expressions on their faces, but they did not complain at all, but continued to try according to Zu Qi’s method.
In the end, Zu Qi was also desperate.
He intends to abandon this plan, and think of a better way to move the apples out of the space, but it seems that the only way is for him to go in and out of the space personally, and move things out one by one…
Just thinking of this, Zu Qi felt exhausted. When he looked up, A Tao and A Shu were both sighing. Zu Qi had to cheer up and pat A Shu on the shoulder.
“It’s okay, let’s think of a new way.” Zu Qi finished speaking, just about to call Dabao to translate his words.
As a result, the rest of the words hadn’t had time to say from his mouth. Zu Qi had a momentary confusion before his eyes. When he came back to his senses, he was surprised to find that he had returned to the hotel room.
Come out with him, there are also a family of five in Jixiang Sanbao.
It seemed that they had never experienced such a miraculous thing before, and the two adults and three children froze on the spot.
Zuqi called Atao and Ashu several times without receiving a response. They couldn’t help laughing or crying, so he poured five cups of hot water and put them on the coffee table in front of them. After waiting for a while, he saw the five in a petrified state. The individual slowly reacted from the shock.
“Drink water.” Zu Qi sat comfortably on the sofa and pointed to the five cups of hot water on the coffee table.
There is no need for Dabao to translate this time. Atao and Ashu consciously picked up the water glasses. Even though they had been mentally prepared for a long time, they were still terrified by the status quo. They only drank the whole cup of hot water. Calm down.
Zu Qi didn’t speak, he was waiting patiently.
A Tao and A Shu used their language to communicate for about half an hour, then called out the three lucky three treasures happily running around in the room, and asked them to act as interpreters to inquire about the specific content of Zuqi’s transaction.
In fact, Zu Qi had no confidence in his heart. Before crossing, he was a programmer who could only type code. After crossing into the world of fiction, whether it was acting or selling things, it was the big girl who went to the sedan chair.
His current plan is to buy the farm from Tang Yukuan, and then persuade the people on the Jixiang Sanbao side. As for what to do later, he will wait until the farm is sold.
Zu Qi rationalized his thoughts and only confessed that A Tao and A Shu led their tribe to try to plant the vegetable seeds and saplings he brought with him. If the planting is successful, he will provide more kinds of seed saplings.
A Tao and A Shu chicks nodded as if they were pecking at the rice. Obviously they all liked Zu Qi’s proposal.
After all, the animals and plants in the space are gradually disappearing with the passage of time. If all of them sit and wait to die, people will be reduced to starvation.
The deal Zuqi proposed was also a good time for them to change their destiny.
After the talk, Zuqi asked Atao and Ashu to wait for news from him at any time, and then prepared to send them back.
At this moment, a knock on the door suddenly sounded.
A Tao and A Shu, who had just arrived in the new world, were like frightened birds. Both shivered suddenly, and quickly put the three children in their arms, and looked at Zu Qi with wide-open eyes.
Originally they were relatively small, but now they were huddled in a pile and looked terrified like cats leaning against each other asking for a sense of security. Zu Qi was sorry and distressed.
Zuqi asked Dabao to take them to the bedroom to rest for a while. After finishing his emotions, he paced to the door of the room and looked out through the cat’s eyes on the door.
It turned out to be Zhou Hai? !
Zu Qi recalled Zhou Hai’s various dissatisfaction with him during this period of time, and couldn’t help but frown, wondering if Zhou Hai could not sleep at night and still came to find his fault?
Whether it is or not, Zu Qi did not welcome Zhou Hai’s arrival very much.
However, considering that Joe Yiyang who treated him well, even though Zu Qi was unwilling, he slowly opened the door and met Zhou Hai’s smiling face.
Zu Qi: “…”
Did Zhou Hai take the wrong medicine today?
At this moment, Zu Qi even wondered if Zhou Hai was possessed by other creatures, otherwise, with his original temperament, he probably wouldn’t have such a brilliant smile at Zu Qi until he died.
Quickly conquering the surprise in his eyes, Zu Qi smirked politely: “Brother Zhou, it’s so late, do you have anything important to me?”
The implication is to leave as soon as there is nothing important, don’t disturb me to rest.
It’s a pity to look at Zhou Hai’s enthusiastic appearance, as if he couldn’t hear what Zu Qi was saying. Rarely, he rubbed his hands nervously, and said with difficulty: “Xiao Zu, I do have a very important thing to think about here. Communicate with you, I don’t know if you have time…”
“Sorry, Brother Zhou.” Zu Qi said with an embarrassed expression, “I am also dealing with a very important matter.”
Hearing this, Zhou Hai was stunned for a moment, subconsciously thinking that Zu Qi was tactfully rejecting him. For a while, his face turned pale, standing in place like a child who couldn’t find a direction, completely lost his usual shrewd and mean appearance.
Although Zu Qi didn’t like Zhou Hai very much, but seeing him like this, he still felt unbearable, so he stepped back and said, “If you have anything to do with me, can you tell me directly here?”
Zhou Hai’s complexion instantly changed from gray to red. He excitedly said several times thank you, before turning to the main topic: “I went to find Xiao Dengzi just now, and he said that he took two mushrooms from you. I know it would be presumptuous to find this, but I really have no other way…”
Hearing the word “mushroom”, Zu Qi’s heart beat fiercely.
“Did you eat those mushrooms?” Zu Qi’s voice immediately became tense.
Zhou Hai knew that he was wrong, and bowed his head in shame: “Sorry, I didn’t know that the mushrooms belonged to you. I thought it was sent by Dao Wang’s friend, so I just used it without your consent…”
“No.” Zu Qi interrupted Zhou Hai anxiously, “After you eat those mushrooms, are you okay?”
After that, even Zu Qi thought it was funny. If it was really okay, would Zhou Hai find him here in person?
Sure enough, Zhou Hai solemnly nodded his head in the next second: “Something is going on.”
“…” At this moment, it was Zu Qi’s turn to become so nervous that his face turned pale, he froze for a long time, and said with difficulty, “What happened to Joey Yang?”
Zhou Hai continued to nod his head: “Yes.”
Thinking of the 700 million actor Joe Yiyang’s worth, Zu Qi’s legs fell soft and almost fell to the ground. He almost tremblingly asked, “Where is Joe Yiyang? Is it in the hospital?”
“I didn’t go to the hospital, the doctor couldn’t treat him.”
Before Zhou Hai’s words fell, Zu Qi helped the door frame to soften on the spot. Fortunately, Zhou Hai reached out and grabbed his arm in time, which made Zu Qi reluctantly stand up on his legs.
At this moment, Qiao Yiyang’s assistant hurried over and shouted in surprise: “Ge Zhou, Brother Zhou, how are you?! Brother Qiao is going to die soon!”
When Zu Qi heard the assistant’s words, his mind went blank in an instant, and a chill immersed in the bone marrow rose from the soles of his feet and spread to his limbs in a thunderous manner.
It’s over.
Zu Qi thought to himself, it was really over.
He shouldn’t give the mushrooms to Xiao Dengzi without really knowing whether they can be eaten. Although the members of the auspicious three treasures often eat that kind of mushrooms, their physiques are different.
After all, in reality, almost no one can climb freely on such tall trees.
Zu Qi was overwhelmed by despair on the spot, and even thought of the scene where he was captured by the police for poisoning Joey Yang.
When he is squatting in the detention center, what should Xue Jue and Xue Wan do?
Xue Wanwan is still so young…
Xue Jue also just confirmed a relationship with him…
Zu Qi had been thinking about life decades later, and was shaken by Zhou Hai in a panic for a long time before struggling out of the chaos.
“Don’t froze, get some mushrooms out!” Zhou Hai said with a crying face, almost begging.
Zuqi thought that Zhou Hai was going to collect the evidence and hand it over to the police. He went back to the room in despair, and carefully told A Tao and A Shu to take the child to live in the bedroom and wait. He would come back soon and take the rest. Three mushrooms go out.
Zhou Hai took the mushrooms with surprise: “That’s it! It’s them! I will never admit it wrong.”
The assistant next to him also said in a crying voice: “Great, we finally found them!”
Only Zu Qi’s face was earthy. Here, Zhou Hai and his assistant’s words meant that they had finally found the culprit of poisoned mushrooms.
Zu Qi followed Zhou Hai and his assistant to Joe Yiyang’s room, and when he walked in, he saw Joe Yiyang who was lying on the bed unconscious, and a few people with heavy expressions beside him.
“Mr. Qiao!” Zu Qi walked over and found that Joe Yiyang had closed his eyes and was motionless. He didn’t know if he was asleep or poisoned and unconscious.
Zu Qi took a deep breath, and a sudden anger rose from the bottom of his heart. He didn’t understand what Zhou Hai meant. In order to preserve the evidence of poisoning, even Joe Yiyang’s comfort was ignored?
“Zhou Hai!” Zu Qi yelled, turning his head and said, “Qiao Yiyang has become like this, you still don’t send him to the hospital…”
Halfway through, Zu Qi’s angry voice stopped abruptly. He looked at the busy people in front of him in disbelief, and then remained silent for a long time before asking hardly, “What are you…what are you doing?”
Zhou Hai stood at the table with an induction cooker and a small wok in front of him. Inside were the shredded pork and mushrooms that the assistant had just washed and chopped. He hummed and fried the vegetables while answering Zuqi: “I’m cooking. , You sit down for a while, we’ll have dinner later.”
Zu Qi: “???”
Damn it.
