Chapter 1108 This Time It Became a Ghost

At five in the morning, Zhao Wuji squatted in a cubicle in the public toilet of the film and television city, using yellow paper and cinnabar bought wholesale from the fortune-telling stall to draw crookedly the "peach blossom talisman".

Each ticket costs 3 yuan, and he plans to sell it for 299 yuan - target customers: the supporting characters in "Ex-Files" who are troubled by their exes.

“Anyway, these people in the movie will get back together in the end. I’m just… speeding up their psychological preparation.” He muttered, stuffing the drawn talisman into a brocade bag he bought wholesale from Yiwu Small Commodity Market, and then affixing a handwritten note on it that read “Given by Yue Lao, kill the ex and invite the true love.”

The watch vibrated, but no warning popped up.

Sure enough, the system turns a blind eye to "psychological suggestion" operations.

He strolled to the outskirts of the crew with 50 tips and quickly locked on his first target: the assistant of the third female lead, Lin Na.

In the movie, this character was in a trance because of the harassment from her ex-boyfriend and almost lost an important prop.

"Miss," Zhao Wuji approached stealthily, "Your forehead is dark, have you been bullied recently?"

The assistant took a step back cautiously: "Who are you?"

“Chief consultant of Hengdian Metaphysics Research Institute,” he showed his fake work ID, “specializing in resolving emotional karmic obstacles.”

The assistant was skeptical, but when Zhao Wuji accurately said, "You were blocked by your ex at Starbucks last Wednesday," her eyes widened instantly: "How did you know?!"

Hooked.

Ten minutes later, 598 yuan (buy one get one free) was deposited into Zhao Wuji's Alipay account, and the assistant happily stuffed the treasure bag into the inner layer of his underwear.

The electronic watch finally popped up a prompt:
[Non-film remuneration income + 598 yuan]

[Current account balance: 1524.8 yuan]

[Warning: Cumulative arbitrage exceeding 5000 yuan will trigger an audit procedure]

Zhao Wuji whistled.

This is just the beginning.

Three days later, Zhao Wuji's business had expanded to:

Basic Peach Blossom Charm (299 yuan, comes with a USB flash drive recording the "Ex-boyfriend Rejection Spell")
Premium version of the reunion ceremony (888 yuan, including birth date written in pigeon blood and diamond patch)
VVIP emotional consultation (charged by the hour, mainly by repeating movie lines)

The customer base was also upgraded from extras to small supporting roles with lines. Even a stagehand secretly introduced him to Lao Wang from the lighting group. After buying the "heart-locking chain", the 40-year-old bachelor bravely confessed his love to the makeup artist.

"Master!" Lao Wang came to give me a banner with red eyes the next day, "She said she is willing to try with me!"

Zhao Wuji smiled mysteriously on the surface, but he was complaining crazily in his heart: The makeup artists in the movies would have agreed to this!
The net profit on that day exceeded 8000 yuan, and the account balance soared to 11234.5 yuan.

However, when I returned to my rental house after work, my electronic watch suddenly flashed red:
【Abnormal economic fluctuations detected! 】

[The host has a statistical impact on the supporting cast! ]

[Initiate countermeasures——]

The next second, Zhao Wuji slipped and the whole package of "inventory" fell into the stinky ditch on the side of the road.

"Fuck!" He rushed over to rescue her, but saw a new cold message on his electronic watch:
[Price compensation mechanism activated]

[From now on: the wholesale price of yellow paper has increased to 20 yuan per sheet]

[Cinnabar is included in the list of prohibited items in the film and television city]

On the morning of the fourth day, Zhao Wuji was squatting in front of the fortune-telling stall to bargain when he was suddenly surrounded by a group of security guards. "It's him!" The attendant who had bought the talisman pointed at Zhao Wuji and shouted, "He's spreading feudal superstition!"

The bald boss was hiding behind the security guard and laughing - apparently the bastard reported him.

When being escorted to the film and television city management office, Zhao Wuji discovered a familiar figure sitting on the chair: Lao Liu.

“You also sell talismans?” Zhao Wuji was shocked.

"I was selling consecrated bracelets," Lao Liu said with a sad face, "the cost was 80 cents but I sold them for 200 yuan. I was arrested right after I opened the shop."

The administrator slapped a stack of talismans on the table: "Young people nowadays can't innovate in cheating people!" He pulled out a handwritten talisman from Zhao Wuji, "'Ji Ji Ru Lv Ling' was written wrongly with three characters!"

Final penalty result:
Confiscate illegal gains (8000 yuan will be forcibly deducted from the account)
It is forbidden to engage in "metaphysical related activities" in the film and television city

Clean the toilet for a week

When Zhao Wuji walked into the men's restroom with a mop in hand, a mocking reminder popped up on his electronic watch:

[Current account: 3234.5 yuan]

[Special reminder: The host's 200 yuan pay for today has been used to pay the fine]

[New rules unlocked: Arbitrage behavior will trigger NPC IQ improvement patch]

Old Liu was in the next cubicle vomiting and cursing: "Which grandson poisoned the lunch box..."

Zhao Wuji silently moved two steps away.

On the fifth day of cleaning the toilet, a turning point occurred.

A woman wearing sunglasses sneaked into the toilet. After confirming that no one was around, she suddenly grabbed Zhao Wuji's hand and said, "Master! Save me!"

Zhao Wuji almost smashed the mop on her face - until she took off her sunglasses, revealing Xia Lu's face.

"Meng Yun's ex-girlfriend came to see him," Xia Lu's eyes were red, "I heard that you have a talisman..."

Zhao Wuji's blood solidified instantly.

The main character takes the initiative to contact!

The electronic watch vibrated wildly, and the red light almost illuminated the entire toilet:

[Highest level alert! ]

[The main character's behavior deviation has been detected! ]

【Execute emergency intervention——】

The next second, Xia Lu suddenly blinked and looked around in confusion: "Why am I here?" Then she walked out without looking back.

Zhao Wuji slumped down on the wet floor tiles, and the electronic watch popped up the latest verdict:
[Penalty: 72 hours of "zero sense of existence"]

[Note: All non-mainline characters will not be able to sense the host]

When he wanted to borrow a lighter from Lao Liu, he found that the other party passed directly through his body.

"It's over," Zhao Wuji said with a wry smile as he looked at the only 3234.5 yuan left in his account. "This is really a disaster."
