Hong Kong variety show: I Am a Tycoon

Chen Jiajun said with a sneer, "That's right. It was because the tomb was damaged that the things meant to appease Chu Renmei fell off her body, which led to what happened to you!"

"To appease the people of Chu with beautiful things?" Xiaoming grasped the key to the matter.

Chen Jiajun nodded: "Back then, Chu Renmei was filled with resentment and killed 66 people in Huangshan Village. She originally wanted to continue her killing spree, but she saved the other residents and let them escape!"

"Is it Li Qiang? The child Chu Renmei adopted?" Mr. Mao asked in surprise.

Chen Jiajun looked at Mr. Mao with some surprise, nodded and said, "You reacted quickly. That's right, it's Li Qiang. Back then, Chu Renmei gave Li Qiang a safety bracelet and promised him a condition."

"Li Qiang couldn't bear to see innocent people being killed by Chu Renmei, so he used the Peace Bracelet to negotiate a condition with Chu Renmei: he would never again kill innocent people indiscriminately."

Chen Jiajun glanced at the excavated pool and said calmly, "I reckon that when the workers dug up Chu Renmei's tomb, her body fell into the pool, and the safety bracelet on her wrist probably fell off at that time!"

"So I need one of you to go and retrieve the peace bracelet from the pool and hand it to me."

Upon hearing Chen Jiajun's words, both of them hesitated.

After all, the Chu people were terrifyingly beautiful, and they were still somewhat apprehensive.

However, Xiaoming was really going all out for his girlfriend, and directly said, "Okay, Mr. Chen, I'll go down!"

Chen Jiajun nodded and said, "Come up immediately after you find the safety bracelet. Don't do anything unnecessary, or I won't be able to save you!"

Xiao Ming nodded, then took off his clothes and plunged headfirst into the pool.

Mr. Mao said to Chen Jiajun with some concern, "Mr. Chen, will something bad happen?"

Chen Jiajun said calmly, "How would I know!"

"Huh?" Mr. Mao immediately became angry: "Then why did you let Xiaoming go down?"

Chen Jiajun spread his hands and said, "If you're going to save people, who will go down if you don't? You don't think you can resolve this kind of thing without having to bear any consequences, do you?"

These words left Mr. Mao speechless.

He could only stare nervously at the pool, waiting for Xiaoming to come up.

Just then, Mr. Mao suddenly saw a clump of black hair floating on the water.

Then he saw a woman with long hair, wearing a blue theatrical robe, slowly rise from the water.

Upon seeing this, Mr. Mao was startled and exclaimed, "Mr. Chen... Mr. Chen! Chu Renmei!"

Chen Jiajun said calmly, "I saw it, but don't worry, he can't hurt people directly!"

Chen Jiajun could tell at a glance that the "Chu Renmei" in front of him was just a thing formed from resentment, and it had no power to harm them at all. Its true form was likely in another dimension, just as Chen Jiajun had guessed.

Sure enough, when Mr. Mao looked again, he found that Chu Renmei had disappeared.

Xiao Ming emerged from the water with a look of surprise, holding up a faded bracelet and saying with a smile, "Mr. Chen, Teacher Mao, look, I found it!"

Mr. Mao said anxiously, "Hurry up and come up, hurry up!"

Chen Jiajun couldn't wait any longer. He leaped into the water and pulled Xiaoming out of the water with one hand.

Then he stepped on a tree trunk on the opposite bank twice for leverage and returned to the shore.

Chen Jiajun's haste was certainly not to show off his skills in front of the two.

Rather, he knew that if he drank the water from this pool, he would be cursed by Chu Renmei.

The reason they tricked Xiaoming into jumping down was so that they could get the peace bracelet without being tainted by the curses.

He was also afraid that Chu Renmei would control Xiaoming and sink him to the bottom of the pool immediately if he tried to save him.

Fortunately, I have now received the peace bracelet.

Xiao Ming looked at Chen Jiajun with admiration and said, "Mr. Chen, you are amazing!"

Chen Jiajun said calmly, "It's just a small trick. You guys step aside, I'll handle this!"

Upon hearing Chen Jiajun's words, the two immediately stepped back a few paces.

Holding the bracelet, Chen Jiajun could feel a comforting power.

Moreover, according to the plot, this thing is like a key, a key to enter the alternate dimension where Chu Renmei's corpse is located.

So Chen Jiajun took a deep breath, grabbed the bracelet, and jumped directly into the pool.

As soon as Chen Jiajun touched the water, he felt a powerful attraction pulling him back.

Chen Jiajun did not resist, and let the attraction pull him down into the pool.

Once Chen Jiajun's body was completely submerged in the pool, that chilling, bone-deep feeling returned.

Then Chen Jiajun found himself in a mass grave.

There were graves all around, with the names and birth dates of the deceased inscribed on them.

Chen Jiajun glanced at the tombs casually; most of the tomb owners had died more than a hundred years ago.

"Disrupting time and space, how interesting!" Chen Jiajun chuckled, realizing he hadn't guessed wrong.

After taking a few steps, Chen Jiajun saw a strange scene.

It was an open grave, and a corpse lay beside it.

The body's face was obscured by a straw mat, and a pair of pale, stiff hands, raised high in a clenching motion, were covered by a straw mat.

The tombstone clearly bears the name of Chu Renmei.

"Tsk tsk, this really is your Ghost Realm!" Chen Jiajun sneered, looking at the bizarre scene before him.

However, Chen Jiajun ignored him and instead began to invoke the system on his own.

This time, the system indeed responded, much to Chen Jiajun's delight.

The first thing Chen Jiajun did was to take out all his equipment from the system.

Having gained the ability to protect himself, Chen Jiajun breathed a long sigh of relief and tried to contact his subordinates.

……

In another time and space, in Hong Kong, at the Guojun Group building.

Inside Chen Jiajun's office.

Old Prison and Old Evil have taken over Chen Jiajun's position and have begun to investigate the group.

To put it simply, they summoned each of the group's top executives to their office, and then Old Prison asked them a few questions.

They didn't know until they investigated, and what they found really gave Old Yu and Old E a fright.

There are countless spies within the Guojun Group, representing various factions.

Even CIA and MI6 agents infiltrated the area.

Logically speaking, given their boss's personality, he would have eliminated these people long ago. Why would they remain now?
"What should we do? Kill him or not?" Old Yu was undecided, afraid of ruining Chen Jiajun's plans.

It's not something an ordinary person can guess what their leader is thinking.

After a moment of silence, Old Prison said, "No rush. Since these people haven't made any rash moves, let's not eliminate them. Let's wait for the boss to return before reporting! News has also come from Sila that only Wei Li and Su Xingbo's assistants are planning to cause trouble. They themselves don't have any ulterior motives!"

"However, the most troublesome thing is the matter with the Lu family! Unfortunately, the eldest brother is not here at this time."

"Should we tell Sister-in-law Lu Yongyu?" the old man asked, frowning.

Old Yu sighed and said, "I'm thinking about that too!"

Just as the two were talking, they suddenly shuddered and then revealed expressions of ecstasy.

Because I heard Chen Jiajun's voice!
"Boss, where are you right now?" Old Prison immediately asked.

Chen Jiajun said helplessly, "I can't say for sure, it seems we've been pulled into another dimension!"

"Another dimension?" Old Prison asked in surprise, "How did you do that?"

Chen Jiajun shook his head: "I don't know either, and this is only a temporary communication system. I guess we won't be able to contact you after we leave this place! But I've found a way back, and I'll be back in a while! Has anything happened in Hong Kong?"

Old Yu could only bite the bullet and say, "It's just a few minor issues, we'll resolve them quickly. But... there's something about the Lu family!"

"Why are some of the Lu family brothers acting so restless?" Chen Jiajun immediately guessed what it was.

Old Prison nodded and said, "We don't know what to do!"

The Lu brothers, including Lu Jinqiang, are not easy to deal with.

Moreover, they were all greedy by nature, and with Chen Jiajun suppressing them, they naturally dared not have any reckless thoughts.

But now rumors are flying that Chen Jiajun has disappeared. Coupled with the instigation of certain forces, a few guys are starting to get restless.

Chen Jiajun was silent for a moment, then said to Old Prisoner, "What did they do?"

"The intelligence organization has reported that someone is instigating the split of the Lu Guo Group!" Old Prison replied.
Today, Luk Kwok Group has become one of the top real estate developers in Hong Kong.

It's no longer the family business it was when Lu Hantao was in charge. Although each member of the Lu family owns shares, they generally don't participate in management.

Now that they've jumped out, saying that no one was pushing for it is utter nonsense.

Chen Jiajun said coldly, "Tell Lu Yongyu about this and tell her to stall for time until I get back!"

"Yes, I understand!" Old Prison nodded. "But boss, there are many spies within the Guojun Group. Do we need to..."

"Since they haven't made any rash moves, keep them around for surveillance!" Chen Jiajun said in a chilling tone. "If they dare to make any sudden moves... kill them!"

"understood!"

Chen Jiajun glanced at Chu Renmei, who had already gotten up from the ground, and then said to Lao Yu, "Alright, if there's nothing else, I have some things to take care of here!"

"Yes, boss!" Old Prison and Old E exchanged a glance and breathed a sigh of relief.

After cutting off the communication, Chen Jiajun focused on dealing with Chu Renmei in front of him.

Chu Renmei's current state is terrifying. Even though Chen Jiajun has released the effects of the [Sunfire Armor], he still cannot block the bone-chilling cold.

Clearly, Chu Renmei's condition was even more formidable than he had imagined.

Seeing Chen Jiajun's hostile attitude, Chu Renmei suddenly made a move.

She wasn't particularly fast, and her limbs were somewhat stiff, but she vanished from Chen Jiajun's sight in an instant, as if a disc had been stuck in mid-air.

Startled, Chen Jiajun immediately drew his Startick Blade and swung it around behind him.

The blade, imbued with magical lightning, is far more powerful than the [Sunfire Armor].

But Chu Renmei once again disappeared behind Chen Jiajun in that "jammed" state.

Then it appeared in front of him quite abruptly.

The two were pressed together, almost face to face.

At this moment, Chu Renmei's eyes no longer had eyes; instead, they looked like two black holes.

Chen Jiajun felt drawn in after just one glance.

But at that moment, the Ascension Amulet in his hand emitted a golden light.

Chu Renmei was directly blasted away by the light and let out a terrifying howl.

"Damn it, we almost capsized in the gutter!" Chen Jiajun couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. The power of childhood trauma was indeed not to be underestimated.

Chen Jiajun had almost no chance to retaliate after that series of actions.

If it weren't for the abundance of magical artifacts he possessed, he would definitely have fallen into Chu Renmei's hands.

However, this also angered Chen Jiajun. After so many years of smooth sailing, he had never suffered such a big loss.

He immediately grabbed a sharp blade and swung it at Chu Renmei again.

This time, Chu Renmei's bizarre "jamming" movement didn't work again. The electric blade lashed out at her blue opera robe, burning a piece of it instantly!
This seemed to anger Chu Renmei, who then stretched out his pale hands.

Then his hands suddenly stretched out and grabbed directly at Chen Jiajun's neck.

Although this method was bizarre, Chen Jiajun had already prepared for it.

With a slight tremor, the electric blade in his hand surged forth.

Killing a vengeful ghost like Chu Renmei, who is filled with resentment, would certainly be extremely difficult.

Chen Jiajun estimated that only a mage like Lin Fengqiao at his peak could possibly deal with Chu Renmei.

As for him? Without the right means, even if Chu Renmei were to be scattered, she would probably just keep regenerating.

After all, Chen Jiajun couldn't even break through Chu Renmei's ghost realm, let alone deal with such a strange phenomenon directly.

Therefore, what he had to do was put that peace bracelet on Chu Renmei and seal her away.

Chu Renmei's hands gripped Chen Jiajun's neck tightly, and her chilling aura instantly seeped into Chen Jiajun's body.

This level of ghostly energy was so strong that even the [Sunfire Armor] on his body couldn't withstand it.

However, Chen Jiajun's electric blade also restrained Chu Renmei, preventing her from escaping easily.

This situation, where both sides are now, is exactly what Chen Jiajun wanted.

He immediately took out the peace bracelet that Xiaoming had fished out of the pool from his pocket and put it on Chu Renmei's hand.

After the bracelet was put on Chu Renmei's wrist, Chu Renmei seemed to freeze up completely.

The chilling ghostly aura was completely withdrawn into his body.

Chen Jiajun was able to escape and coughed twice.

The ghostly aura he had just experienced made him feel extremely uncomfortable, so he immediately took out two medicine bottles and gulped down two mouthfuls.

To Chen Jiajun's surprise, the life potion had no effect on the invasion of this ghostly energy.

He could only take out one Senzu Bean and eat it, and his condition improved considerably instantly.

When I went to check on Chu Renmei, she had already returned to the side of the grave, her whole body covered with a straw mat, and her pale hands were down. It seemed that the peace bracelet had worked.

Chen Jiajun breathed a long sigh of relief, and then began looking for a way out.

He was then surprised to find that the ghost realm created by Chu Renmei was rapidly collapsing.

Chen Jiajun's connection with the system also became unstable.

After quickly obtaining a few life-saving items from the system, Chen Jiajun immediately ran towards the edge.

After escaping Chu Renmei's ghostly realm, Chen Jiajun found himself at the bottom of a pool.

He immediately spread his arms and swam toward the surface of the water.

A moment later, they finally saw a clear sky and Mr. Mao, who was terrified, on the shore.

After being dragged ashore by the two men, Chen Jiajun seemed to have lost all his strength.

"Mr. Chen, how are you?" Xiao Ming asked hurriedly.

Chen Jiajun waved his hand and said, "I'm fine, I'm just exhausted!"

After resting for a while, Chen Jiajun finally sat up from the ground.

Xiao Ming hesitated for a long time before saying to Chen Jiajun, "Mr. Chen, that Chu Renmei..."

"I've already sealed Chu Renmei with the Peace Bracelet!" Chen Jiajun sighed and said, "As long as the bracelet doesn't leave her body again, you'll be fine!"

"Huh? You...you didn't perform a ritual to help Chu Renmei pass on to the afterlife?" Xiao Ming asked in surprise.

Chen Jiajun said irritably, "What are you dreaming about? I don't have the ability to destroy a ghost of this level. You should be grateful that you can seal her away!"

Hearing Chen Jiajun's words, the two of them felt a little embarrassed.

After all, when Chen Jiajun went down and came back up, he looked like he had lost half his life.

He's still pale, and there are two claw marks on his neck!

Chen Jiajun himself didn't know whether Chu Renmei's curse had been broken or not, but ultimately it was none of his business.

He never intended to help these reckless young people; he only called the two of them over to confirm his suspicions.

Now that Chen Jiajun has confirmed his suspicions, what happens next is no longer his concern.

After all, he was just a passerby in this world.

Being able to temporarily seal Chu Renmei away from harming people is already doing right by everyone.

Looking at himself, soaking wet, Chen Jiajun said to the two of them decisively, "Alright, I've done what I needed to do. Farewell!"

After saying that, Chen Jiajun turned around and prepared to leave.

But at this moment, Mr. Mao stopped Chen Jiajun: "Mr. Chen, I have something I want to ask you!"

"Speak!" Chen Jiajun was already showing signs of impatience.

Mr. Mao was also a perceptive person, so he didn't beat around the bush and asked Chen Jiajun directly, "Mr. Chen, do you accept apprentices?"

Chen Jiajun looked at Mr. Mao with a half-smile and said, "You want to learn my methods?"

Mr. Mao nodded and said, "Please consider it. I am very sincere!"

Chen Jiajun shook his head and said, "You can't learn my skills!"

Chen Jiajun relies on his magical artifacts; he doesn't know any real skills.

However, this world does have many truly skilled individuals, such as the sorcerers, magicians, and Southeast Asian occultists he encountered before. (End of Chapter)
