This Female Celebrity Comes from the Cultivation World

Chapter 79: The Cat Returns the Favor



Chapter 79

After solving the issue of a talking rat, Jiyu Ancient Town had no more animals gaining intelligence.

Although the director had been up all night eating hot pot and still hadn't woken up, the mature crew kept busy on their own.

Just as the crew was taking publicity photos of Song Jixing inside the mansion, a cat suddenly climbed over the wall and calmly walked over to everyone, meowing.

One cat, two cats, three cats...

Gradually, over a dozen came.

Every cat that climbed over would meow a few times, then walk around quietly without meowing anymore.

In addition to these cats climbing the walls, there were also some fat cats gathered on the other side of the enclosure wall, helplessly scratching the walls and meowing.

Seeing the mansion full of cats, the crew was completely baffled. "What's with these cats?"

"I heard recently some dirty stuff was making trouble. Could that stuff be in this mansion?"

"Nonsense! If there was something dirty, would the cats be flocking over like this?"

The crowd kept arguing over the cats' appearance.

Song Jixing quietly stood to the side watching, watching the dots of light in the morning glow, like fireflies filling the garden, slowly flowing into her body, warm and bright.

Song Jixing took a few steps forward and squatted down, petting the black and white cow cat in front.

The cow cat immediately rubbed Song Jixing's palm, purring comfortably.

Seeing this, the other cats were not to be outdone. One by one they ran over to Song Jixing and lay on the ground, exposing their soft bellies, seeming to be waiting for Song Jixing's favor.

Everyone suddenly realized, "So Sister Song is so popular with cats!"

To have so many cats flock over waiting to be petted, what a delightful thing!

Song Jixing felt that rather than the cats liking her, it was the cats repaying her.

Their bellies were cute, and she liked their spirit energy too!

That afternoon, the news that the town was closing came along with the news that the director had woken up.

"The town is closing, what the heck? Why did the perfectly good town close?" Shi Fei said angrily.

When Shi Fei heard this news, he hadn’t even fully dressed. He wore a long sleeved sweatshirt with flowered boxer shorts on the bottom, with only one slipper on his foot, and it was even on the wrong foot.

The town worker who came to deliver the message was also very helpless: “This was ordered from above, it’s not something we can decide.”

"I spent so much money renting your mansion, invested billions into this show, and you say close just like that! What about my show? What about my investment!" Shi Fei asked coldly.

"I'm truly very sorry. You can apply for compensation from above. We can provide you the contact details..." The staff member apologized repeatedly.

The assistant director and producer came to persuade him.

"Alright, alright, look at all these armored vehicles here today! Let's go back. We can't afford to offend the higher ups!"

In the pause of their conversation, an armored vehicle drove by across the bridge.

Shi Fei shouted loudly, "Where's my phone? Go find my phone for me!"

The assistant hurriedly handed the phone over. Shi Fei took the phone to a corner and made a call.

After the call, Shi Fei's expression was not as ugly as before, but it wasn't much better either.

Hands on his waist, he returned to his previous spot and said to everyone, "Pack up everything and leave with me. We can't shoot here anymore. I'll find another place. After all, I have money to burn..."

Shi Fei threw down those irritated words and went back to the yard to pack up. Everyone else started moving too.

Song Jixing stood by the riverside brushing the cat hair off herself, then slowly walked back to the RV.

Living alone in the RV was lonely, but it also had its advantages. Like now, when everyone was packing up, she didn't need to pack.

No one understood the reason for Jiyu Ancient Town's changes better than Song Jixing.

At the same time, she also anticipated those changes very much. Those changes would impact the lives of fellow cultivators here, and also impact this world.

She hoped they were developing in a good direction.

Shi Fei had been chased out of the town. His will was greatly weakened. He immediately invited the crew members and several leads from the show to go drink away his sorrows with him.

The crew didn't dare decline. The leads came up with various excuses, saying they had to go back and check on things, or would drink just one cup with Shi Fei but couldn't drink more because of managing their figures.

"Director, what exactly happened? Why did the military take over?" Someone asked curiously.

Shi Fei also looked confused. "I'd like to know too. If I knew I wouldn't be here drinking! Not only were we kicked out, all the town residents were also gone, not a single one left."

As he spoke, Shi Fei lit a cigarette, igniting the distress in his heart even more.

This was also why Shi Fei had compromised so quickly.

He wasn't lacking money. Anyone he could bribe, he had bribed already. But this time it was people from high up stepping in, evacuating everyone from the town, so the issue must be very serious!

Who knows what safety hazards could still exist!

Shi Fei wasn't yet the globally famous horror movie director. He didn't want to get in trouble!

"That serious?" Everyone else exclaimed.

Incidentally, some also shared this news in the crew's group chat.

Although some wanted to share it online too, they realized they couldn't post anything with keywords like Jiyu, etc.

After noticing this, everyone chose to share this event using more vague homophones!

-

When the entire crew learned they would soon be on vacation, Song Jixing's palm started burning hot again.

This time, it was an ordinary gentle warmth, as if hinting that something was about to happen.

Song Jixing decisively started her RV heading towards the steel factory area.

Master Wen Ren had many disciples scattered under his mountain peaks, not gathered together, scattered about instead.

Furthermore, in addition to them, some others had also come to celebrate the opening of the treasury this time. Song Jixing felt at least two more should show up.

It was time for the blind box lottery again!

Just as Song Jixing had barely left town, she bumped into Xu Kai driving the opposite way.

Xu Kai waved from inside his car, then gestured at the side, signaling Song Jixing to pull over to talk.

"I heard about your crew stopping work! But don't worry. What's meant to be yours won't run away!" Xu Kai started consolingly.

Song Jixing nodded. She actually didn't feel anything inside.

If she had known it would be so easy to resolve, she would've just taken a taxi here directly.

But being the female lead did come with quite a nice paycheck. Win-win.

After saying this, Xu Kai's tone changed as he cautiously looked all around and asked: "I heard Jiyu had extremely bad supernatural activity issues and people from above went in too. You stayed a few days, did you see anything?"
