Acting Quest: Pin Dao is really just an actor

Chapter 105 Up the Mountain 【Two in One】

Five in the morning.

A fiery red sports car slowly drove out of the underground parking lot, without a roaring engine or roaring exhaust pipe, it just drove quietly on the quiet street.

It wasn't Kong Linger who was driving.

Kong Linger was sitting in the co-driver, wearing the white suit that had been with her for several days, leaning her head against the window, looking out the window with dull eyes, bloodshot eyes that were somewhat dead.

Xiao Ning, a young female assistant who just graduated from university, held the steering wheel and glanced at Kong Linger's movements from time to time, with some worries in her eyes.

Ever since her grandfather fell ill, Kong Linger has been guarding the villa every step of the way.

This has also led to a considerable accumulation of company work that has been precisely controlled by her.

These problems became more and more pressing, but Kong Linger did not dare to leave the villa, for fear that something might happen to her grandpa, so she could only procrastinate and procrastinate.

It wasn't until last night that uncle Kong Chengye returned late at night that Kong Linger dared to leave to deal with the company's messy affairs.

Because compared to other relatives in the family, only when the uncle is guarding the grandfather can the girl be at ease.

For the whole night, Kong Ling'er was dealing with the company's business, but she didn't see each other.

It was also thanks to Kong Linger being a martial artist with cultivation base, otherwise ordinary people would have been unbearable for dozens of hours without sleep and high-intensity mental stress.

But even with her cultivation base, Kong Linger's condition is still very poor.

On the one hand, it was fatigue, and on the other hand, it was worry, which made the girl who was supposed to be strong extremely depressed.

Her mental state no longer supported her to continue driving, so her assistant escorted her back to Kong's villa.

The fiery red sports car was driving in Yushui City, and the inside of the sports car was extremely quiet, only the sound of two people's breathing remained.

Xiao Ning was not worried about Kong Linger's physical condition, and asked tentatively, "Mr. Kong, do you want to go home and rest for a while?"

Kong Ling'er just shook her head and didn't speak, leaning in the corner with a thin body, looking extremely desolate and helpless.

Last night, Uncle Kong Chengye decided to announce the truth about his grandfather's illness to the public.

It is scheduled at ten o'clock this morning, and all those who are concerned about the health of the old man of the Kong family will be invited together.

It can also be regarded as the answer and attitude of the Confucius family.

Logically, in such a situation, several branches of the Kong family must be present.

But Kong Linger cared more about Grandpa's condition than these.

Another day has passed.

There is still no result as to why grandpa passed out suddenly and why his life and death were unknown.

However, Kong Linjiang's body was normal, as if he was just like a healthy person except he was unconscious.

It's like a good normal person, who didn't encounter any impact, blow, or substantial injury, and suddenly became a vegetable.

Kong Linjiang's illness, even Huang Lao, a leading figure who has worked hard in the medical field all his life, can't understand it, which makes Kong's family even more confused.

But it was this kind of cloudiness that made Kong Linger fall into the abyss.

If grandpa really had a relapse of some old disease, or a sudden heart and cerebrovascular disease, Kong Linger would understand.

But it was these clueless and weird things that made Kong Linger feel at ease all the time, and always felt that something was wrong hidden in them.

Although she couldn't produce any evidence, this feeling has always been in the girl's heart, lingering.

Looking at the helpless girl, Xiao Ning felt distressed, and asked in a low voice: "The chairman's health hasn't improved yet?"

Now the news of Kong Linjiang's illness has sprung up all over Yushui City like bamboo shoots after a spring rain, almost everyone knows about it.

Xiao Ning's personality is almost the same as Kong Linger's. She is conscientious, diligent, and careful in her work.

In addition, the two are in similar grades. Although they are in a working relationship, they are more like little sisters in private.

It is normal to know more about the Kong family.

"All kinds of medical methods have been used, but the cause still cannot be found."

Kong Linger nodded and did not hide from this girl who was a few years younger than herself. The current situation in Yushui City is the same as playing a bright card, and there is no need to hide it.

Xiao Ning, who was driving, sighed, her clear eyes were filled with worry and hesitation.

"Then... have you tried other methods?"

After a little thought, Xiao Ning still hesitated and opened her mouth.

"Other ways?"

Kong Ling'er turned her head slowly, with some puzzled eyes: "What do you mean?"

"I can't say, anyway..."

Xiao Ning's face was a little embarrassed, and she hesitated to speak.

"Just the two of us in the car, let's talk, it's okay."

Kong Linger raised her spirits a bit. For her, nothing is more important than being able to cure Kong Linjiang now.

Xiao Ning lowered the speed of the car a little: "When I was a child, I was weak and was always frightened, and my fever didn't go away after taking medicine and injections. My grandma would take me to find that kind of witch in the village..."

"Witch..."

Kong Linger murmured subconsciously.

The girl only felt a ray of light explode in her heart, and the originally lifeless eyes suddenly became brighter, and the slumped aura was swept away, but it was a kind of surprise like being reborn.

"parking!"

For several days, her face had been sinking like water, and the girl who was shrouded in grievance and depression suddenly had a smile on her face, her eyes were extremely hot.

"Squeak--!"

A piercing sound of sudden braking resounded through the streets and alleys of Yushui City.

With a faint smoke, the fiery red top sports car drew two black brake marks on the ground, and stopped firmly on the side of the road.

Shaking with inertia, Xiao Ning held the steering wheel tightly with both hands, turned her head to look at Kong Ling'er who suddenly smiled, panting heavily.

Xiao Ning is completely used to the way the two get along.

You plan, I execute.

Without the slightest hesitation.

So when Xiao Ning heard Kong Linger yelling to stop, she almost executed the command mechanically.

Already forgot to observe the left and right and front and rear vehicles, and stopped suddenly without warning.

"Drip, Didi——!"

Although it was early in the morning, not only this car on the road, but also the cars that followed the fiery red sports car in an accident were all covered in cold sweat.

Not for anything else.

The top sports car of this level has basically exceeded the insurance coverage of the three...

I saw Kong Ling'er excitedly holding Xiao Ning's hand, as if grasping the last straw.

"boom--!"

A moment later, the fiery red sports car drew a U-shaped turn on the road and drove into the other lane. The crimson tongue of flames spit out from the exhaust pipe in the opposite direction, and went away with the roar of the engine.

A group of passers-by who were startled by the roaring air waves were left behind.

……

More than an hour later, the fiery red sports car stopped slowly at the foot of a mountain.

Before the car came to a complete stop, Kong Linger, who was wearing a white suit, pressed the door lock on the central control, stepped out of the car door, and ran up the mountain road.

There is no image of not being angry and arrogant at work in the past.

Before Xiao Ning could react, Kong Linger was almost on the way up the mountain.

"Hey, Boss Kong!!"

This made the young Xiao Ning even more anxious, parked the car casually, and chased Kong Linger with all her strength, but the distance between the two showed no sign of getting closer.

In the early morning sun, the scene of two girls chasing on the mountain road is very interesting.

Kong Ling'er didn't pay any attention to the shouts behind her, and ran to the top of the mountain with all her heart.

Many people who climbed the mountain slowly looked at the figures of the two girls, and they were a little bit dumbfounded.

When the two returned from the city center, they just caught up with the morning rush hour, and they were delayed a lot of time on the road, which made Kong Linger even more anxious.

The mountain road, which took nearly 10 minutes, reached the top of the mountain in less than 10 minutes by the two girls.

Kong Linger's condition is not bad. As a well-cultivated warrior, her physical fitness is far superior to that of ordinary people. The exhaustion of these exercises is not enough to make her tired.

But Xiao Ning's condition is not very good.

It's not bad, it's very bad...

After stepping on the top of the mountain, Xiao Ning leaned on her knees with both hands, panting heavily, and couldn't even find the strength to speak.

On the mountain, some old people who got up early and waited here looked at the out of breath girl and smiled knowingly.

"Kong, Mr. Kong, you, you wait, wait for me..."

After a long while, Xiao Ning, who was out of breath, finally came to her senses, panting and raised her head to look at Kong Ling'er, but at this moment, Kong Boss, who was originally sluggish, was staring straight into the distance, dazed.

Following Kong Linger's gaze, a Taoist temple full of vicissitudes and mottled atmosphere appeared in front of Xiao Ning.

In front of the Taoist temple, there are all pilgrims waiting here.

This makes the girl who just left school a little puzzled. It is well known that the morals of the world are not obvious.

Why did this Taoist temple gather so many pilgrims during this time period? !

This... this is not normal.

"Clear, Clear Cloud View?"

Xiao Ning was talking to herself a little like in another world.

Mrs. Ma, who must be in the first echelon of pilgrims, walked up to the two of them, with a kind smile on her face, and asked, "Girl, is this your first time here?"

"Let me tell you, this Qingyun temple is this one!"

Saying that, Madam Ma raised her thumbs up, with a proud expression on her face: "Our little Daoist Lu is even more of a godlike person, killing demons and catching ghosts is no problem..."

Listening to the old man's narration, Kong Ling'er, who stood at the front, was in a trance for a while, with mixed feelings in her heart.

"Slaying monsters, catching ghosts..."

The girl muttered to herself, why didn't she know this?
Because once upon a time, these were the scenes she saw with her own eyes!
Thinking of this, the figure of the young Taoist priest appeared in Kong Linger's mind.

There are swords to slay demons, there are one-faced soldiers, and there are also people who sit and drink tea with the demon king of ten thousand years in the heavy rain, and those who do not change their colors under the catastrophe...

And all the shocks and shocks in her life came from that back view.

"Are you scared?"

The old lady Ma chuckled, pointed at the dilapidated mountain gate of Qingyun Temple, and said confidently: "Girl, don't worry, no matter what happens, our little Daoist Lu will respond to your requests. You are waiting for another hour and the incense will be opened." .”

"But you have to remember that Qingyun Temple does not sell incense and does not collect merits. Auntie sees that this is the first time for you to come, come, take it!"

After speaking, the old lady Ma stuffed the arranged incense into Kong Linger's hand, and said with a smile while stuffing it: "Don't worry, aunt's incense doesn't cost money, just remember to bring your own incense when you come next time." !"

Kong Ling'er, who had a complicated expression and didn't know how to answer, could only hum slightly, and said softly, "Thank you, aunt."

"No way, no way."

The old lady Ma shook her hand heartily, and praised sincerely: "The girl is so handsome!"

"Boss Kong."

Xiao Ning, who had almost recovered her breath, stepped forward in doubt, and asked in confusion, "What are we doing here?"

Wearing a white suit, Kong Ling'er slowly raised her head, looking at the quaint and mottled dilapidated Taoist temple, her eyes flickered, and she said in a low voice, "I'm waiting to see someone."

"Wait, wait?!"

Xiao Ning turned her head suspiciously, looked at the dilapidated mountain gate, and murmured: "Didn't the old lady say that the gate would not open until an hour later?"

Kong Linger nodded.

"Aren't we in a hurry?"

This time, Xiao Ning was even more confused.

Kong Linger looked hesitant, but did not speak.

Because she wasn't sure what would happen if she left those arrogant impressions on Lu Chen when she was in the secret place in the western suburbs.

Although Xiao Ning couldn't see what was going on in Kong Linger's mind.

But she has been by Kong Linger's side since her internship in her junior year. After these two years, no one in the entire company knows Kong Linger better than her.

The person who made Kong Linger rush up the mountain to see her regardless of her image must be extremely important.

Xiao Ning frowned, stopped the old lady Ma who was about to leave, and asked softly: "Ma'am, does this Taoist temple only open at nine o'clock?"

This is the rule left by Master Lu Chen. Firstly, the barren mountain and wild temples are used to idleness, and because there are really no pilgrims, and the early opening is empty, it is not as good as a certain face.

Pilgrims like Old Madam Ma who occasionally came to help the Taoist temple to offer incense know the time, and Lu Chen also subtly set the opening time of the Taoist temple at nine o'clock.

The old lady Ma, who is considered as the No.1 non-staff member of Qingyun Temple, kept nodding: "Yes."

Xiao Ning thought for a while, frowned her eyebrows, got up and walked over Old Madam Ma towards the gate of Qingyun Temple.

"Hey girl, why are you going?"

The old lady Ma, who had lived all her life, sensed that the girl's emotions were wrong, and hurriedly shouted to stop Xiao Ning's footsteps.

But Xiao Ning had already walked to the mountain gate, Shen looked back at the old lady Ma who was chasing after her, and said in a low voice, "Call the door."

"what?!"

A group of pilgrims who were waiting here and wanted to enter the Qingyun temple were stunned, and the old lady Ma was confused, and she was about to step forward to stop her, and said in a panic: "Girl, we must not disturb the tranquility of the outsiders."

But the speed of the old lady can't compare to the girl's raising her hand. Xiao Ning said with a cold face, "Since you know that there are people waiting outside the mountain, you still use your identity to refuse to see the visitor, what's the use of waiting for him in the Taoist temple?"

"Boom!"

After finishing speaking, the girl Xiao Ning kept knocking on the dilapidated Taoist temple gate with her powder fist.

"Xiao Ning, don't mess around!"

Kong Linger, who had been meditating all this time, came back to her senses and stopped it.

But as soon as Kong Linger finished speaking, a small gap opened in the closed and dilapidated mountain gate, and a man's laughter slowly came out from the gap.

"The girl is right."

After the loud sound, the mountain gate was completely opened and closed, revealing a very handsome man's face. The young Taoist priest looked at Xiao Ning who was still making the gesture of smashing the door with great interest, and said with a soft smile: "This is indeed a negligence of the poor Taoist."

Hearing the man's voice, Kong Ling'er, who had been in a daze for a long time, came back to her senses, and looked up at the young Taoist priest in the mountain gate, her eyes flickering.

Eyes intertwined, Lu Chen, who had just returned to the mountain gate, was a little surprised, and said with a soft smile:
"Miss Kong?"
