This Female Celebrity Comes from the Cultivation World

Chapter 149: Sad Puppy



Chapter 149

"Little Sister, I told you before, but they said they would exchange the core technology with me, and I really couldn't resist the temptation!" In the noisy filming scene, Song Jixing heard Shen Feixian's voice coming from the other end.

Previously, Shen Feixian had mentioned it to her, and she had agreed.

However, Song Jixing didn't expect that this Teleportation Formation would be much larger than she had imagined.

Burying Spirit Stones was simple, but the difficult part was that after all the Spirit Stones were prepared, she would have to expend a great deal of effort to carve a formation.

In the cultivation world, the various Cultivation Metropolises were far apart, and there were many Demon Beasts along the way. Ordinary people and cultivators with slightly weaker abilities would become prey for the Demon Beasts. Thus, powerful beings had built teleportation formations in certain gathering places to promote the prosperity of trade in the cultivation world.

The more people transported, and the more times it was used, the greater the challenge it posed to the cultivator who laid the formation.

Song Jixing thought for a moment, considering this task as if she were simply taking on a manual labor job.

Not hearing much from Song Jixing on the other end, Shen Feixian was a little worried. "Little Sister, don't worry. When the communication business in our sect develops in the future, you'll definitely have a share."

Song Jixing didn't see Shen Feixian as the kind of leader who makes empty promises, but of course, before anything is realized, it's all empty promises.

Song Jixing hung up the phone and listened to the discussions on the set.

Ever since the news about the animal experiments broke, many lost pets had been claimed by their owners, but a considerable number of pets had also perished.

There was even an actor in their crew whose dog went missing and was sent back by the relevant authorities.

However, this "sending back" wasn't simply bringing the dog to the door, but rather summoning the owner.

Xu Kai relayed the information he got from above to Song Jixing.

The actor's dog happened to have a Spiritual Root, so considering he was the dog's owner, he was called in by the higher-ups.

Regarding the matter of raising animals with Spiritual Roots, the authorities were still deliberating countermeasures. After all, the situation had occurred too suddenly, and many laws and regulations were uncertain.

If it was a wild, unclaimed animal, it would be much easier to handle.

After inquiring with the people from the Qingyun Sect, the authorities formulated corresponding policies and measures.

It was already very difficult for humans to cultivate, let alone animals. Their current focus was on guiding human cultivation, not animal cultivation.

But for animals with Spiritual Roots, they would still be registered and visited periodically. As for whether they could Absorb Spiritual Energy into the Body, it all depended on their innate talent.

The current situation was that animals might cultivate faster than humans. If animals with spiritual energy were allowed to grow without proper taming, it would be a hassle to deal with them later.

Although the Qingyun Sect said they could Form a Spirit Contract with animals to establish a relationship, a Spiritual Contract wasn't very suitable for cases where the owner's cultivation level was lower than the pet's.

If they weren't careful, the pet could end up dominating the owner.

In the future, they would also be on the path of cultivation, but for now, it needed to be slowed down.

After two days, the actor returned.

-

Fei Wennan, 31 years old, male, single, actor by profession.

Fei Wennan came from a less privileged background. Compared to various celebrities on the silver screen who seemed to have flawless faces, he had a straightforward and honest-looking face.

Although he couldn't achieve great fame and fortune, his decent acting skills and distinctive appearance allowed him to land quite a few roles.

In this movie, he played the role of one of Song Jixing's neighbors, a kind and honest older brother figure who enters the police station alongside the main character. Although he wasn't as dazzling as the lead, he would play an important role at a critical juncture.

"How did it go? Is your dog okay?" the director asked with concern.

Fei Wennan had been wearing a smile on his face since he arrived on set, as if he was in a great mood. "No problem! He's been sent back, the dog is fine!"

He had secured a part-time job thanks to his dog, and it was a paid one.

Previously, Fei Wennan had only heard of the saying "attaining enlightenment leads to the ascension of one's pets," but now, because of his dog, he was receiving a stipend from the state!

It was truly a blessing!

Compared to the unstable income from acting roles, this part-time job offered a stable income that could alleviate many of his financial worries. Even if he didn't land any roles for a year, he wouldn't have to worry about not having enough to eat. This was the dream life he had always wanted.

"That's good news, we've all been waiting for you!" After checking on Fei Wennan, the director returned to his work.

When the crew was wrapping up for the day, Fei Wennan approached the director again to discuss his dog's situation.

He didn't dare say too much to the director, as he didn't want to lose his job. He simply mentioned that he was worried about his dog being coveted by others, so he wanted to bring the dog to the set to keep an eye on it.

When mentioning the dog, Fei Wennan even made a promise: "...Director, rest assured, my Ah Huang is very obedient, he absolutely won't bite or bark excessively, and he's very friendly!"

Perhaps the director was curious about the precious dog that had been smuggled into the laboratory, so he agreed, allowing Fei Wennan to bring the dog over for a look before making any decisions.

As long as the dog didn't bark too much, it could be tied up with a leash.

There were previous instances of actors bringing their pets to the set, but they were mostly cats, rabbits, hamsters, and the like. Dogs were less common.

With the director's permission, Fei Wennan brought the dog the next day.

It was a fluffy, wagging-tail small terrier with yellow, short fur. Its black, shiny eyes sparkled, and its short, stubby tail wagged frantically, like a small motor had been installed.

Just as Fei Wennan had said, the dog didn't bark much, usually just wagging its tail excitedly and occasionally letting out a few whimpers.

Curious crew members approached and, when Fei Wennan wasn't around, tried to tempt the little dog with chicken drumsticks and sausages.

"You must be tired from wagging your tail for so long. Come, have a bite of this delicious chicken drumstick Uncle bought for you. It smells so good!"

The little dog stood still, wagging its tail faster than ever before! But it only let out a few soft whimpers and refused to eat the food offered by the others.

Seeing the dog not eating, the people thought it might be used to eating better food and disliked chicken drumsticks, until they noticed two distinct trails of drool in front of the dog!

The group burst into laughter.

"This little dog is so well-behaved! When I was his age, I couldn't resist the temptation of chicken drumsticks!" "Come on, have a bite. You're at the age of growing, eating well will help you grow faster. Uncle's not lying to you!"

One by one, the people pulled out beef jerky, pork belly, chicken feet, beef tendons, and more...

The little dog had never experienced such temptation or humiliation in its life. It whimpered louder, tears streaming down its cheeks in a pitiful display.

Fei Wennan had finished his scenes and heard the commotion outside, along with the words related to the dog. He immediately rushed to his little dog's side.

Like a hero rescuing his dog, he drove away the "vile dragons" surrounding his pet!

"All of you, leave! Stop teasing my Ah Huang!" Fei Wennan scolded, pretending to be stern.

The group laughed and left with their food, leaving the heartbroken little dog crying on the spot.
