Placing salt above the door frame for mantra believers to practice is a very unusual thing - Lu Ning happens to know the meaning of this unusual behavior. That is the beginning of the calling ceremony of the "sea", and it is also the final destination for the believers of the truth to self-destruction. When a series of rituals are completed, the "sea" will be able to flood this reality through the passage opened by these completely corrupted believers. .
The biggest threat facing the world was clearly in front of Lu Ning at this moment. She did not hesitate, recalled the relevant knowledge for a while, and then told Ana everything she knew.
"Putting salt on the top of the door will prevent it from rotting. Opening the door is the starting point of the ceremony. From then on, the wind from the sea will blow across the earth, and the abundant water will fall from the sky, filtering out the creatures who remember their destination."
Lu Ning recalled the relevant knowledge.
"That sounds really bad. Don't these people know what they are doing?"
"They worship their own gods, but they don't know that their gods have a unified destination. The corrosion of the sea not only affects life, but also mantras." Lu Ning muttered, "The problem now is that after these people evacuated urgently, , will definitely continue to be implemented.”
"What's the next ritual?"
As the sea where countless dead civilizations are immersed, it is not an easy task to let it fall. For the first one, you have to wait for the rain to stop before continuing with the second ceremony. This is a necessary process of the ceremony, and at the same time it is very important to the sea. For Lu Ning, it also represents the time limit left in the scene.
Cut off snakes in the east, crush scorpions in the west, cut off ten rat tails and plant them in the north, take four coins of spider webs and spread them in the south. Snakes, insects, rats, and ants must foresee the coming of natural disasters. It makes well water and river water smell fishy, and drinking it causes abdominal pain.
The second ritual is actually to frame a space where the sea descends. It cannot directly plunge into the real world. A "tiny" gap must be opened between the two. Of course, the so-called "tiny" refers to the world. Transformation There is still room for a realistic calculation method that includes the entire film and television base and surrounding areas.
"Isn't that a good thing?" Ana slapped her hand, startling Lu Ning.
"According to what you said, next time they want to cause trouble in the east, west, north and south, then I will go back and tell Lan Tu directly to let the patrol team patrol 24 hours a day, I don't believe they can't catch them! Haha! With you, it's really amazing It went well, Lan Tu was right."
Ana's method is simple and crude... but extremely effective. Thinking about it this way, if it weren't for the inability to accurately estimate the size of the area, Lu Ning would have even wanted Ana to tell Lan Tu to line up at the border and blockade it.
"Just do it this way. As long as one link is broken, they will have to start all over again to do whatever they want. We will not give them this opportunity."
"But what if they narrow the scope?"
"At least 90% of the film and television base must be included. If one world wants to invade another world, the space sea is too small to pass through."
"No problem! I will definitely tell Lan Tu to take care of these guys." Ana took out a lollipop, "Shall we leave now? I doubt that brother can last long."
"Okay, it's not advisable to stay for a long time."
When the two of them went downstairs, they also saw Xie Qitong packing up a small package. Lu Ning and Xie Qitong looked at each other, knowing that the other had found what they were looking for, and ran out of the house.
Not many people came - after all, Donald didn't have the dignity to invite all the secret police out, that is, two cars, and no one even at the captain level came. Weng Cunji still delayed the other party for a while, leaving Lu Ningsan. This leaves enough room for investigation.
"How's it going?" When Weng Cunxie saw the three people coming back, he asked Xie Qitong, "Did Qin Ya bite off a piece of their flesh?"
"Of course... with her character, if you want to kill her, you will definitely have to pay a high price." Xie Qitong forced a smile, "Let's go back. If there is any action in the future, we will contact you."
"Okay." Lu Ning didn't know what to say, so she only said one word in the end.
The two parties drove back. Ana dropped Lu Ning at the door of the hotel and went back to find Lan Tu to arrange the inspection. Lu Ning walked upstairs with heavy steps and returned to his room.
Qu Yi has come back and is checking something with his computer. Hearing the sound of the door, he raised his head, a little surprised: "You don't look good, something happened?"
"It's nothing, it's my business. Have you come out of the previous state? It seems that Sister Xunyou will not have a profound impact on you."
"Well, I also feel that my mental state is a little better. I guess it was because I concentrated on today's shooting, which slowed down some of the effects?" Qu Yi said uncertainly, "The kind that the Xunyou Sisters had accumulated for hundreds of thousands of years before The cruelty and predatory instincts are so easily intoxicated that I thought nothing could divert my attention."
"You are no longer in the original scene. The organization in this scene does not have that kind of dominance." Lu Ning said.
Qu Yi nodded and continued tapping on the computer screen.
"What are you studying?"
"Data." Qu Yi said.
Qu Yi has shown her sensitivity to numbers before. Although she is not as talented as those mathematical geniuses, she has at least developed many skills through acquired skills. What struck Qu Yi most strangely at this time was the data obtained from the outside.
The film and television base has become a well-known attraction since it came to North Muda for live broadcast. This news has already spread with the explosive spread of the Internet. Various reviews and travel websites have long been full of tourism data about this place. Okay, this is exactly what Qu Yi was checking just now.
"Is there any problem with the data?" Lu Ning moved closer and glanced across the computer screen. Qu Yi has excerpted multiple data together.
"The data on the website is inconsistent. This is normal. After all, it is only a third party. The statistical methods are also different, but the approximate volume should be similar." Pointing to one of the rows, "But I am more concerned about this. , the number of people, the number of comments, the number of likes on the photo, etc., the proportions...are very different."
Not everyone who has visited a scenic spot will happily share their reviews, and even if they share, they may not specifically mention it on a travel app or website. The same is obviously true here. According to statistics, one in a thousand people All evaluations are considered high, and most of them cannot even reach one ten thousandth.
However……
"Have there been so many tourists recently?" Lu Ning glanced at the numbers. Judging from all statistics, the number of people visiting this film and television base has reached one million levels, and some cities don't even have that many people. Even though the tourists were mobile, Lu Ning didn't feel that there were so many people coming and going here.
"Tourists may enter through every door, but it has only been a few days since the place officially started accepting tourists. Even if 10,000 people a day cannot reach this data volume. The number of guests itself is strange, and there are very few people who give reviews. , I even feel that there is data fraud.”
"But every website is fake? Then again, these websites didn't notice anything was wrong?" Lu Ning asked.
Qu Yi was helpless: "These websites are now promoting this as a hot topic, and they are probably planning to reach a cooperation agreement with this place. As for this data... we have not really lived here for several days. There is nothing unusual that can be noticed. Some people may think that it is normal for a film and television base to receive millions of people in a few days."
"So what is the data based on? Traffic? Or is it someone checking in on it? If it is the former, it is too inaccurate. If it is the latter, then how can the data be roughly the same?" Lu Ning said doubtfully, "I I think very few people would check in on all travel websites, right?”
"There is another most direct method." Qu Yi typed on the keyboard, "This data is given directly by the film and television base."
"Given it by the film and television base? Then why -" Lu Ning reacted immediately.
The six investors were not of the same mind, and she had known this information for a long time.
Qu Yi also nodded: "Yes, the data of different websites should be provided by different investors. Although I don't know why they can independently agree on this kind of thing... But the key issue is that each company Number of people registered.”
"The data here is far more than six." Lu Ning thought for a while, "Their needs are also different."
"That's right, because the audience of each website is also different. This number... comes from their needs."
There may be overlap in these data, and there may also be differences.
"What exactly are these six companies planning to do?" Qu Yi pondered. She had not met the chairman, and of course she could not get any information from the tourists on that side. Lu Ning knew the situation on the chairman's side, and she could even ask Yin Xiu about the actual situation after a while.
"They each had their own purposes, and I think they were all prepared to carry them out on this shoot."
"Then one of the purposes is to let the sea complete its erosion of the inland?" Qu Yi had also seen the scene of the ghost ship jumping into the sea in Shenyuan City, and he had a very intuitive impression of the sea.
"Who knows? Maybe you can use the power of the Sisters to do some research. I think the Sisters of Xunyou don't want to be destroyed together with the Inland, right? Their detachment must be completed by devouring other things. Without the Inland , there are only corpses in the sea.”
"I know, and I'm prepared to do it, but I can't say whether it's a good idea for the sisterhood to take action now."
Lu Ning put her hand on Qu Yi's shoulder.
"You just tell your superiors, they will make the decision, and whatever decision they make... it will not actually affect the final outcome."
She said in a steady voice. This was the first time she had given a guarantee as an "interviewer".
Qu Yi nodded slightly.
Lu Ning left Qu Yi, took a change of clothes and walked into the bathroom.

Late at night, Yin Xiu received an email from Lu Ning. Her investigation results on several snake meerkat strongholds, as well as the ceremony that the Mantra believers are preparing to summon the sea today, as well as the questions about abnormal tourists tonight are all listed in the email. Yin Xiu smiled when he saw it and said softly: "Our partners are indeed capable people."
"You have a discerning eye." Yin He said calmly beside him.
"And the smell of blood on your body is a little stronger. Doesn't it matter?"
"It's okay, they're just outsiders." Yin He replied, "Except for the dozen or so most important people, this place will soon be clean."
"Are you sure it will be clean?"
"Yes, it's clean enough to reflect the moonlight."
Yin Xiu laughed loudly, then stretched out his hand, shrinking Lu Ning's email first, revealing the emails sent to him by several other people.
"Qin Zhilan, Wei Jia's information is also very valuable... How is the filming going? Have the two directors completed the coordination?"
"We met, but it's just preliminary. Moonlight Valley should be able to be expanded through this method, but to what extent it can be expanded is still unclear." Yin He became serious when talking about work, "Director Yu Zhan has no doubt It was filmed strictly in accordance with our requirements, but Beimuda is the anchor after all, and his personality is more out-of-the-box, so his filming may not fully meet expectations."
"Hahaha, why else would we have to prepare third-hand? Since we mentioned two people, what about our director? According to the progress, it should be the filming of the fourth episode of the variety show now."
"We have planned twelve episodes, and Director Jing's speed is almost in line with Director Yu Zhan's progress. However, compared to the strict script, Director Jing seems to be more inclined to let the guests play freely, which is not conducive to the construction of Moonlight Valley. .”
"No, I think he probably knows something. Since we trust the three directors, let's let them play freely. No matter what the outcome is, we have a plan. The only important thing is to ensure that all filming is completed smoothly." Yin Xiu warned.
"Of course, that's the first priority."
Yin Xiu quickly typed a reply to the email: "Have you found the organization that kidnapped the other two chairman of the board?"
"It's not those small organizations. It's obvious that Snake Meerkat has entrusted some extraordinary people."
"Well, it was also described in Lu Ning's report... Even the ascetic has entrusted it? This is really unexpected... Is there any other force besides us that can entrust the ascetic?"
"Ascetics are just practicing. They also have desires. They don't have to rely on strength. They can be hired with sufficient conditions. After all, people who have creeds will not violate their creeds, and ascetics cannot do such things as snatch things and leave. "Yin He said, "But this also means..."
"Does the other party know the ascetic very well? Why does he sound more like a tourist... Are there any tourists whose information we don't have?"
"This must be confirmed by you as a tourist. Chairman, I don't know your question." Yin He shook his head slightly.
"Who made you my right-hand deputy? It really makes me feel that I am too blessed. Okay, okay, you go and rest, and I will handle the rest of the affairs today. As for tomorrow..." Yin Xiu glanced at the email, " Let’s get things back to normal tomorrow.”
