Chapter 31 A Woman Who Amazed the World

Tom Cruz was startled by Cao Kun's reaction.

His face turned even paler and more ashen: "Damn it, even you can't solve this?"

Cao Kun waved his hand, signaling Tom Cruz to be quiet.

He realized why he felt a sense of familiarity.

He had seen all of this in a movie.

In that movie, a young couple moved into a new house.

The male protagonist bought a dV camera and planned to film some footage of his home.

However, the way I unintentionally moved things around in the house and moved them around made it seem as if there was another person living in the house.

These things escalated, and the young couple became frightened.

They invited an exorcist and told him everything.

After inspecting the house, the exorcist told them that there was nothing in the house.

The female protagonist is still scared and wants to move away, but the male protagonist wants to record everything and make a movie to make money.

But soon, something even more terrifying happened: they wanted to move out, but it was too late.

The movie is called "Paranormal Activity".

It is a very famous movie in the horror genre.

It's not that the movie is particularly scary or exciting, but rather that it only cost US dollars to make, yet it raked in a staggering $193 million at the global box office.

In many entertainment novels, the protagonist's first work is this one film.

Although that movie wasn't exactly the same as Tom Cruise's experience, it had about 70% similarity.

Moving to a new house, documenting life, they discover paranormal phenomena, call in an exorcist, but the exorcist finds nothing, and the male and female protagonists' lives get increasingly miserable...

All of these match up.

The difference is that in that movie, both the male and female protagonists died in the end.

Currently, Tom and Chris do not have one.

how so?

Cao Kun was somewhat dumbfounded.

Has the movie become a reality?

Cao Kun recalls that this is a 2007 film, and it hasn't been made yet.

"Wait, is the movie becoming reality?"

"Horror movie?"

Cao Kun searched his predecessor's memories and discovered some anomalies.

"Wait a minute, why haven't I seen any of these horror movies?"

"What are 'Turning Back,' 'Cross,' and 'Dark Night'?"

Cao Kun carefully searched his predecessor's memories. Everything else was fine, except for the horror movies in his memories, which were all so unfamiliar.

He hadn't watched a single one of them.

Cao Kun looked puzzled and asked Tom Cruise, "Do you know these movies: 'Turning Back,' 'Cross,' 'Dark Night,' and 'Don't Look Back'?"

Tom Cruise said without much thought: "These are all horror movies. I've seen 'Backtrack' and 'Cross,' and I've only heard of 'Dark Night' and 'Don't Look Back,' but I haven't seen them."

Master Cao, what's wrong?

Tom Cruz looked strange. He was a bit dazed by Cao Kun's antics, feeling uneasy and thinking that what he was going through was particularly dangerous.

Cao Kun then asked, "Do you know these movies: The Shining, The Ghostbusters, and Ghostbusters?"

Tom Cruz shook his head, completely bewildered: "What movie is this? I've never heard of it."

Cao Kun: "Are you sure?"

The Shining is a masterpiece by horror master Stanley Kubrick. Released in 1980, it is hailed as the world's number one horror film and is a classic in the hearts of countless horror fans.

"The Nightmare" was released in January of this year, and it caused a huge sensation around the world as soon as it was released.

Director Hideo Nakata is therefore known as the new generation's master of horror.

Released in 1984, Ghostbusters was inspired by Hong Kong comedy horror films and used a similar approach, drawing many moviegoers who didn't like horror films to the theaters.

It's so abnormal that Tom Cruise had never heard of these three famous movies.

Cao Kun then asked, "Do you know Kubrick and Stephen King?"

Upon hearing this, Cao Kun noticed that Tom Cruz was looking at him strangely.

After a while, Tom Cruz explained, "Of course, Stanley Kubrick is hailed as the filmmaker closest to God. His '2001: A Space Odyssey,' 'A Clockwork Orange,' and 'Cross' are all classics among classics."

Cao Kun then remembered that although Kubrick was known as the master of horror, he did not only make horror films.

The science fiction, crime, and art-house genres are also filmed exceptionally well.

However, it turns out that this guy also directed the version of "Cross" in this world.

Tom Cruz continued, "Stephen King, the master of horror novels, has his adaptation rights sought after by major Hollywood film studios."

By the way, *The Cross* is adapted from his novel.

After listening, Cao Kun was certain that this world was different from his original world, except that it had the addition of true cultivation and the supernatural.

Horror films, horror novels, and other cultural products related to the horror genre have also shown some deviations.

In other words, the horror-related products in this world simply don't exist in his world.

The terrifying creations of his world do not exist in this world.

"No, it's not that it doesn't exist, it seems to have appeared in another way, for example, by reflecting reality."

Cao Kun added a sentence in his mind.

However, since there is only one case at present, it cannot be completely confirmed yet, and we need to continue to observe.

The car soon arrived at the luxurious Beverly Hills.

Beverly Hills is not just a residential area; it's more accurate to call it a city within a city.

You can find all the amenities available in the city here.

The world's top brands all have stores here.

Of course, the houses here are also said to be the most expensive in the world.

It's no longer just about the value of the house itself, but also a symbol of status and wealth.

Tom Cruz's new home is a true mansion.

Spanning nearly 10 acres, it boasts 18 rooms and various functional rooms, a helipad on the roof, and a beach right downstairs; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it a manor.

Currently, only Tom Cruz and his wife live in this mansion.

However, the servant team consisted of more than a dozen people.

Upon entering this mansion, Cao Kun was also amazed by what he saw.

Strangely, Cao Kun did not sense any yin energy upon entering the place.

It seemed like a normal home.

"Nicole, this is Master Cao."

“Damn it, this is my wife, Nicole Kidman.”

Tom Cruz introduced Cao Kun.

Nicole Kidman is 31 years old this year. She is one of the rare European and American women who doesn't look old even after 30.

European and American women typically have a short blooming period, and Nicole Kidman is one of the few exceptions.

At 31 years old, she stands at a full 1.8 meters tall, with stunningly long legs, a beautiful face, and the charm of a mature woman. It has to be said that this woman, who once amazed the world, is still incredibly attractive.
