"Just tell Brother Shen." Mu Chuchu smiled mischievously. "As for Hua Chen, there's no need. He's seen plenty of ghosts since he was a child, one more won't make a difference."
Lan Hai felt that Mu Chuchu was deliberately causing trouble, but she had no evidence, so she had no choice but to agree. Under the pretext of bringing Shen Yi to familiarize himself with the environment, she led Shen Yi to meet Lan Qiao.
Shen Yi was terrified when he first saw a ghost, but when he thought about the movie, he gritted his teeth and agreed to cooperate.
Seeing that Shen Yi's legs were trembling with fear, Lan Qiao asked in surprise, "Aren't you afraid of me?"
"I'm scared." Shen Yi turned his head away, not daring to look at Lan Qiao's bloodied and mangled face. "But I'm even more afraid of dying."
He was already in his thirties and needed a chance to get ahead. He felt that this might be his chance to turn his life around.
He doesn't believe "The Demon Fox's Tale" won't be a hit, having acted alongside a real red-clad female ghost!
Mu Chuchu admired Shen Yi's decisiveness, and the three of them discussed how to proceed with the filming.
Lan Qiao's existence cannot be revealed to too many people, so Lan Hai needs to personally oversee the filming. The rest of the crew doesn't need to come in; they can just wait outside.
Lan Hai is the director, and the entire crew has to listen to her. Everyone quickly prepared the costumes for the three main actors and then watched them enter the haunted house.
Mu Chuchu went to hide in her spot first, and then Shen Yi and Hua Chen entered the haunted house under Lan Hai's filming.
Shen Yi plays Huo Ziyuan, a rare exorcist in modern society and a rich second-generation. His family had forbidden him from doing dangerous things, but according to the plot, Huo Ziyuan was still drawn by an invisible force to the haunted house, where he rescued a bewildered little fox demon who had lost her memory from the clutches of a red-clothed ghost.
Mu Chuchu plays the fox demon Bai Nuo, while Hua Chen plays Huo Ziyuan's good brother, a rich second-generation with the ability to see ghosts but no real power, who can only follow along and make a fuss.
In reality, Hua Chen's physique is like a walking thousand-year-old ginseng, which matches the character setting in the script. To save trouble, Lan Hai let him play himself, and his character's name in the drama is also Hua Chen.
Two large men entered the room, and the door behind them suddenly slammed shut.
Hua Chen jumped up in fright and instinctively grabbed Shen Yi.
However, remembering that she was still under the camera, Hua Chen tried her best to maintain a smile and said dryly, "Well, it's not that scary..."
"Don't speak, there's something here." Shen Yi spoke solemnly according to the script, taking out the fake talisman prepared for him by the props team. The yellow talisman paper had a few patterns randomly drawn on it with red ink, and it had no effect of exorcising demons.
Hua Chen turned pale with fright, inwardly marveling at Shen Yi's superb acting skills. Anyone who didn't know better would think there was a real ghost here!
So, Hua Chen mustered all her energy and, following the script, went to Shen Yi and recited her lines, "Zi Yuan, don't be afraid. The fortune teller said I have strong yang energy. Wait here, I'll clear the way for you."
After saying that, Hua Chen strode out.
Lan Hai quickly pushed the camera to catch up, so no one noticed the look of pity in Shen Yi's eyes when he looked at Hua Chen.
Hua Chen walked all the way to the second floor of the stairs. After carefully confirming that there was no red-clothed female ghost on the stairs, she stepped onto the first step.
