The script given by the program team is very thick. It is rolled up and feels heavy in the hand, and it feels very nice.
Director Song opened it and found that except for the first two pages with content, the rest was blank.
Looking at the content on those two pages again, there are only a few scenes, and apart from giving the location and plot outline of each scene and explaining some rough character settings, everything else is just random writing.
Director Song had a headache after watching it: "Who wrote this script? It seems like a joke."
Shi Xi read the script carefully, and his fingertips slid over the locations on the script: "We can refine the plot and add our own lines, but we absolutely cannot shoot in the order arranged in the script. These scenes need to be disrupted."
"Is it necessary to make it more difficult for yourself?" Liu Ziyu retorted: "Completing the game is the first priority. Shooting according to the script sequence is the simplest and quickest way. Filming a movie is just one element. Do you really think we are going to make a micro-movie?"
After Liu Ziyu finished speaking, he realized that everyone was looking at him, and their eyes were all strange. He felt a little numb: "Why are you all looking at me? Did I say something wrong?"
"Since we are going to shoot this, we have to be serious about it," Director Song tapped the script and said as a matter of course, "I can't continue shooting this kind of thing. I have to change the script."
Lu Xiu also nodded and said seriously: "I will follow the director's arrangements. I don't know if we can escape this cycle. If we can't escape, maybe we will die in a certain cycle. I want to cherish every minute and every second of my life. Even if I shoot for survival, I hope that the pictures I shoot are beautiful. Even if I encounter an accident, I can leave a good work for the world."
Shi Xi narrowed her eyes. Her starting point was more rational than Lu Xiu's. "Also, we definitely shot in order last time, but the whole team was wiped out. We entered the loop and have no memory, but the vengeful spirits are very likely to remember everything. If you were the vengeful spirit, and you knew the order of our shooting in advance, would you not make some arrangements in advance? It would be safer for us to disrupt this order."
Liu Ziyu was dazed again. He was once again passively immersed in the role and was a little unaware of where he was.
As an experienced person, Ji Mingxu knew Liu Ziyu was confused when he saw his expression, and patted his shoulder sympathetically: "Xiao Liu, from the perspective of the guests, this script was given to us by the program team. There are definitely NPCs lurking in these locations. The iron rule of survival in this variety show is that we can't be led by the program team. We must disrupt the shooting order. Do you understand?"
"As for changing the script and making the movie, my attitude is the same as Director Song's," Ji Mingxu curled his lips, "Either don't make it, or if you want to make it, you have to do it seriously to have fun."
Liu Ziyu was brought back to reality by Ji Mingxu, and he nodded in a daze.
Qiao Qing was also brought into the play, but her participation was low. She was distracted as soon as Ji Mingxu spoke, but she was very happy: "Will Director Song really treat it as a formal movie? I actually participated in Director Song's movie in a variety show. My God, I support Director Song to change the script!"
"Before changing the script, we need to understand the shooting environment first," Song Zhenbao rolled up the script and pointed to the stairs: "There is also a second floor here. We have too many places to investigate. Let's get started."
The group investigated the cabin again, and this time they did not split up.
The first floor was almost entirely public space. They walked through it quickly, found no useful clues, and went straight to the second floor.
There are bedrooms and a study on the second floor. The study is the most exquisitely decorated place in the entire building, with a large collection of books and an antique piano.
Ji Mingxu walked to the piano, pressed a few keys casually, and nodded: "This piano is good, it is the most expensive thing in this wooden building."
"There are some camera equipment here, all covered in dust," Lu Xiu walked towards the camera equipment placed in the corner. He suddenly stopped and said in confusion, "None of these cameras have covers."
Shi Xi heard this and looked over: "Isn't it still being filmed?"
Lu Xiu took a deep breath: "I'll go check."
After Shi Xi put forward this hypothesis, no one had the heart to investigate other places and all looked at Lu Xiu.
Lu Xiu walked behind the camera, his face suddenly changed. He raised his head, and a cold reflection flashed across the lens: "All these cameras are filming, and there are two bloody handprints on them."
Shi Xi thought for a moment and said, "Check the historical records."
Lu Xiu checked them one by one: "It's very clean, there is no historical footage."
Shi Xi: “Turn them off.”
Lu Xiu acted quickly: "Okay, I deleted the video in it."
Ji Mingxu smiled. He looked at the cameraman hiding in the closet and said, "I'm sure the director is crying. The scene where Actor Lu walked towards the camera and checked it with his face must have been so handsome, but now he deleted it himself."
Lu Xiu spread out his palm: "I also removed the battery."
Ji Mingxu gave a thumbs up: "He is a ruthless person."
Shi Xi was reading a newly discovered document at her desk. She shook the script in her hand at everyone, and the pages rustled: "I found the script of "No One Survives in the House". In the script of the vengeful spirit, no one of us survived."
Everyone gathered around and saw that the character column of the script had photos of all of them, with the roles they played and their final outcomes written on it, which all ended in death.
Ji Mingxu exclaimed, "Xiao Shi is really amazing. His prediction was correct. If the filming of The Wraith is finished, we will all die."
"One more thing," Shi Xi said, "The shooting location and order of this script are consistent with our script."
Ji Mingxu smiled and said, "Very good, you even predicted correctly that you would have to shuffle the order, you are indeed a master player."
Lu Xiu adjusted the frame of his glasses and found some new information: "But in the script of The Wraith, Director Song and I are the male and female protagonists."
NPC Atong had never had a sense of existence, but at this moment he silently said: "I am actually playing the role of cannon fodder."
Ji Mingxu patted his shoulder and said, "Don't be discouraged. Cannon fodder is also very important."
"Yes, cannon fodder is also very important." Director Song glanced at the time and said, "It's getting late and I'm hungry. I need to find a quiet and safe place to revise the script. You guys go get something to eat first. After dinner, we'll officially start filming "Back in the House Again."
Ji Mingxu laughed so hard that people downstairs could hear him: "Are you really going to use this name?"
"It's pretty good." Director Song urged, "Hurry up and make the most of your time."
The stairs in the wooden building are a bit narrow, and they make a creaking noise when you walk on them, which sounds scary.
As the group was talking and walking downstairs, a very clear shutter sound was suddenly heard in the house. Because the sound was too brief, it was impossible to tell where it came from, but everyone stopped.
Ji Mingxu looked around suspiciously: "Is it the vengeful spirit that is secretly filming us? Did you hear where the sound came from?"
Liu Ziyu shook his head: "No."
"Ah!!" A scream suddenly came from upstairs. Liu Ziyu was already nervous, and the scream frightened him so much that his heart skipped a beat.
He looked back and found that Atong, who was walking at the back, was being dragged to the second floor, with only a pair of legs exposed. This scene was really shocking, and Liu Ziyu was so scared that he screamed.
Shi Xi ran to the second floor without saying a word.
Lu Xiu followed closely behind.
They went up to the hall and saw Atong lying on the ground, motionless. The strange thing was that there were many photos scattered around him. The protagonist in the photos was Atong from various angles, and the background was the wooden house.
On Atong's arm, there was a blood-red seal: "Kill completed."
The light above the head flickered a few times as if it had poor contact, adding a bit of horror to this "crime scene".
Shi Xi said: "These are stills of Atong in the movie The Haunted Ghost. This seal is the signature of the Haunted Ghost."
Lu Xiu: "Being signed by a vengeful spirit means death."
That's how the game is played.
At this time, a projection appeared on the wall of the living room on the second floor and began to play the video of their activities in the cabin.
Ji Mingxu got goosebumps all over his body and cursed, "Damn it, these vengeful spirits are too rampant. They even showed us their filming progress at the crime scene. Are they trying to tell us that they are watching us all the time?"
After a burst of noise, the video paused and Atong's face appeared on the projection without warning.
"He is the first one." A voice processed through a voice changer appeared in the room.
The next second, the faces of Shi Xi, Liu Ziyu and Qiao Qing appeared on the projection at the same time. The lights above their heads went out completely, leaving only the pale glow of the projection.
The voice sounded faintly from above: "The next one is among you."
The atmosphere on the scene was too creepy, and Qiao Qing was so frightened that her eyes turned red. She felt that she had never been so immersed in a role on the set.
Liu Ziyu was frightened twice in a row, and now he really felt like he was being watched by a vengeful spirit. His teeth were trembling, and he collapsed and asked, "Are we filming a reality show? Can the photography teacher come out for a walk?"
"It's like this for the first time. You still need to get used to it," Ji Mingxu asked Shi Xi, who was also a newcomer: "Shi Xiao, what do you think?"
Shi Xi looked at him: "I'm so hungry, I want to eat."
"..." As expected of you, Ji Mingxu asked: "Any other thoughts?"
时晞笑了笑,短暂地脱离了角色,她心说,别的感想就是……在荒郊野岭玩得那么大,节目组真的没问题吗?
她不会录着综艺,还得兼职驱邪吧,那可是另外的价钱。
