Chapter 160
Bai Roushuang was helpless: "Then what are you doing here today? Continue to chase that girl?"
Song Ping smiled and said, "Whether I pursue her or not is secondary, but she is Wuyou's reincarnation after all. Since we have met, I have to take care of her."
"How? Did you meet just now?"
"We met," Song Ping sighed, "but she was quite wary of me."
"Why?"
"She probably thought I was here to...take advantage of her."
Xu Shulou paused and asked: "What do you do in the human world?"
"Boss."
"Speak human language."
"..." Song Ping touched his nose. Over the years, his seniority in the cultivation world has become higher and higher. It has been a long time since anyone spoke to him like this. He actually missed it. "Well, I run a company. I am an envoy sent by Wuchen Island to connect with the human world. At the beginning, it was mainly because I wanted to help my junior brothers and sisters and nephews if they wanted to enter the human world in the future. Later, the scale of the company became bigger and bigger. After meeting Wuyou's reincarnation, I acquired an entertainment industry. I originally wanted to help her, but she... thought I was going to take advantage of her. If it doesn't work, I'd better avoid her to avoid upsetting her."
Bai Roushuang was stunned: "You haven't learned a single bit of your senior sister's skills."
"Hmm?" Xu Shulou was puzzled. "What's my ability?"
"Nothing," Bai Roushuang tried to answer perfunctorily, "Senior Sister, go and take a stroll first. I have to teach Second Senior Brother a lesson."
"Okay." Xu Shulou gave a hug to his long-lost junior fellow apprentice, left the two to discuss relationship issues, and went to wander around the crew curiously.
Although the crew had not officially started work yet, they were already in a state of chaos. The staff came and went in a hurry, almost bumping into her. Xu Shulou dodged to the side and heard one of them asking anxiously, "Where is Lao Yu? Don't let me down at this critical moment!"
"I don't know either," another person scratched his head, "He didn't even answer the phone."
"Keep fighting! We agreed to have him help check out the actors who came to audition these few days and pick out a few who can do the fighting scenes. How come he disappeared the moment I turned around?"
Xu Shulou looked at the two people's backs. She always felt that there was a vague and strange atmosphere lingering around here. She traced the source among the crew and found a small detached building.
There are many such single-family buildings near this film and television city, which are convenient for the crew to live in. The environment is also quite good. There are lush trees growing between each small building. Whenever you look out the window, you can only see greenery and cannot see the movements of the residents of the opposite building.
Xu Shulou stopped a staff member with a tag hanging around his neck and said, "Hello, who lives in this building?"
The man turned around and took a look, then pulled out a memo from his phone: "These buildings are all reserved by the crew of 'Stepping into the Immortal World', but the crew members haven't arrived yet. Right now, only martial arts director Yu Xing lives in that building."
Martial arts director Yu Xing? Could it be the old Yu that disappeared from the mouths of those two people just now?
Xu Shulou was concerned: "Which room does he live in?"
The staff member looked her up and down teasingly, and his tone became ambiguous: "First room on the left on the second floor, what's going on?"
"Thank you." Xu Shulou didn't notice the change in his tone at all. He asked for the information he wanted, thanked him, and turned to walk towards the small building.
"Tsk tsk," the staff behind her smacked their lips, "If you want to get a role, you can't rely on martial arts directors. This beauty is really desperate and is trying all kinds of methods."
He thought about it, looked around, and followed.
Xu Shulou arrived at the door of the small building. Although he was not very familiar with modern door locks, he opened the lock skillfully after fumbling for less than a minute.
Walking all the way to the first room on the left on the second floor, Xu Shulou pushed open the door and immediately felt a strange movement in the room. She raised her hand to touch the wall, feeling it move a little and then suddenly stop as if startled by something.
The movement disappeared so quickly that an ordinary person would probably think it was just the pulse in his palm beating for a moment.
What on earth is this?
Xu Shulou stepped on the floor covered with a thick blanket and seemed to realize something was wrong. After thinking for a while, he leaned down and put his ear to it.
When the producer and coordinator of the crew entered the room, they saw a young girl, who was prostrating herself on the ground, seemingly listening to something.
"This, this is... who are you? What are you doing?"
Xu Shulou climbed up calmly and brushed off the dust on his body: "Yoga."
Xu Shulou has been cramming a lot of modern vocabulary in the past two days, and has quickly mastered the skills of using various food delivery apps. His progress is rapid.
“…”
"You call that yoga?" The two were speechless for a moment. "No, why are you in Lao Yu's room? Do you know him? Do you know where he went?"
"I don't know him," Xu Shulou shook his head. "He's missing. Have you called the police?"
"Why call the police?" The coordinator said helplessly, "Beautiful lady, you don't know, Old Yu is like this, he likes to disappear every few days after drinking. If he wasn't good at his job, we wouldn't have hired him. If we call the police, wouldn't it be a waste of police resources?"
The producer frowned: "Who are you?"
"I'm here to apply for a job," Xu Shulou suddenly had an idea, "your martial arts director just happened to be missing, I can take over temporarily..."
"Applying? Great!" The producer interrupted her with shining eyes, "Come on, I have a script here, read a paragraph and try it out first."
"Audition?" Xu Shulou refused, "I can't act."
"It's okay, just try it, don't be nervous." The producer took out a stack of A4 paper from his bag and quickly searched for something in it.
Even the coordinator couldn't help but look sideways: "Aren't you a little too eager?"
The producer rolled his eyes and muttered, "Can you blame me for being anxious? Every character in the script is a beauty. Where can I find so many beautiful but not popular beauties willing to guest star?"
He found two pages of paper and stuffed them into Xu Shulou's pockets: "Come, read this line first."
Facing his earnest eyes, Xu Shulou couldn't refuse his kindness and started reading a paragraph: "My dear, do you think my dress is beautiful? I specially made it for you... Wait, which character's line is this?"
"Don't worry about which character it is, just read it with some emotion."
Xu Shulou could only bite the bullet and continue his audition: "I don't care. You have been accompanying sister Yugu these days. You must accompany me today, otherwise I will ignore Brother Lu again. Parentheses, there should be a cute and naive expression here, pouting and stamping feet, parentheses."
“…”
Her expressionless performance shocked both of them.
After a moment, the producer came to his senses and commented: "It's so bad."
“……”Xu Shulou appreciated the other party’s straightforwardness.
"The line is 'otherwise I will never talk to Brother Lu again', why did you pronounce it as if it was 'otherwise I will kill Brother Lu'? It seems that you were not modest when you said 'you can't act'," the producer looked at the vase beauty in front of him with a headache, "The male lead is your beloved husband, not the enemy you want to kill."
Xu Shulou shrugged: "Art comes from reality. Maybe I really did kill him."
"Honestly, this is the first time I've seen someone read a line so awkwardly."
"It's a problem with the lines," Xu Shulou said without any shame. He raised his hand and threw the two fluttering A4 pages, hurting the producer. "I'm serious. Will anyone really watch this? Aren't you afraid of losing all your money?"
“…”
Xu Shulou obviously knows how to quickly offend HR when applying for a job.
