Chapter 24 The crew meets Bai Xinyi again
Because she didn't know what was going on, Qing Yanrou only took the six mountain ghost coins that Qing Yun had blessed. She thought the rest of the magic tools would be useless, so she took a bunch of talismans and followed Bai Yi to the neighboring province.
She had just gotten into Bai Yi's car and left when Chu Tingbai arrived downstairs of her house. Looking at the car that had disappeared from her sight, Chu Tingbai asked the driver to turn around with an expressionless face.
After enduring for a while, I finally took out my phone and clicked on Qing Yanrou's profile picture.
Chu Tingbai: Are you out?
Qing Yanrou came back after a while.
Qing Xiaorou: Yes, I’m going to the neighboring province to do something, what’s wrong?
Chu Tingbai: My aunt is pregnant and I want to invite you to visit her at home.
Qing Xiaorou: Well, it’s about time. Congratulations. I’ll go when I get back.
Chu Tingbai: Okay.
Looking at the message from the other side who was very frugal with words, she couldn't help but complain that it was still the same. Except for the time when Ning Jinghuai's death made him lose his composure, he was always like this.
I wonder if this person will also be cold and frugal with words when he is in a relationship in the future. I couldn't help laughing when I thought about it.
The fantasy drama crew that Bai Yi mentioned was invested by his family. In order to make it more realistic, the director took the entire crew to the neighboring province to shoot the scene.
When the incident happened, Bai Rong, the head of the Bai family, immediately thought of Baiyun Temple where his younger brother was, so he asked his younger brother to find a reliable Taoist priest to go and take a look.
But unexpectedly, Bai Yi actually called a little girl and ran to the scene. Bai Rong was so angry that he called him to come back immediately.
Bai Yi tried to persuade him in every possible way, and finally brought up Elder Jie Yun, which made him feel relieved and let him stay there.
"How is it? Did this crew attract some unclean creature?"
After hanging up the phone with his brother, Bai Yi walked to Qing Yanrou and asked.
"We don't know what the situation is yet. Let's see tonight."
The crew of this fantasy drama is very good at choosing a location. The scenery here is beautiful, and in this era of depleted spiritual energy, there is still some spiritual energy, which is very rare.
This is a primeval forest reserve. I heard that the Bai family used a lot of connections to be able to film here, and they are not allowed to destroy any grass or trees here, otherwise they will be held criminally responsible.
Soon the director and assistant director came over. Although they had already discussed this with Bai Yan, they were still not optimistic about the young master of the Bai family and the girl.
But there is no other way. They have no connections themselves, and the investor is the largest, so they can only try their best.
"Mr. Bai, the crew can't delay any longer."
Bai Yi didn't get annoyed after hearing the director's subtext, but instead asked, "Tell me what's going on?"
"When we arrived two days ago, everything was fine. Nothing happened. Starting from the third day, the crew's costumes were inexplicably destroyed. At first, we thought someone on the crew had sabotaged them, but the costumes were all torn and there were long, thin teeth marks on them, so we thought it was a small animal causing trouble."
"But the room wasn't damaged, so we had to block all the vents and install a camera, but the screen went black and we couldn't capture anything. The costumes were completely destroyed, so we had to suspend filming."
The director sighed deeply after saying this. Several spare costumes were ruined. This was so unlucky.
"Take me to the room where the costumes are kept."
The four of them came to the room where the clothes were stored. This was a temporary mobile cabin they had built. Fortunately, the temperature in the deep mountains was low, so it was not stuffy even without air conditioning.
As soon as Qing Yanrou entered the room, she smelled a pungent odor, a bit like the smell of animal secretions after sex. She frowned and took out a purification talisman to remove the smell from the room.
"What's wrong?" Bai Yi, who didn't notice anything wrong, asked.
"The air is too murky."
"Hey, your talisman is really useful. Now the room is filled with the fragrance of plants and trees. It is much better than air freshener." Bai Yi said with surprise as he smelled the particularly pleasant scent.
After seeing Qing Yanroulu's move, the director and the assistant director felt relieved, thinking that she was not a useless person.
I told you so. After all, the Bai family is the largest investor. How could they not take advantage of the crew? The two directors exchanged reassuring glances.
"Daoyou, is there anything here?"
The assistant director asked cautiously, both afraid that it was there and afraid that it wasn't.
"I've got a rough idea in mind. Let's wait until tonight."
She didn't say that they were unsure, but they had no choice but to wait for night to come.
As soon as they came out of the room, they met Bai Xinyi. Qing Yanrou had an exceptionally good memory, and she didn't care that the ancient jade was stolen by this person last time.
The main reason was that this person sprained his ankle just after getting the ancient jade. He was so unlucky that it left a deep impression on her.
Seeing her on the crew this time, given her fate, she is bound to encounter some "interesting" things in this place.
And looking at her face at this moment, it is obvious that she has suffered a bloody disaster. Tsk, this person is so unlucky.
Bai Xinyi originally wanted to ask the director for leave, but when she saw Bai Yi there, she knew that his family was the largest investor, and her family only invested a small amount, and it was still to squeeze her into the crew.
It was not convenient to ask for leave in front of him, so he prepared to pretend to pass by and say hello to the director.
But when she saw the girl she met at the antique shop that day was there, she immediately lost her composure. "Director He, is this a newcomer? What role is she planning to play?"
Qing Yanrou has a sweet and well-behaved appearance, and the female role she plays happens to be of this type. This person is with Bai Yi and two directors, so she instantly felt a sense of crisis.
"If you have time, memorize your lines and don't run around aimlessly."
Bai Xinyi blushed in embarrassment after being humiliated by Director He, and stood aside.
Director He did not give her any face, and this Bai family was no better than the other Bai family.
He allowed Bai Wenzhang to squeeze his daughter in at the time simply because he couldn't find a better actress, and Bai Xinyi's appearance happened to be more similar to the fourth female role. Anyway, this role didn't require much acting skills, so he might as well give it to him.
But this does not mean that she can do whatever she wants.
While waiting for the four people to leave, Bai Xinyi stared at Qing Yanrou's back with resentful eyes, and her originally sweet face was now invaded by hatred. Her whole face was no longer as sweet as before, but full of gloom.
The looks behind her had no effect on Qing Yanrou. After all, if nothing unexpected happened, someone would be in big trouble tonight.
As night slowly fell, the entire forest began to be filled with mountain fog. The birds that usually loved to sing also fell silent, making the entire forest seem especially quiet.
This abnormality also made the entire crew panic. Director He was the most uneasy. He was afraid that something might happen, so he gathered all the actors and staff in a slightly larger room.
There were many people in the crew, squeezed into the same room, which seemed crowded and noisy, but except for a few leading actors who had some complaints, no one else had any objections.
After all, the entire forest is too quiet tonight, and it feels like a storm is about to come.
Suddenly a woman's scream was heard outside.
