Chapter 80 Chapter 80
The ninth episode of the popular variety show "Born Fearless" was filmed at Qingdao Ocean Park.
Xie Weizhi missed the last recording session due to a flight delay. He arrived on time for today's recording session.
The program team gave him the simplest job - turtle keeper.
He Xianyu was today's tour guide. He brought a group of first-grade students to watch Xie Weizhi bathe the turtle with a toothbrush. He explained, "These green turtles have been listed as endangered species by the International Union for Nature. Children, do you know why?"
The child was curious about everything he saw. He looked here and there, chattering, but he just refused to listen to what He Xianyu said.
Although these children are small, their voices are quite loud. He Xianyu turned up the volume of Little Bee to the maximum and shouted, "Children, be quiet! Brother is Ultraman's good friend."
Sure enough, all the children looked over.
He Xianyu took out a photo of herself and Ultraman that she had photoshopped in advance, and received envious and admiring looks from the children.
Then, he played another video. In the video, Ultraman Tiga made a cross with his hands and fired the Specium Ray: "Believe in the power of light, Ultraman will always be by your side. Hello, children. Brother He Xianyu is my good friend on Earth. You must listen to him and complete today's study tour in the aquarium happily."
The children shouted "OK" in unison.
The appearance of Ultraman brought unexpected results. He Xianyu successfully led the children to visit the turtle museum.
"Children, now we have come to the Jellyfish Museum. Jellyfish are magical creatures in the ocean. They have unique shapes and beautiful colors. Next, let's welcome Director Han of the Jellyfish Museum with applause." Tour guide He led the applause.
Amidst warm applause, Han Cheng appeared on stage in a pink jellyfish costume, singing and dancing to the music:
“I am like transparent glass, a jellyfish, a little jellyfish.
It looks like an octopus and an umbrella, a jellyfish, a small jellyfish.
Soft and boneless, jellyfish, small jellyfish.
I move freely, jellyfish, jellyfish, little jellyfish."
In order to get the most star stickers from the children, Han Cheng tried his best.
Tour guide He held back his laughter and followed Director Han to visit the jellyfish.
These jellyfish are light and graceful, dancing in the water like a dream. Just like every life in this world, they are always moving forward, floating or sinking with the waves.
…
We came to the last exhibition area. Behind the giant glass, colorful fish were swimming happily.
"Look, there's a mermaid!" The child's exclamation attracted everyone's attention.
When the mermaid swam closer, He Xianyu felt as if struck by lightning.
I saw Yan Yan shaking the fat on his belly, with his face pressed against the glass, greeting the children.
Brother, do you really want to work so hard? Are you sure it won't leave a psychological shadow on the children?
One child wondered, "Why is this mermaid different from the one in the picture book? Why does she look a little weird?"
Is this more than just "strange"?
He Xianyu was sweating profusely, trying to maintain a friendly smile on his face, and taught: "Every fish has its own special features. We must learn to accept different mermaids."
——
Maybe it was because the air conditioning in the aquarium was turned on too high; maybe it was because the variety show shooting came to a temporary end and He Xianyu was relaxed; maybe it was because the non-stop schedule for more than a month finally made his body unable to bear it. That night, He Xianyu fell ill.
The first person to discover He Xianyu's abnormality was his assistant Zhong Xiaoyin.
There was no schedule for the morning. At noon, Zhong Xiaoyin brought lunch to He Xianyu. After knocking on the door and calling but no one answered, he used the room card to open the door.
He Xianyu is still sleeping.
Zhong Xiaoyin walked closer and found that he was not sleeping well.
He Xianyu's brows were slightly wrinkled, with a faint dark blue tint under his eyes and an abnormal blush on his cheeks. His originally rosy lips were now pale.
Zhong Xiaoyin immediately went to call Ji Zhen.
After hearing the news, Xiao Qinghe hurried to the room where He Xianyu lived. He raised his hand and gently stroked He Xianyu's forehead.
He Xianyu has a fever, and it's quite severe.
He Xianyu felt hot all over and then felt a chill. He opened his eyes and wanted to speak, but found that there was a fire in his throat, and his whole body was weak and limp, and even breathing was painful.
"Xianyu, you have a fever, so take a rest today. I'll go talk to the director." Xiao Qinghe took the wet towel handed to him by Ji Zhen, wiped He Xianyu's cheek, and then moved down to wipe the sweat off his neck.
He Xianyu's skin was originally fair, but because of the high fever, his skin turned pink, and his neck was all bright pink.
Zhong Xiaoyin handed over the antipyretic medicine.
Xiao Qinghe carefully half-lifted He Xianyu up, fed him some medicine, and said to Ji Zhen, "Go get a doctor. Make sure you take good care of him."
Being an actor is sometimes a job that cannot be decided by one’s will. For example, right now, Xiao Qinghe is worried about He Xianyu’s illness, but he has to go back to the set because he cannot let hundreds of people wait for him.
The work of actors is related to the progress of the entire crew. As long as other staff members are in place and the arrow is on the string, the actor cannot back down. Even if a family member is sick, he cannot leave the crew.
Today we are going to shoot the scene where Xiao Gui gets sick with cold poison. But the key character is absent due to illness, so this scene will definitely be postponed. For now, we can only rehearse the other scenes of Zhang Mingtao and Xiao Qinghe.
In the evening, Xiao Qinghe was about to call Ji Zhen to inquire about the situation when he saw He Xianyu coming to the set with the help of Ji Zhen.
Xiao Qinghe couldn't believe it, and strode towards them, angrily asking Ji Zhen: "Why did you take the initiative to bring Xianyu here?"
Xiao Qinghe was always pleasant in front of outsiders, and it was rare for him to get angry in public.
He Xianyu grabbed Xiao Qinghe's hand and explained in a weak voice, "I asked to come here on my own initiative. I took a fever-reducing injection and I feel much better now. I can come to work."
The salaries of the filming team, actors, venue rental, equipment rental, logistics costs - including transportation, food and accommodation, etc., basically all these expenses need to be calculated on a daily basis. Money is burned every day.
He Xianyu didn't want the progress to be delayed due to his personal reasons.
Xiao Qinghe touched his head. The fever had subsided a little, but how could he film with such a sickly look that would make him faint at the slightest gust of wind? "Stop fooling around. Go back and rest!"
"Brother, I've actually been worried about how to act out the scene where the little ghost has an attack of the cold poison. I think my current state is just right." He Xianyu pinched the hem of Xiao Qinghe's clothes and shook it, "Brother, let me try."
This was not the first time He Xianyu acted like a spoiled child to Xiao Qinghe. But this time, Xiao Qinghe felt a dull pain in his heart. He was also an actor, and he knew that actors had to insist on completing their work even if they were sick. However, the person who was sick this time was his younger brother, his favorite person. How could he not feel distressed?
Xiao Qinghe hesitated for a long time, and once again gave in: "When you can't hold on any longer, be sure to tell me."
He Xianyu nodded.
[After escaping from the tomb, the three were injured and hid in a small cave to recuperate.
The little ghost had a very yin constitution, and in this extremely cold and gloomy underground tomb, his cold poison unsurprisingly broke out.
In his sleep, a chill penetrated his bones through his skin, and the little ghost was shivering with cold. Even if he curled up into a ball and hugged himself tightly, it was of no use.
His heart was aching, as if being pierced by a sharp blade again and again, the pain was so severe that he had no strength to resist. He covered his chest and gritted his teeth to endure it, but an unbearable groan still escaped from between his teeth.
Qu Mufeng was sleeping like a dead pig. Only Song Jin, who was still in a light sleep, noticed the abnormality of the little ghost. He patted the little ghost on the shoulder and said, "Little ghost, what's wrong?"
The little ghost slowly opened his eyes. The pupil of his right eye turned into a terrifying blood red, like a blood moon in the dark night, emitting a strong resentment that made people shudder.
"Oh my god!" Song Jin screamed in fear, goose bumps instantly covering her entire body, "What's wrong with your right eye?"
The little ghost moved his hands, which were covering his chest, in front of his right eye. He turned around with difficulty, not wanting to pay attention to Song Jin.
When he was four years old, he became a subject of evil magic experiments. Although he was given the right eye, the cold poison that came with it made his limbs as cold as ice and he was in excruciating pain every time he got sick.
Song Jin extended his index finger and poked his shoulder, "You have a cold poison attack. Call me brother and I will treat you."
The little ghost looked down on this low-class Taoist priest from the bottom of his heart. He was conceited and always asked others to ask him for help, but he would never ask others for help.
Although they had only been together for a short time, Song Jin had already figured out Xiao Gui's personality. This guy was a typical person who was hard on the outside but also hard on the inside.
But no matter how tough he is, he is just a child.
Song Jin lifted up the little ghost's ice-like body, held it in his arms, then bit his finger and smeared the blood on the little ghost's lips.
The blood of a pure yang body can drive away evil spirits, scare away evil ghosts, and also suppress cold poison.
The red light in the kid's right eye quickly faded. He slowly reached out and hugged the source of heat.
This was the first time he had felt warmth in his 18 years of wandering.
Although Director Chen gave a high evaluation of this scene afterwards, He Xianyu's mind was completely confused when he was filming it, and he relied on the remaining trace of willpower to hold on.
At one o'clock in the morning, his fever rose to 39 degrees again.
He Xianyu's consciousness was almost blurred, and he could no longer tell whether he was filming or reality. He leaned towards the source of heat and muttered to Song Jin, or Xiao Qinghe, "Brother, it's so cold."
Xiao Qinghe's eyes were full of heartache. He reached out and hugged He Xianyu tightly, then lowered his head, rested his forehead against his forehead, and said softly: "I'm here, I've always been here."
He Xianyu couldn't remember what happened after that. He only remembered that warm embrace and that extremely gentle voice.
"I'm here. I've always been here."
