The film crew was rushing to meet the deadline, and Lin Yang and the others were busy filming as soon as they arrived in Lizhen.
"All departments are ready. Scene 1 of the first act of the Deep Mountain Circus, action!" Zheng Linzhou instructed the departments over the walkie-talkie, striking the starting paddle.
Lin Yang, dressed in smart armor and battle robes, held the reins in his left hand and lashed the horse's back with his right, shouting, "Giddy up!"
The sound of horses' hooves rang out, followed by a group of soldiers.
They marched in a mighty procession, raising clouds of dust.
This scene only requires a shot of General Yang Zhi leading his soldiers westward from the air, with a drone rising high in the sky and following their direction.
The scene wasn't particularly difficult or long. Although Lin Yang's back was aching slightly, she managed to hold on.
"Cut—" Zheng Linzhou closed the clapperboard, picked up the megaphone and shouted in Lin Yang's direction, indicating that it was time to stop.
"Whoa—" Lin Yang pulled back on the reins, squeezed his legs together, stopped whipping, and tried to stop the horse from moving forward.
The people behind him successfully pulled their horses back, but for some reason, Lin Yang's horse seemed to have lost control. No matter how hard they pulled on the reins, it kept rushing forward.
Ahead lay the depths of a forest, with no staff setting up scenery or machinery.
If the horses were allowed to wander in, the dangers would be unimaginable to Lin Yang.
"Whoa—" Lin Yang was a little anxious, and tightened his grip on the reins.
But this action further enraged the horses, who were already in a frenzied state.
It quickened its pace, tossing its head as it rushed deeper into the forest.
"Come back! Lin Yang, come back!"
"Sister Lin, Sister Lin, what's wrong!"
"Quickly, stop the horses! There's been an accident! What are you all standing there for?!"
Behind him were the anxious shouts of the film crew.
Unfortunately, the faster the horses moved forward, the fainter their voices became.
Faintly, Lin Yang seemed to hear Nie Wei's voice, "Ah! The horse has gone crazy! Brother Xu, I'm so scared, I don't dare to perform the rest of the circus act!"
"Snow Hare, stop! Whoa—stop!" Lin Yang kept pulling on the reins to try to stop the horse from moving forward.
The horse she was riding was carefully selected by her; it was clearly the most docile among the herd. How could it suddenly go crazy?
Who exactly tampered with her horse, trying to kill her?
The deeper the snow hare ventured, the sharper the thorns in the forest became.
The snow hare seemed to have lost the ability to feel pain. Its body was covered in blood from being cut by thorns, yet it still charged forward with all its might, showing no signs of fatigue.
Lin Yang wasn't in much better shape. Her legs were clamped between the horse's sides, her trousers were torn to shreds by thorns, and her legs were covered in wounds.
After an unknown amount of time, and without knowing where it was, the snow hare's speed gradually decreased.
Where Lin Yang stood, towering trees covered the view with their dense foliage, preventing any light from penetrating and creating an eerie atmosphere that enveloped her.
"Snow Rabbit, stop..." Lin Yang was dizzy from being jostled on the horse's back, blood was seeping from her legs, her lips were pale, and her lips moved weakly as she insisted on saying this to Snow Rabbit behind its ear.
The snow hare was intelligent, or perhaps it was tired from running so far, and it actually obediently stopped its horse.
As soon as it stopped, its strength suddenly dissipated due to its injuries. The horse's hooves buckled and it knelt down, its body leaning forward, which caused the unconscious Lin Yang to fall off its back.
Lin Yang tumbled off the horse and rolled forward several times due to inertia.
Before she completely closed her eyes and passed out, the scene of her accidental fall from horseback last time flashed through her mind.
"You bitch, go to hell!" The voice sounded familiar, echoing in my mind.
Lin Yang's vision went black, and she completely lost consciousness.
