Chapter 147 A Hundred Years Ago [04] True and False, Jiang Ke Gets Angry
The three people came in a hurry and didn't know anything about the crew.
On the way, Goblin used his convenient mobile phone to gain a brief understanding of "Cicada in Winter".
"The investment in this film is quite large, and it is very popular on the Internet." Goblin said enthusiastically, "The male protagonist is a newcomer. He has only debuted for a few years, so you may not know him. But you must have heard of the female protagonist.
"
Song Yiyuan reminded: "Don't count the ancestors behind you."
"oh oh."
Goblin reacted.
The ancestor at the back came to this century less than a year ago and was not interested in entertainment news at all.
Mo Qing immediately dismantled the situation: "I know Si Sheng."
"Ahem." Goblin was choked, patted his chest, and turned around in disbelief, "How do you know about her?"
Mo Qing said: "She has a lot of news and is good-looking."
"……All right."
Goblin thought about it carefully and thought it was quite normal.
What young person doesn’t know Si Sheng?
She is one of the country's leading outstanding slash young people. She has dominated the public's attention countless times in the past year. Every time when they think "this is the limit," she always makes a bigger news.
This person is so popular that I cannot use the word "traffic" to describe him.
"Is it her?"
Mo Qing is quite interested in Si Sheng.
"Unfortunately, no." Goblin spread his hands and introduced, "He is a child actor named Chu Yangyang. He is quite a national figure. He is only sixteen years old."
"oh."
After hearing Goblin's denial, Mo Qing lost interest.
Song Yiyuan suddenly answered: "I heard that she has a bad temper."
"Do you know him?" Goblin asked.
Song Yiyuan said: "I don't know him, but I've heard of it."
Goblin shrugged: "It's okay. Celebrities like them won't come into contact with us unless something goes wrong."
Song Yiyuan was noncommittal.
"I don't know what the story is about. A sixteen-year-old actress takes the lead..." Goblin muttered, turning to the introduction of the film, and was surprised, "Hey, a love tragedy during the war?"
Song Yiyuan said: “I didn’t understand it as soon as I heard it.”
"Let me take a look at the profile."
Goblin turned to the film's introduction again. After reading the introduction, he and Song Yiyuan looked at each other.
"The imagination is too rich." Song Yiyuan commented.
"That's ridiculous, she's a girl with supernatural powers," Goblin said with great disdain. He put away his phone and muttered to Mo Qing, "Boss, don't you think so? Your stories are even more exciting than this."
"..."
Mo Qing raised his eyes and glanced at Goblin extremely coldly.
Goblin was a little confused.
However, from beginning to end, Mo Qing never commented.
*
Soon, Song Yiyuan drove the car to the filming location.
The filming location was a dilapidated house. The crew re-decorated it, but only slightly modified it and did not decorate it into a large mansion.
In the story, this is the place where the hero and heroine find a place to stay in the small town.
However, when Mo Qing stood in front of the house, her eyes changed slightly.
A young man walked out of the door and saw a familiar old car. He had a smile on his face, but when he saw three people standing in a row, he suddenly paused and looked hesitant.
He thought it was three magic sticks wearing Taoist priest uniforms.
Unexpectedly, there were three handsome guys and beauties with looks that could be considered stars. I didn’t know it, and thought they were here to film a movie.
Goblin took the initiative and said: "Hello."
"Hello." The young man nodded to them, and then asked suspiciously, "Are you here to help? Excuse me, who is Goblin, Taoist priest Ge?"
Goblin waved to him: "It's me."
"Hello, hello." The young man felt relieved and immediately came over to shake hands with Goblin. "I am Xiao Wu. I have been waiting for you for a long time."
Goblin was caught off guard by his warm handshake.
After forcing a smile to respond to the young man, Goblin forcefully pulled his hand back.
"This is Song Yiyuan, and the other is Mo Qing." After Goblin introduced the two of them, he said shamelessly, "They are all my helpers."
"Hello, you two." Xiao Wu nodded to the two of them again, and then asked Goblin for his opinion, "Shall we go in and see the drama manager Du first?"
It was obvious that he regarded Goblin as the mastermind.
Goblin nodded: "Okay."
So, Xiao Wu led Goblin, Song Yiyuan, and Mo Qing into the house.
There was filming going on in the house, and there was a circle of people around. Xiao Wu avoided the crowd gathering place, came to a relatively remote room, and waved to Du, the stage manager who was repeatedly giving instructions to the prop team.
The stage manager Du was a young man in his thirties with a Chinese character and a serious expression. After looking at Xiao Wu and the three of them, he explained a few words to the props and then came over.
"Are you talking about the three of them?" Operator Du looked at the three of them and frowned.
With the looks of these three people, it would be fair to say that they are stars.
Taoist priest?
Isn't this a lie?
"Yes." Xiao Wu nodded, "This is Goblin, Taoist priest Ge."
Afterwards, he introduced Mo Qing and Song Yiyuan.
Du Drama Manager nodded perfunctorily.
"I don't know if Xiao Wu has told you," said the show manager Du. "Most of the people in the team don't believe in ghosts and gods. However, accidents happened frequently during this period, and neither the internal investigation nor the police could find any clues, so it was inevitable for everyone to
Suspicious."
Goblin nodded to express his understanding.
Du Drama Manager continued: "There is really nothing I can do to ask you for help. We don't want to cause panic, so we hope that the three of you can do things more secretly."
Goblin: "Yeah."
"We want to arrange for you to join the crew, but we are currently short of a prop master and an extra." At this point, Du, the stage manager, paused and emphasized, "Of course, the salary for the position will be calculated on a daily basis. Other remuneration will be calculated separately."
Wages are settled daily.
This simply moved the poor Goblin to tears.
Song Yiyuan, who was heavily in debt, sighed when he thought about his living expenses these days, and took the initiative to take on the next position: "I will be a prop master."
Goblin also said: "I will just be an extra."
As for Mo Qing, as the head of a department and their immediate superior, they would never dare to assign a position to Mo Qing.
Du Drama Manager ignored Mo Qing and said simply: "Okay."
After saying that, he winked at Xiao Wu.
"This is the props team." Xiao Wu pointed to the props team, introduced it to Song Yiyuan, and then said to Goblin, "Master Ge, I will take you to put on makeup, and by the way, I will explain the situation in detail."
"Okay." Goblin looked at Mo Qing, "Together?"
"Um."
Mo Qing responded.
So, when they left the room, they lost a partner and gained a beater.
The sky was gloomy, the wind blew in the house, and there was a chill in the midsummer. Against the dilapidated and decaying environment, the atmosphere suddenly became eerie.
Xiao Wu shuddered and hugged his arms tightly: "It's not clear on the Internet. Let me explain it in detail."
Goblin: "Yeah."
"Ever since we entered the town, things haven't been going well."
"The accommodation was fine for us at first, but the actress who played the heroine said that she encountered something unclean at night and had to change places at all costs."
"This is just the beginning."
"After we changed her residence, she was fine here, but the crew had another problem."
"The food we eat is not clean, the props are lost or damaged for no reason, and there are accidents during filming. There are endless incidents."
"At first, they were just minor problems. They were tolerated and passed away. No one was harmed. But as time went by, the damage became more and more serious."
"Just a week ago, the actor who played the male lead was sitting on the stairs eating a lunch box, and suddenly he fell down. He was said to have been pushed. Fortunately, he was lucky and only scratched his skin a little."
"Several staff members also encountered similar problems."
"We asked the police to investigate, and installed internal surveillance cameras, but they were of no use. Accidents always avoid surveillance, or affect surveillance and happen again."
"Actually, our crew is saying it's haunted...otherwise I wouldn't ask for help online."
Xiao Wu chuckled and scratched his hair, feeling a little embarrassed.
"What's the frequency?" Mo Qing suddenly asked.
The first time he heard Mo Qing take the initiative to speak, Xiao Wu inevitably looked at her a second time, and then replied: "At first it was once a week, then once every two or three days, and now it's once a day."
Xiao Wu paused for a moment, looking a little troubled: "We are all very scared. If we continue to make trouble like this, someone might really die."
Xiao Wu sighed: "It's a pity that the director is a staunch atheist."
"Ahem," Goblin cleared his throat and said seriously, "So are we."
Xiao Wu had never seen someone smash his own sign before, so he was stunned: "Ah? You are not Taoist priests -"
"Taoist priests also pay attention to science." Goblin said seriously, "So far, there is no theory to support the existence of ghosts and gods."
"Yes, really?"
Xiao Wu licked the corners of his lips and suddenly felt uneasy.
At this time, Goblin said, "Isn't it just a devil? It's all on us." Xiao Wu might be a little calmer.
The more firmly Goblin believed in "science", the more worried Xiao Wu was about their abilities.
You’re not really here to cheat money, are you?
Xiao Wu: QAQ
*
Goblin plays a villager.
He doesn't need much makeup, just put on a set of shabby clothes from a hundred years ago, put on a wig, darken his face, and that's it.
The task given to him is to blend in with the crowd and show off.
He had nothing to do, put on makeup, walked around, and found Mo Qing who was wandering on the second floor.
"Minister, what do you think about the haunting?" Goblin adjusted his wig and asked Mo Qing for his opinion.
Mo Qing raised her hand and brushed it against the worn railing. There was a little dust on her fingertips. She lowered her eyes and gently twirled her fingers.
Afterwards, she replied nonchalantly to Goblin: "We won't know until we meet him."
"This is the first time for this crew to come to Qingqiao Town. They have no grievances with the people here, and the people in the town don't object to their filming." Goblin moved his neck, "We shouldn't make enemies."
Goblin frowned: "He is still an enemy who comes and goes without a trace, like a ghost."
Mo Qing stood in front of the railing, looked at the crowd of people in the yard, and said softly: "It's hard to say."
"ah?"
Goblin was puzzled.
Mo Qing focused on the two leading actors: "Isn't the story they filmed based on the things that are circulating in this town?"
"How do you know?" Goblin was surprised.
"I heard that."
"Oh." Goblin nodded, not doubting that he was there, "That's what happened. I had a few words with the extras while I was putting on makeup, and we happened to talk about this. But this story is not something that is spread around town.
.”
Mo Qing paused and looked at Goblin.
"I heard," Goblin approached Mo Qing, looked around to make sure there was no one around, and then continued, "it was made up by the screenwriter himself, under the guise of 'adaptation of a true story'. The crew came to find him
I asked the locals, but they have never heard of such a thing."
Goblin clapped his hands: "If you think about it carefully, this is not a realistic setting for a girl with supernatural powers! It's not based on you, right?"
"..."
Mo Qing said nothing.
Goblin babbled a few more words, and when he finished complaining, he suddenly realized something was wrong.
"Wait a minute." Goblin licked the corners of his lips, feeling a little nervous. His Adam's apple rolled twice, and he asked hesitantly, "Isn't it you?"
"I haven't read the script."
Mo Qing finished speaking in an understatement, and then walked downstairs.
"Oh." Goblin breathed a sigh of relief.
However, after a few seconds, Goblin was shocked and quickly caught up with Mo Qing: "That's not right. What you mean by this is that it's not something out of thin air?"
"..."
Mo Qing ignored him again.
When Goblin chased him to the first floor, he was suddenly stopped by Xiao Wu and forcibly dragged him to a group of extras for filming.
Mo Qing walked around on the first floor.
After that, she waited in front of a wooden pillar for a while, and when she saw a middle-aged man wearing glasses walking by in a hurry, she suddenly spoke.
"Are you a screenwriter?" she asked.
When Leng Buding heard the voice, the middle-aged man looked impatient, but when he looked up, he saw a stunning figure standing in front of the wooden pillar, and unconsciously pushed up his glasses.
Greed and desire shone in his eyes.
In an instant, the impatience and irritability disappeared, and the middle-aged man walked towards Mo Qing and asked, "Do you have anything to do with me?"
His squinting eyes were really off-putting.
A hundred years ago, Mo Qing had already punched him in the face.
but,
Now is a society ruled by law.
Mo Qing suppressed the emotion of beating the person and said calmly: "Let me ask you something."
Ho.
Quite pretentious.
Middle-aged men often see girls like this who come to their homes on their own. They are just trying to get famous with a little bit of beauty, and they are trying their best to get close to you. I beg you to give me a chance.
Especially the young ones.
The younger you are, the simpler you are.
I thought I was missing an opportunity. As long as I got the opportunity, I could reach the sky in one step and enjoy everything.
However, this is the first time a man has seen someone as beautiful as Mo Qing.
"I'm busy right now and don't have time." The man looked serious, then took out a business card from his pocket and stuffed it into Mo Qing's hand, "Call me after seven o'clock."
When he put the business card into Mo Qing's hand, the man suddenly stretched out his other hand, covered the back of Mo Qing's hand, and touched it very frivolously.
Mo Qing's eyes turned cold.
but--
Mo Qing had no chance to take action.
"Give way and stay out of the way."
Accompanied by a cold and angry voice, the man was suddenly grabbed by the collar. Immediately, the whole man flew out like a kite with its string broken, and fell heavily into the yard one meter away.
