When Su Lingzhi read the script, she wanted to play the role very much. She had to kill the male protagonist in real life, and also get married and kill the male protagonist in the play within the play. Play is like life, and life is like play.

The wedding lasted for two nights, and the scene for the assassination scene was also ready. Director Zhang had a trial shoot with Su Lingzhi and Qin Shen. This movie was shot entirely on location in a bamboo forest.

The heroine Xu Ruyi in the drama "Blade and Soul" is a sword spirit. After being separated from her master, she was picked up by Wulin's young leader Wuyou. The great weapon turned into a weak and pitiful little thing. The two fell in love with each other over time and promised to be together for life.

However, after the wedding, the owner of the sword spirit arrived on the moon. She turned her love for Wuyou into hatred, but she didn't expect that Wuyou fell in love with her sword spirit. She wanted Wuyou to taste the pain of being betrayed by his beloved, so she ordered the sword spirit Xu Ruyi to kill Wuyou.

Only by killing the male protagonist can the sword spirit become one with the sword.

According to the script, the sword spirit's life mission is to become one with the sword and be absolutely obedient to its master.

Therefore, on the wedding night of Xu Ruyi and Wuyou, the wedding dresses were changed into masked nightgowns, and the assassination of the new husband was a seven-minute long drama, from the initial fight, to familiarity, to recognition, questioning, betrayal, and killing, with the emotions progressing layer by layer.

The hero Wuyou always thought that the girl he loved was a quiet and weak lady, but he didn't expect that she was a vicious sword spirit who wanted to be killed by everyone.

In the end, the sword spirit killed the newlywed husband Wuyou.

Wuyou asked, "Why?"

The sword spirit replied, "I want to go home!"

Before Wuyou died, he asked, "Ruyi, have you ever loved me?"

The sword spirit replied, "What is love? The sword spirit is a dead thing, it doesn't understand."

Wuyou died in the year he loved Sword and Soul the most.

The core of this movie revolves around the wedding of Sword and Spirit. From the perspective of Sword and Spirit, the film enters the bloody martial arts world where everyone has their own ulterior motives and plans.

This scene was filmed first with a literary drama. The two had just come out of the mood of getting married, and soon they were going to face killing each other. Literary drama is what Su Lingzhi and Qin Shen are best at.

But after shooting several takes, Director Zhang was not satisfied.

The emotions were very strong and the eye acting was good, but he always felt that something was missing and he couldn't put his finger on it. The screenwriter thought he was too picky. Editor Yun followed the crew throughout and felt it was perfect after watching the clips.

Qin Shen and Su Lingzhi also came over to look at the rough cut, and Qin Shen said, "There is no spark of killing each other."

Director Zhang snapped his fingers, "Yes, that's the kind of spark, it's not enough."

Su Lingzhi's understanding of the play is different from Qin Shen and Director Zhang. "But the sword spirit is a dead thing, it doesn't know love, how can there be love? She just follows the master's order to kill Wuyou."

Qin Shen said, "She loved Wuyou wholeheartedly when they got married, so how could she have no feelings at all when she killed him?"

Su Lingzhi said, "The sword spirit itself is a dead thing. It loves Wuyou because she has lost all her memories. She doesn't know that she is a sword spirit. She is used to relying on Wuyou in their daily lives. But the master came and awakened her memory as a sword spirit. In her world, the master is everything. Her destiny is to return to the sword."

Qin Shen stood firm in his opinion, "Xu Ruyi married Wuyou because she loved him. Even if she obeyed her master's orders, she is a human being deep down in her heart, not a weapon."

Su Lingzhi said calmly, "What kind of feelings can a sword have? Returning to the sword is like returning home. It is more important than being free from worries."

Qin Shen's eyes were firm, "She is Ai Wuyou."

Su Lingzhi, "..."

The male and female protagonists have different understandings of the play, so the performance feels a little off. To be fair, Director Zhang believes that Su Lingzhi and Qin Shen's acting skills are equally matched, and they can carry over each other's roles.

Director Zhang is a very dictatorial director. You have to act in whatever he wants.

But he is quite tolerant of those with good acting skills. "Play both states, okay? We'll see how the film turns out then."

Yun editor cursed him in his heart, "What a lunatic!" She wanted to adjust the script according to Su Lingzhi's understanding. It was really annoying. Your wishful thinking was slapped in my face.

Isn’t it just that they seem to be in good shape, so you want to take a few more shots with different emotions?

Su Lingjing accepted the offer and did not object, "Okay."

Qin Shen looked at her coldly. The more they loved each other in the play, the more indifferent they were outside the play. "Su Su, the murder weapon has a spirit, and the spirit has feelings. This is the soul of "Blade and Soul". What you are resisting is Xu Ruyi's love for Wuyou, or Su Lingzhi's love for Qin Shen?"

Su Lingzhi was speechless after being asked this question for a long time, and finally lied, "Xu Ruyi may love Wuyou, but Su Lingzhi likes Gu Zhen."

Qin Shen lowered his eyes, hiding the pain in his eyes, looking at Su Lingzhi's cold and sad back in night clothes, and said softly, "I don't believe it."

It was already past four in the morning when the filming of this literary scene was finished. Su Lingzhi had been up all night for three nights and was suffering from neurasthenia. Zhao Xuelan accompanied her back to the hotel to rest. The film and television city was more than 70 kilometers away from the urban area of ​​Jiangcheng. In order to save time, Su Lingzhi stayed in a hotel for the past few days. When she returned to the hotel, she removed her makeup, did not even take a shower, and slept soundly.

Su Lingzhi is the female lead and has a lot of scenes to play. She often has to stay up late for this drama. The director put all the scenes together and filmed the night scenes together, which was very hard for Su Lingzhi. The makeup for costume dramas is complicated, so she often gets off work at three or four in the morning and has to get up at six or seven in the morning to put on makeup.

Director Zhang was a little guilty because he had concealed the change of male lead from the producer. He was afraid of hurting the producer's canary, so he finally felt guilty and gave her half a day off. Su Lingzhi slept until eleven o'clock, and got up to put on makeup to catch up with the afternoon scene. It took time for Yun to revise the play, and Qin Shen also had to catch up with the notices in the past three days. He left the crew in the morning, and Su Lingzhi and others played against each other in the afternoon.

Su Lingzhi was absent-minded while putting on makeup. Gu Zhen said he was going on a six-day business trip to Northern Europe. He was gone for ten days and there was no news. She was a little uneasy. Zhao Xuelan gossiped with her, "Gu Jialiang really arranged a play for Lin Fangxu and Su Wan, and the team is directed by Chen. The filming starts today. What a coincidence, it's all in the film and television city."

"Ancient costume martial arts theme?" Su Lingzhi joked.

"Yes."

Su Lingzhi, "She is really outrageous. She wants to compete with me for everything. Where does her confidence come from?"

Zhao Xuelan said, "They are both famous directors. Qin Shen and Lin Fangxu have similar acting skills and both have very strong supporting casts. Director Chen is very good at training actors, so don't underestimate him."

"She's dreaming about beating me in the professional field!" In her comfort zone, she didn't regard Su Wan as an opponent.

Instead of caring about the drama between Su Wan and Lin Fangxu, it is better to focus more on Gu Zhen.

She persistently sent messages to Gu Zhen every day, but to no avail. Gu Zhen and her were in a complete cold war, as if he had disappeared from the face of the earth. Su Lingzhi felt guilty and embarrassed. How could she comfort him?

She sent another text message to Xu Fei, but Xu Fei didn't reply. Su Lingzhi looked worried. It was so hard for her!

There is a big Buddha like Qin Shen in the crew. After being killed, he will come back to life. In reality, there is a big Buddha like Gu Zhen. I want to kill him but I can’t. It is really difficult to conquer him.
