The kitten trembled violently, holding its little head that was not yet ready, and shyly arched it into Xu Xiaozhou's arms.Thunder roared outside, Xu Xiaozhou instinctively lowered his head and rubbed the cat's furry face.There were several wet spots under the cat's eyes, and he was so distressed that he subconsciously kissed those tear stains with his lips.

Sangsang choked up a few indistinct throats, and buried his head into the neckline of Xu Xiaozhou's pajamas that were slightly spread out.The cat's head was too big to fit in, but he still tried his best to push it in. Xu Xiaozhou thought of something, pulled a small blanket to wrap the mourning, and carried the cat out of bed and walked to the window.

Sangsang trembled even more, and the whole cat turned into a ball.Xu Xiaozhou felt the trembling in his heart. In fact, he was also afraid. He didn't know where this fear came from. He had lived for 20 years, and he had heard thunder that was more violent than this, but it was the first time it was so deep. feeling terrified.

The curtains were lifted, and the rain was blown in by the wind and hit the face. The boy raised his hand and closed the window tightly. With a bang, the window smashed into the window frame, and the thunder outside seemed to be covered with a soundproof jacket. The madness that directly hit the soul weakened a lot, and Sangsang cautiously poked his head in Xu Xiaozhou's arms, a flash of lightning came down, followed by a loud thunder, the kitten trembled, and immediately began to cry again.

Xu Xiaozhou didn't know what to say, he could only hug the kitten tightly, the room with the curtains drawn was completely plunged into darkness, he groped to the edge of the bed and sat down slowly.Gently patted Sangsang's head.

"Do you know the dream I had just now?"

The kitten was only focused on crying, as if it didn't hear him whispering at all.

"I think that dream is very real. What happened that night?"

There was only the sound of the kitten weeping in the room. Xu Xiaozhou didn't know that the concussion cat's emotional ups and downs would not aggravate the condition, so he stopped talking and didn't ask any more questions.The boy sat silently on the bed and listened to the thunder and rain outside. After a while, he reached for the phone under the pillow and turned on the screen.

03:44

Lightly tapped Chen Jingfeng's dialog box with his fingertips, but hesitated before pressing the voice call button.

A violent thunder struck again, and the night in the mountain hut suddenly appeared in my mind. The man carried him across the roof of the rainstorm to the next door, but after seeing the figure in the house who fell to the ground, he fell in love with him. kitten thrown out.

Xu Xiaozhou's fingertips trembled and he pressed the call button.

The waiting sound lasted only two seconds before it stopped abruptly. There was the rustling sound of cloth rubbing on the other end of the phone, and the man's sleepy voice came, "What's the matter?"

Xu Xiaozhou felt as if his throat was blocked, he opened his mouth, but he couldn't speak, he just let out a difficult sound.

The man seemed to turn over and sit up from the bed, his voice became clearer, "What's wrong? Why are you hesitating? What's wrong with Sangsang? Is the condition getting worse?"

The kitten in his arms moved, raised his paws to wipe away his tears, and was still panting softly.Xu Xiaozhou followed its back and said in a low voice: "It's raining, it's thundering, and the cat is a little scared."

"Ah..." The man's voice softened, as if he was relieved, but also full of pity, "The kitten seems to be very afraid of thunder. It was on the mountain before, and it rolled around on the ground. It's so pitiful."

"Hmm." Xu Xiaozhou silently swallowed that sentence back, "What are you doing?"

Before the man could reply, he sighed again, "Oh yes, I'm sleeping."

The other end of the phone let out a low laugh, Chen Jingfeng laughed for a while and said suddenly: "Let's make a video, show me our fat man."

"it is good."

The hut with a bedside lamp turned on was shrouded in a dim and warm yellow light. Xu Xiaozhou lay on the bedside, wrapped the funeral in his arms, and answered the video call from the man.

The light on Chen Jingfeng's head was also dim. The man's hair was messed up and he was wearing pajamas. He was obviously haggard after being woken up in the middle of the night.As soon as he connected the video, he saw Xu Xiaozhou and Sangsang in the same frame, and sighed, "As the person loses weight, so does the cat."

Xu Xiaozhou didn't speak, but was moved.Mr. Civet had never seen the video before, felt the novelty, seemed not so sad, stretched out his little paw and patted the screen tentatively.

The man laughed, "You can't hit me, you're so angry, you just can't hit me."

Xu Xiaozhou couldn't laugh or cry, "Can you be more childish?"

"You need to coax a child like this." The man's voice was very gentle, but his smile was evil, "Fatty, what a big cat, it looks like it was frightened by two lightning strikes, can you lose the cat?"

The kitten turned cold all of a sudden, raised its front paws and launched a wave of big moves on the screen. You don't need to look at the screen to know that a lot of scratches have been added.Chen Jingfeng laughed, "I heard that a certain stupid cat was not conscious when it was a human being, and even slapped itself with a concussion, tsk... What about a civet cat, this IQ is simply a sequelae of cerebral thrombosis."

"Roar—" Sangsang was completely angry, the hair on his arched back exploded, and he was about to pounce.Xu Xiaozhou picked it up and said calmly, "Calm down, friend, you really can't hit him."

Chen Jingfeng smiled, "Hey, you are really angry, I'm so scared."

A certain cat was so angry that its belly swelled and stared at the camera. Xu Xiaozhou finally couldn't help but said: "It's almost done. I'll see you in the crew in a few days. I'm afraid it will scratch your face with a slap. I can't afford it."

Chen Jingfeng laughed twice, the man changed his position on the bed and sat, suddenly remembered something, and said: "Don't check it, our fat man is pathetic enough. Do you have anything to do these two days?"

Xu Xiaozhou was slightly stunned, "It's okay, what are you going to do?"

"Then work hard, sir, and don't torment the kitten." The man's voice softened, "I'll find a car and a driver, and you will set off tomorrow and drive over here. Don't worry too much, just take a walk and rest, I guess three No matter what happens, the sky will come."

Xu Xiaozhou's eyes widened upon hearing this.

From here to the production crew, it took at least four or five provinces to drive all the way?

Probably because he was born in a small-scale peasant economy, poverty limited his imagination, and he was so worried about consignment two days ago that he never thought of such an operation.He hesitated for a moment, "It's going to take thousands of kilometers, and your friend's car is also worn out...and you have to drive back..."

Chen Jingfeng smiled, "Then what can I do, Mr. Civet, a fat man, is afraid of heat, and he is so stupid that he beat himself out of the concussion, what can I do, I am also very desperate."

The kitten next to him became quiet after hearing this.Chen Jingfeng suddenly muttered, "That's right", the video screen flipped to face the ceiling, the man got out of bed, kicked his slippers and walked away.

"Where are you going?"

There was no one to reply, the sound of the cabinet door opening and closing, and the sound of footsteps came back again.

Chen Jingfeng picked up the phone, and the camera was facing the bed, which was covered with many colorful tin cans.Chen Jingfeng said with a smile: "Fatty, look, I bought you a lot of canned food with new flavors, waiting for you to come to the set to recuperate."

Kitten froze.

"Oh, by the way, I also bought you a new toilet, which is very modern and fully automatic. It will automatically rotate after you go in and use it, and your cat litter will be filtered out cleanly, and the poop will automatically be flushed into the sewer. You self-righteous earth civet don't need to dig there, okay?"

Before Sangsang could express his opinion, Xu Xiaozhou was stunned and said hesitantly, "That thing costs four or five thousand..."

The era superstar smiled gently, "Little Qian."

"..."

"As long as Pangpang can scratch me less, the medical expenses I saved will be returned."

The kitten meowed twice, and scratched its belly restlessly.Chen Jingfeng asked, "What did it say?"

Xu Xiaozhou's eyes softened, he stretched out his hand to touch a fat man, and said in a low voice: "It said it didn't scratch you too hard."

At noon the next day, Xu Xiaozhou had just packed his luggage when the driver Chen Jingfeng was looking for came to the door.The uncle is a northerner, tall and generous, and very enthusiastic. After chatting with him for a few words, Xu Xiaozhou realized that the other party was a driver before Ritian. Later, he quit to open a snack bar at home.

He didn't have the nerve to ask the uncle how much Chen Jingfeng gave this time, but after hearing how much the former boss was generous, Xu Xiaozhou estimated that it was an outrageous figure, probably more expensive than a cat toilet.The uncle helped him carry his luggage downstairs, and he just hugged the cat and followed behind like a little princess. When he came out of the corridor, he saw a black nanny car, which was very new and clean.

Xu Xiaozhou was speechless, and the uncle took the initiative to explain, "The big star probably bought a lot of cars in the past two years. This car was just bought by him when I resigned the year before last. I checked the mileage in my hand today, and I didn't drive it much at all. "

"..."

"That's right. The company's nanny car is good enough. I also can't understand that he insisted on buying a nanny car back then. It really should be left in the garage." The man put his luggage into the trunk and said with a smile, "Get in the car." Well, I have prepared a lot of food according to the boss's instructions, both for people and cats, if you see if it doesn't work, we will go to the supermarket first."

Xu Xiaozhou said quickly: "It's okay, it's okay, you don't have to be too polite."

He got into the car with the cat in his arms. It was really spacious inside, and the back seat was full of snacks for Sangsang.The kitten twitched its nose and let out a cry of excitement, Xu Xiaozhou quickly stopped it, "We can only eat snacks after eating the nutritious food, don't think too much about it."

Sangsang groaned twice, cursing.

Xu Xiaozhou found a place to sit down, and whispered to Sangsang before the uncle got in the car.

"Do you feel that you are being taken care of by Chen Jingfeng?"

"Mi—" Meow thinks that you are being adopted, so Meow just follows along.

It really runs much faster than imagined.I drove leisurely all the way, and when I was tired, I found a nearby small town to eat and sleep. A certain cat gnawed on snacks and grabbed toys in the car. It got stuck on the day before the start, and finally arrived at the film crew.

The driver sent Xu Xiaozhou to the gate of the film and television city, and smiled honestly, "My boss told me that I can't deliver it to the gate of the film crew. You are a newcomer and you are too high-profile. You may have to walk a while inside. Please work hard on yourself."

Xu Xiaozhou was moved, and thanked warmly: "Thank you for taking care of me."

"You're welcome."

The uncle helped him take the luggage out of the trunk, and glanced at Sangsang in his arms, "This cat is really well-raised, it's smooth and smooth."

"Meow--"

Xu Xiaozhou smiled, "It said thank you."

A person pushed the box and walked into the film and television city.Sangsang was very sensible and didn't want to be hugged. He lifted his buttocks and shrank himself on the top of the trolley case, feeling quite comfortable being pushed.Just as Xu Xiaozhou took two steps inside, he saw a familiar figure.

Chen Jingfeng and Xiao Wu were waiting not far away, and Xiao Wu took the initiative to trot over to take the box. Chen Jingfeng smiled, "Both the little cat and the fat cat have worked hard."

Sangsang snorted.

Xu Xiaozhou was a little surprised, "Didn't you say you would join the group at night?"

"Director Bai wanted to chat with me again today, so he came in early." Chen Jingfeng said, "By the way, go to see the director directly, be more polite."

Xu Xiaozhou nodded, "OK."

The scale of the crew of "Ban Xian Jiang" is obviously different from that of "Hundred Demons". There are more than a dozen large and small interior studios. Very close, right between the two sheds, very convenient morning and evening.It is said that Bai Qiyan was drinking tea with the producer inside, and Chen Jingfeng sent a text message to confirm that it was not convenient for them to meet.

Xu Xiaozhou felt that he had joined the crew, and he didn't dare to breathe loudly.

"Director Bai is very strict, very very strict, completely different from Director Wang." Chen Jingfeng said: "When he finds that your understanding of the role is a little bit off, he will immediately point it out severely. And you will find that no matter how hard you try to figure out the script, there will always be a discrepancy between you and his thoughts. Although the script and the characters have different opinions, as someone who has experienced it, I have to advise you. If you are not sure that your understanding of the characters is completely If you have crushed Director Bai and can speak convincingly, then it is best to figure out his thinking mode."

Xu Xiaozhou nodded cautiously.

He heard Chen Jingfeng and Bai Qiyan make a phone call to give a thought report before, and the most common sentence he said was - "Yes, I will think about it."

"Director Bai likes people who work hard with an open mind. Of course, the most basic prerequisite is that you have the so-called basic comprehension that meets his standards." Chen Jingfeng sighed, "Come on, although you don't expect Director Bai to give you a thumbs-up, But as long as he feels qualified after using it, your future will be very bright."

Xu Xiaozhou nodded again.

He started preparing after he decided to take over the filming of this scene. There were few scenes in the second half of "A Hundred Demons", so he has been reading the original work of "Ban Xian Jiang" repeatedly in the crew, read the original work twice, and went to the forum to read various fan creations and comments about the characters by fans of the original work. There are a lot of character appreciation and analysis, and Xu Xiaozhou even went through every fan art drawn by several famous painters.I got the script when "A Hundred Demons Travel" was about to finish. After I got it, I read the script at least four or five times, and compared the deleted and modified plots with the original.As far as the preliminary preparation is concerned, although the time is not long, he is calm in his heart.

Xu Xiaozhou suddenly remembered something, "I haven't done the makeup yet."

"Yes, because the old man has always been dissatisfied with the details of the clothing, and he has been changing back and forth, and the funds are burning." Chen Jingfeng said with a smile, "I saw the boss who was obedient this morning with a pale face, and I think he is about to go crazy."

"Uh."

"But Xue Tun's costume was ready yesterday, I guess he will let you take a look at it later. Ah, I haven't seen it yet, I'm curious."

Xu Xiaozhou was also curious, but more nervous.Xue Tun is a villain. The description in the script is——"Smiling without affection, with a white face and red lips, the flames of hell are burning in the depths of the red eyes, with a flick of the robe, no sentient beings lament under the heartless sneer."

It sounds amazing, but if you look at it separately, with white face, red lips, and red pupils, it's easy to become a vampire with the aura of killing Matt.

"The director is inside, and the producer is also here." Chen Jingfeng whispered to the door, and then knocked on the door.

"Come in."

The man pushed open the door and smiled, "The boat is here, just got off."

Xu Xiaozhou saw Bai Qiyan head-on, and sitting next to him was a man who was about the same age as him. He was relatively short in stature and looked gentle.

Bai Qiyan pointed to Xu Xiaozhou and said to the people next to him: "This child is the actor who plays the role of Blood Tunnel."

Xu Xiaozhou quickly bowed, "Hello, director, and producer."

The producer laughed, "My surname is Wang."

"Hello, Mr. Wang."

The producer patted the stool next to him, "Come and sit, Jing Feng, you can sit too. I have watched Xiaozhou's movie lead film, and the explosive power is very good. I hope you can play Xue Tun well. A while ago, Qi Yan told me that Xue Tun should I was taken aback by using a newcomer, but your leading film is really brilliant."

Xu Xiaozhou was a little cautious, "Thank you teacher, I will try my best."

Bai Qiyan said: "I don't really have any requirements here. You go to get your makeup done in the afternoon. If there are no major problems with the costumes, the main actors will take a photo of the makeup tomorrow. Oh, yes," he suddenly remembered, "The blood-swallowing martial arts show There are so many, you have to be mentally prepared. I heard Wang Yichi say that your martial arts is pretty good. The martial arts used by your previous crew is mine. This time it is also him and the crew. Are you okay? You have worked with him before Is it going well?"

Xu Xiaozhou was taken aback when he heard the words, and the big brother's idiom-filled praise instantly appeared in his mind, and he nodded quickly, "The teacher took good care of me, and I will still try my best to cooperate this time."

"Okay..." Bai Qiyan seemed to have doubts about the word "care", he paused, and said, "He may also have to see your level, and then we have to discuss how to shoot the action according to your level." Adjust. If you settle down, you can talk to him first, and he will explain it to me later.”

Xu Xiaozhou nodded again and again, "Okay."

When he came out of that room, Xu Xiaozhou felt so nervous that his back was sweating, Chen Jingfeng laughed muffledly beside him, "Director Bai doesn't seem to believe that Wu Zhi can like you."

"That's right, it's not the first time Director Bai has used him for that guy's picky temper." Chen Jingfeng sighed, "It's good, he likes you so much, he will definitely speak well for you."

Xu Xiaozhou whispered: "I don't want merit, but I want no fault."

I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, Xu Xiaozhou and Chen Jingfeng took two ends of a corridor in the dormitory arranged by the crew.Compared with the hotel, the dormitory conditions are indeed worse than 01:30. The elevator is old and narrow. Although there are matching bathrooms and toilets in the room, the space is very small. The air conditioner in the room is yellow and it operates loudly.

As soon as Xu Xiaozhou entered the door, he saw a cat toilet in the corner of his room that was out of place with the whole room, like a hatching egg full of technology, very modern.There is a cat climbing frame next to the toilet, and several round cat futons are spread underneath.

"Oh, my house has the same thing." The man said casually.

Xu Xiaozhou was silent. He pressed the mourning cat's litter, and then pressed his own mattress. He felt that the quality of life of humans and cats was very different.

"By the way, you asked me to help you investigate." The man closed the door casually, with a serious tone, "I have found out the clues."

Xu Xiaozhou put down the half-opened box, "Say."

"The situation of monitoring and saving is not very good. The rehearsal has gone through several times, and it took too long to procrastinate. In the middle, when encountering video sharing, there was a section missing for about an hour. But in the existing There are already a lot of things in the record." The man took out his mobile phone and opened a short video stored in the album, which lasted for more than two minutes.

"This is intercepted."

Xu Xiaozhou nodded and looked at it seriously.The picture is blurry and flickering.When the video played for more than ten seconds, a person came out of the room. From the figure, he knew that it was the young man in charge of the equipment. Because his left and right shoulders were not high on one side, he was easy to recognize even though he was from the back.In the video, he was walking towards the elevator while talking on the phone. Just ten seconds after he disappeared at the elevator, the fire door suddenly opened, and a person wearing a mask walked into the room with his head down.

"Looking at this fully armed posture and gait, there must be hands and feet, and there will be no legitimate reason to go in and do business."

Xu Xiaozhou nodded.

"The problem is that the video didn't capture his face. This person is wearing a baggy denim jacket and a hat, and he seems to be deliberately slumped when he walks. It's hard for me to be sure it's He Chenran." Chen Jingfeng paused, "To be honest, if If you don't deliberately try to play He Chenran, I think anyone on the street can do it."

However, Xu Xiaozhou said firmly, "It's him."

"How did you get it?"

The boy's black eyes stared at the screen, seemingly calm, but there seemed to be something hidden behind the calm.When the video played to the end, he pulled the progress bar back a little bit, stopped, and said slowly: "This person didn't deliberately collapse while walking, but used it to relieve the pain. He Chenran has severe rheumatism, class S and Almost everyone in Class A knows that sometimes he can't even stand up if it rains for several days, so after his debut, he occasionally goes to the north for vacation. Have you seen him go to any island? No. "

Chen Jingfeng was taken aback, "Why didn't I know he had bad joints."

"Only the trainees know that last year was the year when he was the most ill. He seemed to have recovered a lot after his debut, so no one mentioned it. I remember very clearly that there was a torrential rain for half a month before the debut stage last year. The company The underground passages outside were soaked in water all day long, and the shoes and socks were all wet after walking there. The trainees didn't go out to eat for a long time because of this, they all ate nutritious meals at the company. During that time, Shen Ran was so painful that he could hardly get up On the bed, I gritted my teeth and held tears every day during training. It rained heavily on the day of the rehearsal, but then it stopped suddenly. Five days later, He Chenran was in full condition to participate in the assessment, while I was lying on the bed..."

Xu Xiaozhou said and turned off the phone, his eyes drifted away, he seemed to be a little empty, and he didn't know what he was recalling.

"That year's debut evaluation was discussed by everyone for a long time. They all said that it was God's will. God's will suppressed Xu Xiaozhou, and God's will wanted to fulfill He Shenran."
