Play bone

Blue Enchantress, the name of the flower.

Two hundred and eight blue enchantresses—what kind of allusion is this?

Lu Li really had no idea, so he looked up to Tao Rujiu and Ling Li for help, but all he got were two helpless smiles.

Tao Ling and the others still had to check the guardrails of the underground palace, so Lu Li said goodbye to them and returned to the hotel along the road.When he got to the room and locked the door, he didn't rush to wash up. The first thing he did was to call Shen Xingze.

These days, Shen Xingze is busy with the family business again. He is either socializing at night or exercising hard to consume excess energy.The waiting time for the phone call was a bit long, Lu Li subconsciously licked his lips, like a poor man who was thirsty but couldn't drink water.

When the prompt sounded for about 1 minute, the call was finally connected.

"Xiao Li?"

When this calm and pleasant voice sounded, through the mirror on the desk opposite the bed, Lu Li found himself smiling with relief.

He suddenly felt that he might have been infected, and he became more and more like Shen Xingxuan, who had an inflated desire for control.I can't wait to breathe his breath in every breath of air; every sip of water I drink has his reflection.

"...What's the matter, why don't you talk?"

The unusual silence for a few seconds obviously made Shen Xingze a little concerned.

Thinking of the note that Ling Li handed to him just now, Lu Li felt like a lump in his throat.However, thinking that once he knew that he was going to be in trouble, Shen Xingze would definitely make another big move, which might even affect the normal filming, so he became overwhelmed and chose to remain silent.

"No, it's okay. I just missed you."

"I miss you as well."

Shen Xing on the other end of the phone didn't doubt that he was there, but soon became only full of tenderness and pampering.

------

No matter how confusing the night is, when the day comes, everything still has to return to the old way of following the rules.

Ever since he heard that "ghost story", Gordon's attitude towards Lu Li has become more subtle - he didn't have much to say before, but now he hides far away.But occasionally he would stare at Lu Li in a daze, wondering if he was suffering both emotionally and rationally like Shen Xingze back then.

As for Lu Li, although he was thinking about it all day with the note from Ling Li, he still couldn't figure out what the so-called "Blue Enchantress" meant - there were no similar props in the crew.If there is anything relevant, it will be the Qixi Festival in more than ten days, and someone may send this blue rose at that time.

That being the case, there is only one thing to do, one step at a time, to see what will happen at that time.

No matter whether it is tangled or not, life still has to go on day after day.From the last three days of the first week, several leading actors took turns to start shooting makeup photos.

As the leading actor, Lu Li has more than a dozen outfits alone, each with a different headgear, sometimes with special effects makeup and prosthetics.Director Yu is very picky about every detail, and insists on trying every outfit and every look one by one, even the special effects makeup.

So from six o'clock in the morning until ten o'clock in the evening, Lu Li kept taking off and putting on all kinds of clothes.Several sets of armor weigh more than ten to twenty kilograms, and special effects makeup requires sitting still for several ten minutes or even an hour or two.After putting on makeup, I still have to pose for the camera to take pictures and record videos... Naturally, I am exhausted after a whole day.And this fatigue is just the beginning.

After taking the makeup photos and receiving a week of regular training, the much-anticipated auspicious day finally arrived.

At 8:18 a.m. on August [-], the crew of "Looking for Fragrance" held a launch ceremony in Hailing Studios.Led by several well-dressed actors, all the main creative staff offered incense and worshiped gods, and accepted brief media interviews.From this day on, the tense filming that lasted for more than four months officially kicked off.

Before joining the group, Lu Li always kept in mind the two things that Shen Xingze told him - according to his recent observations, the people in Tianyi have behaved normally so far.The heroine Zhu Qianmiao has a gentle personality, has a good relationship with Lu Li, and is quite dedicated in acting; her assistants are also very dutiful and never cause trouble.

As for Gordon, although Lu Li failed to get closer to him during the training period as he wished, the two of them are familiar with each other after all, and Gordon is still dedicated and doesn't bring his personal emotions into the play, so it's not easy for the opponent to act. It went well.

The first few days after starting up are the running-in period, and the progress is a little slow.From the second week onwards, the efficiency has been significantly improved, and the personnel of various departments in the group have become familiar with each other.

Gordon is the youngest character actor in the crew, and also an artist under Shen Xingxuan.Even if they don't know the relationship between the royal family and relatives, anyone with a discerning eye can see that he is a treasure.So there are many people with active minds who always want to get close to him.

Among them, there is another group of young actors who are similar to his age and are especially loved by Gordon.These young people are basically newcomers in the entertainment industry who are studying in majors or have just debuted. Many of them even came to Hailing for the first time, and they are very curious about everything here.And because they played small roles, they had few roles but they couldn't leave the crew, they sat idle all day and accumulated a lot of evil spirits, so they went out to play with friends and companions at night.

Although Hailing is an eighteenth-tier town, it has all kinds of theaters, karaoke halls, bars and nightclubs.Of course, the most famous is the night market food stalls by the harbor.The nightlife is quite rich.

The urban area is just a tiny place, and nearly [-]% of the population is film and television practitioners.The more times you go out and wander, people from different crews will often bump into each other by accident.I usually look familiar, and I will drink and eat at the same table, and become friends with a few words.

Over time, these fledgling young people from all over the world gradually formed a miniature social circle.They shared with each other their experiences and thoughts of entering the industry, expressed their complaints, and joked about their own crew's anecdotes.

Of course, Gordon was not the founder of this micro social circle, but he was generous with money and a prominent background, and soon became a man of the circle - some admirers and followers, but some people were jealous, In the dark, gossip and gossip are born.

Hailing City is Lu Li's home field after all.The news quickly reached his ears.Worried that problems would arise sooner or later if this situation continued, Lu Li had taught Gordon more than once to be careful and keep a low profile when going out, but Gordon just didn't listen.

Seeing that persuasion was useless, Lu Li started to take another approach - he simply took the initiative to intervene in that young group.He personally asked them to sing and eat seafood, but in fact, he intended to buy the internal eyeliner and supervise Gordon's every move.

In addition, he even restrained Gordon through Shen Xingxuan.It was agreed that before ten o'clock every night, he must take the initiative to come to him to review the script.This trick was the most effective. Afraid of his cousin's "aggression", Gordon had no choice but to report to Lu Li every day.Even Anna joked that Lu Li was wearing the halo of the leading actor, and he was worrying about the life assistant's heart-it seems that the occupational disease may not be cured.

Before I knew it, the shooting had been going on for a whole month.By the time Lu Li came back to his senses, the Qixi Festival on August 28 had already passed safely.No one sent the blue enchantress, but Shen Xing chose to send a full set of seafood buffet to the shooting scene with a big wave of his hand. It was called a reward for the whole team. Only Lu Li knew that this was to please him.

On the third day of the second month, the group ushered in the 27th birthday of the second female lead, Li Zhuhu.

There was no night show that night, and at five o'clock in the afternoon, the AB team all closed their work.The director, producer, several actors and other close-knit core members hosted a banquet at a Cantonese restaurant outside the film and television city to celebrate Li Zhuhu's birthday.

Although there was no filming on the second day, but the director and producer were present, everyone was restrained and didn't even drink a few cans of beer.

After seven o'clock, the banquet was over, and most people were going back to the hotel by car; only Gordon offered to continue eating seafood with a few children.

The director knew that he had a special status, that he was well-behaved and sensible on weekdays, and that he had nothing to do tomorrow, so he nodded and let him live.

The director nodded, and Lu Li naturally couldn't say anything more, so he could only tell Gordon's assistant to keep a close eye on him, and he had to bring him back to review the script before ten o'clock.

Here, Gordon waved his hand and said byebye to everyone, and the others, including Lu Li, went back to the hotel by car.

After washing up, Lu Li dried his hair and climbed onto the bed, putting the day after tomorrow's schedule and script on his lap.All the preparations were done, but after thinking about it again, he decided to do another thing first.

For more than a month, Lu Li kept in touch with Shen Xingze by phone.What's different from the past is that Lu Li often takes the initiative to make calls nowadays.And these unsolicited loves have obviously given Shen Xingze a great sense of security. Even if the two places are separated, the man no longer seems as restless as before.

The serious things that should be talked about have already been exhausted, and what is new is just the small daily routine, which is so trivial that it does not match their identities.But even so, the two of them still chatted happily, like two goldfish with a memory of only seven seconds.

Today's female number two's birthday party is a fresh topic of conversation.That Cantonese restaurant brought back a past event in Shen Xingze's memory.

"I remember when we were filming together, the area around the film studio was quite depressed, and there were no places for entertainment. There was only one restaurant, and this restaurant monopolized the box lunches for the crew. You have to bear with it whether it tastes good or not."

"So you still remember things from so long ago."

With a pen in his hand, Lu Li drew strange patterns on the back of the script.

"But it wasn't a serious restaurant at that time, what was the name... Lihua Grand Palace! It is said that there are nightclubs from the third floor to the top. At the beginning, the layman's boss found a mother Sang to do business through someone's introduction. Unexpectedly, it turned out Someone took advantage of it to blackmail. The boss is not a good person, so he chopped up his mother when he bought it. Later, the Dongchuang incident happened and the store closed down. This Cantonese restaurant was opened later.”

Shen Xing chose to make fun of him on purpose: "How do you know all these messy things?"

Lu Li was quite proud of himself: "I'm still a half-hearted snake, so don't you know about gossip?"

"It's good if you heard it. I thought the crew was not serious and brought you to that kind of place."

"You don't believe in the team you picked yourself?"

Lu Li was secretly delighted to hear that he was smelling of jealousy, and even played the dangerous action of stroking a tiger's beard.

"However, there are quite a lot of nightclubs like this in Hailing now. Maybe next time an actor celebrates his birthday, he will really go to Ktv to sing."

"You'd better be joking." The voice on the other end of the phone immediately became serious, "My friend said that Hailing is doing an anti-pornography and anti-illegal operation recently, and there will be surprise inspections in the next few nights."

Shen Xingze is really not alarmist - Lu Li's stepfather has a relative who works in the Hailing Public Security Bureau, and he mentioned it in private a few days ago, don't go to entertainment venues where there are a lot of fish and dragons. I can't even open my mouth to explain clearly.

Speaking of this, Lu Li suddenly became a little worried: Didn't Gordon go out to play?It wouldn't be such a coincidence to hit the muzzle, would it?

Probably not, he clearly said that he was going to eat seafood.Seafood Street is far from Bar Street, and open-air food stalls have nothing to do with pornography, gambling, and drugs. If you want to check, you also need to check food safety.

But what if Gordon lied?Speaking of which, he has been quiet for almost a week, why did he choose to go out again tonight?

Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just in case.Although he didn't believe that Gordon would mess with those bar girls, but thinking of all the conspiracies that happened within the actors and crew in the past, the more Lu Li thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.

He quickly explained the situation to Shen Xingze, and the two temporarily ended the call.Lu Li turned to call Gordon's cell phone and tried three times in a row, but no one answered.

Given the rift between Gordon and him, not answering the phone probably didn't mean much.Lu Li called the assistant who followed Gordon again, but he didn't expect that the assistant didn't answer either.

There was something wrong with that.

Lu Li didn't dare to be careless, and while getting dressed, he called other young people in the group according to the address book.When I hit the third one, I finally found someone who went out with Gordon to renew the stall.

The young man admitted that four or five of them did go to the food stall on Linhai Road to eat seafood and drink beer.It's just that halfway through the meal, Gordon met people from other crews, and Gordon followed those people to the bar.The little assistant was drunk by them, and is now following them on the way back.

Lu Li thumped inwardly, something was wrong.
