In August, the city is filled with the fragrance of sweet osmanthus. The streets of Dawu Dynasty gradually have more stalls selling cakes and lanterns, and the atmosphere of the Mid-Autumn Lantern Festival is already evident.
The cinema on Song'an Street is still crowded with guests.
The private rooms were opened for reservation the day before yesterday. When noble ladies such as Xie Wan and Sun Qinghe heard the news, they immediately asked for reservations.
Three mini halls for ten people and one small hall for twenty people were fully booked in less than half a day.
Two new films were released on this day, one was "Searching for Deep Sea Behemoths" whose trailer was released three days ago, and the other was the fourth screening of "The Little Chef of Shengjing".
When the trailer for "Searching for the Deep Sea Monster" was first released, it caused a lot of discussion in the East City, and even caused nearby shops to panic, fearing that the monster on the screen would break through the screen and run out like the popcorn monster before.
This time, the store owner did not refute the rumor and allowed it to spread.
On the day of the premiere, the number of people queuing to buy tickets was not as large as at the premiere of "Falling Flowers", but it was much better than Lu Yao had expected.
Kuba stood behind the ticket counter, watching Chen Xiaoliu and Li Chunhua checking tickets.
A tall woman in black with her hair tied up in a bun like a man checked the ticket from Chen Xiaoliu, walked up to Kuba, stopped and winked at him.
Kuba was startled, took a step back, and looked puzzled, but said nothing.
The person who came was Die Qi. She arrived in Liangjing at night yesterday. It was less than half an hour before curfew and the cinema had already closed.
After days of traveling, he was covered in dust and rested as soon as he found a place to stay.
However, the cinema is the hottest topic in Liang Jing recently. There is no need to ask specifically, as many guests in the inn are talking about it. Some people even heard rumors about the cinema and rushed from outside the city to see it.
Dieyi looked Kuba up and down and couldn't help but reach out to touch his hair, "Did you really cut your hair?"
Ku Ba turned his head and looked towards the hall. He didn't see Lu Yao and Fu Chi, so he took Die Qi a few steps further into the corridor and asked, "Why are you here?"
Die Qi shrugged, her face full of interest: "I came to see you."
Kuba looked fierce: "Why are you looking for me? Don't you have anything to do in the pavilion?"
Die Qi said seriously: "You sent so many rare things back, and you said that the female shopkeeper is deep-minded and has endless tricks. I am afraid that you are too stupid to beat her, so I am kind enough to help you."
Kuba rolled his eyes and pushed her: "Don't mess with the shopkeeper, I'm on good terms with her. If you have nothing else to do, go back quickly, you don't need help here."
Die Qi was really surprised.
In such a short period of time, Kuba's bad temper seemed to have improved a lot, and he could even say nice things to people.
Could it be that he really has fallen in love with the owner of this shop
"What are you thinking about?" Ku Ba glared at Die Qi and thought her eyes were strange.
Die Qi shook her head, "Nothing. By the way, you have been in the city for many days. Do you have any news about Xiao Jiu? He sent a letter saying that his legs and feet were injured during this mission and he can't return to the pavilion for the time being. The main reason I came out this time is to pick him up."
Kuba was stunned for a moment, "Is that what he said in the letter?"
Die Qi understood: "Where is he?"
Ku Ba looked around the hall again, but didn't find Ye Xiao. He pretended to be regretful and said, "He's not here. He may be in the lounge. I'm at work and can't go over."
Die Qi was surprised: "He's here too?"
Didn’t you say your leg was injured
Kuba couldn't suppress his gloating and said mysteriously, "Go ask him yourself."
At this time, a voice came from the screening room, and the premiere of "Searching for Deep Sea Monsters" was about to begin.
Die Qi threw the ticket in her hand and said, "Since you are together, I don't need to bother looking for you. I have bought the ticket, so let's go watch the so-called movie first."
In the screening room, Die Qi found the seat corresponding to her ticket number. Not long after she sat down, she discovered that the people around her were holding some rare food that she had never seen in Mu Shui City, and the air was filled with sweet and pleasant smells.
Just as she was wondering, Kuba came in and stuffed a bucket of hot popcorn, a glass of cold orange juice, and a flowery hot dog into her hands.
At this time, the safety knowledge and advertisements had just finished broadcasting, and the main film "Searching for Deep Sea Monsters" began.
Someone beside him said excitedly: "It's started, it's started!"
Die Qi looked at the screen and saw the blue sea, silver-white waves hitting the shore, and the sky was gray. She couldn't help feeling a little nervous.
There was some excitement in the theater; compared to the brutal and terrifying trailer, the opening was too peaceful.
The narration is inserted at the right time to begin introducing the members of an expedition team and tell the audience that the purpose of their trip is to explore the secret lives of some giant beasts in the deep sea.
Die Qi held a grilled sausage in his left hand and grabbed a handful of popcorn with his right hand, crunching it like a hamster. The food was good, but is this the movie that everyone praises
She listened to the stories of "The Best in the World", "The Little Cook in Shengjing" and "Meeting You Again in the Time of Falling Flowers" yesterday, and she was very interested.
The many furnishings and arrangements in this cinema were truly astonishing. The huge wall in front made her curious, and the sounds surrounding the entire hall were also extremely strange. But was today's story a little too boring
Not interesting at all.
The introduction took more than a minute, and then the group got on the boat with their equipment and headed for a sea area marked on the map. They were looking for an aquatic creature called "killer whale" and wanted to observe their hunting process.
As the loud sound of the engine turned rang out, a string of white waves left from the stern of the ship, heading all the way to the vast ocean.
Die Qi gradually sat up straight, with unconcealable shock in her eyes.
Is this a boat
Other viewers were also whispering that the boat in the picture was very different from the wooden boats they had seen before.
There were some strange patterns on the white hull, and the material did not look like wood, yet it could run so fast without oars.
Almost in the blink of an eye, the group of people ran from the dock to the center of the deserted sea, and the camera gave a panoramic view from above, which was even more amazing.
The expedition team was very lucky. Before reaching their destination, they encountered a group of killer whales, or to be more precise, three killer whales that were hunting. They were chasing a humpback whale with its calf.
A killer whale suddenly popped its head out from the edge of the boat. The round-headed little creature opened its mouth, revealing two rows of teeth, and made a "weeping" sound.
Die Qi stared at the screen, with a half-eaten hot dog hanging down, and forgot to eat the popcorn.
There are such horrible creatures in the sea. Are these people crazy? They dare to touch them and are not afraid of being dragged into the water.
In another screening room, Qin Sanwei sat in a corner, also looking at the expedition members playing with the underwater monster with horror in his eyes, his heart almost stopping with fear.
The other people in the screening room were not much better than him.
