Those Years I Employed Non-Humans as Actors

Chapter 17: Short video

Views:

On the country's largest video website, an account named "Welcome to the House of Depravity" quietly uploaded a video of only ten seconds.

The video was tagged with the popular #reverse# tag, and it gained a little bit of traffic by riding on the popularity of the tag.

After Pan Lin finished his day's work, he lay on the bed tiredly, wanting to watch some short videos to relax his tense nerves before going to bed.

After swiping and swiping, a video with only more than a hundred likes was pushed to his main interface.

Except for friends and relatives, Pan Lin never watches videos with very few likes. He is not willing to waste time if they have less than 50,000 likes.

He should have rowed away, but the girl in the white cheongsam in the video was so beautiful. It is not the appearance of a popular Internet celebrity, but a kind of beauty that is pitiful and makes people feel protective.

Seeing that the girl was so uniquely beautiful, Pan Lin was willing to watch the video for a few seconds.

I saw her trying hard to twist the cap of the half bottle of ketchup. It looked like she was struggling, which made people want to reach out and help her.

This is not another video showing affection, single person Pan Lin thought sourly. For the sake of the beauty, he could watch it for a while longer, but as soon as a man appeared in the camera, he would immediately change the video.

"Oops!" The girl in the white cheongsam shook her hand, and the ketchup bottle fell on the marble countertop. It shattered with a "pop" and the ketchup flowed out.

The girl in the white cheongsam panicked and wiped the countertop with a paper towel, leaving ketchup all over her palms.

"Leave it alone, there is broken glass inside, how can you just wipe it with your hands?" came a somewhat domineering and willful female voice.

A gorgeous and fashionable woman in a red dress entered the camera and grabbed her hand in a white cheongsam that was stained with ketchup: "Let me see if there are any scratches from the broken glass."

Logically speaking, the woman in the red dress is not absolutely beautiful, but her aura is exactly the opposite of that in the white cheongsam. Against the backdrop of the soft temperament of the white cheongsam, the woman in the red dress becomes even more gorgeous, with a kind of stunning beauty.

The quality of this video is too high. Considering the appearance of these two people, it shouldn't only have more than 100 likes. Pan Lin thought.

Before the video finished playing, he couldn't help but double-tap the screen to like it, adding to the number of likes on the video.

At this time in the video, the woman in the red dress grabbed the hand of the white cheongsam and moved closer to see if there was blood in the red ketchup.

Approaching the ketchup, the girl in the red dress gently licked her lower lip and said softly: "It's a shame if you spill it, why don't we eat it."

She leaned over and wanted to eat the ketchup, and Pan Lin was very excited to see it.

Suddenly, the two girls looked at the screen at the same time, showing evil expressions, and said to the screen: "You saw something you shouldn't have seen."

The video flashed, and the warm kitchen scene suddenly changed. The white cheongsam clothes turned into black cheongsam, the originally light makeup became rich, and the lips were as red as blood.

The woman in the red dress also turned into an old-fashioned dress, and the entire screen turned black. Behind them were countless green lights.

The ketchup on their arms turned into fresh blood, and the blood fell drop by drop.

The two turned their faces and looked at the screen with vicious and greedy eyes. Two blood-stained arms stretched out towards the phone screen.

"Oh my god!" Pan Lin was so frightened that he threw the phone away and covered his heart in shock, fearing that two bloody arms would appear on the screen of the phone and drag him into the screen.

After waiting for a while, Pan Lin saw that there was no hand reaching out for the phone, so he carefully took the phone back.

"Watching this thing in the middle of the night is so scary." Pan Lin turned over his phone, and the video was playing in a loop, and then it was shown to the original scene of the white cheongsam twisting the bottle cap.

Pan Lin touched the phone with his thumb, wanting to switch to the video, but the expression of the white cheongsam girl twisting the bottle cap was so pitiful that it made people want to watch it for a while.

So Pan Lin couldn't help but watch the video again and couldn't help being scared.

But the second time, he was mentally prepared, and the shock was much lessened, and he noticed that behind the two of them, there was a hand on each of their shoulders, seeming to be controlling them.

Pan Lin wanted to take a closer look, but the scary scene was too short, with only a one-second freeze-frame close-up. Before he could take a closer look, he went back to the beginning to twist the bottle cap.

The video was relatively short, so Pan Lin watched it again. This time when he saw the scary scene, he paused the video and watched carefully. Only then did he see clearly that one eye of the two girls was streaming with blood and tears, and a drop was hanging from the corner of the other eye. Unshed tears.

From the shadow behind, you can see a tall figure, with his hands on the shoulders of the two beauties, as if he is controlling them.

It can also be seen in the tears of the two beauties who turned into ghosts that they are asking for help.

"This video is so high-end and has a great sense of design!" Pan Lin watched it a few more times and simply shared the video with his friends, adding the comment "Let's see the beauty."

It is better to scare alone than to scare others, Pan Lin thought.

Damn, that scared me to death!

Posting this stuff in the middle of the night, are you still a human being

But the beautiful sister is really good-looking, has a strong sense of atmosphere, and the twists are scary enough.

If you look carefully at the last scene, it turns out that the beautiful woman is also being forced to be controlled. No more talking, I'm going to save the beauty.

How to save

Repost this video so more people can see it, hahahaha!

Yes, I have to post it at night, so I can find (scare) my friends when the night is dark and the wind is high!

This night, similar conversations appeared in many chat boxes.

Director Zhong, who shot this short video using half a bottle of ketchup left and the ready-made kitchen in the villa, had no idea what was happening on the Internet. After he uploaded the video, he concentrated on filming the movie.

It was the right choice to shoot the interactive scenes between humans and ghosts first. Driven by the outstanding performances of the ghost actors, the human actors also showed amazing acting skills. The crew's filming progress is very fast. It feels that it will be completed in less than three months, which can save another one. Food expenses. Zhong Jiudao thought happily.

What was filmed today was Fu Yue treating her former best friend to a dessert. The two actors were called away by Qi Wanlian and the head of the family, Shen Leshan, respectively. Fu Yue and Aunt Yang entertained the two ladies.

Dessert was of course Aunt Yang’s specialty, lotus seed soup. Since Aunt Yang had become a good person after becoming a ghost servant, she tried not to cook poisonous food. This prop bowl of lotus seed soup was sweet and fragrant. The two actresses couldn’t help but eat the prop several times. This scene was quite difficult to film.

Because what they were going to perform was the scene where they were so frightened after taking one look at the lotus seed soup that they dropped their bowls and ran away.

But the lotus seed soup is so delicious, even if they can resist eating the props, they can't show horror at the food.

After a few times, Aunt Yang was still patient, but Fu Yue had already started to grind her teeth, her nails gradually became longer, and blood oozed from her forehead. Fortunately, it was blocked by her long hair and could not be seen for a while.

Fortunately, Zhong Jiudao was there to suppress him, and Fu Yue took out his handkerchief to wipe away the blood.

But Fu Yue is a violent type of ghost, and this is not the way to go. If she does it twice more, even if Director Zhong is present, she will eat people.

For the first time, I encountered a situation where the director didn't curse because of too much ng, and the actor was about to kill someone, so I had to find a way.

Taking advantage of the actor's time to adjust, Zhong Jiudao got up and went to the bathroom, where he heard Qian Duoqun's screams in front of the door.

Zhong Jiudao hurriedly opened the door and saw two eyes rolling at Qian Duoqun's feet.

Ever since Qian Duoqun proposed setting up a company to exploit the ghosts last time, these eyes have been inseparable from him.

When Zhong Jiudao was present that day, his eyes could roll to Qian Duoqun's feet and stare at him. Now that the crew is busy filming, Zhong Jiudao can't take care of it for a while. These eyes are within the reasonable range agreed by the ghost pattern, scaring Qian Duoqun every day.

When Qian Duoqun was sleeping, when he opened his eyes, he could see a pair of eyes looking at him quietly on the pillow.

When Qian Duoqun was moving props, a pair of eyes would roll around in the warehouse. When he opened any box, he would see a pair of eyes looking at him quietly.

When Qian Duoqun was washing and shaving, he looked up and saw a pair of eyes on the mirror, looking at him quietly.

Regarding this matter, Zhong Jiudao still had a heart-to-heart talk with Eyeball Ghost in his spare time.

"Did I do anything against the ghost pattern?" Eyeball Ghost asked, "Did I hurt him? I just looked at him quietly."

Indeed, this is also the reason why Zhong Jiudao cannot directly teach the eyeball ghost.

All walks of life have their own regulations, which do not violate ghost patterns, and it is not convenient for serious heavenly masters to punish slave ghosts indiscriminately.

"Then why do you have to scare him?" Zhong Jiudao persuaded him earnestly.

"Because he is an evil capitalist!" Eyeball Ghost said with a sense of justice. "I once said before my death that even if I die and am crushed to ashes, I will use these eyes to see to the end and see the evil people in the world. The end!”

He is also a ghost with a sense of justice.

The Eyeball Ghost's eyes are indeed unique, and all its obsessions are in these eyes. Zhong Jiudao once calculated that even if he beat the eyeball ghost to death, these eyes would still not disappear and would become ownerless eyes.

Without the control of the Eyeball Ghost, these eyes would float to the ends of the earth. As long as there was injustice in the world, it would be able to see all injustices.

These eyes are a mixture of obsession, Yin Qi and sense of justice. Using the Celestial Master's magic can only dispel the Yin Qi, but cannot destroy the sense of justice. If the obsession persists, the eyes will never die.

Even Zhong Jiudao can only seal rather than destroy these eyes.

Therefore, it is better to keep the eyeball ghost, at least the eyes can return to its sockets from time to time.

As for Qian Duoqun, Zhong Jiudao could only pat his old partner on the shoulder comfortingly: "When you make money in the future, do more good deeds, and it will slowly go away."

"Do you want to take it slow?" Qian Duoqun screamed.

"... Just get used to it. Once you see it too much, you'll get used to it, just like me." Zhong Jiudao said.

Qian Duoqun: "..."

Normal people can’t get used to this!

Hearing Qian Duoqun screaming in the toilet, Zhong Jiudao knew that his eyes were following him again.

Sure enough, his eyes were rolling around on the sink. After Qian Duoqun shouted, he went to wash his hands again.

It seems that he is used to it a lot.

Seeing this, Zhong Jiudao simply wrapped the two eyeballs with tissue paper and took them to find the eyeball ghost.

When he met Zhong Jiudao, the eye-eyed ghost said resolutely: "Director Zhong, you don't have to say anything, just beat me to death. My faith will never be extinguished!"

Zhong Jiu said: "Don't be so excited. I'm not trying to get rid of you. I just want you to do me a favor and play a cameo role in the film."

"Guest appearance?" Eyeball Ghost was excited, "What kind of plot is this?"

"It's a story about looking for eyes. I will hide your eyes when the time comes, and you can just look for the eyes." Zhong Jiudao said.

"Okay!" Eyeball Ghost agreed.

"But you have to decorate yourself, I'll give this to you." Zhong Jiudao found a pair of 9.9 yuan sunglasses and put them on the eyeball ghost to cover the two black holes on his face.

"Okay, I'm going to be filming next, just go to the studio and look for me." Zhong Jiudao said.

After a short break, start shooting again.

Zhong Jiudao handed two bowls of lotus seed soup to Aunt Yang. Aunt Yang looked down and showed a happy smile.

Xiaoyan and Xiaoyun were also quite embarrassed. The actors who played the ghosts worked very hard and put on all kinds of scary makeup regardless of their appearance. They didn't want to hold them back, but there was really no horror element in the plot of this scene. Fu Yue was just in ordinary modern clothes. They were ordinary actors with extremely low pay. Their looks were ordinary in the entertainment industry, and their acting skills were not worth mentioning. Even if you die, you won't be able to achieve the effect Director Zhong wants.

Aunt Yang handed over the lotus seed soup again. Xiaoyan and Xiaoyun, with the idea of "I must perform well this time", solemnly took the lotus seed soup and glanced inside inadvertently.

Just at this glance, both of them screamed: "Ah!!!"

There was a bloody eye soaked in each of the two bowls of lotus seed soup.

The eyes can also move and change direction according to the movements of the two people. Moreover, the eyes are so realistic and lively that they don't look like props at all.

They both let go on the spot, and just as the bowl was about to fall to the ground, Aunt Yang caught it vigorously.

Aunt Yang held up the bowl and asked, "What? Doesn't it taste good? I carefully made the sweet, soft and glutinous lotus seed soup. Don't you like to drink it?"

Her expression became very strange, and she looked at them with heartbroken and reproachful eyes, as if whoever did not drink this bowl of lotus seed soup had made a big mistake.

"No, no, no! I... we..." The two were so frightened that they could not speak.

Fu Yue also stood up, grabbed a bowl of lotus seed soup, grabbed Xiaoyan's chin and poured it into her mouth, and said with a ferocious face: "Drink, I'll treat you to a drink!"

"Help!" Xiaoyan and Xiaoyun pushed away the bowl and ran away. The lotus seed soup fell to the ground and the bowl broke.

They pushed open the door and ran out, bumping into a man wearing sunglasses in the corridor.

"Help, help!" Xiaoyun grabbed the man's arm and said, "There's a ghost chasing us from behind! Help me!"

The man in sunglasses pushed up his glasses and said politely: "Of course it's no problem. The lady asked me for help. How can I just stand by and watch. It's just that I'm looking for something now. Do you see where it is?"

"What?" Xiaoyan asked.

"Oh, I can't find my eyes. Without them, I can't see and I can't help you." The man in sunglasses showed his white teeth.

"You..." Xiaoyan and Xiaoyun pressed closely together and took a step back.

At this time, two round things rolled at their feet. Their faces turned pale with fright, and they did not dare to look down. Their voices seemed to be stuck in their throats, and they could not scream.

"Oh, I found it. It's at your feet." The man in sunglasses knelt down and picked up two eyeballs.

"Ahh!!!" The two screamed and rushed towards the camera. That's where Director Zhong was. Director Zhong could save them!

"Stuck!" Zhong Jiudao gave a thumbs up to the two of them, "Good performance."

The two of them immediately sat on the ground. When they heard Director Zhong's voice, they seemed to have returned to the earthly world.

Xiaoyan shook her head and said: "I have made so many terrible horror movies, and every time I feel that I scream at enough decibels, and my performance is pretty good. Today I know what it is like to be truly scared."

"Me too. I don't have to worry about any scenes where I get seriously frightened in the future," Xiaoyun said.

"No wonder I heard that my acting skills have improved after working with a good director. I really learned a lot this time." The two of them cried holding each other's hands. They didn't know whether they were moved by their breakthrough, or they were frightened.

This day was still a smooth shooting day. In the evening, the busy director Almighty Clock went back to his room and turned on his computer, trying to find any original composers who were not well-known, low-cost, but well-produced on the Internet to create soundtracks for the film.

At this time, Qian Duoqun knocked on Zhong Jiudao's door frantically: "Explosive! The video you uploaded a few days ago went viral, with millions of likes alone. Hurry up and make more videos!"
