Chapter 297: The Ant's Counterattack
The torrent of history is rolling forward, whether they want to or not, the opening of the film market is an inevitable trend.
Whether they are helpless or happy, they will be swept up.
Coincidentally, this truth was actually explained thoroughly by "Embroidered Spring Knife".
The three brothers were swept into the general trend of Chongzhen's ascension and Wei Zhongxian's downfall, because of Shen Lian's thoughts, Lu Jianxing was charged with all the crimes and was beheaded in the downtown area, and Jin Yichuan was bought by Zhao Gonggong and died under the musket of Dongchang.
All Shen Lian could do was hold Jin Yichuan's corpse and shout in grief: "Second brother is wrong, second brother regrets it!"
Originally, this was the end of the whole story, but in order to make the story more complete, Lu Yang wrote an additional ending.
It was night, in the wilderness, there were shadows, and more than a dozen fast horses galloped from afar, and the leader was naturally Zhao Gonggong.
He slowly stopped on his horse, stretched out his hand to the side, and his own escort brought the water bladder.
"My lord, there is only one inn ahead of this barren mountain, let's rest there," a guard who stepped forward to explore the way reported back to Malay.
"It's okay," Zhao Gonggong finished drinking the water, wiped his mouth, and just wanted to urge the horse forward, but unexpectedly, the sound of horses' hooves came from behind.
Zhao Gonggong looked back and saw a swordsman wearing a hat hanging behind them like a ghost.
"That man is still there......"
"I've been following him for more than ten days, and I can't get rid of him......"
The guards whispered, but Zhao Gonggong recognized the person, "It's Ding Xiu!"
Originally, he had a good calculation, borrowed Ding Xiu's hand to kill Jin Yichuan, and then killed Ding Xiu with a musket.
Who knew that in the end, Jin Yichuan died, but Ding Xiu survived.
And he failed to kill Shen Lian, his identity was exposed, and he finally ended up fleeing, and was targeted by Ding Xiu.
"Let's go!" he glanced at Ding Xiu hatefully, and led the escort into the small inn.
On the second floor of the inn, in a simple room, the lights were dim.
Shen Lian settled Zhou Miaotong and Zhang Yan, and suddenly there was a sound of neighing outside.
He instinctively became alert, picked up the Xiuchun knife, and carried the horse chopping knife on his back, "You guys rest first, I'll go out and have a look." ”
"Be careful yourself," Zhou Miaotong sat on the edge of the bed in plain clothes and admonished.
"Well," Shen Lian replied in a low voice, with her words, everything was worth it.
"Alas~" Zhou Miaotong sighed softly and hugged Zhang Yan beside her, in the long night, only the two of them could snuggle up to each other.
On the other side, Shen Lian went out to check, only to see more than a dozen horsemen breaking into the small courtyard of the inn, and then looking at the person who was the leader, it was the enemy who had a narrow road.
Gonggong Zhao also saw Shen Lian, gritted his teeth and said, "It's you, Shen Lian, you are looking for death!"
I am here today because of you.
There was nothing more to say, Shen Lian silently drew his knife.
I am today, and why is it not thanks to you?
When a big battle was about to break out, the sound ......of horses' hooves sounded again, and Ding Xiu rode in alone.
"Ding Xiu, I won't kill you, but you are still entangled with me!" Zhao Gonggong took more than a dozen guards and was surrounded by these two people one after the other.
Ding Xiu threw the hat, turned over and dismounted neatly, "You killed my junior brother." ”
Gonggong Zhao didn't laugh angrily, "Why did you forget, it was you who wanted to kill Jin Yichuan." ”
"I can kill him, you can't!" Ding Xiu's hands shook, and the linen cloth wrapped in the long knife suddenly fell, revealing the bright blade inside.
In the movie, the relationship between Ding Xiu and Jin Yichuan is also a confused account.
On the surface, Ding Xiu pestered Jin Yichuan, bullied him, and toyed with him, but when the butcher knife was raised, Ding Xiu regretted it again:
If I really kill this kid, won't I be the only one left in this world?
But now, even my junior brother who I was reluctant to kill was killed by you who sent two miscellaneous hairs and killed one person with one shot, how could I let you go?!
It wasn't until this moment that Ding Xiu, the peerless Jiangyang thief, changed his joke and completely showed his hideousness.
"Kill!"
When the enemy met, his eyes were very red, and under the order of Zhao Gonggong, more than a dozen guards rushed towards Ding Xiu with knives, while he himself raised his spear and faced Shen Lian.
"Shen Lian, I said, you are looking for death!"
Next, there was another big fight.
"Card!" After the monitor, Lu Yang got up, "Director Sang, I'll leave it to you." ”
In his original script, Shen Lian was disheartened and took the two girls south to Gusu, who knew that he met Zhao Gonggong halfway, and the two sides symbolically decided the victory and defeat, leaving a little afterglow for the whole movie, and then stopped abruptly.
But for the sake of the box office, this fight may still have some tension.
Sang Mu has been in the group for more than two months and has designed dozens of fights, and he has long been handy, but he does not want to simply design a decisive battle, but wants to use the fight to express the characters in turn.
He wandered to Zhou Jin and said, "Shen Lian's martial arts should be similar to that of Gonggong Zhao, but his spear is longer, and the embroidered spring knife can't take him, so I hope he will use the horse chopping knife first, and then use the mandarin duck short knife, you know what I mean, right?"
Zhou Jin nodded slightly, for men, changing to different weapons to take revenge often has a strong symbolic meaning.
Although he didn't shoot many martial arts scenes, he was trained for a month before embroidering the spring knife, and stayed in the crew for more than two months after the start-up, and he was already quite proficient in the use of knife techniques, so Sang Mu simply instructed some movements, and Zhou Jin knew it well.
After a while, several cameras surrounded the two, and in addition to grasping the details, Sang Mu preferred to take a large panorama.
"Three-two-one, Action!"
Before fighting, the villain will taunt a few words according to the custom, "Shen Lian, can you stop me with your embroidered spring knife?"
Zhou Jin thought about it and felt that there was some truth, so he stuck the embroidered spring knife heavily on the ground and took off the horse chopping knife he was carrying.
Contrary to what most people imagine, the chopping knife needs to be held in both hands, and it is extremely heavy, but it is not brute force, but a skillful force.
The right hand is in front, as a fixed and auxiliary, and the left hand is in the back, which is responsible for generating force and controlling the direction, so that a small lever can be formed, which is the power of this lever.
After Zhou Jin posed, Nie Yuan rubbed his hands, and the snowy gun head came to Zhou Jin's throat.
With the knife in his hand, Zhou Jin naturally did not panic, the horse stepped up, held the handle of the knife with his left hand and pressed it down, and under the action of the lever, the back of the knife jumped up violently and slammed on the head of the gun.
"Bang!"
Nie Yuan's mouth jumped suddenly, and the spear in his hand was almost unable to hold it, and he came out of his hand when he saw it.
Before he could return to defense, Zhou Jin had already taken a step forward, and the strength of his spine and waist and abdomen were pressed together, and the sharp blade brought out a cold knife wind, which hit Nie Yuan's neck.
This move, the knife posture that Zhou Jin has been practicing hard for a long time, has been immersed in it for several months, and finally shines at this time.
After only a few moves, Zhao Gonggong was already embarrassed, and he had no power to fight back, and the spear finally came out, just when Shen Lian was about to win, he saw Nie Yuan rolling on a lazy donkey, narrowly dodging Zhou Jin's blade, and then turned over and approached Zhou Jin.
The strength of the horse chopper is that it has a long attack range, but the weakness is also obvious, that is, it cannot be close.
And Shen Lian's cultivation is all on the knife, when it comes to fist and foot kung fu, he is naturally not Zhao Gonggong's opponent, he was restrained in a few moments, and then he was thrown out with a back bend, and the horse chopping knife was also taken off.
It's bullying that I can't fight in close combat...... Zhou Jin bit the blood sac in his mouth, blood flowed out, he wiped the corners of his mouth, stood up, and his eyes were full of pathos.
"Ahh
At this moment, he would definitely think of the scene when the three brothers fought side by side, because as long as Jin Yichuan's mandarin duck short knife was there, where would he be afraid of being close?
Sang Mu clenched his fists and stood nervously on the sidelines looking at Zhou Jin, he knew that Zhou Jin actually had no martial arts background, and his movements were not beautiful, but his acting skills were really not to be said, and he immediately understood his intentions.
Who says an action director can't express emotions?
Originally, the three brothers fought side by side to form a tactical squad, with far, medium and close ranges, but now things are not human, and the weapons of the three can only be used by one person, such a tragedy is not understandable by ordinary directors.
After Zhou Jin and Nie Yuan rested for a while, the fight continued.
The usage of the mandarin duck short knife is very different from the horse chopping knife, and the use is not skillful, but footwork.
Nie originally wanted to pick up his spear, but Zhou Jin naturally wouldn't let him get his way, and with a few snaps, he approached him.
The knife in the right hand is stabbed directly in the heart, and the knife in the left hand is held in the backhand, hidden behind it, which is the hidden knife posture of the twenty-two potentials of a single knife.
With normal people's thinking, they will subconsciously dodge the knife that stabs the heart first, and Zhao Gonggong is no exception, but he doesn't know that the knife in his right hand is just a disguise, and the real killing move is the knife hidden in his left hand.
At the moment when Nie Yuan dodged the right-handed knife sideways, Zhou Jin quickly turned around, looked back, and the left-handed knife stabbed out instantly.
"Sting!"
The blood sac in front of Nie Yuan's chest was cut, and the red blood splashed all over him.
, Nie Yuan scolded in his heart, even if Zhou Jin used props, and he had several layers in it, he couldn't help but be taken aback.
If he really did it, this knife would be able to abolish him.
But Sang Mu has always written action scenes as articles, paying attention to the beginning and the end, so naturally he can't let Zhao Gonggong die like this.
Just when he thought he was going to die, he touched it with his backhand and actually grabbed his spear.
Nie Yuan was immediately overjoyed, and directly picked up the gun.
At the same time, Zhou Jin's serial offensive was not over, he turned around again, and the short knife in his right hand flew out, stabbing Nie Yuan's neck, which was the flying knife momentum of the twenty-two potential of a single knife.
It's a pity that no matter how fast the flying knife is, it can't reach the spear, and Nie Yuan flicked it lightly, and the short knife "choked" and fell to the ground.
At this time, Zhou Jin's old strength was exhausted, and the new strength was not born, and he was no longer able to resist Nie Yuan's gun.
"Poof"
This is the sound of a gun head piercing a blood sac.
Speaking of the abdomen, it is not fatal, but as long as a person's abdomen is attacked strongly, the whole body will spasm and lose its combat effectiveness.
Zhou Jin was like a shrimp holding a straw, and was picked up on the gun by Nie Yuan, and the short knife in his left hand fell weakly to the ground.
"Shen Lian, let me tell you, even if you really killed Wei Zhongxian at the beginning, you guys would still die, from the moment I found you, you were already dead!"
Nie Yuan looked at the painful look on Zhou Jin's face, became more and more excited, lowered his voice and smiled cruelly.
"Why?" Zhou Jin grabbed the handle of the gun hard and raised his head with difficulty, "Why our brothers?"
"Heh, you ant-like things, who cares if you die? If Ben Du wants to trample you to death, he will trample you to death!"
Nie Yuan was ruthless, pushed the spear, and with a "bang", he slammed Zhou Jin against the wooden wall.
It's just that he didn't see it, and when Zhou Jin retreated, he quietly touched the embroidered spring knife that he had inserted on the ground.
As if caressed by a couple, Zhou Jin struggled to wrap his arms around Nie Yuan's neck, smiled at him hard, and the embroidered spring knife in his other hand aimed at his heart and stabbed straight in.
There was a "stab" sound, and the blood sac ruptured.
Even ants will make their own resistance.
Out of camera's reach, the red-stained blade turned around and stabbed out of its armpit.
Nie Yuan lowered his head, his face full of incredulity, and his cheeks twitched.
How is this possible?
"You've lost everything, you've lost everything, and you've lost it all!"
Zhou Jin finally smiled miserably and pushed Zhao's body to the ground.
The high-ranking governor of Dongchang was finally overturned by three ants.
On the other side, according to the plot, Ding Xiu, who has the most powerful martial arts, has also eliminated those guards, lying on the ground covered in scars, panting heavily.
Zhou Jin looked around and saw dead bodies everywhere.
He really took revenge, but his brothers never came back.
Zhou Jin forcefully pulled out the spear inserted in his waist and threw it aside, his face indescribable joy and sorrow, only boundless hesitation.
"Over!"
This voice was shouted by Mulberry.
Perhaps because he was too excited, his voice even trembled a little.
He knows that this scene has been played for so long, and it may be a bit cumbersome for the whole movie, but for his career, it will be an insurmountable peak.
He has successfully combined martial arts action with the emotional changes of the characters, and he has been able to do this before with "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and "Rain of Swords".
From now on, he will become one of the most outstanding martial arts instructors in the mainland and even in the entire Chinese-language film.
And it was Zhou Jin who completed this fight for him, and only Zhou Jin.
Lu Yang didn't see any mystery in Sang Mu's action design, but he just sat in front of the monitor, and he could also feel Zhou Jin's last tragedy.
He never thought that the original little afterglow would be rendered with such a tragic color, outlining the most colorful stroke for the sad background of the whole "Embroidered Spring Knife".
"I announce that "Embroidered Spring Knife" is officially finished!" Lu Yang jumped up vigorously.
Since then, he has also been a man with masterpieces.
In the crew, although there was a lot of unhappiness before, but after getting along for a few months, seeing the birth of such a work, even if it was Li Lighting, he was more or less happy.
As for the fourth child, he was no longer happy, but ecstatic, and the corner of his eyes couldn't help but moisten a little as a majestic man like an iron tower.
What's more, from now on, he can finally become a gaffer.
"Whew~" Zhou Jin was happy in his heart, but he was so tired that he couldn't move, lying on the ground panting.
Liu Sisi walked over silently, quietly helped him up, and the two looked at each other and smiled.
For Liu Sisi, this is her first step into the film industry.
For Zhou Jin, this is an important part of his efforts to prove his worth to the mainstream film industry.
Either way, it's a work to remember.
"The day after tomorrow, everyone who can come will come, the imperial capital Houhai "Embroidered Spring Knife" bar, our own bar, if you don't get drunk, you won't return!"
Chen Zhiqian took advantage of everyone's happiness and announced loudly.
Sure enough, when I heard that there was a bar named after "Embroidered Spring Knife", everyone was so excited whether they liked to drink or not.
"Are you ready over there?" Zhou Jin asked quietly.
Liu Sisi wrapped his arms around him and nodded with a smile, "Well, we will open the day after tomorrow, happy or not, don't ......."
Zhou Jin hugged her into her arms and hugged her shoulders hard, Liu Sisi closed her eyes slightly, thinking that there would be a kiss, but after waiting for a long time, she found that there was nothing.
She raised her eyes and glanced at them, and found that Zhou Jin had closed her eyes, and there was a slight snoring sound in her throat.
I waited for you to kiss me, and you actually fell asleep?
Liu Sisi was ashamed, annoyed and distressed, and he was still reluctant to wake him up.
Hmph, if it weren't for the fact that there are so many people now, see how I clean you up.
