There are many props about witches in the movie, such as a mysterious stone mill, a straw man with tree branches tied up, and a dilapidated "haunted house".

At first, Liu Pian wanted to do it with himself and the prop master, but he was afraid that it would not look too similar, and it happened that Henry, an old guy who had lived for more than half a hundred, was here, and this guy also knew a lot about witches, so it was best for him to do it.

Henry thought for a moment and said he would be happy to help.

Liu Pian also planned to pay him to do it, but Henry didn't seem to have the idea of doing so.

"The five thousand dollars you paid me is enough. Henry smiled and shook his head, "Insatiable greed is not a good quality for a hunter. ”

Liu Pian smiled dumbly, but she misunderstood him.

......

In the afternoon, Henry made a stone moire: a small hill of stones of different shapes.

"Before a witch kills someone, she puts a stone on it, and a stone stone means that she wants to kill someone. In the forest, Henry stood in front of his masterpiece and explained.

But except for Liu Pian, no one wanted to approach this thing, even if everyone saw Henry pile it up with their own eyes.

"Wouldn't you be guilty of any taboos in doing this?" Cleaver frowned.

Henry spread his hand and grinned, revealing his old yellow teeth: "You all think that witches don't exist, so what's taboo about filming? Besides, isn't this filming? It's all fake." I made this thing, and I'm not a witch. ”

Henry explained, but the crowd was still reluctant to come closer.

But this is only temporary.

After Henry had piled up six more stones, the shooting began. In the plot, in the trio of death, someone went to touch this thing, and had the audacity to pick up the stone on the stone mill.

It is Jesse's character who dies, and under the camera, he can only do his job of doing his job. Fortunately, with so many people watching, he was not too scared, but pretended to be nervous.

A good calf is not afraid of tigers, and this is what he describes.

After four times of this scene, Liu Pian decided to pass it and continue to shoot other scenes.

It wasn't until night fell that everyone set up a tent and let Jesse and the three of them go in to shoot a scene before calling it a day and returning to the town.

.....

Leaving the gloomy and oppressive forest and returning to the crowded town again, Jesse and the others breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly felt like a world away.

Did I come back alive?

"Oh, that's lucky!" Shalene, who was the least daring, hugged Jesse directly, "I'm not dead yet!"

Henry was speechless, and Liu Pian also rolled his eyes, "How many times have I emphasized it, this is just filming, don't be so afraid." ”

Sha Lin smiled helplessly, this scene is too real.

Henry smiled: "I can understand your feelings, in fact, even in our local area, few people dare to enter the forbidden land, young men, you are really brave. ”

Jesse and Cliver shrugged.

If it weren't for the damn money, I'd rather be less brave.

Liu Pian turned around and instructed Henry, "See you tomorrow, we are still waiting for you to show us the true face of the forbidden land." ”

Henry nodded, "As you wish." ”

......

After everyone parted, Henry went to the bar alone. This time he took out his own money and slapped it in front of the guy, which made the guy rub his eyes in surprise, and picked up the money and looked at it several times, afraid that it was a counterfeit banknote.

"Where did you get the money?" the man was curious, and handed Henry a glass of wine.

"I earned it myself. ”

"Oh, you must have deceived those outsiders and swindled them out of money, didn't you?"

"Fart! I earned it as a guide!"

The guy stared at him suspiciously, "Guide, where did you take them?"

"Baiji Valley. ”

"Oh my God, that's forbidden land!" exclaimed the fellow, "you're crazy to take them to that kind of place." ”

"What's wrong with where you go?"

"Witch..."

Henry interrupted him rudely, "Didn't you keep saying that witches don't exist?"

After saying that, he squinted at him with a look of disdain and mocked, "Sometimes I really don't understand that someone like you, who keeps saying that witches don't exist, can be afraid of Baiji Valley?

Henry looked down on this the most, but this is a common trait of many people in the town.

The people talked about the witch legend in the town with a relaxed expression, but few people had the courage to go into the Baiji Valley in person, and they didn't even dare to approach it.

What are you afraid of?

Where does fear come from?

Henry didn't think it was the fear of witches, it was just people deceiving themselves.

The man snorted, suddenly lowered his head, and was silent. He himself wondered, obviously thinking that witches didn't exist, but why was he so afraid?

"Well, old fellow, I admit that you are a brave enough person. He filled Henry with wine, "You traded your courage for money." I've asked you for this wine. ”

Henry picked up his glass and drank it down.

He felt that it was not because he was brave, but because he was not afraid. The witch brought fear to the people, but not to him.

"Tell me what you met in the Forbidden Lands?" the man wondered.

"Nothing was encountered, the air in the forbidden place was much fresher than the air in the bar. ”

"Didn't they go to shoot a documentary?" said the guy, "what did they shoot?"

Hearing this, Henry suddenly fell silent. He knows that Liu Pian and they are making movies, not documentaries.

He muttered for a moment, until the man had filled him up again, and then said, "I've got a witch." ”

The man's eyes widened instantly, but instead of the glass of wine before leaving, Henry turned around and walked straight away.

The guy yelled, "Damn old fellow, you're lying to me again, aren't you?

Henry waved his hand without looking back, "I'll lie to you." ”

The guy sat behind the counter in disbelief, a thin cold sweat breaking out on his back.

......

In the following week, Liu Pian and others went to the valley to shoot during the day, and returned to the town at about eight or nine o'clock in the evening.

The plot in the valley, Liu Pian did not shoot in chronological order, but according to the sky.

Shoot the plot during the day and shoot the plot at night.

It wasn't until four days later that all the plots were filmed.

Next, Liu Pian only needs to edit these materials, no need for rendering, no soundtrack, no dubbing, just preserve the real taste as it is.

In the past few days, the shooting has not been smooth sailing, and there have been many accidents during the period.

The most important thing is the emotional problems of the three Jesses.

There is a night scene in which the three of them are resting in their tent when a witch comes out and shakes their tent.

When filming this scene, Liu Pian didn't tell them in advance, so that the three of them were frightened and screamed again and again.

Later, when he learned that the tent was shaken by Liu Pian and Henry, he was relieved.

But even so, Liu Pian did not let Sha Lin complain.

This is not a routine to play cards, almost didn't scare a heart attack!

After Liu Pian apologized, she then took the device to watch the video they recorded, and after seeing the real expression of fear, she couldn't help but nod with satisfaction.

And the three of Jesse stood silently on the side, scolding in their hearts: Perverted!

Zhou Mulan thought it was funny, she hadn't experienced this kind of filming process before.

......

Then, this night, Liu Pian and the others did not go back to the town, they separated from Henry on the side of the road, and then planned to go back to the city directly.

Before parting, Liu Pian paid Henry an extra thousand dollars, "Take it." ”

"This is—" Henry frowned.

"You're the guide, we're the tourists, so let's take it as an extra reward when the customer is satisfied. ”

Henry paused and silently accepted the money, "Liu, thank you. ”

"I have to thank you for telling me so many legends about witches. Liu Pian patted Henry on the shoulder, "Go back and buy a few more bottles of good bars." ”

Henry grinned, carefully pocketed the money, and asked, "Are you going to release this movie?"

"Not surprisingly, it will. "When the time comes, you should see a poster of it at the door of the movie theater, called "Blair the Witch." ”

Henry joked, "I'm looking forward to it, the people in town don't know you're making a movie yet, and they'll be surprised to see Jesse and the three of them killed by a witch at the end." Haha, these cowards, don't really believe it! I really want to see their frightened expressions. ”

Liu Pian shrugged, "That's why I told them it's a documentary, because documentaries represent reality." But in fact, it's just a truth I fabricated. ”

Henry's pupils shrank suddenly, "But I know it's fake." ”

Liu Pian smiled indifferently, "It doesn't matter, I just want to scare people." ”

Scary?

Henry's heart jumped.

"Do witches exist?" asked Liu Pian.

"It doesn't exist. This time, Henry gave the answer.

"But fear exists. Liu Pian waved her hand and turned to leave.

Henry was stunned, and then silently watched Liu Pian and the others get into the car and leave, disappearing at the end of the road.
