Of course, Liu Pian doesn't want to die, everything is just to serve the plot.

Although she has heard so many legends about witches in the past two days, Liu Pian doesn't believe it in her heart.

Even strange things happened to him.

"System, witches aren't real, right?" Liu Pian asked in her heart.

[Don't ask me, I don't know]

"Don't you claim to know everything?"

[That's right, but, kid, you have to believe in science]

Liu Pian: "......"

The system is as unreliable as ever.

Soon after, the crowd stopped on the side of the road. Dense forests and rolling hills are on both sides. Deep in the forest, there is what people call a forbidden place: Baiji Valley.

Led by Henry, everyone put on their filming equipment and walked towards the valley.

Along the way, the crowd walked through the forest, brushing away the thorns that stood in their way until they came to a stop by a small stream.

Henry pointed to a protruding rock by the stream, "See, that's the coffin rock, where a few hapless policemen once died, everyone was disemboweled, their internal organs were shattered, and then their bodies were connected and tied together." ”

Liu Pian raised her eyebrows, "Is it really like you said, someone died here?"

Sha Lin was scared: "It shouldn't be true, how could such a cruel thing happen." ”

"I don't know, it was more than a hundred years ago. Henry shrugged, "Legends, passed down from generation to generation, as for whether it is true or not, you can judge for yourself, no one can give you an accurate answer now." ”

"That's fake!" said Shalene, with fear in her eyes.

Zhou Mulan didn't say anything, just looked at Liu Pian, "Do you want to start filming next?"

"You're the chief director, you can decide for yourself. Liu Pian smiled.

Zhou Mulan rolled her eyes, she didn't seem to have much role as a director, she was like a mascot in the crew.

"Then let's start shooting. Zhou Mulan beckoned the crew, using the coffin rock and the legend on it as the background, and asked the three Jesses to start the "introduction".

Pseudo-documentaries can also be regarded as related to documentaries, since they are documentaries, they generally have a plot of "recording and introducing". Food will be introduced in food documentaries, war documentaries will explain war, and now, Jesse and the three will explain the origin of "Coffin Rock".

You just need to tell the audience about this, and it doesn't matter if the audience believes it or not.

So far in the plot, the three protagonists don't believe in witches either.

Moments later, the three of them started filming.

Shalene stood in front of the camera, holding a book, and began to introduce the coffin rock behind her that scared her.

"It's a place where humanity suffers....."

......

During the day, the people spent the day in the forest. At lunchtime, everyone was settled on the spot: a picnic.

The scenery here is not bad, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, the wind and the sun are beautiful, if it weren't for those damn witch legends, Sha Lin and the others would definitely eat with relish.

But it is precisely because of those legends that Sha Lin's appetite is not very good.

They are actors, and their sense of substitution is much deeper than that of Liu Pian.

However, Liu Pian and the others ate deliciously, and he also discussed those ethereal legends with Henry.

After following the crew for so long, Henry also realized that these people didn't seem to be filming a documentary, but rather like... Acting?

Because from beginning to end, only the three of them chattered in front of the camera, Liu Pian and the others remained absolutely quiet most of the time, and this requirement was also placed on Henry's head.

When Henry asked about the doubts in his heart, Liu Pian did not hide it and told him directly.

Liu Pian didn't have to bring an outsider, but he found that if he used it well, Henry would also become an important player in the "deception plan".

Nothing is more convincing than the "truth" of a local, which creates an illusion for the melon-eating audience who are trying to dig up the truth.

"So you're making a movie! It's all acting, it's fake!"

Henry and Liu Pian stood by the stream, and the old guy's surprised expression was much more exaggerated than when he learned that Liu Pian and they were going to break into the forbidden land.

"It's not all fake. Liu Pian smiled, "At least the legend of the witch is true here, I just use the camera to make the legend come true on the screen." ”

"Oh, daring boy, you're crazy. Henry exclaimed.

He hadn't realized the follow-up after the film was filmed, otherwise he would have been even more dumbfounded.

"But who's going to play the witch?" said Henry, glancing at the rest of the people not far away.

"You don't need a human to play it. Liu Pian smiled, "Witches are ethereal and ubiquitous, we only need to film what witches do, and we don't need to photograph her real." For example, when Jesse and her team were exploring the forest, they were attacked by witches, and they disappeared one after another, and there were no corpses. ”

Henry: "....."

"It's just acting, isn't it?" said Henry.

"Of course, I'm not a witch, so I'm not going to kill them. ”

Henry nodded thoughtfully.

Liu Pian is also thinking, now is a good opportunity. Many people in the town know that there are three daring guys who come here to shoot a documentary about witches, but they don't know what their follow-up will be....

If you want to deceive most of the audience, you must first deceive the residents of this town.

Liu Pian had an idea and denied all the previous arrangements. If you want to make this film a little more realistic, maybe now is a good opportunity.

But we can't let this deception plan be too seamless, and there have to be flaws.

If you make a big fuss, it will really cause trouble for the police. Liu Pian didn't want to be charged with some trumped-up crimes.

In Liu Pian's original plan, this deception plan was just a gimmick, and he didn't really want to hide it. He needed to use this plan to create misunderstandings and then get them to go to the cinema with curiosity.

The three of them became tigers, and the rumors were terrifying.

Some of these people may believe that they are true, and some of them have found out that they are false through investigation..... But it doesn't matter, whether it's true or not, as long as the heat rises and attracts more and more attention, it is enough.

Those who know that this is a scam may also walk into the cinema with curiosity to see what the story behind the scam is like.

To put it bluntly, this is a conspiracy, a tempting enough joke.

Even if someone is resourceful enough to figure it out, so what? As long as it's hyped up enough that more and more people come to see the movie.

At that point, people will naturally realize that this is a little trick played by the publisher.

But everyone willingly fell for it.

Therefore, Liu Pian didn't intend to hide it from the residents of the town from the beginning, the residents' "knowing" was just a flaw he deliberately left, and he didn't intend to hide it from him when he brought Henry over. He also initially planned to find a few local residents to cooperate with the performance and give a few fixed lines. But I didn't expect the filming to go smoothly, and there was no need to find someone to cooperate with the acting, and the local residents were all "good actors" who cooperated with the performance.

Should I turn a blind eye to my performance with you?

Liu Pian suddenly felt that there was a lot of room for manipulation in this matter.

After thinking about it, Liu Pian still felt that it was too much trouble to cause local residents to call the police, and it would be worth the loss. At that time, it is estimated that before the movie is released, everything will have already been exposed.

Now, it's OK to keep a low profile.

As for whether Henry will tell the other residents, Liu Pian doesn't care, just say it, just treat it as a flaw deliberately left, so that some naïve people still believe it and think that it will be troublesome if three people really die.

........

After learning that all this was just acting, Henry also understood all the causes and consequences. The old guy also warmly asked Liu Pian if he needed help.

Liu Pian nodded, "I remember, you said that you had seen witches, but have you ever seen those curses left by witches when they killed people? are those weird things left behind when they kill, such as scarecrows, evil formations, and the like?"

"I heard my father tell about it. Henry nodded, and asked, "What do you want?"

Liu Pian smiled: "You must be helping me make props." ”
