Chapter Forty-Eight: Much Ado About Nothing
The next day, when we arrived on the set, Shen Ningmeng just greeted Cheng Ming lightly, and didn't even ask about his injury, but Cheng Ming was very happy. According to his words, Shen Ningmeng finally took the initiative to talk to him.
If it weren't for the large number of people on the set, I would have really wanted to spray him in the face. I couldn't stand his cheap face, so I just went around in a circle and went around to the outside of the set.
The director is going to shoot a horse riding scene this time, and the dressed Shen Ningmeng is sitting on a horse, which does have a bit of heroic taste. As soon as I glanced at it twice, I heard Shen Ningmeng's mount suddenly let out a long roar and ran out.
"The horse is shocked!"
The entire crew was frightened by this sudden change, and no one reacted for a long time.
I reached out and grabbed a horse beside me, turned over and jumped up, clamped the horse's belly between my legs, and went straight to Shen Ningmeng to chase after me.
As soon as my front feet moved, I heard the sound of horses' hooves behind me. I turned around and saw that Tan Yue was also galloping on his horse, and the ribs also rushed out, chasing after Shen Ningmeng one step ahead of me.
Seeing that Shen Ningmeng's horse had rushed to the direction of the cliff in the distance, my horse couldn't catch up. I immediately shouted backwards, "Help me fight the horse!" β
As soon as I finished speaking, there was a sound of whipping wind behind me. After a snap, I felt a warm liquid splash on my back. You don't need to look at it to know that Tan Yue's whip must have whipped the horses to the ground.
After the horse under my crotch neighed, it ran like crazy, and chased after Shen Ningmeng in just a few seconds. I pressed the horse's head with both hands, leaped up from the horse's back, and landed behind Shen Ningmeng.
The horse went berserk again after being hit by me, neighing and rushing towards the cliff.
"Phewβ" I grabbed the reins and pulled back, intending to restrain the startled horse, but the right reins were broken in two in my hand. After I lost control of one hand, my left hand still jerked back, and the horse shook its head sharply under my tug, and somehow crossed in the direction of the cliff.
"Oops!"
As soon as I felt bad, I heard a "click" in my ears, and the horses immediately fell sideways.
Not good!
The horse weighs hundreds of pounds, coupled with the strength of the horse's struggle, the strength of the sudden fall to the ground can reach at least a thousand catties, once Shen Ningmeng and I are pressed under the horse, although it may not be fatal, but one leg will definitely not be saved, even if the broken bone can be taken back, it will leave sequelae.
If I want to escape with Shen Ningmeng, I have to kick the horse at least twice in a row before I can use my strength to cross the horse and land in a safe place; By then, the horse was tilted, and I didn't have time to complete the complex maneuvers, unless I chose to jump off the cliff.
Broken leg? Or is it a fight for life?
In the blink of an eye, I can't afford to think about it anymore. At that time, there was only one thought in my mind: I had to keep my legs, otherwise I would face a mission failure; Besides, if you work hard, there is Tan Yue over there......
I kicked the horse, flew up with Shen Ningmeng in my arms, and fell straight in the direction of the cliff.
The first thing I heard in mid-air was an exclamation, and some people were even crying. Suddenly, Tan Yue's roar overwhelmed the voices of dozens of people: "Grab the whip!" β
I saw Tan Yue's whip shoot in front of my eyes, and immediately raised my hand to grab it. As soon as I grasped the whip in the palm of my hand, Tan Yue pushed the horse's head back with his left hand, and his right hand suddenly exerted force, and a man and a horse almost merged into one in that instant, and the force from his hand was no less than a thousand catties.
I used my strength to reverberate, kicked the mountain wall a few times with both feet, and the whole person flew up again, holding Shen Ningmeng and falling back to the ground.
Until I stood on my feet, Shen Ningmeng still hugged my neck, buried his head in my chest, and remained motionless. I pushed twice in a row to push her away from me.
"Ribs, it turned out!" When the ribs heard my call, they pounced on the horse and slit the horse's throat until the horse that had fallen to the ground stopped struggling and stepped aside.
I walked over and lifted the horse's leg to take a look: "The horse's leg was broken." Tan Yue, did you see anything just now? β
"Nope!" Tan Yue shook his head and said, "My attention was all on you at the time, and I didn't look under the horse's belly. β
I really can't complain about Tan Yue in this matter, if it were me, I wouldn't pay attention to the horse's legs at that time.
Before I could get up, the chops whined twice in my throat, and my heart moved: "Do you see something under the horse's leg?" β
Ribs nodded. It had been chasing Shen Ningmeng near it just now, and it should have seen something. But it can't speak, so I can only guess slowly.
"Did you see a ghost?"
The chop stretched out its paw and touched my hand. It must have meant that a hand had just been seen near the horse's leg, and that hand had broken the horse's leg.
When Tan Yue and I looked at each other, the ribs stretched out their claws and touched the horse's eye again, and I noticed that there was a scratch on the horse's eye that looked like it had been scratched by a fingernail. If I'm not mistaken, Shen Ningmeng's horse was suddenly frightened, it should have been a ghost who reached out and grabbed its eyes, and the horse was in pain and saw the ghost again, so it went crazy.
In other words, when I was chasing Shen Ningmeng, the ghost should have been hiding under the horse's belly.
I reached under the saddle and flipped it twice, and pulled out a whitish piece of leather from the strap under the saddle. Tan Yue took his hand and sniffed it twice: "Human skin!" No wonder the ghost was not afraid of Shen Ningmeng's luck, and came out to sneak attack in broad daylight, but it turned out that he was forced to be helpless. β
Human skin against ghosts is a secret method of the evil sect, which can force the ghost to do things for him without remembering life and death. The ghost hidden under the saddle should have been wiped out by now, and the other party not only used the ghost to stimulate the horses, but also cut off the clues.
As soon as I put away the piece of human skin, Aunt Liu ran over in a hurry, crossed her waist and shouted, "It's all you!" I blame you for scaring the dream horse with that broken dog, if something happens to you, can you be responsible? β
"Fart!" I immediately became angry: "You have a brain disease, right?" Which eye scared the horse when it saw the ribs? β
Aunt Liu Zhenzhen said: "When Ning Meng got on the horse, your dog was squatting on the side, what else could it be?" I'll tell you......"
"Tell me a fart!" I directly pushed back: "When Shen Ningmeng got on the horse, you were also on the side, and I said that you were startled by the horse!" What the! β
"How dare you scold me!" Aunt Liu's face turned pale with anger: "Do you still have a little education......
"Aunt Liu is enough!" When Shen Ningmeng walked over, although there was still a look of shock on his face, he was more angry: "Mr. Li is desperate to save me, you also saw it, what are you doing?" Do you want revenge? β
"Ning Meng, how can you turn your elbow out?" Aunt Liu was halfway through her words, but she was glared at by Shen Ningmeng, and her tone immediately softened: "Even if it wasn't the broken dog that scared the horse, then the horse's leg was broken later, it must have been bitten by it......"
"Enough, stop being vexatious! Isn't that shameful enough? Shen Ningmeng's face turned pale with anger: "You can see for yourself if there are any blood stains on the horse's legs." What are you thinking, I know very well, and I guarantee that what you are worried about will not happen. If you do this again, please go back! β
Aunt Liu opened her mouth and stopped talking, but before leaving, she glared at me fiercely, looking like she wanted to eat me.
Shen Ningmeng greeted me apologetically and followed the staff. I found an opportunity to call Cheng Ming over: "What's the matter with the old lady?" Why do you seem to be hostile to me? β
"She's got maggots in her head!" Cheng Ming gritted his teeth and said, "She is not only hostile to you, but also hostile to men who are close to Ning Meng. The whole crew is just me and the director, she doesn't dare to do anything, and the others, which one has not been scolded by her. If it weren't for the fact that she is a relative of Ning Meng, I would have started pumping her a long time ago! β
"She's really Shen Ningmeng's economic person?" I don't think that Ba Po is the material of a dry agent. As far as her mouth is concerned, no one in the entertainment industry has been desperately covered, and she has already been crooked, and what kind of business is she talking about.
"!" Cheng Ming said: "She is a relative of Ning Meng. Said that the broker was putting gold in his face. Ning Meng sometimes hates that old thing, but as if she owes her something, she has always been embarrassed to let her go. β
Tan Yue sneered: "That surnamed Liu, doesn't he look like an old bustard?" After raising his daughter, he watched it like a dog, for fear that he would not be able to sell it at a good price if he was not careful. β
Cheng Ming was unhappy: "Don't say that! Strange ugly ......"
Tan Yue smiled and didn't say anything, but his words were not wrong. Aunt Liu must be extremely satisfied with the person behind Shen Ningmeng, she looked at Shen Ningmeng, in addition to the philistine, she was more likely to be afraid of the other party.
