Chapter 307: The Demon's Aesthetics
As the saying goes, the ideal is plump, but the reality is skinny.
Although all the preparations have been made, only three days after the official start of filming, Lin Taiping was very sad to find that with the performance level of the blood sickle, he wanted to finish filming "A Chinese Ghost Demon" in a few months...... Well, maybe after a hundred years in our family, these guys can burn the film to me.
In fact, the whole filming process can be described in one word, that is, chaos, just the scene where the Demon King appeared, it was filmed back and forth twenty times, and the damn blood sickle didn't know if it was intentional, every time he appeared, he would steal the limelight, relying on his size to be big enough to block the camera, blocking poor Lilu so tightly that he couldn't even see his figure.
Then, as if it would be contagious, starting from the blood sickle, all the demons were in full condition, either stepping on the robe and falling down for some reason, or scrambling to knock over the vase, the bastard of the Abyss Flame Demon only had two lines in total, but this guy just couldn't remember it, and forgot the words so much that people wanted to engrave the lines directly on its head.
In this case, the difficult shooting work is like a snail crawling, slowly moving forward at the speed of a few shots a day, a whole month of shooting, the whole movie is actually only a quarter of the way through, Lin Taiping can only resist the urge to shoot all these guys away, and patiently reminds himself: "Calm down, calm down, everyone is amateur anyway." ”
But soon, his calmness was destroyed, and the reason was very simple, because in the next battle scene shooting, the unlucky Blackbeard actually just appeared on the stage to pose for a pose, and stepped on a bursting fireball buried in the ground, and then with a tragic scream, he was directly blasted into the air at a height of thirty meters, and when he fell, he was already seven minutes ripe.
And that's not even a big deal, the hell knows how powerful that fireball is, and it actually caused a terrible chain reaction. So just a few seconds later, the fireballs under the entire shooting location exploded en masse, and more than a dozen demons were all shrouded, and stump fragments flew everywhere, and it was a miracle that they could crawl out alive.
Damn! The blood scythe crawled out of the sea of fire and was dying, and its first reaction was to roar angrily, directly grabbing the abyss fire demon who was watching the excitement: "Bastard, where the hell did you bury the fireball, haven't you seen the drawings before?"
"I've seen it, I've really seen it. The Abyssal Fire Demon blinked innocently. He took out a crumpled drawing from his bosom, "According to my lord's orders, I buried all the fireballs in the southeast corner, and as long as Blackbeard retreated there after the battle scene, he could immediately create a very realistic explosion effect." ”
! Is that the southeast corner? Is that obviously the southwest?
The blood sickle jumped hysterically, and the surrounding demons collectively pounced on it, surrounding the abyssal fire demon who had no sense of direction, and it was a ferocious pain, only the black-haired and smoking blackbeard was still lying there. With tears streaming down his face, he hugged Lin Taiping's thigh, and said dying: "My lord, I think I can still save ......"
I didn't see anything. Lin Taiping looked at the sky speechless with tears in his eyes, and could only quietly evacuate the chaotic scene, well, he can be sure now. Today's shoot is definitely not finished, so instead of staying and watching the group fight, it is better to do something more meaningful. For example-
On the wasteland in front of the gate of the Blood Castle, the nest of monsters that had been placed here early in the morning was emitting an evil aura in the warm sunlight, but it was obvious that its vitality was rapidly weakening at a speed visible to the naked eye, and it might not be long before the evil alchemy creature created by the demon king would die completely......
"Looks like we can't wait any longer. Lin Taiping lightly touched the monster's nest, then sighed painfully, and looked down at the ring of the gods on his left hand.
The black light flashed, and when he opened his eyes again, his consciousness had entered the temple of the gods, which was still a vast hall shrouded in firelight, and it was still a towering statue of the gods, and that emotionless low voice suddenly sounded as always-
"Pious believers, kneel before the gods and offer your sacrifice with a sincere heart, and you will be blessed by the gods!"
I can already memorize it, Lin Taiping complained silently in his heart, and then raised his head very calmly and asked: "Great gods, I hope to get your blessing to restore this nest of monsters that are about to die." ”
The voice echoed through the hall, but gradually returned to silence, and after a few minutes, the hollow and deep voice sounded again: "Devout believers, the gods have heard your prayers, and with your sincere heart, offer 100,000 magic crystals to the gods, and your wish will be fulfilled." ”
100,000! 100,000, 100,000! And it's not gold coins, it's magic crystals!
Seriously, even if Lin Taiping had already known this number before, but when he heard it again at this moment, he still felt a sense of dizziness and weakness, a full 100,000 magic crystals, almost equal to 10 million gold coins, what are you kidding, if there are 10 million gold coins, I can directly form a medium-sized armed fleet, and what do I want to save the nest of monsters?
In fact, he has been desperately collecting magic crystals for a long time, first selling the wealth generously given by Baron Michael, and then asking Blackbeard to sell the last few parts of the "Holy Maiden Priesthood" series, but even if all of them are added up, the total number of magic crystals on hand is only more than six thousand.
"Six thousand, six thousand, not even a tenth. Sighing with emotion, Lin Taiping suddenly felt that he was very poor, but fortunately, he didn't plan to really pay 100,000 magic crystals at all.
So after a few seconds, he looked up again and asked the question he really wanted to ask: "Great gods, maybe I don't need to completely revive the nest of monsters, I just need it to restore some of its vitality, such as having the most basic functions to reproduce the lowest level of monsters, if that's the case?"
Seriously, this was the first time Lin Taiping had bargained with the Temple of the Gods, in fact, he really doubted that with the stubborn character and rigid thinking of that empty voice, he would be able to understand this kind of bargaining...... In fact, it was indeed as he feared, after hearing his question, the whole hall fell silent.
There was no way, Lin Taiping could only wait patiently, I don't know how long it had passed, until he was almost about to give up this plan, but the empty voice sounded again: "Devout believers, offer six thousand and one hundred magic crystals to the gods, and the gods will fulfill your minimum wishes......"
Meow, you did it on purpose!
Lin Taiping first breathed a sigh of relief, and then couldn't help gritting his teeth, he dared to swear with his character, this guy who wants money must be on purpose, how can there be such a coincidence in the world, there are just 6,100 magic crystals around me, you just want 6,100 magic crystals, no more, no less, just right, even a fraction of it has to be taken away?
But the problem is that even if he knew that there was a big pit in front of him, he could only jump into it with his eyes closed: "Okay, I'm willing to sacrifice six thousand and one hundred magic crystals, but I want to make sure once again that the nest of monsters after recovering some of their vitality is capable of breeding low-level monsters...... Hey, hey, I'm not done yet!"
Too lazy to listen to his nagging, a black light fell directly from the sky, sweeping away the magic crystals in his storage necklace, and almost at the same time, the empty voice sounded again: "Devout believers, the gods are satisfied with your sacrifice, and the dark gods will grant your wishes and ...... for you"
Before the words fell, the entire hall suddenly shook and turned into illusory, and when Lin Taiping regained consciousness, he found that he had returned to the real world, less than ten meters in front of him, the monster's nest placed in the center of the wasteland was bursting out with a dazzling light as red as blood, and even enveloped the entire wasteland.
This strange sight immediately alarmed the demons who were filming, and the blood sickle immediately rushed over with a group of demons and murderously: "Damn, what happened, I just seemed to feel a very powerful evil aura, as if my grandfather's grandfather's grandfather had been resurrected...... Huh?"
When he spoke, before he finished speaking, the blood sickle was already stunned and opened his mouth wide, and even the raised scythe smashed to the surface of his feet, and the demons behind him were no better, and they couldn't stop bumping together, and then they collectively stretched their necks, as if they saw the miracle of the dark god appear-
Yes, not far in front of them, the monster's nest, shrouded in bright red light, was undergoing astonishing strange changes, the outer layer of the rock trembled slightly, and gradually cracks like spider webs appeared, extending and shattering, and an eerie and icy evil aura surged out from these cracks, absorbing the vitality of the surrounding plants and trees, making the entire wasteland completely black.
"Is this?" Blood Scythe trembled in disbelief, his red eyes about to jump out, "The dark god is above, what did I see, the monster's nest is really ......"
Boom! In an instant, the monster's nest suddenly exploded and cracked, and the surging and tumbling black air wave swept into the air, and tens of thousands of rock fragments splashed everywhere, and Lin Taiping and the demons who were close at hand were suddenly hit by this turbulent air wave, and flew out uncontrollably, smashing heavily into the bushes hundreds of meters away.
The next moment, as the black qi wave gradually dissipated and calmed down, the monster's nest that appeared in everyone's field of vision was no longer in the form of the bright red stone egg before, to be more precise, it was only after it had recovered some of its vitality at this time that it was truly worthy of the name of the monster's nest.
The huge nest was as red as blood, it looked like a heart, a strange heart erected on the wasteland, its rough surface appeared rugged, and it was covered with countless earthworm-like thick blood vessels, and contracted slowly and rhythmically, and in the low thumping sound, these blood vessels twitched constantly, spewing out suffocating black smoke......
What can I say, at this moment, the entire wasteland was silent, and all the demons forgot to breathe, only knowing that their eyes were wide open, looking at the nest of monsters that were once doomed to death, and they were reborn strangely, and after a long, long time, Lin Taiping suddenly touched his chin and came to a conclusion with emotion-
"You know? I can now be sure that the demons are really, really, really ...... No aesthetic taste!" (To be continued......)
