Chapter 1 Location Squad
Nanze City, a first-tier city in the south of Canglan Star Bailing Country, is close to the South China Sea and has many lakes and mountains in its territory.
Chuanyun County, which is subordinate to Nanze City, has a large lake near the Chongshan Mountain Range on the west side, called Xingyue Lake.
There is an island in the middle of the lake in the middle of the lake, because there are clouds and mist around the island for at least 12 hours a day, so it is named Yunzhong Island.
The island is high in the west and low in the east, and there is a small town called Tianyun Town in the east facing the lake plain, where hundreds of families and nearly 1,000 people settle and live.
To the west, there is a high valley, sparsely populated, grassy and deep forests, and wild beasts in the forest from time to time.
But there is a low peak at the corner of the big mountain on the west side, there is an ancient Taoist temple of a small scale on the peak, but because the pilgrims are scarce, the people in the temple are few, no one cares to maintain, except for the main hall, they have been deserted, and some are dilapidated.
On this day, the sun rises in the east, and there are still faint clouds and mist on the island that have not dissipated, at this time, a team of people walked out of the west gate of Tianyun Town, this is a group of film and television crew sent by the location personnel, because the crew is shooting a series of TV series of Xianxia, so it values this remote island, which still maintains the "antique" feudal town, but in fact, it is because it is too backward, there are no high-rise buildings in the town, and the ancient buildings of the last century are still retained.
This group of location team is composed of five people, one is an aboriginal in the local town, who was hired as a tour guide by the location team because he is familiar with the local situation, and the remaining four people include the assistant director of the filming crew, the staff who do errands, the cameraman who provides advice and the security personnel hired to protect everyone, after all, it is in a relatively desolate and remote place, so the people who come are basically men.
Due to financial reasons, in addition to finding a suitable ancient town for filming, there is also a place with beautiful mountains and rivers next to the ancient town to create a shooting scene for the protagonist of the TV series.
Because I heard from the townspeople that the scenery of Baiyun Mountain here is good, a group of people hired a local tour guide to rush to Baiyun Mountain early in the morning.
A dirt road that is not wide but fairly smooth leads from Tianyun Town to the foot of Baiyun Mountain.
"Director Chen, you see, this is Baiyun Mountain, although Baiyun Mountain is far less majestic than the Niutou Mountain behind, it is the closest to the town, the traffic is also convenient, and there is a Baiyun Temple on the mountain, which is very in line with your requirements for this scene. The tour guide walked in front and said to Director Chen, who was the leader of the team.
Baiyun Temple, in the previous dynasty is also a famous grand view, but when the world entered the new century, under the instructions of the Taizu of this dynasty, all kinds of feudal superstitious thinking have been overthrown, on the basis of all the emphasis on science, people in the new era have long lost the awe and belief in gods and Buddhas and the like.
Baiyun Temple, fortunately, is located in a remote island, far away from the center of the storm, although it has been affected by fame and has also been hit, but the people in remote areas, especially some old people, still believe in these gods and monsters, so this Baiyun Temple is still safe to survive.
But after some hardships, the Baiyun Temple also fell into decay, and it was no longer as prosperous as before, only some devout believers often came here to worship the gods and donate some incense money.
"Well, it's good, but it's really too desolate here, will there be danger, after all, safety comes first, in case the crew comes over, there will be trouble if there are beasts and poisonous snakes biting people. "Although Director Chen is very satisfied with the environment here, it is always difficult to guarantee safety in a remote place.
"No, no, Director Chen, there are no beasts in Baiyun Mountain here, I have lived here for more than 20 years, and I really haven't seen or heard of the deeds of beasts hurting people, and the Taoist of Baiyun Temple on the mountain, although there are not many people, they often patrol the surroundings to expel beasts, so in this area of Baiyun Mountain, everyone can rest assured, there will be no problem. But it's different further inside, after Baiyun Mountain, there are a lot of beasts near Niutou Mountain, but everyone can rest assured, as long as you don't get close to Niutou Mountain, then it's not a big problem. The tour guide explained busily.
"Well, it's good if there are no beasts, safety first, although our drama is not very valued by investors, resulting in tight funds, so we can't include scenic spots for filming, but safety still needs to be paid attention to, wait for Master Ye to see if there are any dangerous places or situations around, you are an expert in this area, just work hard for you, Master Ye." ”
Director Chen looked at the wide stone steps of the mountain road, the towering mountain gate and the buildings behind it, and felt very satisfied, but looking at the endless mountains and rivers behind Baiyun Mountain, the safety problem still gave him a headache. After all, there are sparsely populated people and many wild beasts here, unlike the Central Plains, where the beasts on the mountains are basically difficult to find.
"Yes, Director Chen. The muscular security guard responded.
"Well, okay, by the way, Xu Lin, how do you see the scenery here, can you be the exterior location of the Fairy Sword crew?" Director Chen asked Xu Lin, the cameraman who was looking around.
Xu Lin put one hand across his chest, the other hand vertical, his fingers touched his chin, faced Director Chen's inquiry, thought about it and asked the guide on the side: "Xiaolu, ask you something, is the Baiyun Temple on this mountain a descendant temple or a jungle temple?"
Listening to Xu Lin's words, Director Chen couldn't help but look at the path.
"I don't know this very well, but I heard the old man here say that the land planted by the villagers at the foot of this mountain basically belongs to the Baiyun Temple, and the Taoist priests in the view are also passed down from generation to generation, I have a distant cousin who practices in this Baiyun Temple, he is directly accepted by the old master as a disciple of the mantle, it is said that he will be the next master of the temple in the future, so I think this Baiyun Temple should be the temple of descendants!"
Xiao Lu is not very clear about these things, after all, at his age, the beginning of sensible is the most active time to break feudalism and superstition, knowing these situations is still the result of his natural curiosity and love to inquire.
"Oh, that's the descendant temple, if it's a jungle temple, then it's not allowed to collect disciples privately, and the temple property can't be inherited, it belongs to all the Taoists in the world. Only the temple of descendants has its own temple property and can accept disciples to preach. It's just that I don't know if it's the Quanzhen Sect or the Righteous Sect above?" Xu Lin muttered.
"Does it make a difference?" Director Chen asked, not quite understanding these things.
"It's better if it's a Zhengyi sect, but if it's a Quanzhen sect, it's a bit troublesome, and generally Quanzhen Taoist priests are very taboo about the outside world disturbing their practice, so they may not let us shoot here. "Xu Lin actually doesn't know too much, but he just knows that the Quanzhen Sect emphasizes internal cultivation and strict precepts, and he is definitely reluctant to come over for filming with the crew, while the Zhengyi Sect pays attention to conforming to nature and pursuing the unity of heaven and man, and is not as strict as the Quanzhen School in terms of precepts, so it is easier to speak.
"It's really a bit troublesome...... Director Chen crossed his hands on his chest, thinking about how to solve it, and finally found a suitable place, but fell to the last step, and was very unwilling in his heart.
The guide on the side looked at the two of them thinking about each other, and couldn't help but step forward and say, "Two, are you still up this mountain?"
