Chapter 1554 - 1552: Do You Want to Go Take a Look?
But now they were filming, so they couldn’t worry about much else, and once again rushed towards Lin Feng. To them, the trip wire might have been accidentally stepped on by Lin Feng and broken, so they didn’t pay it any mind. But what they didn’t expect was that as soon as they took a few steps, their ankles were caught by the trip wire, and they were about to fall face down. Luckily, these martial artists had excellent skills, and at the moment of falling, they all managed to roll and draw their swords, preventing themselves from being thrown down!
Lin Feng also didn’t expect these martial artists to react so quickly, and nodded in approval in his mind. The martial artists from Yuegang definitely lived up to their reputation, but this was just the beginning; the fun part was yet to come!
"Pfft! Ah!"
"Kill him!"
"Ah..."
...
The ensuing fight was extraordinarily exciting, but unexpected events that frustrated these martial artists kept occurring. For instance, they would slash their swords aiming to hit Lin Feng, but for some reason, it seemed as though they stepped on a stone and instantly fell down, just when Lin Feng’s blade reached them, and they could do nothing but comply and fall. Or when a sword thrust was about to stab Lin Feng, for some reason, it couldn’t penetrate, and the person found themselves falling in the direction of their thrust, and so on...
In short, all kinds of unexpected things happened, and they truly wanted to release their pent-up frustration from the morning, but none of them managed to touch Lin Feng even once. A few were even kicked away and injured; some had joint sprains, others had scratches on their faces. One particularly unlucky person fell and hit his crotch on a stone, knocking him unconscious for real.
This scene captivated everyone who watched, all mesmerized. They could feel the killing aura from the martial artists, thinking these martial artists were performing so realistically, with the wind from their punches and such speed, making the fight immensely thrilling. What they didn’t know was that these martial artists were truly engaging in combat; there was nothing fake about it. If it hadn’t been Lin Feng, someone else would have been injured by them.
In the blink of an eye, five minutes had passed. The director stood up with an unusually excited expression: "Fantastic, fantastic!"
He was really excited, almost unable to control himself. Every director knew how difficult it was to film a night scene, but Lin Feng’s scene was simply perfect, without any need for another take. Reflecting on this, his excitement was understandable, and he was so thrilled he almost went and hugged Lin Feng.
"Applause, applause, applause..."
At this moment, everyone around also broke into applause. They too were really delighted. Needless to say, the fight just now was a classic, able to counterattack and kill all the assassins in such a chaotic situation; this skill was unparalleled. This level of realism was something no previous scene could achieve, and they thought Lin Feng was truly remarkable, able to create such an effect with such a simple scene—only Lin Feng could have done it!
The Yuegang martial artists also got up from the ground, hobbling and supporting each other to carry the unconscious person to the side for rest. They were really feeling downhearted, unable to figure out what exactly happened just now. All of them were injured, while Lin Feng was completely unharmed, making them feel utterly ashamed. So many professional martial artists couldn’t handle a kid in his twenties, ending up bruised and battered instead—this was truly humiliating, embarrassing to the point it felt like the ridicule had reached the Pacific Ocean!
Liu Tianbao was dumbfounded at this moment as well. He had already given clear instructions before, set up how to deal with Lin Feng, but now Lin Feng was perfectly fine, and it was the martial artists who were injured. What on earth was going on? Why were all the well-laid plans turned upside down? This must have been some kind of ghostly occurrence; otherwise, how could such incredible things be happening?
Just thinking about it made Liu Tianbao’s expression turn grim. A simple matter had turned into this and he really didn’t know how to explain it to Li Yang. The very thought of this outcome gave him a headache...
Li Yang’s face was truly ugly at this moment. If not for the darkness, others might have noticed that his face had turned black, and he was shaking with anger, looking at Lin Feng with eyes full of resentment. It was important to know that every arrangement for tonight’s scene had been discussed with and confirmed by him and Li Yang, with no chance of accidents occurring. Yet, under such circumstances, Lin Feng managed to evade every single sinister move. Was Lin Feng human or ghost? Why did everything change when it came to Lin Feng? This was really strange, unbelievably strange.
Lin Feng observed the applause from those around him and smiled at everyone, then returned to Su Xiaoxi’s side. Su Xiaoxi, seeing Lin Feng return safely and having executed the shot perfectly, was also very pleased, giving Lin Feng a thumbs up. In fact, other people couldn’t see the actions of those martial artists, thinking it was just a film shoot, but being an expert herself, Su Xiaoxi absolutely knew what those actions meant. However, because Lin Feng didn’t say anything, she wouldn’t mention it either. Compared to these people, in front of Lin Feng, they probably weren’t even comparable to ants. Thus, she wasn’t the least bit worried for Lin Feng.
The second scene was for Su Xiaoxi, and spurred by Lin Feng’s encouragement, Su Xiaoxi also completed her scene in one take. They had no more scenes that evening, which were all for other people, so the two of them went to remove their makeup and change clothes. After finishing, they found the nighttime view around them quite nice, so Lin Feng took Su Xiaoxi on a walk through the woods.
Damn Lin Feng, I must make you pay!
A glance filled with resentment watched Lin Feng and Su Xiaoxi’s disappearing figures, as jealousy surged like a volcanic eruption. Li Yang could only think this angrily in his heart, as he still had two more scenes tonight and couldn’t leave, only able to watch Lin Feng and Su Xiaoxi stroll off.
"Meeting you here makes me really happy." Looking at Lin Feng, Su Xiaoxi said with emotion. She was now really very happy. She never thought she’d have this kind of opportunity to walk through the woods with Lin Feng. Even though it was already night, it didn’t dampen the warmth in her heart. She knew Lin Feng was really busy, so she was even more grateful that Lin Feng could accompany her.
"It’s what I should do." Hearing Su Xiaoxi say this, Lin Feng replied with a tone full of apology. Actually, in his heart, he felt guilty as well, but it was something unavoidable. Because Su Xiaoxi was so busy now, and so was he. If it were possible, he’d like Su Xiaoxi to stop work, and he would too, but he clearly knew that was just wishful thinking, something impossible to achieve anytime soon.
"Don’t say that, having you even for a moment already makes me very happy."
"Have you thought about stopping?"
"I have, but not now. Right now, I’ve reached this level, and if I suddenly stop, those who like me won’t be able to take it."
"Hmm, if possible, try not to push yourself so hard, alright?"
"I know, I’m thinking the same..."
...
The two walked through the woods, enjoying this momentary peace—a rarity for them—so they confessed their thoughts to each other, easy and peaceful...
After they unknowingly wandered around for several hours, Lin Feng used his Divine Sense to learn that the crew’s work had been completed. He and Su Xiaoxi returned to the crew, and then went back with them to the hotel. Just like the previous night, Lin Feng floated through Su Xiaoxi’s window when no one was watching.
At midnight, just when everyone was asleep, suddenly the mountains started to shake, causing the hotel where they were staying to feel like it was experiencing an earthquake, waking everyone inside the hotel. Nobody knew what was happening, and since there had been a landslide on the mountain before, everyone was quite frightened, afraid that this time the hotel would also be buried by a landslide.
In moments, the hotel lights turned on, and hallways filled with shouting and panic. Nobody expected to encounter such a situation; even if it wasn’t a landslide, an earthquake alone would be dangerous. If the hotel collapsed, wouldn’t they all be in danger?
"What’s happening!"
"Damn it, what the hell is going on!"
"Why is there another earthquake here, can this hotel still be lived in!"
...
Before long, a crowd had gathered in the hotel lobby, all of them extremely angry, grumbling at the hotel staff. Yesterday’s scene had been terrifying, and they really couldn’t handle such an event. Had it not been too dark outside, they might have already fled the hotel.
Similarly, the hotel management was also really frustrated. They didn’t know what was happening either; there had never been an earthquake before. They wondered what was going on in these past two days, why earthquakes kept happening. This was killing their business. But the situation had already happened, and even though they knew nothing, for the hotel’s sake, they could only come forward to try calming the panicked crowd in the lobby.
"What’s going on, do you know?" Su Xiaoxi asked Lin Feng calmly, nestled in his arms without any fear. In her view, unusual events always had strange causes. If anything had happened, she figured Lin Feng would know. That’s right, in Su Xiaoxi’s heart, Lin Feng was omnipotent!
"Do you want to see?" Rather than answer, Lin Feng smiled and asked Su Xiaoxi.
"Sure, take me with you." Hearing Lin Feng’s question, Su Xiaoxi immediately understood that Lin Feng indeed knew what was going on, so she quickly agreed. She wasn’t afraid for her safety with Lin Feng around—she couldn’t possibly get hurt. And since Lin Feng took the initiative to say this, it meant he had full confidence, so at this moment, there was no way Su Xiaoxi would refuse.
