When Zhang Yangqing came to his senses, he appeared alone in a strange street.
The streets are empty and lonely, with faded posters hanging on the mottled walls.
The area where Zhang Yangqing is located seems to be shrouded in an invisible haze, and every wisp of wind carries an indescribable chill.
This is not unusual for him who often gets involved in ghost stories.
What struck him as strange was that there was no smell of 'fireworks' in this street.
There is an unspeakable smell of corruption in the air, intertwined with the unique smell of film and cosmetics in the movie city, forming a suffocating mixture.
Zhang Yangqing recalled his identity as a ‘director’, and this strange story was also called [Death Studio].
This is probably a movie city, and the surrounding buildings are used for filming. It is normal that there is no smell of fireworks.
The so-called fireworks smell is the smell produced by cooking and cooking when humans live in it.
After roughly knowing where he was, Zhang Yangqing habitually checked his physical condition before starting to look for rules.
It's okay if I don't check. Once I check, I find something wrong with my body.
Audiences outside the big screen can find that different chosen ones have different expressions.
The faces of the ordinary chosen ones showed a little joy, because they noticed that there was a 'powerful' power in their bodies.
Generally extraordinary people have expressionless faces because their body's strength has not changed much.
Top extraordinary beings like Zhang Yangqing are frowning because the power in their bodies has been weakened a lot.
The expert team soon began to analyze, that is, the world of monsters seems to have adjusted the "initial abilities" of all the chosen ones to the same level.
According to Zhang Yangqing’s previously mentioned ‘theory of the strange world taking care of the ordinary chosen ones’.
It can be concluded that the ordinary chosen ones cannot survive this strange story normally, so the initial ability value of the ordinary chosen ones has been increased.
But everyone is at the same level. An ordinary chosen one is an epic enhancement, while a powerful transcendent is equivalent to a weakening.
If it were the other top chosen ones, the decline in strength would cause some inner uneasiness.
But Zhang Yangqing didn't feel too big. After all, he didn't rely solely on strength to pass the level.
After the physical condition check is completed, the next step is to find the rules.
In addition to a set of clothes, he only wore a hat and a mobile phone.
There are no messages on the phone, not even any contacts.
The rules have not yet appeared, so according to Zhang Yangqing’s experience, the conditions for triggering the rules have not yet been met.
Thinking of this, Zhang Yangqing patrolled around the movie city, looking for his teammate Xiao Xuan.
There are no rules at the beginning, and there are no assistants or other people around to help understand the situation. Judging from this detail, Zhang Yangqing believes that this time the world of ghost stories is probably a more open type.
No prompt information was found around them, so the chosen ones walked around according to their own ideas.
Late in the night, the moonlight is thin, and a figure is constantly being lengthened and shortened under the street lamp.
Zhang Yangqing no longer knows how many streets he has walked, but this place has no end as far as the eye can see.
He also passed by a lot of filming bases. The area he passed at first was supposed to be an area where period dramas were filmed. The style of the buildings was old but not new, so it was more suitable for filming youth struggle-type dramas.
According to the route he took, there was even a large area of a small, uninhabited village where rural love stories and rural ghost stories could be filmed.
Because when Zhang Yangqing passed there, he always felt that the temperature was lower than other places. In those empty rooms, the doors and windows that creaked in the wind always made people think that there might be unclean things inside.
The Chosen Ones are like this. If there are really any terrible creatures there, they have not felt this way yet.
It’s just because you can’t see it that it makes people a little scared.
Next, Zhang Yangqing passed by a crew that was filming. He was not a member of the crew, so he definitely couldn't enter the crew. The crew stopped him outside. He also told Zhang Yangqing that their crew had rented this filming location for many days. If director Zhang Yangqing wanted to rent it, he would have to wait until they finished filming.
Zhang Yangqing didn’t know how they found out that he was the director.
But since there is something abnormal here, there is probably information.
Zhang Yangqing was observing from a nearby place without restraint.
The filming location was an old ‘detached apartment’.
From the actors’ lines in it, Zhang Yangqing can roughly guess that this should be filming a murder scene.
Character 1 is the murderer’s neighbor. The neighbor is a hospitable person who often receives lone travelers and strangers he meets in bars.
But character 1 discovered that some people did not come out for a long time after entering the neighbor's house.
Character 1 didn’t care too much at first. After all, he had to go to work at the subway station during the day. Maybe these people left while he was at work.
Until one time, character 1 discovered that the watch his neighbor was wearing was something worn by a traveler he had met.
Because this traveler once lost this watch in the subway station, and he found it and returned it to this traveler, he had some impression.
The watches may be the same, but the scratches on the straps cannot be exactly the same.
In order to find out all this, character 1 took advantage of the neighbor's departure and sneaked into his home.
After all, we are filming a movie, and at this time we will inevitably encounter scenes of our neighbors coming home.
Because he was far away, Zhang Yangqing didn't know what happened specifically.
Judging from the sound of the collision of props, it seems that there is a farce of chasing and fighting in the dark.
Normally speaking, at this stage of the plot, character 1 will escape death.
The reason why Zhang Yangqing said he was character 1 instead of the protagonist is because he was discovered and killed by his neighbor.
The last movement inside seemed like two people really fighting for their lives.
Character 1's screams didn't sound like they were being staged at all, which made the Chosen Ones stand on end, as if someone was really killing someone inside.
If it is really acting, it is enough to prove how professional the actors are.
When most of the Chosen Ones saw this, they felt that something was not right about this movie city. Perhaps, as the name of this ghost story copy says, it was a death set!
They were also worried about their next task. If they were to film this, would they really need to kill the actors to achieve authenticity?
But Zhang Yangqing was different. He reacted quickly when he saw this.
"Wait, if this is a prompt, then I think Xiao Xuan's identity should be an actor"
According to Zhang Yangqing's guess, Xiao Xuan will probably play a role like character 1. In the 'script' Fight with the murderer, but if the fight fails, he may really be killed.
So as a director, is he trying to save his fellow actors?
After all, if your companion dies in battle, you will die as well.
As long as you think about this, you can continue to extend.
Zhang Yangqing feels that there are two things he needs to do now.
First, find a way to save Xiao Xuan.
Second, find Xiao Xuan.
Without any of these two points, nothing can be done.
Until we find a way, we can only hope that Xiao Xuan will not die in vain.
