"CUT! Let's take a break for a while. We will proceed to the next location."
The Director shouted as soon as they finished their scene in this villa.
The scenario where Ling Mo had accidentally found a hidden well and therefore transported him to the cultivation world ended today. He had just slipped off from the well because of his friend's malice and therefore push him to the bone eater's well intentionally. Thus, this commenced the transition of the setting from the secular world to the cultivation setting.
There is a place where ancient civilization and historical structures were still preserved situated at the edge of the city. It was a favorite tourist destination, especially for foreigners who'd like to see the post-historical famous landmarks of the entire country. This time, the Director rented the entire historical residence for a month just to finish their shooting smoothly and be able to get back to the present situation.
The place is located in the city's suburbs. A few hours of ride from their current place.
Therefore, Su Ci Yi prepared and brought over Ling Mo's necessities, his clothes, and snacks in case he would be hungry on the journey. As per usual, Su Ci Yi rode on Ling Mo's high-end sports car, while the other had their own service.
When she was going to enter, Su Ci Yi saw Jing Sang in Lia's car. He was well behaved and silent for the whole time, yet when he noticed Su Ci Yi's stare, he immediately rolled his eyes on her and turn away.
It didn't long enough to reach the place, and when they came, it was already noon. The set took a rest first and will resume the shooting in the night.
Ling Mo's character came at night, and it was the time before the original soul of the owner had passed away and was replaced by Ling Mo's modern soul.
Master Tang, the old man that was in-charge of Ling Mo's pose and sword skill, showed his current Kung Fu technique on the whole set.
He started with a low rhythm of movement in his upper body. Like a warm-up exercises first and then few seconds after, he started to jump and kicked in the air. His body was light and well-coordinated with the wind.
Su Ci Yi assess his stance. It's not bad for man being a mortal. However, there were loopholes on his movements that only those who experience actual combat Kung Fu would have know.
After a few display rounds of his kung fu, the old man tried to assess Ling Mo's level in fighting. In that way, he would know where he will take a stand in teaching him.
Ling Mo had small knowledge in martial arts and he couldn't win against the old man. It's like fighting a pro against an amateur like him. Ling Mo was brought over to the bottom while being stomped by the feet of the man.
The demonstration was finished in just a few minutes, and there was a thunderclap of the crowd in the air. Ling Mo even admired the man with his fighting ability. He spoke some congratulatory words and mentioned being a fan of him.
The night was set to become even more lively than the day; it's because Ling Mo's segment in the drama already started with swords play.
The costumes and make-up artist were already rushing their way just to accommodate all the cultivator actors of the set.
Su Ci Yi was also getting busy with a lot of requests being demanded by Ling Mo. Aside from that, she also received requests from Lia. She even discovered that Lia's request was more than demanding than Ling Mo. That somehow, if she didn't possess her cultivation core, she will be beat up dead by a tremendous fatigue.
"We'll aren't you a little obedient today?"
Lia had noticed Su Ci Yi's a little pessimistic today. Su Ci Yi was always passive yet, she had this stubborn personality that won't do when she thought it was deemed unworthy of hers. But now, the woman was getting quiet and unprovocative lately.
" Isn't that good to you?" Su Ci Yi was the only one who dared to answer with that sarcastic tone with the manager. Even those who heard her spoke were quite impressed by her direct nature. They just could approach her or else Lia will transfer her hatred towards them.
"Well, it's good. Now, I have a request again. There are incoming dresses that will come tonight. But the delivery would only deliver at the front gate. They don't want to proceed any longer because it was already dark. I need you to get it for me. Ling Mo's costumes and few ornamentals were still there."
Su Ci Yi and the cast have their base in a historic tiles roof Chinese housing; the house was located at the inner part of the whole residence and the main gate was at least a kilometer walk away from their main base.
Since this place is a historical based setting, there were no glistening lights like that in the city. The only light illuminating the road would be a rough-looking torch pinned on the street posts.
Although the place is safe, with the darkness and the antique sentiments the place oozed, a one-person walking will get scared out of her wits. Especially since there seemed traces of breaths and the eerie ambiance was too ghastly to the onlookers.
Su Ci Yi thought that there was nothing wrong with what the woman requested. It's just to get a parcel of clothes and nothing else.
So, she decided to take it and went out alone in the middle of the night.
Behind her back, the onlookers who hear Lia's requests felt sorry for the girl who had just left. There was no moonlight outside, and the road is dark. The era nowadays is dangerous, especially for a single weak woman without a company. There are a lot of dangerous creatures that lurked within the mist of darkness. They could only hope that nothing could happen to their new staff while threading the night.
Shaking their heads for possibilities, they secretly thought that Lia's grudge is something that one couldn't afford to have with.
