DSF Chapter 24

 Zong Qi stood there, feeling the familiar feeling of time regressing.

The surrounding scenery quickly receded like running water, condensing into gorgeous patches of light and shadow, spinning around him.

For Zong Qi, this big script shooting is just the beginning.

He didn't know what role the director system could play in a big script, so he had to join the team of a big script to follow the filming and explore it bit by bit.

Just like this reshoot, Zong Qi does not have enough information and cannot guarantee that everyone can be saved. Including the time when he chose to reshoot, it was almost always a blind audition.

It's just that if we don't reshoot it, the movie will end soon.

[You have returned to the designated plot point]

[Note: You only have ten minutes to reshoot. After the reshoot is completed, you will return to the current time period. The subsequent plot will be directly deduced from the script and cannot be changed again, including possible deaths]

Finally, a cold system prompt sounded, and the rapidly changing scenery stopped.

Zong Qi stood by the well again.

He chose to go back half an hour.

At this time, he just happened to perform a chase battle with Xiao Hong, and was at the right moment to scare all the actors out of the well.

At the same time, the system message rang again.

[The third act of "The Deserted Village" begins, one hour countdown]

And the three values ​​​​on Zong Qi's pupils were all reversed. Not only did the scream value return to the one thousand and two at the beginning of this scene, but the current surviving actors also returned to the ranks of 7.

This is the only chance, and absolutely no accident should happen to any actor.

Zong Qi took a deep breath.

The frozen scene began to flow.

"What's going on? Why are there still Gu insects?! Isn't the coffin already closed?"

The villagers outside held torches and stamped on the ground crazily, trampling to death one by one the Gu insects that had just emerged.

The leader yelled from the side: "It's the mother Gu. Find out where the mother Gu is!"

In a panic, Zong Qi put his arms on the ground, turned over and ran outside.

He grabbed Master Wang, who was lying on the ground with his hands tied and a look of horror on his face, and pushed him toward the villagers: "The mother's poison is on him, feed him tobacco quickly!"

Master Wang shivered and backed away, yelling: "You fart! Stop slandering others. You just don't like me and you want to kill me."

However, the next second, he was cursed and stuffed with grass. The nauseating feeling rushed from the stomach to the esophagus, and he vomited with a loud sound.

Mixed with the unknown vomit, there were densely packed zombies.

Zong Qi no longer knew the subsequent reactions of the villagers. He was now racing against time, running for his life towards the goddess's house.

"Dong dong dong!"

The goddess who had just returned to the house to rest doubtfully put down the book in her hand and walked over to open the door: "What's the matter?"

As a result, before she could finish her words, Zong Qi thrust a golden phoenix into her hands.

"I'm sorry, there is another one that I can't give back to you right now. But you must take care of this phoenix and don't let yourself bleed casually, do you understand?"

Now that time is running out, Zong Qi doesn't know and can't explain to the goddess why her blood has no effect on the corpse poison even though she is a descendant of a great witch.

Judging from the attitude of the village leader before the reshoot, most likely he didn’t know. I'm afraid there is another hidden reason behind this matter.

But now that Zong Qi has returned the golden phoenix to the goddess, even if her blood is taken by the villagers, the Gu insects will not get closer to her, at least her life is safe.

Goddess: "Huh?"

The vigilance and complexity that appeared on her face when she saw Zong Qi were all replaced by confusion. She looked at his back as he hurried away. After hesitating for a long time, she put the golden phoenix back on her head.

On the other side, Huang Mao helped Long Aotian and the two hide in the earthen house.

Their performance value is not enough, and now they are fighting with their legs while walking.

Long Aotian has never experienced a death without insufficient interpretation value. Now he is still hoping that he can pass the test, but Huang Mao is trembling all over.

He knows very well what kind of death will happen if the deduction value is not reached.

Many of the deaths in the third act are as unexpected and irregular as "Death Comes".

"us"

They had just closed the door and were about to close the window when something wrapped in cloth was suddenly thrown in from outside.

Zong Qi shouted outside the window, and by the way, he helped them close the window thoughtfully: "Take this, this can prevent the Gu insects from getting close!"

The two people in the room looked at each other, recognized the sound of the workers, and quickly opened the door.

However, there was only a gloomy sky outside the door, and no one was there.

The black-haired young man was still running fast.

After he reminded the villagers that the mother Gu might be in Master Wang's body, and returned the pair of golden phoenixes to the goddess and Long Aotian and the others, only the last two minutes were left in ten minutes.

One last thing left!

From a distance, Zong Qi saw the repairman climbing out of the well with Anna. The two of them were standing there, the former putting his hand on the latter's shoulder, talking as if he was talking.

The repairman whispered: "Ana, me"

last minute.

Zong Qi rushed up like a tornado and slapped the repairman: "Let her go!"

He feels like the hero of a hot-blooded comic, running around the set all the time, working exhaustingly, in order to prevent the originally determined fate and reverse the situation.

This incident also told him a truth.

That means pie from the sky is definitely not a good thing! !

[Hypnosis has been activated]

The repairman intuitively felt something was wrong. The force exerted by his hand suddenly stopped and his pupils became dilated.

Before that, he subconsciously pushed forward.

It was at this moment that Zong Qi tightly grasped Anna's hand that fell backward.

He saw the rapidly rising deductive value on the other person's body, and when he pulled the person up suddenly, the system also sent a prompt.

[It’s time to reshoot]

Everything around him solidified again, including the hand Zong Qi held.

The area outside where he stood turned into huge pieces of video tape, repeatedly rotating forward and moving forward bit by bit.

The black-haired young man's chest kept rising and falling, and he stood there and exhaled loudly.

At the moment when the system prompted him, the current number of surviving actors was still fixed at 7, with no sign of decreasing.

Fortunately, Anna didn't fall into the bottom of the well. Combining the hair he saw on the poster and what Qi Ningzhou said, most of the things at the bottom of the well came out.

During the ten minutes of this reshoot, Zong Qi thought he had done his best.

There was Xiaohong watching over the crow. The yellow-haired dragon Aotian got the golden phoenix. He took care of the goddess and the villagers. Next, he could only see how the system would deduce.

In any case, the cause of this mistake lies with him, and he is also at fault.

Zong Qi doesn't want others to pay for his mistakes, he just wants to be well.

【You have returned to the correct time】

The young man took a deep breath and opened his eyes.

There are still five minutes left in the countdown to the end of the third act. There are currently 7 surviving actors, a scream value of 3560, and a plot exploration rate of 42%.

He was still holding Anna's hand, but it was different from the sky before the reshoot. There was silence all around, and the light beam projected above the well mouth was cold and dim.

The bluestone road underfoot stretches into the distance, and the tomb door is ajar in the darkness.

Although it was noisy above the wellhead, fortunately, there were no screams or cries of pain. Instead, a few words could be heard from afar: "The mother Gu spit it out!" "He finally spit it out!" "Hurry up and burn the mother Gu to death!"

It seems that the mother voodoo is really on Master Wang. Fortunately, he paid attention to what the repairman and Huang Mao said before.

Zong Qi breathed a sigh of relief.

If the mother voodoo is removed, at least the situation with the zombie voodoo growing wildly outside can be brought under basic control. In other words, the village was saved and was not completely destroyed because of his and Xiaohong's tricks.

but--

"I wonder how I ended up at the bottom of the well. Could it be that I failed to hold Anna and accidentally fell down?"

Zong Qi was a little confused.

Unlike his last reshoot, which had a one-day gap in the timeline, the time that passed before and after this reshoot was only half an hour.

Just now, he urgently hypnotized the repairman to hold Anna, but unfortunately the hypnosis time was only three seconds. Maybe after three seconds, the repairman came to his senses and pushed the two of them down together?

Zong Qi mentally compared his small arms and legs with the repairman's burly figure, and felt that it was not impossible.

But now is not the time to think about this. The most important thing now is to get out of the well.

Although Zong Qi is not afraid of the ghost in the well, Anna is still there after all, and he has given away all the golden phoenixes in his hand, so he cannot guarantee her safety.

"Anna, hurry up, you go up first, we don't want to stay at the bottom of the well, otherwise it will be later."

He turned around and greeted Anna, wanting her to go up first.

However, just behind him, Anna stood there quietly, her head hanging down, one hand holding her belly, her hair disheveled, sad and sad.

She sobbed softly, and her voice gradually changed in tone: "My child, my child."

Zong Qi saw that her deduction value had reached 100%.

It’s even higher than the 92% before reshooting? Directly capped? !

Zong Qi was shocked.

He remembered that he had received a reminder from the system that Anna was deeply involved in the drama, and when he saw the appearance in front of her, he felt deep worry in his heart.

This is only his first time making a movie, so he doesn't know what impact it will have if he gets too involved in the movie.

But I also know that there may be side effects.

"Ana, Ana. Are you okay? Wake up quickly. Let's go up first."

Zong Qi put his hand on her shoulder, anxious and calling repeatedly.

Before he chose to reshoot, he clearly remembered a pale hand on the edge of the well.

Although he didn't see it clearly, Zong Qi knew that it must be the big guy Qi Ningzhou mentioned, the female ghost that the bloody corpse was extremely afraid of.

He must take Anna up quickly, otherwise

Zong Qi turned around and stared closely at the bright light on the well. Something flashed in his mind, and his pupils suddenly tightened.

His hands were cold, and he suddenly realized something.

No. wrong.

If Master Wang had a mother voodoo in his body, then it should have been Anna and Master Wang who died in the first place!

If Master Wang dies, then Anna——

A cold and plaintive female voice sounded. The woman in the white dress raised her head and pressed against the back of his head, as if whispering.

“Give me back my baby.”
