Before the filming officially started, the crew members moved to their locations, and Ji Xingyao's location was a slightly flat open space halfway up the mountain.
To say it is flat is only relative. In an area of less than ten square meters, there are a few sparse pillars, which facilitate the movement of the camera and the positioning of the actors during filming.
The extras' scenes were filmed at the foot of Zhushan Mountain, while Ji Xingyao was halfway up the mountain.
The extras' scenes were nearing the end, so Director Yang asked her to arrive at the shooting location early and wait, and they would catch up soon.
"okay."
The halfway point of the mountain was a bit far, and Ji Xingyao was a bit slow to climb up after putting on makeup and wearing a costume, which was why Director Yang asked her to go up early.
Thunder rumbled in the distance, and dark clouds quickly covered the sky.
The mountain was covered with dense bamboo forests, and the lighting was already poor. Ji Xingyao failed to notice the deteriorating weather in time.
Director Yang looked up at the sky, then at the government's recent extreme weather warning, and said helplessly, "We can't shoot today. Everyone, go home."
After hearing Director Yang's words, the crew began carrying cameras and collecting props. After everyone returned to the crew hotel before the rainstorm, Doudou, who was waiting at the hotel, asked the assistant director, "Where's Star? Why can't I see her?"
Wow!
At this moment, a bolt of lightning struck, illuminating Director Yang's pale face.
"Oh no, Star is still on the mountain!"
At the same time, Ji Xingyao, who was hurrying on her way, also noticed something strange. The bamboo forest suddenly turned dark, and she could no longer see anything five meters away.
"Director Yang! Director Yang! Assistant Director, where are you?" Ji Xingyao turned around and shouted.
No reply.
She began to panic: "Is anyone there? Is anyone there?"
The continuous thunder drowned out Ji Xingyao's voice, and she was like a half-blind person groping in the dense bamboo forest.
Crackling.
In the blink of an eye, heavy rain poured down.
Ji Xingyao was unable to open his eyes due to the heavy rain, and rainwater filled his nostrils with every breath.
She was wearing a long, thin costume, and in just five seconds, her clothes were completely soaked.
The cool gauze clung to her body, restraining her legs.
The yellow mud on the soles of my feet became wet and muddy after being soaked by the rain. The soles of my shoes were covered with thick mud, and I slipped with every step.
The bamboo forest was dense and the light was already insufficient, not to mention the overwhelming dark clouds, which made the entire sky and earth turn white and black. There were identical bamboos everywhere, and she completely lost her direction.
Fortunately, Ji Xingyao brought her cell phone with her. She took out the phone that had been wet by the rain for a long time, and slid it several times before she could barely turn on the phone. Before she could open the address book, a strange phone call came in.
She quickly pressed the answer button.
"Where are you?"
The rumbling thunder and terrifying lightning made Ji Xingyao unable to hear the other person's voice at all, but she felt that it should be a crew member.
"I'm in Zhushan." Ji Xingyao shouted into the phone: "It's too dark in the mountains. I'm lost and can't find the direction."
"Don't be afraid, I'm coming."
A bolt of lightning exploded twenty meters away from Ji Xingyao, and the bamboo that was struck fell down instantly, with charred smoke rising from it.
Ji Xingyao was so frightened that he trembled and stood there breathing rapidly.
This sudden rainstorm was so heavy that Ji Xingyao had almost never encountered it before.
The bamboo mountain is very large, surrounded by bamboos of varying thicknesses. When the bamboos sway in the heavy rain, they look like thin human figures.
In an instant, goose bumps appeared all over my body.
Ji Xingyao tried to walk down the mountain, but the ground was too slippery and she fell every two steps, making it almost impossible for her to move forward.
To steady herself, she held the nearest bamboo tightly with both hands.
The rain on her face flowed like a waterfall. She wiped her face and decided to call Director Yang.
After finally turning on her cell phone, she found that there was no signal. She made ten calls in a row, but all were busy.
In this situation, Ji Xingyao was really panicked.
She cherishes her life very much. She is rich, beautiful, educated and has close friends. It is the best time of her life. If something happens to her, she will be very unwilling to accept it.
How to do how to do!
The sky is not responding to the call, and the earth and the earth are not working.
Ji Xingyao can't rely on anyone, she can only save herself.
There was no point in staying where she was, so she decided to go down the mountain.
As the saying goes, it is easy to go up the mountain but difficult to go down, let alone a loess mountain covered with mud and water.
The gathered rainwater flowed down from the top of the mountain at a very fast speed, and her feet were very, very slippery.
Ji Xingyao's long skirt was too cumbersome, so she took off the outermost layer of her long gown and tied a knot at the bottom of the skirt so that at least she wouldn't trip over it when walking.
She wandered around the mountain alone for a long time. It was already dark and she couldn't see her hand in front of her. She originally wanted to use the flashlight on her mobile phone, but the phone had been soaked in water for a long time and could not be turned on.
"Hiss, hiss."
Ji Xingyao was shivering with cold and had lost count of how many times he had fallen. Two of his long nails were broken and the pain was excruciating.
However, at this time, she could no longer tell where the pain was worse.
The heavy rain lasted for more than an hour and there was still no sign of stopping.
Originally, Ji Xingyao would shout a few times from time to time, trying to attract other people's attention. Later, too much cold water poured into her throat, and it felt hot and painful whenever she opened her mouth. She could no longer shout.
Her hands and feet were so numb that they didn't feel like her own. She had no direction or goal, only a vague idea of going down the mountain.
Suddenly, Ji Xingyao missed a step and couldn't keep his balance and rolled down.
It’s over.
She thought desperately in her heart.
After rolling twice, she seemed to hit something soft.
Is it bamboo? No, bamboo is not that thick, nor is it soft.
Ji Xingyao subconsciously stretched out his hand, but was caught off guard by a pair of hands.
She looked up blankly and realized that there was a person in front of her.
It was very dark, and the only natural light was obscured by dense bamboo leaves. She only knew that the man was wearing a black raincoat, and the wide brim of his hat covered his face, leaving only a vague chin.
With the help of the other party, Ji Xingyao stood up from the ground.
"Thank you." Ji Xingyao had used up all his strength in the past hour, and the word "thank you" was so soft that it was almost inaudible.
The man brought a backpack. He took out a black raincoat of the same style from the bag and put it on Ji Xingyao.
"Are you a police officer?"
Ji Xingyao felt that if Director Yang couldn't find her, he might call the police. In such extreme weather, the only people who would go up the mountain to look for someone were probably the police.
The other person didn't say anything, but lowered his head and concentrated on putting the raincoat on her.
When Ji Xingyao wanted to look up at him, his head was suddenly covered by the wide brim of his hat.
The man tied the brim of her hat tightly and walked downstairs holding Ji Xingyao's hand tightly.
The mountain road was still muddy and slippery, but the man in front of him walked with unusually firm steps.
He always used his broad back to catch Ji Xingyao when she was about to fall.
"Thank you."
Along the way, Ji Xingyao said thank you countless times, but the other party didn't say a word.
After walking for more than twenty minutes, Ji Xingyao finally saw the twinkling lights at the foot of the mountain and could vaguely hear someone shouting.
"Star!"
