The daily life of the crew of "Beasts".

Chapter 176: The Main Story of Brotherly Slaughter

That night, Puss in Boots tossed and turned in bed, thinking about the script he had just studied that day.

In a few days, they will be filming the main storyline. According to her plan, Walnut realizes that men and women should not touch each other and decides to sleep separately from Fuzai. Before the new box is finished, he will temporarily sleep with the Four-Faced Beast. That night, he enters the Four-Faced Beast's dream and sees the Pixiu brothers killing each other.

However, there's a problem: Bai Jie doesn't have an adult form yet, so this scene of brothers fighting each other can't be filmed. Even hiring a stunt double won't work; the requirements are too high. They need to be skilled in transformation techniques and able to act. Besides, to achieve the best effect, it has to be filmed practically, which means they also need to be able to fight.

Puss in Boots rolled over again, thinking about how to take the picture, and gradually drifted off to sleep.

……

A few days later, she arrived at the film set by car, and the many busy staff members immediately put down their work to greet her.

"Good director!"

"The director is here."

"Alright, alright, you guys get back to work." Puss in Boots waved his paw, and the crew, following orders, continued their work. Cameras, reflectors—they packed up the equipment needed for filming and prepared to head up the mountain. At that moment, the actors arrived.

"Hello, Director." Bai Jie jumped off Xiao Yun, and Bi Xie nodded in greeting as he followed behind.

"It's great to ward off evil spirits! By the way, where's Pipi?" Puss in Boots walked over but didn't find Tianlu.

"Up in the sky."

"what?"

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah!"

Before Puss in Boots could ask again, Tianlu's voice truly came from the sky. She only felt a blur before her eyes, and then with a loud bang, Tianlu appeared, her head plunging into the ground headfirst.

The staff were all startled and looked over. A few even took out their phones to take a couple of pictures. Then... they continued with their own tasks, seemingly used to it.

"Tianlu?" Even Bixie seemed unfazed, showing no reaction whatsoever to his younger brother's fall.

The big blue tail that had fallen outside flicked, and Tianlu braced itself on all fours and pulled hard, popping its head out.

"!" A familiar roar rang out as he angrily looked around, but the culprit had already vanished. Tianlu then turned his malevolent gaze to Baijie, "Baijie! I knew you'd get me if you weren't here!"

Bai Jie, feeling guilty, pretended not to have heard anything and looked up at the sky. Tian Lu, seeing this, became even angrier and pounced on him, baring his teeth and claws, yelling, "Yaaaaah! Bai Jie!"

"Ugh! Tianlu, what are you doing? No! Wait a minute!"

The two brothers started fighting, and before long, Bai Jie was once again pinned down and wantonly ravaged.

When Tianlu got up, his hair was disheveled and he looked like he had been played with and ruined.

Pixie stepped forward to help his younger brother groom his fur, but was stopped by Puss in Boots. "Wait a minute, this way, we'll need it for filming later. Don't bother grooming it, let's go."

During this period of commotion, Walnut Lucky Boy and the Four-Unlikes Rabbit God also arrived.

"Hey Rabbit Lord, what brings you here? You're not supposed to be in any scenes today?" Tianlu asked, puzzled.

"Ahem, I'm here to deliver the four-legged creature. By the way, what happened to Little White?" Rabbit Lord immediately changed the subject after answering.

Tianlu glanced back and felt a little guilty. "No, it's nothing. Oh, let's go quickly."

Once all the actors arrived, Puss in Boots called out and led the entire crew up the mountain. When they arrived at the Deer Man's shop, she first took Walnut and the Four-Faced Beast to film, while the three brothers went to the other side to get their makeup done.

TuTu led them to the dressing room, where they would film a scene of the three brothers killing each other. Tianlu would appear in his original form, while Bixie would wear red contact lenses to show his loss of self and madness.

His yellow eyes were covered in scarlet, which, combined with the murderous aura he had developed on the battlefield, made him look ferocious and terrifying.

The three beasts circled him twice, and Bai Jie couldn't help but exclaim, "Bixie, you can stop children from crying at night like this!"

Bixie shook his head, feeling a little strange wearing colored contact lenses.

Finally, there's Bai Jie's makeup. He's young and doesn't have an adult form yet, so finding a suitable stand-in would be troublesome, and using post-production special effects would be expensive. Puss in Boots thought it over and decided to have him appear with serious injuries, unable to maintain his original form, until the end. Therefore, a tragic makeup was needed.

TuTu took out a tomato juice, and after a short while, a wounded Bai Jie appeared.

His once-white fur was now stained crimson, and liquid slid down his wound onto his leg, eventually leaving a red mark on the floor. Bai Jie turned to look at himself and asked, "How are you?"

Tianlu leaned forward and licked the fake wound, then his eyes lit up. "Sweet?"

"Get out of my way!" Bai Jie slapped him away, leaving a tomato juice claw mark on Tian Lu's face, clearly still holding a grudge.

……

The three brothers came out of the dressing room, and Walnut and Four-Faced Beast had just finished filming. They were both startled when they saw Bai Jie's appearance.

"Mwah! What's wrong with you, Baibaijie?"

"What's going on here?"

"It's nothing, we just went to put on some makeup," Tianlu said, licking the tomato juice off his face.

Walnut, who was about to burst into tears, held back his tears upon hearing this. He trembled as he sniffed the air, only stopping his trembling when he smelled the tomato.

"Oh, it was fake after all." His voice softened noticeably, and he couldn't resist giving Bai Jie a lick. "Mwah, so sweet."

Bai Jie: Why does this line sound so familiar?

"Hey! Are you guys done? We're here to film!" Puss in Boots' voice came from afar, and the three brothers quickly responded and ran over.

A huge backdrop depicting a snowy landscape stood upright, with a fan on the side, its blades at least a meter or two long. In front of the backdrop was a camera, and Puss in Boots, the three brothers, and Walnut were discussing how to film next.

"Have you guys ever fought before?" Puss in Boots asked Tianlu Bixie.

Both beasts fell into deep thought; the memories of the past were too long, and they both needed to think it over carefully. After a moment, the two brothers exchanged a glance as if they understood each other's meaning, and then Tianlu nodded while Bixie shook his head.

Ok?

The two brothers looked at each other again, their eyes filled with confusion, as if they were saying...

Have it?

There's none?

"Did they actually get into a fight?"

Upon hearing this, the two brothers instinctively acted at the same time. Tianlu shook his head, while Bixie nodded, and then they stared at each other in bewilderment!

Puss in Boots slapped his forehead. "I'll add a restriction first. Fights like the one between Pipi and Baijie before don't count as fighting."

The Hundred Solutions to Being Shot Unnecessarily: Huh?

If it's not that you're going too far, then it's obvious that I'm being bullied on one side!

"Wait a minute, Bixie?" Tianlu scratched his head, puzzled. "I remember you hit me before, so why were you shaking your head at first?"

"Ahem, the director was asking about the fight scene. I only hit you because you provoked me." Bixie glanced to the side, feeling guilty about talking about hitting his younger brother.

"Alright, alright, forget about it and let's take the pictures." Puss in Boots waved his paw.

Soon, she led her three brothers off the stage, leaving only Walnut standing there. The fan started, its blades slowly rotating and gradually accelerating. When it reached its maximum speed, a powerful gust of air swept out. Walnut's fur flew wildly, and he could only lean forward to maintain his balance, raising his claws to protect his eyes.

"Action!"

As soon as the starting signal came, the small clouds that flew into the sky immediately began to fall in large quantities of snowflakes, which were then swept up by the air currents and turned into blizzards that hit the filming location.

"Huh? Where is this? Is this a dream of some strange creature?" Walnut looked around in confusion.

The staff behind the fan adjusted the speed, and the wind suddenly increased, causing Walnut to stumble backward. "Wow! What a lot of snow!"

Puss in Boots winked at the three Pixiu in the waiting positions. The three brothers understood, and at this moment, a wolf demon who had undergone transformation and makeup walked up. He looked exactly like Bai Jie in his adult form.

The three brothers appeared in a scene where Bai Jie was knocked away and seriously injured, turning into an energy-saving mode. Originally, Huang Jiu was supposed to be the one, but considering that he was fragile, he was replaced.

Tianlu Bixie and the wolf demon leaped up, and the three beasts entered the frame from above in a fighting posture.

With a surge of murderous intent, Bixie roared and kicked the wolf demon away.

"Roar!"

"Bai Jie!" Tianlu exclaimed in surprise, but in the blink of an eye, Bixie viciously bit down.

"Ugh! Aaaaaah!"

"Crack!"

Puss in Boots shouted, followed by a series of screams. Tianlu and Bixie, who had just landed, were stunned and stopped moving. They felt that their acting was fine, so why did they suddenly yell "cut"?

"Bixie! Even if he's just a stand-in, you can't kick him so hard! He's vomiting blood!" Puss in Boots and the rest of the crew rushed onto the stage to help the wolf demon up, where a pool of blood remained on the ground.

He shakily clutched his waist, his lips trembling as he uttered, "My waist!"

Yue Tian gave it a thumbs up and said that the line seemed to be mine, but he would lend it to her first.

The film crew had an accident during filming, and the wolf demon was rushed to Dr. Hua's clinic. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they learned that the flower bird's examination and diagnosis showed that it was nothing serious and that it would recover after some rest.

"I'm telling you, you knew that wasn't your brother, so you went all out to kill him?" In the clinic lobby, Puss in Boots complained, clutching his pounding heart.

Bixie looked guilty, cold sweat beading on his forehead. He had forgotten that it was just an ordinary wolf demon, not as resilient as a divine beast...
