The daily life of the crew of "Beasts".

Chapter 21: Day 1 of Filming

A gentle breeze was blowing and the sun was shining brightly. Bai Jie and Tian Lu were lying on the green lawn, basking in the sun. Today was the first day of filming for the crew. Bai Jie and Tian Lu had arrived early. One of them was always full of energy, and the other was too excited. They both got up especially early today.

Bixie didn't come because he wasn't in any scenes today, while Baijie came purely to join in the fun.

Lying on the lawn, Bai Jie was flipping through the script in his hand. This was something Puss in Boots had given out when we gathered that day, telling them to go home and take a good look at it, and to memorize the lines as well.

I've been looking at the script from Tianlu for the past couple of days. The plot only goes up to the appearance of Totoro, and there hasn't even been a petting contest yet. It seems like the later plot hasn't been planned yet.

As Bai Jie flipped through the script, reviewing this scene for the nth time, he could even recite the lines by heart. As he looked at it, a question suddenly popped into Bai Jie's mind.

"Tianlu".

"Huh? What's wrong, Bai Jie?" Tianlu, who was chewing on a blade of grass, turned around and looked at him in confusion.

"Where did you get the nickname Pipi?" Baijie asked curiously. She had gotten used to the name from the comics and didn't think much of it before, but now that she thought about it carefully, it was unbelievable that Tianlu, with his personality, could accept a name like Pipi.

"Oh, that's it." Tianlu tilted his head when he heard Baijie's question. "That's what Old Man Jiang called me back then. At first, I didn't like the name, but I got used to it after a while."

Bai Jie Liao Ran: I knew it was some strategist who dared to name a dignified Pixiu a dog. Oh, it's Jiang Ziya. Well, never mind. Hmm... By the way, does the Four-Unlikes also have a nickname like Pipi?

Speak of the devil and he appears; just as Bai Jie was thinking of the four unlikes, a four unlikes with almost the same name showed up.

"Hey, good morning, Bai Jie Pi Pi."

Upon hearing this magnetic voice, Bai Jie sat up and looked over, only to see the Qilin walking towards him.

Today, the Four-Faced Beast wasn't wearing the black robe he wore when he first came to the set. Instead, he changed into his classic outfit from the comics: a red cloak with white cloud patterns and a white squinty-eyed mask. Although his stunningly handsome face, which would leave anyone speechless for two seconds, was covered up, he still looked dashing and elegant.

"Good morning, you four-legged creature!"

"Good morning."

Bai Jie and Tian Lu greeted the four unlike creatures at the same time.

"Baijie and Pipi, here's some candy for you." The Qilin squatted down in front of the two Pixiu, took out two pieces of candy from its bosom, and handed them to Tianlu and Baijie.

"Yay!" Tianlu's eyes lit up when he saw the food, and his favorability towards the Qilin increased by ten. He took the two pieces of candy and handed one of them to Baijie, "Baijie, this one is yours."

"Ah, okay." Bai Jie caught the candy with his paw and glanced behind the Qilin. Hmm... he saw a rabbit shadow.

Rabbit God walked into the film crew with a determined look on his face: This time, I will definitely not waver easily.

As soon as Rabbit Lord entered the film crew, he witnessed the scene of Four Unlikes giving Bai Jie and Tian Lu candy. He had made a solemn vow and set a crazy flag in his heart.

"Giving out candy? Humph, that's just for kids." Rabbit thought disdainfully: A manly rabbit like me would never be interested in such things.

result…

The four-legged creature suddenly turned around and handed a rabbit-shaped candy to Rabbit Master. "Teacher Tony, this is strawberry flavored, here you go."

The gentle voice of the Qilin was like Cupid's arrow, piercing Rabbit's heart.

"How did he know... What's with this warm feeling in my heart?" Rabbit Lord's heart started pounding again, and a blush unconsciously crept onto his face. "Is this strawberry-flavored love? No, I absolutely refuse to believe it!"

A picture of a rabbit-themed arrogant person.

Looking at Rabbit Lord, whose cheeks were flushed and whose eyes were wandering, Bai Jie nodded: Very good, Rabbit Lord has completely fallen for him.

Just as Bai Jie was enjoying the gossip, Puss in Boots arrived with Gold Horn and Silver Horn. "Everyone's here. Come over here for a moment, I'll explain today's schedule."

"Okay, director!" After hearing what Puss in Boots said, Bunny turned around and ran away, looking very enthusiastic. But no matter how you looked at his back, it seemed like he was fleeing in panic.

"Let's go together, Pipi Baijie!" The four-legged creature called to the two little Pixiu and they headed towards Puss in Boots.

As the beasts gradually gathered, Puss in Boots, having seen all the beasts come to him, said, "We're going to the city today. We'll finish filming the city scenes in the next couple of days. I've already booked a car, which is parked in the village. Let's go together now."

After saying that, Puss in Boots waved his paw and took the lead, heading down the mountain.

"Why don't we just meet at the village entrance?" Bai Jie muttered speechlessly, but still followed along.

On the way down the mountain, Bai Jie approached Jin Jiao and Yin Jiao and asked curiously, "You two don't seem to have any scenes in the city, so why are you coming along?"

"Who said there isn't?" Jinjiao retorted to Baijie.

"Huh, really?" A big question mark appeared above Bai Jie's head.

"My brother and I are going to the city to film scenes set in Heaven. The director said the high-quality replica of the Eight Trigrams Furnace is ready, but it's too much trouble to move it up the mountain, so he wants us to film it in the city," Silver Horn explained to Baidu.

"Oh, I see!" Bai Jie recalled the Bagua Furnace that was taller than a person in the comic: such a big thing must be quite troublesome to move up the mountain.

"By the way, why did you follow me here?" Golden Horn interjected.

"Me? I just followed out of curiosity." Bai Jie said: This is a filming location for Beast Demons, how could I not come!

Time passed by unnoticed as they chatted, and the crew soon arrived near the village in the mountains.

Wisps of smoke rose from the peaceful and tranquil village, and a group of children played and frolicked in the fields near the village entrance, creating a serene scene. A sign hung above the village gate with three large characters written in a flamboyant style: Caiyun Village.

Hmm... This card was named by Bai Jie and written by Tian Lu. When Bai Jie and his group first came to this village, they found that the village was named in an absurdly random way. The village was named according to the race of the village chief. If the village chief was a sheep, it was called Sheep Village; if the village chief was a rabbit, it was called Rabbit Village.

When Bai Jie arrived, he couldn't stand it anymore and simply helped them decide on the name, since the mountain range was quite fitting for the name Caiyun.

What Bai Jie didn't expect was that this mountain range was actually the filming location for the Saiun Mountains. It can only be said that fate is wonderful.

As the group of beasts continued to approach Caiyun Village, Bai Jie saw a bus parked at the village entrance and several other vehicles loaded with photography equipment. At the same time, he also saw the group of children playing around at the village entrance.

Squirrels, rabbits, foxes, hedgehogs, and even Bai Jie spotted a water radish spirit among them: Good heavens, how do you creatures manage to live together in such harmony?

"Everyone, get on the bus," Puss in Boots said, patting the bus and addressing the crew of animals.

A group of beasts boarded the vehicle one after another. Just before boarding, Bai Jie caught a glimpse out of the corner of his eye that the little rabbit seemed to be drooling over the water radish spirit.

After getting on the bus, Rabbit had just found a window seat when Qilin sat down next to him. "Teacher Tony, I'll sit with you."

"Huh? Ah! Oh, okay!" Rabbit's body stiffened, his heart pounding: No, stop! We're just sitting together, how could I...

Rabbit God took a deep breath and turned his gaze to the window to divert his attention, trying his best not to pay attention to the strange creature beside him.

A certain Bai, who witnessed the whole thing while leaning on the back of a chair: So sweet, so sweet, you two are definitely a destined couple.

"Bai Jie, get down quickly, the car is about to leave." Tianlu tugged at Bai Jie, who was leaning against the back of the seat with a maternal smile.

"Ah! Okay." Bai Jie realized what was happening, released its claws, and slid off the back of the chair.

The vehicle started moving, the body shook slightly, and then it began to move.

Sitting in his seat, Bai Jie felt a little bored: Hmm... I'll play on my phone for a while.

Bai Jie took out his phone, just as he was about to call Tian Lu to play games together, when a notification popped up on QQ. Bai Jie opened the message.

A chubby little guy: "Honey, honey, didn't you say there was a beast-themed movie crew starting filming today? How's it going? Has filming started yet?"

Upon seeing this message, Bai Jie blinked: It's him.

This QQ friend, whose online name is "A Little Fatty," was someone I met in a plush toy lovers' group. They have a very good relationship, well... you can tell from their nicknames for each other.

Bai Jie started typing a reply.

Bai Hechou: Not yet. The first scene is to be filmed in the city, and I'm still in the car.

A chubby little guy: "Um, okay, by the way, honey, what role do you play in it?"

Bai Hechou (Bai Jie): "I can't give away any spoilers."

A chubby little guy said, "I didn't let my wife spoil the plot. I just want to know who she plays."

Bai Hechou: "Guess."

A chubby little creature: "I guess it's the main character, Pixiu."

Bai Hechou: "No, you're overthinking it."

On the mountain road, a bus swayed along, sunlight streaming through the windows and illuminating a small, golden figure.

"Ah~ I'm so sleepy." Bai Jie, who had just finished chatting with her QQ friend, yawned widely. The swaying of the car and the warm sunlight made Bai Jie feel sleepy. "Did I get up too early today? Oh well, I'll go back to sleep."

Bai Jie rolled over and climbed onto Tian Lu. "Tian Lu, I'm going to sleep for a while. Wake me when we get there." Bai Jie buried his face in Tian Lu's fur and made muffled sounds.

"Don't worry, Bai Jie, I'll definitely call you when we get there." Tianlu adjusted his position and hugged Bai Jie tightly: Hehe, my little brother really can't live without me.

"Okay, okay." Bai Jie mumbled a sleepy reply, closed his eyes, and drifted off to sleep, inhaling the fragrance emanating from Tian Lu.
