Returning from the abyss

Chapter 845 Hazy Impression
Here in the harbor, life and death do not seem to be a boundary. Both the living Lu Ying and the dead Dr. D exist here. This place is full of unreasonable weirdness, and Lu Ying chooses to turn a blind eye to most of them.

"If you want to stay here for a long time, then don't know too much." Lu Ying poured herself a glass of water again, "If you want to go back, I can help you once, and only once. Be grateful to me, I You don't always do good things."

Don't do good things often?Probably never did anything good.

But Lu Ying's mentality has not changed much compared to the last time they parted, and Lu Ning is not worried.

"It takes a little preparation time to go back to the inland. I don't know who extradited you here, but after you go back, don't mention to anyone that you saw me here, understand? Wait until... 15 minutes after the body feels , if you come back here, I can probably finish the preparations."

Lu Ning nodded, and seeing her get up, Lu Ying reminded again: "No matter where you go here, don't threaten others with life and death, there is no such concept here."

"I see." Lu Ning didn't know what kind of person Lu Ying was in her heart, but she didn't care, she walked out and returned to the dark street.

The beggar is no longer there, and there is a pool of blood where he was originally.Lu Ning thought for a moment, then walked around.

Rose Street is not very long, no more than 100 meters at most, and you can reach the end with a little walk.The fog that shrouded the street made people feel a little stuffy, and Lu Ning was finally able to appreciate the weirdness of this "harbour".

She couldn't tell what was in front of her eyes, there was something at the end of the street, it was within Lu Ning's vision, and Lu Ning clearly knew that there was something standing there, but she couldn't form the picture of this thing in her mind correct image.It is also because of this that Lu Ning stopped walking - a completely unknown existence, which is a taboo that is absolutely avoided in the distribution center.

Just as she was backing away, rustling sounds began to come from around her.As if there were rats running down the street, but probably much bigger than rats.

Lu Ning frowned, and her eyes fell on an alley on the right hand side.The voice came from that direction, the road in front of her was blocked, so...

It's better to turn back.

She will not be attracted by these things casually, the most important thing now is to go back first and figure out the connection between this weird world and the outside world.

But she didn't go, instead the voices started coming in her direction.Lu Ning quickened her pace a little, and the speed of those things also increased accordingly.

When Lu Ning returned to approach Lu Ying's door, she suddenly stopped and turned her head.

About ten meters away behind her, there was a pile of things that looked like white mushrooms.Their height just reached the level of Lu Ning's knees, but they were huge, about the size of an ordinary umbrella, with gray spots on them.There is a pair of snail-like eyes under these mushrooms, and the savings protruding from the edge of the canopy are constantly wriggling, and it can be seen that these things are not plants or fungi, but animals.

Lu Ning glanced over, there were at least twenty of them.

Ghost ship?The first noun that flashed in her mind was this name that had been mentioned several times before. Lu Ying didn't explain it in detail, as if it couldn't be explained here.But before she could make a judgment, the canopy of the "mushroom" in the front suddenly cracked, and a puff of white silk protruded from it, forming a face like a plaster statue in the air.

"Hello." The human face opened its mouth, but the voice came from the mushroom below.

"... Hello." Lu Ning replied cautiously.

"You have some familiar smells on you, that's why we came here." The mouth of the human face continued to open and close. Of course, this face is just a shell, and it doesn't have any five senses. This gives Lu Ning the feeling instead It's even weirder.

"You are……"

bang.

The door was opened roughly, and Lu Ying looked at the mushrooms on the street with displeasure, and shouted: "What are you doing here? Rose Street is my place!"

"Our compatriots smell a touching smell, maybe it's an anchor, maybe it's a memory." Mushroom said lightly, "We think it might be another compatriot, or maybe..."

"Get out!" Lu Ying shouted impatiently.

Mushroom's body squirmed a bit, retracted the false face into the canopy, and then disappeared into the surrounding path with a rustling sound.

Lu Ning was silent for a moment and asked, "What are these?"

"Dr.D, they are already a group with a similar Gestalt consciousness. The way they leave an anchor here is to extend their compatriots and make up for the lack of quality through quantity. Because of this, people near the Nightingale Clinic may be more Many." Lu Ying said.

"Got it. By the way, the beggar at your door disappeared, do you know what happened?" Lu Ning asked again.

"I don't know, I can't keep anyone here, maybe I just ran away because I didn't like it here." Lu Ying said indifferently.

"One last question... I walked to the end of the road here, but saw an unrecognizable thing there, do you know?"

"I know, just don't worry about it." Lu Ying pointed to her head, "Being able to see it means that there is something wrong with you, but not being able to recognize it means that you are not yet hopeless. Alright, Wait for me for a few minutes, the preparations are done, and I hope I won't see you again."

"Ha... alright."

After a few minutes, Lu Ying let Lu Ning into the room. The layout of the room has changed a lot from before, even the walls and ceiling are different.If Lu Ying hadn't brought Lu Ning in, she would even have doubted whether this house was the one just now.

"Now, you must always remember the place you came from in your mind, the more detailed the better. Your anchor point will become clearer and clearer, and to a certain extent, it will pull you back into your inner self. Lu." Lu Ying said, "Success depends on how clear your memory is, but it has nothing to do with your emotions. It's best not to let irrelevant emotions affect your thinking."

"understood."

Lu Ying pushed Lu Ning from behind, making her move forward.

"I can't go with you. I don't have any anchor in the inland. It's very dangerous for me to walk there. And you have to pay attention. If you fail, you won't be able to go back to your inland."

Lu Ning nodded and continued walking forward.The corridor was narrow and dark, with unknown light sources on both sides emitting white cold light. This corridor seemed to have no end. Lu Ning felt that the touch of his skin was fading, and his legs were just moving forward mechanically.She concentrated on thinking about the situation on the set, and even gradually lost her vision and hearing of the surroundings. Only some quiet, rotting trees-like smell penetrated into her nostrils.

However, her eyes are still capturing the surrounding things mechanically. In the dim light, she seems to see a person, also a woman, tall and with long hair... Her thoughts can only reflect these basic things concept, more attention is focused on memory.

"Hurry up and take out the things that cover the rain! We may not be able to shoot the exterior scene today, we will shoot the interior scene later!"

The man's yelling voice brought back Lu Ning's nearly lost mind. She stood at the side door where she had left before, and felt a cold touch from the rain on her head. When she looked up, the sky was already dark and cloudy. It was as if she had brought the weather on Rose Street back to reality.The crew was busy dealing with the sudden rain. Of course, there were such plans, and soon the crew moved a lot of things indoors.Wei Zhan was discussing the script with the screenwriter next to him, and the assistant director answered the phone. No one noticed that Lu Ning had left.

Lu Ning shook her head, and quickly returned to the camera crew, Ke Daolin nodded to her.Lu Ning also started to help, she happened to see some movie fans gathered outside the door, there were fewer people than in the square before, but these people were all wearing raincoats, standing silently in the rain, neither making noise nor leaving .

"When did those people come?" she asked Cordoline.

"About 5 minutes. You left for more than ten minutes, because no one asked during the intermission. But this rain came very quickly."

More than ten minutes, so it is not much different from the time Lu Ning experienced on Rose Street.

"Don't you think that group of guys look a little... scary?"

They looked like movie fans, but they just stood outside quietly. The busy staff didn't notice the situation of these movie fans, probably because they got used to it.Lu Ning just glanced at it, and then continued to help the crew with the transfer work.

Behind the fans, a man in a gray raincoat squeezed out of the crowd.He stretched out his hand and pulled the raincoat, revealing the white shirt and tie inside—it's rare for people to dress like this on such an occasion.The man was tall and thin, with a short beard, which made him look several years older than his actual age.He looked around anxiously, until he saw a woman's figure appearing under the opposite eaves, he breathed a sigh of relief, and walked quickly towards the woman.

"It's great that you came back safely." The man approached and whispered, "I just saw a person who also left came back, and I'm wondering..."

"Is it a tourist?" The woman dusted her sleeves with her fingers. Her coat was waterproof. This action easily shook all the little rainwater on her body to the ground.

"I don't know yet. If it is, we should not be in the same group." The man took out his mobile phone from his pocket, "I sent a message to Chen Anhui, but he hasn't replied yet."

"Naturally, the one where he is with the live broadcast, it won't be able to stop there like TV drama shooting." The woman took out a pack of women's cigarettes from her pocket, knocked out one and lit it for herself.

"Did you gain anything from going there?"

"Well... there is a very weird world. I think it's better for us to hold back now. Li Chengfu, you said that you have seen three tourists or characters in the scene that you knew before?"

The man named Li Chengfu nodded, and also went to the eaves, standing side by side with the woman.

"One is a friend I had a good relationship with before, and he died in the third-level promotion scene. Two are the characters in the scene that I was most impressed with when I was in the first level. They both have very unique temperaments. Now... also Nothing has changed."

The woman exhaled smoke, watching the white mist melt into the rain.

"So in summary, there are two kinds of [past] in this scene, the dead tourists we know, and the characters in the scene we met in the past scenes. The dead tourists will change their names, and there will be many differences. , but many of them are somewhat similar to our impressions. The characters in the scene will not change their names, and some may even be people we know... very interesting."

"I'll listen to you, Zhan Qiuxin." Li Chengfu pulled his collar back up, his eyes lowered, "This scene gave me a bad feeling, I've heard of your name and your ability, you should be able to Have you lived through this scene?"

"Excluding tourists, I'm confident." Zhan Qiuxin nodded.

"Tourist factor?"

“We are [movie fans], and if we divide it by filming, we are at the outermost layer of this information circle. If the tourists who are arranged in the inner layer do something wrong, it is difficult to tell the truth of the information they provide from our position. fake."

"Indeed." Li Chengfu agreed, "Tourists don't even cooperate easily now."

"This is very troublesome, because there is obviously a need for cooperation in this scene, but how many tourists are willing to cooperate with strangers? The fourth-level cooperation is much more difficult than the first-level cooperation."

"There are too many self-willed people." Li Chengfu sneered, "Then what should we do?"

"First of all, judge what kind of circle should be in if there are tourists here. Shooting - around this theme, we are in the circle of movie fans, but obviously the distribution center does not arrange all the tourists within our scope. Then the various aspects involved in this shooting All parties may be arranged to include tourists, and the probably involved parts include film and television bases, investment companies, film crew members, performing arts companies, publicity and distribution, production and management.” Zhan Qiuxin said.

"Find them one by one?"

"We are movie fans, the freest people on the periphery. If this is a scene of division of labor and cooperation, then we naturally have to take on this task. You said you should listen to me, right?"

Li Chengfu moved his shoulders: "That's right, I've done what I said, so let's communicate with the people who were filmed here. Someone was attracted to investigate like you before."

"That's just right." Zhan Qiuxin pinched out the cigarette, took out a plastic box and put the cigarette butts in, squinted his eyes and looked at Ling's house, which was still filming.
