I make a thriller, it's God chasing and feeding

Chapter 411 [Missing]

"This is for you."

At the school gate,
Little Chu Zhi came to Lu Zhengyi with a piece of A4 paper and handed it to him obediently.

Behind her, Lu Yongan and Chu Zhi's mother looked a little confused.

"Oh, thank you, Xiao Chuzhi."

Lu Zhengyi bent down and thanked her.

The little girl seemed very happy, jumping around, completely different from the somewhat arrogant little princess he had seen before.

Behind her, her mother looked a little overwhelmed.

Although, if my daughter wants to be a child star, she does need to please Director Lu.

But for now, isn’t my daughter’s behavior a little too obvious?

If you show too much courtesy, people will dislike you.

"Then we'll leave first."

Lu Zhengyi politely said goodbye to the two and left with his son.

"But why? She was clearly..." Lu Yongan sat on the back of the motorcycle, looking a little indignant, "Why is she so friendly to you?"

"No, she is completely different in front of you than she is in school."

"And that painting, is that... you? No, why did she draw you, why not me..."

He kept complaining.

But Lu Zhengyi drove the car, just smiled and didn't say anything.

Draw?

Perhaps because she has been learning since she was young, Chu Zhi's painting skills are very good.

It's not a child's random scribble, but a simple sketch.

The person above is myself and a little black cat.

"But what's that dark thing in the back?"

After returning home, Lu Yongan couldn't help but take out the painting again and pointed at the unclear black thing behind Lu Zhengyi and Ayong, "Shadow?"

Sketches usually only have two colors: white and gray.

"probably."

After Lu Zhengyi entered the room, he took the words from his hand and said, “This is for me.”

"Hey Hey hey!"

Lu Yongan shouted with some dissatisfaction.

But Lu Zhengyi didn't say anything and went back upstairs with the painting.

This is just an ordinary A4 paper, a casual work of a child. Even if the child has learned painting knowledge since childhood, he did not use expensive paper or exquisite picture frames in art classes at school.

It's just a piece of paper.

As for people, although there are some similarities, they are no longer the same.

Choose an egg, beat it, mix it with several other eggs, and fry them together. After they are fried into several poached eggs, it is difficult to tell how much of the original egg is inside them.

What's more, this is not the difference between one and a few, but the whole world is mixed up together.

"But he is indeed a lucky person." Lu Zhengyi placed the painting under the glass of the desk and picked up his phone. "Recommend it. It's a convenient thing to do."

He sent messages to Bai Wei and Li Chuanxin separately, saying that he had a good child who might be suitable to be a child star.

That way, if there's a suitable role, they'll definitely contact me.

“Don’t make the wrong choice this time.” Lu Zhengyi put down his phone and pointed at the black cat in the painting again. “I don’t know if he can recognize it.”

……

Although they were notified, both of them had roles to play.

Especially Bai Wei, the cast of his "Annabelle" has already been confirmed and filming has even started, so he doesn't have any job opportunities for the time being.

And half a year after this incident, there was finally news about Final Destination.

This time, Li Chuanxin also did not use anything special.

He only relied on himself and his knowledge that had broken through the "boundaries" to create a movie that people "dare not watch".

I really don't dare to watch it.

"The movie that Director Li shot this time is so scary!"

"Oh my god, when the knife was stabbing towards the camera, I felt like it was already stabbing me!"

"hiss--"

"There was also the scene where a man accidentally fell from a building and landed right on the statue of a soldier holding a spear and was pierced directly. I covered my eyes while watching it."

"This shouldn't be considered a horror thriller, although it is really scary."

"It hurts, it hurts, it hurts!"

A good work can always make people feel empathy.

But if this were a movie called 'Final Destination', this kind of empathy might not be a good thing.

The term "phantom pain" was fully interpreted to some viewers after the release of this film.

Just sitting in the cinema and watching the pictures, the pictures transmitted to the brain through the eyeballs can make the body involuntarily show expressions such as "pain" and "fear..."

Even Lu Zhengyi couldn't help but post a long article on Weibo after watching the movie.

This time, the long article is more obvious than the last praise.

It's just complete flattery.

"To be honest, after watching Director Li's work, I could only feel two words: 'It hurts.' It really hurts."

"There's a scene where a female supporting character plugs a hot water bottle into an electric heater, while she sits next to it and watches her phone. When I saw this scene, I immediately had a feeling that the hot water bottle would explode, because that's how several supporting characters died before, very suddenly."

"It is true that the whole hot water bottle exploded due to a short circuit. But even though I expected it, when I saw the hot water splashing on the girl and she screamed in pain, I couldn't help but gasp because I have had similar experiences of being scalded by hot water."

"Because the camera and the visual effects were so good, I seemed to recall what it felt like to be scalded by hot water, and my whole arm began to hurt."

"I give this film a 10. Although it is somewhat different from the horror thrillers I've shot before, does that mean there can only be one type of horror thriller? No, this is also a horror thriller. Director Li took another path, a different path from me, but I am very grateful that he made this choice."

"I fell in love with movies first, so I became a director. Now that someone can create such a work, I am really very excited. I rarely feel this way..."

Lu Zhengyi typed on the keyboard word by word, and couldn't help but recall the scenes he saw in the cinema.

Then, he couldn't stop feeling happy and helpless. Those scenes really reminded him of some things in the past and brought back some of the feelings he had at that time.

The pain of being injured, the pain of dying...

There are all kinds.

"Haven't you finished writing yet?"

Zhang Xueming walked into the study with a cup of coffee.

"Yes, because... this work is really amazing." Lu Zhengyi replied, "I want to recommend it well. As a viewer, I have a lot to say."

"It looks like you really care about it."

Zhang Xueming sat down next to him. "But I wanted to ask you about Chu Zhi. What's going on with her? I heard from An An that she seems to be very close to you. Is she... a cultivator?"

"Also, I heard that you promised her parents that you would help her find some way out in the acting industry."

“Is this considered a special treatment?”

This was the first thing that came to her mind when she mentioned her husband.

Her husband is a very authoritative person. If she socializes in her son's class, many people will come up to her if she goes to school, wanting to cooperate with her or make friends with her.

But if it was the husband who went, even if others saw him, they would just stand far away.

In this case, the only way the girl would be willing to approach is...

"No, not now, but not necessarily in the future." Lu Zhengyi replied, "It can be considered as special treatment, but not too much. I just give her some opportunities."

"As for whether she can succeed, it depends on herself." "If you just rely on interest, you can't support your career path."

Zhang Xueming can understand this statement very well, "Life is unpredictable, and so is Baoning. She was considered a relatively well-known child star at the time."

"If she had continued on this path, she might have won the Youngest Best Actress Award, but unexpectedly, after her mother passed away, she chose not to act anymore."

"But now that she's done with acting, she can probably be successful in other things. It seems like she's going to take the civil service exam and live a normal working life."

This is quite a pity.

Li Zhenxi originally placed all her dreams on Liu Baoning.

But now she is gone, and Liu Baoning has also chosen to retire.

Even if one is supported by interest and dreams, it is still difficult for a person to stick to one career from beginning to end.

Although it sounds contradictory, the passion built up by interests and dreams can also be extinguished.

Lu Zhengyi also felt a little regretful about Liu Baoning.

"And Teacher Zhou."

Zhang Xueming continued, "It's such a pity that he passed away so suddenly."

"Ah, yes, suddenly..."

Lu Zhengyi agreed subconsciously, but soon, he turned his head sharply, “Huh?”

He looked a little dazed.

Who?
Teacher Zhou?

Zhou Jie?

"Yes, Teacher Zhou Jie."

Zhang Xueming looked at him helplessly, "Didn't I tell you about this in a message before? Really, although she is old enough, she still looks very young, why did she leave..."

She was still talking, but Lu Zhengyi frowned.

He was sure that he had not heard Zhang Xueming mention anything related to Zhou Jie in the past few days.

Died? She passed away, how could I...

Thinking of this, Lu Zhengyi's cell phone suddenly rang.

After the cell phone rang, Zhang Xueming calmed down.

In the quiet study, the ringtone was very harsh.

He is Taoist Master Guanshan.

Lu Zhengyi's furrowed brows never relaxed. He picked up the phone and answered the call. Then, he heard a voice that could hardly suppress its emotions.

"Lu, Director Lu, Zhou Jie is missing, she is missing!"

There was unprecedented panic and fear in this voice.

Ever since Lu Zhengyi met Taoist Master Guanshan, he has never had such obvious emotional ups and downs.

Even if he was upset by some of his own remarks, he would just dodge and avoid them. On the surface, he managed to maintain his expression and body movements as much as possible.

But now, through the phone, Lu Zhengyi can clearly feel the emotions that are about to overflow in his words.

It's like a...

Like a madman.

"Buzz!"

Outside, the sound of muffled thunder could be clearly heard through the window and into the house. It was about to rain.

……

Taoist Master Guanshan, who was soaked all over, was sitting on the sofa, trembling, letting the rain wet the sofa under his body.

He traveled all night and didn't even wait until the next day.

After hurriedly hanging up the phone, less than half an hour later, he knocked on Lu Zhengyi's door.

The only one who greeted him was Lu Zhengyi.

The wife had gone upstairs to bed, and she knew very well that it was not appropriate for her to participate in the conversation that was about to begin.

"She was discussing some spiritual matters with me just an hour ago."

Taoist Guanshan couldn't control his emotions at all, so much so that his facial features looked distorted. "But an hour later, when I went to look for her again, she was gone."

"I thought she had gone out, so I casually asked the people in the temple if they had heard where she had gone, but everyone said she had passed away!"

"Yes, everyone. I contacted other practitioners I knew, but everyone said that Zhou Jie had passed away."

"I opened my phone and saw news about her death. There was even news about her passing. She had even held a farewell ceremony, and... and there was me in the photo! There was me!"

"But I have never participated in it. I don't know whether it is my fault or something else. What is it..."

He was a little incoherent.

His existing knowledge is not enough to support him to understand this matter.

How could such a thing be possible? Was I deceived? Or was there something wrong with Zhou Jie, or...

Taoist Master Guanshan couldn't find the answer.

But the person who could have answered his questions is no longer around.

If it were in the past, no matter what happened, my uncle would always stand behind me and give me some confidence.

but now……

"Indeed, I don't have any memory of Zhou Jie passing away."

Although Lu Zhengyi was somewhat puzzled, at least he was not as panicked as Taoist Guanshan. "Before you came, I checked with my wife and others, and they did remember that she had left."

Even the comments from netizens on the Internet are real.

It is very likely that in this world today, they are the only two who have relatively clear memories of Zhou Jie.

Lu Zhengyi looked at Taoist Guanshan with some surprise.

"But, but this is not scientific."

Taoist Master Guanshan said something that made people laugh.

With such a profession and such a status, it is unscientific to say so.

But it is indeed a bit unscientific. What kind of great power can suddenly change the perception of the entire world? And where are the people? Where did they go?

Does such power really exist in this world?
Isn’t it said that there are no immortals in this world?
"Teacher Zhou came to see me before. She said that there are fairies in this world. She said I was wrong. She said there are many fairies in this world."

Lu Zhengyi pondered, "She said this matter, you also know it."

"Yes, she has always told me, but I think she is just too obsessed." Taoist Master Guanshan quickly replied, "How is this possible? If it is really as she said, then where are they?"

"I remember we talked about something similar. You said that immortals might be a kind of consciousness, living on another level, a level that we cannot see."

Lu Zhengyi recalled what they had said before, "After all, we all know that this world is a sphere, and there is a universe outside."

"If immortals and gods exist, do they live in the universe? I actually have no objection to your point of view."

"I can actually roughly understand what level Zhou Jie has reached. If that state is also considered an immortal, it might be a pity."

Taoist Guanshan paused, "What's the status?"

Lu Zhengyi slowly raised his hand and fiddled with the air, as if he was caressing something, "Integrate into this world."

"..."

Taoist Master Guanshan did not speak.

"I don't know if Zhou Jie is like this, because I can't see or feel what she said now."

Lu Zhengyi replied in a trance, "But I have had similar experiences before. I am no longer just an individual, but... a gathering of consciousness. That feeling is hard to describe."

"But that is not the immortal god that people expect."

"If I were to describe it more precisely, a machine might be more appropriate. It strictly enforces certain rules, regardless of whether the target is a human, an animal, a plant, a stone, or water... it's all the same."
