Chapter 1365 Exploring the Mansion (Building a house in the Seven Day World is fun)

After shooting the exterior of the mansion, the crew also entered the interior of the mansion.

This mansion is very old. Although the door is intact, the lock on it is basically useless and can be opened with just a slight push. The crew also quickly entered the lobby of the mansion and started the next shooting task.

The layout of the entire hall is very simple. In addition to the wide hall, the left and right are connected to the East Hall and the West Hall respectively, and in front is the staircase leading to the second floor. Although a long time has passed, perhaps because it was renovated by the second owner before, the mansion in front of us does not look too dilapidated.

However, the most eye-catching thing at the moment is not the mansion itself, but a stone statue erected in the center of the hall!

"What is this?"

Looking at the stone statue in front of him, a staff member murmured in a low voice, and others were somewhat uneasy about it. This is no wonder, it is really this stone statue--too evil!

It is not a new thing for wealthy families to put stone statues in their homes, but generally speaking, they are angels, holy beasts and the like.

However, the stone statue in front of us is extremely strange!

It has a cucumber-shaped head similar to an alien, and a centipede-like body standing upright. The six claws in front of it are waving their teeth. It doesn't look like an angel or a monster, but more like an alien monster!

This is why everyone feels awkward. Imagine that if you put two stone lions at the door of your house, no one will think there is anything wrong.

But if you put two alien sculptures at the door of your house, then... it will be weird no matter how you look at it, right?

"Professor? May I ask what this sculpture is..."

The host also hurried forward and asked curiously. The old professor also looked at the stone statue with a confused look on his face, and shook his head after a while.

"This seems to be unrecorded, and I don't know much... But judging from the text on the base, this should be some kind of evil demon image in the Buddhist scriptures."

As he spoke, the old professor pointed to the bottom of the base, and then everyone saw that the Buddhist scriptures were engraved on the base of this stone statue.

"But why not just carve a Buddha statue, but use the appearance of an evil demon?"

"I don't know about that."

The old professor laughed and changed the subject. Those rich people always have some strange interests, and this kind of thing is not uncommon. But of course, this can't be said directly in a variety show, so just skip it. The host just asked casually, and seeing that the old professor didn't mean to answer, he didn't think much about it.

Instead, Duanmu Huai stared at the stone statue and frowned slightly.

Duanmu Huai didn't know what was carved on the stone statue, but he was sure that it was definitely some kind of alien creature!

In other words, this place was actually caused by alien creatures?

If so, then Duanmu Huai understood why he couldn't detect the other party's existence.

After all... different categories.

In the world of Cthulhu, there are three major threats.

They are the Outer Gods, the Old Ones and the Alien Creatures.

Among them, the Outer Gods are the most harmful, but they don't bother you if you don't mess with them.

The Old Ones are relatively the most difficult to deal with, because they want to return to the peak all the time and take back everything they have lost, so they have the strongest mobility. They will take the initiative to cause trouble even if others don't provoke them, which is also the target that Duanmu Huai often attacks.

Aliens are literally from outer space.

However, this kind of alien creature is not a simple alien life form like green orcs, space dead spirits, or star spirits. On the contrary, they are closer to terrifying and powerful existences like star gods!

The relatively weak ones, such as Migo, flying hydra, Shagai Zerg, and the Ancients are closer to the concept of alien creatures in science fiction movies.

But the strong ones, such as Star Color, are basically natural disaster-level existences-well, except for the great race Is.

Of course, in the world of Cthulhu, these alien creatures are uniformly classified as monsters.

More importantly, these alien creatures are not just weird in appearance, they all have particularly strange and powerful abilities, which is the key point!

But if that were the case, it would be fine. The problem is that before these people came, Duanmu Huai had secretly used his Thousand Eyes to search the entire house, and the result showed that he didn't even find a hammer!

This is a bit tricky.

Duanmu Huai is not afraid of physical creatures, such as the earth-drilling demon worm. Although it is powerful, it is not difficult for me to kill you. Just hit it with real swords and guns. But facing those non-physical existences, Duanmu Huai is a little powerless. For an illusory existence like Xingzhicai, you don't know where to hit or who to hit even if you want to hit it. This is the most troublesome!

Now Duanmu Huai feels that it is possible that the one here is an energy creature like Xingzhicai, and what he can do is very limited.

Unless the other party absorbs enough power and finally reveals his true body like Xingzhicai, Duanmu Huai can only fight wits and courage with the air.

Literally.

Damn, I hate this kind of ghost stuff the most.

Duanmu Huai cursed secretly, then retracted his perception and turned his eyes away from the stone statue. At this time, the crew had finished filming the scene here, and then it was time for the exploration team - the actress and the crosstalk actor to appear.

"Wow, this place is really weird."

As soon as they came in, the crosstalk actor started to shout in an exaggerated way, and the actress also looked around with an uneasy look on her face.

"Wow... That stone statue is really scary..."

Of course, this is naturally the beginning of exploring the shooting process. Then the director came over, gave each of them a portable camera under the camera, and then motioned for the two to explore the entire mansion.

"Wow, director, you can't be like this, you really want us to go!"

At this moment, the crosstalk actor was so scared that his face was pale, his legs were shaking, and he almost wanted to leave first - of course, this was all acting. The reason why they chose to participate in this program is because it is also a way to increase their fame. If their performance in the program is very good and will win the audience's praise, then it will naturally be good for their acting career.

The crosstalk actor itself is a funny profession, so his exaggerated style similar to comics is reasonable.

"Okay, don't be so nervous, we will send someone to protect you."

While speaking, the director pointed at Duanmu Huai.

"He will always follow you, so you can rest assured."

The actress and the crosstalk actor also looked at Duanmu Huai, who was standing not far away and wearing sunglasses, and their faces turned pale. Well, this does not require any acting skills, just play from the heart.

"Great, now we can rest assured."

The actress also breathed a sigh of relief and kept patting her chest. The persona she created for the outside world is the pure white moonlight with a bird-like figure. Originally, according to the routine, the actress should go up and get close to Duanmu Huai and show her charm as a weak woman. But looking at Duanmu Huai's body that seemed to be cast in iron, and his face that looked more fierce than the gangsters in the movie, the actress did not dare to go over, and even only dared to nod timidly at Duanmu Huai, and then distanced herself from him.

"Then, let's go."

After the crosstalk actor said this, he walked directly towards the East Hall, and the actress, Duanmu Huai and two other staff members followed behind.

As for the remaining staff, they stayed in the hall and began to organize the materials they had shot before.

"Pay attention, pay attention, all the places that need to be filmed should be filmed in place."

Sitting on the chair, the director was also holding a megaphone to direct others to do things. After all, filming requires a long process, and there are a lot of materials to be filmed. It is not like what the audience sees on TV, just filming the protagonist's shots. Before, in the hall, the crew also filmed the material shots of the hall first, and then let the host and guests appear.

"Boom boom boom!!"

Just then, suddenly, accompanied by the sound of thunder, it suddenly became dark outside, and then the heavy rain poured down, and rushed directly into the hall under the strong wind. For a while, the materials and papers in the hall were blown everywhere. And the staff also hurriedly began to pack up their things, but the director saw this scene and his eyes lit up immediately.

"Okay, this rain came at a good time, photographer, did you take it?"

"I took it."

The main photographer nodded.

"Where's the second camera? What's the situation with the second camera?"

"This, this... Director, I, I seem to have forgotten to put the tape in..."

Hearing the director's question, another photographer reported with some uneasiness.

"What?"

Hearing the other party's answer, the director was immediately furious.

"Didn't I say before that it is very likely to rain today, so I want you to focus on shooting the outdoor scenes? What are you doing?!"

The director was also staring at the photographer at this moment, and he was furious. The budget of the variety show is limited. If you want to do special effects, no amount of money can stop it. So the director came up with this idea. He knew that it would rain heavily here today, so he chose this date specifically, just to add these shots to the show—the real nature is much more shocking than the special effects, and it doesn't cost money!

As a result, this bastard didn't put the tape in? In other words, he just carried the camera here and shot for a long time, and shot for nothing?

"Yes, sorry... Director..."

"What a waste! Get out of here! This is the nth time!"

Staring at the photographer, the director was furious. This guy had forgotten things time and again. He had clearly reminded him, but he still forgot.

"Tell me if you can't do the job! If you can't do the job, get out! When we get back to the studio, I'll get you out of here completely! I've had enough of you, this incompetent idiot! Did you hear me? Idiot!"

"……………………"

Hearing the director's angry scolding, everyone else present was stunned. Although they also knew that the director had a bad temper, it was just such a small matter that could make him so angry. And the scolded photographer also stood there with his head down, not saying a word, and no one knew what he was thinking.

"Okay, okay, director, don't be so angry. He was just too nervous and forgot."

At this time, the main photographer also hurried up to smooth things over. He didn't have any feelings for the other photographer, but the shooting had just begun, and the director was directly furious. How could he continue shooting? Other staff members also rushed forward, comforting the director while taking the photographer aside.

"Hey, you too, how could you forget what the director told you? Go to work, don't make the director angry again."

"I know......"

The photographer lowered his head and spoke silently, then turned and walked towards the West Pavilion.

"Wait, what are you doing?"

"I'm going to smoke a cigarette."

Before he finished speaking, the photographer disappeared behind the gate of the West Pavilion, and watching him leave, the staff who had comforted the photographer before also shook their heads and went about their own business.

After all, the director over there was still furious.
