Red Envelope Group of the Three Realms
chapter-672

"Director Feng, Zhang Zhongji said that it feels like his bones have shattered…" the assistant whispered, "Should we take five? He is probably really injured."

"Are you insane? We managed to capture such perfect acting! You can't possibly recreate that! Even if Zhang Zhongji is really hurt, ask him to suck it up for a while. If we stop filming now, his injury would've been a waste! No, we'll continue!"

Feng Yaolun was so excited and he had no plans to stop at all. He was dedicated to every scene and strived to achieve realism in each one.

Because the best performances were those that were realistic!

Zhang Zhongji's pain was so real – that was exactly what Feng Yaolun wanted. How could he possibly stop now?

On the other side, Zhang Zhongji had already passed out. In the film, it appeared that he had died.

And since Feng Yaolun did not yell "Cut!", the filming would continue.

"Let's move! Let's go in!" Chen Xiaobei yelled, and he charged forward to kill the remaining goons.

Tang Mengwan recovered from her daze and like any good actress, organized her thoughts as she followed behind Chen Xiaobei. She did not let the scene flop.

"Director Feng… Chen Xiaobei is taking over the show!" the assistant questioned, "Our show is called Lin Yue the Heroine, not Lin Yue the Hero! Chen Xiaobei has overshadowed the plot… Isn't that inappropriate?"

"Don't talk to me about the plot! And don't talk to me about the script! All of these – all these perfect scenes are all possible because of Chen Xiaobei! Let him lead the scenes!" Feng Yaolun's eyes burned with a blinding fervor.

He was excited that he discovered Chen Xiaobei – the star of stars!

At the same time, he secretly hoped that Chen Xiaobei could take over Tang Mengwan's role, so that he could anchor the climax of the scene to fortify the backbone of this production.

*Boom!*

With all those goons defeated, Chen Xiaobei kicked open the door of the villain's base.

The following scene was the all-important explosion.

The camera followed Chen Xiaobei and Tang Mengwan's footsteps as they completed the scene of searching in the wooden building.

"No! We were tricked!" Chen Xiaobei gasped, as he quickly pulled Tang Mengwan's small hands and took flight.

"What happened?" Tang Mengwan asked, shocked.

"I smell gunpowder! This is a trap!" Chen Xiaobei knitted his brows together. The anxious look he had was on point.

At the same time, the cameramen evacuated.

*Boom! Boom! Boom!*

Suddenly, loud explosions could be heard from the building.

Of course, these were the small directional blasts placed outside the wooden building. It was only for a visual effect of the flames, not to cause the entire building to collapse for real.

"Oh no! The building is going to cave in! We can't get away!" Tang Mengwan shrieked, her expression so authentic.

"I'm here. Nothing's going to happen to you!"

Chen Xiaobei focused on the explosion. A dominant aura exuded from him.

He tugged at Tang Mengwan's hand, pulled her close and picked her up. He carried her in his arms and continued to run.

"Continue to live!" Chen Xiaobei roared his last line, and gave Tang Mengwan a shove and pushed her out the door!

*Boom!*

Just then, the small blasting device installed at the doorway was detonated, the beam above the main door collapsed, the flame licked the ceiling and blocked the line of sight from outside.

The next scene would be an emotional one focused around Tang Mengwan.

Now all Chen Xiaobei had to do was follow the safety exit route and leave the building.

Once he had left, the next step was crucial – the crumbling of the entire building and bringing the entire scene to a close.

"I'm already very familiar with the escape route. I'll just watch Tang Mengwan's scene first!" Chen Xiaobei was in no hurry. He then activated his Golden Gaze Fiery Eyes to watch Tang Mengwan's performance at a close distance.

Tang Mengwan was the darling of China's television because her acting skills were really good – she was able to emulate the emotions of someone who had just lost a loved one perfectly.

"No problem at all! Only one take! I should leave!" Chen Xiaobei grinned and was just about to leave when…

"Huh? What is that?"

It was when he turned to leave, he saw, at the corner of his eyes, with his Golden Gaze Fiery Eyes, he could see a cluster of black objects hidden behind the pillar.

Chen Xiaobei quickly went to inspect it and was shaken by what he discovered.

"Four packs of explosives! Someone is out to kill me!"

The explosives were not like those used in the movies. In fact, they were military-grade explosives!

Not only would it reduce the building to a pile of splinters, it would also bury Chen Xiaobei in a pit of flames!

Ruthless!

Not only would Chen Xiaobei die, it could also be covered up as an accident – then the perpetrator would get away with this crime!

"If this is for me, then I'm afraid all the exits have been blocked. There is definitely no way out! I should just let it happen!"

Chen Xiaobei gave up the notion of escaping, and opened his treasure chest to take out three Prosperous Monkey Furs and three hundred pounds of Divine River Spiritual Water.

Simultaneously, beyond the wooden tower.

Tang Mengwan finished her major emotional scene. There were still traces of tears on her face.

"Very good! Incredible!"

Feng Yaolun stood up, clapping and praising, "Tang Mengwan really is the actress that deserves the Huafeng Award! One take only! It was perfect!"

Hearing this, the entire crew breathed a sigh of relief.

To them, completing this scene was already half the battle won.

However…

Everyone was startled before Feng Yaolun could finish talking.

*Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!*

A deafening eruption took everyone by surprise. The wooden tower shattered before their eyes. The pillars crumbled and sunk into a pile of dust.

Flames licked the rubble, spreading like the plague, turning it into a sea of fire.

Everyone was speechless!

Tang Mengwan's still wet eyes were filled with despair.

The tower had collapsed and Chen Xiaobei had not come out yet!

"What… what…What happened?" Feng Yaolun stuttered. He could not digest what he was seeing.

The entire crew went into an uproar. They did not know what to do!

"How could this happen? Blast team! Are you insane? Chen Xiaobei is still in there! How could you detonate?"

In this situation, only one woman was composed.

The hidden part of Song Qincheng exploded and she was yelling at the entire crew, "Put out the fire! Come on! Put out the fire now! If anything happens to Chen Xiaobei, I will put all of you behind bars!"
