I Created the Myth of the Old Ruler

When Bai Qiquan saw the picture appearing on the big screen in the auditorium, he directly sucked in a breath of cold air.

Because this is the scene in "Crying"!

For a moment, the cold and gloomy feeling in the hospital, the air mixed with disinfectant, and the faint cry of a baby lingered around Bai Qiquan.

Back, all back, on this day, Bai Qiquan finally recalled the fear of being dominated by Nanhua Private Renji Hospital, and the humiliation of not even daring to go back to the dormitory at night.

But because he has seen the movie several times, he finally has some patience.

No matter how scary the episode is, if you have watched it several times and can recite the subsequent plot with your eyes closed, then there is nothing scary about it!

The unknown is the scariest thing!

And horror works that already know the route, just change the map to open Wushuang.

Just like some games played by Bai Qiquan, some games will provide small maps and large maps for players, for fear that players will not find their way, while some games, not to mention large maps, do not even have small maps. Without a sense of security, I don’t know if I will suddenly walk into a dead end, fall off a cliff, run into a pile of monsters, or be killed by a train on the railroad tracks.

The current Bai Qiquan is like an old player who has played thousands of times in those games where the creator's malice is hidden. Everyone on this street has killed me, and he is already very familiar with the routine of the short film.

He subconsciously looked around.

The other interviewees, all with livid faces, stared straight at the screen, unable to look away, only fear radiated from their pupils, their hands were firmly grasping the handrails, their legs were exerting force Stepping on the ground, the whole body tensed up, like a dead grasshopper.

"It turned out that I had this expression when I watched the movie."

Bai Qiquan had some comprehension. He stroked the armrest with his hand, and suddenly found that the original brand-new armrest already had deep fingerprints.

During this period of time, I don’t know how many interviewees have sat here, feeling the fear of being dominated by Lu Jian’s horror movies, leaving this mark.

Thinking of this, Bai Qiquan suddenly felt quite moved.

Is this the psychology of the creators of horror movies?

realized something,

Bai Qiquan suddenly looked at Lu Jian who was sitting in front.

With the light of the movie, Bai Qiquan could see that Lu Jian was watching them quietly in a dark corner, like a calm and understanding killer observing his target.

Just the look in Lu Jian's eyes made Bai Qiquan suddenly chill, and he hurriedly turned his eyes to continue looking at the screen.

In contrast, the movie clips are not so scary.

After the ten-minute screening ended, there was silence in the auditorium.

Bai Qiquan saw that the people around him were trembling, their eyes were bloodshot, like social animals that hadn't slept well for a long time, or like security guards at a crematorium.

He thought about it and pretended to be scared.

He saw Lu Jian stood up, came to a few people, and took a look.

"It looks like no one is qualified."

He said something to himself, and waved his hand again.

"Can you still stand up?"

Several people stood up tremblingly, and walked out of the auditorium under the leadership of Lu Jian.

There seemed to be no interviews after them, and the office was empty.

Bai Qiquan pretended to be stunned by the fright, trying to recall how he behaved when he was frightened by the movie before.

Although he came for an interview, it seemed that staying here might be even scarier.

They walked to the stairs and went downstairs one by one. When Bai Qiquan was around, Lu Jian suddenly stopped him.

"You wait a moment."

Bai Qiquan's body stiffened suddenly, and his heart beat faster than when watching a horror movie.

"Yes, what's the matter?"

He turned his head, showing a forced smile.

"You were not frightened just now, were you?"

Lu Jian said in a deep voice.

"!"

The dumb hair on Bai Qiquan's head stood up, he really felt the fear, his eyes widened, looking at Lu Jian, he didn't dare to take a breath.

Lu Jian approached step by step, and Bai Qiquan became more and more uneasy when he heard his footsteps.

"Should I admit it? Or deny it?"

"What is he going to do?"

"I haven't deleted all the small movies on my computer hard drive. Wouldn't it be social death if they were discovered?"

Countless thoughts flashed through Bai Qiquan's mind, and he saw Lu Jian coming in front of him and patted himself on the shoulder.

"You passed the interview."

...

"So you've been interviewed?"

In the school cafeteria, Bai Qiquan and his girlfriend Pang Zhen are having dinner.

"Yes, and then he asked me to stay in the office all afternoon. I took the high-speed train this morning and packed up my things before I can go for an internship. I can start working after I get my diploma."

Bai Qiquan grabbed the rice bowl on the dinner plate and explained casually.

"So what did you do this afternoon, did you see his new movie?"

Compared with her boyfriend finding a job, Pang Zhen seems more interested in Lu Jian's new movie.

"How is it possible, I just sat at my desk all afternoon, uh, it's actually a bit strange."

Bai Qiquan said while recalling.

"Obviously there are only him and me in the office, but his eyes always glance at the desk next to me, as if there is someone there. Sometimes Director Lu will talk to himself as if he is talking to someone. It's weird."

"Is this a second-round interview test? It's like the kind of boss who sweeps the floor to test you. Did you say anything?"

Pang Zhen approached and asked.

"How is it possible? He works there himself. He only showed me the contract, and there are some things I don't understand."

Bai Qiquan scooped up the last bit of rice topped with a spoon, put it in his mouth, chewed and thought about it.

"what?"

"I don't have much impression. It seems that there are pictures of wolves, some people in armor, shadows and so on. Mainly, I don't know the meaning of these pictures."

Bai Qiquan put down the plate and spoon.

"What about the salary?"

Pang Zhen asked again.

"The salary is very high! I looked it up and found that during the internship period, I have the salary of a master who has worked for several years."

Bai Qiquan is quite satisfied with the salary. His classmate who graduated from the same year entered the film crew to do odd jobs for a month and only paid a few thousand yuan. He graduated to 20,000 yuan, and Lu Juan also said that he would pay for food later. Wrap it up, it's simply not too cool.

As long as he lived frugally, he would be able to pay the down payment for a house in Jiangcheng in only five or six years!

Thinking about it this way, it seemed that he suddenly became sad again.

"I'm so envious..."

Pang Zhen couldn't help saying.

"Would you like to go to the interview too?"

Bai Qiquan said casually.

"I'm not going, who wants to work with some crazy guy who likes to make disgusting movies...well, I'm not talking about you."

"No, although Director Lu looks weird, he is actually a good person. He even sent a message today saying that he has found a dormitory for me, so I have time to visit it."

Bai Qiquan opened WeChat and showed his girlfriend the photo of the dormitory that Lu Jian sent today.

Pang Zhen took the phone and saw that it was a quite secluded community, and the house was also a well-decorated house, with two bedrooms and one living room, very spacious.

It's just that when she looked at the photo carefully, she always felt that something was wrong.

"Look, why is there a person hidden behind the curtain here?"

She pointed to the picture of the living room window, above the drawn and gathered curtains.

Bai Qiquan turned it over and looked carefully, only to find that there really seemed to be something on it.

It was...a human face.
