Chapter 9

Li Manzhen forced a smile on her face: "Miss Yu, have you forgotten that you came to the crew to be my substitute?"

Yuyao, who was surrounded by little fans, raised her head: "It's my turn to play?"

There was something wrong on her face. Write "Why did you die so quickly?"

When Li Manzhen thought about filming in the scorching sun while Yuyao was enjoying herself, she felt extremely unbalanced.

"Yes, I have hypoglycemia. There is an action scene later. Can you please come on stage?"

Li Manzhen leaned on the folding chair. The assistant helped her take out the vegetable juice prepared in the morning. After taking a comfortable sip, Li Manzhen who felt anxious,  finally felt relieved.

The following scene shows Ji Mengge going to a banquet with the young master and encountering a murderer. In order to save the young master, Ji Mengge fought with the thieves and was injured.

Song Yuan, the martial arts master of "The Legend of Meng Ge", once won the boxing, gun and knife championship in the national martial arts competition, and is famous in the industry for being very demanding. She had collaborated with Director Song once before she retired. At that time, she paid someone to practice for three full months. She was so injured all over her body that she could hold a beautiful sword flower, and then she barely got Director Song's approval.

Yuyao rushed up to ask for advice, and Li Manzhen could already predict that she would be scolded bloody.

She closed her eyes and fell asleep, and said to the assistant next to her who was holding a small fan for her: "Call the makeup artist over. You can go to the scene to see the situation. Take a video of her being scolded and I will watch it tonight." 

On the other side , Director Song knew that she was Li Manzhen's stand-in as soon as he saw the little girl wearing the same clothes as Li Manzhen.

It's normal for female stars to have their own stunt doubles, but usually action scenes are still done by men. It's simple, men are more resistant to stunts.

Asking a little girl named Didi to serve as a substitute was not a deliberate attempt to torment her.

Director Song didn't have a good look on his face and coughed in his old smokey voice: "Are you the heroine's substitute?"

Yuyao nodded.

Director Song: "Have you ever filmed a martial arts scene?"

Yuyao: "No."

Director Song: "Have you ever taken the initiative to find a teacher to teach you in private?"

Yuyao thought about it, her former teacher was her father's great protector, and he would always beg her to teach her swordsmanship. The Great Protector said that she has great talent and as long as she practices diligently, she will definitely become a female devil who is feared by the world in the future.

But she is too lazy. She spends her days either playing with cats or walking dogs or eating and drinking. She has never taken the initiative to learn from the Great Protector.

Now thinking about it, if she had been more diligent, maybe the Guangming Sect would not have fallen into the hands of thieves.

Oh, what a pity...

She shook her head honestly: "No." 

It was the first time that Director Song saw an actor with zero experience who could still speak plausibly. He immediately became furious: "If you don't know anything, what are you doing here?"

Yu Yao said firmly: "But I'm smart and learn quickly."

Director Song sneered: "A child with a yellow mouth is talking too much."

Seeing that he didn't believe it, Yuyao slapped her chest again: "It's true, I can know any swordsmanship at a glance."

The more incompetent people are. The louder the tone.

The most talented actor he has ever seen is the actor Si Yuan. His swordsmanship is powerful and neat, and his moves are like a dragon waving its tail like a meteor. In addition, various weapons and boxing techniques are also readily available.

Watching his performance is truly an ultimate pleasure.

Hexagonal men like Si Yuan know how to be modest and prudent, and will not say what they think will happen.

Director Song: "I think you won't shed tears until you see the coffin."

"Then let me see how quickly you learn." He pulled out a prop soft sword from the weapon rack, turned around gracefully, and with a cold light . Suddenly, there was the sound of swords.

Director Song's swordsmanship is not bad in this world, but it is far behind compared with Yuyao's great guardian master. Most of the moves are in the form of performances, which are flashy and impractical.

After completing a set of moves, Director Song was panting from exhaustion. When he turned around, he happened to catch Yuyao yawning.

Director Song's face darkened and he gave up the idea of ​​demonstrating it to her again.

"Come and give it a try."

Director Song drew a lightweight prop sword from the side and threw it at Yuyao.

Yuyao raised her hand and received it accurately.

This surprised Director Song, but no matter how neatly she caught the sword, it didn't stop him from circling in his mind the words to ridicule Yuyao later with his hands on his hips.

Yuyao weighed the prop sword in her hands and immediately realized that the sword was too light.

She went to the weapon rack and replaced it with the sword that Director Song had used just now.

Director Song narrowed his eyes slightly and reminded aloud: "Little girl, don't be brave, be careful of getting hurt."
