In order to calm An Qi's uncontrollable pure young heart, when he first met the little snake demon, Lie Yan couldn't help but fall into a daze, his face pressed against the rough ground, his black hair covering everything so that not a single trace could be seen, including those almost transparently red little ears.

  A small snake demon supported its hands on both sides of his head, and its feet knelt on both sides of his waist. It slowly lowered its head, and its small nose sniffed repeatedly. Unbeknownst to it, as it distinguished the human scent, its own scent also unrestrainedly drilled into Lie Yang's nostrils.

  "Got it! OK!"

  As soon as Xu Linlang spoke, An Qi swiftly and suddenly darted out from under Xiao Jing's body with a speed that was too fast to be seen, only stopping after hiding behind a large tree. His eyes were unfocused, but his pupils shone with a bright light, his face flushed to the roots of his ears, and his earlobes were so red they seemed almost transparent.

  Who can't see where his problem lies, that must be stupid! —— For example, Jingchen sister!

  Xiao Jingchu knelt on the ground, staring blankly at An Qi's figure disappearing in the distance. Bai Xijing walked up and pulled her up, Xiao Jingchu slowly patted the mud on her skirt and said, "Dad, what's wrong? Are you uncomfortable?"

  Everyone was silent... Suddenly, Bai Xijing couldn't help but feel sympathetic towards An Qi!!

  Under the sympathetic gaze of the staff, An Qi continued to play with Xiao Jingchen in a painful yet joyful manner. Due to his own thoughts, he portrayed the unspeakable emotions of Lie Yang towards the little snake demon vividly, making the filming progress very smoothly.

  The setting sun leaned against the base of a large tree, its last rays barely visible. A small snake demon carefully cleaned his wounds, and the sunlight filtering through the layered leaves above cast dappled shadows on them, creating an atmosphere that was peaceful, serene, and warm. At this moment, the hazy and ambiguous mood made the onlookers outside the camera frame involuntarily feel a slight pang of tenderness in their hearts.

  The little snake demon, who didn't understand human emotions, couldn't comprehend the uncomfortable feeling in her heart as she watched Lièyáng's back disappear into the distance. She coiled around the giant tree, silently gazing at Lièyáng's vanishing figure. Her black and white eyes gradually revealed the vertical pupils of a giant python, and with a flash of ferocity, she suddenly felt an inexplicable irritability, attacking the small animals passing by for the first time on her own initiative.

  Unfortunately, the hunt could not relieve the discomfort in Xiao Snake Demon's heart. She followed her wild instincts and chased after the disappearing Liet Yang at top speed. Just as she was about to reach the foot of Kunlun Mountain, she caught a strong smell of blood, as if drawn by some kind of fate. The little snake demon suddenly turned around and chased towards the source of the smell, and saw... another heavily injured Liet Yang!

  "Cut! Alright, everyone take a 10-minute break!" The scene of the fierce battle between Lieyang and the monk was finished, now it's time to film the shot of the little snake demon falling from the sky.

  Xiao Jingchen sat in the embrace of Bai Xijue, holding a poor little squirrel that should have been killed by the annoying Xiao Yaoyao. The little squirrel was playing happily, rubbing and touching, and kissing. As it was a pet raised by humans, it wasn't afraid of people, and Xiao Jingchen had a kind of animal-friendly charm on her body. So, the squirrel girl hugged her tail and showed off her cuteness, making Xiao Jingchen's heart bloom with joy, and she didn't want to let go.

  The battered An Qi took the juice prepared by his assistant and walked to Xiao Jingchen's side while drinking, poking at the little squirrel, "Is it fun? If you like it, I'll give it to you! We have several more at home."

  Xiao Jing's eyes sparkled as she looked up, "Really?"

  An Qi's face turned red as she stared blankly at Xiao Jingchen and nodded foolishly, "Really."

  Her big eyes curved into a crescent moon shape, and her smile was sincerely sweet as she said "thank you".

  An Qi: "......" was rolled over like a cooked crab.

  Most of the fighting scenes in Journey to the West use special effects, and when filming, they rarely use real swords and knives. They just need to follow the sequence of movements, and then add the special effects later using computer technology. As a result, the martial arts skills of the actress who played Zhu Wuneng were hardly used, and her only function was to fly around like a lightweight, but most of the time, wires were used instead.

  When filming "Jiang Hu Sha" initially, although Baili Yao's martial arts skills were exceptional, Jingchen was only six years old. Director Tieying rarely filmed scenes requiring her to perform aerial stunts or long-range shots using wires; instead, editing and body doubles were used for special effects. Even the high tree trunk rooftop jumps were all done by little Jingchen relying on her own abilities and various acrobatic moves.

  So, the little snake demon falling from the sky was Xiao Jingchen's first time using Wēi Yǎ!!

  Humans are land animals, once completely off the ground and without a foothold, they can only hang in mid-air with two steel cables tied to their waist, and will inevitably experience symptoms such as cold sweats, dizziness, numbness of hands and feet, etc. Therefore, almost no one who hangs upside down for the first time is not afraid.

  It's just that adults are afraid and will try their best to adjust, but minors...

  Looking at An standing quietly there, allowing the staff to help tie up Wei Ya's little dust, Xu Linlang also felt a bit nervous in her heart. She repeatedly comforted her N times that if she was afraid, she would call out and the staff would immediately let her down. The flying shots behind were many, but the most important thing was not to rush the progress, but the effect of the little snake demon effortlessly soaring between heaven and earth!

  Xu Linlang spoke once, and Xiao Jingchen nodded once, without any sign of impatience.

  Everything was ready, the staff gave an "OK" gesture, pulled the steel cable, and Xiao Jingchen's waist tightened, her body slowly rose, her feet left the ground, she subconsciously kicked a little, her hands also unconsciously waved around, the staff hastily stopped to let her get used to this height, but as soon as Xiao Jingchen moved, the safety rope also swung uncontrollably, although not by much, but enough to make people nervous.

  Xiao Jingchen swung back and forth like a pendulum, her big eyes blinking dazedly as she couldn't help but burst out laughing. Her slender waist twisted, the amplitude of her swing growing larger and larger, her laughter also becoming clearer and more resonant, causing the people below to shiver with fright.

  This vicious sister is too bold and reckless!

  Wei Ya slowly rose, all the way to the crown of the iconic big tree. Xiao Jing's toes lightly stepped on the weak and windless leaves. At the bottom of the tree, An Qi and the actors, as well as the extras A, B, C, and D, all took their positions. Xu Lin gave a loud "Start!"

  The little snake demon exerted a bit of force on the leaves, and in an instant, it shot towards the ground like an arrow leaving a bowstring, its speed so fast that only a faint shadow remained. Its small claws suddenly extended and directly grasped the throat of a cultivator who was about to attack Lieyang, and with a squeeze, "Crack!" The trachea shattered...

  This was originally just a movie shoot, but somehow, whether it was the staff's speed in setting up the scene or the actress's heavenly descent, both the extras within the camera frame and the crew outside felt a wave of icy killing intent sweep past them. Their spines chilled, their buttocks clenched, and their hearts leapt to their throats before they heard that sound like a summons from hell: "Crack~" The sound of bones shattering...

  Lian Xu Lin Cang were all frightened by a sudden shock, hastily shouting "Ka! Ka!! Ka!!!".

  At midnight, Cinderella's magic disappeared in an instant. The scorching sun in June burned the earth, and the murderous aura disappeared like morning dew. The world returned to warmth, and everyone involuntarily let out a sigh of relief. The monk who had his throat crushed directly did a fish flop, covering his throat and crying bitterly.

  Xiao Jingchen stood still, blinking his eyes blankly, innocently staring at the pale faces of the crowd, his small paws colliding with each other.

  Xu Linlang secretly wiped away a cold sweat, looking at the playback of the filming effect on the camera. The moment the small snake demon appeared, whether it was the cultivators or Lieyang's expression, it was... perfect!!! ——Perfect to the point where there was no trace of "acting" because they were really scared stupid!!!!!

  To appease the "army's heart", Xu Linyuan decided to suspend filming. After shooting for so many days, the scenes of Kunlun Mountain's intense sunlight and Xiao Shediao have basically been completed. Next is just some supplementary shots that don't require actors but... the true form of Xiao Shediao!

  The next day at noon, Xiaojingchen was feeding Xiaosongshu after lunch. Suddenly, Xiaosongshu seemed to have received an extreme shock and screamed non-stop in terror. The fluffy hair on its body stood up like steel needles. Xiaojingchen looked puzzled, tilted his head, and released the hand holding Xiaosongshu's paw. Xiaosongshu immediately darted into Xiaojingchen's large sleeve and trembled with fear, refusing to come out again.

  At this time, a commotion came from the foot of the mountain, and then a huge iron cage was sent up. The cage was covered with thick velvet, and it was impossible to see what was inside. Along with the cage came many staff members wearing zoo uniforms. The oldest uncle walked directly in front of Xu Linzhuang, smiling very brightly, "Director Xu, we've brought you what you wanted. Don't worry, with us here, this beast won't hurt anyone."

  Xu Linrang nodded gratefully, "Thank you, thank you, Old Wei. You've really helped us out."

  "It's nothing, it's nothing. You've also helped us a lot, it's only right." As he spoke, Old Wei led the group to unload the iron cage from the transport truck. The bottom of the cage had wheels and could be freely pushed around, but the things inside were obviously very heavy, requiring four people to push together.

  The iron cage was placed in a corner near the forest, and the zoo staff all breathed a sigh of relief, resting for more than an hour, after making preparations, Xu Linlang began to clear the scene, unrelated personnel all hid far away, Lao Wei's colleagues each held their own tools on one side, waiting in array, everyone made an "ok" gesture, Lao Wei slowly opened the outer canvas of the iron cage with a tense and serious expression.

  "Hiss——" The sound of frightened gasps rose and fell.

  All that could be seen was a huge iron cage, inside which was a python, its body brown with evenly spaced black spots on its back. It coiled itself layer upon layer, occupying almost the entire cage, and it was impossible to tell how long it was, but it was much thicker than an adult man's thigh. As it basked in the warm sunlight, the lazy python slowly raised its head, lightly hissing.
