Chapter 1752: Bai Ze's Plan
"Yan Chixia from the world of the movie "A Chinese Ghost Story", please help him to let Ning Caichen and Xiaoqian be together." Hearing this voice, Shen Long sat up again. He used to ask for help to realize his wish, but in the end When I came to Yan Chixia this time, it turned into helping him fulfill other people's wishes. This Yan Chixia is really a good person.
Well, I am quite familiar with this story. After all, this work is also Shen Long’s youth memory. Wang Zuxian undresses, Lin Qingxia drinks, Zhang Min looks back, Li Ruotong is shy, Zhu Yin blinks, how many people’s youth are intoxicated.
This work is a masterpiece of the golden age of Xiangjiang movies. It is adapted from the short story "Nie Xiaoqian" in Pu Songling's "Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio". It tells the touching love between Nie Xiaoqian and the scholar Ning Caichen. Compared with the original book, the movie has made a lot of changes.
The first is the character of Ning Caichen. Ning Caichen played by Leslie Cheung is a bit timid and cowardly, but Ning Caichen in the original book is a generous and forthright scholar; and Ning Caichen already has a wife in his hometown, and his family is also very good , not the poor scholar in the movie who collects bills everywhere for his livelihood.
Yan Chixia in the original book is not a Taoist priest, but also a scholar, or a swordsman dressed as a scholar and walking around the rivers and lakes. Yan Chixia has superb martial arts skills and exquisite swordsmanship. It didn't take much effort to deal with the demons and ghosts in Lanruo Temple. He didn't need to do anything, just put the box containing the flying sword on the windowsill, and the flying sword would automatically hurt the monster.
The ending of the original book is relatively happy. After Ning Caichen restrained Nie Xiaoqian's bones, Nie Xiaoqian followed Ning Caichen back to his hometown and was always with him. After Ning Caichen's wife passed away, Nie Xiaoqian married Ning Caichen smoothly; The monsters from the temple wanted to trouble Nie Xiaoqian, but they were easily solved by the sword pouch presented by Yan Chixia.
Since then, Ning Caichen and Nie Xiaoqian have lived a happy life. Ning Caichen was admitted to Jinshi, Xiaoqian gave birth to a boy, Ning Caichen took another concubine, and they each gave birth to a boy. The three children later became officials, and their official voices were very good.
Well, this is a bit of a scumbag, but in different historical environments, the requirements for moral standards are different. In that era, Ning Caichen's approach was nothing.
As for the movie, Shen Long can recall it without turning on the tablet and rewatching the movie. Ning Caichen missed the place and had to spend the night at Lanruo Temple, and then met Nie Xiaoqian. The two fell in love at first sight. , seriously injured the tree demon grandmother who controlled Nie Xiaoqian, but fell into the control of the old black mountain demon. After a hard fight, Ning Caichen and Yan Chixia finally rescued Nie Xiaoqian.
This time I entered the movie version of the world, which is a bit troublesome, not only to defeat the tree demon grandma and the Montenegro old demon, but also to make this person and ghost together. In comparison, the latter point is more difficult to complete. After all, bringing the dead back to life is much more troublesome than killing the tree demon grandma and the Montenegro old demon.
Hey, how wonderful it would be if this was the original novel; um, no, if it were the original novel, then Yan Chixia would not need to ask for help, he could easily handle it by himself.
However, I am not without a way to bring the dead back to life. Although Nie Xiaoqian has been dead for a long time, her soul still exists, so the only thing left is to help her find a body, and then put her soul into the body; Long really has it, and there are more than one, but which method should be used?
Let's make preparations first, and then play by ear when we enter the world of "A Chinese Ghost Story". Now, let's start preparing the materials. This time, Shen Long doesn't need to do it himself, and he doesn't need to go to the world of "In the Name of the People" to find it. own secretary,
Shen Long reckoned that his secretary was also very curious, why did Secretary Qi keep asking me to find strange information.
"Bai Ze, help me find the relevant information of the 1987 Hong Kong movie "A Chinese Ghost Story", and pass it to me after screening. I need to enter this world to complete a task." Shen Long ordered, telling Bai Ze the content of his task, Then let him find the right material for that purpose.
"Received, please wait a moment!" The tablet computer lights up again, and the pages on the screen are opened one by one. The pictures of Wang Zuxian, Leslie Cheung, Wu Ma, Wang Jing, and even Jacky Cheung, Li Jiaxin and others flashed quickly; within a moment After a while, Bai Ze helped Shen Long find the information, "The information has been collected."
Shen Long took the tablet and looked at it. Bai Ze not only collected the data, but even sorted it out according to the standard, and listed a brief outline of the data. Shen Long didn't need to do any work, just picked it up and read it.
After hastily scanning the brief outline, Shen Long quickly determined the order in which to read the materials. First of all, of course, he had to start watching the original movies. He carefully finished watching "A Chinese Ghost Story: The Way of the Demon" and "A Chinese Ghost Story: The Way of the World". As for The third "A Chinese Ghost Story: Dao Dao Dao" and the prequel "A Chinese Ghost Story: The Immortal in the Painting" hastily scanned it.
The protagonists of the first two films are both Ning Caichen, and the plots are closely related, but the third one is a hundred years later. At that time, Ning Caichen and Nie Xiaoqian may have long since disappeared; while "The Immortal in Painting" is a prequel, and it is also related to the main story line. The main plot doesn't have much to do with it, just take a look and understand it.
After watching the original movies, and then reading the original novels, and then looking at the in-depth excavation of these movies by Xiangjiang Media, the memories of the crew members, etc. After reading these, the sky will dawn.
It doesn't matter if Shen Long doesn't sleep all night, he gets up to help his family prepare breakfast, and after eating, he goes back to his room to continue browsing the information.
Bai Ze even found him many online articles related to the world of "A Chinese Ghost Story", the reason is to see if the actions of these protagonists can provide Shen Long with some help and bring some inspiration; After a brief introduction, and a simple list of the strategies of these protagonists, it is not too late for Shen Long to read the original work if he finds something interesting.
Shen Long laughed directly when he saw this, "It's a good idea, but Bai Ze, do you think you have subscribed to these materials? It's not a good habit to read pirated versions. Anyway, we are not short of money, so it's better to read the genuine ones... Is it genuine? That’s good, if someone’s brain hole is adopted by me, remember to reward him with a golden alliance when you come back, it will be regarded as thanks.”
After hastily scanning through these outlines, Shen Long really found a few interesting ideas, opened the original book and read it carefully, and was almost ready to enter the mission world.
Before entering, he said a few words out of curiosity, "Bai Ze, by the way, do you have any good ways to help me complete this task?"
"Yes, based on known information, I have formulated the following plan..."
