Depressive Screenwriter

The plot advances.

The black-haired assassin is naturally Kenshin, the fifteen-year-old Kenshin after his growth.

He is currently an assassin for a certain force in ancient Sakura Island's Kyoto, assassinating corrupt officials who attempt to exploit the people and engage in dirty political deals.

When Su Yan was shaping the Xia Kingdom version of Kenshin, he didn't use Kenshin's original blood-red hair in his character design, as it might be normal in anime, but too chuuni in a live-action drama.

The following plot is a flashback.

How Kenshin and his master Hiko Seijuro parted ways due to differences in philosophy.

The master-disciple dialogues between the two at the waterfall and stream are equally artistic.

"A sword is a weapon of violence."

"Swordsmanship is the art of killing. No matter how beautifully you decorate it, you can't change this fact."

"Even so, I will use this power to save those who are suffering. Even if it's just one person, one life, I will personally protect them."

"In spring, view the night cherry blossoms; in summer, gaze at the stars; in autumn, respect the full moon; in winter, accompany the fine snow. With these, the sake will naturally be delicious. If you still feel it's not enough, it's probably because you're ill. You will one day understand the taste of sake. At that time, let's share a cup."

The portrayal of Himura Kenshin, Hiko Seijuro, and the various forces in Kyoto for nearly ten minutes, with the occasional wording and phrasing, often made Chu Yumeng and a group of viewers pause for a long time to think.

Amazing.

Chu Yumeng couldn't find any faults here.

The script's portrayal of that chaotic world and its epic feel was too strong. She even empathized with the people who were bullied by thieves, corrupt officials, and local bullies in that era.

And felt happy for Kenshin's dirty assassination acts.

The flashback ends.

The slender sword wound on Kenshin's cheek, inflicted by Kiyosato, has never healed, and the wound always bleeds on the night of the full moon.

"I've heard such superstitions, that a sword wound containing strong resentment will never heal until the resentment is resolved."

Kenshin's information transmitter from the organization behind him, a bearded man named Iizuka, said so.

The comments at this moment:

【玄学开始？不要啊，我要看武侠。】

【玄学开始？不要啊，我要看武侠.】

【Don't start with metaphysics? No, I want to see wuxia.】

【Don't start with metaphysics? No, I want to see wuxia.】

【Don't start with metaphysics? No, I want to see wuxia.】

【Don't start with metaphysics? No, I want to see wuxia.】

【Will there be wuxia demon slaying later?】

【What resentment? It's obviously a wound infection. Isn't it normal that it's not easy to heal in that era?】

【Maybe it's scurvy. Kenshin might be a picky eater and doesn't eat vegetables.】

【Anemia?】

Chu Yumeng moved her gaze away from the passing comments.

She now understood that this drama wasn't just a simple martial arts drama.

Kenshin in the past, full of hope and attempting to save the world, contrasted with his current self, a murderer, wooden, silent, and numb inside.

Perhaps he was indeed the number one assassin in Kyoto, killing like a demon, but he was also just a fifteen-year-old boy with hope in his heart.

The more the plot progressed, the deeper the sense of loneliness emanating from Kenshin became.

The following plot consisted of four or five consecutive assassination battle scenes involving Kenshin.

The actor's movements were increasingly beyond Chu Yumeng's imagination.

Later on, even the comments couldn't stand it anymore.

【Why are the action scenes still so realistic with wire work? Also, wire work can't improve the actor's reaction speed, right? Is it possible for Kenshin to draw his sword so fast?】

【It's a bit outrageous. Kenshin's movements are completely different in speed and agility from the people around him. Even if it's post-production special effects adding details, this actor is too fierce, right?】

【How can the leg muscles of the actor playing Kenshin control so accurately without slipping during those multi-stage turns in the running process? Such strong balance?】

【Is the quality of Xia Kingdom's action martial arts dramas already this high?】

【Came after seeing the trailer, thought it was an action drama, but the plot is also unexpectedly good!】

The plot advances.

In the rainy night, a woman wearing white clothes stepped into a small pub.

With bright eyes and white teeth, clear and cold eyes, and skin as white as snow, Chu Yumeng's heart almost skipped a beat the moment she appeared.

Stunning, beautiful, and that temperament.

Chu Yumeng had a good memory and immediately remembered that this woman was the childhood sweetheart fiancée of Kiyosato, who was killed by Kenshin at the beginning of this episode.

She...came to Kyoto too?

She picked up her wine glass with a lonely expression and sipped it lightly.

Afterward, she left the pub with an umbrella.

At this moment, the god-tier background music from Kenshin's original OVA began to play.

When the system exchanged Kenshin's Reminiscence arc for Su Yan, it came with the related BGM information. As for Su Yan, he simply copied the sheet music for this god-tier interlude, "In Memories A Boy Meets The Man", over the past month.

Then, he spent some money to hire some recording studio people to help record it, registered the copyright, and then, in the name of the screenwriter, got Ayumi Shinozaki to agree to use it as an important interlude in the Kenshin drama.

At first, this pure music BGM was very soothing, but as the plot progressed, the music carried a tragic feeling.

The camera switched.

Kenshin walked alone in the dark night. In a dark corner, a fierce man wearing a mask, holding a chain and knives, waited on Kenshin's inevitable path.

Chu Yumeng's sense of tension rose.

The camera pulled up, then pulled up again.

The overhead view showed that the alley where Kenshin and the masked assassin were fighting, and the alley where the woman left with an umbrella, were two intersecting alleys.

At the moment when thunder sounded, the chain-masked man failed to sneak attack Kenshin and engaged in a head-on battle with him.

Both of them were like apes, using the walls of the alley to roll, jump onto the walls, and then fight on the ground, with fierce and smooth movements, and the murderous aura in their expressions and eyes could be transmitted through the screen.

It was another gorgeous fight, and the best battle scene in the first episode so far.

Because Kenshin finally encountered an opponent who wasn't killed with one strike.

In the alley, the woman with the umbrella walked forward in small steps in the rain.

The BGM kept pushing forward, seemingly reaching a climax.

The chain on the chain man's hand was thrown out, spun around, and bound Kenshin. He no longer hesitated, fell from the eaves, head towards the ground Kenshin, holding a sharp blade and stabbing at the young man.

The Kenshin in the play had the same indifferent and calm expression as always.

With a twist of his wrist, Chu Yumeng didn't react, and the front-handed sword in his hand instantly turned into a back-handed sleeve sword. The chains binding him were pulled towards his face by the masked assassin under the force of his waist.

Tear!

Under the moon in the rainy night, two cold lights intertwined.

The figure in the air was cut in half from head to toe by the sharp blade, and fresh blood mixed with rainwater formed a water arc and splashed towards Kenshin's front.

All of it was sprinkled on that beautiful figure.

The BGM reached a climax at this moment.

Blood, a fallen umbrella, and the girl's hand holding the umbrella were covered in blood stains...

The woman's footsteps stopped.

Kenshin knelt on one knee on the ground, panting heavily, with a murderous expression.

At this moment, on his left cheek, the sword wound that had not healed was now bleeding for no reason, dripping down Kenshin's chin.

He looked up, and the murderous aura on his face melted away like snow meeting the hot sun.

A woman wearing a snow-white kimono, but now her clothes were full of blood spots, her fair face was full of blood stains, and her eyes were clear and calm, stood in front of him...

White plum blossoms falling with blood.

This was a scene that made Chu Yumeng and all the viewers watching the first episode of Kenshin's hearts tremble.

Bloody, beautiful, and full of fatefulness, the two enemies met each other for the first time in this rainy night.

The woman looked at Kenshin, her eyes without fear, and slowly opened her mouth.

【You really are... a person who can bring bloody storms.】

Hearing her words, Kenshin's eyes were not indifferent and ruthless for the first time, but fearful and confused.

More blood oozed from his face.

The blade in his hand unconsciously fell from his powerful hand.

Chu Yumeng was stunned for a moment, but immediately reacted from the sense of loneliness created by the Kenshin in the plot.

Kenshin might have already realized in his heart.

The oath he once made in front of his master to save the suffering people with the sword in his hand had long deviated from its direction.

Perhaps he had always been just inciting bloody storms in Kyoto, being used to kill people numbly.

And this woman was the first person to say this to his face.

Rainwater washed away the blood stains on both of them.

The camera froze on this scene.

The two looked at each other.

The ending song started.

There was a gap of ten seconds on the screen.

No one sent a comment.

Chu Yumeng's heart was pounding.

The last shot was really unspeakably artistic.

How could there be such a fateful drama?

This is too explosive.

The ending song ended, and Chu Yumeng was still immersed in the plot.

At this moment, the takeout she had ordered had already cooled down, but she was in no mood to eat, and even the work she had to rush for overtime was no longer on her mind.

She searched for information about this drama on the Kenshin playback page.

She saw the two most critical pieces of information at a glance.

Screenwriter: Su Yan.

Kenshin's actor: Su Yan.

Su Yan.

Who is this!

Chu Yumeng searched for information about Su Yan on the Internet, but there was no information about him in the Xia Kingdom actor database or screenwriter database.

"Really, is this the first drama filmed by a pure newbie?"

Could this be possible?

Chu Yumeng's expression was a little unbelievable.

People who don't like works like Rurouni Kenshin will think it's meaningless, with an ancient background, slow plot progression, and not very refreshing.

But for those who like it, they will be fascinated at a glance.

Chu Yumeng was obviously the kind of person who fell in love with the work at first sight.

"A total of four episodes, updated every Monday..." Chu Yumeng gritted her teeth a little when she saw this.

She wanted to post something in the comment area of the Rurouni Kenshin playback page.

But at this moment, angry drama fans had already posted what she wanted to say.

The comment with the most likes perfectly represented her feelings.

【Sakura Network, are you sick? Only a short drama of four episodes, put all the last three episodes online at once! Do you think I can't afford it? It's also divided into four weeks of launch, and the director and screenwriter are also idiots, can you edit? Stopping here, people are not. The entire crew except for the actors involved, all are idiots, identification completed】

Online sprayers are not advocated.

But this comment did comment on her heart.

Chu Yumeng took a deep breath, reviewed several explosive and handsome scenes in the first episode of Kenshin again, and then exited the playback page.

At this moment, looking at the hot search list.

Rurouni Kenshin, which was originally outside the top 30 or 40 on the hot search list.

An hour after the first episode was launched, the popularity had climbed to thirteenth.

After thinking about it, Chu Yumeng sent the playback purchase link of Rurouni Kenshin into several of her friend groups.

Good works are to be shared with everyone.

Sorry, because I watched the LPL TES vs BLG game, so the update was late, a ten-year LOL fan, although I don't play much now, but I will still watch the game.

Let me say here that the author's update time is generally in the evening, but it will not be later than 12 o'clock in the evening at the latest.
