"No way, am I really going to do this?" Qiu Ke widened his eyes in astonishment and frowned tightly.

At this moment, Qiu Ke's heart was full of confusion and helplessness. He really could not accept the script written by Carl.

He couldn't help but complain in his heart: How on earth did this guy come up with this kind of plot!

He even asked him to saw off Valletta's eight artificial limbs one by one, and then cruelly abandoned her in the freezing snow, watching her slowly die from the cold.

Although he knew that all this was just a performance according to the script, for some reason, Jake still felt an indescribable uneasiness and reluctance in his heart.

He couldn't help but recall the entanglement and pain Mike had just experienced when facing a similar situation. Now he seemed to finally be able to empathize with him...

At this moment, Violetta seemed to see through Jack's thoughts and comforted him softly, "It's okay, Jack, I know you didn't mean it. Anyway, we are all acting, so just let it go."

As soon as she finished speaking, Violetta paused for a moment, as if she had thought of something, and then added: "Besides, if I finish the filming sooner, I can take off this heavy and clumsy prop equipment as soon as possible. It's really uncomfortable to lie on the ground like this all the time."

.................................................. ........................

"Oh!!!!!" Accompanied by a terrified scream, the entire space seemed to tremble with the sudden shout.

"......"

After a brief moment of silence, there was only a heart-wrenching silence.

Lydia stood there, looking straight at Jack who was sitting at the end of the stairs.

She bit her lips tightly, her face full of worry and helplessness, and finally couldn't help but say: "Should we stay away from the stairs here in the future?"

How many times had similar scenes occurred since they entered this manor?

Every time someone slipped and fell from those seemingly ordinary but mysterious stairs, Lydia would secretly wonder in her heart, is there some deep hatred between these stairs and them?

Well, if you think about it carefully, this possibility is not impossible.

After all, it’s not without reason that people keep encountering accidents here.

Let’s first look at the shaky staircase in front of you. It is so dilapidated that it is beyond imagination and cannot be described by a simple word “broken”.

The wooden boards that made up the stairs had long since rotted away, and when people stepped on them, they made a harsh creaking sound, as if they would break and collapse in the next second.

Look at the nails used to fix the stairs. Many of them have suddenly popped out, like ferocious fangs, ready to deal a fatal blow to passers-by at any time.

What’s even worse is that in some places, the wooden boards were so severely decayed that large pieces were missing, forming shocking holes.

In such a situation, if pedestrians were not careful and looked down at the road while walking, or if disabled people like Qiu Ke stepped on it rashly, falling down would be almost inevitable.

Or to put it this way, it was purely a coincidence that Jack fell down the stairs, but looking at these dilapidated and crumbling stairs, it seemed as if they had been gnawed away by time beyond recognition.

It was already so damaged, could it be considered an accident if someone stumbled and fell here? Obviously, it was inevitable!

Fortunately, however, Jack was only a few steps away from the bottom of the stairs.

Because of this, even though he fell heavily to the ground, at most he only felt a burning pain in his buttocks, and did not suffer any other substantial injuries.

"Honey, are you okay?" Natasha was anxious and rushed to the bottom of the stairs as fast as the wind. With a worried look on her face, she carefully checked whether Jack was injured.

Her eyes were full of concern and worry, as if she would be heartbroken if she found even the slightest scratch.

"This staircase really needs to be repaired!" Jose Badem looked at the dilapidated and crumbling stairs in front of him and finally couldn't help complaining.

He moved his feet carefully, fearing that he would fall off accidentally.

You know, he only has one hand that can be used now. If he lost a leg like Jack, he would have been smashed to pieces long ago.

Norton, who was standing by, heard what Jose said and shook his head helplessly: "You'd better give up. Do you think we haven't tried to repair it? Let me tell you, it will be useless even if we repair it." Norton's tone was very firm, as if he already knew the whole matter.

It turns out that in this mysterious and strange manor, there is a strange phenomenon - all objects will automatically return to their original appearance the next morning after a night.

No matter how much effort people made the day before to fix or change them, it was of no avail.

Norton had personally experienced this situation. Once, he took great pains to find a suitable piece of wood to repair one of the steps that was severely damaged.

He carefully measured the dimensions and polished the wooden board meticulously. After working for most of the day, he finally restored the step to its original state.

However, when the sunlight shone into the manor the next morning, Norton was surprised to find that the steps that had been repaired yesterday had returned to their original dilapidated state, as if everything he had done before was in vain.

Faced with such a desperate situation, people gradually stopped wasting their energy on repairing these things. After all, no matter how hard they tried, they could not change this cruel reality.

.................................................. ........................

Fortunately, Qiu Ke was fine. He rubbed his butt and stood up from the ground.

"Are you okay, Joke?" Violetta wanted to come over and help Joke stand up, but in her current condition, she had difficulty walking by herself, let alone helping Joke up.

"What are you doing here?"

Such a big commotion just now must have attracted other people. The novelist stood on the first floor, looking at the almost chaotic situation in front of him, and couldn't help but say.

After the novelist came the acrobats, the clowns, the savages, and the journalists.

Just when everyone was about to explain, Carl suddenly interrupted, "Wait a minute, everyone. We may not be able to go directly to the greenhouse. Brother Qiu Ke, you acted out one scene wrong just now."

Carl, who was still on the second floor, checked the video he had just shot and found that the scene just now was the one where Margaretha mistook the Weeping Clown for the Smiling Clown.

When he was still a crying clown, Joke clapped his hands three times and then turned around on the spot. However, when he put on the mask and became a smiling clown, he only clapped his hands twice and turned around twice. This was wrong.

"If you don't believe me, check it for yourself." After saying that, Carl turned the instrument in his hand over and asked Jack to take a look to see if he had really made a mistake.

And in these two scenes, it was not only Joke who made mistakes, but others also had problems——

Originally, in the scene of the Crying Clown, Brother Mike should have stood outside and Uncle Murrow stood inside, but when it changed to the Smiling Clown, they stood in the opposite position, with Uncle Murrow standing outside and Brother Mike standing inside.

"That's true......"

Just now, everyone finished shooting one scene, took a break, and then started shooting another scene.

(Mainly waiting for Joke to change his clothes. After all, they can't just wear a mask and be so perfunctory. The hair and other things must be slightly modified. Moreover, the clothes of the crying clown and the smiling clown are different, and both need to be changed.)

But I didn’t expect that so many mistakes would occur in just 20 minutes.

"And if you look carefully, the position of the phonograph is also wrong."

Natasha only had one problem at this time. It was true. The phonograph, which was supposed to be placed closer to the door, was placed inside the room when filming the second scene.

Since these two scenes need to be switched back and forth and overlap, the scenery inside cannot be changed in general, so it is certain that they need to be re-shot.

"Fortunately, the only one who has gone to the first floor is Jake."

José Badem used this opportunity to tell a bad joke.

It's true. Joke wanted to go to the greenhouse to check out the scene first, so he was the first one to go down. Then as you can see, he fell down, and the rest of the people, including other equipment, almost all stayed on the second floor. Now, as long as Joke climbs up, they can reshoot.

"It's not funny at all." Joke rubbed his sore butt with a resentful look on his face, while climbing up and staring at Jose Baden with his resentful eyes. (?_?)

"By the way, do you guys want to come and watch? You can just watch from the side as long as you don't make any noise." Carl shouted downstairs while lying on the railing on the second floor.

.................................................. ........................

So what was I thinking? Why did I come here?

The novelist was almost speechless. He couldn't leave even if he wanted to. If the price of coming to watch was to help everyone organize the equipment, then he would have no complaints. It was just a handy thing to do.

But how could he forget?

The clown was also among the people who rushed over at that time. How could he have the courage to stand next to the clown and watch? The resentment in the clown almost set him on fire.

"Sergey, you dance so well!"

"OK! It's over!"

"Hu————" Jack took off his mask and exhaled deeply. No matter how powerful he usually performed, he was still a disabled person after all. When he was dancing just now, the weight of his whole body was on his left leg, and he was exhausted.

"Honey, you're awesome!" Natasha came over and threw herself on Joke. The scene just now was from the first-person perspective, so he only needed to shoot a part of the hand scene and then he could stand aside and rest.

But it’s different with Joke. Joke has been dancing here for the whole afternoon!

"Sit down and rest for a while, senior. After this scene is over, we have to wait a while before we can go to the greenhouse." Mike brought a bench to Jack.

It's still daylight now. Although the owner of the manor can directly adjust the time and turn it into night, why bother? Wouldn't it be better to find more reasons to rest?

"Valletta, don't lie down directly on the ground. It's cold. I'll go find you a carpet."

Muro saw that Valletta wanted to lie on the ground to rest, so he stopped her. Although Valletta couldn't stand up, she couldn't lie on the ground directly, because the weather was so cold!

However, just as Jack sat down, he stood up again because he accidentally saw...

"Mike............." (▼皿▼#)

(⊙x⊙;)Shock!

Jack walked behind Mike silently, stretched out his strong and powerful hands, grabbed the back of Mike's collar, and easily lifted him up like a chicken.

At this moment, Mike was chewing the snacks in his mouth voraciously. His cheeks were puffed up like balloons, his eyes were round, and he was trying desperately to swallow these delicious foods quickly.

"Hey! I'm talking to you, Mike! If it weren't for my good memory, I would have almost forgotten that among our group, besides Muro, you are the oldest! What's the matter with you? Are you the reincarnation of a starving ghost? Can this bite of food kill you?"

Jack scolded Mike with a helpless and slightly disgusted look on his face.

To be honest, it would be more reasonable if their ages were swapped.

Thinking of this, Qiu Ke couldn't help but roll his eyes and muttered to himself: Does this guy behave like an adult at all?

Mike remained silent. It wasn't that he didn't want to refute Jack, but he simply couldn't speak at this moment!

His big mouth had long been stuffed full of biscuits of various flavors. If he didn't swallow the food smoothly first, even if he had a lot to say, he could only stare blankly and couldn't utter a word.

In response, Mike said, I don’t accept it!

<(`^′)>

There was no point in resisting, as Qiu Ke picked him up anyway and searched through every pocket for snacks.

Mike: ??(?′Д`?)??
