Chapter 152: Departure to the Desert
Chapter 152: Departure to the Desert
Time passed quickly, and soon the day of departure arrived. The entire crew of more than a hundred people boarded a plane to the Usu Desert.
"General's Order" is a male-dominated drama, with Li Mubai playing the role of Qin Zhao, the great general of the Shuo Kingdom. Qin Zhao is young and promising, and cares about the world. This drama tells the story of Qin Zhao's death in hundreds of battles to defend his country. There are two main scenes in the drama, one is the city scene, where the crew rented a location in the ancient city 250 kilometers away from the desert to shoot, and the other is the desert scene, where almost all the main plots of this drama take place.
Director Xu has always liked to shoot on location, striving to make every frame pleasing to the eye, so it took him six days to finish shooting the scenes in the ancient city, and then the group immediately moved to the depths of the desert.
The desert filming location was several hours' drive from the ancient city, and off-road vehicles on the set drove deeper into the desert one after another.
Everyone was excited at first, including Jiang Li. She thought the scenery was beautiful and took many photos with her camera, but the ride became unbearable in the second half. The desert sun was so hot that it was hard to describe it. Jiang Li, who never got carsick, felt uncomfortable for the first time in a long time. She couldn't help vomiting twice in the sun and bumpy ride. Soon, she looked like a wilted sunflower, and her face became pale.
Li Mubai's face was not looking good, but it was not because of discomfort, but because of worry. He kept hugging Jiang Li and letting her lean on his shoulders, wishing to transfer her discomfort and pain to himself.
Today is only the first day, and the subsequent filming will not be easy, but will be more difficult. But they seem to have no other choice but to persevere. If the final outcome is to separate, they must cherish every minute and every second now.
Fortunately, they finally arrived at the destination. As soon as the tent was set up, Li Mubai immediately helped Jiang Li in to rest. After she lay down, he went back out to help the staff unload the luggage and set up the tent.
After a while, Zhou Qian came over and brought her some freshly boiled hot water.
"Sister Li, you should take a nap first. I'll call you for dinner later."
"Okay, thank you."
"Hey, what are you thanking me for? Then you take a rest first. I'm going to go out and help."
After saying that, Zhou Qian hurried out to help. There were many people who were sunburned like Jiang Li. The director arranged for these "injured" to rest. There were not enough people to work, and everyone was in a hurry. Even Li Mubai went to help, so how could Zhou Qian sit idle, so he hurried to follow.
Jiang Li really felt that her bones were shaken apart, her energy and spirit were shaken away, and her whole body was very tired. As soon as Zhou Qian left, she slowly closed her eyes and fell asleep.
When she woke up, Jiang Li found that the light was on in the tent and Li Mubai was sitting in front of her camp bed reading a script.
"what time is it?"
Hearing the voice, Li Mubai closed the script and raised his head, and replied: "It's past nine o'clock."
"Huh? I slept for so long?"
Jiang Li sat up as she spoke. Seeing her stand up, Li Mubai immediately reached out and grabbed the coat that he had placed next to her and helped her put it on.
"It's getting colder, put it on."
Jiang Li asked coquettishly while putting on her coat: "I slept for so long, why didn't you call me?"
Seeing that she had put on her coat, Li Mubai turned around and poured her a glass of water, then replied: "I saw that you were sleeping soundly, so I didn't call you for dinner. I wanted you to rest more."
"Are you hungry? If you're hungry, I'll heat up some food for you."
Li Mubai saved dinner for her, a chicken leg for each of them. He was reluctant to eat it, so he picked it out and put it in her lunch box, hoping that she would replenish her energy.
"I'm not very hungry now, maybe later."
"Are you still feeling uncomfortable now?"
Jiang Li shook her head and said, "No more."
Sleeping is the best treatment. After waking up from a good night's sleep, she felt full of energy again.
"I want to go out and have a look."
"Okay, drink some water first, then we'll go out."
After drinking the water, Jiang Li was finally allowed to get up. Li Mubai stepped forward to help her lift the tent, and the two walked out one after the other.
Large and small tents have been set up around, some people are still busy outside, but most people have already gone into the tents to rest. After a bumpy day today, everyone is very tired, and there is still a long battle to fight, so it is better to rest early, after all, health is the capital of revolution.
Only when she walked out of the tent did Jiang Li truly feel that the temperature had dropped. It had only been a few hours, but the temperature and the scenery were completely different.
The surroundings were pitch black, and from afar, the endless sand dunes looked like sleeping black dragons. The sky seemed so close that the vast Milky Way seemed to be within reach, and the stars in the sky were as bright as diamonds.
Looking at such a magnificent scenery, Jiang Li felt that she suddenly became insignificant, and the magic and power of nature seemed to suddenly have texture.
"Li Mubai, do you believe there are gods in heaven?"
Li Mubai followed Jiang Li's gaze towards the vast night sky and replied, "I believe it."
"Do you really believe it?"
Li Mubai turned his head to look at her, his eyes brighter than the stars in the sky at this moment: "You can come to me, what else can I not believe?"
Li Mubai looked at her seriously, his expression focused and attentive. Jiang Li felt that at this moment, Li Mubai's eyes were particularly deep, like the universe, like the starry sky, containing everything in the world, and also her.
For some reason, although there were still some voices coming from some tents, Jiang Li felt that the whole world was nothing but the whistling wind. And in her eyes, there was nothing else except Li Mubai.
Li Mubai was the same. He kept looking at her intently. His gaze first stayed on her eyes, then on her fair and smooth face, then her straight nose, and finally, on her lips as bright as peach blossoms.
Li Mubai glanced at Jiang Li, as if to ask for her permission. Seeing her drooping her eyelashes shyly, Li Mubai took it as a sign of consent, so he lowered his head and kissed her rosy lips.
Li Mubai held the back of her head with one hand and her waist with the other. Jiang Li felt as if her whole body was held in his arms, as if they were one.
The more Li Mubai kissed her, the tighter he hugged her. Their bodies were pressed tightly together, but Li Mubai felt it was not enough, still not enough.
Jiang Li was also addicted to it.
She loved Li Mubai's kiss very much. Li Mubai's kiss was so gentle and passionate. She could feel the passion and the care.
Jiang Li loved his hug, his kiss, his warmth, and his taste.
She wanted him to kiss her and love her all the time.
The two kissed for a long time.
It was not until a sudden "coo" sound was heard that Jiang Li awkwardly pushed him away.
Jiang Li touched her nose a little embarrassedly and explained: "I wasn't hungry just now, but now... I'm hungry."
Li Mubai couldn't help laughing, held her soft and warm hand, and said, "Then let's go eat quickly, my little fairy."
"What's for dinner?"
"Big chicken drumstick."
"Wow!"
"there's a few?"
"two."
"Wow!"
Hearing Jiang Li's "wow wow", Zhou Qian even ran out of his tent, but when he saw Li Mubai was with Jiang Li, he knew that there was no need for him to stay, so he went back to the tent and played cards with his colleagues in the crew.
The long night began, and even the desert itself did not know that so many people had suddenly come to this quiet place, embellishing its long and lonely life.
