Using memory for exchange is never a good thing.
The harbor place emphasizes the "anchor point", which in popular terms is memory. Those who remain in the harbor can continue to maintain themselves by sharing a common memory, while those who have completely lost their memory will become so-called "ghost ships." This is Lu Ning's rough judgment on the information he got during his trip to the seaport.
Therefore, it is normal for those alien creatures to crave memories. But judging from Chen Anhui's appearance, the memory exchange did not seem to have any major impact on him.
"The purpose of inviting everyone here is two-fold." Zhan Qiuxin put out the cigarette, "First, I want to exchange experiences at the harbor, because a person's short-term understanding of the place must be one-sided. Secondly, I want to know if you have any bizarre experiences in the past two days, just like what Chen Anhui experienced."
Lu Ning tacitly agreed not to go see Mei Yu.
"Then let's talk about the harbor first." Lu Ning said, "If my guess about the harbor is correct, you and I shouldn't have entered the same place, right?"
"Obviously. The seaport I arrived at was a desert town, and I only came into contact with two shop owners there. One of them was the water merchant Yangliu, who was a character in the scene that I had met in the mission before. The other one was The owner of the workshop, Rosette, I have never met him before, but this man has a very strong passion, just like the machines in his workshop roaring all day long.”
"What is the anchor they use to retain people?" Lu Ning asked.
"Obviously, right? Water and machinery, although I didn't see any of them."
Lu Ning thought for a while and also told about the people he met on Rose Street.
The anchor point used by Lu Ying is basically a "scar". Although physical pain does not sound very high-end, it is indeed something that can leave a deep impression on people. If it is used as an anchor point, it is estimated that Lu Ying is actually a "scar". Business is booming.” As for Dr.D, they looked for Lu Ning more like they were looking for a companion they could assimilate. Lu Ning was not sure whether the anchor they used was a "companion" or a more profound "blood descendant."
The different states of the two sides made the two sides start to compare the differences between them, but the two harbors actually have the same essence-abnormality, madness, mystery, and some creepy environments.
"...Finally, I fell into the well and was able to return to reality." Zhan Qiuxin sighed, "Fortunately, I had a good relationship with Yangliu, but I didn't expect to meet someone with the same personality in this world. People who remember past scenes. But I remember that the real people I met here basically don’t have those memories, they are just like different people. Is it true that only those who exist in the harbor retain memories?”
"Not necessarily. Dr. D recognizes me, but in fact the things it turned into did not recognize me. Either becoming a monster affected its intelligence, or there are other judgment conditions." Lu Ning said.
"It's useless to pursue this now. This mission is all staged, right? It means that things happened in sequence. But we have some bad news." Chen Anhui raised his hand, "About 9:30 last night When I was there, I learned about the death of a colleague.”
Lu Ning and others were a little shocked by this information. It was not so easy for third- and fourth-level tourists to die immediately. Their experience advantage allowed them to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages in time. Everyone had their own set of precautions against danger. means. And Chen Anhui's next words made everyone's hearts sink even more.
"Unfortunately, we can only tell you this piece of information now, and this is probably because tourists have some special characteristics to stay." Chen Anhui sighed, "I am very sure that until we went to bed yesterday, we all still remembered The name of the colleague, the place of his death, and some related movements. But for now, what I just said is all we know."
Information is disappearing bit by bit.
"I doubt very much that in a few days, we will even forget the death of this colleague. And everyone who died in this scene will probably face such a result." Chen Anhui glanced at Lu Ning and several others. Pass.
This also means that even if someone obtains some information at the cost of his life, that information will disappear with the disappearance of his life. In this scene, death is not as simple as the end of life. It is very likely that those things that originated from the deceased will also return to zero. Although no one wants to die, even death has no meaning now.
"We need to filter all the information we get through our own cognitive methods." Ke Daolin said seriously.
"This is not easy. The information about the seaport is brought back by a few people. Unless you go to the seaport in person, if the two of us die, you will not know what is going on there with the USB flash drive." Zhan Qiuxin He curled his lips and said, "Similarly, if Chen Anhui dies, the USB flash drive and the source information will probably fade away, and we won't remember that such a weird store existed."
"Then we have to work hard not to die here." Lu Ning said.
"Of course, who wants to die? We are just discussing the worst possibility." Chen Anhui smiled.
"Okay, then the next thing that needs to be discussed is..." Zhan Qiuxin continued, "What should we mainly do next."
As a result of the phased tasks, tourists have not yet seen the follow-up tasks and cannot judge what dangers they will face in the future. However, the danger is now around us. If you are used to inferring the threat of the scene based on the final mission goal, you may feel extremely uncomfortable at this moment.
To be honest, the first two tasks are basically insignificant. Even if they are done step by step, it is difficult to get any effective information. Lu Ning could see that the other party's people had some anxiety because of this. As for his own side... Mei Yu and Qu Yi were not in good condition either.
"The first thing is to contact the tourists." Lu Ning raised her finger, "Since someone's death will lead to the loss of information, in turn it is indispensable for us to build a large enough information network. For example, now we exchange After receiving the information, even if one of Zhanqiu and I dies, our understanding of the harbor will not disappear."
"This is what we are doing." Chen Anhui said.
"Okay, the second thing is to try to find an 'extraordinary existence' like that shop while avoiding the seaport. Theoretically speaking, in order to fight against supernatural existence, we must also master supernatural power, and now it seems This is a channel, and we should know more about this channel." Lu Ning stretched out a second finger.
"Yes, we need to collect more possibilities. After all, we don't know that any tourists have supernatural powers. If we want to deal with this behind-the-scenes situation that is weirder than ordinary ghosts and superpowers, I don't have much confidence. ." Guo Xiao immediately supported.
"The third thing is to investigate the main responsible parties such as the capital and construction parties behind this base. Although our actual scope of operations is not restricted, we who are responsible for filming tasks are almost restricted to this film and television base. The distribution center may imply that the source of all this can be found here. Nowadays, the film and television base is not fully open, and the most important thing here is the people related to shooting. Finally, the name of this scene [Fatal Shooting] actually also implies that the shooting talent It’s something that’s really problematic.”
"Well... this is true." Zhan Qiuxin stretched out her hand to touch the cigarette and lowered her eyes slightly, "We are now a little eager to contact tourists and increase self-protection methods, but we have neglected some things about the scene itself. Indeed, we cannot ignore the reality. It’s possible that someone in the world is doing something nefarious to cause those weird situations.”
Then, Lu Ning talked about the actors and actresses, and Chen Anhui immediately said that he would find a way to get in touch with them next. In contrast, people here in Lu Ning also obtained information about people from the "base group", and the dead people were tourists from the "base group".
However, the situation in the base team is a little complicated. The two people Chen Anhui came into contact with were named Qiao Gao and Pu Dongning. They were relatively friendly and willing to communicate with other tourists. It was through these two people that the news of the tourist's death was learned. . But the people in the other three base groups belong to the very unfriendly category. Contrary to everyone else's thinking, they think that they know everything, so that the death of others will not interfere with themselves, and in order to get more secret Intelligence can be used to any extent.
"Such tourists... are not uncommon." An Youxi nodded, "But they don't dare to mess around yet. After all, we all have only a little understanding of the scene now, and lone wolves are not stupid."
"It's true that these people don't pose much of a threat in the early stages. Just pay more attention to them in the later stages." After Chen Anhui finished speaking, he asked everyone in his team to briefly repeat what they had said before. Lu Ning did the same thing here.
After the exchange, Chen Anhui and others immediately said goodbye and left. As tourists who could move around freely, they were actually quite busy. Lu Ning silently blessed them in her heart, and when only her group was left, everyone spoke again.
"If the intelligence is accurate... we have to be more careful about the things that come to our door."
"It's strange... we have all experienced some strange things anyway, right?" An Youxi analyzed while eating, "But these things are not fatal, at least our panic response seems to be fine. I originally thought This is all a show of force to scare us first to build up a sense of terror. Unexpectedly, some tourists have already died...that would be very strange."
"Yeah." Ke Daolin nodded.
What happened to everyone, such as what Mei Yu encountered before, it can be said that she had almost no resistance. Apart from asking Lu Ning for help, she was completely led away. In the end, Lu Ning actually failed to do anything substantial. help. If we go by the standards where tourists have already died, she would actually have died long ago.
It's not a bad intention, but it's true.
"We have encountered so many things in a daze, and there are no problems now. Why did the tourist die?" An Youxi asked the question.
"Maybe it's because we are still in a daze that there is no problem." Ke Daolin said.
Lu Ning was also thinking about this. Just like when she knew nothing about the harbor before, she suddenly met Lu Ying who helped her, and Zhan Qiuxin also met the merchant Yangliu who could help her. It was hard to believe that this was just a coincidence.
——Those who don’t know have nothing to do with it.
Because the tourist's death has become a complete mystery, it is reasonable to infer that he died because the investigation progressed too quickly and he violated some taboo. At least this possibility cannot be completely ruled out. Everyone generally agreed with this guess. After eating, they returned to the filming location.
Unexpectedly, a quarrel was taking place here.
Director Yu Zhan was not here, after all, it was still a while before the official start of filming, and the screenwriter and the second heroine were arguing on the scene, and they seemed to be arguing about a plot arranged in the script.
Lu Ning didn't understand the professional aspects of acting. What she learned from Shu Xingruo were all practical skills and had nothing to do with filming. Since one of the two people quarreling was famous and the other had a strong say in the crew, people around him didn't dare to dissuade him. Maybe someone was secretly sending a message to the director.
"What caused the quarrel?" Lu Ning asked Che Nai who was hiding in the corner.
"Hehe... It was after discussing the script that the screenwriter went to communicate with the actors. As a result, the two of them started arguing for two minutes. Maybe Sister Qin felt that the script arrangement was a bit unreasonable, right?"
"What's unreasonable?"
"Uh...she said that the adjusted character is a little different from her understanding? Originally, this character secretly helped the male protagonist actually had some ambitions of her own, and even meant to use the male protagonist's revenge to sacrifice the protagonist to complete her goal. It was just the last moment. I just gave up after failing the link. But probably because this hidden line was not easy to shoot during the time, the screenwriter planned to cut it off..."
"Isn't this a villain? How can she still be the second heroine?"
"It failed." Che Nai shrugged, "Anyway, Qin Zhilan said that the character changed after cutting off the lines and some details, and asked the screenwriter to add them again. The screenwriter didn't want to cause more trouble, and the two of them talked about it. There’s a quarrel.”
Lu Ning looked up at the two people who were arguing. The screenwriter is the chief screenwriter for these two episodes of the show. He seems to have a good personal relationship with Yu Zhan, and his relationship is relatively strong. He also has a strong voice in the group. The celebrity Qin Zhilan he was quarreling with was a top-notch woman. She was young and beautiful and had excellent acting skills. She was also a child star. Among the huge cast invited this time, her status was firmly within the top twenty, second only to Some old and powerful players.
However, when Lu Ning looked carefully, she felt that Qin Zhilan was not actually angry, or in other words... her mood was actually in a very calm state, and her anger was just an external act.
