    Chapter 5 Yuhe Peach Blossom

    Huai Yan said goodbye to Wen Mo, and walked to the car at the door anxiously. Lu Jingyun first opened the rear door, paused for a moment, then closed the door again and turned to the front passenger seat. Watching his every move, Huai Yan felt like he was on stilts at first, and then suddenly fell to the bottom of the valley. When he sat in the back row, he felt relieved. If that person was sitting beside him, the journey would be very difficult. cramped.

    The afternoon sun rushed in from the car window and shone on Lu Jingyun's shoulder. He had a golden armband on his left arm, and the leopard leaping vigorously in the field was very similar to him - capable and cold, with a hint of wildness. He took out the folder from the right side of the car door and took out the red-headed document to read. Huai Yan took his eyes back and looked at the red maple trees and the old city of fireworks flying by the window.

    The Chen'an Army's garrison has a solemn and solemn atmosphere. The several artillery towers with flags are very high, as if they are bordering and touching the clouds in the clear autumn sky. Sentinels and snipers are arranged in each direction, just like the ancient buildings. The mortise and tenon are inserted there. In the camp, everyone exercises in different categories. To put it simply, the training of ordinary soldiers of the Chen'an Army is divided into two parts. The first is basic physical fitness, including heavy-duty walking, fighting, hooking ladders, and threading iron wires, etc. The main exercise is the strength of the body. , Endurance, balance, reaction speed; the second is the use of weapons, infantry learn to shoot, sprint knife, artillery learn to set up, reload, cavalry all day on the horse to aim at the target, can be said to have their own division of labor. To discuss strategic strategies such as defense and offensive, officers above the level of the regiment leader should participate. As for the improvement of weapons development and the procurement and distribution of arms, it is a matter directly under the central government.

    The location Lu Jingyun found for them was very close to his own tent. He took Huai Yan to the tent, pointed him to a bed, and arranged for a security guard, Xiao Zhang, to take care of Huai Yan, and left in a hurry.

    "Mr. Jiang, I'm so happy to meet you!" Xiao Zhang picked up the hot pot and tea jar, made a cup of Tieguanyin for Huai Yan, and brought it over graciously.

    Huai Yan thanked him with a smile, "Have you seen my play?"

    "No," Xiao Zhang laughed, "I am in the military camp every day, and I can only have one day off in January. The movie "Feng Ying" is very exciting, and we want to watch it too. The real person is prettier than the photo!" He was a slob, and without waiting for Huai Yan to speak, he said with a smile: "Mr. Jiang, I have to thank you today, I did a heavy-duty cross-country training session in the afternoon, and I was beaten up the next day. It's like a sudden, so fucking tired! I escaped once, how can they envy me!"

    Huai Yan liked Xiao Zhang's straightforwardness and liveliness, and asked with a smile, "When you train, will the head of the regiment be with you?"

    "Yeah!" Xiao Zhang couldn't take it easy, and made a bag of peanuts from the drawer to give to Huai Yan, and said while chewing, "Actually, the regiment commander doesn't need to participate, there are several battalion commanders down there. But our regimental commander...he is an iron man...to participate with us, without any sympathy!" He whispered: "Mr. Jiang, I see that you are good-natured and approachable, so I will tell you. To be honest, don't choose him as an instructor."

    Huai Yan said, "Why?"

    "The reason why he is called the head of the Iron Man is because he is tough on the outside and inside. He can wear people to death with a zipper! If he faints, he will drag it down, and if he can't hold on, he will be thrown out." Xiao Zhang muttered, his eyes respectful again. He was also afraid, "He's not close to women, he's not married, and he has no hobbies... You said, what is the difference between a human being and a machine..." Huai Yan heard him say that Lu Jingyun had not yet married, but he was still in his heart. It was a move, he stood up and said, "We have nothing to do, let's go and see them practise."

    Xiao Zhang pulled him to persuade him, "Don't go there, the autumn tigers in the suburbs are poisonous! You, you thin-skinned and tender flesh, will get sunburned again! I can't afford to delay your filming progress!"

    "Why are you so squeamish, the filming will start in a few days, and you must be in the sun every day!" Huai Yan smiled and was about to go out, Xiao Zhang had to follow behind him. As soon as the two of them left the military tent, they saw a lot of people in the courtyard. The sedan was originally from Jinghua's large army, so Huai Yan said goodbye to Xiao Zhang, cheered up and went to find everyone to help them organize their belongings.

    All afternoon, things were almost put together. The leaders of several groups and the leading actors hurriedly ate a big pot of rice in the cafeteria. Just as night fell, everyone sat around the empty field for a meeting. While practicing in the distance, the sound of shouting and chanting came intermittently, and finally entered the Western Mountains. The autumn insects chirped and the cool breeze was refreshing.

    "Browning's Love" is about the romantic love in the military. Compared with the delicate female perspective of "Feng Ying", the plot mainly shows the growth and transformation of the male protagonist Xie Diping. Huai Yan has many scenes and performances. The difficulty is great, and the filming task of the crew is also heavy.

    Liang Wenmo made a phone call and came to participate in the discussion. His new book has just been updated with five chapters, and there is still room for Huai Yan to revise it. "Browning's Love" was written as early as this spring, although the plot can also be discussed with everyone. , make some adjustments, but after thinking about it, Liang Wenmo decided not to change too much, which also highlights his great trust in Huai Yan.

    Xu Zhengyang and several casting producers from Jinghua watched Huai Yan around for an hour. They came to the conclusion that Huai Yan's sense of complexity was not enough. Xie Diping's unavoidable ruthlessness and numbness after the rest of his life on the battlefield in the Xun novel, these are internal things, which are related to Huai Yan's own growth environment, and are more difficult to grasp. These are all secondary.

    During the discussion, Xu Zhengyang exchanged glances with everyone several times. These old and hot eyes were saying that Huaiyan is not suitable for this role, but now Liang Wenmo has taken a fancy to Jiang Huaiyan, and no one is willing to be the first to say it. People - Father Liang's business in Nanyang is directly linked to the government, and the network of connections here is so dense that He Zhengxu, the Minister of Literature and Art, may not be able to figure it out. Furthermore, there are a lot of audiences who only look at the appearance. Huai Yan stood in front of the camera wearing a military uniform, and he could also be fascinated by a large film. It is not a problem for the movie to make a fortune.

    In fact, Xu Zhengyang is a type of director who has higher requirements on himself. He is unwilling to have any shortcomings in the service, casting, plot setting, etc., but he has been in the Yanyun literary and art circle for so long, and he does not compromise. Not until now, when he saw that everyone nodded silently, he didn't say anything more.

    After everyone's discussion, Huai Yan and the heroine Bai Feng were given half a month to familiarize themselves with the military camp, integrate into the roles, and receive training. Xu Zhengyang strictly demanded that fifteen days later, Xie Diping must appear alive at the foot of Xishan!

    Huai Yan has a clear mind. Although the expressions and words of several leaders are still euphemistic and friendly, he understands the hesitation in their eyes. After the meeting, he returned to his small tent and looked up at the dark Xishan nearby, feeling as if it was pressing hard on him.

    Getting in touch with Jinghua's most successful director, getting Liang Wenmo's green eyes, going straight from a supporting role to a leading role, going to an art training class that is only available in colleges... Such opportunities are the envy of all actors in the literary and art circles, Huai Yan I never thought that I would have the opportunity to stand in front of the camera, who was holding the lights for the lighting engineer, and earn the salary of the previous year on the dock in this month... If I can't grasp this time given by God Chances are, Huai Yan will hate himself for being incompetent.

    He was alone, he didn't have much requirements for food and clothing, and he didn't pursue luxury, so it was useless to ask for those wages. But Huai Yan knew that there was a lot of silver dollars. Xiao Bing's mother could take more medicine for a few days, Aunt Zhu and the others could buy more meat for Meng Meng to eat, and the children in the church orphanage might be able to watch more. several books.

    Making yourself stronger is actually a kind of protection for those around you. The three years that Huai Yan came to Hutong has been really difficult. After entering the film studio, he also realized how big the gap in life is for the same people. He thought of Liang Wenmo's high-spirited appearance in the alley, and he made up his mind to make a good movie. His fame was too easy and his mind was simple. At this time, he had never thought that in this literary and artistic scene, if he couldn't keep going Stay high, you may not be able to retreat.

    Huai Yan spread out the army green mattress, turned on the light, and studied hard while holding the script. Previously, reading this article from a reader’s perspective only felt romantic and exciting, but now as an actor, I brought it in to fit Xie Diping, and sweat broke out on his forehead. Xie Diping was a double agent and was betrayed by his childhood friend in the army. , was interrogated and tortured by the enemy, and later escaped from prison, sneaked into the new army under the code name of "Browning" to perform tasks, and met the female chief Cheng Yizhen, and the two fell in love...

    Huai Yan was suddenly at a loss, Di Ping's experience was too rich, but he had no idea what he had experienced in the past. What amnesia left him were only basic life instincts and the innate beauty. Maybe there are some artistic talents and interests, but these alone are not enough to support this role.

    Am I really up to the job? What if it doesn't work well? Huai Yan's mind was confused, but he heard Feng Jian, the head of the clothing team, call him outside, "Huai Yan, are you asleep?"

    "Not yet." Huai Yan rolled over and sat up from the bed, walked over to open the door, "Mr. Feng, what's the matter?"

    "Your uniform is quite special. It needs to be half-old and battalion commander level. I will ask Chief Lu to find it for you. You can go to him and try it now. If it suits you, use it. If it doesn't fit, I will find it for you. "Feng Jian still carried a large bag of clothing in his hand, and hurriedly went to distribute it.

    Huai Yan wanted to follow him away, but after taking two steps, he returned to the tent. He looked in the mirror and washed his face with a fragrant pancreas. He carefully wiped off the water stains on his face with a towel, and then pushed open the fine folds of his gown. . Feeling that his face was fresh and his body was clean, he pushed open the door and went out. As he walked towards the two-story building to the east, his heartbeat could be clearly heard in the darkness.

    Lu Jingyun's bedroom was on the innermost side of the second floor. The dim electric light shone through the window and softly illuminated the corridor at the foot of Huaiyan. He felt an inexplicable warmth. He knocked on the door twice, and the person inside said solemnly: " Enter."

    "Sir Lu..." When Huai Yan opened the door and looked at him, he couldn't help but breathe.

    Lu Jingyun had obviously just returned from the camp, the sweat-soaked camouflage vest was sticking to his body, showing his strong chest and abdomen, the black belt around his waist was meticulously fastened, and the tough muscles on the inside of his hips were hidden. In his trousers, a strong and masculine breath struck, Huai Yan glanced at it, and his cheeks became unstoppably red, and for a moment he forgot what he was here for.

    Lu Jingyun didn't look at him, he sat on the bed with his back turned and pointed to a set of military uniforms on the table, "Your people said they wanted half-old military uniforms, I got a set for you, try it."

    "Thank you, Mr. Lu!" Huai Yan let his thoughts return to his position, carefully picked up the suit, and smelled a not very heavy, but fresh and hearty atmosphere like the forest in the morning, Huai Yan's mind felt as if Something melted away, humming and squeaking, and the strange shock when I first saw it came up again.

    He resisted the emotions in his heart and unbuttoned his clothes, only to find that there was no screen in Lu Jingyun's house. He wanted to go back and replace it, but then he felt that he was being hypocritical, so he turned his back to the door and took off his long shirt.

    At this moment, Lu Jingyun turned around and saw Huai Yan's snow-white body under the lamp. Only then did he realize that although Huai Yan was thin, the muscles on his body were very tight. There are also two pale pink scars on each of the straight shoulders, like the peach blossom forest belt flying outside the clouds on both sides of the Yuhe River in Yanyun City in spring. Straight, slender legs...

    Xu Shi was training with the soldiers today, and the evaporation consumed too much water in his body. Lu Jingyun suddenly felt tight in his throat and felt astringent in his heart. He couldn't help but get up and walk over. He shouldn't ask more, so he stopped.

    Oh hoo. . .
