Su Xinghe completed the task of catching ghosts for the first time in his life and felt that his career as a Taoist priest had taken a big step forward.
At the same time, the first drama he participated in is also going to be launched on satellite TV and will start broadcasting.
So Su Xinghe didn't go out these days, just waiting for "Full Palace" to start airing.
Of course, there is another reason why he doesn't go out, and that is that the side effects of the elixir not only affect his soul (?) but also affect his body.
Specifically, except for Qin Xuan, everyone who saw him felt that his eyes and face were also round.
For example, Zheng Ming was very surprised: "Brother Su, I always thought you had peach blossom eyes, but now I think they look a bit like cat eyes."
Zhang Qing was also puzzled: "Your weight hasn't changed, so why is your face rounder? Fortunately, you don't look fat, it just feels smaller."
Su Xinghe's facial fat had long been lost due to the filming of "The Universe", but in just a few days, it grew back again. It seems that the smaller he gets, the cuter he becomes.
It's really cute. Su Xinghe used to be a little white poplar and a little sun, but now he looks like a kitten with fried hair.
Why is it fried? Because although his eyes and face are round, he is surprisingly sharp in some key places.
For example, his chin is still pointed, but his cheeks are round, and the tails of his eyes are slightly upturned, which does not give him the innocent look of doe eyes at all.
This change occurred, and everyone agreed that the culprit was President Qin, who took Su Xinghe on vacation.
Yes, several insiders knew that Mr. Qin and Su Xinghe were on vacation.
This vacation has made people fat!
Fortunately, they can accept this fatness, otherwise, they would have to go to Mr. Qin to cry, make trouble, and hang himself.
Within a few days, "Full Palace" was launched.
Qin Xuan and Su Xinghe directly made an appointment at home to watch the show together.
Su Xinghe is still a little nervous, this can be considered his small-screen debut.
If the acting is bad...
Wuwuwu, it shouldn't be a bad performance, right?
He hugged the pillow on the sofa and stared at the TV nervously.
Qin Xuan turned his head and saw a chubby little monster with round eyes and fluttering wings. He was so nervous that he put all his weight on the pillow in his arms.
So cute!
After watching the little monster for a long time, it has changed from ugly to very cute.
At least Qin Xuan now had the urge to reach out and touch Su Xinghe's head. It would be better if he could pull his wings.
However, Mr. Qin still held back. He planned to wait until Su Xinghe was in a good mood and ask if this was possible.
After all, he wanted to touch the soft-looking fur and the chubby little wings.
It was the theme song of "Full Palace" that drew his attention back, making him regretfully pull his eyes away from Su Xinghe and focus his attention again on this TV series invested by Tiancheng.
As soon as the theme song started, several protagonists appeared one after another.
Although the male and female protagonists looked good-looking, Qin Xuan didn't notice them because, at the moment, all he could see was Su Xinghe flashing across the screen.
Completely different from the Qiu Xuan Immortal Lord he had met before, Su Zezhi was a young man from an aristocratic family who made people fall in love with him at first glance.
Both his temperament and figure are impressive.
Especially when he stood under the peach blossom tree, turned around, and smiled at the camera.
For a moment, Qin Xuan felt that the peach blossoms were nothing more than that, not as good as the smile of the person in front of him.
After the theme song, they finally entered the main film.
The plot of the first episode is the wedding of the male and female protagonists. The female protagonist is sitting on a sedan chair with a veil on her head, tightly holding an apple in her hand. What echoes in her ears is the bad news she heard a year ago—her fiancĂ© died before their wedding.
On the other side, the male protagonist was also sitting silently in the study. When he heard the sound of ritual music outside, he lowered his eyes and sighed.
In the first episode, Su Xinghe just appeared as a name in the heroine's memory.
Su Xinghe had been nervous for so long but found that there was no picture of him at all, so he could only imitate the male protagonist and sigh heavily.
Fortunately, in the second episode, the heroine finally didn’t think of his name anymore.
Thank you, hostess!
What the heroine recalled was naturally the first time they met.
It was the Lantern Festival, and she was traveling with her family. Along the way, there were bright trees and beautiful flowers, luxury cars, and horses, and it was extremely lively.
It was under such circumstances that she met Su Zezhi.
A young man in a moon-white robe was standing in front of a word-guessing booth, holding a lantern in his right hand, as if he were reading the puzzle on the lantern.
Fireworks bloomed in the sky just in time, illuminating that handsome side face.
Perhaps he had guessed the riddle, the boy raised his lips slightly.
In an instant, the carved horse carriage and the dragon and fish lantern dance were all eclipsed.
It seemed that only the boy's smile was left in the whole world.
Everyone has indeed searched for him countless times. Suddenly looking back, that person was there, in a dimly lit place.
The girl was so moved.
Not only the heroine was tempted, but many viewers in front of the TV were also tempted.
On the night of the Lantern Festival, the sound of the phoenix flute moved, and the light of the jade pot turned.
The young man with extraordinary temperament stood quietly in a corner with scattered lights.
Brilliant lights, scattered fireworks, laughter, and colorful streets all became a blurry background.
Only the young man's profile was shining brightly under the lanterns.
As soon as this picture appeared, the barrage exploded.
"Who is he? Who is he?"
"Oh my god! He looks so good that I get goosebumps!"
"What kind of magical mirror is this? What kind of magical background is this? What kind of magical actor is this!?"
"No wonder the heroine likes it, I like it too!"
This short scene instantly became a hot topic that night.
Although the ranking is very low, the amount of discussion is not less at all.
Because the boy is so beautiful.
The moon, lights, and crowds of the Lantern Festival seem to be all designed to set off the young man’s smile.
Qin Xuan's heart couldn't help but beat wildly.
For a moment, he didn't dare to look at Su Xinghe next to him.
Because he was afraid that Su Xinghe would discover something strange about him.
His mind is shaken and dizzy.
Unexpectedly, he also experienced this kind of word that he had only read in books.
After the play ended, Qin Xuan hurriedly fled back home.
He felt that he could no longer watch dramas with Su Xinghe.
Just watch it alone.
"Full Palace" quickly became popular. It has a fast pace and good acting, and the emotional entanglement between the characters is very tense. The ratings are rising steadily. Many people are waiting for the show to start in the evening.
Su Xinghe's highlight comes at this time.
In the previous plot, everyone knew the relationship between him and the heroine—he was once the heroine's fiancĂ©, and the two had a close heart and liked each other.
After his death, the heroine kept asking about the cause of his death, but because she was a boudoir girl, she couldn't find out anything. She only knew that it was related to the fifth prince at the time.
At this time, she happened to be given to the fifth prince as a concubine.
So the heroine is extremely defensive of the hero from the beginning.
The male protagonist seems to be unable to see the female protagonist's defenses, taking care of her and being tolerant of her.
At first, everyone just thought that the male protagonist liked the female protagonist, but after a closer look at the plot, they felt that the male protagonist's care for the female protagonist did not seem to be out of love.
This mystery lasted until today's episode before it was finally solved.
Because Su Zezhi finally appeared in the hero's memory.
The young man, as bright as a jade tree, rode on a horse, with a silver saddle and a golden whip, and his shoulders covered with apricot blossoms. He smiled and said, "Your Highness."
The stubborn and pale young man kneeled on the ground, the candlelight was dim, his clothes were empty, and he bowed his head and called out, "Your Highness."
The young man, covered in blood, lay in his arms, gasping for breath. With his last bit of strength, he called out, "Your Highness."
In the memory, Su Zezhi stopped at the age of eighteen forever.
It stayed in the hearts of the male and female protagonists, and even more so in the hearts of all the viewers.
Such a handsome young man is unique in the world.
Su Xinghe shed a lot of tears this night.
Most of the fans of the drama were crying for him, for the young man named Su Zezhi.
So one night later, Su Xinghe finally had a name and was upgraded from the 1800 line to the 180 line.
Tiancheng also specially hired several experts to edit videos of him. In the videos, there were scenes of him smiling slightly, scenes of him enduring the pain, and scenes of him jumping off his horse without fear of life or death.
These videos are extremely well edited, with Su Zezhi’s entire life being edited in them.
Even Su Xinghe himself felt unable to calm down for a long time after watching it.
He couldn't calm down, let alone others.
Tiancheng immediately bought hot searches and put several of Su Xinghe's highlights in the hot searches. As soon as these videos spread, Su Xinghe's number of fans skyrocketed that day.
The official blog also cooperated with the promotion and posted several personal tidbits about him.
Everyone's favorite tidbit is the part where he rides a horse and gallops—his smile is bright and there is no gloom at all.
It's like the dead young man has returned to his most carefree time.
"’When we were young, we were dressed in fine clothes and rode horses.’ This was our Zezhi. Wuwuwu..."
[*Sai: The audience reads sentences from a poem. Tang and Song Dynasty Poetry, the source of the phrase 'Young man in fine clothes and vigorous horses’ from "Magpie Bridge Fairy" by Yue Fei. It was about the story of a young hero who died young for his beliefs.]
Regret and sorrow made the audience remember Su Xinghe deeply in their hearts.
Therefore, although Su Xinghe's scenes are pitifully small and the total scenes in the whole drama are less than forty minutes, he is more likable than the second male lead, who appears in almost every episode.
Director Huang had anticipated today's situation early on, so he was not surprised at all.
As long as "Full Palace" becomes popular, Su Xinghe will have a name.
Even though he was just the third male lead, at least he made a name for himself and people remembered him, which was not easy.
It’s not easy to be a 180-tier star!
At this time, "Let's Adventure Together" also released a pilot trailer, and by the way, all the participating stars were @, the last one being Su Xinghe.
Fans of "Let's Adventure Together" were stunned. Their show often had flying guests, but every time they invited at least third- and fourth-tier stars. Where did this Su Xinghe come from?
People followed the Weibo post and found out that it was the third male lead of the recently hit TV series "Full Palace". Some people who followed the series were naturally happy, but some who did not follow the series were not so happy. They subconsciously felt that this star was once again promoted by capital.
Otherwise, why would such a newbie be able to appear on the popular variety show "Let's Adventure Together"?
The people on the program team saw the comments below were getting more and more outrageous, and they were angry and dissatisfied.
Mr. Su's program relies on his strength, which is completely different from those celebrities who rely on their money!
If it weren't for Teacher Su, they might all have been killed by that female ghost.
Although they didn't dare to mention this matter to others after they came back, after all, the experienced Mr. Qin warned everyone that the more you talk about this kind of thing, the more they will follow you, so everyone kept their mouths shut.
But no one has forgotten the last experience. The more they think about it, the more frightened they become. Only Teacher Su can calm them down.
So their entire program team is a fan of Teacher Su!
But after the director heard this, he waved his hand casually and said, "Black and red are also red. If a star is not black, his popularity is about the same. Mr. Qin understands this, and Teacher Su should also understand."
But the director didn't take it lightly and immediately started hyping it up.
So the public opinion that was questioning Su Xinghe just now changed to "Why didn't we see this star in the previous live broadcast?", then changed to "Why was the live broadcast of this program interrupted?", and finally became "I felt it was weird when I watched this live broadcast, there can't be any supernatural events."
After the live broadcast was cut off, the program team only sent an explanation, saying that the signal was not good in the mountains, but everyone who knows about it knows that if the signal was terrible, the program team would not choose this place.
So someone immediately analyzed the recorded live broadcast, which lasted less than ten minutes, scene by scene.
Then they discovered that the old house they had photographed was indeed a bit strange. Especially under the big locust tree, it seemed as if there was a figure of a woman in red hanging there.
That blurry screenshot suddenly made people's hair stand on end.
What's even more creepy is that someone found Su Xinghe's registration information on the Taoist website.
This male No. 3, who just had a name, turned out to be a Taoist priest!
...
So this episode of "Let's Adventure Together" has both ghosts and Taoist priests. What about the promise to join the small scientific team you previously agreed to?
