Chapter 38: White Butcher

Chapter 38 White Butcher

Zhang Mengmeng was a little scared. Originally, It was just a scene in the game, but now It was so vividly presented in front of her. It was so real.

The most frightening thing was that this game was a horror game, and now she felt like she was entering into the scene of a horror movie.

“Yuan Zi, don’t tell me that your village has some kind of creepy traditions? Do you know if there is a ‘Soul Changing’ ritual in Luhua village?”

Looking at Luhua Village that was gradually getting darker, Zhang Mengmeng couldn’t help but feel a little frightened.

The various bloody scenes in “The myth of Luhua village” were played back in her mind, combined with the real Luhua Village in front of her, it made her can’t move her legs.

Of course, these myths and rituals were fictitious. After Lu Yuan explained, Zhang Mengmeng finally calmed down. However, her curiosity for Luhua Village began to rise.

What kind of people would use an ordinary village as a game’s background? And now they even began to release a strange animation, that they couldn’t even find on the internet, in the village.

Arriving at Zhou Yu’s house, the yard was still as crowded as yesterday.

The movie hadn’t started yet, children were playing games in the yard, the door of the toy house was open, and the toys that were piled up like a hill could be taken out and played freely.

There were planes, tanks, and guns, dolls, and house models, boys, and girls would always find something that they liked.

The most conspicuous one was the aircraft carrier. This giant was like a superstar in the toy house. It was inevitable to look at it when anyone came in.

Now there were also some naval tiny figures on the aircraft carrier as well. Those figures were glued onto the carrier in accordance with little Rat’s request. After adding those figures, the entire aircraft carrier became even more lively.

Especially the dispatcher that was wearing the ‘off your go’ high visible vest. The figure was doing the exact same pose as the dispatcher that was seen on the TV, it was really funny.

No wonder it could get on a TV show. Upon looking closely, the thing was extremely impressive. It was the first time for Lu Yuan had her friends to see the military models in real life. They couldn’t help but take out their phones to take pictures constantly.

After a while, the host – Zhou Yu finally came out. It meant the movie would start soon.

Lu Yuan and her friend quickly found a place to sit and opened their snacks and got themselves ready for the movie.

Only Zhang Mengmeng peeked at Zhou Yu from time to time and thought, “the white butcher! The real white butcher!”

This nickname came from the myth of Luhua village, in which Zhou Yu played a cold-blooded murder, who was crazily obsessed with heart-changing ritual.

Although he was not the final BOSS, the image of him, dressing the white cloak while performing the heart-changing ritual in a cold-blooded manner, had gained him a unique title – ‘white butcher’, and it was very popular amongst the players.

Although the graphics of the myth of Luhua village was not top quality, Zhou Yu appeared in its CG once. Therefore Zhang Mengmeng instantly recognized him.

Although she knew that it was just a game, the name of ‘White Butcher’ was too famous in the domestic gaming circle. So Zhang Mengmeng didn’t pay attention to the animation. Instead, she was constantly watching Zhou Yu. It seemed like she wanted to find out the Tranquiliser gun that he had in the game.

However, what she did was obviously futile. Because only the in the game character would hide his weapons behind him.

Perhaps Zhang Mengmeng’s stare was too fierce, and Zhou Yu seemed to be aware of it. When he looked back in confusion, they instantly had direct eye contact.

“Ah!” while Zhang Mengmeng suddenly screamed in fear, she instinctively leaned back without realizing that there was no one behind her. In the end, she fell over with her chair.

The scream was so loud that it attracted the attention of all the audience.

Lu Yuan and her other friends quickly helped Zhang Mengmeng to get up and asked her what happened. It was not a horror film. Why was she scared like that?

Being watched by so many people, Zhang Mengmeng’s face blushed like an apple. Fortunately, the visibility was very low at night. Unable to explain it, she could only say that she saw a rat running past her.

‘Ah… so embarrassing… it’s all that white butcher’s fault. Why did he suddenly turn around!’

Zhang Mengmeng got up in a huff, and blamed him for everything. But she, who had an embarrassing moment, didn’t dare to look at him secretly anymore. She began to pay attention to the animation.

……………………………

The movie played today was not “Calabash Brothers”, but the movie version of the classic anime “The Mice Shook and Beta”. It was a film that even Zhou Yu himself also felt that it was pretty good.

Although these two were not the original stories of Zhou Yu’s, the animation base already judged that the copyright of those two was nearly expired. Therefore, they could be adapted. But they still couldn’t be used for commercial purposes.

Because Zhou Yu didn’t know when the copyright of those works would expire in the real world, so he did not intend to release those two animations online nor did he intended to make profits from those two animations.

Besides, his account was suspended already. Even if he wanted to upload those two works, he still couldn’t do it. He just wanted to show the animations to those kids to make them happy. At the same time, he could also enjoy his childhood memories again.

The quality of the animation was still tier-three. The vehicles of Shook and Beta were longer that shabby like what he used to see.

The new J20 fighter, which nicknamed ‘Black Ribbon’ was so freaking cool when it was doing all kinds of maneuvers in the air. Type 99 tank was also moving fast like the wind. It made those children very excited and scream constantly.

However, the movie was set in 27 years later, describing after the forest hero Shook and Beta retired, they established the Forest Military Academy. They recruited all kinds of animal friends and trained them to protect the forest.

Pi Piru’s son Pi Xiaolu had become animals friend. He was working with animals to fight the pirates that returned to the forest again.

In addition to aircraft and tanks, they also added the new role – naval warships. All the vehicles from land, sea, and air were all in the movie. It made the originally hilarious battle scenes become a fierce flaming battlefield.

The main theme of the movie was still friendship and protecting the environment. But the existing battle scenes was more than enough to adults to watch it with their children.

No one would have expected that “The Mice Shook and Beta”, which was released in 1989, would be adapted this way.

Lu Yuan and her friends already gasped in shock, ‘Holy shit, this movie is extremely impressive.’

There were encouraging scenes where animals training hard to protect the forest, sad scenes where many animals died the cruel battlefield, and funny scenes were a little squirrel was doing all kinds of silly things. It was almost the same as those Hollywood blockbusters. The only thing that was lacking was that it was not in 3D.

Because they didn’t know if this outdoor cinema forbade other people to take videos or not, they didn’t dare to take videos blatantly. They only captured some of the most exciting scenes in the movie using their mobile phones.

They planned that once they returned to the city, they would ask around and see if other people knew anything about those movies.

Although they were an anime club, they were just a small group of amateurs who like to do cosplay. Maybe those professional people knew more about those movies?

The anime magazine photographer, who was asked about those movies by Lu Yuan, used to work with the anime club that Lu Yuan was in a few times.

At first, he just thought that Lu Yuan was overacting. There were only a few good domestic animation movies. But none of them needed to be reacted this way.

However, after he received the clips, he was also stunned. He couldn’t believe that those clips were made domestically. He almost thought that it was Lu Yuan’s prank.

“I have never seen those clips. But you can’t ask the host. He probably knows something about them.”

‘Reel animation movies? Uh… who would be so smart to use this kind of time-consuming and energy-consuming way to make those movies?’

Judging from common sense, the photographer determined that this was a prank made by Lu Yuan, so he simply gave a suggestion and then hung up the phone.
