Some time ago, there have been rumors on the Internet that the second season of "Tang Dynasty Chronicles" will be broadcast at the end of November. Some netizens who like this show believe this and begin to wait for the show with great anticipation.
But what I didn’t expect was that even though I waited until December, the second season of “Tang Dynasty Strange Stories” was not released.
Just when everyone felt that they had been cheated, they discovered that a major online movie called "The Legend of Chang'an" was launched on the video platform.
Although the name of this movie is very close to "Tang Dynasty Strange Stories", there is actually no relationship between the two. The only thing
andhave in common may be that both works are set in the Tang Dynasty.
Like many similar online movies, "The Legend of Chang'an" strives to exaggerate a weird atmosphere from the beginning.
In the film, there is a severe drought in Chang'an. Si Tianjian is responsible for praying for rain. After opening the altar, it does not rain, but tung oil begins to rain. At the same time, the legendary "Thousand-Headed Demon" suddenly appears, disrupting the prayer. Rain scene.
In order to find out the truth, the court released Mr. Dugu, who was supposed to be beheaded, and asked him to be responsible for investigating the matter.
Mr. Dugu asked Supervisor Goldman Sachs to tell the truth about his previous success in praying for rain. Goldman Sachs told him that he had bought a formula from a mage that could keep the black smoke from the explosion, and then used The Kongming Lantern rises into the air with water. When the Kongming Lantern shakes in the air, the water will fall down, giving people the feeling of rain.
On the day of praying for rain, someone knew Goldman Sachs's method of praying for rain and replaced the water in the Kongming Lantern with tung oil.
Mr. Dugu originally did not want to agree to help investigate the truth, but Goldman Sachs refuted the condition of Mr. Dugu's daughter's clues, so he could not refuse.
As we all know, in today's domestic film and television dramas, there cannot be strange powers and chaos, so naturally the "thousand-headed demon" in the film is also pretended to be someone.
In recent domestic suspense films and TV dramas, when encountering plots that are difficult to explain, the most common solution is to classify everything as "hallucination".
The hallucinogenic drug is usually datura.
This film is no exception. As soon as Mr. Dugu took action, he found out that everyone was poisoned by Datura that night, so they saw the "Thousand-Headed Demon".
As for how they were collectively poisoned, the heroine in the film gave the answer. It turned out that someone ground Datura into powder and mixed it into tung oil.
After knowing the murderer's method, the next step is to find who used Datura.
Mr. Dugu led his men and found out that mandala could only be purchased at the night market, so several people went to the night market to investigate.
In the night market, I met Ye Tianzi, who was in charge of the night market.
This Emperor Ye has the characteristics of a major online movie. He looks coquettish and dresses sexy, and his every move is full of charm and allure.
On the covers of major domestic online movies in recent years, there is usually such a character to attract attention, and it can also be regarded as a selling point of the film.
Ye Tianzi doesn't have much screen time. It feels like he just comes out to show off his charm and provide some material for the film's cover and promotional video.
Next, Mr. Dugu and his three men found the night market merchant who was selling datura.
The businessman said that the person who bought the most mandalas from him in the past year was Mr. Cui.
As a result, Mr. Cui became the biggest suspect of the "Thousand-Headed Demon".
Mr. Dugu led his men to the Cui family to collect evidence. Not only did they find a large number of datura flowers in the Cui family, they also found many women imprisoned by Mr. Cui in the darkroom.
These women were all brought into the house by Mr. Cui through unfair means. Even the heroine who had been following Mr. Dugu before was inexplicably arrested by Mr. Cui.
After finding Mandala, Mr. Cui became the mastermind of the "Thousand-headed Demon". This seemingly weird and difficult incident was easily investigated by Mr. Dugu.
Of course, anyone who has watched such a big movie knows that things cannot be that simple. After all, the progress bar below is just halfway through. If the truth is revealed now, what will happen next?
In addition, if you identify Mr. Cui as the "Thousand-Headed Demon" based on just a few mandala flowers, it is too childish no matter how you look at it.
Sure enough, Mr. Cui had just been arrested when his father showed up and captured the heroine. He used the heroine to blackmail Mr. Dugu and asked him to find a way to clear Mr. Cui's grievances within three hours.
I have to say that it is rare for a heroine to be able to hold back such a person. She had just been caught by the villain's son, and then by the villain's father. Within half an hour of her appearance, she was caught twice in a row.
However, when watching it, it is best not to have too many expectations. This big movie is really only slightly similar in name to "Tang Dynasty Strange Stories", and there is really no comparison in other aspects.
